 STANDARD LEASE PROVISIONS 

ARTICLE 1 
 PREMISES

 Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant, and Tenant leases the Premises from Landlord for the Term according to the terms, covenants
and conditions of this Lease. Except as set forth in this Lease, Landlord has not made any representation or warranty with respect to the condition of the Premises or the Building or their suitability or fitness for the conduct of the Permitted Use,
and Tenant acknowledges that it has had a full opportunity to inspect the Premises and has occupied part of the Premises and that Tenant hereby is accepting the entire Premises in their AS IS, WHERE IS condition; provided, however,
that the Expansion Premises, within five (5) business days of the Effective Date, shall be delivered to Tenant in broom clean condition. 

ARTICLE 2 
 TERM 

The Term will commence on the Rent Commencement Date. Except as specifically provided in Section 3.3 below, until the Rent Commencement
Date, the Original Lease shall continue to govern the parties’ relationship, and their rights, duties and obligations with respect to the Original Premises. On the Rent Commencement Date, this Lease shall fully amend and restate the Original
Lease for all purposes. On the Rent Commencement Date, this Lease shall be effective and fully amend and restate the Original Lease for all purposes, all with the intent and effect that on such date the Original Lease shall thereupon be terminated
and replaced and superseded by this Lease. The Tenant’s obligation to pay rent will commence on the Rent Commencement Date. Between the Effective Date and the Rent Commencement Date, Exhibit B of this Lease will be effective and
shall provide and govern and control Tenant’s right, along with Tenant Parties (defined below), to enter the Expansion Premises for the purpose of completing the Improvements and Landlord’s obligations with regard to such construction
period, including Landlord’s obligation to fund the Construction Allowance. For purposes of determining the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant is deemed to be in beneficial occupancy of the Expansion Premises for the Permitted Use when Tenant takes
possession of any part of the Expansion Premises for any purpose other than constructing the Improvements and placing furniture and installing Tenant’s equipment in the Expansion Premises. When the Ready for Occupancy Date is determined,
Landlord and Tenant will confirm the date in writing, signed by both parties, and any resulting change in the Term under this Article 2. The “Ready for Occupancy Date” is the date on which the Improvements have been substantially
completed according to Exhibit B and any necessary occupancy permits have been obtained. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Tenant has the Option to Terminate this Lease as set forth in Section 3 of the Basic Lease Provisions. 
 ARTICLE 3

 RENT; LATE CHARGES 

3.1 Base Rent; Rent. Tenant agrees to pay Base Rent for the Premises as set forth in Section 4 of the Basic Lease Provisions.
Tenant will pay Base Rent in consecutive, monthly installments, in advance, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and continuing on the later of the first day of each calendar month of each Lease Year of the Term or five (5) days after the
date Landlord provides Tenant with an 

  
 8 












 
invoice. Landlord may send Tenant invoices, in batches in advance of any payment due date and, also, may send separate invoices for Base Rent and any additional rent payments. If the Rent
Commencement Date is a day other than the first day of a month, the Base Rent for the first Lease Year will be increased to add an amount, calculated on a per diem basis, for the period from the Rent Commencement Date through the end of the month in
which the Rent Commencement Date occurs. All amounts (other than Base Rent), payable by Tenant to Landlord are deemed to be “Additional Rent.” Base Rent and Additional Rent are sometimes together referred to in this Lease as
“Rent.” Rent will be payable to Landlord when due without any prior notice or demand in lawful money of the United States and without any abatement, offset, or deduction whatsoever, and at Landlord’s Address or to such other
person or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing to Tenant. 
 3.2 Late Charge; Interest. The
late payment of Rent will cause Landlord to incur administrative costs and other damages, the exact amount of which would be impracticable or extremely difficult to ascertain. Landlord and Tenant agree that if Landlord does not receive any such
payment on or before the date five (5) business days after the date the payment is due, Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, a late charge (“Late Charge”) equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount to cover
additional administrative costs. For any amount that is not paid within 60 days of the date it is due, interest on such delinquent amounts will accrue at the rate often percent (10%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”) from date that is
60 days after the date due until the date paid. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the correct Rent will be other than a payment on account, nor will any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter
accompanying any payment be an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept such a partial payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to pursue any other remedy in this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Late Charge shall not be
assigned against the first late payment in any twelve (12) month period. 
 3.3 Rent Abatement under the Original Lease. Upon
the parties’ full execution of this Lease, Base Rent for the Existing Premises under the Original Lease shall be abated for six (6) full months after the Effective Date of this Lease in the amount of $12,560.00 per month. In the Event of
Default under the Original Lease or this Lease, the entire amount of the Base Rent abated pursuant to this Section shall be due and owing by Tenant as Rent and immediately payable to Landlord without demand therefor. 

ARTICLE 4 
 SECURITY
DEPOSIT 
 The Security Deposit secures the faithful performance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease by Tenant. The
Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure or limit of Landlord’s damages upon an Event of Default. If an Event of Default occurs, Landlord may, but will not be required to, use, apply, or retain all or any part of the
Security Deposit (a) for the payment of any Rent, (b) for the payment of any other amount that Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of such default by Tenant, and (c) for any other loss or damages that Landlord
may suffer by reason of such default by Tenant. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant will, upon demand by Landlord, deposit with Landlord cash in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit fully. At the end
of this Lease, if no Event of Default exists, Landlord will return to Tenant the remaining portion of the Security Deposit within thirty (30) days after the date Landlord receives possession of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of
this Lease. The Security Deposit may be commingled with Landlord’s other funds, and no interest will be paid on it. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, then Landlord may assign the Security Deposit to the transferee and Landlord
will have no further liability or obligation for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant waives the provisions of any Laws, whether now or in the future in effect, or common law rule, to the contrary of this Article.

