(i) all real estate taxes, assessments, rates and charges that are levied, assessed or imposed against the Premises and any Additional Improvements (the “Taxable Property”), whether imposed against the
interest of Landlord or the interest of Tenant, (ii) all assessments, either imposed by any applicable governmental authority, including, but not limited to, any sanitary sewer assessments that are levied, assessed or imposed against the

corporation, sales, value-added, successor, transfer, gift or estate tax that may be at any time levied or assessed against Landlord, or that may become a lien upon the Taxable Property or the Rent. In the event, however, that the State of Georgia
or any taxing authority thereunder should, subsequent to the execution of this Lease, change or modify the present system of taxing real estate so as to tax the rental income from real estate in lieu of real estate taxes, Tenant shall be liable
under this Lease for the payment of the taxes imposed upon Landlord at any time during the Term to the same extent as though the alternative tax was a tax upon the value of the Land and the Improvements. 
 Section 5.02 Taxes and Assessments Contest. Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, dispute and contest the imposition of any
of the Taxes and Assessments which shall be reasonably deemed by Tenant to be improper, illegal, or excessive. Contested items need not be paid until adjudged to be valid; provided, however, that Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s reasonable
request, provide Landlord with such security as may be reasonably necessary to prevent a sale or forfeiture of the Taxable Property as a result or during the pendency of the contest, and further provided contested items must be paid in full by
Tenant sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Term. Tenant hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Landlord from and against fines, penalties or loss of property which may result from such contest, and hereby agrees to deliver to Landlord such
additional indemnity agreements as Landlord may reasonably request to evidence and confirm such indemnification. All such Taxes and Assessments, if contested and adjudged to be valid, shall be paid within the time permitted by applicable law but not
later than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Term. 
 Section 5.03 Association Assessments. As part of the
consideration for this Lease, Landlord covenants and agrees to pay the assessment on the Taxable Property to the Association established pursuant to that certain Amendment and Restatement of Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for

all charges for utilities and other outside services furnished to the Building, and Improvements, including, without limitation, electricity, water, gas, trash and garbage disposal, security system, television and telephone. Landlord shall have no
liability for the interruption or unavailability of any such utilities and services except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. 
 Section 5.05 Landlord’s Right to Pay or Perform for Tenant. If Tenant fails to pay any Taxes and Assessments, maintenance charges,
insurance premiums, utility charges or any other charges required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, shall have the right, without obligation, after thirty (30) calendar days’ written notice to
Tenant, to make any such payment or payments on behalf of Tenant. Landlord may give less than thirty (30) days’ notice if the deadline for payment would otherwise expire. If Tenant fails or refuses to make or to have made any repairs to
the Premises or Additional Improvements, or fails to perform any Tenant’s Maintenance Obligations, or to perform any other obligation under this Lease, then Landlord, at Landlord’s option and (except in cases of emergency) after thirty
(30)

condition and suitable for the use intended by Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees on or before October 1, 2008 to make certain parking lot repairs as specified in the proposal set forth on Exhibit C attached
hereto and by this reference made a part hereof from Dykes Paving (the “Parking Lot Work”), and to complete certain HVAC replacement work as specified in the proposal set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto and by this

unreasonably withheld), and only with such consent, and subject to the conditions set forth in this Lease and subject to any additional conditions and restrictions which Landlord may in its reasonable discretion impose, may, at Tenant’s sole

devices. Within fifteen (15) days after the receipt from Landlord of a demand to remove any eye-attracting device reasonably objected to by Landlord, Tenant will remove or cause to be removed such device. Tenant retains and will at all times
retain ownership of signs that Tenant installs. As a condition to any application, Landlord must execute any applications or consents that governmental authorities require with respect to any signs and advertising matter that Tenant desires to erect

hereby authorized and directed to collect the insurance proceeds and shall hold and disburse the insurance proceeds only as follows: 
 (a)
If during the time the insurance proceeds, or any part thereof, are in the possession of Trustee, Tenant is in monetary default hereunder with respect to the payment of Rent, then Tenant authorizes and hereby directs Trustee, upon demand by
Landlord, to pay over to Landlord so much of such insurance proceeds as may be necessary fully to pay or discharge and cure any such default by Tenant. Trustee shall promptly pay these amounts to Landlord. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be
construed to permit Tenant to default in the payment of any Rent due hereunder, and Landlord shall have the right, at its option, in the case of a Default in the payment of any Rent, to proceed against Tenant for the collection of such Rent, and to
reenter and take possession of the Premises and Additional Improvements in accordance with the provisions of this Lease and without prejudice to Landlord’s rights to the benefit of such insurance money as security for the payment of the Rent.

