6. TENANT IMPROVEMENTS. Landlord shall deliver each Additional Space to
-------------------
Tenant with the same level of base building improvements as Landlord was
required to deliver the Original Premises (not including the first floor).
Tenant shall accept each Additional Space in an "as-is" physical condition,
without any agreement, representation, credit or allowance from Landlord with
respect to the improvement or condition thereof, except as otherwise set forth
in this Paragraph 6. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a tenant improvement
allowance in the amount of $35.00 per rentable square foot of the Additional
Spaces. Such tenant improvement allowance shall be used only for improvements to
the Additional Spaces and the Original Premises. The Work Letter Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit B shall control Tenant's performance of work to
prepare the Additional Spaces for Tenant's initial occupancy.
7. ADDITIONAL PARKING AREA CONTINGENCY. Landlord is currently negotiating
-----------------------------------
with Northern Illinois Gas Company for the acquisition (through fee ownership or
through a long-term easement) of additional parking areas to serve the Windy
Point of Schaumburg complex. Such parking areas will be located adjacent to, and
North of, the complex. Notwithstanding anything in this Amendment to the
contrary, if Landlord fails to acquire such additional parking areas by July 31,
2000, by written notice to Landlord given not later than August 10, 2000, Tenant
may elect to terminate its lease of the Second Additional Space (but not the
First Additional Space). Failure by Tenant to timely deliver such notice shall
be deemed a waiver by Tenant of the foregoing termination right. The termination
right shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy if Landlord does not obtain
additional parking areas to serve the complex. If Tenant elects to terminate its
lease of the Second Additional Space as provided in this Paragraph 7, the Lease,
as amended hereby, shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the
Original Premises and the First Additional Space (and references herein to the
"Additional Space" and the "Additional Spaces" shall mean only the First
Additional Space).
8. ADDITIONAL MODIFICATIONS.
------------------------
A. After-Hours Operation of Building Fan System. Section 5D of the Lease is
--------------------------------------------
hereby amended to provide that the hourly charge for after-hours operation of
the Building's fan system for heating or air conditioning provided to an
Additional Space shall equal Landlord's electric costs, at the rates then
charged by the Building's electricity provider, and a reasonable fee to Landlord
for maintenance and repair of the fan system, rather than the fixed fee provided
in such Section 5D. The hourly charge for after-hours operation of the
Building's fan system for heating or air conditioning provided to the Original
Premises shall continue to be determined as set forth in Section 5D of the
Lease.
B. Second Floor Option Space. After consummation of the transactions
-------------------------
described in this Amendment (but subject to Paragraph 7), Tenant shall have
leased all of the available space on the second floor of the Building.
Accordingly, Section 26 of the Lease is hereby amended by deleting the
Pre-Commencement Second Floor Expansion Option and the Post-Commencement Second
Floor Expansion Option. Likewise, Tenant shall no longer have a Right of First
Refusal, as provided in Section 27, to lease space on the second floor of the
Building.
4
C. Rights of First Opportunity. After consummation of the transactions
---------------------------
described in this Amendment, Tenant shall have leased all rentable areas on the
sixth floor of the Building. Accordingly, Section 28 of the Lease is hereby
amended to provide that Tenant does not have a Right of First Opportunity to
lease space on the sixth floor of the Building. Furthermore, Tenant acknowledges
that the Phase II Building, as defined in Section 28 of the Lease, will be a
build-to-suit and that, therefor, Tenant shall not have a Right of First
Opportunity to lease any space in the Phase II Building. All references to the
"Phase II Building" in Section 28 of the Lease are hereby deleted.
D. Termination Option. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that for purposes
------------------
of the Termination Option set forth in Section 33 of the Lease, Tenant shall be
deemed to have leased the First Additional Space and the Second Additional Space
through the exercise of the Second Floor Expansion Option. Accordingly, Tenant
shall have the right to terminate its lease of the First Additional Space and
the Second Additional Space in accordance with such Section 33, provided the Fee
for termination of the First Additional Space and/or the Second Additional Space
shall be $25.00 per rentable square foot (but the Fee for termination of the
balance of the applicable space shall remain $35.00 per rentable square foot).
9. BROKER. Tenant represents that except for Xxxxxxx Realty Corp. and
------
Equis (collectively, the "Brokers"), Tenant has not dealt with any real estate
broker, salesperson or finder in connection with this Amendment, and no such
person initiated or participated in the negotiation of this Amendment. Tenant
agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord, its property manager and their
respective employees harmless from and against all claims, demands, actions,
liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, attorneys' fees) arising
from either (i) a claim for a fee or commission made by any broker, other than
the Broker, claiming to have acted by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with
this Amendment, or (ii) a claim of, or right to, lien under the statutes of
Illinois relating to real estate broker liens with respect to any such broker
retained by Tenant. Landlord agrees to pay the Brokers a commission in
accordance with the agreement between Landlord and the Brokers recited in Item
10 of the Schedule of the Lease.
10. BINDING EFFECT. The Lease, as amended hereby, shall continue in full
--------------
force and effect, subject to the terms and provisions thereof and hereof. In the
event of any conflict between the terms of the Lease and the terms of this
Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall control. This Amendment shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of Landlord, Tenant and their respective
successors and permitted assigns.
11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Any liability of Landlord under the Lease, as
-----------------------
amended hereby, shall be limited solely to its equity interest in the Building,
and in no event shall any personal liability be asserted against Landlord in
connection with the Lease, as amended hereby, nor shall any recourse be had to
any other property or assets of Landlord.
5
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment is executed as of the day and year
aforesaid.
