All Rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States at the address of Landlord set forth in this Lease or at such other place as Landlord in writing may designate, without notice, offset, demand, or deduction (except as otherwise set forth herein).

3.2 Rent Adjustment. Commencing on the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date and thereafter annually on each subsequent anniversary of the Commencement Date during the original ten (10) year Term of this Lease, monthly Rent payable hereunder shall be increased from that payable in the immediately preceding lease year by the lesser of (i) two percent (2%), or (ii) the same percentage as the increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index "U.S. City Average, All Items, All Urban Consumers, 1982-1984" published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (the "CPI"), during the immediately preceding lease year, determined by comparing the CPI most recently published on the first day of the immediately preceding lease year and that most recently published at the end of said preceding lease year. In no event shall Rent increase by more than two percent (2%) during any single year. In the event the CPI shall hereafter be converted to a different standard reference base or otherwise revised, the determination of the percentage increase shall be made with the use of such conversion factor, formula, or table for converting such index as may be published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

All terms and conditions of this Lease shall remain the same during the renewal term(s), except that Rent to be paid hereunder shall be as provided for in Section 4.2 hereof.
