Equities, LLC and 1122 Associates, LLC, c/o Prime Locations, Inc., 50 Washington Street, South Norwalk, Connecticut 06854, party of the first part, hereinafter referred to as Owner, and EDGAR Online, Inc., a Delaware corporation, 50 Washington
Street, South Norwalk, Connecticut 06854, party of the second part, hereinafter referred to as Tenant. 
 Witnesseth: 
 Owner hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby hires from Owner a portion of the eleventh (11th) floor, known as Suite 1101 and more fully shown on the
floor plan annexed hereto as Schedule A (the “Demised Premises”), in the building (the “Building”) known as 50 Washington Street, in the City of Norwalk, Connecticut for a term of five (5) years and one
(1) month (or until such term shall sooner cease and expire as hereinafter provided) to commence on the 1st day
of June, 2006 (“Lease Commencement Date”), and to end on the 30th day of June, 2011 (“Lease Expiration Date”), both dates inclusive, at an annual rental rate as set forth in Article 1 herein, which Tenant agrees to
pay in lawful money of the United States which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, at the time of payment, in equal monthly installments in advance on the first day of each month during said term, at the
office of Owner or such other place as Owner may designate in writing, without any set off or deduction whatsoever, except that Tenant shall pay the first monthly installment on the execution hereof (unless this Lease be a renewal). 
 In the event that, at the commencement of the term of this Lease, or thereafter, Tenant shall be in default in the payment of rent to Owner pursuant to
the terms of another lease with Owner or with Owner’s predecessor in interest, Owner may at Owner’s option and without notice to Tenant add the amount of such arrears to any monthly installment of rent payable hereunder and the same shall
be payable to Owner as Additional Rent. 
 The parties hereto, for themselves, their heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, legal
representatives, successors and assigns, hereby covenant as follows: 
 1. Rent During the Term. 
 (a) Commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Owner annual rent (the “Base Rent”) as set forth on
the schedule below in equal monthly installments on the 1st day of each and every month, without counterclaim, setoff or deduction. The Base Rent shall be due and payable as follows: 
  

							
	 Period
	  	Annual Rent	  	Monthly Rent
	 6/1/2006 - 6/30/2007
	  	$	145,200.00	  	$	12,100.00
	 7/1/2007 - 6/30/2008
	  	$	147,840.00	  	$	12,320.00
	 7/1/2008 - 6/30/2009
	  	$	150,532.80	  	$	12,544.40
	 7/1/2009 - 6/30/2010
	  	$	153,279.46	  	$	12,773.29
	 7/1/2010 - 6/30/2011
	  	$	156,081.05	  	$	13,006.75

 (b) Notwithstanding subsection (a), Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base
Rent with respect to the period prior to the date which is the later of (i) July 1, 2006 and (ii) the date which is the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which occurs the substantial completion of Owner’s Work (as such term is defined
in Article 48 below); provided, however, that Tenant shall pay the Electricity Inclusion Factor (as hereinafter defined), in the amount of $1,100.00 per month, from and after the date on which occurs the substantial completion of Owner’s Work.

 2. Occupancy. 
 (a) Tenant shall use and occupy Demised Premises for general office space and for no otter purposes. 
 (b) Tenant
represents that it shall not disturb the occupancy of other tenants of the building by reason of odors, noise or vibration emanating from the Demised Premises. 
 (c) Tenant will not at any time use or occupy the Demised Premises in violation of the certificate of occupancy issued for the Building.

 (d) Tenant shall have the right to occupy the Demised Premises on or after April 15, 2006 and prior to the Lease
Commencement Date. Such prior occupancy shall be on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent. 
 3. Tenant’s Work and Alterations. 
 (a) Preparation of Premises; Tenant’s
Work. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, may make future alterations, decorations, installations or improvements in or to the Demised Premises (collectively referred to herein as “Tenant’s Work”), all subject
to Owner’s prior approval and the other requirements and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant may make minor decorative alterations without Owner’s prior consent. Owner agrees to not unreasonably withhold its consent to any
Tenant’s Work, provided: 
 (i) It is non-structural in nature; 
 (ii) It is performed only by such contractors or mechanics reasonably approved by Owner; 
  

 4 








 (iii) In the opinion of Owner, the Tenant’s Work will not adversely affect the
functioning of the Building’s mechanical, electrical, sanitary, plumbing and heating systems or any other utility or service systems; 
 (iv) The Tenant’s Work will not result in a violation of, or require a change in, the certificate of occupancy applicable to the Demised Premises or the Building; 
 (v) The character, outside appearance, usefulness or rentability of the Building either in the course of the making of such Tenant’s
Work or upon completion, will not be adversely affected; 
 (vi) No part of the Building outside of the Demised Premises will
be physically affected; 
 (vii) Tenant shall submit to Owner detailed plans and specifications of Tenant’s Work prepared
by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense for Owner’s review; 
 (viii) No such Tenant’s Work shall be
undertaken until Tenant shall have procured and paid for, so far as the same may be required from time to time, all permits and authorizations of any federal, state or municipal government or department, or subdivision of same, having jurisdiction,
and furnished the same to Owner along with a certificate evidencing that Tenant and Tenant’s contractors have procured and paid for Workmen’s Compensation Insurance covering all persons employed in connection with Tenant’s Work and
with respect to whom death or bodily injury claims could be asserted against Owner and Tenant, and general liability insurance, including as the insured, Owner and Tenant with limits of not less than those fixed for such insurance in this Lease,
shall be maintained by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense at all times when any Tenant’s Work is in progress; 
 (ix) Tenant shall promptly reimburse Owner for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Owner in connection with: (a) its decision and if required, (b) the decision of any superior mortgagee and underlying owner as to
whether to approve any Tenant’s Work, and (c) the inspection of the Tenant’s Work to determine whether the same are being or have been performed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications therefor and with all legal
requirements and insurance requirements, including the fees and expenses of any attorney, architect or engineer employed for such purpose. Owner shall exercise its good faith efforts to obtain any required consents from any superior mortgagee and
underlying owner but in no event shall Owner be required to initiate any action in connection therewith. If such Tenant’s Work requires consent by or notice to the superior mortgagee or underlying owner, Tenant, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Article, shall not proceed with the same until such consent has been received, or such notice has been given, as the case may be, and all applicable conditions and provisions of the superior mortgagee or underlying owner
wish respect to the proposed Tenant’s Work have been met or complied with at Tenant’s sole expenses. Any Tenant’s Work for which consent has been received shall be performed in accordance with approved plans and specifications
therefor, and no changes other than minor field changes thereto shall be made without the prior consent of Owner; 
 (x)
Except for minor decorative alterations and the installation of personal property, business fixtures, furniture and inventory, no alterations and/or additions shall be undertaken except under the supervision of a licensed architect or licensed
professional engineer reasonably satisfactory to Owner; 
 (xi) All Tenant’s Work shall be performed in a good and first
class workmanlike manner, using new materials and equipment at least equal in quality to the then standards for the Building established by the Owner. All Tenant’s Work shall be promptly commenced and completed and shall be performed in such
manner so as not to interfere with the occupancy of any other tenant nor delay or impose any additional expense upon Owner in the maintenance, cleaning, repair, safety, management, or security of the Building or the Building’s equipment. If any
additional expense is incurred, Owner may collect the same from Tenant and Tenant’s failure to promptly pay the same when billed shall entitle Owner to treat such nonpayment as a nonpayment of rent under this Lease. Upon the completion of
Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall deliver a complete set of “As Built” drawings and plans to Owner. No improvement shall involve the removal of any fixtures, equipment or other property in the Demised Premises which are not the
Tenant’s sole and exclusive property without the Owner’s prior written consent which shall not be withheld if they shall be promptly replaced, at Tenant’s expense, with fixtures, equipment or other property of like utility and at
least equal value (which thereupon shall become the property of the Owner); 
 (xii) No approval of any plans or
specifications made by Owner or consent by Owner allowing Tenant to make any improvements or any inspection of improvements made by or for Owner shall in any way be deemed to be an agreement by Owner that the contemplated improvements comply with
any legal requirements or insurance requirements or the certificate of occupancy of the Building, nor shall it be deemed to be a waiver by Owner of the compliance of Tenant with any such legal or insurance requirements; 
 
 (xiii) All fixtures and fixture-type equipment installed or used
by Tenant in the Premises shall be fully paid for by Tenant and shall not be subject to conditional bills of sale, chattel mortgages or other title retention agreements; all fixtures and all paneling, partitions, railings and like installations,
installed in the premises at any time, either by Tenant or by Owner on Tenant’s behalf, shall upon installation, become the property of Owner and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Demised Premises unless Owner, by notice to Tenant
no later than twenty days prior to the date fixed as the termination of this Lease, elects to relinquish the Owner’s right thereto and to have them removed by Tenant, in which event the same shall be removed from the premises by Tenant prior to
the expiration of this Lease, at Tenant’s expense. Nothing in this Article shall be construed to give Owner title to or to prevent Tenant’s removal of trade fixtures, moveable office furniture and equipment, but upon removal of any such
from the premises or upon removal of other installations as may be required by Owner, Tenant shall immediately and at its expense, repair and restore the premises to the condition existing prior to installation and repair any damage to the Demised
Premises or the building due to such removal. All property 

  

 5 








 
permitted or required to be removed, by Tenant at the end of the term remaining in the premises after Tenant’s removal shall be deemed abandoned and
may, at the election of Owner, either be retained as Owner’s property or may be removed from the premises by Owner, at Tenant’s expense. 
 (xiv) On the completion date of Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall deliver to Owner a Certificate of Occupancy or an equivalent permit or certificate which may be required by any governmental authority having
jurisdiction thereof. 
 (b) Exterior Alterations. Tenant may not make any changes or installations to the exterior of
the Demised Premises, or intended to be visible from the exterior of the Demised Premises. No window-type air conditioner may be installed in the building or through any of its exterior walls and no equipment may be installed on the roof of the
building. No openings may be cut in the roof, floors, or the exterior walls of the building. 
 4. Signs. 
 Any sign or other installation intended to be visible from outside the Demised Premises installed by Tenant must be approved by Owner for
content, color, construction, and method of installation in Owner’s sole discretion. The sign, as installed, shall comply with all municipal requirements and shall comply with Owner’s standard for the building. Owner will not unreasonably
withhold consent to an identification sign on Tenant’s door at the entrance to its space. 
 5. Maintenance and Repairs.

