LEASE
This Lease Agreement (this “Lease”) is entered into as of the Lease Date between Landlord and Tenant (as each such term is defined in the Basic Lease Information).
1.Definitions and Basic Provisions.  The definitions and basic provisions set forth in the Basic Lease Information (the “Basic Lease Information”) are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.  Additionally, the following terms shall have the following meanings when used in this Lease:  “Affiliate” means any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the party in question; “Building’s Structure” means the Building’s roof and roof membrane, elevator shafts, footings, foundations, structural portions of load-bearing walls, structural floors and subfloors, structural columns and beams, and curtain walls; “Building’s Systems” means the Building’s HVAC, life-safety, plumbing, electrical, mechanical and elevator systems; “including” means including, without limitation; “Laws” means all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, building codes and standards, rules and regulations, all court orders, governmental directives, and governmental orders and all interpretations of the foregoing, and all restrictive covenants affecting the Project, and “Law” means any of the foregoing; “Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment” means any of Tenant’s equipment or other property that may be located on or about the Project or the Complex (other than inside the Premises); and “Tenant Party” means any of the following persons:  Tenant; any assignees claiming by, through or under Tenant; any subtenants claiming by, through or under Tenant; and any of their respective agents, contractors, officers, employees, licensees, guests and invitees.
2.    Lease Grant.  Subject to the terms of this Lease, Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the Premises.
3.    Tender of Possession.  Landlord and Tenant presently anticipate that possession of the Premises will be tendered to Tenant in the condition required by this Lease on or about the date that is six months following Tenant’s full execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord, the “Estimated Delivery Date”).  If Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises in such condition to Tenant by the Estimated Delivery Date, then • the validity of this Lease shall not be affected or impaired thereby, • Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or be liable for damages therefor, and • Tenant shall accept possession of the Premises when Landlord tenders possession thereof to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord does not tender possession of the Premises to Tenant in the condition required by this Lease by the Liquidated Damages Date (defined below), Tenant may offset from its Basic Rent obligations first accruing following the Commencement Date, liquidated damages equal to one day of Basic Rent first payable by Tenant under this Lease per day for each day after such Liquidated Damages Date and ending on the day Landlord tenders possession of the Premises to Tenant in the condition required by this Lease, provided further that the Partial Abatement Period shall be extended one day for each day that Basic Rent is abated after the Liquidated Damages Date.  As used herein, “Liquidated Damages Date” means the date on which the Full Abatement Period terminates, plus the number of Force Majeure Delay Days and the number of Tenant Delay Days; and “Force Majeure Delay Days” means any delay in Landlord’s tendering possession of the Premises to Tenant for the reasons specified in Section 25.3 of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord does not deliver the Premises to Tenant by the Delayed Delivery Termination Date (defined below), Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering to Landlord written notice thereof at any time before the earlier of (1) ten days following the Delayed Delivery Termination Date or (2) the date on which Landlord delivers the Premises to Tenant in the condition required by this Lease.  The termination right afforded to Tenant under this Section 3 shall be Tenant’s sole remedy for Landlord’s failure to timely deliver the Premises to Tenant.  Time is of the essence for the delivery of Tenant’s termination notice under this Section 3; accordingly, if Tenant fails timely to deliver any such notice, Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease under this Section 3 shall expire.  As used herein, “Delayed Delivery Termination Date” means 365 days after the Estimated Delivery Date. The abatement rights and termination rights afforded to Tenant under this Section 3 shall be Tenant’s sole remedies for Landlord’s failure to timely tender possession of the Premises to Tenant.  By occupying the Premises, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Premises in their condition as of the date of such occupancy, subject to Landlord’s completion of the Landlord Work (as defined in Exhibit D hereto) and punch-list items that remain to be performed by Landlord, if any.  Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto confirming  the Commencement Date and the expiration date of the initial Term,  that Tenant has accepted the Premises, and  that Landlord has performed all of its obligations with respect to the Premises (except 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    1    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

for punch-list items specified in such letter); however, the failure of the parties to execute such letter shall not defer the Commencement Date or otherwise invalidate this Lease.  Entry into the Premises by any Tenant Party prior to the Commencement Date shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Lease excepting only those requiring the payment of Basic Rent and Additional Rent and before Tenant may occupy the Premises to conduct business therein, Tenant shall, at its expense, obtain and deliver to Landlord a certificate of occupancy from the appropriate governmental authority for the Premises.
4.    Rent.
4.1    Payment.  Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord Rent, without notice, demand, deduction or set off (except as otherwise expressly provided herein), by good and sufficient check drawn on a national banking association, or, at either party’s election, by electronic or wire transfer, at Landlord’s address provided for in this Lease or such other address as may be specified in writing by Landlord, and shall be accompanied by all applicable state and local sales or use taxes; provided, that following any monetary default by Tenant, Landlord shall be permitted to require alternative methods of payment, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion.  The obligations of Tenant to pay Rent to Landlord and the obligations of Landlord under this Lease are independent obligations.  Basic Rent, adjusted as herein provided, shall be payable monthly in advance.  The first monthly installment of Basic Rent with respect to 9,000 rentable square feet of the Premises shall be due on or before the first day after the end of the Full Abatement Period; thereafter, Basic Rent with respect to the 9,000 rentable square feet of the Premises shall be payable on the first day of each calendar month through the expiration of the Partial Abatement Period; thereafter the first monthly installment of Basic Rent with respect to 6,781 rentable square feet shall be due on or before the first date after the end of the Partial Abatement Period for any partial month remaining after the end of the Partial Abatement Period; and thereafter, Basic Rent for the entire premises shall be due and payable on the first day of the first full calendar month following the expiration of the Partial Abatement Period through the end of the Term.  The monthly Basic Rent for any partial month at the beginning of the Term shall equal the product of  1/365 of the annual Basic Rent in effect during the partial month and the number of days in the partial month, and such Basic Rent payment is due upon execution of this Lease by Tenant; however, if the Commencement Date is not a fixed date that is ascertainable as of the Lease Date, then such Basic Rent payment for any fractional calendar month at the beginning of the Term shall be due by Tenant on the Commencement Date.  Payments of Basic Rent for any fractional calendar month at the end of the Term shall be similarly prorated.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly installments of Additional Rent and any parking rent payable pursuant to Exhibit G in advance on the first day of each calendar month and otherwise on the same terms and conditions described above with respect to Basic Rent.  Unless a shorter time period is specified in this Lease, all payments of miscellaneous Rent charges hereunder (that is, all Rent other than Basic Rent and Additional Rent) shall be due and payable within 30 days following Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of an invoice therefor.
4.2    Additional Rent.
4.2.1    Operating Costs.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs.  Landlord shall make a good faith estimate of Operating Costs to be due by Tenant for any calendar year or part thereof during the Term.  During each calendar year or partial calendar year of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance on the first day of each calendar month, an amount equal to Tenant’s estimated Operating Costs for such calendar year or part thereof divided by the number of months therein.  From time to time, Landlord may reasonably estimate and re-estimate the Operating Costs to be due by Tenant and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant.  Thereafter, the monthly installments of Operating Costs payable by Tenant shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations so that, by the end of the calendar year in question, Tenant shall have paid all of the Operating Costs as estimated by Landlord.  Any amounts paid based on such an estimate shall be subject to adjustment as herein provided when actual Operating Costs are available for each calendar year.
4.2.2    Operating Costs Defined.  The term “Operating Costs” means all costs, expenses and disbursements (subject to the limitations set forth below) that Landlord incurs in connection with the ownership, operation, and maintenance of the Project and performing Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, in each case, determined in accordance with sound accounting principles consistently applied, including the following costs:  • wages and salaries of all on-site employees at or below the grade of senior building manager 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    2    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

engaged in the operation, maintenance or security of the Project (together with Landlord’s reasonable allocation of expenses of off-site employees at or below the grade of senior building manager who perform a portion of their services in connection with the operation, maintenance or security of the Project including accounting personnel), including taxes, insurance and benefits relating thereto; • all supplies, materials and computer software licenses used in the operation, maintenance, repair, replacement, and security of the Project; • costs for improvements made to the Project which, although capital in nature, are expected to reduce the normal operating costs (including all utility costs) of the Project, as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate over the time period reasonably estimated by Landlord to recover the costs thereof taking into consideration the anticipated cost savings, as determined by Landlord using its good faith, commercially reasonable judgment, as well as capital improvements made in order to comply with any Law not currently applicable to the Project, any Law not in effect at the time the Project was constructed, or any Law hereafter promulgated by any governmental authority, or any amendment to or any interpretation hereafter rendered with respect to any existing Law that have the effect of changing the legal requirements applicable to the Project from those currently in effect, as amortized using a commercially reasonable interest rate over the useful economic life of such improvements as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion; • cost of all utilities, except the cost of separately metered or submetered utilities paid separately by the Project’s tenants; • insurance expenses, including the cost of any deductibles; • repairs, replacements, and general maintenance of the Project; • fair market rental and other costs with respect to the management office, and any amenities such as any common use fitness facility and/or conference center for the Project; and • service, maintenance and management contracts and fees (payable to Landlord, Landlord’s affiliate or a third-party management company; provided that any costs paid to Landlord or Landlord’s affiliate for management services shall exclude amounts paid in excess of the competitive rates for management services of comparable quality rendered by persons or entities of similar skill, competence and experience for the operation, maintenance, management, repair, replacement, or security of the Project (including alarm service, window cleaning, janitorial, security, landscape maintenance and elevator maintenance).  Landlord shall have the right to allocate costs among different uses of space in the Project if Landlord reasonably determines the costs for operating, maintaining and repairing such different spaces differ from other spaces within the Project.  Operating Costs and Taxes for the Complex may be prorated among the Project and the other buildings of the Complex, as reasonably determined by Landlord.
Operating Costs shall not include costs for  capital improvements made to the Project, other than capital improvements described in Section 4.2.2(c) and except for items which are generally considered maintenance and repair items, such as painting and wall covering of common areas, replacement of carpet or other floor coverings in elevator lobbies and common areas, and the like;  repair, replacements and general maintenance paid by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third parties;  interest, amortization or other payments on loans to Landlord;  depreciation;  leasing commissions;  legal expenses for services, other than those that benefit the Project tenants generally (e.g., negotiation of vendor contracts);  renovating or otherwise improving space for specific occupants of the Project or vacant leasable space in the Project, other than costs for repairs, maintenance and compliance with Laws provided or made available to the Project tenants generally;  Taxes;  federal income taxes imposed on or measured by the income of Landlord from the operation of the Project; — advertising and promotional costs; and — management fees exclusive of salary recoveries, in excess of 5% of the gross revenues of the Project.
4.2.3    Taxes; Taxes Defined.  Tenant shall also pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes.  Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes in the same manner as provided above for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs.  “Taxes” means taxes, assessments, and governmental charges or fees whether federal, state, county or municipal, and whether they be by taxing districts or authorities presently taxing or by others, subsequently created or otherwise, and any other taxes and assessments (including non-governmental assessments and charges [including assessments and charges from any applicable property owner’s association] under any restrictive covenant, declaration of covenants, restrictions and easements or other private agreement that are not treated as part of Operating Costs) now or hereafter attributable to the Project (or its operation), excluding, however, penalties and interest thereon and federal and state taxes on income.  However, if the present method of taxation changes so that in lieu of or in addition to the whole or any part of any Taxes, there is levied on Landlord a capital tax directly on the rents or revenues received 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    3    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

therefrom or a franchise tax, margin tax, assessment, or charge based, in whole or in part, upon such rents or revenues for the Project, then all such taxes, assessments, or charges, or the part thereof so based, shall be deemed to be included within the term “Taxes” for purposes hereof.  Taxes shall include the costs of consultants retained in an effort to lower taxes and all costs incurred in disputing any taxes or in seeking to lower the tax valuation of the Project.  For property tax purposes, Tenant waives all rights to protest or appeal the appraised value of the Premises, as well as the Project, and all rights to receive notices of reappraisement.  From time to time during any calendar year, Landlord may estimate or re-estimate the Taxes to be due by Tenant for that calendar year and deliver a copy of the estimate or re-estimate to Tenant.  Thereafter, the monthly installments of Taxes payable by Tenant shall be appropriately adjusted in accordance with the estimations.
4.2.4    Reconciliation Statement.  By April 30 of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of Operating Costs for the previous year, adjusted as provided in Section 4.2.5, and of the Taxes for the previous year (the “Reconciliation Statement”).  If Tenant’s estimated payments of Operating Costs or Taxes under this Section 4.2 for the year covered by the Reconciliation Statement  exceed Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such items as indicated in the Reconciliation Statement, then Landlord shall credit or reimburse Tenant for such excess within 30 days; likewise, if Tenant’s estimated payments of Operating Costs or Taxes under this Section 4.2 for such year are less than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such items as indicated in the Reconciliation Statement, then Tenant shall pay Landlord such deficiency within 30 days of invoice from Landlord.
4.2.5    Gross Up.  With respect to any calendar year or partial calendar year in which the Project is not occupied to the extent of 95% of the rentable area thereof, or Landlord is not supplying comparable services to 95% of the rentable area thereof, the Operating Costs for such period which vary with the occupancy of the Project or level of service shall, for the purposes hereof, be increased to the amount which would have been incurred had the Project been occupied to the extent of 95% of the rentable area thereof and Landlord had been supplying comparable services to 95% of the rentable area thereof.
4.2.6    Cost Pools.  If Landlord is providing different types or quantity of services to different types of tenants in the Project (e.g., retail tenants versus office tenants or single-tenant building tenants versus multi-tenant building tenants), (a) Landlord may establish different cost pools for different tenant types and allocate various components of Additional Rent using Landlord’s commercially reasonable discretion, and (b) notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, in calculating Tenant’s Proportionate Share of certain items (or components thereof), the rentable area of the Project (as used in the calculation of Tenant’s Proportionate Share) shall exclude, with regard to specific Operating Cost items, the rentable square feet of all other tenants in the Project who do not include such items within the calculation of such other tenant’s share of Operating Costs because such other tenants are individually responsible for the item in question (e.g., if a tenant provides its own janitorial services and the cost of janitorial services is not part of such tenant’s Operating Costs obligation, that tenant’s rentable square feet shall be excluded from the rentable area of the Project in determining Tenant’s Proportionate Share of janitorial costs).
4.2.7    Tenant’s Inspection Right.  Provided no Event of Default then exists (or if an Event of Default exists when Tenant provides written notice that Tenant objects to the calculation of Additional Rent on an annual Reconciliation Statement and Tenant cures such Event of Default within 30 days), and provided that Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent for the period in question exceeds the amounts applied in calculating Additional Rent for the Base Year with respect to any Reconciliation Statement relating to any year following the Base Year, after receiving an annual Reconciliation Statement and giving Landlord 30 days’ prior written notice thereof, Tenant may inspect or audit Landlord’s records relating to Additional Rent for the period of time covered by such Reconciliation Statement in accordance with the following provisions.  If Tenant fails to object to the calculation of Additional Rent on an annual Reconciliation Statement within 30 days after the statement has been delivered to Tenant, or if Tenant fails to conclude its audit or inspection within 90 days after the statement has been delivered to Tenant, then Tenant shall have waived its right to object to the calculation of Additional Rent for the year in question and the calculation of Additional Rent set forth on such statement shall be final.  Tenant’s audit or inspection shall be conducted where Landlord maintains its books and records, shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Landlord’s business, and 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    4    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

