Term and Possession 


 


Section 2.1 Term.
The initial term (“Initial Term”) of this Lease shall be nine (9) years eleven (11) months. The Initial Term shall
commence on the date of signing (the “Commencement Date") and end on the 31st day of December, 2024, unless
sooner terminated as herein provided. Tenant agrees that in the event of inability of Landlord to deliver possession of the Premises
on the Commencement Date pursuant to possession phases as set out in Section 2.5 of this Lease, Landlord shall not be liable for
any damage thereby nor shall this Lease be void or voidable. Until the entire Premises are delivered to Tenant, Tenant shall only
pay pro-rata rent based on those portions of the Premises that are ready for possession.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event Landlord is not able to deliver possession of Suite A, B and C in a completely vacated, broom-clean condition with
utilities separately metered, by May 31, 2015, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by providing written notice
to Landlord on or before June 15, 2015. In the event of such termination, Tenant shall restore the Premises to substantially the
condition of the Premises prior to possession. If Tenant fails to timely terminate the Lease as allowed herein, then the above
Tenant’s right to terminate shall lapse and be of no further force or effect.


 


In the event that an environmental
safety assessment of the Premises to be provided certified to tenant in the first thirty (30) days of the Term results in the identification
of any Hazardous Materials that adversely affect Tenant’s use of the Premises, Tenant has the right to terminate this Lease
without penalty, provided that the notice to terminate is given within 15 days after receiving the environmental safety assessment
report. In the event of such termination, Tenant shall restore the Premises to substantially the condition of the Premises prior
to possession.



 




    	 



    	 



    

 


Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Lease to the contrary, in the event that Tenant determines based upon regulatory consideration for its products
that the Building is not fit for its business use, Tenant can terminate this Lease with six (6) months’ notice prior to termination,
such notice to include Tenant’s explanation of the reasons why the Building is not fit for Tenant’s business use and
payment of six (6) month’s Rent at termination.


 


Section 2.2 Option to
Extend. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term, if Tenant is not in default, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the right to
extend the term of this Lease for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years each. The Tenant shall exercise this option to extend
this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord as provided in this Lease at least one hundred thirty-five (135) days prior to
the expiration of the then current term. The Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord during this extension shall be as set forth in
Article IV below. If Tenant fails to give written notice of extension to Landlord within the time specified, or if this Lease is
terminated, any subsequent options to extend shall expire and be of no force or effect. The exercise of any option to extend shall
be ineffective if Tenant is in default on the last day of the prior term. The Initial Term and any extended term may hereinafter
be referred to as the “Demised Term”.


 


In the event, Tenant is
then leasing the Premises, and Tenant is not then in default of this Lease, and Landlord decides to sell the Building, Tenant has
the right to purchase Building (“Refusal Option”) pursuant to the following procedures:


 


Upon notification in writing by Landlord
to Tenant that an acceptable bona fide offer to purchase the Building or an acceptable bona fide letter of intent, (“Offer”)
has been received, Tenant shall have ten (10) calendar days thereafter in which to notify Landlord in writing of its election to
purchase the Building at such purchase price and other terms contained in the Offer (“Tenant’s Offer”). If Tenant
timely notifies Landlord in writing that it is exercising the Refusal Option, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a Purchase Agreement
within five (5) calendar days after Tenant’s exercise of the Refusal Option upon the same terms and conditions contained
in the Offer or if the Offer did not include a purchase agreement, then within fifteen (15) calendar days. Tenant’s Offer
is contingent upon receipt of a satisfactory title commitment, survey, Phase I environmental report and appraisal which shall be
paid for by Tenant. Tenant shall be deemed to have waived such contingencies unless the transaction is terminated in writing by
Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s exercise of the Refusal Option. Tenant shall close the transaction within the
time stated in the Offer or if none, within five (5) days after receipt by Tenant of the later of the title commitment, survey,
Phase I environmental report or appraisal (“Closing Date”). If Tenant fails to timely execute a Purchase Agreement
or fails to close the transaction on or before the Closing Date, then- Landlord shall be free to sell the Building. The conveyance
documents, closing costs, prorations and other terms of the transaction shall be in strict accordance with the terms of the Offer.


