Energy Corporation

 Oklahoma
City, OK 73134 
 To Whom It May Concern: 
 Each of the funds,
entities or accounts listed on Exhibits A, B and C hereto (collectively, the “Funds”), is sponsored or managed on a discretionary basis by either Putnam Investment Management, LLC (“PIM”), The Putnam Advisory Company, LLC
(“PAC”), or Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company (“PFTC”) and holds common stock (“Shares”) of Gulfport Energy Corporation (the “Company”). In addition, each of the funds, entities or accounts listed on Exhibit D
hereto is managed on a discretionary basis by either PIM or PAC (collectively, “Non-Waiving Investors”) and holds Shares, and other funds, entities or accounts sponsored or managed on a discretionary basis by PIM, PAC, PFTC or Putnam
Investments Limited (“PIL”) and officers, directors, and/or employees of PIM, PAC, PFTC or PIL (collectively, “Other Putnam Investors”) may own or acquire securities issued by the Company from time to time. 

In the event that Shares of the Company, together with any other securities issued by the Company that constitute “voting securities” (as defined
below) (the “Company Voting Securities”), confer “voting rights” (as defined below) (the “Company Voting Rights”), in each case exercisable by the Funds and any Non-Waiving Investors or Other Putnam Investors,
exceeding, in the aggregate, 4.99% of the total voting rights exercisable by holders of outstanding Company Voting Securities (the portion of Company Voting Securities held by the Funds, Non-Waiving Investors and Other Putnam Investors that confer
Company Voting Rights exceeding 4.99% of all voting rights exercisable by holders of outstanding Company Voting Securities being referred to as the “Excess Voting Securities”), the Funds, and PIM, PAC and PFTC (on behalf of each Other
Putnam Investor) agree to forego and to waive any and all voting rights they may have in respect of the Excess Voting Securities and any additional Company Voting Securities (“Additional Voting Securities”) so that the Company Voting
Rights exercisable by the Funds, Non-Waiving Investors and Other Putnam Investors in the aggregate do not confer voting rights exceeding 4.99% of total voting rights exercisable by all holders of outstanding Company Voting Securities after
subtracting from such total voting rights, in the calculation of the total number of Company Voting Rights deemed to be outstanding, all Company Voting Rights exercisable by Excess Voting Securities, Additional Voting Securities and any other
Company Voting Securities held by other securityholders of the Company who have waived any or all voting rights. (In respect of PIM, PAC and PFTC’s agreement on behalf of Other Putnam Investors, PIM, PAC and PFTC has or will obtain authority
from each such Other Putnam Investor to agree to the foregoing waiver on behalf of the Other Putnam Investor.) The voting rights so foregone and waived will be apportioned among the Funds and Other Putnam Investors on a pro rata basis based
upon their relative Share holdings in the Company at the time of the exercise of any vote. For purposes of this agreement, “voting rights” are rights to vote for the 

 
election or removal of the Company’s directors, or rights deemed to be equivalent to the right to vote for the election or removal of a director, under applicable interpretations of the term
“voting security” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff. 
 This agreement
to forego and waive voting rights is irrevocable with respect to the Funds and any Other Putnam Investor that is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is irrevocable with respect to the Funds and
Other Putnam Investors until such time as the Funds and any Other Putnam Investor that is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, is no longer an owner of any Shares in the Company, at which time this
agreement will expire and the remaining Funds and Other Putnam Investors will be entitled to exercise any and all voting rights pertaining to their Company Voting Securities. It is the intention of the undersigned that this letter be interpreted
broadly to effect the desire that the Excess Shares and Additional Shares be identical to that of a separate non-voting class. 
 A copy of the Agreement
and Declaration of Trust of each of the Putnam Funds is on file with the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and notice is hereby given that this instrument is executed on behalf of the Trustees of each Putnam Fund as Trustees and not
individually and that the obligations of this instrument are not binding on any of the Trustees or officers or shareholders individually, but are binding only on the assets or property of each Putnam Fund with respect to its obligations hereunder.
Furthermore, notice is given that the assets and liabilities of each series of each Putnam Fund that is a series company are separate and distinct and that the obligations of or arising out of this instrument are several and not joint and are
binding only on the assets or property of each series with respect to its obligations hereunder. In addition, although multiple Putnam Funds may be party hereto, each Putnam Fund is entering into this instrument individually (and not jointly or
jointly and severally) and is not liable for any matter relating to any other Putnam Fund.

 Exhibit 10.1 

TRIPLE NET OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT 

THIS TRIPLE NET OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT (this “Lease”) is made and entered into on this 11th day of June, 2015, by and between
COLUMBIA AVENUE PARTNERS, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company, (“Landlord”), and FRANKLIN SYNERGY BANK, a Tennessee banking corporation (“Tenant”). 

1. Leased Premises. 
 a.
Subject to and upon the terms hereinafter set forth, and in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and the mutual covenants set forth herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord does hereby lease and
demise to Tenant, and Tenant does hereby lease and take from Landlord, that certain improved real property municipally known as 120 9th Avenue South located in Franklin, Williamson County,
Tennessee, consisting of 16,785 rentable square feet and more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Premises”). 

b. Tenant’s taking possession of the Premises or any portion thereof shall be conclusive evidence against Tenant that such portion of the
Premises was then in good order and satisfactory condition, subject to any “punch list” items identified in writing from Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days following completion of Landlord’s Work (defined below), and
further subject to any latent defects in Landlord’s Work of which Tenant notifies Landlord in writing within one (1) year from the completion of Landlord’s Work. Except to the extent expressly set forth in this Lease, Tenant
acknowledges that no promise by or on behalf of Landlord, any of Landlord’s beneficiaries, or any of their respective agents, partners or employees to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or clean the Premises has been made to or relied
upon by Tenant, and that no representation respecting the condition of the Premises by or on behalf of Landlord, any of Landlord’s beneficiaries, or any of their respective agents, partners or employees has been made to or relied upon by
Tenant. 
 2. Term. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, or in any exhibit hereto, the term (together with
any extensions or renewals thereof, the “Term”) of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date (defined below) and shall expire one hundred eighty months (180) after the Commencement Date. “Commencement Date” shall
mean the date Tenant begins its business operations in the Premises but in no event later than 30 days after Landlord completes Landlord’s Work and delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant by Landlord giving Tenant written notice. For
purposes of clarification, immaterial “punch list” items identified by Tenant pursuant to Section 1(b) shall not affect the Commencement Date, unless they materially and adversely affect Tenant’s ability to (i) operate its
business in the Premises or (ii) complete Tenant’s build out of the Premises. The Commencement Date shall be set forth in a Commencement Agreement, identical in the form to that attached hereto as Exhibit B and executed by Landlord
and Tenant.  
 3. Use. The Premises are to be used and occupied solely for the purpose of providing banking and financial
services and office space and for any other lawful use, but for no unlawful purpose. Tenant shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, immoral, disreputable or objectionable purpose, and Tenant shall not cause, maintain or
permit any nuisance 

