 LEASE AGREEMENT 
  
 This Lease Agreement (“Lease”) is entered into as of the Effective Date specified in the Basic Lease Provisions by
and between Landlord and Tenant. The Basic Lease Provisions attached hereto and the defined terms set out therein are hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
  

ARTICLE I—LEASED PREMISES 
  
 Section 1.01 Leased Premises 
  
 (a) The Leased Premises are depicted generally on Exhibit B and are or will be bounded by the inside surface of the window wall(s) and the
centerline of walls separating the Leased Premises from areas leased to or held for lease to other tenants or from Common Areas as described herein. No deduction from usable area will be made for columns or projections necessary to the Building or
for special stairs, elevators or other vertical penetrations which are for the specific use of Tenant. 
  
 (b) The term “Rentable Area”, as used herein with respect to the Leased Premises, refers to the sum of (i) the usable floor area of the Leased
Premises, estimated by Landlord using BOMA standards to be 22,713 square feet plus (ii) Tenant’s share of all corridors, lobbies, elevator foyers, restrooms, mechanical and electrical rooms, janitor’s closets and other similar facilities
of the Building (such areas being herein referred to as “Common Areas”). “Rentable Area” as used herein with respect to the Building, includes all space occupied or to be occupied by Tenants, together with the Common Areas. Upon
the completion of construction of improvements to the Leased Premises, useable floor area of the Leased Premises, but not the Common Area, may be re-measured at the request of either party. The cost of re-measurement shall be borne by the party
requesting re-measurement. If it is determined under BOMA standards that the useable floor area of the Leased Premises varies from the estimate set forth above, then the Rentable Area of the Leased Premises will be appropriately adjusted. If neither
party requests a re-measurement within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, then it will be presumed for all purposes under this Lease that the information in the Basic Lease Provisions with respect to the number of square feet of Rentable
Area in the Leased Premises is correct, and such number will be a stipulated number which will be utilized for all relevant purposes under this Lease. 
  
 Section 1.02 Lease Grant 
  
 For the consideration and subject to the terms, provisions and conditions set out below, Landlord lets and leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from
Landlord the Leased Premises. 
  
 Section 1.03 Building Core and Shell

  
 Landlord will provide the improvements which are listed and
described on Exhibit C which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the “Building Core and Shell”). If improvements are to be constructed by Landlord within the Leased Premises, then all of Landlord’s
agreements with respect thereto are set forth in a tenant work letter which is 
  

 1 

 attached to this Lease (the “Tenant Work Letter”) 
  
 ARTICLE II—LEASE TERM 
  
 Section 2.01 Lease Term 
  
 (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, or in any exhibit attached hereto, the primary term
of this Lease shall commence on the earlier of (i) the Completion Date or (ii) the date Tenant occupies all or part of the Leased Premises, (such earlier date being the “Commencement Date”) and shall expire on the last day of the
eighty-sixth (86th) full month after the Commencement Date or such earlier date as this Lease may terminate as
provided herein; provided, however, the term of this Lease shall not commence prior to the one hundred twenty-second (122nd) day following the Effective Date (the “Estimated Completion Date”) unless Tenant occupies all or a part of the
Leased Premises prior thereto. The “Lease Term” of this Lease shall be the primary term specified in this Section 2.01, as renewed or otherwise extended or earlier terminated pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth herein.

  
 (b) As used herein, “Completion Date” means the
date Tenant’s leasehold improvements are Substantially Completed (as defined below); provided, that, if Tenant occupies any part of the Leased Premises before the Commencement Date, the Lease Term and Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall
commence on the date Tenant occupies the Leased Premises and such date shall be deemed to be the Commencement Date. Except as provided in subsection (c) below, Tenant is deemed to occupy the Leased Premises when Tenant takes possession of any part
of the Leased Premises for any purpose, including placing furniture and installing Tenant’s equipment (other than telephone equipment) in the Leased Premises. If the Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, the Lease
Term will be extended and will be calculated as if the Commencement Date were the first day of the next full calendar month and the Rent hereunder will be prorated for the first partial month. 
  
 (c) The Leased Premises shall be deemed Substantially Completed when: (i)
Landlord has delivered the Leased Premises to Tenant with all the improvements identified in the Tenant Work Letter, completed in accordance with Tenant’s plans and specifications (except for minor “punch list” items, which must be
completed by Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s submission of such “punch list” to Landlord); and (ii) Landlord has delivered to Tenant a copy of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy for the Leased Premises approving the
world and lawfully permitting Tenant’s intended uses (as such term is defined below) of the Leased Premises. At least fifteen (15) business days prior to the Completion Date, Tenant’s contractor may enter the Leased Premises on a rent-free
basis to make any installations of telephone systems, equipment, fixtures and furnishings and any improvements allowed by Landlord; provided, however, if Tenant’s contractors cause Landlord to be delayed by more than one (1) day, then for each
day of such delay, Tenant shall be obligated to pay one day’s Minimum Rent to Landlord on the Completion Date. 
  

 2 

 (d) After the Completion Date, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly, upon the request of either of them,
execute and deliver to each other an agreement setting forth the Commencement and Expiration Dates. 
  
 (e) If this Lease is executed before the Leased Premises are available and ready for occupancy, or if any present tenant or occupant of the Leased
Premises holds over, and Landlord cannot acquire possession of the Leased Premises prior to the Commencement Date of this Lease, Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder, and Tenant agrees to accept possession of the Leased Premises
at such time as Landlord is able to tender the same and such date shall be deemed to be the Commencement Date and this Lease shall continue for the Lease Term. 
  

(f) In the event that Landlord fails to deliver the Leased Premises “Substantially Completed” on or before February 1, 2000, for any reasons
whatsoever, except those caused by Tenant or Tenant’s contractors, force majeure, acts of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition or order of governmental body or authority, then as Tenant’s
sole and exclusive remedy for Landlord’s failure to deliver the Leased Premises, Tenant shall have the option, but not the obligation, of: (i) terminating this Lease, and thereafter neither party shall have any further liability to the other
pursuant to this Lease; or (ii) extending the time for Landlord to so deliver the Leased Premises. If Tenant should elect to so terminate, it shall notify Landlord in writing of such no later than January 15, 2000. Failure of Tenant to notify
Landlord in a timely manner shall be deemed an election by Tenant not to terminate the Lease. 
  
 Section 2.02 Holding Over 
  
 Should Tenant hold the Leased Premises after termination of this Lease, by lapse of time, default, or otherwise, such holding over shall be construed as a tenancy at sufferance only, and Tenant shall pay in advance, as Rent, for each day of
such holding, a per diem amount equal to 1/30 of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Rent payable for the last month of the Lease Term. No receipt of money by Landlord from Tenant after termination of this Lease shall reinstate or extend this
Lease, or affect any prior notice given by Landlord to Tenant, and no extension shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Landlord and Tenant. The foregoing shall not be construed as Landlord’s consent for any such holding over, and Landlord
reserves the right to proceed against Tenant for any damages caused thereby. 
  
 ARTICLE III—RENT 
  
 Section 3.01
Minimum Rent 
  
 Tenant shall pay the Minimum Rent to
Landlord in monthly installments in advance on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Lease Term as shown in the Basic Lease Provisions. If the Lease Term is extended for a partial month under the terms of Section 2.01(a)
hereinabove, then the Lease Months referenced in the Minimum Rent table set out in the Basic Lease Provisions will begin on the first day of the next full calendar month of the Commencement Date and Minimum Rent will be calculated for the partial
month at the beginning of the Lease Term at the same rate as is provided with respect to the 
  

 3 

 first Lease Month. Minimum Rent for any partial calendar month will be prorated on a per diem basis.

