3. Base Rent and Operating Expenses. Tenant shall continue to pay all Base Rent, Operating Expenses and any other obligations due under the Lease through the Termination Date.

After the Termination Date, Tenant shall have no further rights of any kind with respect to the Premises.

In addition, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Lease, 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 or for violations of any governmental requirements or requirements of applicable law. Nothing herein shall excuse Tenant or Landlord from their respective obligations under the Lease, as modified by this Agreement, prior to the Termination Date.
6. Intentionally Omitted.
7. Security Deposit. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that, under the terms of the Lease, Landlord is currently holding a Security Deposit in the form of a Letter of Credit in the amount of $630,901.50. Following the Termination Date, Landlord shall refund the portion of the Security Deposit to which Tenant is entitled under Section 6 of the original Lease to Tenant in accordance with the terms of Section 6 of the Lease.
8. Removal of Personal Property. Tenant shall remove Tenant’s Property and any other personal property of Tenant from the Premises on or before the Termination Date in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Any Tenant’s Property or other personal property of Tenant remaining in the Premises after the Termination Date, if any, is hereby agreed to be abandoned by Tenant and may be disposed of by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, without obligation or liability of any kind to Tenant.
