reduce the sentence on the conviction for attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree to a term of 22/s to 8 years, and otherwise affirmed.

As the People correctly concede, defendant was improperly sentenced as a second felony offender on his conviction for attempted criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree. Accordingly, we modify the sentence to 22/s to 8 years. We decline to make any further reduction of defendant’s sentence. Concur — Sullivan, J. P., Rosenberger, Wallach and Tom, JJ.
