ADDENDUM A
(THIS ADDENDUM AMENDS THE LEASE DATED BY LESSEE 10/27/95)
APOLLO INTERNATIONAL OF DELAWARE COMMERCIAL LEASE
AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, the Lessee desires to lease additional space in the South
Hillsborough Office Complex and the Lessor desire to rent same, the following
terms and agreements are revised and hereby agreed to and the previous lease
with Lessor and Lessee is hereby amended.
TERM: Commence on April 1, 1996 and continue until March 31, 1999. The
leased area for this term is a net rentable area of 1,119 square feet. This
area was formally known as the ESM and Presbyterian Foundation areas and is room
numbers, 212 and 214. The additional rent for this area on a monthly basis is
$979.13 per month plus applicable Florida sales tax and is based on an annual
rental rate of $10.50 per square foot. This additional amount will commence on
April 1, 1996 and continue until March 31, 1999.
In addition to the above named space, the Lessee desires to rent the
space formally known as the Xxxxxxx and D&E space (room 201A) which contains
an additional area of 2,220 square feet of net rentable area. The term of
this particular area shall commence on May 1, 1996 and continue until March
31, 1999. The rent for this space is calculated as 2,220 square feet of net
rentable area times $10.50 per year and is divided by 12 months and equals an
additional monthly amount of $1,942.50 plus applicable Florida sales tax.
The former lease dated October 27, 1994 remains at the same monthly rate for
the same space as previously rented but the term is changed to expire with
the other leased areas which is March 31, 1999. The former leased area has
been recalculated by computer and is 2,292 square feet of net rentable space
where as the lease was for 2,193 square feet. However, no change in the
original lease is being made.
WHEREAS, the Lessor is desirous of being part of the Lessee's corporation
as a stockholder and whereas the Lessee is desirous of reducing the monthly
rental expenditure, it is therefore agreed that in consideration of the Lessee
giving the Lessor 2,000 shares of Apollo International common stock at an amount
of $10.00 per share for a total of $20,000.00, the Lessor will reduce the rent
by $555.56 per month. Since the term of the lease is 36 months, the monthly
amount to be subtracted is therefore $20,000 divided by 36 months which equals
$555.56 per month. Therefore, the following schedule of payments shall commence
on April 1, 1996.
1) Amount due for lease signed 10/27/95 by Lessee $1,900.00
plus sales tax = $2,023.50
2) Former ESM & Presbyterian space (room 212 & 214) 1,119
square feet at $979.13 plus sales tax = $1,126.00
Subtotal rent due by 4/5/96: $3,149.50
Less monthly credit for stock (555.56)
---------
ACTUAL RENT DUE 4/5/96: $2,593.94
---------
3) Former Xxxxxxx and D&E space (room 201A) 2,220
square feet at $1,942.50 plus sales tax = $2,068.76
Subtotal rent due 5/5/96 and thereafter = $5,218.26
Less monthly credit for stock (555.56)
---------
ACTUAL RENT DUE 5/5/96 AND AFTER $4,662.70