 


Section 2.3 Lease Year
and Partial Year Defined. The term "Lease Year" means a period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months, with the
exception of the first Lease Year which commences on the Commencement Date, unless the Commencement date is not the first day of
a calendar month in which case the Lease Year shall commence on the first day of the first calendar month following the Commencement
Date and and end on December 31, 2015. Each succeeding full Lease Year shall commence upon the first of January. Any portion of
the Demised Term commencing prior to the first Lease Year, or after the expiration of the last full Lease Year, shall be deemed
a "partial lease year".


 


Section 2.4 Holding
Over. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each day Tenant retains possession of all or a part of the Premises after Termination
or expiration of this Lease a sum equal to one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the monthly Rent for the last period prior
to the date of such termination or expiration divided by thirty (30) days per month. In addition, Tenant shall pay Landlord for
all damages sustained by Landlord by reason of such retention. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after termination or expiration shall
not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease, this provision shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease,
and this provision shall not be deemed to waive Landlord’s right of re-entry or any other right under this Lease or at law.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


Section 2.5 Possession.
Landlord will deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant in phases. On the Commencement Date, Landlord shall deliver possession
of Suite A. On or before March 1, 2015, Landlord shall deliver possession of Suite C. On or before May 1, 2015, Landlord shall
deliver possession of Suite B. Landlord agrees to notify Tenant in writing when possession of each portion of the Premises is available
for possession. Except as provided in Section 2.1, Tenant agrees that, in the event of inability of Landlord to deliver possession
of any portion of the Premises prior to May 1, 2015, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage thereby nor shall this Lease be
void or voidable, but Tenant shall not be liable to pay rent on any portion of the Premises until that portion of the Premises
are ready for possession. As such, until the entire Premises is delivered to Tenant, Tenant shall only pay pro-rata Rent based
on those portions of the Premises that are ready for possession.

ARTICLE V


Reimbursements to Landlord


 


Section 5.1 Gross Lease.
Except for costs or expenses specifically set out in this Lease as being the obligation of Tenant, this is a “gross lease”.
The Rent specified in Article IV includes common area expenses (except initial parking lot repairs pursuant to Section 6.3 of this
Lease). Landlord agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, all common area utilities (but not those separately-metered utilities that
exclusively serve the Premises), real estate taxes, insurance and assessments of any kind or nature levied upon the Building or
the real estate or both, during the term of this Lease. Regarding utilities serving the Premises, the parties shall comply with
the procedures set out in Section 6.1(b) of this Lease and the Tenant shall pay for all such separately-metered utilities exclusively
serving the Premises. If Landlord shall fail to pay such charges for utilities, taxes and insurance, Tenant shall be entitled to
pay such costs and deduct such amounts from its Rent.


 


ARTICLE VI


Services, Alterations, Repairs


 


Section 6.1 Services.
Provided that Tenant shall not be in default hereunder and subject to the provisions elsewhere contained in this Lease, Landlord
agrees to furnish to the Tenant:

Landlord shall provide common area services including trash removal and snow and ice removal on sidewalk and access areas.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(b) Utilities. Landlord
shall provide water, electricity, sewers, heat and air conditioning, subject to reimbursements as outlined in Article V hereof.
Once the Premises are separately metered for any utilities, Tenant shall be responsible for and pay all such utilities that are
separately metered. Landlord intends to separately meter some or all of such utilities serving the Premises. Upon such separation,
Tenant shall contract for and pay all such separately metered utilities. Prior to such separation, Landlord shall pay the utility
invoices and bill Tenant a pro-rated amount of such utility invoices as reasonably determined by Landlord. Tenant shall pay such
utility invoices within fifteen (15) days of receipt and such charges by Landlord shall be deemed as additional Rent owed by Tenant.


 


(c) Disruption of Service.
Landlord reserves the right to suspend service of the heating, plumbing, electrical, air conditioning or other mechanical or electrical
systems when necessary by reason of governmental regulations, labor disputes, civil commotion or riot, accident or emergency or
for repairs, alterations or improvements which are in reasonable judgment of Landlord desirable or necessary, or for any other
reason beyond the power or control of Landlord without liability in damages therefore. The exercise of such right by Landlord shall
not constitute an actual or constructive eviction in whole or in part or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of rent
or relieve Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease or impose any liability upon Landlord or its agents by reason
of inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to or interruption of Tenant's business or otherwise.


