	1.	PREMISES, BUILDING, PROJECT, AND COMMON AREAS 

 1.1 Premises, Building, Project and
Common Areas. 
 1.1.1 The Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the
premises set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary (the “Premises”). The outline of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and each floor or floors of the Premises has the number of rentable
square feet as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary. The parties hereto agree that the lease of the Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and Tenant covenants as a material part of the
consideration for this Lease to keep and perform each and all of such terms, covenants and conditions by it to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the
purpose of Exhibit C is to show the approximate location of the Premises in the “Building,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below, only, and such Exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement,
representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the “Common Areas,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.3, below, or the elements thereof or of the
access ways to the Premises or the “Project,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below. Tenant shall accept the Premises in its presently existing “as-is” condition and Landlord shall not be obligated to
provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease or in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D. Landlord shall deliver the
Premises to Tenant with the plumbing, electrical systems, fire sprinkler system, lighting, air conditioning and heating systems and all other building systems serving the Premises in good operating condition and repair. Any failure of Phase 1 to be
in such condition on delivery shall be remedied by Landlord at Landlord’s sole cost and expense provided that Tenant notifies Landlord of such failure within ninety (90) days following the Phase 1 Rent Commencement Date. Any failure of Phase 2
to be in such condition on delivery shall be remedied by Landlord at Landlord’s sole cost and expense provided that Tenant notifies Landlord of such failure within ninety (90) days following the Phase 2 Rent Commencement Date. Landlord’s
construction of the Tenant Improvements after the Rent Commencement Date shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent payable pursuant to the Lease. Landlord shall have no responsibility or
for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from such construction work in the Premises, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for
loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant’s personal property or improvements resulting from such construction work or Landlord’s actions in connection with such construction work, or for any inconvenience or
annoyance occasioned by such construction work or Landlord’s actions in connection with such construction work. Landlord shall commence construction of the Tenant Improvements promptly following Lease execution and receipt of all necessary
permits and after the Termination Date (as defined in Section 38) unless Tenant waives its Termination Right prior to such date, and shall thereafter work diligently to complete such work in as timely a fashion as is commercially reasonable. The
Premises shall exclude Common Areas, including without limitation exterior faces of exterior walls, the entry, vestibules and main lobby of the Building, elevator lobbies and common lavatories, the common stairways and stairwells, elevators and
elevator wells, boiler room, sprinkler rooms, elevator rooms, mechanical rooms, loading and receiving areas, electric and telephone closets, janitor closets, and pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant fixtures and equipment serving
exclusively or in common with other parts of the Building. 
 1.1.2 The Building and The Project. The Premises are a part of
the building set forth in Section 2.1 of the Summary (the “Building”). The term “Project,” as used in this Lease, shall mean (i) the Building and the Common Areas, and (ii) the land (which is improved with
landscaping, parking facilities and other improvements) upon which the Building and the Common Areas are located. 
 1.1.3 Common
Areas. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the rules and regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided,
from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the
exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are 

  
 -5- 

 
collectively referred to herein as the “Common Areas”). The Common Areas shall consist of the “Project Common Areas” and the “Building Common
Areas.” The term “Project Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord or areas within the Project that the occupants of the Building are permitted to utilize
pursuant to a recorded declaration and which areas shall be maintained in accordance with the declaration. The term “Building Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the
Building designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to such rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may
make from time to time. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that, in connection therewith, Landlord shall perform such
closures, alterations, additions or changes in a commercially reasonable manner and, in connection therewith, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any material interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises. 

1.2 Stipulation of Rentable Square Feet of Premises. For purposes of this Lease, “rentable square feet” of the
Premises shall be deemed as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary. 
  

	2.	LEASE TERM; OPTION TERM 

 2.1 Lease Term. The terms and provisions of this
Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease. The term of this Lease (the “Lease Term”) shall be as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Summary, shall commence on the date set forth in Section 3.2 of the Summary
(the “Lease Commencement Date”), and shall terminate on the date set forth in Section 3.4 of the Summary (the “Lease Expiration Date”) unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For
purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term. The First Lease Year shall commence on the Rent Commencement Date for Phase 1. At any time during the Lease
Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice in the form as set forth in Exhibit B, attached hereto, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which, if correct, Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within
ten (10) business days of receipt thereof. 
 2.2 Option Term. 

2.2.1 Option Right. Landlord hereby grants to the originally named Tenant herein (“Original Tenant”), and its
“Permitted Assignees”, as that term is defined in Section 14.8, below, one (1) option to extend the Lease Term for a period of five (5) years (the “Option Term”), which option shall be irrevocably exercised only by
written notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord not more than fifteen (15) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, provided that the following conditions (the “Option Conditions”) are
satisfied: (i) as of the date of delivery of such notice, Tenant is not in default under this Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period; (ii) as of the end of the Lease Term, Tenant is not in default under this Lease,
after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period; (iii) Tenant has not previously been in monetary default under this Lease, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, more than twice in any Lease Year; and (iv) the
Lease then remains in full force and effect and Original Tenant or a Permitted Assignee occupies the entire Premises at the time the option to extend is exercised and as of the commencement of the Option Term. Landlord may, at Landlord’s
option, exercised in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, waive any of the Option Conditions in which case the option, if otherwise properly exercised by Tenant, shall remain in full force and effect. Upon the proper exercise of such option
to extend, and provided that Tenant satisfies all of the Option Conditions (except those, if any, which are waived by Landlord), the Lease Term, as it applies to the Premises, shall be extended for a period of five (5) years. The rights contained in
this Section 2.2 shall be personal to Original Tenant and any Permitted Assignees, and may be exercised by Original Tenant or such Permitted Assignees (and not by any assignee, sublessee or other “Transferee,” as that term is
defined in Section 14.1 of this Lease, of Tenant’s interest in this Lease). 
 2.2.2 Option Rent. The annual Rent
payable by Tenant during the Option Term (the “Option Rent”) shall be equal to the “Fair Rental Value,” as that term is defined below, for the Premises as of the commencement date of the Option Term. The “Fair
Rental Value,” as used in this Lease, shall be equal to the annual rent per rentable square foot (including additional rent and considering any “base year” or “expense stop” applicable thereto), including all
escalations, at which tenants (pursuant to leases consummated within the eleven (11) month period ending 30 days before the Lease Expiration Date), are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space

  
 -6- 

 
which is not significantly greater or smaller in size than the subject space, for a comparable lease term, in an arm’s length transaction, which comparable space is located in the
“Comparable Buildings,” as that term is defined in this Section 2.2.2, below (transactions satisfying the foregoing criteria shall be known as the “Comparable Transactions”), taking into consideration the following
concessions (the “Concessions”): (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable
space, and taking into account the value, if any, of the existing improvements in the subject space, such value to be based upon the age, condition, design, quality of finishes and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same can be
utilized by a general office user other than Tenant; and (c) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided, however, that in calculating the Fair Rental Value, no consideration
shall be given to (i) the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage commission in connection with Tenant’s exercise of its right to extend the Lease Term, or the fact that landlords are or are not paying real
estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space, and (ii) any period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable transactions in connection with the design, permitting and construction of tenant improvements
in such comparable spaces. The Fair Rental Value shall additionally include a determination as to whether, and if so to what extent, Tenant must provide Landlord with financial security, such as a letter of credit or guaranty, for Tenant’s Rent
obligations in connection with Tenant’s lease of the Premises during the Option Term. Such determination shall be made by reviewing the extent of financial security then generally being imposed in Comparable Transactions from tenants of
comparable financial condition and credit history to the then existing financial condition and credit history of Tenant (with appropriate adjustments to account for differences in the then-existing financial condition of Tenant and such other
tenants). The Concessions (A) shall be reflected in the effective rental rate (which effective rental rate shall take into consideration the total dollar value of such Concessions as amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable term of the
Comparable Transaction (in which case such Concessions evidenced in the effective rental rate shall not be granted to Tenant)) payable by Tenant, or (B) at Landlord’s election, all such Concessions shall be granted to Tenant in kind. The term
“Comparable Buildings” shall mean the Building and those other class A life sciences buildings which are comparable to the Building in terms of age (based upon the date of completion of construction or major renovation of to the
building), quality of construction, level of services and amenities, size and appearance, and are located in Durham, North Carolina and the surrounding commercial area. 

2.2.3 Determination of Option Rent. In the event Tenant timely and appropriately exercises an option to extend the Lease Term,
Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent 30 days prior to the Lease Expiration Date. If Tenant, on or before the date which is ten (10) days following the date upon which Tenant receives Landlord’s
determination of the Option Rent, in good faith objects to Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent, then Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Option Rent using their best good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to
reach agreement within ten (10) days following Tenant’s objection to the Option Rent (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then each party shall make a separate determination of the Option Rent, as the case may be, within five (5)
days, and such determinations shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Sections 2.2.3.1 through 2.2.3.7, below. If Tenant fails to object to Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent within the time period set forth
herein, then Tenant shall be deemed to have objected to Landlord’s determination of Option Rent. 
 2.2.3.1 Landlord and Tenant shall
each appoint one arbitrator who shall be, at the option of the appointing party, a real estate broker, appraiser or attorney who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing or appraisal,
as the case may be, of other class A life sciences buildings located in the Durham, North Carolina market area. The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Option
Rent is the closest to the actual Option Rent, taking into account the requirements of Section 2.2.2 of this Lease, as determined by the arbitrators. Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement
Date. Landlord and Tenant may consult with their selected arbitrators prior to appointment and may select an arbitrator who is favorable to their respective positions. The arbitrators so selected by Landlord and Tenant shall be deemed
“Advocate Arbitrators.” 
 2.2.3.2 The two (2) Advocate Arbitrators so appointed shall be specifically required pursuant
to an engagement letter within ten (10) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed Advocate Arbitrator to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator (“Neutral Arbitrator”) who shall be qualified under the same criteria
set forth hereinabove for qualification of the two Advocate Arbitrators, except that neither the Landlord or 

  
 -7- 

 
Tenant or either parties’ Advocate Arbitrator may, directly or indirectly, consult with the Neutral Arbitrator prior or subsequent to his or her appearance. The Neutral Arbitrator shall be
retained via an engagement letter jointly prepared by Landlord’s counsel and Tenant’s counsel. 
 2.2.3.3 The three arbitrators
shall, within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the Neutral Arbitrator, reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Option Rent, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. 

2.2.3.4 The decision of the majority of the three arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. 

2.2.3.5 If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an Advocate Arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the Outside Agreement Date, then
either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Durham County to appoint such Advocate Arbitrator subject to the criteria in Section 2.2.3.1 of this Lease, or if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any
judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such Advocate Arbitrator. 
 2.2.3.6 If the two (2) Advocate Arbitrators fail to
agree upon and appoint the Neutral Arbitrator, then either party may petition the presiding judge of the Superior Court of Durham County to appoint the Neutral Arbitrator, subject to criteria in Section 2.2.3.1 2 of this Lease, or
if he or she refuses to act, either party may petition any judge having jurisdiction over the parties to appoint such arbitrator. 

2.2.3.7 The cost of the arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally. 

2.2.3.8 In the event that the Option Rent shall not have been determined pursuant to the terms hereof prior to the commencement of the Option
Term, Tenant shall be required to pay the Option Rent initially provided by Landlord to Tenant, and upon the final determination of the Option Rent, the payments made by Tenant shall be reconciled with the actual amounts of Option Rent due, and the
appropriate party shall make any corresponding payment to the other party. 
  

	3.	BASE RENT 

 3.1 Tenant shall pay, without prior notice or demand, to Landlord or
Landlord’s agent at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord’s option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for
private or public debts in the United States of America, base rent (“Base Rent”) as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary in advance on or
before the first day of each and every calendar month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever. If any Rent payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first day of such
month or if any payment of Rent is for a period which is shorter than one month, the Rent for any fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the date such payment is due to the end of such calendar month or to the end of the
Lease Term at a rate per day which is equal to 1/365 of the applicable annual Rent. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis. Base
Rent and Additional Rent shall together be denominated “Rent.” Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall not be discharged or otherwise affected by any law or regulation now or hereafter applicable
to the Premises, or any other restriction on Tenant’s use, or (except as expressly provided herein) any casualty or taking, or any failure by Landlord to perform any covenant contained herein, or any other occurrence; and Tenant waives all
rights now or hereafter existing to terminate or cancel this Lease or quit or surrender the Premises or any part thereof, or to assert any defense in the nature of constructive eviction to any action seeking to recover rent. Tenant’s covenants
contained herein are independent and not dependent, and Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any statute or judicial law to the contrary.

required to keep the Common Areas in the same good order or condition as on the Commencement Date, or (D) that are required under any governmental law or regulation that was not in force or effect as of the Commencement Date; provided, however, that
any capital expenditure shall be amortized (including reasonable interest on the amortized

 -11- 

 If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service (the cost of which, if performed by
Landlord, would be included in Operating Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord, Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the
additional Operating Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense furnished such work or service to 

such tenant. If the Project is not at least one hundred percent (100%) occupied during all or a portion of any Expense Year, Landlord shall make an appropriate
adjustment to the components of Operating Expenses for such year to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would have been incurred had the Project been one hundred percent (100%) occupied; and the amount so determined shall be deemed to
have been the amount of Operating Expenses for such year. 
 4.2.5 Taxes. 

