The Original Lease was amended by that certain First Amendment to Lease dated as of May, 2005, by and between R&D Portfolio Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, successor-in-interest in the Lease to Original Landlord (“Second Landlord”), and Tenant. The Original Lease, as amended by the First Amendment, may be referred to herein as the “Lease.” Landlord is the successor-in-interest in the Lease to Second Landlord.

B. By this Second Amendment, Landlord and Tenant desire to reduce the Existing Premises (as defined below), extend the Term of the Lease, and to otherwise modify the Lease as provided herein.

C. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms as used herein shall have the same meanings as given thereto in the Lease.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

A G R E E M E N T:

1. The Existing Premises. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that pursuant to the Lease, Landlord currently leases to Tenant and Tenant currently leases from Landlord that certain space in the Building containing 17,101 rentable square feet located on the second (2^nd) floor of the Building and known as Suites 200 and 210 (collectively, the “Existing Premises”), as further described in the Lease.

2. Reduction of Existing Premises. That certain space on the second (2nd) floor of the Building and consisting of a portion of Suite 210, as outlined on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and made a part hereof, may be referred to herein as the “Reduction Space.” Landlord and Tenant hereby stipulate and agree that the Reduction Space contains 11,266 rentable square feet. On or before the later of May 1, 2011, or (ii) the date of Landlord’s Substantial Completion of Landlord’s Work in the Reduced Premises pursuant to Exhibit C attached hereto (“Reduction Commencement Date”), Tenant shall surrender and deliver exclusive possession of the Reduction Space to Landlord in vacant, broom clean condition and

otherwise in accordance with Section 9 of the Original Lease; provided, however, that Tenant may remain in the Reduction Space for an additional five (5) business days in order to vacate and perform its surrender obligations with respect to such space. Accordingly, effective upon the Reduction Commencement Date, the Existing Premises shall be decreased to exclude the Reduction Space and Tenant shall be released from its obligations under the Lease (as it pertains to the Reduction Space only) except for those terms and conditions which expressly survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease pertaining to the Reduction Space. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that such deletion of the Reduction Space from the Existing Premises shall, effective as of the Reduction Commencement Date, decrease the number of rentable square feet leased by Tenant in the Building to a total of 5,852 rentable square feet (sometimes referred to herein as the “Reduced Premises” or “Premises”), which Reduced Premises is depicted on Exhibit “A” attached hereto. If Tenant fails to vacate and surrender and deliver exclusive possession of the Reduction Space to Landlord on or before the Reduction Commencement Date, then the holdover provisions of Section 9 of the Original Lease shall apply. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that (a) no other person, firm or entity has any right, title or interest in the Reduction Space; and (b) Tenant has the full right, legal power and actual authority to enter into this Second Amendment and to terminate the Lease as to the Reduction Space without the consent of any person, firm or entity. Tenant further represents and warrants to Landlord that as of the date hereof there are no, and as of the Reduction Commencement Date there shall not be any, mechanics’ liens or other liens encumbering all or any portion of the Reduction Space by virtue of any act or omission on the part of Tenant, its predecessors, contractors, agents, employees, successors, sublessees or assigns.

Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, in the event Landlord’s Work is not Substantially Completed by Landlord on or before February 1, 2011 then the Monthly Basic Rent payable by Tenant for the Premises shall, until the Reduction Commencement Date, be Seven Thousand Nine Hundred and 20/100 Dollars ($7,900.20).

3. New Term. The Lease Termination Date ‘shall be extended such that the Lease shall terminate on the date immediately preceding the thirty-sixth (36th) month anniversary of the Reduction Commencement Date (“New Termination Date”); provided, however, that if the Reduction Commencement Date falls on a date other than the first (1st) day of a month, the New Termination Date shall be the last day of the month which is thirty-six (36) months after the month in which the Reduction Commencement Date occurs, unless extended pursuant to this Second Amendment. The period from the Reduction Commencement Date through the New Termination Date specified above, shall be referred to herein as the “New Term.” Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, execute and deliver a memorandum agreement provided by Landlord in the form of Exhibit “B” attached hereto, setting forth the actual Reduction Commencement Date, New Termination Date and, if necessary, a revised rent schedule. Should Tenant fail to do so within five (5) business days after Landlord’s request, the information set forth in such memorandum provided by Landlord shall be conclusively presumed to be agreed to by Tenant and correct.