  
 1 

 
or waste in, on or about the Premises. Without limitation of the foregoing, in no event shall Tenant use or permit the use of all or any portion of the Premises (i) as and/or for sleeping
quarters and/or lodging or (ii) for any unlawful purpose of any kind whatsoever and howsoever arising. 
 4. Rent. 

a. Commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter throughout the full Term of this Lease, Tenant hereby agrees to pay the
annual Base Rental (defined and set forth below) and Additional Rental (defined below). The Base Rental shall be due and payable in advance in twelve equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month at Landlord’s address
as provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Landlord from time to time). If the Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month or if this Lease expires on other than the last day of a calendar month, then the
installments of Base Rental for such month or months shall be prorated. 
 “Base Rental” shall mean the amount of rent due to
Landlord per square foot for the first year of the Term as set forth in the Base Rental Agreement by and between Landlord and Tenant, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to be executed and delivered to Landlord before the Commencement
Date; provided, however, that Base Rental for the first year of Term shall be $33.25 per square foot for the Premises. 
  

													
	 Year
	  	Per Square Foot	 	  	Total Per Annum	 	  	Total Per Month	 
	1	  	$	33.25	  	  	$	558,101.40	  	  	$	46,508.45	  

 Following the first year of the Term, Base Rental shall increase on each anniversary of the Commencement Date
as set forth herein. Effective on each Adjustment Date (defined below), Base Rental shall be increased (relative to the previous year’s Base Rental) by the percentage increase, if any, in the CPI (defined below); provided, however, that each
annual increase in Base Rental shall not be less than 1.5% of the previous year’s annual Base Rental and not more than 3.5% of the previous year’s annual Base Rental. “Adjustment Date” shall mean, as the case may require, each
anniversary of the Commencement Date; provided, however, if the Commencement Date is other than the first day of the month, then “Adjustment Date” shall mean, as the case may require, the first day of the first month occurring after each
anniversary of the Commencement Date. As used herein, “CPI” shall mean the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers – South Urban Area, All Items, U.S.A. Area, 1982-1984 = 100, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
United States Department of Labor (U.S. City Average). If such index is discontinued, CPI shall then mean the most nearly comparable index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or other official agency of the United States Government as
determined by Landlord. 
 b. All sums other than Base Rental due Landlord under this Lease (including, without limitation, amounts
reimbursed to Landlord or for which Tenant must indemnify Landlord, late fees, and attorney fees and costs) shall be additional rental (“Additional Rental”). Base Rental and Additional Rental collectively are referred to as
“Rental” or “Rent”. 
 c. Tenant hereby agrees to pay to Landlord first month’s Base Rental on the day this Lease
is executed by Tenant. 

  
 2 

 5. Renewal Options. 

a. Tenant shall have the right and option to renew the Lease (“Renewal Option”) for two (2) successive renewal periods of five
(5) years each (each, an “Option Term”); provided, however, the Renewal Option is contingent upon the following: (i) there is not an Event of Default beyond all applicable cure period(s) at the time Tenant gives Landlord notice
of Tenant’s intention to exercise the Renewal Option or at the expiration of the current Term; (ii) no event has occurred that upon notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default, unless Landlord has given notice of
default and Tenant is diligently attempting to cure such event; and (iii) Tenant is occupying the Premises. Following expiration of the final Option Term allowable hereunder, Tenant shall have no further right to renew the Lease pursuant to
this Section 5. 
 b. Tenant shall exercise the Renewal Option by giving Landlord notice at least one hundred eighty (180) days
prior to the expiration of the current Term. If Tenant fails to give notice to Landlord prior to the 180-day period, then Tenant shall forfeit the Renewal Option. If Tenant exercises the Renewal Option, then during the Option Term, Landlord and
Tenant’s respective rights, duties and obligations shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Lease, except as provided otherwise in this Section. Time is of the essence in exercising the Renewal Option. 

c. The Base Rental for an Option Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate. “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the market rental
rate for the time period such determination is being made for office space in same class office buildings in the area of Franklin, Tennessee (the “Area”) of comparable condition for space of equivalent quality, size, utility, and location.
Such determination shall take into account all relevant factors, including, without limitation, the following matters: the credit standing of Tenant; the length of the term; the fact that Landlord will experience no vacancy period and that Tenant
will not suffer the costs and business interruption associated with moving its offices and negotiating a new lease; construction allowances and other tenant concessions that would be available to tenants comparable to Tenant in the Area (such as
moving expense allowance, free rent periods, and lease assumptions and take over provisions, if any, but specifically excluding the value of improvements installed in the Premises at Tenant’s cost), and whether adjustments are then being made
in determining the rental rates for renewals in the Area because of concessions being offered by Landlord to Tenant (or the lack thereof for the Option Term in question). For purposes of such calculation, it will only be assumed that Landlord is
paying a representative of Tenant a brokerage commission in connection with the Option Term in question if Landlord is in fact paying a brokerage commission to a representative of Tenant in connection with the applicable Option Term. The Fair Market
Rental Rate to be used for the Base Rental for the Option Term shall be determined no less than two hundred ten (210) days prior to the expiration of the Current Term. 

6. Utilities and Service. Tenant shall pay, when due, all charges for gas, water, electricity and any and all other utility services
used upon the Premises during the Term and any holdover period, including, without limitation, all tap, connection and/or meter fees and deposits. 

7. Security Deposit. Tenant hereby agrees to pay to Landlord a security deposit of forty-six thousand five hundred eight dollars and
forty-five cents ($46,508.45), which is equal to first month’s Base Rental, on the day this Lease is executed by Tenant (the “Security Deposit”). 

