Any work performed by Landlord on behalf of Tenant shall meet the requirements set forth herein.
5. | Base Rental. |
(a) | Tenant agrees to pay during the Lease Term, to Landlord, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever, except as set forth herein, the Base Rental, and all such other sums of money as shall become due hereunder as additional rent, all of which are sometimes herein collectively called “rent” for the nonpayment of which Landlord shall be entitled to exercise all such rights and remedies as are herein provided in the case of the nonpayment of Base Rental. The annual Base Rental for each calendar year or portion thereof during the Lease Term, together with any estimated adjustments thereto pursuant to Paragraphs 6, 20, and 21 hereof, shall be due and payable in advance in twelve (12) equal installments on the first day of each calendar month during the initial term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals thereof, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay such Base Rental and any adjustments thereto to Landlord at Landlord’s address provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Landlord in writing from time to time) monthly, in advance, and without demand. If the term of this Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of Base Rental and any adjustments thereto for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month. |

(c) | That for a period of three (3) months Tenant herein shall receive a rent moratorium, that is a delay in the payment of Base Rental obligation for the period of time commencing with the Commencement Date and ending on the last day of the third full month of this Lease. Thereafter, and provided that Tenant fully and completely complies with all terms and conditions of this Lease, and is not in default of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease (or if the Tenant’s defaults but subsequently cures the same to the Landlord’s satisfaction), said moratorium shall be deemed complete and vested as of the date of expiration of lease and the Tenant shall have no further obligation to make payment of Base Rental for the period set out in this sub-paragraph. |
However, if Tenant for whatever reason breaches or is in default of any term or condition of this Lease and fails to cure the same to the satisfaction of the Landlord herein within the cure periods provided for in Section 27(a) of this Lease, the rent moratorium for the period aforementioned shall immediately be deemed to have ceased and expired without notice to the Tenant and Tenant shall immediately be liable for the entire amount of the rent during the moratorium period aforementioned, plus any and all other remedies available to the Landlord at law or in equity.
6. | Basic Cost Increase Adjustment. |
The Base Rental payable hereunder shall be adjusted upward from time to time in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) | The Building contains 126,031 square feet of Net Rentable Area in the aggregate. Tenant’s Base Rental is based, in part, upon the premise that annual Basic Costs will be equal to the Basic Costs for calendar year 2005 (the “Basic Costs Base Year”). Tenant shall, when Landlord so requires, during the term of this Lease pay as an adjustment to Base Rental hereunder an amount (per each square foot of Net Rentable Area within the Premises, including those portions of Common Areas allocated to the Premises from time to time) equal to the excess (“Excess”) from time to time of actual Basic Costs (on a per square foot basis) for such year over the Basic Costs for the Basic Costs Base Year. The Landlord estimates the Basic Costs for the Basic Costs Base Year to be $7.55 per square foot. Landlord may collect such additional Base Rental in arrears on a yearly basis. Landlord shall also have the option to make a good faith estimate of the Excess for each upcoming calendar year and upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Tenant may require the monthly payment of Base Rental adjusted in accordance with such estimate. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment when actual Basic Costs are available for each calendar year. |
(b) | Tenant shall have the right no more frequently than once per calendar year, following prior written notice to Landlord, to audit Landlord’s books and records relating to Basic Costs during the year preceding such audit. In the event such an audit demonstrates that additional Base Rental collected for such preceding year to be higher or lower than the amount of additional rental actually due pursuant to 6(a) above, then Landlord shall refund any over-payment or Tenant shall make good any |
7
under-payment within ten (10) days of such determination. Tenant shall bear the costs of such audit unless said over-payment or under-payment exceeds five percent (5%) of the amount of additional rental actually due pursuant to Paragraph 6(a) above, in which case Landlord shall bear the costs of the audit. Solely with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the audit and any over-payment or under-payment shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the (“AAA”) by a sole arbitrator. The arbitration shall be governed by the rules of the AAA, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The costs of the arbitration shall be paid by the losing party. |
(c) | Xxxxxxxx agrees that it will not make adjustments to reconciliation statement for the Basic Costs for a given calendar year after December 31 of such calendar year. |
7. | Services to be Furnished by Landlord. |
Xxxxxxxx agrees to furnish Tenant the following services:
(a) | Hot and cold water at those points of supply provided for general use of other tenants in the Building including the lunchroom), central heat and air conditioning in season, at such temperatures and in such amounts as are considered by Landlord to be standard or as required by governmental authority; provided, however, heating and air conditioning service at times other than for “Normal Business Hours” for the Building (which are 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays, exclusive of normal business holidays), shall be furnished to Tenant through the use of a card key system which automatically accesses the after hours HVAC system. Tenant shall bear the entire cost of additional service allocable to the Premises as such costs are determined by Landlord from time to time (but such costs shall not include depreciation, management fees or a mark-up beyond the actual estimated costs of the utility service). The initial cost of HVAC outside of Normal Business Hours shall be $62.50 per hour. |
(b) | Routine maintenance and electric lighting service for all Exterior Common Areas, Common Areas and Service Areas in the manner and to the extent deemed by Landlord to be standard. |
(c) | Janitor service, Mondays through Fridays, exclusive of normal business holidays; provided, however, if Tenant’s floor covering or other improvements require special treatment, Tenant shall pay the additional cleaning cost attributable thereto as additional rent upon presentation of a statement therefor by Landlord. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord’s employees in the furnishing by Landlord of janitorial services at such times (including Normal Business Hours) as Landlord elects to have the necessary work performed; provided, however, that janitorial services performed by Landlord during Normal Business Hours shall be performed in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with Tenants’ use of the Premises.

Tenant shall fully cooperate in Landlord’s efforts to maintain security in the Building and shall follow all regulations promulgated by Landlord with respect thereto.

Landlord may also close the Building in the event of an emergency or casualty but, subject to the other provisions of this Lease, for as short a period of time as is reasonable under the circumstances. |
The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish or the interruption or termination of these defined services in whole or in part, resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord shall not render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement hereof. In the event services are interrupted and continues for more than five (5) days after written notice by Xxxxxx, Tenants rental obligation shall be abated till such time as services are restored only if Tenant does not have business interruption insurance. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in the provision of such services for any cause cease to function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or abatement of rent or damages on account of an interruption in service occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom unless such damage is the result of the negligent act or omission of Landlord, its agents, contractors or employees but subject to the waiver of subrogation rights set out below if the Tenant’s damages are covered by insurance.

