 Section 1.02. (a) Subject
to the terms of this Section 1.02, each of the parties are reserved a one-time right to retain, at its sole cost and expense, a professional surveyor to measure the exact and actual square footage of rental space in the Building (the Survey
Right”). A party may exercise the Survey Right by advising the other in writing of its intention to retain a professional surveyor for such purpose (the “Survey Notice”), which Survey Notice shall contain the name and address of the
surveyor (the “Moving Surveyor”) and must be delivered to the other party not later than June 1, 2015, Time Being of the Essence. The failure of a party to deliver the Survey Notice prior to June 1, 2015 shall be deemed an
irrevocable waiver of its Survey Right. If a party receives a timely delivered Survey Notice, such party may, but is not obligated to, retain at its own cost and expense, a professional surveyor to measure the exact and actual square footage of
rental space in the Building (the “Responding Survey Right”); provided however, such party must deliver notice of such intention within ten (10) days of receipt of the Survey Notice (the “Responding Notice”), Time Being of
the Essence, and contain the name and address of the surveyor (the “Responding Surveyor”). The failure of a party to timely submit a Responding Notice shall be deemed an irrevocable waiver of both its Responding Survey Right and any
unexpired Survey Right. 
 (b) The survey(s) to be conducted pursuant to a timely exercised Survey Right or Responding Survey Right, shall
be completed with fifteen (15) days of issuance of the Survey Notice or Responding Survey Notice, as applicable and the survey shall be delivered to the other party within twenty (20) days of issuance of the Survey Notice or Responding
Survey Notice, as applicable, Time Being of the Essence. The failure of a party to timely submit a survey within the time provided hereunder shall be deemed an irrevocable waiver of its applicable Survey Right or Responding Survey Right, provided
that a party was not prevented from exercising its Survey Right in a timely fashion by the other party. 
 (c) In the event that the
discrepancy between the square footage of rental space in the Building measured by the Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor is less than 1000 square feet, the discrepancy 







 
shall be split in half and the measurement as is adjusted be deemed the actual and exact square footage of rental space in the Building. 

(d) In the event that there is a material discrepancy (more than 1000 square feet) between the square footage or rental space in the Building
measured by the Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor, the following procedure shall follow: (i) First, the Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor shall meet and attempt to reconcile the difference and agree on the square footage or
rental space in the Building, such agreement being binding on the parties. The Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor shall meet and complete this attempt to reconcile such difference not later than August 1, 2015; and (ii) In the
event that the Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor cannot reconcile the difference in the respective measurements of the square feet of rental space in the Building by August 1, 2015, the Moving Surveyor and the Responding Surveyor
shall select a third surveyor who shall conduct a new measurement and such measurement shall be binding on the parties. 
 (e) In the event
that reconciliation of any discrepancy in the measurement of the square feet of rental space in the Building under (d) above is not completed as of September 1, 2015, the Monthly Basic Rent due commencing September 1, 2015 shall be
paid in accordance with Section 3.01 until such time as the discrepancy is reconciled and the Annual Basic Rent is recalculated using the revised measurement of square feet of rental space in the Building. In the event that the recalculation of
the Rent results in an excess payment or a deficient payment for any monthly rent paid in accordance with the Section 3.01 Rent schedule, such excess or deficiency, as applicable, shall be satisfied by the responsible party within ten
(10) days of the Rent recalculation. 
 (f) In the event that no Survey Right is timely exercised the square footage of rental space in
the Building shall be deemed to be 268,000. 
 (g) In the event one party has exercised its Survey Right and the other party has failed to
exercise its responding Survey Right, or in the event on party has failed to timely delivery its survey as set forth in subsection (b) above, then the square footage of rental space in the Building shall be deemed to be either the number set
forth in (f) above, or the number set forth in the completed Survey.

area. It is understood and agreed that Landlord does not assume any responsibility for any damage or loss to any automobiles or trailers parked on the Building 11 Parking and Storage Area or to any personal property located therein, or for any
injury sustained by any person in or about the Building 11 Parking and Storage Area. If Tenant or Tenant’s employees or visitors park illegally or in areas designated for use by others, or in driveways, fire lanes or areas not striped for
general parking or otherwise violate any parking rules and regulations that may be reasonably promulgated by Landlord, then Landlord may, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, tow such vehicles away from the Building 11 Parking and Storage Area
and/or attach violation notices to such vehicles. Any amount due from Tenant pursuant to this Article will be deemed Additional Rent and Tenant shall pay such amounts to Landlord upon demand. If Landlord tows any vehicles pursuant to this
Section 5.03, Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against all liabilities, losses, claims, demands, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising, or alleged to arise, from or in connection with
such 







 
towing, unless caused by or due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, employees and contractors. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to impose any obligation on
Landlord to police the Building 11 Parking and Storage Area. 
 ARTICLE VI

and to any mortgage or deed of trust to which this Lease shall be subordinate.

Section 7.01. Taxes 

(a) Commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing through the of expiration date of the Term and any renewal periods of the Lease Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, all Real Estate Taxes imposed on the Demised Premises. Landlord shall pay the Real Estate Taxes due directly to the taxing authority and thereafter invoice the Tenant for the amount of the Real Estate Taxes
paid, payment of which shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s invoice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in lieu thereof, if requested by Landlord, in its sole discretion,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord in monthly installments, an amount equal to 1/12th of the estimated Real Estate Tax for the applicable period, as Additional Rent, same being due with the Monthly
Basic Rent so that Landlord shall have sufficient funds to pay Real Estate Taxes for the applicable period when due without advancing same on behalf of Tenant. The amount of monthly Real Estate Taxes paid by Tenant shall be reasonably estimated
by Landlord based upon the Real Estate Taxes due for the prior calendar year. Landlord may make adjustments in its estimates as necessary based on billings from the taxing authority and any adjustments necessary shall be paid or credited by
Tenant within twenty (20) days of Landlord’s statement. Within approximately one hundred twenty (120) days of receipt of the current tax bill for each calendar year, Landlord shall provide a statement to Tenant setting forth
actual Real Estate Taxes imposed for the prior calendar year, a copy of the applicable tax bills, and any adjustments necessary as a result of overpayment or underpayment by Tenant shall be credited against or paid, respectively, in the next monthly
installment of Taxes due or alternatively, paid to the owing party within twenty (20) days after Landlord’s statement if such statement occurs after the expiration of the Lease Term. Provided that the Term commenced on any day other than
the first day of the calendar year, Landlord shall determine Tenant’s Prorated Share of Taxes during the first and last Lease Years by calculating the entire Taxes due for the calendar year and prorating such amount by the number of days during
Tenant’s Term in such year. Provided that Tenant is not in default of its payment obligations under this Section 7.01 that cause the imposition of any penalties or interest, Tenant shall not be responsible for any penalties or
interest on Real Estate Taxes charged against the Land including the Building, by any other taxing authority as a result of Landlord’s untimely payment of Real Estate Taxes. 