4. Monthly Basic Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, during the New Term, Tenant shall pay, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 and subject to abatement pursuant to Section 5 below, Monthly Basic Rent for the Reduced Premises as follows:

5. Rental Abatement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease or in this Second Amendment, and provided that Tenant faithfully performs all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, as amended by this Second Amendment, Landlord hereby agrees to ▇▇▇▇▇ Tenant’s obligation to pay fifty percent (50%) of Monthly Basic Rent for the first six (6) full months of the New Term. During such abatement period, Tenant shall still be responsible for the payment of all of its other monetary obligations under the Lease, as amended by this Second Amendment. In the event of a default by Tenant under the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Second Amendment, that results in early termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 23 of the Original Lease, then as a part of the recovery set forth in Section 23 of the Original Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to the recovery of the Monthly Basic Rent that was abated under the provisions of this Section 5.

6. Tenant’s Percentage and Base Year. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, during the New Term, (i) Tenant’s Percentage for the Reduced Premises shall be deemed changed to 12.98%, and (ii) the Base Year will b9 deemed changed to the calendar year 2011.

Landlord shall continue to hold the remaining Security Deposit of Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Two and 13/100 Dollars ($8,802.13) (as decreased herein) in accordance with the terms and conditions of Article 5 of the Original Lease.

WORK LETTER AGREEMENT

This Work Letter Agreement (“Work Letter Agreement”) sets forth the terms and conditions relating to the construction of improvements for the Reduced Premises. All references in this Work Letter Agreement to “the Second Amendment” shall mean the relevant portions of the Second Amendment to which this Work Letter Agreement is attached as Exhibit “C.”

SECTION 1

BASE, SHELL AND CORE

Landlord has constructed, through its contractor, the base, shell and core of the Reduced Premises and of the Building (collectively, the “Base, Shell and Core”), and Tenant shall accept the Base, Shell and Core in its current “As-Is” condition existing as of the date of this Second Amendment. Landlord shall install in the Reduced Premises certain “Tenant Improvements” (as defined below) pursuant to the provisions of this Work Letter Agreement. Except for the Tenant Improvement work described in this Work Letter Agreement, Landlord shall not be obligated to make or pay for any alterations or improvements to the Reduced Premises, the Building or the Project.

SECTION 2

CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS FOR THE PREMISES

Prior to the execution of this Second Amendment, Landlord and Tenant have approved a detailed space plan for the construction of certain improvements in the Reduced Premises, which space plan is attached hereto as Schedule “1” (the “Final Space Plan”), which improvement work is contemplated to consist of the following: (i) install a recess double door entry off of the lobby of the Reduced Premises, (ii) demise ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, including all electrical, heating, and air conditioning (iii) install new demising walls for Suite 210, (iv) recarpet the carpeted area of the Reduced Premises, (v) repaint the painted areas of the Reduced Premises, (v) provide dedicated HVAC to the server room in the Reduced Premises, and (vi) install a new lab/testing room in the Reduced Premises (collectively, “Landlord’s Work”). Any above Building-standard items shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Based upon and in conformity with the Final Space Plan, Landlord shall, if Landlord determines the same to be reasonably necessary, cause its architect and engineers to prepare and deliver to Tenant, for Tenant’s approval, detailed specifications and engineered working drawings for the tenant improvements shown on the Final Space Plan (the “Working Drawings”). The Working Drawings (if any) shall incorporate modifications to the Final Space Plan as necessary to comply with the floor load and other structural and system requirements of the Building. To the extent that the finishes and specifications are not completely set forth in the Final Space Plan for any portion of the tenant improvements depicted thereon, the actual specifications and finish work shall be in accordance with the specifications for the Building’s standard tenant improvement items, as determined by Landlord. Within three (3) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the

Exhibit “C”

