	2.	Premises. 

 2.1
Letting. Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the Premises, for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease. While the approximate square footage of the
Premises may have been used in the marketing of the Premises for purposes of comparison, the Base Rent stated herein is NOT tied to square footage and is not subject to adjustment should the actual size be determined to be different Note: Lessee
is advised to verify the actual size prior to executing this Lease. 
 2.2 Condition. Lessor shall deliver the
Premises to Lessee in a clean condition on the Commencement Date or the Early Possession Date, whichever first occurs (“Start Date”), and warrants that the existing electrical, plumbing, fire sprinkler. lighting heating, ventilating
and air conditioning systems (“HVAC”), and all other items which the Lessor is obligated to construct pursuant to the Work Letter attached hereto, if any. other than those constructed by Lessee, shall be in good operating condition
on said date, that the structural elements of the roof, bearing walls and foundation of the Unit shall be free of material defects, and that the Premises do not contain hazardous levels of any mold or fungi defined as toxic under applicable state or
federal law. 
 2.3 Compliance. Lessor warrants to the best of its knowledge that the improvements comprising the
Premises and the Common Areas comply with the building codes that were in effect at the time that each such Improvement, or portion thereof, was constructed, and also with all applicable laws, covenants or restrictions of record, regulations, and
ordinances (“Applicable Requirements”) in effect on the Start Date. Said warranty does not apply to the use to which Lessee will put the Premises, modifications which may be required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any
similar laws as a result of Lessee’s use (see Paragraph 49), or to any Alterations or Utility Installations (as defined in Paragraph 7.3(a)) made or to be made by Lessee. NOTE: Lessee is responsible for determining whether or not the zoning
and other Applicable Requirements are appropriate for Lessee’s intended use, and acknowledges that past uses of the Premises may no longer be allowed. If the Premises do not comply with said warranty, Lessor shall, except as otherwise
provided, promptly after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature and extent of such non-compliance, rectify the same If the Applicable Requirements are hereafter changed so as to require during the term of
this Lease the construction of an addition to or an alteration of the Premises, the remediation of any Hazardous Substance, or the reinforcement or other physical modification of the Premises (“Capital Expenditure”). Lessor and
Lessee shall allocate the cost of such work as follows: 
 (a) Subject to Paragraph 2.3(c) below, if such Capital Expenditures
are required as a result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee as compared with uses by tenants in general. Lessee shall be fully responsible for the reasonable cost thereof, provided, however that if such Capital Expenditure is
required during the last 2 years of this Lease and the cost thereof exceeds 6 months’ Base Rent. Lessee may instead terminate this Lease unless Lessor notifies Lessee, In writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessee’s termination notice
that Lessor has elected to pay the difference between the actual cost thereof and the amount equal to 6 months’ Base Rent If Lessee elects termination. Lessee shall immediately cease the use of the Premises which requires such Capital
Expenditure and deliver to Lessor written notice specifying a termination date at least 90 days thereafter Such termination date shall, however, in no event be earlier than the last day than Lessee could legally utilize the Premises without
commencing such Capital Expenditure. 

                  (b) If such Capital Expenditure is not the
result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee (such as, governmentally mandated seismic modifications), then Lessor shall pay for such Capital Expenditure and Lessee shall only be obligated to pay, each month during the remainder
of the term of this Lease or any extension thereof, on the date that on which the Base Rent is due, an amount equal to 1/144th of the portion of such costs reasonably attributable to the Premises. Lessee shall pay Interest on the balance but may
prepay its obligation at any time. If, however, such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Lease or if Lessor reasonably determines that it is not economically feasible to pay its share thereof, Lessor shall have the option
to terminate this Lease upon 90 days prior written notice to Lessee unless Lessee notifies Lessor, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessor’s termination notice that Lessee will pay for such Capital Expenditure. If Lessor does not
elect to terminate, and fails to tender its share of any such Capital Expenditure, Lessee may advance such funds and deduct same, with Interest, from Rent until Lessor’s share of such costs have been fully paid. If Lessee is unable to finance
Lessor’s share, or if the balance of the Rent due and payable for the remainder of this Lease is not sufficient to fully reimburse Lessee on an offset basis. Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon 30 days written notice to
Lessor. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the above, the provisions concerning Capital Expenditures are intended to apply only to
nonvoluntary, unexpected, and new Applicable Requirements. If the Capital Expenditures are instead triggered by Lessee as a result of an actual or proposed change in use, change in intensity of use, or modification to the Premises then, and in that
event, Lessee shall either: (i) immediately cease such changed use or intensity of use and/or take such other steps as may be necessary to eliminate the requirement for such Capital Expenditure. or (ii) complete such Capital Expenditure at
its own expense. Lessee shall not have any night to terminate this Lease.