 (a) Tenant shall, throughout the term of this Lease, at its own cost and expense, take good care of the Demised Premises
and the fixtures and appurtenances therein. Tenant shall be responsible for all damage or injury to the Demised Premises or any other part of the building and the systems and equipment thereof, whether requiring structural or nonstructural repairs
caused by or resulting from carelessness, omission, neglect or improper conduct of Tenant, Tenant’s subtenants, agents, employees, invitees or licensees, or which arise out of any work, labor, service or equipment done for or supplied to Tenant
or any Subtenant or arising out of the installation, use or operation of the property or equipment of Tenant or any Subtenant. Tenant shall also repair all damage to the building and the Demised Premises caused by the moving of Tenant’s
fixtures, furniture and equipment. Tenant shall promptly make, at Tenant’s expense, all repairs in and to the Demised Premises for which Tenant is responsible, using only the contractor for the trade or trades in question, selected from a list
of at least two contractors per trade submitted by Owner. If any replacements become necessary or advisable, Tenant shall make replacements of equal quality, value and design, as reasonably determined by the Owner. If, in the Owner’s sole
opinion, any repairs or maintenance are not made within 60 days, then in addition to any other remedies Owner may have, Owner may perform the obligation of Tenant and charge the Tenant the cost of same as Additional Rent. However, the aforesaid 60
days shall be reasonably extended if Tenant is making a good faith effort to make the required repair or perform the required maintenance but is prevented from doing so for reasons beyond Tenant’s reasonable control. 
 (b) Owner shall maintain in good working order and repair the exterior and the structural portions of the building, including the
structural portions of the Demised Premises, and the public portions of the building interior and the building plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilating systems (to the extent such systems presently exist) serving the Demised Premises. Tenant
agrees to give prompt notice of any defective condition in the premises for which Owner may be responsible hereunder. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of
inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or others making repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the building or the Demised Premises or in and to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment
thereof. It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any setoff or reduction of rent by reason of any failure of Owner to comply with the Covenants of this or any other Article of this Lease. Tenant agrees that Tenant’s sole
remedy at law in such instance will be by way of an action for damages for breach of contract. The provisions of this Article 5 shall not apply in the case of fire or other casualty which are dealt with elsewhere in this Lease. 
 (c) Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall cause all portions of the Demised Premises used for storage, preparation, service or
consumption of food or beverages regularly to be exterminated against infestation by vermin, rodents or roaches by persons approved in writing in advance by Owner. 
 (d) Tenant will not clean nor require, permit, suffer or allow any window in the Demised Premises to be cleaned from the outside in
violation of any applicable law. 
 6. Mechanics’ Liens. 
 
 If any mechanics or other liens or orders for the payment of
money shall be filed against the Demised Premises or any building or improvement thereon by reason of or arising out of any labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished or to be furnished to, or for the Tenant at the leased
premises or for or by reason of any change, alteration or addition or the cost or expense thereof, or any contract relating thereto, or against the Owner thereof, the Tenant shall within thirty (30) days cause the same to be canceled and
discharged of record, by bond or otherwise at the election and expense of the Tenant, and shall also defend on behalf of the Owner at the Tenant’s sole cost and expense, any action, suit or proceeding which may be brought thereon or for the
enforcement of such lien(s), or orders. If the Tenant shall fail to take such action as shall cause such lien to be discharged within thirty (30) days after notice to the Tenant of the filling of such lien, the Owner may pay the amount of such
lien or discharge the same by deposit or by bonding proceedings, and in that event, Owner may require the lienor to prosecute an appropriate action to enforce the lienor’s claim. In such case, the Owner may pay any judgment recovered on such
claim. Any amount paid or expense incurred by the Owner, as herein provided, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent for the Demised Premises and shall be due and payable by the Tenant to the Owner on demand on the first day of the next following
month. 
  

 6 








 7. Compliance with Law, Fire Insurance, Floor Load Requirements. 
 Prior to the Lease Commencement Date, if Tenant is then in possession, and at all times thereafter, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and
expense, shall promptly comply with all present and future laws, orders and regulations of all state, federal, municipal and local governments, departments, commissions and boards and any direction of any public officer pursuant to law, and all
orders, rules and regulations of any state Board of Fire Underwriters, Insurance Service Office, or any similar body which shall impose any violation, order or duty upon Owner or Tenant with respect to the Demised Premises, whether or not arising
out of Tenant’s use or manner of use thereof, (including Tenant’s permitted use) or, with respect to the Building if arising out of Tenant’s use or manner of use of the premises or the building (including the use permitted under this
Lease). Nothing herein shall require Tenant to make structural repairs or alterations unless Tenant has, by its manner of use of the Demised Premises or method of operation therein, violated any such laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or
requirements with respect thereto. Tenant may, after securing Owner to Owner’s satisfaction against all damages, interest, penalties and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, by cash deposit or by surety bond
in an amount and from a company satisfactory to Owner, contest and appeal any such laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or requirements provided same is done with all reasonable promptness and provided such appeal shall not subject Owner to
prosecution for a criminal offense or constitute a default under any lease or mortgage under which Owner may be obligated, or cause the Demised Premises or any part thereof to be condemned or vacated. Tenant shall not do or permit any act or thing
to be done in or to the Demised Premises which is contrary to law, or which will invalidate or be in conflict with public liability, fire or other policies of insurance at any time carried by or for the benefit of Owner with respect to the Demised
Premises or the building of which the Demised Premises form a part, or which shall or might subject Owner to any liability or responsibility to any person or for property damage. Tenant shall not keep anything in the Demised Premises except as now
or hereafter permitted by any fire department, Board of Fire Underwriters, fire insurance rating organization, or other authority having jurisdiction over the Demised Premises, and then only in such manner which will increase the insurance rate for
the building or any property located therein over that in effect prior to the commencement of Tenant’s occupancy. Tenant shall pay all costs, expenses, fines, penalties, or damages, which may be imposed upon Owner by reason of Tenant’s
failure to comply with the provisions of this Article and if by reason of such failure the fire insurance rate shall, at the beginning of this Lease or at any time thereafter, be higher than it otherwise would be, then Tenant shall reimburse Owner,
as Additional Rent hereunder, for that of all fire insurance premiums thereafter paid by Owner which shall have been charged because of such failure by Tenant. In any action or proceeding wherein Owner and Tenant are parties, a schedule or
“make up” of rate for the building or Demised Premises issued by a body making fire insurance rates applicable to said premises shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in the fire
insurance rates then applicable to said premises. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the Demised Premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area which it was designed to carry and which is allowed by law. Owner reserves the right
to prescribe the weight and position of all safes, business machines and mechanical equipment. Such installations shall be placed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, in settings sufficient, in Owner’s judgment, to absorb and
prevent vibration, noise and annoyance. To the best knowledge of Owner, the Building does not violate any environmental laws or the Americans with Disabilities Act. 
 8. Indemnity and Waiver of Subrogation. 
 (a) Owner covenants and agrees to indemnify
and save harmless Tenant and any agents, officers and employees, licensees and invitees, of Tenant from and against any and all loss or liability (statutory or otherwise), claims, suits, demands, damages, judgments, costs, interest and expenses
(including, but not limited to, counsel fees, witness fees and disbursements incurred in the defense of any action or proceeding), to which they may be subject or which they may suffer, by reason of any claim for, any injury to, or death of, any
person or persons (including, without limitation, Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees, licensees and invitees) or damage to property (including any loss of use thereof) arising from or in connection with the common areas of the Building
arising from and after the execution of this Lease, or resulting from any default by Owner in the performance of Owner’s obligations under this Lease or from any act, omission or negligence of Owner or any of Owner’s officers, directors,
agents, contractors, employees, tenants, licensees or invitees (individually and collectively, “Claims”). Owner shall pay, satisfy and discharge any judgments, orders and decrees which may be recovered against Tenant within ninety
days after the rendering thereof. This indemnity shall be construed so that Owner shall defend and indemnify Tenant at Owner’s expense, using counsel satisfactory to Tenant, in each instance in which a Claim is made. Owner shall be responsible
for the protection of Tenant under this clause as soon as a Claim is made. 
 
