 RECITALS 
 A. Pursuant to a certain Lease dated
March 29th, 2012 (as such prime lease may be amended from time to time, the “Prime Lease”), by and between Sublessor, as lessee, SOUND SHORES PARTNER LLC, as Lessor (“Prime Lessor”), Sublessor leased from Prime

“Property”). 
 B. Sublessor desires to sublet to Sublessee a portion of the Premises consisting
of 1,740 sq. ft. as outlined on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof (the “Subleased Premises”), and Sublessee desires to sublet the Subleased Premises from Sublessor, all in
accordance with the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth. 
 C. Sublessor and Sublessee shall share
and have non-exclusive, common access to and use of, the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined), on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The “Common Areas” shall include, without limitation, the waiting area, hallways,
kitchen, restrooms mail/copy room, conference rooms and six (6) parking spaces in the Property’s covered parking facilities, as the foregoing areas may be changed, reduced or expanded from time to time in Sublessor’s sole discretion
(provided, however, that such change or reduction shall not unreasonable limit Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises), and including such other areas as Sublessor may designate as Common Areas from time to time. 

AGREEMENT 
 IN CONSIDERATION of the foregoing recitals, the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby mutually acknowledged,
it is agreed by and between the parties as follows: 
 1. DEMISE, POSSESSION AND TERM. Sublessor hereby subleases to Sublessee,
and Sublessee hereby subleases from Sublessor, the Subleased Premises for a term (the “Term”) commencing on April 1, 2012 or upon the Commencement Date as defined in the Prime Lease, whichever date is later (the
“Sublease Commencement Date”) and ending on March 31, 2014 (the “Sublease Expiration Date”), unless extended or sooner terminated as provided herein. Sublessee shall be deemed to be in possession of the
Subleased Premises as of the Sublease Commencement Date. Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that Sublessor has the option to renew the Prime Lease (“Renewal Option”) for one (1) two-year term (“Renewal Term”) to be exercised
within 6 months prior to the termination of the Sublease Expiration Date (“Option Exercise Period”). Landlord agrees to notify Tenant in writing of its intention to exercise the Renewal Option at least 30 days prior to the Option Exercise
Period. If Sublessee (i) gives written notice to Sublessor, within such 30 days period, 

 
of its intention to renew this Sublease, which renewal shall be for the Renewal Term, or (ii) fails to reply to Sublessor within such 30 day period, and provided Sublessor does exercise the
Renewal Option, the Term of this Sublease shall automatically be extended to expire on the same date as the Prime Lease. Notwithstanding such automatic extension, Sublessor may require Sublessee to, and Sublessee shall, enter into an amendment to
this Sublease documenting the extension of the Term. Sublessor and Sublessee further agree that if the term of the Prime Lease terminates early or expires for any reason whatsoever, the Term of this Sublease shall automatically expire as of the date
of such early termination or expiration of the Prime Lease. 
 2. RENT. 

2.1. Base Rent. Commencing on April 1, 2012 and continuing thereafter on the first day of each and every calendar month
during the term of this Sublease, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as base rent for the Subleased Premises, monthly rent (the “Base Rent”) for each calendar month or portion thereof during the Term of this Sublease as follows:

  

			
	Dates:	  	Monthly Base Rent:
	April 1, 2012 – March 31, 2013	  	$5,763.75
	April 1, 2013 – March 31, 2014	  	$5,908.75

 If Sublessor exercises the renewal option under the Prime Lease, and subject to the terms of Paragraph 1 above, the term
of this Sublease shall automatically and without further action of the parties be deemed to be extended to be coterminous with the Prime Lease, and the Base Rent payable for this Sublease during the renewal term(s) shall be equal to the current Base
Rent payable by Sublessee under the Sublease with $1.00 per rentable square foot annual increase for each of the following years over the previous year’s rent for the balance of the Option Term, as that term is defined in the Prime Lease.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and provided Sublessee is not in default under the Sublease
beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Sublessee shall receive a rental credit in the amount of $5,365.00, which Sublessee shall apply in one (1) installment towards the first (1st) month rent following the Sublease Commencement Date. 

