C. Tenant desires to extend the term of the Lease for a period of 18 months, and Landlord is willing to extend the term of the Lease on the terms herein set forth.
D. Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease to, among other things, remove the Reduction Space from the Premises demised under the Lease and to extend the term of the Lease.
AGREEMENT
Now, therefore, the parties hereto agree that the Lease is amended as follows:
1. Premises. Effective as of April 1, 2010, the Premises demised under the Lease are hereby reduced to exclude the Reduction Space, consisting for all purposes of the Lease of 7,800 rentable square feet, such that the Premises shall thereafter be as described on Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

2. Term. The Term of the Lease, as defined in the Lease, shall be extended by 18 months to expire, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the Lease or this Second Amendment on September 30, 2011. As Landlord and Tenant intend that there shall be no further right to extend the Term, Section 2(d) of the Lease is hereby deleted.
3. Early Termination Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon at least 90 days’ written notice to the other (a “Termination Notice”), either Landlord or Tenant may cause the Term

of the Lease to expire on a date earlier than that set forth in Section 2, above. Upon valid delivery of a Termination Notice, the Lease shall be deemed modified such that the expiration of the Term shall be the date for such expiration set forth in the Termination Notice, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms hereof or of the Lease.
4. Termination and Surrender. Tenant represents and warrants that it has vacated or will vacate the Reduction Space on or before March 31, 2010 (the “Termination Date”) in complete compliance with Section 24 of the Lease as if, for the purposes of said Section 24, the Reduction Space were all of the Premises. Tenant voluntarily surrenders all rights of possession of the Reduction Space as of the Termination Date. After the Termination Date, Tenant shall have no rights of any kind with respect to the Reduction Space. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in all matters, as applicable, relating to (i) the surrender or revocation of all licenses of Tenant relating to the Reduction Space; and (ii) all other matters related to restoring the Reduction Space to the condition required by the Lease.
5. No Further Obligations. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord and Tenant are excused as of the Termination Date from any further obligations with respect to the Reduction Space, excepting only such obligations under the Lease which are, by their terms, intended to survive termination of the Lease, and as otherwise provided herein. In addition, nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or terminate any common law or statutory rights Landlord may have with respect to Tenant in connection with any Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Lease) or for violations of any governmental requirements or any requirements of applicable law. Nothing herein shall excuse Tenant from its obligations under the Lease prior to the Termination Date.
6. Conveyance and Removal of Personal Property. As of the Termination Date, Tenant shall leave in place in the Reduction Space all work stations present therein as of the date hereof (the “Work Stations”), the same to be in good order, condition and repair, and Tenant agrees that, as of the Termination Date it shall be deemed to have conveyed to Landlord good title to the Work Stations. Tenant represents and warrants that it has and (until conveyance to Landlord of the same) shall retain good, clear and indefeasible title to the Work Stations, not subject to any lien and that it shall, at the request of Landlord, execute all documents reasonably requested by Landlord with respect to the conveyance of the Work Stations and shall defend Landlord against any claim made by any party with respect thereto. Except as set forth above in this Section 6, Tenant agrees that the Reduction Space shall be surrendered free of the personal property of Tenant. Any personal property of Tenant remaining in the Reduction Space as of the Termination Date shall be deemed to be abandoned by Tenant, and may be disposed of by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, without obligation or liability to Tenant.
7. Asbestos.

EXHIBIT B TO LEASE
Notification Of The Presence Of Asbestos Containing Materials
This notification provides certain information about asbestos within or about the Premises at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX (“Building”).
Historically, asbestos was commonly used in building products used in the construction of buildings across the country. Asbestos-containing building products were used because they are fire-resistant and provide good noise and temperature insulation. Because of their prevalence, asbestos-containing materials, or ACMs, are still sometimes found in buildings today.
An asbestos survey of the Building has determined that ACMs and materials that might contain asbestos, referred to as presumed asbestos-containing materials or PACMs, are present within or about the Premises. The surveys found ACMs and PACMs at the following location(s) in or about the Premises:
Material Description |
Material Location | |
Sink basin coating | Second, third, and fourth floors | |
12” beige floor tile and mastic | Second floor, suite #208 | |
Asphalt-based roofing (assumed below newer rubber membrane roof) | Throughout roof |
The ACMs and PACMs described above were observed to be in good condition and may be managed in place. Because ACMs and PACMs are present and may continue to be present within or about the Building, we have hired an independent environmental consulting firm to prepare an operations and maintenance program (“O&M Program”). The O&M Program is designed to minimize the potential of any harmful asbestos exposure to any person within or about the Building. The O&M Program includes a description of work methods to be taken in order to maintain any ACMs or PACMs within or about the Building in good condition and to prevent any significant disturbance of such ACMs or PACMs. Appropriate personnel receive regular periodic training on how to properly administer the O&M Program.
The O&M Program describes the risks associated with asbestos exposure and how to prevent such exposure through appropriate work practices. ACMs and PACMs generally are not thought to be a threat to human health unless asbestos fibers are released into the air and inhaled. This does not typically occur unless (1) the ACMs are in a deteriorating condition, or (2) the ACMs have been significantly disturbed (such as through abrasive cleaning, or maintenance or renovation activities). If inhaled, asbestos fibers can accumulate in the lungs and, as exposure increases, the risk of disease (such as asbestosis or cancer) increases. However, measures to minimize exposure, and consequently minimize the accumulation of asbestos fibers, reduce the risks of adverse health effects.
The O&M Program describes a number of activities that should be avoided in order to prevent a release of asbestos fibers. In particular, you should be aware that some of the activities which may present a health risk include moving, drilling, boring, or otherwise disturbing ACMs. Consequently, such activities should not be attempted by any person not qualified to handle ACMs.
