WHEREAS, Lessor will construct an office building containing approximately ~145,800 square feet of Rentable Area, as defined in Section 1.01 of

 WHEREAS, Lessor desires to lease to Lessee and Lessee desires to lease from
Lessor the Demised Premises as set forth below, together with a non-exclusive easement to use all driveways, parking areas, retention surface water, common areas, and other facilities as provided in this
Lease. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises contained herein, Lessor and Lessee covenant and agree as follows:

 ARTICLE I 
 GRANT
AND TERM 
 1.01 Demised Premises. Lessor, for and in consideration of the rents, covenants, agreements and stipulations
hereinafter mentioned, to be paid, kept, and performed by the Lessee, by these presents does lease and rent to the said Lessee, and said Lessee hereby agrees to lease and take upon the terms and conditions which are hereinafter set forth, the
Demised Premises. The Demised Premises are sometimes referred to in this Lease as “Daniel Island Executive Center II.” 
 The Rentable Area of the
Demised Premises shall be determined in accordance with “American National Standard ANSI/BOMA Z65.1—2010: Office Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement” issued by the Building Owners and Managers Association International
(“BOMA Standard”) and shall be certified to such BOMA Standard by Lessor’s architect (the “Architect”). In the event that the Architect’s measurement using the BOMA Standard differs from the rentable area of Premises
set forth in above, the rentable area of the Premises shall be adjusted appropriately and the parties shall execute an amendment to this Lease reflecting said adjustment. 

  
 1 

 1.02 Lessee’s Right to Use of Common Improvements. Lessor hereby grants to Lessee, its
employees, invitees and licensees a non-exclusive easement during the term of the Lease for the use of all sidewalks, driveways, entrance ways and parking areas as shown on the parking layout referred to in
attached Exhibit B, patios, benches and other outdoor amenities, retention ponds, and other facilities, which Lessor may establish which are adjacent to the Demised Premises (hereinafter referred to as the “Common
Improvements”) at no additional charge. Lessee’s use of the Common Improvements shall be subject to reasonable rules and regulations promulgated by Lessor and such use shall be at the sole risk of Lessee. Lessor warrants that there is full
and free legal ingress, egress and access to and from the Common Improvements from a public highway or road. The parking areas shall not be used for the storage of abandoned or defective vehicles or for any other purpose except parking in connection
with Lessee’s permitted use of the Demised Premises. Neither Lessee nor Lessee’s employees, officers, agents, guests, invitees or other persons using the Common Improvements shall have any rights to any reserved parking space or area, and
no special markings or signs may be placed on any parking spaces by Lessee, unless approved in writing by the Lessor. 
 Lessor reserves the right to
further develop the Common Improvements for future tenants, however, Lessor shall be required to replace any parking spaces removed in the development process so that the Lessee has a minimum of 3 parking spaces per 1,000sf of office area (as
defined by the City of Charleston zoning ordinance). 
 1.03 Initial Term. The initial term of this Lease shall be for a period of
fifteen (15) years, commencing upon the date of delivery of the Demised Premises (the “Delivery Date”), which shall be the date on which: (i) Substantial Completion of both the Project (as defined below) and Tenant Improvements
(as defined below) has occurred; and (ii) Lessor has delivered possession of the Demised Premises to Lessee. In the event the Lessor and Lessee enter into a new Lease for development of BF5/”Welcome Center” on the adjacent property to

Delivery Date and shall continue on the first day of each and every month thereafter for the remainder of the Lease term. If the Delivery Date is other than the first day of the month, the first month’s rent and the last month’s rent shall
be prorated based on the actual number of days in such month. 
 Subject to delays caused by Force Majeure, for each day beyond July 1, 2019 that the
Lessor is delayed in delivering the Demised Premises to Lessee, Lessee shall receive a day of free rent starting on the actual Rent Commencement Date. 

  
 2 

 1.05 Acceptance of the Demised Premises. By occupying the Demised Premises, Lessee shall be
deemed to have accepted the condition of the building and other improvements constructed by Lessor as set forth in this Lease, subject to any written punch list of items agreed to between the parties to be completed by Lessor after Lessee’s
occupancy. Lessor makes no representation or warranty as to the condition of the Demised Premises except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Lease. 

1.06 Renewal Option. Provided and upon the condition that the Lessee shall not then be in default under any of the terms of this Lease
Agreement at the time of the exercise of the option and at the commencement date of the renewal term, this Lease may be renewed pursuant to the terms and conditions of Exhibit I, which is attached hereto and made a part hereof. 

ARTICLE II 
 CONSTRUCTION

145,800 square foot office building and related improvements (the “Project”) in substantial accordance with the plans and specifications attached hereto and made a part hereof, labeled Exhibit D (“Project Plans and
Specifications”). Lessor agrees to commence construction of the Project on or about April 1, 2018 (the “Construction Commencement Date”), and to give Lessee at least 30 days’ advance written notice thereof. Lessor agrees to
use its best efforts to complete the Project according to the construction contract on or before July 1, 2019 (the “Scheduled Completion Date”). If performance is delayed for reasons or causes beyond the reasonable control of Lessor
(including, but not limited to, acts of God, weather conditions, labor or material shortages, casualty losses or unforeseen construction defects) the completion date for the Project shall be extended accordingly. Lessee may cancel commencement of
construction of the Project by providing written notice to the Lessor no later than the Construction Commencement Date. Lessee shall pay for all reasonable, documented,
out-of-pocket design, development and planning costs for the Project until the Construction Commencement Date. Lessor and Lessee shall agree in writing to any and all
costs incurred prior to the Construction Commencement Date. Should Lessee proceed with the Project, the Lessee will receive a credit from the Lessor for these design, development and planning costs to the extent they are attributable to the Lessor
in accordance with the terms of this Lease. 
 Should Lessee delay commencement of construction past the Construction Commencement Date, Lessor shall have a
credit of two days extension for the Scheduled Completion Date for every one day of construction delay after the Construction Commencement Date. Should Lessee delay the Construction Commencement Date beyond December 31, 2018, the Lessor may, at
Lessor’s sole option, terminate this Lease. 