Each party hereby indemnifies and holds the other party harmless from all liability and claims for any such damage or injury.
23. | Waiver of Subrogation Rights. |
Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any and all rights of recovery, claim, action, or cause of action, against the other, its agents, officers, or employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to the Premises, or any improvements thereto, or the Building of which the Premises are a part, or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of such party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause(s) which are insured against under the terms of the standard fire and extended coverage insurance policies referred to in Paragraph 20 hereof, regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of the other party hereto, its agents, officers, or employees.
24. | Casualty Damage. |
If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. In case the Building shall be so damaged that substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s sole opinion, be required (whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged by such casualty) or in the event any mortgagee of Landlord’s should require that the insurance proceeds payable as
15
a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt or in the event of any material uninsured loss to the Building, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within ninety (90) days after the date of such damage. If Landlord does not thus elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Building to substantially the same condition in which it was immediately prior to the happening of the casualty, except that Landlord’s obligation to restore shall not exceed the scope of the work required to be done by Landlord at Landlord’s expense in originally constructing the Building and installing the Improvements, nor shall Landlord be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord as a result of the casualty. When the portions of Premises originally furnished at Landlord’s expense have been restored by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, complete the restoration of the Premises, including the reconstruction of all improvements in excess of those Improvements originally installed at Landlord’s expense, and the restoration of Tenant’s furniture and equipment. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof, except that, subject to the provisions of the next sentence, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
25. | Condemnation. |
If the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises should be taken for any public or quasi-public use, by right of eminent domain or otherwise or should be sold in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of the Building or the Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If less than the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises is thus taken or sold, Landlord (whether or not the Premises are affected thereby) may terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant; in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such portion of the Building or Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If this Lease is not so terminated upon any such taking or sale, the Base Rental payable hereunder shall be diminished by an equitable amount, and Landlord shall, to the extent Landlord deems feasible, restore the Building and the Premises to substantially their former condition, but such work shall not exceed the scope of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing the Building and the Improvements, nor shall Landlord in any event be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as compensation for such damage. All amounts awarded upon a taking of any part or all of the Building or the Premises shall belong to Landlord and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claim to any such compensation. Landlord, however, will allow Tenant to make a claim for compensation directly to the condemning authority provided the same does not reduce or diminish Landlord’s claim.
16
26. | Damages From Certain Causes. |
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition, or order of governmental body or authority or by any other cause beyond the control of Landlord.

In addition, the provisions of Paragraph 29 hereof shall apply with respect to the period from and after the giving of notice of such termination to Tenant. All Landlord’s remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such default.
(c) | This Paragraph 27 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, and the unenforceability of any portion thereof shall not thereby render unenforceable any other portion. To the extent any provision of applicable law requires some action by Landlord to evidence or effect the termination of this Lease or to evidence the termination of Tenant’s right of occupancy, Tenant and Landlord hereby agree that thirty (30) days written notice from Landlord that comes to the attention of Tenant, its agents, servants or employees, which reflects Landlord’s intention to terminate, shall be sufficient to evidence and effect the termination herein provided for. |

32. | No Implied Waiver. |
The failure of either party to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any covenant or agreement or to exercise any option, right, power or remedy contained in this Lease shall not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment thereof for the future. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly installment of rent due under this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest rent due hereunder, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment of rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided.

