Exercise. Provided that no monetary or material non-monetary Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of exercise of an Extension Option (defined below), and Tenant has not assigned this Lease (except to a Permitted Transferee or an Affiliate, as permitted by Article VII) either at the time of exercise or at the commencement of the applicable Extension Period, (defined below), Tenant shall have two (2) options (each, an “Extension Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease, each for an additional five (5) year period (each, an “Extension Period”) after the expiration of the initial Term, or the initial Extension Period, as applicable. Tenant may extend the Term for the entire Premises only. Each Extension Option shall be exercisable only by written notice given by Tenant to Landlord (the “Extension Election Notice”) not later than twenty-four (24) months, nor earlier than thirty-sixth (36th) months, prior to the expiration of the initial Term or the first Extension Period, as applicable. In the event that Tenant does not timely exercise an Extension Option, then such Extension Option (and the second Extension Option, if applicable) shall be null and void and of no further force or effect, time being of the essence in the exercise of each Extension Option and it being acknowledged and agreed by Tenant that Landlord shall be entitled to rely on any failure by Tenant to give written notice of its exercise of its Extension Option by the date set forth herein for such exercise thereof.

Exercise. Tenant shall exercise an Extension Option, if at all, by giving Landlord unconditional, irrevocable written notice of such election not earlier than 450 days and not later than 360 days prior to the Expiration Date (as the same may have been extended), the time of such exercise being of the essence (the “Exercise Period”). Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 3.3, upon the giving of such notice, this Lease and the Term shall be extended without execution or delivery of any other or further documents, with the same force and effect as if the applicable Extension Term had originally been included in the Term.

Extension Options. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two (2) consecutive options to extend the Term (each, an “Extension Option” and collectively, the “Extension Options”) for successive periods of five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”) commencing on the first day following the Expiration Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Paragraph; provided, however, that # an Extension Option shall be exercised, if at all, only with respect to the entire Premises; # the second Extension Option may be exercised only if the first Extension Option has been duly exercised; and # if Tenant is in monetary or material non-monetary default beyond applicable notice and cure periods under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease either at the time Tenant exercises an Extension Option or upon the commencement of the applicable Extension Term, Landlord shall have, in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies provided in this Lease, the right to terminate such Extension Option and to unilaterally nullify Tenant’s exercise of such Extension Option, in which event this Lease shall expire on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, and Tenant shall have no further rights under this Lease to renew or extend the Term.

Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Article 9, Tenant shall have the right to exercise the First Extension Option and the Second Extension Option, provided that # no monetary or material non-monetary default after notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period has occurred and is then continuing at the time Tenant gives the Extension Notice, # Tenant shall be in actual occupancy of at least seventy (70%) of the rentable square foot area of the Extension Premises at the time Tenant gives the Extension Notice and on the date immediately preceding the Applicable Commencement Date, and # with respect to the Second Extension Option, Tenant shall have theretofore exercised the First Extension Option and selected the Five Year Option with respect thereto. Subject to the provisions of this Article 9, the Extension Term shall commence on the Applicable Commencement Date and shall expire on the Applicable Expiration Date, unless the Extension Term shall sooner end pursuant to any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease or pursuant to Legal Requirements. Tenant may exercise each Extension Option by giving Landlord an Extension Notice no later than the date that is seven hundred thirty (730) days prior to the Applicable Commencement Date, as to which date time is of the essence, and upon the giving of such notice, subject to the provisions of this Article 9, the term of the Lease shall be extended for the Extension Term with respect to the Extension Premises without execution or delivery of any other or further document, with the same force and effect as if the Extension Term had originally been included in the term of the Lease. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease shall continue in full force and effect during the Extension Term with respect to the Extension Premises, including items of additional rent and escalations (except as hereinafter set forth) which shall remain payable on the terms herein set forth (provided, however, that Tenant shall have no further right to extend the term of this Lease beyond the First Extension Term (if Tenant shall have selected (or been deemed to have selected) the Ten Year Option) or Second Extension Term, as applicable, for any reason).

Exercise of Option. An Option to Extend shall be exercised by , if at all, only in the manner set forth in this Section 2.2. shall deliver notice (the “Exercise Notice”) to not more than fifteen (15) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Lease Term or the applicable Option Term, as applicable, stating that is exercising its Option to Extend, which election shall be irrevocable regardless of the fact that the

Option to Extend. Tenant shall have the right, privilege and option to extend the term of this Lease for three (3) successive periods of one (1) year each under the same terms and conditions of this Lease then in effect. Tenant, if it elects to exercise any option, shall do so by giving Landlord written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or the then-current Option Period, as the case may be.

(ii) “Second Extension Option” shall mean Tenant’s right to extend the term of this Lease with respect to the Extension Premises for an additional term (the “Second Extension Term”) of five (5) years (but only if Tenant has exercised the First Extension Option and selected the Five Year Option for purposes thereof) commencing on the day immediately following the Expiration Date of the First Extension Term (the “Commencement Date of the Second Extension Term”) and ending on the last day of the month in which occurs the five (5) year anniversary of the Expiration Date of the First Extension Term (the “Expiration Date of the Second Extension Term”). For purposes of clarification, if Tenant shall have exercised the First Extension Option and selected the Ten Year Option for purposes thereof, Tenant shall have no further right to extend the term of the Lease and the Second Extension Option shall be void and of no further force and effect (it being the intention of Landlord and Tenant that under no circumstances shall the term of the Lease be extended pursuant to this Article 9 beyond the date that is ten (10) years following the New Expiration Date).
