W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Landlord is the successor-in-interest to Investors and has acquired all of Investors' right, title and interest in, to and under the Lease;

WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease to reconfigure the Original Premises by leasing the entire third (3rd) floor of the North Tower of the Building, consisting of 24,056 square feet of Rentable Floor Area and more particularly shown on Exhibit A-4 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (hereinafter "Floor 3 North"), to release all of the space being leased by Tenant on Floor 3 South consisting of 17,301 square feet of Rentable Floor Area (hereinafter "Floor 3 South"), and to provide for certain other related matters, as are more particularly set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of Ten and No/100 Dollars ($10.00), the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree to amend the Lease as follows:

1.    Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meanings as given such terms in the Lease.

2.    Premises Expansion.

a.    Effective as of the earlier to occur of (i) the date Tenant occupies Floor 3 North or any portion thereof for the conduct of Tenant's business or (ii) January 1, 2013 (the "Fourth Amendment Reconfiguration Date" or the "FARD"), the Original Premises shall be deemed expanded to include Floor 3 North.  Floor 3 North is stipulated by Landlord and Tenant to have twenty-four thousand fifty-six (24,056) square feet of Rentable Floor Area, calculated using the "Standard Method for Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings," approved as of June 7, 1996 by the American National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-1996), and shall be leased by Tenant subject to and in accordance with all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, as amended hereby.

b.    Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the Original Premises shall be deemed contracted to exclude therefrom the portion of the Original Premises known as Floor 3 South, containing Seventeen Thousand Three Hundred One (17,301) square feet of Rentable Floor Area and more particularly shown as "Floor 3 South" on page 2 of Exhibit A-4, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.  Such contraction of the Original Premises shall be deemed effective as of the Fourth Amendment Reconfiguration Date.  From and after the Fourth Amendment Reconfiguration Date, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge, agree and stipulate that (i) the Premises shall contain one hundred ninety thousand nine hundred eighty-six (190,986) square feet of Rentable Floor Area, (ii) all references in the Lease to the "Premises" shall be deemed to refer to the Premises, as reconfigured pursuant to this Fourth Amendment, and (iii) for purposes of this Fourth Amendment, the difference in Rentable Floor Area in the amount of 6,755 square feet between Floor 3 North and Floor 3 South is sometimes referred to herein as the "Fourth Amendment Expansion Area").

1


 

c.    Tenant shall surrender Floor 3 South to Landlord by no later than sixteen (16) calendar days following the Fourth Amendment Reconfiguration Date (hereinafter the "Surrender Date") in accordance with the Lease, the same as if the Surrender Date were the Expiration Date of the Lease Term with respect to the Floor 3 South.  Thereafter, Tenant shall have no further right, claim or interest with respect to Floor 3 South and shall remove all its equipment and property therefrom. Any property not removed prior to the Surrender Date shall be deemed abandoned, and Landlord shall be authorized to retain such property, or any portion thereof, as Landlord's own property or to dispose of such property in any manner Landlord deems appropriate, in Landlord's sole discretion.  Tenant shall remain liable for any and all cost relating to any removal or disposition of any such property and releases Landlord of any and all liability in connection therewith.  Tenant's failure to surrender Floor 3 South to Landlord on or before the Surrender Date shall constitute an event of default by Tenant and, in addition to Landlord's other remedies set forth in this Lease, Tenant's occupancy of Floor 3 South shall be a tenancy at sufferance subject to summary eviction as provided in O.C.G.A. §44-7-50 et. seq., and Tenant shall be required to pay monthly Rent for Floor 3 South (in addition to monthly Base Rental for the Premises that Tenant shall continue to lease hereunder) pursuant to Paragraph 31(a) of the Lease.  Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Rent for Floor 3 South from and after the Fourth Amendment Reconfiguration Date, except as provided hereinabove.  The provisions of this subparagraph shall survive the partial termination of the Lease with respect to Floor 3 South.
