the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining
a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection,
the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises.” Any CASp inspection shall be conducted in compliance with
reasonable rules in effect at the Building and shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written consent.

such party’s representatives. 
 12. Ratification; No Further Modification. Except as set forth in this Amendment, all of the
terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of the Lease shall apply with respect to the Premises, and the Lease shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. This Amendment shall be construed to be part of the Lease and shall be
deemed incorporated into the Lease by this reference. 
 13. Conflicting Terms. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the
Lease and this Amendment, the language of this Amendment shall control. 
 14. Severability of Provisions. In the event any one or
more of the provisions of this Amendment shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Amendment shall be
construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 












 15. Authority. Landlord and Tenant each warrant and represent to the other that it
has the authority to enter into this Amendment. 
 16. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding any law or presumption to the contrary. Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to
execute this Amendment by facsimile or by using an electronic signature, including those delivered by PDF or signed through the electronic system known as “DocuSign”, and any such facsimile or electronic signature shall be deemed valid and
binding and admissible by either party against the other as if same were an original ink signature. An email from either party or any of its agents, brokers, attorneys, employees or other representatives shall never constitute such party’s
electronic signature, unless the email includes the document with such party’s electronic signature in its signature block. If this Amendment has been executed by facsimile or electronic signature, including “DocuSign”, all parties
executing this Amendment are expressly consenting under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (“E-SIGN”), the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (“UETA”) and the
California Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (“CUETA”) that a signature by facsimile, electronic mail or other electronic means shall constitute an electronic signature to an electronic record under all applicable laws with respect to
this Amendment. 
 17. Successors and Assigns: Entire Agreement. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms, covenants
and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect and shall be binding on the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and may not be modified or terminated except by an agreement in writing between the parties.
The Lease, as amended by this Amendment, contains the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the transactions contemplated thereby, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, whether written or oral. Nothing in
this Amendment shall be construed as a waiver by Landlord of any legal or equitable right or remedy, and Landlord reserves all rights and remedies available under the Lease, at law or in equity. 

18. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without
reference to its conflict of law provisions.
