 C. Licensor desires to grant Licensee the right to occupy
a portion of the Premises pursuant to the terms and conditions of this License. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants
contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Licensor and Licensee, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows: 
 1. License. Licensor grants the Licensee the right to use and occupy the portion of the Premises depicted on Exhibit “A” attached
hereto (the “Licensed Premises”) for general office, warehouse and distribution purposes, subject to the limitations on use and the other covenants set forth in the Prime Lease and the Sublease. From time to time, but no more
frequently than once per month, Licensor may elect to increase or decrease the size of the Licensed Premises, in which case the License Fee and Licensee’s Share of Sublease Expenses shall be adjusted as provided in Sections 2 and 3 below. In
addition to the Licensed Premises, Licensee shall have the nonexclusive right to use the main entrance to the Premises and common means of ingress and egress designated by Licensor, subject to those rules and regulations as may be adopted by
Licensor from time to time. Licensee has inspected the Licensed Premises and accepts the Licensed Premises in its “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition, with all faults, without representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, and
acknowledges and agrees that Licensor has no obligation to construct, build-out or further improved any port of the Licensed Premises or the Premises (including all common areas therein).

an amount equal to the Licensee’s Share (defined below) multiplied by the Sublease Fixed Rent (as defined in the Sublease) owed by Licensor to Sublessor for such month. In the event that the Sublease is terminated and the Prime Landlord (or its
assignee) recognizes or attorns to Sublessee upon the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease, then the License Fee shall be adjusted to an amount equal to the Licensee’s Share multiplied by the monthly base or minimum rent due and payable to
the Prime Landlord (or its assignee). If the commencement date of this License is other than the first day of a calendar month, or if the termination date of this License is other than the last day of a calendar month, the License Fee shall be
prorated on a daily basis, based on the number of days in the applicable calendar month. As used in this License, “Licensee’s Share” shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of rentable square feet of the
Licensed Premises as reasonable determined by Licensor, and the denominator of which is 70,205 (the size of the Premises).

pay to Licensor, without offset, abatement or deduction, Licensee’s Share of all utilities (e.g., electricity, water, sewer, natural gas, trash and refuse pickup, etc.) consumed at the Premises. In addition, within ten (10) days after
Licensor’s written demand therefor, Licensee shall pay to Licensor, without offset, abatement or deduction, Licensee’s Share of all (i) janitorial expenses for janitorial services provided to the Premises and the Licensed Premises, and
(ii) all insurance expenses for insurance required to be carried by Licensor under the Sublease and the applicable provisions of the Prime Lease. 
 4. Term. This License and Licensee’s right to use and occupy the Licensed Premises shall commence on January 1, 2005, and shall automatically terminate upon the termination of the Sublease, unless

Premises and agrees to perform such covenants. Licensee shall not use the Licensed Premises, or any other portion of the Premises, for any purpose that would conflict with or otherwise would constitute a breach or default of the Sublease or the
Prime Lease. In addition, to the extent that any consents or approvals of Sublandlord or the Prime Landlord are required as a condition or prerequisite to Licensee’s undertaking of any activity permitted under this License, Licensee shall first