4.2.5.1 “Tax Expenses” shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, charges or
other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, general and special assessments, transit taxes, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of
rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, unless required to be paid by Tenant, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances,
furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Project, or any portion thereof), which shall be paid or accrued during any Expense Year (without regard to any different fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority)
because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project, or any portion thereof. 
 4.2.5.2 Tax Expenses shall
include, without limitation: (i) Any tax on the rent, right to rent or other income from the Project, or any portion thereof, or as against the business of leasing the Project, or any portion thereof; (ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in
addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax; (iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area

maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof; and (iv) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an
interest or an estate in the Premises or the improvements thereon. 
 4.2.5.3 Any costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees) incurred in attempting to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax Expenses in the Expense Year such expenses are incurred for any protest that Tenant requests and for
any protest Landlord pursues without Tenant’s consent then only if Landlord is successful in reducing Tax Expenses or avoiding an increase in Tax Expenses. Tax refunds shall be credited against Tax Expenses and refunded to Tenant regardless of
when received, based on the Expense Year to which the refund is applicable, provided that in no event shall the amount to be refunded to Tenant for any such Expense Year exceed the total amount paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under this Article 4
for such Expense Year. The foregoing sentence shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Tax Expenses for any period during the Lease Term or any extension thereof are increased after payment thereof for any reason,
including, without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or municipal authorities, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand Tenant’s Share of any such increased Tax Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section 4.2.5, there shall be excluded from Tax Expenses (i) all excess profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes, transfer tax or fee, federal and
state income taxes, and other taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord’s general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii) any items included as Operating Expenses, and (iii) any
items paid by Tenant under Section 4.5 of this Lease. 
 4.2.6 “Tenant’s Share” shall mean the percentage set
forth in Section 7 of the Summary. 
 4.3 Intentionally omitted. 

  
 -12- 

 4.4 Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent. In the event Tenant extends the
Lease Term, pursuant to Section 2.2, above, or otherwise, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 4.4.1, below, and as Additional Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for each Expense Year. 

4.4.1 Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant. Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant within six (6) months
following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the “Statement”) which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct
Expenses. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year,
less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as “Estimated Direct Expenses,” as that term is defined in Section 4.4.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant’s Share
of Direct Expenses, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant’s overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant
from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this
Lease terminates, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amount within thirty (30) days, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check
payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment. The provisions of this Section 4.4.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be
responsible for Tenant’s Share of any Direct Expenses attributable to any Expense Year which are first billed to Tenant more than two (2) calendar years after the earlier of the expiration of the applicable Expense Year or the Lease Expiration
Date, provided that in any event Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility companies at any time following the Lease Expiration Date which are attributable to
any Expense Year (provided that Landlord delivers Tenant a bill for such amounts within two (2) years following Landlord’s receipt of the bill therefor). 

4.4.2 Statement of Estimated Direct Expenses. In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate
statement (the “Estimate Statement”) which shall set forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate (the “Estimate”) of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the
estimated Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses (the “Estimated Direct Expenses”). The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to
collect any Estimated Direct Expenses under this Article 4, nor shall Landlord be prohibited from revising any Estimate Statement or Estimated Direct Expenses theretofore delivered to the extent necessary. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay, with
its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.4.2). Such fraction shall have as its numerator
the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at
any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Direct Expenses set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant. 

4.4.3 Audit Right. In the event the controllable Operating Expenses increase by more than five percent (5%) in any given Lease
Year (as measured against the actual Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding Lease Year) (controllable Operating Expenses shall not include utilities, insurance, taxes, assessments, snow and ice removal and any other expenses which are set
or determined by a governmental entity or other third party or are otherwise beyond Landlord’s reasonable control including minimum wage increases) Tenant may audit Landlord’s records and all information pertaining to Operating Expenses in
order to verify the accuracy of Landlord’s determination of the Tenant’s Share provided that: 
 (i) Tenant must give notice to
Landlord of its election to undertake said audit within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the statement of the actual amount of Tenant’s Share for the preceding calendar year from Landlord; 

(ii) Such audit will be conducted only during regular business hours at the office where Landlord maintains records of Operating Expenses and
only after Tenant gives Landlord fourteen (14) days’ advance written notice; 

  
 -13- 

 (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of the results of such audit within fifteen (15)
days of its receipt by Tenant and no such audit shall be conducted if any other tenant of the Building has conducted an independent audit for the time period Tenant intends to audit and Landlord furnishes to Tenant a copy of such audit; 

(iv) No audit shall be conducted at any time that Tenant is in default of any of the terms of this Lease; 

(v) No subtenant shall have any right to conduct an audit and no assignee shall conduct an audit for any period during which such assignee was
not in possession of the Premises; 
 (vi) Such audit review by Tenant shall not postpone or alter the liability and obligation of Tenant to
pay any amounts due under the terms of this Lease; and 
 (vii) Such audit shall be conducted by an independent, reputable accounting firm
which is not being compensated by Tenant on a contingency fee basis. 
 Within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of such audit,
Tenant must give notice to Landlord of any disputed amounts and identify all items being contested in Landlord’s statement of the Tenant Share. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree upon any such item as to which Tenant shall have given such
notice, the dispute shall be resolved by an audit by a major accounting firm mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant and the cost of said joint audit shall be paid by the non-prevailing party; provided however, Tenant will not be considered the
“prevailing party” for purposes of this paragraph unless the accounting firm’s audit reveals an overcharge by Landlord in excess of five percent (5%) of the Tenant Share for the particular calendar year in question. 

Any adjustment required as a result of any audit shall be made by adjustment to the Tenant Share so that said adjustment is fully made (or
recovered) in equal installments over the twelve (12) month period immediately following the final resolution of said audit. 
 4.5
Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal
property located in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property
is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such equipment, furniture, fixtures or any other personal property and if Landlord pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless
of the validity thereof but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, as the case
may be. 
  

	5.	USE OF PREMISES 

 5.1 Permitted Use. Tenant shall use the Premises solely
for the Permitted Use set forth in Section 8 of the Summary and Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose or purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be
withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. 
 5.2 Prohibited Uses. Tenant further covenants and agrees that Tenant shall not
use, or suffer or permit any person or persons to use, the Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose contrary to the provisions of the Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit E, attached hereto, or in violation of the
laws of the United States of America, the State of North Carolina, or the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county 

  
 -14- 

 
governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project, including, without limitation, any such laws, ordinances, regulations or requirements relating to hazardous
materials or substances, as those terms are defined by applicable laws now or hereafter in effect, or any Underlying Documents. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way damage the reputation of
the Project or obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure or annoy them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain
or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall comply with, and Tenant’s rights and obligations under the Lease and Tenant’s use of the Premises shall be subject and subordinate to, all recorded easements, covenants,
conditions, and restrictions now or hereafter affecting the Project. 
 5.3 Intentionally Deleted. 

5.4 Hazardous Materials. 

5.4.1 Tenant’s Obligations. 

5.4.1.1 Prohibitions. As a material inducement to Landlord to enter into this Lease with Tenant, Tenant has fully and
accurately completed Landlord’s Pre-Leasing Environmental Exposure Questionnaire (the “Environmental Questionnaire”), which is attached as Exhibit G. Tenant hereby represents, warrants and covenants that except
for those chemicals or materials, and their respective quantities, specifically listed on the Environmental Questionnaire, neither Tenant nor Tenant’s employees, contractors and subcontractors of any tier, entities with a contractual
relationship with Tenant (other than Landlord), or any entity acting as an agent or sub-agent of Tenant (collectively, “Tenant’s Agents”) will produce, use, store or generate any “Hazardous Materials,” as that term is

conditions required by this Lease. Upon Landlord’s approval of the Clean-up plan, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, without limitation on any rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease, immediately implement such plan
with a consultant reasonably acceptable to Landlord and proceed to Clean-Up Hazardous Materials in accordance with all applicable laws and as required by such plan and this Lease. If, within thirty (30) days after receiving a copy of such
Environmental Report, Tenant fails either (a) to complete such Clean-up, or (b) with respect to any Clean-up that cannot be completed within such thirty-day period, fails to proceed with diligence to prepare the Clean-up plan and complete the
Clean-up as promptly as practicable, then Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, and without waiving any other rights under this Lease, to carry out any Clean-up recommended by the Environmental Report or required by any governmental

(“Closure Letter”). Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall also be obligated to close all permits obtained in connection with Hazardous Materials in accordance with applicable laws. 

5.4.4.4 Failure to Timely Clean-Up. Should any Clean-up for which Tenant is responsible not be completed, or should Tenant not
receive the Closure Letter and any governmental approvals 

  
 -18- 

 
required under Environmental Laws in conjunction with such Clean-up prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and Tenant’s failure to receive the Closure Letter is
prohibiting Landlord from leasing the Premises or any part thereof to a third party, or prevents the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by a third party, then Tenant shall be liable to Landlord as a holdover tenant (as more
particularly provided in Article 16) until Tenant has fully complied with its obligations under this Section 5.4. 

5.4.5 Confidentiality. Unless compelled to do so by applicable law, Tenant agrees that Tenant shall not disclose, discuss,
disseminate or copy any information, data, findings, communications, conclusions and reports regarding the environmental condition of the Premises to any Person (other than Tenant’s consultants, attorneys, property managers and employees that
have a need to know such information), including any governmental authority, without the prior written consent of Landlord. In the event Tenant reasonably believes that disclosure is compelled by applicable law, it shall provide Landlord ten (10)
days’ advance notice of disclosure of confidential information so that Landlord may attempt to obtain a protective order. Tenant may additionally release such information to bona fide prospective purchasers or lenders, subject to any such
parties’ written agreement to be bound by the terms of this Section 5.4. 
 5.4.6 Copies of Environmental
Reports. Within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of any and all environmental assessments, audits, studies and reports regarding Tenant’s activities with respect to the Premises, or ground

shall be solely responsible for performing all janitorial and trash services and other cleaning of the Premises, all in compliance with Applicable Laws. In the event such service is provided by a third party janitorial service, and not by employees
of Tenant, such service shall be a janitorial service approved in advance by Landlord, (Landlord shall provide Tenant with a list of approved vendors upon Tenant’s request). The janitorial and cleaning of the Premises shall be adequate to
maintain the Premises in a manner consistent with Comparable Buildings. 
 6.2.2 Subject to Applicable Laws and the other provisions of this
Lease (including, without limitation, the Rules and Regulations, and except in the event of an emergency), Tenant shall have access to the Building, the Premises and the common areas of the Building twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per

all costs and expenses for any separately metered utilities provided exclusively to the Premises directly to the applicable service provider. Tenant shall pay all actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses, without mark-up, for utility charges that are
based on a check- or sub-metering metering installation based on Landlord’s reading of such meters and directly to Landlord, including without limitation for utility charges for power, gas and water serving the HVAC system of the Building
(which are measured by the control management system of the Building based on air volume provided to each tenant space). Additional Rent for such utilities may be reasonably estimated monthly by Landlord, based on actual readings of sub- and
“check” meters where applicable, and shall be paid monthly by Tenant within thirty (30) days after being billed with a final accounting based upon actual bills received from the utility providers following the conclusion of each fiscal
year of the Building. 
 6.3 Metering. If there are ever multiple tenants in the Building Landlord may install devices to
separately meter any utility use at Landlord’s sole cost and expense (or use other reasonable industry standard methods to reasonably estimate such use). In the event there are multiple tenants and Landlord installs separate meters Tenant shall

for damages, by abatement of Rent or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or delay or
diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by breakage, repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building or Project after
reasonable effort to do so, by any riot or other dangerous condition, emergency, accident or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause not under Landlord’s reasonable control; and such failures or
delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent or performing any of its obligations under this Lease. Furthermore, Landlord
shall not be liable under any circumstances 

  
 -20- 

 
for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection
with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth in this Article 6. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing to the contrary, in the event that there shall be an interruption, curtailment or suspension of any service required to be provided by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 (and no reasonably equivalent alternative service or supply is provided
by Landlord) that shall materially interfere with Tenant’s use and enjoyment of a material portion of the Premises, and Tenant actually ceases to use the affected portion of the Premises (any such event, a “Service
Interruption”), and if (i) such Service Interruption shall continue for ten (10) consecutive business days following receipt by Landlord of written notice from Tenant describing such Service Interruption (the “Service Interruption
Notice”), (ii) such Service Interruption shall not have been caused, in whole or in part, by reasons beyond Landlord’s reasonable control or by an act or omission in violation of this Lease by Tenant or by any negligence of Tenant, or
Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors or invitees, and (iii) either (A) Landlord does not diligently commence and pursue to completion the remedy of such Service Interruption or (B) Landlord receives proceeds from its rental interruption
insurance that covers such Service Interruption (a Service Interruption that satisfies the foregoing conditions being referred to hereinafter as a “Material Service Interruption”) then, as liquidated damages and Tenant’s sole
remedy at law or equity, Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of Base Rent and Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses, based on the nature and duration of the Material Service Interruption, the area of the Premises affected, and the
then current Rent amounts, for the period that shall begin on the commencement of such Material Service Interruption and that shall end on the day such Material Service Interruption shall cease To the extent a Material Service Interruption is caused
by an event covered by Articles 11 or 13 of this Lease, then Tenant’s right to abate rent shall be governed by the terms of such Article 11 or 13, as applicable, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply. 

 

	7.	REPAIRS 

 Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense, keep the Premises, including all
improvements, fixtures, furnishings, and systems and equipment therein (including, without limitation, plumbing fixtures and equipment such as dishwashers, garbage disposals, and insta-hot dispensers), and the floor or floors of the Building on
which the Premises are located, in good order, repair and condition at all times during the Lease Term. In addition, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense, but under the supervision and subject to the prior reasonable approval of Landlord, and
within any reasonable period of time specified by Landlord, promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises and replace or repair all damaged, broken, or worn fixtures and appurtenances, except for damage caused by ordinary wear and tear
or beyond the reasonable control of Tenant; provided however, that, at Landlord’s option, or if Tenant fails to make such repairs, Landlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof,
including a percentage of the cost thereof (to be uniformly established for the Building and/or the Project) sufficient to reimburse Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs or expenses arising from Landlord’s
involvement with such repairs and replacements forthwith upon being billed for same. Without limitation, Tenant shall be responsible for heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems and utility services serving the Premises (to the extent
serving Tenant exclusively), and Tenant shall secure, pay for, and keep in force contracts with appropriate and reputable service companies reasonably approved by Landlord providing for the regular maintenance of such systems. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the exterior walls, foundation and roof (including roof membrane) of the Building, the structural portions of the floors of the Building, and the base building systems and equipment of the
Building and Common Areas (to the extent not serving Tenant exclusively), except to the extent that such repairs are required due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant; provided, however, that if such repairs are due to the negligence or
willful misconduct of Tenant, Landlord shall nevertheless make such repairs at Tenant’s expense, or, if covered by Landlord’s insurance, Tenant shall only be obligated to pay any deductible in connection therewith. Subject to the terms of
Article 27, below, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, enter the Premises at all reasonable times and upon reasonable prior notice to make such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Project or
to any equipment located in the Project as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as Landlord may be required to do by governmental or quasi-governmental authority or court order or decree. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts
under the circumstances to minimize disruptions to Tenant’s operations while undertaking such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions. 