shall be conducted only during business hours reasonably designated by Landlord.  Tenant shall pay the cost of such audit or inspection, including, after the first eight hours of such audit or inspection conducted in Landlord’s offices, $150 per each additional hour of Landlord’s or the building manager’s employee time devoted to such inspection or audit to reimburse Landlord for its overhead costs allocable to the inspection or audit, unless the total Operating Costs for the period in question is determined to be overstated by more than 5% in the aggregate, in which case Landlord shall pay the audit cost (not to exceed $3,500.00).  Tenant may not conduct an inspection or have an audit performed more than once during any calendar year.  Tenant or the accounting firm conducting such audit shall, at no charge to Landlord, submit its audit report in draft form to Landlord for Landlord’s review and comment before the final approved audit report is submitted to Landlord, and any reasonable comments by Landlord shall be incorporated into the final audit report.  If such inspection or audit reveals that an error was made in the Additional Rent previously charged to Tenant, then Landlord shall refund to Tenant any overpayment of any such costs, or Tenant shall pay to Landlord any underpayment of any such costs, as the case may be, within 30 days after notification thereof.  If the audit determines an expense or cost should not be included in Additional Rent, an adjustment shall be made to both the year subject to the inspection or audit and the Base Year so costs and expenses for each year are consistently applied.  Provided Landlord’s accounting for Additional Rent is consistent with the terms of this Lease, Landlord’s good faith judgment regarding the proper interpretation of this Lease and the proper accounting for Additional Rent shall be binding on Tenant in connection with any such audit or inspection.  Tenant shall maintain the results of each such audit or inspection confidential and shall not be permitted to use any third party to perform such audit or inspection, other than an independent firm of certified public accountants (a) reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (b) which is not compensated on a contingency fee basis or in any other manner which is dependent upon the results of such audit or inspection (and Tenant shall deliver the fee agreement or other similar evidence of such fee arrangement to Landlord upon request), (c) which agrees with Landlord in writing to maintain the results of such audit or inspection confidential, except as required by applicable Law, and (d) which does not represent other tenants of the Project.  Nothing in this Section 4.2.7 shall be construed to limit, suspend or abate Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent when due, including Additional Rent.  Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant’s sole right to audit Landlord’s books and records and to contest the amount of Additional Rent payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section 4.2.7, and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to applicable law to audit such books and records and/or to contest the amount of Additional Rent payable by Tenant.  This provision shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. 
5.    Delinquent Payment; Handling Charges.  All past due payments required of Tenant hereunder, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the lesser of eighteen percent per annum or the maximum lawful rate of interest (such lesser amount is referred to herein as the “Default Rate”); additionally, Landlord, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, may charge Tenant a late fee equal to the greater of • five percent of the delinquent payment, and • $250, to reimburse Landlord for its cost and inconvenience incurred as a consequence of Tenant’s delinquency.  In no event, however, shall the charges permitted under this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Lease, to the extent they are considered to be interest under applicable Law, exceed the maximum lawful commercial rate of interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the late fee referenced above shall not be charged with respect to the first occurrence (but not any subsequent occurrence) during any 12-calendar month period that Tenant fails to make any payment of Additional Rent when due, until five days after Landlord delivers written notice of such delinquency to Tenant.
6.    Security Deposit.  [Intentionally deleted].
7.    Landlord’s Obligations.
7.1    Services.  Landlord shall use all reasonable efforts to furnish to Tenant:  • water at those points of supply provided for general use of tenants of the Building; • the equipment to provide heated and refrigerated air conditioning (“HVAC”) as appropriate, at such temperatures and in such amounts as are standard for comparable buildings with comparable densities and heat loads in the vicinity of the Building (not to exceed the current HVAC system’s capacity existing as of the Lease Date); • janitorial service to the Premises five days per week, other than holidays, for Building-standard installations and such window washing as may from time to time be reasonably required; 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    5    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

• elevators for ingress and egress to the floor on which the Premises are located, in common with other tenants, provided that Landlord may reasonably limit the number of operating elevators during non-business hours and holidays; and • electrical current during normal business hours for electrical energy consumption that does not exceed normal office usage.  If Tenant desires janitorial service at other than normal service times, or HVAC service:   at any time other than between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays and between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. on Saturdays (in each case other than holidays), or  on Sundays or holidays, then such services shall be supplied to Tenant upon the written request (or such other means as may be requested by Landlord) by Tenant delivered to Landlord’s designated property manager before 3:00 p.m. on the business day preceding such extra usage, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord its then standard cost of such services (which shall not be included in Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Costs)  within 30 days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant an invoice therefor.  Tenant acknowledges that the cost components for providing after-hours HVAC service to the Premises are not separately metered; accordingly, Landlord’s determination of after-hours HVAC charges is an estimate of the costs incurred by Landlord in providing such after-hours HVAC service to Tenant.  The costs charged to Tenant for such after-hours service shall include Landlord’s reasonable allocation of the costs for electricity, water, sewage, water treatment, labor, metering, filtering, equipment depreciation, wear and tear and maintenance to provide such service and an administrative fee of 5%.
7.2    Excess Utility Use.  Landlord shall not be required to furnish electrical power for equipment that requires more than 110 volts or other equipment whose electrical energy consumption exceeds normal office usage.  If Tenant’s requirements for or consumption of electricity exceed the electricity to be provided by Landlord as described in Section 7.1, Landlord shall, at Tenant’s expense, make reasonable efforts to supply such service through the then-existing feeders and risers serving the Building and the Premises, provided the additional use of such feeders and risers caused by Tenant’s excess electrical requirements do not adversely affect Landlord’s ability to provide reasonable electrical service to the balance of the Building (as determined by Landlord in the exercise of its reasonable discretion); and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of such service within 30 days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant an invoice therefor.  Landlord may determine the amount of such utility consumption by any verifiable method, including installation of a separate meter or monitor in the Premises installed, maintained, and read by Landlord, at Tenant’s expense.  Tenant shall not install any electrical equipment requiring special wiring or requiring voltage in excess of 110 volts unless approved in advance by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Tenant shall not install any electrical equipment requiring voltage in excess of Building capacity unless approved in advance by Landlord, which approval may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion.  The use of electricity in the Premises shall not exceed the capacity of existing feeders and risers to or wiring in the Premises.  Any risers or wiring required to meet Tenant’s excess electrical requirements shall, upon Tenant’s written request, be installed by Landlord, at Tenant’s cost, if, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the same are necessary and shall not cause permanent damage to the Building or the Premises, cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition, entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs, or expenses, adversely affect Landlord’s ability to provide reasonable service to the balance of the Building, or interfere with or disturb other tenants of the Building.  If Tenant • uses machines or equipment in the Premises or • operates within the Premises at a density, either of which  affects the temperature otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system or  otherwise overloads any utility, Landlord may install supplemental air conditioning units or other supplemental equipment in the Premises, and the cost thereof, including the cost of design, installation, operation, use, and maintenance, in each case plus an administrative fee of 15% of such cost, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within 30 days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant an invoice therefor.
7.3    Restoration of Services; Abatement.  Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to restore any service required of it under Section 7.1 that becomes unavailable; however, such unavailability shall not render Landlord liable for any damages caused thereby, be a constructive eviction of Tenant, constitute a breach of any implied warranty, or, except as provided in the next sentence, entitle Tenant to any abatement of Tenant’s obligations hereunder.  If, however, Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises because of the unavailability of any such service for a period of 15 consecutive business days following Landlord’s receipt from Tenant of a written notice regarding such unavailability, the restoration of which is within Landlord’s reasonable control, and such unavailability was not caused by a Tenant Party, a governmental directive, or the failure of public utilities to furnish necessary services, then Tenant shall, as its exclusive remedy be entitled to a reasonable abatement of Basic Rent and Additional Rent for each consecutive day (after such 15-day period) that Tenant is so prevented from using the Premises.

BOULDER, CO 80301

7.4    Repair and Maintenance by Landlord.  Landlord shall maintain and repair the common areas of the Project, Building’s Structure, the core portions of the Building’s Systems, the parking areas and other exterior areas of the Project, including driveways, alleys, landscape and grounds of the Project and utility lines in a good condition, consistent with the operation of similar class office buildings in the market in which the Project is located, including maintenance, repair and replacement of the exterior of the Project (including painting), landscaping, sprinkler systems and any items normally associated with the foregoing.  All costs in performing the work described in this Section shall be included in Operating Costs except to the extent excluded by Section 4.2.  In no event shall Landlord be responsible for alterations to the Building’s Structure required by applicable Law because of Tenant’s use of the Premises or alterations or improvements to the Premises made by or for a Tenant Party (which alterations shall be made by Landlord at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and on the same terms and conditions as Landlord performed repairs as described in Section 8.2 below).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall, in its commercially-reasonable discretion, determine whether, and to the extent, repairs or replacements are the appropriate remedial action.
8.    Improvements; Alterations; Repairs; Maintenance.
8.1    Improvements; Alterations.  Except as expressly provided in Exhibit D hereto, improvements to the Premises shall be installed at Tenant’s expense only in accordance with plans and specifications which have been previously submitted to and approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall be governed by the provisions set forth in this Section 8.1.  No alterations or physical additions in or to the Premises (including the installation of systems furniture or other equipment or personal property that affects or otherwise connects to the Building’s Systems) may be made without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; however, Landlord may withhold its consent to any alteration or addition that would • adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Project’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), or • affect (in the sole discretion of Landlord) the  exterior appearance of the Project,  appearance of the Project’s common areas or elevator lobby areas,  quiet enjoyment of other tenants or occupants of the Project, or  provision of services to other occupants of the Project.  To the extent that Landlord grants Tenant the right to use areas within the Project, whether pursuant to the terms of this Lease or through plans and specifications subsequently approved by Landlord (and without implying that Landlord shall grant any such approvals),  in no event may Tenant use more than its Proportionate Share of the areas within the Building or utility capacity made available by Landlord for general tenant usage for Tenant’s installations and operations in the Premises (including chilled water, electricity, telecommunications room space, electrical room space, plenum space and riser space), and  Tenant shall comply with the provisions of this Section with respect to all such items, including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment.  Tenant shall not paint or install lighting or decorations, signs, window or door lettering, or advertising media of any type visible from the exterior of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 8.2 below with respect to the Visible Premises, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord’s consent for repainting, recarpeting, or other alterations, tenant improvements, or physical additions to the Premises which are cosmetic in nature totaling less than $20,000 in any single instance or series of related alterations performed within a six-month period (each a “Minor Alteration”)  (provided that Tenant shall not perform any improvements, alterations or additions to the Premises in stages as a means to subvert this provision), in each case provided that (i) Tenant delivers to Landlord written notice thereof, a list of contractors and subcontractors to perform the work (and certificates of insurance for each such party) and any plans and specifications therefor prior to commencing any such alterations, additions, or improvements (for informational purposes only so long as no consent is required by Landlord as required by this Lease), (ii) the installation thereof does not require the issuance of any building permit or other governmental approval, or involve any core drilling or the configuration or location of any exterior or interior walls of the Building, and (iii) such alterations, additions and improvements will not affect (a) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems, (b) the provision of services to other Building tenants, or (c) the appearance of the Building’s common areas or the exterior of the Building.  For clarity, Tenant must notify Landlord in writing prior to making any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises or elsewhere at the Project regardless of whether Landlord’s consent is required hereunder.   All alterations, additions, and improvements shall be constructed, maintained, and used by Tenant, at its risk and expense, in accordance with all Laws; Landlord’s consent to or approval of any alterations, additions or improvements (or the plans therefor) shall not constitute a representation or warranty by Landlord, nor Landlord’s acceptance, that the same comply with sound 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    7    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

architectural and/or engineering practices or with all applicable Laws, and Tenant shall be solely responsible for ensuring all such compliance.
8.2    Repair and Maintenance by Tenant.  Tenant shall maintain the Premises in a clean, safe, and operable condition, and shall not permit or allow to remain any waste or damage to any portion of the Premises.  If the Premises include, now or hereafter, one or more floors of the Building in their entirety, all corridors and restroom facilities located on such full floor(s) shall be considered to be a part of the Premises.  Additionally, Tenant, at its sole expense, shall repair, replace and maintain in good condition and in accordance with all Laws and the equipment manufacturer’s suggested service programs, all portions of the Premises (excluding the core portion of the Building’s Systems, which shall be maintained by Landlord pursuant to Section 7.4) and Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment and all areas, improvements and systems exclusively serving the Premises, including the branch lines of the plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems, including all duct work, and Tenant shall utilize all of the foregoing items in accordance with the applicable design specifications and capacities.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Lease to the contrary, with respect to any portion of the Premises visible from any common area inside or outside of the Building (the “Visible Premises”), Tenant shall • maintain such Visible Premises, including the furniture, fixtures, equipment and improvements located therein in a neat and first-class condition throughout the Term and any extension thereof, • not use the Visible Premises for storage, • obtain Landlord’s prior written consent as to the interior paint color, signage, displays, carpeting, furniture, fixtures and equipment contained in the Visible Premises, • complete within the Visible Premises any requested cleaning within one business day after Landlord’s written request therefor, and • complete within the Visible Premises any requested repairs, alterations or changes within ten business days after Landlord’s written request therefor, or within such additional time period as may be reasonably necessary to complete such repair, alteration or change, not to exceed 45 days.  Tenant shall repair or replace, subject to Landlord’s direction and supervision, any damage to the Project caused by a Tenant Party.  If any such damage occurs outside of the Premises, or if such damage occurs inside the Premises but affects the Building’s Systems and/or Building’s Structure or any other area outside the Premises, then Landlord may elect to repair such damage at Tenant’s expense, rather than having Tenant repair such damage.  If  Tenant fails to commence to make such repairs or replacements within 15 days after the occurrence of such damage and thereafter diligently pursue the completion thereof (or, in the case of an emergency, such shorter period of time as is reasonable given the circumstances), or  notwithstanding such diligence, Tenant fails to complete such repairs or replacements within 30 days after the occurrence of such damage (or, in the case of an emergency, such shorter period of time as is reasonable given the circumstances), or within such additional time period up to an additional 30 days, as may be reasonably necessary to complete such repair or replacement, then Landlord may make the same at Tenant’s cost.  The cost of all maintenance, repair or replacement work performed by Landlord under this Section 8, in each case plus an administrative fee of 15% of such cost, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within 30 days after Landlord has invoiced Tenant therefor.
8.3    Performance of Work.  All work described in this Section 8 shall be performed only by Landlord or by contractors and subcontractors reasonably approved in writing by Landlord and, except for Minor Alterations, only in accordance with plans and specifications reasonably approved by Landlord in writing.  If Landlord elects, in its sole discretion, to supervise any work described in this Section 8 which requires Landlord’s approval, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction management fee equal to 5% of the cost of such work.  Tenant shall cause all contractors and subcontractors to procure and maintain insurance coverage naming Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee, Landlord’s property management company and Landlord’s asset management company as additional insureds against such risks, in such amounts, and with such companies as Landlord may reasonably require.  Tenant shall provide Landlord with the identities, mailing addresses and telephone numbers of all persons performing work or supplying materials prior to beginning such construction and Landlord may post on and about the Premises notices of non-responsibility pursuant to applicable Laws.  All such work shall be performed in accordance with all Laws and in a good and workmanlike manner so as not to damage the Building (including the Premises, the Building’s Structure and the Building’s Systems) and shall use materials of a quality that is at least equal to the quality designated by Landlord as the minimum standard for the Building, and in such manner as to cause a minimum of disruption to the other occupants of the Project and interference with other construction in progress and with the transaction of business in the Project and the Complex.  Landlord may designate reasonable rules, regulations and procedures for the performance of all such work in the Building (including insurance requirements for contractors) and, to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid disruption to the occupants of the Building, shall have the right to designate the time when such work may be performed.  All such work which may affect the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems must be approved by the Project’s 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    8    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

