Intentionally Omitted

By taking possession of the Premises, Tenant is deemed to have accepted the Premises and agreed that the Premises is in good order and satisfactory condition, with no representation or warranty by Landlord as to the condition of the Premises or the Building or suitability thereof for Tenant’s use.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord shall not be obligated to tender possession of any portion of the Premises or other space leased by Tenant from time to time hereunder that, on the date possession is to be delivered, is occupied by a tenant or other occupant or that is subject to the rights of any other tenant or occupant, nor shall Landlord have any other obligations to Tenant under this Lease with respect to such space until the date Landlord: (1) recaptures such space from such existing tenant or occupant; and (2) regains the legal right to possession thereof. This Lease shall not be affected by any such failure to deliver possession and Tenant shall have no claim for damages against Landlord as a result thereof, all of which are hereby waived and released by Tenant. If Landlord is prevented from delivering possession of the Premises to Tenant due to the holding over in possession of the Premises by a tenant or other occupant thereof, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to regain possession of the Premises in order to deliver the same to Tenant. If the Lease Term is to be determined pursuant to Section l.F.(1) hereof, the Commencement Date shall be postponed until the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, in which event the Termination Date shall, at the option of Landlord, correspondingly be postponed on a per diem basis. If the Lease Term is to be determined pursuant to Section l.F.(2), the Commencement Date and Termination Date shall be determined as provided in Section 3.A. above.

If Tenant takes possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, such possession shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Lease and Tenant shall pay Base Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord for each day of occupancy prior to the Commencement Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant, with Landlord’s prior approval, takes possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the sole purpose of performing any Landlord-approved improvements therein or installing furniture, equipment or other personal property of Tenant, such possession shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Lease, except that Tenant shall not be required to pay Rent with respect to the period of time prior to the Commencement Date during which Tenant performs

such work. Tenant shall, however, be liable for the cost of any services (e.g. electricity, HVAC, freight elevators) that are provided to Tenant or the Premises during the period of Tenant’s possession prior to the Commencement Date. Nothing herein shall be construed as granting Tenant the right to take possession of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, whether for construction, fixturing or any other purpose, without the prior consent of Landlord.

4. Use.

Tenant will conduct its business and control its agents, servants, employees, customers, licensees, and invitees in such a manner as not to interfere with, annoy or disturb other tenants or Landlord in the management of the Building and the Property. Tenant will maintain the Premises in a clean and healthful condition, and comply with all laws, ordinances, orders, rules and regulations of any governmental entity with reference to the use, condition, configuration or occupancy of the Premises. Tenant, within ten (10) days after the receipt thereof, shall provide Landlord with copies of any notices it receives with respect to a violation or alleged violation of any such laws, ordinances, orders, rules and regulations. Tenant, at its expense, will comply with the rules and regulations of the Building attached hereto as Exhibit B and such other rules and regulations adopted and altered by Landlord from time-to-time and will cause all of its agents, employees, invitees and visitors to do so.

Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee or assignee or successor thereof for the return of the Security Deposit. Landlord and its successors and assigns shall not be bound by any actual or attempted assignment or encumbrance of the Security Deposit by Tenant. Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its other accounts.

Tenant shall permit Landlord or its agents or representatives to enter into and upon any part of the Premises to inspect the same, or to show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees, tenants (during the last (12) twelve months of the Lease Term or earlier in connection with a potential relocation) or insurers, or to clean or make repairs, alterations, or additions thereto, including any work that Landlord deems necessary for the safety, protection or preservation of the Building or any occupants thereof, or to facilitate repairs, alterations or additions to the Building or any other tenant’s premises. Except for any entry by Landlord in an emergency situation or to provide normal cleaning and janitorial service, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable prior notice of any entry into the Premises, which notice may be given verbally. Landlord shall have the right to temporarily close the Premises or the Building to perform repairs, alterations or additions in the Premises or the Building, provided that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to perform all such work on weekends and after Normal Business Hours, Entry by Landlord hereunder shall not constitute a constructive eviction or entitle Tenant to any abatement or reduction of Rent by reason thereof.

13. Assignment and Subletting.

Except in connection with a Permitted Transfer (defined in Section 13.E. below), Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber any interest in this Lease or allow any third party to use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a “Transfer”) without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Without limitation, it is agreed that Landlord’s consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld if: (1) the proposed transferee’s financial condition does not meet the criteria Landlord uses to select Building tenants having similar leasehold obligations; (2) the proposed transferee’s business is not suitable for the Building considering the business of the other tenants and the Building’s prestige, or would result in a violation of another tenant’s rights; (3) the proposed transferee is a governmental agency or occupant of the Building; (4) Tenant is in default

beyond any applicable notice and cure period; (5) hazardous substances used by the proposed transferee; or (6) any portion of the Building or the Premises would likely become subject to additional or different laws as a consequence of the proposed Transfer. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Section 13, shall, exercisable in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, be voidable. Consent by Landlord to one or more Transfer(s) shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord’s rights to approve any subsequent Transfer(s). In no event shall any Transfer or Permitted Transfer release or relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Lease or any liability hereunder.

If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to a Transfer, Tenant shall submit to Landlord financial statements for the proposed transferee, a complete copy of the proposed assignment, sublease and other information as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the required information and documentation either: (1) consent or reasonably refuse consent to the Transfer in writing; (2) in the event of a proposed assignment of this Lease or a proposed sublease of the entire Premises for the entire remaining term of this Lease, terminate this Lease effective the first to occur of ninety (90) days following written notice of such termination or the date that the proposed Transfer would have come into effect, Tenant shall pay Landlord a review fee of $ 1,000.00 for Landlord’s review of any Permitted Transfer or requested Transfer. In addition, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its actual reasonable costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Landlord in connection with Landlord’s review of such requested Transfer or Permitted Transfer.

Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all cash and other consideration which Tenant receives as a result of a Transfer that is in excess of the rent payable to Landlord hereunder for the portion of the Premises and Term covered by the Transfer within ten (10) days following receipt thereof by Tenant. If Tenant is in Monetary Default (defined in Section 22. below), Landlord may require that all sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall receive a credit against rent in the amount of any payments received (less Landlord’s share of any excess).

Except as provided below with respect to a Permitted Transfer, if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or similar entity, and the entity which owns or controls a majority of the voting shares/rights at the time changes for any reason (including but not limited to a merger, consolidation or reorganization), such change of ownership or control shall constitute a Transfer. The foregoing shall not apply so long as Tenant is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a nationally recognized security exchange, or if at least eighty percent (80%) of its voting stock is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed.