(b) Tenant shall not be required to pay any estate, inheritance, conveyance, devolution, succession, transfer, legacy or gift tax or fee
charged against Landlord or the estate or interest of Landlord in the Demised Building or upon the right of any person to succeed to the same or any part thereof by inheritance, succession, transfer or gift, nor any capital stock tax or corporate
franchise tax incurred by Landlord, nor any income tax upon or against the income of Landlord (including any rental income derived by Landlord from the Demised Building but this exclusion shall not be applicable to a rental tax which shall be
considered a Real Estate Tax). 







 
Tenant shall promptly pay to the taxing authority any other tax or fee related to its occupancy including personal property taxes, if such taxes are imposed in the jurisdiction of the Premises.

 (c) Tenant shall pay its share of all assessments that may be imposed upon the Real Property during the Term by reason of any specific
public improvement (including but not limited to assessments for street openings, grading, paving and sewer installations and improvements). Any such benefit, assessment or installment thereof relating to a fiscal period in which the Term of this
Lease begins or ends shall be apportioned to limit Tenant’s share to the remaining period of this Lease. 
 (d) Tenant at its sole cost
and expense reserves the right to contest or appeal any Real Estate Taxes. If Tenant contests or appeals any Real Estate Taxes, Landlord, at no cost to Landlord, shall assist Tenant in its contest or appeal, including signing any documents
reasonably necessary to permit Tenant to file and pursue such contest or appeal. Any refund resulting from such contest or review shall be allocated as follows: Tenant shall receive that portion which represents Tenant’s payment of any amount
over the Real Estate Taxes for the period covered by the refund and Landlord shall receive the balance. 
 (e) As used in this Lease, Real
Estate Taxes shall mean the property taxes and assessments , as apportioned above, if applicable, imposed upon the Real Property including the Building, as such payable by Landlord, including but not limited to, real estate, city, county, village,
school and transit taxes, or taxes, assessments or charges levied, including charges on rental income payable in lieu of real estate taxes, imposed or assessed against the Real Property including the Building, by any other taxing authority, whether
general or specific, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen. If due to a future change in the method of taxation, income or profit tax or other tax shall be levied against Landlord in substitution for, or in lieu of, any tax which would
otherwise constitute a Real Estate Tax, such franchise, income or profit tax or other tax shall be deemed to be a Real Estate Tax for the purposes hereof. 

Section 7.02. Utilities. 

(a) Utilities From and after the Commencement Date. From and after the Commencement Date and continuing through the expiration date of
the Term and any renewal period under the Lease, Tenant shall pay when due the costs for all utility usage at the Demised Premises, including deposits, as recorded on separate meters, including without limitation water, gas, electricity, phone,
internet, sewer charges and fuel consumed for heating. Tenant shall pay directly to the public utility companies providing such utility services, or reimburse Landlord as additional rent if Landlord has previously paid therefor, the cost of any such
utility services. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims arising from the installation and maintenance of such utility services and from all costs and charges for utilities consumed on or by the
Demised Premises, unless such claims are as a result of Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall have no obligation to arrange for, hook up, install or pay for any utilities, including without limitation water, gas,
electricity, phone, internet, sewer charges and fuel consumed for heating for Tenant’s utilization. 
 (b) Water and Sewer. From
and after the Commencement Date and continuing through the expiration date of the Term and any renewal period under the Lease, Tenant shall pay directly to the provider (City of Wilmington) before any interest or penalties accrue thereon, all water

 ARTICLE VIII 

Insurance 

Section 8.01. (i) From and after the Commencement Date and continuing through the expiration date of the Term and any renewal
period under the Lease, Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense pursuant to Article 3, shall provide and keep in force Special Form property insurance covering the Building and all Landlord owned equipment (expressly excluding improvements,
alterations or additions made by or on behalf of Tenant and Tenant’s personal property) against loss or damage resulting from fire, theft, vandalism, malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage and such additional perils as are now, or hereafter may
be, included in a standard extended coverage endorsement from time to time in general use in the State of Ohio, with endorsement for insurance covering Business Income and Extra Expense and providing for loss of Rent in the amount equal to
twenty-four (24) months of rent that may result from any loss of rent resulting from Tenant’s loss of use of any part of the Demised Building and other insurable casualties, Law and Ordinance coverage and Terrorism coverage. Such insurance
shall be on a 100% replacement cost basis, without co-insurance, and deductibles not to exceed $10,000.00 (excluding footings and foundations at Landlord’s option). Tenant shall be responsible for any deductible payments as “Additional
Rent”. Within approximately one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of any bill from the insurance provider (or agent) for each policy year during the Term, Landlord shall provide a statement to Tenant setting forth the amount of
insurance premiums paid by Landlord with respect to the subject policy year and a copy of the applicable bill, and such amount shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s statement
which amount shall constitute Additional Rent. With respect to any policy year partially occurring during the Term of this Lease, the amount of insurance premiums pertaining to such policy year shall be pro-rated (based on a 365-day year) and Tenant
shall only be responsible for the portion of the policy year falling within the Term hereof. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord’s coverage under this Section 8.01 is part of comprehensive insurance coverage that includes other properties
owned by affiliates of Landlord; provided, however, the cost and expense paid by Tenant hereunder shall be limited to the premium charges applicable to the Demised Building only. 

