Exhibit 10.36
LEASE AMENDMENT
Date of Amendment: As of July 1, 1998
Date of Lease: As of June 30, 1997
Landlord: MMG Investments, LLC
c/o Southern Showcase Housing, Inc.
0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx
Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000
Tenant: Southern Showcase Housing, Inc.
0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxx
Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000
Premises: That part of the building located 0000
Xxxxxx Xxxxx as indicated on the attached
floor plan, comprising 5,220 SF of usable
area and 6,152 SF of rentable area; plus all
or part, at Tenant's option, of the
remaining usable area and rentable area in
the building, which total remaining area
comprises an additional 5,777 SF of usable
area and 6,808 SF of rentable area, which
part, when identified by Tenant as provided
in this Lease Amendment, will be shown on a
marked floor plan to be incorporated into
the Lease as an exhibit depicting the exact
configuration of the Premises
RECITALS:
Under the Lease, Tenant leased roughly the south half of the building (the
"Existing Space"). Tenant now wants to reserve the remaining north half of the
building (the "Reservation Space") and agrees to pay $4.00 per rentable sq. ft
for the Reservation Space, plus full CAM Costs and RET attributable to the
Reservation Space, until such time as Tenant takes occupancy of any part of the
Reservation Space as Tenant wants to occupy (the "Expansion Space"). When Tenant
takes occupancy of the Expansion Space, rent and other charges attributable to
the Expansion Space will be adjusted to match the rent and other charges for the
Existing Space then due under the Lease based upon the additional square footage
in the Expansion Space.

In addition, when Tenant gets ready to expand into the Expansion Space,
Tenant either may request that Landlord do the work necessary to upfit the
Expansion Space to the same level of fit and finish as in the Existing Space, or
may do such work itself. If Tenant does such work itself, Tenant may deduct from
the rent otherwise payable for the Expansion Space an amount which, on an
after-tax basis, will allow Tenant to recover its costs to do the work, plus
interest on the unpaid balance at 8% a year.
Landlord and Tenant want to set forth their agreement in this Lease
Amendment.
AGREEMENT:
In consideration of the agreements in this Lease Amendment, Landlord and
Tenant agree as follows:
1. PREMISES and Expansion Work
The Premises defined as set forth opposite the introductory heading,
"Premises," in the Lease is amended by substituting the Premises set forth
opposite the introductory heading, "Premises," above. All references to the
Premises in the Lease, as amended, shall refer to the Premises as amended by
this Lease Amendment.
When Tenant wants to occupy the Expansion Space, Tenant shall notify
Landlord of the exact configuration of the Expansion Space and whether Tenant
wants to do the Expansion Work itself or whether Tenant wants Landlord to do the
Expansion Work. The "Expansion Work" is all work to improve the Expansion Space
in the same manner, and to the same level of fit and finish, as the Existing
Space was improved before Tenant's occupancy, including partition walls with an
appropriate finish, carpeting, ceiling lights and ceiling tiles, utility systems
and fixtures, and other office fixtures.
Whoever does the Expansion Work shall do it promptly and in a good and
workmanlike manner. If Tenant does the Expansion Work, then Tenant may deduct
from the rent otherwise due and payable that monthly amount, not to exceed the
additional rent due for the Expansion Space, that will repay Tenant its
reasonable costs for the Expansion Work, plus interest at 8% a year on the
unrecovered balance, taking into account only the after-tax savings to Tenant
from the rent reductions.
For example, if the additional rent payable for the Expansion Space were
$9,000 a month, and if state and Federal
3
taxes combined amounted to 40% of Tenant's income, then Tenant's after-tax
savings for a rent reduction in the full amount of $9,000/mo. would amount to
$5,400. If Tenant's costs to do the Expansion Work were $110,000, and if
interest over the rent deduction period were about $20,000, then Tenant could
deduct the full $9,000/mo for 24 months ($5,400 X 24 = $129,600 = $110,000 +
$19,600)