engineer of record, at Tenant’s expense and, at Landlord’s election, must be performed by Landlord’s usual contractor for such work.  All work affecting the roof of the Building must be performed by Landlord’s roofing contractor and no such work will be permitted if it would void or reduce or otherwise adversely affect the warranty on the roof.  Upon completion of any work described in this Section 8, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with accurate reproducible “as-built” CADD files of the improvements as constructed.
8.4    Mechanic’s Liens.  All work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or at the request of, or alleged to have been incurred by or at the request of, a Tenant Party shall be deemed authorized and ordered by Tenant only, and Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s or construction liens to be filed against the Premises or the Project in connection therewith.  At all times during which any Tenant Party is engaged in making improvements to the Premises, Tenant shall, all as provided in Colorado Revised Statutes § 38-22-105(2), post and keep posted a written notice in a conspicuous place advising all contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers that Landlord’s interest in the Premises, the Building and the Project is not subject to a mechanic’s lien. Tenant shall provide to Landlord a photo depicting the posting and a written certification of the date on which the photo was taken and on which the first improvement work was performed. The posting shall be performed and the photo taken within five days of commencement of the improvements.  Upon completion of any such work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord final unconditional lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen who performed such work in a form approved by Landlord.  If such a lien is filed, then Tenant shall, within ten business days after Landlord has delivered notice of the filing thereof to Tenant (or such earlier time period as may be necessary to prevent the forfeiture of the Premises, the Project or any interest of Landlord therein or the imposition of a civil or criminal fine with respect thereto), either • pay the amount of the lien and cause the lien to be released of record, • provide adequate evidence to landlord of — the approval of a corporate surety bond by a judge of the district court of Denver County, Colorado, as required by C.R.S § 38022-131 and — the release of the lien of record, or • diligently contest such lien and deliver to Landlord security reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall nonetheless cause such lien to be released of record by the posting of adequate security with a court of competent jurisdiction as provided by Law.  If Tenant fails to timely take any such action, then Landlord may pay the lien claim, and any amounts so paid, including expenses and interest, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within ten days after Landlord has invoiced Tenant therefor.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that their relationship is and shall be solely that of “landlord-tenant” (thereby excluding a relationship of “owner-contractor,” “owner-agent” or other similar relationships) and that Tenant is not authorized to act as Landlord’s common law agent or construction agent in connection with any work performed in the Premises.  Accordingly, all materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics, laborers and any other persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant, any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant or any other Tenant Party for the furnishing of any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment with respect to any portion of the Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end of the Term, are hereby charged with notice that they look exclusively to Tenant to obtain payment for same.  Nothing herein shall be deemed a consent by Landlord to any liens being placed upon the Premises, the Project or Landlord’s interest therein due to any work performed by or for Tenant or deemed to give any contractor or subcontractor or materialman any right or interest in any funds held by Landlord to reimburse Tenant for any portion of the cost of such work.  Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and its agents and representatives from and against all claims, demands, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in any way arising from or relating to the failure by any Tenant Party to pay for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligations incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party (except to the except that payment of the same is the responsibility of Landlord as expressly provided in Exhibit D hereto).  This indemnity provision shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease.
9.    Use.
9.1    Permitted Use.  Tenant shall continuously occupy and use the Premises only for the Permitted Use and shall comply with all Laws relating to the use, condition, access to, and occupancy of the Premises and will not commit waste, overload the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems or subject the Premises to use that would damage the Premises.  Tenant may use the Premises after normal business hours; however, such hours of operation shall not affect (a) the normal Building hours specified in Section 7.1, or (b) Tenant’s obligation to request and pay for, among other things, after-hours HVAC service as provided in Section 7.1 and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant operating in the Premises beyond the normal Building hours specified in Section 7.1, including any additional cost and expense to provide the services contemplated by this Lease, such as any additional 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    9    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

janitorial and day porter service to the common areas, and such costs and services shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within 30 days following Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of an invoice therefor, and such costs shall not be included in Operating Costs.  Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, as between Landlord and Tenant, • as of the Commencement Date, Tenant shall bear the risk of complying with Title III of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, any state laws governing handicapped access or architectural barriers, and all rules, regulations, and guidelines promulgated under such laws, as amended from time to time (the “Disabilities Acts”) in the Premises, other than compliance related to the condition of the Premises on the Commencement Date, which Tenant has provided written notice to Landlord within six months after the Commencement Date, that is required pursuant to the Disabilities Acts in effect on the Commencement Date (which risk and responsibility shall be borne by Landlord) and • Landlord shall bear the risk of complying with the Disabilities Acts in the common areas of the Building, other than compliance that is necessitated by the use of the Premises for other than the Permitted Use or as a result of any alterations or additions, including any initial tenant improvement work, made by or on behalf of a Tenant Party (which risk and responsibility shall be borne by Tenant).  The Premises shall not be used for any use which is disreputable, creates extraordinary fire hazards, or results in an increased rate of insurance on the Project or its contents, or for the storage of any Hazardous Materials (other than de minimis quantities found in typical office supplies [e.g., photocopier toner] and then only in compliance with all Laws and in a reasonable and prudent manner).  Tenant shall not use any substantial portion of the Premises for a “call center,” any other telemarketing use, or any credit processing use.  If, because of a Tenant Party’s acts or omissions or because Tenant vacates the Premises, the rate of insurance on the Building or its contents increases, then such acts or omissions shall be an Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such increase within 30 days after receipt of an invoice therefor, and acceptance of such payment shall not waive any of Landlord’s other rights.  Tenant shall conduct its business and control each other Tenant Party so as not to create any nuisance or unreasonably interfere with other tenants or Landlord in its management of the Project.  
Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that, as of the Lease Date, it does not have any plans to use any of the Premises as a biotech lab.  In the event that, in the future, Tenant desires to operate a biotech lab in the Premises, such use being a Permitted Use, Landlord and Tenant agree to negotiate in good faith to amend this Lease as necessary to reasonably accommodate Tenant’s specific intended use. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any space operated as a biotech lab shall not exceed 5,000 rentable square feet of the Premises unless agreed to in writing by Landlord, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion.     During lease amendment negotiations, and at least 30 days prior to commencement of the lab use, Tenant will provide Landlord with a list of  Hazardous Materials (other than de minimis quantities found in typical office supplies [e.g., photocopier toner]) that Tenant will use and store in the Premises, such list to consist of those materials Tenant regularly uses in a majority of its biotech lab spaces.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if any building permits are required for Tenant’s biotech lab use, Tenant shall not be required to notify Landlord of any intended storage, use, or handling of Hazardous Materials prior to Tenant’s receipt of such building permits.  Such storage, use and handling shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, and Landlord shall consider the nature of Tenant’s business when making such determination, and in accordance with all applicable Laws, including, without limitation, applicable regulations of the City of Boulder, including without limitation all applicable regulations of the City of Boulder fire department.  In connection with Tenant’s use and storage of such materials, Landlord may require, in Landlord’s sole discretion, that Tenant maintain pollution legal liability insurance, in an amount reasonably acceptable to Landlord, insuring against claims and liability for bodily injury, death, damage to Premises and Project (including loss of use of property), legal defense, investigation, removal and remediation of Hazardous Materials, and personal injury arising out of the operation, use or occupancy of the Premises and the Project, and otherwise in compliance with the requirements in Section 11.  If Tenant operates a biotech lab in the Premises in compliance with the terms if this Section and this Lease, Landlord acknowledges that Tenant may maintain certain confidential information regarding scientific and medical research, as well as store and utilize certain sensitive, volatile or other Hazardous Materials at the Premises (in accordance with all requirements of this Lease, as may be amended in writing to accommodate the specific Permitted Use), which information and/or materials must not be generally accessible to Landlord or its agents or representatives.  Accordingly, Tenant may designate the biotech lab as a secure area in a written notice provided to Landlord.  Except in cases of real or apparent emergency, in which case no approval shall be required, Landlord, Landlord’s agents or representatives, Landlord’s Mortgagee, and prospective purchasers, lenders and tenants shall be entitled to inspect or access such secure areas only with Tenant’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and upon reasonable advance written notice, in accordance with Tenant’s reasonable security requirements (e.g., use of personal protective equipment) and Tenant shall be permitted to provide an employee of Tenant to accompany Landlord and/or such third 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    10    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

parties.  To be considered a secured area, Tenant shall clearly label and install conspicuous signage on such area clearly designating such area as being a secure area.  To the extent that Landlord or its contractors are prevented from entering any such secure areas, Landlord shall have no obligation to provide services to such areas, including janitorial services.  In the event of an emergency, Landlord may acquire access to the Premises by any means necessary, including the immediate destruction of the locks and/or doors.

9.2    Density Limitations.  Tenant may have in the Premises a population density as a whole up to, but not to exceed, one person for each 150 rentable square feet in the Premises. Tenant and Landlord agree that such population density may from time to time exceed one person for each 150 rentable square feet in the Premises on a temporary basis for meetings, conferences and other events of a temporary nature. To the extent any enhancements are required by Law to be made to the interior of the Premises as a result of any increase of population density above one person for each 150 rentable square feet, Tenant shall promptly perform and pay for any such work.
10.    Assignment and Subletting.
10.1    Transfers.  Except as provided in Section 10.8, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, • assign, transfer, or encumber this Lease or any estate or interest herein, whether directly or by operation of law, • permit any other entity to become Tenant hereunder by merger, consolidation, or other reorganization, • if Tenant is an entity other than a corporation whose stock is publicly traded, permit the transfer of an ownership interest in Tenant so as to result in a change in the current direct or indirect control of Tenant, • sublet any portion of the Premises, • grant any license, concession, or other right of occupancy of any portion of the Premises, • permit the use of the Premises by any parties other than Tenant or Tenant Parties, or • sell or otherwise transfer, in one or more transactions, a majority of Tenant’s assets (any of the events listed in Section 10.1(a) through 10.1(g) being a “Transfer”).
10.2    Consent Standards.  Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any assignment of Tenant’s entire interest in this Lease or subletting of the Premises, provided that the proposed transferee • is creditworthy, • will use the Premises for the Permitted Use (thus, excluding, without limitation, uses for credit processing and telemarketing) and will not use the Premises in any manner that would conflict with any exclusive use agreement or other similar agreement entered into by Landlord with any other tenant of the Project or the Complex, • will not use the Premises, Building or Project in a manner that would materially increase Operating Costs or the pedestrian or vehicular traffic to the Premises, Building or Project, • is not a governmental or quasi-governmental entity, or subdivision or agency thereof, or any other entity entitled to the defense of sovereign immunity, • is not another occupant of the Project or the Complex or an Affiliate of such occupant, • is not currently and has not in the past been involved in litigation with Landlord or any of its Affiliates, • meets Landlord’s reasonable standards for tenants of the Project and is otherwise compatible with the character of the occupancy of the Project and the Complex, and • is not a person or entity with whom Landlord is then, or has been within the six-month period prior to the time Tenant seeks to enter into such assignment or subletting, negotiating to lease space in the Project or the Complex or any Affiliate of any such person or entity; otherwise, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion.  Additionally, Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole discretion to any proposed Transfer if any Event of Default by Tenant then exists.  Any Transfer made while an Event of Default exists hereunder, irrespective whether Landlord’s consent is required hereunder with respect to the Transfer, shall be voidable by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion.  In agreeing to act reasonably, Landlord is agreeing to act in a manner consistent with the standards followed by large institutional owners of commercial real estate and Landlord is permitted to consider the financial terms of the Transfer and the impact of the Transfer on Landlord’s own leasing efforts and the value of the Project.  Landlord may condition its consent to a Transfer on an increase in Tenant’s Letter of Credit or receipt of a guaranty from a suitable party.  Landlord shall not be required to act reasonably in considering any request to pledge or encumber this Lease or any interest therein.
10.3    Request for Consent.  If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to a Transfer, then, at least 15 business days prior to the effective date of the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a written description of all terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, copies of the proposed documentation, and the following information about the proposed transferee:  name and address of the proposed transferee and any entities and persons who own, control or direct the proposed transferee; reasonably satisfactory information about its business and business 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    11    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

history; its proposed use of the Premises; banking, financial, and other credit information; and general references sufficient to enable Landlord to determine the proposed transferee’s creditworthiness and character.  Concurrently with Tenant’s notice of any request for consent to a Transfer, Tenant shall (i) pay to Landlord a fee of $1,000 to defray Landlord’s expenses in reviewing such request, and (ii) reimburse Landlord for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with considering any request for consent to a Transfer.  If Landlord does not consent to a Transfer, Tenant’s sole remedy against Landlord will be an action for specific performance or declaratory relief, and Tenant may not terminate this Lease or seek monetary damages.
10.4    Conditions to Consent.  If Landlord consents to a proposed Transfer, then the proposed transferee shall deliver to Landlord a written agreement whereby it expressly assumes Tenant’s obligations hereunder; however, any transferee of less than all of the space in the Premises shall be liable only for obligations under this Lease that are properly allocable to the space subject to the Transfer for the period of the Transfer.  No Transfer shall release Tenant from its obligations under this Lease, but rather Tenant and its transferee shall be jointly and severally liable therefor.  Landlord’s consent to any Transfer shall not waive Landlord’s rights as to any subsequent Transfers and no subtenant of any portion of the Premises shall be permitted to further sublease any portion of its subleased space.  If an Event of Default occurs while the Premises or any part thereof are subject to a Transfer, then Landlord, in addition to its other remedies, may collect directly from such transferee all rents becoming due to Tenant and apply such rents against Rent.  Tenant authorizes its transferees to make payments of rent directly to Landlord upon receipt of notice from Landlord to do so following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.  Tenant shall pay for the cost of any demising walls or other improvements necessitated by a proposed subletting or assignment.
10.5    Attornment by Subtenants.  Each sublease by Tenant hereunder shall be subject and subordinate to this Lease and to the matters to which this Lease is or shall be subordinate, and each subtenant by entering into a sublease is deemed to have agreed that in the event of termination, re-entry or dispossession by Landlord under this Lease, Landlord may, at its option, take over all of the right, title and interest of Tenant, as sublandlord, under such sublease, and such subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option, attorn to Landlord pursuant to the then executory provisions of such sublease, except that Landlord shall not be • liable for any previous act or omission of Tenant under such sublease, • subject to any counterclaim, offset or defense that such subtenant might have against Tenant, • bound by any previous modification of such sublease not approved by Landlord in writing or by any rent or additional rent or advance rent which such subtenant might have paid for more than the current month to Tenant, and all such rent shall remain due and owing, notwithstanding such advance payment, • bound by any security or advance rental deposit made by such subtenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord and with respect to which such subtenant shall look solely to Tenant for refund or reimbursement, or • obligated to perform any work in the subleased space or to prepare it for occupancy, and in connection with such attornment, the subtenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord any instruments Landlord may reasonably request to evidence and confirm such attornment.  Each subtenant or licensee of Tenant shall be deemed, automatically upon and as a condition of its occupying or using the Premises or any part thereof, to have agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10.5.  The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall be self-operative, and no further instrument shall be required to give effect to this provision.
10.6    Cancellation.  Landlord may, within 30 days after submission of Tenant’s written request for Landlord’s consent to an assignment or subletting (in each case to a party other than a Permitted Transferee) of all or substantially all of the Premises (whether individually or in the aggregate with all other subleases then in existence), or, regardless of the number of rentable square feet subject to the proposed sublease, is for a sublease term of all or substantially all of the remaining Term of this Lease (assuming, for purposes of such calculation, that the proposed subtenant exercises all available renewal options granted to such proposed subtenant), cancel this Lease as to the portion of the Premises proposed to be sublet or assigned as of the date the proposed Transfer is to be effective.  If Landlord cancels this Lease as to any portion of the Premises, then this Lease shall cease for such portion of the Premises and Tenant shall pay to Landlord all Rent accrued through the cancellation date relating to the portion of the Premises covered by the proposed Transfer.  Thereafter, Landlord may lease such portion of the Premises to the prospective transferee (or to any other person) without liability to Tenant.
10.7    Additional Compensation.  While no Event of Default exists, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon receipt thereof, 50% of the excess of • all compensation received by Tenant for a Transfer less the actual out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Tenant with unaffiliated third parties (i.e., brokerage commissions and tenant 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    12    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