(ii) Tenant shall also furnish, or reimburse Landlord for, insurance for such other hazards, including if applicable Flood insurance, and in
such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require and as at the time are commonly insured against with respect to buildings similar in character, general location and use and occupancy to the Demised Building in relative amounts normally carried with
respect thereto. 
 Section 8.02. From and after the Commencement Date and continuing through the expiration date of the Term
and any renewal period under the Lease, Tenant, at its cost, shall provide and keep in force: 
 (A) Special Form property insurance
covering its personal property in the Building as well as all improvements, alterations or additions made by or on behalf of Tenant against loss or damage resulting from fire and other insurable casualties. Such insurance shall be on a 100%
replacement cost basis, subject to any commercially reasonable deductible Tenant may elect in its sole discretion. 
 (B) Commercial
general liability policy in standard form (containing the so-called “occurrence clause”) against claims for personal injury and property damage occurring on, in or about the Demised Building in the
combined single limit amount of two million and 00/100 ($2,000,000.00) Dollars, with a deductible not greater than $10,000 per occurrence, and shall include an endorsement naming Landlord, its mortgagee and such other person(s) or entity(ies) as
Landlord reasonably may require with respect to liability for ownership, operation, maintenance, use and control as “additional insured.” Additionally, Tenant shall maintain an umbrella policy including the Demised Building as a covered
property for claims for personal injury and property damage occurring on, in or about the Demised Building with limits not less than five million and 00/100 ($5,000,000.00) Dollars and shall include an endorsement naming Landlord, its mortgagee and
such other person(s) or entity(ies) as Landlord reasonably may require with respect to liability for ownership, operation, maintenance, use and control as “additional insured.” The coverage provided under this Section shall include
Contractual Liability coverage for the indemnity obligations of Tenant under this Lease and Worker’s Compensation coverage. 
 (C) If,
by reason of changed economic or other conditions, the insurance amounts referred to in this Section 8.02 become inadequate as reasonably determined by Landlord, Tenant agrees to increase the amounts of such insurance promptly upon
Landlord’s request. 







 Section 8.03. The policies of insurance required pursuant to Sections 8.01 and 8.02
above shall be from a company rated in the A.M. Best Key Rating Guide with a policyholder’s service rating not less than A- and financial size not less than X. The company shall be licensed by the State of Ohio and a certificate(s) (Accord Form
27 and 28 as applicable or its equivalent) evidencing the existence of such policy shall be delivered to the other party, not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Commencement Date. A true copy of the Commercial General liability policy
(with the Declaration Sheet) procured by the Tenant under 8.02(b) shall be delivered to the Landlord within thirty (30) days of the Commencement Date. The company shall agree to provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice of
cancellation, non-renewal, material change, or reduction in coverage to the other party (in the case of Landlord, also to any mortgagee for which Tenant has been notified). At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration or termination date
of any policy, each party shall deliver a renewal replacement policy, or certificate(s) evidencing the existence thereof, to the other party. All of the aforesaid policies shall provide for the waiver of subrogation rights against the other party.

 Section 8.04. (a) All losses paid under the policy or policies carried pursuant to Section 8.01 shall be payable to
Landlord, and the proceeds thereof shall be payable to Landlord. All losses paid under the policy or policies carried pursuant to Section 8.02(a) shall be payable to Tenant, and the proceeds thereof shall be payable to Tenant. 

(b) Landlord and Tenant shall each secure an appropriate clause, or an endorsement upon any policy of insurance in force, covering the
Demised Building or any personal property or leasehold improvements located therein or thereon, including, without limitation, casualty and liability policies in force, pursuant to which the respective insurance companies waive subrogation against
the other party in connection with loss or damage covered by such policies (except for willful acts). The waiver of subrogation hereinbefore referred to shall extend to the agents of each party and also extends to all other persons and entities
occupying or using the Demised Building in accordance with the terms of this Lease. In the event that either Landlord or Tenant shall be unable at any time to obtain the waiver of subrogation referred to above in any of its insurance policies,
Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the other. If such insurance policies are obtainable only by the payment of an additional premium charge, the same shall be obtained and such additional premium paid for by the other
party, provided such premium charge is reasonable to both Landlord and Tenant. If the parties do not agree such premium charge is reasonable, a second insurance quote shall be promptly obtained. 

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.04(b) above, and insofar as may be permitted by the terms of the insurance policies carried
by it, and notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, each party hereby releases the other and its partners, agents and employees with respect to any claim (including a claim for negligence, but not for willful acts) which it might
otherwise have against the other party for loss, damages or destruction with respect to its property by fire or other casualty (including Rent loss insurance) occurring during the Term covered by such insurance policies in an amount equal to the
greater of (i) the extent of the limits of coverage required to be carried by such party hereunder (whether or not such party actually carries such required limits of coverage), or (ii) such higher amount as otherwise carried by such
party. 
 Section 8.05. From and after the Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss suffered by
Tenant under any circumstances including without limitation: (i) loss of or injury to Tenant or to Tenant’s property or that for which Tenant is legally liable from any cause whatsoever (unless caused by and only to the extent of the
negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, and then subject to the provisions of Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above), including but not limited to theft or burglary or arising from defects, errors or
omissions in the construction or design of the Demised Building and/or the Building including the structural and nonstructural portions thereof; or (ii) any interruption to Tenant’s business, however occurring, unless and only to the
extent such interruption is directly caused by Landlord’s (or its agent’s, employee’s or contractor’s) negligence or willful misconduct, and then subject to the provisions set forth in Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above; or
(iii) which results from or is incidental to the furnishing of or failure to furnish or the interruption in connection with the furnishing of any service which Landlord is obligated, if any, to furnish pursuant to this Lease (unless caused by
and only to the extent of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, and then subject to the provisions of Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above); or (iv) results from any inspection, repair,
alteration or the failure thereof undertaken 







 
or failed to be undertaken by Landlord (unless caused by and only to the extent of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors, and then subject to
the provisions of Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above). The aforesaid exculpatory Section is to induce Landlord, in its judgment, to avoid or minimize covering risks which are better quantified and covered by Tenant either through insurance (or self-insurance or combinations thereof if specifically permitted pursuant to this Lease) thereby avoiding the need to increase the rent charged Tenant to compensate Landlord for the additional costs in obtaining
said coverage or reserving against such losses. The provisions of this Section 8.05 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. 

Section 8.06. Subject to Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and save Landlord harmless against and
from all liabilities, claims, suits, fines, penalties, damages, losses, fees, costs and reasonable and actual expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), unless and only to the extent arising out of Landlord’s (or its agent’s,
employee’s or contractor’s) negligence or willful misconduct, which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of and only to the extent of: 

(A) Any work or thing done in, on or about the Demised Building or any part thereof by or on behalf of Tenant; or occasioned by the use and
occupancy of the Demised Building by Tenant; 
 (B) Any use, occupation, condition, operation of the Demised Building or any part thereof
or any occurrence on any of the same on the part of Tenant during the Term from and after the Commencement Date; 
 (C) Any negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of Tenant or any subtenant or any employees, licensees or invitees during the Term hereof; and 
 (D) Any
failure on the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease. 