  
 3 

 2.02 Tenant Improvements. Lessor agrees to complete or cause to be completed the
interior of the building as described on the attached Exhibit F (“Work Letter”) substantially in accordance with the plans and specifications (hereinafter “Floor Plans and Specifications” or “Tenant
Improvements”) provided by the Lessee to Lessor. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with the Floor Plans and Specifications no later than eight months prior to the Project’s Scheduled Completion Date (the “Plans Due Date”). The
Floor Plans and Specifications shall become a part of this Lease and be labeled as Exhibit E. Lessor agrees to use its best efforts to complete the Tenant Improvements according to the Floor Plans and Specifications on or before the
Scheduled Completion Date. 
 Lessor agrees to pay up to Forty-Five Dollars and 00/100 ($45.00) per square foot of Rentable Area (the “Tenant
Allowance”) for the Tenant Improvements. Tenant Improvements include, but are not limited to, ceiling grid and tile, low pressure duct system to each HVAC box, any additional electric systems or generators in excess of normal office use,
construction of interior walls and floor coverings. Costs for all space planning and construction documents related to the Tenant Improvements are the responsibility of Lessee. Such costs exceeding the Tenant Allowance are hereinafter defined as
“Excess Costs”. 
 2.03 Construction Conditions. Lessee agrees to bear any Excess Costs plus an additional charge of
five percent (5%) of such excess to cover Lessor’s overhead, by payment to Lessor within ten (10) days after demand for such sums. If any act or omission by Lessee (including, without limitation, any delay caused in the delivery of Floor
Plan and Specifications to Lessor or any changes requested therein) increases the cost of labor or materials or the time required for completion of construction, Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor for such labor or material increase at the time the
increase is incurred. If the act or omission by Lessee results in a delay of Lessor’s completion of the Project, then Lessee agrees to commence paying all rent provided for in this Lease from the date that the Project would have been completed
but for the delay or delays caused by Lessee. All amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Section shall be deemed to be Rent (hereinafter defined) for all purposes under this Lease Agreement. 

During construction Lessor agrees to bear the risk of loss to the Tenant Improvements and agrees to maintain builder’s risk insurance coverage. Lessee
agrees not to exercise any control or supervision over the contractors or subcontractors constructing the building, the Tenant Improvements or the Common Improvements. 

2.04 Lessee’s Right to Enter. Lessor agrees that Lessee may, at its option, enter the Project for the limited purposes of
inspecting the Tenant Improvements during the construction, and that Lessee may, in its discretion and at its own cost, make whatever installations thereof as are approved in advance by Lessor which Lessee deems necessary as soon as it can do so
without interfering with the construction of the Project; provided, however, that Lessee shall bear the risk of loss caused by the installation of fixtures prior to completion of construction. Lessee understands that Lessee’s right hereunder
does not allow Lessee the right to commence operations until Lessor has delivered the Demised Premises to Lessee.

that both the Project and Tenant Improvements are Substantially Complete which is defined as (i) the supervising architect certifies both the Project and the Tenant Improvements have been substantially completed; (ii) all Certificates of

amount due which shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder. Acceptance by Lessor of any payment from Lessee hereunder in an amount less than that which is currently due shall in no way affect Lessor’s rights under this Lease Agreement and
shall in no way constitute an accord and satisfaction. 
 ARTICLE IV 

OPERATING EXPENSES 
 4.01
Operating Expense Increases. During the initial term and renewal term of this Lease, the annual rent shall be adjusted for increases in Operating Expenses, (as hereinafter defined), in the following manner: 

  
 5 

 (a) The rent includes an annual expense stop (the “Expense Stop”) of Five and 05/100
Dollars ($5.05) per square foot of the Rentable Area. The first year’s Estimated CAM and Operating Expenses are attached hereto as Exhibit G. Each full twelve-month calendar period from the beginning of the Rent Commencement Date
shall be a “Lease Year.” Commencing with the beginning of the second Lease Year, Lessee shall be responsible for its proportionate share of the cost of Operating Expenses over the Expense Stop amount stated herein, which amount (so
estimated by Lessor) shall be paid by Lessee until such time as actual expenses are available (after the end of the initial Lease Year and successive Lease Years), when the proportionate share shall be adjusted pursuant to this Lease, to reflect the
prior year’s expenses. In no event will Lessor be liable to reimburse Lessee for any expense adjustment to the amount that is less than the amount incurred during the initial Lease Year. Operating Expenses which are not directly attributable to
the Demised Premises shall be prorated by dividing the total number of square feet of Rentable Area in the Demised Premises by the total number of Rentable Area in the Demised Premises plus any future Building constructed by Lessor or its successor
on the real property adjoining the Demised Premises. 
 (b) Lessor agrees to furnish Lessee annual statements prepared by the chief financial
officer or manager of Lessor and certified by such officer, partner or an independent certified public accountant showing Operating Expenses for the Lease Year. If Operating Expenses during the Lease Year are greater than the expense stop amount,
Lessee shall pay its share of the overage to Lessor within thirty (30) days from receipt of such certified statements. As used in this Article, “Operating Expenses” shall include only those items customarily considered in good
accounting practice to be building operating expenses, such as ordinary or extraordinary repairs not covered by insurance, maintenance, cleaning, janitorial services, utilities, supplies, real estate taxes, common area maintenance and assessment
charges, premiums for fire, casualty and liability insurance with respect to the improvements on the Demised Premises, and management fees not in excess of three percent (3%) of gross rent. Lessee is not liable for increases in controllable expenses
over the previous lease year in excess of three percent (3%).“Controllable Expenses” means all Operating Expenses other than taxes, insurance, reasonable third party maintenance and utilities, provided that insurance premiums paid for the
Demised Premises shall not increase by reason of any action or inaction of Landlord that causes such increase. Operating Expenses shall not include any expenses related to financing, depreciation, amortization, costs of a capital nature, costs for
which Lessee or other occupants of the Building are charged other than pursuant to the Operating Expense clauses, costs of procuring lessees, attorneys’ fees, accounting fees, nor administrative salaries and wages except for personnel working
exclusively for the buildings using the Common Improvements. Operating Expenses shall include only those costs actually paid by Lessor. 

