3.Lease Modifications. (a) Each of Landlord and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant did not exercise the First Expansion Option and, accordingly, the First Expansion Option is expired.
(b) Section 10.02 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“10.02 Second Expansion Option. (a) Provided that on the date Tenant exercises the Second Expansion Option (i) this Lease has not been terminated, (ii) Landlord has not delivered to Tenant a notice electing to terminate this Lease in accordance with Section 6.05 which remains in effect and (iii) Tenant is a Coach Tenant or a successor of a Coach Tenant by assignment of this Lease in accordance with Article 5, Tenant shall have the option (the “Second Expansion Option”) to lease the entire 25th floor of the Building (the “Second Expansion Space”). The Second Expansion Option shall be exercisable by Tenant giving Landlord notice thereof (the “Second Expansion Notice”) on or prior to June 29, 2025 (time being of the essence).
(b) If Tenant timely gives the Second Expansion Notice, then (i) on or before the later of (x) the date that is 90 days after the giving of the Second Expansion Notice and (y) the date that is 270 days before the first day of the Second ES Delivery Period, Landlord

EXHIBIT 10.1
shall give to Tenant a notice designating (A) the date during the Second ES Delivery Period on which Landlord expects that the Second Expansion Space will become Available, subject to holdover by the existing occupant and Unavoidable Delay (such date, the “Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date”) and (B) the rentable square footage of the Second Expansion Space and (ii) subject to Section 10.02(d) below, on the Second ES Inclusion Date, the Second Expansion Space shall become part of the Office Premises and the Premises, without any further act on the part of Landlord or Tenant and upon all of the terms and conditions of this Lease applicable to the Office Premises, except that, from and after the Second ES Inclusion Date:
(i) Fixed Rent shall be increased by the Second ES Fair Market Rent for the Second Expansion Space and the rentable square footage of the Premises shall be adjusted by adding the rentable square footage of the Second Expansion Space (which shall be determined in accordance with the Measurement Standard);
(ii) Each of Tenant’s Tax Share and Tenant’s Operating Share shall be appropriately increased (provided that the method of calculating the numerator shall be the same as the method of calculating the denominator at such time of calculation);
(iii) Tenant shall be entitled to any rent abatement and/or work allowance determined in accordance with Section 10.02(f) below; and
(iv) Other than as expressly set forth in Section 10.02(a) and this Section 10.02(b), Landlord shall not be required to perform any work, to pay any other work allowance or any other amount, or to render any services to make the Building or the Second Expansion Space ready for Tenant’s use or occupancy or to provide any abatement of Fixed Rent or Additional Charges, and Tenant shall accept the Second Expansion Space in its “as is” condition on the Second ES Inclusion Date; provided, that the Second Expansion Space shall be delivered in the condition to be negotiated in good faith by Landlord and Tenant, which shall include, at a minimum, the core bathroom finishes and all foundations, columns, girders, beams, supports, and all support and other features necessary for the installation of raised flooring, as constructed and existing therein on the date hereof.
(c) The “Second ES Delivery Period” means the 12-month period commencing July 1, 2026 and ending on June 30, 2027.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord reasonably anticipates that the Second Expansion Space will become vacant sooner than the first day of the Second ES Delivery Period due to a default by the existing tenant of the Second Expansion Space or Landlord’s acceptance of an early surrender of the Second Expansion Space from the existing tenant as a result of such tenant’s bankruptcy or default, then the Second ES Inclusion Date may be up to six (6) months earlier than the first day of the Second ES Delivery
23085973.5
EXHIBIT 10.1
Period, provided that Landlord delivers at least one hundred twenty (120) days prior notice of such earlier date to Tenant. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Second Expansion Space to Tenant on or before the Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date, including the institution and prosecution of holdover or other appropriate proceedings against any occupant of the applicable portion of the Second Expansion Space. If Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Second Expansion Space to Tenant for any reason on or before the Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date, Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant therefor and this Lease shall not in any way be impaired (unless such inability is due to a voluntary agreement by Landlord to let the existing occupant remain in the applicable portion of the Second Expansion Space for any period on or after the Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date); provided, that if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Second Expansion Space to Tenant on or prior to the date which is 270 days after the Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date, then, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy therefor, Tenant may thereafter cancel the Second Expansion Notice by giving notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to cancel the Second Expansion Notice on the date set forth in Tenant’s notice, which date for cancellation shall be no later than 30 days after Tenant’s delivery of such notice and which Tenant’s notice shall be given not less than 270 days nor more than 300 days after the Anticipated Second ES Inclusion Date and, if the Second ES Inclusion Date shall not occur on or before the date set forth in Tenant’s notice for such cancellation, then upon the date so set forth for such cancellation, the Second Expansion Notice with respect to the Second Expansion Space shall be deemed canceled and terminated and neither party shall have any further liabilities or obligations to the other with respect to the Second Expansion Option or Second Expansion Notice with respect to the Second Expansion Space. This Section 10.02(d) constitutes “an express provision to the contrary” within the meaning of said Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law and any other law of like import now or hereafter in effect.
(e) Promptly after the occurrence of the Second ES Inclusion Date, Landlord and Tenant shall confirm the occurrence thereof, the inclusion of the Second Expansion Space in the Premises and the rentable square footage of the Second Expansion Space by executing an instrument reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant; provided, that failure by Landlord or Tenant to execute such instrument shall not affect the inclusion of the applicable portion of the Second Expansion Space in the Premises in accordance with this Section 10.02.
(f) “Second ES Fair Market Rent” means 95% of the fixed annual rent that a willing lessee would pay and a willing lessor would accept for the Second Expansion Space on the date that is one (1) year prior to the first day of the Second ES Delivery Period, taking into account all relevant factors (including, without limitation, the location of the Second Expansion Space, the Class A classification of the Building and the date on which construction thereof was completed, any additional rent that would be payable by Tenant in respect of PILOT Payments, Impositions, Taxes (taking into account any burn-off or loss of any tax abatements and any reset of real estate taxes occurring during the Renewal Term) and Operating Expenses in respect of the Second Expansion Space, the applicable delivery condition of the Second Expansion Space and the cost (if any) to Tenant of demolishing any existing leasehold improvements therein, and all other relevant terms and conditions of this Lease). If Tenant timely exercises the Second Expansion Option, the Second ES Fair Market Rent shall be