Tenant may assign its entire interest under this Lease or sublet the Premises to any entity controlling or controlled by or under common control with Tenant or to any

successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization (hereinafter, collectively, referred to as “Permitted Transfer”) without the consent of Landlord, provided: (1) Tenant is not in default under this Lease; (2) if such proposed transferee is a successor to Tenant by purchase, said proposed transferee shall acquire all or substantially all of the stock or assets of Tenant’s business or, if such proposed transferee shall acquire all or substantially all of the stock or assets of Tenant’s business or, if such proposed transferee is a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation or reorganization, the continuing or surviving corporation shall own all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; (3) such proposed transferee shall have a net worth which is at least equal to the greater of Tenant’s net worth at the date of this Lease or Tenant’s net worth as of the day prior to the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization as evidenced to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction; (4) such proposed transferee operates the business in the Premises for the Permitted Use and no other purpose; and (5) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization.

Tenant agrees that in the event Landlord withholds its consent to any Transfer contrary to the provisions of this Section 13, Tenant’s sole remedy shall be to seek an injunction in equity or compel performance by Landlord to give its consent and Tenant expressly waives any right to damages in the event of such withholding by Landlord of its consent.

Any transferee shall be required to comply with all restrictions and obligations set forth in this Lease and the Ground Lease, including but not limited to the Permitted Uses.

14. Mechanic’s Liens. Tenant will not permit any mechanic’s liens or other liens to be placed upon the Premises, the Building, or the Property and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any person for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials to the Premises, the Building, or the Property or any part thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power, or authority to contract for or permit the rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to any mechanic’s or other liens against the Premises, the Building, or the Property. In the event any such lien is attached to the Premises, the Building, or the Property, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same. Any amount paid by Landlord for any of the aforesaid purposes including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord promptly on demand as Additional Rent. Tenant shall within ten (10) days of receiving such notice of lien or claim (a) have such lien or claim released or (b) deliver to Landlord a bond in form, content, amount and issued by surety, satisfactory to Landlord, indemnifying, protecting, defending and holding harmless the Indemnities against all costs and liabilities resulting from such lien or claim and the foreclosure or attempted foreclosure thereof. Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of the foregoing sentence shall be deemed an Event of Default under Section 22. hereof entitling Landlord to exercise all of its remedies therefor without the requirement of any additional notice or cure period.

15. Insurance.

Landlord shall maintain such insurance on the Building and the Premises (other than on Tenant’s Property or on any additional improvements constructed in the Premises by Tenant), and such liability insurance in such amounts as Landlord elects. The cost of such insurance shall be included as a part of the Triple Net Costs, and payments for losses thereunder shall be made solely to Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord as their interests shall appear.

Tenant shall maintain at its expense, (1) in an amount equal to full replacement cost, special form (formerly known as all risk) property insurance on all of its personal property, including removable trade fixtures and leasehold and tenant improvements, and Tenant’s Property located in the Premises and in such additional amounts as are required to meet Tenant’s obligations pursuant to Section 18 hereof and with deductibles in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and (ii) a policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance (including endorsement or separate policy for owned or non-owned automobile liability) with respect to its activities in the Building and on the Property, with the premiums thereon fully paid on or before the due date, in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence per person and $2,000,000 aggregate coverage for bodily injury, property damage, personal injury or combination thereof (the term “personal injury” as used herein means, without limitation, false arrest, detention or imprisonment, malicious prosecution, wrongful entry, liable and slander), provided that if only single limit coverage is available it shall be for at least $1,000,000 per occurrence with an umbrella policy of at least $1,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence. Tenant’s insurance policies shall name Landlord and Building Manager as additional insureds and shall include coverage for the contractual liability of Tenant to indemnify Landlord and Building Manager pursuant to Section 16 of this Lease and shall have deductibles in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Prior to Tenant’s taking possession of the Premises, Tenant shall furnish evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the maintenance and timely renewal of such insurance, and Tenant shall obtain and deliver to Landlord a written obligation on the part of each insurer to notify Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the modification, cancellation or expiration of such insurance policies. In the event Tenant shall not have delivered to Landlord a policy or certificate evidencing such insurance at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each expiring policy, Landlord may obtain such insurance as Landlord may reasonably require to protect Landlord’s interest (which obtaining of insurance shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Tenant’s default hereunder). The cost to Landlord of obtaining such policies, plus an administrative fee in the amount of fifteen percent (15%) of the cost of such policies shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent upon demand. Other than at times of renewal of Tenant’s coverage, Landlord generally will only need certificates of insurance on an annual basis, transfer of the Property by Landlord, or refinancing of the Property.

The insurance requirements set forth in this Section 15 are independent of the waiver, indemnification, and other obligations under this Lease and will not be construed or interpreted in any way to restrict, limit or modify the waiver. indemnification and other obligations or to in any way limit any party’s liability under this Lease. In addition to the requirements set forth in Sections 15 and 16, the insurance required of Tenant under this Lease must be issued by an insurance company with a rating of no less than A-VIII in the current Best’s Insurance Guide, or A- in the current Standard & Poor Insurance Solvency Review, or in that is otherwise acceptable to Landlord, and admitted to engage in the business of insurance in the state in which the Building is located; be primary insurance for all claims under it and provide that any insurance carried by Landlord and Landlord’s lenders is strictly excess, secondary and non-contributing with any insurance carried by Tenant; and provide that insurance may not be cancelled, nonrenewed or the subject of material change in coverage of available limits of coverage, except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and Landlord’s lenders. Tenant will deliver either a duplicate original or a legally enforceable certificate of insurance on all policies procured by Tenant in compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, together with evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the payment of the premiums therefor, to Landlord on or before the date Tenant first occupies any portion of the Premises, at least thirty (30) days before the expiration date of any policy and upon the renewal of any policy. Landlord must give its prior written approval to all deductibles and self-insured retentions under Tenant’s policies. Tenant may comply with its insurance coverage requirements through a blanket policy, provided Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, procures a “per location” endorsement, or equivalent reasonably acceptable to Landlord, so that the general aggregate and other limits apply separately and specifically to the Premises.

If Tenant’s business operations, conduct or use of the Premises or any other part of the Property causes an increase in the premium for any insurance policy carried by Landlord, Tenant will, within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Landlord, reimburse Landlord for the entire increase.

Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable (by way of subrogation or otherwise) to the other party (or to any insurance company insuring the other party) for any personal injury or loss or damage to any of the property of Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, with respect to their respective property, the Building, the Property or the Premises or any addition or improvements thereto, or any contents therein, to the extent covered by insurance carried or required to be carried by a party hereto even though such loss might have been occasioned by the negligence or willful acts or omissions of the Landlord or Tenant or their respective employees, agents, contractors or invitees. Since this mutual waiver will preclude the assignment of any such claim by subrogation (or otherwise) to an insurance company (or any other person), Landlord and Tenant each agree to give each insurance company which has issued, or on the future may issue, policies of insurance, with respect to the items covered by this waiver, written notice of the terms of this mutual waiver, and to have such insurance policies properly

endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation of any of the coverage provided by such insurance policies by reason of such mutual waiver. For the purpose of the foregoing waiver, the amount of any deductible applicable to any loss or damage shall be deemed covered by, and recoverable by the insured under the insurance policy to which such deductible relates. In the event that Tenant is permitted to and self-insures any risk for which insurance is required to be carried under this Lease, or if Tenant fails to carry any insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, then all loss or damage to Tenant, its leasehold interest, its business, its property, the Premises or any additions or improvements thereto or contents thereof shall be deemed covered by and recoverable by Tenant under valid and collectible policies of insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall not be liable to the Tenant or any insurance company (by way of subrogation or otherwise) insuring the Tenant for any loss or damage to any property, or bodily injury or personal injury or any resulting loss of income or losses from worker’s compensation laws and benefits, even though such loss or damage might have been occasioned by the negligence of Landlord, its agents or employees, or Building Manager, if any such loss or damage was required to be covered by insurance pursuant to this Lease.

16. Indemnity. To the extent not expressly prohibited by law, neither Landlord nor Building Manager nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers, or agents shall be liable to Tenant, or to Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, customers, licensees. or invitees for any injury to person or damage to property caused by any act, omission, or neglect of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, Customers, invitees, licensees or by any other person entering the Building or upon the Property under the invitation of Tenant or arising out of the use of the Property, Building or Premises by Tenant and the conduct of its business or out of a default by Tenant in the performance of its obligations hereunder. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds Landlord and Building Manager and their respective officers, directors, employees, members, managers and agents (“Indemnitees”), harmless from all liability and claims for any property damage, or bodily injury or death of, or personal injury to, a person in or on the Premises, or at any other place, including the Property or the Building and this indemnity shall be enforceable to the full extent whether or not such liability and claims are the result of the sole, joint or concurrent acts, negligent or intentional, or otherwise, of Tenant, or its employees, agents, servants, customers, invitees or licensees. Landlord hereby indemnifies and holds Tenant harmless from all liability and claims for any property damage, or bodily injury or death of, or personal injury to, a person in or on the Premises, or at any other place, including the Property or the Building caused by the negligence or willful conduct of Landlord. Notwithstanding the terms of this Lease to the contrary, the terms of this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

17. Damages from Certain Causes. To the extent not expressly prohibited by law, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or Tenant’s employees, contractors, agents, invitees or customers, for any injury to person or damage to property sustained by Tenant or any such party or any other person claiming through Tenant resulting from any accident or occurrence in the Premises or any other portion of the Building caused by the Premises or any other portion of the Building becoming out of repair or by defect in or failure of equipment, pipes, or wiring, or by broken glass, or by the backing up of drains, or by gas, water, steam, electricity, or oil leaking,

escaping or flowing into the Premises (except where due to Landlord’s negligent failure to make repairs required to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Lease, after the expiration of a reasonable time after written notice to Landlord of the need for such repairs), nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by or through the acts or omissions of other tenants of the Building or of any other persons whomsoever, including. but not limited to riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition, order of any governmental body or authority, acts of God, fire or theft.

18. Casualty Damage. If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. In case the Building shall be so damaged that substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, be required and Landlord’s mortgagee requires that the insurance proceeds payable as a result of a casualty be applied to the payment of the mortgage debt or in the event of any material uninsured loss to the Building, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within ninety (90) days after the date of such casualty. If Landlord does not thus elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Building, and the improvements located within the Premises, if any, for which Landlord had financial responsibility pursuant to the Work Letter Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D (except that Landlord shall not be responsible for delays not within the control of Landlord) to substantially the same condition in which it was immediately prior to the happening of the casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s obligation to restore the Building, and the improvements located within the Premises, if any, for which Landlord had financial responsibility pursuant to the Work Letter Agreement, shall not require Landlord to expend for such repair and restoration work more than the insurance proceeds actually received by the Landlord as a result of the casualty and Landlord’s obligation to restore shall be further limited so that Landlord shall not be required to expend for the repair and restoration of the improvements located within the Premises, if any, for which Landlord had financial responsibility pursuant to the Work Letter Agreement, more than the dollar amount of the Allowance, if any, described in the Work Letter Agreement. When the repairs described in the preceding two sentences have been completed by Landlord, Tenant shall complete the restoration of all improvements, including furniture, fixtures and equipment, which are necessary to permit Tenant’s reoccupancy of the Premises. Except as set forth above, all cost and expense of reconstructing the Premises shall be borne by Tenant, and Tenant shall present Landlord with evidence satisfactory to Landlord of Tenant’s ability to pay such costs prior to Landlord’s commencement of repair and restoration of the Premises. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof, except that, subject to the provisions of the next sentence, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy. If the Premises or any other portion of the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty resulting from the fault or negligence of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, or invitees, the rent hereunder shall not be diminished during the repair of such damage and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of the repair and restoration of the Property caused thereby to the extent such cost and expense is not covered by insurance proceeds.

19. Condemnation. If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises or if the Building or any portion thereof which would leave the remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an

industrial building comparable to its use on the Commencement Date, or if the land on which the Building is located or any material portion thereof, shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use under governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, then Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease and the rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective when the physical taking of said Premises or said portion of the Building or land shall occur. In the event this Lease is not terminated, the rent for any portion of the Premises so taken or condemned shall be abated during the unexpired term of this Lease effective when the physical taking of said portion of the Premises shall occur. All compensation awarded for any such taking or condemnation, or sale proceeds in lieu thereof, shall be the property of Landlord, and Tenant shall have no claim thereto, the same being hereby expressly waived by Tenant, except for any portions of such award or proceeds which are specifically allocated by the condemning or purchasing party for the taking of or damage to trade fixtures of Tenant, which Tenant specifically reserves to itself.