(c) Provided Lessee is not in default under the terms of this Lease and subject to the terms hereof, Lessee (or its designated representative),
at its sole expense, shall have the right once per calendar year during the Term to audit Lessor’s books and records relating to the Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding two (2) calendar years. This audit must take place on a
mutually agreeable date during reasonable business hours at Lessor’s office and only after Lessee has given Lessor at 

  
 6 

 
least three (3) days prior written notice of the date and time Lessee desires to commence such audit. If Lessee elects to audit Lessor’s books and records, Lessee shall have the right
to perform an audit of the Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding two (2) calendar years, such audit to be conducted by a reputable accounting firm. If any such audit reveals an error by Lessor resulting in an overcharge
to Lessee, then Lessor shall promptly reimburse Lessee for the amount erroneously charged to Lessee. Likewise, if any such audit reveals an error resulting in Lessee being undercharged, then Lessee shall promptly reimburse Lessor for the amount of
such deficiency. If any audit performed by Lessee reveals that the Operating Expenses in total have been overstated by more than five percent (5%), Lessor shall pay and/or reimburse Lessee for the cost of the audit.

property, leasehold improvements, trade fixtures, inventory or other personal property which shall at any time be situated at the Demised Premises or on the Common Improvements..

 ARTICLE VII 

INSURANCE 
 7.01 Fire
and Extended Coverage Insurance. During the initial term and the renewal term of this Lease, Lessor covenants and agrees to maintain a policy or policies of insurance on the Demised Premises, including Improvements therein, providing
insurance protection against risks of direct physical loss, specifically including protection against damage or destruction by fire, flood and other casualties excluding earthquake coverage, and vandalism coverage. Said insurance coverage shall be
in the amount equal to a minimum of the Lessor’s cost in the building, including the permanent improvements thereon, under a policy or policies issued by responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State of South Carolina.
The Lessee agrees that it will not do or keep anything in or about the Demised Premises or the Common Improvements which will violate the terms of Lessor’s insurance policies or which will prevent the Lessor from procuring such policies without
penalty in companies acceptable to Lessor. 
 7.02 Insurance by Lessee. Lessee covenants and agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to
maintain a policy of insurance on the interior of the Demised Premises and upon its personal property, fixtures, equipment and merchandise therein, providing insurance protection against risks of direct physical loss, specifically including
protection against damage or destruction by fire, flood and other casualties, excluding earthquake, and vandalism insurance. 
 7.03
Lessee’s Liability Insurance. The Lessee agrees to indemnify, hold and save the harmless, and to protect and defend Lessor, at all times during the initial term and renewal term of this Lease, from and against any losses, damages,
costs, or expenses on account of any claim for injury by a third party, including death or damage either to person or property sustained by the Lessor which arises out of the use and occupancy of the Demised Premises or the Common Improvements by
the Lessee, its agents, employees, invitees, and customers (except those resulting from Lessor’s gross negligence or willful acts). Lessee agrees to give Lessor prompt written notice of all claims made against the Lessee that come within the
scope of the indemnification in this Section and agrees not settle any such claim without the Lessor’s written consent. In connection herewith, Lessee shall, at its own expense, provide and keep in force, for the benefit and protection of the
Lessor and Lessee as their respective interests may appear, and with the Lessor as an additional insured, a general liability policy or policies in standard form issued by reliable companies approved by Lessor and licensed to do business in the
State of South Carolina, with minimum limits of $2,000,000.00 combined single limits coverage. A renewal policy shall be obtained not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any policy and a certificate of the insurer evidencing such
insurance, with proof of payment of premium, shall be provided to Lessor. 

  
 9 

 7.04 Subrogation. All insurance policies required by this Article shall contain a waiver of
any right of subrogation by any such insurer against either party. Each of the parties hereby waives any rights it may have against the other party on account of any loss or damage to its property (including the Common Improvements and its contents)
which arises from any risk ordinarily covered by fire and extended coverage insurance or any other insurance required to be carried hereunder, whether or not such other party may have been negligent or at fault in causing such loss or damage. Each
party shall obtain a clause or endorsement in the policies of such insurance, which either party obtains in connection with the Common Improvements to the effect that the insurer waives, or shall otherwise be denied, the right of subrogation against
the other party for loss covered by such insurance. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

REPAIRS 
 8.01
Repairs. All repairs, both ordinary and extraordinary, to the Demised Premises, excluding the Common Improvements, including but not limited to, the plumbing, heating, air-conditioning, electric
wiring, and lighting apparatus, necessary to keep them in proper order shall be made by Lessee at Lessee’s expense. Any repairs, changes, or additions to the Common Improvements which may be required in order to bring the Common Improvements
into compliance with any Federal, State, or municipal law, statute, ordinance, decision, rule or regulation shall be made by Lessor at Lessor’s expense. 

