In the event that the parties cannot agree on the Base Rent prior to one hundred eighty (180) days before the end of the initial twenty (20) year Term, each party shall provide the other party with written notice (“Rent Notice”) of its determination of the fair market rental value (determined on a square footage or other appropriate basis customarily used for comparable properties as compared with such rental value being obtained on other premises for similar use in the Greater Seattle area).