51. | Right of First Offer. |
Provided that no Default then exists hereunder and subject to any lease renewal rights of existing tenants or rights of first offer of existing tenants which predate Tenant’s Right of First Offer and are in effect as of the date of this Lease with respect to the First Right Space (hereinafter defined), Tenant shall have a Right of First Offer to lease all or a part of the unleased space located on the 5th floor of the Building as shown on Exhibit G attached hereto and identified thereon as the “First Right Space”. At such time as Landlord intends to offer for lease all or a part of the First Right Space, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such intent and the terms under which Landlord intends to offer the First Right Space (the “Offer Notice”). The Offer Notice shall prescribe that the Base Rental for the First Right Space shall be the then current market rate. The determination of the then current market rate shall include all concessions, commissions and other forms of inducements being offered to tenants of similar size and credit in Class A buildings along College Boulevard (west of Xxxx and east of Overland Parkway) in Overland Park, Kansas. Tenant shall notify Landlord within ten (10) days following its receipt of the Offer Notice whether or not Tenant elects to lease the applicable First Right Space. In the event Tenant does not affirmatively notify Landlord in writing of Tenant’s election to lease the First Right Space within said ten (10) day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have declined the opportunity to rent the First Right Space and Landlord shall then be free to rent the First Right Space to any third party upon such terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion (but in no case more favorable to such third party than the terms of the Offer Notice) without any further notice to Tenant. If Landlord has not thereafter leased the First Right Space within six (6) months of when Tenant declined (or was deemed to have declined) the opportunity to rent the First Right Space, then Landlord shall again be required to give an Offer Notice to the Tenant before leasing the First Right Space (provided that at such time no Default then exists hereunder and subject to any lease renewal rights or rights of first offer of existing tenants with priority as to Tenant’s Right of First Offer with respect to the First Right Space). Tenant shall receive a Tenant Improvement Allowance on the First Right Space in a dollar per square foot amount equal to the percentage of the then current Term of this Lease then remaining times $20.00 per square foot. Provided, if the lease of the First Right Space is subsequently renewed per the provisions of Paragraph 53 below. Tenant shall become entitled to receive any remaining Tenant Improvement Allowance of $20.00 per square foot not previously received for the First Right Space so long as Tenant first provides evidence to Landlord that such sums have been spent on remodeling, renovation or the improvement of the First Right Space. The expenditure of any Tenant Improvement Allowance pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to the rules for disbursement of the same as set out in Section 1(m) and All of Tenant’s rights under this Section shall be ineffective if Tenant has entered into any sublease or assignment of all or a portion of the Premises, other than to a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant, and such sublease or assignment is still in effect.
28
52. | Right of Termination. |
As long as Tenant is not in Default of any term, condition or covenant of this Lease, (unless as cured as provided for herein), Landlord hereby grants Tenant the right to terminate this Lease prior to the expiration of its initial Lease Term, for any reason whatsoever, as of the end of the 36th month of the Lease Term (the “Termination Date”) so long as (i) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of Tenant’s exercise of its Termination Option (the “Termination Notice”) at least nine (9) months but not more than twelve (12) months prior to the Termination Date and (ii) Tenant delivers to Landlord the cancellation fee (as hereinafter defined) on or before the Termination Date.
The Cancellation Fee shall be $132,205.13 which is equal to the sum of the following components: (i) the unamortized portion of the of Tenant Improvement Allowance (originally $198,120) after thirty-six months of the sixty three month Lease; (ii) the unamortized portion of commissions (originally $59,287.41), legal fees, and free rent after thirty-six months of the sixty-three month Lease; and (iii) a rent penalty in an amount equal to one (1) month’s Base Rental [$16,922.75]. An amortization rate of ten percent (10%) shall be applied in calculating that portion of the cancellation fee described in Items (i) and (ii) above.
53. | Option to Renew. |
So long as Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period, Tenant shall have the option to renew this Lease two times for additional terms of five (5) years (each a “Renewal Term”) subject to the terms set out below. Base Rental for the Premises during each Renewal Term shall be at market rate for comparable Class A office buildings along College Boulevard (west of Xxxx and east of Overland Parkway) in Overland Park, Kansas, to be determined considering all concessions, commissions and other forms of inducements being offered to tenants of similar size and credit in such Class A office buildings. Tenant shall exercise each such option (an “Extension Option”) by notifying Landlord in writing of Tenant’s exercise of the option not sooner than twelve (12) months and not later than nine (9) months prior to the end of the Lease Term or the first Renewal Term. Within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice of its exercise of an Extension Option, Landlord shall supply to Tenant in writing the Base Rental for the Premises during the Renewal Term. Within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notification as to the Base Rental for the Premises during the Renewal Term, Tenant shall respond as follows: (a) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within the said thirty (30) day period that it accepts the Base Rental proposed by Landlord for the Renewal Term in which case the Renewal Term shall commence as of the end of the 63rd month of the Lease Term or the end of the 60th month of the first Renewal Term as applicable or (b) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within the thirty (30) day period that it rejects the Base Rental set out by Landlord for the Renewal Term in which case Tenant shall be deemed without further notice and without further agreement between Landlord and Tenant to have elected not to exercise its option for said Renewal Term and any prior exercise of the
29
Extension Option for that Renewal Term is deemed revoked. If Xxxxxx fails to notify Landlord within said thirty (30) day period that it either accepts or rejects the proposed Base Rental for the Premises during such Renewal Term, then Tenant shall be deemed to have rejected the Base Rental proposed by Landlord and the Option to Terminate will expire. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, if (i) Tenant shall then be in Default in the payment of Base Rent or any other charge payable under the Lease or if Tenant shall then be in Default of any of the other terms and provisions to be performed by Tenant under the Lease as of the date Tenant shall have given Landlord notice of its election to exercise its option for the Renewal Term, or (ii) Tenant fails to give Landlord written notice of its election to exercise its option for the Option Period in the time frame required above, or (iii) Tenant having given such notice thereafter defaults under the Lease prior to the expiration of the then current term, and Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to negate such notice by reason of such Default, then Tenant shall be deemed without further notice and without further agreement between Landlord and Tenant to have elected not to exercise its option for said Xxxxxxx Xxxx. Any holding over or failure to vacate the Premises at the end of the Lease Term shall not be deemed or construed to be an exercise of the Renewal Term or any extension of the Lease. Any termination of the Lease shall terminate Tenant’s rights of further extension hereunder. The Options to Renew may not be exercised by any assignee of Tenant and the Tenant’s rights under this Section shall terminate if Tenant subleases all or substantially all of the Premises, other than to a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Tenant. This right of renewal shall apply to First Lease Space as well as to the original Premises.
54. | Communications Devices. |
Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to, at anytime during the Lease Term, install on the roof of the Building one (1) satellite dish (which is not to exceed thirty-six inches inches in diameter or thirty-six inches feet in height) (hereafter a “Communications Device”). The installation of such Communication Device shall otherwise comply with the applicable building codes and ordinances and any applicable or future reasonable Rules and Regulations of Landlord, if any, and shall not interfere with the use and occupancy of other tenants in the Building or with Communications Devices which are already in place at the time of installation of Tenant’s Communication Device. Tenant shall notify Landlord prior to installing its Communication Device; access to the roof of the Building for installation of the Communication Device shall require Landlord’s assistance and Landlord shall always accompany Tenant whenever Tenant is installing, maintaining or otherwise needs access to its Communication Device installed on the roof of the Building. The installation, operation and maintenance of the Communication Device shall not damage the Building in any fashion. Tenant shall pay all costs of installation, operation, maintenance and removal of the Communication Device as well as the cost of repair of any damage to the Building caused by the installation, presence or removal of the Communications Device. No additional rent shall be due in connection with the Communications Device. Tenant shall remove the Communication Device as of the termination of the Lease. Tenant shall move or allow Landlord to move the Communications Device in the event Landlord needs or desires to repair or replace the roof or the portion thereof to which the Communications Device is attached.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE
This First Amendment to Lease (“First Amendment”) is made as of the 27th day of February, 2006 by and between Commerce Plaza Partners II, L.P. having its principal office c/o AEW Capital Management L.P., World Trade Center East, Two Sea Port Lane, Boston, MA 02210-2021 (“Landlord”) and First Horizon MSAver Resources, Inc., a Tennessee corporation, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000 (“Tenant”).
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant entered into a lease dated July 6, 2005 (the “Original Lease”) for space, as more particularly described in the Original Lease in a building located at real property known as Commerce Plaza XX, 0000 Xxxx 000xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx; and
WHEREAS, the parties to the Lease now desire to amend the Lease to, among other things, modify the description of the Premises to be Leased; and
WHEREAS, unless expressly provided for to the contrary herein, the effective date of all provisions of this First Amendment shall be April 1, 2006;
NOW THEREFORE, for Ten Dollars ($10.00) and other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by Landlord and Tenant, the parties agree as follows:
1. | Section 1(b) of the Original Lease is amended to include as part of the Premises an additional 1,434 rentable square feet on the fifth floor of the Building (the “April 2006 Space”). Xxxxxx agrees to lease the April 2006 Space commencing as of April 1, 2006 and expiring as of the expiration date of the Original Lease, except to the extent Tenant exercises its rights under the Original Lease which would extend such date. The April 2006 Space is as depicted on the floor plan attached to this First Amendment as Exhibit “A”. |
2. | The following provisions are added at the end of Section 1(c) of the Original Lease: In addition to the Base Rent already due under the Lease, Tenant shall pay with respect to the April 2006 Space added to the Premises by the First Amendment, $0.00 in rent for April and May 2006 and thereafter an annual Fixed Rent of $27,963.00 (beginning June 1, 2006) in equal monthly payments of $2330.25 in advance on the first day of each calendar month through and including the thirty-sixth (36th) month of the term of the Original Lease. Thereafter, during months thirty-seven (37) through sixty-three (63) of the term of the Original Lease, Tenant shall pay with respect to the April 2006 Space, annual Fixed Rent of $29,397 in equal monthly payments of $2,449.75 in advance on the first day of each calendar month during such months. Any partial years shall be pro rated as set out in the Lease. |
If as of April 1, 2006, Landlord is not able to deliver possession of the April 2006 Space to Tenant, Landlord should have no liability to Tenant on account of such delay and Tenant shall not be released of its obligation to let the April 2006 Space. In the event of such delay, the obligations of the Tenant with respect to the April 2006 Space shall, however, be delayed until possession is delivered to Tenant and the Base Rent herein provided for shall not commence until delivery of possession of the April 2006 Space to Tenant by Landlord (whether or not Tenant then occupies such space). It is Landlord and Xxxxxx’s intention that Tenant shall be entitled to sixty (60) days (two months) of free rent as to the April 2006 Space; e.g., if Tenant is not given possession of the April 2006 Space until May 15, 2006, Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent until July 15, 2006 and as of July 15, 2006 shall pay a pro rata share of rent for the last half of July and then commence its monthly payments of Base Rent on August 1, 2006 and continue the same thereafter through the term of the Original Lease at the Base Rent rates set out above for the April 2006 Space.
3. | The rent penalty set out in Section 52 of the Lease as concerns the Tenant’s one time right to terminate shall increase by $9,650.06. The exercise of any Option to Renew shall include the Premises as amended by this First Amendment. |
4 | Tenant agrees to take the April 2006 Space in its “as is, where is” condition. Landlord shall have no obligation to perform any work or construction to the April 2006 Space. Xxxxxxxx agrees to clean the carpet prior to April 1, 2006. |
5. | Landlord and Tenant agree as follows: |
(a) | The Lease is in full force and effect as amended. |
Xxxxxx makes the following representations and warranties to Landlord in connection with this First Amendment:
(b) | The person signing this Agreement on behalf of Tenant is authorized to do so. |
(c) | As of the date hereof, Xxxxxx does not have and does not know of any disputes with or claims against Landlord or any breach or violation by Landlord of the terms and conditions of the Original Lease; |
(d) | Tenant is not in default under the Original Lease, and there is no condition or stayed effects, which with the giving of notice and/or passage of time would constitute a default under the Lease. |
2
(e) | The Premises now consist of 9,906 square feet plus 1,434 square feet added pursuant to this First Amendment. |
Xxxxxxxx makes the following representations and warranties to Tenant in connection with this First Amendment:
(f) | The person signing this Agreement on behalf of Landlord is authorized to do so. |
6 | Except as modified by this First Amendment, the Lease, as previously modified and amended shall remain in full force and effect. This First Amendment contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any other prior contemporaneous oral or written agreements or letters. This First Amendment may not be modified except by agreement in writing signed by Landlord and Xxxxxx. Except as otherwise provided for herein, in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Lease and the terms of this First Amendment, the terms of this First Amendment shall prevail. |
7 | This First Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. |
8 | This First Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute a single instrument. |
9 | Tenant represents and warrants that it has dealt with no broker, agent or other person in connection with this First Amendment to Lease other than Xxxxx & Xxxxx/The Xxxxxxx Group (representing Landlord) and the Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Company (representing Tenant). Landlord shall be responsible for paying all fees and commissions owed to the brokers named above that relate to this First Amendment. Each party agrees that should any claim be made for brokerage commissions or finder’s fees by any broker or finder other than those listed above, by, through or on account of any acts of said party or its representatives, said party will indemnify and hold the other party free and harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, cost, damage and expense in connection therewith. |
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this First Amendment has been executed as of the date and year first above written.