8.02 Alterations and Remodeling. After the commencement of initial term of this Lease, with the prior written consent of the Lessor,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Lessee may, at Lessee’s expense, make such alterations, additions, decorations and changes to the interior of the building and exterior lighting of the Common Improvements as it deems necessary for its
purposes provided that the value of the buildings and improvements are not thereby diminished subject to the following conditions: 
 (a)
That if any such work increases any insurance premiums, taxes, or other costs or expenses relating to the Common Improvements, Lessee shall timely and fully pay and satisfy same. 

(b) That no casualty or mechanics or materialmen’s claims or liens shall be created upon the Common Improvements or elsewhere by reason of
or with respect to the work or a condition of the Common Improvements thereafter resulting from said work; and 
 (c) That upon expiration or
any earlier termination of the Lease Agreement, Lessee shall, at its cost and expense, upon the election of Lessor, promptly remove the alterations and repairs and restore the Demised Premises to the condition existing prior to installation of the
same. Any and all alterations, additions and improvements to the Common Improvements (other than inventory and trade fixtures) installed by or on behalf of Lessee shall immediately, at Lessor’s option, become part of the Common Improvements and
at the expiration or other termination of this Lease Agreement shall be surrendered to the Lessor.

of the nature herein referred to and to postpone Lessee’s compliance with the same, provided such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted by and at the expense of Lessee so that Lessor shall not thereby suffer any civil liability,
or be subjected to any criminal prosecution, penalties, or sanctions and that Lessee shall properly protect and save harmless Lessor against any liability and claims for any such non-compliance or postponement

a condition of this Lease Agreement that Lessor has a good and marketable title to the Common Improvements free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except those to which Lessee has specifically consented in writing; that Lessor has the right to
lease the same; that Lessor warrants and will defend Common Improvements unto Lessee against the lawful claims of all persons whomsoever; that so long as the rents are being paid in the manner herein provided and the covenants, conditions and

Lessor’s Environmental Warranty. Prior to the signing of this Lease Agreement, Lessor has not caused or permitted persons with whom Lessor has contracted to cause (a) any violation of any federal, state or local law,
ordinance, or regulation enacted related to environmental conditions on or about the Common Improvements, including, but not limited to soil and groundwater conditions, nor (b) engaged in the use, generation, release, manufacture, production,
processing, storage, or disposal of any Hazardous Substance (as hereinafter defined) on, under, or about the Common Improvements. The term “Hazardous Substance” as used herein shall include, without limitation, flammable, explosives,
radioactive materials, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB’s), chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity, pollutants, contaminants, hazardous wastes, toxic products, and substances declared to be hazardous or toxic under any
law or regulation promulgated by any governmental authority. 
 11.02 Hazardous Waste. Lessee covenants and warrants that it will not
knowingly cause or permit to be brought upon the Common Improvements or installed in any buildings or improvements thereon any asbestos in any form, urea formaldehyde insulation, transformers or any other equipment which contain dielectric fluid
containing levels of polychlorinated biphenyl in excess of fifty parts per million of any other chemical material or substance which is regulated as toxic or hazardous or exposure to which is prohibited, limited or regulated by any federal or state
authority or which may or could pose a hazard to the health or safety of the occupants of the Common Improvements or the owners of the property adjacent to the Common Improvements . The Lessee shall not install, store, use, treat, transport or
dispose of on the Common Improvements any regulated hazardous or toxic materials or waste, and in the event of any such installation, storage, use, treatment, presence, transportation or disposal during the term of this Lease Agreement, the Lessee
shall remove any such hazardous materials or waste and comply with the regulations and orders of any authority having jurisdiction of the same, all at the expense of the Lessee, including necessary removal, cleanup or other remediation, and if
Lessee shall fail to proceed with such removal or comply with such regulations or orders, the Lessor may declare this Lease Agreement in default. Lessee shall indemnify Lessor and hold Lessor harmless from any and all losses, damages or expenses
which may be incurred by Lessor for the presence or removal from the Common Improvements of any such hazardous materials or waste caused by any activity of Lessee on the Common Improvements and the liability of the Lessee to Lessor under the

 ARTICLE XII 

SIGNAGE 
 12.01 Lessee may
after Lessor’s approval, at Lessee’s expense, furnish and install an identification sign in front of or attached to the Demised Premises, which bears the name of Lessee’s business and/or logo provided, however, such signs shall meet
the standards (i.e., color and quality) of the Daniel Island Office Park Guidelines. 
 ARTICLE XIII 

DESTRUCTION 
 13.01 If,
during the initial term or renewal term of this Lease, the Common Improvements and/or Demised Premises are: 
 (a) destroyed by fire or any
other casualty whatsoever, or; 
 (b) partially destroyed so as to render the Demised Premises unfit for occupancy or Lessee’s
reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or conduct of Lessee’s usual business therein, or; 
 (c) destroyed by a casualty which is not
covered by Lessor’s insurance, or if such casualty is covered by Lessor’s insurance but a mortgagee of Lessor or other party entitled to insurance proceeds fails to make such proceeds available to Lessor in an amount sufficient for
restoration of the Demised Premises and/or Common Improvements (provided, however, that Lessor agrees to make a good faith effort to have such mortgagee make such proceeds available for full restoration or rebuilding); 

then Lessor shall make its reasonable determination as to the length of time to complete such repairs within thirty (30) days of the casualty and shall
notify Lessee of same as provided herein. In the event restoration is reasonably estimated by Lessor to take more than three hundred (300) days from the date of the destruction or casualty, or in the event the above described destruction or
casualty should occur within the last two (2) years of the Lease, then Lessor or Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease Agreement. In the event that the Lease Agreement is terminated in accordance with the foregoing provisions,
Lessee shall surrender within thirty (30) days of notification the Demised Premises and Common Improvements and interest therein, and Lessee shall pay rent only to the time of such destruction or casualty. 