 5.3 Hazardous

successors and assigns (collectively, “Tenant Parties”); provided however, quantities of those Hazardous Materials customarily used in the conduct of the Permitted Use, may be used and stored at the Premises without Landlord’s
prior written consent, but only in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws ( defined below), and with the highest prevailing industry standards. Tenant will, at its sole cost and expense, promptly take all reasonable actions ( or at
Landlord’s election, reimburse Landlord for taking all actions) required by any Law that arises in connection with Tenant’s Handling of Hazardous Materials. Such actions will include, but not be limited to, the investigation of the
environmental condition of the Premises or any portion of the Building, the preparation 

  
 10 












 
of any feasibility studies or reports, and the performance of any cleanup, remediation, removal, or restoration work. Tenant will maintain and/or restore the Premises or any portion of the
Building and the surrounding land in accordance with applicable Environmental Laws to the extent required due to Tenant’s Handling of Hazardous Materials. “Environmentai Laws” means all Laws regulating, relating to, or imposing
liability or standards of conduct concerning public health and safety or the environment. ‘‘Hazardous Materials” means: (a) any material or substance: (i) that is defined or becomes defined as a “hazardous

installation, handling, generation, storage, treatment, use, disposal, discharge, release, manufacture, refinement, presence, migration, emission, abatement, removal, transportation, or any other activity of any type in connection with or involving
Hazardous Materials. 
 Landlord hereby represents to Tenant that Landlord, to its knowledge, is delivering possession of the Expansion
Premises to Tenant free of Hazardous Materials and in compliance with all Environmental Laws. Tenant currently occupies the Original Premises, so Landlord makes no representations as to the Original Premises. If any Hazardous Material is found, or
is otherwise released, discharged, disposed of, or permitted to spill or leak on or about the Building and is not caused by Tenant or Tenant’s Parties, Landlord shall ensure, at no cost to Tenant, that such release, discharge, disposal, spill
or leak is removed from the Premises, in accordance with the Environmental Laws. Subject to the terms and provisions of Section 28.19 of this Lease, Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant and Tenant Parties harmless from Environmental
Damages ( defined in Section 5 .5 below) relating to environmental conditions affecting the Premises, which damages are not in any way the result of, or related to, the acts, omissions or negligence of Tenant or Tenant’s Parties. 

Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of the use of any chemical in the Premises that has an NFPA 704M rating of 4 in either the health, fire

 5.4 Taxes. Tenant will pay directly to the taxing authority any tax on leasehold interests on property
owned by the State of Maryland (the “State”) pursuant to Maryland Annotated Code, Tax-Property Article Section 6-102(e), as amended, to the extent the
same is assessed against Landlord and is directly attributable to Tenant’s occupancy in the Premises, as well as any and all taxes, impositions or similar fees or charges imposed or assessed or with respect to any of Tenant’s fixtures,
equipment, or other personal property located in or about the Premises, but Tenant shall have no obligation to pay any other such tax, imposition, or similar fee or charge with respect to this Lease. Not later than ninety (90) days after the
Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall provide Landlord with reasonably satisfactory evidence that it is complying with the tax requirements herein. 

5.5 Waiver of Liability; Indemnification. Tenant waives all claims and causes of action against Landlord, its partners, property
managers, advisors, mortgagees, and ground landlords and each of their respective officers, managers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Parties”) for any damage to persons or
property in any way relating to Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises, or the condition of the Premises or Building, or land beneath all or any part of any of them, except to the extent such claim arises out of Landlord’s or Landlord
Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. Tenant will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Landlord and 

  
 11 












 
each of the Landlord Parties ( except to the extent the losses described below are solely caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of a Landlord Party), from and against any and all
third-party claims, demands, losses, damages, obligations, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs) (collectively, “Claims, Damages and Costs”) that arise out

and hold Tenant harmless from any Claims, Damages and Costs that solely arise out of (1) a breach of this Lease by Landlord or (2) any claim incurred or in any way related to or connected with the operation of the Building by Landlord or
Landlord’s Parties. 
 ARTICLE 6 

UTILITIES AND SERVICES 

6.1 Connection and Costs. Tenant will, at Tenant’s own expense, obtain all utility services supplying the Premises, including but
not limited to electricity, water, sewer, standby water for sprinkler, gas, telephone, and all other utilities and other communication services, in its own name, effective as of the Rent Commencement Date, and will pay the cost directly to the
applicable utility. Upon the Effective Date, Tenant will pay all utility charges for the Building and Premises. 
 6.2 Interruption of
Services. Landlord will not be liable for any failure to furnish, stoppage of, change in, or interruption in furnishing any of the services or utilities described in Section 6.1 or any cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. In any
such event, Tenant will not be entitled to any damages nor will any failure or interruption abate or suspend Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent or constitute a constructive or other eviction of Tenant, except that if Tenant is unable to use the
Premises for five (5) or more consecutive days, Rent shall be abated. If any Law controls the use or conservation of energy, water, gas, light, or electricity, the reduction of automobile or other emissions, or the provision of any other
utility or service, Landlord may take any reasonably appropriate action to comply with the Law. Security services provided by Landlord at the Building are for the protection of Landlord’s property and under no circumstances will Landlord be
responsible for, and Tenant waives any rights with respect to, providing security or other protection for Tenant, Tenant Parties or guests in the Building. 

ARTICLE 7 
 MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIRS 
 7.1 Tenant’s Obligations. Except for the obligations of Landlord as provided for in this Lease, Tenant will,
at its sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises in good order and repair and in a safe, clean, and neat condition. Tenant will provide all janitorial and cleaning services and make all repairs to the Premises with replacements of any materials
to be made by use of materials of equal or better quality. Further, Tenant will be responsible for, and upon demand promptly reimburse Landlord for, any damage to any portion of the Building or the Premises caused by (a) the performance or
existence of any alterations, additions, or improvements made by Tenant or for Tenant, including without limitation the Improvements; (b) the

installation, use, operation, or movement of Tenant’s property in or about the Building or the Premises; or (c) any negligent act or omission by Tenant or any person permitted in or
invited to the Premises or the Building by Tenant. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the Improvements as well as all Building Systems serving the Premises. 