The provisions of this Section 8.06 shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease. 

Section 8.07. Subject to the provisions of Sections 8.04(b) and 8.04(c) above, Landlord shall indemnify, defend and save Tenant
harmless against and from all liabilities, claims, suits, fines, penalties, damages, losses, fees, reasonable and actual expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Tenant by reason
of and only to the extent of: (i) Landlord’s (or its agent’s, employee’s or contractor’s) negligence or willful misconduct during the Term, or (ii) any failure on the part of Landlord to perform or comply with any of
the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease. The provisions of this Section 8.07 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

this Lease, (including Landlord’s responsibility to repair defects in workmanship and materials to the Landlord Improvements or the building systems during the Warranty Period under Section 4.04), during the Term of the Lease and
continuing through the expiration date of the Term and any renewal period under the Lease, Tenant at its sole cost and expense shall promptly make all repairs, replacements and perform all maintenance for the Land and Building, including but not
limited to all necessary repairs, replacements and maintenance to (i) the interior and exterior walls of the Building, (ii) the plumbing, electrical, heating, mechanical and fire suppression (including backflow valve preventer) systems

the roof damaged directly or indirectly by vents, conduit and other protrusions and penetrations from Tenant’s equipment and omissions from the facility or the failure of Tenant to perform

Semiannual maintenance. Should Tenant fail to promptly repair the Demised Building as required hereby, Landlord, after thirty (30) days written notice to Tenant (or without notice in the case of an emergency), may make the repair and charge the
reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket cost thereof as Additional Rent, which Tenant shall pay in full. When used in this Article, the term “repairs” shall include all necessary replacements and renewals. All repairs made by Tenant shall be
equal in quality and class to the work as of the Commencement Date. Provided that this Lease is not terminated as a result of a breach by the Tenant, with respect to replacements to the building systems of the Demised Building that will continue to
benefit Landlord following termination of the Lease, Landlord agrees to reimburse Tenant an amount equal to the unamortized cost of such replacements (based on a 10-year straight line amortization) as of the expiration of the Term of the Lease. Any
such payment shall be due and payable within sixty (60) days following the expiration of the term of the Lease. 
 (b) Tenant shall
replace, at Tenant’s expense, all glass in and on the Demised Building which may become broken after the Commencement Date of the Term or such earlier date on which Tenant shall have occupied the Demised Premises. 

(c) Should Tenant fail to keep the Demised Building in good condition and repair, Landlord, after thirty (30) days written notice to
Tenant (or without notice in the case of an emergency), may, without being obliged, make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, immediately upon demand, the reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket cost therefor, which shall constitute Additional
Rent due hereunder and shall be subject to all remedies by law or otherwise for the collection of Basic Rent and Additional Rent; however, nothing herein shall be construed to impose a duty on Landlord to mitigate its damages by undertaking any
repair which is Tenant’s obligation. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord shall, without
reimbursement by Tenant (a) keep in good repair and condition (i) the structural components of the Building, including repairs and replacements to the foundation and floor slab, and (ii) the roof; provided however, if the repairs or
replacements are necessitated by the actions or omissions of Tenant, or any of its agents, representatives, contractors or employees, Sections 9.01 (a) and (c) shall be applicable. Should Landlord fail to keep the portions of the Building
for which Landlord is responsible, in good condition and repair, Tenant, after thirty (30) days written notice to Landlord (or without notice in the case of an emergency), may, without being obliged, make the repairs, and Landlord shall pay to
Tenant, immediately upon demand, the reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket cost therefor, which payment obligation shall be subject to all remedies by law or otherwise for the collection of such obligation. Tenant shall not be entitled to set off or
deduct such cost from Monthly Basic Rent unless permitted to do so pursuant to Court Order.

budget for the Structural Alteration or Non–Structural Alterations Requiring Approval, and (iv) a detailed list of vendors and suppliers providing material and labor for the Structural Alteration or Non–Structural Alterations

to 







 
Landlord such evidence of Tenant’s financial ability to assure completion thereof and payment therefor, as Landlord reasonably may require, including the furnishing of adequate security.

 (b) All erections, alterations, additions and improvements, whether Structural Alterations or Non Structural Alterations Requiring
Approval, or non-structural alterations have a cost less than $50,000, performed by Tenant, irrespective of cost, shall be performed in compliance with all applicable governmental and fire underwriting requirements and shall be subject to
Landlord’s inspection after completion to determine whether it complies with the requirements of this Lease. The approval or consent of Landlord shall not relieve Tenant of its obligation that all such repairs, alterations, improvements,
additions and/or other work be constructed and performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all applicable governmental and fire underwriting requirements, nor constitute a waiver of any rights of Landlord if Tenant fails to
perform its obligations. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall procure all necessary governmental approvals, permits or certificates in connection with the Alteration work performed by Tenant in, on or at the Building and shall deliver the
original of all such approvals, permits or certificates to Landlord to be retained by Landlord. Upon the Tenant’s completion of the Structural Alterations or Non Structural Alterations Requiring Approval, or non-structural alterations have a

improvements or other work which Tenant either shall be required to perform or which Tenant shall elect to perform), Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, at all times, shall obtain and maintain or cause to be obtained and maintained, workmen’s
compensation insurance and any other insurance which then shall be required by law, together with commercial general liability insurance as set forth in Article 8, to insure against any additional hazards created in connection with the performance
of any of the aforesaid work. Prior to the commencement of any such work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all policies of insurance required pursuant to this subparagraph (d) and in accordance with the provisions of Article 8.

