In order to exercise the Contraction Option, Tenant must fully and completely satisfy each and every one of the following conditions: # Tenant must give Landlord written notice ("Contraction Notice") of its exercise of the Contraction Option, which Contraction Notice must # state the effective date of such termination ("Contraction Date"), which date must be after the last day of the thirtieth (30th) full calendar month of the Extended Term, # be delivered to Landlord at least one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Contraction Date, and # designate the Contraction Space (which designation shall be subject to the parameters described in this [Section 8] above and shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval); and # at the time of the delivery of the Contraction Notice to Landlord, Tenant shall not be in default under the Lease, as amended, after expiration of applicable notice and cure periods. If Tenant properly exercises its Contraction Option, # upon the Contraction Date, the Contraction Space shall no longer be a part of the New Premises and Tenant shall have surrendered and delivered exclusive possession of the Contraction Space to Landlord and, thereupon, Tenant's Proportionate Share and Tenant's parking allocation shall be reduced on a pro rata basis, # notwithstanding [Section 8(A)] above, from and after the Contraction Date, Tenant shall still be required to pay Base Rent for the Contraction Space throughout the remainder of the Extended Term, but the rate of Base Rent payable for such space shall be reduced from the rate specified in [Section 5] of this Third Amendment above by per rentable square foot of the Contraction Space per year, and # Landlord and Tenant shall execute a new amendment to the Lease documenting such modification to the New Premises upon the terms specified in this [Section 8].

Following the surrender of the Contraction Space to Landlord, and when Landlord secures a new tenant for the Contraction Space, Landlord shall perform the following work (collectively, the "Demising Work"): # install a full-height demising wall(s) to separate the Contraction Space from Tenant’s remaining space in the New Premises; and # separate the systems serving the Contraction Space from Tenant’s remaining space in the New Premises. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the costs incurred by Landlord for such demising wall(s) within ten (10) business days after delivery of an invoice therefor; however, the cost of systems separation and all other costs of such separation shall be borne solely by Landlord. If Tenant properly exercises its Contraction Option, Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord will be performing such demising work during the Extended Term, and Landlord's performance of such work shall not be deemed a constructive eviction of Tenant, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any abatement of rent in connection therewith. However, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct those portions of the Demising Work which are most likely to be disruptive to Tenant's business (specifically including, but not limited to, demolition work) either # during non-business hours, or # on weekends, and to the extent that any disruptive work needs to be done during normal business hours, Landlord shall endeavor to complete such portion of the work in as minimally disruptive a manner as practicable. Once commenced, Landlord shall diligently pursue the completion of the Demising Work.

If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

If the Optionee’s termination of employment is for any other reason, the Option (to the extent exercisable at the time of the Optionee’s termination of employment) shall be exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days following such termination of employment, and shall thereafter terminate, except that with respect to an Option initially designated as a Nonqualified Stock Option, if the Optionee’s termination of employment occurs within 12 months after a Change in Control, the Option shall be exercisable for three years following the termination of employment.

Exercise of Option After Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, if the Optionholder’s employment with # the Company, # an Affiliate, or # a corporation (or parent or subsidiary corporation of such corporation) issuing or assuming a stock option in a transaction to which section 424(a) of the Code applies, is terminated for any reason other than by disability (within the meaning of [section 22] (e)(3) of the Code) or death, the Optionholder may exercise the rights which were available to the Optionholder at the time of such termination only within three months from the date of termination. If Optionholder’s employment is terminated as a result of disability, such rights may be exercised within twelve months from the date of termination. Upon the death of Optionholder, his or her Designated Beneficiary shall have the right, at any time within twelve months after the date of death, to exercise in whole or in part any rights that were available to the Optionholder at the time of death.

In the event of termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service (other than as a result of Participant’s death, disability or termination for Cause), the Participant shall have the right to exercise an Option at any time within 90 days following such termination to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option at the date of such termination.

An Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent it is exercised (if permitted by the terms of the Option) # more than three months after the date of a Participant’s Termination of Service if termination was for reasons other than death or disability, # more than one year after the date of a Participant’s Termination of Service if termination was by reason of disability, or # after the Participant has been on leave of absence for more than 90 days, unless the Participant’s reemployment rights are guaranteed by statute or contract.