 (b) Tenant covenants and agrees to indemnify and save harmless Owner and any managing agent, fee owner and any mortgagee and any lessor under any ground or underlying lease, and their respective contractors, agents,
officers and employees, licensees and invitees, from and against any and all loss or liability (statutory or otherwise), claims, suits, demands, damages, judgments, costs, interest and expenses (including, but not limited to, counsel fees, witness
fees and disbursements incurred in the defense of any action or proceeding), to which they may be subject or which they may suffer, by reason of any claim for, any injury to, or death of, any person or persons (including, without limitation, Owner,
its agents, contractors, employees, licensees and invitees) or damage to property (including any loss of use thereof) or otherwise arising from or in connection with the occupancy or use of or from any work, installation or thing whatsoever done in,
at or about the Demised Premises arising from and after the execution of this Lease, or resulting from any default by Tenant in the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or from any act, omission or negligence of Tenant or any of
Tenant’s officers, directors, agents, contractors, employees, subtenants, licensees or invitees (individually and collectively, “Owner Claims”). Tenant shall pay, satisfy and discharge any judgments, orders and decrease which
may be recovered against Owner, any lessor, or mortgagee in connection with an Owner Claim within thirty days after the rendering thereof. This indemnity shall be construed so that Tenant shall defend and indemnify Owner at Tenant’s expense,
using counsel satisfactory to Owner, in each instance in which an Owner Claim is made. Tenant shall be responsible for the protection of Owner under this clause as soon as an Owner Claim is made. 
  

 7 








 (c) Owner shall not be responsible or liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting
to Tenant or its property, or property under Tenant’s care and custody, for any reason, including (but not limited to) damage caused by water, steam, leakage, fire, theft, vandalism or the bursting, stoppage or overflow of any drain, water or
sewer pipe, or sprinkler pipe or for any other cause whatsoever other than Owner’s gross negligence. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall look first to any insurance in its favor before making any claim against the other party for recovery for loss or damage resulting from fire or other casualty. Owner and Tenant each hereby releases and
waives all right of recovery against the other or any one claiming through or under each of them by way of subrogation or otherwise. The foregoing release and waiver shall be in force only if both releasors’ insurance policies contain a clause
providing that such a release or waiver shall not invalidate the insurance. Tenant acknowledges that Owns will not carry insurance on Tenant’s furniture and/or furnishings or any fixtures or equipment, improvements, or appurtenances removable
by Tenant and agrees that Owner will not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of any law to the contrary and agrees that the provisions of this Article shall govern and control in lien
thereof. 
 9. Exculpation. 
 Tenant shall look only to Owner’s equity in the Demised Premises for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies for the collection of a judgment (or other judicial process) requiting the payment of money by Owner
in the event of any default or liability by Owner hereunder, and no other property or assets of Owner and no property of any officer, employee, director, shareholder, partner or principal of Owner shall be subject to levy, execution or other
enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies under or with respect to this Lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant hereunder or Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Demised Premises. 
 10. Property Loss, Damage Reimbursement Indemnity. 
 Owner or its agents shall not be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others entrusted to employees of the building, nor for loss of or damage to any property of Tenant by theft or otherwise, nor for any
injury or damage to persons or property resulting from any cause of whatsoever nature, unless caused by or due to the negligence of Owner, its agents, servants or employees. Owner or its agents will not be liable for any such damage caused by other
Tenants or persons in, upon or about said building or caused by operations in construction of any private, public or quasi public work. If at any time any windows of the Demised Premises are temporarily closed, darkened or bricked up (or permanently
closed, darkened or bricked up, if required by law) for any reason whatsoever including, but not limited to Owner’s own acts, Owner shall not be liable for any damage Tenant may sustain thereby and Tenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation therefor nor abatement or diminution of rent nor shall the same release Tenant from its obligations hereunder nor constitute an eviction. Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Owner against and from all liabilities, obligations,
damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses for which Owner shall not be reimbursed by insurance, including reasonable attorneys fees, paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any breach by Tenant, Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees,
invitees, or licensees, of any covenant or condition of this Lease, or the carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of the Tenant, Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, invitees or licensees. Tenant’s liability under this Lease
extends to the acts and omissions of any subtenant, and any agent, contractor, employee, invitee or licensee of any subtenant. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Owner by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon written notice from
Owner, will, at Tenant’s expense, resist or defend such action or proceeding by counsel approved by Owner in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. 
 11. Destruction, Fire and Other Casualty. 
 (a) If the Demised Premises or any part
thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate notice therefor to Owner and this Lease shall continue in full and force and effect except as hereinafter set forth. 
 (b) If the Demised Premises are partially damaged or rendered partially unusable by fire or other casualty, the damages thereto shall be
repaired by and at the expense of Owner and the Base Rent and other items of Additional Rent, until such repair shall be substantially completed, shall be apportioned from the day following the casualty according to the part of the premises which is
usable. 
 (c) If the Demised Premises are totally damaged or rendered wholly unusable by fire or other casualty, then the
Base Rent and other items of Additional Rent as hereinafter expressly provided shall be proportionately paid up to the time of the casualty and thenceforth shall cease until the date when the premises shall have been repaired and restored by Owner
(or sooner reoccupied in part by Tenant then rent shall be apportioned as provided in subsection (b) above), subject to Owner’s right to elect not to restore the same as hereinafter provided. 
 
 (d) If the Demised Premises are rendered wholly unusable or
(whether or not the Demised Premises are damaged in whole or in part) if the building shall be so damaged that Owner shall decide to demolish it or to rebuild it, then, in any of such events, Owner may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice
to Tenant, given within ninety (90) days after such fire or casualty, or thirty (30) days after adjustment of the insurance claim for such fire or casualty, whichever is sooner, specifying a date for the expiration of this Lease, which
date shall not be more than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice, and upon the date specified in such notice the term of this Lease shall expire as fully and completely as if such date were the date set forth above for the
termination of this Lease and Tenant shall forthwith quit, surrender and vacate the Demised Premises without prejudice, however, to Owner’s rights and remedies against Tenant under the Lease provisions in effect prior to such termination, and
any rent owing shall be paid up to such date and any payments of rent made by Tenant which were on account of any period subsequent to such date shall be returned to Tenant. Unless Owner shall serve a 

  