  
 3 

 
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any
arrears of Base Rental or Additional Rental or any other payment obligation hereunder, including, but not limited to, the cost of any damage, injury, expense, or liability caused by any Event of Default by Tenant hereunder. Any remaining balance of
the Security Deposit shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant within a reasonable period of time after the termination or expiration of this Lease and the satisfaction of Tenant’s obligations hereunder. The Security Deposit shall not be
considered an advance payment of rental or a measure of Landlord’s damages in case of default by Tenant. Tenant shall not be entitled to receive and shall not receive any interest on the Security Deposit, and Landlord may commingle the same
with other monies of Landlord. In the event Landlord applies the Security Deposit or any portion thereof to the payment of any sum described above and this Lease is not terminated, Tenant shall immediately deposit with Landlord an amount of money
equal to the amount so applied, and such amount shall be deemed to be part of the Security Deposit. In the event of a sale or transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Landlord shall transfer the Security Deposit to the purchaser or
lessor, as the case may be, and upon any such transfer and acknowledgement of receipt of Security Deposit by such transferee, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability to Tenant for the return of the Security Deposit, and Tenant shall look solely
to the new owner or lessor for the return of the Security Deposit. 
 8. Keys and Locks. Landlord shall furnish Tenant with two
(2) keys for each standard lockset on code required doors entering the Premises from public areas. Additional keys will be Tenant’s responsibility and at Tenant’s expense. All such keys shall remain the property of Landlord. Upon
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord all keys to any locks on doors entering or within the Premises, and give to Landlord the explanation of the combination of all locks for safes, safe cabinets and vault doors, if any, in
the Premises. 
 9. Parking. Landlord shall provide approximately 160 parking spaces on the Premises for Tenant’s use. 

10. Entry for Repairs and Inspection. Tenant shall permit Landlord and its contractors, agents or representatives to enter into and
upon any part of the Premises during reasonable hours to inspect the same; perform maintenance and make repairs, replacements or improvements as set forth under this Lease; and, upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, for the purpose of showing the
Premises to prospective tenants or purchasers. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts not to interfere materially with the operation of Tenant’s business during any such entry. 

11. Laws and Regulations; Encumbrances. Tenant shall comply with, and Tenant shall cause its employees, contractors and agents to
comply with, and shall use its best efforts to cause its visitors and invitees to comply with the following, to the extent Tenant has been made aware thereof: (i) all laws, ordinances, orders, rules and regulations of all state, federal,
municipal and other governmental or judicial agencies or bodies relating to the use, condition or occupancy of the Premises; and (ii) all recorded easements, operating agreements, parking agreements, declarations, covenants and instruments
benefiting or encumbering the Premises as of the Commencement Date, and such matters shall not be modified, amended, augmented or expanded by Landlord during the Term hereof with respect to the Premises without Tenant’s prior written consent
(and which consent 

  
 4 

 
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Tenant so long as any such proposed modification, amendment, augmentation or expansion of the Permitted Exceptions does not
materially interfere with Tenant’s rights, privileges and uses with respect to the Premises under this Lease). Copies of all documents described above must be provided to Tenant by Landlord upon Landlord receiving written request from Tenant
for the specific documents. Landlord warrants that to Landlord’s knowledge, no such ordinances or other matters of record prohibit Tenant’s use of the Premises as a branch banking facility. 

12. Hazardous Substances. Tenant shall comply, at its sole cost and expense, with all laws, ordinances, orders, rules and regulations
of all state, federal, municipal and other governmental or judicial agencies or bodies relating to the protection of public health, safety, welfare or the environment (collectively, “Environmental Laws”) in the use, occupancy and operation
of the Premises. Tenant agrees that no Hazardous Substances (defined below) shall be used, located, stored or processed on the Premises by Tenant or any of its agents, employees, contractors, assigns, subtenants, guest or invitees, and no Hazardous
Substances will be released or discharged from the Premises. The term “Hazardous Substances” shall mean and include all hazardous and toxic substances, waste or materials, any pollutant or contaminant, including, without limitation,
PCB’s, asbestos and raw materials that include hazardous constituents or any other similar substances or materials that are now or hereafter included under or regulated by any Environmental Laws or that would pose a health, safety or
environmental hazard. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all losses, liabilities (including, but not limited to, strict liability), damages, injuries, expenses (including, but not limited
to, court costs, litigation expenses, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of settlement or judgment), suits and claims of any and every kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, Landlord by any person, entity or
governmental agency for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of, the presence in or the escape, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or release from the Premises of any Hazardous Substances by Tenant or any of its agents, employees,
contractors, assigns, subtenants, guest or invitees. Tenant shall not be responsible for any Hazardous Substances located on the Premises prior to the date Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant. 

13. Taxes and Assessments. During the Term: 

a. Tenant shall pay all taxes, license fees, and special charges and assessments levied by any taxing authorities against personal property
which Tenant owns and/or uses within, upon, or about the Premises, or by reason of the conduct and operation of its business thereon, including, without limitation, any special assessments or charges for water and/or sewers. 

b. Tenant shall also pay any and all ad valorem real estate taxes on the Premises and any personal property taxes assessable on any personal
property located on the Premises on or before the same are due to the taxing authority. Landlord shall forward all ad valorem tax bills for the Premises to Tenant immediately upon receipt. Landlord shall have the right to pay such taxes before they
become delinquent if Tenant has not paid as required under this Lease, and such payment on Tenant’s behalf shall be immediately payable to Landlord by Tenant as Additional Rental. 

c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no obligation under this Lease to pay: (i) income, profits, intangible, documentary
stamps, franchise, corporate, capital stock, 

  
 5 

 
succession, estate, gift or inheritance taxes; (ii) any assessment or additional tax associated with a change in ownership of the Premises; or (iii) governmentally imposed “impact
fees” related to further improvement of the Premises, including, but not limited to, the widening of exterior roads, the installation of or connection to sewer lines, sanitary and storm drainage systems and other utility lines and
installations. 
 d. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all taxes (on personal property and real property), licenses fees, special
charges and assessments paid for by Landlord on Tenant’s behalf, and Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all costs and expenses (including attorney fees) in connection with same. Amounts due Landlord hereunder shall be Additional Rental.

 e. Tenant may at its sole cost and expense, and in its own name and/or in the name of Landlord, dispute and contest any of the
above-described taxes, license fees, special charges, assessments and/or ad valorem real estate taxes by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith, but only after Tenant has deposited with Landlord or with an applicable competent
authority, in Tenant’s reasonable discretion, the amount so contested and unpaid which shall be held by Landlord (if Landlord is so chosen to hold such deposited funds) in an interest-bearing account until the termination of the proceedings, at
which time the amount deposited shall be applied by Landlord toward the payment of the items held valid (plus any court costs, interest, penalties and other liabilities associated with the proceedings), and Tenant’s share of any excess shall be
returned to Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord from and against any cost, damage or expense, including attorney’s fees, actually and reasonably incurred by Landlord, as Additional Rental, in connection with any
such proceedings. 
 14. Leasehold Improvements. 

