NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, and with the intention of being legally bound, the Landlord and Tenant hereby
agree as follows:

1. Except as specifically defined in this First Amendment, initially capitalized terms in
this First Amendment shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Lease.

its entirety as follows:

Remaining Space, unless the term of the Lease is extended by Tenant as provided herein. If Tenant
exercises its option to renew for five years, the termination date shall be the last day of such
five extension period.”

3. The definition of Miniumum Rent as set forth in the BASIC LEASE PROVISIONS AND
DEFINITIONS is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

“Minimum Rent: For the Initial Space from June 1, 2008 through March 31, 2019 :

$26,311.34 per month (which is equal to $315,736.08 per year), as adjusted pursuant to Article 4 of
this Lease.

The Annual Rent during the renewal term shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of
this Paragraph. In the event the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers
in the City of Philadelphia published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of
Labor (1982-84 equals 100) (hereinafter called the “Price Index”) or a successor or substitute
index appropriately adjusted, reflects an increase in the cost of living in the first full calendar
month of the renewal term of this Lease (the “Adjustment Month”) over and above such cost of living
as reflected by the Price Index as it exists for the month in which the Move In Date occurs
(hereinafter called the “Base Index”), the Annual Rent during the renewal term shall be increased
to the amount determined by multiplying the Annual Rent (applicable to

both the Initial Space and the Remaining Space) provided for the last year of the initial term of
this Lease by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Price Index for the Adjustment Month
and the denominator of which shall be the Base Index. In the event that such determination cannot
be made until after the commencement of the renewal term, the increase of the monthly rental
payments due for the months of the renewal term prior to such determination shall be paid to
Landlord upon the date the next payment of rent is due following such determination. In no event
shall the Annual Rent during the renewal term be less than the Annual Rent for the last year of the
initial term of this Lease.”

4. Section 5A of the Lease is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

“ A. Commencing on January 1, 2009, with respect to the Initial Space, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Additional Rent. The Additional Rent for the Term
of the Lease shall initially be estimated to be $5.00 per square foot or $133,749.96 per annum for
the Initial Space which Tenant shall remit to Landlord in monthly payments of $11,145.83 on account
of the Additional Rent, commencing on January 1, 2009. Commencing on the Move In Date, unless
Landlord contributes to any delay in Tenant’s ability to move in by such date and, if the
conditions for the Remaining Space becoming subject to this Lease are satisfied during the
applicable time periods indicated herein, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Additional Rent for both
the Initial Space and the Remaining Space. The estimated $5.00 per square foot or $290,055 per
annum for the Premises which Tenant shall remit to Landlord in monthly payments of $24,171.25
commencing on the Move In Date on account of the Additional Rent. “Additional Rent” shall mean
Taxes, Operating Expenses and other charges due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder.”

5. Section 46 of the Lease is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

“46. LANDSCAPING AND CERTAIN REPAIRS. On or before April 1, 2009, Landlord at its own cost
and expense shall (i) upgrade the existing landscaping by trimming and maintaining the trees and

as needed, all concrete walkways, curbs, and stairs for cracks or damage and (iii) remove the

remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Tenant hereby confirms and

Re:       First Amendment to Services Agreement

Dear Larry:

Reference is made to that certain Services Agreement between Wilford & Geske, a professional
association (the “Firm”) and American Processing Company, LLC (“APC”) dated February 22, 2008 (the
“Services Agreement”). The purpose of this letter is to set forth our understandings and agreements
regarding an amendment to Section 3.1 of the Services Agreement. Capitalized terms used, but not
otherwise defined in this letter, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Services
Agreement.

	 	1.	 	As of the date hereof, Section 3.1(c) is hereby amended to read as follows:

	 
	 	 	 	“Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.1(c), for each year during the term
of this Agreement after the Initial Years, on or before the forty-fifth (45th) day
prior to an Amended Fee Schedule Date (the “Amended Fee Schedule Due Date”),
the Service Provider may propose to the Firm an amended Fee Schedule (an
“Amended Fee Schedule”) that will be in effect for the one-year period
commencing with the applicable Amended Fee Schedule Date. On or before the fifteenth
(15th) day after receiving the proposed Amended Fee Schedule , the Firm may deliver
to the Service Provider a notice of objection to the proposed Amended Fee Schedule
(an “Objection Notice”). If no such Objection Notice is timely delivered by
the Firm to the Service Provider, then that Amended Fee Schedule shall be binding on
the Parties for the one-year period commencing on the applicable Amended Fee
Schedule Date. If the Firm does timely deliver to the Service Provider an Objection
Notice, the Firm and the Service Provider shall thereafter negotiate with each other
in good faith to agree upon an Amended Fee Schedule. If the Firm and the Service
Provider are unable to agree upon an Amended Fee Schedule within thirty (30) days
after an Objection Notice has been given, then the existing Fee Schedule shall
remain in effect and the Service Provider shall thereafter have the option of
terminating this Agreement in its sole discretion in accordance with Section
9.4 hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for calendar year
2014, the Service Provider may propose to the firm an Amended Fee Schedule, if any,
on or before the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the Amended Fee Schedule Date for
that year.

	 
	 	2.	 	Except as expressly amended in this First Amendment, the Services Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

 

 

 

This First Amendment to Services Agreement (the “First Amendment”) shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This First
Amendment shall be governed by the laws of the state of Minnesota, without reference to its
conflict of laws principles. This First Amendment may be executed by facsimile or email
transmission and in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of
which together shall constitute one instrument. The Services Agreement, as amended by this First
Amendment, contain the entire understanding of the parties with regard to the Services to be
rendered to the Firm by APC and supersede all prior agreements, understandings or letters of intent
with regard to that subject between the parties. This First Amendment shall not be amended,
modified or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both parties.

If the above terms and conditions reflect our agreement regarding the amendments to the
Services Agreement, please sign this First Amendment to Services Agreement and return a fully
executed original of it to me.