 (b) All insurance moneys received by Trustee which are not used or necessary to be used to cure any Default with respect to Rent as above
provided shall be available to Tenant for the purpose of rebuilding, restoring or repairing the Improvements and Additional Improvements. All repair, restoration or replacement shall be in accordance with the terms of this Lease. The proceeds shall
be paid by Trustee from time to time in accordance with certificates, approved by Trustee, from the architect, engineer or other party showing the work that has been completed and the amount due for such work to designated persons for labor,
materials, and other proper items of cost incurred in connection with the work of repair, reconstruction or replacement. In lieu of such certificates, Trustee may disburse pursuant to joint instructions to Trustee by Landlord, Tenant and any
Registered Mortgagee. The distribution of insurance proceeds shall be consistent with and pursuant to construction loan disbursement procedures commonly used by national banking associations in the metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area, provided,
however, there will be a hold-back of ten percent (10%) of billed costs until the satisfaction of all conditions for completion of the repairs of the casualty. Any accumulation of interest upon the fund so held by Trustee shall be added to and
become a part of the said fund and shall be held and disbursed by Trustee as herein provided. All such interest shall be deemed for tax purposes the income of Tenant. In the event of the expiration or termination of this Lease before the expenditure
of the full amount of such insurance fund, any unexpended balance remaining shall be paid to and become the property of Landlord. If the work to be performed in accordance with this Section 11 .02 is at the point of Repair Completion, then any
excess funds from the insurance proceeds after payment of all amounts necessary to cure any Default shall be paid to Landlord, subject to the rights of any Registered Mortgagee. The term “Repair Completion” shall mean, with respect
to any restoration or repair, that (i) Tenant has obtained an unconditional certificate of occupancy for the Improvements, including, without limitation, Additional Improvements, as applicable, required to be restored or repaired by Tenant and
provided a copy thereof to Landlord, (ii) Tenant has obtained a certification, addressed to both Landlord and Tenant, from the architect who prepared the approved plans or such other architect, engineer or other party approved in writing by
Landlord that such restoration or repair has been substantially completed in accordance with the approved plans, (iii) Tenant has completed the repair and restoration of all tenant improvements which Tenant is obligated to complete pursuant to
any tenant agreement and (iv) all costs for such restoration or repair have been paid in full and appropriate evidence thereof is delivered to

any Registered Mortgagee to approve the approved plans in a timely manner.

In the event all or a substantial portion of the Improvements are damaged by fire or other casualty during the last twelve (12) calendar months of the Term, Tenant shall have no obligation to repair or rebuild the Improvements and Additional
Improvements. In the event Tenant elects not to repair or rebuild the Improvements and Additional Improvements as set forth in this Section 11.03, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such election within thirty (30) days of the
date of such casualty and prior to any settlement with any insurance carrier of Tenant for such casualty. In the written notice to Landlord the date of the end of the Terms shall be set forth. Tenant shall be obligated at its expense to protect the
Premises following the casualty including building a fence to protect the Premises. All terms of this Lease except for maintenance, other than to protect the Premises and Additional Improvements, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent

 CONDEMNATION 
 Section 12.01
Separate Awards. If, during the Term, the Premises or any part thereof shall be condemned or taken by any applicable governmental authority or by any corporation, public or private, or by any other body having power of eminent domain
(collectively, “Condemnation”), the court in such Condemnation proceeding shall, if not prohibited by law, be requested to make separate awards to Landlord and Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant agree to request such action by the
court. This Section 12.01 shall be construed as superseding any statutory provisions now in force or hereafter enacted concerning Condemnation proceedings to the extent permitted by law. If the court shall make separate awards to Landlord and
Tenant, then except as provided in Section 12.07, neither of such parties shall have any rights or claims with respect to the award made by the court to the other party (provided that nothing herein is intended to limit the rights of the
parties under this Article XII). If such court is prohibited by law from making separate awards to Landlord and Tenant or declines to do so, the award in such Condemnation proceeding shall be paid to the parties as provided in Section 12.05
hereinbelow. 
 Section 12.02 Total Taking. If all of the Premises or all of the Land and the Improvements located thereon are
taken by Condemnation, then the taking shall be deemed to be a total taking (a “Total Taking”), and this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the final decree of the Total Taking, except for the payment of all Rent which has
accrued under this Lease and all indemnities of Tenant upon the entry of the final decree of the Total Taking and Tenant waives all right to any condemnation proceeds for the taking of the Premises, except as provided in Section 12.05. The Rent
shall be apportioned as of the date of the final decree of the Total Taking. 
  

 18 

 Section 12.03 Partial Taking of Substantial Portion of Premises. If less than a Total Taking
of the Premises shall occur (a “Partial Taking”), Tenant may, at its option within sixty (60) days after the awards for such Condemnation are determined, provide Landlord with a certificate from a general partner, or an officer
of a corporate general partner, of Tenant, stating that: 
 (a) Tenant has determined that the remainder of the Premises and Additional
Improvements after such Partial Taking: 
 (i) will be substantially below the standard and level of quality and income production existing
immediately prior to the Partial Taking; and 
 (ii) will be substantially unusable by Tenant; and 
 (b) Tenant desires that the Term end. 
 Tenant shall also provide to Landlord appraisals, plans and specifications, and other evidence acceptable to Landlord substantiating (a)(i) and (ii) above. 
 Within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s certificate, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing as to whether Landlord agrees that the portion of the Premises and Additional
Improvements taken will have the consequences described in (a)(i) and (ii) above. If Landlord agrees with Tenant’s determination, or as a result of arbitration as provided and permitted in this Lease Tenant’s determination is
determined to be correct, then such Condemnation shall be deemed a Total Taking, and this Lease shall terminate (except for all accrued and unpaid Rent, the indemnities of Tenant under this Lease and obligations under this Lease that have accrued to
date or survive a termination) and the Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s certificate. In the event that the Condemnation is not determined to result in a Total Taking for purposes hereof, then the
Condemnation shall be governed by the provisions of Section 12.04 below. 
 Section 12.04 Partial Taking. 
 (a) If during the Term a Partial Taking of the Premises and Additional Improvements occurs which does not result in termination of this Lease pursuant to
Section 12.03 above, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect according to its terms. Landlord and Tenant shall seek separate awards as provided in Section 12.01 above. In the event separate awards cannot be obtained, any award
made for the interest of Landlord and Tenant shall be apportioned as provided in Section 12.05 below. 
 (b) If, as a result of a
Partial Taking, any part of the Premises only is rendered permanently unsuitable for Tenant’s use and occupancy, the Base Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in value of the Land and the Improvements resulting from the
Condemnation. In the event that Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the amount of such rental reduction or abatement, the matter shall be resolved pursuant to the arbitration provisions hereof, and pending the determination of the amount of
the reduction or abatement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term until such determination is made, in lieu of the Base Rent, that amount which is the average of the amounts claimed by Landlord and
Tenant as the proper Base Rent by reason of the Condemnation. The Base Rent shall be adjusted retroactive to the date of the final decree of the Condemnation at the time the amount of the Base Rent reduction or abatement is determined by arbitration
or otherwise agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant. There shall be no abatement or reduction of Additional Rent. 
  