  
 Section 3.02 Additional Rent 
  
 (a) For purposes of this Lease “Operating Expenses” means all of
Landlord’s costs and expenses paid or incurred in owning, operating, managing and maintaining the Building for a particular calendar year or portion thereof, including by way of illustration but not limitation: (i) all taxes, assessments and
governmental charges of any kind and nature whatsoever levied or assessed against the Building; (ii) any and all assessments levied by the planned unit development owner’s association; (iii) all premiums for any and all insurance maintained in
connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance, and/or management of the Building (including but not limited to property and liability coverage); (iv) water, sewer, electrical and other utility charges; (v) service and other charges incurred
in the operation and maintenance of the elevators and the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system (vi) cleaning and other janitorial services; (vii) tools and supplies; (viii) repair costs; (ix) landscape and maintenance costs; (x) security
services; (xi) license, permit and inspection fees other than that required for any tenant’s interior improvements; (xii) reasonable management fees; (xiii) wages and related benefits payable to employees who render services to or for the
benefit of the Building or tenants of the Building; thereto; (xiv) legal and accounting fees; (xv) trash removal; (xvi) garage maintenance and operating costs; (xvii) the cost of electrical surveys (xviii) reasonable and competitive costs associated
with building amenities for the benefit of all tenants; (xviv) capital improvements costing less than five thousand dollars ($5,000) and, in general, all other costs and expenses which would generally be regarded as operating and maintenance costs
and expenses, including those which would normally be amortized over a period not to exceed five (5) years. Also included in Operating Expenses is the cost of any capital improvement made to the Building by Landlord after the date of this Lease that
is required under governmental law or regulation not applicable to the Building at the time the Building was constructed, amortized over a period Landlord reasonably determines to be the useful life of the improvements, together with an amount equal
to interest at the rate often (10) percent per annum on the unamortized balance 
  
 All references in this Section 3.02(a) to Operating Expenses mean actual Operating Expenses; provided, however, for any calendar year or
partial calendar year in which the rentable area of the Building is not ninety five percent (95%) occupied with all tenants in occupancy and paying full rent, variable Operating Expenses for that period shall be calculated in a manner, and in the
amount, that would have been incurred had the Building been ninety five percent (95%) occupied with all tenants in occupancy and paying full rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, in no event will Landlord bill
tenants of the Building, or collect from tenants of the Building, amounts for reimbursement of Operating Expenses which exceed, in the aggregate, after all adjustments to correct and conform any estimated billings to actual expenses, the actual
amount of Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord in any calendar year. 
  
 If Landlord installs any device, improvement or equipment which Landlord, reasonably believes will improve the operating efficiency of any system within the Building 
  

 4 

 (e.g. solar collectors) or reduce Operating Expenses, or any device or equipment that is required to be
installed by any government or governmental agency having apparent authority to order that it be installed, then Landlord may add to the Operating Expenses each year during the useful life of the installed device, improvement, or equipment (as the
useful life is determined by Landlord) an amount equal to the annual amortization of the cost of the installed device, improvement, or equipment, calculated at the rate often (10) percent per annum over the useful life but in no event more than the
actual cost saved as a result of the installation thereof. 
  
 (b) Operating Costs shall not include costs for (i) repair, replacements and general maintenance paid by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third parties; (ii) interest, amortization or other payments on loans to Landlord; (iii)
leasing commissions; (iv) legal or accounting expenses for services, other than those that benefit the Building tenants generally (e.g., tax disputes); (v) renovating or otherwise improving space for occupants of the Building or vacant space in the
Building other than Common Areas; (vi) the costs incurred by Landlord to bring the Building, the Land or any equipment maintained therein in compliance with laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, requirements, directives, guidelines and orders in
effect and applicable to the Building as of the date of this Lease; (vii) the cost of any services or materials supplied to other tenants and not to Tenant; (viii) the cost of any services or materials for which Landlord receives reimbursement from
other sources; (ix) depreciation on the Building; (x) federal income and/or state franchise taxes imposed on or measured by the income of Landlord from the operation of the Building; (xi) repairs, alterations, additions, improvements, replacements
made to rectify or correct any defect in the original design, materials or workmanship of Building or Common Areas other than repairs, alterations, additions, improvements or replacements made as a result of ordinary wear and tear; (xii) damage and
repairs attributable to fire or other casualty; (xiii) damage and repairs necessitated by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord’s employees, contractors or agents; (xiv) executive salaries or salaries of service personnel
to the extent that such the services of such persons do not relate to the management, operation, repair or maintenance of the Building; (xv) Landlord’s general overhead expenses not related to the Building; (xvi) costs including permit, license
and inspection fees incurred in renovating or otherwise improving, decorating or painting or altering space for tenants or other occupants or of vacant space (excluding Common Areas) in the Building; (xvii) costs incurred due to a violation by
Landlord or any other tenant of the Building of the terms and conditions of a lease; and (xviii) cost of any service provided to Tenant or other occupants of the Building for which Landlord is reimbursed has received reimbursement from another
source; (xix) Landlord’s costs of electricity and other services or utilities sold to Tenant or other tenants or for which Landlord is entitled to be reimbursed by Tenant or other tenants of the Building as an additional, separately
identifiable charge or rental; (xx) costs incurred by Landlord for the removal of any Hazardous Materials within the Building and for any repairs necessitated by such removal, unless Tenant is responsible for bringing the Hazardous Materials onto
the Leased Premises; (xxi) any overhead and profit increment paid to subsidiaries or affiliates of Landlord for services at, on, or to the Building to the extent that the costs of such services exceed competitive costs for such services rendered by
unaffiliated persons or entities of similar skill, competence and experience; (xxii) interest or penalties on debt or amortization payments on any mortgage or mortgages, and rental or penalties under ground or underlying lease(s); (xxiii) any
compensation paid to 
  

 5 

 clerks, attendants, or other person in commercial concessions operated by Landlord; (xxiv) all items and
services for which Tenant reimburses Landlord or pays third persons; (xxv) advertising and promotional expenditures; (xxvi) any cost, fines, or penalties incurred due to violation by Landlord of any governmental rule or authority; (xxvii) costs for
sculpture, paintings, or other objects of art; (xxviii) costs incurred in the operation of the any concessions; (xxix) in the event Landlord ceases to provide any utilities, but instead allows or requires Tenant to contract directly with the utility
provider, or in the event Landlord submeters Tenant’s use of any utilities, Tenant’s pro rata share of Operating Expenses shall be reduced by the amounts Landlord pays to provide any such utilities to the Building except in the Common
Areas; (xxx) in the event Landlord leases any space in the Building for use as a restaurant, Landlord will require such operator to separately pay all of its utilities, or else Landlord will not include utilities in the Operating Expenses for which
Tenant is charged; (xxxi) any portion of assessments levied by The Terrace PUD Owners Association for capital improvements other than installation or replacement of lighting fixtures, irrigation equipment, landscaping, and signage; and (xxxii) any
fees paid to Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord except to the extent such fees are reasonable and competitive. 
  
