(Check Method(s) to be Used and Fill in Appropriately)
|_| I. Cost of Living Adjustment(s) (COLA)

the Base Rent shall be adjusted by the change, if any, from the Base Month

of the U.S Department of Labor for (select one) |_| CPI W (Urban Wage Earners
and Clerical Workers) or |_| CPI U (All Urban Consumers) for (Fill in Urban
Area)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Items (1982-1984=100) herein referred to as "CPI"
b The monthly rent payable in accordance with paragraph A I a. of this

5 of the attached Lease shall be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which
shall be the CPI of the calendar month 2 months prior to the month(s) specified
in paragraph A.I.a. above during which the adjustment is to take effect, and the
denominator of which shall be the CPI of the calendar month which is 2 months

c In the event the compilation and/or publication of the CPI shall be
transferred to any other governmental department or bureau or agency or shall be
discontinued, then the index most nearly the same as the CPI shall be used to

alternative index, then the matter shall be submitted for decision to the
American Arbitration Association in accordance with the then rules of said
Association and the decision of the arbitrators shall be binding upon the
parties The cost of said Arbitration shall be paid equally by the Parties

(ii) The 3 arbitrators shall within 30 days
of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to what the
actual MRV for the Premises is, and whether Lessor's or Lessee's submitted MRV
is the closest thereto. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be
binding on the Parties. The submitted MRV which is determined to be the closest
to the actual MRV shall thereafter be used by the Parties.

appoint an arbitrator within the specified 15 days, the arbitrator timely
appointed by one of them shall reach a decision on his or her own, and said
decision shall be binding on the Parties

shall be paid by the party whose submitted MRV is not selected, i.e. the one
that is NOT the closest to the actual MRV
2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the new MRV shall not be
