results of such inspection. The results of such inspection, if any, shall be binding on both Parties. Any underpayments shall be paid by Aegerion within thirty (30) days of notification of the results of such inspection. Any overpayments shall
be fully creditable against amounts payable in subsequent payment periods. Bayer shall pay for such inspections, except that in the event there is any upward adjustment in aggregate royalties payable for any calendar year shown by such inspection of
more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/%) of the amount paid, Aegerion shall reimburse Bayer for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such accountant. Any underpayments or overpayments
under this Section 5.7(c) shall be subject to the currency exchange provisions set forth in Section 5.7(d) as applied to the calendar quarter during which the royalty obligations giving rise to such underpayment or overpayment were
incurred by Aegerion. 
 (d) Currency Exchange. With respect to Net Sales invoiced in U.S. dollars, the Net Sales and
the amounts due to Bayer hereunder shall be expressed in U.S. dollars. With respect to Net Sales invoiced in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Net Sales shall be expressed in the domestic currency of the entity making the sale, together with
the U.S. dollar equivalent, calculated using the official rate of exchange of such domestic currency as quoted by the Wall Street Journal, New York edition, for the last business day of the calendar quarter for which the payment is made. 

(e) Tax Withholding; Value-Added Tax. Aegerion shall have the right to withhold from payments due hereunder any tax which Bayer
is liable to under the appropriate tax laws and for the payments of which Aegerion is responsible. Bayer shall be sent tax receipts by Aegerion certifying the payments of the tax, so that Bayer may use it for claiming a credit on the tax payable by
Bayer in Germany on such payments. No deduction shall be made or a reduced amount shall be deducted if Bayer furnishes a document from all required tax authorities to Aegerion sufficiently before the due date of the payments, certifying that the
payments are exempt from tax or subject to a reduced tax rate according to the applicable convention for the avoidance of double taxation. Except for such withholding taxes and except for the personal corporate income tax of Bayer, any other taxes,
assessments, fees and charges 

  

 11 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
imposed against payments due to Bayer hereunder shall be borne by Aegerion. Besides the above said, both Parties will undertake commercially reasonable
efforts to minimize the allover tax burden for each of the Parties. Value-added tax shall apply as legally required. 
 (f)
Interest Due. Aegerion shall pay Bayer interest on any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at a rate of [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
/*/%) per month or the maximum applicable legal rate, if less, calculated on the total number of days payment is delinquent. 
 Section 6. Patent
Prosecution, Infringement and Extensions. 
 6.1 Appointment and Cooperation. With respect to all of the rights and activities of
Aegerion set forth in this Section 6, Bayer hereby appoints Aegerion as its agent for such purposes with the authority to act on Bayer’s behalf with respect to the Bayer Patent Rights. Bayer shall cooperate with Aegerion in the exercise of
Aegerion’s authority granted herein, and shall execute such documents and take such additional action as Aegerion may request in connection therewith. The Parties shall update Exhibits B-1 and B-2 upon either
Party’s reasonable request. 
 6.2 Prosecution and Maintenance. 
 (a) By Aegerion. On the Effective Date, Bayer shall provide Aegerion with copies of the complete prosecution files for all patents
and patent applications listed on Exhibit B. Aegerion shall be solely responsible for the preparation, prosecution (including any interferences, oppositions, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of the Bayer Patent
Rights, and all filing, prosecution, and maintenance decisions with respect to the Bayer Patent Rights shall be made by Aegerion, provided Bayer shall retain the right to give comments to Aegerion on material aspects of those activities. Aegerion
shall be responsible for all its costs incurred for such preparation, prosecution and maintenance. Each Party shall provide to the other Party copies of any papers relating to the filing, prosecution or maintenance of Bayer Patent Rights promptly
upon receipt. Bayer shall not take any action with respect to the prosecution or maintenance of any Bayer Patent Rights without the prior written consent of Aegerion, except as contemplated by Section 6.2(b). 
 (b) By Bayer. Aegerion shall not knowingly permit any of the Bayer Patent Rights to be abandoned in any country without Bayer first
being given an opportunity to assume full responsibility for the continued prosecution and maintenance of same. In the event that Aegerion decides not to continue the prosecution or maintenance of a patent application or patent within Bayer Patent
Rights in any country, Aegerion shall provide Bayer with notice of this decision at least thirty (30) days prior to any pending lapse or abandonment thereof. In the event that Bayer elects to assume responsibility for such prosecution and
maintenance within thirty (30) days of Aegerion’s notice, Section 6.2(a) shall thereafter apply to such patent application(s) and patent(s) except that the role of Aegerion and Bayer shall be reversed thereunder (including that Bayer
shall be solely responsible for all costs arising from those activities). Such patent application(s) and patent(s) shall otherwise continue to be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement in the same way as the other Bayer Patent
Rights. 
 (c) Bayer Improvement Patents. For any Bayer Improvement Patents, the roles of the Parties under
this Sections 6.2 shall be reversed. 
 6.3 Enforcement and Defense. 
 (a) By Aegerion. In the event that Bayer or Aegerion becomes aware of a suspected infringement of any Bayer Patent Right, or any
such Bayer Patent Right is challenged in any action or proceeding (other than any interferences, oppositions, reissue proceedings or reexaminations, which are addressed above), such Party shall notify the other Party promptly, and following such
notification, the Parties shall confer. Aegerion shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to defend any such action or 

  

 12 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
proceeding or bring an infringement action with respect to such infringement at its own expense, in its own name and entirely under its own direction and
control, or settle any such action or proceeding by sublicense. Bayer shall reasonably assist Aegerion in any action or proceeding being defended or prosecuted if so requested, and shall join such action or proceeding if reasonably requested by
Aegerion or required by applicable law. Bayer shall have the right to participate in any such action or proceeding with its own counsel at its own expense and without reimbursement. 
 (b) By Bayer. If Aegerion elects not to settle, defend or bring any action for infringement described in Section 6.3(a) and so
notifies Bayer, then, if and only if such infringement would give rise to royalties payable to Bayer hereunder had Aegerion conducted the alleged infringing activities, Bayer may defend or bring such action at its own expense, in its own name and
entirely under its own direction and control, subject to the following: Aegerion shall reasonably assist Bayer in any action or proceeding being defended or prosecuted if so requested, and shall join such action or proceeding if requested by Bayer
or required by applicable law. Aegerion shall have the right to participate in any such action or proceeding with its own counsel at its own expense and without reimbursement. No settlement of any such action or proceeding which restricts the scope,
or adversely affects the enforceability, of a Bayer Patent Right may be entered into by Bayer without the prior written consent of Aegerion. 
 (c) Escrow in Certain Circumstances. On a country-by-country and product-by-product basis, in any action or proceeding in which a Third Party challenges the validity or enforceability of all (and not less than
all) of the Valid Claims under the Bayer Patent Rights in such country that cover such Licensed Product or its use (including by way of interference, opposition, reissue proceeding or reexamination, or in response to enforcement pursuant to
Section 6.3), then upon filing of such action or proceeding by a Third Party, fifty percent (50%) of all the royalties which would otherwise be paid to Bayer, with respect to such Licensed Product for such country affected by such action
or proceeding, shall be deposited in an interest bearing escrow account, until such time as all such Valid Claims expire. All monies in such escrow account, together with all accrued interest, shall be retained by Aegerion if all such Valid Claims
are found invalid or unenforceable by a court of proper jurisdiction in a decision unappealable or unappealed within the time allowed for appeal, and, if at least one such Valid Claim is found not invalid and not unenforceable by a court of proper
jurisdiction in such a decision, all monies in such escrow account, together with all accrued interest, shall be released to Bayer immediately. 
 (d) Withdrawal. If either Party brings an action or proceeding under this Section 6.3 and subsequently ceases to pursue or withdraws from such action or proceeding, it shall promptly notify the other Party
and the other Party may substitute itself for the withdrawing Party under the terms of this Section 6.3. 
 (e)
Damages. In the event that either Party exercises the rights conferred in this Section 6.3 and recovers any damages or other sums in such action or proceeding or in settlement thereof, such damages or other sums recovered shall first be
applied to all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection therewith (including attorneys fees), unless not reimbursable hereunder. If such recovery is insufficient to cover all such costs and expenses of both Parties, the
controlling Party’s costs shall be paid in full first before any of the other Party’s costs. If after such reimbursement any funds shall remain from such damages or other sums recovered, [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/. 

  

 13 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 6.4 Third Party IP Claims. In the event of (i) a holding in any action or proceeding
enjoining Aegerion or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees from manufacturing, using, selling, offering for sale, importing, developing or commercializing any Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products, or holding Aegerion or any such other entities
liable for damages for any such activities, in each case such holding unappealable or unappealed within the time allowed for appeal, or (ii) a settlement of any action or proceeding requiring payment of damages by Aegerion or any such party,
Bayer shall refund to Aegerion royalties paid with respect to all Licensed Products affected by such action or proceeding, from the time such action or proceeding is first brought, sufficient to reimburse Aegerion and all such entities for
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/%) of all damages and costs and expenses paid or incurred by any of them with respect to such action or proceeding attributable to infringement or
misappropriation of any Third Party’s patent or other intellectual property rights, provided that in no event shall Bayer be required to refund more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
/*/%) of any such royalties paid by Aegerion, and provided further, in the event that such refund is not sufficient to compensate for such [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/%) of all such
damages and expenses, Aegerion shall be entitled to reduce royalties payable to Bayer by up to [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/%) hereunder in each subsequent calendar quarter until such
time as Aegerion recovers in full such [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/ percent ([CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] /*/%) of all such damages and expenses. 
 6.5 Patent Extensions; Orange Book Listings; Patent Certifications. 
 (a) Patent
Term Extension. If elections with respect to obtaining patent term extension or supplemental protection certificates or their equivalents in any country with respect to Bayer Patent Rights or other patent rights covering Licensed Products or
their manufacture or use are available, Aegerion shall have the sole right to make any such elections. 
 (b) Data
Exclusivity and Orange Book Listings. With respect to data exclusivity periods (such as those periods listed in the FDA’s Orange Book (including any available pediatric extensions) or periods under national implementations of Article
10.1(a)(iii) of Directive 2001/EC/83, and all equivalents in any country), Aegerion shall have the sole right to seek and maintain all such data exclusivity periods available for the Licensed Products. 
 (c) Notification of Patent Certification. Bayer shall notify and provide Aegerion with copies of any allegations of alleged patent
invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of a Bayer Patent Right pursuant to a Paragraph IV Patent Certification by a Third Party filing an Abbreviated New Drug Application, an application under §505(b)(2) of the United States Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended, or any other similar patent certification by a Third Party, and any foreign equivalent thereof. Such notification and copies shall be provided to Aegerion within two (2) days after Bayer receives such
certification, and shall be sent to the address set forth in Section 10.5. 
 Section 7. Confidential Information and Publicity. 
 7.1 Confidentiality. 
 (a) Confidential Information. Except as expressly provided herein, each of the Parties agrees that, for itself and its Affiliates, and for as long as this Agreement is in effect and for a period of 

