LLC, an Ohio Limited Liability Company (“Lessor”) and ARC METAL STAMPING, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (“Lessee”).


 


In consideration of the
mutual covenants contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties to this Agreement (the “Parties”)
hereto agree as follows:


 


1.         PREMISES.
Lessor is the owner of the property located at 447 East Walnut Street, Wauseon, Ohio 43567 (the “Premises”)
described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof. Lessor hereby leases to Lessee the Premises.


 


2.         DELIVERY.
Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee on the date hereof, in its “AS IS” condition.


 


3.         TERM; RENTAL.



 


a.         This Agreement shall
be effective as of the date of execution by both Parties and the initial term shall end ten (10) years from the date of this Agreement.
Rental for the initial term shall be at a base annual rental (“Base Rent”) of $48,000.00. All Base Rent and
other amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid in equal monthly installments on the first day of the month, in advance, to
Lessor at the address set forth in Paragraph 22 below, or to such other person, firm or place as Lessor may, from time to time,
designate in writing at least thirty (30) days in advance of any rental payment date in accordance with Paragraph 22 herein. Upon
agreement of the Parties, Lessee may pay Base Rent by electronic funds transfer and in such event, Lessor agrees to provide to
Lessee bank routing information for such purpose upon request of Lessee. The initial term and all extensions, if any, shall be
collectively referred to herein as the “Term.”


 


4.         TAXES. Lessor
shall pay all real estate taxes and assessments relating to the Premises; provided, however, the Base Rent shall be increased on
a dollar for dollar basis to reflect any increase in real estate taxes and assessments over the current tax year’s amount
(being tax year 2013).


 


5.         UTILITIES.Lessee
agrees to pay, before delinquent, all charges for public utility services which accrue with respect to the Premises during the
Term. Lessor shall not be liable for any failure of any of the public utilities to furnish any such services nor shall any failure
for any length of time of any one or more of the utility companies to furnish any such services make this Lease void or voidable
or constitute a ground upon which Lessee may terminate or otherwise abrogate this Lease or any of Lessee’s obligations hereunder,
unless such failure is due to any intentional act of Lessor.


 






    	 



    	 



    

 


6.         INSURANCE.


 


a.         Lessee, at its sole
cost and expense, shall at all times during the Term carry and maintain in full force and effect, for the mutual benefit of Lessor
and Lessee, general public liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage, occurring in, on or
about the Premises or in, on, or about the streets, sidewalks or premises adjacent to the Premises, with the following minimum
limits: (i) Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) on account of bodily injuries to, or death of, one person; (ii) Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000.00) on account of injuries or death resulting from one accident or disaster; and (iii) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00) on account of damages to property. The commercial general liability insurance policy shall include coverages for
premises-operations, independent contractors and broad contractual liability coverage in support of any indemnity provisions of
this Lease.


 


b.         Lessee, at its sole
cost and expense, shall, during the Term, keep the Premises insured against loss or damage by fire and all risks comprehended by
standard extended coverage endorsements in the amount of the replacement value.


 


c.         All insurance provided
for in this Lease shall be obtained from an insurance company or companies authorized to do business in the State of Ohio. Lessor
and any mortgagee of Lessor shall be named as an additional insured in such insurance policies as their respective interests appear.
Originals of the policies of such insurance or certificates thereof shall be delivered to Lessor on the execution of this Lease
and originals or renewals thereof or certificates thereof shall be delivered not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration
dates of the respective policies. In case Lessee shall at any time fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by subparagraphs
(a) and (b) hereof, then Lessor may at its option procure or renew such insurance and any amounts paid therefor shall be immediately
due and payable, upon demand.


 


7.         USE; GOVERNMENT
APPROVALS.


 


a.         Lessee shall use
the Premises for the purpose of operating a manufacturing facility and uses incidental thereto. Lessee further covenants and agrees
that Lessee will not use, or permit any person to use the Premises for any purpose which indirectly or directly is forbidden by
law, ordinance, or governmental regulation or order, or which may be dangerous to life, limb or property, or which may invalidate
any policy of insurance carried on the Premises. Lessee covenants that Lessee shall procure and maintain all necessary licenses
and permits required in connection with the operation of Lessee’s business on the Premises.


