5.Base Year. Effective as of November 1, 2022 and continuing for the remainder of the Term as extended by this Amendment, the Lease is revised so that (i) Base Year (Expenses) shall be Expenses for January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 and (ii) Base Year (Taxes) shall be Taxes for January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022.

7.Renewal Option. The renewal option set forth in Paragraph 6 of the Twelfth Amendment is deleted and is of no further force or effect. Instead, provided that (i) no uncured Event of Default then exists under the Lease, and (ii) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) of its intention to exercise its option by no later than February 1, 2024 (time being of the essence), Tenant shall have the option to renew the Lease for a fixed twelve (12) month term ending on October 31, 2025 with the Monthly Installment of Rent increased to $63,965.00 (calculated at the annual rental rate of $22.00 per square foot) and otherwise on the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease including the obligation to pay all additional rent, charges and other payments due under the Lease as set forth therein.

Upon exercise of this option, Tenant shall, if so requested by Landlord, execute an amendment to the Lease confirming the exercise of the option and the new Monthly Installment of Rent for the Premises during the renewal term. Xxxxxxxx’s failure to prepare or Xxxxxx’s failure to execute such amendment shall not affect the validity of the exercise of this option or alter Tenant’s obligations during the renewal term as determined hereby. This option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect if (a) Landlord terminates Tenant’s right to possession due to an Event of Default, or (b) Tenant subleases the Premises or assigns the

Lease, in each case other than to an Affiliate. Upon exercise of this renewal option Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Term of the Lease other than by agreement with Landlord in its sole discretion.