item that is not specifically attributable to the Building or to any other building or to the operation, repair and maintenance thereof, shall be equitably allocated by Lessor to all buildings in
the Project. 
 (e) The inclusion of the improvements, facilities and services set forth in Subparagraph 4.2(c) shall not be
deemed to impose an obligation upon Lessor to either have said improvements or facilities or to provide those services unless the Project already has the same, Lessor already provides the services, or Lessor has agreed elsewhere in this Lease to
provide the same or some of them. 
 (f) Lessee’s Share of Operating Expense Increase is payable monthly on the same day as

reasonably detailed statement showing Lessee’s Share of the actual Common Area Operating Expenses for the preceding year. If Lessee’s payments during such Year exceed Lessee’s Share. Lessee shall credit the amount of such over-payment
against Lessee’s future payments. If Lessee’s payments during such Year were less than Lessee’s Share. Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency within 10 days after delivery by Lessor to Lessee of said statement. Lessor
and Lessee shall forthwith adjust between them by cash payment any balance determined to exist with respect to that portion of the last Comparison Year for which Lessee is responsible as to Operating Expense Increases, notwithstanding that the Lease
term may have terminated before the end of such Comparison Year. 
 (g) Operating Expenses shall not include the costs of
replacement for equipment or capital components such as the roof, foundations, exterior walls or a Common Area capital improvement, such as the parking lot paving, elevators, fences that have a useful life for accounting purposes of 5 years or more.

 (h) Operating Expenses shall not include any expenses paid by any tenant directly to third parties, or as to which Lessor is
otherwise reimbursed by any third party, other tenant, or by insurance proceeds. 
 4.3 Payment. Lessee shall cause
payment of Rent to be received by Lessor in lawful money of the United States on or before the day on which it is due, without offset or deduction (except as specifically permitted in this Lease). All monetary amounts shall be rounded to the nearest
whole dollar. In the event that any invoice prepared by Lessor is inaccurate such inaccuracy shall not constitute a waiver and Lessee shall be obligated to pay the amount set forth in this Lease. Rent for any period during the term hereof which is
for less than one full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of said month. Payment of Rent shall be made to Lessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or place as Lessor may from time to time
designate in writing. Acceptance of a payment which is less than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of Lessor’s rights to the balance of such Rent, regardless of Lessor’s endorsement of any check so stating. In the event that any
check, draft, or other instrument of payment given by Lessee to Lessor is dishonored for any reason. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor the sum of $25 in addition to any Late Charge and Lessor, at its option, may require all future Rent be paid by
cashier’s check. Payments will be applied first to accrued late charges and attorney’s fees, second to accrued interest, then to Base Rent and Common Area Operating Expenses, and any remaining amount to any other outstanding charges or
costs. 
 5. Security Deposit. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof the Security Deposit as
security for Lessee’s faithful performance of its obligations under this Lease. If Lessee fails to pay Rent, or otherwise Defaults under this Lease. Lessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said Security Deposit for the payment of
any amount already due Lessor, for Rents which will be due in the future, and/ or to reimburse or compensate Lessor for any liability, expense, loss or damage which Lessor may suffer or incur by reason thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all or any
portion of the Security Deposit. Lessee shall within 10 days after written request therefor deposit monies with Lessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease If the Base Rent increases during
the term of this Lease. Lessee shall, upon written request from Lessor, deposit additional monies with Lessor so that the total amount of the Security Deposit shall at all time bear the same proportion to the increased Base Rent as the initial
Security Deposit bore to the initial Base Rent. Should the Agreed Use be amended to-accommodate a material change in the business of Lessee or to accommodate a sublessee or assignee, Lessor shall have the right to increase the Security Deposit to
the extent necessary; in Lessor’s reasonable judgment, to account for any increased wear and tear that the Premises may Suffer as a result thereof. If a change in control of Lessee occurs during this Lease and following such change the
financial condition of Lessee is. in Lessor’s reasonable judgment, significantly reduced; Lessee shall deposit such additional monies with Lessor as shall be sufficient to cause the Security Deposit to be at a commercially reasonable level based on such change in financial condition.
Lessor shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Within 90 days after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Lessor shall return
that portion of the Security Deposit not used or applied by Lessor. No part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in trust, to bear interest or to be prepayment for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease.

