If they are unable to agree within 45 days after the appointment of the second appraiser, they shall attempt to select a third person meeting the qualifications stated in the immediately preceding paragraph within 15 days after the last day the two appraisers are given to determine the fair market rent. If they are unable to agree on the third person to act as appraiser within said 15 day period, the third person shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association, upon the application of Landlord or Tenant to the office of the Association nearest the Building. The person appointed to act as appraiser by the Association shall be required to meet the qualifications stated in the immediately preceding paragraph.

In deciding the dispute, the appraisers shall act in accordance with the American Arbitration Rules for the Real Estate Industry then in force of the American Arbitration Association, subject however, to such limitations as may be placed on them by the provisions of this lease. After the fixed rent for the Additional Space has been determined by the appraiser or appraisers and the appraiser or appraisers shall have notified the parties, at the request of either party, both parties shall execute and deliver to each other an amendment of this lease stating the fixed rent for the Additional Space. If the fixed rent for said Additional Space has not been agreed to or established prior to the incorporation of said Additional Space in the demised premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord an annual rent ("Temporary Rent") which Temporary Rent on a per square foot basis shall be equal to the Fixed rent, on a per square foot basis, then being paid by Tenant for the Demised Premises. Thereafter, if the parties shall agree upon a fixed rent, or the Fixed rent shall be established upon the determination of the fair market rent by the appraiser or appraisers, at a rate at variance with the Temporary Rent (i) if such Fixed rent is greater than the Temporary Rent, Tenant shall promptly pay to Landlord the difference between the Fixed rent determined by agreement or the appraisal process and the Temporary Rent, or (ii) if such fixed rent is less than the Temporary Rent, Landlord shall credit to Tenant's subsequent monthly installments of fixed rent the difference between the Temporary Rent and the fixed rent determined by agreement or the appraisal process. In determining the fair market rent for said Additional Space, the appraiser or appraisers shall be required to take into account the rentals at which leases are then being concluded for comparable space in the Building and in comparable buildings in the County of Rockland, New York. In no event shall the fixed rent for the Additional Space, on a per square foot basis, be less than the fixed rent for the Demised Premises, on a per square foot basis. B. The option granted to Tenant under this Article 49 may be exercised only by Tenant, its permitted successors and assigns, and not by any subtenant or any successor to the interest of Tenant by reason of any action under the Bankruptcy Code, or by any public officer, custodian, receiver, United States Trustee, trustee or liquidator of Tenant or substantially all of Tenant's property. Tenant shall have no right to exercise any of such options subsequent to the date Landlord shall have the right to give the notice of termination referred to in Article 32. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no right to exercise the option granted to Tenant hereunder if, at the time it gives notice of such election (i) Tenant shall not be in occupancy of substantially all of the Demised Premises or (ii) the Demised Premises or any part thereof shall be the subject of a sublease. If Tenant shall have elected to exercise its option hereunder, such election shall be deemed withdrawn if, at any time after the giving of notice of such election and prior to the occupancy of the Additional Space, Tenant shall sublease all or any part of the Demised Premises.”