 For the purposes of calculating Tenant’s obligation for the payment of Additional Rent under this Article, if any tenants of the
Building are billed separately for any category of Operating Expense (e.g., separately metered utilities) the amount of the separately billed Operating Expenses will not be included in Operating Expenses. For any category of Operating Expense for
which one or more tenants of the Building make(s) separate payments, Tenant’s Percentage will be adjusted for that category of Operating Expense by excluding from the denominator thereof the Rentable Area of all tenants making separate payments
with respect to such category. 
  
 (c) In addition to the Minimum
Rent, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent for the Leased Premises, in each calendar year, or partial calendar year, during the Lease Term, an amount equal to Tenant’s Percentage of the Operating Expenses for the calendar year or
portion of the calendar year; provided, however, Tenant shall not be required to pay Additional Rent for months one and two of the Lease Term and for any partial month at the beginning of the Lease Term; nor shall Tenant be required to pay
Additional Rent in excess of $8.00 per rentable square foot for the first full twelve-month period of the Lease Term. Landlord’s agreement to abate all or some portion of the Minimum Rent as set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions shall not
extend to or include an abatement of Additional Rent. 
  
 (d)
Landlord shall estimate Tenant’s Additional Rent for each subsequent calendar year, and give written notice thereof to Tenant as soon as reasonably possible but in no event later than March 1 of each calendar year. For each calendar year (or
partial calendar year) Tenant shall pay to Landlord each month, at the same time the Minimum Rent is due, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated annual Additional Rent due provided that, Landlord agrees that in calendar year 1999 and
subsequent calendar years Operating Expenses which may be controlled by Landlord shall not increase more than seven and one-half percent (7 1/2%) in any one (1) calendar year.

impositions of any kind or nature whatsoever; (ii.) premiums 
  

 6 

 for any and all property, casualty, worker’s compensation and/or other insurance maintained in
connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance or management of the Building; or (iii.) impositions, charges or fees of whatever kind or nature for water, sewer, gas, electric or other utilities. For any year during which Additional Rent is
due for less than the entire calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord each calendar month during such year, one-twelfth of the estimated Additional Rent that would have been due if Additional Rent had been due throughout that calendar year.

  
 (e) If Operating Expenses increase during a calendar year,
Landlord may revise the estimated Additional Rent during such year by giving Tenant written notice to that effect, and thereafter Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in each of the remaining months of that calendar year, an additional amount equal to the
amount of the increase in the estimated Additional Rent divided by the number of months remaining in the year. 
  
 (f) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a statement showing
Tenant’s actual Additional Rent for that calendar year. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of each statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, or Landlord shall pay to Tenant or credit against the next Additional Rent payment or payments due

 (g) Tenant will have the right, for a period of one (1) year after the
expiration of any calendar year (but not thereafter) to audit Landlord’s books, at Tenant’s cost and expense, to verify the Operating Expenses for such calendar year. If Tenant does not request an audit within one (1) year after the
expiration of any particular calendar year, then Tenant will be deemed to have waived any right it may have to an adjustment to Tenant’s Percentage of any Operating Expenses for such calendar year. 
  
 (h) Tenant’s right to verify Operating Expenses shall be subject to the
following limitations and conditions: (i) Tenant shall have provided Landlord with timely written notice of its desire to verify Operating Expenses and specified a date for such verification not less than fourteen (14) nor more than thirty (30)
business days from the delivery of the notice to Landlord; (ii) such review or verification shall take place in Landlord’s offices; and (iii) Tenant and any third party auditor or reviewer employed by Tenant shall execute and deliver to
Landlord a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to Landlord and which shall include, among other terms, the agreement of Tenant and such third party not to disclose to any other person (other than Tenant’s attorneys and accountants)
the existence of the review, the results of the review and the agreement of any third party not to solicit or conduct verifications or reviews on the part of any other tenant of the Building or the Project. 
  
 (i) In the event Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the appropriate
resolution of any dispute relating to Operating Expenses, the sole and exclusive remedy of Tenant shall be to submit the appropriate determination of Operating Expenses to binding arbitration in Travis County, Texas in accordance with the rules of
the American Arbitration Association for commercial disputes. In the event Landlord and Tenant can not agree on a panel of arbiters within ten (10) days after either party notifies the other of its election to submit the 
  

 7 

 matter to arbitration, then Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint an arbitrator and the two arbitrators
selected shall appoint the third. All arbitrators selected or appointed for resolution of the dispute shall be unaffiliated with the parties and shall have at least ten (10) years experience in commercial real estate leasing in Travis County, Texas

Deposit is in cash, Landlord agrees to place the Security Deposit in an interest bearing account, with the interest accruing to the benefit of Tenant. The Security Deposit is not an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Landlord’s damages for
a default by Tenant. If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease. Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the Security Deposit to the extent necessary to make good any arrearages in Rent or any
other sum for which Tenant is in default and any other damage, injury, expense, or liability caused to Landlord by the default. If the Security Deposit is in the form of an irrevocable Letter of Credit, Landlord may, upon the occurrence of an
uncured act of Default by Tenant, make demand upon the issuing bank for all the proceeds of the Letter of Credit and place any excess funds not required to make good arrearages under the Lease in Landlord’s Security Deposit Account. If Landlord
so applies any part of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay to 
  

 8

 If the Security
Deposit is cash, then after each anniversary of the Commencement Date Landlord shall promptly refund to Tenant any portion of the Security Deposit in excess of the then current amount required; and if the Security Deposit is a letter of credit,

 Section 7.02 Landlord’s Insurance 
  
 Landlord shall, at all times during the Lease Term, maintain a policy of
insurance insuring the Building against loss or damage by fire, explosion or other hazards and contingencies in amounts determined by Landlord. Tenant agrees that all personal property upon the Leased Premises shall be at the risk of Tenant only
that the Landlord shall not be liable for any damage thereto or theft thereof. Tenant will not permit anything to be done which will in any way increase the rate of fire and casualty insurance on the Building or contents. If by reason of any act or
conduct of business of Tenant there shall be any increase in the rate of insurance on the Building or contents created by Tenant’s acts or conduct of business, such act or conduct shall constitute an event of default under this Lease and Tenant
agrees to pay Landlord the amount of such increase on demand. 
  
 Section 7.03 Fire or Other Casualty  
  
 (a) If the Leased Premises or any part thereof are damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give prompt notice thereof to Landlord. If the Building is so damaged by fire or other casualty that, in
Landlord’s reasonable opinion and discretion, substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building is required or desirable (whether or not the Leased Premises are damaged) or if any mortgagee under a mortgage or deed of trust covering the
Building requires that the insurance proceeds payable as a result of the fire or other casualty be used to retire the mortgage debt, Landlord may, at its sole option, terminate this Lease by giving Tenant notice of termination within sixty (60) days
after the date of the damage. If Landlord terminates this Lease under this Section, the Rent shall abate as of the date of the damage. 
  
 (b) If Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall, within seventy-five (75) days after Landlord’s receipt of insurance proceeds
relating to the damage, commence to repair and restore the Building (except that Landlord is not responsible for delays outside its control) to substantially the same condition in which it was immediately prior to the casualty. Landlord is not
required to rebuild, repair, or replace any part of Tenant’s furniture or furnishings or fixtures and equipment removable by Tenant under the provisions of this Lease. Landlord is not liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or any
Tenant Party or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from casualty damage or the repairs; provided, during the time and to the extent the Leased Premises are unfit for occupancy, Landlord shall either furnish Tenant with comparable
office space at prevailing market rates or a fair diminution of Rent, the choice of which is at Landlord’s sole discretion. 
  