 19 

 (c) In the event this Lease is not terminated as provided in Section 12.02 or Section 12.03
above, Tenant shall, at its expense, up to but not in excess of the amount of the award or damages payable for Tenant’s interests, or any part thereof, plus the amount of the Condemnation award paid to Landlord and made available to Tenant,
promptly after such Condemnation and payment of the award, make repairs to the Premises. The restoration and repair shall improve the Premises and Additional Improvements to the standard so that it is adequate to permit Tenant to carry on business
within the Premises to substantially the same extent and with substantially the same efficiency as before the Condemnation. 
 Section 12.05
Division of Award. 
 (a) If, in the event Tenant terminates this Lease as provided in Section 12.02 or Section 12.03 and
the court in such Condemnation proceeding declines to make or is prohibited from making the separate awards requested as provided in Section 12.01, then the award made for the interest of both Landlord and Tenant shall be divided between
Landlord and Tenant on a pro rata basis as follows: 
 (i) Landlord shall be entitled to the value of the Premises. 
 (ii) Tenant shall be entitled to a relocation allowance to the extent that this amount is specifically included in the condemnation award. 
 (iii) Any Registered Mortgagee shall be paid only from the amounts allocated to Landlord but subject to the terms of this Lease. 
 (b) If, in the event of a Partial Taking, and Tenant does not terminate this Lease as provided in Section 12.03 or Section 12.07, and the court

Tenant on a pro rata basis with Landlord receiving the total award except for the amount included in the award specifically for the items set forth in Section 12.05(a)(ii). 
 (c) If such Condemnation involves a Partial Taking during the last twelve (12) months of the Term and Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as

substantially equivalent to the standard and level of quality and income production existing immediately prior to the Condemnation, then Tenant may, at its option, exercisable not less than sixty (60) days after the awards for such Partial
Taking are determined, elect to terminate this Lease (except for accrued and unpaid Rent, the indemnities of Tenant under this Lease that have accrued and the obligations under this Lease that do not terminate on termination), this Lease shall

possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages. No such entry or repossession shall be construed as

 (d) Landlord may hold Tenant liable for all Rent accrued to the date of the occurrence of
such Event of Default and all other damages that Landlord may suffer as a result of such Event of Default, and if Landlord does not terminate this Lease, all Rent thereafter required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord during the Term. Actions to

 (e) Without terminating this Lease, Landlord may do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease, in which event Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, which Landlord may incur in this effecting satisfaction and performance of our compliance w Tenant’s duties and obligations under
this Lease.

Event of Default, Landlord shall not have any obligation to re-lease or attempt to re-lease the Premises, or any portion thereof, or to collect rental after re-leasing (if any); but Landlord shall have the option to re-lease or attempt to re-lease
and in the event of re-leasing Landlord may re-lease the whole or any portion of the Premises for any period, to any tenant, and for any use and purpose. Landlord shall in no way be responsible or liable for any rental concessions or any failure to
re-lease the Premises or any part hereof, or for any failure to collect any rental due upon such re-leasing. Upon each such re-leasing, all rentals received by Landlord from such re-leasing shall be supplied; first to the payment of any indebtedness
(other than any Rent) from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such re-leasing, including, without limitation, brokerage fees and attorneys’ fees and costs of alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of
Rent then due and unpaid under this Lease; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord without interest to the extent of and for application in payment of future Rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. In re-leasing the
Premises as aforesaid, Landlord may grant rental concessions and Tenant shall not be credited therefore. If such rentals received from such re-leasing shall at any time or from time to time be less than sufficient to pay to Landlord the entire Rent
then due from Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord upon demand. Such deficiency shall, at Landlord’s option, be calculated and paid monthly. No such re-leasing shall be construed as an election by Landlord to
terminate this Lease unless Landlord has given a written notice of such election to Tenant, Notwithstanding any such re-leasing without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for any such previous Default.

  

 25 

 (g) If this Lease shall terminate as a result of or while there exists a Default hereunder, any funds of
Tenant held by Landlord may be applied by Landlord to any damages payable by Tenant (whether provided for herein or by law) as a result of such termination or Default. 
 (h) Neither the commencement of any arbitration, action or proceeding, nor the settlement thereof, nor entry of judgment thereon, shall bar Landlord from bringing subsequent arbitrations, actions or proceedings from
time to time, nor shall the failure to include in any arbitration, action or proceeding any sum or sums then due be a bar to the maintenance of any subsequent arbitrations, actions or proceedings for the recovery of such sum or sums so omitted.