  
 13 

 In case of the total or partial damage or destruction to the Demised Premises and/or Common
Improvements, Lessor shall re-enter and repossess the same or any part thereof for the purpose of removing or repairing the loss or damage and shall proceed with due diligence to the repair of same unless,
under the foregoing provisions of this Article XIII, the Lease Agreement shall have been terminated. The Rent during the period of such repairs shall be wholly abated if all of the Demised Premises and/or Common Improvements have been thus
repossessed by Lessor or otherwise made unavailable to Lessee for Lessee’s reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or Lessee’s conduct of Lessee’s usual business therein for the purpose of repair for the period that Lessee has been
dispossessed; and if only a portion of the Demised Premises and/or Common Improvements is thus repossessed or otherwise unavailable to Lessee for Lessee’s reasonable beneficial use and enjoyment or Lessee’s conduct of Lessee’s usual
business therein, the Rent shall be abated for such dispossession or unavailability pro rata, based on the portion of the Demised Premises and/or Common Improvements thus repossessed or rendered unavailable during the period of repossession or
unavailability. Any Rent abatement under this Article XIII shall commence as of the date of the destruction. 
 Lessor shall not be required
to rebuild, repair, or replace any part of the personal property, furniture, equipment, fixtures, and other improvements which may have been placed by Lessee or other lessees within the Demised Premises or Common Improvements, unless the damage
thereto is caused by the sole negligence or willful act or omission or default hereunder of Lessor or Lessor’s agents, employees, subtenants, assignees, or independent contractors. Any insurance which may be carried by Lessor or Lessee for
damage to the Demised Premises or to any personal property, fixtures, and related items therein shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control; provided, however, Lessor shall carry insurance for the
benefit of Lessor and Lessee sufficient to cover the full replacement cost of the shell of the Demised Premises and an amount equal to the initial Tenant Improvements, and other improvements that Lessor shall have liability therefore under Article
VII. 
 Should the Demised Premises or the Common Improvements be destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty that is due to the
negligence or willful or wanton conduct of Lessee or Lessee’s agents, employees, subtenants, assignees or independent contractors, Lessor may repair such damage, and there shall be no apportionment or abatement of Rent. 

ARTICLE XIV 

CONDEMNATION 
 14.01 Lessor,
within ten (10) days of Lessor’s receipt of any notice of the institution of condemnation proceedings or threat thereof with respect to all or any part of the Common Improvements, shall give written notice to Lessee of the same. Lessee
shall have the option to terminate this Lease within sixty (60) days after receipt of said notice from the Lessor should such condemnation affect twenty percent (20%) or more of the Demised Premises and Lessee reasonably determines that such
condemnation will interfere with Lessee’s ability to continue its business operations in substantially the 

  
 14 

 
same manner as existed prior to the condemnation or deed in lieu thereof. Lessee’s obligation under this Lease including but not limited to Lessee’s obligation to pay rent hereunder,
shall cease upon Lessee’s termination of this Lease pursuant to the terms of this Section; however, the Lessee shall be obligated to pay all rent due on or before the date of termination down through the date Lessee surrenders possession of the
Demised Premises to the Lessor. Lessor shall be entitled to the entire condemnation award based on the value of the real property. Lessee may assert a separate claim to the condemning authority for its damages. 

ARTICLE XV 
 DEFAULT

 15.01 Default by Lessee. The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a default under this Lease
Agreement: 
 (a) Lessee fails to pay any installment of rent within ten (10) business days after such installment is due, and fails to
cure such delinquency within five (5) business days after actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor: 
 (b) Lessee
fails to pay any additional item or any other charge or sum required to be paid by Lessee hereunder within thirty (30) days after actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor; 

(c) Lessee fails to perform or commence in good faith and proceed with reasonable diligence to perform any of its covenants under this Lease
Agreement within thirty (30) days after actual receipt of written notice thereof by Lessee from Lessor. 
 15.02 Lessor’s
Remedies. In the event Lessee is in default pursuant to the conditions set forth in Section 15.01 above, Lessor, during the continuation of such default, shall have the option of pursuing either of the following remedies: 

(a) Lessor may terminate this Lease Agreement, in which event Lessee immediately shall surrender possession of the Demised Premises. All
obligations of Lessee under the Lease Agreement, including Lessee’s obligation to pay rent under the Lease Agreement, shall cease upon the date of termination except for Lessee’s obligation to pay rent due and outstanding as of the date of
termination. 
 (b) Lessor, without terminating the Lease Agreement, may require Lessee to remove all property from the Demised Premises
within thirty (30) days so that Lessor may re-enter and re-let the premises to minimize Lessor’s damages. In the event Lessee shall fail to remove all property
within thirty (30) days after said demand, Lessor shall be entitled to remove Lessee’s property to a storage facility, and all reasonable costs of such removal and storage shall be deemed additional rent under the Lease Agreement for which
Lessee is responsible for payment. Lessor may enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease Agreement, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder, provided that Lessor shall have an affirmative obligation to use
Lessor’s best efforts to re-let the Demised Premises and to mitigate its damages under the Lease Agreement. 

  
 15 

 (c) If this Lease Agreement is terminated as set forth, Lessor may
re-let the Demised Premises (or any portion thereof) for such rent and upon such terms as Lessor is able to obtain (which may be for lower or higher rent, and for a shorter or longer term), and Lessee shall be
liable for all damages sustained by Lessor, including but not limited to any deficiency in Rent for the duration of the Lease Term (or for the period of time which would have remained in the Lease Term in the absence of any termination, leasing
fees, attorneys’ fees, other marketing and collection costs and all expenses of placing the Demised Premises in first class rentable condition). 