 (c) If the damages are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any Tenant Party, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand as Additional
Rent any damages in excess of the amount paid by insurance proceeds received by Landlord. Any insurance carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to the Building or to the Leased Premises is for the sole benefit of the party carrying the
insurance and under its sole control. 
  
 Section
7.04 Waiver of Subrogation 
  
 Each party waives all
claims that arise or may arise in its favor against the other party, or anyone claiming through or under them, by way of subrogation or otherwise, during the 

  

 17 

 
Lease Term or any extension or renewal thereof, for all losses of, or damage to, any of its property (whether or not the loss or damage is caused by the
fault or negligence of the other party or anyone for whom the other party is responsible), which loss or damage is covered by valid and collectible fire and extended coverage insurance policies, to the extent that the loss or damage is recovered
under the insurance policies. These waivers are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other waiver or release in this Lease with respect to any loss or damage to property of the parties. Since these mutual waivers preclude the assignment of
any claim by way of subrogation (or otherwise) to an insurance company (or any other person), each party shall immediately give each insurance company issuing to it policies of fire and extended coverage insurance written notice of the terms of
these mutual waivers, and have the insurance policies properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation of the insurance coverages by reason of these waivers. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII—CONDEMNATION 
  
 (a) If all or substantially all of the Building is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law,
ordinance or regulation or by right of eminent domain or is sold to the condemning authority in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease will terminate as of the date when physical possession of the portion of the Building is taken by the condemning
authority. 
  
 (b) If this Lease is not terminated upon any
taking or sale of less than all or substantially all of the Building:

 (2) Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole expense,

 ARTICLE IX—INDEMNIFICATIONS AND WAIVER 
  
 Section 9.01 Limitations on Liability of Landlord: Waiver 
  

 18 

 (a) Landlord is not liable to any Tenant or any Tenant Party or any other person, and Tenant waives
any liability of Landlord, for: 
  
 (1)
any injury or damage to person or property due to the condition or design of, or any defect in, the Building that exists now or occurs in the future, except for Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; 
  
 (2) any injury or damage to person or property due to the
Building or related improvements or appurtenances being out of repair, or defects in or failure of pipes or wiring, or backing up of drains, or the bursting or leaking of pipes, faucets and plumbing mixtures, or gas, water, steam, electricity, or
oil leaking, escaping, or flowing into the Leased Premises, unless caused by Landlord’s willful misconduct or gross negligence; 
  
 (3) any loss or damage caused by the acts or omissions of other tenants in the Building or of any other persons, excepting only the
willful misconduct or gross negligence of duly authorized employees and agents of Landlord; or 
  
 (4) any loss or damage to property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, insurrection, war,
court order, requisition, order of governmental authority, and any other cause beyond the control of Landlord. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Lease, the liability of Landlord to Tenant or any Tenant Party for
any default or indemnity by Landlord under this Lease is limited to the interest of Landlord in the Building. Neither Landlord nor any partner, employee, agent, director, or officer of Landlord has any personal liability for any amounts payable or
obligations performable by Landlord under this Lease. 
  
 Section 9.02
Limitations on Liability of Tenant: Waiver 
  
 (a)
Tenant is not liable to Landlord or any Landlord Party or any other person, and Landlord waives any liability of Tenant, for: 
  
 (1) any injury or damage to person or property due to the condition or design of or any defect in, the Building that exists now or
occurs in the future, except for Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; 
  
 (2) any injury or damage to person or property due to the Building or related improvements or appurtenances being out of repair, or
defects in or failure of pipes or wiring, or backing up of drains, or the bursting or leaking of pipes, faucets and plumbing mixtures, or gas, water, steam, electricity, or oil leaking, escaping, or flowing into the Leased Premises, unless caused by
Tenant’s willful misconduct or gross negligence;

 19 

 
negligence of duly authorized employees and agents of Tenant; or 
  
 (4) any loss or damage to property or person occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy,
injunction, riot, insurrection, war, court order, requisition, order of governmental authority, and any other cause beyond the control of Tenant. 
  
 Section 9.03 No Implied Waiver 
  
 The failure of either party to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any of the terms of this Lease or to exercise any option, right, power or
remedy contained in this Lease is not a waiver of the right or remedy for the future. The waiver of any breach of this Lease or violation of the Rules and Regulations attached hereto does not prevent a subsequent act, which would have originally
constituted a breach or violation, from having all the force and effect of an original breach or violation. No express waiver affects any terms other than the ones specified in the waiver and those only for the time and in the manner specifically
stated. Acceptance by Landlord of any Rent after the breach of any of the terms of this Lease or violation of any Rule or Regulation is not a waiver of the breach or violation or the right to collect applicable late charges and interest. No waiver
by either party of any of the terms of this Lease is effective unless expressed in writing and signed by such party. 
  
 Section 9.04 Hazardous Materials 
  
 (a) Tenant has no liability or responsibility with respect to Hazardous Substances, if any, which were placed or located within the Leased Premises or the
Building prior to the Effective Date, but Tenant may not, except as otherwise provided herein: 
  
 (1) cause or permit the escape, disposal, or release in the Leased Premises or the Building of any biologically active, chemically
active, or hazardous substances or materials (hereafter referred to as “Hazardous Substances”); or 
  
 (2) bring or permit or allow any Tenant Party to bring, any Hazardous Substances into the Leased Premises or the Building. 
  
 The term Hazardous Substances includes, but is not limited
to, those described in the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq., the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq., the Texas
Water Code, the Texas Solid Waste Disposal Act, and other applicable state or local environmental laws and the regulations adopted under those acts. 
  
 (b) If any lender or governmental agency requires testing to ascertain whether or not a release of Hazardous Substances has occurred in or on the Leased
Premises or the Building based on probable cause that a release occurred and was caused by any Tenant or Tenant Party, then Tenant shall reimburse the reasonable costs of the testing to Landlord on demand as Rent. 
  

 20 

 (c) Tenant shall execute affidavits, representations, and the like from time to time at Landlord’s
request concerning Tenant’s best knowledge and belief regarding the presence of Hazardous Substances in the Leased Premises and the Building. 
  
 (d) Tenant shall indemnify Landlord in the manner elsewhere provided in this Lease from any release of Hazardous Substances in or on the Leased Premises
or the Building caused or permitted by any Tenant or Tenant Party.

contain Hazardous Materials that pose a significant health risk to Tenant’s employees and invitees, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing. If Landlord fails to remediate such problem within ninety (90) days thereafter, and if Tenant
is not responsible for the presence of the Hazardous Materials, then Tenant may, in addition to any other remedies it may have, terminate this Lease. 
  
 ARTICLE X—ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 
  

	10.01	 	No Assignment or Subletting Without Consent. 

  
 (a) Except as provided herein, Tenant may not, without Landlord’s prior written consent: (1) assign or transfer this Lease or any interest therein,
(2) permit any assignment of this Lease or any interest therein by operation of law, (3) sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof, (4) grant any license, concession, or other right of occupancy of any portion of the Leased Premises; (5)
mortgage, pledge, or otherwise encumber its interest in this Lease; or (6) permit the use of the Leased Premises by any parties other than Tenant and its employees. 
  