 (d) All erections, alterations, additions and improvements, whether Structural Alterations or Non Structural Alterations, or
non-structural alterations have a cost less than $50,000 or temporary or permanent in character, which may be made upon or to the Demised Building either by Landlord or Tenant, except furniture or trade fixtures installed at the expense of Tenant,
shall be the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Demised Building as a part thereof at the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, without compensation to the Tenant; or, in the alternative and at the
request of Landlord and with contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Tenant at its sole cost and expense, shall remove prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease all or so much of the property therefrom as requested by
Landlord or such property shall be conclusively deemed abandoned and may be removed by Landlord, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of such removal.

obtaining the consent of such mortgagee and/or ground lessor and the approval of its architect, if required.

as of the Commencement Date and deliver the Building in broom clean condition free of Tenant’s personalty, debris or 







 
trash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to remove any improvements made to the Demised Building by the Landlord under Section 4.01 or Tenant Work installed by

adequate to restore the Demised Premises, enter and commence and diligently repair the same and Rent shall abate during any period during which Tenant cannot use

part of Tenant. 
 ARTICLE XII 

Condemnation 

Section 12.01. If, during the Term, if so much of the Demised Building shall be taken under any power of eminent domain or
condemnation as to have a material adverse effect on the ability of Tenant to operate its business, then, at the option of Tenant, to be exercised in writing within fifteen (15) days of the taking of title thereto, this Lease shall expire
within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice and the Basic Rent and any Additional Rent herein reserved shall be apportioned as of said date. However, if Tenant does not exercise the aforementioned option, or if the taking does not have a
material adverse effect on the ability of Tenant to operate its business, this Lease shall not expire and to the extent that a portion of the Building has been taken, the Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be equitably apportioned pro rata in
proportion to the gross floor area of the Building taken and an equitable adjustment of the Rent in the event of a taking of the Parking Area or access way if it affects Tenant’s operations. No part of any award shall belong to Tenant except
that nothing contained herein is intended to affect or limit Tenant’s claim for fixtures or other improvements owned by Tenant, loss of business or moving expenses provided the same does not diminish Landlord’s award. It is expressly
understood and agreed that the provisions of this Article XII shall not be applicable to any condemnation or taking for governmental occupancy for a limited period of time not to exceed sixty (60) days.

permitted under the applicable regulation or order, the same shall constitute a default under Article XV hereof, and Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, do whatever is necessary to eliminate such Hazardous Materials from the Demised
Building in compliance with the applicable law, rule, regulation or order, acting either in its own name or in the name of Tenant pursuant to this Section, and the reasonable cost thereof shall be borne by Tenant and thereupon become due and payable

removal, discharge, and satisfaction of all liens, encumbrances and restrictions on the Demised Building relating to the foregoing. The foregoing indemnification and the responsibilities of Tenant under this Article XIII shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Lease. 
 (D) Upon reasonable advance notice (except in the case of emergency), Tenant agrees that
Landlord shall have the right to conduct, or to have conducted by its agents or contractors, at Landlord’s cost, such environmental inspections of the Demised Building as Landlord shall reasonably deem necessary or advisable from time to time.

 (E) Without limitation of the foregoing, in the event of the failure of Tenant to comply with any of the material requirements of any
Environmental Laws, and/or any related regulations with respect to Tenant’s activities within thirty (30) days after notice (or such other period as required by any Environmental Law), Landlord shall have the right, at the sole option of
Landlord, to comply with such statutory or regulatory requirements, and/or to cure any such default at Tenant’s sole expense, and all reasonable costs and expenses of such compliance and/or cure shall be due and payable from Tenant to Landlord
upon demand as Additional Rent hereunder. 
 Section 13.04. Tenant shall comply with all orders, requirements and conditions now
or hereafter imposed by any ordinances, laws, orders and/or regulations (hereinafter collectively called “regulations”) of any governmental body having jurisdiction over the Demised Building or the Building, whether required of Landlord or
otherwise, regarding the collection, sorting, separation and recycling of Tenant’s waste products, garbage, refuse and trash (hereinafter, collectively called “waste products”) generated from the Demised Building including but not
limited to the removal of such receptacles in accordance with any collection schedules prescribed by such regulations. Landlord reserves the right (a) to refuse to accept from Tenant any waste products that are not prepared for collection in
accordance with any such regulations, and (b) to require Tenant to pay all costs, expenses, fines, penalties or damages that may be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by reason of Tenant’s failure to comply with any such regulations.

expenses) of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, (“Claims”) incurred by or asserted against Tenant arising out of or in any way related to (i) the existence of any Hazardous Materials within the
Building prior to the Commencement Date of the Lease (or as applicable, the Early Access Period), except to the extent that such Claims are the result of conditions exacerbated by the Tenant or (ii) the use, storage, disposal, release,
discharge, spill or emission of any Hazardous Material, or the violation of any Environmental Laws, by Landlord, its agents, employees, contractors or invites. 







 ARTICLE XIV 

Subordination/Estoppels/Waiver 

Section 14.01. This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future first mortgages, first deeds of trust, or
underlying leases affecting the Demised Building. If Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period, Tenant’s occupancy shall not be disturbed in connection with the foreclosure or termination of any of the
foregoing. Tenant shall execute, at no cost to Landlord, and within 15 days of Landlord’s request, any reasonable instrument which may be desirable by Landlord to confirm the subordination of this Lease to any such first mortgage or first deed
of trust. Landlord may assign this Lease to any such mortgagee or trust deed holder in connection with any such lien superior to this Lease, and Tenant shall execute within 15 days of Landlord’s request any reasonable instrument which may be
necessary or desirable by Landlord or the holder of said lien in connection with said assignment and agrees to attorn to any such mortgagee or trust deed holder. As used in this Section, a “reasonable” instrument will, without limitation,
include a provision providing for Tenant’s continuing right to the quiet enjoyment of the Demised Building in accordance with the Lease and provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period. 

