and payable under the Lease through the Termination Date. In the event Tenant fails to provide the Termination Notice and Termination Payment and otherwise comply with the terms to exercise the Termination Option as required above, then all rights of Tenant under this Section 7 shall immediately lapse and be of no further force or effect. If the Termination Option is exercised in accordance herewith, then the Lease shall terminate on the Termination Date as if such date were the Lease Expiration Date originally set forth in this Lease and, accordingly, the Lease Expiration Date shall be amended to be the Termination Date. Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant’s obligations hereunder. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall enter into a termination agreement, in a form reasonably prepared by Landlord, confirming the termination of the Lease in accordance with the terms of this Section 7. The Termination Option shall be personal to the Tenant originally named in this Amendment and cannot be exercised by any assignee, subtenant or any other person or entity.
B.Tenant’s Termination Right on Sale of the Building. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, in the event of any sale of the Building or transfer of the interests in Landlord to an unrelated third party (either, a “Landlord Sale”), Landlord shall immediately provide notice of same to Tenant (the “Sale Notice”). Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease (the “Early Termination Right”) without penalty or payment of any termination fee by delivering notice (the “Early Termination Notice”) of such election to terminate the Lease to Landlord within ninety (90) days following receipt of the Sale Notice, which termination will be effective at Tenant’s option as of (i) the ninetieth (90th) day after Landlord’s receipt of the Early Termination Notice, or (ii) the date of closing of the Landlord Sale, whichever is later. If the Early Termination Right is exercised in accordance herewith, then the Lease shall terminate on the termination date set forth in the Early Termination Notice (the “Early Termination Date”) as if such date were the Lease Expiration Date originally set forth in this Lease and, accordingly, the Lease Expiration Date shall be amended to be the Early Termination Date. If requested by Landlord, Tenant shall enter into a termination agreement, in a form reasonably prepared by Landlord, confirming the termination of the Lease in accordance with the terms of this Section 7. The Early Termination Right shall be personal to the Tenant originally named in this Amendment and cannot be exercised by any assignee, subtenant or any other person or entity.
8.Landlord’s Relocation Right. Landlord shall have the option during the Extension Period to relocate Tenant to alternative space in the Building (the "Relocation Premises"), which Relocation Premises shall be of comparable quality and comparable size or larger to the Premises, in accordance with this Section 8. Landlord shall give Tenant not less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of such relocation, which notice shall include the date on which Tenant shall be required to relocate or move and a description of the Relocation Premises to which Tenant will be relocated. In the event of such relocation, the Relocation Premises shall for all purposes be deemed the Premises hereunder and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect without any change in the other terms or conditions hereof.
9.Broker. Landlord and Xxxxxx recognize Newmark as Landlord’s broker (the "Landlord’s Broker"), as the sole broker with respect to this Amendment and Landlord agrees to be responsible for the payment of any leasing commissions owed to Xxxxxxxx’s Broker in accordance with the terms of a separate commission agreement entered into between Landlord and Landlord’s Broker.
10.Successors; Governing Law. This Amendment shall be (a) binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and (b) governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
11.Ratification; Entire Agreement. Except as expressly amended by this Amendment, all terms, conditions and provisions of the Original Lease are hereby ratified and confirmed and shall continue in full force and effect. This Amendment contains and embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Amendment may not be modified or changed in whole or in part in any manner other than by an instrument in writing duly signed by the parties hereto. In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of the Original Lease and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall control.

12.No Offer. The submission of this Amendment to Tenant does not constitute an offer to amend the Original Lease. This Amendment shall have no force and effect until it is executed and delivered by Tenant to Landlord and executed by Landlord.
13.Counterpart Copies. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Photocopies and electronically scanned or faxed copies of original signature pages, and/or digital or electronic signature pages executed using “DocuSign” or any other method of electronic execution, shall be deemed originals in all respects and binding on the parties.