a. Following completion of Landlord’s Work (defined in Exhibit C hereto) and Tenant’s acceptance of the Premises from
Landlord, subject to the “punch list” items and latent defects identified in accordance with Section 1(b) above, Tenant accepts the same “AS IS” without any agreements, representations, understandings or obligations on the
part of Landlord to perform any alterations, repairs or improvements except as expressly set forth in this Lease. ADDITIONALLY, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS LEASE (INCLUDING ALL EXHIBITS), LANDLORD MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
WITH RESPECT TO THE LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS OR TO LANDLORD’S WORK, AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PREMISES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THOSE OF SUITABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY NEGATED AND
WAIVED. 
 b. Tenant shall be entitled to a Tenant Improvement Allowance (defined and set forth in Exhibit C). Notwithstanding the
Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant agrees that it will make no exterior or structural alterations or additions to the Premises nor post or attach or affix to the exterior of the Premises, any signs, air conditioners or other objects without
memorializing such proposed alterations, attachments, or fixtures in a Tenant work letter (in form acceptable to Landlord) and obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent to same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to
make interior, non-structural alterations to the Premises without Landlord’s consent, so long as such alterations do not (i) affect the structure or electrical, plumbing, or mechanical 

  
 6 

 
systems of the Premises; or (ii) decrease the value of the Premises. Except as may be covered by Tenant’s Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of such
alterations or signs. Tenant shall have the right to install its trade fixtures and equipment in, upon and about the Premises; provided, however, that Tenant shall remove the same on or before the expiration of this Lease, and if so requested by
Landlord, promptly after any termination of this Lease; and provided, further, that Tenant shall promptly thereafter repair all damage caused to the Premises by reason of such installation or removal. 

c. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of suit),
losses, liabilities, or causes of action arising out of or relating to any alterations, additions or improvements made by Tenant to the Premises, including, but not limited to, work not completed in a workmanlike manner and any contractor’s,
mechanics’ or materialman’s liens asserted in connection therewith. This indemnification obligation shall survive the Term of this Lease. 

d. Should any contractor’s, mechanic’s or other liens be filed against any portion of the Premises by reason of Tenant’s acts
or omissions or because of a claim against Tenant, Tenant shall cause the same to be canceled or discharged of record by bond or otherwise within thirty (30) days after notice by Landlord. If Tenant shall fail to cancel or discharge said lien
or liens, within said thirty (30) day period, Landlord may, at its sole option, cancel or discharge the same and upon Landlord’s demand, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all reasonable costs incurred in canceling or discharging
such liens, including attorney fees in connection with same. 
 15. Maintenance and Repairs to the Premises. Following the
Commencement Date, but subject to any “punch list” items, latent defects, or other defects expressly covered by any warranty under this Lease, Tenant shall make and pay for any and all repairs or replacements to any and all portions of the
interior and exterior of the Premises which are necessary to keep the same in a good state of repair or condition, such as, but not limited to, the roof and all structural members of the building, all fixtures, furnishings, lighting, air
conditioning, plumbing, heating, electrical, floors, walls, ventilation systems, and any and all other parts of the building or other portions of the Premises. Tenant shall also maintain the parking lot, landscaping, plantings, and the exterior of
the Premises in a good and neat condition at all times, and Tenant shall perform all maintenance, repairs, replacements and improvements required by any governmental law, ordination, rule or regulation. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the
contrary, Tenant shall not be required to construct or install any item that is capital in nature, unless the need for such installation or construction is caused by Tenant’s negligence or willful misconduct. Except for capital repairs and
replacements necessitated by Tenant’s negligence or willful misconduct, upon notification from Tenant, Landlord shall promptly undertake, construct, install and complete all necessary capital repairs and replacements in and about the Premises.
Without limiting Tenant’s maintenance and repair obligations hereunder, in the event Tenant fails to commence, within ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, or to diligently complete, any maintenance, repairs,
replacements or improvements necessitated by Tenant’s negligence or willful conduct, or necessitated by Tenant’s waste of the Premises, Landlord may, at its option, perform any such maintenance, repairs, replacements or improvements deemed
necessary by Landlord, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand Landlord’s cost thereof, plus an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) of such costs as 

  
 7 

 
Additional Rental. As used in this Section 15, any requirement to maintain the Premises in a “good state of repair or condition” shall mean maintenance of the Premises in as good a
condition as existed upon the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty and condemnation excepted. 
 16.
Condemnation. If all or substantially all of the Premises, or such portion of the Premises as would render, in Landlord’s or Tenant’s reasonable judgment, the continuance of Tenant’s business from the Premises impracticable,
shall be permanently taken or condemned for any public purpose, then Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease. If less than all or substantially all of the Premises shall be taken, then Landlord or Tenant shall have the option of terminating this
Lease by written notice to the other within ten (10) days following the date of such condemnation or taking. If this Lease is terminated as provided above, this Lease shall cease and expire as of the date of the taking. In the event that this
Lease is not terminated and a portion of the Premises is taken, Tenant shall pay the Base Rental and Additional Rental up to the date of the taking, and this Lease shall thereupon cease and terminate with respect to the portion of the Premises so
taken. Thereafter the Base Rental and Additional Rental shall be adjusted on an equitable basis. If this Lease is not terminated, Landlord shall promptly repair the Premises’ building to an architectural unit, fit for Tenant’s occupancy
and business; provided, however, that Landlord’s obligation to repair hereunder shall be limited to the extent of the net proceeds from such taking made available to Landlord for such repair. However, in the event such proceeds are not
sufficient to restore the Premises to a condition reasonably suitable for the operation of Tenant’s business, Tenant may terminate this Lease, at the time Landlord notifies Tenant of the extent to which the Premises will be restored. In the
event of any temporary taking or condemnation for any public purpose of the Premises or any portion thereof, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect except that Base Rental and Additional Rental shall be adjusted on an equitable basis for
the period of such taking, and Landlord shall be under no obligation to make any repairs or alterations. In the event of any taking of the Premises, Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord the value of all or any portion of the unexpired term of the Lease
and all leasehold improvements, and Tenant shall not assert a claim for a condemnation award therefor; provided, however, Tenant may pursue a separate award from the condemning authority for (a) relocation and moving expenses, and
(b) compensation for loss of Tenant’s business. 
 17. Fire or Casualty. If the building or any improvement on the Premises
shall be damaged in any way, in whole or in part, or rendered untenantable by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 17, restore the Premises to its original condition. With respect to damage
or destruction of Premises improvements, which damage or destruction is covered, in whole or in part, by insurance as required to be carried by Landlord under Section 18(b) hereof, it is agreed that the proceeds from such insurance which are
payable or paid to Landlord (or its lender) shall in all events be used and applied (and Landlord shall cause any secured lender as to the Premises to make such proceeds available for use and applicability) exclusively for the purpose of making
replacements or repairs, if and only if such proceeds are sufficient in amount to complete such necessary replacements or repairs and if the amount of such damage or destruction is less than 40% of the usable structure. If, however, the proceeds are
insufficient to cover the damage or destruction, or if the damage or destruction to the Premises impacts more than 40% of the usable structure, either the Landlord or the Tenant may, without waiving any other rights or privileges under this Lease,
terminate this Lease upon written notice to 