7.2 Landlord’s Rights. Landlord and its contractors will have the right, with at least one (1) business day’s prior
written notice, to enter upon the Premises to inspect the Premises and perform any of the Landlord’s Obligations defined in Section 7.3 and to erect such equipment, including scaffolding, as is reasonably necessary to effect such repairs.
Such repairs shall be timely made and completed in a good and worlananlike manner. In the event of an emergency, Landlord may enter the Premises on less than one (1} business days’ notice, giving only such advance notice as may be appropriate
given the circumstances of the emergency. In addition, in the event of any failure of Tenant to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, where Tenant has failed to commence to cure within thirty (30) days after delivery by Landlord to
Tenant of written notice of such failure (or in the case of an emergency, after such oral or written notice, if any, as may be practical under the circumstances), Landlord may (but will not be obligated to) elect to perform such obligation of Tenant
at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and in the event of such performance by Landlord, Tenant will pay to Landlord within ten (10) days of written demand one hundred ten percent (110%) of Landlord’s actual direct and indirect costs
(including interest, overhead, general conditions, and administration) in performing obligations of Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if entry into the Premises by Landlord shall be requested in any area of the Premises used for other than
office purposes, such entry shall only be permitted if Landlord is accompanied by a representative of Tenant. 
 7.3 Landlord’s
Obligations. Landlord shall maintain, repair or replace, as necessary: (a) the structural and exterior portions of the Building including roofing and covering materials, foundations, and exterior walls and windows, (b) the life-safety
sprinklers and fire panel (including associated monitoring of the fire panel and elevator safety) within the Building, (c) snow removal from all entrances, driveways and parking areas associated with the Building, and ( d) continue to perform
the landscaping of the outdoor areas. in a manner consistent with that as has been previously provided. Tenant shall provide prompt notice to Landlord when such maintenance, repairs and/or replacements are required, and Landlord will respond in a
commercially reasonable time to complete the work which it is obligated to complete under this Section. Tenant shall not incur any costs or expense for Landlord’s work, except in the event that Tenant’s wrongful or negligent acts or
omissions solely caused the need for such maintenance, repairs and/or replacements. 
 7.4 Rent Adjustment for Certain Landlord Obligation.
The Landlord’s Obligations described in Section 7.3, with respect to the Expansion Premises, do not commence until the Rent Commencement Date. Between the Effective Date and the Rent Commencement Date, entry to the Expansion Premises is
governed by the license provided in Exhibit B. If, however, during construction of the Improvements, the Tenant elects to undertake the repair or replacement of structural and exterior portions of the Building including roofing and
covering materials, foundations, and exterior walls and windows, then in that event, Tenant shall undertake such repair or replacement (the “Landlord’s Obligation Pre-Occupancy
Improvements”) as an “Improvement” to be done to “Building Standard” as those terms are defined in Exhibit B and-for those Landlord’s Obligation
Pre-Occupancy Improvements only-Tenant shall be entitled to a rent credit, calculated as follows: 
  

	 	a.	 Tenant shall separately account for, and provide Landlord with reasonably acceptable evidence of the
stand-alone cost of the Landlord’s Obligation Pre-Occupancy Improvements. 



  
 13 













	 	b.	 This total cost which, for purposes of calculating a rent credit, is capped at a maximum of $175,000;



  

	 	c.	 The total cost shall then be amortized, at an interest rate of 5%, over 36 months. 



 

	 	d.	 That amortized amount shall be deducted from each monthly installment of Base Rent. 



 

	 	e.	 As an illustration, if the Landlord’s Obligation Pre-Occupancy
Improvements undertaken by Tenant cost $150,000, then the credit is calculated by amortizing that $150,000 over 36 months at 5% interest, such that the monthly credit to Base Rent is $4,495.63 commencing on the Rent Commencement Date.



  

	 	f.	 Tenant will provide the University with all warranties for all such work and, if requented, assign them to the
University.

obligations with respect to the Construction Allowance described in the Work Letter) will pay when due all costs for work performed·and materials supplied to the Premises. Tenant will keep Landlord and the Premises free from all liens, stop
notices, and violation notices relating to the Alterations or any other work performed for, materials furnished to, or obligations incurred by Tenant. Tenant will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Landlord and the Premises from any and all loss,
cost, damage, liability, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to any liens or notices of any liens. Tenant will give Landlord not less than seven (7) days prior written notice before commencing any

If Tenant fails to pay and remove such lien, claim or encumbrance within such applicable period, Landlord, at its election, may pay and satisfy it and the sums so paid by Landlord, with interest from the date of payment at the Interest Rate, will be
deemed to be Additional Rent due and payable by Tenant without notice or demand. Tenant’s obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

improved) on the Rent Commencement Date, subject to ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty. Except for Alterations that Tenant agreed to remove at the end of this Lease according to Article 8 and Alterations that Landlord requires Tenant to
remove by written notice given at the time Landlord provides its consent, all Alterations will become a part of the Premises and will become the property of Landlord at the end of the Term. In that event, Tenant will promptly remove prior to the end

11.3 Policy Requirements. All insurance required to be maintained by Tenant will be issued by insurance companies authorized to do
insurance business in the State of Maryland and rated not less than A:X in Best’s Insurance Guide. All such insurance policies will be written as primary policies, not excess or contributing with or secondary to any other insurance as may be
available to Landlord or to the additional insureds. A certificate or evidence of insurance evidencing the insurance required under this Article will be delivered to Landlord within five (5) days of the Effective Date, but, in any event, before
Tenant enters the Building to construct the Improvements. Notice of cancellation shall be provided to Landlord in accordance with policy terms. Tenant will have the right to provide the insurance required by this Article 11 pursuant to blanket
policies, but only if such blanket policies expressly provide coverage to the Premises and the Landlord as required by this Lease without regard to claims made under such policies with respect to other persons. 

11.4 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord waives all rights of recovery against Tenant for or arising out of damage to, or destruction of,
the Premises or the Building from causes then included under causes of loss “special form” insurance policies or endorsements, which waiver includes any deductible amount. 

  
 16 












 
Tenant waives any and all rights of recovery against Landlord for or arising out of damage to or destruction of, any property of Tenant, from causes then included under causes of loss
“special form” insurance policies or endorsements. Tenant represents that its present insurance policies now in force permit such waiver. 

11.5 Failure to Insure. If Tenant fails to maintain any insurance that Tenant is required to maintain, Tenant will be liable to
Landlord for any loss or cost resulting from such failure to maintain. Landlord will have the right, in its sole discretion, to procure and maintain insurance that Tenant is required to maintain and the cost will be deemed Additional Rent due and
payable by Tenant. Tenant will not self-insure against any risks required to be covered by insurance provided by Tenant without Landlord’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. 