 


Section 6.2 Alterations
to Premises. Landlord shall not be obligated and Tenant shall not be permitted to make any alterations, additions, repairs,
improvements or decorations to the Premises except as specifically provided for herein or without advance written consent and approval
of the Landlord. Tenant shall not affix or cause to be affixed to the Premises, including the windows, any sign, advertisement
or notice without the advance written consent of Landlord. In the absence of a written agreement to the contrary, all fixtures
including those placed in the Premises by the Tenant, except office furniture, portable enclosures and equipment of Tenant, shall
become a part of the Premises and shall remain in the Premises at the termination of the Lease as the property of Landlord. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to demolish and remove all interior partitions and other improvements in the Premises
so long as Tenant does not demolish or remove any load bearing wall, and so long as Tenant provides plans and specifications to
the Landlord for Landlord’s approval, and Landlord has no written objection within 5 days. If Landlord has no response within
5 days or expresses no objection within 5 days, Tenant’s plans and specifications shall be deemed approved and Tenant is
free to execute the plans and specifications. If Landlord objects within 5 days, Landlord’s objection shall contain a detailed
description of the elements of the plan that are not acceptable and potential recommended changes to the plan that would be acceptable.
If Landlord’s recommended changes are acceptable to the Tenant, the plan including recommended changes shall be deemed approved
by Landlord and Tenant is free to execute the plans and specifications. If Landlord’s recommended changes are not acceptable
to the Tenant, Landlord and Tenant agree to discuss alternate plans addressing the Landlord’s concerns. All such work by
Tenant shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and shall not cause harm to the Building or disturb other tenants or
occupants of the Building.


 


Section 6.3 Maintenance
and Repair of Premises.


 


(a) Landlord shall repair
and maintain the exterior structure and common areas of the Building, and all building systems, including, the roof, foundation,
structural walls, exterior doors, sprinklers, water, sewer, and plumbing systems, electric and gas lines to the point where they
enter the Premises, the HVAC system, and landscaping, parking and driveway areas in a condition comparable to top quality commercial
space in West Lafayette, Indiana except for damage caused by Tenant, its employees or invitees in excess of ordinary wear and tear.


 


Landlord shall in due course,
re-stripe, repair and relayer some or all of the parking lot serving the Building (“Parking Lot Repairs”). Upon completion
of the Parking Lot Repairs, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of billing reimburse Landlord forty percent (40%) of the cost
of the Parking Lot Repairs, not to exceed a maximum paid by Tenant of Sixty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($60,000.00).


 


(b) Tenant shall, at Tenant's
sole cost and expense, repair, clean and maintain all interior items of Premises, and the restrooms and restroom fixtures serving
the Premises, including, without limitation, all interior walls and wall coverings, floors and floor coverings, interior partition
walls, interior doors, water, sewer, electric and gas lines from the point where they enter the Premises, all in a condition comparable
to top quality commercial and office space in West Lafayette, Indiana, or at least to the quality of Premises at the beginning
of the Term, and shall be responsible to Landlord for all damage to the Premises, including window glass and plate glass, in excess
of ordinary wear and tear, and shall be responsible for damage caused to any portion of the Building or parking areas at the Building
caused by the acts or negligence of Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees, invitees and customers.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


ARTICLE VII


Liens


 


Tenant shall keep the leased
Premises and the Building free from any liens created or suffered by Tenant, including but not limited to mechanics' and material-men's
liens. In the event any lien is filed against the Premises or the Building by virtue of an act or failure to act on the part of
Tenant, Tenant shall immediately cause such lien to be released of record. Tenant’s failure to comply with the requirements
of this Article VII shall be a default by Tenant under the Lease. Upon any such default, in addition to any right of remedy of
Landlord under this lease, or under Indiana law, Landlord shall have the right, but no obligation to pay the amount of such lien,
to cause its release, and such amount shall be considered additional Rent to be paid to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest
at twelve percent (12%) per year from date of payment by Landlord of the lien. All liens and encumbrances created or suffered by
Tenant shall attach to Tenant's interest only.