Liability. Notwithstanding the negligence or breach of this Lease by Lessor or its agents, neither Lessor nor its agents shall be liable under any circumstances for: (i) injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other
property of Lessee, Lessee’s employees, contractors, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, indoor air quality,

obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, HVAC or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said injury or damage results from conditions
arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the Building, or from other sources or places, (ii) any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant of Lessor or from the failure of Lessor or its agents to enforce the provisions
of any other lease in the Project, or (iii) injury to Lessee’s business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom. Instead, it is intended that Lessee’s sole recourse in the event of such damages or injury be to file a claim on the
insurance policy(ies) that Lessee is required to maintain pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 8. 
 8.9 Failure to
Provide Insurance. Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to obtain or maintain the insurance required herein will expose Lessor to risks and potentially cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which
will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, for any month or portion thereof that Lessee does not maintain the required insurance and/or does not provide Lessor with the required binders or certificates evidencing the existence of the
required insurance, the Base Rent shall be automatically increased, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then existing Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater. The parties agree that such increase in Base
Rent represents fair and reasonable compensation for the additional risk/costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee’s failure to maintain the required insurance. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of
Lessee’s Default or Breach with respect to the failure to maintain such insurance, prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, nor relieve Lessee of its obligation to maintain the insurance specified in this
Lease. 
 9. Damage or Destruction. 
 9.1 Definitions. 
 (a) “Premises Partial Damage” shall
mean damage or destruction to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, which can reasonably be repaired in 3 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction, and the cost thereof does
not exceed a sum equal to 6 month’s Base Rent. Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing within 30 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total. 

(b) “Premises Total Destruction” shall mean damage or destruction to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee
Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which cannot reasonably be repaired in 3 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction and/or the cost thereof exceeds a sum equal to 6 month’s Base Rent. Lessor shall
notify Lessee in writing within 30 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total. 
 (c) “Insured Loss” shall mean damage or destruction to improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which was caused by
an event required to be covered by the insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a), irrespective of any deductible amounts or coverage limits involved. 
 (d) “Replacement Cost” shall mean the reasonable cost to repair or rebuild the improvements owned by Lessor at the time of the occurrence to their condition existing immediately prior
thereto, including demolition, debris removal and upgrading required by the operation of Applicable Requirements, and without deduction for depreciation.