(“ADA”), (including, but not limited to, modifying its policies, practices and procedures, and providing auxiliary aids and services to disabled persons).

Any work performed by Landlord on behalf of Tenant shall meet the requirements set forth herein.
5. | Base Rental. |
(a) | Tenant agrees to pay during the Lease Term, to Landlord, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever, except as set forth herein, the Base Rental, and all such other sums of money as shall become due hereunder as additional rent, all of which are sometimes herein collectively called “rent” for the nonpayment of which Landlord shall be entitled to exercise all such rights and remedies as are herein provided in the case of the nonpayment of Base Rental. The annual Base Rental for each calendar year or portion thereof during the Lease Term, together with any estimated adjustments thereto pursuant to Paragraphs 6, 20, and 21 hereof, shall be due and payable in advance in twelve (12) equal installments on the first day of each calendar month during the initial term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals thereof, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay such Base Rental and any adjustments thereto to Landlord at Landlord’s address provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Landlord in writing from time to time) monthly, in advance, and without demand. If the term of this Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a month, then the installments of Base Rental and any adjustments thereto for such month or months shall be prorated, based on the number of days in such month. |
(b) | In the event any installment of rent is not paid when due and payable, Tenant shall pay a late charge of $100.00 per day for each day of delinquency. |

(c) | That for a period of three (3) months Tenant herein shall receive a rent moratorium, that is a delay in the payment of Base Rental obligation for the period of time commencing with the Commencement Date and ending on the last day of the third full month of this Lease. Thereafter, and provided that Tenant fully and completely complies with all terms and conditions of this Lease, and is not in default of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease (or if the Tenant’s defaults but subsequently cures the same to the Landlord’s satisfaction), said moratorium shall be deemed complete and vested as of the date of expiration of lease and the Tenant shall have no further obligation to make payment of Base Rental for the period set out in this sub-paragraph. |
However, if Tenant for whatever reason breaches or is in default of any term or condition of this Lease and fails to cure the same to the satisfaction of the Landlord herein within the cure periods provided for in Section 27(a) of this Lease, the rent moratorium for the period aforementioned shall immediately be deemed to have ceased and expired without notice to the Tenant and Tenant shall immediately be liable for the entire amount of the rent during the moratorium period aforementioned, plus any and all other remedies available to the Landlord at law or in equity.
6. | Basic Cost Increase Adjustment. |
The Base Rental payable hereunder shall be adjusted upward from time to time in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) | The Building contains 126,031 square feet of Net Rentable Area in the aggregate. Tenant’s Base Rental is based, in part, upon the premise that annual Basic Costs will be equal to the Basic Costs for calendar year 2005 (the “Basic Costs Base Year”). Tenant shall, when Landlord so requires, during the term of this Lease pay as an adjustment to Base Rental hereunder an amount (per each square foot of Net Rentable Area within the Premises, including those portions of Common Areas allocated to the Premises from time to time) equal to the excess (“Excess”) from time to time of actual Basic Costs (on a per square foot basis) for such year over the Basic Costs for the Basic Costs Base Year. The Landlord estimates the Basic Costs for the Basic Costs Base Year to be $7.55 per square foot. Landlord may collect such additional Base Rental in arrears on a yearly basis. Landlord shall also have the option to make a good faith estimate of the Excess for each upcoming calendar year and upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Tenant may require the monthly payment of Base Rental adjusted in accordance with such estimate. Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment when actual Basic Costs are available for each calendar year. |
(b) | Tenant shall have the right no more frequently than once per calendar year, following prior written notice to Landlord, to audit Landlord’s books and records relating to Basic Costs during the year preceding such audit. In the event such an audit demonstrates that additional Base Rental collected for such preceding year to be higher or lower than the amount of additional rental actually due pursuant to 6(a) above, then Landlord shall refund any over-payment or Tenant shall make good any |
8
under-payment within ten (10) days of such determination. Tenant shall bear the costs of such audit unless said over-payment or under-payment exceeds five percent (5%) of the amount of additional rental actually due pursuant to Paragraph 6(a) above, in which case Landlord shall bear the costs of the audit. Solely with respect to any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the audit and any over-payment or under-payment shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the (“AAA”) by a sole arbitrator. The arbitration shall be governed by the rules of the AAA, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The costs of the arbitration shall be paid by the losing party. |
(c) | Xxxxxxxx agrees that it will not make adjustments to reconciliation statement for the Basic Costs for a given calendar year after December 31 of such calendar year. |
7. | Services to be Furnished by Landlord. |
Xxxxxxxx agrees to furnish Tenant the following services:
(a) | Hot and cold water at those points of supply provided for general use of other tenants in the Building including the lunchroom), central heat and air conditioning in season, at such temperatures and in such amounts as are considered by Landlord to be standard or as required by governmental authority; provided, however, heating and air conditioning service at times other than for “Normal Business Hours” for the Building (which are 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays and 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturdays, exclusive of normal business holidays), shall be furnished to Tenant through the use of a card key system which automatically accesses the after hours HVAC system. Tenant shall bear the entire cost of additional service allocable to the Premises as such costs are determined by Landlord from time to time (but such costs shall not include depreciation, management fees or a mark-up beyond the actual estimated costs of the utility service). The initial cost of HVAC outside of Normal Business Hours shall be $62.50 per hour. |
(b) | Routine maintenance and electric lighting service for all Exterior Common Areas, Common Areas and Service Areas in the manner and to the extent deemed by Landlord to be standard. |
(c) | Janitor service, Mondays through Fridays, exclusive of normal business holidays; provided, however, if Tenant’s floor covering or other improvements require special treatment, Tenant shall pay the additional cleaning cost attributable thereto as additional rent upon presentation of a statement therefor by Landlord. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord’s employees in the furnishing by Landlord of janitorial services at such times (including Normal Business Hours) as Landlord elects to have the necessary work performed; provided, however, that janitorial services performed by Landlord during Normal Business Hours shall be performed in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with Tenants’ use of the Premises.

Landlord may close the Building at 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 12:00 p.m. on Saturday and all day Sunday and Building Holidays; after which hour, admittance may be gained only under such regulations as may from time to time be reasonably prescribed by Landlord, except that Tenant shall have access to the Premises 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Landlord may also close the Building in the event of an emergency or casualty but, subject to the other provisions of this Lease, for as short a period of time as is reasonable under the circumstances. |
The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish or the interruption or termination of these defined services in whole or in part, resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord shall not render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement hereof. In the event services are interrupted and continues for more than five (5) days after written notice by Xxxxxx, Tenants rental obligation shall be abated till such time as services are restored only if Tenant does not have business interruption insurance. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in the provision of such services for any cause cease to function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or abatement of rent or damages on account of an interruption in service occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom unless such damage is the result of the negligent act or omission of Landlord, its agents, contractors or employees but subject to the waiver of subrogation rights set out below if the Tenant’s damages are covered by insurance.

19. | Mechanic’s Liens. |
Tenant will not cause any mechanic’s lien or liens to be placed upon the Premises or the Building and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any person for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials to the Premises, or any part thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power, or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to any mechanics’ or other liens against the Premises. In the event any such lien is attached to the Premises, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same. Any amount paid by Landlord for any of the aforesaid purposes shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand as additional rent.
20. | Insurance. |
(a) | Landlord shall maintain fire and extended coverage insurance on the Building and the Premises in such amounts as Landlord’s mortgagees shall require payable solely to Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord as their interests shall appear. Landlord’s insurance shall cover the Landlord funded Improvements constructed with the Tenant Improvement Allowance up to the amount of the allowance. Tenant shall maintain at its expense, in an amount equal to full replacement cost, fire and extended coverage insurance on all of its personal property, including removable trade fixtures, located in the Premises and in such additional amounts as are required to meet Tenant’s obligations pursuant to Paragraph 24 hereof. Tenant shall, at Xxxxxxxx’s request from time to time, provide Landlord with current certificates of insurance evidencing Tenant’s compliance with this Paragraph 20(a). Tenant shall obtain the agreement of Xxxxxx’s insurers to notify Landlord that a policy is due to expire at least ten (10) days prior to such expiration. |