2.2. Additional Rent. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as additional rent for the Subleased Premises (the following,
collectively, “Additional Rent”), a sum equal to forty-seven percent (47%) of: (a) all amounts due as “Additional Charges” under the Prime Lease or any other fees and charges payable under the Prime Lease
(whether payable to Prime Lessor or any other party) with respect to the term of the Prime Lease, including, without limitation, Tax Payments (as defined in the Prime Lease), Operating Expenses (as defined in the Prime Lease), and utilities (to the
extend not already included in the Base Rent) (b) all amounts, fees or charges paid or incurred by Sublessor in connection with the performance of any obligations under the Prime Lease, including, without limitation, the maintenance, repair and
replacement of all or any part of the Property as set forth in Section 14 of the Prime Lease, and (c) in addition to all costs incurred to comply with the Prime Lease, all amounts, fees or charges paid or incurred by Sublessor in
connection with the operation, maintenance, repair, replacement and upkeep of the Common Areas, including, without limitation, all amounts paid or incurred for office supplies; maintenance, repair and replacement of photocopiers, scanners, fax
machines; stocking and maintaining the kitchen; furniture repair or replacement; and any janitorial or custodial maintenance beyond what is required in the Prime Lease. During the Term, Additional Rent payable pursuant to this
Section 2.2 shall be paid in monthly installments in amounts determined by Sublessor and at such other intervals as are required under the Prime Lease, on or before the last business day of each calendar month during the Term, or within
five (5) business days after receipt of a written request from Sublessor for payments that are not regularly scheduled monthly payments under the Prime Lease.

subordinate in all respects to the Prime Lease, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no provision hereof granting Sublessee any power, right, benefit or privilege shall be operative or effective, if and to the extent that

 5. USE. Sublessee shall not allow the Subleased Premises or any Common Areas to be used for
any purpose or in any manner that could increase the premium payable for any insurance thereon, nor for any purpose other than the use(s) permitted under the Prime Lease. Sublessee shall not, at any time, use or occupy, or suffer or permit anyone to
use or occupy, the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any portion of the Property, or permit anything to be done in the Subleased Premises, the Common Areas or any portion of the Property, in any manner that does or may (a) violate any

interfere with the rights of any or all of Sublessor, other tenants or licensees, or any other person entitled to use the Common Areas. Sublessor, from time to time, may change any or all of the size, location, nature and use of any of the Common
Areas although such changes may result in inconvenience to Sublessee, so long as such changes do not materially and adversely affect Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises. In addition to the foregoing, Sublessor may, at any time, close or
suspend access to any Common Areas to perform any acts in the Common Areas as, in Sublessor’s reasonable judgment, are required in order to satisfy Sublessor’s obligations under either or both of this Sublease and the Prime Lease;
provided, however, that Sublessor shall use reasonable efforts to limit any disruption of Sublesse’s use and operation of the Subleased Premises in connection therewith. 
 6. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. 
 6.1. Prohibition.
Sublessee shall not (by operation of law or otherwise) sell, assign, mortgage, encumber, pledge, sublease or in any manner transfer or otherwise dispose of this Sublease or any interest therein, or all or any part of the Subleased Premises nor grant
licenses, occupancy rights therein, without Sublessor’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and absolute discretion. For all purposes of this Sublease, any transfer of fifty percent
(50%) or more of the capital or voting stock of Sublessee (or of the right to vote such stock), and any other change of control (e.g. transfer or assignment of partnership or membership interest in excess of 50%) of Sublessee, shall be deemed
to constitute a disposition of this Sublease. Consent by Sublessor to any such sale, assignment, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge, sublease, transfer, disposition, license, occupancy or lease (any “Disposition”) on any one occasion
shall not obviate the necessity for obtaining consent to any subsequent Disposition. 
 6.2. Continuing Liability of
Sublessee. If any Disposition occurs (with or without Sublessor’s consent as herein required), Sublessor may collect rent and other amounts from any assignee, sublessee, licensee or other occupant and apply the same to the Rent reserved
by this 

  
 5 

 
Sublease, but no such Disposition or collection of Rent shall be deemed a consent to such Disposition, or a waiver of any of Sublessee’s obligations under this Sublease, or an acceptance of
such assignee, sublessee, licensee or other occupant as “Sublessee,” or a release of Sublessee from the performance or payment by Sublessee of any of its covenants, agreements or liabilities contained in this Sublease. Notwithstanding any
Disposition (with or without consent), Sublessee shall remain fully liable for the performance of all terms, covenants and provisions of this Sublease. 
 7. ALTERATIONS, ADDITIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS. Except as required by Section 4 hereof, no alterations, additions or improvements shall be made to any part of the Subleased Premises
without the prior written consent of Sublessor, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and absolute discretion. All permitted alterations, additions or improvements to the Subleased Premises (“Sublessee’s
Work”) shall be made in compliance with any applicable terms and provisions of the Prime Lease, all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and at the expiration or termination of the term of this Sublease for any reason, shall
remain for the benefit of Sublessor or shall, at the request of Sublessor, be removed by Sublessee, at Sublessee’s sole cost, and Sublessee shall repair any damage caused by such removal. All permit, license and similar costs and fees
(including, without limitation, costs of architectural renderings, sign elevation drawings, mechanical plans, and other plans and specifications) required by statute or ordinance and associated with Sublessee’s Work shall be paid by Sublessee.