  

 14 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
ten (10) years thereafter, a Party and its Affiliates (the “Receiving Party”) receiving Confidential Information of the other Party or
its Affiliates (the “Disclosing Party”) shall (i) not disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, except for disclosures expressly permitted below, and
(ii) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those licensed or otherwise authorized or permitted by this Agreement. For clarity, all Confidential Information of Aegerion received by or disclosed to Bayer hereunder shall be
used by Bayer only for ensuring that Aegerion complies with its obligations hereunder and for no other purposes. 
 (b)
Exceptions. The obligations in Section 7.1(a) shall not apply with respect to any portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party can show by competent proof: 
 (i) is publicly disclosed by the Disclosing Party, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party hereunder; 
 (ii) was known to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates, without any obligation to keep it confidential or any restriction on its
use, prior to disclosure by the Disclosing Party; 
 (iii) is subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party or any of its
Affiliates by a Third Party lawfully in possession thereof and without any obligation to keep it confidential or any restriction on its use; 
 (iv) is published by a Third Party or otherwise becomes publicly available or enters the public domain, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party; or 
 (v) has been independently developed by employees or contractors of the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates without the aid,
application or use of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. 
 (c) Authorized Disclosures. The Receiving
Party may disclose Confidential Information belonging to the Disclosing Party to the extent (and only to the extent) such disclosure is reasonably necessary in the following instances: 
 (i) subject to Section 7.2, by either Party in order to comply with applicable non-patent law (including any securities law or
regulation or the rules of a securities exchange) and with judicial process, if in the reasonable opinion of the Receiving Party’s counsel, such disclosure is necessary for such compliance; 
 (ii) by either Party, in connection with prosecuting or defending litigation, making regulatory filings, and filing, prosecuting and
enforcing patent applications and patents (including Bayer Patent Rights in accordance with Section 6); 
 (iii) by
Aegerion, to its Affiliates, potential and future collaborators (including Sublicensees), permitted acquirers or assignees under Section 10.1, research collaborators, subcontractors, investment bankers, investors, lenders, and their and each of
Aegerion and its Affiliates’ respective directors, employees, contractors and agents; and 
 (iv) by Bayer to its
Affiliates, permitted acquirers or assignees under Section 10.1, investment bankers, investors, lenders, and their and Bayer and its Affiliates’ respective directors, employees, contractors and agents, 
 provided that (1) with respect to Section 7.1(c)(i) or 7.1(c)(ii), where reasonably possible, the Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party of the
Receiving Party’s intent to make any disclosure pursuant thereto sufficiently prior to making such disclosure so as to allow the Disclosing Party adequate time to take whatever action it may deem appropriate to protect the confidentiality of
the information to be disclosed, and (2) with respect to Sections 7.1(c)(iii) and 7.1(c)(iv), each of those named people and entities must be bound prior to disclosure by confidentiality and non-use restrictions at least as
restrictive 

  

 15 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
as those contained in this Section 7 (other than investment bankers, investors and lenders, who must be bound prior to disclosure by commercially
reasonable obligations of confidentiality). In addition to the foregoing, Aegerion and its Affiliates and Sublicensees may make such disclosures of Bayer Know-How specifically concerning the Licensed Compound and its use as any of them may deem
reasonably necessary for their business. 
 7.2 Terms of this Agreement; Publicity. 
 (a) The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be treated as Confidential Information of both Parties, and thus may be
disclosed only as permitted by Section 7.1(c). Each Party agrees not to issue any press release or public statement disclosing information relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the terms hereof without the prior
written consent of the other Party (or as such consent may be obtained in accordance with Section 7.2(b)), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, or as permitted by Section 7.1(c). 
 (b) In the event either Party (the “Issuing Party”) desires to issue a press release or other public statement disclosing
information relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the terms hereof, the Issuing Party shall provide the other Party (the “Reviewing Party”) with a copy of the proposed press release or public
statement (the “Release”). The Reviewing Party shall have three (3) business days to provide any comments on such Release, and if the Receiving Party fails to provide any comments during such three-day period, the Reviewing
Party shall be deemed to have consented to the issuance of such Release. If the Receiving Party provides any comments, the Parties shall consult on the such Release and work in good faith to prepare a mutually acceptable Release. Either Party may
subsequently publicly disclose any information previously contained in any Release so consented to. 
 7.3 Relationship to the
Confidentiality Agreement. This Agreement supersedes the Confidentiality Agreement, provided that all “Confidential Information” disclosed or received by the Parties thereunder shall be deemed “Confidential Information”
hereunder and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Section 8. Warranties; Limitations of Liability; Indemnification

 8.1 Bayer Representations and Warranties. Bayer covenants, represents and warrants to Aegerion that as of the Effective Date:

 (a) Bayer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of state or jurisdiction in
which it is incorporated, and it has full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to grant the licenses and other rights to Aegerion as herein described. 
 (b) This Agreement has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action, and when executed and delivered will become a valid and
binding contract of Bayer enforceable against Bayer in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other law affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time if effect, and to
general principles of equity. 
 (c) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not conflict with any
other agreement, contract, instrument or understanding, oral or written, to which Bayer is a party, or by which it is bound, nor will it violate any law applicable to Bayer. 
 (d) All necessary consents, approvals and authorizations of all regulatory and governmental authorities and other persons or entities
required to be obtained by Bayer in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder have been obtained. 
 (e) Exhibit A contains a list of all Bayer Know-How in Bayer’s possession as of the Effective Date that Bayer has reasonably
concluded Aegerion will find reasonably necessary or useful for 

  

 16 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, importation, research, development or commercialization or other exploitation of any Licensed Compounds or
Licensed Products or Improvements. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is a complete and accurate list of all patents and patent applications owned (in whole or in part) or otherwise Controlled by Bayer or any of its Affiliates that the
manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or importation of any Licensed Compounds (alone or as part of any Combination Product) would infringe. To the knowledge of Bayer, the issued claims included in the Bayer Patent Rights are valid and enforceable,
and no written claim has been made (except by a patent examiner during prosecution of the patent application(s) that resulted in any such issued patent claims), and no action or proceeding has been commenced or threatened, alleging to the contrary.
Bayer is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Bayer Patent Rights. None of the Bayer Patent Rights or Bayer Know-How is subject to any lien, security interest or other encumbrance. To Bayer’s knowledge,
the conception and reduction to practice of the Bayer Patent Rights have not constituted or involved the misappropriation of trade secrets or other rights or property of any Third Party. There are no claims, judgments or settlements against or
amounts with respect thereto owed by Bayer or any of its Affiliates relating to the Bayer Patent Rights. To Bayer’s knowledge, there has been no infringement by any Third Party of any Bayer Patent Rights. The use or practice of the license
grant contained in Section 2.1 shall not trigger any payment obligation by Bayer or any of its Affiliates or Former Licensees (as defined below) to any Third Party. 
 (f) There is no pending action or proceeding alleging, or, to Bayer’s knowledge, any written communication alleging, that the
manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale or importation of any Licensed Compounds (alone or as part of any Combination Product), the activities of Bayer or any of its Affiliates or any of their licensees with respect to any such Licensed Compounds, or
the practice or use of the Bayer Patent Rights or Bayer Know-How, has or will infringe or misappropriate any patent or other intellectual property rights of any Third Party. Bayer has notified Aegerion of all such rights of any Third Party of which
Bayer is aware that are related to the foregoing activities, including those patents set forth on Exhibit E-1. 
 (g)
Except as set forth in Exhibit E-2: 
 (i) Pharmaceutical Product Development, Inc. (together with its affiliates,
including Medical Research Laboratories International, LLC, collectively “PPD”) and Evan Stein, MD, PhD (“Dr. Stein”) constitute all Former Licensees known to Bayer, wherein “Former Licensees” means Bayer’s former
licensees under any Bayer Patent Rights or Bayer Know-How with respect to any Licensed Compounds and their sublicensees, subcontractors, clinical partners and other collaborators. 
 (ii) Since Bayer has not done an in-depth analysis of IP since 2002 when implitapide was originally out-licensed, Bayer can only represent
that to its knowledge in light of the gap identified, it has sufficient rights (by ownership or license) in and to all Former Licensees IP (as defined below) for all Former Licensee IP to be treated as Bayer Patent Rights and Bayer Know-How
hereunder (including being subject to the exclusive license grant contained in Section 2.1), wherein “Former Licensee IP” means all Technology and patent and other intellectual property rights created or owned or otherwise Controlled
by any Former Licensee or any of its Affiliates, in each case related to the manufacture, use, sale, offer for sale, importation, development or commercialization of any Licensed Compounds. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and to
Bayer’s knowledge, PPD does not retain any right, title or interest in or to any Former Licensee IP, and no Former Licensee has filed or obtained any patent rights concerning any of those activities. 
 (iii) To the knowledge of Bayer, no Former Licensee has any supply of Licensed Compounds. 
 (h) To the extent that Bayer has the benefit of any contractual rights from any Former Licensees concerning the development or
commercialization of any Licensed Compounds, Bayer shall 

  