11.6 Miscellaneous. Landlord makes no representation that the insurance coverage specified to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this
Article is adequate to protect Tenant against Tenant’s undertaking under this Lease, and if Tenant believes that any insurance coverage is insufficient, Tenant will provide, at its own expense, such additional insurance as Tenant deems
adequate. Tenant will not keep, use, sell, or offer for sale in or upon the Premises any article which may be prohibited by any insurance policy periodically in force covering the Premises or the Building. If any of Landlord’s insurance
policies are cancelled or cancellation is threatened or the coverage reduced or threatened to be reduced in any way because of the use of the Premises in violation of the Permitted Use by Tenant or any assignee, subtenant, licensee, or invitee of
Tenant and, if Tenant fails to remedy the condition giving rise to such cancellation, threatened cancellation, reduction of coverage, or threatened reduction of coverage, within forty-eight (48) hours after written notice, Landlord may, at its
option, either terminate this Lease or enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such condition, and Tenant will promptly pay the cost to Landlord as ~Additional Rent. Landlord will not be liable for any damage or injury caused to any property
of Tenant or of others located on the Premises resulting from such entry. If Landlord is unable, or elects not to remedy such condition, then Landlord will have all of the remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Tenant will not do or
permit to be done any act or things upon or about the Premises that will (a) result in the assertion of any defense by the insurer to any claim, (b) invalidate, (c) be in conflict with the insurance policies of Landlord or Tenant covering
the Building, the Premises, or fixtures and property, or that would increase the rate of fire insurance applicable to the Building, or (d) which might subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person or persons or to
property. 
 11. 7 Waiver of Landlord’s Liability. 

(a) Except to the extent such waiver is prohibited by applicable Laws as against public policy, Landlord will not be liable or in any way
responsible to Tenant or Tenant Parties for any loss, injury, or damage suffered by Tenant, Tenant Parties or others caused by: (i) loss, theft, damage, or destruction of any property of Tenant (including without limitation computer storage
devices, money, securities, negotiable instruments, papers, or other valuables) or others whether or not the property is entrusted to the care or control of Landlord; or (ii) injury or damage to persons or property resulting from the use of the
Building (including without limitation any exercise facilities), or from fire, smoke, dampness, explosion, falling plaster or ceiling tiles, broken glass, soil under all or part of the Building, escaping steam, gas, fumes, vapors or odors,

suspension of any such utilities or services; or (v) any act or omission (including theft, malfeasance, or negligence) on the part of any agent, contractor, sub-contractor or person engaged to perform
janitorial or security services by Landlord or Landlord Parties; or (vi) any failure of Landlord to conduct cleaning, repairs, replacements, or maintenance, regardless if provided by Landlord; or (vii) any damage, injury or loss suffered
to the Premises or the contents by reason of Landlord entering the Premises to examine the Premises or the contents or to carry on any work in the Premises; or (viii) any loss, damage, or inconvenience suffered or incurred by Tenant or caused
to Tenant’s business or property as a direct or indirect result of any act Landlord may take in remedying or attempting to remedy any Event of Default; or (ix) anything whatsoever in relation to the
non-observance or violation of any provision of: (A) any rules and regulations that Landlord may reasonably promulgate and provide written notice thereof to Tenant; or (B) any other lease, sublease,
license, or other occupancy agreement respecting any part of the Building by any other tenant, subtenant, licensee, occupant, or other person. 

(b) Intentionally Deleted. 

(c) Tenant’s obligations and liabilities in this Section 11. 7 will survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. 

11.8 Indemnity. In addition to any other indemnity obligation in this lease, except in the event of the negligence or misconduct of
Landlord, Tenant will, to the extent of its negligence or willful misconduct, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s Parties against any and all Claims, Damages and Costs arising from or related to (a) injury of any kind to
any person (including injury resulting in death, personal discomfort, mental anguish, shock, sickness, disease, invasion of privacy, wrongful entry, eviction, or discrimination) occurring at, in or about the Premises and the exercise facilities by
users of them with the express or implied permission of Tenant, and (b) any work done by, or act of neglect or omission of Tenant or Tenant Parties. Subject to the terms and provisions of Section 28.19 of this Lease, Landlord agrees to
indemnify, save, defend (at Tenant’s option and with counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant), and hold Tenant and Tenant Parties harmless from and against any and all Claims suffered by or claimed against Tenant or Tenant Parties based on,
arising out of or resulting from Landlord’s or Landlord Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or any other breach of this Lease by Landlord. Tenant’s and Landlord’s obligations and liabilities in this Section 11.8
will survive the end of this Lease. 
 11.9 Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord is a constituent institution of the University System
of Maryland and, as such, is an instrumentality of the State of Maryland and a public corporation pursuant to Maryland Annotated Code, Education Article, Section 12-102. Insurance on the Building and the
liability of State personnel is administered through the Insurance Division of the Treasurer of the State of Maryland. The Insurance Division is responsible for administering the State’s Insurance Program which is comprised of both commercial
and self-insurance. Commercial insurance policies are procured to cover catastrophic property and liability losses, and other obligations derived from State contracts, statutes and regulations. Among the several exposures covered by commercial
policies are State maintained toll bridges and tunnels, rail operations, assorted professional liability exposures and student athlete accidents. The State also self-insures a significant portion of its exposures and maintains the State Insurance
Trust Fund to pay claims and the costs associated with handling those claims. Self-insurance coverage includes State-owned real and personal property, vehicles, and liability claims covered under the “Maryland Tort Claims Act”, §§12-101 et seq. of the State Government Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland.

