Miscellaneous.

This Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the State in which the Building is located. Any terms used in this Amendment as defined terms, but which are not defined herein, shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Lease. The submission of this Amendment to Tenant for examination and consideration does not constitute an offer to amend the Lease, and this Amendment shall become effective only upon the execution and delivery thereof by both Landlord and Tenant. The Lease, as amended hereby, contains the entire agreement between the parties, and no representations, inducements, promises, agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties not embodied in the Lease, as amended hereby, shall be of any force or effect. Time is of the essence as to all of the obligations of Tenant under the Lease and this Amendment. This Amendment has been negotiated "at arms length" by Landlord and Tenant, each having the opportunity to be represented by legal counsel. Therefore, this Amendment shall not be strictly construed against either party by reason of the fact that one party may have drafted this Amendment. This Amendment may be executed by the parties signing different counterparts of this Amendment, which counterparts together shall constitute the agreement of the parties.