 17 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise the same on behalf of Aegerion or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees upon request (or if not so
commercially reasonable, shall transfer the right to exercise the same to Aegerion or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees as Aegerion may designate and as may be permitted by the applicable terms). 
 (i) As of the Effective Date, except as set forth in Exhibit E-3, Bayer does not have any knowledge of any scientific or clinical
facts or circumstances that would materially and adversely affect the safety, efficacy or market performance of any Licensed Compounds (alone or as part of any Combination Product) that have not been communicated to Aegerion. 
 8.2 Aegerion Representations and Warranties. Aegerion covenants, represents and warrants to Bayer that as of the Effective Date: 
 (a) Aegerion is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of state in which it is incorporated,
and it has full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to accept the rights and licenses granted as herein described. 
 (b) This Agreement has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action, and when executed and delivered will become a valid and binding contract of Aegerion enforceable against Aegerion in accordance with its terms, subject to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time if effect, and to general principles of equity. 
 (c) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not conflict with any other agreement, contract, instrument or
understanding, oral or written, to which Aegerion is a party, or by which it is bound, nor will it violate any law applicable to Aegerion. 
 (d) All necessary consents, approvals and authorizations of all regulatory and governmental authorities and other persons or entities required to be obtained by Aegerion in connection with the execution and delivery
of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder have been obtained. 
 8.3 Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET
FORTH HEREIN, NEITHER BAYER NOR AEGERION MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 
 8.4 Limitation of Liability. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER OR ANY THIRD
PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS SECTION 8.4 SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE PARTIES’ INDEMNIFICATION RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS UNDER
SECTIONS 8.6(a) AND 8.6(b). 
 8.5 Performance by Affiliates. The Parties recognize that each Party may perform some or all of
its obligations under this Agreement through Affiliates and Third Party contractors provided, however, that each Party shall remain responsible and liable for the performance by its Affiliates and Third Party contractors and shall cause its
Affiliates and Third Party contractors to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection therewith. 
 8.6
Indemnification. 
 (a) Aegerion Indemnity. Aegerion hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Bayer and its
Affiliates, and their respective employees, directors, agents and contractors, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns and representatives (“Bayer Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all claims, liability, threatened claims,
damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), suits, proceedings, losses or judgments, whether for money or equitable relief, of any kind, including death, 

  

 18 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 
personal injury, illness, product liability or property damage or the failure to comply with applicable law (but not infringement or misappropriation of
patents or other intellectual property rights) (collectively, “Losses”), arising from any Third Party claim due to the use, manufacture, sale, development or commercialization of any Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products by or for
Aegerion or any of its Affiliates, Sublicensees, agents and contractors, except to the extent that such Losses arise from (a) the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any Bayer Indemnitees or (b) any breach of this Agreement
by Bayer. 
 (b) Bayer Indemnity. Bayer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Aegerion, its Affiliates and Sublicensees,
and their respective employees, directors, agents and contractors, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns and representatives (“Aegerion Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all Losses arising from any Third Party claim due
to the use, manufacture, sale, development or commercialization of any Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products by or for Bayer or any of its Affiliates, licensees (other than Aegerion and its Affiliates and Sublicensees), agents and contractors,
except to the extent that such Losses arise from (a) the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any Aegerion Indemnitees or (b) any breach of this Agreement by Aegerion. 
 (c) Indemnification Procedure. A claim to which indemnification applies under Section 8.6(a) or Section 8.6(b) shall be
referred to herein as a “Claim”. If any person or entity (each, an “Indemnitee”) intends to claim indemnification under this Section 8.6, the Indemnitee shall notify the other Party (the “Indemnitor”) in
writing promptly upon becoming aware of any claim that may be a Claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligation under this
Agreement except and only to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice). The Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and control the defense of such Claim at its own expense with counsel
selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnitee, if representation of such
Indemnitee by the counsel retained by the Indemnitor would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnitee and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceedings. If the Indemnitor does not assume
the defense of such Claim as aforesaid, the Indemnitee may defend such Claim but shall have no obligation to do so. The Indemnitee shall not settle or compromise any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitor shall
not settle or compromise any Claim in any manner which would have an adverse effect on the Indemnitee’s interests, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor at the Indemnitor’s expense and shall make available to the Indemnitor all pertinent information under the control of the Indemnitee, which information shall be subject to
Section 7.1. 
 8.7 Insurance. Aegerion shall procure and maintain insurance policies for the following coverages with respect to
personal injury, bodily injury and property damage arising out of Aegerion’s performance under this Agreement: (a) during the term of this Agreement, comprehensive general liability, including broad form and contractual liability, in a
minimum amount of $3,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence and in the aggregate; (b) prior to the commencement of clinical trials involving any Licensed Products, clinical trials coverage in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 combined single
limit per occurrence and in the aggregate; and (c) prior to the First Commercial Sale of the first Licensed Product, product liability coverage, in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence and in the aggregate, with
the coverage provided for in clauses (b) and (c) to remain in force during the term of this Agreement and for at least five (5) years thereafter. The policies of insurance required by this Section 8.7 shall be issued by an
insurance carrier with an A.M. Best rating of “A” or better. Aegerion shall provide Bayer with insurance certificates evidencing the required coverage within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date and the commencement of each
policy period and any renewal periods. 
  

 19 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 Section 9. Term, Termination and Survival. 
 9.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms hereof or by mutual
written consent, shall continue on a country-by-country and product-by-product basis until the end of the period during which royalties are due hereunder on Net Sales of such Licensed Product in such country. Upon the end of such period for such
Licensed Product in such country, the license grant contained in Section 2.1 shall become perpetual, irrevocable and fully paid up with respect to such Licensed Product in such country. 
 9.2 Termination for Material Default. Either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon delivery of written notice to the other
Party in the event of any default in the performance by such other Party of any of such other Party’s material obligations under this Agreement, provided that such default has not been cured within ninety (90) days, or, in the event such
default results in a failure to make payment when due hereunder, thirty (30) days, after written notice thereof is given by the non-defaulting Party to the defaulting Party specifying the nature of the alleged default, provided the Parties shall
take all reasonable steps to resolve the matter pursuant to the process set forth in Section 10.6(a) during the applicable cure period and before any such termination becomes effective. Termination of this Agreement by Bayer under this
Section 9.2 shall be on a country-by-country and product-by-product basis (and not for the Agreement as a whole) if the default giving rise to termination is reasonably specific to one or more countries or one or more products (e.g., a
royalty dispute for one product in one or more countries). 
 9.3 Termination for Convenience by Aegerion. Aegerion may terminate this
Agreement in full for any reason effective upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Bayer. 
 9.4 Termination for Insolvency. To
the extent permitted by law, upon the filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of the assets for the benefit of creditors (a “Bankruptcy
Event”) by either Party, Bayer, in the case of a Bankruptcy Event by Aegerion, or Aegerion, in the case of a Bankruptcy Event by Bayer, may terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that, in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy proceeding,
such right to terminate shall only become effective if the subject Party consents to the involuntary bankruptcy or such proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof. Each Party shall retain and may fully exercise all
of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and foreign equivalents, including that upon commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against such Party undergoing a bankruptcy proceeding (the “Affected Party”)
under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or foreign equivalents, the non-Affected Party shall be entitled to complete duplicates of or complete access to, as such non-Affected Party deems appropriate, any Technology and patent and other intellectual property
rights and all embodiments hereof licensed or to be transferred to such non-Affected Party hereunder by the Affected Party. Such Technology, rights and embodiments shall be promptly delivered to the non-Affected Party (i) upon any such
commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding and upon written request thereof by the non-Affected Party, unless the Affected Party elects to continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) if not delivered under the
foregoing clause (i), upon the rejection of this Agreement by or on behalf of the Affected Party upon written request therefore by the non-Affected Party. This Section 9.4 is without prejudice to any rights the non-Affected Party may
have arising under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, foreign equivalents or other law.

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 9.5 Effect of Certain Terminations. Upon termination of this Agreement by Bayer pursuant to
Section 9.2 or 9.4 or by Aegerion pursuant to Section 9.3, or with respect to each applicable product and country as to which termination occurs pursuant to Section 9.2 (the rights and obligations of the Parties as to the remaining
products and countries in which termination under Section 9.2 has not occurred, being unaffected by such termination), all rights and licenses granted to Aegerion in Section 2 shall terminate with respect to each such terminated product and
country, with all rights of Aegerion under Bayer Patent Rights for each such terminated product and country reverting to Bayer, and Section 2.2(b) shall apply to all Sublicensees in each such terminated country for each such terminated product.
Further, upon any such termination and at Bayer’s reasonable request, on a country-by-country and product-by-product basis, Aegerion shall grant to Bayer a license to use, and shall provide to Bayer a copy of, all regulatory approvals, data,
filings and correspondence (including DMFs) then in Aegerion’s Control relating to such product and applicable to such country, but only for the continued development and commercialization of such product in such country, and provided that
(i) all such information shall be treated as Confidential Information of Aegerion hereunder, (ii) such license and use shall be subject to any rights of any Sublicensees that survive any such termination as contemplated by
Section 2.2(b) and this Section 9 (including, if such Sublicensee is an exclusive sublicensee for such product in such country, then there shall not be any such license nor any provision of such information by Aegerion but such Sublicensee
shall agree to be bound to Bayer in place of Aegerion for purposes of this sentence), and (iii) if such termination occurs after Aegerion or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees has filed for an NDA or its foreign equivalent or has obtained
regulatory approval or has made a First Commercial Sale for such product in such country, then Bayer shall pay to Aegerion commercially reasonable royalties in an amount to be agreed to by the Parties on sales of such product in such country to
reflect the investment in and value contributed by Aegerion and its Affiliates and Sublicensees to the development and commercialization of such product. 
 9.6 Right to Sell-Off Inventory. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, should Aegerion or any of its Affiliates or Sublicensees have any inventory of any Licensed Product, each of them shall have
six (6) months thereafter in which to dispose of such inventory (subject to the payment to Bayer of any royalties due hereunder thereon). 
 9.7 Survival. In addition to the termination consequences set forth in Section 9.5, the following provisions shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, as well as any other provision which
by its terms or by the context thereof, is intended to survive such termination: Sections 2.2(b), 2.5, 5.5(d), 5.7, 6.3 (but only with respect to any action or proceeding initiated before such expiration or termination),
6.4, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6, and Section 1, Section 7, Section 9 and Section 10. Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not relieve the Parties of any liability or
obligation which accrued hereunder prior to the effective date of such termination or expiration, nor preclude either Party from pursuing all rights and remedies it may have hereunder or at law or in equity, subject to Section 10.6, with respect to
any breach of this Agreement nor prejudice either Party’s right to obtain performance of any obligation. 
 Section 10. General Provisions.

