OFFICE LEASE

 

This Office Lease
(this “Lease”), dated January 7, 2017, is made by and between DOUGLAS EMMETT 2014, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (“Landlord”), with an office at 808 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 200, Santa Monica, California 90401, and
RESEARCH SOLUTIONS, INC., a Nevada corporation (“Tenant”), with an office at 5435 Balboa Boulevard, Suite 202, Encino,
California 91316.

 

ARTICLE 1

DEMISE OF PREMISES

 

Section 1.1. Demise. Subject to the
covenants and agreements contained in this Lease, Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant hires from Landlord, Suite Number 165 (the
“Premises”) on the first (1st) floor, in the building located at 15821 Ventura Boulevard, Encino, California
91436 (the “Building”). The configuration of the Premises is shown on Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof
by reference.

 

Tenant acknowledges that
it has made its own inspection of and inquiries regarding the Premises, which are already improved. Therefore, except for the improvements
to be completed by Landlord’s contractor pursuant to Section 1.1.1 below and those latent defects of which Tenant notifies
Landlord within one (1) year of the Commencement Date, Tenant accepts the Premises in their “as-is” condition. Tenant
further acknowledges that Landlord has made no representation or warranty, express or implied, except as are contained in this
Lease and its Exhibits, regarding the condition, suitability or usability of the Premises or the Building for the purposes intended
by Tenant, except as set forth below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that upon
its delivery of the Premises to Tenant (a) the Premises shall be broom clean, (b) the Premises (including the Improvements) shall
be in compliance with all applicable laws (including the Americans With Disabilities Act), and (c) the Premises (including the
Improvements) shall be in good order, condition and repair for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the Commencement
Date (subject to reasonable wear and tear and Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct).

 

The Building, the Building’s
parking facilities, any outside plaza areas, land and other improvements surrounding the Building which are designated from time
to time by Landlord as Common Areas appurtenant to or servicing the Building, and the land upon which any of the foregoing are
situated, are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Real Property”.

 

Section 1.1.1.  Improvements.
Prior to the Commencement Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 1.1.1., Landlord shall complete the following
Improvements to the Premises at Landlord’s sole expense, pursuant to plans and specifications approved by Landlord in Landlord’s
sole and absolute discretion and using Building standard materials:

 

a)           Repaint the interior
walls of the Premises that were previously painted, using Building standard materials and a maximum of two (2) coats of paint,
in a single color reasonably acceptable to Tenant (the “Paint”); and

 

b)           Furnish and install
new carpet in the Premises, using Building standard materials in a single color that is reasonably acceptable to Tenant (the “Carpet”)
(the Paint and the Carpet collectively, the “Improvements”).

 

Within three (3) business
days after the full execution and mutual delivery of this Lease, Landlord shall provide Tenant with the following: (a) the choices
for the Paint from which Tenant may choose, and (b) the choices for the Carpet from which Tenant may choose, (collectively, the
“Finishes Package”). Within three (3) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the full Finishes Package, Tenant
shall provide Landlord with its Paint selection and its Carpet selection. Tenant acknowledges that (i) Landlord shall not be obligated
to commence the Improvements prior to the full execution and mutual delivery of this Lease, and (ii) Tenant shall be subject to
a Tenant Delay if it fails to fully and timely satisfy its obligations set forth in this Paragraph.

    	 	 1	 

     

    

 

If Tenant elects to make
any other improvements to the Premises during the Term (not including the Additional Improvements Allowance set forth in Section
1.1.2 below), the same shall be considered a Tenant Change, to be completed by Tenant, at Tenant's sole expense, pursuant to the
provisions of Article 12 of this Lease.

 