  
 -21- 

 If Landlord fails to commence and diligently pursue any repairs to the Premises required by
Landlord under this Lease, after thirty (30) days written notice from Tenant to Landlord of the necessity for same (except in the case of an emergency or in the event the failure to repair has a material impact on the health or safety of
Tenant’s employees, in which case as soon as reasonably practical after Landlord receives written notice from Tenant), then Tenant may make the repairs on Landlord’s behalf using Landlord’s designated vendors and upon delivery to
Landlord of a paid bill by Tenant for any repairs permitted to be made by it pursuant to this Article, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant for the repair. 

 

	8.	ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS 

 8.1 Landlord’s Consent to Alterations.
Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises or any mechanical, plumbing or HVAC facilities or systems pertaining to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring
the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) business days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed by Landlord, provided it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Alteration which adversely affects the structural portions or the systems or equipment of the Building or is visible from the exterior of the
Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations following ten (10) business days notice to Landlord, but without Landlord’s prior consent, to the extent that such Alterations (i) do not affect the Building
systems or equipment, such as electrical, plumbing, capital portions of HVAC, and natural gas, (ii) are not visible from the exterior of the Building, and (iii) cost less than $50,000.00 for a particular job of work. If Tenant notifies Landlord that
Tenant needs an expedited response under this Section 8.1 then Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to Tenant as soon as possible under the circumstances and considering the documentation Landlord will need to review. 

8.2 Prior to commencing any Alterations affecting air distribution or disbursement from ventilation systems serving Tenant or the Building,
including without limitation the installation of Tenant’s exhaust systems, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a third party report from a consultant, and in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, showing that such work will not adversely
affect the ventilation systems or air quality of the Building (or of any other tenant in the Building) and shall, upon completion of such work, provide Landlord with a certification reasonably satisfactory to Landlord from such consultant confirming
that no such adverse effects have resulted from such work. 
 8.3 Manner of Construction. Landlord may impose, as a condition
of its consent to any and all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such
purposes only contractors, subcontractors, materials, mechanics and materialmen selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the requirement that upon Landlord’s
request at the time Landlord approves said Alterations (subject to the terms of Section 8.5, below), Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, remove such Alterations upon the expiration or any early termination of the Lease Term. Tenant
shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformance with any and all applicable federal, state, county or municipal laws, rules and regulations and pursuant to a valid building permit, issued by
the city in which the Building is located (or other applicable governmental authority). Tenant shall not use (and upon notice from Landlord shall cease using) contractors, services, workmen, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord’s
reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building or the Common Areas. Upon completion of any Alterations (or repairs), Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord final lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen who performed such work. In addition to Tenant’s obligations under Article 9 of this Lease, upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to
the Project construction manager a reproducible copy of the “as built” drawings of the Alterations as well as all permits, approvals and other documents issued by any governmental agency in connection with the Alterations. 

8.4 Payment for Improvements. If Tenant orders any work directly from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to
four percent (4%) of the cost of such work to compensate Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses arising from Landlord’s involvement with such work. If Tenant

  
 -22- 

 
does not order any work directly from Landlord, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with
Landlord’s review of such work including a construction management fee in the amount of four percent (4%) of the total costs of such work. 

8.5 Construction Insurance. In addition to the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease, in the event that Tenant makes
any Alterations, prior to the commencement of such Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence that Tenant carries “Builder’s All Risk” insurance (to the extent that the cost of the work shall exceed $100,000.00)
in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to
Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors shall be required to carry Commercial General Liability Insurance in an amount approved by Landlord and otherwise in
accordance with the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease and such general liability insurance shall name the Landlord Parties as additional insureds. If an Alteration will cost One Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($175,000.00)
or more to perform then Landlord may, in its discretion, require Tenant to obtain and record a statutory form of lien bond, or obtain performance and payment bonds, or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient
to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. In addition, Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors shall be required to carry
workers compensation insurance with a waiver of subrogation in favor of Landlord Parties. 
  

	9.	COVENANT AGAINST LIENS 

 Tenant shall keep the Project and Premises free from any liens
or encumbrances arising out of the work performed, materials or services furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant, and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, judgments
or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of same or in connection therewith. Tenant shall give Landlord notice at least twenty (20) days prior to the commencement of any work, services or
obligations related to the Premises giving rise to any such liens or encumbrances (or such additional time as may be necessary under Applicable Laws) to afford Landlord the opportunity of posting and recording appropriate notices of
non-responsibility (to the extent applicable pursuant to then Applicable Laws). Tenant shall remove any such lien or encumbrance by statutory lien bond or otherwise within ten (10) business days after notice by Landlord, and if Tenant shall fail to
do so, Landlord may pay the amount necessary to remove such lien or encumbrance, without being responsible for investigating the validity thereof. 
  

	10.	INSURANCE 

 10.1 Indemnification and Waiver. Tenant hereby assumes all risk
of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any personal injuries resulting from a slip and fall in, upon or about the Premises) and agrees that, absent the
following parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct, Landlord, its lenders, partners, subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors (collectively, “Landlord Parties”)
shall not be liable for, and are hereby released from any responsibility for, any damage either to person or property or resulting from the loss of use thereof, which damage is sustained by Tenant or by other persons claiming through Tenant. Tenant
shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from any and all loss, cost, damage, injury, expense and liability (including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) during the Lease Term, or any
period of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises prior to the commencement or after the expiration of the Lease Term, incurred in connection with or arising from any cause in, on or about the Premises (including, but not limited to, a slip and
fall), any acts, omissions or negligence of Tenant or of any person claiming by, through or under Tenant, or of the contractors, agents, servants, employees, invitees, guests or licensees of Tenant or any such person, in, on or about the Project or
Tenant’s breach of the terms of this Lease, either prior to, during, or after the expiration of the Lease Term, provided that the terms of the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. Should
Landlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought against Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including without
limitation, its actual professional fees such as reasonable appraisers’, accountants’ and attorneys’ fees. The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease with respect to any
claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination. 
  

  
 -23- 

 10.2 Tenant’s Compliance With Landlord’s Property Insurance. Tenant
shall, at Tenant’s expense, comply with all insurance company requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises. If Tenant’s conduct or use of the Premises for any purpose other than the Permitted Use causes any increase in the premium
for such insurance policies then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such increase. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations or requirements of the American Insurance Association (formerly the National
Board of Fire Underwriters) and with any similar body. 
 10.3 Tenant’s Insurance. Tenant shall maintain the following
coverages in the following amounts. 
 10.3.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance on an occurrence form covering the insured against
claims of bodily injury, personal injury and property damage (including loss of use thereof) arising out of Tenant’s operations, products/completed operations, and contractual liability including a Broad Form endorsement covering the insuring
provisions of this Lease and the performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreements set forth in Section 10.1 of this Lease, and including, solely on a claims-made basis, products and completed operations coverage, for limits of liability of
not less than: 
  

			
	 Bodily Injury and
	  	$5,000,000 each occurrence

	  	$5,000,000 annual aggregate
		
	 Personal Injury Liability
	  	$5,000,000 each occurrence
$5,000,000 annual aggregate
0% Insured’s participation

 10.3.2 Property Insurance covering (i) all office furniture, business and trade fixtures, office equipment,
free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions, merchandise and all other items of Tenant’s property on the Premises installed by, for, or at the expense of Tenant, and (ii) any other improvements which exist in the Premises as of the Lease
Commencement Date (excluding the Base Building) (the “New Improvements”). Such insurance shall be written on an “all risks” of physical loss or damage basis, for the full replacement cost value (subject to
reasonable deductible amounts) new without deduction for depreciation of the covered items and in amounts that meet any co-insurance clauses of the policies of insurance and shall include coverage for damage or other loss caused by fire or other
peril including, but not limited to, vandalism and malicious mischief, theft, water damage of any type, including sprinkler leakage, bursting or stoppage of pipes, and explosion. 

10.3.3 Business Income Interruption for six (6) months plus Extra Expense insurance in such amounts as will reimburse Tenant for actual direct
or indirect loss of earnings attributable to the risks outlined in Section 10.3.2 above. 
 10.3.4 Worker’s Compensation and
Employer’s Liability or other similar insurance pursuant to all applicable state and local statutes and regulations. The policy will include a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Landlord Parties. 

10.3.5 Tenant may provide any insurance required hereunder under a blanket or umbrella policy provided the coverage required hereunder is not
diminished. 
 10.4 Form of Policies. The minimum limits of policies of insurance required of Tenant under this Lease shall in
no event limit the liability of Tenant under this Lease. Such insurance shall (i) name Landlord, its subsidiaries and affiliates and any other party the Landlord so specifies, as an additional insured or loss payee, as applicable, including
Landlord’s managing agent, if any; (ii) cover the liability assumed by Tenant under this Lease; (iii) be issued by an insurance company having a rating of not less than A: VIII in Best’s Insurance Guide or which is otherwise acceptable to
Landlord and licensed to do business in the State of North Carolina; (iv) be primary insurance as to all claims thereunder and provide that any insurance carried by Landlord is excess and is non-contributing with any

  
 -24- 

 
insurance required of Tenant; (v) be in form and content reasonably acceptable to Landlord; and (vi) provide that said insurer shall endeavor to provide written notice to Landlord and any
mortgagee of Landlord, to the extent such names are furnished to Tenant prior to the cancellation of such policy. Tenant shall deliver said policy or policies or certificates thereof to Landlord on or before the earlier to occur of (A) the Lease
Commencement Date, and (B) the date upon which Tenant is first provided access to the Premises, and at least ten (10) days before the expiration dates thereof. In the event Tenant shall fail to procure such insurance, or to deliver such policies or
certificate within ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord, Landlord may, at its option, procure such policies for the account of Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid to Landlord within five (5) days after delivery to Tenant of bills
therefor. 
 10.5 Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant intend that their respective property loss risks shall be borne by
reasonable insurance carriers to the extent above provided, and Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to look solely to, and seek recovery only from, their respective insurance carriers in the event of a property loss to the extent that such coverage is
agreed to be provided hereunder. The parties each hereby waive all rights and claims against each other for such losses, and waive all rights of subrogation of their respective insurers, provided such waiver of subrogation shall not affect the right
to the insured to recover thereunder. The parties agree that their respective insurance policies are now, or shall specify that the waiver of subrogation shall not affect the right of the insured to recover thereunder. 

10.6 Additional Insurance Obligations. Tenant shall carry and maintain during the entire Lease Term, at Tenant’s sole cost
and expense, increased amounts of insurance to the extent reasonably required by any lender or mortgagee on the Building, provided that in no event shall such increases exceed five percent (5%). 

10.7 Landlord Insurance. Landlord shall keep in force during the term of this Lease (i) commercial general liability insurance
against any and all claims for bodily injury and property damage occurring in or about the Building or the Common Areas having a combined single limit of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000) in the aggregate, and (ii) property insurance in such amounts and coverages as Landlord deems appropriate or is otherwise required of Landlord by its lender or applicable law, but in no event less than the lesser of (a) at least eighty
percent (80%) percent of the replacement cost of the Building or (b) the maximum insurable value of the Building. 
  

	11.	DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION 

 11.1 Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord.
Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other casualty. If the Premises or any Common Areas serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall
promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 11, restore such Common Areas and the Premises to
substantially the same condition as existed prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Common Areas
deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that access to the or the use of Premises shall not be materially impaired. Upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, upon notice (the
“Landlord Repair Notice”) to Tenant from Landlord, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under Section 10.3.2(ii)
of this Lease and allocated to Alterations or Tenant Improvements, and Landlord’s obligation to restore any Alterations or Tenant Improvements shall be limited to the extent of such proceeds received by Landlord. To the extent permitted
pursuant to Applicable Laws, Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant’s business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such
fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant’s occupancy, and the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, are not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the
extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total
rentable square feet of the Premises. 
 11.2 Landlord’s Option to Repair. Notwithstanding the terms of Section
11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery
of the damage, such 

  
 -25- 

 
notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or
cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of
discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the
insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) at least Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) of damage is not fully covered by Landlord’s
insurance policies; (iv) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; or (v) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project;
provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord’s termination right as provided above, and (a) the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within three hundred
sixty-five (365) days after being commenced, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord
effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant, or (b) the repairs have not been completed within seven hundred thirty
(730) days after the date of such damage, Tenant may elect, not later than seven hundred ninety (790) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which
date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant, provided, however, if Landlord completes the repairs prior to such termination date then Tenant’s notice shall be null and
void. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions is satisfied: (a) the damage to the Project by fire or other casualty was
not caused by the gross negligence or intentional act of Tenant or its partners or subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors; and (b) as a result of the damage, Tenant cannot reasonably
conduct business from the Premises. In addition, Tenant may terminate this Lease if the damage to the Premises occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, and, as a result of such damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business
from the Premises for a period of thirty (30) days or more. 
  

	12.	NONWAIVER 

 No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party hereto
unless expressly waived in a writing signed thereby. The waiver by either party hereto of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of same or any other term, covenant
or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the
particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No acceptance of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right
to receive the full amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment or any letter accompanying such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to
Landlord’s right to recover the full amount due. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant’s right of possession hereunder, or after
the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final
judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment. 
  