 8 








 
termination notice as provided herein. Owner shall make the repairs and restorations under the conditions of (b) and (c) hereof, with all reasonable
expedition, subject to delays due to adjustment of insurance claims, labor troubles and causes beyond Owner’s control. After any such casualty, Tenant shall cooperate with Owner’s restoration by removing from the premises as promptly as
reasonably possible, all of Tenant’s salvageable inventory and moveable equipment, furniture, and other property. Tenant’s liability for rent shall resume sixty (60) days after written notice from Owner that the premises are
substantially ready for Tenant’s occupancy. 
 (e) Nothing contained hereinabove shall relieve Tenant from liability that
may exist as a result of damage from fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, including Owner’s obligation to restore under subparagraph (b) above, each party shall look first to any insurance in its favor before making any
claim against the other party for recovery for loss or damage resulting from fire or other casualty, to the extent that such insurance is in force and collectible. Owner and Tenant each hereby releases and waives all right of recovery with respect
to subparagraphs (b), (d) and (e) above, against the other or any one claiming through or under each of them by way of subrogation or otherwise. The release and waiver herein referred to shall be deemed to include any loss or damage to the
Demised Premises and/or to any personal property, equipment, trade fixtures, goods and merchandise located therein. The foregoing release and waiver shall be in force only if both releasors’ insurance policies contain a clause providing that
such a release or waiver shall not invalidate the insurance. 
 12. Tenant’s Insurance. 
 (a) Tenant shall obtain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect during the term of this Lease, a policy of commercial general
liability insurance (including, without limitation, insurance covering Tenant’s contractual liability under this Lease), under which Tenant is named as the insured, and Owner, Owner’s managing agent, the present and any future mortgagee of
the Real Property or the Building and/or such other designees specified by Owner from time to time, are named as additional insured. Such policy shall contain a provision that no act or omission of Tenant shall affect or limit the obligation of the
insurance company to pay the amount of any loss sustained. Such policy shall also contain a provision which provides the insurance company will not cancel or refuse to renew the policy, or change in any material way the nature or extent of the
coverage provided by such policy, without first giving Owner at least thirty (30) days written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, which notice shall contain the policy number and the names of the insured and policy holder. The
minimum limits of liability shall be a combined single limit with respect to each occurrence in an amount of not less than $1,000,000 for injury (or death) and damage to property or such greater amounts and other coverages as Owner may, from time to
time, reasonably require. Tenant shall also maintain at its own expense during the term of this Lease a policy of workers’ compensation insurance providing statutory benefits for Tenant’s employer’s liability. Tenant shall provide to
Owner upon execution of this Lease and at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination of any existing policy, a certificate evidencing the effectiveness of the insurance policies required to be maintained hereunder which shall include the
named insured, additional insured, carrier, policy number, limits of liability, effective date, the name of the insurance agent and its telephone number. Tenant shall provide Owner with a complete copy of any such policy upon written request of
Owner. Tenant shall have no right to obtain any of the insurance required hereunder pursuant to a blanket policy covering other properties unless the blanket policy contains an endorsement that names Owner, Owner’s managing agent and/or
designees specified by Owner from time to time, as additional insured, references the Demised Premises, and guarantees a minimum limit available for the Demised Premises equal to the amount of insurance required to be maintained hereunder. Each
policy required hereunder shall contain a clause that the policy and the coverage evidenced thereby shall be primary with respect to any policies carried by Owner, and that any coverage carried by Owner shall be excess insurance. The limits of the
insurance required under this subsection shall not limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease. All insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease shall be effected under valid and enforceable policies issued by
reputable and independent insurers permitted to do business in the State where the Building containing the Demised Premises is located, and rated in Bests Insurance Guide, or any successor thereto (or if there be none, an organization having a
national reputation) as having general policyholder rating approved by Owner, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and a financial rating approved by Owner, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event that Tenant fails to
continuously maintain insurance as required by this subsection, Owner may, at its option and without relieving Tenant of any obligation hereunder, order such insurance and pay for the same at the expense of Tenant. In such event, Tenant shall repay
the amount expended by Owner, with interest thereon, immediately upon Owner’s written demand therefor. The insurance company selected by the Owner shall be approved by Tenant, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. 
 (b) Tenant shall also maintain at its own expense during the term of this Lease a policy against fire and other casualty on an “all
risk” form covering all alterations, construction and other improvements installed within the Demised Premises, whether existing in the Demised Premises on the date hereof or hereinafter installed by or on behalf of Owner or Tenant, and on all
furniture, fixtures equipment, personal property and inventory of Tenant located in the Demised Premises and any property in be care, custody and control of Tenant (fixed or otherwise) sufficient to provide 100% full replacement value of such items,
which policy shall otherwise comply with the provisions of sections (a) and (c) of this Article 12. On any such policy Tenant shall name Owner as a loss payee, as its interest may appear. If the payment of an additional premium is required
for the inclusion of such waiver of subrogation provision, Tenant shall advise Owner of the amount thereof and Landlord shall pay the same or be deemed to have waived the benefit thereof. 
 (c) The parties hereto shall procure an appropriate clause in, or endorsement on, any “all-risk” property insurance covering the
Demised Premises and the Building, including its respective alterations, construction and other improvements as well as personal property, fixtures, furniture, inventory and equipment located thereon or therein, pursuant to which the insurance
companies waive subrogation or consent to a waiver of right of recovery against the other party, and each party hereby agrees that it will not make any claim against or seek to recover from the other or the partners, directors, officers,
shareholders or employees of such party for any loss or damage to its property or the property of others resulting from fire or other hazards covered by such “all-risk” property insurance policies to the extent that such loss or 

  

 9 








 
damage is actually recoverable under such policies exclusive of any deductibles. Such waiver will not apply should any loss or damage result from one of the
parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If the payment of an additional premium is required for the inclusion or such waiver of subrogation provision, each party shall advise the other of the amount of any such additional premiums and
the other party shall pay the same. 
 (d) Owner will not be obligated to repair or replace or carry insurance on the
alterations, construction and other improvements presently existing or hereafter installed within the Demised Premises or on Tenant’s fixtures, furnishings, equipment, personal property or inventory located in the Demised Premises or insurance
against interruption of Tenant’s business. 
 (e) Owner shall maintain casualty insurance in an amount necessary to cover
the full replacement value of the Building and commercial general liability insurance with minimum limits of liability in an amount not less than $2,000,000. 
 13. Subordination, Attornment, Notice to Owner, Lease Modification. 
 (a) This Lease
is subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases and to all mortgages which may now or hereafter affect such leases or the real property of which Demised Premises are a part and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements and extensions of any such underlying leases and mortgages. This clause shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required by any ground or underlying lessor or by any mortgagee, affecting any lease or
the real property of which the Demised Premises are a part. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall from time to time execute promptly any certificate that Owner may request. 
 (b) If at any time or times during the term of this Lease, (i) the Owner of the Demised Premises shall be the holder of a leasehold
estate covering premises of which the Demised Premises forms a part, and if such leasehold estate shall expire or terminate for any reason, or (ii) if the Building, the Land or the Owner’s aforesaid leasehold estate shall now or hereafter
be affected by a mortgage, then the Tenant shall, at the election and upon the demand of any owner of the premises of which the Demised Premises are a part, or of any mortgagee in possession thereof, attorn to any such owner or mortgagee upon the
terms and conditions set forth herein for the remainder of the term of this Lease. The foregoing provisions shall inure to the benefit of any such owner or mortgagee and shall, in the event of any such election and demand, be self-operative without
the necessity of the execution of any further instruments; but the Tenant agrees upon the demand of any such owner or mortgagee to execute, acknowledge and deliver any instrument or instruments confirming such attornment. The foregoing provision
shall not be construed to limit or preclude any other rights such owner or mortgagee may then have under the law or otherwise. 
 (c) In the event of an act or omission or alleged act or omission by Owner which would give Tenant the right to terminate this Lease or to abate the payment of rent or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant shall not exercise any such
right unless (i) Tenant shall first have given written notice of such act or omission to Owner and to the holder of any mortgage on the Building (whose name and address shall previously have been furnished to Tenant) and (ii) neither Owner
nor any mortgagee shall have commenced to cure such act or omission within a reasonable period of time following the giving of such notice (which reasonable period shall in no event be less than the period to which Owner would be entitled under this
Lease or otherwise, after similar notice, to effect such remedy). 
 (d) If, in connection with the procurement, continuation
or renewal of any financing for which the Land or the Building represents collateral in whole or in part, an institutional lender shall request reasonable modifications of this Lease as a condition of such financing, Tenant will not withhold its
consent thereto; provided that such modification does not materially affect any rights of Tenant under this Lease. 
 (e)
Owner shall provide a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in favor of Tenant from the holder of the first mortgage on the Building. In addition, Owner shall use reasonable efforts to provide a subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreement from the holder of each first mortgage or deed of trust which shall encumber the Building after the date of this Lease. 
 14. Eminent Domain, Demolition, or Change of Use. 
 If the whole or any part of the Demised Premises shall be
acquired or condemned by Eminent Domain for any public or quasi public use or purpose, then and in that event, the term of this Lease shall cease and terminate from the date of title vesting in such proceeding and Tenant shall have no claim for the
value of any unexpired term of said Lease and assigns to Owner, Tenant’s entire interest in any such award. Tenant shall have the right to make an independent claim to the condemned authority for the value of Tenant’s moving, expenses and
personal property, trade fixtures and equipment, provided Tenant is entitled pursuant to the terms of this Lease to remove such property, trade fixture and equipment at the end of the term. If Owner shall elect to demolish the Building or to change
its use, then in either such event Owner may by one year’s prior written notice to Tenant terminate this Lease; and the term of this Lease shall cease and terminate from the date set forth in such notice as if such date were the date set forth
herein for the scheduled expiration of the term hereof. 
 15. Subleasing and Assignment. 
 (a) Leaseback by Owner. 
 (i) If Tenant shall desire to sublet or assign this Lease, Tenant shall submit a Tenant’s Notice to Owner. Tenant’s Notice shall be deemed an offer from Tenant to Owner whereby Owner (or Owner’s
designee) may, at its option, terminate this Lease (as to any assignment) or remove the portion of the premises sought to be sublet from 

  

 10 








 
the scope of the Lease (the “Subleased Premises”). Owner’s option may be exercised by Owner by notice to Tenant at any time within
forty-five (45) days after receipt of Tenant’s Notice to Owner; and during such forty-five (45) day period Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet the premises to any person. 
 (ii) If Owner exercise its option to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall end and expire (as to such portion) on the date that such
assignment was to be effective, and the Annual Rent and Additional Rent due hereunder shall be paid and apportioned to such date. If Owner exercises its option to remove the Subleased Premises from this Lease, Tenant’s rent shall be reduced by
a fraction, the numerator of which is the square footage of the Subleased Premises, and the denominator of which is the square footage of the Demised Premises and Tenant shall have no further liability for the Subleased Premises under this Lease.