  
 8 

 
the other within sixty (60) days following the date of the subject casualty event. If neither party elects to terminate this Lease as herein provided, Landlord shall promptly reconstruct the
Premises to at least the condition as such existed immediately prior to the casualty event; provided, that if such reconstruction is not or cannot be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days of the subject casualty event, Tenant may
nonetheless elect to terminate this Lease upon written notice to the Landlord. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event that a casualty event occurs during the last two (2) years of the initial Term, or
any Renewal Term, as to any portion of the Premises and the damage resulting therefrom is of such an extent that it cannot be repaired or restored within sixty (60) days from the date of such casualty event, either party may terminate this
Lease upon written notice to the other. Rent shall not abate or be reduced following any casualty loss or during any period of restoration. It shall be Tenant’s responsibility to obtain business interruption insurance coverage to insure against
any loss Tenant may suffer as a result of any casualty damage to the Premises as well as Tenant’s inability to use all or any part of the Premises as a result of such casualty. 

18. Insurance. 
 a.
Liability Insurance. Tenant shall, during the entire term hereof keep in full force and effect a policy or policies of public liability, personal and property damage insurance with respect to the Premises, in which the limits shall be not
less than $2,000,000 in the aggregate, and $1,000,000 per occurrence. Such amounts shall be increased every three (3) years based on any increase in the Consumer Price Index-All Urban during such 3-year period. The policies shall name Landlord
and any lender of Landlord as an additional insured, and shall contain a clause that the insurer will not cancel or change the insurance without first giving all additional insureds thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. The insurance
shall be with an insurance company licensed to do business in Tennessee, and a copy of the policy, or a certificate of insurance together with proof of premium payment, shall be delivered to Landlord initially and at each renewal hereof. 

b. Fire and Casualty Insurance. Landlord agrees to keep in full force and effect a policy or policies or broad form, all risk coverage
insurance, in amounts not less than eighty percent (80%) of the reasonable reproduction or replacement value of the Premises improvements (including all buildings and structures thereon, and all portions thereof), determined annually, and with
no reduction for depreciation, use, wear and tear. Landlord shall obtain at least three (3) separate bids for such insurance (which bids shall be for the same coverage and on comparable terms and conditions), and the least expensive policy
shall be selected. With respect to damage or destruction of Premises improvements, which damage or destruction is covered, in whole or in part, by insurance, it is agreed that the proceeds from such insurance which are paid to Landlord shall be used
and applied exclusively for the purpose of making replacements or repairs, if and only if such proceeds are sufficient in amount to complete such necessary replacements or repairs, which are paid to Landlord are insufficient therefor, Landlord will
provide the deficiency, it being the intent of the parties hereto that Landlord shall have the obligation to rebuild, reconstruct or replace the Premises improvements damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty with improvements of equal value,
whether such casualty shall be insured or not insured against, and whether the proceeds of any such insurance are paid to Landlord. The insurance shall be with a good and A-rated insurance company licensed to do business in Tennessee, and a copy of
the policy, or a certificate of insurance together 

  
 9 

 
with proof of premium payment, shall be delivered to Tenant initially and at each renewal thereof. For the first calendar year of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on or before the
Commencement Date, the total cost of such fire and casualty insurance for such period of time. For calendar years following the first calendar year of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance of such calendar year, Landlord’s total
estimated cost of such fire and casualty insurance for such upcoming calendar year. Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the expiration of each calendar year, the estimated cost of such fire and casualty insurance shall be reconciled
against the actual cost of such insurance, and any deficiency shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days following demand. If such reconciliation reveals an overpayment by Tenant, such excess shall be credited against the next
installment of Rent due hereunder or, if the Term has then expired, such excess shall be refunded to Tenant within ten (10) days following demand. All amounts due Landlord under this section shall be Additional Rental. 

c. No Subrogation; Waiver of Property Claims. Landlord and Tenant each waives any claim it might have against the other for any damage
to or theft, destruction, loss, or loss of use of any property, to the extent the same is insured against under any insurance policy of the types described in this Section 18 that covers the Premises, Landlord’s or Tenant’s fixtures,
personal property, leasehold improvements, or business, or is required to be insured against under the terms hereof. Each party shall cause its insurance carrier to endorse all applicable policies waiving the carrier’s rights of recovery under
subrogation or otherwise against the other party. 
 19. Damages from Certain Causes. Landlord shall not be liable or responsible to
Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, riot, strike, insurrection, war, act or omission of any party other than Landlord, any nuisance or interference caused or created by any
property owner other than Landlord, requisition or order of governmental body or authority, court order or injunction, or any cause beyond Landlord’s control or for any damage or inconvenience which may arise through repair or alteration of any
part of the Premises as required by this Lease. 
 20. Hold Harmless. 

a. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, its agents, servants, employees, contractors, customers or invitees for any damage to person or
property caused by any act, omission or neglect of Tenant. Without limiting or being limited by any other indemnity in this Lease, but rather in confirmation and furtherance thereof, Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend by counsel reasonably
acceptable to Landlord and hold Landlord harmless of, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, liens, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses)
in connection with injury to or death of any person or damage to or theft, loss or loss of the use of any property occurring in or about the Premises arising from Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, or the conduct of its business or from any
activity, work, or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises, or from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Tenant to be performed pursuant to the terms
of this Lease, or due to any other act or omission or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of its agents, employees, contractors, assigns, subtenants, guest or invitees. 

