 ARTICLE 2. 
 Lease Grant. 

2.1 Landlord hereby leases, demises and lets unto Tenant, and Tenant hereby takes from Landlord, the Premises beginning
on the Commencement Date and ending on the last day of the Lease Term unless sooner terminated as herein provided. 
 ARTICLE
3. 
 Rent. 
 3.1 Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord in monthly installments the “Adjusted Rent”, which is the sum of the monthly Base Rent and the monthly Tax Escrow Payment (as each may vary from time to
time), without deduction or setoff, for each month of the Lease Term. Tenant shall pay the first installment of Adjusted Rent to Landlord contemporaneously with the execution of this Lease. A like monthly installment shall be due and payable without
demand beginning on the first day of the second month after the Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on or before the first day of each succeeding month during the Lease Term. If the Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, the
Adjusted Rent payable on the first day of the second month of the term shall be prorated so that Tenant shall pay a proportionate share of Adjusted Rent based on the days in the prior month which fell on or after the Commencement Date. 

3.2 Base Rent shall be adjusted on the dates set forth in Section 1.1(i) above (i.e., the first day of the
third (3rd) Lease Year and the first day of each second Lease Year thereafter; each such day an “Adjustment Date”), in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 to reflect increases in the cost of living, as measured by
the United States Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index, Unadjusted, All Urban Consumers, All Items, U.S. City Average (1982-84 = 100), or the successor of that index (the “CPI”). If the CPI ceases to
be published, Landlord shall select a substitute index which Landlord reasonably anticipates will yield a result substantially similar to the result produced by the CPI for purposes of the adjustment to be made pursuant to this Section. 

On each Adjustment Date, Landlord shall compare the CPI figure published just prior to the applicable Adjustment Date
(the “Current CPI”) to the CPI figure published just prior to the Commencement 

  
 2 

 
Date (the “Comparative CPI”). If on any Adjustment Date, the Current CPI exceeds the Comparative CPI, then beginning on the applicable Adjustment Date, the monthly Base Rent shall be
increased to equal an amount determined by multiplying the initial Base Rent by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Current CPI and the denominator of which is the Comparative CPI. In no event, however, shall the Base Rent payable for any
month of the Lease Term be less than the Base Rent payable for the immediately preceding calendar month. 

Landlord shall notify Tenant of any adjustment to the Base Rent made by reason of this Section by the applicable
Adjustment Date (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical), and thereafter Tenant shall pay the Base Rent, as so adjusted, until the next Adjustment Date. If Landlord notifies Tenant of a change in the Base Rent after an Adjustment Date,
Tenant shall pay the difference between the Base Rent actually paid prior to such notice and the Base Rent actually due on or after such Adjustment Date, together with Tenant’s next payment of Adjusted Rent. 

3.3 In addition to the Adjusted Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Percentage Rent to the extent that the product of
Tenant’s Gross Sales for any calendar year or partial calendar year during the Lease Term, multiplied by the Rate, exceeds the Base Rent payable by Tenant during such calendar year or partial calendar year. The amount at which Tenant’s
total Gross Sales for any calendar year, when multiplied by the Rate, equals the Base Rent payable by Tenant during the applicable calendar year is referred to herein as the “Breakpoint”. The Percentage Rent shall be payable on a monthly
basis in arrears beginning on the tenth (10th) day of the first month in any calendar year which follows the month during which the Breakpoint occurs. Each monthly payment shall be equal to the product of the Rate multiplied by the Gross Sales
made during the immediately preceding month; provided, however, that with respect to the month during which the Breakpoint occurs, the Percentage Rent payment shall equal the Rate multiplied by the amount of Gross Sales made in such month after the
Breakpoint was met. A final payment of Percentage Rent shall be made within sixty (60) days after the termination of this Lease, based on the final statement of Gross Sales to be provided to Landlord pursuant to Section 4.1 below.

 3.4 The term “Gross Sales” as used herein shall be construed to include the entire amount of the
sales price, whether for cash or otherwise, of all sales of food, beverages, or other merchandise (including gift and merchandise certificates) or services and any other receipts whatsoever from any and all business conducted (including without
limitation, interest, time price differential, finance charges, service charges and credit sales), in or from the Premises, including, but not limited to, mail or telephone orders received or filled at the Premises, deposits not refunded to
purchasers, orders taken, although said orders may be filled elsewhere, sales to employees, sales through vending machines or other devices, and sales by any sublessee, concessionaire or licensee or otherwise in or from the Premises. Each sale upon
installment or credit shall be treated as a sale for the full price in the month during which such sale was made, irrespective of the time when Tenant receives payments from its customer. No deduction shall be allowed for uncollected or
uncollectible credit accounts. Gross Sales shall not include, however, (i) any sums collected and paid out for any sales or direct excise tax imposed by any duly constituted governmental authority, (ii) the amount of returns to shippers or
manufacturers, (iii) the amount of any cash or credit refund made upon any sale where the merchandise sold, or some part thereof, is thereafter returned by the purchaser and accepted by Tenant, or (iv) sales of Tenant’s fixtures.

 3.5 If all or part of any sum which Tenant owes to Landlord hereunder is not received within five
(5) days after the due date thereof, then (without in any way implying Landlord’s consent to such late payment) Tenant, to the extent permitted by law, agrees to pay, in addition to the amount so due, a late payment charge equal to five
percent (5%) of the amount which is overdue, it being understood that said late 

  
 3 

 
payment charge shall be to reimburse Landlord for the additional costs and expenses which Landlord presently expects to incur in connection with the handling and processing of late payments by
Tenant to Landlord. “Further, if Tenant fails to pay all or any part of any sum due hereunder within ten (10) days after the due date thereof, then, in any such event, Tenant shall pay Landlord interest on such overdue amount(s) from the
due date thereof until paid at an annual rate (the “Past Due Rate”) which equals the lesser of (i) eighteen percent (18%) or (ii) the highest rate then permitted by law. 

3.6 Tenant’s covenants and obligations to pay Adjusted Rent, Percentage Rent and any other sum due hereunder
(collectively, the “Rent”) shall be unconditional and independent of any other covenant or condition imposed on either Landlord or Tenant, whether under this Lease, at law or in equity. 

ARTICLE 4. 

Sales Reports and Records. 
 4.1 Beginning on the tenth (10th) day of the second full calendar month of the Lease Term, and continuing on or before the tenth (10th) day of each calendar month thereafter during the Lease
Term and within ten (10) days after termination of this Lease, Tenant shall prepare and deliver to Landlord at Landlord’s Address a statement of Gross Sales made during the preceding calendar month. In addition, within sixty (60) days
after the expiration of each calendar year during the Lease Term and within sixty (60) days after termination of this Lease, Tenant shall prepare and deliver to Landlord at Landlord’s Address a statement of Gross Sales during the preceding
calendar year (or partial calendar year), confirmed as being correct by an officer of Tenant’s general partner, or if Landlord so requests, by an independent certified public accountant. Tenant shall furnish similar statements for its
licensees, concessionaires and subtenants, if any. All such statements shall be in such form as Landlord may require. If any such confirmed statement discloses an error in the calculation of Percentage Rent for any period, an appropriate adjustment
of Percentage Rent shall be made, subject, however, to Landlord’s rights under Section 4.3 below. In addition, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, at Landlord’s Address, copies of all Texas Sales and Use Tax Returns filed by Tenant with
the Office of the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State of Texas within ten (10) days after filing same. 
 4.2 Tenant shall keep in the Premises or at some other location in Austin, Texas which has been approved in writing by Landlord, a permanent, accurate set of books and records of all sales of merchandise
and revenue derived from business in or from the Premises, and all supporting records such as tax reports, banking records, cash register tapes, sales slips and other sales records. All such books and records shall be retained and preserved for at
least twenty-four (24) months after the end of the calendar year to which they relate, and shall be subject to inspection, copying and audit by Landlord and Landlord’s agents at all reasonable times. 