 (iii) If Owner exercises its option to terminate this Lease or to remove the Subleased Premises from this Lease, Owner
shall be free to and shall have no liability to Tenant if Owner should lease the Demised Premises (or any part thereof) to Tenant’s prospective subtenant or assignee. 
 (iv) If the Subleased Premises are removed from this Lease, Tenant grants to Owner the right to enter onto the Demised Premises and to
construct such demising walls or other facilities as may be needed to physically separate the Subleased Premises from the Demised Premises, or (at Tenant’s option) to effect whatever lesser or additional degree of separation may have been
agreed to between Tenant and the prospective subtenant. 
 (v) If (1) Owner fails to exercise its option under this
subsection (a) and consents to a proposed assignment under subsection (b), and (2) Tenant fails to execute and deliver the assignment or sublease to which Owner consented within ninety (90) days after the giving of such consent, then
Tenant shall again be required to comply with all of the provisions of this subsection (a) before assigning this Lease or subletting the premises. 
 (b) Conditions for Consent to Assignment or Sublease. If Owner does not exercise its option under subsection (a), Owner will not unreasonably withhold or delay consent to an assignment of the Lease or a
Sublease, subject to the following conditions precedent. 
 (i) Tenant shall deliver to Owner, not less than forty-five
(45) days prior to its proposed effective date, a duplicate original of the written instrument of assignment or sublease, in recordable form, containing the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant and an assumption by the
assignee of this Lease (with respect to an assignment) of all obligations to be performed by the Tenant thereunder directly enforceable by Owner, together with sufficient information (certified by an independent accountant) to enable Owner to
evaluate the financial strength, business experience, and creditworthiness of the assignee or subtenant. Owner may require other information with respect thereto in connection with Tenant’s request. 
 (ii) The proposed assignee or subtenant shall be of such financial strength, creditworthiness and business experience at the time of the
assignment (of which Owner shall be the sole judge) as to give reasonable assurance of the successful operation of the business and the payment of all rents and other amounts reserved in this Lease and compliance with all of the terms covenants,
provisions and conditions of this Lease. 
 (iii) No assignment or sublease shall relieve Tenant from any liability hereunder.
The assignment and assumption agreement shall contain a covenant by which each permitted assignee or transferee shall assume and be deemed to have assumed this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of
the rent and Additional Rent and for the due performance of all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be performed for the term of this Lease. 
 (iv) The security deposit shall be increased by one month’s annual rent. 
 (v) assignment or sublease in violation of this Article shall be void and of of no force and effect, except that until any Tenant’s
default is cured, the proposed assignee or subtenant will be deemed to be guaranteeing Tenant’s obligations hereunder. 
 (c) Substituted Guaranties. Notwithstanding part (b)(iii) above, if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership and the principals of Tenant have executed guaranties in the form attached, Owner shall release
those principals from liability under their guaranties after an assignment or sublease of this Lease, provided the principals of the assignee execute replacement guaranties in substantially the same form, and such principals have a net worth
substantially equal to the net worth of existing principals on the date of this Lease or the date of the assignment, whichever is greater. 
 (d) Fees. Tenant shall pay any fees incurred by the Owner, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, a reasonable administrative fee for a credit check and architectural or engineering review fees, in
connection with a proposed sublease or assignment. 
 
 (e) Collection not Waiver or Consent. If this Lease be assigned, or if the Demised Premises or any part thereof be underlet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Owner may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee,
undertenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no such assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, undertenant or
occupant as Tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on the part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Owner to an assignment or underletting shall not in any wise be construed to relieve Tenant from
obtaining the express consent in writing of Owner to any further assignment or underletting. 
  

 11 








 (f) Effect of Transfer of Control. If Tenant is a corporation, a partnership, a
limited partnership, a limited liability company or a limited liability partnership, a transfer of 50% or more in the aggregate (i.e., by any transfer or series of transfers, collectively) of any corporate stock of Tenant, partnership interest,
membership interest or economic interests of Tenant (“Transfer of Control”) so as to effect a change, directly or indirectly, in record or beneficial control of Tenant shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease. 
 16. Electric Current. 
 (a) Tenant agrees that Owner may furnish electricity to Tenant on a “submetering” basis in accordance with subsection (c) or on a “rent inclusion” basis in accordance with subsection (b). Owner reserves the right,
at any time upon thirty (30) days written notice, to change the way it furnishes electricity to Tenant from a rent inclusion basis to a submetering basis or direct service basis, or vice versa. 
 (b) Rent Inclusion. 
 (i) Unless Owner elects to supply electricity to the Demised Premises in accordance with subsection (c) or to have Tenant obtain electricity from the public utility furnishing electricity to the Building pursuant
to the provisions of subsection (d) hereof, Owner shall furnish electric current to the Demised Premises for the use of Tenant for the operation of the lighting fixtures and the electrical receptacles for ordinary office equipment in the
Demised Premises on a “rent inclusion” basis, that is, there shall be no separate charge to Tenant for such electric current by way of measuring such electricity service on any meter. The Base Rent set forth in this Lease includes an
annual charge in the amount of $13,200.00 (the “Electricity Inclusion Factor”). 
 (ii) The Electricity
Inclusion Factor shall be collectible by Owner in the same manner as annual Base Rent. 
 (iii) If Owner discontinues
furnishing electricity to Tenant in accordance with this Article, the annual Base Rent shall be decreased by the annual Electricity Inclusion Factor. 
 (c) Metered Electrical Current. 
 (i) Owner shall have the right, on thirty
(30) days’ notice, to furnish electricity to the Demised Premises, and Tenant shall pay Owner for Tenant’s demand and consumption of electricity, as determined by meters or submeters (installed by Owner, at Owner’s cost, for the
purpose of measuring such consumption). For each kilowatt or other unit of such demand and consumption of electricity as so determined, Tenant shall pay to Owner 105% of the cost to Owner per kilowatt or other unit of the average consumption (energy
and demand) of electricity for the entire building, as reasonably estimated by Owner, for the calendar year in which Tenant’s demand and consumption of electricity occurs, but in no event an amount less than the per-unit cost which Owner would
have had to pay for the same consumption of electricity for the entire building the under the service classification in effect on January 1, 1998 pursuant to which Owner then purchased electric current from the public utility corporation
serving the part of the city in which the building is located. Such cost to Owner shall include without limitation any and all fuel adjustments, taxes, surcharges, and similar items but shall not include any penalties or interest charges incurred by
Owner. Amounts required to be paid by Tenant to Owner under this Article shall be referred to as “Electricity Additional Rent”. 
 (ii) Where more than one meter measures the electricity supplied to Tenant, the electricity rendered through each meter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the provisions hereinabove set forth.
Bills for the Electricity Additional Rent shall be rendered to Tenant at such time as Owner may elect, and Tenant shall pay the amount shown thereon to Owner as Additional Rent within ten (10) days after receipt of such bill. 
 (d) If Owner elects to discontinue furnishing electricity to Tenant, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and shall be
unaffected thereby, except only that from and after the effective date of such discontinuance, Owner shall not be obligated to furnish electricity to Tenant and Tenant shall not be obligated to pay the Electricity Additional Rent. If Owner so
discontinues furnishing electricity to Tenant, Tenant shall use diligent efforts to obtain electric energy directly from the public utility furnishing electric service to the Building. The costs of such service shall be paid by Tenant directly to
such public utility. Such electricity may be furnished to Tenant by means of the existing electrical facilities serving the Demised Premises, at no additional charge, to the extent the same are available, suitable and safe for such purposes as
determined by Owner. All meters and all additional panel boards, feeders, risers, wiring and other conductors and equipment which may be required to obtain electricity shall be installed by Owner at Tenant’s expense. If Tenant shall use and
continue to use diligent efforts to obtain electric energy directly from the public utility, Owner shall not discontinue furnishing electricity to the Demised Premises until such installations have been made and Tenant shall be able to obtain
electricity directly from the public utility. If Tenant is unable to obtain electrical service at a reasonable cost when compared to the cost of such service to other spaces of comparable size and configuration in Norwalk, CT, Tenant shall not have
any further obligation to expend diligent efforts to obtain such service and Owner shall continue to provide electric service either on a rent inclusion basis or by submeter. 
 
 (e) Tenant shall at all times comply with the rules,
regulations, terms and conditions applicable to service, equipment, wiring and requirements of the public utility supplying electricity to the building. Tenant shall not use any electrical equipment which, in Owner’s reasonable judgment, would
exceed the capacity of any of the electrical conductors or equipment in or otherwise servicing the Demised Premises or interfere with the electrical service to other Tenants of the building. In the event that, in Owner’s sole judgment,
Tenant’s electrical requirements necessitate installation of an additional riser, risers or other proper and necessary conductors or equipment, Owner shall so notify Tenant of same. 

  

 12 








 
Within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice, Tenant shall either cease use of such electrical equipment or shall request that additional
electricity capacity (specifying the amount requested) be made available to Tenant. Owner, in Owner’s sole judgment, shall determine whether to make available such additional electrical capacity to Tenant and the amount of such additional
electrical capacity to be made available. If Owner shall agree to make available additional electrical capacity and the same necessitates installation of an additional riser, risers or other proper and necessary conductors or equipment, including,
without limitation; any switchgear, the same shall be installed by Owner. Any such installation shall be made at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and shall be chargeable and collectible as Additional Rent and paid within thirty (30) days
after the rendition of a bill to Tenant therefor. Owner shall not be liable in anyway to Tenant for any failure or defect in the supply or character of electric service furnished to the Demised Premises by reason of any requirement, act or omission
of the utility company serving the building or for any other reason not attributable to the gross negligence of Owner, whether electricity is provided by public or private utility or by any electricity generation system owned and operated by Owner.

