Per this Lease, any renewal or extension of the Term at the “then current market rate” shall employ the definition contained in Exhibit C of “Fair Market Rate”
3.

6.Termination Option. Effective on the Expansion Premises Commencement Date, the following, “Termination Option”, shall be incorporated into Section Five of Exhibit G., of the Lease:
Tenant may elect to terminate its lease of the Expansion Premises (“Termination Option”) effective as of on the last day of the month that is sixty full months after the Expansion Premises Commencement Date (the “Early Termination Date”), by giving Landlord written notice (“Tenant’s Notice”) at least nine months prior to the Early Termination Date, provided that: (1) on or before the Early Termination Date, Tenant has paid Landlord all amounts due and owing under the Lease; and (2) Tenant pays to Landlord concurrently with Tenant’s Notice a termination fee equal to: (i) fifteen percent of Tenant’s remaining rental obligation for the lease of the Expansion Premises, plus (ii) the unamortized portion of Landlord’s Costs calculated by amortizing Landlord’s Costs over the Term on a daily basis, plus interest thereon at the rate of 9% per annum. “Landlord’s Costs” means Landlord’s costs of tenant improvement costs, the remainder of any amortized tenant improvements costs and brokerage commissions. Tenant’s right to exercise the Termination Option is conditioned on Tenant not being in default or assigned its interest in the Lease (unless the assignment is to an affiliate or subsidiary of Tenant) at the time of exercise of the Termination Option or on the Early Termination Date. If the Termination Option is timely exercised, Tenant will deliver possession of the Expansion Premises to Landlord on the Early Termination Date in accordance with the terms of the Lease and all other terms and provisions will apply as if the Lease had expired according to its terms, including Tenant’s obligation for payment of any expenses attributable to periods prior to the Early Termination Date at such time as such obligation is determined. If Tenant fails to timely give notice, Tenant will be deemed to have waived its right to terminate under this Paragraph.