 (b) For the purposes of the foregoing prohibition on assignment and subletting without Landlord’s consent, i) the sale,
transfer or issuance of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of any corporate tenant however accomplished, whether in a single transaction or a series of unrelated transactions, except with regard to a public offering of stock in
Tenant; ii) the sale transfer or issuance of a majority of the total interest in any partnership tenant, however accomplished, whether in a single transaction or a series of unrelated transactions; or iii) a take over agreement or similar
arrangement under which one or more of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease are assumed by another party, shall be deemed to be an assignment of the Lease by Tenant. 
  
 (c) In the event Tenant desires the consent of Landlord to an assignment or subletting, Tenant shall submit to Landlord not
less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the assignment or subletting a written notice of such fact which shall include copies of the 

  

 21 

 
final form of the documentation of the assignment or sublease and sufficient information to permit Landlord to determine the identity, character and
financial condition of the proposed assignee or subtenant. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding any contrary or inconsistent language herein, Tenant may assign or transfer all or any portion of this Lease to any entity which controls, is controlled by, or under common control with Tenant. 
  
 10.02 Landlord’s Consent. 
  
 (a) Landlord’s consent hereunder shall not be unreasonably withheld;
provided, however, in granting or withholding its consent Landlord shall be entitled to take into consideration all relevant factors including without limitation, the credit worthiness of the proposed subtenant or assignee, the nature of the
business and business reputation of the proposed subtenant or assignee (including without limitation proposed uses and parking requirements), the term of the sublease or assignment and the rental rate under the proposed sublease or assignment
including the impact of such rate on Landlord’s marketing of space within the Building. Landlord may, if it so elects, withhold its consent if the proposed subtenant or assignee is a government entity. Landlord may withhold or condition its
consent subject to execution and delivery of an appropriate sublease or assignment which shall include such terms and conditions as Landlord may reasonably require including provisions for notice to Landlord, prohibition on further assignment or
subleasing without Landlord’s consent and indemnification of Landlord by the subtenant or assignee. Landlord may, subject to its obligation to mitigate its damages, withhold its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, or an event has occurred which, with the giving of notice, or the passage of time, or both, could constitute any Event of Default. 
  
 (b) In the event the Minimum Rent paid by any assignee or subtenant exceeds the Minimum Rent due from Tenant, Landlord shall
be entitled to receive one-half (1/2) of such excess in addition to the Minimum Rent after Tenant has first recovered any leasing commissions, improvement costs and other transactional costs incurred in effecting their sublease or assignment.
Landlord’s consent to any assignment or subletting, is not a waiver of Landlord’s right to approve or disapprove any subsequent assignment or subletting. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting, Tenant and any guarantor of Tenant’s
obligations under this Lease shall remain jointly and severally liable for the payment of Rent and performance of all other obligations under this Lease. 
  
 (d) Upon receipt of the written notice from Tenant described in Section 10.01(c) Landlord may, of it so elects, terminate the Lease as to that portion of
the Leased Premises which Tenant desires to sublease or assign. Landlord may exercise this option to terminate by written notice to Tenant at any time prior to Landlords written consent to the assignment or sublease. In the event Landlord elects to
exercise this right to terminate the Lease, Tenant shall surrender possession of the Leased Premises to Landlord on the later of i) the proposed date of possession of the Leased Premises by the assignee or subtenant; or ii) ninety (90) days after
the date of Landlord’s notice of termination to Tenant. 
  

 22 

 ARTICLE XI—DEFAULT 
  
 Section 11.0 Default 
  
 (a) Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” by Tenant: 
  
 (1) The Tenant abandons all or any part of the Leased
Premises and fails to pay one or more installments of Minimum Rent or Additional Rent due hereunder; or, if Tenant is a corporation or partnership, Tenant dissolves or liquidates; or 
  
 (2) The filing of a petition to declare Tenant a bankrupt or to delay, reduce or modify Tenant’s debts
or obligations, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of Tenant or its property or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs; or if Tenant makes an assignment of the benefits of Tenant’s creditors or admits in writing
Tenant’s inability to pay the debts due; or, if Tenant dissolves or liquidates; or, 
  
 (3) The failure of Tenant to pay when due any subsequent installment of Minimum Rent, or Additional Rent, or any other money payments due
hereunder, or any part thereof, and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant written notice of such failure. Provided, however, if Tenant fails to pay installments of Rent, Additional Rent, or
any other money payments due hereunder on a timely basis: (i) on two or more occasions during any calendar year; or (ii) in two or more consecutive calendar months, then Landlord will thereafter have no obligation in such calendar year to deliver
any notice of default to Tenant under the terms hereof and an “Event of Default” will be deemed to have occurred immediately upon the failure of Tenant to pay when due any installment of Rent, Additional Rent, or any other money payments
due hereunder in the same year, without any grace period and without necessity of Landlord delivering any notice of default to Tenant); or 
  
 (4) The failure of Tenant to fulfill or perform in whole or in part, any agreement or provision of this Lease which is an obligation upon
Tenant, other than the payment of Rent, Additional Rent or any other money amounts due hereunder, and such failure or nonperformance shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been given by Landlord to Tenant ,
provided, however, that if such nonperformance cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be in default if it commences its curative efforts within the thirty (30) day time period and proceeds diligently thereafter
to cure the problem. 
  
 (b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default, Landlord shall have the option to do any one or more of the following without any notice or demand, in addition to and in limitation of any other remedy permitted by law or by this lease: 
  
 (1) Landlord may terminate this Lease and forthwith
repossess the Leased Premises and be entitled to recover forthwith as damages a sum of money equal to the total of: (i) the cost of recovering the Leased Premises (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit); 
  

 23 

 
(ii) the unpaid Rent earned at the time of termination, plus interest thereon at Interest Rate; (iii) the entire amount of the total Rent payable during the
remainder of the Lease Term; and (iv) any other sum of money and damages owed by Tenant to Landlord. 
  
 (2) Landlord may terminate Tenant’s right of possession (but not this Lease) and may repossess the Leased Premises by forcible entry
or detainer suit or otherwise, without demand or notice of any kind to Tenant and without terminating this Lease, in which event Landlord shall attempt to relet the Leased Premises for the account of Tenant for such rent and upon such terms as shall
be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. For the purpose of such reletting, Landlord is authorized to make any repairs, changes, alterations, or additions in or to Leased Premises which Landlord may consider
to be necessary, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment. If Landlord shall fail to relet the Leased Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord as damages a sum equal to the amount of the Rent and all other sums due hereunder, plus the cost of
recovering possession of the Leased Premises, plus interest on all of the foregoing at the Interest Rate. If the Leased Premises are relet and a sufficient sum is not realized from such reletting (after paying the cost of recovering possession of
the Leased Premises, plus all of the costs and expenses of repairs, changes, alterations, and additions to the Leased Premises, plus all expenses of reletting the Leased Premises, plus interest on all of the forgoing at the Interest Rate) to satisfy
the Rent provided for in this Lease to be paid, plus all other sums owed by Tenant to Landlord, plus interest on all of the foregoing at the Interest Rate, then Tenant shall satisfy and pay any such deficiency to Landlord upon demand therefor from
time to time, and Tenant agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any sums falling due under the terms of this paragraph from time to time, and that no delivery or recovery of any portion due Landlord hereunder shall be any defense to any
subsequent action brought for any amount not theretofore reduced to judgment in favor of Landlord, nor shall such reletting be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be
given to Tenant by Landlord. Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach. 
  