 (f) Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not exceed the capacity of existing
feeders to the building or the risers or wiring installation and Tenant may not use any electrical equipment which, in Owner’s opinion, reasonably exercised, will overload such installations or interfere with the use thereof by other Tenants of
the building. The change at any time of the character of electric service shall in no wise make Owner liable or responsible to Tenant, for any loss, damages or expenses which Tenant may sustain. 
 17. Access to Premises. 
 Owner or Owner’s agents shall have the right (but shall not be obligated) to enter the Demised Premises in any emergency at any time, and, at other reasonable times, to examine the same and to make such repairs, replacements and
improvements as Owner may deem necessary and reasonably desirable to the Demised Premises or to any other portion of the building or which Owner may elect to perform. Tenant shall permit Owner to use and maintain and replace pipes and conduits
therein provided they are concealed within the walls, floor, or ceiling. Owner may, during the progress of any work in the Demised Premises, take all necessary materials and equipment into said premises without the same constituting an eviction nor
shall the Tenant be entitled to any abatement of rent while such work is in progress nor to any damages by reason of loss or interruption of business or otherwise. Throughout the term hereof Owner shall have the right to enter the demised premised
at reasonable hours for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers or mortgagees of the building, and during the last six months of the term for the purpose of showing the same to prospective Tenants. If Tenant is not present to open
and permit an entry into the Demised Premises, Owner or Owner’s agents may enter the same whenever such entry may be necessary or permissible by master key or forcibly and provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant’s
property, such entry shall not render Owner or its agents liable therefor, nor in any event shall the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. If during the last month of the term Tenant shall have removed all or substantially all of
Tenant’s property therefrom, Owner may immediately enter, alter, renovate or redecorate the Demised Premises without limitation or abatement of rent, or incurring liability to Tenant for any compensation and such act shall have no effect on
this Lease or Tenant’s obligations hereunder. 
 18. Condition of Premises. 
 Tenant has inspected the Demised Premises and accepts them as is, subject to the riders annexed hereto with respect to Owner’s Work,
if any. Tenant agrees to accept the Demised Premises and the Building subject to violations, whether or not of record. Owner represents that the Building is in compliance with all applicable laws in all material respects. Owner represents that cable
television wiring is present in the Building and that Tenant may connect to it at Tenant’s cost and expense. Owner shall not charge any separate fee or charge for such wiring beyond the cost and expense of connection. 
 19. Bankruptcy. 
 (a)
Anything elsewhere in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, if permitted by applicable law, this Lease may be canceled by Owner by the sending of a written notice to Tenant within a reasonable time after the happening of any one or more of the
following events: (1) the commencement of a case in bankruptcy or under the laws of any state naming Tenant as the debtor; or (2) the making by Tenant of an assignment or any other arrangement for the benefit of creditors under any state
statute. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant, or by reason of any statute or order of court, shall thereafter be entitled to possession of the Demised Premises but shall forthwith quit and surrender the Demised Premises.
If this Lease shall be assigned in accordance with its terms, the provisions of this Article shall be applicable only to the party then owning Tenant’s interest in this Lease. 
 
 (b) Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to (a) hereof,
Owner shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from Tenant as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the difference between the rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired
portion of the term demised and the fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises for the same period. In the computation of such damages the difference between any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination
and the fair and reasonable rental value of the Demised Premises for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of termination at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum. If the Demised Premises or any
part thereof be re-let by the Owner for the unexpired term of this Lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such re-letting shall be
deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part of the whole of the premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Owner to prove for and obtain as liquidated
damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such, damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal
to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to above. 
  

 13 








 (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of the commencement of a case
in bankruptcy under the laws of any State, naming the Owner as the debtor, Owner waives any right to reject this Lease. 
 20.
Default. 
 (a) If Tenant defaults in fulfilling any of the covenants of this Lease other than the covenants for the
payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent; or if the Demised Premises become vacant or deserted; or if any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant’s property whereupon the Demised Premises shall be taken or
occupied by someone other than Tenant; or if this Lease be rejected under §365 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (bankruptcy code); or if Tenant shall fail to move into or take possession of the Demised Premises within thirty (30) days after
the Lease Commencement Date, then, in any one or more of such events, upon Owner serving a written fifteen (15) days’ notice upon Tenant specifying the nature of said default and upon the expiration of said fifteen (15) days, if
Tenant shall have failed to comply with or remedy such default, or if the said default or omission complained of shall be of a nature that the same cannot be completely cured or remedied within said fifteen (15) day period, and if Tenant shall not
have diligently commenced curing such default within such fifteen (15) day period, and shall not thereafter with reasonable diligence and in good faith, proceed to remedy or cure such default, then Owner may serve a written five
(5) days’ notice of cancellation of this Lease upon Tenant, and upon the expiration of said five (5) days this Lease and the term thereunder shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the expiration of such five (5) day
period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this Lease and the term thereof and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the Demised Premises to Owner but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided. 
 (b) If the notice provided for in (a) hereof shall have been given, and the term shall expire as aforesaid; or if Tenant shall make
default in the payment of the rent reserved herein or any item of Additional Rent herein mentioned or any part of either or in making any other payment herein required; then and in any if such events Owner may without notice, re-enter the demised
premised either by force or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise, and the legal representative of Tenant or other occupant of Demised Premises and remove their effects and hold the premises as if this Lease had not
been made, and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end. If Tenant shall make default hereunder prior to the date fixed as the commencement of any renewal or extension of this
Lease, Owner may cancel and terminate such renewal or extension agreement by written notice. 
 (c) If Owner does not receive
any part of the Base Rent or Additional Rent herein reserved or any other sum required to be paid by Tenant within five (5) days after the due date thereof, Tenant shall pay Owner, as Additional Rent, a late charge of 3% of the overdue amount
to pay Owner’s increased costs of collection and administration. 
 21. Remedies of Owner and Waiver of Redemption. 

(a) In case of any default by Tenant, re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess by summary proceedings or otherwise, (i) the rent
shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such re-entry, dispossess and/or expiration, (ii) Owner may re-let the Demised Premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Owner or otherwise, for a term or terms, which
may at Owner’s option be less than or exceed the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease and may grant concessions or free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this Lease, and/or
(iii) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall also pay Owner as liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said Tenant’s covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby reserved
and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount, if any, of the rents collected on account of the lease or leases of the Demised Premises for each month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease. The
failure of Owner to re-let the premises or any part or parts thereof shall not release or affect Tenant’s liability for damages. In computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency such expenses as Owner may incur
in connection with re-letting, such as legal expenses, reasonable attorneys’ fees, brokerage, advertising and for keeping the Demised Premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting. Any such liquidated damages shall be paid in
monthly installments by Tenant on the rent day specified in this Lease and any suit brought to collect the amount of the deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Owner to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month
by a similar proceeding, Owner, in putting the Demised Premises in good order or preparing the same for re-rental may, at Owner’s option, make such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations in the Demised Premises as Owner, in
Owner’s sole judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the purpose of re-letting the Demised Premises, and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from
liability hereunder as aforesaid. Owner shall in no event be liable in any way whatsoever for failure to re-let the Demised Premises, or in the event that the Demised Premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such
re-letting, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if any, of such net rents collected over the sums payable to Tenant to Owner hereunder. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or
provisions hereof. Owner shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for Mention in this Lease of any particular
remedy shall not preclude Owner from any other remedy, in law or in equity. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any
cause, or in the event of Owner obtaining possession of Demised Premises, by reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this Lease, or otherwise. 
 (b) If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation hereunder, Owner, after notice to Tenant, in addition to any other remedy hereunder,
may perform the obligation on behalf of and for the account of Tenant, and the cost of performing such obligation including an administrative fee equal to 10% of the cost to Owner of performing the obligation for the account of Tenant, together with
interest at the maximum legal rate, shall be deemed Additional Rent. 
  

 14 








 (c) Any remedy of Owner provided for hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in
exclusion of, any other remedy available to Owner. 
 (d) In no event shall Tenant be entitled to make, nor shall Tenant make,
any claim, and Tenant hereby waives any claim, for money damages (nor shall Tenant claim any money damages by way of off-set, counterclaim or defense) based upon any claim or assertion by Tenant that Owner has unreasonably withheld or delayed its
consent or approval in those instances, if any under this Lease wherein Owner is required not to unreasonably withhold its approval or consent. Tenant’s sole remedy shall be an action or proceeding to enforce any such provision, or for specific
performance, injunction or declaratory judgment. 
 22. Fees and Expenses. 
 (a) If Tenant shall default under this Lease, and Owner shall prevail in any action or proceeding to enforce this Lease, Tenant shall be
responsible for all of Owner’s costs and expenses of enforcing this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for all Owner’s costs and expenses of successfully defending any claim or action brought by Tenant arising under or in
connection with this Lease. If Owner is required to send any notice of default, demand, or engage in any action or other proceeding for which Owner deems it advisable to retain an attorney, then Tenant shall pay Owner Owner’s reasonable
attorney’s fees incurred in connection with such notice demand, action or proceeding together with Owner’s fees and disbursements. 
 (b) The costs and expenses incurred by reason of Tenant’s default shall be deemed to be Additional Rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant to Owner within 10 days of rendition of any bill or statement to
Tenant therefor. If Tenant’s lease term shall have expired at the time of making of such expenditures or incurring of such obligations, such sums shall be recoverable by Owner as damages. 
 23. Building, Alterations and Management. 
 Owner shall have the right at any time without the same constituting an eviction and without incurring liability to Tenant therefor to change the arrangement and/or location of public entrances, passageways, doors,
doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the building and to change the name, number or designation by which the building may be known. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for diminution of rental value and no
liability on the part of Owner by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or other Tenants making any repairs in the building or any such alterations, additions and improvements. Furthermore, Tenant shall not have
any claim against Owner by reason of Owner’s imposition of such controls of the manner of access to the building by Tenant’s social or business visitors as the Owner may deem necessary for the security of the building and its occupants.