20. Hazardous Substances.

Tenant hereby represents and covenants to Landlord the following: No toxic or hazardous substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants (including, without limitation, asbestos, urea formaldehyde, the group of organic compounds known as polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum products including gasoline, fuel oil, crude oil and various constituents of such products, radon, and any hazardous substance as defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, 42 U.S.C. 9601-9657, as amended (“CERCLA”) (collectively, “Environmental Pollutants”) other than customary office supplies and cleaning supplies stored and handled within the Premises in accordance with all applicable laws, will be generated, treated, stored, released or disposed of, or otherwise placed, deposited in or located on the Property, and no activity shall be taken on the Property by Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or contractors, that would cause or contribute to (i) the Property or any part thereof to become a generation, treatment, storage or disposal facility within the meaning of or otherwise bring the Property within the ambit of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (“RCRA”), 42 U.S.C. 5901 et, seq., or any similar state law or local ordinance, (ii) a release or threatened release of toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, pollutants or contaminants, from the Property or any part thereof within the meaning of, or otherwise result in liability in connection with the Property within the ambit of CERCLA. or any similar state law or local ordinance, or (iii) the discharge of pollutants or effluents into any water source or system, the dredging or filling of any waters, or the discharge into the air of any emissions, that would require a permit under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et. seq., or the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401 et. seq., or any similar state law or local ordinance.

Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord in writing of any release or threatened release of toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, pollutants or contaminants of which Tenant has knowledge whether or not the release is in quantities that would require under law the reporting of such release to a governmental or regulatory agency.

Any excess or residue shall operate only as an offsetting credit against the amount of Rent due and owing as the same thereafter becomes due and payable hereunder. and the use of such offsetting credit to reduce the amount of Rent due Landlord, if any, shall not be deemed to give Tenant any right, title or interest in or to such excess or residue and any such excess or residue shall belong to Landlord solely, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to a credit on its indebtedness to Landlord in excess of the aggregate sum (including Base Rent and Additional Rent) which would have been paid by Tenant for the period for which the credit to Tenant is being determined, had no Event of Default occurred. No such reentry or repossession, repairs, alterations and additions, or reletting shall be construed as an eviction or ouster of Tenant or as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant, or shall operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, and Landlord, at any time and from time to time, may ▇▇▇ and recover judgment for any deficiencies remaining after the application of the proceeds of any such reletting.

If this Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Section 23.A.(2), Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all Rent accrued and unpaid for the period up to and including such termination date, as well as all other additional sums payable by Tenant, or for which Tenant is liable or for which Tenant has agreed to indemnify Landlord under any of the provisions of this Lease, which may be then owing and unpaid, and all costs and expenses, including without limitation court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of its rights and remedies hereunder, and, in addition, Landlord shall be entitled to recover as damages for loss of the bargain and not as a penalty (i) the unamortized portion of any concessions offered by Landlord to Tenant in connection with this Lease, including without limitation Landlord’s contribution to the cost of tenant improvements and alterations, if any, installed by either Landlord or Tenant pursuant to this Lease or any work letter in connection with this Lease, (ii) the aggregate sum which at the time of such termination represents the excess, if any, of the present value of the aggregate rents which would have been payable after the termination date had this Lease not been terminated, including, without limitation, Base Rent at the annual rate or respective annual rates for the remainder of the Term provided for in this Lease and the amount projected by Landlord to represent Additional Rent for the remainder of the Term over the then present value of the then aggregate fair rent value of the Premises for the balance of the Term, such present worth to be computed in each case on the basis of a ten percent (10%) per annum discount from the respective dates upon which such Rents would have been payable hereunder had this Lease not been terminated, and (iii) any damages in addition thereto, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, which Landlord sustains as a result of the breach of any of the covenants of this Lease other than for the payment of Rent.

▇▇

▇.

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any damages resulting from an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease. Landlord’s obligation to mitigate damages after an Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease shall be satisfied in full if Landlord undertakes to lease the Premises to another tenant (a “Substitute Tenant”) in accordance with the following criteria:

(1)

Landlord shall have no obligations to solicit or entertain negotiations with any other prospective tenants for the Premises until Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises including, without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to relet the Premises free of any claim of Tenant:

(2)

Landlord shall not be obligated to lease or show the Premises, on a priority basis, offer the Premises to a prospective tenant when other premises in the Building suitable for that prospective tenant’s use are (or soon will be) available;

(3)

Landlord shall not be obligated to lease the Premises to a Substitute Tenant for a Rent less than the current fair market Rent then prevailing for similar uses in comparable buildings in the same market area as the Building, nor shall Landlord be obligated to enter into a new lease under other terms and conditions that are unacceptable to Landlord under Landlord’s then current leasing policies for comparable space in the Building;

(4)

Landlord shall not be obligated to enter into a lease with a Substitute Tenant whose use would:

(i)

violate any restriction, covenant, or requirement contained in the lease of another tenant of the Building;

(ii)

adversely affect the reputation of the Building; or

(iii)

be incompatible with the operation of the Building as an industrial building;

(5)

Landlord shall not be obligated to enter into a lease with any proposed Substitute Tenant which does not have, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, sufficient financial resources to operate the Premises in a first class manner; and

(6)

Landlord shall not be required to expend any amount of money to alter, remodel, or otherwise make the Premises suitable for use by a proposed Substitute Tenant unless:

(i)

Tenant pays any such sum to Landlord in advance of Landlord’s execution of a lease with such tenant (which payment shall not be in lieu of any damages or other sums to which Landlord may be entitled as a result of Tenant’s default under this Lease); or

(ii)

Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, determines that any such expenditure is financially justified in connection with entering into any such substitute lease.

All property of Tenant removed from the Premises by Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease or applicable law may be handled, removed or stored by Landlord at the cost and expense of Tenant, and Landlord shall not be responsible in any event for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay Landlord for all expenses incurred by Landlord with respect to such removal and storage so long as the same is in Landlord’s possession or under Landlord’s control. All such property not removed from the Premises or retaken from storage by Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term or the termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, however terminated, at Landlord’s option, shall be conclusively deemed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord as by ▇▇▇▇ of sale without further payment or credit by Landlord to Tenant.

Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a first lien upon the interest of Tenant under this Lease to secure the payment of moneys due under this Lease, which lien may be enforced in equity, and Landlord shall be entitled as a matter of right to have a receiver appointed to take possession of the Premises and relet the same under order of court.

