the Expansion Space in its existing condition, "as is"; and Landlord is making
no promise, agreement, representation or warrant to Tenant with respect to the
condition, repair, alteration or improvement of the Expansion Space.
6. Subject to the rights, if any, of Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxx, Tenant shall
have the "right of first refusal" to lease any other space on the 29th floor
of the Building, as provided in this Paragraph 6. If Landlord obtains a
letter of intent or a written lease executed by a prospective tenant for the
leasing of any space on the 29th floor of the Building, Landlord shall give
Tenant written notice thereof, together with a copy of the letter of intent or
written lease (as the case may be). Tenant then shall have seven (7) business
days in which to notify Landlord in writing that Tenant wishes to lease the
subject space on all of the terms and conditions set forth in the letter of
intent or written lease (as the case may be). If Tenant so notifies Landlord,
Tenant shall be deemed to have exercised its right of first refusal to lease
the subject space; and Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a written
amendment to this Lease, adding the subject space to the Premises and
incorporating all of the business terms and conditions set forth in the letter
of intent or written lease (as the case may be), including but not limited to
those concerning rent, security deposit, length of term, Tenant's
proportionate share, construction of tenant improvements and other tenant
concessions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the length of the term for the
leasing of the subject space shall be coterminous with the Term of this Lease
if Tenant exercises its right to first refusal during the first thirty-six
(36) full calendar months hereafter. Such amendment shall be entered into
between Landlord and Tenant within five (5) business days after Tenant
exercises its right of first refusal as aforesaid or fails to execute a
written lease amendment pursuant thereto as aforesaid, Tenant's right of first
refusal shall be deemed to have lapsed with respect to the subject space; and
Landlord will be free to enter into a written lease with the prospective
tenant on substantially the same terms and conditions as are contained in the
letter of intent or written lease that was tendered by the prospective tenant.
7. Except as expressly stated herein, the Lease shall be and remain in
full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Third Amendment to
Lease as of the date and year above first written.