4.3 If Landlord is not satisfied with any monthly or annual statement of Gross Sales submitted by Tenant, Landlord shall
have the right to have its auditors make a special audit of all books and records wherever located, pertaining to sales made in or from the Premises during the period in question If any audited statement is found to be incorrect to an extent of more
than two percent (2%) over the figures submitted by Tenant, Tenant shall pay for such audit. Tenant shall pay promptly to Landlord any deficiency or Landlord shall refund promptly to Tenant any overpayment, as the case may be, which is
established by such audit. 

  
 4 

 ARTICLE 5. 
 Leasehold Improvements. 
 5.1 By execution of this
Lease, Landlord hereby conditionally assigns to Tenant (to be in effect only during the Lease Term and prior to any termination of Tenant’s right of possession by reason of a default), all warranties obtained by Landlord with respect to the
Building. Landlord retains, however, the right to enforce such warranties if Tenant fails to do so. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord has not made, and will not make (whether by Landlord’s delivery of the Building to Tenant or
otherwise) any representations or warranties, express or implied (expressly including, without limitation, warranties of habitability or fitness for a particular purpose) as to the condition of the Premises or the Building or with respect to the
suitability of either for the purpose herein intended. THIS INCLUDES LA TENT OR PATENT DEFECTS IN THE BUILDING OR THE PREMISES, WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY WAIVED BY TENANT. By Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant agrees to accept same upon
delivery in their “AS IS “ condition, and as suitable for the purpose herein intended. Tenant agrees that Tenant shall rely solely upon the construction warranties assigned by Landlord to Tenant with respect to the condition of the
Building, and that Tenant understands that Tenant may not require Landlord to maintain or repair in any manner the Building or the Premises. 
 ARTICLE 6. 
 Use. 

6.1 Tenant shall use the Premises only for the Permitted Use and for no other purpose or purposes without Landlord’s
prior written consent. Tenant shall use in the transaction of business from the Premises the trade name specified in Section 1.1(e) above and no other trade name without Landlord’s prior written consent. Tenant shall not at any time leave
the Premises vacant, but shall in good faith continuously throughout the Lease Term conduct and carry on upon the Premises the type of business for which the Premises are leased. Tenant shall operate its business with a complete menu of all items
offered by other Chuy’s Comida Deluxe locations, and with sufficient foods and beverages of a fresh, first class quality, and in an efficient, high class and reputable manner so as to produce the maximum amount of sales from the Premises

law, ordinance or government regulation. 
 6.2 Tenant shall not occupy or use the Premises, or permit any
portion of the Premises to be occupied or used, for any use or purpose which is unlawful in part or in whole or deemed by Landlord to be disreputable in any manner or extra hazardous on account of fire, nor keep anything upon the Premises nor permit
anything to be done on or around the Premises that will in any way invalidate, or increase the rate of insurance on the Building. 
 6.3 Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or unpleasant odors to emanate from the Premises; nor place or permit any radio, television, loud-speaker or amplifier outside the Building; nor place an
antenna, awning or other projection on the exterior of the Building; nor take any other action which in the exclusive judgment of Landlord would constitute a nuisance or would disturb or endanger neighboring properties; nor do anything which would

 6 

 ARTICLE 8. 
 Alterations. 
 8.1 Tenant shall not make any
alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, except for the installation of unattached, movable trade fixtures which may be installed without drilling, cutting or otherwise defacing the
Building. All alterations, additions, improvements or fixtures (whether temporary or permanent in character) made in or upon the Premises, either by Landlord or Tenant, shall be Landlord’s property on termination of this Lease and shall remain
a part of the Premises without compensation to Tenant, or at Landlord’s election, shall be removed by Tenant. If Tenant is not then in default, all furniture, unattached, movable trade fixtures and equipment installed in the Premises by Tenant

the removal of any alterations, additions, improvements or fixtures, Tenant shall, at its expense, repair and restore any portion of the Premises which is damaged by such removal. All such installations, removals and restorations shall be
accomplished in good, workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Premises or the primary structure or structural qualities of the Building or the plumbing, electrical lines or other utilities. 

8.2 Any construction work done by Tenant upon the Premises shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, in
compliance with all governmental requirements, and the requirements of any contract or deed of trust to which Landlord may be a party. Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless against any loss, liability or damage resulting
from such work. Tenant shall, upon Landlord’s request, furnish bonds or other security satisfactory to Landlord against any such loss, liability or damage. 

8.3 Tenant will not permit any mechanic’s lien or liens to be placed upon the Premises, or any portion thereof,
caused by or resulting from any work performed, materials furnished or obligation incurred by or at the request of Tenant, and in the case of the filing of any such lien, Tenant will immediately pay and discharge the same. If any lien remains
against the Premises for fifteen (15) days, Landlord shall have the right and privilege at Landlord’s option of paying the same or any portion thereof without inquiry as to the validity thereof, and any amounts so paid, including expenses
and interest, shall be so much additional rent hereunder due from Tenant to Landlord and shall be repaid to Landlord (together with interest at the Past Due Rate from the date paid by Landlord) within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt
of a statement from Landlord therefor. 
 ARTICLE 9. 

Landlord’s Right of Access. 
 9.1 Landlord may enter upon the Premises at all reasonable hours (or, if an emergency, at any hour) (a) to inspect same or clean or make repairs or alterations or additions as Landlord may deem
necessary (but without any obligation to do so), (b) to show the Premises to prospective tenants, purchasers or lenders or (c) for any other reasonable purpose; and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Rent by
reason thereof, nor shall such be deemed to be an actual or constructive eviction. 

  
 7 

 ARTICLE 10. 
 Signs; Store fronts. 
 10.1 Without Landlord’s
prior written consent, Tenant shall not (i) make any changes to or paint the store front; (ii) install any exterior lighting, decorations or paintings; or (iii) erect or install any signs, window or door lettering, placards,
decorations or advertising media of any type which can be viewed from the exterior of the Building. All signs, decorations and advertising media shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval as to construction, method of attachment,
size, shape, height, lighting, color and general appearance. All signs shall be kept in good condition and in proper operating order at all times, and shall comply with all ordinances and regulations of the City of Austin and all private restrictive
covenants affecting the Premises. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, shall obtain permits from the City of Austin for all of Tenant’s signs. 
 10.2 Tenant shall have all of Tenant’s signs erected or installed and fully operative on or before the date upon which Tenant commences business from the Premises. Upon vacation of the Premises,
Tenant must remove its signs. If and when Tenant removes or alters its signs (for any reason including vacation), Tenant shall repair, repaint, and/or replace the Building fascia surface where signs are or were attached. 

ARTICLE 11. 

Utilities. 
 11.1 Tenant shall timely pay all charges for electricity, water, gas, telephone service, sewer service and other utilities furnished to the Premises (including without limitation all connection fees) and
promptly shall pay any maintenance charges therefor. 
 11.2 Landlord shall not be liable for any interruption
or failure whatsoever in utility service. 
 ARTICLE 12. 

Indemnity; Insurance. 
 12.1 Landlord shall not be liable or responsible to Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person occasioned by theft, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war,
court order, requisition or order of governmental body or authority, any similar matter, or any other cause whatsoever, except for the negligence or wilful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s duly authorized agents or employees. Landlord shall
not be liable to Tenant, or to Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, customers or invitees and Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all fines, suits, claims, demands, losses, liabilities, actions
and costs (including court costs and attorney’s fees) arising from (a) any injury to person or damage to property caused by any act, omission or neglect of Tenant, Tenant’s agents, servants, employees, customers or invitees,
(b) Tenant’s use of the Premises or the conduct of Tenant’s business or profession, (c) any activity, work, or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises or (d) any breach or default in the
performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease. THIS INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LOSS IN QUESTION ARISES OR IS ALLEGED TO ARISE IN PART FROM ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF
LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES, FROM STRICT LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSONS OR OTHERWISE, BUT IN SUCH EVENT TENANT SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PORTION OF ANY LOSS 

  
 8 

 
WHICH IS HELD TO BE CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY OF LANDLORD OR LANDLORD’S AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES. 