 8. WAIVER. Except for Sublessor’s gross negligence and intentionally wrongful conduct, Sublessor and its agents and
employees shall not be liable for, and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Sublessee waives all claims against Sublessor for, damage or injury to persons, property or otherwise, including, without limitation, lost profits and consequential
damages, sustained by Sublessee or any person claiming by, through or under Sublessee resulting from any accident or occurrence in or upon any portion of the Subleased Premises or the Property, including, without limitation, claims for damage
resulting from: (a) any equipment or appurtenances becoming out of repair; (b) the failure to keep any part of the Property in repair; (c) injury done or caused by wind, water, or other natural element; (d) any defect in or
failure of plumbing, heating or air conditioning equipment, electric wiring, gas or water pipes or equipment, steam pipes, stairs, porches, railings or walks or the installation or operation thereof; (e) broken glass; (f) the backing up of
any sewer pipe or downspout; (g) the bursting, leaking or running of any tank, tub, washstand, water closet, waste pipe, drain or any other pipe or tank; (h) the escape of steam or hot water; (i) water, snow or ice upon (or coming
through the roof of) the Subleased Premises or the Property; (j) the falling of any fixture, brick, roofing material, plaster or stucco; (k) damage to or loss by theft or otherwise of property of Sublessee or others; (l) acts or
omissions of persons in the Subleased Premises or the Property, occupants of nearby properties, or any other person; (m) acts or omissions of owners of adjacent or contiguous property or of Sublessor, its agents, employees, guests and invitees;
and (n) non-performance by Prime Lessor of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Prime Lease. All property of Sublessee kept in the Subleased Premises or in the Property shall be so kept at Sublessee’s sole risk and
Sublessee shall and hereby does indemnify and hold Sublessor and Prime Lessor harmless from any and all claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Sublessee’s insurance carrier. The foregoing indemnity shall
survive the termination or expiration of this Sublease. 
 9. CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION. If all or any part of the Subleased Premises
are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, or taken by condemnation or acquired by sale in lieu thereof, Sublessee shall be bound by any determination called for by the Prime Lease as to untenantability, materiality of any damage or
destruction, or similar matters, whether reached by agreement between 

  
 6 

 
Prime Lessor and Sublessor or otherwise as provided in the Prime Lease. Without limitation of the foregoing, and for purposes of clarity, this Sublease shall not be terminated on the basis of a
casualty or condemnation event or as a result of a sale in lieu thereof unless the Prime Lease is terminated on account thereof. Sublessee shall not be entitled to any portion of any condemnation award or sale proceeds, or to any proceeds of any
policy of insurance maintained by Prime Lessor or Sublessor, and shall not assert any separate claim therefor in any proceeding. 
 10.
ENTRY. Sublessor shall have the right to enter upon the Subleased Premises at all reasonable times (and, in the case of any emergency, at any time) to view the state and condition thereof, or to make or perform any maintenance, repairs or
alterations which Sublessor may see fit to make or which may be required by the Prime Lease and/or this Sublease, or to exercise any right or remedy of Sublessor hereunder, provided that Sublessor shall use reasonable efforts not to interfere with
Sublessee’s business operations. 
 11. SIGNS. All signage of Sublessee shall comply with the terms and provisions of the
Prime Lease and no exterior signage or other signage visible from outside the Subleased Premises shall be erected or installed without the prior written consent of Sublessor, which consent may be granted or withheld in Sublessor’s sole and
absolute discretion. 
 12. DEFAULT; REMEDIES. 
 12.1. Events of Default. It shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder if any or all of the following occur: (a) Sublessee fails to pay any Rent hereunder, and

