The period from May 1, 2020 through the New Expiration Date specified above, shall be referred to herein as the "Extended Term." Tenant shall not have any right to extend the Lease beyond the Extended Term.
4. Base Rent – Expansion Space.

6. Condition of the Expansion Space. Tenant hereby agrees to accept the Existing Premises and the Expansion Space in their "as-is" condition and Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Existing Premises or the Expansion Space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall deliver the Expansion Space to Tenant with the HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems in good working order. If, upon Landlord's delivery of the Expansion Space to Tenant, such systems are not in good working order and Tenant notifies Landlord within thirty (30) days of Landlord's delivery of the Expansion Space that such systems are not in good working order, Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense and as Tenant's sole remedy therefor, put such systems in good working order. Tenant’s failure to notify Landlord that any system was not in good working order in accordance with the foregoing will be deemed Tenant’s acknowledgment that such systems were in good working order upon delivery. Tenant also acknowledges that Landlord has made no representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Existing Premises or the Expansion Space.
7. Early Access. Provided that (i) this Amendment has been fully executed and delivered, (ii) Tenant has paid the increased Security Deposit and first month's rent for the Expansion Space and (iii) Tenant has delivered a certificate of insurance for the Expansion Space evidencing the coverages required by the Lease, Landlord shall allow Tenant access to the Premises beginning on August 1, 2019 for the purpose of Tenant installing furniture and equipment (including telephones and computers) in the Expansion Space. Prior to Tenant's entry into the Expansion Space as permitted by the terms of this Section 7, Tenant shall submit certificates of insurance reasonably acceptable to Landlord and shall submit a schedule to Landlord, for their approval, which schedule shall detail the timing and purpose of Tenant's entry. Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from and indemnify, protect and defend Landlord against any loss or damage to the Expansion Space or the Building and against injury to any persons caused by Tenant's actions pursuant to this Section 7.
8. Parking. Effective as of the Expansion Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Extended Term, Tenant shall rent from Landlord an additional sixteen (16) unreserved parking passes for use in the Parking Facilities. Tenant shall not be charged for such additional parking passes during the Extended Term. Tenant's rental and use of such additional unreserved parking passes shall be in accordance with, and subject to, all provisions of Article 28 of the Lease.
9. Identification and Building Directory Signage. Tenant shall be entitled, at Landlord's sole cost and expense, to (a) Building-standard identification signage outside of the Expansion Space on the floor on which the Expansion Space is located, and (b) to one (1) additional line on the Building directory to display Tenant's name and location in the Building. The location, quality, design, style, and size of such signage shall be consistent with the Landlord's Building standard signage program and will be subject to Landlord's approval, in its sole discretion. All signage will be subject to receipt of any and all required governmental permits and approvals, and shall be subject to any covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Real Property. Any change in Tenant's signage shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

10. Security Deposit. Tenant has previously deposited with Landlord $16,698.00 as a Security Deposit under the Lease. Concurrently with Tenant's execution of this Amendment, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord an additional $24,805.38, for a total Security Deposit under the Lease, as amended herein, of $41,503.38. Landlord shall continue to hold the Security Deposit as increased herein in accordance with the terms and conditions of Article 21 of the Lease.
11. Brokers. Each party represents and warrants to the other that no broker, agent or finder negotiated or was instrumental in negotiating or consummating this Amendment other than Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, representing the Landlord and Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, representing the Tenant. Each party further agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any claim for commission or finder's fee by any other person or entity who claims or alleges that they were retained or engaged by the first party or at the request of such party in connection with this Amendment.
12. Tenant Representations. Each person executing this Amendment on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that: (a) Tenant is properly formed and validly existing under the laws of the state in which Tenant is formed and Tenant is authorized to transact business in the state in which the Building is located; (b) Tenant has full right and authority to enter into this Amendment and to perform all of Tenant's obligations hereunder; and (c) each person (and both persons if more than one signs) signing this Amendment on behalf of Tenant is duly and validly authorized to do so.
13. Defaults. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that, as of the date of this Amendment, Tenant is in full compliance with all terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease and that there are no breaches or defaults under the Lease by Landlord or Tenant, and that Tenant knows of no events or circumstances which, given the passage of time, would constitute a default under the Lease by either Landlord or Tenant.
14. California Certified Access Specialist Inspection. Pursuant to California Civil Code §1938, Landlord hereby states that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) (defined in California Civil Code §55.52(a)(3)). Pursuant to Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby provides the following notification to Tenant: "A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction related accessibility standards within the premises." If Tenant requests to perform a CASp inspection of the Premises, (i) Tenant shall, at its cost, retain a CASp approved by Landlord (provided that Landlord may designate the CASp, at Landlord's option) to perform the inspection of the Premises at a time agreed upon by the parties, (ii) Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of any report or certificate issued by the CASp (the "CASp Report"), and (iii) Tenant shall, at its cost, promptly complete any modifications necessary to correct violations of construction related accessibility standards identified in the CASp Report, which modifications will be completed as an Alteration, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease. Tenant agrees to keep the information in the CASp Report confidential except as necessary for the Tenant to complete such modifications.