finish work) in connection with such Transfer (such costs shall be amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Transfer in question) over • the Rent allocable to the portion of the Premises covered thereby. While any Event of Default exists, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, immediately upon receipt thereof, 100% of the excess of (1) all compensation received by Tenant for a Transfer over (2) the Rent allocable to the portion of the Premises covered thereby.
10.8    Permitted Transfers.  Notwithstanding Section 10.1, Tenant may Transfer all or part of its interest in this Lease or all or part of the Premises (a “Permitted Transfer”) to the following types of entities (a “Permitted Transferee”) without the written consent of Landlord:
10.8.1    an Affiliate of Tenant, but only so long as such transferee remains an Affiliate of Tenant;
10.8.2    any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company or other business entity in which or with which Tenant, or its corporate successors or assigns, is merged or consolidated, in accordance with applicable statutory provisions governing merger and consolidation of business entities, so long as • Tenant’s obligations hereunder are assumed by the entity surviving such merger or created by such consolidation; and • the proposed transferee satisfies the Tangible Net Worth/Credit Threshold as of the effective date of the Permitted Transfer; or
10.8.3    any corporation, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company or other business entity acquiring all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets, so long as • Tenant’s obligations hereunder are assumed by the entity acquiring such assets; and • the proposed transferee satisfies the Tangible Net Worth/Credit Threshold as of the effective date of the Permitted Transfer.
Tenant shall notify Landlord of any such Permitted Transfer pursuant to this Section 10.8.  Tenant shall remain liable for the performance of all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder, or if Tenant no longer exists because of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition, the surviving or acquiring entity shall expressly assume in writing the obligations of Tenant hereunder.  Additionally, the Permitted Transferee shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including the Permitted Use, and the use of the Premises by the Permitted Transferee may not violate any other agreements affecting the Premises or the Project, Landlord or other tenants of the Project.  No later than ten business days after the effective date of any Permitted Transfer, Tenant agrees to furnish Landlord with  copies of the instrument effecting any of the foregoing Transfers,  documentation establishing Tenant’s satisfaction of the requirements set forth above applicable to any such Transfer, and  evidence of insurance as required under this Lease with respect to the Permitted Transferee.  The occurrence of a Permitted Transfer shall not waive Landlord’s rights as to any subsequent Transfers, and any subsequent Transfer by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to the terms of this Section 10.  As used herein, the term “Tangible Net Worth/Credit Threshold” shall mean  the proposed Permitted Transferee has a Tangible Net Worth equal to or greater than $200,000,000 as evidenced by financial statements audited by a certified public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and  if the proposed Permitted Transferee has been assigned a Corporate Debt Rating, then such proposed Permitted Transferee’s Corporate Debt Rating satisfies the Corporate Debt Rating Requirement.  As used herein, “Tangible Net Worth” means the excess of total assets over total liabilities, in each case as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied “GAAP”), excluding, however, from the determination of total assets all assets which would be classified as intangible assets under GAAP including goodwill, licenses, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and franchises.  “Corporate Debt Rating” shall mean either a general corporate debt rating or an unsecured corporate debt rating by either Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investor Service (“Moody’s”), and “Corporate Debt Rating Requirement” shall mean a Corporate Debt Rating of BBB or better (as determined by S&P) and Baa2 or better (as determined by Moody’s).  The right to Transfer to an Affiliate pursuant to Section 10.8.1 shall be subject to the condition that such Permitted Transferee remains an Affiliate of Tenant and that on or before such Transfer being effected both Tenant and such Permitted Transferee must enter into an agreement with Landlord, in a form satisfactory to Landlord, Tenant and such Permitted Transferee, each acting reasonably, that if such Permitted Transferee ceases to be an Affiliate of Tenant, it shall so notify Landlord in writing within ten days after such event and, upon the 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    13    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

written request of Landlord, transfer, assign, set over and/or re-assign this Lease and its interest in the Premises, as applicable, to Tenant or, subject to complying with this condition, another Affiliate of Tenant. 
11.    Insurance; Waivers; Subrogation; Indemnity.
11.1    Tenant’s Insurance.  Effective as of the earlier of • the date Tenant enters or occupies the Premises, or • the Commencement Date, and continuing throughout the Term, Tenant shall maintain the following insurance policies:   commercial general liability insurance (including property damage, bodily injury and personal injury and non-owned and hired vehicle coverage) in amounts of $1,000,000 per occurrence in primary coverage, with an additional $5,000,000 in umbrella coverage or, following the expiration of the initial Term, such other amounts as Landlord may from time to time reasonably require (and, if the use and occupancy of the Premises include any activity or matter that is or may be excluded from coverage under a commercial general liability policy [e.g., the sale, service or consumption of alcoholic beverages], Tenant shall obtain such endorsements to the commercial general liability policy or otherwise obtain insurance to insure all liability arising from such activity or matter [including liquor liability, if applicable] in such amounts as Landlord may reasonably require), insuring Tenant (and naming as additional insureds Landlord, Landlord’s property management company, Landlord’s asset management company and, if requested in writing by Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee), against all liability for injury to or death of a person or persons or damage to property arising from the use and occupancy of the Premises and (without implying any consent by Landlord to the installation thereof) the installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment,  cause of loss-special risk form (formerly “all-risk”) insurance (including sprinkler leakage, ordinance and law, sewer back-up, pipe burst, wind-driven rain, water leakage, flood, earthquake, windstorm and collapse coverage) covering the full value of all alterations and improvements and betterments in the Premises, naming Landlord and Landlord’s Mortgagee as additional loss payees as their interests may appear,  cause of loss-special risk form (formerly “all-risk”) insurance covering the full value of all furniture, trade fixtures, equipment and personal property (including property of Tenant or others) in the Premises or otherwise placed in the Project by or on behalf of a Tenant Party (including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment),  contractual liability insurance sufficient to cover Tenant’s indemnity obligations hereunder (but only if such contractual liability insurance is not already included in Tenant’s commercial general liability insurance policy),  commercial auto liability insurance (if applicable) covering automobiles owned, hired or used by Tenant in carrying on its business with limits not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident, insuring Tenant (and naming as additional insureds Landlord, Landlord’s property management company, Landlord’s asset management company and, if requested in writing by Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee),  worker’s compensation insurance as required by applicable state law and employer’s liability insurance with limits not less than $1,000,000 each accident, $1,000,000 disease policy limit, and $1,000,000 disease each employee, and  business interruption insurance in an amount reasonably acceptable to Landlord.  Tenant’s insurance shall be primary and non-contributory when any policy issued to Landlord provides duplicate or similar coverage, and in such circumstance Landlord’s policy will be excess over Tenant’s policy.  Tenant shall furnish to Landlord certificates of such insurance and such other evidence satisfactory to Landlord of the maintenance of all insurance coverages required hereunder at least ten days prior to the earlier of the Commencement Date or the date Tenant enters or occupies the Premises (in any event, within ten days of the effective date of coverage), and at least 15 days prior to each renewal of said insurance, and Tenant shall ensure that each of its policies requires the insurance company to notify Landlord at least 30 days before cancellation or material change of such policy, or if that is not possible, Tenant shall so notify Landlord in writing at least 30 days before such cancellation or material change.  All such insurance policies shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and issued by companies with an A.M. Best rating of A+:VIII or better.  However, no review or approval of any insurance certificate or policy by Landlord shall derogate from or diminish Landlord’s rights or Tenant’s obligations hereunder.  If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing insurance requirements or to deliver to Landlord the certificates or evidence of coverage required herein, Landlord, in addition to any other remedy available pursuant to this Lease or otherwise, may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain such insurance and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the premium costs thereof, plus an administrative fee of 15% of such cost within 30 days after receipt of an invoice therefor.
11.2    Landlord’s Insurance.  Throughout the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall maintain, as a minimum, the following insurance policies:  • property insurance for the Building’s replacement value (excluding property required to be insured by Tenant), less a commercially-reasonable deductible if Landlord so chooses, and • commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than $3,000,000.  Landlord may, but is not obligated to, maintain such other insurance and additional coverages as it may deem necessary.  The cost of all insurance carried 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    14    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

by Landlord with respect to the Project shall be included in Operating Costs.  The foregoing insurance policies and any other insurance carried by Landlord shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under Landlord’s sole control, and Tenant shall have no right or claim to any proceeds thereof or any other rights thereunder.  Any insurance required to be maintained by Landlord may be taken out under a blanket insurance policy or policies covering other buildings, property or insureds in addition to the Building and Landlord.  In such event, the costs of any such blanket insurance policy or policies shall be reasonably allocated to the Project and the other properties covered by such policy or policies as reasonably determined by Landlord and included as part of Operating Costs.  Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord’s indemnity obligations under this Lease shall be limited to the extent any such claim is insured against under the terms of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord (or is required to be maintained by Landlord under the terms of this Lease).
11.3    No Subrogation; Waiver of Property Claims.  Landlord and Tenant each waives any claim it might have against the other for any damage to or theft, destruction, loss, or loss of use of any property, to the extent the same is insured against under any insurance policy of the types described in this Section 11 that covers the Project, the Premises, Landlord’s or Tenant’s fixtures, personal property, leasehold improvements, or business, or is required to be insured against under the terms hereof, regardless of whether the negligence of the other party caused such Loss (defined below).  Additionally, Tenant waives any claim it may have against Landlord for any Loss to the extent such Loss is caused by a terrorist act.  Each party shall cause its insurance carrier to endorse all applicable policies waiving the carrier’s rights of recovery under subrogation or otherwise against the other party.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord, its agents, employees and contractors shall not be liable to Tenant or to any party claiming by, through or under Tenant for (and Tenant hereby releases Landlord and its servants, agents, contractors, employees and invitees from any claim or responsibility for) any damage to or destruction, loss, or loss of use, or theft of any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project or the Complex, caused by casualty, theft, fire, third parties or any other matter or cause, regardless of whether the negligence of any party caused such loss in whole or in part.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not carry insurance on, and shall not be responsible for damage to, any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project or the Complex.
11.4    Indemnity.  Subject to Section 11.3, Tenant shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Landlord and its representatives and agents from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from any injury to or death of any person or the damage to or theft, destruction, loss, or loss of use of, any property or inconvenience (a “Loss”) • occurring in or on the Project (other than within the Premises) to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of any Tenant Party, • occurring in the Premises, or • arising out of the installation, operation, maintenance, repair or removal of any property of any Tenant Party located in or about the Project, including Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment.  It being agreed that clauses (b) and (c) of this indemnity are intended to indemnify Landlord and its agents against the consequences of their own negligence or fault, even when Landlord or its agents are jointly, comparatively, contributively, or concurrently negligent with Tenant, and even though any such claim, cause of action or suit is based upon or alleged to be based upon the strict liability of Landlord or its agents; however, such indemnity shall not apply to the sole or gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord and its agents.  Subject to Section 11.3, Landlord shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tenant and its agents from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) for any Loss arising from any occurrence in or on the Building’s common areas to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents.  The indemnities set forth in this Lease shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease and shall not terminate or be waived, diminished or affected in any manner by any abatement or apportionment of Rent under any provision of this Lease.  If any proceeding is filed for which indemnity is required hereunder, the indemnifying party agrees, upon request therefor, to defend the indemnified party in such proceeding at its sole cost utilizing counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party.
12.    Subordination; Attornment; Notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee.
12.1    Subordination.  This Lease shall be subordinate to any deed of trust, mortgage, or other security instrument (each, a “Mortgage”), or any ground lease, master lease, or primary lease (each, a “Primary Lease”), that now or hereafter covers all or any part of the Premises (the mortgagee under any such Mortgage, beneficiary under any such deed of trust, or the lessor under any such Primary Lease is referred to herein as a “Landlord’s 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    15    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

Mortgagee”).  Any Landlord’s Mortgagee may elect, at any time, unilaterally, to make this Lease superior to its Mortgage, Primary Lease, or other interest in the Premises by so notifying Tenant in writing.  The provisions of this Section shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required; however, in confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord (or such other party designated by Landlord) within ten business days after written request therefor such documentation, in recordable form if required, as a Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request to evidence the subordination of this Lease to such Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Mortgage or Primary Lease (including a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement) or, if the Landlord’s Mortgagee so elects, the subordination of such Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Mortgage or Primary Lease to this Lease.
12.2    Attornment.  Tenant shall attorn to any party succeeding to Landlord’s interest in the Premises, whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease, or otherwise, upon such party’s request, and shall execute such agreements confirming such attornment as such party may reasonably request.
12.3    Notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee.  Tenant shall not seek to enforce any remedy it may have for any default on the part of Landlord without first giving written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, specifying the default in reasonable detail, to any Landlord’s Mortgagee whose address has been given to Tenant, and affording such Landlord’s Mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to perform Landlord’s obligations hereunder.
12.4    Landlord’s Mortgagee’s Protection Provisions.  If Landlord’s Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under this Lease, Landlord’s Mortgagee shall not be:  • liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor (including Landlord); • bound by any rent or additional rent or advance rent which Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior lessor (including Landlord), and all such rent shall remain due and owing, notwithstanding such advance payment; • bound by any security or advance rental deposit made by Tenant which is not delivered or paid over to Landlord’s Mortgagee and with respect to which Tenant shall look solely to Landlord for refund or reimbursement; • bound by any termination, amendment or modification of this Lease made without Landlord’s Mortgagee’s consent and written approval, except for those terminations, amendments and modifications permitted to be made by Landlord without Landlord’s Mortgagee’s consent pursuant to the terms of the loan documents between Landlord and Landlord’s Mortgagee; • subject to the defenses which Tenant might have against any prior lessor (including Landlord); and • subject to the offsets which Tenant might have against any prior lessor (including Landlord) except for those offset rights which  are expressly provided in this Lease,  relate to periods of time following the acquisition of the Building by Landlord’s Mortgagee, and  Tenant has provided written notice to Landlord’s Mortgagee and provided Landlord’s Mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure the event giving rise to such offset event.  Landlord’s Mortgagee shall have no liability or responsibility under or pursuant to the terms of this Lease or otherwise after it ceases to own fee simple title to the Project.  Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to require Landlord’s Mortgagee to see to the application of the proceeds of any loan, and Tenant’s agreements set forth herein shall not be impaired on account of any modification of the documents evidencing and securing any loan.  As used in this Section 12.4, Landlord’s Mortgagee shall include any party succeeding to Landlord’s interest in the Premises, whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease, or otherwise.
13.    Rules and Regulations.  Tenant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Project which are attached hereto as Exhibit C.  Landlord may, from time to time, change such rules and regulations for the safety, care, or cleanliness of the Project and related facilities, provided that such changes are generally applicable to all tenants of the Project whose leases require such compliance, will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises and are enforced by Landlord in a non-discriminatory manner among all tenants whose leases require such compliance.  Tenant shall be responsible for the compliance or noncompliance with such rules and regulations by each Tenant Party.
14.    Condemnation.
14.1    Total Taking.  If the entire Building or Premises are taken by right of eminent domain or conveyed in lieu thereof (a “Taking”), this Lease shall terminate as of the date of the Taking.
14.2    Partial Taking - Tenant’s Rights.  If any part of the Building becomes subject to a Taking and such Taking will prevent Tenant from conducting on a permanent basis its business in the Premises in a manner 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    16    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