12.2 Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost, may maintain commercial general liability insurance, rent loss insurance and
fire and extended coverage insurance upon the Building in such amounts as Landlord may from time to time determine (“Landlord’s Insurance”). Tenant shall pay the cost of Landlord’s Insurance to Landlord within thirty
(30) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant a statement for same. 
 12.3 Tenant, at Tenant’s sole
expense, shall obtain and maintain during the Lease Term property insurance for full replacement cost (without deduction for depreciation) upon all improvements and fixtures situated in the Premises and not covered by Landlord’s Insurance, and
upon the contents of the Premises, which insurance shall provide protection against perils included within any ISO Special Form property insurance policy written by an admitted insurer in Texas, together with insurance against sprinkler damage (but
Landlord makes no representation that the Building is equipped with a sprinkler system). Tenant expressly agrees that the proceeds of any such insurance shall be used for the repair or replacement of the property damaged or destroyed unless this
Lease terminates as provided herein. 
 12.4 Each party hereto hereby waives any cause of action it might have
against the other party on account of any loss or damage that is insured against under any property insurance policy (to the extent that such loss or damage is recoverable under such insurance policy) that covers the Building, the Premises,
Landlord’s or Tenant’s fixtures, personal property or business and which names Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, as a party insured. Each party hereto agrees that it will provide to the other party evidence that its insurance carrier
has endorsed all applicable policies waiving the carrier’s rights of recovery under subrogation or otherwise against the other party. 
 12.5 Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, maintain a policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance pertaining to Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises hereunder; such insurance
to afford protection with limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for bodily injury, death to any one person or property damage in any one occurrence, with a Two Million Dollar ($2,000,000) annual aggregate.
Additionally, Tenant shall maintain umbrella liability coverage with limits of not less than Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) m excess of the underlying coverages, and liquor liability insurance with limits of not less than
One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for bodily injury, death to any one person or property damage in any one occurrence, and a Two Million Dollar ($2,000,000) annual aggregate. The insurance coverage required under this Article 12 shall
extend to any liability of Tenant arising out of Tenant’s indemnity obligations under this Lease. The adequacy of the coverage afforded by said insurance shall be subject to review by Landlord from time to time, and if Landlord is advised by
Landlord’s insurance agent that a prudent businessman in Travis County, Texas, operating a business similar to that operated by Tenant upon the Premises, would increase the limits of said insurance, Tenant shall to that extent increase the
insurance coverage required by this Section 12.5. In addition to the remedies provided in Article 18 of this Lease, if Tenant fails to maintain the insurance required by this Section, Landlord may, but is not obligated to, obtain such
insurance, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand as additional Rent the premium cost thereof plus interest at the Past Due Rate from the date of payment by Landlord until repaid by Tenant. 

12.6 All policies of insurance which Tenant is required to carry shall be issued in the forms required herein by good and
solvent insurance companies licensed to do business in the State of Texas with a Best’s Rating of “A” or higher and a Financial Size Category of VIII or higher. Each such policy shall be

  
 9 

 
issued in the name of Tenant, but Landlord and any other party in interest designated by Landlord (such as Landlord’s lender, partners, partners’ officers, brokers or property managers)
shall be named as additional insured parties on the liability policies described herein under a Form CG 2026 1185 (or equivalent). Such policies shall be for the mutual and joint benefit and protection of Tenant, Landlord and any such other party in
interest. Executed copies of each policy of commercial general liability insurance shall be delivered to Landlord and such other additional insured parties as Landlord may request prior to the delivery of the Premises to Tenant. Thereafter copies of
each commercial general liability insurance policy shall be so delivered within thirty (30) days before the expiration of each existing policy. If any insurance policy required hereunder shall expire or terminate, a renewal or additional policy
shall be procured and maintained by Tenant in like manner and to like extent. All such policies shall contain a provision that the company writing said policy will give to Landlord and other additional insured parties at least thirty (30) days
notice in writing in advance of any cancellation or lapse. Tenant’s liability policies shall be written as primary policies which do not contribute to and are not in excess of coverage which Landlord may carry. 

ARTICLE 13. 

Fire or Other Casualty. 
 13.1 Tenant immediately shall deliver written notice to Landlord of any damage caused to the Building by fire or other casualty. 

13.2 If the Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty and Landlord does not elect to terminate
this Lease as hereinafter provided, Landlord shall proceed with reasonable diligence and at its sole cost and expense to rebuild and repair the Building, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If the Building shall be destroyed or
materially damaged, then Landlord may elect either to terminate this Lease as hereinafter provided or to proceed to rebuild and repair the Building. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease it shall give written notice of such election to Tenant
within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such casualty, and this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such notice. If Landlord should not elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall proceed with reasonable diligence and at its sole
cost and expense to rebuild and repair the Premises; provided, however, that if any Holder (defined below) of an Encumbrance (defined below) requires that the insurance proceeds be applied under such Encumbrance as a result of any such casualty,
Landlord shall have no obligation to rebuild and this Lease shall terminate upon notice to Tenant. So long as the casualty does not result from any willful or negligent action or inaction of Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees, customers,
contractors, or invitees, Landlord shall allow Tenant a reduction of Base Rent during the time the Building is unfit for occupancy, which reduction shall be based upon the proportion of square feet of the Building unfit for occupancy to the total
square feet in the Building. Any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to the Building shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control. 

13.3 Landlord’s obligation to repair shall be limited to the restoration of the Building, and further shall be
limited to the extent of insurance proceeds available to Landlord for such restoration. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to rebuild, or otherwise be liable for, any damage to Tenant’s fixtures, signs, furnishings, equipment or personal
property within the Building. 
 13.4 Tenant agrees that during any period of reconstruction or repair of the
Building, Tenant will continue the operation of its business within the Building to the extent practicable.

 ARTICLE 14. 
 Condemnation. 
 14.1 If any portion of the Premises
shall be taken or condemned in whole or in part for public purposes, or sold in lieu of condemnation, and following such taking, the remainder of the Premises shall be unsuitable for the conduct of Tenant’s business in Landlord’s
reasonable opinion, either this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, but Tenant shall vacate the Premises and the Rent shall abate during the unexpired portion of the Lease Term, effective as of the date physical possession is taken by the
condemning authority, or Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, may elect to terminate this Lease. 

14.2 If a portion of the Premises shall be taken as aforesaid, but following such taking the remainder of the Premises is
suitable for the conduct of Tenant’s business, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, this Lease shall not terminate. In the event of such a taking, Landlord shall make all necessary repairs or alterations necessary to restore the Building to
an architectural whole. 
 14.3 In the event of any taking of the Premises, all compensation awarded for any
taking (or sale proceeds in lieu thereof) shall be the property of Landlord, and Tenant hereby assigns Tenant’s interest in any such award to Landlord; provided, however, that if a separate award is made to Tenant for loss of business or for
the taking of Tenant’s fixtures, Landlord shall have no interest in that award. 
 ARTICLE 15. 

Assignment and Subletting. 
 15.1 Tenant shall not assign this Lease, nor sublet the Premises or any part thereof, without the prior written consent of Landlord. No assignment or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any
obligations under this Lease. Consent of Landlord to a particular assignment or sublease or other transaction shall not be deemed a consent to any other or subsequent transaction. 