	13.	CONDEMNATION 

 If the whole or any part of the Premises, Building or Project shall be
taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in such manner
as to require the use, reconstruction or remodeling of any part of the Premises, Building or Project, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, and thereafter the Premises,
Building or Project are not reasonably suitable for the Permitted Use, Tenant or Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority. Tenant shall not because of

  
 -26- 

 
such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection therewith,
except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms
of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent
shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Article 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, and provided that such temporary taking does not materially preclude or unreasonably diminish
Tenant’s ability to conduct business from the Premises, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square
feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking, provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to a share
of the award for any loss of fixtures and improvements and for moving and other reasonable expenses that do not otherwise reduce Landlord’s recovery. 
  

	14.	ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 

 14.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not, without the
prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest
hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or enter into any license or concession agreements or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant and its
employees and contractors (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as “Transfers” and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a
“Transferee”). If Tenant desires Landlord’s consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the “Transfer Notice”) shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer,
which shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the “Subject Space”),
(iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including calculation of the “Transfer Premium”, as that term is defined in Section 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and
address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, and (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner
thereof, business credit and personal references and history of the proposed Transferee and any other information reasonably required by Landlord which will enable Landlord to determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the
proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee’s business and proposed use of the Subject Space. Any Transfer made without Landlord’s prior written consent shall, at Landlord’s option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at
Landlord’s option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Whether or not Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s reasonable review and processing fees, as well as any reasonable professional fees
(including, without limitation, attorneys’, accountants’, architects’, engineers’ and consultants’ fees) incurred by Landlord, within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord. 

14.2 Landlord’s Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer
of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any
applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply: 
 14.2.1 The Transferee
is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project; 
 14.2.2
The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof; 

  
 -27- 

 14.2.3 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in
light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested; 
 14.2.4 The proposed
Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease; or 

14.2.5 Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with, the proposed Transferee, is negotiating with Landlord or has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date Landlord receives the Transfer Notice, to lease space in the Project. 

If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord
may have under Section 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord’s consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon
substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those
specified in the Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action
under this Article 14 (including Landlord’s right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has
unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a suit for contract damages (other than damages for injury to, or
interference with, Tenant’s business including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring) or declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation,
any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee. 

14.3 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any “Transfer Premium,” as that term is defined in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee (other than any Permitted Party). “Transfer
Premium” shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on
a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred, after deducting the reasonable third party expenses incurred by Tenant for (i) any design and construction costs incurred on account of changes, alterations and
improvements to the Premises in connection with the Transfer, (ii) any free base rent and tenant improvement allowances reasonably provided to the Transferee in connection with the Transfer (provided that such free rent and tenant improvement
allowances shall be deducted only to the extent the same is included in the calculation of total consideration payable by such Transferee), (iii) any brokerage commissions in connection with the Transfer, (iv) legal fees and disbursements reasonably
incurred in connection with the Transfer, and (v) any unamortized Excess Costs, as defined in Exhibit D (as determined on a straight line basis over the initial term of this Lease, without interest) paid by Tenant for the Tenant
Improvements (collectively, “Tenant’s Subleasing Costs”). “Transfer Premium” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in
connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such
Transfer. The determination of the amount of Landlord’s applicable share of the Transfer Premium shall be made on a monthly basis as rent or other consideration is received by Tenant under the Transfer. 

14.4 Intentionally Omitted. 

14.5 Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be
deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all
documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Landlord’s request a complete statement, certified by an independent certified public

  
 -28- 

 
accountant, or Tenant’s chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no Transfer
relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord’s consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from any liability under this Lease, including, without limitation, in
connection with the Subject Space. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, and shall have the right to make copies thereof. If
the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after demand, pay the deficiency, and if understated by more than two percent (2%), Tenant shall pay Landlord’s costs of such audit.

 14.6 Intentionally Omitted. 

14.7 Occurrence of Default. Any Transfer hereunder shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this Lease, and if this
Lease shall be terminated during the term of any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to: (i) treat such Transfer as cancelled and repossess the Subject Space by any lawful means, or (ii) require that such Transferee attorn to and recognize
Landlord as its landlord under any such Transfer. If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Tenant’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all payments under or in
connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply towards Tenant’s obligations under this Lease) until such default is cured. Such Transferee shall rely on any representation by Landlord that Tenant is in default
hereunder, without any need for confirmation thereof by Tenant. Upon any assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease. No collection or acceptance of
rent by Landlord from any Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 14 or the approval of any Transferee or a release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing.
In no event shall Landlord’s enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any Transferee be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person. If Tenant’s obligations
hereunder have been guaranteed, Landlord’s consent to any Transfer shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such Transfer. 

14.8 Non-Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 14, (i) an assignment or
subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant (an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant), (ii) an assignment of the Premises to an entity which acquires all or substantially all
of the assets or interests (partnership, stock or other) of Tenant, (iii) an assignment of the Premises to an entity which is the resulting entity of a merger or consolidation of Tenant, or (iv) a sale of corporate shares of capital stock in Tenant
in connection with an initial public offering of Tenant’s stock on a nationally-recognized stock exchange (collectively, a “Permitted Transferee”), shall not be deemed a Transfer under this Article 14, provided that
(A) Tenant notifies Landlord of any such assignment or sublease and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information requested by Landlord regarding such assignment or sublease or such affiliate, (B) such assignment or sublease is not a
subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease, (C) such Permitted Transferee shall be of a character and reputation consistent with the quality of the Building, and (D) such Permitted Transferee shall have a tangible net worth (not
including goodwill as an asset) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“Net Worth”) at least equal to the Net Worth of Tenant on the day immediately preceding the effective date of such assignment or
sublease. An assignee of Tenant’s entire interest that is also a Permitted Transferee may also be known as a “Permitted Assignee”. “Control,” as used in this Section 14.8, shall mean the ownership,
directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting interest in, any person or
entity. No such permitted assignment or subletting shall serve to release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease. 
  

	15.	SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES 

 15.1 Surrender of
Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in
writing by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by
Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. 

  
 -29- 

 
The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate
as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises or terminate any or all such sublessees or subtenancies. 

15.2 Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant,
reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all
debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar
articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal. In no event shall
any Tenant Improvements be deemed to be Tenant’s personal property, it being the intent that Tenant’s personal property includes only those items that are not built into the Premises and that have not been constructed or installed by
Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter. 
 15.3 Environmental Assessment. Prior to the expiration of the Lease (or within thirty
(30) days after any earlier termination), Tenant shall clean and otherwise decommission all interior surfaces (including floors, walls, ceilings, and counters), piping, supply lines, waste lines and plumbing in or serving the Premises, and all
exhaust or other ductwork in or serving the Premises, in each case that has carried, released or otherwise been exposed to any Hazardous Materials due to Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, and shall otherwise clean the Premises so as to
permit the Environmental Assessment called for by this Section 15.3 to be issued. Prior to the expiration of this Lease (or within thirty (30) days after any earlier termination), Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall obtain for Landlord a report
(an “Environmental Assessment”) addressed to Landlord (and, at Tenant’s election, Tenant) by a reputable licensed environmental engineer or industrial hygienist that is designated by Tenant and acceptable to Landlord in
Landlord’s reasonable discretion, which report shall be based on the environmental engineer’s inspection of the Premises and shall state, to the Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, that (a) the Hazardous Materials described in the
first sentence of this paragraph, to the extent, if any, existing prior to such decommissioning, have been removed in accordance with Applicable Laws; (b) all Hazardous Materials described in the first sentence of this paragraph, if any, have been
removed in accordance with Applicable Laws from the interior surfaces of the Premises (including floors, walls, ceilings, and counters), piping, supply lines, waste lines and plumbing, and all such exhaust or other ductwork in the Premises, may be
reused by a subsequent tenant or disposed of in compliance with Applicable Laws without incurring special costs or undertaking special procedures for demolition, disposal, investigation, assessment, cleaning or removal of such Hazardous Materials
and without giving notice in connection with such Hazardous Materials; and (c) the Premises may be reoccupied for office, research and development, or laboratory use, demolished or renovated without incurring special costs or undertaking special
procedures for disposal, investigation, assessment, cleaning or removal of Hazardous Materials described in the first sentence of this paragraph and without giving notice in connection with Hazardous Materials. Further, for purposes of
clauses (b) and (c), “special costs” or “special procedures” shall mean costs or procedures, as the case may be, that would not be incurred but for the nature of the Hazardous Materials as Hazardous Materials instead of
non-hazardous materials. The report shall also include reasonable detail concerning the clean-up measures taken, the clean-up locations, the tests run and the analytic results. Tenant shall submit to Landlord the scope of the proposed Environmental
Assessment for Landlord’s reasonable review and approval at least 30 days prior to commencing the work described therein or at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Lease Term, whichever is earlier. 

If Tenant fails to perform its obligations under this Section 15.3 without limiting any other right or remedy, Landlord may, on five (5)
business days’ prior written notice to Tenant perform such obligations at Tenant’s expense if Tenant has not commenced to do so within said five day period, and Tenant shall within 10 days of written demand reimburse Landlord for all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such work. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 15.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. In addition, at Landlord’s
election, Landlord may inspect the Premises and/or the Project for Hazardous Materials at Landlord’s cost and expense within sixty (60) days of Tenant’s surrender of the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Tenant shall pay for all such costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with 

  
 -30- 

 
such inspection if such inspection reveals that a release or threat of release of Hazardous Materials exists at the Project or Premises as a result of the acts or omission of Tenant, its
officers, employees, contractors, and agents (except to the extent resulting from (i) Hazardous Materials existing in the Premises as at the delivery of possession to Tenant (in which event Landlord shall be responsible for any Clean-up, as provided
in this Lease), or (ii) the acts or omissions of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or contractors). 
  

	16.	HOLDING OVER 

 If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier
termination thereof, with the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term. If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the
Lease Term of earlier termination thereof, without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be deemed to be a tenancy by sufferance only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term. In either
case, Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month tenancy or tenancy by sufferance, as the
case may be, shall be subject to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly
reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or
constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing
therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom. 
  

	17.	ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES 

 Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by
Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F, attached hereto (or such other form as may be required
by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or
Landlord’s mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Project. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably
required for such purposes. No more often than once per year and only when Landlord is financing or selling the Building or if Tenant is in default under this lease, at any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord
with a current financial statement and financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, if such is the normal
practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant. Failure of Tenant to execute, acknowledge and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments within five (5) business days after a second notice to Tenant
regarding same shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception. 

 

	18.	SUBORDINATION 

 This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future
ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any mortgage, trust deed or other encumbrances now or hereafter in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof, if any, and to all renewals, extensions,
modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages, trust deeds or other encumbrances, or the lessors
under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof (or if any
ground lease is terminated), to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if so requested to do
so by such 

  
 -31- 

 
purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the lessor under this Lease, provided such lienholder or purchaser or ground lessor
shall agree to accept this Lease and not disturb Tenant’s occupancy, so long as Tenant timely pays the rent and observes and performs the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant. Landlord’s
delivery to Tenant of commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement(s) in favor of Tenant from any ground lessors, mortgage holders or lien holders of Landlord who come into existence following the date hereof but prior to the expiration of the
Lease Term shall be in consideration of, and a condition precedent to, Tenant’s agreement to subordinate this Lease to any such ground lease, mortgage or lien. Landlord’s interest herein may be assigned as security at any time to any
lienholder. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of request by Landlord, execute such further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any
such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect
this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale. Landlord represents to Tenant that, as of the date of this Lease, there are no ground lessors or mortgage holders of Landlord. Landlord shall
use reasonable efforts to obtain a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement(s) in favor of Tenant from any future ground lessors or mortgage holders of Landlord. 
  

	19.	DEFAULTS; REMEDIES 

 19.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any
of the following shall constitute a default of this Lease by Tenant: 
 19.1.1 Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent or any other charge
required to be paid under this Lease, or any part thereof, when due unless such failure is cured within seven (7) business days after written notice, provided, however in no event shall Landlord be required to give notice of late Rent or other
payment more than twice in a calendar year and the third time any payment is late during such calendar year shall constitute an automatic default; or 

19.1.2 Except where a specific time period is otherwise set forth for Tenant’s performance in this Lease, in which event the failure to
perform by Tenant within such time period shall be a default by Tenant under this Section 19.1.2, any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant where
such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be
deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and cure such default; or 

19.1.3 Abandonment of the Premises by Tenant; or 

19.1.4 The failure by Tenant to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 5, 14, 17 or 18-of this
Lease where such failure continues for more than five (5) business days after written notice from Landlord. 
 The notice periods provided
herein are in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice periods provided by law. 
 19.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon
the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or
more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever, to be exercised in accordance with applicable law. 

19.2.1 Landlord may, immediately or at any time thereafter, elect to terminate this Lease by notice of termination, by entry, or by any other
means available under law and may recover possession of the Premises as provided herein. Upon termination by notice, by entry, or by any other means available under law, Landlord shall be entitled immediately, in the case of termination by notice or
entry, and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of 

  
 -32- 

 
law to recover possession of the Premises from Tenant and those claiming through or under the Tenant. Such termination of this Lease and repossession of the Premises shall be without prejudice to
any remedies which Landlord might otherwise have for arrears of rent or for a prior breach of the provisions of this Lease. Tenant waives any statutory notice to quit and equitable rights in the nature of further cure or redemption, and Tenant
agrees that upon Landlord’s termination of this Lease Landlord shall be entitled to re-entry and possession in accordance with the terms hereof. Landlord may, without notice, store Tenant’s personal property (and those of any person
claiming under Tenant) at the expense and risk of Tenant. Tenant agrees that a notice by Landlord alleging any default shall, at Landlord’s option (the exercise of such option shall be indicated by the inclusion of the words “notice to
quit” in such notice), constitute a statutory notice to quit. If Landlord exercises its option to designate a notice of default hereunder as a statutory notice to quit, any grace periods provided for herein shall run concurrently with any
statutory notice periods. 
 19.2.2 In the case of termination of this Lease pursuant to Section 19.2.1, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for
all expenses arising out of such termination, including without limitation, all costs incurred in collecting amounts due from Tenant under this Lease (including attorneys’ fees, costs of litigation and the like); all expenses incurred by
Landlord in attempting to relet the Premises or parts thereof (including advertisements, brokerage commissions, Tenant’s allowances, costs of preparing space, and the like); and all Landlord’s other reasonable expenditures necessitated by
the termination. The reimbursement from Tenant shall be due and payable immediately from time to time upon notice from Landlord that an expense has been incurred, without regard to whether the expense was incurred before or after the termination.