reasonably comparable to that conducted immediately before such Taking, then Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date of such Taking by giving written notice to Landlord within 30 days after the Taking, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking.  If Tenant does not terminate this Lease, then Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated on a reasonable basis as to that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the Taking.
14.3    Partial Taking - Landlord’s Rights.  If any material portion, but less than all, of the Building or Project becomes subject to a Taking, or if Landlord is required to pay any of the proceeds arising from a Taking to a Landlord’s Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice thereof to Tenant within 30 days after such Taking, and Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such Taking.  If Landlord does not so terminate this Lease, then this Lease will continue, but if any portion of the Premises has been taken, Basic Rent and Additional Rent shall abate as provided in the last sentence of Section 14.2.
14.4    Award.  If any Taking occurs, then Landlord shall receive the entire award or other compensation for the Project and other improvements taken; however, Tenant may separately pursue a claim (to the extent it will not reduce Landlord’s award) against the condemnor for the value of Tenant’s personal property which Tenant is entitled to remove under this Lease, moving costs and loss of business. 
15.    Fire or Other Casualty.
15.1    Repair Estimate.  If the Premises or the Project are damaged by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Landlord shall, within 90 days after such Casualty, deliver to Tenant a good faith estimate (the “Damage Notice”) of the time needed to repair the damage caused by such Casualty.
15.2    Tenant’s Rights.  If the Premises are damaged by Casualty such that Tenant is prevented from conducting its business in the Premises in a manner reasonably comparable to that conducted immediately before such Casualty and Landlord estimates that the damage caused thereby for which Landlord is responsible to repair under this Lease pursuant to Section 15.4 below cannot be repaired within 270 days after the commencement of repairs (the “Repair Period”), then Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord of its election to terminate within 30 days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant.
15.3    Landlord’s Rights.  If a Casualty occurs and • Landlord estimates that the damage cannot be repaired within the Repair Period, • the damage exceeds 50% of the replacement cost thereof (excluding foundations and footings), as estimated by Landlord, and such damage occurs during the last two years of the Term, • regardless of the extent of damage, the damage is not fully covered by Landlord’s insurance policies or Landlord makes a good faith determination that restoring the damage would be uneconomical, or • Landlord is required to pay any insurance proceeds arising out of the Casualty to a Landlord’s Mortgagee, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving written notice of its election to terminate within 30 days after the Damage Notice has been delivered to Tenant.
15.4    Repair Obligation.  If neither party elects to terminate this Lease following a Casualty, then Landlord shall, within a reasonable time after such Casualty, begin to repair the Premises and shall proceed with reasonable diligence to restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as they existed immediately before such Casualty; however, Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any improvements, alterations or betterments within the Premises (which shall be promptly and with due diligence repaired and restored by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense) or any furniture, equipment, trade fixtures or personal property of Tenant or others in the Premises or the Project, and Landlord’s obligation to repair or restore the Premises shall be limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for the Casualty in question.  If this Lease is terminated under the provisions of this Section 15, Landlord shall be entitled to the full proceeds of the insurance policies providing coverage for all alterations, improvements and betterments in the Premises (and, if Tenant has failed to maintain insurance on such items as required by this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to the proceeds Landlord would have received had Tenant maintained insurance on such items as required by this Lease).
15.5    Abatement of Rent.  If the Premises are damaged by Casualty, Basic Rent and Additional Rent for the portion of the Premises rendered untenantable by the damage shall be abated on a reasonable basis from 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    17    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

the date of damage until the earlier of • completion of Landlord’s repairs, • the date upon which completion of Landlord’s repairs would have occurred but for delays caused by Tenant Parties, or • the date of termination of this Lease by Landlord or Tenant as provided above, as the case may be, unless a Tenant Party caused such damage, in which case, Tenant shall continue to pay Basic Rent and Additional Rent without abatement.
16.    Personal Property Taxes.  Tenant shall be liable for, and shall pay prior to delinquency, all taxes levied or assessed against personal property, furniture, fixtures, betterments, improvements, and alterations placed by any Tenant Party in the Premises or in or on the Building or Project.  If any taxes for which Tenant is liable are levied or assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s property and Landlord elects to pay the same, or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by inclusion of such personal property, furniture, fixtures, betterments, improvements, and alterations and Landlord elects to pay the taxes based on such increase, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within 30 days following written request therefor, the part of such taxes for which Tenant is primarily liable hereunder; however, Landlord shall not pay such amount if Tenant notifies Landlord that it will contest the validity or amount of such taxes before Landlord makes such payment, and thereafter diligently proceeds with such contest in accordance with Law and if the non-payment thereof does not pose a threat of loss or seizure of the Project or interest of Landlord therein or impose any fee or penalty against Landlord.
17.    Events of Default.  Each of the following occurrences shall be an “Event of Default”:
17.1    Payment Default.  Tenant’s failure to pay Rent within five days after Landlord has delivered written notice to Tenant that the same is due which written notice shall run concurrent with any notice required by law, including pursuant to C.R.S. § 13-40-104; however, an Event of Default shall occur hereunder without any obligation of Landlord to give any notice if Tenant fails to pay Rent when due and, during the 12 month interval preceding such failure, Landlord has given Tenant written notice of failure to pay Rent on one or more occasions;
17.2    Abandonment.  Tenant abandons or vacates the Premises or any substantial portion thereof while in default of the payment of Rent;
17.3    Estoppel; Subordination; Financial Reports.  Tenant fails to provide any estoppel certificate, documentation regarding the subordination of this Lease or financial reports after Landlord’s written request therefor pursuant to Section 25.5, Section 12.1, and Section 25.19 respectively, and such failure shall continue for five business days after Landlord’s second written notice thereof to Tenant;
17.4    Insurance.  Tenant fails to procure, maintain and deliver to Landlord evidence of the insurance policies and coverages as required under Section 11.1;
17.5    Mechanic’s Liens.  Tenant fails to pay and release of record, or diligently contest and bond around, any mechanic’s or construction lien filed against the Premises or the Project for any work performed, materials furnished, or obligation incurred by or at the request of a Tenant Party, within the time and in the manner required by Section 8.4;
17.6    Other Defaults.  Tenant’s failure to perform, comply with, or observe any agreement or obligation of Tenant under this Lease other than provided in this Section 17 and the continuance of such failure for a period of more than 30 days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant written notice thereof; however if such failure cannot be cured within such 30-day period and Tenant commences to cure such failure within such 30-day period and thereafter diligently pursues such cure to completion, then such failure shall not be a default unless it is not fully cured within an additional 30 days after the expiration of the first 30-day period; and
17.7    Insolvency.  The filing of a petition by or against Tenant (the term “Tenant” shall include, for the purpose of this Section 17.7, any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations hereunder) • in any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding; • seeking any relief under any state or federal debtor relief law; • for the appointment of a liquidator or receiver for all or substantially all of Tenant’s property or for Tenant’s interest in this Lease; • for the reorganization or modification of Tenant’s capital structure; or • in any assignment for the benefit of creditors proceeding; 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    18    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

however, if such a petition is filed against Tenant, then such filing shall not be an Event of Default unless Tenant fails to have the proceedings initiated by such petition dismissed within 90 days after the filing thereof.
18.    Remedies.  Upon any Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law or equity, take any one or more of the following actions:
18.1    Termination of Lease.  Terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice thereof, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord the sum of • all Rent accrued hereunder through the date of termination, • all amounts due under Section 19.1, and • an amount equal to (but in no event less than zero)  the total Rent that Tenant would have been required to pay for the remainder of the Term discounted to present value at a per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate on the date this Lease is terminated minus one percent, minus  the then present fair rental value of the Premises for such period, similarly discounted; as used herein, “Prime Rate” means the “Prime Rate” as published on the date in question by The Wall Street Journal in its listing of “Money Rates”;
18.2    Termination of Possession.  Terminate Tenant’s right to possess the Premises without terminating this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord • all Rent and other amounts accrued hereunder to the date of termination of possession, • all amounts due from time to time under Section 19.1, and • all Rent and other net sums required hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the Term, diminished by any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through reletting the Premises during such period, after deducting all costs incurred by Landlord in reletting the Premises.  If Landlord elects to terminate Tenant’s right to possession without terminating this Lease, and to retake possession of the Premises (and Landlord shall have no duty to make such election), Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises as further described in Section 19.4 below.  Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant’s obligations hereunder be diminished because of, Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or to collect rent due for such reletting.  Tenant shall not be entitled to the excess of any consideration obtained by reletting over the Rent due hereunder.  Reentry by Landlord in the Premises shall not affect Tenant’s obligations hereunder for the unexpired Term; rather, Landlord may, from time to time, bring an action against Tenant to collect amounts due by Tenant, without the necessity of Landlord’s waiting until the expiration of the Term.  Unless Landlord delivers written notice to Tenant expressly stating that it has elected to terminate this Lease, all actions taken by Landlord to dispossess or exclude Tenant from the Premises shall be deemed to be taken under this Section 18.2.  If Landlord elects to proceed under this Section 18.2, it may at any time elect to terminate this Lease under Section 18.1;
18.3    Perform Acts on Behalf of Tenant.  Perform any act Tenant is obligated to perform under the terms of this Lease (and enter upon the Premises in connection therewith if necessary) in Tenant’s name and on Tenant’s behalf, without being liable for any claim for damages therefor, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (including collection costs and legal expenses), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate; or
18.4    Suspension of Services.  Suspend any services required to be provided by Landlord hereunder without being liable for any claim for damages therefor;
19.    Payment by Tenant; Non-Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Mitigation of Damage.
19.1    Payment by Tenant.  Upon any Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all amounts, costs, losses and/or expenses incurred, abated or foregone by Landlord (including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in • obtaining possession of the Premises, • removing, storing and/or disposing of Tenant’s or any other occupant’s property, • repairing, restoring, altering, remodeling, or otherwise putting the Premises into the condition acceptable to a new tenant, • if Tenant is dispossessed of the Premises and this Lease is not terminated, reletting all or any part of the Premises (including brokerage commissions, cost of tenant finish work, and other costs incidental to such reletting), • performing Tenant’s obligations under this Lease which Tenant failed to perform, • enforcing, or advising Landlord of, its rights, remedies, and recourses arising out of the default, and • securing this Lease, including all commissions, allowances, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and if this Lease or any amendment hereto contains any abated Rent granted by Landlord as an inducement or concession to secure this Lease or amendment hereto, the full amount of all Rent so abated (and such abated amounts shall be payable immediately by Tenant to 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    19    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

Landlord, without any obligation by Landlord to provide written notice thereof to Tenant, and Tenant’s right to any abated rent accruing following such Event of Default shall immediately terminate).
19.2    No Waiver.  Landlord’s acceptance of Rent following an Event of Default shall not waive Landlord’s rights regarding such Event of Default.  No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms contained herein shall waive Landlord’s rights regarding any future violation of such term.  Landlord’s acceptance of any partial payment of Rent shall not waive Landlord’s rights with regard to the remaining portion of the Rent that is due, regardless of any endorsement or other statement on any instrument delivered in payment of Rent or any writing delivered in connection therewith; accordingly, Landlord’s acceptance of a partial payment of Rent shall not constitute an accord and satisfaction of the full amount of the Rent that is due.
19.3    Cumulative Remedies.  Any and all remedies set forth in this Lease:  • shall be in addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have at law or in equity, • shall be cumulative, and • may be pursued successively or concurrently as Landlord may elect.  The exercise of any remedy by Landlord shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude Landlord from exercising any other remedies in the future.  Additionally, Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord, Landlord’s Mortgagee and their respective representatives and agents from and against all claims, demands, liabilities, causes of action, suits, judgments, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease.
19.4    Mitigation of Damage.  The parties agree any duty imposed by Law on Landlord to mitigate damages after a default by Tenant under this Lease shall be satisfied in full if Landlord uses reasonable efforts to lease the Premises to another tenant (a “Substitute Tenant”) in accordance with the following criteria:  • Landlord shall have no obligation to solicit or entertain negotiations with any Substitute Tenant for the Premises until 30 days following the date upon which Landlord obtains full and complete possession of the Premises, including the relinquishment by Tenant of any claim to possession of the Premises by written notice from Tenant to Landlord; • Landlord shall not be obligated to lease or show the Premises on a priority basis or offer the Premises to any prospective tenant when other space in the Project or the Complex is or soon will be available; • Landlord shall not be obligated to lease the Premises to a Substitute Tenant for less than the current fair market value of the Premises, as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion, nor will Landlord be obligated to enter into a new lease for the Premises under other terms and conditions that are unacceptable to Landlord under Landlord’s then-current leasing policies; • Landlord shall not be obligated to enter into a lease with a Substitute Tenant:   whose use would violate any restriction, covenant or requirement contained in the lease of another tenant in the Project or the Complex;  whose use would adversely affect the reputation of the Project or the Complex;  whose use would require any addition to or modification of the Premises or Project or the Complex in order to comply with applicable Law, including building codes;  who does not satisfy the Tangible Net Worth/Credit Threshold or who does not have, in Landlord’s sole opinion, the creditworthiness to be an acceptable tenant;  that is a governmental entity, or quasi-governmental entity, or subdivision or agency thereof, or any other entity entitled to the defense of sovereign immunity;   that does not meet Landlord’s reasonable standards for tenants of the Project or the Complex or is otherwise incompatible with the character of the occupancy of the Project, as reasonably determined by Landlord;  whose use does not comply with the Permitted Use;  whose use or occupancy would result in an increase in the insurance premiums for the Project; or  whose use would result in utilization of more parking spaces on the Project in excess of the number previously utilized by Tenant; and • Landlord shall not be required to expend any amount of money to alter, remodel or otherwise make the Premises suitable for use by a Substitute Tenant unless:   Tenant pays any such amount to Landlord prior to Landlord’s execution of a lease with such Substitute Tenant (which payment shall not relieve Tenant of any amount it owes Landlord as a result of Tenant’s default under this Lease); or  Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, determines any such expenditure is financially prudent in connection with entering into a lease with the Substitute Tenant.
20.    Landlord’s Lien.  In addition to any statutory landlord’s lien, now or hereafter enacted, Tenant grants to Landlord, to secure performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, a security interest in all of the property situated in or upon, or used in connection with, the Premises or the Project, and all proceeds thereof (except merchandise sold in the ordinary course of business) (collectively, the “Collateral”), and the Collateral shall not be removed from the Premises or the Project without the prior written consent of Landlord until all obligations of Tenant have been fully performed.  The Collateral includes specifically all furniture and all trade and other fixtures, and inventory, equipment, contract rights, accounts receivable and the proceeds thereof.  For the purposes of this Section 20, there shall be a 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    20    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