Section 14.02. Tenant and Landlord further agree, within ten (10) business days of written request, to certify by written
instrument duly executed and acknowledged to any first mortgagee, first trust deed holder or purchaser, or any proposed first mortgage lender, first trust deed holder or purchaser, or other person, that this Lease is in full force and effect, or if
not, in what respect it is not, that this Lease has not been modified, or the extent to which it has been modified, that there are no existing defaults hereunder to the best of the knowledge of the party so certifying, or specifying the defaults, if
any, and any other information which Landlord or Tenant shall reasonably require. Any such certification shall be without prejudice as between Landlord and Tenant, it being agreed that any document required hereunder shall not be used in any
litigation between Landlord and Tenant. 
 Section 14.03. In the event any lender for Tenant requests Landlord to execute a
waiver of any landlord’s lien on any personal property of Tenant and to permit such lender to enter the Demised Building and remove any such personal property on account of a default under any Tenant financing with such lender, Landlord agrees,
upon request of Tenant, to execute such waiver in favor of such lender. 
 ARTICLE XV 

Defaults, Remedies 

Section 15.01. If, during the Term, any one or more of the following acts or occurrences (any one of such occurrences or acts
being hereinafter called an Event of Default) shall happen: 
 (a) Tenant shall default in making any payment of Basic Rent or any
Additional Rent for more than ten (10) days after same were due and payable. If Tenant fails, on two (2) separate occasions in any twelve (12) month period during the Term hereof, to make payment of the Basic Rent and/or any
Additional Rent and/or late charge on or before the due date, then, whether or not Tenant ultimately makes and Landlord accepts the required payment after the due date, such failure shall entitle Landlord, upon or at any time after such second
(2nd) separate occasion, to pursue the remedies provided in this Article, said circumstances being hereby declared a default no longer susceptible of being cured or removed by Tenant; or 

(b) Tenant shall default in the performance of or compliance with any of the other covenants, agreements, terms or conditions of this Lease
to be performed by Tenant (other than any default curable by payment of money), and such default shall continue for a period of twenty (20) days after notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, or, in the case of a default which cannot with due
diligence be cured within twenty (20) days, Tenant shall fail to proceed promptly after the giving of such notice and with all due diligence to cure such default and thereafter to prosecute the curing hereof with all due diligence (it being
intended that as to a default 







 
not susceptible of being cured with due diligence within twenty (20) days, the time within which such default may be cured shall be extended for such period as may be reasonably necessary to
permit the same to be cured with all due diligence); or 
 (c) Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease shall file a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy or shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file any petition or answer seeking any reorganization, composition, readjustment or similar relief under any present or future bankruptcy or other applicable law, or shall seek or
consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee, receiver, or liquidator of Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease or of all or any substantial part of its properties or of all or any part of the Demised Premises; 

(d) If, within sixty (60) days after the filing of an involuntary petition in bankruptcy against Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease,
or the commencement of any proceeding against Tenant or such guarantor seeking any reorganization, composition, readjustment or similar relief under any law, such proceeding shall not have been dismissed, or if, within sixty (60) days after the
appointment, without the consent or acquiescence of Tenant or such guarantor, of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or such guarantor, or of all or any part of the Demised Premises, such appointment shall not have been vacated or stayed
on appeal or otherwise, or if, within sixty (60) days after the expiration of any such stay, such appointment shall have been vacated, or if, within sixty (60) days after the taking possession, without the consent or acquiescence of Tenant
or such guarantor, of the property of Tenant, or of such guarantor by any governmental office or agency pursuant to statutory authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant or such guarantor, such taking shall not have been vacated or stayed
on appeal or otherwise; or 
 (e) Tenant abandons or surrenders the Demised Building (as distinguished from ceasing operations at the
Demised Premises, which is not a default hereunder). 
 Then upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, and during the continuance thereof, Landlord
may, at its option, notwithstanding the fact that Landlord may have any other remedy hereunder or at law or in equity, by notice to Tenant, designate a date, not less than ten (10) days after the giving of such notice, on which this Lease shall
terminate; and thereupon, on such date, the Term of this Lease and the estate hereby granted shall expire and terminate with the same force and effect as if the date specified in such notice was the date hereinbefore fixed for the expiration of the
Term of this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate, but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided. Additionally, Tenant agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses
incurred by Landlord in enforcing any of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (if it is the prevailing party in any such action), this covenant to survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease. 

Section 15.02. If this Lease is terminated as provided in Section 15.01, or as permitted by law, Tenant shall peaceably quit
and surrender the Demised Building to Landlord, and if Tenant does not so quit and surrender the Demised Building to Landlord, Landlord may commence an action for possession of the Premises or other legal proceedings, and otherwise exercise all of
its remedies under applicable law, and again have, repossess and enjoy the same as if this Lease had not been made, and in any such event neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant by virtue of any law or an order of any court
shall be entitled to possession or to remain in possession of the Demised Premises. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord, in any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceeding, to prove for and obtain as
liquidated damages by reason of such termination an amount equal to the maximum allowed by any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceedings, or to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to
the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law whether such amount shall be greater or less than the excess referred to above. 

Section 15.03. Following an Event of Default, Landlord shall have the right without notice to commence an action for possession of
the Demised Building and otherwise exercise all of its remedies under applicable law, without being obligated to terminate the Lease and shall be entitled to repair the Demised Building in such manner as Landlord may deem necessary or advisable so
as to put the Demised Building in the same condition as of the date hereof to make the same rentable, and shall have the right, pursuant to legal 







 
process, at Landlord’s option, to re-let the Demised Building or a part thereof, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand all reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in obtaining
possession, and in repairing and putting the Demised Building in and the same condition as of the date hereof and in reletting the same, including reasonable fees of attorneys, and all other reasonable expenses or commissions, and Tenant shall pay
to Landlord upon the rent payment dates following the date of such re-entry and including the date for the expiration of the Term of this Lease in effect immediately prior to such re-entry, the sums of money which would have been payable by Tenant as Monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent hereunder on such rent payment dates if Landlord had not
re-entered and resumed possession of the Demised Premises, deducting only the net amount of Basic Rent and Additional Rent, if any, which Landlord shall actually receive (after deducting from the gross
receipts the expenses, costs and payments of Landlord which in accordance with the terms of this Lease would have been borne by Tenant) in the meantime from and by any reletting of the Demised Premises, and Tenant shall remain liable for all sums
otherwise payable by Tenant under this Lease, including but not limited to the expense of Landlord aforesaid, as well as for any deficiency aforesaid, and Landlord shall have the right from time to time to begin and maintain successive actions or
other legal proceedings against Tenant for the recovery of such deficiency, expenses or damages or for a sum equal to any Monthly Basic Rent payment and Additional Rent. The obligation and liability of Tenant to pay the Term Basic Rent and the
Additional Rent shall survive the commencement, prosecution and termination of any action to secure possession of the Demised Premises. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Landlord to wait to begin such action or other legal
proceedings until the date when this Lease would have expired had there not been an Event of Default. 
 Section 15.04. Tenant
hereby waives all right of redemption to which Tenant or any person under it may be entitled by any law now or hereafter in force. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages. 