determined in accordance with the provisions of Sections 9.02(c) and 9.02(d) hereof; provided, that (i) all references in said Sections 9.02(c) and 9.02(d) to “Fair Market Rent” shall be deemed to refer to “Second ES Fair Market Rent” and (ii) in conjunction with, and as a component of, the determination of Second ES Fair Market Rent, Landlord and Tenant shall establish the amount of any rent abatement or work allowance to which Tenant shall be entitled for the Second Expansion Space, if any, based on the amount of any rent abatement or work allowance that a willing lessee and a willing lessor would accept for the Second Expansion Space, taking into account all relevant factors (including, without limitation, the amount of the Second ES Fair Market Rent and the terms set forth in Sections 10.02(a) and 10.02(b) and this Section 10.02(f)). Each party shall indicate its determination of the amount of any rent abatement and/or work allowance to which Tenant should be entitled in connection with the leasing of the Second Expansion Space in Landlord’s Determination or Tenant’s Determination, as applicable.
(g) If the final determination of the Second ES Fair Market Rent shall not be made on or before the applicable Second ES Inclusion Date, then, pending such final determination, Tenant shall pay, as Fixed Rent for the Second Expansion Space, an amount equal to the average of Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination. If, based upon the final determination of Second ES Fair Market Rent, the Fixed Rent payments made by Tenant for the Second Expansion Space were (x) greater than the Second ES Fair Market Rent, Landlord shall credit (i) the amount of such excess and (ii) interest on such excess at the Base Rate from the date paid until credited, against future installments of Fixed Rent and/or Additional Charges payable by Tenant under this Lease and (y) less than the Second ES Fair Market Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days after such final determination an amount equal to (i) the deficiency and (ii) interest on such deficiency at the Base Rate from the date such unpaid amount should have been paid until paid by Tenant.

The approximately 50% of the rentable square footage of the 24th floor of the Building designated by Landlord in the Third ES Response Notice to be included in the Third Expansion Space shall (A) be configured in a commercially reasonable manner, (B) constitute a marketable unit of space, (C) have entry doors at the elevator lobby and (D) be a continuous unit of space without any barriers or partitions within such space; the remaining rentable square footage of such floor shall be configured in a commercially reasonable manner, constitute a marketable unit of space and have entry doors at the elevator lobby.

(iv) Other than as expressly set forth in Section 10.03(a) and this Section 10.03(b), Landlord shall not be required to perform any work, to pay any other work allowance or any other amount, or to render any services to make the Building or the Third Expansion Space ready for Tenant’s use or occupancy or to provide any abatement of Fixed Rent or Additional Charges, provided that, unless otherwise agreed by Tenant, Landlord shall deliver such space in shell-and-core form and such space shall include, at a minimum, the core bathroom finishes and all foundations, columns, girders, beams, supports, and all support and other features necessary for the installation of raised flooring, as constructed and existing therein on the date hereof.