 10.1 Assignment. Except as expressly provided by Section 2.1, 2.2 or 8.5, neither Party may assign this Agreement, delegate
its obligations or otherwise transfer licenses or other rights created by this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that each Party may assign this Agreement as a
whole without such consent to an Affiliate or in connection with the acquisition (whether by merger, consolidation, sale or otherwise) of such Party or of that part of such Party’s business to which this Agreement relates, provided that such
Party provides written notice to the other Party of such assignment and the assignee thereof agrees in writing to be bound as such Party hereunder. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 10.1 shall be void. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 10.2 Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be held liable or responsible to the other Party nor
be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement for failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement if, but only to the extent that, such failure or delay results from causes beyond the reasonable control of the
affected Party, potentially including fire, floods, embargoes, terrorism, war, acts of war (whether war be declared or not), insurrections, riots, civil commotions, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, acts of God or acts, omissions or
delays in acting by any governmental authority or any other Party; provided that the Party affected shall promptly notify the other of the force majeure condition and shall exert reasonable efforts to eliminate, cure or overcome any such causes and
to resume performance of its obligations as soon as possible. 
 10.3 Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in
this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, unless the absence of the
invalidated provision(s) adversely affects the substantive rights of the Parties. The Parties shall in such an instance use their reasonable best efforts to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) with valid, legal and enforceable
provision(s) which, insofar as practical, implement the purposes of this Agreement. 
 10.4 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may not
be modified, amended or rescinded, in whole or part, except by a written instrument signed by the Parties; provided that any unilateral undertaking or waiver made by one Party in favor of the other shall be enforceable if undertaken in a writing
signed by the Party to be charged with the undertaking or waiver. No delay or omission by either Party hereto in exercising any right or power occurring upon any noncompliance or default by the other Party with respect to any of the terms of this
Agreement shall impair any such right or power or be construed to be a waiver thereof. A waiver by either of the Parties of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements to be performed by the other shall not be construed to be a waiver of any
succeeding breach thereof or of any other covenant, condition or agreement herein contained.

 10.6 Dispute Resolution. Disputes
arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 10.6; provided, however, that in the event a dispute cannot be resolved without an adjudication of the rights or obligations of a Third Party (other
than a Bayer Indemnitee or Aegerion Indemnitee identified in Sections 8.6(a) or 8.6(b), as applicable), the dispute procedures set forth in this Section 10.6 shall be inapplicable as to such dispute. 
 (a) In the event of a dispute between the Parties, the Parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute by negotiation
and consultation between themselves. In the event that such dispute is not resolved on an informal basis within forty-five (45) days, any Party may, by written notice to the other, have such dispute referred to each of the Parties’
respective CEOs or his or her designee (who shall be a senior executive), who shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute by negotiation and consultation for a thirty (30) day period following receipt of such written notice. 

(b) In the event the Parties’ CEOs (or designees) are not able to resolve such dispute, either Party may at any time after such
30-day period submit such dispute to be finally settled by arbitration administered in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in effect at the time of submission. The arbitration
shall be heard and determined by three (3) arbitrators. Aegerion and Bayer shall each appoint one arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be selected by the two Party-appointed arbitrators, or, failing agreement within sixty e(60) days
following the date of receipt by the respondent of the claim, by the AAA. Such arbitration shall take place in New York, NY. The arbitration award so given shall be a final and binding determination of the dispute, shall be fully enforceable in any
court of competent jurisdiction, and shall not include any damages expressly prohibited by Section 8.4. 
  

 23 

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 
  

 (c) Costs of arbitration are to be divided by the Parties in the following manner:
Aegerion shall pay for the arbitrator it chooses, Bayer shall pay for the arbitrator it chooses, and the costs of the third arbitrator shall be divided equally between the Parties. Except in a proceeding to enforce the results of the arbitration or
as otherwise required by law, neither Party nor any arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties. 
 10.7 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of New Jersey, without regard to
its conflicts of law provisions. 
 10.8 Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to do and perform all such further acts and things and
shall execute and deliver such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents necessary or that the other Party may deem advisable in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and to evidence, perfect or
otherwise confirm its rights hereunder. 
 10.9 Relationship of the Parties. Each Party is an independent contractor under this
Agreement. Nothing contained herein is intended or is to be construed so as to constitute Bayer and Aegerion as partners, agents or joint venturers. Neither Party shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any
obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement or undertaking with any Third Party. There are no express or implied third party beneficiaries hereunder (except for Aegerion
Indemnitees other than Aegerion and Bayer Indemnitees other than Bayer for purposes of Section 8.6). 
 10.10 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement (along with the Exhibits) contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces any and all previous arrangements and understandings, including the Confidentiality
Agreement, whether oral or written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 10.11 Headings. The captions to
the several Sections hereof are not a part of this Agreement, but are merely guides or labels to assist in locating and reading the several Sections hereof. 
 10.12 Waiver of Rule of Construction. Each Party has had the opportunity to consult with counsel in connection with the review, drafting and negotiation of this Agreement. Accordingly, the rule of construction
that any ambiguity in this Agreement shall be construed against the drafting party shall not apply. 
 10.13 Interpretation. Whenever
any provision of this Agreement uses the term “including” (or “includes”), such term shall be deemed to mean “including without limitation” (or “includes without limitations”). “Herein,”
“hereby,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and other equivalent words refer to this Agreement as an entirety and not solely to the particular portion of this Agreement in which any such word is used. All definitions set forth
herein shall be deemed applicable whether the words defined are used herein in the singular or the plural. Unless otherwise provided, all references to Sections and Exhibits in this Agreement are to Sections and Exhibits of this Agreement.
References to any Sections include Sections and subsections that are part of the related Section (e.g., a section numbered “Section 2.2” would be part of “Section 2”, and references to
“Section 2.2” would also refer to material contained in the subsection described as “Section 2.2(a)”) 
 10.14 Counterparts; Facsimiles. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile execution and
delivery of this Agreement by either Party shall constitute a legal, valid and binding execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Party.

 Bayer has communicated to Aegerion that Bayer’s
development of the Licensed Compounds was discontinued by Bayer on the basis of a negative risk-benefit assessment of the Licensed Compounds conducted by Bayer under their clinical development program. Aegerion acknowledges Bayer made the judgment
not to continue development of the Compounds due to what it perceived under its clinical development program as unacceptable adverse events for daily dosages of 80 mg and 160 mg per day form compared with the observed cholesterol lowering efficacy.

 Exhibit 10.17 
 SUBLEASE AGREEMENT 
 THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (this “Sublease”) is made and entered into as
of this 6 day of June, 2006, by and between Tibbett & Britten Group North America, Inc., Delaware corporation having offices at 570 Polaris Parkway, Westerville, Ohio 43082 (“Sublessor”), and AEGERION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware
corporation, having offices at 22 Canterbury Lane, Summit, New Jersey 079011 (“Sublessee”). 
 Recitals 
 A. Sublessor and GLB 3, L.L.C., a New Jersey limited liability company (“Lessor”), entered into that certain Lease dated April 28, 2004
(the “Lease”). 
 B. Pursuant to the Lease, Sublessor leases from Lessor, and Lessor leases to Sublessor, approximately 7,201
square feet of office space within the building located at 1140 Route 22 East, Bridgewater, New Jersey, as described more particularly on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Premises”). 
 C. Sublessor desires to lease to Sublessee, and Sublessee desires to lease from Sublessor, the Premises. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the covenants and agreements contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows: 
 1. Premises. Subject to and upon
the terms, provisions and conditions set forth hereinafter, Sublessor hereby leases, demises and lets to Sublessee, and Sublessee hereby leases and takes from Sublessor, the Premises, together with Sublessor’s rights in and to 29 parking spaces
serving the Premises. 
 2. Incorporation of Lease. This Sublease and all rights of Sublessee hereunder are subject to the
terms, conditions and provisions of the Lease, a copy of which is attached hereto, made a part hereof and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit B; provided, however, that to the extent the express terms of this Sublease are inconsistent
with the terms of the Lease, the express terms of this Sublease shall control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following provisions of the Lease are expressly not incorporated herein: Sections 4, 6.1, 6.3 (except for the definitions of Operating
Expenses and Tax Costs therein), 8, 12.1, 12.2, 36.20, 37, 38, and 39 and Exhibit D. Other than the payment of Base Rent and Direct Costs under the Lease, Sublessee hereby assumes and agrees to observe and perform the covenants and obligations of
Sublessor as lessee under the Lease with respect to the Premises. Sublessee shall not do anything or suffer or permit anything to be done which could result in a default under the Lease or permit the Lease to be canceled or terminated.
Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Lease to the contrary, Sublessee shall not have any right to exercise or have Sublessor (and Sublessor does not intend to exercise) exercise any option under the Lease. It is expressly understood and agreed
that Sublessor does not assume and shall not have any of the obligations or liabilities of the Lessor under the Lease, and that Sublessor is not making the representations or warranties, if any, made 

 
by the Lessor in the Lease. In the event of the termination of Sublessor’s interest as lessee under the Lease for any reason, this Sublease shall
terminate concurrently therewith without any liability of Sublessor to Sublessee. 
 Sublessor represents and warrants to Sublessee that
(i) a true and complete copy of the Lease is annexed hereto as Exhibit B, (ii) Sublessor is the Tenant under the Lease, (iii) Sublessor has full right, power and authority to execute this Sublease as Sublessor hereunder and to
sublet the Premises to Sublessee, subject only to obtaining the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent Sublessor shall use reasonable good-faith efforts to obtain, (iv) the person executing this Sublease on behalf of Sublessor has the
right, power and authority to do so, (v) the Lease is in full force and effect, (vi) no agreement or understanding exists between Sublessor and Lessor except as disclosed in the Lease, the existence of which would have an adverse effect
upon Sublessee, (vii) the Lease has not been amended, modified, supplemented or superseded in any manner, except as disclosed herein, (viii) there is no existing default under the Lease on the part of Sublessor, or to the actual knowledge
of Sublessor, on the part of Lessor, (ix) Sublessor has no material claims against, or material disputes with, Lessor currently existing under the Lease which might adversely affect the rights granted to Sublessee under this Sublease, and
(x) the Lease has not been assigned, nor has any portion of the Premises been subleased, encumbered or transferred by Sublessor . 
 3.
Lease Term. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Sublease, the term of this Sublease shall be for the period commencing on May 15, 2006, or such later date as Lessor shall consent to this Sublease (the
“Commencement Date”), and ending on October 24, 2010. 
 4. Base Rent. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, without
demand, notice, offset or reduction of any kind, monthly installments of base rent in the amount of $12,601.75 (“Base Rent”) beginning on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter through the remaining term hereof, which payments
shall be due and payable in advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the term of this Sublease; provided, however, that if the Commencement Date or expiration date of this Sublease occurs on a date other than the first day of
a calendar month, Sublessee’s monthly installment of rent shall be prorated for said month. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, Sublessee shall receive an abatement of Base Rent for the first two (2) months of the
term of this Sublease. 
 5. Direct Costs. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, as additional rent hereunder, the amount by which
Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Direct Costs, as defined in Section 6.3 of the Lease, for any calendar year during the term after the 2006 calendar year exceeds Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the amount of Direct Costs under the
Lease for the 2006 calendar year. Such Direct Costs shall be due and payable by Sublessee to Sublessor in installments together with the installments of Base Rent, which installments shall be based on the estimates for such Direct Costs for the
applicable calendar year provided by Lessor under Section 6.4.1, subject to adjustment based on the actual amounts of Direct Costs in accordance with Section 6.4.2. 
 6. Late Payment. If any installment of Base Rent, Tax Costs, Operating Expenses or additional rent (collectively, “Rent”) is not
received by Sublessor from Sublessee within five (5) calendar days of the date due, a late payment fee in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such 

