	*	Numbers are rounded due to combining of Premises. 

 2.2 If Tenant chooses to exercise the
Option, Landlord shall provide a maintenance allowance (the “Maintenance Allowance”) of TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($200,000). Tenant acknowledges that the Maintenance Allowance may only be used to pay for the maintenance and
repair of existing building systems. Landlord’s obligation to fund the Maintenance Allowance shall expire on December 31, 2016. 

2.3 The Option is not assignable separate and apart from this Lease. 

2.4 The Option is conditional upon Tenant giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise the Option before December 31, 2015.
Tenant assumes full responsibility for maintaining a record of the deadlines to exercise the Option. Tenant acknowledges that it would be inequitable to require Landlord to accept any exercise of the Option after the date provided for in this
Section 2.4.

 2.5 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 2 to the contrary, Tenant shall not have
the right to exercise the Option: 
 2.5.1. During the time commencing from the date Landlord delivers to Tenant a written notice that
Tenant is in default under any provisions of the Lease and continuing until Tenant has cured the specified default to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction; or 

2.5.2. At any time after any default as described in Article 24 of the Lease (provided, however, that, for purposes of this Subsection 2.5.2,
Landlord shall not be required to provide Tenant with notice of such default) and continuing until Tenant cures any such default, if such default is susceptible to being cured; or 

2.5.3. In the event that Tenant has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under the Lease two (2) or more times and a service
or late charge has become payable for each of such defaults during the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the date that Tenant intends to exercise the Option, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults. 

2.6 The period of time within which Tenant may exercise the Option shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to
exercise such Option because of the provisions of Section 2.5 above. 
 2.7 All of Tenant’s rights under the provisions of the
Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenant’s due and timely exercise of the Option if, after such exercise, but prior to January 1, 2016, (a) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of
Tenant for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, (b) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default (other than a monetary default) within thirty (30) days after the date Landlord gives notice to
Tenant of such default or (c) Tenant has defaulted under the Lease two (2) or more times and a service or late charge has become payable for any such default, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults. 

2.8 Effective the date of this Amendment, Landlord’s right to recapture the Recapturable Premises pursuant to Section 3 of the Fifth
Amendment to Lease shall be suspended. If Tenant exercises the Option in accordance with Section 2 of this Amendment, then Landlord’s right to recapture the Recapturable Premises pursuant to Section 3 of the Fifth Amendment to Lease
shall terminate effective January 1, 2016 and be of no further force or effect. If Tenant does not exercise the Option in accordance with Section 2 of this Amendment, then Landlord’s right to recapture the Recapturable Premises
pursuant to Section 3 of the Fifth Amendment to Lease shall be reinstated effective January 1, 2016, and Basic Annual Rent shall be as set forth in the Fifth Amendment to Lease.

 3. Condition of Premises. Tenant acknowledges that (a) it is in possession of and is
fully familiar with the condition of the Premises and, notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, agrees to take the same in its condition “as is” as of the first day of the Extension Term, and (b) Landlord shall
have no obligation to alter, repair or otherwise prepare the Premises for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the Extension Term or to pay for any improvements to the Premises, except as may be expressly provided in the Lease. 

4. Broker. Tenant represents and warrants that it has not dealt with any broker or agent in the negotiation for or the obtaining of
this Amendment and agrees to reimburse, indemnify, save, defend (at Landlord’s option and with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) and hold harmless the Landlord Indemnitees for, from and against
any and all cost or liability for compensation claimed by any such broker or agent employed or engaged by it or claiming to have been employed or engaged by it. 

5. No Default. Tenant represents, warrants and covenants that, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, Landlord and Tenant are not in
default of any of their respective obligations under the Existing Lease and no event has occurred that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice (or both) would constitute a default by either Landlord or Tenant thereunder. 

6. Notices. Tenant confirms that, notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, notices delivered to Tenant pursuant to the
Lease should be sent to: 
 ZP Opco, Inc. 

34790 Ardentech Court

7. Effect of Amendment. Except as modified by this Amendment, the Existing Lease and all the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions
and conditions thereof shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and affirmed. In the event of any conflict between the terms contained in this Amendment and the Existing Lease, the terms herein contained shall supersede and
control the obligations and liabilities of the parties. 
 8. Successors and Assigns. Each of the covenants, conditions and
agreements contained in this Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and shall apply to and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legatees, devisees, executors, administrators and permitted successors and assigns and
sublessees. Nothing in this section shall in any way alter the provisions of the Lease restricting assignment or subletting.

by Landlord and Tenant. The captions of the paragraphs and subparagraphs in this Amendment are inserted and included solely for convenience and shall not be considered or given any effect in construing the provisions hereof. All exhibits hereto are
incorporated herein by reference. Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or option for a lease, and shall not be effective as a lease, lease amendment or otherwise until execution by
and delivery to both Landlord and Tenant. 
 10. Authority. Tenant guarantees, warrants and represents that the individual or
individuals signing this Amendment have the power, authority and legal capacity to sign this Amendment on behalf of and to bind all entities, corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, joint venturers or other organizations and
entities on whose behalf such individual or individuals have signed. 
 11. Counterparts; Facsimile and PDF Signatures. This
Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same document. A facsimile or portable document format (PDF) signature on this Amendment shall be equivalent to, and have the
