2. | Amendments to Lease. The Lease is hereby amended as follows: |
(A) Section 1.2.5 of the Lease is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Tenant shall have the right, to be exercised as hereinafter provided, to extend the term of this Lease for two (2) extension periods of five (5) years each, each such period sometimes hereinafter referred to as a “Renewal Term” and such periods sometimes
hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Renewal Terms,” upon the following terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth.
(a) At the time hereinafter set forth for the exercise of each Renewal Term and as of the commencement of such Renewal Term, this Lease shall be in full force and effect and no Event of Default by Tenant shall exist under any of the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained which has not been remedied within the applicable cure period provided for under this Lease.
(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease, each Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Lease, including, but not limited to, Tenant’s obligation to pay Additional Rent, and any other cost or charge which may be due and payable by Tenant under the Lease shall continue to be applicable to such Renewal Term, except that the annual Basic Rent for the first Lease Year of each Renewal Term shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the then Fair Market Basic Rent (as hereinafter defined) for the Premises (the “Renewal Basic Rent”). At the commencement of the second Lease Year and each subsequent Lease Year of each five (5) year Renewal Term, the Basic Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to 102% of the Basic Rent for the immediately preceding Lease Year. All other payments on the part of Tenant to be made as provided in this Lease shall continue to be made during each of the Renewal Terms including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, impositions, insurance premiums and other expenses and charges to the extent payable by Tenant hereunder. Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent of the Premises prior to commencement of a given Renewal Term. Any agreement reached by the parties hereto with respect to such Fair Market Basic Rent for a given Renewal Term shall be expressed in writing and shall be executed by the parties hereto, and a copy thereof delivered to each of the parties. Should Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon the Fair Market Basic Rent of the Premises on or before July 31, 2015 in the case of the first Renewal Term (and Tenant exercises its right, evidenced by written notice, to extend the term of this Lease for the first Renewal Term), or June 1, 2020 in the case of the second Renewal Term (and Tenant exercises its right, evidenced by written notice, to extend the term of this Lease for the second Renewal Term), then such Renewal Basic Rent shall be Fair Market Basic Rent determined by arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2.6 hereof. For the second Renewal Term, within five (5) business days following April 1, 2020, Tenant may request, and Landlord shall provide, no later than five (5) business days following Tenant’s request, Landlord’s determination of Fair Market Basic Rent. “Fair Market Basic Rent” shall mean the Basic Rent, as determined by Landlord and Tenant on the basis of the then prevailing market rental rates and economic terms for office space in Comparable Buildings for tenants seeking to lease approximately the same amount of rentable area as that of the Premises then leased by Tenant pursuant to this Lease. In determining the Fair Market Basic Rent for the Premises, the parties shall consider all elements affecting the proposed lease transaction including, but not limited to, those factors set forth in Section 1.2.6(c).

(c) The Renewal Basic Rent during each Renewal Term shall be payable in equal monthly installments, equal to 1/12 of the annual Renewal Basic Rent, in advance on the first day of each calendar month during a Renewal Term.
(d) Tenant shall exercise its right to extend the term of this Lease for the aforesaid Renewal Terms by notifying Landlord, in writing, of its election to exercise the right to renew and extend the term of this Lease on or before July 31, 2015, in the case of the first Renewal Term, and June 1, 2020 in the case of the second Renewal Term. Time shall be of the essence with respect to such notices.
(e) There shall be no further or additional right to renew this Lease other than as is herein set forth. Any termination of this Lease shall terminate any later right of renewal hereunder.
(B) Section 1.2.6 is hereby amended by deleting the sixth sentence of paragraph (b) relating to Tenant’s right to either accept or reject the Arbitrators’ determination, and the parties acknowledge and agree that the Arbitrator’s determination of Fair Market Base Rental shall be binding on the parties. Section 1.2.6 is further amended by deleting the final sentence of paragraph (b).