 (i) Exercise by or on behalf of Landlord of any one or more remedies provided in this Lease or otherwise available at law or in equity:
(a) shall not be the basis for any claim of constructive eviction, or allow Tenant to withhold any payments under this Lease; (b) shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of the Premises by Tenant whether by agreement or by
operation of law (it being understood that such surrender can be effected only by the written agreement of Landlord and Tenant); (c) shall not preclude exercise of any other remedy or remedies provided in this Lease or any other remedy or
remedies provided for or allowed by law or in equity, separately or concurrently or in any combination; and (d) shall not constitute an election of remedies excluding the election of another remedy or other remedies, or a forfeiture or waiver
of any Rent or of any damages or other sums accruing to Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure fully and completely to keep, observe, perform, satisfy and comply with all of the agreements, terms, covenants, conditions, requirements, provisions
and restrictions of this Lease. Landlord’s forbearance in pursuing or exercising one or more of its remedies shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any Default or of any remedy. No waiver by Landlord of any right or remedy
on one occasion shall be construed as a waiver of that right or remedy on any subsequent occasion or as a waiver of any other right or remedy then or thereafter existing. No failure of Landlord to pursue or exercise any of Landlord’s powers,
rights or remedies or to insist upon strict compliance by Tenant with any agreement, term, covenant, condition, requirement, provision or restriction of this Lease, and no custom or practice at variance with the terms of this Lease shall constitute
a waiver by Landlord of the right to demand strict and exact compliance with the terms and conditions of this Lease. No termination of this Lease shall affect Landlord’s right to collect Rent for the period prior to termination. 
 (j) Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may not have an adequate remedy at law in respect of any Default other than the payment of Rent, and that Landlord
shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief if Tenant shall violate or breach, or shall fail fully and completely to observe, keep, satisfy, perform and comply with any agreement, term, covenant, condition, requirement, restriction or
provision of this Lease (other than the payment of Rent), or shall threaten to do so.

The institution and maintenance of any action for such judicial relief, or the pursuit of provisional or ancillary remedies, shall not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of any party to submit any claim or dispute to arbitration,
including those claims or disputes arising from the exercise of any such judicial relief or pursuit of provisional or ancillary remedies, nor is the right to seek such relief from a court intended to limit the power of the arbitrators to grant any

merits of the claims will be commenced within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration. 
 The party initiating an arbitration
proceeding shall notify the other party in writing and shall describe in writing and in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute sought to be arbitrated, the amount, if any, of any claim, and the specific relief requested. The party responding to
the claim shall reply in writing, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the demand for arbitration, answering the claims set forth in the demand for arbitration including any affirmative defenses, and asserting any counterclaims, which such
claims shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute relating to the counterclaim, state the amount, if any, of the counterclaim, and the specific relief requested. 
 The arbitrators are authorized to permit reasonable discovery by the parties including depositions, exchange of documents and interrogatories, The
arbitrators shall schedule promptly all discovery and other procedural steps and otherwise shall assume case management initiative and control to effect an efficient and expeditious resolution of the disputes at issue. The arbitrators are
specifically authorized to render partial or full summary judgment by way of motions filed by any party. 
 Except as provided in this
Section 18.15 with respect to attorneys’ fees in connection with a motion to compel arbitration, each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees irrespective of the outcome of any arbitration and no party shall be entitled
to punitive damages irrespective of the claims sought to be arbitrated. 
 Any monetary award entered against Tenant pursuant to any such
arbitration proceeding shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease and shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days after the date such award is entered. 
 The arbitrators shall be required to follow the substantive law of Georgia in rendering their award in the same manner as would a judge if this matter were pending in a Georgia court, however neither the Georgia nor
the federal rules of evidence shall apply. 
 The party requesting arbitration shall give a Registered Mortgagee prompt notice of any
arbitration or legal proceedings. Any Registered Mortgagee shall have the right to intervene in the proceedings and be made a party to the proceedings, and Landlord and Tenant do hereby consent to such intervention. Such intervention shall occur no
later than fifteen (15) days after notice to the Registered Mortgagee of the arbitration or legal proceeding. In the event that any Registered Mortgagee shall not elect to intervene or become a party to any of the proceedings, Landlord shall
give such Registered Mortgagee notice of, and a copy of any award or decision made in any of the proceedings, which shall be binding on each Registered Mortgagee not intervening after receipt of notice of such arbitration. 
 Section 18.16 Approvals. Whenever Landlord’s consent or approval is required or permitted under the terms and provisions of this Lease,
any request therefor shall be directed to 

  

 32 

 
John A. Smart and Pam Smart, at the address for notice provided in Section 18.01. Landlord may designate another authorized agent to acknowledge and
execute any such consent or approval on behalf of Landlord by written notice to Tenant. Landlord hereby agrees to use Landlord’s best efforts to complete review and approval or disapproval of any documents submitted by Tenant as expeditiously
as is reasonable. In the event Landlord denies its consent or approval where such consent or approval is required in this Lease, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to specify the reason or reasons for such denial and, if applicable, shall advise
Tenant and any Registered Mortgagee as to any change or modification to the particular matter which could give rise to or assist Tenant in obtaining Landlord’s consent or approval. 
 Section 18.17 Reasonableness Standard. Wherever in this Lease consent or approval with respect to any matter is required to be obtained from
either Landlord or Tenant and such provision provides that such consent or approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned or is similarly limited, it is the intention of the parties that in giving or withholding such consent or
approval the party from whom consent or approval is required shall be governed and bound by standards of “commercial reasonableness.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if and to the extent that under the laws of the State of
Georgia, now or hereafter existing, provision for consent or approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned is unenforceable for any reason, it is the intention of the parties that in such event (and only in such event), the
limitation of reasonableness impressed in connection with the giving of such consent or approval shall be stricken such that the consent or approval shall remain effective nevertheless without such limitation; provided, however, that even under such
circumstance, such consent or approval by the party having such right shall not be arbitrarily or capriciously exercised. 
 Section 18.18 No Joint Venture. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant is an independent entity entirely separate from Landlord and that Landlord has no interest in Tenant. The operation of the Land and the Improvements as
a medical office facility or any other use permitted in accordance herewith is the exclusive business operation of Tenant and Tenant has the ownership right to the profits therefrom. The conditions and restrictions imposed hereby on Tenant and the
reliance of Landlord on the abilities of Tenant are important to Landlord because of the ownership of adjoining land by Landlord and Landlord’s intentions to develop the adjoining land independently from Tenant. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant
are not in a common business enterprise, joint venture or partnership. 
 Section 18.19 Captions and Headings. The captions and
headings used herein are inserted only as a matter of convenience in reference and in no way define, limit, affect or impair the scope of this Lease or the intent of any provision used herein. 
 Section 18.20 Supplemental Agreement. The Supplemental Agreement is hereby terminated as of the Effective Date. 
 Section 18.21 Financial Statements. Tenant shall from time to time, within ten (10) days after request by Landlord, but not more than
once per calendar year, deliver to Landlord financial statements (including balance sheets and income/expense statements) for Tenant’s then most recent full and partial fiscal years immediately preceding such request, certified by an
independent certified public accountant or Tenant’s chief financial officer and in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord.