 (3) Landlord may make such payments and/or take such actions (including, without limitation, entering upon
or within the Leased Premises, by force if necessary) and do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease, and Tenant covenants and agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in effecting
compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date paid by Landlord. 
  
 (4) At any time after an Event of Default by Tenant has occurred hereunder, Landlord shall have the right, subject to any applicable
laws, to change or modify door locks on entry doors to the Leased Premises, and/or terminate all utility services to the Leased Premises, and such right to modify or change locks and/or terminate utility services shall continue so long as Tenant is
in default hereunder. Landlord shall not be obligated to furnish Tenant with a new key or to allow Tenant to enter the Leased Premises, or to reinstate any terminated utility services until and unless Tenant has cured any default hereunder. Landlord
may take such action as is required to cure any breach or default by Tenant hereunder and bill Tenant for any reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in curing such breach, and Tenant shall be obligated to pay such bill immediately upon its receipt
by Tenant. 
  

 24 

 (5) After terminating this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Leased
Premises, Landlord may, without notice to Tenant or any other party, remove any and all personal property located in the Leased Premises and either dispose of or store such personal property at Tenant’s expense. 
  
 (6) In addition to the other remedies provided in this
Lease, Landlord shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief in case of the violation or attempted or threatened violation, of any of the provisions of this Lease, or to a decree compelling performance of any
other provisions of this lease, or to any other remedy allowed at law or in equity. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other remedy or provision set forth in this Lease: (i) this Lease may be terminated by Landlord only by written notice of such termination to Tenant given in accordance with the notice provisions
of this Lease, and no other act or omission of Landlord shall be construed as a termination of this Lease; (ii) all rights and remedies of Landlord herein or existing at law or in equity are cumulative and the exercise of one or more rights or
remedies shall not be taken to exclude or waive the right to the exercise of any other; (iii) Tenant agrees that acceptance of full or partial payments by Landlord after notice of termination or forfeiture will not constitute a waiver of the
default, termination, or forfeiture unless Landlord agrees to a waiver in writing, nor affect any legal proceedings taken or to be taken by Landlord except to reduce Tenant’s obligation to Landlord by the amount of such payment; and (iv) waiver
by Landlord of any defaults or breaches by Tenant of any provisions of this Lease shall not bar Landlord thereafter from requiring prompt performance by Tenant of the obligations of this Lease, nor shall Landlord be barred thereafter from immediate
exercise of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies in case of continuing or subsequent default or violation by Tenant. 
  
 Section 11.02 Landlord’s Lien 
  
 Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has a statutory lien on certain of Tenant’s property. 
  
 Section 11.03 Mitigation of Damages 
  
 (a) Both Landlord and Tenant shall each use commercially reasonably efforts to mitigate any damages resulting from a default
of the other party under this Lease. 
  
 (b) Landlord and Tenant
agree to the following criteria in connection with Landlord’s obligation to mitigate damages after a default by Tenant under this Lease: 
  
 (1) Landlord will have no obligation to enter into contracts or leases with any other prospective tenants of the Leased Premises until
and unless Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Leased Premises, including without limitation, the final and unappealable legal right to relet the Leased Premises free of any claim of Tenant. 
  
 (2) Landlord will not be obligated to offer the Leased
Premises to a prospective tenant when other premises suitable for that prospective tenant’s use are (or soon will be) available in the Building or in any other building which is located in the vicinity of the 
  

 25 

 
Building and which is owned by Landlord. 
  
 (3) Landlord will not have any obligation to lease the Leased Premises for any rental which is unreasonably less than the current rate
then prevailing for similar space in the Building (or if no similar space is available in the Building, the current fair market rental then prevailing for similar space in comparable buildings in the same market area as the Building) nor shall
Landlord be obligated to enter into a new lease under any terms or conditions that are unreasonably unacceptable to Landlord under Landlord’s then current leasing policies for comparable space in the Building. 
  
 (4) Landlord will not be obligated to enter into any lease
with any prospective tenant whose presence or operations in the Building would: (i) unreasonably disrupt the tenant mix or balance of the Building; (ii) violate any restriction, covenant or requirement contained in the lease of another tenant in the
Building; (iii) adversely and unreasonably affect the reputation of the Building; or (iv) be incompatible with the operation of the Building as a first class office building. 
  
 (5) Landlord will not be obligated to enter into a lease with any prospective tenant which does not have,
in Landlord’s sole judgment and opinion, sufficient financial resources and operating experience to operate the Leased Premises in a first class manner and meet its financial obligations. 
  
 (6) Landlord will not be required to expend any amount of
money to alter, remodel or otherwise make the Leased Premises suitable for use by any prospective tenant. 
  
 (7) Landlord will have no obligation to expend any unreasonable sums of money to market the Leased Premises. 
  
 If Landlord makes the Leased Premises available for
reletting under the criteria set forth hereinabove, Landlord will be deemed to have fully satisfied Landlord’s obligation to mitigate damages under this Lease and under any law or judicial ruling in effect on the date of this Lease or at the
time of Tenant’s default, and Tenant hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent legally permissible, any right to assert in any action by Landlord to enforce the terms of this Lease, any defense, counterclaim, or rights of set-off or
recoupment respecting the mitigation of damages by Landlord (or alleged failure by Landlord to adequately mitigate its damages), unless and to the extent Landlord fails to act in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.03.

	2.	 	The Minimum Rent under the Lease is $
                             per month payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month.

	8.	 	No Event of Default by Tenant or default by Landlord has occurred under the Lease and is continuing and no act or omission has occurred that with the giving of notice or passage of
time or both would constitute an Event of Default by Tenant except as specified on Schedule A. 

  

	9.	 	Tenant is not entitled to any abatements, set-offs, or deductions from Rent under the Lease except as specified in Schedule A. 

  

	10.	 	No Rent has been paid more than one month in advance. 

  

	11.	 	The Security Deposit is $                     .

	13.	 	Tenant agrees to execute such documents as any Purchaser or Lender reasonably requests for the purpose of subordinating the Lease to any mortgage or deed of trust to be placed upon
the Building from time to time, provided that such subordination is subject to Tenant’s continued quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises for so long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease. Tenant further agrees to execute and deliver any
estoppel certificates requested by any Purchaser or Lender from time to time in connection with the sale or encumbrance of the Leased Premises or the Building. 

  

	14.	 	Tenant certifies that there are no unpaid bills relating to any materials furnished or labor performed in connection with the construction of any improvements to the Leased Premises

Provisions. 
  
 (b) All Tenant Parties must comply with all
traffic, security, safety, and other rules and regulations promulgated from time to time with respect to the Garage. 
  
 (c) Landlord shall not be responsible for money, jewelry, automobiles or other personal property lost in or stolen from the Garage regardless of whether
such loss or theft occurs when the Garage or other areas therein are locked or otherwise secured against entry. Except as caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage
to persons using the Garage or automobiles or other property therein, it being agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the use of the Garage and the spaces shall be at the sole risk of Tenant and its employees. 
  
 (d) Landlord shall have the right from time to time to promulgate reasonable
rules and regulations regarding the Garage, the spaces and the use thereof, including, but not limited to, rules and regulations controlling the flow of traffic to and from various parking areas, the angle and direction of parking and the like.