15.2 If Landlord consents to any subletting or assignment by Tenant, and subsequently any category of rent received by
Tenant under any such sublease is in excess of the same category of rent payable to Landlord under this Lease, or any additional consideration is paid to Tenant by the assignee under any such assignment, Landlord may, at its option, either
(1) declare such excess rent under any sublease or such additional consideration for any assignment to be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent hereunder, or (2) cancel this Lease and at Landlord’s option, enter
into a lease directly with such assignee or subtenant, without liability to Tenant. 
 15.3 If Tenant requests
Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease or a sublease of the Premises, Landlord may elect, at Landlord’s sole option, to terminate this Lease, and if Landlord chooses, to enter into a lease directly with the proposed assignee or
subtenant. Landlord shall have thirty (30) days’ after the date Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet the Premises to notify Tenant of Landlord’s election to terminate, and if applicable, to enter
into such a new lease Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord to effect any such new lease. 
 15.4 Landlord shall
have the right to transfer and assign, in whole or in part, all its rights and oblations hereunder and in the Building and Premises, and in such event and upon assumption by the transferee of Landlord’s obligations hereunder (any such
transferee to have the benefit of and be subject to the provisions of this Lease), no further liability or obligation shall thereafter accrue against Landlord 

  
 11 

 
hereunder. Tenant agrees to look solely to such successor in interest to Landlord for the performance of any of Landlord’s obligations hereunder. 

15.5 Any liquidation of Tenant or any change in the ownership interests in Tenant or in the general partner of Tenant
shall constitute an assignment for the purpose of this Lease. Tenant shall not sell, transfer, exchange, distribute or otherwise dispose of more than thirty percent (30%) of its assets (excluding the Lease) without the prior written consent of
Landlord. 
 15.6 Tenant agrees that it shall not place (or permit any employee or agent to place) any signs on
or about the Premises, nor conduct (or permit any employee or agent to conduct) any public advertising which includes any pictures, renderings, sketches or other representations of any kind of the Premises (or a portion thereof) with respect to any
proposed assignment of this Lease or subletting of the Premises or any part thereof, without Landlord’s prior written consent. 
 15.7 Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber (or grant a security interest in) this Lease or any of Tenant’s rights hereunder. 

15.8 Landlord may charge a reasonable fee for processing any request by Tenant for an assignment or sublease of the
Premises. Acceptance of such fee by Landlord shall not be deemed Landlord’s consent to any such action. 

15.9 If Tenant assigns this Lease or sublets the Premises with Landlord’s consent as provided herein, any option
then held by Tenant (such as an option to renew this Lease) shall terminate automatically concurrently with the assignment or sublease. 
 ARTICLE 16. 
 Property Taxes. 

16.1 Tenant shall pay all taxes levied or assessed against all personal property, furniture, fixtures or equipment placed
by Tenant upon the Premises. If any such taxes are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property and if Landlord elects to pay the same or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by inclusion of personal property and
trade fixtures placed by Tenant on the Premises and Landlord elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand that part of such taxes for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder. 

16.2 Tenant shall pay all real property taxes, general and special assessments, license fees and other charges of every
description (the “Taxes”) which during the Lease Term may be levied upon or assessed against the Premises and all interests therein and all improvements and other property thereon, whether belonging to Landlord or Tenant, or to which
either of them may become liable. If, at any time during the Lease Term, the present method of taxation shall be changed so that in lieu of the whole or any part of any taxes, assessments, levies or charges levied, assessed or imposed on the
Premises and the Building, there shall be levied, assessed or imposed on Landlord a capita] levy or other tax directly on the rents received therefrom and/or a franchise tax, assessment, levy or charge measured by or based, in whole or in part, upon
such rents from the Premises, then all such taxes, assessments, levies or charges, or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed included within the term “Taxes” for the purposes of this Article. 

  
 12 

 16.3 As a component of Adjusted Rent, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord
each month an amount (a “Tax Escrow Payment”) equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the Taxes for the applicable calendar year. Tenant expressly authorizes Landlord to use the funds deposited pursuant to this Section to pay such cost. The
initial Tax Escrow Payment is the amount specified in Section 1.1 (m) above. The Tax Escrow Payment shall be based upon Landlord’s estimate of the cost of the Taxes for any calendar year of the Lease Term, and shall be reconciled
annually. If the reconciliation reveals that Tenant’s total Tax Escrow Payments are less than the actual cost of the Taxes, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within ten (10) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant a statement
therefor. If the reconciliation reveals that Tenant’s total Tax Escrow Payments are more than the actual cost of the Taxes, Landlord shall credit the difference to Tenant’s Tax Escrow Payment account. With respect to any partial calendar
year at the beginning or end of the Lease Term, Tenant’s obligation to pay the Taxes shall be limited to the payment of Taxes attributable to the portion of the calendar year which lies within the Lease Term. Landlord shall have no obligation
to pay interest to Tenant for Tax Escrow Payments made by Tenant and Landlord may commingle the funds received by Tenant pursuant to this Section with Landlord’s general funds. Tenant’s obligation to pay the Taxes shall survive the
termination of this Lease, and a final reconciliation of Tenant’s Tax Payments shall be made within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of a tax bill for such final year of this Lease. 

ARTICLE 17. 

Events of Default. 
 17.1 The following events shall be deemed to be events of default by Tenant under this Lease: 
 (a) Tenant shall fail to pay when due any Rent or other sums payable by Tenant hereunder. 
 (b) Tenant shall fail to comply with or observe any other provision of this Lease within fifteen (15) days after written notice by Landlord to Tenant specifying wherein Tenant has failed to comply
with or observe such provision; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant’s obligation is such that more than fifteen (15) days are required for its performance, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall
commence such performance within such fifteen-day period and thereafter diligently prosecute same to completion. 
 (c) Tenant shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors. 
 (d) Any petition shall be filed by or against Tenant under any section or chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or under any similar law or statute of the United States or any State
thereof; or Tenant shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent in proceedings filed thereunder; or Tenant shall admit that it cannot meet its financial obligations as they become due. 

(e) A receiver or trustee shall be appointed for all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant.

 (f) Tenant shall abandon the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, Tenant shall be deemed to
have abandoned the Premises if Tenant fails to utilize the Premises for the purpose permitted herein for five (5) or more consecutive days. 

  
 13 

 (g) Tenant shall remove any movable property or goods from
the Premises to the prejudice of the lessor’s privilege and lien in favor of Landlord. 

(h) The business operated by Tenant shall be closed for failure to pay sales tax required by the State of
Texas, or for any other reason. 
 If Landlord is required to notify Tenant of any default under the provisions of this Lease,
such obligation shall terminate following the second notice of default delivered to Tenant within any twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term. 
 17.2 Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord hereunder unless and until Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty
(30) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord specifying in detail Landlord’s failure; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are appropriate for
performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if Landlord begins performing within said thirty-day period and diligently continues performance through completion. Unless and until Landlord fails to so cure any default after such
notice, Tenant shall not have any remedy or cause of action by reason thereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of §91.004(b) of the Texas Property Code (or any successor thereto), and any other
laws which may grant to Tenant a lien upon any of Landlord’s property or upon any Rent due to Landlord. The obligations of the landlord hereunder will be binding upon the owner of the Premises only during the period of such ownership and not
before or after such time. Upon the transfer by an owner of its interest in the Premises, such owner shall thereupon be released and discharged from all covenants and obligations of the landlord thereafter accruing, (but such covenants and
obligations shall be binding during the Lease Term upon each new owner for the duration of such owner’s ownership). Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Landlord shall have no personal liability hereunder whatsoever for any damages,
consequential or otherwise, and Tenant shall not recover any personal or money judgment against Landlord for any reason. 

ARTICLE 18. 

Remedies. 
 18.1 Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any and all remedies which Landlord then may have hereunder or at law or in equity, including, without
limitation, any one or more of the following, in each case, without any notice or demand whatsoever. 
 (a) Terminate this Lease by notice in writing to Tenant in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any
other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearage in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises. To the extent permitted by Texas law, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord on demand the amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may
suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise, including the amounts described in (b)(i) to (b)(vi) below. 