rebuttable presumption that all property located in the Premises is owned by Tenant.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may, in addition to all other remedies, without notice or demand except as provided below, exercise the rights afforded to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the state in which the Premises are located (the “UCC”).  To the extent the UCC requires Landlord to give to Tenant notice of any act or event and such notice cannot be validly waived before a default occurs, then five-days’ prior written notice thereof shall be reasonable notice of the act or event.  In order to perfect such security interest, Landlord may file any financing statement or other instrument necessary at Tenant’s expense at the state and county Uniform Commercial Code filing offices.
21.    Surrender of Premises.  No act by Landlord shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender of the Premises shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by Landlord.  At the expiration or termination of this Lease or Tenant’s right to possess the Premises, Tenant shall • deliver to Landlord the Premises broom-clean with all alterations, additions, betterments and improvements (collectively, “Improvements”) located therein in good repair and condition (except for condemnation and Casualty damage not caused by Tenant, as to which Sections 14 and 15 shall control), free of any liens or encumbrances and free of Hazardous Materials placed on the Premises during the Term; • deliver to Landlord all keys to the Premises and all access cards to the Project (and shall reimburse Landlord for the then-current replacement cost charged by Landlord for all such keys and access cards that are not returned); • remove all unattached trade fixtures, furniture (including demountable walls), and personal property placed in the Premises or elsewhere in the Project by a Tenant Party and unattached equipment located in the Premises (but Tenant may not remove any such item which was paid for, in whole or in part, by Landlord unless Landlord requires such removal); • remove any and all telecommunications cabling (including conduit) installed in the Premises or elsewhere in the Project by or on behalf of a Tenant Party that was not part of the Work unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Landlord prior to installation of such cabling by Tenant, including all connections for any cabling that Tenant is required to remove, all at Tenant’s sole cost or, if Landlord so elects, Landlord may perform such removal at Tenant’s sole cost, with the cost thereof to be paid to Landlord as Rent (Landlord will have the right, however, upon notice to Tenant, given prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, to require Tenant to abandon and leave in place, without additional payment to Tenant or credit against Rent, any and all such telecommunications cabling [including conduit], whether located in the Premises or elsewhere in the Project, and if Landlord so elects, Tenant covenants that such telecommunications cabling shall be left in a neat and safe condition in accordance with the requirements of all applicable Laws, including the National Electric Code or any successor statute, and shall be terminated at both ends of a connector, properly labeled at each end and in each electrical closet and junction box); and • remove such Improvements and Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment as Landlord may require and restore the areas surrounding such Improvements and Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment to their conditions existing immediately prior to the installation of such Improvements and Tenant’s Off-Premises Equipment; however, Tenant shall not be required to remove any Improvements to the Premises or the Project if Landlord has specifically agreed in writing that the Improvements in question need not be removed.  Tenant shall repair all damage caused by the removal of the items described above.  If Tenant fails to remove any property, including any of the property described above within three  business days after expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option,  deem such items to have been abandoned by Tenant, the title thereof shall immediately pass to Landlord at no cost to Landlord, and such items may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without notice to Tenant and without any obligation to account for such items; any such disposition shall not be considered a strict foreclosure or other exercise of Landlord’s rights in respect of the security interest granted hereunder or otherwise,  remove such items, perform any work required to be performed by Tenant hereunder, and repair all damage caused by such work, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations hereunder (including collection costs and attorneys’ fees), plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, or  elect any of the actions described in clauses (1) and (2) above as Landlord may elect in its sole discretion.  The provisions of this Section 21 shall survive the end of the Term.
22.    Holding Over.  Landlord and Tenant recognize and agree that the damages to Landlord resulting from any failure by Tenant to timely surrender possession of the Premises at the end of the Term will be substantial, will exceed the amount of the monthly installments of the Basic Rent theretofore payable under this Lease, and will be impossible to accurately measure. Tenant therefore agrees that if Tenant fails to vacate the Premises at the end of the Term, then Tenant shall be a tenant at sufferance and, in addition to all other damages and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled for such holding over, • Tenant shall pay, in addition to the other Rent, Basic Rent equal to the greater of  150% of the Rent payable during the last month of the Term, and  125% of the prevailing rental rate in 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    21    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

the Project for similar space, and • Tenant shall otherwise continue to be subject to all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.  The provisions of this Section 22 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law.  If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender, and any lost profits or other consequential damages to Landlord resulting therefrom.
23.    Certain Rights Reserved by Landlord.  Landlord shall have the following rights:
23.1    Building Operations.  To decorate and to make inspections, repairs, alterations, additions, changes, or improvements, whether structural or otherwise, in and about the Project, or any part thereof; to enter upon the Premises (after giving Tenant at least 24 hours’ prior notice, which may be verbal notice given directly to Tenant (rather than as a voicemail), except in cases of real or apparent emergency, in which case no notice shall be required) to perform Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and, during the continuance of any such work, to temporarily close doors, entryways, public space, and corridors in the Building; to interrupt or temporarily suspend Building services and facilities; to change the name of the Building or Complex; and to change the arrangement and location of entrances or passageways, doors, and doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, restrooms, or other public parts of the Building; provided, however, if Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises because of Landlord’s performance of any of the foregoing for a period of 15 consecutive business days following Landlord’s receipt from Tenant of a written notice regarding such prevention of use, then Tenant shall, as its exclusive remedy be entitled to a reasonable and equitable abatement of Basic Rent and Additional Rent for each consecutive day (after such 15 business day period) that Tenant is so prevented from using the Premises
23.2    Security.

25.8    Amendments; Binding Effect; No Electronic Records.  This Lease may not be amended except by instrument in writing signed by Landlord and Tenant.

25.11    No Merger.

25.16    Recording.  Tenant shall not record this Lease or any memorandum of this Lease without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld or denied in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord, and any recordation by Tenant shall be a material breach of this Lease, provided, however, that Landlord will grant Tenant consent to record a memorandum of this Lease if such recordation is required by any applicable Law, provided that, as a condition precedent to Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord two original counterparts of a release of such memorandum of lease (with applicable recording information left blank) to be held by Landlord in trust until the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, or Tenant’s right of possession hereunder.

If Tenant is an entity that is domiciled in the United States of America, and whose securities are funded through a public securities exchange subject to regulation by the United States of America publicly traded over exchanges based in the United States and whose financial statements are readily available at no cost to Landlord (a “Public Company”), the terms of this Section 25.19 shall not apply.  Otherwise, within 15 days after Landlord’s request, Tenant will furnish Tenant’s most recent audited financial statements (including any notes to them) to Landlord, or, if no such audited statements have been prepared, such other financial statements (and notes to them) as may have been prepared by an independent certified public accountant or, failing those, Tenant’s internally prepared financial statements.  Tenant will discuss its financial statements with Landlord and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, will give Landlord access to Tenant’s books and records in order to enable Landlord to verify the financial statements.  Landlord will not disclose any aspect of Tenant’s financial statements that Tenant designates to Landlord as confidential except • to Landlord’s Mortgagee or prospective mortgagees or purchasers of the Building, • in litigation between Landlord and Tenant, and/or • if required by Law or court order.  Tenant shall not be required to deliver the financial statements required under this Section 25.19 more than once in any 12-month period unless requested by Landlord’s Mortgagee or a prospective buyer or lender of the Building or an Event of Default occurs.

Whenever Tenant requests Landlord to take any action not required of Landlord hereunder or give any consent required or permitted under this Lease, Tenant will reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable, out-of-pocket costs payable to third parties and incurred by Landlord in reviewing and taking the proposed action or consent, including reasonable engineers’ or architects’ fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees (including amounts allocated by Landlord to Landlord’s in-house counsel as well as fees and expenses charged by outside counsel engaged by Landlord), within 30 days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a statement of such costs.  Tenant will be obligated to make such reimbursement without regard to whether Landlord consents to any such proposed action.
25.21    Telecommunications.  Tenant and its telecommunications companies, including local exchange telecommunications companies and alternative access vendor services companies, shall have no right of

access to and within the Building, for the installation and operation of telecommunications systems, including voice, video, data, Internet, and any other services provided over wire, fiber optic, microwave, wireless, and any other transmission systems (“Telecommunications Services”), for part or all of Tenant’s telecommunications within the Building and from the Building to any other location unless Landlord has previously reviewed and approved all plans, specifications and contracts pertaining to telecommunication service entry points, and any documents to which Landlord is a party or which may encumber the Project, which approval by Landlord will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Further, Landlord will work with Tenant to reasonably help Tenant implement Tenant’s desired Telecommunication Services as approved by Landlord.  If Landlord fails to respond in writing within five business days after receipt from Tenant of such plans, specifications and contracts, Tenant may send Landlord a second written notice, which second notice, in order to be valid, must state in bold and capitalized letters at the top of the notice, “IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST WITHIN FIVE BUSINESS DAYS, YOU WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED THE REQUEST.”  If Landlord fails to approve or reject the second written request within such five business day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such plans, specifications and contracts.  All providers of Telecommunications Services shall be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the Project, applicable Laws and Landlord’s policies and practices for the Project, and shall be required, at Landlord’s election, to enter into a license agreement with Landlord to confirm and approve items such as, without limitation, the proposed location (and labeling requirements) of wiring, cabling, fiber lines, points of demarcation, entry into the Project, insurance requirements and the like, all at no cost to Landlord.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be required to provide or arrange for any Telecommunications Services and that Landlord shall have no liability to any Tenant Party in connection with the installation, operation or maintenance of Telecommunications Services or any equipment or facilities relating thereto.  Tenant, at its cost and for its own account, shall be solely responsible for obtaining all Telecommunications Services.
25.22    Confidentiality.  Both Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the terms and conditions of this Lease (other than the existence of this Lease and the location of the Premises) are to remain confidential for both parties’ benefit, and may not be disclosed by either party to anyone, by any manner or means, directly or indirectly, without the other party’s prior written consent; however, Landlord or Tenant may disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to its respective attorneys, accountants, brokers, employees and existing or prospective financial partners and, as to Landlord, any potential purchasers, or any other party assisting Landlord in the sale or valuation of the Project, or if required by Law or court order, provided all parties to whom Landlord or Tenant is permitted hereunder to disclose such terms and conditions are advised by Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be) of the confidential nature of such terms and conditions and agree to maintain the confidentiality thereof (in each case, prior to disclosure).  The disclosing party shall be liable for any disclosures made in violation of this Section by the disclosing party or by any entity or individual to whom the terms of and conditions of this Lease were disclosed or made available by the disclosing party.  The consent by either party to any disclosures shall not be deemed to be a waiver on the part of such party of any prohibition against any future disclosure.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to make disclosures of the terms of this Lease (a) to the extent required by legal requirements, (b) to the extent reasonably required to enforce such party’s rights hereunder, (c) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with such party’s financing, selling, leasing, or otherwise transferring or capitalizing its assets or its business (or any such transaction consummated by such party’s affiliate) (including disclosures that are reasonably necessary to comply with rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any stock exchange), (d) to the extent reasonably required in connection with such party’s books and records being audited, (e) to the extent reasonably required in constructing, operating, maintaining, repairing or restoring the Premises or the other portions of the Project, and (f) pursuant to a press release which has been approved by both parties.

Additionally, if Landlord ever adds or removes structures from the Building, the Project or the Complex, Landlord shall have the right to remeasure the Premises, Building, Project and/or Complex, as applicable, using a standard selected by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.  For avoidance of doubt, the areas stipulated in this Lease shall be fully applicable and binding on the parties until after such time, if ever, as any such remeasurement is effected, following which event the new measurements, if it differs from the measurements herein set forth, shall be applicable to future obligations only.

26.4.2    Monument Signage. Tenant shall have the right to install one sign panel (the “Monument Sign Panel”) on the Building’s multi-tenant monument sign on the Project grounds for office tenants of the Project. Tenant shall install and maintain the Monument Sign Panel in a good, clean and safe condition and in accordance with all Laws, regulations, restrictions (governmental or otherwise), and architectural guidelines in effect for the area in which the Project is located (the “Sign Requirements”), all at Tenant's sole cost and expense (provided, that during the Term Landlord may elect to perform any repair or replacement of the Monument Sign Panel at Tenant’s sole cost).  If the Monument Sign Panel uses any electricity, Tenant shall pay an equitable allocation by Landlord among the users of such monument sign.  Tenant shall install the Monument Sign Panel on or before the date that is one month after the Commencement Date, or Tenant’s rights under this Section 26.4.2 to the signage not installed shall expire, time being of the essence with respect thereto.  Prior to the end of the Term, or within five business days after Tenant's right to possess the Premises has been terminated, Tenant shall remove the Monument Sign Panel and repair all damage caused thereby.  Additionally, if Tenant fails to do so prior to the deadlines set forth above, Landlord may, without compensation to Tenant and at Tenant's expense, remove the Monument Sign Panel, perform the related restoration and repair work and dispose of the Monument Sign Panel in any manner Landlord deems appropriate.
26.4.3    Signage Rights Personal to Tenant; Changes.  The rights granted to Tenant under this Section 26.4 are personal to Dicerna Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and may not be assigned to any party other than a Permitted Transferee of all of Tenant’s rights under this Lease, and may be revoked by Landlord if Tenant ceases to lease and to occupy the Premises.  Any changes or additions to the Monument Sign Panel shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, in Landlord’s sole discretion, and shall be made at Tenant's sole cost and expense.  For all purposes under the Lease, the Monument Sign Panel shall be deemed to be Tenant's Off-Premises Equipment.
26.5    Tenant’s Letter of Credit.
26.5.1    General Provisions.  Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, a standby, unconditional, irrevocable, transferable letter of credit (“Tenant’s Letter of Credit”) in the form of Exhibit J hereto and containing the terms required herein, in the face amount set forth in Section 26.5.6 (“Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount”), naming Landlord as beneficiary, permitting multiple and partial draws thereon, and otherwise in form acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion.  Tenant’s Letter of Credit shall be issued by Silicon Valley Bank (or another bank, as selected pursuant to the terms of this Section 26.5, “Issuing Bank”). Landlord acknowledges that, as of the Lease Date, the Issuing Bank meets Tenant’s LC Issuer Requirements. “Tenant’s LC Issuer Requirements” shall mean, collectively,  a commercial bank reasonably acceptable to Landlord (a) that is chartered under the laws of the United States, 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    30    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation; and (b) that has assets under management of at least Fifteen Billion Dollars ($15,000,000,000.00).  If at any time, Tenant’s LC Issuer Requirements are not met, or if the financial condition of such issuer changes in any other materially adverse way, as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion, Tenant shall, within 30 days of written notice from Landlord, deliver to Landlord a replacement Tenant’s Letter of Credit which otherwise meets the requirements of this Lease and that meets Tenant’s LC Issuer Requirements (and Tenant’s failure to do so shall, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, constitute an Event of Default for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto other than the aforesaid 30-day period).  Among other things, Landlord shall have the right under such circumstances to immediately, and without further notice to Tenant, present a draw under Tenant’s Letter of Credit for payment and to hold the proceeds thereof.  Tenant shall cause Tenant’s Letter of Credit to be continuously maintained in effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount through the date (“Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date”) that is 60 days after the scheduled expiration date of the Term or any renewal Term.  If Tenant’s Letter of Credit held by Landlord expires earlier than the Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by the Issuing Bank), Tenant shall deliver a new Tenant’s Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord not later than 30 days prior to the expiration date of Tenant’s Letter of Credit then held by Landlord.  Any renewal or replacement Tenant’s Letter of Credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 26.5 shall be irrevocable, transferable and shall remain in effect (or be automatically renewable) through the Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date upon the same terms as the expiring Tenant’s Letter of Credit or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion.
26.5.2    Drawings under Tenant’s Letter of Credit.  Landlord shall have the right to draw upon Tenant’s Letter of Credit, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time:
(a)    If an Event of Default occurs; or
(b)    If Tenant’s Letter of Credit held by Landlord expires earlier than the Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by the Issuing Bank), and Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord, at least 10 days prior to the expiration date of Tenant’s Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, a renewal or substitute Tenant’s Letter of Credit that is in effect and that complies with the provisions of this Section 26.5.
No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render Tenant’s Letter of Credit conditional so as to justify the Issuing Bank in failing to honor a drawing upon such Tenant’s Letter of Credit in a timely manner.  Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is entering into this Lease in material reliance upon the ability of Landlord to draw upon Tenant’s Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease or upon the occurrence of any of the other events described above in this Section 26.5.
26.5.3    Use of Proceeds by Landlord.  The proceeds of Tenant’s Letter of Credit may be applied by Landlord against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that is not paid when due and/or to pay for all losses and damages Landlord has suffered or Landlord reasonably estimates it will suffer as a result of any default by Tenant under this Lease.  Landlord shall deposit any unused proceeds in a separate account in the name of Landlord or its designee at a financial institution selected by Landlord in its sole discretion (“Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account”).  Landlord may apply funds from Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease not paid when due and/or to pay for all losses and damages Landlord has suffered or Landlord reasonably estimates it will suffer as a result of any default by Tenant under this Lease.  Tenant hereby grants Landlord a security interest in Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account and all funds held in such account and agrees that, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Landlord under applicable Law, Landlord shall have all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code in the state in which the Premises are located with respect to Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account.  Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account shall be under the sole control of Landlord.  Tenant shall not have any right to direct the disposition 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    31    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