 


b.         It is understood
and agreed that Lessee’s ability to use the Premises is contingent upon its obtaining after the execution date of this Agreement
all of the certificates, permits and other approvals (collectively the “Government Approvals”) that may be required
by any Federal, State or Local authorities. Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in its effort to obtain such approvals (including
any proceedings in connection therewith) and shall take no action which would adversely affect the status of the Premises with
respect to the proposed use thereof by Lessee. In the event that any of such applications for such Government Approvals should
be finally rejected, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. Notice of Lessee’s exercise of its right to terminate
shall be given to Lessor in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested, and shall be effective upon the mailing of such
notice by Lessee, or upon such later date as designated by Lessee. All rentals paid to said termination date shall be retained
by Lessor. Upon such termination, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect except to the extent of the representations,
warranties and indemnities made by each Party to the other hereunder. Otherwise, the Lessee shall have no further obligations for
the payment of rent to Lessor.

9.          INDEMNIFICATION.
Subject to Paragraph 11 below, each Party shall indemnify and hold the other harmless against any claim of liability or loss from
personal injury or property damage resulting from or arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnifying Party,
its employees, contractors or agents, except to the extent such claims or damages may be due to or caused by the negligence or
willful misconduct of the other Party, or its employees, contractors or agents.


 


10.        WAIVER OF SUBROGATION.The
Parties hereby waive and release any and all rights of action for negligence against the other which may hereafter arise on account
of damage to the Premises resulting from any fire, or other casualty of the kind covered by insurance to the extent of any recovery
under a policy or policies of insurance. These waivers and releases shall apply between the Parties and they shall also apply to
any claims under or through either Parry as a result of any asserted right of subrogation. All such policies of insurance obtained
by either Party concerning the Premises shall waive the insurer’s right of subrogation against the other Party.


 


11.        LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY. Except for indemnifications set forth in this Lease, neither Party shall be liable to the other, or any of their
respective agents, representatives, employees for any lost revenue, lost profits, loss of technology, rights or services, incidental,
punitive, indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of data, or interruption or loss of use of service, even if advised
of the possibility of such damages, whether under theory of contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise.

13.        REMOVAL AT END
OF TERM. Lessee shall, upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, remove its equipment, trade fixtures and all
personal property and restore the Premises to its original condition, reasonable wear and tear and casualty damage excepted. Lessor
agrees and acknowledges that all of the equipment, trade fixtures and personal property of Lessee shall remain the personal property
of Lessee and Lessee shall have the right to remove the same at any time during the Term, whether or not said items are considered
fixtures and attachments to real property under applicable Law. Any claims relating to the condition of the Premises must be presented
by Lessor in writing to Lessee within thirty (30) days after the termination or expiration of this Lease or Lessor shall be deemed
to have irrevocably waived any and all such claims.


 


14.        HOLDOVER.
Lessee has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or termination of the Term,
unless the Parties are negotiating a new lease or lease extension in good faith. In the event that the Parties are not in the process
of negotiating a new lease or lease extension in good faith, Lessee holds over, then the Base Rent then in effect payable from
and after the time of the expiration of the Term shall be increased to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Base Rent applicable

have, against any of the Released Parties, based upon, or arising directly or indirectly out of the use, maintenance, ownership
or operation of the Premises prior to closing.


 


viii.     The provisions
of this Paragraph 15 shall survive closing and delivery of the Deed.

of this Agreement.


 


17.        QUIET ENJOYMENT.

herein, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises.

represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants during the Term that Lessor is seized of good and sufficient title
and interest to the Premises, has full authority to enter into and execute this Agreement without any other party’s approval, and

signatories to sign same. Lessor further represents, covenants and warrants that there are no liens, judgments or impediments of
title on the Premises, or affecting Lessor’s title to the same and that there are no covenants, easements or restrictions or violations
which prevent or impede the use of the Premises by the Lessee as set forth above. Furthermore, the Premises is not designated a

19.        INTEGRATION.
It is agreed and understood that this Agreement contains all agreements, promises and understandings between Lessor and Lessee
and that no verbal or oral agreements, promises or understandings shall be binding upon either Lessor or Lessee in any dispute,
controversy or proceeding at law, and any addition, variation or modification to this Agreement shall be void and ineffective unless
made in writing signed by the Parties. In the event any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such
finding shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement. The failure of either Party
to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or to exercise any of its rights under this
Agreement shall not waive such rights and such Party shall have the right to enforce such rights at any time and take such action
as may be lawful and authorized under this Agreement, in law or in equity.