  
 10 

 b. Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord, its agents, servants, employees, contractors,
customers or invitees for any damage to person or property caused by any act, omission or neglect of Landlord. Without limiting or being limited by any other indemnity in this Lease, but rather in confirmation and furtherance thereof, Landlord
agrees to indemnify, defend by counsel reasonably acceptable to Tenant and hold Tenant harmless of, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, liens, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, court costs, reasonable
attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses) in connection with injury to or death of any person or damage to or theft, loss or loss of the use of any property occurring in or about the Premises arising from any breach or default on the part of
Landlord in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of Landlord to be performed pursuant to the terms of this Lease, or due to any other grossly negligent act or omission or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of its agents or
employees. 
 21. Default and Remedies. 

a. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default under and breach of this Lease by Teant (an “Event of
Default”): 
 (i) Failure by Tenant to pay any monetary amounts (including Base Rental and Additional Rental) due
hereunder within ten (10) days following written notice of non-payment from Landlord to Tenant; 
 (ii) Abandonment of
the Premises (defined as any period of one hundred and eighty (180) consecutive days without operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises); 

(iii) Failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants in respect of assignment and subletting of this Lease; 

(iv) Failure by Tenant to cure forthwith, immediately after receipt of notice from Landlord, any hazardous condition which
Tenant has created or permitted in violation of law or of this Lease; 
 (v) Failure by Tenant to complete, execute and
deliver any instrument or document required to be completed, executed and delivered by Tenant within twenty (20) days after the initial written demand for same to Tenant; 

(vi) Failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other non-monetary covenant, agreement, condition or provision of this Lease,
if such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for the time reasonably required to complete such cure, if such failure
cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period and Tenant commences to cure such failure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously proceeds to cure such failure; 

  
 11 

 (vii) The levy upon execution or the attachment by legal process of the leasehold
interest of Tenant, or the filing or creation of a lien in respect of such leasehold interest, which lien shall not be released or discharged within thirty (30) days from the date of such filing; 

(viii) Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease becomes insolvent or bankrupt or admits in writing
its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or applies for or consents to the appointment of a trustee or receiver for all or a major part of its property; 

(ix) A trustee or receiver is appointed for Tenant, any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or for a major
part of either party’s property and is not discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment; 
 (x) Any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding for relief under any bankruptcy law or similar law for the relief of debtors, is instituted (A) by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s
obligations under this Lease, or (B) against Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and is allowed against it or is consented to by it or is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after such institution; or

 (xi) Tenant’s repeated failure to observe or perform any of the other covenants, terms or conditions hereof more than
three (3) times, in the aggregate, in any period of twelve (12) consecutive months. 
 b. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Landlord agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages, but shall have the option to do and perform any one or more of the following in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy or right permitted it by law or in
equity or by this Lease: 
 (i) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any time thereafter
re-enter the Premises and correct or repair any condition which shall constitute a failure on Tenant’s part to keep, observe, perform, satisfy, or abide by any term, condition, covenant, agreement, or obligation of this Lease, and Tenant shall
fully reimburse and compensate Landlord, for Landlord’s actual cost incurred, on demand. 
 (ii) Landlord, with or
without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any time thereafter demand in writing that Tenant vacate the Premises and thereupon Tenant shall vacate the Premises and remove therefrom all property thereon belonging to or placed on the
Premises by, at the direction of, or with consent of Tenant within ten (10) days of receipt by Tenant of such notice from Landlord, whereupon Landlord shall have the right to re-enter and take possession of the Premises. 

(iii) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any time thereafter, re-enter the Premises and
remove therefrom Tenant and all property belonging to or placed on the Premises by, at the direction of, or with consent of Tenant. 

  
 12 

 
Any such re-entry and removal by Landlord shall not of itself constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of this Lease or of the Premises by Tenant and shall not of itself constitute a
termination of this Lease by Landlord. 
 (iv) Landlord, with or without terminating this Lease, may immediately or at any
time thereafter relet the Premises or any part thereof for such time or times, at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, and Landlord may make any alterations or repairs
to the Premises which it may deem necessary or proper to facilitate such reletting; and Tenant shall pay all reasonable costs of such reletting; and if this Lease shall not have been terminated, Tenant shall continue to pay all rent and all other
charges due under this lease up to and including the date of beginning of payment of rent by any subsequent tenant of part or all of the Premises, and thereafter Tenant shall pay monthly during the remainder of the term of this Lease the difference,
if any, between the rent and other charges collected from any such subsequent tenant or tenants and the rent and other charges reserved in this Lease, but Tenant shall not be entitled to receive any excess of any such rents collected over the rents
reserved herein. 
 (v) Landlord may immediately or at any time thereafter terminate this Lease, and this Lease shall be
deemed to have been terminated upon receipt by Tenant of written notice of such termination; upon such termination Landlord shall recover from Tenant all damages Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination including, without limitation,
unamortized sums expended by Landlord for leasing commissions and construction of tenant improvements, all arrearages in rentals, costs, charges, additional rentals, and reimbursements, the cost (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) of
recovering possession of the Premises, the cost of any alteration of or repair to the Premises which is necessary or proper to prepare the same for reletting and, in addition thereto, Landlord at its election shall have and recover from Tenant
either (A) an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the total amount of all rents and other charges to be paid by Tenant for the remainder of the term of this Lease over the then reasonable rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the
term of this Lease, or (B) the rents and other charges which Landlord would be entitled to receive from Tenant pursuant to the provisions of subsection (iv) if the Lease were not terminated. Such election shall be made by Landlord by
serving written notice upon Tenant of its choice of one of the two said alternatives within thirty (30) days of the notice of termination. 

(vi) The exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the rights and remedies provided in this Lease shall not prevent the
subsequent exercise by Landlord of any one or more of the other rights and remedies herein provided. All remedies provided for in this Lease are cumulative and may, at the election of Landlord, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any
other manner and are in addition to any other rights provided for or allowed by law or in equity. 
 (vii) No act by Landlord
with respect to the Premises shall terminate this Lease, including, but not limited to, acceptance of the keys, institution of an action for detainer or other dispossessory proceedings, it being understood that this Lease may only be terminated by
express written notice from Landlord to Tenant, and any reletting of the Premises shall be presumed to be for and on behalf of Tenant, and not Landlord, unless Landlord expressly provides otherwise in writing to Tenant. 

  
 13 

 c. In the event Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease and such
non-performance continues for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice of default from Tenant, Landlord shall be deemed to be in material default of this Lease, and Tenant shall have all remedies available at law, in equity or
under this Lease; provided, however, that such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for the time reasonably required to complete such cure, if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period and Landlord
commences to cure such failure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously proceeds to cure such failure. 