within said twenty (20) day period, Sublessee fails to proceed within said twenty (20) day period to cure the same and thereafter to prosecute the curing of such default with due diligence (it being intended in connection with a default
not susceptible of being cured with due diligence within said twenty (20) day period that the time of Sublessee within which to cure the same shall be extended for up to an additional twenty (20) days if such additional 20-day period is
necessary to complete the same with all due diligence); (d) there is instituted against Sublessee any proceeding in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization pursuant to any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted, which proceeding is not
dismissed within thirty (30) days after the institution thereof, or any receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any portion of Sublessee’s business or property, or any execution or attachment is issued against Sublessee or any of
Sublessee’s business or property or against the leasehold estate created hereby; or (e) Sublessee makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits its inability to pay its debts as they become due, or is found to be unable so to
pay its debts by any court of competent jurisdiction, or files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or petitions for (or enters into) an arrangement for reorganization, composition or any other arrangement with Sublessee’s
creditors under any federal or state law now or hereafter enacted. 
 12.2. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default, Sublessor shall have the immediate right, at its option, to pursue any one or more of the following remedies: (a) terminate this Sublease; (b) reenter and take possession of the Subleased Premises, and evict Sublessee and
remove its property therefrom; (c) relet the Subleased Premises, and collect and retain all rents, charges, fees and other costs payable pursuant to such reletting; (d) any other remedy available to Prime Lessor under the Prime Lease in

 12.3. Damages. In the event Sublessor exercises its remedies under
Section 12.2(a), (b) or (c) hereof, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as part of Sublessor’s damages: (i) if Sublessor fails to relet the Subleased Premises, upon demand, an amount equal to the sum of all Rent
provided for herein to be paid by Sublessee for the Term of the Sublease remaining from and after the Event of Default and (ii) if Sublessor relets the Subleased Premises, from time to time upon demand, the amount by which all Rent due from the
date Sublessor terminates this Sublease exceed the rents, charges, fees and costs paid by a new tenant pursuant to the terms of such reletting, after deducting therefrom all reasonable costs of decoration, repairs, remodeling, alterations,
advertising, brokers’ commissions and other items in connection with such reletting. Without limiting the generality of Section 14 hereof, all expenses and costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ reasonable fees and
costs) incurred by Sublessor in exercising any remedy provided for in this Section 12 shall be covered by the indemnification set forth in Section 14 hereof, and Sublessee shall pay and/or reimburse Sublessor therefor,

time, by JP Morgan Chase NA, plus two percent (2.0%) per annum. 
 12.4. Right to Cure. If (a) an Event
of Default occurs, or (b) any breach hereof or default hereunder by Sublessee continues after the applicable notice and cure periods, or (c) any other event or state of affairs in or about the Subleased Premises or the Property constitutes
a breach of or default under the Prime Lease which continues after the applicable notice and cure periods, or, in Sublessor’s reasonable determination, poses a significant risk of injury or damage to any person or property, or, in
Sublessor’s reasonable determination, creates an unsightly condition, then Sublessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense, to cure the same, and Sublessee shall pay and/or reimburse Sublessor
for any expenses incurred by Sublessor in connection with such cure promptly upon demand therefor, together with interest on any amounts paid by Sublessor at the Default Rate from the date paid through the date reimbursed (inclusive of interest).

 13. INSURANCE. 
 13.1. Types of Coverage. Sublessee shall, at all times during the Term, carry commercial general liability, commercial property and any other types of insurance as required of Sublessor, as
tenant, under the Prime Lease. Sublessor, Prime Lessor and any mortgagee of the Property or of Sublessor’s leasehold estate under the Prime Lease shall each be named as an additional insured on all such policies, which policies shall be written
on an occurrence basis, be primary and not contributing with any coverage carried by Sublessor or Prime Lessor and which shall include contractual liability coverage. Each such policy of insurance shall provide that it will not be subject to
cancellation or modification except after at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Sublessor and the other additionally insured parties, and shall contain the insurer’s waiver of subrogation rights. Sublessee shall furnish
Sublessor with a certificate of each such policy of insurance (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both Prime Lessor and Sublessor) or, at Sublessor’s request, with the original of each such policy, together with evidence
satisfactory to Sublessor of payment of premiums therefor. Sublessor or its designee shall have the exclusive right to adjust any loss covered by any such policy of insurance to the extent it relates to the Subleased Premises.

under them mutually release and discharge each other from all claims and liabilities arising from or relating to any casualty, hazard or other occurrence to, at or in connection with the Subleased Premises or the Property to the extent covered by
insurance, and hereby waive any right of subrogation which might otherwise exist on account thereof; provided, however, that such waiver and release shall not operate in any case where the effect would be to invalidate such insurance coverage.