Working Drawings, Tenant shall approve or disapprove the same, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Tenant may only disapprove the Working Drawings to the extent such Working Drawings are inconsistent with the Final Space Plan and only if Tenant delivers to Landlord, within such three (3) business days period, specific changes proposed by Tenant which are consistent with the Final Space Plan and do not constitute changes which would result in any of the circumstances described in items (i) through (iv) below. If any such revisions are timely and properly proposed by Tenant, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers to revise the Working Drawings to incorporate such revisions and submit the same for Tenant’s approval in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and the parties shall follow the foregoing procedures for approving the Working Drawings until the same are finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Working Drawings, the same shall be known as the “Approved Working Drawings.” The tenant improvements shown on the Final Space Plan and the Approved Working Drawings (if any) shall be referred to herein as the “Tenant Improvements.” Tenant shall make no changes, change orders or modifications to the Final Space Plan and Final Working Drawings (if any) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion if such change or modification would: (i) directly or indirectly delay the Substantial Completion of the Reduced Premises; (ii) increase the cost of designing or constructing the Tenant Improvements above the cost of the tenant improvements depicted in the Final Space Plan; (iii) be of a quality lower than the quality of the standard tenant improvement items for the Building; and/or (iv) require any changes to the Base, Shell and Core or structural improvements or systems of the Building. The Final Space Plan, Working Drawings (if any) and Approved Working Drawings (if any) shall be collectively referred to herein as, the “Construction Drawings.”

SECTION 3

CONSTRUCTION AND PAYMENT FOR COSTS OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS

Landlord shall cause a contractor designated by Landlord (the “Contractor”) to (i) obtain all applicable building permits for construction of the Tenant Improvements, and (ii) construct the Tenant Improvements as depicted on the Final Space Plan and the Approved Working Drawings (if any), in compliance with such building permits and all applicable laws in effect at the time of construction, and in good workmanlike manner. Except as otherwise provided in this Work Letter Agreement, Landlord shall pay for the cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements. The cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall include Landlord’s construction supervision and management fee in an amount equal to the product of (i) five percent (5%) and (ii) the total cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements. In the event Tenant requests any changes, change orders or modifications to the Final Space Plan and/or Working Drawings (if any) and/or the Approved Working Drawings (if any) (which Landlord approves pursuant to Section 2 above) which increase the cost to construct the Tenant Improvements above the cost of the tenant improvements as described in the Final Space Plan, Tenant shall pay such increased cost to Landlord immediately upon Landlord’s request therefor, and, in any event, prior to the date Landlord causes the Contractor to commence construction of the changes, change orders or modifications. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay for any of Tenant’s furniture, computer systems, telephone systems, equipment

Exhibit “C”

or other personal property which may be depicted on the Construction Drawings; such items shall be paid for by Tenant.

SECTION 4

SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

4.1 Substantial Completion. For purposes of the Second Amendment, including for purposes of determining the Reduction Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 2 of the Second Amendment), “Substantial Completion” of the Reduced Premises shall occur upon the completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Reduced Premises pursuant to the Final Space Plan and the Approved Working Drawings (if any), with the exception of any punch list items that do not materially and adversely affect Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Reduced Premises and any tenant fixtures, work-stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant or under the supervision of Contractor.

4.2 Delay of the Substantial Completion of the Reduced Premises. If there shall be a delay or there are delays in the Substantial Completion of the Reduced Premises as a direct, indirect, partial, or total result of any of the following (collectively, “Tenant Delays”):

4.2.1 Tenant’s failure to timely approve the Working Drawings (if any) or any other matter requiring Tenant’s approval;

4.2.2 a breach by Tenant of the terms of this Work Letter Agreement or the Lease;

4.2.3 Tenant’s request for changes in any of the Construction Drawings;

4.2.4 Tenant’s requirement for materials, components, finishes or improvements which are not available in a commercially reasonable time given the May 1, 2011 anticipated date of Substantial Completion of the Reduced Premises, or which are different from, or not included in, Landlord’s standard tenant improvement items for the Building;

4.2.5 changes to the Base, Shell and Core, structural components or structural components or systems of the Building required by the Final Space Plan and the Approved Working Drawings (if any);

4.2.6 any changes in the Construction Drawings and/or the Tenant Improvements required by applicable laws if such changes are directly attributable to Tenant’s use of the Reduced Premises or Tenant’s specialized tenant improvement(s) (as determined by Landlord); or

4.2.7 any other acts or omissions of Tenant, or its agents, or employees;

then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease and regardless of the actual date of Substantial Completion, the Reduction Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 2 of the Second Amendment) shall be deemed to be the date the Reduction Commencement Date would have occurred if no Tenant Delays, as set forth above, had occurred.