(b) Enter upon and take possession of the Premises, and relet all or any part of the Premises on such
reasonable terms as Landlord may elect (including, without limitation, such concessions and free rent as Landlord deems necessary or desirable) and receive the rent therefor, and Tenant agrees (i) to pay to Landlord on demand any deficiency
that may 

  
 14 

 
arise by reason of such reletting for the remainder of the Lease Term, and (ii) that Tenant shall not be entitled to any rent or other payments received by Landlord in connection with such
reletting even if such rent or other payments exceed the amounts that otherwise would be payable to Landlord under this Lease. Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in repossessing and reletting the Premises,
including, without limitation, brokers’ commissions, reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the reletting and in connection with Tenant’s default hereunder, expenses of repairing, altering and remodeling the Premises
required by the reletting, and like costs. Alternatively, Landlord may repossess the Premises and sue to recover the following amounts: 
 (i) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination (of possession or of this Lease, as applicable); plus 

(ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned
after such termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss which Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus 

(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease
Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus 
 (iv) any other amount, including court costs, expenses of repossessing the Premises and expenses of restoring the Premises to a good condition of repair, necessary to compensate Landlord for all the
detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; 

(v) at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be
permitted from time to time by applicable law; and 
 (vi) all reasonable attorneys’ fees
incurred by Landlord relating to the default and termination of this Lease plus interest on all sums due Landlord by Tenant at the Past Due Rate. 
 As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is to be computed by allowing interest at the Past Due Rate. 

As used in subparagraph (iii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is to be computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at the time of the award plus one percent (1%). 
 The term “Rent” as used herein shall be deemed to be and to mean the Base Rent, the Tax Escrow Payment, and all other sums required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

 For the purpose of computing the amount of Tenant’s liability under this Section 18.1 for Percentage
Rent after default, the annual Percentage Rent for 

  
 15 

 
which Tenant shall be liable after termination of Tenant’s right to possession shall be the average of the annual Percentage Rent payments owed by Tenant during the lesser of twenty-four
(24) months before such termination or the portion of the Lease Term expired before such termination. Tenant will also owe Percentage Rent for any period between the previous payment of Percentage Rent and the date of termination (unless such
payment previously was made by Tenant); and upon such termination Tenant will be obligated to submit to Landlord a statement showing accurately Gross Sales made since submission of its last previous statement, together with such additional
supporting financial records as Landlord may require. The provisions of this subparagraph relating to Percentage Rent payable by Tenant hereunder are included solely for the purpose of providing for the payment of rent in excess of the Base Rent,
and providing for a method whereby such rent is to be measured, ascertained and paid, and shall be cumulative with and not in limitation of all other remedies provided for Landlord herein. 

(c) Make such payments or enter upon the Premises and perform whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the
terms of this Lease; and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (including reasonable attorney’s fees), and Tenant
further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for, and expressly releases Landlord from, any damages resulting from such actions, expressly including damages arising from Landlord’s negligent acts or omissions. 

18.2 Landlord may alter and/or change all locks or other security devices at the Premises in connection with any entry
upon the Premises by Landlord as permitted in this Article. Landlord may lock out, expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages
therefor, expressly including damages arising from Landlord’s negligent acts or omissions upon the Premises. If Landlord alters or changes any lock or other security device, Landlord shall place a written notice on the main
entrance of the Premises stating the name and location or telephone number of the person from whom the new key, combination or means of access may be obtained. The new key, combination or means of access shall be provided only during Landlord’s
regular business hours and Landlord shall not be required to provide to Tenant such new key, combination or means of access unless and until Tenant has cured all defaults hereunder. The provisions of this Section 18.2 supersede all provisions
of §93.002 of the Texas Property Code (or any successor thereto). No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be
given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such reletting or re-entry or taking possession, Landlord may at any time thereafter terminate this Lease for a previous default. 

18.3 Landlord may collect, from time to time, by suit or otherwise, each installment of rent (or portion thereof as
represents any deficiency after a reletting) as it becomes due hereunder. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any of the other remedies herein provided or any other remedies provided by law, nor shall pursuit of
any remedy herein provided constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord hereunder or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained. Landlord’s
acceptance of rent following an event of default hereunder shall not be construed as Landlord’s waiver of such event of default. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein contained
shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other violation or default. No payment by Tenant or 

  
 16 

 
receipt by Landlord of any amount less than the amounts due by Tenant hereunder shall be deemed to be other than on account of the amounts due by Tenant hereunder, nor shall any endorsement or
statement on any check or document accompanying any payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction. 
 18.4 If
Landlord terminates Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease, Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to relet all or any part of the Premises on such terms as Landlord shall deem reasonable (including, without
limitation, such concessions, leasehold improvements, and free rent as Landlord deems necessary or desirable) by, within sixty (60) days after such termination of possession of the Premises, (i) placing a “For Lease” sign at the
Premises, (ii) either (a) advertising the Premises in commercial real estate marketing publications in Austin, Texas, or (b) entering into a listing agreement with a real estate agent for the lease of the Premises, and
(iii) showing the Premises to prospective tenants who request to see the Premises. Tenant expressly agrees that if Landlord takes the measures set forth in this Section, Landlord shall be deemed to have taking objectively reasonable
measures to relet the Premises. 
 18.5 If Landlord takes possession of the Premises as permitted
herein, then Landlord may keep in place and use all of the furniture, fixtures and equipment at the Premises, including that which is owned by or leased to Tenant at all times prior to any foreclosure thereon by Landlord or repossession thereof by a
lessor thereof or third party having a lien thereon. Landlord also may remove from the Premises (without the necessity of obtaining a distress warrant, writ of sequestration or other legal process) all or any portion of such furniture, fixtures,
equipment and other property located thereon and place same in storage at any premises within Travis County, Texas; and in such event, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such removal and storage and
shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, damage, cost, expense and liability in connection with such removal and storage. Landlord shall also have the right to relinquish possession of all or any portion of such furniture, fixtures,
equipment and other property to any person (“Claimant”) claiming to be entitled to possession thereof who presents to Landlord a copy of any instrument represented to Landlord by Claimant to have been executed by Tenant (or any predecessor
of Tenant) granting Claimant the right under various circumstances to take possession of such furniture, fixtures, equipment or other property, without the necessity on the part of Landlord to inquire into the authenticity of said instrument’s
copy of Tenant’s or Tenant’s predecessor’s signature thereon and without the necessity of Landlord’s making any nature of investigation or inquiry as to the validity of the factual or legal basis upon which Claimant purports to
act. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all cost, expense, loss, damage and liability incident to Landlord’s relinquishment of possession of all or any portion of such furniture, fixtures, equipment or other property to
Claimant, expressly including costs, expenses, loss, damage or liability arising out of Landlord’s negligent acts or omissions. The rights of Landlord herein stated shall be in addition to any and all other rights which Landlord
has or may hereafter have at law or in equity; and Tenant stipulates and agrees that the rights herein granted Landlord are commercially reasonable. 
 ARTICLE 19.  
 Landlord’s Lien. 

19.1 TENANT HEREBY GRANTS TO LANDLORD A FIRST AND PRIOR LIEN AND SECURITY INTEREST ON ALL PROPERTY OF TENANT,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL FIXTURES, MACHINERY, EQUIPMENT, FURNISHINGS, INVENTORY AND OTHER ARTICLES OF PERSONAL PROPERTY, NOW OR HEREAFTER PLACED IN OR UPON THE PREMISES, AND ALSO UPON THE PROCEEDS OF ANY INSURANCE WHICH MAY ACCRUE TO TENANT
BY REASON OF DESTRUCTION OF OR DAMAGE TO ANY SUCH PROPERTY. 