 


ARTICLE VIII


Assignment and Subletting


 


Tenant shall not have the
right to assign this Lease or Sublet the Premises in whole or in part without Landlord’s prior written consent which consent
shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. Landlord’s consent need not be given unless and until Landlord
is satisfied that the replacement tenant is wholly satisfactory to Landlord. In making such a decision, Landlord may take into
account the financial strength, type of business, general reputation, and other reasonable factors pertaining to such proposed
replacement tenant. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting shall not be constructed to relieve Tenant from obtaining
the consent in writing of Landlord to any further proposed assignment or subletting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s
consent shall not be required if Tenant sublets all or a portion of the Premises to entities owned or controlled by Cook Group
Incorporated. In all events, Tenant shall remain liable under this Lease and shall not be released from liability hereunder.


 


ARTICLE IX


Indemnity, Insurance, Waiver of Subrogation/Real
Estate Taxes


 


Section 9.1 Liability
Insurance. Tenant shall obtain and keep in effect during the term of this lease at Tenant's sole expense, a policy of general
commercial liability and property damage insurance on the Premises protecting Landlord and Tenant from all claims arising out of
the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises, including Tenant's own negligence, having minimum limits of liability
of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00), for death, bodily injury and property damage combined. The policy shall name Landlord
as an additional insured. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a Certificate of Insurance evidencing such liability insurance coverage
on an annual basis. Such policies shall contain a standard waiver of subrogation provision in favor of Landlord. This policy shall
be the primary liability insurance coverage on the Premises and all insurance maintained by Tenant shall be primary and Landlord's
insurance shall be noncontributing except in the event of Landlord’s sole negligence. Landlord shall procure and maintain
during the term of this Lease general commercial liability and property damage insurance on the common areas of the Building, if
any.


 


Section 9.2 Indemnification.
Landlord and Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold each other harmless from and against any and all claims arising from
each party’s use of the Premises or from any activity or work done, permitted to be done by Tenant in or about the Premises,
except for such matters arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the other party. Landlord and Tenant shall further
indemnify, defend, protect and hold each other harmless from and against any and all claims arising from any breach or default
in the performance of any obligation on each other’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease, or arising from
any negligence of either party or their contractors or employees, and from and against all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and
liabilities incurred in the defense of any claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon, except for the sole negligence or
breach of the other party. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby assumes all risk of damage to property
or injury to persons, in, upon or about the Premises arising from any cause and holds Landlord harmless from all claims arising
there from except for the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


Section 9.3 Waiver of
Claims by Tenant.  Landlord and its agents shall have no liability to Tenant for any damage to the property of Tenant, located
in or about the Premises, no matter what the cause, except for Landlord and its agent negligence. Tenant hereby waives all claims
for recovery from Landlord for any loss or damage to the Building or the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible to insure Tenant’s
own contents and leasehold improvements located in the Premises. All fire and extended coverage insurance carried by Tenant with
respect to property located in and about the premises shall be endorsed with a clause waiving rights of recovery against landlord.
No such occurrence shall be deemed to be an actual or constructive eviction from the Premises or result in abatement or rental,
except as provided in Article XII.


 


Section 9.4 Waiver of
Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive any and all rights of recovery each against the other, or against the officers,
employees, agents and representatives of the other, for loss of or damage to each other or their respective property or the property
of others under their control to the extent that such loss or damage is insured against under any insurance policy in force at
the time of such loss or damage. Landlord and Tenant shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance required hereunder, give notice
to the insurance carrier or carriers that the foregoing waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease.


 


