<p><strong>Memo to File<br />
Project Number: 4MS0260</strong></p>

<p><strong>Documentation to Explain the Absence of Competition &ndash; Lease Extension Within SLAT</strong></p>

<p><strong>Lease number LMS60362 occupied by located at will expire on October<br />
31, 2026. It has been determined that the government requires an extension for 120 months as noted in the Acquisition Plan located in the lease file.<br />
The estimated net annual rent of this action is $ , which is within the Simplified Lease Acquisition Threshold<br />

federally controlled space due to documented organizational, financial, or other uncertainties<br />

Cost based rationale<br />
Lease extensions represent short-term contracting actions which are necessary to protect the occupancy rights of the<br />

Extensions avoid the costs associated with holdover tenancies. Additionally, the government cannot reasonably<br />
expect to recover the costs associated with relocation of the tenant agency through full and open competition of a<br />
separate short-term lease to cover the term of this extension.<br />
Mission based rationale<br />
The agency&rsquo;s mission for this location requires a unique location and cannot be satisfied through any alternative<br />
locations. The agency&rsquo;s mission and justification for a unique location is summarized below:</strong></p>