  
 17 

 
WITHOUT LANDLORD’S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT, SUCH PROPERTY SHALL NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE PREMISES AT ANY TIME WHEN A DEFAULT EXISTS UNDER THIS LEASE. THIS LIEN AND SECURITY INTEREST SHALL
SECURE TENANT’S PERFORMANCE HEREUNDER, AND SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO AND CUMULATIVE OF LANDLORD’S LIENS PROVIDED BY LAW. THIS LEASE SHALL CONSTITUTE A SECURITY AGREEMENT UNDER THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SO THAT LANDLORD SHALL HAVE AND MAY
ENFORCE A SECURITY INTEREST ON ALL OF SAID PROPERTY. UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER THIS LEASE, THIS LIEN MAY BE FORECLOSED WITH OR WITHOUT COURT PROCEEDINGS, BY PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SALE, AND LANDLORD SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BECOME
THE PURCHASER UPON BEING THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT SUCH SALE. UPON EXECUTION OF THIS LEASE, AND FROM TIME TO TIME THEREAFTER UPON LANDLORD’S REQUEST, TENANT SHALL EXECUTE AS DEBTOR SUCH FINANCING STATEMENTS OR EXTENSIONS OR CHANGE INSTRUMENTS AS
LANDLORD MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER REQUEST IN ORDER THAT SUCH SECURITY INTEREST OR INTEREST MAY BE AND REMAIN PERFECTED PURSUANT TO SAID CODE. LANDLORD MAY AT ITS ELECTION AT ANY TIME FILE A COPY OF THIS LEASE AS A FINANCING STATEMENT. LANDLORD, AS
SECURED PARTY, SHALL BE ENTITLED TO ALL OF THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFFORDED A SECURED PARTY UNDER SAID UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE, WHICH RIGHTS AND REMEDIES SHALL IN ADDITION TO AND CUMULATIVE OF LANDLORD’S LIENS AND RIGHTS PROVIDED BY LAW OR BY
THE OTHER TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS LEASE. 
 ARTICLE 20. 

Holding Over. 
 20.1 Should Tenant fail to surrender the Premises, or any part thereof, upon the expiration of the Lease Term, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Landlord, such holding over shall constitute and be
construed as a tenancy at will only, at a daily rental equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the sum of (a) one-thirtieth (1/30) of the monthly Base Rent payable for the last month of the Lease Term and (b) one-thirtieth
(1/30) of the Percentage Rent payable for the last month of the Lease Term. All provisions of this Lease except for those pertaining to Base Rent, Percentage Rent and Lease Term shall apply to Tenant’s holdover occupancy. The inclusion of
the preceding sentences shall not be construed as Landlord’s consent for Tenant to hold over. 
 ARTICLE 21.

 Subordination: Lender Provisions. 

21.1 This Lease is and shall be, at the option and upon written declaration of Landlord, subject, subordinate and
inferior to any deeds of trust, mortgages or other instruments of security, as well as to any ground leases, master leases or primary leases (collectively, “Encumbrances”), that now or hereafter cover all or any part of the Premises or any
interest of Landlord therein, and to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to any and all increases, renewals, modifications, extensions and replacements thereof. Landlord hereby expressly reserves the right, at its option and
declaration, to place Encumbrances on and against the Premises and/or any part thereof and/or any interest of Landlord therein, superior in effect to this Lease and the estate created hereby. To further assure the foregoing subordination, Tenant
shall, upon Landlord’s request, together with the request of any mortgagee or beneficiary under any such deed of trust or mortgage, or of any lessor under any such ground lease, master lease or primary lease (collectively, a
“Holder”), execute any instrument (including without limitation an amendment to this Lease that does not 

  
 18 

 
materially and adversely affect Tenant’s rights or duties hereunder) or instruments intended to subordinate this Lease or to evidence the subordination of this Lease to any such Encumbrance.

 21.2 In the event of the enforcement by any Holder of its rights under any Encumbrance, Tenant will, upon
request of any person or party succeeding to the interest of Landlord as a result of such enforcement, attorn to and automatically become the tenant of such successor in interest without change in the terms or other provisions of this Lease, and
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; provided, however, that such successor in interest shall not be bound by (i) any payment of rent or additional rent for more than one month in advance except prepayments in the nature of
security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under this Lease actually delivered to the successor in interest, or (ii) any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the written consent of the Holder or successor in
interest. Upon request by such successor in interest, Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument confirming the attornment herein provided for. At Tenant’s request, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a nondisturbance agreement
from any Holder. 
 21.3 If the Premises or any part thereof is at any time subject to an Encumbrance, this
Lease or any of the Rent is assigned to the Holder thereof, and Tenant is given written notice thereof, including the post office address of such assignee, Tenant shall not exercise any remedy for a default on the part of Landlord without first
giving written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to such Holder, specifying the default in reasonable detail, and affording such Holder a reasonable opportunity to make performance, at its election, for and on behalf of Landlord.

 ARTICLE 22. 
 Brokerage. 
 22.1 Tenant warrants that it has had no
dealings with any broker or agent in connection with the negotiations or execution of this Lease, and Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees or other liability for commissions or other compensations or
charges claimed by any broker or agent claiming the same by, through or under Tenant for this Lease, or any renewals, extensions, amendments, addenda or expansions with respect to this Lease. 

ARTICLE 23. 

Estoppel Certificates. 
 23.1 Tenant shall furnish from time to time when requested by Landlord, a Holder or prospective Holder, or a prospective purchaser of the Premises, a certificate signed by Tenant confirming and containing
such factual certifications and representations deemed appropriate by the party requesting the certificate, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of said proposed certificate from Landlord, return a fully executed copy of said
certificate to Landlord. Tenant’s failure to return a fully executed copy of such certificate to Landlord within the foregoing ten-day period, shall be an event of default under this Lease without the necessity of any further notice from
Landlord, and Landlord immediately may exercise all rights under Article 18 above. 
 ARTICLE 24. 

Notices. 
 24.1 Each provision of this Lease, or of any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, regulations, and other requirements with reference to the sending, mailing or delivery of any notice, or with

  
 19 

 
reference to the making of any payment or request by Tenant or Landlord, shall be deemed to be complied with when and if the following steps are taken: 

(a) All Rent and other payments required to be made by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be payable to,
and must be received by, Landlord on the date due and at Landlord’s Address set forth in Section 1.1 (b) or at such other address as Landlord may specify from time to time by written notice delivered in accordance herewith (following
any such notice, the new address shall be deemed “Landlord’s Address”). 
 (b) Any
notice, request or document (excluding Rent and other payments) permitted or required to be delivered hereunder must be in writing and shall be deemed to be received upon receipt if hand delivered, and whether or not received when deposited in the
United States mail, postage prepaid, certified mail (with or without return receipt requested), addressed to Landlord at Landlord’s Address and addressed to Tenant at Tenant’s Address set forth in Section 1.1(d) or at such other
address as either of said parties have theretofore specified by written notice delivered in accordance herewith; provided, however, that in all events Landlord shall have the right to give Tenant notice at the Premises. 

If and when included within the term “Tenant” as used in this instrument there are more than one person, firm or corporation,
all shall arrange among themselves for their joint execution of such notices specifying some individual at some specific address for the receipt of notices and payments to Tenant. All parties included with term “Tenant” shall be bound by
notices and payments given in accordance with the provisions of this Article to the same effect as if each had received such notice or payment. 
 ARTICLE 25. 
 Miscellaneous 

25.1 If any clause or provision of this Lease is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective
during the Lease Term, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the remainder of this Lease shall not be affected thereby, and it is also the intention of the parties to this Lease that in lieu of each clause or

 Exhibit 10.1 
 CDI CORPORATION 
 EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT

 This EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the 15 day
of February, 2009 between CDI Corporation, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”), and Robert J. Giorgio (“Executive”). 
 BACKGROUND 
 Executive has been employed by the Company or one of
its affiliates since November 10, 1997, and has most recently been employed as President of the Company’s Engineering Solutions division. 
 The Company desires to continue Executive’s employment without interruption and to provide for a consulting arrangement with Executive following the term of Executive’s employment, and Executive
is willing to be so employed by, and to consult for, the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows: 

TERMS 
  

	SECTION 1.	Employment. 

 The
Company hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby accepts such employment and agrees to serve as the President of the Company’s Engineering Solutions division and to render services to the Company and its subsidiaries, divisions and
affiliates that are associated with the Engineering Solutions’ business during the Employment Period set forth in Section 3, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

 

	SECTION 2.	Management. 