Section 9.5 Landlord’s
Insurance. Landlord shall keep the Building (but not the contents thereof or any personal property or trade or business fixtures
of Tenant) in which the Premises are located, and all improvements and facilities of Landlord (including, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, any and all signs and sign structures, whether insured under separate policy or otherwise) within
the common areas insured during the Demised Term against loss or damage by fire and other perils normally covered by standard all-risk
insurance or the essential equivalent thereof (subject to the general availability of such coverage in the insurance industry),
in an amount not less than five million dollars ($5,000,000), having deductibles and with insurance carriers or companies decided
upon by Landlord within Landlord's reasonable discretion. Landlord shall also maintain such liability insurance and other forms
of insurance as Landlord deems appropriate from time to time. All insurance obtained by Landlord shall be referred to herein as
“Landlord’s Insurance” and the costs of such insurance shall be referred to herein as “Landlord Insurance
Premiums”. The Landlord Insurance Premiums are considered in the Tenant’s gross lease Rent and shall be paid by the
Landlord during the Initial Term. Thereafter, if Tenant exercises its first Option to Extend, then Tenant shall pay during such
Option period in monthly installments as additional Rent that amount of increase in the Insurance as measured between the payable
amount in 2015 and the payable amount in 2024 times a fraction wherein the size of the Premises is the numerator and the size of
the Building is the denominator. Thereafter, if Tenant exercises its second Option to Extend, then Tenant shall pay during such
Option period in monthly installments as additional Rent that amount of increase in the Insurance as measured between the payable
amount in 2024 and the payable amount in 2029 times a fraction wherein the size of the Premises is the numerator and the size of
the Building is the denominator.

ordinary or extraordinary and any license fee, commercial rental tax, improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance,
personal income or estate taxes) imposed upon the Building or payable by Landlord (or against Landlord’s business of leasing
the Building) during the Demised Term by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, together with costs and expenses
of contesting the validity or amount of the Real Estate Taxes. The Real Estate Taxes are considered in the Tenant’s gross
lease Rent and shall be paid by the Landlord during the Initial Term. Thereafter, if Tenant exercises its first Option to Extend

Estate Taxes as measured between the payable amount in 2015 and the payable amount in 2024 times a fraction wherein the size of
the Premises is the numerator and the size of the Building is the denominator. Thereafter, if Tenant exercises its second Option
to Extend then Tenant shall pay during such Option period in monthly installments as additional Rent that amount of increase in
the Real Estate Taxes as measured between the payable amount in 2024 and the payable amount in 2029 times a fraction wherein the
size of the Premises is the numerator and the size of the Building is the denominator.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


ARTICLE X


Subordination of Mortgages/Estoppel


 


This Lease and all rights
of Tenant hereunder are subject and subordinate to the rights of the lien or liens of any mortgage or mortgages now or at any time
hereafter in force and the interest of Landlord, in the Building, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security
thereof. If requested by the holder of any such mortgage or mortgages, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to such holder an instrument,
in form and substance satisfactory to the holder, specifically subordinating this Lease to the lien of such mortgage or mortgages,
and attorning to the rights of such mortgage holder.


 


Landlord shall, prior to
May 1, 2015 obtain from any current lender of Landlord a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement ("SNDA")
in form reasonably acceptable to such lender and Tenant, and providing that as long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, the
Tenant's right to possession of the Premises will not be disturbed. Tenant shall execute such SNDA from the current lender, and
Tenant agrees to execute such an SNDA for the benefit of any future lender of Landlord.


 


Within ten (10) days following
receipt of a request from Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord, without cost, an estoppel certificate (“Estoppel
Certificate”) in such form as Landlord may reasonably request certifying (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect
and unmodified (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification), (ii) the date to which rent has been paid, (iii) that
there are not, to Tenant's knowledge, any uncured defaults (or specifying such defaults if any are claimed), (iv) the amount of
any leasing commissions being claimed by Tenant’s real estate agent or broker due as a result of this Lease; and (v) any
other matters or state of facts reasonably required respecting the Lease or Tenant's occupancy of the Premises. Such estoppel may
be relied upon by Landlord and by any purchaser or mortgagee of all or any part of the Building. Tenant's failure to deliver such
statement within such period shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified and that
there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance hereunder.

Section 12.1 Remedies.
If a Default by Tenant occurs, Landlord shall have the rights and remedies hereinafter set forth, which shall be distinct, separate
and cumulative and shall not operate to exclude or deprive the Landlord of any other right or remedy allowed it by law:


 