 19.2.3 Landlord may elect by written notice to Tenant within one year following such termination to be indemnified for loss of rent by a
lump sum payment representing the then present value of the amount of Rent that would have been paid in accordance with this Lease for the remainder of the Lease Term minus the then present value of the aggregate fair market rent and additional
charges payable for the Premises for the remainder of the Lease Term (if less than the Rent payable hereunder), estimated as of the date of the termination, and taking into account reasonable projections of vacancy and time required to re-lease the
Premises. (For the purposes of calculating the Rent that would have been paid hereunder for the lump sum payment calculation described herein, the last full year’s Additional Rent under Article 4 is to be deemed constant for each year
thereafter. The Federal Reserve discount rate (or equivalent) shall be used in calculating present values.) Should the parties be unable to agree on a fair market rent, the matter shall be submitted, upon the demand of either party, to the
Charlotte, North Carolina office of the American Arbitration Association, with a request for arbitration in accordance with the rules of the Association by a single arbitrator who shall be an MAI appraiser with at least ten years’ experience as
an appraiser of life sciences buildings in the Research Triangle Park and Durham markets. The parties agree that a decision of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon them. If, at the end of the Lease Term, the rent that Landlord has
actually received from the Premises is less than the aggregate fair market rent estimated as aforesaid, Tenant shall thereupon pay Landlord the amount of such difference. If and for so long as Landlord does not make the election provided for in this
Section 19.2.3, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord for the loss of Rent by a payment at the end of each month which would have been included in the Lease Term, representing the excess of the Rent that would have been paid in accordance with this Lease
(Base Rent together with any Additional Rent that would have been payable under Article 4, to be ascertained monthly) over the rent actually derived from the Premises by Landlord for such month (the amount of rent deemed derived shall be the actual
amount less any portion thereof attributable to Landlord’s reletting expenses described in Section 19.2.2 that have not been reimbursed by Tenant thereunder). 

19.2.4 Intentionally Omitted. 

19.2.5 In lieu of any other damages or indemnity and in lieu of full recovery by Landlord of all sums payable under all the foregoing
provisions of this Section 19.2, Landlord may by written notice to Tenant within six (6) months after termination under any of the provisions contained in Section 19.1 and before such full recovery, elect to recover, and Tenant shall thereupon pay,
as minimum liquidated damages under this Section 19.2, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Base Rent and Additional Rent for the balance of the Lease Term had it not been terminated or (ii) the aggregate thereof for the 12
months ending one year after the termination date, plus in either case (iii) the amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent of any kind accrued and unpaid at the time of termination and minus (iv) the amount of any recovery by Landlord under the
foregoing provisions of this Section 19.2 up to the time of payment of such liquidated damages (but reduced by any amounts of reimbursement under Section 19.2.2). Liquidated damages hereunder shall not be in lieu of any claims for reimbursement
under Section 19.2.2. 

  
 -33- 

 19.2.6 If Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant,
Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due. 

19.2.7 Landlord shall at all times have the rights and remedies (which shall be cumulative with each other and cumulative and in addition to
those rights and remedies available under Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2, above, or any law or other provision of this Lease), without prior demand or notice except as required by applicable law, to seek any declaratory, injunctive or other equitable
relief, and specifically enforce this Lease, or restrain or enjoin a violation or breach of any provision hereof. The provisions of this Section 19.2.7 are not dependent upon the occurrence of a default. 

19.2.8 Any obligation imposed by law upon Landlord to relet the Premises after any termination of the Lease shall be subject to the reasonable
requirements of Landlord to lease to high quality tenants on such terms as Landlord may from time to time deem appropriate and to develop the Building in a harmonious manner with an appropriate mix of uses, tenants, floor areas and terms of
tenancies, and the like, and Landlord shall not be obligated to relet the Premises to any party to whom Landlord or its affiliate may desire to lease other available space in the Building. 

19.2.9 Nothing herein shall limit or prejudice the right of Landlord to prove and obtain in a proceeding for bankruptcy, insolvency,
arrangement or reorganization, by reason of the termination, an amount equal to the maximum allowed by a statute of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, the damages are to be proved, whether or not the amount is
greater to, equal to, or less than the amount of the loss or damage which Landlord has suffered. 
 19.3 Subleases of
Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or
other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of
Landlord’s election to succeed to Tenant’s interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or
other consideration receivable thereunder. 
 19.4 Efforts to Relet. No re-entry or repossession, repairs, maintenance,
changes, alterations and additions, reletting, appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord’s interests hereunder, or any other action or omission by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease or
Tenant’s right to possession, or to accept a surrender of the Premises, nor shall same operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, unless express written notice of such intention is sent by
Landlord to Tenant. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease. 
 19.5
Landlord Default. 
 19.5.1 General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Lease, Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease unless Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from Tenant
specifying in detail Landlord’s failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease
if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion. Upon any such default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease
to the contrary, exercise any of its rights provided at law or in equity. 
 19.5.2 Intentionally Omitted. 

  
 -34- 

	20.	COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT 

 Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent, charges
for services and other payments herein reserved and on keeping, observing and performing all the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed, shall, during
the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises subject to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements hereof without interference by any persons lawfully claiming by or through Landlord. The foregoing
covenant is in lieu of any other covenant express or implied. 
  

	21.	SECURITY DEPOSIT 

 21.1 Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant
shall deposit with Landlord a letter of credit (the “L/C Security”) in the amount set forth in Section 9 of the Summary as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease as follows:

 (a) Tenant shall provide Landlord, and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Term and until the date that is ninety (90) days
after the Lease Expiration Date, a letter of credit substantially in the form of Exhibit I issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in the amount set forth in Section 9 of the Summary, with an initial term of at
least one year. Landlord may require the L/C Security to be replaced by an L/C Security issued by a different issuer at any time during the Term if Landlord reasonably believes that the issuing bank of the L/C Security is or may soon become
insolvent. If Tenant has actual notice, or Landlord notifies Tenant at any time, that any issuer of the L/C Security has become insolvent or placed into FDIC receivership, then Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord (without the requirement of
further notice from Landlord) substitute L/C Security issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and otherwise conforming to the requirements set forth in this Article. As used herein with respect to the issuer of the L/C Security,
“insolvent” shall mean the determination of insolvency as made by such issuer’s primary bank regulator (i.e., the state bank supervisor for state chartered banks; the OCC or OTS, respectively, for federally chartered banks or thrifts;
or the Federal Reserve for its member banks). 
 (b) Landlord may draw upon the L/C Security, and hold and apply the proceeds for the
payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default, if: (i) a default beyond applicable notice and cure periods exists (or would have
existed with the giving of notice and passage of applicable cure periods, but only if transmittal of a default notice is stayed or barred by applicable bankruptcy or other similar law), provided that such draw pursuant to his clause (i) shall be
limited to the amount that Landlord reasonably determines is required to cure such default; (ii) as of the date forty-five (45) days before any L/C Security expires Tenant has not delivered to Landlord an amendment or replacement for such L/C
Security, reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, extending the expiry date to the earlier of (1) ninety (90) days after the then-current Lease Expiration Date or (2) the date one year after the then-current expiry date of the L/C Security; (iii)
Tenant fails to pay (when and as Landlord reasonably requires) any bank charges for Landlord’s transfer of the L/C Security; or (iv) the issuer of the L/C Security ceases, or announces that it will cease, to maintain an office in the city where
Landlord may present drafts under the L/C Security (and fails to permit drawing upon the L/C Security by overnight courier or facsimile). This Section does not limit any other provisions of this Lease allowing Landlord to draw the L/C Security under
specified circumstances. In the event of any such draw upon the L/C Security, Tenant shall within 10 business days thereafter provide Landlord with a replacement letter of credit, or amendment to the existing letter of credit increasing the amount
of such letter of credit, in the amount of L/C Security required hereunder, and Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall hold the proceeds of any draw not applied as set forth above as a cash Security
Deposit as further described below. 
 (c) If Landlord transfers its interest in the Premises, then Landlord shall transfer the L/C Security
to the transferee of its interest and notify Tenant of such transfer, and Tenant shall at Tenant’s expense, within fifteen (15) business days after receiving a request from Landlord, deliver (and, if the issuer requires, Landlord shall consent
to) an amendment to the L/C Security naming Landlord’s grantee as substitute beneficiary. If the required Security Deposit changes while L/C Security is in force, then Tenant shall deliver (and, if the issuer requires, Landlord shall consent
to) a corresponding amendment to the L/C Security. 

  
 -35- 

 (d) If and to the extent Landlord is holding the proceeds of the L/C Security in cash from time
to time, such cash shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the period commencing on the Execution Date and
ending upon the expiration or termination of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. If Tenant defaults (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) with respect to any provision of this Lease, including any provision relating to the payment of
Rent, then Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage that Landlord may
suffer by reason of Tenant’s default as provided in this Lease. The provisions of this Article shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. In the event of bankruptcy or other debtor-creditor proceedings against Tenant,
any cash security then being held by Landlord shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Rent and other charges due Landlord for all periods prior to the filing of such proceedings. Landlord shall deliver or credit to any purchaser of
Landlord’s interest in the Premises the funds then held hereunder by Landlord, and thereupon (and upon confirmation by the transferee of such funds, whether expressly or by written assumption of this Lease, generally) Landlord shall be
discharged from any further liability with respect to such funds. This provision shall also apply to any subsequent transfers. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, then the cash security,
if any, or any balance thereof, shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) within 90 days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If and to the extent the
security held by Landlord hereunder shall be in cash, Landlord shall hold such cash in an account at a banking organization selected by Landlord; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to maintain a separate account for the
cash security, but may intermingle it with other funds of Landlord. Landlord shall be entitled to all interest and/or dividends, if any, accruing on such cash security. 

(e) Tenant reserves the right to replace the L/C Security with a cash security deposit at any time during the Term, in which event the L/C
Security shall promptly be returned to Tenant. 
  

	22.	SUBSTITUTION OF OTHER PREMISES 

 Intentionally Omitted. 

 

	23.	SIGNS 

 23.1 Interior Signage. Following the Rent Commencement Date,
Landlord shall provide Tenant with a building-standard multi-tenant lobby directory listing and a multi-tenant floor directory listing identifying Tenant. Such signage shall be comparable to that used by Landlord for other similar floors in the
Building and shall comply with Landlord’s then-current Building standard signage program. 
 23.2 Exterior
Signage. Subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, in its reasonable discretion, and provided all signs are in keeping with the quality, design and style of the Building and Project, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, may
install one sign identifying Tenant at the entry to the Premises, which identification signage shall be consistent with building standard signage as determined by Landlord. All permitted signs shall be maintained by Tenant at its expense in a
first-class and safe condition and appearance. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of its signs at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall repair any damage to the Premises or Project, inside
or outside, resulting from the erection, maintenance or removal of any signs. Tenant’s signage must also comply with all Applicable Laws, as defined below. 

23.3 Prohibited Signage and Other Items. Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names or advertisements which are installed
and that have not been separately approved by Landlord may be removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant. Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Project or the Common Areas. Any signs, window coverings,
or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord-approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole
discretion. Tenant shall not place or install any projections, antennae, aerials, or similar devices inside or outside of the Building, without the prior written approval of Landlord, subject to Tenant’s rights pursuant to Section 23.2, above.

  
 -36- 

	24.	COMPLIANCE WITH LAW 

 Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or
about the Premises or the Project which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated (collectively, “Applicable
Laws”). At its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all such Applicable Laws which relate to (i) Tenant’s use of the Premises, (ii) any Alterations or Tenant Improvements, or (iii) the Building, but as to the
Building (and as to any improvements to exterior walls, structural floors and the portions of the electrical, heating, ventilation and air conditioning and other systems of the Building that serve other tenants and that are located within the
Premises), only to the extent such obligations are triggered by Alterations or Tenant Improvements, or Tenant’s use of the Premises for non-general office and laboratory use. Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to make
all alterations to the Premises as are required to comply with the Applicable Laws to the extent required in this Article 24. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Article 24 to the contrary, Tenant may defer such compliance with
Applicable Laws while Tenant contests, in a court of proper jurisdiction, in good faith, the applicability of such Applicable Laws to the Premises or Tenant’s specific use or occupancy of the Premises; provided, however, Tenant may only defer
such compliance if such deferral shall not (a) prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, (b) prohibit Landlord from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Building or any portion
thereof, (c) unreasonably and materially affect the safety of the employees and/or invitees of Landlord or of any tenant in the Building (including Tenant), (d) create a significant health hazard for the employees and/or invitees of Landlord or of
any tenant in the Building (including Tenant), (e) otherwise materially and adversely affect Tenant’s use of or access to the Buildings or the Premises, or (f) impose material obligations, liability, fines, or penalties upon Landlord or any
other tenant of the Building, or would materially and adversely affect the use of or access to the Building by Landlord or other tenants or invitees of the Building. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in
any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall comply with all Applicable Laws
relating to the Base Building, provided that compliance with such Applicable Laws is not the responsibility of Tenant under this Lease, and provided further that Landlord’s failure to comply therewith would prohibit Tenant from obtaining or
maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, or would unreasonably and materially affect the safety of Tenant’s employees or create a significant health hazard for Tenant’s employees, or would otherwise materially and adversely
affect Tenant’s use of or access to the Premises. Landlord shall be permitted to include in Operating Expenses any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under this Article 24 to the extent not prohibited by the terms of Section
4.2.7 above. 
  