 ARTICLE 12 

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION 

12.1 Repair of the Premises. Tenant will promptly notify Landlord in writing (a “Damage Notice”) of any event, damage,
or condition to which this Article is or may be applicable. Landlord will, within a reasonable time after the discovery by Landlord of any damage, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s
reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article, begin to repair the damage to the Building for which Landlord has an obligation to maintain under this Lease, resulting from such damage and will proceed with reasonable diligence
to restore the Building to substantially the condition as existed immediately before such damage, except for modifications required by applicable Laws or covenants, conditions, and restrictions, and modifications to the Building deemed desirable in
good faith by Landlord. Landlord will not be required to repair or replace any Alterations, furniture, equipment, fixtures, and other improvements that may, at any time, have been placed by, or at the request of, Tenant. Except as provided for in
this Lease, Landlord will have no liability for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to Tenant’s business as a result of any damage, or Landlord’s Restoration (defined in Section 12.2) activities hereunder, regardless of
the cause therefor. Base Rent and Additional Rent, payable under Article 3, will abate if and to the extent damage which the Landlord is obliged to repair occurs to the Premises and as a result all or any material portion of the Premises are
rendered unfit for occupancy, and are not occupied by Tenant, or Tenant cannot carry on the Permitted Use for its intended purposes, commencing on the date Tenant vacates the affected portion of the Premises and continuing until the date the
Restoration to be performed by Landlord with respect to the Premises is substantially complete. Tenant will assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required
under this Lease with respect to the leasehold improvements in the Premises that are part of the Restoration work. 
 12.2 Exceptions to
Landlord’s Obligations. Landlord will have no obligation to repair the Premises and either party will have the right to terminate this Lease if (a) any portion of the Premises or any material portion of the Building is damaged and
(b) (i) Landlord estimates in good faith that the repair and restoration of such damage under Section 12.1 (“Restoration”) cannot reasonably be completed (without the payment of overtime) within two hundred and ten
(210) days after the date of such damage, or (ii) such damage occurs (or Landlord discovers the Damage) at any time after the end of the seventh Lease Year. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing (not later than 45 days after the date of
the Damage Notice) of its determination that the Restoration cannot be accomplished within 210 days, as described above (the “Non-Restoration Notice”). Each party’s right of termination
will be exercisable by delivery of written notice to the other party within forty-five (45) days following the delivery of the Non-Restoration Notice or, if the damage occurs after the end of the seventh
Lease Year, within 45 days of the date of the Damage Notice. Termination will be effective upon delivery of such notice of termination (or if Tenant has not vacated the Premises, upon the expiration of thirty (30) days). 

ARTICLE 13 
 CONDEMNATION

 If the whole or a material portion of the Premises (which for purposes of this Section shall mean a reduction in usable floor area of
the Premises of such an extent so as to materially adversely affect the ability of Tenant to carry on its business in the Premises) or the Building is taken under the power of eminent domain (which may not be exercised by Landlord as an
instrumentality of the State of Maryland), or sold to prevent the taking (collectively, a “Taking”), this Lease will automatically terminate as of the day before the date of such Taking. If a Taking of such portion of the Building
or the Premises, in the opinion of 

  
 19 












 
Landlord or Tenant, substantially interferes with its operation, Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other party given at any time
within sixty (60) days following the date of such Taking. The date of Taking will be the earlier of the date of transfer of title resulting from such Taking or the date of transfer of possession resulting from such Taking. If a portion of the
Premises is taken and this Lease is not terminated, Landlord will, with reasonable diligence, proceed to restore (to the extent permitted by the Laws and covenants, conditions, and restrictions then applicable to the Building) the Premises (other
than Tenant’s personal property and fixtures, and tenant improvements (including without limitation the Improvements), not constituting building standard installations) to a complete, functioning unit, to the extent of the condemnation award
received by Landlord. In such case, the Base Rent and Additional Rent (if any) will be reduced proportionately based on the portion of the Premises so taken. The entire award for any Taking will belong to Landlord, without deduction for any estate,
interest of claim of Tenant, except that Tenant will be entitled to pursue independently a separate award relating to the loss of, or damage to, Tenant’s personal property and trade fixtures and Tenant’s relocation costs directly
associated with the Taking. Tenant will not assert any claim against Landlord or the condemning authority for, and hereby assigns to Landlord, any compensation in connection with any such Taking. 

ARTICLE 14 
 EDUCATIONAL
PURPOSE; AFFILIATE STATUS 
 Section 15-107 of the Education Article of the Maryland
Annotated Code encourages public senior higher education institutions to promote the economic development of the State through arrangements with the private sector. To that end, Tenant represents that it intends to (but does not guarantee) the
creation of not fewer than 50 new jobs enabled by the construction of the Expansion Premises and further both parties agree that Tenant specializes in an area of research and development important to the economic development goals of the State and
one in which the Landlord has made significant prior investment. Tenant may elect to become an “Approved Tenant” as that term is defined in University of Maryland Policy VI-28.00(A), the benefits to
Tenant include eligibility for access to the following University facilities, resources and privileges (on a space available basis, with University faculty, staff and students taking precedence), and subject to the fees, conditions and restrictions
applicable to University faculty and staff:

(B) all or substantially all of whose outstanding shares are owned by Tenant or by an entity that owns or controls all or substantially all of Tenant’s outstanding shares, (C) any entity into which or with which Tenant is merged or
consolidated or which is merged or consolidated into or with Tenant, or (D) that acquires all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets, will not be subject to Sections 15.1, 15.2, 15.3, 15.4, 15.5, or 15.6; however, Tenant will promptly
give Landlord notice of the Transfer and a fully executed copy of the assumption agreement. 
 15.2 Notice to Landlord. If Tenant
desires to make a Transfer, Tenant will submit to Landlord a written request (a “Transfer Notice”) for Landlord’s consent, at least twenty (20) days (but no more than one hundred eighty (180) days) prior to the

 21 












 (c) If Tenant modifies any of the terms and conditions relevant to a proposed Transfer
specified in the Transfer Notice in any material respect, Tenant will re-submit the Transfer Notice to Landlord for its consent. 

15.3 Intentionally Deleted. 

15.4 Dispute Resolution. If Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent or
otherwise acted in a manner not permitted under this Article 15, then the sole remedy will be a declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought without any monetary damages or other monetary relief. Tenant and each proposed Transferee
waive to the maximum extent permitted by Law any and all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease with respect to any such claim. Tenant will indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless
Landlord from any and all Claims, Damages and Costs involving or asserted by any third party or parties (including, without limitation, Tenant’s proposed Transferee and any broker representing Tenant or such Transferee) claiming they were

15.5 Sublease Profits. If Landlord consents to any sublease, upon Landlord’s demand, Tenant will pay to Landlord fifty (50%) of
all Rent, Additional Rent, or any other consideration paid by or on behalf of such subtenant in connection with the sublease in excess of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the period of the sublease (net of any

exhausting its remedies against such Transferee. 
 15.8 Non-Waiver. The consent to any
Transfer will not relieve Tenant, or any person claiming through or by Tenant, of the obligation to obtain the consent to any further Transfer. If a Transfer occurs, Landlord may collect Rent from the Transferee without waiving any rights hereunder
and collection of the Rent from a person other than Tenant will not be deemed a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights, an acceptance of Transferee as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the performance of Tenant’s obligations.