Landlord may (i) elect
to terminate the Lease, (ii) immediately re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises without such
re-entry being deemed to terminate the Lease, and Landlord may store any property recovered at the cost of and for the account
of Tenant, or (iii) perform the covenant of Tenant which is in default (entering on the Premises if necessary) and Landlord's performance
of such covenant shall neither subject Landlord to liability for any loss, inconvenience, or damage to Tenant nor be construed
as a waiver of Tenant's default or of any other right or remedy respecting such default, and Tenant shall pay the cost thereof
plus a fifteen percent (15%) administrative fee. Should Landlord elect to re-enter as herein provided, take possession pursuant
to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, or terminate Tenant's rights under this Lease, Landlord may,
but shall not be obligated to, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending
beyond the Demised Term) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in the exercise of
Landlord's sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. Such re-entry, repossession
or reletting shall not constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises by Tenant. Upon each such reletting
(a) Tenant immediately shall be liable for payment to Landlord, of any indebtedness of Tenant other than rental due hereunder,
the cost and expense of such reletting (including but not limited to leasing commissions payable to Landlord, or its affiliates,
or to independent brokers) and of such alterations and repairs incurred by Landlord, and the amount, if any, by which the rental
reserved in this Lease for the period of such reletting (up to but not beyond the Demised Term) discounted to the present value
at the prime rate of interest exceeds the amount agreed to be paid as rental for the Premises for such period of such reletting;
or (b) at the option of Landlord, rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any
indebtedness of Tenant other than rental due hereunder; second, to the payment of any cost and expense of such reletting and of
such alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of rental due and unpaid hereunder; and the residual amount, if any, shall
be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rental as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Notwithstanding any
reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for Tenant's previous default.
Upon termination of this Lease, Landlord’s remedies shall survive such termination, and as such, Landlord shall nevertheless
be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's default, including the cost of recovering
the Premises, and including the rental reserved and charged in this Lease for the remainder of the Demised Term , all of which
amounts shall be immediately due and payable with attorneys' fees from Tenant to Landlord. In addition to any other remedy Landlord
may have, Landlord may recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may incur by reason of Tenant's default, including the cost of
recovering the Premises, and including the rental reserved and charged in this Lease for the remainder of the Demised Term, all
of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable with attorneys' fees from Tenant to Landlord. Notwithstanding anything contained
in this Section 12.1 to the contrary, Landlord shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages
resulting from Tenant’s default.


 


Section 12.2 Property.
All property removed from the Premises by Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease or of law may be removed or stored by
the Landlord at the cost and expense of the Tenant, and the Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation
or safekeeping of the property. Tenant shall pay Landlord for all expenses incurred by Landlord in such removal and storage charges
against such property so long as the same shall be in Landlord's possession or under Landlord's control. All property not removed
from the Premises or retaken from storage by Tenant within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term, however terminated, shall
be conclusively deemed to have been conveyed by Tenant to Landlord as by bill of sale without further payment or credit by Landlord
to Tenant.


 


Section 12.3 Expenses.
Tenant shall pay all of Landlord's reasonable costs, charges and expenses, including court costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred
in enforcing Tenant's obligations under this Lease or incurred by Landlord in any litigation, negotiation or transactions in which
the Landlord becomes involved or concerned due to Landlord's relationship to Tenant.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


ARTICLE XIII


Damage by Fire and Eminent Domain


 


Section 13.1 Fire or
Casualty. If all or any substantial part of the Building is damaged or made untenantable by fire or other casualty, whether
or not the Premises are damaged, the Landlord shall determine, within ninety (90) days of such casualty whether to restore the
Building. If the Landlord shall determine not to restore the Building, either party may, by notice to the other party, given within
ninety (90) days after such determination, terminate this Lease. If the Landlord does determine to restore the Building Landlord
shall proceed diligently to make such repairs and restoration and must complete such reconstruction within two hundred seventy
(270) days of the casualty. If the Premises are not restored within such 270-day period, then Tenant, upon written notice to Landlord,
may terminate this Lease. If all the Premises are untenantable, all rent shall abate from the casualty date until the Premises
are substantially restored and reasonably accessible for occupancy by Tenant or this Lease is terminated as hereinabove provided;
if part of the Premises are untenantable, rent shall be pro-rated on a per diem basis and apportioned in accordance with the part
of the Premises which is usable by Tenant until the damaged part is ready for tenant's occupancy, or this Lease is terminated as
hereinabove provided. In all cases, due allowance shall be made for reasonable delay caused by adjustment of insurance loss, strikes,
labor difficulties or any cause beyond Landlord's control. Landlord shall have no duty to repair, restore or replace Tenant's improvements,
including, but not limited to, wall and floor coverings, light fixtures, built-in cabinets and bookshelves, and other improvements
installed by or for Tenant.