 


20.        GOVERNING LAW.
This Agreement and the performance thereof shall be governed, interpreted, construed and regulated by the laws of the State of
Ohio.


 


21.        ASSIGNMENT.
This Agreement may be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred by the Lessee without any approval or consent of the Lessor to the
Lessee’s principal, affiliates, subsidiaries of its principal or to any entity which acquires all or substantially all of Lessee’s
assets or to any entity which is the successor to Lessee by reason of a merger, acquisition or other business reorganization. As
to other parties, this Agreement may not be sold, assigned or transferred without the written consent of the Lessor, which such
consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned. No change of stock owner or corporate dissolution of Lessee
shall constitute an assignment hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Lessee shall not be
relieved from any further liability or obligation accruing hereunder due to such assignment.

23.        SUCCESSORS.
This Agreement shall extend to and bind the heirs, personal representative, successors and assigns of the Parties hereto.


 


24.        SUBORDINATION
AND NON-DISTURBANCE. Lessor shall obtain not later than fifteen (15) days following the execution of this Agreement, a Non-Disturbance
Agreement, as defined below, from its existing mortgagee(s), ground Lessor and master Lessor, if any, of the Premises. At Lessor’s
option, this Agreement shall be subordinate to any future master lease, ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other security
interest (a “Mortgage”) by Lessor which from time to time may encumber all or part of the Premises or right-of-way;
provided, however, as a condition precedent to Lessee being required to subordinate its interest in this Agreement
to any future Mortgage covering the Premises, Lessor shall obtain for Lessee’s benefit a non-disturbance and attornment agreement
for Lessee’s benefit in the form reasonably satisfactory to Lessee, and containing the terms described below (the “Non-Disturbance
Agreement”), and shall recognize Lessee’s right to remain in occupancy of and have access to the Premises as long as
Lessee is not in default of this Agreement beyond applicable notice and cure periods. The Non-Disturbance Agreement shall include
the encumbering party’s (“Lender’s”) agreement that, if Lender or its successor-in-interest or any purchaser
of Lender’s or its successor’s interest (a “Purchaser”) acquires an ownership interest in the Premises, Lender
or such successor-in-interest or Purchaser will (1) honor all of the terms of this Agreement and (2) fulfill Lessor’s obligations
under this Agreement. Such Non-Disturbance Agreement must be binding on all of its partnership interest or control and Lender’s
participants in the subject loan (if any) and on all successors and assigns of Lender and/or its participants and on all Purchasers.
In the event Lessor defaults in the payment and/or other performance of any mortgage or other real property interest encumbering
the Premises, Lessee, may, at its sole option and without obligation, cure or correct Lessor’s default and upon doing so, Lessee
shall be subrogated to any and all rights, titles, liens and equities of the holders of such mortgage or other real property interest
and Lessee shall be entitled to deduct and set off against all rents that may otherwise become due under this Agreement the sums
paid by Lessee to cure or correct such defaults.

25.        RECORDING.
Lessor agrees to execute a Memorandum of this Agreement, in form acceptable to the Parties, which Lessee may record with the appropriate
recording officer. The date set forth in the Memorandum of Lease is for recording purposes only and bears no reference to commencement
of either the Term or rent payments.


 


26.        DEFAULT.



 


a.         In the event there
is a breach by Lessee with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, including the payment
of Base Rent (or any other amounts due pursuant to this Lease), Lessor shall give Lessee written notice of such breach. After receipt
of such written notice, Lessee shall have five (5) days in which to cure any monetary breach and thirty (30) days in which to cure
any non-monetary breach, provided Lessee shall have such extended period as maybe required beyond the thirty (30) days if the nature
of the cure is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and Lessee commences the cure within the thirty (30)
day period and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. Lessor may not maintain any action or effect
any remedies for default against Lessee unless and until Lessee has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided
in this Paragraph.