22. | Indemnity. |
Each party shall not be liable to the other party, or to such party’s agents, servants, employees, customers, or invitees for any injury to person or damage to property caused by any act, omission, or neglect of the other party, its agents, servants, or employees, invitees, licensees or any other person entering the Project or arising out of the use of the Premises or Project and the conduct of each party’s business or out of a default in the performance of its obligations hereunder. Each party hereby indemnifies and holds the other party harmless from all liability and claims for any such damage or injury.
23. | Waiver of Subrogation Rights. |
Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive any and all rights of recovery, claim, action, or cause of action, against the other, its agents, officers, or employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to the Premises, or any improvements thereto, or the Building of which the Premises are a part, or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of such party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause(s) which are insured against under the terms of the standard fire and extended coverage insurance policies referred to in Paragraph 20 hereof, regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of the other party hereto, its agents, officers, or employees.
24. | Casualty Damage. |
If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. In case the Building shall be so damaged that substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s sole opinion, be required (whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged by such casualty) or in the event any mortgagee of Landlord’s should require that the insurance proceeds payable as
16
a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt or in the event of any material uninsured loss to the Building, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within ninety (90) days after the date of such damage. If Landlord does not thus elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Building to substantially the same condition in which it was immediately prior to the happening of the casualty, except that Landlord’s obligation to restore shall not exceed the scope of the work required to be done by Landlord at Landlord’s expense in originally constructing the Building and installing the Improvements, nor shall Landlord be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord as a result of the casualty. When the portions of Premises originally furnished at Landlord’s expense have been restored by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, complete the restoration of the Premises, including the reconstruction of all improvements in excess of those Improvements originally installed at Landlord’s expense, and the restoration of Tenant’s furniture and equipment. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof, except that, subject to the provisions of the next sentence, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
25. | Condemnation. |
If the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises should be taken for any public or quasi-public use, by right of eminent domain or otherwise or should be sold in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of the Building or the Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If less than the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises is thus taken or sold, Landlord (whether or not the Premises are affected thereby) may terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant; in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such portion of the Building or Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If this Lease is not so terminated upon any such taking or sale, the Base Rental payable hereunder shall be diminished by an equitable amount, and Landlord shall, to the extent Landlord deems feasible, restore the Building and the Premises to substantially their former condition, but such work shall not exceed the scope of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing the Building and the Improvements, nor shall Landlord in any event be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as compensation for such damage. All amounts awarded upon a taking of any part or all of the Building or the Premises shall belong to Landlord and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claim to any such compensation. Landlord, however, will allow Tenant to make a claim for compensation directly to the condemning authority provided the same does not reduce or diminish Landlord’s claim.
17
26. | Damages From Certain Causes. |
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition, or order of governmental body or authority or by any other cause beyond the control of Landlord.

As long as Tenant is not in Default of any term, condition or covenant of this Lease, (unless as cured as provided for herein), Landlord hereby grants Tenant the right to terminate this Lease prior to the expiration of its initial Lease Term, for any reason whatsoever, as of the end of the 36th month of the Lease Term (the “Termination Date”) so long as (i) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of Tenant’s exercise of its Termination Option (the “Termination Notice”) at least nine (9) months but not more than twelve (12) months prior to the Termination Date and (ii) Tenant delivers to Landlord the cancellation fee (as hereinafter defined) on or before the Termination Date.

So long as Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period, Tenant shall have the option to renew this Lease two times for additional terms of five (5) years (each a “Renewal Term”) subject to the terms set out below. Base Rental for the Premises during each Renewal Term shall be at market rate for comparable Class A office buildings along College Boulevard (west of Xxxx and east of Overland Parkway) in Overland Park, Kansas, to be determined considering all concessions, commissions and other forms of inducements being offered to tenants of similar size and credit in such Class A office buildings. Tenant shall exercise each such option (an “Extension Option”) by notifying Landlord in writing of Tenant’s exercise of the option not sooner than twelve (12) months and not later than nine (9) months prior to the end of the Lease Term or the first Renewal Term. Within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice of its exercise of an Extension Option, Landlord shall supply to Tenant in writing the Base Rental for the Premises during the Renewal Term. Within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notification as to the Base Rental for the Premises during the Renewal Term, Tenant shall respond as follows: (a) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within the said thirty (30) day period that it accepts the Base Rental proposed by Landlord for the Renewal Term in which case the Renewal Term shall commence as of the end of the 63rd month of the Lease Term or the end of the 60th month of the first Renewal Term as applicable or (b) Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing within the thirty (30) day period that it rejects the Base Rental set out by Landlord for the Renewal Term in which case Tenant shall be deemed without further notice and without further agreement between Landlord and Tenant to have elected not to exercise its option for said Renewal Term and any prior exercise of the
30
Extension Option for that Renewal Term is deemed revoked. If Xxxxxx fails to notify Landlord within said thirty (30) day period that it either accepts or rejects the proposed Base Rental for the Premises during such Renewal Term, then Tenant shall be deemed to have rejected the Base Rental proposed by Landlord and the Option to Terminate will expire. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, if (i) Tenant shall then be in Default in the payment of Base Rent or any other charge payable under the Lease or if Tenant shall then be in Default of any of the other terms and provisions to be performed by Tenant under the Lease as of the date Tenant shall have given Landlord notice of its election to exercise its option for the Renewal Term, or (ii) Tenant fails to give Landlord written notice of its election to exercise its option for the Option Period in the time frame required above, or (iii) Tenant having given such notice thereafter defaults under the Lease prior to the expiration of the then current term, and Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord elects to negate such notice by reason of such Default, then Tenant shall be deemed without further notice and without further agreement between Landlord and Tenant to have elected not to exercise its option for said Xxxxxxx Xxxx.

1
4. | It is further agreed that this Agreement shall not be deemed to create a bailment between the parties hereto, it being expressly agreed and understood that the only relationship created between Landlord and Tenant hereby is that of licensor and licensee, respectively. |
5. | In its use of the spaces, Tenant shall follow all of the rules of the Building applicable thereto, as the same may be amended from time to time. Upon the occurrence of any breach of such rules, failure to make rental payments due hereunder or default by Tenant under the Lease or under this Agreement, Landlord shall be entitled to immediately terminate this Agreement, in which event Tenant’s right to utilize any and all of the spaces leased hereunder shall thereupon cease. |

7. | Landlord shall issue Tenant security access cards to the Garage. |
8. | To further insure that only those parties leasing Parking Spaces are utilizing such parking spaces, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a complete list of the names of all of Tenant’s employees issued security access cards, which list shall contain the corresponding license plate numbers of those automobiles owned, leased or used by each of said employees.

WHEREAS, Indemnitor expects to lease approximately 10,000 square feet of space on the 5th floor of the Building (the “Prospective Leased Premises”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the proposed Lease, Indemnitee is to contract for construction plans and specifications in connection with tenant improvements to be constructed in the Prospective Leased Premises; and
WHEREAS, the Lease (as currently being negotiated) provides for a Tenant Finish Allowance from the Indemnitee in favor of Indemnitor; and
WHEREAS, in order to induce Indemnitee to spend a portion of the Tenant Finish Allowance before the Lease is in final form and in order to provide for the actual Tenant Finish work to commence as soon as possible once the Lease is in final form and executed by Indemnitee and Indemnitor, Indemnitor has agreed to enter into this Indemnity Agreement;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above-stated premises, for Ten Dollars ($10.00) in hand paid, and for other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Indemnitor hereby agrees for the benefit of Indemnitee as follows:
1. If no Lease is entered into by the parties hereto for the Prospective Leased Premises, then in such event Indemnitor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Indemnitee harmless from and against any claims, expenses, liabilities and costs incurred by Indemnitee in contracting for construction plans, specifications and drawings for the tenant finish of the Prospective Leased Premises up to an amount not to exceed $1.25 per square foot of the Prospective Leased Premises (which is approximately 10,000 square feet). By its execution of this Indemnity Agreement, Indemnitor hereby authorizes Indemnitee to contract for preparation of such plans, specifications and drawings and agrees that Indemnitee may continue with work on such plans, specifications and drawings unless and until Indemnitor directs such work to cease. Indemnitee shall have no obligation to spend any more than $1.25 per square foot of the Prospective Leased Premises unless and until a Lease is executed by both parties concerning the Prospective Leased Premises. If for any reason, Indemnitor and Indemnitee do not enter into a lease for the Prospective Leased Premises, Indemnitor shall pay to Indemnitee on demand the amount then spent by Indemnitee on the construction plans, specifications and drawing but not in excess of $1.25 times the number of square feet of the Prospective Leased Premises.