(d) Nothing contained herein diminishes any right Lessor may have under South Carolina law to sue Lessee for damages in the event of any
default by Lessee under this Lease Agreement, or from pursuing any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity. 
 ARTICLE XVI

 LESSEE’S RIGHT TO SUBLEASE AND ASSIGN 

16.01 Lessee may not sublet the Demised Premises or assign this Lease Agreement without the prior written consent of the Lessor, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed and if such consent is granted, Lessee shall remain liable to Lessor for the faithful performance of all of the covenants and conditions, including rental payment, required to be kept and performed under the terms of
this Lease Agreement. Any assignment by operation of law as a result of a corporate merger or re-organization shall not require the previous written consent of Lessor. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Lease Agreement to the contrary and provided such transfer does not change the use as allowed in Paragraph 9.01, Lessee shall have the right, without obtaining the consent of Lessor, to assign, sublet or otherwise transfer Lessee’s
interest in or under this Lease Agreement to Lessee’s parent corporation, any subsidiary of Lessee or to any other affiliate of Lessee (collectively, “Permitted Transfer”). In addition, Lessee shall not be required to comply with any
other requirements under this Lease Agreement which relates to an assignment, subletting or other transfer of Lessee’s interest hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any transfer fee) if such assignment, subletting or other
transfer is a Permitted Transfer. However, no Permitted Transfer shall relieve Lessee from any obligations under this Lease Agreement. 
 16.02
Violation. Any violation of any provision of this Lease Agreement, whether by act or omission, by any assignee or subtenant of Lessee, shall be deemed a violation of such provision by the Lessee, it being the intention and meaning of
the parties hereto that the Lessee shall assume and be liable to the Lessor for any and all acts and omissions of any and all assignees or subtenants of Lessee. If the Demised Premises or any part thereof is sublet or occupied by any person other
than the Lessee, Lessor, in the event of Lessee’s default, may and is hereby empowered to collect rent from the subtenant or occupant; the Lessor may apply the net amount received by it to the rent herein reserved and no such collection shall
be deemed a release of the Lessee from the further performance of the covenants herein contained. 

  
 16 

 ARTICLE XVII 

LESSOR’S RIGHT TO MORTGAGE AND SELL 

17.01 Estoppel Certificate. Within five (5) days after written request therefor by either Lessor or Lessee to the other, or in the
event that upon any sale, assignment, mortgage or hypothecation of the Demised Premises or a leasehold loan by Lessee of its leasehold estate herein, an estoppel statement shall be required from Lessor or Lessee. Lessor and Lessee agree to deliver
to each other, in recordable form, a certificate to any proposed mortgagee or purchaser, certifying that this Lease Agreement is in full force and effect, that there are no defenses thereto, or stating those claimed by Lessor or Lessee, and as to
such other matters as may be reasonably requested. 
 17.02 Subordination and Attornment. Upon Lessor’s request, during the term
of this Lease Agreement, Lessee shall execute a subordination agreement in recordable form wherein Lessee shall agree that this Lease Agreement is and shall be subordinate to the lien of any mortgages in any amount or amounts on all or any part of
the land or buildings comprising the Property, or on or against Lessor’s interest or estate therein; provided that such subordination agreement shall recite that the subordination of Lessee’s interests pursuant thereto are subject to the
agreement by the mortgagee named in any such mortgage and to any purchaser at a sale pursuant to foreclosure thereof, to recognize the Lease Agreement of Lessee in the event of foreclosure of any such mortgage if Lessee is not in default under the
Lease Agreement. Lessee covenants and agrees to execute and deliver upon demand such further instruments evidencing such subordination of this Lease Agreement to the lien of any such mortgage as may be required by the Lessor within ten
(10) days of demand therefor. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove contained, in the event the holder of any such mortgage shall at any time elect to have this Lease Agreement constitute a prior or superior lien to its mortgage, then and in
such event upon any such mortgage holder notifying Lessee to that effect, this Lease Agreement shall be deemed prior and superior in lien to such mortgage irrespective of whether this Lease Agreement is dated prior to or subsequent to the date of
such mortgage or lease. 
 If Lessor enters into one or more mortgages and Lessee is advised in writing of the name and address of the mortgagee under such
mortgage, then this Lease Agreement shall not be terminated or canceled on account of any default by the Lessor in the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof on its part contained, until Lessee shall have given written
notice of such default to such mortgagee, specifying the default, in which event such mortgagee shall have the right to cure Lessor’s default as otherwise provided herein and which cure shall be accepted by Lessee. 

  
 17 

 Lessee shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of or in the event of sale under any
mortgage made by the Lessor covering the Premises, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure of sale and recognize such purchaser as the Lessor under this Lease Agreement. 

As a condition of Lessee’s obligations under the Lease, Lessor shall deliver a subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreement in a form satisfactory to Lessor’s mortgage lender and shall cause Lessor’s mortgage lender to execute said agreement and thereafter record it at the Berkeley County R.O.D. Office. 

17.03 Transfer of Lessor’s Interest. Lessor shall have the right to convey, transfer or assign, by sale or otherwise, all or any
part of its interest in this Lease Agreement or the Property at any time and from time to time and to any person, subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease Agreement. All covenants and obligations of Lessor under this Lease Agreement shall
not cease upon the execution of such conveyance, transfer or assignment, but such covenants and obligations shall run with the land and shall be binding upon any subsequent owner thereof. 