Premises which requires restoration. 
 9.2 Partial Damage—Insured Loss. If a Premises Partial Damage that is an
Insured Loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor’s expense, repair such damage (but not Lessee’s Trade Fixtures or Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect; provided, however, that Lessee shall, at Lessor’s election, make the repair of any damage or destruction the total cost to repair of which is $5,000 or less, and, in such event, Lessor shall make any applicable insurance
proceeds available to Lessee on a reasonable basis for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the required insurance was not in force or the insurance proceeds are not sufficient to effect such repair, the Insuring Party shall promptly
contribute the shortage in proceeds as and when required to complete said repairs. In the event, however, such shortage was due to the fact that, by reason of the unique nature of the improvements, full replacement cost insurance coverage was not
commercially reasonable and available. Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate
assurance thereof, within 10 days following receipt of written notice of such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate assurance thereof within said 10 day period, the party responsible for making the repairs shall

case of an emergency, without notice). Lessor may, at its option, perform such duty or obligation on Lessee’s behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits

without further notice or demand, and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such Breach: 
 (a) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession to Lessor. In such event
Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i) the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would had been earned after termination
until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee’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 the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and

required under Paragraph 13.1 was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit given to Lessee under the unlawful detainer statute shall also constitute the notice required by Paragraph 13.1. In such case, the applicable
grace period required by Paragraph 13.1 and the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default within the greater of the two such grace periods shall constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach
of this Lease entitling Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute. 
 (b) Continue the Lease and
Lessee’s right to possession and recover the Rent as it becomes due, in which event Lessee may sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitation. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet, and/or the appointment of a receiver to protect the
Lessor’s interests, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee’s right to possession. 
 (c) Pursue any other
remedy now or hereafter available under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located. The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Lessee’s right to possession shall not relieve Lessee
from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee’s occupancy of the Premises. 
 13.3 Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges, or for the giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideration for
Lessee’s entering into this Lease, all of which concessions are hereinafter referred to as “Inducement Provisions”, shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee’s full and faithful performance of all of the terms. covenants and
conditions of this Lease. Upon Breach of this Lease by Lessee, any such Inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or consideration
theretofore abated, given or paid by Lessor under such an Inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of
the Breach which initialed the operation of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically so staled in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance.

 13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent
will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed
upon Lessor by any Lender. Accordingly, if any Rent shall not be received by Lessor within 5 business days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall immediately pay to Lessor a one-time late
change equal to 10 5% of each such overdue amount or $100, whichever is greater. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of such late payment.
Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s Default or Breach with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event
that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for 3 consecutive installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor’s option, become due and payable
quarterly in advance. 
 13.5 Interest. Any monetary payment due Lessor hereunder, other than late charges, not received
by Lessor, when due as to scheduled payments (such as Base Rent) or within 30 days following the date on which it was due for nonscheduled payment, shall bear interest from the date when due, as to scheduled payments, or the 31st day after it was
due as to nonscheduled payments. The interest (“Interest”) charged shall be computed at the rate of 10 5% per annum but shall not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Interest is payable in addition to the
potential late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4. 
 13.6 Breach by Lessor. 

(a) Notice of Breach. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to
perform an obligation required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph, a reasonable time shall in no event be less than 30 days after receipt by Lessor, and any Lender whose name and address shall have been furnished Lessee in
writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its
performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance is commenced within such 30 day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion. 
 (b) Performance by Lessee on Behalf of Lessor. In the event that neither Lessor nor Lender cures said breach within 30 days after receipt of said notice, or if having commenced said cure they do
not diligently pursue it to completion, then Lessee may elect to cure said breach at Lessee’s expense and offset from Rent the actual and reasonable cost to perform such cure, provided however, that such offset shall not exceed an amount equal
to the greater of one month’s Base Rent or the Security Deposit, reserving Lessee’s right to seek reimbursement from Lessor for any such expense in excess of such offset. Lessee shall document the cost of said cure and supply said
documentation to Lessor. 
 14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold
under the threat of the exercise of said power (collectively “Condemnation”), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than
10% of the rentable floor area of the Premises, or more than 25% of Lessee’s Reserved Parking Spaces, if any, are taken by Condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee’s option, to be exercised in writing within 10 days after Lessor shall have