 ARTICLE XIX 
 LIMITED LIABILITY 
 Section 19.01 Landlord’s Liability. 
 (a) All claims, demands or causes of action, whether reduced to judgment or not, which Tenant may at any time have against Landlord because of the
failure of Landlord to comply with any provision of this Lease, shall be enforceable solely against the right, title and interest of Landlord in and to the Land and Building, as well as any condemnation awards with regard to such interests and
casualty insurance proceeds, and no other property of Landlord or of any officer, director, shareholder or employee of Landlord shall be subject to any such claim, demand, cause of action or judgment. Tenant hereby waives all other rights against
Landlord. Tenant waives all right to seek any award or judgment against Landlord, its officers, directors, members and employees for special, incidental, indirect or consequential or punitive damages. 
 (b) Upon the sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Landlord shall be released from any liability under this Lease arising after
the date of such transfer provided that (i) the transferee has assumed in writing all of the terms, conditions and obligations of Landlord under this Lease arising from and after the date of such transfer and (ii) the transfer has been
recorded in the Forsyth County Superior Court records and a certified copy thereof has been delivered to Tenant. No such sale or transfer shall release the seller or transferor from liability under this Lease with respect to the breach of any
obligations and duties arising before any such sale or transfer. 
 ARTICLE XX 
 AGENT’S COMMISSION 
 Section 20.01 Representations. Each party
hereby represents to the other that they have dealt with no real estate brokers or agents in connection with this Lease and the transactions contemplated hereby, except The Stephen W. Wright Co., which solely represents Landlord
(“Landlord’s Broker”) and Scotland Wright & Associates, which solely represents Tenant (“Tenant’s Broker”) (Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker are collectively hereinafter referred to
as “Brokers”). Landlord will pay a commission to Brokers pursuant to separate agreement. Tenant represents unto Landlord that there shall be no commission due or payable to any real estate broker or agent, other than Brokers, with
respect to any extension of this Lease or any addition to the Premises. 
 Section 20.02 Indemnity. Landlord and Tenant hereby
indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any real estate commissions or similar fees claimed by any broker or agent as result of dealings with the indemnifying party in connection with this Lease. 
  

 34 

 ARTICLE XXI 
 AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

existing on the Effective Date.

 David: This is a proposal to replace the aging RTU’s & Unit Heaters at Smart Corp. The units listed
are just over 10 years old. The average life of a Trane “Voyager” RTU is 7 to 10 years. These remaining units have outlived their useful service life. We have recommended replacements and quoted them at this facility before. However, they
have only 4 new Units to date, with 19 due for replacement. The Unit Heaters are also in the same condition. The Computer Room Unit HVAC System does operate, but the tonnage is light, & the unit is also on borrowed time. We have quoted a
replacement here as well, but the customer is not sure what they will be doing with the Computer room in the future, so scope & future was uncertain. Also, there are 2 areas in the building where we have recommended to add more cooling
because the HVAC load calculations showed they were now short. They declined to do the work & asked us to move ductwork around instead. Overall the HVAC has been well maintained. The equipment however has exceeded its normal service life. If you
are purchasing this building. I recommend using the attached proposal as a guideline to what needs to be done. All of the systems listed will need to be replaced within 24 to 48 months. We recommend doing them now (as we quoted to Smart 2 years
ago). Performing all of the work at once will save thousands vs. doing them one at a time. To approve, sign & fax back to me. Please call if you have any questions. Thanks. Gary

 RIDER ONE 
 OPTION TO EXTEND 
 Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred under the
Lease, and provided further that the Lease shall not have theretofore been assigned, nor all or any portion of the Premises sublet, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s option, to extend the Term for two (2) additional periods of five
(5) years each (each such additional period being herein referred to as an “Extension Term”). Such option to extend (the “Option to Extend”) shall be exercised by Tenant giving written notice of the exercise
thereof (the “Extension Notice”) to Landlord at least nine (9) months before the Expiration Date of the then applicable term. Each Extension Term, if exercised, shall be upon the same terms, covenants, and conditions as set
forth in the Lease with respect to the initial Term, except that (a) Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to alter, improve or remodel the Premises and (b) the Base Rent payable for the first Lease Year of each Extension Term, if
exercised, shall equal the then-prevailing Fair Market Rental Rate for the Premises, as defined below (but in no event less than the Base Rent in effect during the immediately preceding twelve (12) months), increased on the first (1st) day of each succeeding Lease Year of the applicable Extension Term by three percent
(3%) over the Base Rent in effect during the preceding twelve (12) months. For purposes of this Rider One, the term “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the fair rental, as of the date for which such Fair Market Rental
Rate is being calculated, per annum per rentable square foot for comparable space for a comparable term, by reference to comparable space with a comparable use in the Premises, and in other buildings comparable to the Building in quality and
location (but excluding those leases where the tenant has an equity interest in the property), where the landlord has had a reasonable time to locate a tenant who rents with the knowledge of the uses to which the Premises can be adapted, and neither
landlord nor the prospective tenant is under any compulsion to rent. The Fair Market Rental Rate shall take into account and reflect the rental rates for new tenancies of similar quality properties and size and the savings to Tenant resulting from
Tenant not having to relocate its operations. Within sixty (60) days after Landlord’s receipt of an Extension Notice, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate which shall apply during the
applicable Extension Term. If Tenant objects to Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate, Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such objection within fifteen (15) days following the date upon which Landlord gives Tenant
notice of such Fair Market Rental Rate, and Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree on the Fair Market Rental Rate. In the event Tenant fails to object to Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate as provided above, such
determination shall be deemed conclusive and binding upon the parties for the purposes of the option to extend set forth herein. In the event Tenant does object to Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate as provided above, and
the parties fail, after good faith efforts, to agree upon the Fair Market Rental Rate within thirty (30) days following the date upon which Landlord gives Tenant notice of such Fair Market Rental Rate, then Landlord and Tenant shall each, at
its cost, engage a real estate appraiser to act on its behalf in determining the Fair Market Rental Rate. The appraisers each shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience with leases in comparable buildings in the North Fulton/Georgia
400 submarket area. The two (2) appraisers selected by Landlord and Tenant shall promptly select a third appraiser within ten (10) days after they both have been appointed. Each appraiser, within fifteen (15) days after the third
appraiser is selected shall submit his or her determination of the 