 


Section 13.2 Eminent
Domain. If all or any substantial part of the Premises, or (at the option of Landlord) if a substantial part of the Building
(whether or not the Premises are affected) shall be taken or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public
use or purpose, the Term of this Lease shall end upon and not before the date when the possession of the part so taken shall be
required for such use of purpose, and without apportionment of the award to or for the benefit of the Tenant, except that Landlord
shall not be entitled to any award made directly to Tenant for moving expenses.


 


ARTICLE XIV


Surrender of Premises


 


At the end of the Demised
Term or other earlier termination of this Lease, the Tenant will peaceably deliver to the Landlord possession of the Premises,
together with all improvements or additions upon or belonging to the same, by whomsoever made, in good condition, ordinary wear
and tear, condemnation, and damage by fire, earthquake, act of God, or the elements alone excepted. Upon the termination of this
Lease, Tenant shall at Tenant's sole cost, remove all counters, trade fixtures, office furniture and equipment installed by Tenant,
unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord. Tenant shall also repair any damage caused by such removal. Tenant's obligation
to pay for the removal of such counters, fixtures and equipment and the repair of such damage shall survive the termination of
this Lease. Property not so removed shall be deemed abandoned at the termination of this Lease by the Tenant, and title to the
same shall thereupon pass to Landlord. Tenant shall indemnify the Landlord against any loss or liability to a succeeding tenant
resulting from delay by Tenant in surrendering the Premises.


 


ARTICLE XV


Waiver


 


The waiver by Landlord
of any term, covenant, or condition contained in this Lease shall be in writing, and waiver in one instance shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition in the future, or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant,
or condition contained in this Lease. The subsequent acceptance of rent or other performance hereunder by Landlord shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease, regardless of Landlord's
knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent or other performance, unless Landlord shall specifically
so state in writing.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


ARTICLE XVI

which may or are required to be given by either party to the other under this Lease shall be in writing and shall be sent by United
States first class or certified mail, postage prepaid, or nationally recognized overnight courier addressed to Umesh Patel, Vice
President and General Manager, Cook Biotech Inc., 1425 Innovation Place, West Lafayette, IN 47906 (Tenant) and addressed to Jeff

Tenant, upon paying the rent and performing each and every covenant and agreement hereof, shall peacefully and quietly hold, occupy
and enjoy the Premises and the Common Facilities throughout the term of this lease, without hindrance by any person claiming or
holding under or through Landlord.


 


ARTICLE XVIII


Landlord Default


 


The failure by Landlord
to observe or perform any covenant, agreement, condition or provision of this Lease, if such failure shall continue for thirty
(30) days after written notice to Landlord by Tenant shall constitute a Default by Landlord under this Lease. Tenant shall look
solely to the estate and property of Landlord in the Building for the collection of any judgment (or other judicial process) requiring
the payment of money by Landlord in the event of any default or breach by Landlord with respect to any of the terms, covenants,
and conditions of this Lease to be observed and/or performed by Landlord, and no other property or assets of Landlord shall be
subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of Tenant's remedies. In no event shall individual
officers, directors, trustees, partners, shareholders, managing agents, or employees of Landlord, or of any subsidiary wholly owned
by Landlord, be personally liable hereunder.


 


ARTICLE XIX


INSOLVENCY OR BANKRUPTCY


 


Section 19.01. Insolvency
or Bankruptcy  In the event Tenant shall become a debtor under Chapter 7 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code ("Code")
or a petition for reorganization or adjustment of debts is filed concerning a petition for reorganization or adjustment of debts
if filed concerning Tenant under Chapters 11 or 13 of the Code or a proceeding is filed under Chapter 7 and is transferred to Chapters
11 or 13, the Trustee or Tenant, as Debtor-in-Possession may not elect to assume this Lease unless, at the time of such assumption,
the Trustee, as Debtor-in-Possession has:


 


(i) Cured or provided Landlord
"adequate assurance" (as defined below) that:


 


(a)  within ten (10) days
from the date of such assumption, the Trustee or Debtor-In-Possession will cure all monetary defaults under this Lease; and


 


(b)  Within thirty (30)
days from the date of such assumption, the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession will cure all non-monetary defaults under this Lease.