	25.	LATE CHARGES 

 If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be
received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee within five (5) business days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice from Landlord that said amount is due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the
overdue amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not charge Tenant a late charge for the first (1st) late payment in any twelve (12) month period (but in no event with respect to any
subsequent late payment in any twelve (12) month period) during the Lease Term that Tenant fails to timely pay Rent or another sum due under this Lease, provided that such late payment is made within three (3) days following the expiration of the
five (5) business day period set forth in the first sentence of this Article 25. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder or
at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid when due shall bear interest
from the date when due until paid at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the annual “Bank Prime Loan” rate cited in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release Publication G.13(415), published on the first Tuesday of each
calendar month (or such other comparable index as Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably agree upon if such rate ceases to be published) plus four (4) percentage points, and (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

	26.	LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT 

 26.1 Landlord’s
Cure. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly
provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation under this Lease, and such failure shall continue in excess of the time allowed under Section 19.1.2, above, unless a specific time period is otherwise stated in this Lease,
Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant’s part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder. 

26.2 Tenant’s Reimbursement. Except as may be specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, upon delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with the remedying by Landlord of Tenant’s defaults pursuant to the
provisions of Section 26.1; (ii) sums equal to all losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses referred to in Article 10 of this Lease; and (iii) sums equal to all expenditures made and obligations incurred by Landlord in
collecting or attempting to collect the Rent or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all reasonable legal fees and other amounts so expended. Tenant’s
obligations under this Section 26.2 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term. 
  

	27.	ENTRY BY LANDLORD 

 Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon not less
than one (1) day’s prior notice to Tenant (except in the case of an emergency) to enter the Premises to (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, or to current or prospective mortgagees, ground or underlying lessors or
insurers or, during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, to prospective tenants; (iii) post notices of nonresponsibility (to the extent applicable pursuant to then applicable law); or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the
Building, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building or the Building’s systems and equipment. Provided that Landlord employs commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the conduct of Tenant’s
business in connection with entries into the Premises, Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, and shall take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes.
In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible
or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises. 
  

	28.	TENANT PARKING 

 Tenant shall have the right, without the payment of any parking charge
or fee (other than as a reimbursement of operating expenses to the extent allowed pursuant to the terms or Article 4 of this Lease, above), commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, to use the amount of unreserved parking spaces set forth in
Section 10 of the Summary, on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term, which parking spaces shall pertain to the on-site and/or off-site, as the case may be, parking facility (or facilities) which serve the Project. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall be responsible for the full amount of any taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with the renting of such parking spaces by Tenant or the use of the parking facility by Tenant. Tenant’s continued right
to use the parking spaces is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking spaces are located (including any sticker or
other identification system established by Landlord and the prohibition of vehicle repair and maintenance activities in the parking facilities), and shall cooperate in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and
regulations. Tenant’s use of the Project parking facility shall be at Tenant’s sole risk and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever for damage to the vehicles of Tenant, its employees and/or
visitors, or for other personal injury or property damage or theft relating to or connected with the parking rights granted herein or any of Tenant’s, its employees’ and/or visitors’ use of the parking facilities. 

  
 -38- 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Landlord represents that the parking
facilities that serve the Project will be in compliance with all municipal codes and regulations following the completion of the Tenant Improvements. 
  

	29.	MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 

 29.1 Terms; Captions. The words
“Landlord” and “Tenant” as used herein shall include the plural as well as the singular. The necessary grammatical changes required to make the provisions hereof apply either to corporations or partnerships or
individuals, men or women, as the case may require, shall in all cases be assumed as though in each case fully expressed. The captions of Articles and Sections are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to limit, construe, affect or alter the
meaning of such Articles and Sections. 
 29.2 Binding Effect. Subject to all other provisions of this Lease, each of the
covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall extend to and shall, as the case may require, bind or inure to the benefit not only of Landlord and of Tenant, but also of their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors or
assigns, provided this clause shall not permit any assignment by Tenant contrary to the provisions of Article 14 of this Lease. 

29.3 No Air Rights. No rights to any view or to light or air over any property, whether belonging to Landlord or any other
person, are granted to Tenant by this Lease. If at any time any windows of the Premises are temporarily darkened or the light or view therefrom is obstructed by reason of any repairs, improvements, maintenance or cleaning in or about the Project,
the same shall be without liability to Landlord and without any reduction or diminution of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. 

29.4 Modification of Lease. Should any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Building or Project require a
modification of this Lease, which modification will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way materially and adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then and in such event, Tenant agrees that this
Lease may be so modified and agrees to execute whatever documents are reasonably required therefor and to deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following a request therefor. At the request of Landlord or any mortgagee or ground
lessor, Tenant agrees to execute a short form of Lease and deliver the same to Landlord within ten (10) business days following the request therefor. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any reasonable and actual attorney fees associated with the
review of any such Modification of the Lease. 
 29.5 Transfer of Landlord’s Interest. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord
has the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Project or Building and in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such transfer, and following Landlord’s successor’s written assumption of the obligations
of landlord hereunder, Landlord shall automatically be released from all liability under this Lease and Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee for the performance of Landlord’s obligations hereunder after the date of transfer and such
transferee shall be deemed to have fully assumed and be liable for all obligations of this Lease to be performed by Landlord, including the return of any Security Deposit, and Tenant shall attorn to such transferee. 

29.6 Prohibition Against Recording. In the event this Lease, a copy or any notice or memorandum thereof shall be recorded by
Tenant, then such recording shall constitute a default by Tenant under Article 19 hereof entitling Landlord to immediately terminate this Lease. At the request of either Landlord or Tenant, the parties shall execute a document in recordable form
containing only such information as is necessary to constitute a Notice of Lease under North Carolina law. All costs of preparation and recording such notice shall be borne by the requesting party. At the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease, Tenant shall provide Landlord with an executed termination of the Notice of Lease in recordable form, which obligation shall survive such expiration or earlier termination. 

29.7 Landlord’s Title. Landlord’s title is and always shall be paramount to the title of Tenant. Nothing herein
contained shall empower Tenant to do any act which can, shall or may encumber the title of Landlord. 

  
 -39- 

 29.8 Relationship of Parties. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be deemed or
construed by the parties hereto or by any third party to create the relationship of principal and agent, partnership, joint venturer or any association between Landlord and Tenant. 

29.9 Application of Payments. Landlord shall have the right to apply payments received from Tenant pursuant to this Lease,
regardless of Tenant’s designation of such payments, to satisfy any obligations of Tenant hereunder, in such order and amounts as Landlord, in its sole discretion, may elect. 

29.10 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of every provision of this Lease in which time of
performance is a factor. 
 29.11 Partial Invalidity. If any term, provision or condition contained in this Lease shall, to
any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term, provision or condition to persons or circumstances other than those with respect to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected
thereby, and each and every other term, provision and condition of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent possible permitted by law. 

29.12 No Warranty. In executing and delivering this Lease, Tenant has not relied on any representations, including, but not
limited to, any representation as to the amount of any item comprising Additional Rent or the amount of the Additional Rent in the aggregate or that Landlord is furnishing the same services to other tenants, at all, on the same level or on the same
basis, or any warranty or any statement of Landlord which is not set forth herein or in one or more of the exhibits attached hereto. 

29.13 Landlord Exculpation. The liability of Landlord or the Landlord Parties to Tenant for any default by Landlord under this
Lease or arising in connection herewith or with Landlord’s operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration or any other matter relating to the Project or the Premises shall be limited solely and exclusively to an amount which is
equal to the interest of Landlord in the Building, including proceeds from any casualty insurance. Neither Landlord, nor any of the Landlord Parties shall have any personal liability therefor, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such
personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant. The limitations of liability contained in this Section 29.13 shall inure to the benefit of Landlord’s and the Landlord Parties’ present and
future partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, agents and employees, and their respective partners, heirs, successors and assigns. Under no circumstances shall any present or future partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a
partnership), or trustee or beneficiary (if Landlord or any partner of Landlord is a trust), have any liability for the performance of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, neither Landlord nor
the Landlord Parties shall be liable under any circumstances for consequential or indirect damages, including without limitation injury or damage to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including but not limited to, loss of profits, loss
of rents or other revenues, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of use, in each case, however occurring. 
 29.14
Entire Agreement. It is understood and acknowledged that there are no oral agreements between the parties hereto affecting this Lease and this Lease constitutes the parties’ entire agreement with respect to the leasing of the
Premises and supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, brochures, agreements and understandings, if any, between the parties hereto or displayed by Landlord to Tenant with respect to the subject matter thereof, and none
thereof shall be used to interpret or construe this Lease. None of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease can be modified, deleted or added to except in writing signed by the parties hereto. 

29.15 Right to Lease. Landlord reserves the absolute right to effect such other tenancies in the Project as Landlord in the
exercise of its sole business judgment shall determine to best promote the interests of the Building or Project. Tenant does not rely on the fact, nor does Landlord represent, that any specific tenant or type or number of tenants shall, during the
Lease Term, occupy any space in the Building or Project. 
 29.16 Force Majeure. Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to
strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God, acts of war, terrorist acts, governmental action or inaction, inability to obtain services, labor, or materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, governmental actions including delays in issuing
permits, civil commotions, fire or 

  
 -40- 

 
other casualty, and other causes beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform, except with respect to the obligations imposed with regard to Rent and other charges to be paid
by Tenant pursuant to this Lease (collectively, a “Force Majeure”), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, shall excuse the performance of such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or
stoppage and, therefore, if this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an obligation of either party, that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in such party’s performance caused by a Force Majeure. 

29.17 Waiver of Redemption by Tenant. Tenant hereby waives, for Tenant and for all those claiming under Tenant, any and all
rights now or hereafter existing to redeem by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, Tenant’s right of occupancy of the Premises after any termination of this Lease. 

29.18 Notices. All notices, demands, statements, designations, approvals or other communications (collectively,
“Notices”) given or required to be given by either party to the other hereunder or by law shall be in writing, shall be (A) sent by United States certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested
(“Mail”), (B) delivered by a nationally recognized overnight courier, or (C) delivered personally. Any Notice shall be sent, transmitted, or delivered, as the case may be, to Tenant at the appropriate address set forth in Section
11 of the Summary, or to such other place as Tenant may from time to time designate in a Notice to Landlord, or to Landlord at the addresses set forth below, or to such other places as Landlord may from time to time designate in a Notice to
Tenant. Any Notice will be deemed given (i) three (3) days after the date it is posted if sent by Mail, (ii) the date the overnight courier delivery is made, or (iii) the date personal delivery is made. As of the date of this Lease, any Notices to

any other relief against the other, then all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the prevailing party therein shall be paid by the other party, which obligation on the part of the other party shall be deemed to
have accrued on the date of the commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not the action is prosecuted to judgment. 

  
 -41- 

 29.22 Governing Law; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. This Lease shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina. Landlord and Tenant waive trial by jury in any action to which they are parties, and further agree that any action arising out of this Lease (except an action for possession by
Landlord, which may be brought in whatever manner or place provided by law) shall be brought in the Trial Court, Superior Court Department, in the county where the Premises are located. 

29.23 Submission of Lease. Submission of this instrument for examination or signature by Tenant does not constitute a
reservation of, option for or option to lease, and it is not effective as a lease or otherwise until execution and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant.

occurring by, through, or under the indemnifying party. The terms of this Section 29.24 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. 

29.25 Independent Covenants. This Lease shall be construed as though the covenants herein between Landlord and Tenant are
independent and not dependent and Tenant hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute to the contrary and agrees that if Landlord fails to perform its obligations set forth herein, Tenant shall not be entitled to make any repairs or perform
any acts hereunder at Landlord’s expense or to any setoff of the Rent or other amounts owing hereunder against Landlord.

Direct Expenses. 
 29.29.2 Construction of Property and Other Improvements. Tenant acknowledges that portions of the Project
and/or the Other Improvements may be under construction following Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, and that such construction may result in levels of noise, dust, obstruction of access, etc. which are in excess of that present in a fully
constructed project. Tenant hereby waives any and all rent offsets or claims of constructive eviction which may arise in connection with such construction. 

  
 -42- 

 29.30 No Violation. Tenant hereby warrants and represents that neither its
execution of nor performance under this Lease shall cause Tenant to be in violation of any agreement, instrument, contract, law, rule or regulation by which Tenant is bound, and Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless

shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) use an experienced and qualified contractor approved in writing by Landlord, and (iii) comply with all of the other provisions of Articles 7 and 8 of this Lease. For any

29.32 Transportation Management. Tenant shall fully comply with all present or future programs intended to manage parking,
transportation or traffic in and around the Project and/or the Building, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall take responsible action for the transportation planning and management of all employees located at the Premises by working directly
with Landlord, any governmental transportation management organization or any other transportation-related committees or entities. Such programs may include, without limitation: (i) restrictions on the number of peak-hour vehicle trips generated by
Tenant; (ii) increased vehicle occupancy; (iii) implementation of an in-house ridesharing program and an employee transportation coordinator; (iv) working with employees and any Project, Building or area-wide ridesharing program manager; (v)

TENANT WORK LETTER 

This Tenant Work Letter sets forth the terms and conditions relating to the construction of the initial tenant improvements in the Premises.
This Tenant Work Letter is essentially organized chronologically and addresses the issues of the construction of the Premises, in sequence, as such issues will arise during the actual construction of the Premises. All references in this Tenant Work
Letter to Articles or Sections of “this Lease” shall mean the relevant portion of the Lease to which this Tenant Work Letter is attached as Exhibit D and of which this Tenant Work Letter forms a part, and all references in this Tenant Work
Letter to Sections of “this Tenant Work Letter” shall mean the relevant portion of this Tenant Work Letter. 
  

	 	1.	LANDLORD’S INITIAL CONSTRUCTION IN THE PREMISES 

 1.1 Landlord Work. There
shall be no Landlord work and Landlord shall deliver the Premises in its “as-is, where-is” subject to the provisions below. 
  