 25. Disclosures
Regarding The Nature of a Real Estate Agency Relationship. 
 (a) When entering into a discussion with a real estate agent
regarding a real estate transaction, a Lessor or Lessee should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation it has with the agent or agents in the transaction. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge being advised by the
Brokers in this transaction, as follows: 
 (i) Lessor’s Agent, A Lessor’s agent under a listing agreement
with the Lessor acts as the agent for the Lessor only. A Lessor’s agent or subagent has the following affirmative obligations: To the Lessor; A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessor.
To the Lessee and the Lessor: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent’s duties, b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith, c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially
affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other
Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. 
 (ii) Lessee’s Agent, An agent can agree to
act as agent for the Lessee only. In these situations, the agent is not the Lessor’s agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered, either in full or in part from the Lessor. An agent acting only for a
Lessee has the following affirmative obligations. To the Lessee; A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessee. To the Lessee and the Lessor; a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and
care in performance of the agent’s duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith c. A duly to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within
the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above. 

(iii) Agent Representing Both Lessor and Lessee. A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate
licenses, can legally be the agent of both the Lessor and the Lessee in a transaction, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Lessor and the Lessee. In a dual agency situation, the agent has the following affirmative obligations to both
the Lessor and the Lessee: a. A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either Lesser or the Lessee, b. Other duties to the Lessor and the Lessee as stated above in subparagraphs (i) or (ii). In
representing both Lessor and Lessee, the agent may not without the express permission of the respective Party, disclose to the other Party that the Lessor will accept rent in an amount less than that indicated in the listing or that the Lessee is
willing to pay a higher rent than that offered. The above duties of the agent in a real estate transaction do not relieve a Lessor or Lessee from the responsibility to protect their own interests Lessor and Lessee should carefully read all
agreements to assure that they adequately express their understanding of the transaction. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advise is desired, consult a competent professional. 

(b) Brokers have no responsibility with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. The Parties agree that no lawsuit or
other legal proceeding involving any breach of duty, error or omission relating to this Lease may be brought against Broker more than one year after the Start Date and that the liability (including court costs and attorneys’ fees), of any
Broker with respect to any such lawsuit and/or legal proceeding shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker’s liability shall not be applicable to any
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker. 
 (c) Lessor and Lessee agree to identify to Brokers as
“Confidential” any communication or information given Brokers that is considered by such Party to be confidential. 
 26. No Right
To Holdover. Lessee has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or termination of this Lease. In the event that Lessee holds over, then the Base Rent shall be increased to 160125%
of the Base Rent applicable immediately preceding the expiration or termination. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as consent by Lessor to any holding over by Lessee. 
 27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity. 

28. Covenants and Conditions: Construction of Agreement. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by
Lessee the parties are both covenants and conditions. In construing this Lease, all headings and titles are for the convenience of the Parties only and shall not be considered a part of this Lease. Whenever required by the context,
the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. This Lease shall not be construed as if prepared by one of the Parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if both Parties had prepared it. 

29. Binding Effect; Choice of Law. This Lease shall be binding upon the Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be
governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located. Any litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be initiated in the county in which the Premises are located.

Devices (in this Lease together referred to as “Lender”) shall have no liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Lessor under this Lease. Any Lender may elect to have this Lease and/or any Option granted hereby
superior to the lien of its Security Device by giving written notice thereof to Lessee, whereupon this Lease and such Options shall be deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative dates of the documentation or recordation
thereof.

another upon the foreclosure or termination of a Security Devise to which this Lease is subordinated (i) Lessee shall, subject to the non-disturbance provisions of Paragraph 30.3, attorn to such new owner, and upon request, enter into a new
lease, containing all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, with such new owner for the remainder of the term hereof, or, at the election of the new owner, this Lease will automatically become a new lease between Lessee and such new owner, and
(ii) Lessor shall thereafter be relieved of any further obligations hereunder and such new owner shall assume all of Lessor’s obligations, except that such new owner shall not: (a) be liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor
or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership: (b) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, (c) be bound by prepayment of more than one month’s rent, or

60 days after the execution of this Lease, Lessor shall, if requested by Lessee, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Non-Disturbance Agreement from the holder of any pre-existing Security Device which is secured by the Premises. In
the event that Lessor is unable to provide the Non Disturbance Agreement within said 60 days, then Lessee may, at Lessee’s option, directly contact Lender and attempt to negotiate for the execution and delivery of a Non-Disturbance Agreement.