  
 14 

 22. Late Payments. In the event any installment of any Rental owed by Tenant hereunder is
not paid within 10 days, Tenant shall pay a late charge equal to the greater of $100.00 or five percent (5%) of the amount due. The parties agree that such charge is a fair and reasonable estimate of Landlord’s administrative expense
incurred on account of late payment. Should Tenant make a partial payment of past due amounts, the amount of such partial payment shall be applied first to reduce all accrued and unpaid late charges, in inverse order of their maturity, and then to
reduce all other past due amounts, in inverse order of their maturity. 
 23. Attorney’s Fees. If either party initiates any
action to enforce its rights under this Lease or the terms hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to collect from the other party all court costs, reasonable attorneys fees and litigation expenses, including, but not limited to, costs of
depositions and expert witnesses, that the prevailing party actually incurs in connection with such action. 
 24. No Waiver of
Rights. No failure or delay of Landlord to exercise any right or power given it herein or to insist upon strict compliance by Tenant of any obligation imposed on it herein and no custom or practice of either party hereto at variance with any
term hereof shall constitute a waiver or a modification of the terms hereof by Landlord or any right it has herein to demand strict compliance with the terms hereof by Tenant. No waiver of any right of Landlord or any default by Tenant on one
occasion shall operate as a waiver of any of Landlord’s other rights or of any subsequent default by Tenant. No express waiver shall affect any condition, covenant, rule, or regulation other than the one specified in such waiver and then only
for the time and in the manner specified in such waiver. No person has or shall have any authority to waive any provision of this Lease unless such waiver is expressly made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Landlord. 

25. Holding Over. In the event of holding over by Tenant after expiration or termination of this Lease without the written consent of
Landlord, Tenant shall pay as rent for such holdover period one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Rental that would have been payable if this Lease had not so terminated or expired). No holding over by Tenant after the term of this Lease
shall be construed to extend this Lease, and Tenant shall be deemed a tenant at will, terminable on five (5) days notice from Landlord. In the event of any unauthorized holding over, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all claims for
damages by any other tenant to whom Landlord shall have leased all or any part of the Premises effective upon the termination of this Lease. 

26. Subordination. 
 a.
If this Lease (and all its terms and conditions) shall become subject and subordinate to any mortgages or deeds of trust covering the Premises, whether or not for the full amount of all advances made or to be made thereunder and without regard to
the time or character of such advances, the holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust (any of the foregoing, a “Holder”), shall execute a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in form and content reasonably acceptable
to Tenant and such mortgagee providing (in part) that as long as an event of default on the part of Tenant is not in existence, Tenant shall not be disturbed in its possession of the Premises or have its rights hereunder terminated or modified by
such mortgagee, except pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. 

  
 15 

 b. Tenant agrees that if Landlord defaults in the performance or observance of any covenant or
condition of this Lease required to be performed or observed by Landlord hereunder, Tenant will give written notice specifying such default by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to any Holder of which Tenant has been notified in writing,
and before Tenant exercises any right or remedy which it may have on account of any such default of Landlord, such party shall have the same amount of time as is afforded Landlord to cure such default of Landlord. Whether or not any deed of trust or
mortgage is foreclosed, or any Holder succeeds to any interest of Landlord under this Lease, no Holder shall have any liability to Tenant for any security deposit paid to Landlord by Tenant hereunder, unless such security deposit has actually been
received by such Holder. No Holder of which Tenant has been notified, in writing, shall be bound by any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the written consent of such Holder, nor shall any such party be liable for any defaults of
Landlord under this Lease. 
 27. Estoppel Certificate. Tenant agrees that, from time to time upon request by Landlord, or any
existing or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor, Tenant will complete, execute and deliver a written estoppel certificate certifying (a) that this Lease is unmodified and is in full force and effect (or if there have been modifications, that
this Lease, as modified, is in full force and effect and setting forth the modifications); (b) the amounts of the monthly installments of Base Rental, Additional Rental and other sums then required to be paid under this Lease by Tenant;
(c) the date to which the Base Rental, Additional Rental and other sums required to be paid under this Lease by Tenant have been paid; (d) that Landlord is not in default under any of the provisions of this Lease, or if in default, the
nature thereof in detail and what is required to cure same; and (e) such other information concerning the status of this Lease or the parties’ performance hereunder reasonably requested by Landlord or the party to whom such estoppel
certificate is to be addressed. 
 28. Sublease or Assignment by Tenant. 

a. The Tenant shall not, without the Landlord’s prior written consent, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed by Landlord, (i) assign, convey, mortgage, pledge, encumber, or otherwise transfer (whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise) this Lease or any interest hereunder; (ii) allow any lien to be placed upon
Tenant’s interest hereunder; (iii) sublet the Premises or any part thereof; or (iv) permit the use or occupancy of the Premises or any part thereof by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant’s subsidiaries. Any attempt to consummate
any of the foregoing without Landlord’s consent shall be void and of no force or effect. For purposes hereof, the transfer of the ownership or voting rights in a controlling interest of the voting stock of Tenant (if Tenant is a corporation) or
the transfer of a general partnership interest or a majority of the limited partnership or membership interest in Tenant (if Tenant is a partnership or limited liability company), at any time throughout the term of this Lease, shall be deemed to be
an assignment of this Lease. 
 b. For any proposed assignment or subletting Tenant shall submit to Landlord a copy of the proposed sublease
or assignment, and such additional information concerning the business, reputation and creditworthiness of the proposed sublessee or assignee as shall be sufficient to allow Landlord to form a commercially reasonable judgment with respect thereto.
If Landlord approves any proposed sublease or assignment, Landlord shall receive from Tenant as Additional Rental fifty 

  
 16 

 
percent (50%) of any rents or other sums received by Tenant pursuant to said sublease or assignment in excess of the rentals payable to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease (after deducting
all of Tenant’s reasonable costs associated therewith, including reasonable brokerage fees and the reasonable cost of remodeling or otherwise improving the Premises for said sublessee or assignee), as such rents or other sums are received by
Tenant from the approved sublessee or assignee. Landlord may require that any rent or other sums paid by a sublessee or assignee be paid directly to Landlord. 

c. Notwithstanding the giving by Landlord of its consent to any subletting, assignment or occupancy as provided hereunder or any language
contained in such lease, sublease or assignment to the contrary, unless this Lease is expressly terminated by Landlord, Tenant shall not be relieved of any of Tenant’s obligations or covenants under this Lease and Tenant shall remain fully
liable hereunder. 
 d. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, so long as Tenant remains jointly and severally liable for
all of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right, without Landlord’s consent, to assign or transfer its interest in this Lease: (i) in connection with a merger or reorganization of Tenant or a sale of all or
substantially all of Tenant’s assets (so long as such assignee expressly assumes all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease in writing); (ii) to an entity wholly or partially owned or controlled by, or under common control with,
Tenant; or (iii) to an entity whose (A) net worth is equal to or greater than the greater of the net worth or Tenant (1) on the date of this Lease or (2) at the time of such assignment; and (B) use of the Premises will be
for banking and financial services; general business office use; or any other reputable business activity approved by Landlord in its reasonable discretion. 

29. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants that Tenant shall and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Premises free from hindrance by
Landlord or any person claiming by, through or under Landlord but subject to the other terms hereof, provided that Tenant pays the Base Rental, Additional Rental, and any other sums herein recited to be paid by Tenant and performs all of
Tenant’s covenants and agreements herein contained. It is understood and agreed that this covenant and any and all other covenants of Landlord contained in this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only with respect to
breaches occurring during the ownership of the Landlord’s interest hereunder. 

  
 17 

 30. Assignment by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to transfer and assign, in whole
or in part, all its rights and obligations hereunder, in the Premises, and in such event and upon such transfer no further liability or obligation shall thereafter accrue against Landlord hereunder. 

31. Limitation of Landlord’s Personal Liability. Tenant specifically agrees to look solely to Landlord’s equity interest in
the Premises for the recovery of any monetary judgment against Landlord, it being agreed that Landlord (and its partners, members and shareholders) shall never be personally liable for any such judgment. The provision contained in the foregoing
sentence is not intended to, and shall not, limit any right that Tenant might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief against Landlord or Landlord’s successors-in-interest or any suit or action in connection with enforcement or collection of
amounts which may become owing or payable under or on account of insurance maintained by Landlord. 
 32. Force Majeure. Landlord and
Tenant (except with respect to the payment of Base Rental or Additional Rental or any other monetary obligation under this Lease) shall be excused for the period of any delay and shall not be deemed in default with respect to the performance of any
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease when prevented from so doing by a cause or causes beyond the Landlord’s or Tenant’s (as the case may be) control (excluding financial inability to perform), which shall include, without
limitation, all labor disputes, governmental regulations or controls, fire or other casualty, inability to obtain any material or services, acts of God, or any other cause not within the reasonable control of Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be).

 33. Surrender of Premises. Upon the termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise or upon the earlier termination of
Tenant’s right of possession, Tenant shall quit and surrender possession of the Premises (including all leasehold improvements made or installed by Tenant or by Landlord) to Landlord, broom clean, in the same condition as upon delivery of
possession to Tenant hereunder, normal wear and tear, casualty events and condemnation events, excepted. Before surrendering possession of the Premises, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove all signs, furnishings, equipment, trade
fixtures, merchandise and other personal property installed or placed in the Premises and all debris and rubbish, and Tenant shall repair all damage to Premises resulting from such removal. If Tenant fails to remove any of the signs, furnishings,
equipment, trade fixtures, merchandise and other personal property installed or placed in the Premises by the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, then Landlord may, at its sole option, (i) deem any or all of such items
abandoned and the sole property of Landlord; or (ii) remove any and all such items and dispose of same in any manner. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand any and all expenses incurred by Landlord in the removal of such items, including, without
limitation, the cost of repairing any damage to the Premises caused by such removal and storage charges (if Landlord elects to store such property). 

34. Notices. Any notice or other communications required or permitted to be given under this Lease must be in writing and shall be
effectively given or delivered if (a) hand delivered to the addresses for Landlord and Tenant stated below, (b) sent by certified or registered United States Mail, return receipt requested, to said addresses, (c) sent by nationally
recognized overnight courier (such as Federal Express, UPS Next Day Air or Airborne Express), with all delivery charges paid by the sender and signature required for delivery, to said address; or (d) sent by facsimile to the

  
 18 

 
facsimile numbers for Landlord and Tenant stated below and actually received, as evidenced by facsimile confirmation report, by Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be. Any notice mailed shall be
deemed to have been given upon receipt or refusal thereof. Notice effected by hand delivery shall be deemed to have been given at the time of actual delivery. Either party shall have the right to change its address to which notices shall thereafter
be sent and the party to whose attention such notice shall be directed by giving the other party notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

 35. Miscellaneous. 

a. This Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Landlord, and shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of Tenant, its successors, and, to the extent assignment may be approved by Landlord hereunder, Tenant’s assigns. 
 b. All
rights and remedies of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease shall be cumulative and none shall exclude any other rights or remedies allowed by law. This Lease is declared to be a Tennessee contract, and all of the terms hereof shall be construed
according to the laws of the State of Tennessee. 
 c. This Lease represents the entirety of the agreement between the parties with respect
to the subject matter hereof, and this agreement shall replace, be a substitute for and supersede, in all respects, any and all prior oral, electronic or written understandings between Landlord and Tenant as to Tenant’s leasing of the Premises
from the Landlord and the matters contemplated hereby, including, without limitation and in all respects, any letter(s) of intent or understanding. This Lease may not be hereafter altered, changed or amended, except by an instrument in writing
executed by all parties hereto. 
 d. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, Tenant warrants
that all consents or approvals required of third parties (including but not limited to its Board of Directors, partners or members) for the execution, delivery and performance of this Lease have been obtained and that Tenant has the right and
authority to enter into and perform its covenants contained in this Lease. 

  
 19 

 e. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive
trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this lease, the relationship of landlord and tenant,
Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises and/or any claim of injury or damage. In the event Landlord commences any proceedings for nonpayment of rent or any other amounts payable hereunder, Tenant shall not interpose any counterclaim of
whatever nature or description in any such proceeding, unless the failure to raise the same would constitute a waiver thereof. This shall not, however, be construed as a waiver of Tenant’s right to assert such claims in any separate action
brought by Tenant. 
 f. If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall to any
extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this
Lease shall be valid and shall be enforceable to the extent permitted by law. 
 g. Time is of the essence in this Lease. 

h. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant did not deal with any broker in connection with this Lease. Tenant shall indemnify,
defend and hold Landlord harmless of, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, liens, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses) arising from any
claims or demands of any other broker or brokers or finders for any commission alleged to be due such other broker or brokers or finders claiming to have dealt with Tenant in connection with this Lease or with whom Tenant hereafter deals or whom
Tenant employs. 
 i. If Tenant comprises more than one person, corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, the
liability hereunder of all such persons, corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be joint and several. 
 j. Landlord’s
receipt of any monetary amount due hereunder (including Base Rental and Additional Rental) payable by Tenant hereunder with knowledge of the breach of a covenant or agreement contained in this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of the breach. No
acceptance by Landlord of a lesser amount than the full and complete installment of monetary amount due under this Lease (including Base Rental and Additional Rental) which is due shall be considered, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any
check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed, an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept a check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance due or to pursue any other remedy provided in this
Lease. 
 k. Submission of this instrument for examination shall not constitute a reservation of or option to lease the Premises or in any
manner bind Landlord, and no lease or obligation on Landlord shall arise until this instrument is signed and delivered by Landlord and Tenant. 

l. Any claim, cause of action, liability or obligation arising under the term of this Lease and under the provisions hereof in favor of a
party hereto against or obligating the other party hereto and all of Tenant’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall survive the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease.

DESCRIPTION OF PREMISES
