6.CONDITION OF SECOND EXPANSION PREMISES; SECOND EXPANSION IMPROVEMENTS.

6.1Second Expansion Improvements. Landlord, at its sole expense, agrees to make tenant improvements to the Second Expansion Premises consistent with the space plan attached as Exhibit B, using building standard finishes, quantities and materials (the “Second Expansion Improvements”); provided, however, Tenant shall be responsible for all costs of the Second Expansion Improvements that exceed twenty dollars and no cents ($20.00) per rentable square foot of the Second Expansion Premises (which amount is fifty one thousand two hundred eighty dollars and no cents ($51,280.00)) (the “Second Expansion Improvement Allowance”). Landlord’s construction of the Second Expansion Improvements shall be under the same terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit D (Work Letter) to the Original Lease.

Subject to Landlord’s receipt of all required governmental permits, approvals and licenses, Landlord shall proceed with and complete the construction of the Second Expansion Improvements. After the Second Expansion Commencement Date, Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a letter of acceptance of the Second Expansion Premises and satisfactory completion of the Second Expansion Improvements, in the form of Exhibit C attached to this Second Amendment. The failure of Tenant to take possession of the Second Expansion Premises shall not serve to relieve Tenant of its obligations arising on the Second Expansion Commencement Date or delay the payment of rent by Tenant. Delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Second Expansion Premises or completing the Second Expansion Improvements shall not make Landlord liable for any damages arising therefrom.

6.2Tenant Change Orders. If Tenant shall desire any changes to the Second Expansion Improvements, Tenant shall so advise Landlord in writing and Landlord shall determine whether such changes can be made in a reasonable and feasible manner. Any and all costs of reviewing any requested changes, and any and all costs of making any changes to the Second Expansion Improvements that Tenant may request and that Landlord may agree to, shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and if Landlord requests, shall be paid to Landlord upon demand and before execution of the change order.

6.3Tenant’s Acknowledgement. Tenant acknowledges, represents and agrees to the following: (a) Tenant shall be responsible for making its own inspection and investigation of the Second Expansion Premises, (b) Tenant shall be responsible for investigating and establishing the suitability of the Second Expansion Premises for Tenant’s intended use thereof, and (c) except as set forth in this Second Amendment, Tenant is leasing the Second Expansion Premises “AS IS” based on its own inspection and investigation and not in reliance on any statement, representation, inducement or agreement of Landlord. By taking possession of the Second Expansion Premises, Tenant shall be deemed 
2

to have accepted the Second Expansion Premises as being in satisfactory condition and completed in accordance with any requirements of Landlord set forth herein.

7.BASE YEAR. Commencing on January 1, 2022, the Base Year shall be 2022.

8.RENT ABATEMENT. Provided Tenant is not in default under the Lease at such time, Basic Rental hereunder shall be abated for the first full calendar month following the Second Expansion Commencement Date (the “Single Month Rent Abatement”). Landlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to provide to Tenant an allowance equal to the amount of the Single Month Rent Abatement, in the form of a check provided to Tenant on or before the first day of the month in which the Single Month Rent Abatement would have occurred.

9.REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE. Tenant represents that it has not had dealings with any real estate broker, finder, or other person with respect to this Second Amendment, other than Cushman & Wakefield, who represents Landlord (“Broker”).   Landlord shall pay Broker a commission with respect to this Second Amendment pursuant to a separate agreement. If any other person shall assert a claim to a finder’s fee, brokerage commission or other compensation on account of alleged employment as a finder or broker or for performance of services as a finder or broker in connection with this transaction, the party under whom the finder or broker is claiming shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party for, from and against any and all obligations, debts, covenants, conditions, representations, costs, and liabilities and any and all demands, causes of action, and claims, of every type, kind, nature or character, direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, determined or speculative, at law, in equity or otherwise, including attorneys’ fees and litigation and court costs, in connection with such claim or any action or proceeding brought on such claim.

10.CONDITION OF EXISTING PREMISES. Except as set forth in this Second Amendment, Tenant is in possession of and has accepted the Existing Premises and Tenant acknowledges that all work to be performed by Landlord in the Existing Premises as required by the terms of the Lease has been satisfactorily completed.

11.EXISTING CLAIMS. Tenant represents and warrants that there are no existing claims or causes of action against Landlord arising out of the Lease, either currently or that would exist with the giving of notice or with the passage of time, nor are there any existing defenses that Tenant has against the enforcement of the Lease by Landlord.

12.MISCELLANEOUS. Except as set forth in this Second Amendment, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect. This Second Amendment supersedes and replaces all previous terms in the Lease that may conflict with the terms in this Second Amendment. Capitalized terms used in this Second Amendment without definition will have the meaning stated in the Lease. This Second Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original for all purposes, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. A signed copy of this Second Amendment delivered by DocuSign, facsimile or scanned .pdf and emailed signatures, or any combination thereof, shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Second Amendment.   The warranties contained in this Second Amendment are made and given in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other warranties made in the Lease.
