The Lease Term for the Expansion Space shall commence on the Expansion Effective Date and end on the Termination Date (i.e. June 30, 1013) unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Lease, as amended hereby. The Expansion Space is subject to all the terms and conditions of the Lease except as expressly modified herein and except that Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any allowances, abatements or other financial concessions granted with respect to the Original Premises unless such concessions are expressly provided for herein with respect to the Expansion Space.