Section 15.05. In the event of any breach by Tenant of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this
Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to (i) seek to enjoin such breach or threatened breach in a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) commence in a court of competent jurisdiction an action to invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or
in equity or by statute for possession though summary dispossess proceedings. During the pendency of any proceedings brought by Landlord to recover possession by reason of default, Tenant shall continue all money payments required to be made to
Landlord, and Landlord may accept such payments for use and occupancy of the Demised Premises. In such event, Tenant waives its right in such proceedings to claim as a defense that the receipt of such money payments by Landlord constitutes a waiver
by Landlord of such default. 
 Section 15.06. In the event of any breach by Landlord of any of the agreements, terms, covenants
or conditions contained in this Lease, and the same is not cured after twenty (20) days written notice to Landlord (or without notice in the case of an emergency), Tenant may, without being obliged, cure the breach and Landlord shall pay to
Tenant, immediately upon demand, the reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket cost therefor, which payment obligation shall be subject to all remedies by law or otherwise for the collection of such obligation. Tenant shall not be entitled to deduct or set
off such cost from Monthly Basic Rent, unless Landlord, after written demand for payment by Tenant, has not made payment to Tenant within thirty (30) days of such demand. In addition, Tenant shall be entitled to enjoin such breach and shall
have the right to invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or in equity or by statute. 
 ARTICLE XVI 

Assignment and Sublease 

Section 16.01. Tenant may not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, assign or transfer this Lease or the Demised Building in any manner
except as specifically provided for in this Article XVI. 
 Section 16.02. Tenant shall not assign the within Lease to any party
without the prior written consent of Landlord. In the event that Tenant desires to assign the within Lease to any other party for which Landlord’s 







 
consent is required, Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such desire and furnish Landlord with (i) an exact copy of the proposed assignment including the identity of the assignee,
(ii) a current financial statement of the assignee and (iii) the contact information for the assignee. Except for assignments pursuant to subsections 16.04(a), (c) and (d), Landlord shall require a One Thousand ($1,000.00) Dollar
payment to cover its handling charges for each request for consent to any assignment prior to its consideration of the same. Landlord’s consent to any proposed assignment shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Provided that
the financial condition of the proposed assignee is satisfactory to the Landlord in the exercise of reasonable commercial judgment, and provided that the Landlord has approved the Assignment as required hereunder, upon assignment, Landlord shall
release Tenant from any further obligations under the Lease, except for assignments under subsections 16.04 (a), (c) and (d). In the event that the assignment agreement between Tenant and the assignee provides for a fee or other compensation to
Tenant, Tenant shall pay , as a condition of Landlord’s consent to the assignment, fifty (50%) per cent of such fee or other compensation (less brokerage fees and improvement costs). 

Section 16.03. The acceptance by Landlord of any Basic Rent or Additional Rent from the assignee or the failure of Tenant to
insist upon a strict performance of any of the terms, conditions and covenants herein shall not release Tenant herein, nor any assignee assuming this Lease, from any and all of the obligations herein during and for the entire Term of this Lease.

 Section 16.04. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the sublet or assignment (a) to an Affiliated
Company; (b) in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or interests provided that the documented net worth of the assignor as determined by GAAP is equal to or greater than that of the Tenant; (c) to
an entity controlling Tenant, directly or indirectly controlled and beneficially owned by Tenant, or under common control with Tenant; or (d) any transfer between and among the owners of Tenant or any entity controlled by the owners of Tenant,
including transfers to equity holders of the owners of Tenant and transfers to trusts established for the benefit of such equity owners or their families, shall be permitted without Landlord’s consent but shall be otherwise subject to the
provisions of Sections 16.02 and 16.03. For purposes of clause (c), control shall mean possession of more than 50 percent ownership of the shares or ownership interests of the entity in question together with the power to control and manage the
affairs thereof either directly or by election of directors and/or officers. As used herein, Affiliated Company shall mean any entity related to such party as a parent, subsidiary or brother-sister entity so
that such entity and such party or such entity and such party and other entities constitute a controlled group as determined under Section 1563 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and as elaborated by the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder. 
 Section 16.05. (a) In the event that any or all of Tenant’s interest in the Demised Building
and/or this Lease is transferred by operation of law to any trustee, receiver, or other similar representative or agent of Tenant, or to Tenant as a debtor in possession, and subsequently any or all of Tenant’s interest in the Demised Building
and/or this Lease is offered or to be offered by Tenant or any trustee, receiver, or other similar representative or agent of Tenant as to its estate or property (such person, firm or entity being hereinafter referred to as the “Grantor”),
for assignment, conveyance, lease, or other disposition to a person, firm or entity other than Landlord (each such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a “Disposition”), it is agreed that Landlord has and shall have a right of
first refusal to purchase, take, or otherwise acquire, the same upon the same terms and conditions as the Grantor thereof shall accept upon such Disposition to such other person, firm, or entity; and as to each such Disposition the Grantor shall
give written notice to Landlord in reasonable detail of all of the terms and conditions of such Disposition within twenty (20) days next following its determination to accept the same but prior to accepting the same, and Grantor shall not make
the Disposition until and unless Landlord has failed or refused to accept such right of first refusal as to the Disposition, as set forth herein. 

(b) Landlord shall have thirty (30) days next following its receipt of the written notice as to such Disposition in which to exercise
the option to acquire Tenant’s interest by such Disposition, and the exercise of the option by Landlord shall be effected by notice to that effect sent to the Grantor; but nothing herein shall require Landlord to accept a particular Disposition
or any Disposition, nor does the rejection of any one such offer of first refusal constitute a waiver or release of the obligation of the Grantor to submit other offers hereunder to Landlord. In the event Landlord accepts such offer of first
refusal, the transaction shall be 







 
consummated pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Disposition described in the notice to Landlord. In the event Landlord rejects such offer of first refusal, Grantor may consummate the
Disposition with such other person, firm, or entity; but any decrease in price of more than two (2%) percent of the price sought from Landlord or any change in the terms of payment for such Disposition shall constitute a new transaction
requiring a further option of first refusal to be given to Landlord hereunder. 
 Section 16.06. Without limiting any of the
provisions of Article XV, if pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Code (herein the “Code”), or any similar law hereafter enacted having the same general purpose, Landlord declines the right provided it in the preceding paragraph and Tenant
is permitted to assign this Lease notwithstanding the restrictions contained in this Lease, adequate assurance of future performance by an assignee expressly permitted under such Code shall be deemed to mean the deposit of cash security in an amount
equal to three (3) month’s Annual Basic Rent and three (3) month’s Additional Rent (which Additional Rent shall be reasonably estimated by Landlord), which deposit shall be held by Landlord for the balance of the Lease Term,
without interest, as security for the full performance of all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, to be held and applied in the manner specified for security in Section 23.02. 