17.04 Personal Guarantee Covenant. Notwithstanding anything else in this Lease, Lessor and its principals currently personally
guaranteeing any financing on the Project or other property leased by Lessor or any of its affiliates to Lessee, covenant that they will keep those personal guarantees in place and effective at least through December 31, 2018. Any attempt by
Lessor or such principals to terminate or modify those personal guarantees will be void ab initio. 
 ARTICLE XVIII 

SURRENDER OF PREMISES 
 18.01
Trade Fixtures. All equipment and every other item of property not permanently attached to the Demised Premises and not paid for by Lessor, and any of such items leased by Lessee under bona fide leases from third party owners, are to
remain and be the property of Lessee and Lessee is to have the right and privilege of removing any and all such property and equipment at any time during the continuance of this Lease Agreement or any extensions hereof and within thirty
(30) days thereafter. In the event the aforesaid equipment is not removed by Lessee within said thirty (30) day period, title thereto shall automatically pass to and vest in Lessor. If said equipment is removed, Lessee shall restore the
Demised Premises to their condition prior to the removal of such property. It is further understood and agreed that the buildings and structures installed on the Property by Lessor, may not be removed by Lessee at the termination of this Lease
Agreement. 
 18.02 Surrender. The Lessee shall on the expiration or the sooner termination of the Lease Agreement surrender to Lessor
the Property, including all buildings, replacements, changes, additions, and improvements constructed or placed by the Lessee thereon, except for all moveable trade fixtures, equipment, and personal property belonging to the Lessee, broom-clean,
free of sub-tenancies, and in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted.

	STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA	 	 MEMORANDUM OF LEASE

	  
 COUNTY OF BERKELEY COUNTY
	 

 THIS MEMORANDUM OF LEASE (“Memorandum”) is of that certain Lease Agreement dated December
    , 2016, including all Exhibits attached thereto (collectively, “Lease”), by and between DIEC II, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company (“Lessor”) and Benefitfocus.com, Inc., a South Carolina
corporation (“Lessee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Lessor leases to Lessee the demised
premises located in Berkeley County, South Carolina, and as more particularity shown on Exhibit A incorporated herein by reference (“Demised Premises”) for a term beginning on the Lease Commencement Date and continuing for a period
of fifteen (15) years from such date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Lease. In addition, Lessee has five (5) 1-year periods to extend the term of the Lease. The provisions
set forth in said unrecorded Lease, together with all the Exhibits attached thereto, and any amendments entered into by the parties subsequent to this Memorandum between Lessor and Lessee are hereby incorporated into this Memorandum by reference.

 Depending on the requirements of the then beneficiary, this Lease and Lessee’s rights under the Lease will either be subordinate or
superior to the lien of the mortgage (“Mortgage”) which is a lien against the building in which the Demised Premises are located whether the Mortgage is currently a lien on the Demised Premises or subsequently becomes a lien on the Demised
Premises. No further agreements or documents shall be required to render the Lease and/or the Lessee’s rights subordinate or superior to the Mortgage. 

This Memorandum is not a complete summary of the Lease, and the provisions contained herein shall not be construed to interpret the terms
thereof. In the event of a conflict between this Memorandum and the unrecorded Lease, said Lease shall control. Upon the expiration of the stated Lease term, this Memorandum shall automatically terminate.

 Upon a termination of the Lease, for whatever reason, Lessor shall be entitled to record a notice
of that termination on its own signature. Lessor shall be deemed to be Lessee’s attorney-in-fact (which power of attorney shall be irrevocable and coupled with an
interest) for purposes of executing and recording that termination notice. 
 (Signature pages follow) 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessee has executed this Memorandum as of the
         day of                     , 20    .

(Tenant Improvements) 
 WORK
LETTER 
 This Exhibit F is attached to and made a part of the Lease dated December        , 2016, by and
between DIEC II, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company (“Lessor”) and Benefitfocus.com, Inc., a South Carolina corporation (“Lessee”) for the Property commonly known as the Daniel Island Executive
Center II, located in the City of Charleston, State of South Carolina. Capitalized terms set out herein shall have the same meaning as set out in the Lease, unless otherwise defined herein. 

This Exhibit F is subject to all Provisions set forth in Section 2.03 of the Lease. 

1. This Work Letter shall set forth the obligations of Lessor and Lessee with respect to the preparation of the Demised Premises for
Lessee’s occupancy. All improvements described in this Work Letter to be constructed in and upon the Demised Premises by Lessor are hereinafter referred to as the “Tenant Improvements.” It is agreed that construction of the Tenant
Improvements will be completed at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, subject to the Allowance (as defined below). Lessor shall enter into a direct contract for the Tenant Improvements with a general contractor selected by Lessor. In addition,
Lessee shall have the right to select and/or approve of any subcontractors used in connection with the Tenant Improvements. 
 2. Lessee
shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission to Lessor of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (called “Plans”) necessary to construct the Tenant
Improvements, which Plans shall be subject to approval by Lessor and Lessor’s architect and engineers and shall comply with their requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building.
Lessee shall be responsible for all elements of the design of Plans (including, without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the premises and the placement of
Lessee’s furniture, appliances and equipment), and Lessor’s approval of Plans shall in no event relieve Lessee of the responsibility for such design. If requested by Lessee, Lessor’s architect will prepare the Plans necessary for such
construction at Lessee’s cost. Whether or not the layout and Plans are prepared with the help (in whole or in part) of Lessor’s architect, Lessee agrees to remain solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of the Plans
and for all elements of the design of such Plans and for all costs related thereto. Lessee will deliver the initial Plans, approved by Lessee, to Lessor. Lessee has assured itself by direct communication with the architect and engineers
(Lessor’s or its own, as the case may be) that the final approved Plans can be delivered to Lessor on or before the Plans Due Date as defined in Section 2.02 herein, provided that Lessee promptly furnishes complete information concerning
its requirements to said architect and engineers as 