 24. No Representations by Owner. 
 Neither Owner nor Owner’s agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of the building, the land upon which it is erected or the Demised Premises, the rents, leases,
expenses of operation or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the premises except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise except as expressly set forth in the
provisions of this Lease. Tenant has inspected the Building and the Demised Premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition and agrees to take the same “as is” and acknowledges that the taking of possession of the Demised
Premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises and the building of which the same form a part were in good and satisfactory condition at the time such possession was so taken, except as to latent defects. All understanding
and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are merged in this contract, which alone fully completely expresses the agreement between Owner and Tenant and any executory agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify,
discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is sought 
 25. End of Term. 
 (a)
Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Owner the Demised Premises, broom clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and damages which Tenant is not
required to repair as provided elsewhere in this lease excepted, and Tenant shall remove all its property. Tenant’s obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease. If the last day
of the term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, falls on Sunday, this Lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday unless it be a legal holiday in which case it shall expire at noon on the preceding business day. 
 (b) Holdover. Should the Tenant hold over in possession after the expiration or an earlier termination of the original term or of
any extended term of this Lease, such holding over shall not be deemed to extend the term or renew this Lease, nor to establish a month-to-month tenancy (but such holding over thereafter shall continue upon the covenants and conditions set forth in
this Lease), except that the charge for use and occupancy of such holding over (“Use Fee”) for each calendar month or part thereof (even if such part shall be a small fraction of a calendar month) shall be the sum of: 
 (i) 1/12 of the highest annual Base Rent set forth in this Lease, times two; plus 
 (ii) 1/12 of all other items of annual Additional Rent, which annual Additional Rent would have been payable pursuant to this Lease, had
this Lease not expired; plus 
  

 15 








 (iii) Those other items of Additional Rent (not annual Additional Rent) which should have
been payable pursuant to this Lease, had this Lease not expired. 
 Tenant agrees to pay to Owner the Use Fee on the first day of each month for which the
Use Fee is due upon demand in full without setoff. Tenant agrees that said Use Fee is commercially reasonable. 
 26. Quiet Enjoyment.

 Owner covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying the Base Rent and Additional Rent and observing and
performing all the terms, covenants and conditions, on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant may peaceably and quietly enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this Lease and to the
ground leases, underlying leases and mortgages mentioned herein. 
 27. Failure to Give Possession. 
 If Owner is unable to give possession of the Demised Premises on the Lease Commencement Date, because of the holding-over or retention of
possession of any Tenant, undertenant or occupants or if the Demised Premises are located in a building being constructed, because such building has not been sufficiently completed to make the premises ready for occupancy or because of the fact that
a certificate of occupancy has not been procured for any other reason, Owner shall not be subject to any liability for failure to give possession on said date and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall
the same be construed in any wise to extend the term of this Lease, but the rent payable hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for Owner’s inability to obtain possession or complete construction) until after Owner shall
have given Tenant written notice that the Owner is able to deliver possession in condition required by this Lease. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into the possession of the Demised Premises or to occupy premises other than the Demised
Premises prior to the date specified as the Lease Commencement Date. Tenant covenants and agrees that such possession and/or occupancy shall be deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease except the
obligation to pay the amount of fixed Base Rent set forth in this Lease, but if the Demised Premises are occupied prior to the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay the amount of the Electricity Inclusion Factor, prorated for the period so
occupied. 
 28. No Waiver. 
 The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant or condition of this Lease or of any of the Rules or Regulations, set forth or hereafter adopted by
Owner, shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a violation from having all the force and effect of an original violation. The receipt by Owner of Base Rent and/or Additional Rent with knowledge of the breach of any
covenant of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach and no provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Owner unless such waiver be in writing signed by Owner. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner of a lesser
amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an
accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Owner’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease provided. No act or thing done by Owner or Owner’s agents
during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Demised Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid unless in writing signed by Owner. No employee of Owner or Owner’s agent shall have
any power to accept the keys of the Demised Premises prior to the termination of the Lease and the delivery of keys to any such agent or employee shall not operate as a termination of the Lease or a surrender of the Demised Premises. 
 29. Waiver of Trial by Jury. 
 Owner and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in any action proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other (except for personal injury or property damage) on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in
any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant, Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Demised Premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy. 
 30. Inability to Perform. 
 This Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder on part of Tenant to be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or excused because Owner is unable to
fulfill any of its obligations under this Lease or to supply or is unable to make, or is delayed in making any repair, additions, alterations or decorations or is unable to supply or is delaying in supplying any equipment, fixtures, or other
materials if Owner is prevented or delayed from so doing by reason of strike or labor troubles or any cause whatsoever including, but not limited to, government preemption or restrictions or by reason of any rule, order or regulation of any
department or subdivision thereof of any government agency or by reason of the conditions which have been or are affected, either directly or indirectly, by war or other emergency. 
 31. Bills and Notices. 
 A bill, statement or communication other than formal notices required or permitted to be given hereunder, which Owner may desire to give to Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in writing, delivered to Tenant
personally or sent by regular mail addressed to Tenant at the building of which the Demised Premises form a part or left at 

  

 16 








 
the Demised Premises addressed to Tenant at the time of rendition of such bill or statement or communication shall be deemed to be the time when the same is
delivered, mailed or left at the Demised Premises as hereinabove provided.

Lease shall be deemed sufficiently given or served if sent by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed as follows:

 32. Services Provided by Owner. 
 (a) As long as Tenant is not in default under any of the covenants of this Lease beyond the applicable grace period provided in this Lease
for the curing of such defaults, Owner shall provide: (i) necessary elevator facilities on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and have one elevator subject to call at all other times; (ii) heat to the Demised Premises when and as requited by
law, on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.; (iii) water for ordinary lavatory purposes, but if Tenant uses or consumes water for any other purposes or in unusual quantities (of which fact Owner be the sole

said meter as Additional Rent as and when bills are rendered; (iv) cleaning service for the Demised Premises as described in Exhibit C appended to this Lease, on business days at Owner’s expense provided that the same are kept in order by
Tenant. If Tenant desires to obtain supplementary cleaning services, Tenant agrees that only persons approved by Owner shall be permitted to enter the Demised Premises or the Building for such purpose; (v) air-conditioning/cooling will be
furnished to Tenant from May 15th through September 30th on business days (Monday through Fridays, holidays excepted) from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and ventilation win be

shall maintain a 24-hour card access system at the front and rear entrance to the Building, with a central station monitoring system and 24-hour surveillance by video cameras. 
 (b) After Hours and Additional Services. The Base Rent does not include any charge to Tenant for the furnishing of heat,
air-conditioning or mechanical ventilation to the Demised Premises during periods other than the hours and days set forth in section (a) of this Article for the furnishing of such services (referred to as “Overtime Periods”).
Accordingly, if Owner shall furnish any heat, air-conditioning or ventilation to the Demised Premises during Overtime Periods, then Tenant shall pay Owner additional rent for such services at the standard rates then fixed by the Owner or, if no such
rates are then fixed, at reasonable rates. The services referred to in this Article shall be furnished to Tenant upon reasonable advance request by Tenant. Alternatively, Owner shall, at Owner’s election, install controls which permit Tenant to
regulate when such overtime services are furnished. All of the services referred to in this Article are conveniences and are not and shall not be deemed to be appurtenances to the Demised Premises, and the failure of Owner to furnish any of such
services shall not constitute or give rise to any claim of 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 its obligations under this Lease, or impose
any liability upon Owner or its agents by reason of inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, or injury to or interruption of Tenant’s business or otherwise. 
 (c) Owner reserves the right to suspend operation of the heating system, the air conditioning system, the ventilation system, elevator
service, the plumbing system, electric power systems, cleaning or other services (collectively the Building Systems) when Owner in its judgment deems it necessary by reason of accident or emergency, or the making the necessary repairs, and such
suspension may continue until such repairs have been completed, and Tenant agrees that Owner shall not thereby be responsible in any way to Tenant or be subject to any claim by Tenant therefor and that the same shall not entitle Tenant to any
compensation or to any abatement or diminution of rent, or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease or impose any liability upon Owner or its agents by reason of any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, or injury to or
interruption of Tenant’s business or otherwise. Tenant further agrees that Owner shall have no responsibility to Tenant or liability for failure to operate the Building Systems when the operation is prevented by force majeure or failure
of equipment or electric current, steam or water or other suitable power supply. 
 (d) Tenant shall have the right, without
charge, to place a satellite dish or antenna on the roof of the Building. The design and other specifications of such equipment shall be subject to Owner’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The location
in which such equipment may be placed on the roof shall be 

  