If Tenant is adjudged bankrupt, or a trustee in bankruptcy is appointed for Tenant, Landlord and Tenant, to the extent permitted by law, agree to request that the trustee in bankruptcy determine within sixty (60) days thereafter whether to assume or to reject this Lease.

The receipt by Landlord of less than the full rent due shall not be construed to be other than a payment on account of rent then due, nor shall any statement on Tenant’s check or any letter accompanying Tenant’s check be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of the rent due or to pursue any other remedies provided in this lease. The acceptance by Landlord of rent hereunder shall not be construed to be a waiver of any breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease. No act or omission by Landlord or its employees or agents during the term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such a surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Landlord.

In the event of any litigation between Tenant and Landlord to enforce any provision of this Lease or any right of either party hereto, the unsuccessful party

to such litigation shall pay to the successful party all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred therein. Furthermore, if Landlord, without fault, is made a party to any litigation instituted by or against Tenant, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against, and protect, defend, and save it harmless from, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by it in connection therewith. If Tenant, without fault, is made party to any litigation instituted by or against Landlord, Landlord shall indemnify Tenant against, and protect, defend, and save it harmless from, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by it in connection therewith.

24. No Waiver.

No failure of Landlord to declare any default immediately upon its occurrence, or delay in taking any action in connection with an event of default. shall constitute a waiver of such default, nor shall it constitute an estoppel against Landlord, but Landlord shall have the right to declare the default at any time and take such action as is lawful or authorized under this Lease. Failure by Landlord to enforce its rights with respect to any one default shall not constitute a waiver of its rights with respect to any subsequent default.

25. Peaceful Enjoyment.

Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold, and enjoy the Premises, subject to the other terms hereof, provided that Tenant pays the Rent and other sums herein recited to be paid by Tenant and timely performs all of Tenant’s covenants and agreements herein contained. This covenant and any and all other covenants of Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only with respect to breaches occurring during its or their respective periods of ownership of the Landlord’s interest hereunder.

26. Substitution. Intentionally Omitted.

27. Holding Over.

In the event of holding over by Tenant after expiration or other termination of this Lease or in the event Tenant continues to occupy the Premises after the termination of Tenant’s right of possession pursuant to Section 23.A(3) hereof, occupancy of the Premises subsequent to such termination or expiration shall be that of a tenancy at sufferance and in no event for month-to-month or year-to-year. Tenant shall, throughout the entire holdover period, be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease and shall pay for its use and occupancy an amount (on a per month basis without reduction for any partial months during any such holdover) equal to one hunched twenty-five percent (125%) of (a) the greater of then current market rate, or (b) the Base Rent and Additional Rent which would have been applicable had the Lease Term continued through the period of such holding over by Tenant. No holding over by Tenant or payments of money by Tenant to Landlord after the expiration of the Lease Term shall be construed to extend the Lease Term or prevent Landlord from recovery of immediate possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise unless Landlord has sent written notice to Tenant that Landlord has elected to extend the Lease Term. In addition to the obligation to pay the amounts set forth above during any such holdover period, Tenant shall also be liable to Landlord for all

damages, including, without limitation, any consequential damages, which Landlord may suffer by reason of any holding over by Tenant and Tenant shall also indemnify Landlord against any and all claims made by any other tenant or prospective tenant against Landlord for delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Premises to such other tenant or prospective tenant.

28. Subordination to Mortgage/Estoppel Certificate.

Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust or other lien presently existing or hereafter arising upon the Premises, or upon the Building and/or the Property and to any renewals, modifications, refinancings and extensions thereof but Tenant agrees that any such mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate such mortgage, deed of trust or other lien to this Lease on such terms and subject to such conditions as such mortgagee may deem appropriate in its discretion. The provisions of the foregoing sentence shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. However, Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate this Lease to any mortgage, deed of trust or other lien now existing or hereafter placed upon the Premises, or the Building and/or the Property and Tenant agrees within ten (10) days after demand to execute such further instruments subordinating this Lease or attorning to the holder of any such liens as Landlord may request. The terms of this Lease are subject to approval by the Landlord’s existing lender(s) and any lender(s) who, at the time of the execution of this Lease, have committed or are considering committing to Landlord to make a loan secured by all or any portion of the Property, and such approval is a condition precedent to Landlord’s obligations hereunder. In the event that Tenant should fail to execute any subordination or other agreement required by this Section promptly as requested, Tenant hereby irrevocably constitutes Landlord as its attorney-in-fact to execute such instrument in Tenant’s name, place and stead, it being agreed that such power is one coupled with an interest in Landlord and is accordingly irrevocable. Tenant agrees that it will from time-to-time upon request by Landlord execute and deliver to such persons as Landlord shall request a statement in recordable form certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as so modified), stating the dates to which rent and other charges payable under this Lease have been paid, stating that Landlord is not in default hereunder (or if Tenant alleges a default stating the nature of such alleged default) and further stating such other matters as Landlord shall reasonably require. Tenant agrees periodically to furnish within ten (10) days after so requested by Landlord, ground lessor or the holder of any deed of trust, mortgage or security agreement covering the Building, the Property, or any interest of Landlord therein, a certificate signed by Tenant certifying (a) that this Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified (or if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), (b) as to the Commencement Date and the date through which Base Rent and Tenant’s Additional Rent have been paid, (c) that Tenant has accepted possession of the Premises and that any improvements required by the terms of this Lease to be made by Landlord have been completed to the satisfaction of Tenant, (d) that except as stated in the certificate no rent has been paid more than thirty (30) days in advance of its due date, (e) that the address for notices to be sent to Tenant is as set forth in this Lease (or has been changed by notice duly given and is as set forth in the certificate), (f) that except as stated in the certificate, Tenant, as of the date of such certificate, has no charge, lien, or claim of offset against rent due or to become due, (g) that except as stated in the certificate, Landlord is not then in default under this Lease, (h) as to the amount of the Approximate Rentable Area of the Premises then occupied by Tenant, (i)

that there are no renewal or extension options, purchase options, rights of first refusal or the like in favor of Tenant except as set forth in this Lease, 0) the amount and nature of accounts payable to Landlord under terms of this Lease, and (k) as to such other matters as may be requested by Landlord or ground lessor or the holder of any such deed of trust, mortgage or security agreement. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any ground lessor, prospective purchaser, secured party, mortgagee or any beneficiary under any mortgage, deed of trust on the Building or the Property or any part thereof or interest of Landlord therein.