 


b.         In the event there
is a breach by Lessor with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement or its obligations under it, Lessee shall give Lessor
written notice of such breach. After receipt of such written notice, Lessor shall have thirty (30) days in which to cure any such
breach, provided Lessor shall have such extended period as may be required beyond the thirty (30) days if the nature of the cure
is such that it reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days and Lessor commences the cure within the thirty (30) day period
and thereafter continuously and diligently pursues the cure to completion. Lessee may not maintain any action or effect any remedies
for default against Lessor unless and until Lessor has failed to cure the breach within the time periods provided in this Paragraph.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary it shall be a default under this Agreement if Lessor fails, within five (5) days
after receipt of written notice of such breach, to perform an obligation required to be performed by Lessor if the failure to perform
such an obligation interferes with Lessee’s ability to conduct its business on the Premises; provided, however, that if the nature
of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than five (5) days after such notice is reasonably required for its performance, then
it shall note a default under this Agreement if performance is commenced within such five (5) day period and thereafter diligently
pursued to completion.


 


27.        REMEDIES.
Upon a default beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, the party not in default may at its option (but without obligation
to do so), perform the defaulting party’s duty or obligation on the defaulting party’s behalf, including but not limited
to obtaining insurance policies required hereunder. The costs and expenses of any such performance by the party not in default
shall be due and payable by by the defaulting party upon invoice therefor along with the additional fees as may be otherwise provided
in this Lease. In the event of a default beyond all applicable notice and cure periods, by either party with respect to a material
provision of this Agreement, without limiting the rights of the party not in default in the exercise of any right or remedy which
the party not in default may have by reason of such default, party not in default may terminate this Agreement and/or pursue any
remedy now or hereafter available under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of Ohio along with recovery of reasonable attorney’s
fees and court costs; provided, however, the party not in default shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in connection
with an uncured default by Lessee.

entities or other third parties regarding releases or spills, or potential releases or spills, of Hazardous Substances occurring
on the Premises prior to the commencement of the Lease unless Lessee believes it is compelled to do so under Environmental Law

respond to Lessee’s disclosure claim and, as necessary and appropriate, to seek a protective order.


 


Lessee shall be solely responsible for investigating,
remediating, and otherwise responding to all other Hazardous Substances present and existing in, on, about, or from the Premises

a reasonable time, to conduct at any time during the Term of this Lease a supplemental Environmental Assessment. If the results
of such supplemental Environmental Assessment identify a release of Hazardous Substances which is a violation of Environmental
Laws and is the responsibility of Lessee, then Lessee shall promptly undertake all actions necessary to address the release of
Hazardous Substances and remedy the violation of Environmental Laws. If the results of such supplemental Environmental Assessment
identify a release of Hazardous Substances which is a violation of Environmental Laws and is the responsibility of Lessor, then
Lessor shall promptly undertake all actions necessary to address the release of Hazardous Substances and remedy the violation of
Environmental Laws.

of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the same force and effect as though the date set forth in such notice
were the date originally set as the expiration date of this Agreement and the Parties shall make an appropriate adjustment, as
of such termination date, with respect to payments due to the other under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rent

make a claim in any condemnation proceeding involving the Premises for losses related to the equipment, conduits, fixtures, its
relocation costs and its damages and losses. Any such notice of termination shall cause this Agreement to expire with the same

this Agreement. If Lessee does not terminate this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing, this Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the
rentable area of the Premises taken bears to the total area of the Premises. In the event that this Agreement is not terminated

with work of any character performed or claimed to have been performed on, or pertaining to, the Premises, whether such work was
performed or materials furnished prior or subsequent to the date of this Lease. Nor shall the interest or estate of Lessor in the
Premises be in any way subjected to any claim by way of lien or encumbrance, whether by operation of law or by virtue of any express
or implied contract by Lessee. Any claim to or lien upon the Premises arising from any acts or omissions of Lessee shall in all
respects be subject and subordinate to the paramount title and rights of Lessor in and to the Premises. Lessee shall have the right
to contest the validity of any such lien or claimed lien, if Lessee shall give to Lessor such reasonable security as may be requested
by Lessor to insure payment thereof and to prevent any sale, foreclosure or forfeiture of the Premises by reason of nonpayment.

charges and shall, at Lessee’s own cost and expense, have the lien released and any judgment satisfied.
