Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000.
WITNESSETH:
A. Sublandlord is the tenant under that certain Property Lease dated March 13, 1998, with
Waterfront Associates, LLC (“Landlord”), as landlord, covering Xxxxxxxx Xx. 0, Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
Center, 00 Xx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (the “Building”), as amended by that certain
First Amendment to Lease dated April 29, 1998, that Second Amendment to Lease dated April 21,
1999, and that Third Amendment to Lease dated July 30, 1999 (collectively, the Property Lease and
amendments thereto are the “Lease”).
B. Under the terms and conditions of that certain Sublease dated as of March 3, 2006 (the
“Original Sublease”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Sublease dated September
25, 2006 (collectively, the “Sublease”), Subtenant subleased from Sublandlord approximately 26,464
rentable square feet of space located on the third floor of the Building (the “Existing
Premises”), which Existing Premises is more particularly described in the Sublease as the
Premises.
C. Under the terms and conditions of the Sublease, Subtenant desires to sublease additional
space on the third floor of the Building, which additional space contains
approximately 4,344 rentable square feet of space and is more particularly depicted on Exhibit
A, attached hereto and incorporated herein (the “Additional Premises”); and Sublandlord has
agreed to sublease such Additional Premises to Subtenant on the terms and conditions of the
Sublease, as modified herein.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and for other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Sublandlord and Subtenant agree as follows:
1. Additional Premises. Conditioned upon receipt by Sublandlord of Landlord’s
written consent executed in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B,
Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant, and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord, the
Additional Premises on the terms and conditions of the Sublease, as modified hereby; accordingly,
from and after the Effective Date (hereinafter defined), the term “Premises” shall refer
collectively to the Existing Premises and the Additional Premises; and, except as otherwise
provided herein, Subtenant’s Share shall be increased to 30%, which is the percentage obtained by
dividing the number of rentable square feet in the Premises (30,808) by the number of rentable
square feet in the Building (102,816). Subtenant accepts the Additional Premises in their “AS-IS”
condition, and Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any demolition work or tenant-finish
work

therein or to provide any allowances therefor. Sublandlord and Subtenant stipulate that the
number of rentable square feet in the Existing Premises, the Additional Premises, and the
Building is correct.
2. Term for Additional Premises. The term for the Additional Premises shall begin on
the Effective Date and shall expire on the Expiration Date as set forth in Section 2,3 of the
Original Sublease. As used herein, the “Effective Date” shall mean the earlier of (a) the date on
which Subtenant occupies any portion of the Additional Premises and begins conducting business
therein, or (b) April 1, 2007; provided, if Sublandlord is unable to deliver possession of the
Additional Premises to Subtenant by the date stated in the preceding clause (b), then Sublandlord
shall not be in default hereunder or be liable for damages therefor, and Subtenant shall accept
possession of the Additional Premises on the date when Sublandlord tenders possession thereof to
Subtenant (which date will then be defined as the Effective Date).
Subtenant shall execute and deliver to Sublandlord, within ten days after Sublandlord has
requested the same, a letter confirming (i) the Effective Date, and (ii) that Subtenant has
accepted the Additional Premises.
3. Rent for Additional Premises. The annual fixed rent due under the Sublease for
the Additional Premises shall be $60,816.00, payable in equal monthly installments of $5,068.00 per
month, beginning on April 1, 2007. Thus, commencing on April 1, 2007, the total monthly fixed rent
due under the Sublease for the Premises shall be $35,942,67.
4. Security Deposit. Contemporaneously with the execution hereof, and as a
condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord an
additional $5,068.00 to be held as part of the Security Deposit under the Sublease.
5. Right of First Offer. The Right of First Offer set forth in Section 5 of the First
Amendment to Sublease dated September 25, 2006, is hereby deleted.
6. Termination by Subtenant. Section 7 of the First Amendment to Sublease dated
September 25, 2006, is hereby deleted in its entirety and shall have no further force or effect.
The following provision is hereby inserted in its place:
Provided that Subtenant is not in default when Subtenant delivers the early
termination notice or on the Cancellation Date, Subtenant may, at its sole option,
terminate this Sublease effective as of November 30, 2011 (the “Cancellation Date”).
To exercise such termination right, Subtenant must, no later than February 28, 2011,
give notice thereof to Sublandlord together with Subtenant’s payment to Sublandlord
of One Hundred Ninety-Four Thousand Dollars ($194,000.00) (the “Cancellation Fee”)
in lawful money of the United States of America. As a condition to the effectiveness
of Subtenant’s cancellation right, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord prior to the
Cancellation Date any past-due amounts then outstanding under the Sublease. If
Subtenant fails timely to deliver the Cancellation Fee or the cancellation notice or
is otherwise unable to comply with or exercise this cancellation option, then
Subtenant’s right to cancel this
Page 2 of 7
Sublease under this section shall expire; time is of the essence with respect
thereto.
7. Parking. Section 5.6 of the Original Sublease is hereby deleted and replaced
with the following:
Subtenant shall have the non-exclusive right, together with the other tenants and occupants
of the Building and other buildings comprising Waterfront Village Center and their
employees, agents, licensees, and invitees, to use the parking areas servicing the Building
(as reasonably designated by Landlord) for the purpose of vehicular parking for Subtenant’s
Representatives, all without additional charge; provided however that Subtenant’s
Representatives shall not occupy more than an aggregate of one hundred and thirty five
(135) parking spaces at any time. If, for any reason, Sublandlord is unable to provide all
or any portion of the parking spaces to which Subtenant is entitled hereunder, then
Subtenant shall have no claims against Sublandlord because of Sublandlord’s failure or
inability to provide Subtenant with such parking spaces. Sublandlord shall not be
responsible for enforcing Subtenant’s parking rights against any third parties. Subtenant
shall cause Subtenant’s Representatives to comply with all reasonable rules and regulations
that Sublandlord and/or Landlord may promulgate with respect to parking in the parking
areas, including without limitation, a system of stickers, access cards or other system
intended to regulate and control access to such parking areas.
8. Brokerage. Sublandlord and Subtenant each warrant to the other that it has
not dealt with any broker or agent in connection with the negotiation or execution of this
Amendment other than Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Services, Inc., and CB Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Inc., whose commission
Sublandlord shall pay under a separate written agreement. Subtenant and Sublandlord shall each
indemnify the other against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and other liability for
commissions or other compensation claimed by any other broker or agent claiming the same by,
through, or under the indemnifying party.
9. Ratification. Subtenant hereby ratifies and confirms its obligations under
the Sublease, and represents and warrants to Sublandlord that it has no defenses thereto.
Additionally, Subtenant further confirms and ratifies that, as of the date hereof, (a) the Sublease
is and remains in good standing and in full force and effect, and (b) Subtenant has no claims,
counterclaims, set-offs or defenses against Sublandlord arising out of the Sublease or in any way
relating thereto or arising out of any other transaction between Sublandlord and Subtenant.
10. Binding Effect; Governing Law; Recitals. Except as modified hereby, the Sublease
shall remain in full effect and this Amendment shall be binding upon Sublandlord and Subtenant and
their respective successors and assigns. If any inconsistency exists or arises between the terms of
this Amendment and the terms of the Sublease, the terms of this Amendment shall prevail. This
Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. The recitals at the beginning of
this Amendment are hereby incorporated as if fully set forth herein.
11. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original, but all of which shall constitute one document.