  

 2 

 
delinquent payment shall be immediately due and payable from Sublessee to Sublessor; provided, however, that such five (5) day period shall not be
construed in any way to extend the due date of any such payment. 
 7. Provision of Services to Sublessee. The only services to
which the Sublessee is entitled to have provided to it hereunder are those to which Sublessor is entitled to have provided to it under the Lease. Sublessee shall look to the Lessor for the provision of all such services. Sublessor shall pay the Base
Rent and Additional Rent due under the Lease and shall use reasonable efforts, upon request of Sublessee, to cause Lessor to observe and/or perform its obligations under the Lease. If within ten (10) days after Sublessor’s receipt of
Sublessee’s written request to cause Sublessor to observe and/or perform its obligations under the Lease (or such shorter period as may be necessary in the case of an emergency), Sublessor shall fail to take any action reasonably requested by
Sublessee to enforce Sublessor’s rights under the Lease to the extent permitted under the Lease and applicable law, or to thereafter diligently and continuously pursue such action, then Sublessee shall have the right, at Sublessee’s sole
cost and expense, to take such action in the name of Sublessor; and, for that purpose, and only to that extent, all of the rights of Sublessor to enforce the obligations of Sublessor under the Sublease with respect to the Premises are hereby
conferred upon, and are conditionally assigned to, Sublessee and Sublessee is hereby subrogated to such rights, including, without limitation, the benefit of any recovery or relief. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless against and
from any and all losses, claims, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from or arising in connection with Sublessee’s actions taken in accordance with this Section 7. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (A) Lessor defaults in its obligations under the Lease and such default gives rise to any abatement of rental
payments under the Lease, Sublessee shall have the right to a corresponding abatement of its rental payments under this Sublease, and (B) Lessor defaults in its obligations under the Lease and such default gives rise to a right on the part of
Sublessor to terminate the Lease, or if Sublessor shall have the right to terminate the Lease in connection with an event of casualty or condemnation, Sublessee shall have the right to terminate this Sublease. 
 If Sublessee shall require overtime or additional heating, ventilation or air conditioning, condenser water or any other service required to be provided
by Lessor under the Lease, Sublessor consents to Sublessee requesting the same directly from Lessor in accordance with the provisions of the Lease. Sublessee shall pay or reimburse Sublessor for the full amount of the charges payable to Lessor for
providing such services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessor refuses to recognize any such request of Sublessee, upon receipt of Sublessee’s request that Sublessor do so, Sublessor will promptly make such request directly to Lessor on
behalf of Sublessee. 
 8. Maintenance and Repair. Sublessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises in good
condition and repair and shall make all necessary repairs and replacements thereto, other than the maintenance to be performed by the Lessor in accordance with the Lease. If Sublessee fails to promptly make any repairs or replacements to the
Premises as required under this Sublease or the Lease after expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, Sublessor may, but shall not be obligated to, make such repairs or replacements, the cost and expense of which shall be immediately due
from Sublessee to Sublessor as additional rent. Interest shall 

  

 3 

 
accrue and be due and payable by Sublessee on the sum so expended by Sublessor at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum (the “Default
Rate”) until paid. 
 9. Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Sublessee continues to make the lease payments and otherwise perform
all of the other terms of this Sublease, Sublessor shall not in any manner hinder or otherwise disturb Sublessee’s quiet enjoyment of the Premises. 
 10. Indemnification. Unless arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of Sublessor, Sublessee shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Sublessor from and against any and all liabilities, claims,
damages, losses, judgments, costs and expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising in connection with Sublessee’s use or occupancy of the Premises or the building or the project of which it is a part,
the presence or release of hazardous materials arising as a result of Sublessee’s actions, or by virtue of any act or omission of Sublessee or its employees, agents, licensees, contractors or invitees. Unless arising from the negligence or
willful misconduct of Sublessee, Sublessor shall indemnify, defend and save harmless Sublessee from and against any and all liabilities, claims, damages, losses, judgments, costs and expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees,
resulting from or arising in connection with Sublessor’s use or occupancy of the Premises or the building or the project of which it is a part, the presence or release of hazardous materials arising as a result of Sublessor’s actions, or
by virtue of any act or omission of Sublessor or its employees, agents, licensees, contractors or invitees. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Sublease to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 10 shall survive the termination of
this Sublease. 
 11. Alterations, Additions, and Improvements to Premises. Sublessee shall not erect any sign in or upon the
Premises or make any alteration, addition or improvement to the Premises except as permitted by, and on such terms and conditions as are set forth in, the Lease. 
 12. Insurance. Sublessee shall, at its own cost and expense, obtain and maintain during the term of this Sublease all of the insurance which is required under the Lease to be obtained and maintained by
Sublessor. Such insurance shall name Sublessor and Lessor as additional insureds, as their interests may appear. Sublessee shall provide Sublessor with written evidence of such insurance within ten (10) days from the Commencement Date.

 13. Default. The occurrence of any of the following events shall be deemed to be a “Event of Default” under this
Sublease: (a) any failure by Sublessee to pay any sum due hereunder within three (3) calendar days after written notice from Sublessor that such sums are past due; (b) any act or omission of Sublessee which would, upon notice and the
lapse of time, constitute a default or event of default under the Lease; (c) any failure by Sublessee to perform or comply with any other term, condition or covenant to be observed by Sublessee hereunder or as lessee under the Lease within
twenty-five (25) calendar days of notice thereof, or such longer period as may reasonably be required to effect such cure so long as Sublessee diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; (e) the filing by or against Sublessee of any
proceeding in bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, conservatorship or similar proceeding, or an assignment by Sublessee for the benefit of creditors. 
 14. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default: (a) Sublessor may terminate this Sublease by written notice to Sublessee,
whereupon this Sublease and the term 

  

 4 

 
hereunder shall be terminated and Sublessee shall immediately vacate the Premises; (b) Sublessor may reenter the Premises, with or without terminating
this Sublease in compliance with all applicable laws, and remove Sublessee and all persons, property, fixtures and chattels occupying or located within the Premises without liability to Sublessee for any damages or claims arising therefrom; and
(c) in the event of any termination of this Sublease or repossession of the Premises, Sublessee shall be liable for and shall pay to Sublessor the sum of all rent and other payments and fees due hereunder as of the date of such termination and,
to the extent permitted by law, an amount equal to all rent that would have become due and payable through the remaining term hereof, less the fair market value of the Premises for the same period, such total discounted to present value. The
foregoing rights and remedies shall be in addition to all other rights available to Sublessor at law or in equity. All rights and remedies of Sublessor herein created or otherwise existing at law or in equity are cumulative and may be exercised
concurrently, whenever and as often as deemed desirable by Sublessor. 
 15. Right to Cure Defaults. If Sublessee fails to pay
when due any rent, charge or other obligation to be paid by it pursuant to the terms hereof, or fails to perform any other covenant or condition contained herein or the Lease, then Sublessor, at its option, may do so and the amount so expended by
Sublessor, together with interest accruing at the Default Rate from the date of each such expenditure, shall become immediately due and payable to Sublessor as additional rent. If Sublessor fails to perform its obligations under the Lease after
notice and lapse of applicable cure period, to the extent not required to be performed by Sublessee under this Sublease, then Sublessee shall have the right to perform the same and Sublessor shall reimburse Sublessee for the costs thereof together
with interest at the Default Rate from the date such costs were incurred. 
 16. Electricity. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor,
together with Rent, $900.13 per month as a charge for electricity usage to the Premises. 
 17. Waiver of Subrogation. Anything
in this Sublease to the contrary notwithstanding, Sublessor and Sublessee each hereby waives any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or cause of action, against the other, its agents, officers, or employees, for any loss or damage that may
occur to the Premises or any improvements thereto, or any personal property of such party therein, by reason of fire, the elements, or any other cause which is normally insured against under the terms of standard fire and extended coverage insurance
policies regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of the other party hereto, its agents, officers or employees, and each covenants that no insurer shall hold any right of subrogation against such other party. 
 18. Condition of Premises. Sublessee hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Sublease, Sublessor has made
no representations or warranties with respect to the Premises or with respect to the suitability of same for the conduct of Sublessee’s business, and Sublessee accepts the same “as is”. Sublessee shall, on the last day of the term
hereof, or upon earlier termination hereof, peaceably and quietly surrender and deliver unto Sublessor the Premises in the condition required to be maintained under the Lease, reasonable wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty excepted.

 19. Furniture and Phone Systems. Sublessor hereby conveys to Sublessee for the amount of one dollar ($1.00) any and all
right, title and interest of Sublessor in and to the 

  

 5 

 
furniture and telephone systems located within the Premises. Sublessee acknowledges and agrees that Sublessor makes no warranties or representations of any
kind, whether as to merchantability or fitness or suitability thereof for Sublessee’s operations. Sublessor hereby represents and warrants to Sublessee that Sublessor is the sole owner of the furniture and telephone equipment free and clear of
any liens or encumbrances and Sublessor has the right to convey title to said furniture and equipment to Sublessee. Sublessee shall remove all such furniture and telephone systems, at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense, on or before the
expiration of the term of this Sublease, repairing any and all damage to the Premises caused thereby. If Sublessee fails to perform such removal, Sublessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove the same at Sublessee’s cost and
expense, which costs and expenses may be deducted by Sublessor from the security deposit. 
 20. Consent. If Sublessee desires
to take any action that would require the consent of Lessor under the Lease, including, without limitation any request to assign this Sublease or further sublease the Premises, Sublessee shall not undertake the same without the prior written consent
of Lessor and Sublessor, which consent shall be governed by the applicable provisions of the Lease. Sublessor may condition its consent on the consent of the Lessor and may require Sublessee to contact the Lessor directly for such consent.

