The Extended Term shall be on the same terms and conditions (except for minimum rental and as otherwise provided herein) set forth in this Lease. The option to extend shall be exercised by Tenant giving written notice to Landlord at least 270 days prior to the expiration of the Term. Upon such exercise, this Lease shall be deemed to be extended without the execution of any further instrument. Term shall refer to the Term of this Lease as so extended. 4.4 Limitation on Exercise.

If any of the foregoing conditions are not met, then any attempt by Tenant to exercise an option to extend hereunder shall, at the election of Landlord, be null and void and this Lease shall terminate on the expiration of the Term. Further, if Tenant is in default on the date an Extended Term is to commence (beyond any applicable cure period), at Landlord's election, such Extended Term shall not commence and this Lease shall terminate on the expiration of the Term. 4.6 Rent During Extended Term. The minimum rental during the first year of the Extended Term shall be the fair-market rent of the Premises as Tenant and Landlord shall reasonably agree, but in no event less than the Minimum rental payable immediately prior to the Extended Term. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to establish the fair-market rent prior to thirty (30) days in advance of the commencement of the Extended Term, the fair-market rent shall be determined by a single certified MAI real estate appraiser (Appraiser) jointly selected by Landlord and Tenant. If they cannot in good faith agree to a single Appraiser by commencement of the Extended Term, the fair-market value shall be determined by a majority of three Appraisers, one selected by Landlord, one selected by Tenant, and one selected by the two previously selected Appraisers. After commencement of the Extended Term, Landlord and Tenant each shall give notice of its selection of a Appraiser to the other party. If either Landlord or Tenant fails or refuses to select an Appraiser within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice of the other party's selection of an Appraiser, the fair-market rent shall be determined by the single Appraiser selected. The Appraiser (or Appraisers) shall determine the fair-market rent as soon as possible. If a majority of the three Appraisers are unable to agree upon the fair-market rent within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the first Appraiser, the fair-market rent shall be an amount equal to the average of the three values determined by the Appraisers, excluding any fair-market rent which is ten percent (10%) greater than or ten percent (10%) less than the middle value. As used herein, fair-market rent shall mean the price that a ready and willing tenant would pay as Minimum rental to a ready and willing landlord if the Premises were offered for lease on the open market for a reasonable period of time and shall be the product of the fair-market monthly rental rate per rentable square foot multiplied by the rentable area of the Premises. The fair-market rent shall be determined by (a) the quality, size and prestige of the Premises, including all improvements to the Premises, (b) recent monthly rental rates for buildings of similar quality, size, and location in the ____________ markets, (c) the duration of the term, and (d) the financial strength of the tenant and any guarantors. Landlord and Tenant each shall pay for the Appraiser so appointed by such party, with both Tenant and Landlord jointly paying for any jointly appointed Appraiser. Until such determination of the fair-market rent, Tenant shall continue to pay the Minimum rental immediately payable prior to commencement of the Extended Term. The minimum rental determined by appraisal as provided for herein shall be subject to increase twelve (12) months following the first day of the first full month after commencement of the Extended Term and every twelve (12) months thereafter pursuant to Section 7.2 (a), but references to the Beginning Index shall refer to the last month prior to the commencement of the Extended Term hereof.