 As
President of the Company’s Engineering Solutions division during the Employment Period, Executive shall carry out such duties as are customarily associated with the position of president, which duties shall however in all cases be subject to
policies set by, and at the direction and control of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”). During the Employment Period, Executive shall be afforded the full protection of the
indemnifications generally available to officers under the Company’s bylaws. 

	SECTION 3.	Term. 

 The term of
Executive’s employment under this Agreement (the “Employment Period”) shall commence as of the date of this Agreement as a continuation of his service for the Company and, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 7 of this
Agreement, shall continue through December 31, 2012. Following the Employment Period, Executive will provide services to the Company as a consultant from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2014 (the “Consulting Period”).
This Agreement survives any termination of the Employment and Consulting Periods. 
  

	SECTION 4.	Extent of Services. 

During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote his full time and attention and give his best efforts, skills and abilities
exclusively to the management and operations of the Company’s Engineering Solutions division. Executive shall perform his services hereunder at the Company’s offices in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and at such other places as are required
for the effective management of the Company’s Engineering Solutions division. 
  

	SECTION 5.	Compensation and Benefits. 

 (a) Base Salary. Executive shall receive as compensation for his services an initial salary at the rate of $465,000 per annum payable in equal installments at such intervals as the Company pays its
senior executive officers generally (the “Base Salary”). This Base Salary may be reviewed in future years and may be increased as the Committee deems appropriate. 
 (b) Long Term Incentive Compensation. Provided that Executive remains employed under the terms of this Agreement on each relevant date, Executive shall be entitled to the following equity-based
long term incentive compensation: 
 (i) Deferred Stock Grants. Executive will be granted both time vesting and
performance contingent deferred common stock of the Company (“Deferred Stock”) on the following terms and conditions, provided, as specified above, that Executive remains employed by the Company under the terms of this Agreement on each
relevant date: 
 (A) Time-Vested Deferred Stock. In each of 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 Executive will be granted under
the Company’s 2004 Omnibus Plan, a number of shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock with a dollar value of $77,530, on terms and conditions substantially similar to those set forth in the Time-Vested

  
 – 2
– 

 
Deferred Stock Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. These shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock will be granted on the third business day following the issuance of the CDI Corp. earnings
release for the prior year and will vest, assuming Executive remains employed by the Company on the relevant dates hereunder, as follows: 
 (1) 2009 Grant. Twenty percent (20%) of the 2009 Time-Vested Deferred Stock will vest on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of the 2009 Grant. 

(2) 2010 Grant. Twenty percent (20%) of the 2010 Time-vested Deferred Stock will vest on each of the first three
anniversaries of the 2010 Grant and forty percent (40%) on the fourth anniversary of the grant. 
 (3) 2011 Grant.
Twenty-five percent (25%) of the 2011 Time-Vested Deferred Stock will vest on each of the first two anniversaries of the 2011 Grant and fifty percent (50%) on the third anniversary of such grant. 

(4) 2012 Grant. Thirty-three percent (33%) of the 2012 Time-Vested Deferred Stock will vest on the first anniversary of the
2012 Grant and sixty-seven percent (67%) on the second anniversary of such grant. 
 (B) Performance-Contingent
Deferred Stock. An award of Performance-Contingent Deferred Stock will be granted to Executive for each of 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 under the Company’s 2004 Omnibus Plan, on terms and conditions substantially similar to those set forth in
the Performance-Contingent Deferred Stock Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. In each of 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, the Compensation Committee will determine the degree of Executive’s achievement of the performance targets set forth on
Exhibit C for the prior calendar year and Executive will be granted the number of shares of Performance-Contingent Deferred Stock determined in accordance with the schedule set forth on Exhibit C. (In 2009, Executive will also receive a grant of
stock settled Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) as noted on Exhibit C. These SARs will vest over five years and will be reflected in the Company’s standard Stock Appreciation Rights Agreement.) These shares of Performance-Contingent
Deferred Stock will be granted on the third business day following the issuance of the CDI Corp. earnings release for the prior year. The shares of Performance-Contingent Deferred Stock that are granted in each year will vest 50% at the time they
are granted and 50% one year later. 
 (c) Bonus Awards. Executive shall be eligible to receive bonus compensation during
the Employment Period. The Compensation Committee will establish performance targets and metrics for each year during the Employment 

  
 – 3
– 

 
Period which targets and metrics will be similar to those set for other members of the Company’s senior management team. The bonus payable to Executive for each such year will be determined
based on the degree of Executive’s achievement of these performance targets. The bonus to be paid to Executive upon attaining 100% of the performance targets for a year will be 70% of Executive’s Base Salary for that year or such greater
percentage as the Compensation Committee may determine. The amount of bonus payable for achievement of the performance targets which is other than 100% will be determined from the payout scale applicable to the Company’s executive operations
management personnel. 
 No bonuses will be paid to Executive for a given year if Executive’s employment with the Company
has terminated before the end of June of that year unless the Company terminates Executive without Cause or the Executive terminates for Good Reason. In such case, the Executive shall be entitled to a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination
based on the achievement of goals and the period of Executive’s actual performance. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
payment of all bonuses is subject to the discretion and approval of the Compensation Committee. 
 (d) Employee Benefits.
During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs that are provided from time to time by the Company to the Company’s group of senior officers, other than any bonus plans. For
the first eighteen months of the Consulting Period, the Company will reimburse Employee for the same portion of the insurance premium for Employee’s COBRA insurance coverage as the Company was paying toward the premium for Employee’s
coverage at the expiration of the Employment Period. This reimbursement is contingent upon Employee electing COBRA coverage. 

(e) Withholding. All payments to Executive made pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to such withholding as may be required
by any applicable laws. With respect to any payment of Deferred Stock, the number of shares of common stock of the Company to be delivered to Executive upon vesting of the Deferred Stock (including shares relating to dividends) shall be reduced by
the number of shares having a Fair Market Value equal to all taxes (including, without limitation, federal, state, local or foreign income or payroll taxes) required by law to be withheld in connection with the vesting of the Deferred Stock. The
portion of any shares of common stock of the Company withheld pursuant to the applicable tax laws shall be determined by using the Fair Market Value of CDI Stock on the last trading day immediately prior to vesting.

– 

	SECTION 6.	Expense Reimbursements. 

 During the Employment Period and the Consulting Period, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable and itemized out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive in the ordinary course of the
Company’s business, provided such expenses are properly reported to the Company in accordance with its accounting procedures. Executive shall be reimbursed as soon as practicable. 

 

	SECTION 7.	Termination. 

 (a)
The Employment Period may be terminated by either the Board on behalf of the Company or the Executive as provided in this Section 7(a). In addition to the scheduled expiration of the Employment Period set forth in Section 3, the Employment
Period shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the following: 
 (i) the Executive’s death or Disability;

 (ii) the close of business on the day which is 30 days after delivery by the Company to Executive of written notice of the
Company’s election to terminate Executive’s employment hereunder, for any reason other than termination for cause; or 
 (iii) the close of business on the day which is 30 days after the date on which the Executive shall have delivered to the Company written notice of Executive’s election to terminate Executive’s
employment hereunder. 
 If either subsection (ii) or (iii) above applies, the Company may at its option, require that the
Executive’s employment be terminated at any point within the 30 day notice period selected by the Company, provided that, if subsection (ii) applies, for purposes of all compensation and benefits hereunder, the Executive’s employment
will be deemed to have terminated at the end of the notice period provided under subsection (ii). 
 (b) For purposes of this
Agreement, “Disability” shall have the same meaning as “Total Disability” under the CDI Corporation Long Term Disability Benefits Program, or such other comparable program as may then be in effect that provides long term
disability coverage to the Company’s management employees. 
 (c) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means
any one or more of the following bases for termination of Executive’s employment by the Company: 