3. No provision of this Agreement shall be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, by telephone, or by any other means except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge, or termination is sought.
4. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of Indemnitor and Indemnitee hereunder shall be construed in accordance and governed by the laws of the State of Kansas. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their personal representatives, successors, heirs and assigns. If it is necessary for Indemnitee to bring legal action to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in pursuit of that action. No waiver by Indemnitee of any of the obligations of Indemnitor hereunder shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing. Waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any breach hereof shall be a waiver of only said specific provision or breach and shall not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or any future breach hereof.

C. Basic Costs Base Year. Commencing on the New Commencement Date, the Basic Costs Base Year shall be the calendar year 2010.
D. Abatement. Provided Tenant is not in default beyond any applicable notice or cure period under the Lease, as amended by this Second Amendment, Base Rental shall be abated for the two (2) month period commencing on the New Commencement Date and continuing up to and including March 31, 2010 (the “Abatement Period”). In no event shall said Abatement Period be deemed to reduce or eliminate Tenant’s obligation to pay additional rent due to Landlord during the Abatement Period.
E. Premises Reduction. The Premises currently consist of 11,340 square feet of rentable area. Landlord and Tenant agree that Tenant shall surrender approximately 1,434 of rentable area (the “Relinquished Space”) to Landlord as of the New Commencement Date as such Relinquished Space is shown on the plan attached hereto as Exhibit A. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that from and after the New Commencement Date, the Premises shall consist of 10,116 square feet of rentable area (in part because of re-measurement of the Premises). Any failure to surrender the Relinquished Space to Landlord on or before the New Commencement Date shall be deemed a default under the Lease.
F. Improvements. Landlord, at Xxxxxxxx’s own expense, will make certain improvements to the Premises in order to demarcate an additional office space within the Premises, which improvements are as follows: Landlord will build one full height wall, tape, sand, paint and install building standard rubber base on both sides of new wall and install building standard door, door frame and hardware.
X. Xxxxxxx. So long as there exists no default either at the time of exercise or on the first day of the Extension Term (as hereinafter defined) and Tenant has not assigned the Lease, as amended hereby, in whole or in part nor sublet the Premises in whole or in part, Tenant shall have the option to extend the current Lease Term for one (1) additional five (5) year period (the “Extension Term”) upon written notice to Landlord given not less than nine (9) months and not more than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Lease Term. If Tenant fails to exercise its option to extend the Term strictly within the time period set forth in this section, then Tenant’s option to extend the Term shall automatically lapse and be of no further force or effect. In the event that Tenant exercises the option granted hereunder, the Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions as are in effect under the Lease immediately preceding the commencement of such Extension Term except that the Base Rental due from the Tenant shall be increased to Landlord’s determination of Base Rental as provided herein and Tenant shall have no further right or option to extend the Term. If Tenant timely exercises its option to extend the Lease Term, then no later than thirty (30) days following receipt of Tenant’s notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of Landlord’s determination of the Base Rental for the Extension Term (“Landlord’s Rental Notice”). If Tenant does not object to Xxxxxxxx’s determination of the Base Rental by written notice to Landlord within ten (10) days after the date of Landlord’s Rental Notice, then Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Base Rent set forth in Landlord’s Rental Notice. If Tenant does timely object to Landlord’s determination of Base Rental for the Extension Term, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the Base Rental for the Extension Term, provided, however, if the parties cannot agree upon the Base Rental within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives Tenant’s notice of objection, then the Lease Term shall not be extended and Tenant’s rights under this section shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.
For the purposes of this section, Base Rental for the Extension Term shall reflect Landlord’s reasonable determination of the amount that it ninety-five percent (95%) of fair market value that would be agreed upon between a landlord and a tenant entering into a new lease on or about the date on which the Extension Term is to begin for a comparable term and for space comparable to the Premises in the Building and buildings comparable to the Building in the market area. Such determination of fair market value shall take into account any material economic differences between the terms of the Lease (as amended by this Second Amendment) and any comparison lease, such as rent abatements, construction costs and other concessions and the manner, if any, in which the landlord under any such lease is reimbursed for operating expenses and taxes. The determination of fair market value shall also take into consideration any reasonably anticipated changes in rental conditions from the time such fair market value is being determined and the date upon which the Extension Term will begin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Base Rental for any Extension Term be less than the Base Rental paid by Tenant during the last month of the then current Lease Term.
H. Expired Provisions. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that Sections 51, 52, and 53 of the Original Lease, as may have been amended by the First Amendment, are null and void and of no further force or effect.
I. Parking. The number “40” in the last sentence of the Original Lease is hereby deleted and replaced with the number “38”.