29. Notice.

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Lease or by law shall be deemed to have been given if it is written and delivered in person or mailed by Express or Certified mail, postage prepaid, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service to the party who is to receive such notice at the address specified in Section 1.Y. of this Lease. When so mailed, the notice shall be deemed to be effective upon receipt or refusal to accept delivery. The address specified in Section 1.Y, of this Lease may be changed from time to time by giving written notice thereof to the other party.

30. Intentionally Omitted.

31. Surrender of Premises.

Upon the termination, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession without termination of the Lease, Tenant will at once surrender possession and vacate the Premises, together with all Leasehold improvements (except those Leasehold Improvements Tenant is required to remove pursuant to Section 8 hereof), to Landlord in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted; conditions existing because of Tenant’s failure to perform maintenance, repairs or replacements as required of Tenant under this Lease shall not be deemed “reasonable wear and tear.” Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys to the Premises and make known to Landlord the explanation of all combination locks which Tenant is permitted to leave on the Premises. Subject to the Landlord’s rights under Section 23 hereof, if Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant’s Property within one (1) day after the termination of this Lease, or Tenant’s right to possession hereunder, Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expenses, shall be entitled to remove and/or store such Tenant’s Property and Landlord shall be in no event be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping thereof. Tenant shall pay Landlord, upon demand, any and all reasonable expenses caused by such removal and all storage charges against such property so long as the same shall be in possession of Landlord or under the control of Landlord. In addition, if Tenant fails to remove any Tenant’s Property from the Premises or storage, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord, Landlord, at its option, may deem all or any part of such Tenant’s Property to have been abandoned by Tenant and title thereof shall immediately pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a ▇▇▇▇ of sale.

32. Rights Reserved to Landlord.

Landlord reserves the following rights, exercisable without notice, except as provided herein, and without liability to Tenant for damage or injury to property, person or business and

33. Miscellaneous,

If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: If possible, remove liquid nitrogen and any other containers of dangerous substances from fire area or cool with water. Do not direct water spray at a container vent. Self contained breathing apparatus may be required for rescue workers. Evacuate the Building and area as provided in the evacuation plan.

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Liquid nitrogen when spilled is expected to vaporize rapidly and may form an oxygen deficient vapor cloud. Tenant must take all precautions to protect other users of the Building and area from liquid nitrogen and other dangerous substances in the event of a fire. Pressure in storage containers of dangerous substances may build up due to heat and may rupture if pressure relief devices fail to function.

Because contact with cold liquid may cause frostbite, dangerous substances may cause injury, and visibility may be obscured in its vapor cloud, Tenant must evacuate all people from affected area. Tenant should increase ventilation to release area and monitor oxygen levels. Appropriate protective equipment should be used for all persons in the area and Tenant should call the appropriate emergency personnel.

STORAGE: No liquid nitrogen or other dangerous substances may be stored in a confined space must be store in safe containers and areas. All storage containers must be marked with clear instructions as to contents.

HANDLING: All dangerous substances must be handled with care and in accordance with industry customs, including at least two (2) people being used when moving containers of dangerous substances. All exposed pipes or vessels which contain liquid nitrogen must be marked and should be insulated unless expressly consented to by Landlord in writing, to prevent injuries from the cold metal caused when flesh sticks to the metal and is torn when one attempts to withdraw from such metal. Some metals, such as carbon steel, may become brittle and fracture at low temperatures.

A suitable hand truck or other safe device must be used for any movement of containers of liquid nitrogen or other dangerous substances. All containers shall be handled and stored in an upright position with all applicable precautions, unless customary safety standards require a different storage position.

Use of piping and equipment must be adequately designed to withstand pressures to be encountered form dangerous substances. Protective apparatus should be used in any line or piping to prevent reverse flow and such lines or piping shall be equipped with pressure relief devices. Only transfer lines designed for cryogenic liquids shall be used for liquid nitrogen. Unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord or required by applicable law, all vents shall be piped to the exterior of the Building.

EMERGENCY SUPPLIES: if any liquid nitrogen is used in the Premises, self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or positive pressure airline with mask and escape pack are to be available and clearly marked for use by Building personnel in all areas where dangerous substances are stored or used, along with loose fitting thermal insulated or leather gloves, full face shield and safety glasses.

LOW OXYGEN ALARM: if any liquid nitrogen is used in the Premises, Tenant shall provide the property manager with monthly reports showing the alarm has been tested and is functioning satisfactorily.

These provisions shall apply to Tenant only and may not be relied upon by other tenants or third parties.

C. Payments for Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses. Prior to January 1 of each calendar year during the Lease Term, or as soon thereafter as practical, Landlord shall make a good faith estimate of Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses for the applicable full or partial calendar year and Tenant’s Pro Rata Share thereof. On or before the first day of each month during such calendar year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, a monthly installment equal to one-twelfth of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of Landlord’s estimate of Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses. Landlord shall have the right from time to time during any such calendar year to revise the estimates of Triple Net Costs and/or Operating Expenses for such year and provide Tenant with a revised statement therefor (provided, however, Landlord agrees that Landlord shall not issue a revised statement more than twice in any calendar year), and thereafter the amount Tenant shall pay each month shall be based upon such revised estimate. If Landlord does not provide Tenant with an estimate of the Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses by January 1 of any calendar year, Tenant shall continue to pay a monthly installment based on the previous year’s estimate until such time as Landlord provides Tenant with an estimate of Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses for the current year. Upon receipt of such current year’s estimate, an adjustment shall be made for any month during the current year with respect to which Tenant paid monthly installments of Additional Base Rent based on the previous years estimate.

D. Reconciliation of Estimates for Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses. As soon as is practical following the end calendar year during the Lease Term, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant statements of Landlord’s actual Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses for the previous

calendar year. If for any calendar year the Additional Rent collected for the prior year, as a result of Landlord’s estimates of Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses, is in excess of Tenant’s actual Pro Rata Share of Triple Net Costs or Operating Expenses for such prior year, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment (or at Landlord’s option apply such amount against Additional Base Rent due or to become due hereunder).

EXHIBIT D-Work Letter

Plans and Contractor. Tenant, following the full and final execution and delivery of this Lease and payment of all prepaid Rent and security deposits required hereunder, shall have the right to perform alterations and improvements in the Premises (the “Initial Alterations”). The Initial Alterations may, at Tenant’s option, be divided into phases. The provisions of this Exhibit shall be repeated for each phase of the initial Alterations. Tenant shall be responsible for preparation of the final plans for the entire Initial Alterations and after completion shall deliver the final plans to Landlord, for Landlord’s approval. Any plans to install a liquid nitrogen tank shall provide for the tank to be screened from view of the public and partially buried and shall be subject to the approval of the ground lessor, the University of Utah. The final plans shall also provide for installation of a low oxygen detection alarm system in the Premises. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether it approves of the working drawings within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof. If Landlord disapproves of such working drawings, then Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall, within five (5) business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Landlord’s reasonable objections and resubmit the revised working drawings to Landlord for its review and approval. This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant that it disapproves of the initial working drawings within five (5) after the submission thereof, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the working drawings in question.