Section 16.07. Except as specifically set forth above, no portion of the Demised Building or of Tenant’s interest in this
Lease may be acquired by any other person or entity, whether by assignment, mortgage, sublease, transfer, operation of law or act of Tenant, nor shall Tenant pledge its interest in this Lease or in any security deposit required hereunder. 

Section 16.08. If Tenant is a corporation other than a corporation whose stock is listed and traded on a nationally recognized
stock exchange, the provisions of this Article XVI shall apply to a transfer (however accomplished, whether in a single transaction or in a series of related or unrelated transactions) of stock [or any other mechanism such as, by way of example, the
issuance of additional stock, a stock voting agreement or change in class(es) of stock] which results in a change of control of Tenant as if such transfer of stock (or other mechanism) which results in a change of control of Tenant were an
assignment of this Lease, and if Tenant is a partnership or joint venture, said provisions shall apply with respect to a transfer (by one or more transfers) of an interest in the distributions of profit and losses of such partnership or joint
venture (or other mechanism, such as, by way of example, the creation of additional general partnership or limited partnership interests) which results in a change of control of such partnership or joint venture as if such transfer of an interest in
the distributions of profits and losses of such partnership or joint venture which results in a change of control of such partnership or joint venture were an assignment of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
provisions of this Section 16.08 shall not apply to transactions with a corporation into or with which Tenant is merged or consolidated or to which all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets are transferred or to any corporation which
controls or is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenants, provided that in the event of such merger, consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets, (i) the successor to Tenant has a net worth
computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles at least equal to the greater of (a) the net worth of Tenant herein named on the date of this Lease, or (b) the net worth of Tenant herein named on the date prior to such
merger, consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets and (ii) proof satisfactory to Landlord of such net worth shall have been delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of any
such transaction. 
 Section 16.09. Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to any claim, against Landlord for
money damages by reason of any reasonable refusal, withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent, and in such event, Tenant’s only remedies therefor shall be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory judgment to enforce
any such requirement.

 Holding
Over 
 Section 18.01. If Tenant shall remain in the Demised Building after the expiration of the Term without having
executed and delivered a new lease with Landlord or if Tenant shall fail to surrender the Demised Building at the expiration or sooner termination of the Term in the condition required by this Lease, such holding over shall not constitute a renewal
or extension of this Lease. In either such event, Landlord may, at its option, (i) elect to treat Tenant as one who has not removed at the end of its Term, and thereupon be entitled to all the remedies against Tenant provided by law in that
situation including recovery of monetary damages sustained by Landlord from any loss or liability resulting from the failure of tenant to vacate, or (ii) Landlord may elect, at its option, to construe such holding over as a tenancy from month
to month, subject to all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except as to duration thereof, and in that event, Tenant shall pay the greater of (a) one hundred fifty percent (150%) and (b) the maximum permitted under applicable
law, of the then current Monthly Basic Rent in 







 
advance together with Additional Rent as provided in this Lease. In the event that Landlord elects to construe such holding over as a tenancy from month to month, such tenancy shall continue

“Lien”), charge, or order for the payment of money or other encumbrance shall be filed against Landlord and/or any ground or underlying lessor and/or any portion of the Demised Building (whether or not such Lien, charge, order, or
encumbrance is valid or enforceable as such), Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, cause same to be discharged of record or bonded within thirty (30) days after notice of the filing thereof; and Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless
Landlord and all ground and underlying lessor(s) against and from all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims, and demands, including reasonable counsel fees, resulting therefrom. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing provisions,
Landlord shall have the option of discharging or bonding any such Lien, charge, order, or encumbrance, and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for all costs, expenses and other sums of money in connection therewith (as Additional Rent) with interest
at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) promptly upon demand. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers, and any other persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant or any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant for the

any provision of this Lease. Neither acceptance of the keys nor any other act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee during the Term herein demised shall be deemed to be an acceptance of a surrender of said Demised Premises, excepting

or representations or prior written matter not contained in this instrument shall have any force or effect. This Lease shall not be modified in any way or terminated except by a writing executed by both parties.

Landlord’s interest under this Lease so that in the event of any transfer of title to the Demised Building Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all obligations of Landlord hereunder accruing after such transfer, except
to the extent of liability of Landlord to Tenant is the subject of a written demand or proceedings commenced before such transfer, and it shall be deemed without further agreement between the parties that such grantee, transferee or assignee has
assumed and agreed to observe and perform all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising during the period it is the holder of Landlord’s interest hereunder. 

Section 32.08. Words of Duty. Whenever in this Lease any words of obligation or duty are used, such words or expressions shall
have the same force and effect as though made in the form of covenants.

or threatened breach of any provision of this Lease. 
 Section 32.10. No Option. The submission of this Lease Agreement for
examination does not constitute a reservation of, or option for, the Demised Premises, and this Lease Agreement becomes effective as a Lease Agreement only upon execution and delivery thereof by Landlord and Tenant. 

Section 32.11. Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Basic Rent and
additional charges payable hereunder shall be deemed to be other than a payment on account of the earliest stipulated Monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or
payment for Basic Rent or Additional Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Basic Rent and Additional Rent or pursue any
other remedy provided herein or by law. 
 Section 32.12. Authority. Tenant and Landlord each represents and warrants that this
Lease and the undersigned’s execution of this Lease has been duly authorized and approved by the appropriate authority. 

Section 32.13. Applicable Law. This Lease shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio.

 Section 32.14. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. The prevailing party in any legal claim arising hereunder shall be entitled to its
reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs. 
 Section 32.15. Dispute Resolution. Before commencing legal action under this
Lease, other than for the commencement of an action for possession for non-payment of rent as set forth in Section 15.01(a) or under Sections 15.01(c) and (d), or any injunctive relief, Landlord and Tenant agree to submit to non-binding
mediation before a single neutral mediator mutually agreeable to the parties. Mediation shall take place in a neutral location mutually agreeable to the parties. Either party may provide written notice to the other party for the commencement of the