	 	2.	TENANT IMPROVEMENTS 

 2.1 Tenant Improvements Allowance. Tenant shall be entitled
to a tenant improvement allowance (the “Tenant Improvements Allowance”) in the maximum aggregate amount of One Hundred Seven and 00/100 Dollars ($107.00) per rentable square foot of the entire Premises (the “Tenant
Improvements Allowance”) for the hard costs and soft costs incurred by Landlord or Tenant relating to the initial design and construction of all phases of Tenant’s improvements which are to be permanently affixed to the Premises in
accordance with this Work Letter (the “Tenant Improvements”), including, without limitation, out-of-pocket professional fees, permitting costs, impact fees, and a 4% project management fee payable to Landlord or its affiliates and
permits. The project management fee shall also apply to any costs paid by Tenant in excess of the Tenant Improvements Allowance and to any design costs related to Tenant Improvements even if such design costs arise out of services performed prior to
the Effective Date. The Landlord agrees to keep the Tenant advised as to the progress of the work by providing copies of the Contractor’s applications for payment. All Tenant Improvements for which the Tenant Improvements Allowance has been
made available shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of the Lease. 
 2.2 Disbursement of the Tenant Improvements
Allowance. Except as otherwise set forth in this Tenant Work Letter, the Tenant Improvements Allowance shall be disbursed by Landlord (each of which disbursements shall be made pursuant to Landlord’s reasonable disbursement process) for
costs incurred by Landlord related to the construction of the Tenant Improvements and for the following items and costs (collectively, the “Tenant Improvements Allowance Items”): (i) payment of the fees of the
“Architect” as that term is defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work Letter in connection with the preparation and review of the “Construction Documents,” as that term is defined in Section 3.1 of this Tenant Work
Letter; (ii) payment of the project management fee described above, (iii) the cost of any changes to the Construction Documents or Tenant Improvements required by all applicable building codes (the “Code”) enacted after approval of
the Construction Documents, (iv) costs payable to the Contractor and any subcontractors, and (v) other costs incurred in connection with the Tenant Improvements to the extent the same can be paid using the Tenant Improvements Allowance pursuant to
the specific provisions of this Tenant Work Letter. Any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance not utilized in accordance with the Lease and this Work Letter within twelve (12) months after the Rent Commencement Date shall be deemed forfeited
by Tenant and retained by Landlord. 
  

	 	3.	CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS 

 3.1 Landlord shall cause Landlord’s representative (J.
Randal Long) to retain a MHA Works (the “Architect”), and Advanced Process Solutions (the “Consulting Engineers”) as subcontractors to prepare the “Construction Documents,” as that term is defined in this Section
3.1 for the Tenant Improvements, together with the 

  
 -1- 

 
design/build contractor (TBD) selected by the Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. Landlord may cause Landlord’s design/build contractor to retain another Architect or Architects from
time to time, provided, however, that any such other Architects shall be subject to Tenant’s reasonable approval. The plans and drawings to be prepared by Architect hereunder shall be known collectively as the “Construction
Documents.” All Construction Documents shall comply with the drawing format and specifications as determined by Landlord, and shall be subject to Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval. Tenant may hire an architectural firm reasonably
approved by Landlord to conduct a peer review, and the fees associated with this peer review shall be paid solely by Tenant. 
 Landlord has
no obligation to approve or perform any Tenant Change or any Tenant Improvements not shown on the plans previously approved by Landlord and Tenant or reasonably inferable therefrom if, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, such Tenant Improvements
(i) would delay completion of the Tenant Improvements, (ii) intentionally omitted; (iii) would materially increase the cost of performing any other work in the Building, unless in each case Tenant agrees to pay such costs based on Landlord’s
Change Estimate Notice (as defined below), (iv) are incompatible with the design, quality, equipment or systems of the Building or otherwise require a change to the existing Building systems or structure, each in a manner that would not otherwise be
required in connection with the improvements contemplated by the Fit Plan (as defined below), (v) is not consistent the first class nature of the Building, or (vi) otherwise do not comply with the provisions of the Lease. 

3.2 Final Space Plan. Tenant has approved the preliminary space plan prepared by the Architect, on behalf of the Contractor, attached
as Attachment 1 hereto (the “Fit Plan”). Landlord shall cause the Architect prepare a space plan for Tenant for the Premises which space plan shall be reasonably consistent with the uses and functions of the Fit Plan and
shall include a layout and designation of all manufacturing areas, labs, offices, rooms and other partitioning, their intended use, and equipment to be contained therein, and shall deliver the space plan to Landlord and Tenant for their approval.
Landlord and Tenant shall review and provide any changes to the space plan within five Business Days of receipt thereof (and if Tenant shall fail to object thereto within such five Business Day period, then such space plan shall be deemed approved
by Tenant) and the Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Architect to prepare and circulate a modified plan within five Business Days of its receipt of any requested changes from Tenant or Landlord. Such process of submittal and
response within the time frame specified in the preceding sentence shall continue until each of Landlord and Tenant gives written approval to such space plan. Once Landlord and Tenant approve the final space plan, the space plan shall be considered
final (the “Final Space Plan”). 
 3.3 Construction Documents. Landlord shall cause Landlord’s Architect to
complete final Construction Documents consistent with the Final Space Plan and shall submit the same to Landlord and Tenant for their approval. Landlord and Tenant shall review and provide any changes to the construction documents within five
Business Days of receipt thereof, and the Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Architect to prepare and circulate modified documents within five Business Days of its receipt of any requested changes from Tenant or Landlord. Such
process of submittal and response within the time frame specified in the preceding sentence shall continue until each of Landlord and Tenant gives written approval to such documents, and the Construction Documents shall be considered final once
approved by the Landlord and the Tenant. In no event may either Tenant or Landlord require any changes that are inconsistent with the Final Space Plan unless required by Applicable Law. The Construction Documents shall comply with Applicable Laws
existing on the date of this Work Letter and which may be enacted prior to Tenant’s approval of completed Construction Documents. Subject to the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 5.4 of this Work Letter, Tenant may, from time to time, by written
order to Landlord on a form reasonably specified by Landlord (“Tenant Change”), request a change in the Tenant Improvements shown on the Construction Documents, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned, and
shall be granted or denied within five (5) business days after delivery of such Tenant Change to Landlord. The Over-Allowance Amount shall be adjusted for any Tenant Change as further contemplated by Section 5.4, below. 

3.4 Permits. The Construction Documents as approved (or deemed approved) pursuant to Section 3.3 shall be the “Approved Working
Drawings”. Following Tenant’s approval or deemed approval of the Cost Proposal, as described below, Landlord shall promptly thereafter submit or cause to be submitted, the Approved Working Drawings to the appropriate municipal
authorities for all applicable building permits necessary to allow “Contractor,” as that term is defined in Section 4.1, below, to commence and fully complete the construction of the applicable Tenant Improvements (the
“Permits”). 
 3.5 Time Deadlines. The applicable dates for approval of items, plans and drawings as described in
this Section 3, Section 4, below, and in this Tenant Work Letter are set forth and further elaborated upon in Attachment 2 (the “Time Deadlines”), attached hereto.

 4. CONSTRUCTION OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS 

4.1 Contractor. A design/build contractor designated by Landlord and approved by Tenant (“Contractor”) shall construct the
Tenant Improvements. 
 4.2 Cost Proposal. After the Approved Working Drawings are approved by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall
provide Tenant with a cost proposal (or cost proposals) in accordance with the Approved Working Drawings, which cost proposal(s) shall include, as nearly as possible, the cost of all Tenant Improvements Allowance Items to be incurred by Tenant in
connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements and shall include a so-called guaranteed maximum price proposal from Landlord’s Contractor (collectively, the “Cost Proposal”), which Cost Proposal shall
include, among other things, the Contractor’s fee, general conditions, and a reasonable contingency. The Cost Proposal may include early trade release packages for long lead time matters such as mechanical equipment. In connection with the Cost
Proposal, Landlord shall cause the Contractor to solicit at least three bids from each subcontractor trade for which the total cost is expected to exceed $10,000. Tenant shall have the right to propose one subcontractor to be included in the bidding
for each trade, subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval. Landlord will consult with Tenant prior to approving the subcontractors (including the Architect and Consulting Engineers) to whom it will be bid and Tenant may review bid packages at
Tenant’s request. In the case of each bid request, Landlord will accept the lowest responsible bid, unless Landlord and Tenant reasonably determine otherwise. Tenant shall approve and deliver the Cost Proposal to Landlord within five Business
Days of the receipt of the same (and if Tenant fails to comment on the Cost Proposal within such five Business Day period then Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the Cost Proposal), provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to request
Tenant Changes to the Approved Working Drawings within such five Business Days, following its receipt of the Cost Proposal for the purpose of value engineering (in which event the Landlord will cause its contractor to provide a new Cost Proposal to
Landlord and Tenant following its receipt and approval of modified drawing showing such Tenant Change (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)). Upon Tenant’s approval, or deemed approval, of a Cost Proposal by
Landlord, Landlord shall be released by Tenant to cause the Contractor to purchase the items set forth in the Cost Proposal and to commence the construction relating to such items. The date on which Tenant approves or is deemed to approve the Cost
Proposal shall be known hereafter as the “Cost Proposal Delivery Date”. 
 4.3 Construction of Tenant Improvements by
Contractor. 
 4.3.1 Over-Allowance Amount. Not later than five (5) business days after the Cost Proposal Delivery Date, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord cash in an amount (the “Over-Allowance Amount”), if any, equal to 100% of the difference between (i) the amount of the Cost Proposal and (ii) the amount of the remaining unutilized Tenant Improvements
Allowance. The Over-Allowance Amount shall be disbursed by Landlord prior to the disbursement of any of the Tenant Improvements Allowance, and such disbursement shall be pursuant to the same procedure as the Tenant Improvements Allowance. In the
event that, after the applicable Cost Proposal Delivery Date, any revisions, changes, or substitutions shall be made to the Construction Documents or the Tenant Improvements, then, subject to Section 5.4, below, to the extent that the amount of the
Cost Proposal plus any additional costs which arise in connection with such revisions, changes or substitutions or any other additional costs exceeds the sum of the Tenant Improvements Allowance and any Over-Allowance Amounts previously funded by
Tenant, such excess costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately upon Landlord’s request as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, all Tenant Improvements paid for by the Over-Allowance Amount
shall be deemed Landlord’s property under the terms of the Lease. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Tenant shall be responsible for all costs associated with the Tenant Improvements to the extent the same exceed the Tenant Improvements
Allowance (notwithstanding the content of the Cost Proposal). 
 4.3.2 Landlord’s Retention of Contractor. Landlord shall
independently retain Contractor to construct the Tenant Improvements in accordance with the applicable Approved Working Drawings and the applicable Cost Proposal. The Tenant shall be entitled to review the Landlord’s construction contract with
the Contractor upon Tenant’s written request. The Landlord shall manage the Contractor in its performance of the construction work and endeavor to oversee the Contractor’s performance of its work to protect the Tenant from construction
defects.

 5. COMPLETION OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS; 

LEASE COMMENCEMENT DATE 

5.1 Substantial Completion. Landlord shall give Tenant at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of the date that Landlord
reasonably anticipates that the Landlord Work and Tenant Improvements will be Substantially Complete (as defined below); provided, however, Landlord’s failure to accurately estimate such date shall in no event affect the actual date of
Substantial Completion or any other obligations of Landlord or Tenant hereunder. For purposes of this Lease, “Substantial Completion” shall occur upon the completion of the last of the following to occur: (i) the completion of
construction of the Landlord Work and the Tenant Improvements substantially pursuant to the Approved Working Drawings for such Tenant Improvements (each as reasonably determined by Landlord), with the exception of any punch list items which do not
impair Tenant’s ability to occupy the Premises for their contemplated use, (ii) the acquisition of a certificate of occupancy or its legal equivalent allowing occupancy of the Premises (a “Sign Off”), (iii) all base building
systems are operational and fully-commissioned except to the extent effected by the Tenant Improvements, which commissioning shall be part of the punchlist described below, (iv) delivery of the Premises to Tenant, and (v) delivery of a certificate
of substantial completion from the Architect on behalf of the Contractor confirming the matters set forth in the foregoing clause (i). In the event that the Sign Off is not a final certificate of occupancy, Landlord shall diligently prosecute the
work necessary to achieve a full certificate of occupancy and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such full certificate of occupancy as soon as reasonably practicable following Substantial Completion. 

5.2 Delay of the Substantial Completion of the Premises. Except as provided in this Section 5.2, the Rent Commencement Date shall occur
as set forth in the Lease. Each of the following shall constitute a “Tenant Delay” to the extent such matter actually causes a delay in Substantial Completion and cannot reasonably be avoided without additional cost: 

5.2.1 Tenant’s failure to comply with the Time Deadlines; 

5.2.2 Tenant’s failure to timely approve any matter requiring Tenant’s approval within the time periods set forth herein (which, for
avoidance of doubt, shall mean any period longer than five business days or such shorter time period as may be required hereunder) except to the extent that Tenant is deemed to consent to any such request for approval in accordance with the terms of
this Work Letter; 
 5.2.3 A breach by Tenant of the material terms of this Tenant Work Letter or the Lease (provided that Landlord shall
provide Tenant prior written notice specifying the nature of the breach and resulting delay under this clause (c)); 
 5.2.4 Any Tenant
Change (including value engineering changes described in Section 4.2, above); 
 5.2.5 Tenant’s insistence on materials, components,
finishes or improvements which are not available in a commercially reasonable time given the anticipated date of Substantial Completion, as set forth in the Lease, after having been informed, in writing, by Landlord that such materials, components,
finishes or improvements will cause a delay in completion of the Tenant Improvements; or 
 5.2.6 Any other act or omission of Tenant or
anyone acting by, through or under Tenant that causes a delay in construction work or any process described in this Tenant Work Letter (provided that Landlord shall provide Tenant prior written notice specifying the nature of the acts or omissions
giving rise to the delay and the resulting delay under this clause (f)); and/or 
 5.2.7 Any act or omission of Tenant or anyone acting by,
through or under Tenant that causes a delay in the issuance of the Sign Off ((provided that Landlord shall provide Tenant prior written notice specifying the acts or omissions giving rise to the delay and the resulting delay under this clause (g)).

