The parties agree the renewal term shall run from March 1, 2012 through February 28, 2017.
2. Consolidation. Embassy and Red Bird agree the original Lease Agreement, the First Lease Expansion Addendum, and the Second Lease Expansion Addendum all have coterminous terms and options, and therefore all such Leases (and leased space) shall be renewed for the term set forth above.