 ARTICLE 16 

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 
 16.1
Events of Default. “Events of Default” are: 
 (a) Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent in full within five
(5) days’ written notice that it is due or past due. That notice will be in lieu of any notice required under any Laws now or in the future is in effect requiring that notice of default be given prior to commencement of an unlawful
detainer or other legal proceeding. 
 (b) Any failure by Tenant to execute and deliver any statement or document required to be executed or

notice required under any Laws now or in the future in effect requiring that notice of default be given prior to commencement of an unlawful detainer or other legal proceeding. 

(c) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other non-monetary provision of this Lease if such
failure continues for thirty (30) days ( except if a different period of time is specified in this Lease, in which case such different time period will apply) after written notice; however, if the nature of the default is such that it cannot be
cured within the thirty (30) day period, no Event of Default will exist if Tenant commences curing the default within the thirty (30) day period and is diligently prosecuting the cure to completion. The thirty (30) days’ notice
will be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under any Laws now or in the future in effect requiring that notice of default be given prior to the commencement of an unlawful detainer or other legal proceeding. 

(d) The maldng or furnishing by Tenant of any false or misleading representation. 

(e) The assignment, subletting or other Transfer, or any attempted assignment, subletting or other Transfer, of this Lease in violation of

 (f) Any instance whereby Tenant or any general partner of Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors,

answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any such proceeding, consents to the filing of such a petition, or acquiesces in the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, or other similar official for it or of
all or any substantial part of its assets or properties, or takes any action looking to its dissolution or liquidation. 
 (g) The
commencement of a case, proceeding, or other action against Tenant or any general partner of Tenant seeking the entry of an order for relief against Tenant or any general partner thereof as debtor, to adjudicate Tenant or any general partner thereof
as a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief against Tenant or any general partner thereof under the Bankruptcy Code or any other present or future similar statute,
law, rule, or regulation, which case, proceeding, or other action either results in such entry, adjudication, or issuance or entry of any other order or judgment having a similar effect, or remains undismissed for sixty ( 60) days, or within sixty (
60) days after the appointment (without Tenant’s or such general partner’s consent) of any trustee, receiver, custodian, or other similar official for it or such general partner, or of all or any substantial part of its or such general
partner’s assets and properties, such appointment will not be vacated. 

  
 23 












 (h) The appointment of a receiver, trustee, or custodian to take possession of all or any
substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, or the formation of any committee of Tenant’s creditors, or any class of them, for the purpose of monitoring or investigating the financial affairs of Tenant or enforcing such creditors’ rights.

 16.2 Landlord’s Right to Terminate upon Tenant Default. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Landlord will have
the right to terminate this Lease and recover possession of the Premises by written notice to Tenant. In that event, Landlord will be entitled to receive from Tenant: 

(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of such termination, plus 

(b) The unamortized amount of the Construction Allowance, calculated on a straight line basis for the Lease Term, if not otherwise fully
recovered in the calculation of Rent 16.2(a) above, plus 
 (c) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of
the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law. 
 “Worth at the time of award” will be computed by
allowing interest at the “prime rate” or “reference rate” announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.T. & S.A. (or such reasonable comparable national banking institution as is selected by Landlord if Bank of America,
N.T. & S.A. ceases to publish a prime rate or reference rate), plus one percent (1%). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord,
whether it elects to terminate or continue the Lease upon Tenant Default, shall have an express duty to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises at the
then-current fair market rental rate. 
 16.3 Landlord’s Right to Continue Lease upon Tenant Default. If an Event of Default
occurs and Landlord does not terminate this Lease, Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease. Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and
recover Rent as it becomes due. The proceeds of any reletting will be applied first to pay to Landlord all costs and expenses of reletting (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of retaking the Premises, removing persons and property,
securing new tenants, including expenses for redecoration, alterations, and other costs in connection with preparing the Premises for the new tenant, and if Landlord maintains and operates the Premises, the costs to do so) and receivers’ fees
incurred in connection with the appointment of and performance by a receiver to protect the Premises and Landlord’s interest under this Lease and any necessary or reasonable alterations; second, to the payment of any indebtedness of Tenant to
Landlord other than Rent; third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, will be held by Landlord and applied in payment of other or future obligations of Tenant to Landlord as the same may become due and payable,
and Tenant will not be entitled to receive any portion of such revenue. No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section will be an election to terminate this Lease
unless a written notice of such election is given to Tenant or unless the termination is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Landlord may, at any time after reletting, elect to terminate this Lease, without Landlord waiving any rights to
demand and make claim for the Rent due for the balance of the Lease Term as if the Lease had not been terminated. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing when the Premises or any portion thereof are sublet, Landlord may collect directly from
the subtenant all rentals becoming due to the Tenant and apply such rentals against other sums due to Landlord without prejudice to any other remedies. 

  
 24 












 16.4 Right of Landlord to Performance. If Tenant fails to pay any money required to
be paid by it other than Base Rent or fails to perform any other act to be performed by it, then, Landlord may cure the failure at the expense of Tenant immediately and without notice in the case (i) of emergency, (ii) where the failure
unreasonably interferes with any other tenant in the Building, or (iii) where the failure will result in the violation of Law or the cancellation of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord. Any sums paid by Landlord and all incidental
costs, together with interest thereon at the lesser of maximum rate permitted by law or twelve percent (12%) from the date of payment, will be payable to Landlord as Additional Rent on demand, and Landlord will have the same rights and remedies in
the event of nonpayment as in the case of the failure by Tenant in the payment of Rent. 
 16.5 Subleases of Tenant. If Landlord
elects to succeed to Tenant’s interest, Tenant will have no further right to or interest in the Rent or other consideration receivable under and subleases, licenses, concessions, or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by
Tenant and affecting the Premises, as of the date of notice by Landlord of its election. 
 16.6
Non-Waiver. Landlord’s rights to indemnification for liabilities arising before termination under this Article will survive the termination of this Lease. Landlord’s acceptance of a lesser sum
than the Rent then due will be on account of the earliest installment of Rent due. No endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent is an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept payment
without prejudice to its right to recover the balance of or pursue any other remedy. The delivery of keys to any employee or agent of Landlord will not operate as a surrender of the Premises. 

16.7 WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. LANDLORD AND TENANT WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF THIS LEASE.