 Fair Market Rental Rate to each other. The Fair Market Rental Rate shall be the mean of the two
closest rental rate determinations. Each of the parties hereto shall bear one-half ( 1/2) the cost of the third appraiser.Strategic Alliance Agreement

the Transaction Documents to which it is a party will (i) violate any provision of its articles of incorporation or by-laws (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or an event of default under, any indenture,

	 	4.05	Licenses and Permits. As of the Effective Date, PHLVIC has, and during the term of this Agreement shall use reasonable efforts to maintain all material licenses, permits,

statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made (it being understood that no representation is made with respect to
information about ICAS or ICC provided by ICAS or ICC in writing to PHL Variable). All statements in the Registration Statement, on the date of which it was declared 

  

 - 7 - 

	 	 
effective, relating to taxation and tax effects are true in all material respects. The Prospectus or other information contained in the Registration
Statement, when disseminated or used after the effective date of the Registration Statement, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light

PHLVIC believes or has reason to believe that the representations and warranties in this paragraph are no longer true or completely accurate. 

  

	 	4.10	Tax Matters. It is more likely than not that: (1) PHLVIC will not be treated as the owner of the assets in an ICC Account for federal income tax purposes; (2) the
GIE, including each Certificate, will be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes; however, if the value of an ICC Account happens to be greater than zero when an Owner’s life expectancy is less than one year (which will
only occur at extremely advanced ages), it is possible that the Policy could be treated as no longer constituting an annuity contract for Federal tax purposes from that point on; (3) for all Certificate Holders on the date of GIE issuance and
during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is in effect, losses with respect to the ICC Account will be deductible under Section 165(a) of the IRC notwithstanding the existence of the GIE’ conditional guarantee of
annual lifetime income payments in the event that the value of the assets in an ICC Account decreases to zero; (4) for all Certificate Owners on the date of GIE issuance and during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is
in effect, dividends on stock held in an ICC Account otherwise meeting the requirements of Section 1(h)(11) of the IRC will constitute qualified dividend income notwithstanding the existence of a GIE and its conditional guarantee of annual
lifetime income payments in the event the value of the assets in the ICC Account decreases to zero; and (5) for each Certificate Owner on the date of Certificate issuance and during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is
in effect, the Certificate and assets in the ICC Account subject thereto will not be treated as a straddle under Section 1092 of the IRC. 

  

	 	4.11	 Ownership of GIE; No Claims Relating to GIE. Except as set forth in Section 10.01, PHLVIC and its Affiliates, as applicable, are the exclusive legal and
beneficial owner of and have good and marketable title in and to the GIE and all intellectual property rights therein, free and clear of all pledges, claims, liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests of any kind or character, including any
claims for infringement of intellectual property rights. For the purposes of this Section, intellectual property includes GIE forms, specimen forms, the features of the GIE, materials filed by any of the PHL Parties with State insurance regulators,
and any other forms prepared by any of the PHL Parties or any of their Affiliates in connection with the GIE. There are no claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings (arbitration or otherwise) pending against, or to the knowledge of
PHLVIC, threatened against or affecting, all or any part of the GIE 

  

 - 8 - 

	 	 
or to the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents. To the knowledge of PHLVIC, there are no facts that could reasonably serve as a
basis for such claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding. The use and issuance of the GIE does not and will not infringe, misappropriate, violate or dilute any intellectual property rights of any person. 

 SECTION 5 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PLIC 
 PLIC hereby represents and warrants to the ICC as follows:

against it in accordance with its terms. 

  

	 	5.04	Non-Contravention. PLIC has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and neither such execution and delivery nor the performance by PLIC of any of its obligations under the
Transaction Documents to which it is a party will (i) violate any provision of its articles of incorporation or by-laws (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or an event of default under, any indenture, mortgage,
bond or other contract, license, agreement, permit, instrument or other commitment or obligation to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (iii) materially violate any Law applicable to it or its business. 

  

	 	5.05	Licenses and Permits. As of the Effective Date, PLIC has, and during the term of this Agreement shall use reasonable efforts to maintain all material licenses, permits,

	 	5.06	Compliance with Law. As of the Effective Date, PLIC shall use reasonable efforts to conduct and will continue to conduct business operations in connection with performance of

omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made (it being understood that no representation is made with respect to information about ICAS or ICC provided
by ICAS in writing to PHL Variable). All statements in the Registration Statement, on the date of which it was declared effective, relating to taxation and tax effects are true in all material respects. The Prospectus or other information contained
in the Registration Statement, when disseminated or used after the effective date of the Registration Statement, shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made (it being understood that no representation is made with respect to information about ICAS or ICC provided by ICAS or ICC in writing to PHL Variable). PLIC shall immediately notify
ICC in the event PLIC believes or has reason to believe that the representations and warranties in this paragraph are no longer true or completely accurate. 