 30.4 Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 30 shall be effective without the execution of any
further documents; provided, however, that, upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with a sale, financing or refinancing of the Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute such further writings as may be reasonably required to
separately document any subordination, attornment and/or Non-Disturbance Agreement provided for herein.

Party” shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or Broker of its
claim or defense. The attorneys’ fees award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred. In addition, Lessor shall be entitled to

however, that Lessor may elect to continue any one or all existing subtenancies. Lessor’s failure within 10 days following any such event to elect to the contrary by written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, shall constitute

may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such consent. The failure to specify herein any particular condition to Lessor’s consent shall not preclude the imposition by Lessor at the time of consent of such
further or other conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter for which consent is being given. In the event that either Party disagrees with any determination made by the other hereunder and reasonably requests
the reasons for such determination, the determining party shall furnish its reasons in writing and in reasonable detail within 10 business days following such request.

written notice from Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance is commenced within such 30
day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.

  

					
	 

	  		  	

			
		
		  	RIDER TO PARAGRAPH 28
		
		  	Except for matters which will have an adverse effect on the (a) structural integrity of the Building, (b) the Building plumbing, heating, life safety, ventilating, air

meanings set forth in this Section 1:

 Section 2. Exercise. 
 a) Exercise of
Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may
designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto, the original Warrant certificate and payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price of the shares thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank. 
 b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.056, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”). 

c) Mechanics of Exercise. 

i. Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by
the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to the Holder promptly after the date of exercise. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the first date on which all of the items in Section 2(a) above have been delivered to the
Company. The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been properly exercised, with payment to the Company of the
Exercise Price prior to the issuance of such shares, having been paid. 

  
 2 

 ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall
have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. 

iii. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued
upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an
amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 d) Representation by the Holder;
Restrictions. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to
or for distributing or reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not
registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws and will contain one or more legends relating thereto. The Holder further acknowledges that the Warrant Shares may not be offered or sold except in
compliance with the Company’s right of first refusal contained in the Purchase Agreement and pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in accordance with applicable state securities laws as evidenced by a legal opinion of counsel to the Company to such effect, the substance of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the
Company. 