4. Ratification of Lease. Tenant hereby acknowledges and confirms that it has assumed and agreed to be bound, fully and in all respects, by all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Lease, as if Tenant, rather than any predecessor in interest to Xxxxxx, had executed and delivered the same. Except as modified hereby, all other terms and conditions of the Lease remain unchanged and in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed by the parties hereto. Tenant accepts the Premises in its “as is” and “where is” condition. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that as of the date of Tenant’s execution of this Second Amendment: (a) Tenant is not in default under any of the terms and provisions of the Lease; (b) Landlord is not in default in the performance of any of its obligations under the Lease and Tenant is unaware of any condition or circumstance which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would
constitute a default by Landlord; (c) Landlord has completed, to Tenant’s satisfaction, any and all improvements to the Premises (except for constructing that internal wall per Section 2 of this Second Amendment) and has paid any and all allowances required of it under the Lease; and (d) Tenant has no defenses, liens, claims, counterclaims or right to offset against Landlord or against the obligations of Tenant under the Lease. Tenant acknowledges, confirms, and agrees that Xxxxxx has no right or option to expand the Premises or to extend, renew or terminate the Lease except as may be provided in this Second Amendment.
5. Limitation of Liability. Neither Landlord nor any officer, director, member or employee of Landlord nor any owner of the Building, whether disclosed or undisclosed, shall have any personal liability with respect to any of the provisions of the Lease, as hereby amended, or the Premises, and if Landlord is in breach or default with respect to Landlord’s obligations under the Lease, as hereby amended, or otherwise, Tenant shall look solely to the interest of Landlord in the Building for the satisfaction of Xxxxxx’s remedies or judgments.
6. Entire Agreement. This Second Amendment, in conjunction with the Lease, constitutes the entire agreement of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral and written agreements and understandings made and entered into by the parties prior to the date hereof.
7. Multiple Counterparts. This Second Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Landlord, at Xxxxxxxx’s own expense and using materials consistent with the minimum standards of the Building (or as otherwise determined by Landlord provided such alternate materials are not inferior to such minimum standards), will make certain improvements to the Premises (the “Landlord’s Work”) as set forth on that certain scope of work attached hereto as Schedule 1 and previously approved by Tenant.
2. Substantial Completion. “Substantial Completion” or “Substantially Complete” means that Landlord’s Work has been sufficiently completed such that the Premises is suitable for its intended purpose, notwithstanding any minor or insubstantial details of construction, decoration or mechanical adjustment that remain to be performed. Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete Landlord’s Work on or before September 14, 2012.
Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the of the substantial completion of Landlord’s Work along with a proposed date for inspection thereof and Landlord and Tenant (or their respective agents or contractors) shall conduct an inspection of the Landlord’s Work and develop a punch list of all items of the Landlord’s Work which are not complete or which require correction (the “Punch List”). Landlord shall complete and/or correct all items on the Punch List promptly after Landlord receives the Punch List and shall give Tenant written notice when all of the items on the Punch List have been completed and/or corrected. Any items not on the Punch List which could have, with reasonable diligence, been discovered by Xxxxxx and included on the Punch List shall be deemed accepted by Tenant. If Tenant fails to appear for inspection or fails to arrange a different date for inspection with Landlord within five (5) business days after receipt of Landlord’s notice of substantial completion, Tenant shall be deemed to have agreed that no items exist that are incomplete or require correction and therefore Landlord’s Work has been completed and Landlord shall not be required to complete or correct any such items which may in fact exist; or at Landlord’s election, Landlord may prepare and approve the Punch List on Tenant’s behalf. Landlord and Xxxxxx agree to cooperate with each other in scheduling the inspections of the Premises and the Landlord’s Work described in this Paragraph 2, to make their respective personnel and representatives available on reasonable notice to attend such inspections and develop the Punch List within the inspection time described in this Paragraph 2 and to act reasonably in determining whether or not an item of the Landlord’s Work should be included in the Punch List.
3. Tenant Delay. “Tenant Delay” means the occurrence of any one or more of the following which cause a delay in the completion of Landlord’s Work: (i) Tenant is Delinquent (as hereafter defined) in submitting to Landlord any information, authorization or approvals requested by Landlord in connection with the performance of Landlord’s Work; (ii) the performance or completion of any work or activity by a party employed by Xxxxxx, including any of Tenant’s employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors and materialmen; (iii) any postponements or delays requested by Xxxxxx and agreed to by Landlord regarding the completion of the Landlord’s Work; (iv) any error in Landlord’s Work caused by or related to any act or omission by Tenant or its employees or agents; (v) the performance of any TI Changes (as defined below); or (vi) any other act or omission of the Tenant which causes a delay in the completion of Landlord’s Work. For the purposes of this Section, the term “Delinquent” shall mean that the action or communication required of Tenant is not taken within three (3) business days following request by Landlord. Tenant shall pay to Landlord any additional costs incurred by Landlord as a consequence of Xxxxxx Xxxxx as additional rent upon demand.
4. Changes to Landlord’s Work. Tenant will have no right to make any changes (“TI Changes”) to the Plan or Landlord’s Work without the prior written consent of Landlord and the execution by Xxxxxxxx and Tenant of a written change order which specifies (i) the nature of the TI Changes and (ii) an estimate of the cost to Tenant as a result of such TI Changes. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the costs of all TI Changes and Tenant shall pay such costs as additional rent upon demand.
5. Performance of Landlord’s Work. Tenant acknowledges and accepts that the Landlord’s Work with respect to any portion of the Premises currently occupied by Tenant may be performed during regular business hours and that the performance of Landlord’s Work may interfere with the operation of Tenant’s business. Tenant shall provide Xxxxxxxx’s contractor with access at any time to perform such work. Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx’s contractor and to follow all reasonable directions given by Landlord or Xxxxxxxx’s contractor in connection with the performance of the Landlord’s Work. Without limiting the foregoing, Xxxxxx agrees to remove Xxxxxx’s equipment and other personal property from any work area promptly upon receiving a request to do so from Landlord or Landlord’s contractor. Tenant shall determine what measures are necessary to protect Tenant’s computers, equipment, furnishings and other personal property from dirt, dust or paint resulting from Landlord’s Work and Tenant shall be fully responsible for taking such measures. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for injury or damage which may be sustained by the person or property of Tenant, its employees, agents, invitees or customers, or any other person arising out of or during the performance of any Landlord’s Work.
6. Early Access. When, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, Xxxxxxxx’s Work with respect to the portion of the Premises not currently occupied by Xxxxxx has proceeded to a point where Tenant may install wires, cables, furniture, fixtures and equipment (“Tenant’s Work”) therein without interfering with the performance of the Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall so notify Tenant and, from and after such date of notification, Tenant and its contractors shall have access to the such area solely for the purposes of performing the Tenant’s Work. In connection with such access, Xxxxxx agrees (a) to cease promptly upon notice from Landlord any Tenant’s Work which has not been approved by Landlord or is not in compliance with the provisions of the Lease or which shall interfere with or delay the performance of Landlord’s Work, and (b) to comply promptly with all reasonable procedures and regulations prescribed by Landlord from time to time for coordinating the Landlord’s Work the Tenant’s Work. Such access by Tenant shall be subject to all of the applicable provisions of the Lease, except that (x) there shall be no obligation on the part of Tenant solely because of such access to pay any rent, and (y) Tenant shall not be deemed thereby to have taken or accepted possession of the Premises or any portion thereof. If Tenant fails or refuses to comply or cause its contractors to comply with any of the obligations described or referred to above, then immediately upon notice to Tenant, Landlord may revoke Tenant’s right of access. Landlord shall assume no responsibility for the quality or completion of the Tenant Work under this Section, and shall not be responsible for equipment or supplies of Tenant or Tenant’s contractors.
