NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Lease is hereby amended and the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
1. Reduction Space.

The parties agree that the remaining balance of the tenant improvement allowance due from Landlord to Tenant is $92,508.00 (based on $6.00 per rentable square foot multiplied by 15,418 rentable square feet).
2. Base Rent. From and after the Effective Date and continuing thereafter up to and throughout the remainder of Lease Term, Tenant shall continue to pay Base Rent for the Premises under the same terms and conditions as set forth Paragraph 2 of the Tenth Amendment, except that such Base Rent shall be based upon 15,418 rentable square feet of space.

3. Tenant's Share. As of the Effective Date, Tenant's Share (as defined in Paragraph 1.1.3 of Exhibit "B" to the Fourth Amendment) shall exclude the Reduction Space for purposes of calculating such percentage. Tenant's Share shall be 3.57% as of the Effective Date.
4. Construction Costs. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the separation of the Reduction Space from the Original Premises, including, without limitation, costs of constructing a demising wall, correction of code violations resulting from the division of the Premises, and the cost of separating the electricity, plumbing and other building systems. To the extent additional common corridors are required due to the separation of the Premises, Landlord and Tenant will each be responsible for one half (1/2) of the total costs thereof. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all of such expenses within thirty (30) days of demand.
5. Right to Negotiate. Pursuant to Paragraph 6(f) of the Tenth Amendment, Tenant agrees that it shall not lease any space in any other building in Atlanta, Georgia without first providing Landlord with the right to lease to Tenant similar space on the same economic terms and conditions of a new lease at another building.
6. Modifications and Deletions. Paragraph 5 of the Tenth Amendment (Termination Option), and Paragraph 7 of the Tenth Amendment (Right of First Offer) are hereby deleted in their entirety and are of no further force or effect.
7. Brokers. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that neither it nor its officers or agents nor anyone acting on its behalf has dealt with any real estate broker other than Hines Properties, Inc. who represented Landlord and CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx who represented Tenant in the negotiating or making of this Amendment, and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord, its agents, employees, partners, directors, shareholders and independent contractors harmless from all liabilities, costs, demands, judgments, settlements, claims, and losses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, incurred by Landlord in conjunction with any such claim or claims of any other broker or brokers claiming to have interested Tenant in the Building or Premises or claiming to have caused Tenant to enter into this Amendment.
8. No Defaults; Ratifications. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that there are, as of the date hereof, regardless of the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, no defaults or breaches on the part of Landlord or Tenant under the Lease, except Landlord does not waive any claims with respect to those certain disputed amounts for accounts receivable due under the Lease which are being discussed with Tenant. Landlord and Tenant hereby affirm that as of the date hereof the Lease is in full force and effect, that the Lease has not been modified or amended (except as provided in this Amendment) and that all of Landlord's obligations accrued to date have been performed. Landlord and Tenant each hereby ratifies the provisions of the Lease on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns as to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease as amended hereby. Landlord and Tenant further agree to fulfill all of its obligations under the Lease as amended hereby to the other throughout the remainder of the Lease Term.
9. Capitalized Terms. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Lease.
10. Binding Effect. This Amendment shall not be valid and binding on Landlord and Tenant unless and until it has been completely executed by and delivered to both parties.