  
 3 

 e) Call Provision. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 2(e), if (i) the Weighted Average Closing Price for each of 10 consecutive Trading Days (the “Measurement Period”) exceeds one and one-half (1.5) times the Exercise Price (subject to adjustment for forward and
reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, stock dividends and the like after the original Issue Date) and (ii) the Holder is not in possession of any information that constitutes, or might constitute, material non-public information which was
provided by the Company, then the Company may, within 3 Trading Days of the end of such Measurement Period, call for cancellation of all or any portion of this Warrant for which a Notice of Exercise has not yet been delivered (such right, a
“Call”) for consideration equal to $0.001 per Share. To exercise this right, the Company must deliver to the Holder an irrevocable written notice (a “Call Notice”); indicating therein the portion of unexercised
portion of this Warrant to which such notice applies. If the conditions set forth below for such Call are satisfied from the period from the date of the Call Notice through and including the Call Date (as defined below), then any portion of this
Warrant subject to such Call Notice for which a Notice of Exercise shall not have been received by the Call Date will be cancelled at 6:30 p.m. (Los Angeles time) on the tenth Trading Day after the date the Call Notice is received by the Holder
(such date and time, the “Call Date”). Any unexercised portion of this Warrant to which the Call Notice does not pertain will be unaffected by such Call Notice. In furtherance thereof, the Company covenants and agrees that it will
honor all Notices of Exercise with respect to Warrant Shares subject to a Call Notice that are tendered through 6:30 p.m. (Los Angeles time) on the Call Date. The parties agree that any Notice of Exercise delivered following a Call Notice which
calls less than all the Warrants shall first reduce to zero the number of Warrant Shares subject to such Call Notice prior to reducing the remaining Warrant Shares available for purchase under this Warrant. For example, if (A) this Warrant then
permits the Holder to acquire 100 Warrant Shares, (B) a Call Notice pertains to 75 Warrant Shares, and (C) prior to 6:30 p.m. (Los Angeles time) on the Call Date the Holder tenders a Notice of Exercise in respect of 50 Warrant Shares, then
(x) on the Call Date the right under this Warrant to acquire 25 Warrant Shares will be automatically cancelled, (y) the Company, in the time and manner required under this Warrant, will have issued and delivered to the Holder 50 Warrant
Shares in respect of the exercises following receipt of the Call Notice, and (z) the Holder may, until the Termination Date, exercise this Warrant for 25 Warrant Shares (subject to adjustment as herein provided and subject to subsequent Call
Notices). Subject again to the provisions of this Section 2(e), the Company may deliver subsequent Call Notices for any portion of this Warrant for which the Holder shall not have delivered a Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Warrant, the Company may not deliver a Call Notice or require the cancellation of this Warrant (and any such Call Notice shall be void), unless, from the beginning of the Measurement Period through the Call Date,
(1) the Company shall have honored in accordance with the terms of this Warrant all Notices of Exercise delivered by 6:30 p.m. (Los Angeles time) on the Call Date, and (2) the Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on the
Trading Market, and (3) there is a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance of all securities under the Transaction Documents. 

  
 4 

 Section 3. Certain Adjustments. 

a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a
stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of
Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 b) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding. 
 c) Notice to Holder. Whenever the Exercise Price is
adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 Section 4. Transfer of Warrant. 

a) Transferability. This Warrant evidenced hereby may not be pledged, sold, assigned or transferred. 

b) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for
that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or
any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual written notice to the contrary. 

  
 5 

 Section 5. Miscellaneous. 

a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights,
dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(c)(i). 
 b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation
of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if
mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate. 

c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration
of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day. 

d) Authorized Shares. 
 The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the
Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. 
 Except and to the extent as
waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale
of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. 
 Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such
authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof. 
 e) Effect of Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant shall expire upon any (i) consolidation or merger of the Company with another
entity, or any statutory exchange of securities with another entity, whereby the holders of voting capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction hold less than 50% of the voting capital stock following such

  
 6 

 
transaction, (ii) sale or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another entity or (iii) liquidation of the Company. The Company shall give the Holder at least fifteen
(15) days advance notice of the closing of such transaction at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company; provided that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not
affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. 
 f) Governing Law.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement. 

g) Nonwaiver. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder
or the Company shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice Holder’s or the Company’s respective rights, powers or remedies. 
 h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the
Purchase Agreement. 
 i) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and
the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. 

j) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of
the Company and the Holder. 
 k) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall
be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant. 

l) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any
purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

reimburse Secured Party immediately upon demand for any reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, Secured Party may incur while acting as the Company’s attorney-in-fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses are
included in the Obligations. It is further agreed and understood between the parties hereto that such care as Secured Party gives to the safekeeping of its own property of like kind shall constitute reasonable care of the Collateral when in Secured

other person in connection with the Obligations or with respect to the Collateral. 
 6. Litigation and Other Proceedings

 (a) The Company shall have the right and obligation to commence and diligently prosecute such suits, proceedings or other
actions for infringement or other damage, or reexamination or reissue proceedings, or opposition or cancellation proceedings as are reasonable to protect the Collateral. No such suit, proceeding or other actions shall be settled or voluntarily
dismissed, nor shall any party be released or excused of any claims of or liability for infringement, without the prior written consent of Secured Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the right but not the obligation to
bring suit or institute proceedings in the name of the Company or Secured Party to enforce any rights in the Collateral, including any license thereunder, in 

  
 -3-

 
which event the Company shall at the request of Secured Party do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents reasonably required by Secured Party in aid of such enforcement. If
Secured Party elects not to bring suit to enforce any right under the Collateral, including any license thereunder, the Company agrees to use all commercially reasonable measures, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to cause to cease any
infringement of any right under the Collateral by any Person and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing necessary to prevent such infringement. 

