ARTICLE I. PREMISES AND IMPROVEMENTS In consideration of the rents and covenants herein set forth, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby rents from Landlord, the premises described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof together with any and all improvements thereon (the "Leased Premises”). The Leased Premises shall be occupied by the Tenant. ARTICLE II. TITLE: QUIET ENJOYMENT So long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant shall have peaceful and quiet enjoyment, use and possession of the Leased Premises without hindrance on the part of the Landlord or anyone claiming by, through, or under Landlord. ARTICLE III. TERM Section 3.1. Commencement and Expiration. The term of this Lease shall commence on August 1, 2010 (the "Date of Commencement") and shall expire July 31, 2015. All references to the “term” of this Lease shall, unless the context indicates a different meaning, be deemed to be a reference to the term described herein. Section 3.2. Renewal. This Lease may be renewed for an additional period as may be mutually agreed by the Landlord and Tenant. If renewal is not agreed upon by the Landlord and Tenant, this Lease shall expire upon expiration of the initial term. Section 3.3. Early Termination. At any time during any term of this Lease, upon six months’ written notice to the Tenant, provided pursuant to Section 18.3 herein, the Landlord may terminate this Lease at its discretion, without further obligation after said termination. ARTICLE IV. RENT Section 4.1. Annual Rent. Commencing upon the Date of Commencement, during the first three years of this Lease, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord annual rent of Six Thousand Dollars ($6,000.00), payable in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each month during the term hereof. After the third year of this Lease, the rent for subsequent years of the Lease shall be indexed for inflation and shall be calculated by first establishing a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the level of the CPI Index (as defined herein) as of the first day of that month which is two months before the month in which the Date of Commencement occurs in the subsequent years, and the denominator of which shall be the level of the CPI Index as of the first day of that month which is two months before the initial Date of Commencement. The resulting fraction shall be multiplied by the rent agreed upon or established for the first year of the term of the Lease to determine the annual rent due for the year. The rental figure shall be revised each year based upon this formula. The CPI Index shall be the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (all items, all urban consumers, 1982-1984 = 100). If the CPI Index shall be discontinued, Landlord shall designate an appropriate substitute index or formula having the same general acceptance as to use and reliability as the CPI Index and such substitute shall be used as if originally designated herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the rent due for any lease year decrease below the rent payable for the first year. Section 4.2. Address for Rent Payment.