(f) Landlord shall have the right to temporarily close the Garage or certain areas therein in order to perform necessary repairs, maintenance and
improvements to the Garage. 
  
 (g) Tenant shall not assign or

 (h) For each parking space covered under this Agreement, Tenant will have

 (i) Only one (1) vehicle per permit shall have access to
the Garage. 
  
 (ii) Tenant shall at all times
maintain with Landlord a list of permits held by Tenant, which list shall be in form, scope, and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and shall identify each individual to whom a permit has been issued, the vehicle used by such individual,

Tenant’s responsibilities, obligations, and liabilities under this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if such unauthorized or improper use of a permit is made by an employee of Tenant without Tenant’s knowledge, consent, or
approval, then such employee may be barred by Landlord from using the permit and any parking spaces in the Garage, and Landlord may permit Tenant to reissue the permit to another employee of Tenant subject to the provisions of this parking
agreement. 
  
 (v) Each permit shall at all
times remain the property of Landlord, and Tenant shall surrender all permits to Landlord immediately upon termination of this Lease. 
  
 (i) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including, but not
limited to, attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising or alleged to arise out of the use of any parking permit issued 
  

 2 

 hereunder. If any of the parking spaces covered by the permits provided to Tenant hereunder become
unavailable for use by Tenant at any time or from time to time during the Lease Term whether due to casualty or any other cause, the charges hereunder with respect to the applicable permits shall abate until such spaces again become available for
use by Tenant, but otherwise this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. 
  

	2.	 	Signage. 

  
 Landlord agrees to allow Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to (i) place a prominent sign on the exterior of the Building at a place mutually
agreeable to Landlord and Tenant; and (i) place a monument sign on the land at a prominent location mutually agreeable to Landlord and Tenant. The signs may display Tenant’s name and logo (if any). The signs shall conform to the design and
aesthetics of other signage within The Terrace Development and must be approved by the Architectural Committee of The Terrace Property Association. 
  

	3.	 	Right of First Refusal for Leasing of Building Three.

next building constructed by Landlord and/or its affiliates in The Terrace P.U.D. which is projected to be built on Block A, Lot 2, according to the preliminary Plat of The Terrace P.U.D., Revision 5, dated April 15, 1999 (herein “Building
3”). Landlord warrants that it has full right and authority to grant this right of first refusal regarding Building 3. This right of first refusal is subject to the following terms and conditions: 
  
 (i) If Landlord shall have an offer from a third party to
lease all Building 3, which offer is acceptable to Landlord, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written notice specifying all of the material terms of the offered lease. Tenant shall have three (3) business days from the delivery of such notice to
accept the proposed lease. If within the three (3) business days period Tenant does not give Landlord written notice of its acceptance of the proposed lease, then Landlord shall be entitled to complete its negotiations with the third party.

  
 (ii) If Tenant exercises its Right of First
Refusal, it shall be required to lease such refusal space on the terms specified in the offer, except that Tenant may use the space for the same purposes allowed herein. If Tenant fails or refuses to exercise its Right of First Refusal, Landlord may
lease such space to the third party on terms and conditions which do not materially differ from those stated in the notice to Tenant.

 EXHIBIT H 
  
 to Lease by and between 
  
 Desta Two Partnership, Ltd. 
  
 and 
  
 SigmaTel, Inc. 
  
 OPTION TO EXTEND LEASE TERM 
  

	A.	 	If Tenant is not in default under this Lease at the time of exercise of this option or at the commencement of the extended Lease Term, Tenant shall have two (2) options to extend
the Lease Term. The first option shall be for an extension term of five (5) years commencing on the next day after the initial Expiration Date. Tenant may extend the Lease Term by giving Landlord an extension notice at least six (6) months, but not
more than nine (9) months prior to the initial expiration date (“Extension Notice”). If Tenant timely gives a valid Extension Notice, the Lease Term is extended for five (5) years upon the same terms as in the Lease, except that the Rent
and other applicable terms adjust based on the Market Rate (defined below) and Tenant has no further option to extend the Lease Term. The second option shall be for an extension term of five (5) years commencing on the next day after the first
extension term. Tenant may extend the Lease Term by giving Landlord an extension notice at least six (6) months, but not more than nine (9) months, prior to the expiration of the first extension term. If Tenant timely gives a valid Extension Notice,
the Lease Term is extended for an additional five (5) years upon the same terms as in the Lease, except that the Rent and other applicable terms adjust based on the Market Rate (defined below) and Tenant has no further option to further extend the
Lease Term. 

  

	B.	 	Within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives either of Tenant’s Extension Notices, Landlord shall deliver a notice to Tenant specifying the Market Rate. If Tenant does not
approve Landlord’s designation of Market Rate, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, may, within five (5) days after the date of Landlord’s designation, request arbitration of such Market Rate in accordance with the following procedure; failure
to take any action shall be deemed to be a waiver of the renewal election. Landlord and Tenant each shall select one qualified (MAI) appraiser and inform the other as to its selection within five (5) business days after the date Tenant receives
Landlord’s designation of Market Rate (the “Designation Date”). Those two appraisers shall select a third qualified (MAI) appraiser within ten (10) business days after the Designation Date. In order to be “qualified,” each
of said appraisers shall have at least three (3) years of experience appraising leasehold interests under commercial leases in Austin, Texas. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear the cost of its appraiser and one-half ( 1/2) of the cost of the third appraiser. Said three appraisers shall determine the Market Rate in accordance with the
parameters set forth herein by mutual agreement within thirty (30) business days after the Designation Date. If all of said appraisers fail to agree on the Market Rate within thirty (30) business days after the Designation Date, but two of said
appraisers 

 can so agree, then the Market Rate as determined by such two appraisers shall be controlling. If none of
said appraisers can agree on the Market Rate within such time period, then an average shall be taken of the two closest determinations thereof and such average shall be controlling (except that if the median of the three rates provided by the
appraisers is also the average of the three, it shall be controlling). 
  

	C.	 	The term Market Rate means the minimum rent, parking, refurbishment allowance and other inducements that Landlord quotes for space similar to the Leased Premises in the
Building for a five (5) year term commencing on the same date as the extension term, as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion. 

  

	D.	 	Tenant may not assign this extension option to any assignee of the Lease, nor may any sublessee or assignee exercise this extension option. 

  

	E.	 	If the Lease Term is extended under this Exhibit, Landlord shall prepare, and Landlord and Tenant will execute and deliver an amendment to the Lease extending the Lease Term.

 TENANT WORK LETTER 
  
 This Tenant Work Letter is attached to and made a part of and is entered into of even date with that certain Lease Agreement (“the
Lease”) by and between DESTA TWO PARTNERSHIP, LTD. (“Landlord”) and SigmaTel, Inc. (“Tenant”). All terms defined in the Lease and delineated herein by initial capital letters have the same meanings herein as
are ascribed to such terms in the Lease, except to the extent that the meaning of any such term is specifically modified by the provisions hereof. 
  