  

	 	5.10	Tax Matters. It is more likely than not that: (1) PLIC will not be treated as the owner of the assets in an ICC Account for federal income tax purposes; (2) the
GIE, including each Certificate, will be treated as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes; (3) for all Certificate Holders on the date of GIE issuance and during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is in
effect, losses with respect to the ICC Account will be deductible under Section 165(a) of the IRC notwithstanding the existence of the GIE’ conditional guarantee of annual lifetime income payments in the event that the value of the assets
in an ICC Account decreases to zero; (4) for all Certificate Owners on the date of GIE issuance and during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is in effect, dividends on stock held in an ICC Account otherwise meeting the
requirements of Section 1(h)(11) of the IRC will constitute qualified dividend income notwithstanding the existence of a GIE and its conditional guarantee of annual lifetime income payments in the event the value of the assets in the ICC
Account decreases to zero; and (5) for each Certificate Owners on the date of Certificate issuance and during the entire period during which the GIE and each Certificate is in effect, the Certificate and assets in the ICC Account subject
thereto will not be treated as a straddle under Section 1092 of the IRC.

beneficial owner of and have good and marketable title in and to the GIE and all intellectual property rights therein, free and clear of all pledges, claims, liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests of any kind or character, including any
claims for infringement of intellectual property rights. For the purposes of this 

  

 - 10 - 

	 	 
Section, intellectual property includes GIE forms, specimen forms, the features of the GIE, materials filed by any of the PHL Parties with State insurance
regulators, and any other forms prepared by any of the PHL Parties or any of their Affiliates in connection with the GIE. There are no claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings (arbitration or otherwise) pending against, or to the
knowledge of PLIC, threatened against or affecting, all or any part of the GIE or to the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents. To the knowledge of PLIC, there are no facts that could reasonably serve as a basis for such
claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding. The use and issuance of the GIE does not and will not infringe, misappropriate, violate or dilute any intellectual property rights of any person.

	 	12.02.1.5	any claim for infringement of intellectual property rights by an unaffiliated third party in connection with any product that is similar to or resembles all or any part of
ICC, but excluding any claim relating in any way to the development of all or any part of the GIE or Registration Statement and any claim described in Sections 12.01.1(e) and (f) of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	12.02.1.6	a termination of a Certificate by either PHLVIC or PLIC as a result of a breach of the Memorandum of Understanding by ICAS that is not cured on or before the 5th consecutive
Business Day following the date on which either PHLVIC or PLIC delivers notice under the Memorandum of Understanding that PHLVIC or PLIC, as applicable, has determined it cannot hedge changes proposed by ICAS either (i) without incurring
material additional risk or additional hedging costs that are material in light of the pricing of the GIE, or (ii) because Phoenix is unable to obtain an appropriate hedge (a determination as to either (i) or (ii), a
“Determination”); except a breach shall not be deemed to have occurred if the ICC demonstrates, through binding arbitration pursuant to Section 14.02 of this Agreement, that a Determination was unreasonable, erroneous or not made in
good faith. 

  

 - 24 - 

	 	12.02.2	Limitation. Indemnification pursuant to this Section 12.02 shall be in addition to any liability that the ICC may otherwise have. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Section, no PHL Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section to the extent that (a) Losses are attributable to acts, omissions or conduct of any PHL Indemnitee that constitute willful
misconduct, gross negligence, bad faith, or recklessness (other than any of ICC, any of their Affiliates, or any their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors or permitted assigns acting as an agent or
representative of any of the PHL Indemnitees), unless such acts, omissions or conduct were committed at the written direction of ICC Authorized Persons, or (b) such Loss is also a Loss for which the Investor Capital Indemnitees are indemnified
pursuant to Section 12.01 of this Agreement. Each PHL Party acknowledges that neither ICAS nor any of its Affiliates shall be deemed to have guaranteed the profitability of the GIE or any volume of sales, and no indemnification shall arise in
connection with profitability of the GIE or volume of sales. 

  

	 	12.03	Inter-Party Claims. Any Party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 12 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the other Party or Parties from
whom such indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the Indemnified Party’s assertion of such claim for indemnification, specifying the basis of such claim. The Indemnified Party shall thereupon give the Indemnifying
Party reasonable access to the documents that evidence or support such claim or the act, omission or occurrence giving rise to such claim. 

  

	 	12.04	Third Party Claims. 

  

	 	12.04.1	Each Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the assertion by any third party of any claim with respect to which the indemnification set forth in
this Article 12 relates (which shall also constitute the notice required by Section 16.03). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon notice to the Indemnified Party within ten business days after the receipt of any such notice, to
undertake the defense of or, with the consent of the Indemnified Party, (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), to settle or compromise such claim. The failure of the Indemnifying Party to give such notice and to undertake the defense of
or to settle or compromise such a claim shall constitute a waiver of the Indemnifying Party’s rights under this Section 12.04.1 and shall preclude the Indemnifying Party from disputing the manner in which the Indemnified Party may conduct
the defense of such claim or the reasonableness of any amount paid by the Indemnified Party in satisfaction of such claim. 

  

 - 25 - 

	 	12.04.2	The election by the Indemnifying Party, pursuant to Section 13.03.1, to undertake the defense of a third-party claim shall not preclude the Party against which such
claim has been made also from participating or continuing to participate in such defense, so long as such Party bears its own legal fees and expenses for so doing. 