Notwithstanding the foregoing. Tenant and its contractors shall not have the right to perform any of the Initial Alterations or any phase of the Initial Alterations in the Premises unless and until: (1) Tenant has complied with all of the terms and conditions of Section 10 of this Lease, including, without limitation, approval by Landlord of the final plans for the Initial Alterations and of the contractors to be retained by Tenant to perform such Initial Alterations; (2) Tenant has provided Landlord with a lien waiver from the architect for payment of the cost to prepare the final plans; (3) Tenant has deposited the amount of the construction contract for the entire initial Alterations (or only the amount for a designated phase of the Initial Alterations if Tenant has given Landlord notice that phases will be used) in an escrow account with the Talon Group as escrow agent, which account shall be interest bearing if requested by Tenant; and (4) contractor has executed a standard written AIA contract providing for posting a performance bond of $1,000,000 (or if phases are used then 120% of the contract price for the phase) and a retainage of five percent (5%) of the cost to construct the Initial Alterations (or the designated phase). The escrow agent shall make payments to the contractor upon receipt of pay requests from Tenant and approved in writing by both Tenant and Landlord’s construction managers or the project architect.

Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Tenant’s plans (including, without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Premises and the placement of Tenant’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. Landlord’s approval of the contractor to perform the Initial Alterations (or any phase of the initial Alterations) shall not be unreasonably withheld. The parties agree that Landlord’s approval of the general contractor to perform the Initial Alterations shall not be considered to be unreasonably withheld if any such general contractor (i) does not

have trade references reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (ii) does not maintain insurance as required pursuant to the terms of this Lease, (iii) does not have the ability to be bonded for the work in an amount of no less than $1,000,000.00, (iv) does not provide current financial statements reasonably acceptable to Landlord, or (v) is not licensed as a contractor in the state/municipality in which the Premises is located. Tenant acknowledges the foregoing is not intended to be an exclusive list of the reasons why Landlord may reasonably withhold its consent to a general contractor.

Construction Allowance. Provided Tenant is not in default, Landlord agrees to contribute the sum of up to $10.00 per rentable square foot in the Premises as shown in the jointly approved final plans, which is currently estimated at One Hundred Seventy-Four Thousand, Five Hundred Forty Dollars ($174,540.00) (“Construction Allowance”) toward the cost of performing the Initial Alterations in preparation of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, plus one-half (1/2) the cost of each new demising wall being constructed in the Premises included in the Initial Alterations. For purposes of this Lease, a demising wall is a wall that separates the Premises from other tenants and the other areas of the Building. The Construction Allowance shall be payable to Tenant as a single payment following: (1) completion of the Initial Alterations (or the portion in the designated phase) including punchlist items as described below; (2) issuance of a final (not temporary) certificate of occupancy for the Premises (or the scope of work for the phase) by the applicable governmental agency(ies): (3) the certification of Tenant and its architect that the Initial Alterations (or for the work in the designated phase) have been installed in a good and workmanlike manner in accordance with the approved plans, and in accordance with applicable laws, codes and ordinances; (4) full and final contractor’s, subcontractor’s and material supplier’s waivers of liens which shall cover all Initial Alterations (or all work in the designated phase) and all other statements and forms required for compliance with the mechanics’ lien laws of the State of Utah; (5) general contractor and architect’s completion affidavits; (6)_plans and specifications for the initial Alterations, together with a certificate from an AIA architect that such plans and specifications comply in all material respects with all laws affecting the Building, Property and Premises; (7) Tenant furnishing Landlord with an accurate architectural “as-built” plan of the Initial Alterations as constructed, which plan shall be incorporated into this Exhibit D by this reference for all purposes, and (8) copies of all construction contracts for the Initial Alterations, together with copies of all change orders, if any; together with all such invoices, contracts, or other supporting data as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably require. The Construction Allowance shall be disbursed in the amount reflected on the receipted bills meeting the requirements above. Upon making payment of the Construction Allowance, Landlord and Tenant shall also jointly notify the escrow agent that all remaining funds in the escrow account may be returned to Tenant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse any portion of the Construction Allowance during the continuance of an uncured default under the Lease, and Landlord’s obligation to disburse shall only resume when and if such default is cured.

Change Orders. Tenant may initiate changes in the final plans. Each such change must receive the prior written approval of Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; however, if such requested change would adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) (1)the Building’s structure or the Building’s systems (including the Building’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), (2) the exterior appearance of the Building, or (3) the

appearance of the Building’s common areas or elevator lobby areas (if any), Landlord may withhold its consent in its reasonable discretion. Landlord may also request changes to Tenant for the final plans during the construction period for Tenant to approve, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, provided that such change orders shall not materially delay the occupancy date and shall not increase the cost of the initial Alterations. If Tenant disapproves a change requested by Landlord because of cost. Landlord shall have the option to require the change order to be made if Landlord provides funds for the change order.

Punchlist. When Tenant considers the initial Alterations to be substantially completed (or the portion in a designated phase), Tenant will notify Landlord and within three (3) business days thereafter, Landlord’s representative and Tenant’s representative shall conduct a walk-through of the Premises and identify any necessary touch-up work, repairs and minor completion items that are reasonably necessary for final completion of the Work. Neither Landlord’s representative nor Tenant’s representative shall unreasonably withhold his or her agreement on punchlist items. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to cause the contractor performing the Work to complete all punchlist items within ten (10) days after agreement thereon; however, Tenant shall not be obligated to engage overtime labor in order to complete such items. As used herein “Substantial Completion,” “Substantially Completed,” and any derivations thereof means the Initial Alterations in the Premises have been performed in substantial accordance with the final plans, as reasonably determined by Tenant (other than any details of construction, mechanical adjustment or other similar matter, the noncompletion of which does not materially interfere with Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises).

Construction Management. Tenant shall pay Landlord $5000.00 toward the construction management fee of Landlord’s construction manager.

