 and made a part hereof for all purposes; (v) because Landlord’s obligation to fund the amount of Tenant’s
Allowance set forth in Section 3.01 of Exhibit “D” to the Original Lease has expired, all references to “Tenant’s Allowance” shall mean the Tenant’s Allowance amount set forth in Section 10B below; and
(vi) notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 3.01 of Exhibit “D” to the Original Lease, Tenant’s Allowance shall only be available to Tenant during the period commencing with the date of the execution of this

Exhibit “D” to the Original Lease (as modified by this Amendment). Prior to the Outside Allowance Date, any portion of Tenant’s Allowance which has not been funded by Landlord pursuant to Article 2 of Exhibit
“D” to the Original Lease (as modified by this Amendment) may be used by Tenant for the purposes set forth in Section 3.01 of Exhibit “D” to the Original Lease (as modified by this Amendment) in other portions of
the Premises, the result of which is that the entire Tenant’s Allowance may be expended on any portion of the Premises; provided, however, in no event shall Tenant leave any portion of the Expansion Premises or the Original Premises in shell
condition, and Tenant shall build out all portions of the Expansion Premises in a manner consistent with Tenant’s build out of the Original Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Amendment to the contrary, in no event shall
Landlord be obligated to fund more than $1,471,480.00 in the aggregate with respect to Tenant’s Allowance. After the Outside Allowance Date, unfunded portions of Tenant’s Allowance shall be unavailable to Tenant and shall remain the
property of Landlord. As an additional Alteration separate from Landlord’s Work, Tenant, subject to Landlord’s prior written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the provisions of Article 10 of the
Original Lease, shall have the right to convert the existing ground floor lobby of the Building into Tenant’s reception area, including any changes that Tenant desires to make to the existing finishes contained within the ground floor lobby of
the Building, and Tenant’s Allowance shall be available to Tenant to offset the cost of such Alteration (any such work being referred to herein collectively as the “Tenant’s Lobby Work”). 
 C. Landlord shall not be obligated to make, and Tenant shall not be authorized to make, any additional improvements or alterations to the Expansion
Premises or the Original Premises except as contemplated in this Amendment or as provided in, and in accordance with, the Lease. 
 D. For
the purposes of the Lease, as modified by this Amendment, with respect to the Expansion Premises, references to “Landlord’s Work” in the Lease shall mean the Landlord’s Work performed for the Expansion Premises pursuant to the
terms of this Section 10 of this Amendment. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease or this Amendment, in no event shall Tenant be required to perform removal (or pay for the cost of removal) of the
Tenant’s Lobby Work set forth on Exhibit “D” attached hereto and made a part of the Lease for all purposes (subject, however, to minor, non-material modifications in color and design by Tenant, so long as any such
modification is substantially in accordance with said Exhibit “D”) at the end of the Term pursuant to Article 10 of the Original Lease or otherwise.
