NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby conclusively acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

1.                                       Effective as of the Effective Date, the Lease is amended as follows:

(a)                                  The term of the Lease is hereby extended for ten (10) years and seven (7) days commencing on January 8, 2007 through and including January 15, 2017 (the “Extended Term”), upon all of the same terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Lease, as hereby amended, except that: (i) the Fixed Rent shall be as follows:

(ii) the Expiration Date shall be deemed to be January 15, 2017 (the “Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of the Lease; (iii) the first sentence of Article 63 (Real Estate Taxes) of the Lease stating: “the amount of such real estate taxes for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1991 and ending June 30, 1992”, shall be deleted and replaced with the following language:  “the amount of such real estate taxes for the calendar year 2007”; and (iv) Article 87 (Renewal Option) of the Lease shall be deemed deleted in its entirety and be of no further force or effect so that the Tenant shall have no further option to renew or extend the Lease or the term thereof.

(b)                                 At any time after July 15, 2009, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to terminate this Lease prior to the Expiration Date by giving not less than six (6) months’ and not more than nine (9) months’ prior written notice to the other party of the exercise of its right to so terminate, stating the date (the “Accelerated Termination Date”) upon which the Extended Term of this Lease shall then terminate, provided however, in no event shall the Accelerated Termination Date be a date that occurs between November 15th and January 15th.  Provided such notice is delivered in compliance with the provisions of this paragraph 1(b), this Lease shall terminate as of 11:59 p.m. on the Accelerated Termination Date as if it were the Expiration Date as set forth herein.

(c)                                  Article 13 of the Lease shall be revised to permit Landlord access to the Demised Premises, during non-holiday business days before 11:00 a.m., for the purpose of showing the same to prospective tenants throughout the Extended Term of the Lease, upon reasonable notice to Tenant, provided that such access does not otherwise unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use or conduct of business in the Demised Premises.

2.                                       As a material consideration and inducement to Landlord to enter into this Agreement, Tenant has agreed to spend at least Three Hundred Thousand ($300,000) Dollars to refurbish, repair or otherwise make improvements to the Demised Premises by September 30, 2007, in compliance with the applicable terms and provisions of the Lease, including, without limitation, Articles 3 and 50 (the “New Alterations”).  Tenant shall produce paid bills and other proofs of payment reasonably satisfactory to Landlord to establish such expenditures by October 15, 2007.  To the extent such expenditures are not made by September 30, 2007, the portion of
