the Original Lease and Amendment No. 2) for an additional period of
sixty (60) months commencing March 1, 1999 through February 29, 2004

3. The Base Rent for the Lease Extension Period shall be $9.02 per square

4. Tenant shall have a first option to renew the Lease for a period of

2009). Tenant may, through the delivery of written notice to Landlord
(the "First Notice of Exercise"), delivered not later than August 31,
2002, renew this Lease for five (5) years, upon all the same terms and

Upon delivery of the First Notice of Exercise, the parties shall
proceed in good faith to negotiate the market rental for Tenant's
occupancy of the Premises. If no agreement is reached as to such
rental within twenty (20) days after the delivery of the First Notice
of Exercise, such rent shall be determined in accordance with the

44 of the Original Lease.
Notwithstanding the provision of the preceding paragraphs, Tenant
shall have said option rights provided that Tenant has not been in
default of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease.
5. Tenant shall have a second option to renew the Lease for five (5)
years (for the period March 1, 2009 through February 28, 2014) in the
event Tenant exercises its first option as outlined in Article 4 of
this Amendment (the "Second Renewal Option"). In the event there has
been no default by Tenant, Tenant may, through the delivery of written
notice to Landlord (the "Second Notice of Exercise"), delivered not
later than August 31, 2007, renew this Lease for five (5) years, upon
all the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Lease;

during the option granted pursuant to this Paragraph 5 shall be 44,788
square feet; and (b) the rental rate shall be at the then current
market rates; and (c) in no event shall the Base Rent in the option
term be less than the Base Rent paid in the year immediately preceding
the second renewal option period.
Upon delivery of the Second Notice of Exercise, the parties shall
proceed in good faith to negotiate the market rental for Tenant's
occupancy of the Premises. If no agreement is reached as to such
rental within twenty (20) days after the delivery of the Second Notice
of Exercise, such rent shall be determined in accordance with the
appraisal procedure (the "Appraisal Procedure") outlined in Paragraph
44 of the Original Lease.
Notwithstanding the provision of the preceding paragraphs, Tenant
shall have said option rights provided that Tenant has not been in
default of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease.