of funds from Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account or any other right or interest in the Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account, and any interest accruing upon the funds in Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account shall belong to Landlord.  Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time, execute, acknowledge and deliver such documents and take such actions as Landlord or the bank with which the Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account is maintained may reasonably request concerning the creation or perfection of the security interest granted to Landlord in (including Landlord’s control of) Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account or to effect the provisions of this Section 26.5.3.  Tenant does hereby make, constitute and appoint Landlord its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, for it and in its name, place and stead, to execute and deliver all such instruments and documents, and to do all such other acts and things, as Landlord may deem to be necessary or desirable to protect and preserve the rights granted to Landlord under this Section 26.5.3 if Tenant is neglectful in its performance of the same, as reasonably determined by Landlord.  Tenant hereby grants to Landlord the full power and authority to appoint one or more substitutes to perform any of the acts that Landlord is authorized to perform under this Section 26.5.3, with a right to revoke such appointment of substitution at Landlord’s pleasure.  The power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 26.5.3 is coupled with an interest and therefore is irrevocable.  Any person dealing with Landlord may rely upon the representation of Landlord relating to any authority granted by this power of attorney, including the intended scope of the authority, and may accept the written certificate of Landlord that this power of attorney is in full force and effect.  Photographic or other facsimile reproductions of this executed Lease may be made and delivered by Landlord, and may be relied upon by any person to the same extent as though the copy were an original.  Anyone who acts in reliance upon any representation or certificate of Landlord, or upon a reproduction of this Lease, shall not be liable for permitting Landlord to perform any act pursuant to this power of attorney.  Provided Tenant has performed all of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant within 30 days after the Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date the amount of any proceeds of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit received by Landlord and not applied against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that was not paid when due or used to pay for any losses and/or damages suffered by Landlord (or reasonably estimated by Landlord that it will suffer) as a result of any default by Tenant under this Lease; provided, that if prior to the Tenant’s Final LC Expiration Date a voluntary petition is filed by Tenant or any Guarantor, or an involuntary petition is filed against Tenant or any Guarantor by any of Tenant’s or Guarantor’s creditors, under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, then Landlord shall not be obligated to make such payment in the amount of the unused Tenant’s Letter of Credit proceeds until either all preference issues relating to payments under this Lease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed, in each case pursuant to a final court order not subject to appeal or any stay pending appeal.
26.5.4    Additional Covenants of Tenant.  If, as result of any application or use by Landlord of all or any part of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit, the amount of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit shall be less than the Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount, Tenant shall, within ten days thereafter, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency (or a replacement letter of credit in the total Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount), and any such additional (or replacement) letter of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 26.5 and if Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the same shall constitute an uncurable Event of Default by Tenant.  Tenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the Tenant’s Letter of Credit or any part thereof or any interest in the Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.
26.5.5    Transfer of Tenant’s Letter of Credit.  Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer all or any portion of its interest in and to the Tenant’s Letter of Credit to another party, person or entity, including Landlord’s Mortgagee and/or to have the Tenant’s Letter of Credit reissued in the name of Landlord’s Mortgagee.  If Landlord transfers its interest in the Building and transfers the Tenant’s Letter of Credit (or any proceeds thereof then held by Landlord) in whole or in part to the transferee, Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties hereto, thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability therefor.  The provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of all or any part of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit to a new landlord.  In connection with any such transfer of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and submit to the 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    32    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

issuer of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer. Landlord shall be responsible for paying the first $1,500.00 for any costs and expenses related to such applications, documents and instruments, including any of issuer’s transfer and processing fees in connection with any transfer of the Tenant’s Letter of Credit, and Tenant shall pay the remaining balance of all such costs, expenses and fees. If Landlord advances any such fees over the first $1,500.00 (without having any obligation to do so), Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such transfer or processing fees within ten days after Landlord’s written request therefor.
26.5.6    Reduction in Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount.  Provided no Event of Default has occurred hereunder and, no less than 30 days prior to each requested letter of credit reduction date, Tenant has delivered to Landlord a written request for Landlord to acknowledge (and Landlord has made such acknowledgement in writing) that no Event of Default has occurred hereunder, Tenant may reduce the Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount to the following amounts for the following periods of time:
	
		
	Lease Month
	Required Tenant’s Letter of Credit Amount

	1 – 36
	$350,000.00

	37 – The date that is 60 days after the end of the Term or any renewal Term
	$250,000.00

If an Event of Default occurs, the scheduled reduction in the Letter of Credit Amount shall immediately cease and shall not resume unless and until the Event of Default in question is fully cured and no further Event of Default occurs for a period of 12 consecutive months thereafter and Tenant has delivered to Landlord a written request for Landlord to acknowledge (and Landlord has made such acknowledgement in writing) that no Event of Default has occurred for a period of 12 consecutive months hereunder.  In the event Tenant is permitted to reduce the Tenant’s Letter of Credit, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an acceptable (pursuant to this Section) substitute Tenant’s Letter of Credit or amendment to the existing Tenant’s Letter of Credit in such appropriately reduced amount.  Landlord agrees, in the instance of such substitute Tenant’s Letter of Credit, to surrender the replaced Tenant’s Letter of Credit promptly after receipt of the substitute.  
26.5.7    Nature of Tenant’s Letter of Credit.  Landlord and Tenant (a) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the Tenant’s Letter of Credit or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof (including the Tenant’s LC Proceeds Account) be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any Law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context (“Security Deposit Laws”), (b) acknowledge and agree that the Tenant’s Letter of Credit (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (c) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations either party may now or, in the future, will have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws.
26.6    Community Space.  Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to utilize the outdoor common areas, but specifically excluding any roof-top space, which are commonly made available to other tenants in the Project. In addition, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to install improvements and alterations in all such outdoor common areas; provided, however, that all such improvements or alterations (i) are approved by Landlord in the same manner as alterations to the Premises pursuant to Section 8 (and in no event shall any such alterations to the outdoor common areas be considered Minor Alterations); and (ii) shall be available for the common use by all tenants of the Building and the adjacent building, and not exclusively for Tenant’s use. If Tenant requests that Landlord supervise any work described in this Section 26.6, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction management fee equal to 5% of the cost of such work.  If Tenant has not requested that Landlord supervise any work described in this Section 26.6, then Tenant shall not be required to pay Landlord a construction management, provided however, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant has not requested that Landlord supervise such work, but such work affects the Building’s Systems or Building’s Structure thus requiring Landlord’s participation, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction management fee equal 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    33    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

to 5% of the cost of that portion of the work affecting the Building’s Systems or Building’s Structure.

To the extent that any permits or registrations are required for the installation, maintenance or operation of the Supplemental HVAC System, they shall be obtained in Tenant’s name and Tenant shall maintain such permits throughout the Term.

EXHIBIT D     
 
TENANT FINISH-WORK: ALLOWANCE
(Landlord Performs the Work)
1.    Acceptance of Premises.  Except as set forth in this Exhibit, Tenant accepts the Premises in their “AS‐IS” condition on the date that this Lease is entered into.
2.    Space Plans.
2.1    Preparation and Delivery.  On or before the tenth day following the date of this Lease (the “Space Plans Delivery Deadline”), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a space plan prepared by Robin Youngelman or another design consultant reasonably acceptable to Landlord (the “Architect”) depicting improvements to be installed in the Premises (the “Space Plans”).
2.2    Approval Process.  Landlord shall notify Tenant whether it approves of the submitted Space Plans within five business days after Tenant’s submission thereof.  If Landlord disapproves of such Space Plans, then Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall, within five business days after such notice, revise such Space Plans in accordance with Landlord’s objections and submit to Landlord for its review and approval.  Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted Space Plans within three business days after its receipt thereof.  This process shall be repeated until the Space Plans have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant.  If Landlord fails to notify Tenant that it disapproves of the initial Space Plans within five business days (or, in the case of resubmitted Space Plans, within three business days) after the submission thereof, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved the Space Plans in question.  If Tenant fails to timely deliver such Space Plans, then each day after the Space Plans Delivery Deadline that such Space Plans are not delivered to Landlord shall be a Tenant Delay Day (defined below).
3.    Working Drawings.
3.1    Preparation and Delivery.  On or before the date which is 15 days following the final approval of the Space Plans, as outlined in Section 2 above, Landlord shall cause to be prepared final working drawings of all improvements to be installed in the Premises and deliver the same to Tenant for its review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).  Such working drawings shall be prepared by Architect or another design consultant selected by Landlord.  Unless otherwise expressly included in the approved Space Plans to the contrary, the Work shall be performed utilizing Building-standard materials and other materials that are readily available.
3.2    Approval Process.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether it approves of the submitted working drawings within five business days after Landlord’s submission thereof.  If Tenant disapproves of such working drawings, then Tenant shall notify Landlord thereof specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Landlord shall, within five business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Tenant’s objections and submit the revised working drawings to Tenant for its review and approval.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted working drawings within three business days after its receipt thereof.  This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Landlord and Tenant.  If Tenant fails to notify Landlord that it disapproves of the initial working drawings within five business days (or, in the case of resubmitted working drawings, within three business days) after the submission thereof, then Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the working drawings in question.  Any delay caused by Tenant’s unreasonable withholding of its consent or delay in giving its written approval as to such working drawings shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.  If the working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant by the 15th business day after the delivery of the initial draft thereof to Tenant, then each day after such time period that such working drawings are not fully approved (or deemed approved) by both Landlord and Tenant shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.

BOULDER, CO 80301

3.3    Landlord’s Approval; Performance of Work.  If any of Tenant’s proposed construction work will affect the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems, then the working drawings pertaining thereto must be approved by the Project’s engineer of record.  Landlord’s approval of such working drawings shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that (a) they comply with all Laws, (b) the improvements depicted thereon do not (1) adversely affect (in the reasonable discretion of Landlord) the Building’s Structure or the Building’s Systems (including the Project’s restrooms or mechanical rooms), or (2) affect (in the sole discretion of Landlord) (A) the exterior appearance of the Project, (B) the appearance of the Project’s common areas or elevator lobby areas, or (C) the provision of services to other occupants of the Project, (c) such working drawings are sufficiently detailed to allow construction of the improvements and associated work in a good and workmanlike manner for the entire Premises, and (d) the improvements depicted thereon conform to the rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by Landlord for the construction of tenant improvements (a copy of which has been delivered to Tenant).  As used herein, “Working Drawings” means the final working drawings approved by Landlord, as amended from time to time by any approved changes thereto, and “Work” means all improvements to be constructed by Landlord in accordance with and as indicated on the Working Drawings, together with any work required by governmental authorities to be made to other areas of the Project as a result of the improvements indicated by the Working Drawings.  Landlord’s approval of the Working Drawings shall not be a representation or warranty of Landlord that such drawings are adequate for any use or comply with any Law, but shall merely be the consent of Landlord thereto.  Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, sign the Working Drawings to evidence its review and approval thereof.  After the Working Drawings have been approved, Landlord shall cause the Work to be performed in substantial accordance with the Working Drawings, using contractors and subcontractors selected by Landlord.
4.    Bidding of Work.  Prior to commencing the Work, Landlord shall competitively bid the Work to two contractors selected by Landlord and one contractor selected by the Tenant, and reasonably approved by Landlord.  If the estimated Total Construction Costs are expected to exceed the Construction Allowance, Tenant shall be allowed to review the submitted bids from such contractors to value engineer any of Tenant’s requested alterations.  In such case, Tenant shall notify Landlord of any items in the Working Drawings that Tenant desires to change within five business days after Landlord’s submission thereof to Tenant.  If Tenant fails to notify Landlord of its election within such five business day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the bids.  Within seven business days following Landlord’s submission of the initial construction bids to Tenant under the foregoing provisions (if applicable), Tenant shall have completed all of the following items:  (a) finalized with Landlord’s representative and the proposed contractor, the pricing of any requested revisions to the bids for the Work, and (a) approved in writing any overage in the Total Construction Costs in excess of the Construction Allowance, failing which each day after such five business day period shall constitute a Tenant Delay Day.  Tenant and Landlord acknowledge and agree that Tenant shall select the contractor for the Work based on the bids, provided however that Tenant’s decision shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval of such contractor’s bid. 
5.    Change Orders.  Tenant may initiate changes in the Work.  Each such change must receive the prior written approval of Landlord, such approval shall be granted or withheld in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 3.3 above; additionally, if any such requested change might (a) delay the Commencement Date or (a) leave any portion of the Premises not fully finished and ready for occupancy,  Landlord may withhold its consent in its sole and absolute discretion.  Landlord shall, upon completion of the Work, cause to be prepared accurate architectural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing “as-built” plans of the Work as constructed in both blueprint and electronic CADD format, which plan shall be incorporated into this Exhibit D by this reference for all purposes.  If Tenant requests any changes to the Work described in the Space Plans or the Working Drawings, then such increased costs and any additional design costs incurred in connection therewith as the result of any such change shall be added to the Total Construction Costs.
6.    Definitions.  As used herein, a “Tenant Delay Day” means each day of delay in the performance of the Work that occurs (a) because Tenant fails to timely furnish any information or deliver or approve any required documents such as the Space Plans or Working Drawings (whether preliminary, interim revisions or final), pricing estimates, construction bids, and the like, (a) because of any change by Tenant to the Space Plans or Working Drawings, (a) because Tenant fails to attend any meeting with Landlord, the Architect, any design professional, or any contractor, or their respective employees or representatives, as may be required or scheduled hereunder or otherwise necessary in connection with the preparation or completion of any construction documents, such as the Space Plans or Working 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    2    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

Drawings, or in connection with the performance of the Work, (a) because of any specification by Tenant of materials or installations in addition to or other than Landlord’s standard finish-out materials or any materials that are not readily available, or (a) because a Tenant Party otherwise delays completion of the Work.  As used herein “Substantial Completion,” “Substantially Completed,” and any derivations thereof mean the Work in the Premises is substantially completed (as reasonably determined by Landlord, including, if applicable, Landlord’s receipt of a Letter of Completion or other similar approval from the City of Boulder) in substantial accordance with the Working Drawings.  Substantial Completion shall have occurred even though minor details of construction, decoration, landscaping and mechanical adjustments remain to be completed by Landlord.
7.    Walk-Through; Punchlist.  When Landlord considers the Work in the Premises to be Substantially Completed, Landlord will notify Tenant and, within three business days thereafter, Landlord’s representative and Tenant’s representative shall conduct a walk-through of the Premises and identify any necessary touch-up work, repairs and minor completion items that are necessary for final completion of the Work.  Neither Landlord’s representative nor Tenant’s representative shall unreasonably withhold his or her agreement on punchlist items.  Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to cause the contractor performing the Work to complete all punchlist items within 30 days after agreement thereon; however, Landlord shall not be obligated to engage overtime labor in order to complete such items.
8.    Excess Costs.  Tenant shall pay the entire amount by which the Total Construction Costs (hereinafter defined) exceed the Construction Allowance (hereinafter defined) (such excess amount being referred to herein as the “Excess Amount”).  Upon approval of the Working Drawings and selection of a contractor, Tenant shall promptly (a) execute a work order agreement prepared by Landlord which identifies such drawings and itemizes the Total Construction Costs and sets forth the Construction Allowance, and (a) pay to Landlord 50% of Landlord’s estimate of the Excess Amount.  Within 30 days after Substantial Completion of the Work, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any remaining unpaid portion of the Excess Amount.  In the event of default of payment of any portion of the Excess Amount, Landlord (in addition to all other remedies) shall have the same rights as for an Event of Default under this Lease.  As used herein, “Total Construction Costs” means the entire cost of performing the Work, including design of and space planning for the Work and preparation of the Working Drawings and the final “as-built” plan of the Work, costs of construction labor and materials, electrical usage during construction, additional janitorial services, standard building directory and suite tenant signage, related taxes and insurance costs, licenses, permits, certifications, surveys and other approvals required by Law, any applicable governmental fees, and the construction supervision fee referenced in Section 11 of this Exhibit.
9.    Construction Allowance.  Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance not to exceed $60.00 per  rentable square foot in the Premises (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs, as adjusted for any changes to the Work.  The Construction Allowance shall not be disbursed to Tenant in cash, but shall be applied by Landlord to the payment of the Total Construction Costs, if, as, and when the cost of the Work is actually incurred and paid by Landlord.  The Construction Allowance must be used (that is, the Work must be fully complete and the Construction Allowance disbursed) within 12 months following the Commencement Date or shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto, time being of the essence with respect thereto.
10.    Space Plan Allowance.  Landlord will provide up to $0.15 per rentable square foot of the Premises (the “Space Plan Allowance”) to be applied towards the costs incurred for Architect's preparation of the Space Plans.  Tenant shall be responsible for any space planning costs incurred in excess of the Space Plan Allowance.  The Space Plan Allowance is in addition to the Construction Allowance.   In no event shall any portion of the Space Plan Allowance be used to fund any portion of the Total Construction Costs or to offset Tenant's Rent payments under the Lease.  If the Architect is engaged by Landlord, and the cost of the space plan exceeds the Space Plan Allowance, such excess costs will be considered Total Construction Costs and payable by Tenant in accordance with Section 8 of this Exhibit.  The Space Plan Allowance shall not be disbursed to Tenant in cash, but shall be applied by Landlord to the payment of the Total Construction Costs, if, as, and when the cost of the Work is actually incurred and paid by Landlord.  The Space Plan Allowance must be used (that is, the Work must be fully complete and the Space Plan Allowance disbursed) within 12 months following the Commencement Date or shall be deemed forfeited with no further obligation by Landlord with respect thereto, time being of the essence with respect thereto.

