4. Extension Options. Section 2.04 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

"2.04 Option to Extend.

(a) Exercise of Extension Option. Provided Tenant is not in default (beyond applicable notice and grace periods) pursuant to any of the terms and conditions of this Lease, at the date of both the Extension Notice and the effective date of the Extension Option, Tenant shall have the option (the "Extension Option") to renew this Lease for an additional five (5) year period (the "Extended Term") commencing on the date following the Expiration Date upon the terms and conditions  contained  in this Section 2.04. To exercise the Extension Option, Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the "Extension Notice") of intent to exercise said Extension Option not less than nine (9) months prior to the end of the current Term of the Lease. The notice shall be given as provided in Article XXII hereof. In the event Tenant exercises the Extension Option, this Lease will terminate in its entirety at the end of the Extended Term and Tenant will have no further option to renew or extend the Term of this Lease.

(b) Procedures for Determining Prevailing Market Rate.

(i)
If Tenant timely exercises the Extension Option, not later than six (6) months prior to the commencement of the Extended Term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a good faith written proposal of  the Prevailing Market Rate (as defined below) for the Premises for the Extended Term. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord's proposal, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing that (i) Tenant accepts Landlord's proposal or (ii) Tenant rejects Landlord's proposal. If Tenant does not give Landlord a timely notice in response to Landlord's proposal, Landlord's proposal of Prevailing Market Rate for the Extended Term shall be deemed accepted by Tenant.

(ii)
If Tenant timely rejects Landlord's proposal, Landlord and Tenant shall first negotiate in good faith in an attempt to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extended Term. If Landlord and Tenant are able to agree within thirty (30) days following the earlier of (i) Landlord's receipt of Tenant' s notice rejecting Landlord's proposal or (ii) the expiration of the thirty (30) day period referred to in subparagraph (b)(i) above (the "Negotiation Period"), such agreement shall constitute a determination of Prevailing Market Rate for purposes of this Section. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rate during the Negotiation Period, then within thirty (30) days after expiration of the Negotiation Period, the parties shall meet and concurrently deliver to each other their respective written estimates of the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extended Term, supported by the reasons therefore (respectively, "Landlord's Determination" and "Tenant's Determination"). If either party fails to deliver its Determination in a timely manner, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the amount specified by the other party. If the higher of such Determinations is not more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of such Determinations, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the average of the two Determinations. If the Prevailing Market Rate is not resolved by exchange of the Determinations, the Prevailing Market Rate shall be determined as follows, each party being bound to its Determination and such Determination constituting the only two choices available to the Appraisal Panel (as hereinafter defined).



(iii)
Within thirty (30) days after the parties exchange Landlord's and Tenant's Determinations, the parties shall each appoint a neutral and impartial appraiser who shall be certified as an MAI or ASA appraiser and shall have at least ten (10) years' experience, immediately prior to his or her appointment, as a real estate appraiser of warehouse/industrial properties in the City and County where the Project is located. For purposes hereof, an "MAI" appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation  conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, if there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar), and an "ASA" appraiser means an individual who holds the Senior Member designation conferred by, and  is an independent member of, the American Society of Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, if there  is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar). If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within said thirty (30) day period, the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extended Term shall be the Determination of the other party who timely appointed an appraiser.

Landlord's and Tenant's appraisers shall work together in good faith to appoint a neutral or impartial third party appraiser within ten (I 0) days, and notify both Landlord and Tenant of such selection. Within five (5) days following notification of the identity of the third appraiser, Landlord and Tenant shall submit copies of Landlord's Determination and Tenant's Determination to the third appraiser. The three appraisers are referred to herein as the "Appraisal Panel." The Appraisal Panel, if it so elects, may conduct a hearing, at which Landlord and Tenant may each make supplemental oral and/or written presentations, with an opportunity for rebuttal by the other party and for questioning by the members of the Appraisal Panel. The Appraisal Panel shall then work together in good faith to decide which of the two Determinations more closely reflects the Prevailing Market Rate of the Premises for the Extended Tenn. Within forty-five (45) days following the appointment of the third appraiser, the Appraisal Panel, by majority vote, shall select either Landlord's Determination or Tenant's Determination as the Prevailing Market Rate of the Premises for the Extended Term, and shall have no right to propose a middle ground or to modify either of the two proposals or the provisions of this Lease. The Determination selected by the Appraisal Panel shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The decision of the Appraisal Panel shall be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in accordance with the provisions of Georgia law. In the event of the failure, refusal or inability of any member of the Appraisal Panel to act, a successor shall be appointed in the manner that applied to the selection of the member being replaced.

(iv)
Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by such party, and one-half of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser and the expenses incident to the proceedings of the Appraisal Panel (excluding attorneys' fees and similar expenses of the parties which shall be borne separately by each of the parties).

(c) Prevailing Market Rate. As used in this Lease, the phrase "PrevailinMarket  Rate" means  the amount that a landlord under no compulsion to lease the Premises, and a tenant under no compulsion to lease the Premises, would agree upon at arm's length as Base Rent for the Premises for the Extended Term, as of the commencement of the Extended Term. The Prevailing Market Rate shall be based upon non- sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity lease transactions recently entered into for space in the Building and in comparable buildings ("Comparison Leases") and may include periodic increases. Rental rates payable under Comparison Leases shall be adjusted to account for variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to: (i) the length of the Extended Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison Leases; (ii) rental structure, including additional rent, and taking into consideration any "base year" or "expense stops"; (iii) the size of the Premises compared to the size of the premises under the Comparison Leases; (iv) utility, location, number of docks and efficiencies of the Premises compared to the premises under the Comparison Leases; (v) the age and quality of construction of the Building; (vi) the value of existing leasehold improvements to Tenant; and (vii) the financial condition and credit history of Tenant compared to the tenants under the Comparison Leases. In determining the Prevailing Market Rate, no consideration shall be given to (i) any rental abatement period granted to tenants in Comparison Leases in connection with the design and construction of tenant improvements, (ii) whether Landlord or the landlords under Comparison Leases are paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with Tenant's exercise of the Extension Option or in connection with the Comparison Leases, and (iii) moving allowances paid.


(d) This Extension Option under this Section 2.04 is personal to the original Tenant under the Lease."