 16.8 Cumulative Remedies. The remedies to this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or
means of redress in case of any breach or threatened breach by either party. In addition to the other remedies, Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, will be entitled to an injunction of the breach or attempted or threatened specific performance of
this Lease. 
 16.9 Default by Landlord. Landlord’s failure to perform or observe any of its obligations under this Lease will
constitute a default by Landlord under this Lease only if such failure continues for a period often (10) days (or the additional time to cure, not to exceed ninety (90) days in total, that is reasonably necessary to cure the failure
provided Landlord commences to cure, with commercially reasonable efforts, within 10 days of the date of Tenant’s notice) after Landlord receives written notice from Tenant specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the failure
and the Lease provision containing the obligation in question, and an Event of Default by Tenant has not occurred at the time of such notice. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Lease, following the occurrence of any such Landlord default,
Tenant will have the right to pursue any remedy available under Law for such default by Landlord. Notwithstanding anything herein contained in this Lease to the contrary, each Landlord and Tenant acknowledges to the other that neither party shall be
liable to the other for indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive damages or damages for lost profits.

reimburse Tenant for any damage caused by or resulting from such forced entry (unless the emergency is conclusively determined to have been solely caused by Tenant). Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord in accordance with this Section will
not be a forcible or unlawful entry into the Premises, or an eviction or a termination of Tenant’s duties.

obligation to indemnify or hold harmless occurs and to the extent a tortious claim is involved, the Landlord’s indemnification obligation shall not be greater than that determined under the Maryland Tort Claims Act, as if the claim had been
directly asserted against the Landlord under the Maryland Tort Claims Act. Notwithstanding any obligation of indemnification, Landlord is not waiving any other common law governmental immunities and defenses. For Landlord’s indemnification

Letter is dated March 12, 2020, between the University of Maryland, College Park (“Landlord”) and ionQ, Inc. (“Tenant”). 

RECITALS: 
 A. This Work
Letter is attached to and forms a part of that certain Amended and Restated Lease dated March 12, 2020 (“Lease”), pursuant to which Landlord has leased to Tenant office and lab space in the Building. 

B. In addition to certain improvements to the Original Premises, such as the “Site Line Entry” and select painting as shown or

Expansion Premises in accordance with the “Issue for Permit & Bid” dated 11/1/2019, amended by “Issue for VE Changes - Arch & MEP” dated 01/27/2020 collectively referred to herein as the “Expansion
Plan”, and the parties agree to have Tenant, at its sole expense (subject to the application of the Construction Allowance provided by Landlord as described below) and risk, enter the Expansion Premises and make such initial improvements, prior
to occupancy, upon the terms and conditions contained in this Work Letter. 
 1. Definitions. In this Work Letter, some defined terms
are used. They are: 
 (a) Tenant’s Representative: Mahsa Domajafi 

Call at 301-298-7997 or
E-mail domajafi@ionq.com. 
 (b) Landlord’s Representative: Bill Campbell 

Call at 301.405 .2824 or E-mail at wcampbel@umd.edu. 

(c) Construction Schedule: A schedule depicting the relative time frames for various activities related to the construction of the
Improvements in the Expansion Premises. 
 (d) Improvements: The Improvements and related work are inclusive of the following: 

(i) The development of the Expansion Plan. 

(ii) All construction work necessary to augment the Building, creating the details and partitioning shown on the Expansion Plan . The work
will create finished ceilings, walls, and floor surfaces, as well as complete HVAC, lighting, electrical, and fire protection systems, and IT/AV/Security infrastructure required to serve the Expansion Premises and the entire Premises as applicable.

 (iii) Construction modifications made to the Original Premises, as described in the Expansion Plan, including as of the Effective Date
(A) creating a line of sight straight back from the entryway of the Original Premises to a to-be-created opening leading into the Expansion Premises by removing
certain 

  
 36 












 
walls that currently exist, (B) ensuring that all systems installed will service the Premises as required under the Laws, (C) installing new floor covering over the straight travel path
from the existing front entry in the Original Premises to the to-be created opening to the Expansion Premises and in any open areas adjacent to the travel path so that all visible floor areas from this travel
path appear the same, and (D) repainting the Original Premises as needed to match or complement the Expansion Premises viewable from the Original Premises. 

The Improvements will not include personal property items of any type, decorator items or services, artwork, plants, furniture or other
fixtures not permanently affixed to the Premises. 
 (e) Cost of the Improvements: The Cost includes, but is not limited to, the
following: 
 (i) All architectural and engineering, or other professional fees and expenses. 

(ii) All contractor and construction manager costs and fees. 

(iii) All permits and taxes. 

(f) Change Order: Any change, modification, or addition to the Expansion Plan after Landlord has approved the same. 

(g) Building Standard: The Improvements will be subject to, and will conform with, the Landlord’s 2016 Design Criteria/Facility
Standard Construction which is available online at https://facilities .umd.edu/2016-design-criteriafacilities-standards as of the Effective Date. 

2. Representatives. Landlord appoints Landlord’s Representative to act for Landlord in all matters associated with this Work
Letter. Tenant appoints Tenant’s Representative to act for Tenant in all matters associated with this Work Letter. All inquiries, requests, instructions, authorizations, and other communications with respect to the matters covered by this Work
Letter will be made to Landlord’s Representative or Tenant’s Representative, as the case may be. Either party may change its Representative under this Work Letter at any time by providing three (3) days’ prior written notice to
the other party. 
 3. Building Design and Construction. All work will be performed by designers and contractors selected, engaged
and paid by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. 
 4. Cost Responsibilities; Construction Allowance. 

Tenant will construct the Improvements . Landlord will provide the Construction Allowance (as defined in Article 1 of the Lease) to fund the
cost of construction to the extent it does not exceed the Construction Allowance. The Construction Allowance will be disbursed by Landlord pursuant to Section 8 of this Exhibit B. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for 100% of the utility
charges to Landlord for the Building (other than those charges billed directly to Tenant) unless Tenant reasonably demonstrates that Landlord is drawing utility services in the Building for Landlord’s own purposes, in which case Landlord will
charge the Tenant for utility usage based upon the proportionate share of utility usage (calculated on a per square foot basis) in the Building during any such dual usage period. Any construction-related utility charges may be assessed against, and
deducted from, the Construction Allowance. 