 SECTION 13 STATUS OF PARTIES 
  

	 	13.01	Independent Contractors. Each of the PHL Parties and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and ICC and its Affiliates, on the other, shall be deemed to be an independent
contractor as to the others for all purposes. None of the Transaction Documents shall be construed (1) to create the relationship of employer and employee among the Parties hereto or between any Party and any of the officers, directors,
employees, or representatives of any other Party, (2) to create a partnership or joint venture among the Parties hereto, or (3) to authorize any Party to act as a general or special agent of any other, except as may be specifically set
forth herein. Except as otherwise expressly set for in this Agreement, no Party shall in any manner be prevented or bound to refrain from engaging in any business or businesses of any kind or nature, or owning or dealing in securities of any entity
or making any investments of any kind, or performing services for any other person, firm, or entity. 

  

	 	13.02	Authority to Act. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or the Sales and General Agency Agreement, none of the PHL Parties or their Affiliates, on the one
hand, and ICC or its Affiliates, on the other, shall have or be deemed to have authority to act on behalf of the others. 

  

	 	13.03	No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the Selling Agreement, and the Memorandum of Understanding are solely among the Parties hereto, as applicable, and are not
intended to create any right or legal relationship, express or implied, among the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors or permitted assigns, on the one hand, and any third
party, including any Certificate Owner or other person covered under a GIE, on the other hand; provided, however, that the Investors Capital Indemnitees and the PHL Indemnitees are expressly intended to be third-party beneficiaries under this
Agreement. 

  

	 	13.04	ICC Not Underwriter, Insurer or Producer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, none of the ICC, its Affiliates, or any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, or other representatives are or shall be deemed to be (1) underwriters of any security, including the GIE; (2) insurers, guarantors, or underwriters of any obligation of either PHLVIC and PLIC under
the GIE, including the obligation of either of PHLVIC or PLIC to pay claims and benefits arising under the GIE, or (3) insurance agents, brokers or producers, except in the case of ICC and certain of its officers, employees, agents, or other
representatives, who are licensed as insurance producers as required under applicable State insurance Laws. 

  

 - 26 - 

	 	13.05	PHL Parties not Investment Adviser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document, none of the PHL Parties or any of their respective directors,
officers, employees, agents, or other representatives are investment advisers under the Advisers Act or similar State Laws.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION 
  

	 	14.01	Disputes Regarding PHL Services or Investors Capital Services.

breach of the other’s duty to provide either the PHL Services or the Investor Capital Services, as applicable, the non-breaching Parties shall promptly notify the other Parties in writing, and such breaching Party or Parties shall promptly
respond. If the problem is not promptly resolved among the Parties, a PHL Parties Authorized Person and an ICC Authorized Person shall, before the end of the first full Business Day following the date on which initial notice is provided by the
non-breaching Parties, consult with each other in good faith concerning the existence, cause and remediation of the possible breach. 

  

	 	14.01.1.1	If such Authorized Persons mutually determine that the problem constitutes a material breach, the breaching Party or Parties shall promptly take such actions and make any
modifications and/or changes as are required to correct the breach, without charge to the non-breaching Parties. 

  

	 	14.01.1.2	If such Authorized Persons cannot mutually determine whether the problem is the result of a material breach, then the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with
Section 15.02 below.

arbitrator.

or other undue means; (ii) there was evident partiality by the arbitrator appointed as a neutral or corruption in any of the arbitrators or misconduct prejudicing the rights of any Party; or (iii) the arbitrators exceeded their powers. The
arbitrators shall issue a written opinion in support of the arbitration award. 

  

	 	14.02.3	The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive damages or any other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages, and may not, in any event,
make any ruling, finding or award that does not conform to the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement. 

  

	 	14.02.4	Each Party shall be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred by such Party, including attorneys, although the cost of arbitration, including the fees of the
arbitrators, shall be borne equally by the PHL Parties, on the one hand, and the ICC, on the other; provided, however, that the panel of arbitrators may determine to award fees and costs, including attorney fees, to the prevailing Party.

 SECTION 15 DURATION AND TERMINATION 
  

	 	15.01	Duration. Except as to termination of new business pursuant to Section 16.02 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in effect for so long as any Certificate

 SECTION 16 MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	 	16.01	Assignment or Change of Control. 

  

	 	16.01.1	Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the Parties except as otherwise provided in this

controlling person (such Party and persons or entities collectively, the “Control Group”), or (2) the 

  

 - 30 - 

	 	 
combined voting power of the Control Group’s then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, in each case

	 	(b)	the election or appointment to the board of directors of any member of the Control Group, or resignation of or removal from such board of directors with the result that the
individuals who as of the date hereof constituted the board of directors (the “Incumbent Board”) of each member of the Control Group no longer constitute at least a majority of such board of directors, provided that any person who becomes
a director subsequent to the date hereof whose appointment, election, or nomination for election by the shareholders of each member of the Control Group, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Board (other than an
appointment, election or nomination of an individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the directors of a member of the Control Group) shall be, for purposes
of this Agreement, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or 

  

	 	(c)	the approval by the shareholders of any member of the Control Group of: 

  

	 	(1)	a reorganization, merger or consolidation by reason of which the persons who were the shareholders of such member of the Control Group immediately prior to such

election of directors, or

transfer, lease or other disposition when the transaction is among Parties that are under common control both before and after such transaction. 
  

	 	16.02	Rights, Remedies, Etc. are Cumulative. The rights, remedies, and obligations contained in this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to any and all rights,
remedies, and obligations, at law or in equity, which the Parties may be entitled to under State and federal laws.

	 	16.03	Notices. Except as set for in this paragraph, all notices hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be effective upon delivery, which shall be made (1) by hand
delivery, (2) by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, (3) by a nationally-recognized overnight courier service, to the addresses set forth below, or to such other address as any Party