Landlord or its Affiliate or agent shall supervise the Work, make disbursements required to be made to the contractor, and act as a liaison between the contractor and Tenant and coordinate the relationship between the Work, the Project and the Building’s Systems. Landlord or its Affiliate or agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate weekly telephonic or in-person status meetings with Tenant’s Representative.  In consideration for Landlord’s construction supervision services, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a construction supervision fee equal to five percent of the Total Construction Costs (exclusive of the construction supervision fee).

PARKING
5    Tenant shall have the right to use up to three (3) unreserved parking spaces for every one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of space leased by Tenant in the Premises (which, based upon the Premises comprising 15,781 rentable square feet of space, results in a total of 47 spaces being made available to Tenant pursuant hereto) in the parking facilities associated with the Building (the “Parking Area”) subject to such terms, conditions and regulations as are from time to time applicable to patrons of the Parking Area.  Regardless of whether Tenant elects to use such parking spaces, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on the first day of each month during the Term, parking rent (plus all applicable taxes) during the Term equal to the rate then established by Landlord for unreserved parking spaces in the Parking Area, if any, for each such parking space.  Landlord will allow Tenant to use up to three parking spaces for electric vehicle stations for Tenant’s exclusive use; provided that Tenant installs such stations at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, subject to Landlord’s approval, the stations be sub-metered and Tenant pays all electrical costs. As of the Lease Date, the rate for unreserved parking spaces is as follows: 
	
	
	Monthly Rent per Unreserved Parking Space

	$0.00

6    Tenant shall at all times comply with all Laws respecting the use of the Parking Area.  Landlord reserves the right to adopt, modify, and enforce reasonable rules and regulations governing the use of the Parking Area from time to time including designation of assigned parking spaces, requiring use of any key-card, sticker, or other identification or entrance systems and charging a fee for replacement of any such key-card, sticker or other item used in connection with any such system and hours of operations.  Landlord may refuse to permit any person who violates such rules and regulations to park in the Parking Area, and any violation of the rules and regulations shall subject the car to removal from the Parking Area.
7    Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as Landlord may approve, at the validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking.  Unless specified to the contrary above, the parking spaces provided hereunder shall be provided on an unreserved, “first-come, first served” basis.  Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has arranged or may arrange for the Parking Area to be operated by an independent contractor, not affiliated with Landlord.
8    All motor vehicles (including all contents thereof) shall be parked in the Parking Area at the sole risk of Tenant and each other Tenant Party, it being expressly agreed and understood Landlord has no duty to insure any of said motor vehicles (including the contents thereof), and Landlord is not responsible for the protection and security of such vehicles.  If, for any reason, Landlord is unable to provide all or any portion of the parking spaces to which Tenant is entitled hereunder, then Tenant’s obligation to pay for such parking spaces shall be abated for so long as Tenant does not have the use thereof; this abatement shall be in full settlement of all claims that Tenant might otherwise have against Landlord because of Landlord’s failure or inability to provide Tenant with such parking spaces.  Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing Tenant’s parking rights against any third parties.  NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS LEASE, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS WHICH MIGHT OCCUR ON THE PARKING AREA OR AS A RESULT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PARKING OF MOTOR VEHICLES IN ANY OF THE PARKING SPACES.

EXTENSION OPTION
9    Tenant may extend the Term for up to two additional period of five years each, by delivering written notice of the exercise thereof to Landlord not earlier than 12 months or later than 9 months before the expiration of the then-current Term.  The Basic Rent payable for each month during such extended Term shall be the Prevailing Rental Rate (defined below)  at the commencement of the extended Term in question. As used herein, the “Prevailing Rental Rate” shall mean the prevailing rental rate that a willing tenant would pay, and a willing landlord would accept (both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant factors), for a renewal of a lease of space that is of equivalent quality, size, utility and location as the space in question and that is located in comparable buildings in Boulder (including the Building), taking into consideration (a) the location, quality and age of the Building; (b) the use and size of the space in question; (c) the location and/or floor level of the space in question; (d) the amount of any tenant improvement allowances, abatement of rental, or other tenant inducements for the space in question, if any; (e) the fact that a lease may be a “triple net”, “base year” or “gross” lease for the space in question; (f) the amount of any brokerage commissions; (g) the expense stop or base year for pass-through expense purposes for the space in question; (h) the credit standing of Tenant; (i) the length of the term for the space in question; (j) the amount and frequency of increases in Basic Rent; (k) the fact that Tenant will not incur any moving or relocation expenses, and the fact that Tenant will not incur any loss of business while relocating to another space; (l) the tenant improvements located in the space in question; and (m) the amount of any parking charges of equivalent quality, size, utility and location. In no event, however, shall the Basic Rent in the extended Term be less than the Basic Rent rate per rentable square foot in effect during the last calendar month immediately preceding the extended Term.  Within 30 days after receipt of Tenant’s notice to extend, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of the Prevailing Rental Rate and shall advise Tenant of the required adjustment to Basic Rent, if any, and the other terms and conditions offered.  Tenant shall, within five days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate.  If Tenant timely notifies Landlord that Tenant accepts Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, then, within 30 days following the determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease extending the Term on the same terms and conditions provided in this Lease, except as follows:
(a)    Basic Rent shall be adjusted to the Prevailing Rental Rate, with periodic increases therein as described above;
(b)    Except for any unexercised renewal option provided in this Exhibit, Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term unless expressly granted by Landlord in writing;
(c)    Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Premises in their then-current condition, and Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances (e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other tenant inducements; provided, however, if Landlord provides any such allowances or other tenant inducements for renewals of space in the Building, and such allowances have been taken into account in determining the Prevailing Rental Rate, then Landlord shall provide such allowances to Tenant; and
(d)    Tenant shall pay for the parking spaces which it is entitled to use at the rates from time to time charged to patrons of the Parking Area and/or any other parking area associated with the Building during the extended Term (plus all applicable taxes).
10    If Tenant timely delivers written notice to Landlord that Tenant rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, time being of the essence with respect thereto, and Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on the Prevailing Rental Rate within 15 days following Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s rejection notice, then Tenant shall, by written notice to Landlord given prior to the expiration of such 15 day period, elect either to (1) rescind its election to renew the Lease, in which case the Lease shall end on the then-current expiration date and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further obligation or liability under this Exhibit, or (2) require that the determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate be made by brokers (and if Tenant makes such election, Tenant shall be deemed to have irrevocably renewed the Term, subject only to the determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate as provided below).  In such event, within ten days thereafter, each party shall select a licensed commercial real estate broker with at least ten years’ 

DMWEST #36871000 v9    1    PEARL EAST
BOULDER, CO 80301

experience in leasing property and buildings in the city or submarket in which the Premises are located (a “Qualified Broker”).  The two brokers shall give their opinion of prevailing rental rates (based upon the same criteria as described in the first paragraph above) within ten days after their retention.  If such brokers timely reach agreement, such agreed determination shall be final and binding on Landlord and Tenant.  In the event the opinions of the two brokers differ and, after good faith efforts for ten days after the expiration of such initial ten day period, they cannot mutually agree, the brokers shall immediately and jointly appoint a third Qualified Broker. If the brokers are unable to agree upon such third Qualified Broker, then such third Qualified Broker shall be appointed by the American Arbitration Association upon the request of either Landlord or Tenant (and such appointee shall satisfy the requirement of a Qualified Broker and shall be bound by the procedures described in this paragraph).  This third broker shall immediately (within five days) choose either the determination of Landlord’s broker or Tenant’s broker and such choice of this third broker shall be final and binding on Landlord and Tenant.  Each party shall pay its own costs for its real estate broker.  Following the determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate by the brokers, the parties shall equally share the costs of any third broker.  The parties shall immediately execute an amendment as set forth above.  If Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord in writing that Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate, time being of the essence with respect thereto, then, at Landlord’s option, (a) Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall terminate and Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term; or (a) Tenant shall be deemed to have irrevocably renewed the Term and to have accepted Landlord’s determination of the Prevailing Rental Rate.
11    Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall terminate, at Landlord’s option, if (a) an Event of Default exists as of the date of Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Exhibit or as of the commencement date of the extended Term, (a) this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of any of the Premises is terminated, (a) Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease or sublets any portion of the Premises, (a) Tenant fails to lease from Landlord and occupy at least the same number of rentable square feet leased to Tenant as of the Lease Date, (a) Landlord determines, in its sole but reasonable discretion, that Tenant’s financial condition or creditworthiness has materially deteriorated since the date of this Lease, or (a) Tenant fails to timely exercise its option under this Exhibit, time being of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise thereof.

EXHIBIT I     
 
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
12    Subject to then-existing renewal or expansion options or other preferential rights of other tenants, if Landlord receives an offer from a third party (other than the then-current tenant or occupant therein) (a “Third Party Offer”) to lease space on the second floor of the Building (the “Refusal Space”) and Landlord is willing to accept the terms of such Third Party Offer, Landlord shall offer to lease to Tenant the Refusal Space on the same terms and conditions as the Third Party Offer; such offer shall (a) be in writing, (a) specify the part of the Refusal Space being offered to Tenant hereunder (the “Designated Refusal Space”), (a) specify the rent to be paid for the Designated Refusal Space, and (a) contain the basic terms and conditions of the Third Party Offer and the date on which the Designated Refusal Space shall be included in the Premises (the “Refusal Notice”).  The Refusal Notice shall be substantially similar to the Refusal Notice attached to this Exhibit.  Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant elects to lease the Designated Refusal Space subject to the Third Party Offer on the same terms and conditions as the Third Party Offer in the Refusal Notice, within three days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the Refusal Notice.  If Tenant timely elects to lease the Designated Refusal Space within such three-day period, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease, effective as of the date the Designated Refusal Space is to be included in the Premises, on the same terms as this Lease except (1) the Basic Rent and parking charges shall be the amounts specified in the Refusal Notice, (1) the term for the Designated Refusal Space shall be that specified in the Refusal Notice, (1) Tenant shall lease the Designated Refusal Space in an “AS‐IS” condition, (1) Landlord shall not be required to perform any work therein, (1) Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances other than those contained in the Third Party Offer (e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) if any, and (1) other terms set forth in the Lease which are inconsistent with the terms of the Refusal Notice shall be modified accordingly.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Refusal Notice includes space in excess of the Refusal Space, Tenant must exercise its right hereunder, if at all, as to all of the space contained in the Refusal Notice.  To the extent that multiple tenants have rights to lease the Refusal Space, Landlord may elect to deliver a Refusal Notice to Tenant and such third party tenants at the same time, and if both Tenant and another third party tenant accept the Refusal Notice, the party with the superior rights shall prevail.
13    If Tenant fails or is unable to timely exercise its right hereunder with respect to the Designated Refusal Space, such right shall lapse, time being of the essence with respect to the exercise thereof (it being understood Tenant’s right hereunder is a one-time right only as to all or any part of the Refusal Space the first time it is offered to Tenant hereunder), and Landlord may lease all or a portion of the Designated Refusal Space to third parties on such terms as Landlord may elect. Tenant’s failure to exercise its right to lease the Designated Refusal Space the first time any Refusal Notice is delivered to Tenant shall constitute Tenant’s waiver of its rights under this Exhibit. In the event Tenant exercises its right to lease the Designated Refusal Space, or fails to exercise such right, Landlord shall have no further obligation to deliver any additional Refusal Notice to Tenant for all or any part of the Refusal Space. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Landlord and Tenant’s real estate broker, in no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay a commission with respect to any space leased by Tenant under this Exhibit, and Tenant and Landlord shall each indemnify the other against all costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and other liability for commissions or other compensation claimed by any broker or agent claiming the same by, through or under the indemnifying party.
14    Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall terminate, at Landlord’s option, if (a) an Event of Default exists as of the date of Tenant’s exercise of its rights under this Exhibit or as of the effective date of the addition of the Designated Refusal Space to the Premises, (a) this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of any of the Premises is terminated, (a) Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease or sublets any portion of the Premises, (a) Tenant fails to lease from Landlord and occupy at least the same number of rentable square feet leased to Tenant as of the Commencement Date, (a) Landlord determines, in its sole but reasonable discretion, that Tenant’s financial condition or creditworthiness has materially deteriorated since the date of this Lease, (a) Tenant fails to timely exercise its option under this Exhibit, time being of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise thereof, or (a) less than two full calendar years remain in the initial Term of this Lease.
15    Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall not apply to leases that allow tenants in the Building to use such space as unfinished storage area and other temporary leases to provide temporary space to tenants that ultimately

BOULDER, CO 80301

will occupy other space in the Building on a permanent basis, any management space, tenant relocation space and other building space/amenities (conference center, fitness center, etc.).

    21.4.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, because the parties have not completed the revision of the PMPM Payments by the expiration of the current rating
        period which ends on October 31, 2019 (the “Expired Rating Period”) such that the new rating period must commence without updated PMPM Payments,
        then the following shall occur:

    

    

    
      
        	

              	(a)	
                ASES shall continue to pay Contractors at the PMPM Payment rates that existed during the Expired Rating Period;

                Following agreement upon Updated PMPM Payments, the parties shall execute an amendment to Attachment 11 of the Contract setting forth the Updated PMPM Payments.
                  Such amendment and the Updated PMPM Payments shall be effective as of November 1st 2019 as if the Updated PMPM Payments had been agreed upon at the expiration of the Expired Rating Period, provided that,

              	(1)	
                Notwithstanding the foregoing, because Updated PMPM Payment rates are subject to CMS and FOMB approval, ASES will continue to pay Contractors at the PMPM Payment
                  rates that existed during the Expired

              

      

    

    

    

    Rating Period until such time as CMS and the FOMB have approved the Updated PMPM Payments, and;

    

    

    
      
        	

              	(2)	
                within thirty (30) calendar days following CMS’ and the FOMB’s approval of Updated PMPM Payment rates, the Parties shall begin to reconcile any difference between
                  (i) PMPM Payments that ASES made to Contractors after the Expired Rating Period and (ii) Updated PMPM Payment rates.

        Medical Loss Ratio Requirement, as required under 42 CFR 438.8(k) for each MLR reporting year. Such reporting shall be provided to ASES no later than ten (10) months following the close of the MLR reporting year.

    

    

    
      
        	

              	16.

    23.3.4 The Contractor’s stop-loss responsibility shall not be transferred to a PMG unless the PMG and the Contractor expressly agree in writing to the PMG’s assuming this risk. In this
        event, Contractor shall accept stop-loss insurance and reinsurance obtained from a third party, and shall not obligate the PMG to utilize insurance provided by the Contractor.