  
 -4- 

 Any increased costs of the Tenant Improvements resulting from Tenant Delay shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord
immediately upon Landlord’s request as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount. 
 Landlord and Tenant have agreed to determine the
length of any Tenant Delay as follows: 
 (i) any delays pursuant to clause “(5.2.1)” and “(5.2.2”) in the definition of
Tenant Delay in the definition of Tenant Delay shall be equal to one day for each day that the applicable Tenant Delay continues beyond the applicable time period required under this Lease, and (ii) with respect to any other Tenant Delay, Landlord
shall notify Tenant in writing (which may be in e-mail format) of the claimed estimated length of such Tenant Delay within 10 business days after its occurrence and Tenant may elect by written notice delivered to the other within 10 business days
thereafter to dispute the claimed estimated Delay. Unless such estimate is disputed by written notice delivered within such 10 business day period, the length of such Delay shall be no less the claimed estimated Delay. 

5.3 Walk-through and Punchlist. After the Tenant Improvements are Substantially Completed and prior to Tenant’s move-in into the
Premises, following two (2) days’ advance written notice from Tenant to Landlord, Landlord shall cause the Contractor to inspect the Premises with a representative of Tenant and complete a punch list of unfinished items of the Tenant
Improvements. After Landlord and Tenant have mutually agreed upon the punch list, authorized representatives for Landlord and Tenant shall execute said punch list. The items listed on such punch list shall be completed by the Contractor within
thirty (30) days after the approval of such punch list or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, provided that in the event a punch list item reasonably requires longer than thirty (30) days to complete, then Landlord shall cause Contractor
to commence the completion of such particular item within thirty (30) days and diligently pursue the same to completion. The terms of this Section 5.3 will not affect the occurrence of the Substantial Completion of the Premises or the occurrence of
the Rent Commencement Date. 
 5.4 Tenant Changes. At the request of the Tenant for a Tenant Change, Landlord may approve, such
approval to not be unreasonably withheld, any Tenant Change on the condition that Tenant shall pay in full, in advance (or cause to be paid in full from the Tenant Improvements Allowance), any and all additional costs or expenses associated with the
approval of said Tenant Change. If Tenant shall request any Tenant Change, Landlord shall provide Tenant in writing (a “Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice”) the estimated costs of design and/or construction of the Tenant
Improvements or Landlord Work that Landlord determines will be incurred as a consequence of such Tenant Change on an order of magnitude basis and shall provide Tenant with the estimated Tenant Delay, if any, on account of such proposed Tenant
Change. Tenant shall, within three Business Days following receipt of Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice, notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with the applicable Tenant Change or withdraw such Tenant Change. Tenant’s
failure to respond in such three Business Day period shall be deemed to be a withdrawal of the applicable Tenant Change. The cost of any Tenant Change shall be determined on a net basis; i.e. taking into account the savings, if any, resulting from
such Tenant Change. To the extent that there is no remaining unutilized Tenant Improvements Allowance, the Over-Allowance Amount shall be adjusted for any Tenant Change. If and to the extent that Landlord initiates any change orders in the Tenant
Improvements, such change orders shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense to the extent that the net cost of such changes exceed the costs that would have been incurred but for such change. Without limiting the generality of any provisions
of this Tenant Work Letter, Tenant acknowledges that any extension of time due to a Tenant Change will not cause an extension of any Rent Commencement Date. Landlord shall be authorized to proceed with work described in a Tenant Change upon receipt
of Tenant’s notice to proceed following the giving of Landlord’s Change Estimate Notice. 
 5.5 Delay Not Caused by
Parties. Neither the Landlord nor Tenant shall be considered to be in default of the provisions of this Tenant Work Letter for delays in performance due to Force Majeure. 

5.6 Warranty. Except for uncompleted items of Tenant Improvements specified in the punchlist described in Section 5.3, above, and for
latent defects, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted all elements of Tenant Improvements on the date of Substantial Completion. In the case of a dispute concerning the completion of items of Tenant Improvements specified in the punchlist, such
items shall be deemed completed and accepted by Tenant upon the delivery to Tenant of a certificate of the Architect on behalf of the Contractor that such items have been completed unless the certification reasonably is disputed by Tenant by a
notice to Landlord given within ten (10) Business Days of Landlord’s delivery of the certification to Tenant. In the case of latent defects in Tenant Improvements appearing after the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall be deemed to have waived
any claim for correction or cure thereof 

  
 -5- 

 
on the date that is 11 months following the date of Substantial Completion of the applicable work if Tenant has not then given notice of such defect to Landlord. For the purposes of this Lease,
“latent defects” shall mean defects in the construction of the Tenant Improvements that are not readily observable by visible inspection at the time the punchlist is prepared or cannot be ascertained by reason of seasonality. Landlord
shall cause Landlord’s contractor so to remedy, repair or replace any such latent defects identified by Tenant within the foregoing time periods, together with any damage caused to the Tenant Improvements on account of such defects, such action
to occur as soon as practicable during normal working hours and so as to avoid any unreasonable interruption of Tenant’s use of the Premises. If timely and adequate notice has been given and if Landlord has other guarantees, contract rights, or
other claims against contractors, materialmen, architects, suppliers or manufacturers with respect to the Tenant Improvements or any portion thereof, Landlord shall also exercise commercially reasonable efforts to enforce such guarantees or contract
rights for Tenant’s benefit upon its request. The foregoing shall constitute Landlord’s entire obligation with respect to all latent defects in the Tenant Improvements. 

5.7 Delivery. Landlord’s failure to Substantially Complete the Tenant Improvements by any particular time, shall not give rise to
any liability of Landlord hereunder, shall not constitute Landlord’s default, and shall not affect the validity of this Lease. 
 6.
MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1 Tenant’s Entry Into the Premises Prior to Substantial Completion. Provided that Tenant and its agents
do not interfere with Contractor’s work in the Building and the Premises, Contractor shall allow Tenant access to the Premises prior to Substantial Completion for the purpose of Tenant installing Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment
(including Tenant’s data and telephone equipment) in the Premises. Prior to Tenant’s entry into the Premises as permitted by the terms of this Section 6.1, Tenant shall submit a schedule to Landlord and Contractor, for their approval,
which schedule shall detail the timing and purpose of Tenant’s entry. Tenant’s entry pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be subject to all applicable provisions of the Lease other than the obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent for
Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses. 
 As a condition to Tenant’s entry into the Premises prior to Substantial Completion, Tenant
shall comply with and perform, and shall cause its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers and laborers to comply with and perform, all of Tenant’s insurance and indemnity obligations and other obligations governing
the conduct of Tenant at the Property under this Lease. 
 Any independent contractor of Tenant (or any employee or agent of Tenant)
performing any work or inspections in the Premises prior to Substantial Completion shall be subject to all of the terms, conditions and requirements contained in the Lease (including without limitation the provisions of Article 10) and, prior to
such entry, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence of the insurance coverages required pursuant to Article 10. Tenant and any Tenant contractor performing any work or inspections in the Premises prior to Substantial Completion shall use
reasonable efforts not to interfere in any way with construction of the Tenant Improvements, and shall not damage the common areas or other parts of the Building. Neither Tenant, nor any Tenant contractor performing any work or inspections in the
Premises prior to Substantial Completion shall cause any labor disharmony, and Tenant shall be responsible for all costs required to produce labor harmony in connection with an entry under this Section 6.1. 

Any requirements of any Tenant contractor performing any work or inspections in the Premises prior to Substantial Completion for services from
Landlord or Landlord’s contractor, such as hoisting, electrical or mechanical needs, shall be paid for by Tenant and arranged between such Tenant contractor and Landlord or Landlord’s contractor based on the actual, reasonable cost thereof
determined on a time and materials basis. Should the work of any Tenant contractor performing any work or inspections in the Premises prior to Substantial Completion depend on the installed field conditions of any item of Tenant Improvements, such
Tenant contractor shall ascertain such field conditions after installation of such item of Tenant Improvements, provided, however, both parties shall cooperate with each other in order to maximize cost and scheduling efficiencies wherever reasonably
practicable so long as Landlord is not delayed in the performance of the Tenant Improvements or required to incur any additional expense not borne by Tenant hereunder. Neither Landlord nor Landlord’s contractor shall ever be required or obliged
to alter the method, time or manner for performing Tenant Improvements or work elsewhere in the Building, on account of the work of any such 

  
 -6- 

 
Tenant contractor. Tenant shall cause each Tenant contractor performing work on the Premises prior to Substantial Completion to clean up regularly and remove its debris from the Premises and
Building. Any work performed by Tenant pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be performed in accordance with the applicable provisions of Article 8 of the Lease. 

6.2 Tenant’s Representative. Tenant has designated Jeff N. Hunter as its sole representative with respect to the matters set forth
in this Tenant Work Letter, who, until further notice to Landlord, shall have full authority and responsibility to act on behalf of the Tenant as required in this Tenant Work Letter. 

6.3 Landlord’s Representative. Landlord has designated J. Randal Long as its sole representative with respect to the matters set
forth in this Tenant Work Letter, who, until further notice to Tenant, shall have full authority and responsibility to act on behalf of the Landlord as required in this Tenant Work Letter. 

6.4 Time of the Essence in This Tenant Work Letter. Unless otherwise indicated, all references herein to a “number of days”
shall mean and refer to calendar days. 
 6.5 General. This Work Letter shall not be deemed applicable to any additional space added
to the Premises at any time or from time to time, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, or to any portion of the Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or extension of the original Lease Term, whether by
any options under the Lease or otherwise, unless and to the extent expressly provided in the Lease or any amendment or supplement to the Lease that such additional space is to be delivered to Tenant in the same condition the initial Premises is to
be delivered. 
 6.6 Phased Delivery. The parties acknowledge that the Tenant Improvements shall be conducted in Phases. Landlord
shall deliver Phase 1 of the Premises upon Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements within Phase 1. Landlord shall deliver Phase 2 of the Premises upon Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements within Phase 2. 

6.7 Early Entry. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to provide Tenant and Tenant’s licensed contractors with access to the
Phase 1 prior to the Rent Commencement Date for Phase 1 for among other things, Tenant’s installation of its furniture, fixtures, cabling and equipment within Phase 1, provided (i) Tenant has obtained all insurance required hereunder to be
maintained by Tenant, (ii) such early access by Tenant and its contractors does not in any way interfere with Landlord’s completion of the Tenant Improvements, (iii) Tenant’s access to Phase 1 is coordinated in advance with Landlord’s
contractor, and (iv) Tenant’s occupancy of Phase 1 prior to the Rent Commencement Date otherwise complies with all other applicable terms and conditions of this Lease.

reasonable Rules and Regulations as in Landlord’s judgment may from time to time be necessary for the management, safety, care and cleanliness of the Premises, Building, the Common Areas and the Project, and for the preservation of good order

the terms of this Lease shall prevail. Landlord may waive any one or more of these Rules and Regulations for the benefit of any particular tenants, but no such waiver by Landlord shall be construed as a waiver of such Rules and Regulations in favor
of any other tenant, nor prevent Landlord from thereafter enforcing any such Rules or Regulations against any or all tenants of the Project. Tenant shall be deemed to have read these Rules and Regulations and to have agreed to abide by them as a
condition of its occupancy of the Premises.

 A.
Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Lease dated August 17, 2015 (the “Lease”), covering approximately 51,350 rentable square feet (the “Premises”) in that certain office
building located at 4105 Hopson Road, Durham, North Carolina (the “Building”). 
 B. Landlord and
Tenant now desire to further amend the Lease as set forth below. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Amendment, capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the same meanings as in the Lease. 

FOR GOOD AND VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Estoppel Certificates. Article 17 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 

“Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an
estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit F, attached hereto (or such other form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion
thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Any such certificate may be relied
upon by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Project. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. Failure of Tenant to execute, acknowledge and deliver such
estoppel certificate or other instruments within five (5) business days after a second notice to Tenant regarding same shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel
certificate are true and correct, without exception. Additionally, no more often than twice per year, at any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord with a current financial statement and financial statements of
the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent
certified public accountant, provided, however, Tenant shall not be required to provide financial statements if Tenant is a publicly traded company and makes public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission at least quarterly which are
accessible by Landlord and which contain an accurate statement of Tenant’s financial condition.” 
 2. Broker. Landlord and
Tenant represent and warrant each to the other that they have not dealt with any broker(s) or any other person claiming any entitlement to any commission in connection with this Amendment. Tenant agrees to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from
and against any and all claims, suits, liabilities, costs, judgments and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, for any leasing commissions or other commissions, fees, charges or 

  

			
	Confidential Information	 	1

 
reasonable attorneys’ fees, for any leasing commissions or other commissions, fees, charges or payments due, owing, or made to a broker purportedly representing Tenant in connection with
this Amendment. 
 3. Execution of Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each counterpart being
executed by less than all of the parties hereto, and shall be equally effective as if a single original had been signed by all parties; but all such counterparts shall be deemed to constitute a single agreement, and this Amendment shall not be or
become effective unless and until each of the signatory parties below has signed at least one such counterpart and caused the counterpart so executed to be delivered to both of the other parties. 

4. Authority. Each individual signing this Amendment on behalf of any party hereto represents that he or she has full right, power and
authority to enter into this Amendment and to bind such party for which he or she purports to sign this Amendment. 
 5. Binding
Agreement. This Amendment is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of all parties hereto, and to their respective heirs, executors, administrators, predecessors, successors, assigns, parents and subsidiary corporations, divisions,
officers, directors, partners, agents, attorneys, and employees, as applicable. 
 6. Ratification. Except as expressly or by
necessary implication amended or modified hereby, the terms of the Lease are hereby ratified, confirmed and continued in full force and effect.

this Agreement, including without limitation full power and authority to convey all of its right, title and interest in and to the Shares. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Stockholder and is a valid and legally binding
obligation of the Stockholder, enforceable against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms. The execution and delivery of, and performance under, this Agreement by the Stockholder will not (i) violate or conflict with the rights of any