 17 








 
subject to Owner’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such equipment shall at all times be operated in
compliance with all applicable laws. Owner makes no representation that any license or permit which may be required for such equipment or its operation or its placement on the roof of the Building will or can be obtained. In no event may any such
equipment or its placement or operation cause any interference with any equipment belonging to Owner or to any other tenant or occupant of the Building; in the event any such interference shall occur, Owner, in addition to its other legal rights and
remedies, may immediately require Tenant to cease operation of such equipment, or any part of it, until such time as it is reasonably determined that such equipment, or such other equipment as Tenant may desire to utilize in its place, may operate
without such interference. At the expiration of the term of this Lease, or upon Tenant’s sooner ceasing to use such equipment, Tenant shall remove such equipment and repair any damage caused by its removal.

whether such damages or deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Owner. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Lease, the
security shall be returned to Tenant after the date fixed as the end of this Lease and after delivery of entire possession of the Demised Premises to Owner. In the event of a sale of the land and building or leasing of the building, of which the
Demised Premises form a part, Owner shall have the right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee and Owner shall thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such security; and Tenant agrees to look to the new Owner
solely for the return of said security, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security to a new Owner. Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or
encumber the monies deposited herein as security and that neither Owner nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. 
 (b) The Security Deposit shall be increased by Tenant, upon any increase in the Base Rent, so that Owner will always maintain on deposit

ground lease to which this Lease is or may become subordinate shall be responsible for the Security Deposit, unless such mortgagee or holder of such deed of trust or lessor shall have actually received such Security Deposit. 
 38. Estoppel Certificate. 
 At any time from time to time, within ten (10) days after Owner shall request the same, Tenant will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Owner and to such mortgagee or other party as may be designated by Owner, a certificate in form
reasonably acceptable to Owner certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or that same is in full force and effect as modified, listing the instruments of modification), the dates to which the Base Rent, Additional Rent
and other charges have been paid, and whether or not to the best knowledge of Tenant, Owner is in default hereunder (and if so, specifying the notice of the default), it being intended that any such statement being delivered pursuant to this Article
may be relied on by a prospective purchaser or mortgagee of Owner’s interest. In the event that Tenant fails to provide such certificate within ten (10) days after request therefor by Owner, Tenant shall be deemed to have authorized Owner
to respond to Owner’s request as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact on Tenant’s behalf and Owner is hereby authorized to so certify and deliver such certificate. 
 39. Successors and Assigns.

insurance, operating expenses, late charges, and costs of enforcement of this Lease (including legal fees, witness fees and disbursements), shall be deemed Additional Rent. Owner shall have the same rights and remedies with respect to collection of
Additional Rent as any other item of rent under the Lease. Tenant’s obligation to pay any item of Additional Rent that accrues during the term of this Lease shall survive the expiration of the term. 
 42. General. 
 (a) Any
restriction on any acts of Tenant shall also restrict Tenant from permitting such act to be performed.

requirement is imposed on any party, it shall be deemed that the party shall be required to perform the requirement at its own expense unless it is specifically otherwise provided. 
 (c) This Lease is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms
thereof, all negotiations, considerations and representations between the parties having been incorporated herein. No course of prior dealings between the parties or their officers, employees, agents or affiliates shall be relevant or admissible to
supplement, explain or vary any of the terms of this Lease. Acceptance of, or acquiescence in, a course of performance rendered under this or any prior agreement between the parties or their affiliates shall not be relevant or admissible to
determine the meaning of any of the terms of this Lease. No representations, understandings or agreements have been made or relied upon in the making of this Lease other than those specifically set forth herein. This Lease can be modified only by a
writing signed by the party against whom the modification is enforceable. 
 (d) If any term or provision, or any portion
thereof, of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances, other than
those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 (e) Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed so as to confer upon any other party the rights of a third party beneficiary except
rights contained herein for the benefit of a mortgagee.

behalf of Tenant hereby covenant and warrant that Tenant is a duly constituted corporation qualified to do business in Connecticut; all Tenant’s franchise and corporate taxes have been paid to date; all future forms, reports, fees and other
documents necessary for Tenant to comply with applicable laws will be filed by Tenant when due; and such persons are duly authorized by the board of directors of such corporation to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the corporation.

 (g) This Lease and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Connecticut. Tenant consents to jurisdiction and venue in the State of Connecticut, Fairfield County.

shall not furnish any particular items(s) of work or service (which would constitute an Operating Expense hereunder) to portions of the Building (including without limitation the Demised Premises) due to the feet that such portions are not occupied
or leased, or because such item of work or service is not required or desired by a Tenant (including, without limitation, Tenant), or such Tenant is itself obtaining and providing such item of work of service, or for any other reasons, then, for the
purposes of computing the Additional Rent payable hereunder pursuant to subsections (i) and (ii) of Section (b) of this Article, the amount of the expenses for such item(s) for

Operating Year, commencing the year 2007 and monthly thereafter throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Tenant’s Projected Share of increase. If, however, Owner shall furnish any such estimate for an Operating Year subsequent to
the commencement thereof, then (a) until the first day of the month following the month in which such estimate is furnished to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Owner on the first day of each month an amount equal to the monthly sum payable by Tenant
to Owner under this Section in respect of the last month of the preceding Operating Year; (b) promptly after such estimate is furnished to Tenant, shall give notice to Tenant stating whether the installments of Tenant’s Projected Share of
Increase previously made for such Operating Year were greater or less than the installments of Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase to be made for such Operating Year in accordance with such estimate, and (1) if there shall be a
deficiency, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, or (2) if there shall have been an overpayment, Owner shall promptly either refund to Tenant the amount thereof or permit Tenant to credit the amount thereof
against subsequent payments under this Article; and (c) on the first day of the month following the month in which such estimate is furnished to Tenant, and monthly thereafter throughout the remainder of such Operating Year, Tenant shall pay to
Owner an amount equal to Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase as shown on such estimate. 
 (ii) Within 180 days after
the expiration of any Operating Year, Owner shall furnish Tenant an Escalation Statement setting forth Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, with respect to the Operating Expenses incurred for such Operating Year. 
 (iii) If the Escalation Statement furnished by Owner to Tenant pursuant to subsection (b)(ii) above at the end of the then Operating Year
shall indicate that Tenant’s Projected Share of Increase exceeds Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase, Owner shall forthwith either (1) pay the amount of excess directly to Tenant concurrently with the notice or (2) permit
Tenant to credit the amount of such excess against the subsequent payments of rent due hereunder; if such statement furnished by Owner to Tenant hereunder shall indicate that Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Increase exceeds Tenant’s
Projected Share of Increase for the then Operating Year, Tenant shall forthwith pay the amount of such excess to Owner. 
 (c)
In the event that the Lease Commencement Date shall be other than the first day of an Operating Year or the date of the expiration or other termination of this Lease shall be a day other than the last day of an Operating Year, then, in such event,
in applying the provisions of this Article with respect to any Operating Year in which such event shall have occurred, appropriate adjustments shall be made to reflect the occurrence of such event on a basis consistent with the principles underlying
the provisions of this Article taking into consideration the portion of such Operating Year which shall have elapsed after the term hereof commences in the case of the Commencement Date, and prior to the date of such expiration or termination in the
case of the Expiration Date or other termination. 
 (d) Payments shall be made pursuant to this Article notwithstanding the
fact that an Escalation Statement is furnished to Tenant after the expiration of the term of this Lease.

failure to render an Escalation Statement with respect to any Operating Year shall not prejudice Owner’s right thereafter to render an Escalation Statement with respect thereto or with respect to any subsequent Operating Year. Tenant’s
obligation to pay escalation charges for an Operating Year during the term of this Lease shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 
 
 (f) Each Escalation Statement shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless within 30 days after receipt of such Escalation
Statement, Tenant shall notify Owner that it disputes the correctness of such Escalation Statement, specifying the particular respects in which such Escalation Statement is claimed to be incorrect (an “Expense Dispute Notice”). In
the event that Owner and Tenant, and their agents, are unable to resolve any dispute within 30 days after receipt by Owner of an Expense Dispute Notice, they shall submit the matter to arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (the
“AAA”)(commercial real estate dispute rules) or other dispute resolution medium they can agree

in the method of taxation, any franchise, income, profit or other tax or payment shall be levied against the Owner which is in whole or part in substitution for or in lieu of any tax which would otherwise constitute a Real Estate Tax, such tax or
payment shall be deemed to be a Real Estate Tax for the purposes hereof.

 (c) Commencing July 1, 2006 through the end of the term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay monthly installments on account of its Real Estate

July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007 over the Base Year. Thereafter, Tenant’s installments shall be one-twelfth (1/12) of the increase in Real Estate Taxes for such tax year over the Base Year. 
 (d) If Owner should incur any expenses in connection with Owner’s successful endeavor to reduce the assessed valuation or to reduce
any bill for work done or services rendered, assessment or levy, water or sewer charges, thereby reducing Tenant’s share of increased Real Estate Taxes as set out above in section (b) of this Article, Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent

 (e) A copy of a Real Estate Tax bill, bill for assessment or levy, bill from Owner for expenses of any proceeding to obtain a Real Estate Tax reduction, or a letter from Owner’s mortgagee attesting to any such
amount shall be conclusive evidence of the amount of any Real Estate Tax or expense of obtaining a reduction.