7. Default and Remedies.

(b) Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, Secured Party shall have the rights of
a secured creditor under the UCC, including taking possession of the Collateral pursuant to judicial process or, if the taking can be accomplished without a breach of the peace, taking possession of the Collateral without judicial process, all
rights granted by this Security Agreement and by law, including the right to require the Company to make the Collateral available to Secured Party at a place to be designated by Secured Party. Secured Party may immediately, without demand of
performance and without other notice (except as set forth below) or demand whatsoever to the Company, all of which are expressly waived, and without advertisement, sell at public or private sale or otherwise realize upon the whole or from time to
time any part of the Collateral or any interest which the Company may have therein. Notice of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall be given to the Company at least twenty (20) days before the time of any intended public or
private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is made, which the Company hereby agrees shall be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. In furtherance of Secured Party’s rights hereunder, the Company hereby grants to Secured
Party an irrevocable, non-exclusive and assignable license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to Company) to use, license or sublicense the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of
Default on such terms as the Secured Party may deem to be necessary or desirable. Upon taking possession of the Collateral, Secured Party may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral using commercially reasonable means and if
commercially reasonable may do so by public or private proceedings. Secured Party may purchase the Collateral at a public disposition or at a private disposition if the Collateral is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the
subject of widely distributed standard price quotations. 
 (c) Application of Collateral Proceeds. The proceeds and/or
avails of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Secured Party at the time of, or received by Secured Party after, the occurrence of an Event of
Default) shall be paid to and applied as follows: 
 (i) First, to the payment of reasonable costs and expenses,
including all amounts expended to preserve the value of the Collateral, of foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale and the exercise of any other rights or remedies, and of all proper fees, expenses, liability and advances, including reasonable
legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or made hereunder by Secured Party; 
 (ii) Second, to the payment to
Secured Party of the Obligations then owing or unpaid; and 

  
 -4-

 (iii) Third, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to the Company, its successors
and assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Company. Upon such termination Secured Party hereby authorizes the Company to file any UCC termination statements necessary to effect such termination and Secured Party will, at the
Company’s expense, execute and deliver to the Company any additional documents or instruments as Company shall reasonably request to evidence such termination; provided, however, if at any time after payment to Secured Party and
the release of the security interest in the Collateral, any payments to the Secured Party must be disgorged, returned or otherwise paid back by the Secured Party for any reason (including, without limitation, the bankruptcy of the Company), this
Agreement, the security interest in the Collateral, and the relative rights and priorities set forth herein shall be reinstated as to all such payments that are disgorged, returned or otherwise paid back by the Secured Party as though such payments
had not been made. 
 (c) Nonwaiver. No failure or delay on Secured Party’s part in exercising any right hereunder

which rights, powers, and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing Secured Party’s rights hereunder. The Company waives any right to require Secured Party to proceed against any person or
entity or to exhaust any Collateral or to pursue any remedy in Secured Party’s power. 
 (g) Partial Invalidity. If
at any time any provision of this Security Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law or any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Security
Agreement nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 (h) Construction. This Security Agreement is the result of negotiations among, and has been reviewed by, the Company, Secured Party and their respective counsel. Accordingly, this Security
Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against the Company or Secured Party. 
 (i) Entire Agreement. This Security Agreement taken together with the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the documents executed in connection therewith constitute and contain the entire agreement of
the Company and Secured Party and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter hereof.
