WHEREAS, all terms defined in the Lease and used herein shall have the same meaning herein as in the Lease unless otherwise provided herein; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to further amend the Lease to (i) extend the term for the Building #3 Space only for one (1) additional year (the "Fifth Renewal Term"), (ii) increase the monthly rental during the Fifth Renewal Term, (iii) provide for further extensions of the term of the Lease as to the Building #3 Space only, and (iv) establish Tenant's right to terminate the Lease with respect to the Building #3 Space only during the Fifth Renewal Term.
NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto promise, covenant and agree that the Lease be and is hereby amended as follows:

1. TERM: The term of the Lease as it applies to the Building #3 Space only is hereby extended for the Fifth Renewal Term to commence immediately following the expiration of the Fourth Renewal Term. The expiration date of the term of the Lease for the Building #3 Space only, as extended by the Fifth Renewal Term, is hereby changed from March 31, 2011, to March 31, 2012.
2. RENT: Tenant shall pay to Landlord as monthly rental for the Leased Premises the following amounts at the following times:

A. | Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord on the first (1 st) day of each calendar month for the balance of the Fourth Renewal Term, to and including June 1, 2011, as monthly rental for the Leased Premises (i.e. Buildings 18 and 18A, the Building 18 Expansion Space and the Building #3 Space), the amount of $38,942.23.

B. | Beginning on July 1, 2011, and on the first (1 st) day of each succeeding calendar month thereafter to and including March 1, 2012, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as monthly rental for the Leased Premises (i.e. Buildings 18 and 18A, the Building 18 Expansion Space and the Building #3 Space) the amount of $42,023.59.

C. | In the event the Fifth Renewal Term terminates or expires for the Building #3 Space for whatever cause, beginning on the first (1 st) day of the month following the termination or expiration of the Fifth

Renewal Term, and on the first (1 st) day of each calendar month thereafter during the balance of Second Extended Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as monthly rental for the Leased Premises (i.e. Buildings 18 and 18A and the Building 18 Expansion Space) the amount of $31,997.49.
The rentals under this paragraph 2 shall be payable in advance, without demand, deduction or set off.

The Sixth Renewal Term shall commence immediately following expiration of the Fifth Renewal Term, and the Seventh Renewal Term shall commence immediately following expiration of the Sixth Renewal Term, if
2

applicable. So long as Tenant is not in default of the Lease, Tenant may exercise the right to extend the term of the Lease for the Sixth Renewal Term and Seventh Renewal Term only by delivering to Landlord written notice of Tenant's exercise of such right no less than three (3) months prior to the expiration of the extant renewal term, time being of the essence. The terms and conditions of the Fifth Renewal Term shall continue in full force and effect for the Sixth Renewal Term and the Seventh Renewal Term, if applicable, except that the monthly rental for the Leased Premises during the Sixth Renewal Term and the Seventh Renewal Term, if applicable, shall be $42,259.50.
Notwithstanding the above, if Tenant, itself or its affiliate or subsidiary is in default under the Lease or is not in full possession of the Building #3 Space continuously during the last three (3) months of the Fifth Renewal Term or the Sixth Renewal Term, whichever is applicable, and at the commencement of the applicable renewal term, Landlord may, at its option, terminate the Lease as to the Building #3 Space only, as of the last day of the Fifth Renewal Term or the Sixth Renewal Term, whichever is applicable.
4. RIGHT OF TERMINATION: Tenant shall have the right and option to terminate the Lease and the term thereof as to the Building #3 Space only, effective November 30, 2011. To exercise said right, and as conditions precedent to such termination, Tenant shall i) notify Landlord in writing of its intent to terminate no later than September 1, 2011, time being of the essence; ii) pay to Landlord as a termination fee and not as a penalty the amount of $1,229.22, on the first day of the calendar month immediately following the date of the notice, and iii) not be in default of the Lease. Said termination fee is in addition to the monthly rental due under the Lease. If the notice is duly given, the termination fee is paid as aforesaid, and Tenant is not in default under the Lease, the Lease and the term thereof, as to the Building #3 Space only, shall terminate on November 30, 2011, as though such date was the scheduled termination date of the Lease for the Building #3 Space, and the Lease for Buildings 18 and 18A and the Building 18 Expansion Space shall remain in full force and effect.
5. BROKER: Except as provided below, Landlord and Tenant each hereby warrants to the other that no real estate broker has been involved in this transaction on its behalf and that no finder's fees or real estate commissions have been earned by any third party. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify Tenant for any liability or claims for commissions or fees arising from a breach of this warranty by it.