  
 F-1 

 
and when requested by them. Lessee covenants and agrees to cause said final, approved Plans to be delivered to Lessor on or before said Plans Due Date and to devote such time as may be necessary
in consultation with said architect and engineers to enable them to complete and submit the Plans within the required time limit. Time is of the essence in respect to preparation and submission of Plans by Lessee. In the event the Plans are not
fully completed and delivered by the Plans Due Date, Lessee shall be responsible for one (1) day of delay for each day during the period beginning on the day following the Plans Due Date and ending on the date completed Plans are delivered. In
the event such delay results in higher minimum costs of construction and/or higher actual construction costs which exceed the Allowance, such increased estimate or cost shall be deemed Excess Costs and Lessee shall pay such Excess Costs, plus any
applicable state sales or use tax thereon, within ten (10) days after demand for such sums. (The word “architect” as used in this Exhibit B shall include an interior designer or space planner.) 

3. Lessor, prior to commencing any construction of Tenant Improvements, shall submit to Lessee a written estimate setting forth the anticipated
cost of the Tenant Improvements, including but not limited to labor and materials, contractor’s fees and permit fees. Within five (5) Business Days thereafter, Lessee shall either notify Lessor in writing of its approval of the cost
estimate, or specify its objections thereto and any desired changes to the proposed Tenant Improvements. In the event Lessee notifies Lessor of such objections and desired changes, Lessee shall work with Lessor to reach a mutually acceptable
alternative cost estimate. 
 4. Lessee shall pay to Lessor all Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, within ten
(10) days after demand for such sums. The statements of costs submitted to Lessor by Lessor’s contractors shall be conclusive for purposes of determining the actual cost of the items described therein. The amounts payable by Lessee
hereunder constitute Additional Rent payable pursuant to the Lease, and the failure to timely pay same constitutes an event of default under the Lease. 

5. If Lessee shall request any change, addition or alteration in any of the Plans after approval by Lessor, Lessor shall have such revisions to
the drawings prepared, and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the cost thereof, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand. Promptly upon completion of the revisions, Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing of the increased cost
which will be chargeable to Lessee by reason of such change, addition or deletion. Lessee, within one (1) Business Day, shall notify Lessor in writing whether it desires to proceed with such change, addition or deletion. In the absence of such
written authorization, Lessor shall have the option to continue work on the Premises disregarding the requested change, addition or alteration, or Lessor may elect to discontinue work on the Premises until it receives notice of Lessee’s
decision, in which event Lessee shall be responsible for any delay in completion of the Premises resulting therefrom. In the event such revisions result in a higher estimate of the cost of construction and/or higher actual construction costs which
exceed the Allowance, such increased estimate or costs shall be deemed Excess Costs pursuant to Paragraph 4 hereof and Lessee shall pay such Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, within ten (10) days after demand for
such sums. 

  
 F-2 

 6. Following approval of the Plans and the payment by Lessee of the required portion of the
Excess Costs, if any, Lessor shall cause the Tenant Improvements to be constructed substantially in accordance with the approved Plans. Lessor shall notify Lessee of Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements. 

7. Lessor, provided Lessee is not in default, agrees to provide Lessee with an allowance (the “Allowance”) in an amount not to exceed
Forty-Five Dollars and NO/100 ($45.00) per square foot of Rentable Area to be applied toward the cost of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises. In the event the Allowance shall not be sufficient to complete the Tenant Improvements, Lessee shall
pay the Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, as prescribed in paragraph 4 above. In the event the Allowance exceeds the cost of Tenant Improvements, any remaining Allowance shall accrue to the sole benefit of Lessor, it
being agreed that Lessee shall not be entitled to any credit, offset, abatement or payment with respect thereto. Lessor shall be entitled to deduct from the Allowance a construction management fee for Lessor’s oversight of the Tenant
Improvements in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the total cost of the Tenant Improvements.

 EXHIBIT I 

RENEWAL OPTION 
 1.
Option to Extend. Lessee shall have the right and option (a “Renewal Option”) to renew the Lease (the “Renewal Option”) for five additional one year options (each a “Renewal Lease Term”); provided, however, such
Renewal Option is contingent upon the following (i) Lessee is not in default at the time Lessee gives Lessor notice of Lessee’s intention to exercise the Renewal Option; (ii) upon the Expiration Date, Lessee has no outstanding
default; (iii) no event has occurred that upon notice or the passage of time would constitute a default; (iv) Lessee is not disqualified by multiple defaults as provided in the Lease. Following the expiration of the Renewal Lease Term,
Lessee shall have no further right to renew the Lease pursuant to this Exhibit I. 
 2. Exercise of Option. Lessee shall exercise the
Renewal Option by giving Lessor notice at least 365 days prior to the Expiration Date or the last day of any Renewal Lease Term. If Lessee fails to give such notice to Lessor prior to said 365 day period, then Lessee shall forfeit the Renewal
Option. If Lessee exercises the Renewal Option, then during any such Renewal Lease Term, Lessor and Lessee’s respective rights, duties and obligations shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Lease. Time is of the essence in
exercising the Renewal Option. 
 3. Term. If Lessee exercises the Renewal Option, then during any such Renewal Lease Term, all
references to the term “Term”, as used in the Lease, shall mean the “Renewal Lease Term”. 
 4. Termination of Renewal
Option on Transfer by Lessee. In the event Lessor consents to an assignment or sublease by Lessee, then the Renewal Option shall automatically terminate unless Lessee agrees in writing to remain liable for any and all terms of the Lease during
the Renewal Lease Term, or otherwise agreed in writing by Lessor. 
 5. Rent for Renewal Lease Term. Rent for the Renewal Term shall
be as set forth in Section 3.01 (b) of the Lease Agreement.