 21. Right to Enter. All rights given to the Lessor and its agents and representatives by the Lease to enter the Premises
shall inure to the benefit of Sublessor and its agents and representatives. 
 22. Notices and Payment of Rent. Any payment of
rent, notice, exercise of option or election, communication, request or other documents or demand required or desired to be given to Sublessor or Sublessee shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally to an office or
officer of the other party to be served or notified or, if by certified or registered mail, three (3) business days following deposit of the same in the U.S. Mail, when addressed to the party to be notified as first set forth above, or at such
other address provided by said party in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 23. Amendments. No amendment to this Sublease
shall be valid or binding unless such amendment is in writing and executed by each of the parties hereto. 
 24. Security Deposit.
Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor prior to the Commencement Date a security deposit in the amount of $75,610, which sum shall be retained in an interest bearing account, which interest shall be included with the security deposit to be held or
released in accordance with this Section 24, as security for the Sublessee’s performance and observance of the covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed or observed by it hereunder. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred
under this Sublease, the security deposit shall be reduced by $12,601 (and returned to or credited to Sublessee) each month, beginning on July 1, 2006; provided, however, that the security deposit shall in no event be reduced to less than
$25,200. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Sublessor may use such security deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Rent or other payments due to Sublessor hereunder, and any actual damage, injury, expense or liability
caused thereby. Any remaining balance of said security deposit shall be returned to Sublessee upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease and the complete discharge of all of Sublessee’s obligations under this Sublease.

  

 6 

 25. Holding Over. Sublessee shall vacate the Premises at the expiration of the term of this
Sublease. In the event, however, that Sublessee should hold over after the expiration or termination of this Sublease, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor 150% of Base Rent otherwise due hereunder for the holdover period. No holding over by Sublessee
after the term of this Sublease shall be construed to extend the term hereof. Any holding over with the written consent of Sublessor shall constitute, unless otherwise stated, a lease from month to month. 
 26. Governing Law. The various provisions of this Sublease shall be construed under, and the respective rights and obligations of the
parties shall be determined with reference to, the laws of the State of New Jersey. 
 27. Successors and Assigns. The terms
and provisions of this Sublease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 
 28. Captions. The captions of the several sections of this Sublease are not a part of the context hereof and shall not be considered in construing or interpreting any provision of this Sublease. 
 29. Multiple Counterparts. This Sublease may be executed by one or more parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of
which shall be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
 30. Brokerage.
Each party hereto represents and warrants to the other that, except for CB Richard Ellis and Cushman and Wakefield whose fees shall be paid by Sublessor, there is no real estate broker or agent acting in this transaction at the request of or
otherwise on behalf of the party making the representation and warranty, or who may claim any commission or fee in connection herewith. Each party hereto hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims by
any other real estate broker or agent claiming a commission, fee or other form of compensation by virtue of having dealt with the indemnifying party with respect to this Sublease or any other matter relating to the Premises. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Sublease Agreement to be executed by their respective duly authorized officers as of the date
first above written.

 4. DELIVERY OF POSSESSION. 
 If for any reason
Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date, and such failure is not caused by an act or omission of Tenant, the Expiration Date shall be extended by the number of days the Commencement Date has been
delayed and the validity of this Lease shall not be impaired nor shall Landlord be subject to any liability for such failure; but Rent shall be abated until delivery of possession. Provided, however, if the Commencement Date has been delayed by an
act or omission of Tenant then Rent shall not be abated until delivery of possession and the Expiration Date shall not be extended. Delivery of possession shall be deemed to occur on the earlier of the date Landlord receives a Certificate of
Occupancy or upon substantial completion of Landlord’s Work in the Premises as set forth in Exhibit D, attached hereto (as certified by Landlord’s architect) and complete sign off of the building permit by the building inspector. As used
herein, Landlord shall be deemed to have substantially completed Landlord’s Work as set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto notwithstanding that minor or insubstantial details of construction, mechanical adjustment or decoration remain to be
performed in the Premises or any part thereof, the non-completion of which does not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises or the construction of Tenant’s Work. If Landlord permits Tenant to enter into possession of the
Premises before the Commencement Date, such possession shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, the payment of Rent (unless otherwise agreed in writing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided the same does
not unreasonably interfere with Landlord’s work, Landlord shall permit Tenant and its contractors reasonable access to’ the Premises approximately two weeks prior to the Commencement Date for the purpose of installing its communication
lines, equipment and furniture. Tenant’s early access is conditioned upon Tenant providing proof of insurance prior to access, and shall be further subject to all of the other terms and conditions of this Lease. 
 Within ten (10) days of delivery of possession Landlord shall deliver to Tenant and Tenant shall execute an Acceptance of Premises in which Tenant
shall certify, among other things, that (a) Landlord has satisfactorily completed Landlord’s Work to the Premises pursuant to Exhibit “D”, unless written exception is set forth thereon, and (h) that Tenant accepts the
Premises. Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver the Acceptance of Premises shall be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that Landlord has satisfactorily completed Landlord’s Work to the Premises pursuant to Exhibit “D”.

 In the event Tenant fails to take possession of the Premises following execution of this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord promptly
upon demand for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with entering into this Lease including, but not limited to, broker fees and commissions, sums paid for the preparation of a floor and/or space plan for the Premises, costs incurred in
performing Landlord’s Work pursuant to Exhibit “D”, loss of rental income, attorneys’ fees and costs, and any other damages for breach of this Lease established by Landlord.

 5. INTENDED USE OF THE PREMISES. 
 The statement in this Lease of the nature of the business to be conducted by Tenant in the Premises does not constitute a representation or guaranty by
the Landlord as to the present or future suitability of the Premises for the conduct of such business in the Premises, or that it is lawful or permissible under the Certificate of Occupancy issued for the Building, or is otherwise permitted by law.
Tenant’s taking possession of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence, as against Tenant, that, at the time such possession was taken, the Premises were satisfactory for Tenant’s intended use, subject to completion of any construction of
any construction punch list items. Punch list items are incidental, incomplete construction items which do not materially, adversely affect the conduct of the Tenant’s business at the Premises. Subject to force majeure, Landlord shall remedy
any punch list items with continuous diligence as soon as reasonably possible following the delivery of possession. Thereafter, any temporary certificate of occupancy shall be promptly converted to a final certificate of occupancy. 
 6. RENT. 
 6.1 Payment of
Rent. Tenant shall pay Rent for the Premises. Monthly Installments of Rent shall be payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month of the Term. If the Term begins (or ends) on other than the first (or last) day of a
calendar month, Rent for the partial month shall be prorated based on the number of days in that month. Rent shall be paid to Landlord at the Rent Payment Address set forth in Section 2.8., or to such other person at such place as Landlord may
from time to time designate in writing, without any prior demand therefor and without deduction or offset, in lawful money of the United States of America. Tenant shall pay Landlord the first Monthly Installment of Base Rent upon execution of this
Lease. 
 6.2 [Intentionally Deleted] 
 6.3 Additional Rent for Increases in Tax Costs and Operating Expenses. If, in any calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Landlord’s Tax Costs and Operating Expenses (as
hereinafter defined) for the Project (hereinafter sometimes together referred to as Direct Costs) shall be higher than in the Base Year specified in Section 2.3., Additional Rent for such Direct Costs payable hereunder shall be increased by an
amount equal to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the difference between Landlord’s actual Direct Costs for such calendar year and the actual Direct Costs of the Base Year. However, if during any calendar year of the Term the occupancy of
the Project is less than ninety-five percent (95%), then Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment of the variable components of Operating Expenses, as reasonably determined by Landlord, to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would
have been incurred had the Project been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during that calendar year. This estimated amount shall be deemed the amount of Operating Expenses for that calendar year. For purposes hereof, “variable
components” shall include only those Operating Expenses that are affected by variations in occupancy levels.

and/or materials paid and/or utilized by landlords of similar buildings within the local marketplace. 
 6.4 Determination and
Payment of Tax Costs and Operating Expenses. 
 6.4.1 On or before the last day of each December during the
Term of this Lease, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement showing in reasonable detail Landlord’s projected Direct Costs for the succeeding calendar year. If such statement of projected Direct Costs indicates the Direct Costs
will be higher than in the Base Year, then the Rent due from Tenant hereunder for the next succeeding year shall be increased by an amount equal to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the difference between the projected Direct Costs for the
calendar year and the Base Year. If during the course of the calendar year Landlord determines that actual Direct Costs’ will vary from its estimate by more than five percent (5%), Landlord may deliver to Tenant a written statement showing
Landlord’s, revised estimate of Direct Costs. On the next payment date for Monthly Installments of Rent following Tenant’s receipt of either such statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional amount equal to such monthly Rent
increase adjustment (as set forth on Landlord’s statement). Thereafter, the monthly Rent adjustment payments becoming due shall be in the amount set forth in such projected Rent adjustment statement from Landlord. Neither Landlord’s
failure to deliver nor late delivery of such statement shall constitute a default by Landlord or a waiver of Landlord’s right to any Rent adjustment provided for herein. 
 6.4.2 On or before the first day of each April during the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement of
reconciliation (the Reconciliation) showing in reasonable detail Landlord’s actual Direct Costs for the prior year, together with a full statement of any adjustments necessary to reconcile any sums paid as estimated Rent adjustments during the
prior year with those sums actually payable for such prior year. In the event such Reconciliation shows that additional sums are due from Tenant, Tenant shall pay such sums to Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Reconciliation.
In the event such Reconciliation shows that a credit is due Tenant, such credit shall be credited against the sums next becoming- due from Tenant, unless this Lease has expired or been terminated pursuant to the terms hereof (and all sums due
Landlord have been paid), in which event such sums shall be refunded to Tenant. Neither Landlord’s failure to deliver nor late delivery of such Reconciliation to Tenant by April first shall constitute a default by Landlord or operate as a
waiver of Landlord’s right to collect all Rent due hereunder. 
  