  
 – 5
– 

 (i) Executive’s conviction of, or entry of a plea of either guilty or no contest to a
charge of, commission of a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude; 
 (ii) Executive’s failure or refusal to
satisfactorily perform such services as may be reasonably delegated or assigned to Executive, consistent with his position, by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; provided, however, that a termination under this Section 7(c)(ii) shall
not be for Cause unless the Company provides written notice to Executive of its intention to terminate Executive for Cause under this Section 7(c)(ii), and Executive fails, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, to cure the defects
stated in such written notice within ten days after the notice was given to Executive; 
 (iii) Executive’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence in connection with the performance of his duties under this Agreement that materially adversely affects Executive’s ability to perform his duties for the Company or materially adversely affects the Company;

severance specifically provided under Section 7(e) or 7(g) as applicable. The termination of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall not, however, affect any obligations to Executive under any Company benefit plans or other
agreements that, by their terms, survive, or provide for benefits following, Executive’s termination of employment. 
 (e)
In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, the Company shall continue to pay Executive his Base Salary in the same intervals and amounts that were in effect
immediately prior to termination, until the expiration of the Severance Period, as defined below. The Company will also pay $15,000 toward outplacement services for Executive and provide Executive with a neutral reference. The “Severance
Period” shall be the lesser of the remaining Employment Period or 12 months. Notwithstanding the above, no amounts shall be paid or become payable to Executive during the Severance Period until Executive has executed a valid release and waiver
of all claims and potential claims against the Company and other related parties in a form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and

– 

 
any required waiting period under such release and waiver has expired and Executive has not revoked the release during such waiting period.

with the Company is moved outside the Philadelphia metropolitan area, (C) a material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or following a Change in Control (D) Executive’s principal place of employment is relocated by more than 50
miles. Before the Executive terminates for Good Reason, he must notify the Company in writing, within 30 days of the event or occurrence giving rise to “Good Reason,” of his intention to terminate and the Company shall have 15 days after
receiving such written notice to remedy the situation, if possible. Executive’s voluntary termination of his employment for Good Reason will be considered a Retirement for purposes of the Company’s benefit plans. 

(ii) “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d)
and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”)), other than (A) the Company, (B) any “person” who on the date hereof is a director or officer of the Company, (C) any “person” who on the date

Corp.’s then outstanding securities. 
 (iii) Any termination by the Company or by Executive of Executive’s
employment hereunder shall be communicated by written notice. 
 (f) Except as provided in (g) below, any severance
compensation granted in this Section 7 shall be the sole and exclusive compensation or benefit due to Executive upon termination of Executive’s employment. 
 (g) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if (i) Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A for the period in which the
payment or benefits under this Agreement would otherwise commence and (ii) any payment or benefit under this Agreement would otherwise subject Executive to any tax, interest or penalty imposed under Code Section 409A of the Department of
Treasury Regulations or other guidance 

  
 – 7
– 

 
promulgated thereunder, if the payment or benefit would commence within six months of a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, then such payment or benefit shall not
commence until the earlier of (A) the first day which is at least six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service within the meaning of Code Section 409A or (B) the date of Executive’s death.

 (a) Executive represents and warrants that his experience and capabilities are such that the provisions of Section 9 will not prevent him from earning his livelihood, and acknowledges that it would

 3. Vesting. The shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock will vest in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b)(i)(A) of the Employment Agreement. The number of shares that vest will be
reduced for tax withholding in accordance with Section 5 below. A stock certificate representing the number of shares of CDI Stock remaining after the tax withholding will then be delivered to the Executive. If the Executive’s employment
with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the vesting of shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock, none of the unvested shares shall ever vest and such shares shall be forfeited as of the date that Executive's employment with the Company
terminates; provided, however, that if the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates as a result of Death, Disability or Retirement, the shares which are scheduled to vest at the next succeeding anniversary of the Date of Grant will

connection with

except (a) by will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution or (b) with the prior written approval of the Committee, to the spouse or descendant of the Executive or a trust for the benefit of the spouse or descendant. 

7. Stock Ownership Requirements. If the Executive is subject to any stock ownership requirements imposed by the Company, those requirements may
limit the Executive’s ability to sell or otherwise transfer some or all of the shares of CDI Stock acquired by the Executive upon the vesting of the Time-Vested Deferred Stock. 
 8. Cancellation of Time-Vested Deferred Stock and Repayment of Gains. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Committee determines that the Executive has entered into or

(b) require the Executive to pay to the Company an amount equal to the value derived from the CDI Stock issued to the Executive upon the vesting of any Time-Vested Deferred Stock during the one-year period prior to the termination of the
Executive’s employment or engagement with the Company. 
 9. Compliance with Laws. All shares of CDI Stock issued hereunder to the
Executive or his personal representative shall be transferred in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations or listing requirements of any national securities exchange, and the Company may take all actions necessary or appropriate to comply
with such requirements including, without limitation, restricting (by legend or otherwise) such Stock as shall be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, to comply with applicable federal and state securities laws,
including Rule 16b-3 (or any similar rule) of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and postponing the issuance or delivery of any shares of CDI Stock. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be
obligated to issue or deliver any shares of CDI Stock if such action violates any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority or any national securities exchange. The Company may also condition delivery of certificates for
shares of CDI Stock upon the prior receipt from the Executive of any undertakings that it determines are required to ensure that the certificates are being issued in compliance with federal and state securities laws. 

  
 A-3

 10. Rights Prior to Issuance of Certificates. Neither the Executive nor any person to whom the
Executive’s rights shall have passed by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock or any shares of CDI Stock issuable upon vesting of
the Time-Vested Deferred Stock until the date of issuance to the Executive of a certificate for shares of CDI Stock. 
 11. Time-Vested
Deferred Stock Does Not Affect Employment Relationship. This Grant shall not confer upon the Executive any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company, nor interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the
employment of the Executive at any time. 
 12. Adjustment for Capital Changes. The number of shares of Time-Vested Deferred Stock
subject to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or other capital change of the Company.

Executive. 

 CDI CORPORATION 

Amendment to Employment Agreement 
 This is an amendment (“Amendment”) to the Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) entered into as of the 15th day of February, 2009 between CDI Corporation a Pennsylvania corporation
(the “Company”), and Robert J. Giorgio (the “Executive”). This Amendment is effective as of December 16, 2010. 
 For
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by each party, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Section 6 is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: 

SECTION 6. Expense Reimbursements. 
 During the Employment Period and the Consulting Period, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable and itemized out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive in the ordinary course of the
Company’s business, provided such expenses are properly reported to the Company in accordance with its accounting procedures. All reimbursements of expenses under this Agreement shall be made to the Executive as soon as it is administratively
possible following the submission of Executive’s expense reports but no sooner than the date the underlying expense is incurred and no later than December 31 of the year following the year during which the Executive incurred the applicable
cost or expense. Any amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided, during a calendar year shall not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided, during any other calendar
year. The right to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit pursuant to this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. 
 2. Section 7(e) is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: 
 (e) (i) In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason the Company will pay $15,000 toward outplacement services for
Executive and provide Executive with a neutral reference and, provided the conditions set forth in a. and b., below, are satisfied, will also make severance payments to the Executive. The conditions that must be satisfied are the following:

  
 Page 1 of 3

	 	a.	Within fifty (50) days following the date of the employment termination the Executive must execute and return to the Company a valid release and waiver of all
claims and potential claims against the Company and other related parties in a form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 

  

	 	b.	Any period set forth in the release and waiver during which Executive could have revoked the release and waiver must have expired without Executive having exercised
such right of revocation. 

 If the above conditions are satisfied, the Company will begin to make severance
payments to the Executive as of the sixtieth
(60th) day following the date of termination.
Severance will be paid in the same intervals and amounts as Executive’s base salary was being paid immediately prior to the Executive’s employment termination and will continue until the end of the Severance Period. The Severance Period
will be the lesser of (a) the remaining Employment Period plus two months, or (b) twelve months.