  
 37 












 5. Landlord’s Approval. Landlord has approved the Expansion Plan. Change Orders
must be approved in writing by the Landlord, which approval shall not be umeasonably withheld, conditioned, excepted, or delayed. Landlord, in its sole discretion, may withhold its approval of any Change Order that: 

(a) Exceeds or adversely affects the structural integrity of the Building, or any part of the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing,
mechanical, electrical, communication, or other systems of the Building; 
 (b) Would not be approved by a prudent owner of property similar
to the Building; 
 (c) Violates any agreement that affects the Building or binds the Landlord; 

(d) Landlord reasonably believes will increase the cost of operation or maintenance of any of the systems of the Building; 

(e) Does not conform to applicable building codes and Laws or is not approved, or would not be approved, by any governmental,
quasi-governmental, or utility authority with jurisdiction over the Premises; or 
 (f) Does not conform to the Building Standard. 

6. Schedule of lmprovement Activities. 

(a) After the Effective Date, Tenant will cause additional application to be made to the appropriate governmental authorities and to Landlord
for necessary approvals and building permits, as applicable, with the assistance of Landlord, as long as Landlord incurs no cost. Upon receipt of the necessary approvals and permits, Tenant may begin construction of the Improvements subject to
Tenant presenting to Landlord evidence of Tenant’s required insurance coverage under the Lease, including without limitation a Builder’s Risk Policy acceptable to Landlord with a minimum coverage amount of the full costs of completion of
the Improvements. At no time will Tenant’s work violate the City of College Park’s noise ordinance (Chapter 138 of the Code of the City of College Park, Maryland). 

(b) Landlord’s approval of the Expansion Plan will create no responsibility or liability on the part of Landlord for the completeness,
design sufficiency, or compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations of governmental agencies or authorities with respect to such plans, specifications, and Improvements constructed in conformity with them. However, the University’s final
approval of construction—including University Fire Marshall approval—will evidence the sole legal authority and approval for Tenant to use and occupy the Premises. The University represents that neither Prince George’s County nor the
City of College Park have regulatory authority over the Premises. 
 (c) Landlord must review and approve any Change Orders that materially
change the nature of the work to be performed (but not those that only address pricing or matters not related to the work). 

  
 38 












 (d) Pursuant to the terms of the Lease, Tenant will have exclusive use of all areas on the
outside of the Building and therefore may make modifications thereto in compliance with all codes, Laws and with Landlord’s reasonable consent to include, but not be limited to, (a) creating parking spaces as required by Tenant by either
restriping the existing paved areas and/or to create additional paved areas (including the removal of the odd slabbed areas adjacent to the paved parking areas), (b) creating outdoor seating areas for Tenant’s employees, (c) removal of any
existing fencing that separates the front parking from the parking areas on the back side of the building, and (d) removal of trees/shrubs as may be required pursuant to Tenant’s installation. 

7. Completion and Rent Commencement Date. Tenant will diligently pursue construction of the Improvements. The Improvements will be
deemed substantially completed when they are ready for Tenant’s use and occupancy according to the Lease. 
 8. Procedures for
Disbursement of the Construction Allowance. 
 The Landlord shall disburse the Construction Allowance, on the schedule set forth below,
provided the following conditions, if applicable, have been met: (a) there shall be no uncured Tenant Event of Default; (b) all insurance coverage required to be maintained by the Tenant under the Lease shall be in full force and effect
(even if the failure to maintain insurance does not yet qualify as an Event of Default); (c) all permits and other government consents have been obtained and remain effective; (d) with respect to any previous disbursements made, the Landlord has
received copies of notarized partial lien waiver forms executed by the contractors and each appropriate subcontractors, supplier and materialman, specifying in each such partial lien waiver the amount paid in consideration of such partial release;
(e) copies of contracts, invoices or other reasonably acceptable documentation shall be submitted by Tenant to Landlord to substantiate Tenant’s request for payment for the cost of the Improvements, including “soft costs.” 

The following conditions shall be satisfied prior to the final disbursement of the Retainage: (a) All the conditions listed in the first
paragraph of this Section 8 shall continue to be met; (b) Landlord shall have received a certificate from Tenant to the effect, inter alia, that the Improvements have been substantially completed in accordance with the Expansion Plan and
all applicable building, fire, safety and similar codes and Laws; (c) Landlord has received final lien releases and waivers from the contractor and all subcontractors; and (d) Landlord has received two (2) sets of detailed as-built plans and specifications for the Improvements. The as-built plans must include plans and specifications for architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing and
electrical. 
 Disbursement of the Construction Allowance will be made in accordance with the following schedule: 

 

			
	 Amount
	 	 Time of Disbursement

	$1,545,000.00	 	Not later than 10 days after the Effective Date.
	$1,545,000.00	 	Not later than 10 days after Landlord’s receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence that Tenant has paid 25% of the cost of the Improvements and all other conditions precedent in this Work Letter are satisfied including
notarized lien releases for all work completed to date.
	$1,545,000.00	 	Not later than 10 days after Landlord’s receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence that Tenant has paid 50% of the cost of the Improvements and all other conditions precedent in this Work Letter are satisfied including
signed lien releases for all work completed to date.
	$515,000.00
 (Retainage)
	 	Not later than 10 days after Tenant provides Landlord with a certification that all Improvements are substantially complete and all other conditions precedent in this Work Letter are satisfied, including signed lien releases for
all work.


  
 39 












 The Construction Allowance is based upon Landlord’s initial review of Tenant’s
July 2, 2019 summary of the Tenant’s expansion project, its schematic design narrative and its general estimate that Tenant’s build-out work would provide for approximately $3,000,000 for site
work, utilities and building envelope and infrastructure and approximately $2,000,000 for general tenant fit-out construction (which may include IT/AV/Security infrastructure), plus an additional $150,000 to
account for work on the Outside Areas. The Landlord confirms that the July 2, 2019 summary of the Tenant’s expansion project has been incorporated into, and made part of the now-approved Expansion
Plan. 
 9. Risk of Loss. Except as may result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents,
Tenant assumes all risk of loss and all liability for all Claims, Damages and Costs arising from or relating to Tenant’s entry into and work in the Expansion Premises during the construction of the Improvements and will indemnify Landlord in
accordance with Section 5.5, Article 9 and Section 11.8 of the Lease. Tenant shall maintain the insurance described in Section 6(a) of this Exhibit B.