 


(ii)   For purposes of this
Section, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that, in the context of bankruptcy proceedings of Tenant, at a minimum "adequate
assurance" shall mean:


 


(a)  The Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession
has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses
to assure Landlord that the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession will have sufficient funds to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under
this Lease, and to keep the Premises stocked with merchandise and properly staffed with sufficient employees to conduct a fully-operational,
actively promoted business in the Premises; and


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


(b)  The Bankruptcy Court
shall have entered an Order segregating sufficient cash payable to Landlord and/or the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession shall have
granted a valid and perfected first lien and security interest and/or mortgage in property of Tenant, the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession,
acceptable as to value and kind to Landlord to secure to Landlord the obligation of the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession to cure
the monetary and/or non-monetary defaults under this Lease with the time periods set forth above.


 


If the Trustee or Debtor-in-Possession
has assumed the Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Section for the purpose of assigning Tenant's interest hereunder to any
other person or entity, such interest may be assigned only after the Trustee, Debtor-in-Possession or the proposed assignee have
complied with all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, with Landlord and Tenant acknowledging that such terms,
covenants and conditions are commercially reasonable in the context of a bankruptcy proceeding of Tenant. When, pursuant to the
code, the Trustee or Debtor-In-Possession shall be obligated to pay reasonable use and occupancy charges for the use of the Premises
or any portion thereof, such charges shall not be less than the rent payable by Tenant hereunder, or in the event Tenant has ceased
doing business in the Premises, the reasonable use and occupancy charge shall be equal to the then reasonable rental value of the
Premises. The rights, remedies and liabilities of Landlord and Tenant set forth in this Section shall be in addition to those which
may now or hereafter be accorded, or imposed upon, Landlord and Tenant by the Code.


 


Section 19.02. Landlord
Insolvency or Bankruptcy. In the event Landlord shall become a debtor under Chapter 7 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code ("Code")
or a petition for reorganization or adjustment of debts is filed concerning a petition for reorganization or adjustment of debts
is filed concerning Landlord under Chapters 11 or 13 of the Code or a proceeding is filed under Chapter 7 and is transferred to
Chapters 11 or 13, Tenant shall have all rights and remedies available to a lessee under Section 365(h) of the Code.  


 


ARTICLE XX

safety assessment of the premises and warrants that the Premises leased by the Tenant are free of Hazardous Material prior to Tenant’s
possession. Tenant shall not cause, allow, or permit any Hazardous Material to be brought upon, generated, manufactured, stored,
handled, disposed of, or used at, on, about, or beneath the Premises or any portion of the Premises by Tenant, its agents, employees,
contractors, invitees, or licensees without the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that
Tenant shall comply fully with all federal, state, and local environmental, health, or safety statutes, rules, regulations, or
ordinances. If Tenant breaches the obligations stated in this Article XX, or if the presence of Hazardous Material on the Premises
or the Building caused Tenant results in contamination of the Premises or the Building, or if contamination of the Premises or
the Building by Hazardous Material otherwise occurs for which Tenant is legally liable to Landlord for damages resulting therefrom,
then Tenant shall indemnify, defend by counsel acceptable to Landlord and hold harmless Landlord, its subsidiaries, affiliates,
successors, and assigns from any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, liabilities, or losses (including,
without limitation, diminution in value of the Premises or the Building, damages for the loss or restriction on use of rentable
or usable space or of any amenity of the Premises or the Building, damages arising from any adverse impact on marketing of space,
and sums paid in settlement of claims, attorneys' fees, consultant fees, and expert fees) which arise during or after the Demised
Term as a result of such contamination. The provisions of this Article shall survive, and remain in full force and effect after,

contamination occurs (including, but not limited to evacuation procedures). The Safety Procedures shall include, but not be limited
to a plan for IMMEDIATELY notifying Landlord and other tenants or occupants of the Building. Once Safety Procedures that are acceptable
to Landlord are in place, Tenant shall comply with the Safety Procedures. Tenant’s failure to comply with the Safety Procedures,
after notice and opportunity to cure, shall be a default under this Lease.