In no event shall the Construction Allowance be used for the purchase of equipment, furniture or other items of personal property of Tenant. in the event Tenant does not use the entire Construction Allowance, any unused amount remaining after June 15, 2006, shall no longer be required to be applied to the initial Alterations, it being understood that ‘Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit, abatement or other concession in connection therewith. Tenant shall be responsible for ail applicable state sales or use taxes, if any, payable to connection with the Initial Alterations and/or Construction Allowance.

No Work by Landlord. Tenant agrees to accept the Premises in its “as-is” condition and configuration, it being agreed that Landlord shall not be required to perform any work or, except as provided above with respect to the Construction Allowance, incur any costs in connection with the construction or demolition of any improvements in the Premises.

This Exhibit shall not be deemed applicable to any additional space added to the original Premises at any time or from time to time, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, or to any portion of the original Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or extension of the original Term of this Lease, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, unless expressly so provided in the Lease or any amendment or supplement to the Lease.

Landlord’s and Tenant’s representatives for coordination of construction and approval of change orders will be as follows, provided that either party may change its representative upon written notice to the other:

FINAL PLANS

EXHIBIT E

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

This exhibit is attached to and made a part of the Lease dated February 20, 2006 by and between 560 Arapeen LLC, First Avenue LLC, and Seventh Avenue LLC (“Landlord”) and Amedica Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”) for space in the Building located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇.

The following are additional provisions to the Lease:

1. Termination of Tenant’s Existing Lease. Landlord and Tenant shall share equally the rental costs (rental costs shall include Triple Net rental amounts plus amounts due for building operating expenses, net of receipts attributable to subletting Tenant’s existing premises to a third party) associated with Tenant’s termination of approximately 3,378 rentable square feet located on the first floor of ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇. Landlord’s obligation shall commence on April 15, 2006, and continue through the earlier to occur of. the expiration of Tenant’s obligations under the existing lease, or in the even Tenant’s existing Landlord releases Tenant from its obligation. Both Tenant and Landlord will work diligently to cause the existing premises to be sublet to a third party if possible.

2. Rent Abatement. Landlord shall provide three (3) months of free base rent on the Premises commencing upon the Commencement Date. In addition, Tenant’s Base Rent for one half of the square footage in the Premises shall be abated through September 30, 2006. During the abatement period, Tenant shall be responsible for its share of Triple Net Costs and Operating Expenses applicable to the entire Premises.

3. Early Termination. Tenant may terminate the Lease at any time after thirty-six months of paying full rent upon six (6) months notice and upon payment at the time of notice of all unamortized tenant improvements and leasing commissions using a sixty (60) month amortization period together with interest at the rate of seven percent (7%) on such amount from the date of this Lease.

4. Right of First Refusal Tenant shall have a one (1) time only option regarding any vacant space on the first floor of the Building that is or becomes available during the Lease Term, subject however to the prior rights of existing tenants. Upon any such space becoming available, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of the space availability and Tenant shall have ten (10) days to exercise the option to immediately begin leasing the additional space at the same rental rates as apply to Tenant’s existing Premises. Landlord shall provide a tenant improvement allowance as follows:


Expansion Year of Lease Term	Tenant Improvement Allowance Per Rentable Square Foot
1	$	10.00
2	$	8.00
3	$	6.00
4	$	4.00
5		None

Once additional space has been offered to Tenant one time, Landlord shall have no further obligation to offer other vacant space to Tenant.

5. Renewal Option. (a) So long as Tenant is not in default at the expiration of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall be granted one (1) renewal option for a three (3) year period. If Tenant elects to exercise this option, Tenant shall give Landlord one-hundred eighty (180) days written notice, with the base rental increasing to fair market rental rates then in effect. The base rent shall not be less than in effect at the end of the initial term of this Lease.

(b) The term “fair market rental rate” as used in the Lease shall mean the annual amount per square foot, projected during the option term, that a willing, institutional, non-equity renewal tenant (excluding sublease and assignment transactions) would pay, and a willing, institutional landlord of a comparable quality office building located in the Salt Lake City, Utah area, and in particular the University of Utah Research Park, would accept, in an arm’s length transaction (what Landlord is accepting in then current transactions for the Building may be used for purposes of projecting rent for the option term), for space of comparable size, quality and floor height as the Premises, taking into account the age, quality and layout of the existing improvements in the Premises, and taking into account items that professional real estate brokers or professional real estate appraisers customarily consider, including, but not limited to, rental rates, space availability, tenant size, tenant improvement allowances, parking charges and any other lease considerations, if any, then being charged or granted by Landlord or the lessors of such similar office buildings. The fair market rental rate will be an effective rate, not specifically including, but accounting for, the appropriate economic considerations described above.

(c) In the event where a determination of fair market rental rate is required under the Lease, Landlord shall provide written notice of Landlord’s determination of the fair market rental rate not later than thirty (30) days after the last day upon which Tenant may timely exercise the right giving rise to the necessity for such fair market rental rate determination. Tenant shall have ten (10) business days (“Tenant’s Review Period”) after receipt of Landlord’s notice of the fair market rental rate within which to accept such fair market rental rate or to reasonably object thereto in writing. Failure of Tenant to so object to the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord in writing within Tenant’s Review Period shall conclusively be deemed Tenant’s approval and acceptance thereof. If within Tenant’s Review Period Tenant reasonably objects to or is deemed to have disapproved the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord, Landlord and Tenant will meet together with their respective legal counsel to present and discuss their individual determinations of the fair market rental rate for the Premises under the parameters set forth in Paragraph (b) above and shall diligently and in good faith attempt to negotiate a rental rate on the basis of such individual determinations. Such meeting shall occur no later than ten (10) business days after the expiration of Tenant’s Review Period. The parties shall each provide the other with such supporting information and documentation as they deem appropriate. At such meeting if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the fair market rental rate, they shall each submit to the other their respective best and final offer as to the fair market rental rate. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on such fair market rental rate within five (5) business days following such a meeting (“Outside Agreement Date”), Tenant’s renewal option will be deemed null and void unless Tenant demands appraisal, in which event each party’s determination shall be submitted to appraisal in accordance with the provisions of Section (d) below.

(d)

(1) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one (1) independent appraiser who shall by profession be an M.A.I. certified real estate appraiser who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial (including office) properties in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. The determination of the appraisers shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s last proposed (as of the Outside Agreement Date) best and final fair market rental rate for the Premises is the closest to the actual fair market rental rate for the Premises as determined by the appraisers, taking into account the requirements specified in Section 1 above. Each such appraiser shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date.