 8 

 6.4.3 So long as Tenant is not in default under the terms of the Lease and provided
Notice of Tenant’s request is given to Landlord within one hundred twenty (120) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Reconciliation, Tenant may inspect Landlord’s Reconciliation accounting records relating to Direct Costs at
Landlord’s corporate office, during normal business hours, for the purpose of verifying the charges contained in such statement. The audit must be completed within sixty (60) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Notice, unless
such period is extended by Landlord (in Landlord’s reasonable discretion). Before conducting any audit however, Tenant must pay in full the amount of Direct Costs billed. Tenant may only review those records that specifically relate to Direct
Costs. Tenant may not review any other leases or Landlord’s tax returns or financial statements. In conducting an audit, Tenant must utilize an independent certified public accountant experienced in auditing records related to commercial
property operations. The proposed accountant is subject to Landlord’s reasonable prior approval. The audit shall be conducted in accordance with generally accepted rules of auditing practices. Tenant may not conduct an audit more often than
once each calendar year. Tenant may audit records relating to a calendar year only one time. No audit shall cover a period of time other than the calendar year from which Landlord’s Reconciliation was generated. Upon receipt thereof, Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord a copy of the audit report and all accompanying data. Tenant and Tenant’s auditor shall keep confidential any agreements involving the rights provided in this section and the results of any audit conducted hereunder.
As a condition precedent to Tenant’s right to conduct an audit, Tenant’s auditor shall sign a confidentiality agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord. However, Tenant shall be permitted to furnish information to its
attorneys, accountants and auditors to the extent necessary to perform their respective services for Tenant. 
 6.4 Definition
of Rent. All costs and expenses other than Base Rent, that Tenant assumes or agrees or is obligated to pay to Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed Additional Rent (which, together with the Base Rent, is sometimes referred to as
Rent). 
 6.5 Taxes on Tenant’s Use and Occupancy. In addition to the Rent and any other charges to be paid
by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than net income taxes) which are not otherwise reimbursable under this Lease, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of the
parties, where such taxes are upon, measured by or reasonably attributable to (a) the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises, or the cost or value of any leasehold
improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, other than Building Standard Tenant Improvements made by Landlord, regardless of whether title to such improvements is held by Tenant or Landlord; (b) the gross or net Rent payable under
this Lease, including, without limitation, any rental or gross receipts tax levied by any taxing authority with respect to the receipt of the Rent hereunder; (c) the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair,
use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof; or (d) this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises. If it 
  

 9 

 
becomes unlawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for any costs as required under this Lease, the Base Rent shall be revised to net Landlord the same net
Rent after imposition of any tax or other charge upon Landlord as would have been payable to Landlord but for the reimbursement being unlawful. 
 7.
LATE CHARGES. 
 If Tenant fails to pay when due any Rent or other amounts or charges which Tenant is obligated to pay under the
terms of this Lease, then Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of each such installment if any such installment is not received by Landlord within five (5) days from the date it is due. Tenant acknowledges
that the late payment of any Rent will cause Landlord to lose the use of that money and incur costs and expenses not contemplated under this Lease including, without limitation, administrative costs and processing and accounting expenses, the exact
amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair compensation to Landlord for the loss suffered as a result of such late
payment by Tenant. However, the late charge is not intended to cover Landlord’s attorneys’ fees and costs relating to delinquent Rent. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to
such late payment by nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Landlord under this Lease. Late charges are deemed Additional Rent. 
 In no event shall this provision for the imposition of a late charge be deemed to grant to Tenant a grace period or an extension of time within which to pay any Rent due hereunder or prevent Landlord from exercising
any right or remedy available to Landlord upon Tenant’s failure to pay such Rent when due. 
 8. SECURITY DEPOSIT. 
 Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord a Security Deposit in the amount set forth in Section 2.18 as security for
Tenant’s performance of its obligations under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Security Deposit may be commingled with funds of Landlord and Landlord shall have no obligation or liability for payment of interest on such deposit.
Tenant shall not mortgage, assign, transfer or encumber the Security Deposit without the prior written consent of Landlord and any attempt by Tenant to do so shall be void, without force or effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord. 

If Tenant fails to timely pay any Rent or other amount due under this Lease, or fails to perform any of the terms hereof, Landlord may, following the
expiration of any applicable cure and grace periods at its option and without prejudice to any other remedy which Landlord may have, appropriate and apply or use all or any portion of the Security Deposit for Rent payments or any other amount then
due and unpaid, for payment of any amount for which .Landlord has become obligated as a result of Tenant’s default or breach, and for any loss or damage sustained by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s default or breach. If Landlord so uses
any of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within ten (10)

  

 10 

 
days after written demand therefor, restore the Security Deposit to the full amount originally deposited. Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute an
act of default hereunder and Landlord shall have the right to exercise any remedy provided for in Section 19 hereof. 
 If Tenant
materially defaults under this Lease more than two (2) times during any calendar year, irrespective of whether such default is cured, then, without limiting Landlord’s other rights and remedies, Landlord may, in Landlord’s sole
discretion, modify the amount of the required Security Deposit. Within ten (10) days after Notice of such modification, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the required additional sums, provided however, that in no event shall the Security Deposit
exceed the aggregate of six (6) months of the then existing Base Rent. Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute an act of default, and Landlord shall have the right to exercise any remedy provided for in Section 19 hereof.

 If Tenant complies with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, and Tenant is not in default on any of its obligations hereunder,
then within thirty (30) days after Tenant vacates the Premises, Landlord shall return to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to the last subtenant or assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) the Security Deposit less any expenditures
made by Landlord to repair damages to the Premises caused by Tenant and to clean the Premises upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations or requirements now in force or which may hereafter be imposed which shall by reason of Tenant’s Use or occupancy of the Premises, impose any duty upon Tenant or Landlord with

the necessity for compliance is triggered by Tenant’s Use, and Tenant shall make, at its sole cost and expense, any changes to the Premises required to accommodate Tenant’s employees with disabilities (any work performed pursuant to this
Section shall be subject to the terms of Section 12 hereof). The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission by Tenant in any action or proceeding against Tenant, whether Landlord is a party thereto or not, ‘that
Tenant has violated any such law, statute, ordinance, or governmental regulation, rule or requirement in the use or occupancy of the Premises, Building or Project shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Landlord hereby

all declarations, covenants, conditions, restrictions, laws, statutes, ordinances, and government rules, regulations or requirements now in force.

Tenant shall not install business machines or mechanical equipment which will in any manner cause noise objectionable to or injure other tenants in the Project. 
  

 12

Landlord, Tenant shall not create, generate, use, bring, allow, emit, dispose, or permit on the Premises, Building or Project any toxic or hazardous gaseous, liquid, or solid material or waste, or any other hazardous material defined or listed in
any applicable federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or ordinance. If Landlord grants its consent, Tenant shall comply with all applicable laws with respect to such hazardous material, including all laws affecting the use, storage and
disposal thereof. If the presence of any hazardous material brought to the Premises, Building or Project by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, agent or contractors results in contamination, Tenant shall promptly take all actions necessary, at

proposed remedial action and shall keep Landlord informed during the process of remediation. 
 Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold
Landlord harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or suffered by Landlord arising from Tenant bringing, allowing, using, permitting, generating, creating, emitting, or disposing of toxic or hazardous material whether or not
consent to same has been granted by Landlord. Tenant’s duty to defend, hold-harmless and indemnify Landlord hereunder shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. The consent requirement contained herein shall not apply to
ordinary office products that may contain de minimis quantities of hazardous material; however, Tenant’s indemnification obligations are not diminished with respect to the presence of such products. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has an
affirmative duty to immediately notify Landlord of any release or suspected release of hazardous material in the Premises or on or about the Project.

 Tenant shall pay to Landlord from and after the Commencement Date, as Additional Rent in accordance with Section 6.1., a sum to reimburse Landlord

from time to time during the Term hereof, Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Premises, and if Tenant is not then in default under the terms of the Lease, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a written request for
approval setting forth the terms and provisions of the proposed assignment or sublease, the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and a copy of the proposed form of assignment or sublease. Tenant’s request for consent shall be
submitted to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the intended date of such transfer. Tenant shall promptly supply Landlord with such information concerning the business background and financial condition of such proposed assignee or
subtenant as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall have the right to approve such proposed assignee or subtenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, continued or delayed In no event however, shall Landlord be required to
consent to any assignment or sublease (a) to an existing tenant in the Project or (b) that may violate any restrictions contained in any mortgage, lease or agreement affecting the Project. Landlord’s consent to any assignment shall
not be construed as a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting, transfer of partnership interest or stock, occupancy or use. 
 18.2.1 Landlord’s approval shall be conditioned, among other things, on Landlord’s receiving adequate assurances of future performance under this Lease and any sublease or assignment. In determining the adequacy of such
assurances, Landlord may base its decision on such factors as it deems reasonably appropriate, including but not limited to: 
 18.2.1.1 that the source of rent and other consideration due under this Lease, and, in the case of assignment, that the financial condition and operating performance and business experience of the proposed assignee and its guarantors, if
any, shall be equal to or greater than the financial condition and operating performance and experience of Tenant and its guarantors, if any, as of the time Tenant became the lessee under this Lease; 
 18.2.1.2 that any assumptions or assignment of this Lease will not result in increased cost or expense, wear and tear, greater traffic or
demand for services and utilities provided by Landlord pursuant to Section 10 hereof and will not disturb or be detrimental to other tenants of Landlord; 
  

 26 

 18.2.1.3 whether the proposed assignee’s use of the Premises will include the use of
Hazardous Material, or will in any way increase any risk to Landlord relating to Hazardous Material; and 
 18.2.2 The
assignment or sublease shall be on substantially the same terms and conditions set forth in the written request for approval given to Landlord, or, if different, upon terms and conditions consented to by Landlord; 
 18.2.3 No assignment or sublease shall be valid and no assignee or sublessee shall take possession of the Premises or any part thereof
until an executed counterpart of such assignment or sublease has been delivered to Landlord; 
 18.2.4 No assignee or
sublessee shall have a further right to assign or sublet except on the terms herein contained; 
 18.2.5 Any sums or other
economic considerations received by Tenant as a result of such assignment or subletting, however denominated under the assignment or sublease, which exceed, in the aggregate (a) the total sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under
this Lease (prorated to reflect obligations allocable to any portion of the Premises subleased), plus (b) any real estate brokerage commissions and the cost of reasonable tenant improvements, or fees payable to third parties in connection with
such assignment or subletting, shall be shared equally by Tenant and Landlord as Additional Rent under this Lease without effecting or reducing any other obligations of Tenant hereunder. 
 If Landlord consents to the proposed transfer, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord three (3) fully executed original documents (in the form previously
approved by Landlord) and Landlord shall attach its consent thereto. Landlord shall retain one (1) fully executed original document. No transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease shall be deemed effective until the terms and conditions of
this Section 18 have been fulfilled. 
 18.3 Tenant Remains Responsible. No subletting or assignment shall release
Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall
not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of default by an assignee or subtenant of Tenant or any
successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee, subtenant or successor. Landlord may consent to subsequent
assignments or sublets of the Lease or amendments or modifications to the Lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant, and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and any such actions shall not relieve
Tenant of liability under this Lease, provided, however in no event shall any such actions materially increase Tenant’s financial obligations or liabilities hereunder. 
  