	 	16.2.	Covenants and Agreements. 

 16.2.1 Throughout the Term, Sublessee shall, at Sublessee’s expense, comply with all Relevant Laws. Further, Sublessee shall, at Sublessee’s expense, comply with all laws and requirements
of any governmental or administrative authorities that have jurisdiction over the Property and that impose any violation, order or duty on Sublessor or Sublessee arising from any or all of: (a) Sublessee’s particular use of the Subleased
Premises; (b) the manner or conduct of Sublessee’s business or operation of its installations, equipment or other property therein; (c) any cause or condition created by, or at the instance of, Sublessee; and (d) breach of any of
Sublessee’s obligations hereunder, regardless whether such compliance requires work that is structural or non-structural, ordinary or extraordinary, foreseen or unforeseen; and Sublessee shall pay all the costs, expenses, fines, penalties and
damages that are imposed upon either or both of Sublessor and the Prime Lessor, by reason of, or arising out of, Sublessee’s failure to fully and promptly comply with and observe the provisions of this Section. 

16.2.2 Sublessee shall promptly provide Sublessor copies of all communications, permits or agreements with any governmental

give Sublessee pursuant to the laws of the State where the Property is located shall be sent by overnight delivery service (such as Federal Express, United Parcel Service or the like) or by telecopy, addressed to Sublessee at the Property, or at
such other address as Sublessor may have given Sublessor in writing, with a copy of such notice being concurrently sent by overnight delivery service (such as Federal Express, United Parcel Service or the like) or by telecopy to Integrated

 18. SURRENDER. Upon the expiration of the Term or termination of this Sublease,
Sublessee shall peaceably surrender to Sublessor complete and exclusive possession of the Subleased Premises, broom clean, in good order and repair, in a condition the same as or better than on the date hereof, ordinary wear and tear and unavoidable

by Sublessor, or by the Prime Lease or Prime Lessor, as the case may be. Any such statement delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed a representation and warranty to be relied upon by the party requesting the certificate and by others with whom
Sublessor may be dealing, regardless of independent investigation. 
 20. MISCELLANEOUS. 

20.1. Partial Invalidity. The unenforceability, invalidity, or illegality of any provision of this Sublease shall not render
any other provision hereof unenforceable, invalid or illegal. Any such unenforceable, invalid or illegal provision shall be limited to the minimum extent necessary to render it enforceable, valid and legal and enforced to the maximum extent
permitted by law, or excised from this Sublease, as circumstances may require. 
 20.2. Choice of Law. This
Sublease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the state in which the Property is located, without regard to its conflict of laws or choice of law rules.

Acceptance of rent or other sums from Sublessee after expiration or termination of the Term shall not constitute consent to any holding over or agreement to any renewal or extension; provided, however, that, at Sublessor’s option, any holding
over by Sublessee shall constitute Sublessee’s agreement to a tenancy from month to month at two hundred percent (200%) of the Rent payable hereunder during the Term, and otherwise on the terms of this Sublease. In no event and under no
circumstances, however, may any holding over continue, at any cost whatsoever, beyond the expiration or termination of the term of the Prime Lease. 

  
 12 

 20.7. Waivers; Consents. No consent(s) to any proposed action of Sublessee,
and no waiver(s) of, or failure to assert, any right or remedy hereunder, by Sublessor (and/or Prime Lessor) on any one or more occasions shall constitute a course of dealing or a consent to such action or a waiver of such right or remedy on any
other occasion. No waiver shall be effective hereunder unless set forth in a writing signed by Sublessor. 
 20.8.
Relationship of Parties. Nothing contained herein is intended, nor shall it be construed, to evidence, confirm or create any relationship of principal and agent, partnership, joint venture, master and servant, or any other relationship
between the parties hereto other than the relationship of sublessor and sublessee. 
 20.9. Recording. Neither this
Sublease, nor any memorandum or “short form” hereof, nor any notice of Sublessee’s interest hereunder, shall be recorded by Sublessee, and any such recording shall be deemed an Event of Default entitling Sublessor to exercise all of
its rights and remedies under Section 12 hereof. 
 20.10. Counterparts. This Sublease may be executed
in any number of identical counterparts, any of which may contain he signatures of less than all parties, but all of which together shall constitute a single instrument. 
 20.11. Brokers. Each of Sublessor and Sublessee, warrant and represent to the other that they have dealt with no real estate broker in connection with this Sublease and that no broker is
entitled to any commission on account of this Sublease.