 In consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, Landlord and Tenant mutually agree as follows: 
  

	1.	 	Susman, Tisdale, Gayle (“Architect”) has been requested to prepare and submit to Landlord and Tenant a space plan depicting Tenant’s proposed improvements to the
Leased Space (the “Space Plan”). Upon completion, the Space Plan is to be reviewed and approved by both Landlord and Tenant. Copies or the Space Plan are to be initialed for identification by Landlord and Tenant. Architect will utilize the
Space Plan to prepare the following architectural and mechanical drawings and specifications: a.) complete finished and detailed architectural drawings and specifications for Tenant’s partition layout, reflected ceiling, telephone and
electrical outlets, and finish schedule for improvements to the Leased Premises; and, b.) complete mechanical drawings and specifications necessary for installation of air conditioning and heating systems and ductwork, and electrical facilities for
the (together the “Working Drawings”). If Tenant desires to make any changes or modifications to the Working Drawings, such changes and modifications must be delivered to Architect in sufficient time to allow Architect to have issued
revised Working Drawings available for bidding by contractors on September 1, 1999. 

  

	2.	 	All construction will be performed by contractors retained by Landlord. If Tenant reasonably objects to the bid of any subcontractor, Landlord agrees to competitively bid that
portion of the work to the open market. Landlord will, at its sole cost, provide a completed building core and shell which shall include the items set forth on Exhibit C to the Lease. Landlord will also provide Tenant a construction allowance
(the “Allowance”) to: (a.) first, to pay for the cost of preparing space plans, architectural drawings, mechanical drawings and specifications; and (b.) second, to pay for the cost of constructing leasehold improvements in and about the
Leased Premises in accordance with the Working Drawings. The Allowance shall be an amount calculated by multiplying (a) the total Rentable Area of the Leased Premises as defined in Section 1.01 of the Lease, and (b) Twenty Five and No/100/Dollars
($25.00). 

  

	3.	 	There will be no rebate to Tenant or reduction in Rent because of Tenant’s desire to utilize less than the total amount of the Allowance to finish the Leased Premises;
provided, however, if the cost of finishing the improvements to the Leased Premises in accordance with the Working Drawings is less than the amount of the Allowance, Tenant may utilize such sums to install additional improvements in the Leased
Premises. If Tenant desires to change or substitute improvements to the Leased Premises from those in the Working Drawings, 

  

 1 

	 	 
credits, if any, for the omitted or added items must be agreed upon in writing before the work is commenced. 

  

	4.	 	Tenant may make changes in the Working Drawings subsequent to September 1, 1999 and during the construction of the Leased Premises; provided, however, that: a) Tenant will be
responsible for all costs relating to such changes; b) Tenant will be responsible for the consequences of any delay resulting from such changes; and, c) all changes must be accomplished through written change orders which are submitted to Landlord
and approved in writing by Landlord. In the event Tenant requests a change to the Working Drawings, before implementing that change, Landlord will provide Tenant with an estimate of any change in costs as well as any delay in construction which may
be occasioned by Tenant’s requested change and provide Tenant with the opportunity to withdraw the requested change based on Tenant’s evaluation of the increased cost or delay resulting from the proposed change. The foregoing provisions
are not intended to imply that Landlord has any obligation to consent to any proposed omission or substitution with respect to the Working Drawings; rather, such consent by Landlord may be withheld, denied, or conditioned in any manner and to any
extent, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. 

  

	5.	 	The cost of completing the improvements to the Leased Premises in accordance with the Working Drawings will be paid by Landlord out of the Allowance; provided, however, that if the
cost of completing the improvements to the Leased Premises in accordance with the Working Drawings exceeds the Allowance, then Tenant will pay the full amount of such excess to Landlord within five (5) days after Landlord has made demand for
payment. Except as provided in Paragraph 3, if the cost of completing the improvements set forth in the Working Drawings is less than the Allowance, Landlord will be entitled to retain the difference and there will be no rebate, refund or credit to
Tenant as a result thereof. 

  

	6.	 	Tenant’s obligation for the payment of Rent under the Lease shall not commence until the leasehold improvements are Substantially Completed (as that term is defined in the
Lease). If Landlord shall be delayed in substantially completing said leasehold improvements by December 1, 1999 by reason of any of the following each of which are considered to be “Tenant Delay” as that term is used herein:

  

	 	(a)	 	Tenant’s specification of materials, finishes or installations which because of lead times or other ordering limitations can not be incorporated into the completed Leased
Premises by December 1, 1999; or 

  

	 	(b)	 	Tenant’s failure to submit changes or modifications to the Working Drawings to Architect on a timely basis so as to allow for completion of the Working Drawings on or before
September 1, 1999; 

  

	 	(c)	 	Tenant’s request for materials, finishes or installations other than in the Working Drawings (including any delay occasioned by Tenant’s failure to respond timely to
Landlord’s estimate of changes in cost or construction scheduling in connection with Tenant’s proposed change to the Working Drawings); or 

  

 2 

	 	(d)	 	Tenant’s changes in the Working Drawings subsequent to the date hereof; or 

  

	 	(e)	 	The non-performance by a person, firm or corporation employed by Tenant and delay of completion of said work by said person, firm or corporation; or 

  

	 	(f)	 	Tenant’s request that Landlord re-bid all or any part of the work or materials. 

  

	7.	 	In the event of Tenant Delay, then, in addition to all of Tenant’s other obligations hereunder, Tenant will pay to Landlord, upon demand, an amount equal to the product of: (i)
the number of days of Tenant delay; multiplied by (ii) a per diem amount determined by prorating the initial month Rent amount which Tenant will be required to pay after the Commencement Date. If the Lease Term does not commence on the first day of
a month: (i) the Lease Term shall be extended so as to give effect to the full stated term plus the number of days remaining in such partial month; and (ii) the “first annual period of the Lease Term” shall mean the number of days
remaining in such partial month plus the first full twelve (12) months of the Lease Term commencing on the first day of the month following such partial month. After the substantial completion of the leasehold improvements, Landlord and Tenant will,
at the request of either, execute a declaration of the Commencement Date, which shall be made a part of the Lease. 

  

	8.	 	Failure by Tenant to pay timely any sum due hereunder after any applicable cure period shall constitute an Event of Default by Tenant under the Lease giving rise to all remedies
available to Landlord under the Lease, and also giving rise to all other remedies available to Landlord at law for such nonpayment. Any such amounts billed to Tenant shall be paid by Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice. All past
due amounts shall bear interest at the Interest Rate. 

  

	9.	 	Landlord shall permit Tenant and its agents to enter the Leased Premises prior to the Commencement Date, at the same time that Landlord’s contractors are working in the Leased
Premises, in order that Tenant may perform such other work and decorations through its own contractors approved in advance in writing by Landlord and in a manner and upon terms and conditions and at times satisfactory to and approved in advance in
writing by Landlord. This license to enter prior to the Commencement Date is conditioned upon Tenant’s workmen and mechanics working in harmony and not interfering with the workmen employed by Landlord, Landlord’s mechanics or contractors,
or by any other Tenant or their contractors. Such license is further conditioned upon Tenant’s providing insurance coverage and certificates as required under the terms of the Lease. If at any time such entry shall cause disharmony or
interference to other contractors or labor, including strikes or other work stoppage, this license may be immediately withdrawn by Landlord upon notice to Tenant. Such entry shall be deemed to be under all of the terms, covenants, provisions and
conditions of the Lease except as to the covenant to pay Rent. Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to any of the Tenant’s decorations or installations so made prior to the Commencement Date,
the same being solely at Tenant’s risk. 

  
 EXECUTED as of August 12, 1999.