 27 

 18.4 Payment of Fees. If Tenant assigns the Lease or sublets the Premises or
requests the consent of Landlord to any assignment, subletting or conversion to a limited liability entity, then Tenant shall, upon demand, pay Landlord, whether or not consent is ultimately given, an administrative fee of Three Hundred and 00/100
Dollars ($300.00) 
 19. DEFAULT. 
 19.1 Tenant’s Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default and breach of this Lease by Tenant. 
 19.1.1 If Tenant abandons the Premises. 
 19.1.2 If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or Additional Rent or any other charges required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease and such failure continues for three (3) days after receipt of Notice thereof from
Landlord to Tenant. 
 19.1.3 If Tenant fails to promptly and fully perform any other covenant, condition or agreement
contained in this Lease and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, if Tenant fails to commence to cure within that
thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute to completion. 
 19.1.4 Tenant’s failure to occupy the Premises
within thirty(30) days after delivery of possession (as defined in Section 4 hereof). 
 19.1.5 Tenant’s failure to
provide any document, instrument or assurance as required by Sections 12, 15, 18 and/or 35, if the failure continues for three (3) days after receipt of Notice from Landlord to Tenant. 
 19.1.6 To the extent provided by law: 
 19.1.6.1 If a Writ of attachment or execution is levied on this Lease or on substantially all of Tenant’s Property; or 
 19.1.6.2 If Tenant or Tenant’s Guarantor makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or 
 19.1.6.3 If Tenant files a voluntary petition for relief or if a petition against Tenant in a proceeding under the federal bankruptcy laws or other insolvency laws is filed and not withdrawn or dismissed within sixty
(60) days thereafter, or if under the provisions of any law providing for reorganization or winding up of corporations, any court of competent jurisdiction assumes jurisdiction, custody or control of Tenant or any substantial part of its
property and such jurisdiction, custody or control remains in force unrelinquished, unstayed or unterminated for a period of sixty (60) days; or 
 19.1.6.4 If in any proceeding or action in which Tenant is a party, a trustee, receiver, agent or custodian is appointed to take charge of the Premises or Tenant’s Property (or has the authority to do so) and
such trustee, receiver, agent or custodian is not removed within sixty (60) days thereafter; or 
  

 28 

 19.1.6.5 If Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one (1) person or
entity, if any partner of the partnership or other person or entity is involved in any of the acts or events described in Sections 19.1.6.1 through above. 
 19.2 Landlord Remedies. In the event of Tenant’s default hereunder, then, in addition to any other rights or remedies Landlord may have under any law or at equity, Landlord shall have the
right to collect interest on all past due sums (at the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by an individual), and, at Landlord’s option and without further notice or demand of any kind, to do the following: 
 19.2.1 Terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and reenter the Premises and take possession thereof,
and Tenant shall have no further claim to the Premises or under this Lease; or 
 19.2.2 Continue this Lease in effect,
reenter and occupy the Premises for the account of Tenant, and collect any unpaid Rent or other charges which have or thereafter become due and payable; or 
 19.2.3 Reenter the Premises under the provisions of Section 19.2.2., and thereafter elect to terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises. 
 If Landlord reenters the Premises under the provisions of Sections 19.2.2 or 19.2.3 above, Landlord shall, not be deemed to have terminated this Lease or
the obligation of Tenant to pay any Rent or other charges thereafter accruing unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of Landlord’s election to terminate this Lease. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises or the appointment of a
receiver on Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease. In the event of any reentry or retaking of possession by Landlord, Landlord
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove all or any part of Tenant’s Property in the Premises and to place such property in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of Tenant. If Landlord elects to relet the Premises
for the account of Tenant, the rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows: first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of such
reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations or repairs to the Premises; fourth to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the balance, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as it
becomes due. If that portion of Rent received from the reletting which is applied against the Rent due hereunder is less than the amount of the Rent due, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord promptly upon demand by Landlord. Such deficiency
shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as determined, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with such reletting or in making alterations and repairs to the Premises which are not covered
by the rent received from the reletting. 
  

 29 

 19.3 Damages Recoverable. Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease under the
provisions of Section 19.2, Landlord may recover as damages from Tenant the following: 
 19.3.1 Past Rent. The
worth at the time of the award of any unpaid Rent that had been earned at the time of termination including the value of any Rent that was abated during the Term of the Lease (except Rent that was abated as a result of damage or destruction or
condemnation); plus 
 19.3.2 Rent Prior to Award. The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid
Rent that would have been earned between the time of the termination and the time of the award exceeds the amount of unpaid Rent that Tenant proves could reasonably have been avoided; plus 
 19.3.3 Rent After Award. The worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of the unpaid Rent that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus 
 19.3.4
Proximately Caused Damages. Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely
to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), incurred by Landlord in (a) retaking possession of the Premises, (b) maintaining the Premises after Tenant’s default,
(c) preparing the Premises for reletting to a new tenant, including any repairs or alterations, and (d) reletting the Premises, including brokers’ commissions. 
 “The worth at the time of the award” as used in Sections 19.3.1 and 19.3.2 above, is to be computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate
permitted by law to be charged by an individual. “The worth at the time of the award” as used in Section 19.3.3 above, is to be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate five percent (5%). 
 19.4 Landlord’s Right to Cure Tenant’s Default. If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this
Lease and Tenant has not timely cured the default after Notice, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to), without waiving such default, perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant. Tenant shall pay Landlord all costs of such
performance immediately upon written demand therefor, and if paid at a later date these costs shall bear interest at the rate of twelve (12%) percent 
 19.5 Landlord’s Default. If Landlord fails to perform any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Lease within thirty (30) days after receipt of Notice from Tenant specifying
such default, or, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days if Landlord fails to commence to cure within that thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute to ‘completion, then Landlord shall be liable to
Tenant for any damages sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord’s breach; provided, however, it is 
  

 30 

 
expressly understood and agreed that if Tenant obtains a money judgment against Landlord resulting from any default or-other claim arising under this Lease,
that judgment shall be satisfied only out of the rents, issues, profits, proceeds and other income actually received on account of Landlord’s right, title and interest in the Premises, Building or Project, and no other real, personal or mixed
property of Landlord (or of any of the partners which comprise Landlord, if any), wherever situated, shall be subject to levy to satisfy such judgment. 
 19.6 Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to send by certified or registered mail to any first mortgagee or first deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord whose address has been furnished to Tenant, a
copy of any notice of default served by Tenant on Landlord. If Landlord fails to cure such default within the time provided for in this Lease, then such mortgagee or beneficiary shall have such additional time to cure the default as is reasonably
necessary under the circumstances. 
 19.7 Tenant’s Right to Cure Landlord’s Default. If, after Notice to
Landlord of default, Landlord (or any first mortgagee or first deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord) fails to cure the default as provided herein, then Tenant shall have the right to cure that default at Landlord’s expense. Tenant shall not
have the right to terminate this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any amount against any payments of Rent or any other charges due and payable under this Lease except as otherwise specifically provided herein. Tenant expressly waives the
benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord’s failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition
and repair. 
 20. WAIVER. 
 No
delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of either party upon any default by the other shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver of such default. The receipt and acceptance by one party of delinquent satisfaction
of any obligation hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any other default: it shall constitute only a waiver of timely satisfaction of the particular obligation involved (excluding the collection of a late charge or interest). 
 No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the acceptance of keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of
the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the Term. Only written acknowledgement from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of this Lease. 
 Landlord’s consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary Landlord’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Tenant. 
 Any waiver by either party of any default must be in
writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Lease. 
  

 31 

 21. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT. 
 This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases (including renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and
replacements thereof) which now exist or may hereafter be executed affecting the Building or the land upon which the Building is situated, or both, and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust in any amount or amounts whatsoever (including
renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof) now or hereafter placed on or against the Building or on or against Landlord’s interest or estate therein, or on or against any ground or underlying lease, without
the necessity of the execution and delivery of any further instruments on the part of Tenant to effectuate such subordination. Nevertheless, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon demand, without charge therefor, such further
instruments evidencing such subordination of this Lease to such ground or underlying leases, and to the lien of any such mortgages or deeds of trust as may be required by Landlord. 
 Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect that this Lease is senior to the lien
of its mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, whether this Lease is dated prior or subsequent to the date of said
mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, or the date of the recording thereof. 
 In the event of any foreclosure sale, transfer in lieu of
foreclosure or termination of the lease in which Landlord is lessee, Tenant shall attorn to the purchaser, transferee or lessor as the case may be, and recognize that party as Landlord under this Lease, provided such party acquires and accepts the
Premises subject to this lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to assist Tenant in obtaining a commercially reasonable SNDA from any current or future lender at no cost to Landlord.

 22.2 Failure to Execute. Tenant’s failure to execute and deliver such statement within the time required shall at
Landlord’s election be a default under this 
  

 32 

 
Lease and shall also be conclusive upon Tenant that: (a) this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been modified except as represented by
Landlord; (b) to Tenant’s knowledge, there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance and that Tenant has no right of offset, counter-claim or deduction against Rent and (c) not more than one month’s Rent has been

Notice to the other designate another place for receipt of future Notice. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, when an applicable State statute requires service of Notice in a particular manner, service of that Notice in
accordance with those particular requirements shall replace rather than supplement any Notice requirement set forth in the Lease. 
 24. TRANSFER OF
LANDLORD’S INTEREST. 
 In the event of any sale or transfer by Landlord of the Premises, Building or Project, and assignment of
this Lease by Landlord, Landlord shall be and is hereby entirely freed and relieved of any and all liability and obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission relating to the Premises, Building,
Project or Lease occurring after the consummation of such sale or transfer, provided the purchaser shall expressly assume all of the covenants and obligations of Landlord under this Lease. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant
agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee provided all of Landlords obligations hereunder are assumed by such transferee. If any security deposit or prepaid Rent has been paid by Tenant, Landlord shall transfer the security deposit or prepaid
Rent to Landlord’s successor and upon such transfer, Landlord shall be relieved of any and all further liability with respect thereto.

comply with (and cause its agents, contractors, employees and invitees to comply with) the rules and regulations attached hereto as Exhibit “E” and with such reasonable modifications thereof and additions thereto as Landlord may from time

the plans, specifications or designs related thereto, the contractor or subcontractor, or the work performed hereunder, shall not be deemed a warranty as to the adequacy thereof, and Landlord hereby disclaims any responsibility or liability for the
same. Landlord disclaims all responsibility for the condition or utility of the intra-building cabling network (ICN) and makes no representation regarding the suitability of the ICN for Tenant’s intended use. 
 35.2 Tenant’s Obligations. If at any time the point of demarcation for Tenant’s telecommunications equipment in
Tenant’s telephone equipment room or other location is relocated to some other point, whether by operation of law or otherwise, upon Landlord’s election, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense and cost: (1) within thirty