Section 1.1.2. Additional Improvements Allowance.
Landlord shall provide Tenant with an allowance of up to $2.50 per square foot of Usable Area in the Premises, which is equal to
$7,842.50 (the “Additional Improvements Allowance”) which amount may be used for additional improvements Tenant desires
to make to the Premises (the “Additional Improvements”). Landlord shall pay the Additional Improvements Allowance directly
to Landlord’s contractor for Tenant’s account. Prior to commencing construction of the Additional Improvements, Landlord
shall provide Tenant with a cost estimate of any costs in excess of the Additional Improvements Allowance (the “Overage”).
Within three (3) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the cost estimate of the Overage, Tenant shall provide Landlord
with its written approval of or its objections to the Overage. In the event Tenant objects to the Overage, and has reasonable grounds
to do so, Landlord shall modify the Overage and resubmit such Overage for Tenant’s approval, which Tenant must provide within
three (3) business days of its receipt thereof. Tenant acknowledges that (i) Landlord shall not be obligated to commence the Additional
Improvements prior to the full execution and mutual delivery of this Lease, (ii) Tenant shall be responsible for payment of the
Overage, which shall be paid to Landlord before Landlord is obligated to commence construction of the Additional Improvements,
(iii) Landlord shall have no obligation to disburse the Additional Improvements Allowance after the expiration of eighteen (18)
months following the full execution and mutual delivery of this Lease, (iv) if the Additional Improvements are actually constructed
by Landlord’s contractor at a cost which is less than the Additional Improvements Allowance, there shall be no monetary adjustment
between Landlord and Tenant or offset against Rent or other sums owed by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, and the cost savings
shall be retained by Landlord and relinquished by Tenant, and (v) Tenant shall be subject to a Tenant Delay if it fails to fully
and timely satisfy its obligations set forth in this Paragraph.

 

Section 1.2. Tenant’s Non-Exclusive
Use. Subject to the contingencies contained herein, Tenant is granted the nonexclusive use of the common corridors and hallways,
stairwells, elevators, restrooms, parking facilities, lobbies and other public or Common Areas located on the Real Property (collectively,
“Common Areas”). However, the manner in which such public and Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be consistent
with the operation of a first-class office building in the Encino area, but shall otherwise be at the reasonable discretion of
Landlord, and Tenant’s use thereof shall be subject to such reasonable and non-discriminatory rules, regulations and restrictions
as Landlord may make from time to time of which Tenant receives written notice and which do not restrict Tenant’s rights
under the Lease or Tenant’s use or occupancy of, or access to, the Premises.

 

Section 1.3. Landlord’s Reservation
of Rights. Landlord specifically reserves to itself use, control and repair of the structural portions of all perimeter walls
of the Premises, any balconies, terraces or roofs adjacent to the Premises (including any flagpoles or other installations on said
walls, balconies, terraces or roofs) and any space in and/or adjacent to the Premises used for shafts, stairways, pipes, conduits,
ducts, mail chutes, conveyors, pneumatic tubes, electric or other utilities, sinks, fan rooms or other Building facilities, and
the use thereof, as well as access thereto through the Premises. Landlord also specifically reserves to itself the following rights:

 

a)           To designate all sources furnishing
sign painting or lettering;

    	 	 2	 

     

    

 

b)           To constantly have pass keys to
the Premises;

 

c)           To grant to anyone the exclusive
right to conduct any particular business or undertaking in the Building, so long as Landlord’s granting of the same does
not prohibit Tenant’s use of the Premises for Tenant’s Specified Use, as defined in Article 6;

 

d)           To enter the Premises at any reasonable
time with reasonable prior notice (except for emergencies) and with as little interference to Tenant’s business as reasonably
possible, to inspect, repair, alter, improve, update or make additions to the Premises or the Building so long as Tenant’s
access to and use of the Premises is not materially impaired thereby;

 

e)           During the last six (6) months
of the Term, to exhibit the Premises to prospective future tenants upon not less than 24 hours prior notice and with as little
interference to Tenant’s business as reasonably possible,;

 

f)           Subject to the provisions of Article
12, to, at any time, and from time to time, whether at Tenant’s request or pursuant to governmental requirement, repair,
alter, make additions to, improve, or decorate all or any portion of the Real Property, Building or Premises at any reasonable
time with reasonable notice (except for emergencies), so long as Tenant’s access to and use of the Premises is not materially
impaired thereby. In connection therewith, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing rights, Landlord shall specifically
have the right to remove, alter, improve or rebuild all or any part of the lobby of the Building as the same is presently or shall
hereafter be constituted, so long as Tenant’s access to and use of the Premises is not materially impaired thereby;

 

g)           Subject to the provisions of Article 12,
Landlord reserves the right to make alterations or additions to or change the location of elements of the Real Property and any
Common Areas appurtenant thereto at any reasonable time with reasonable notice (except for emergencies), so long as Tenant’s
access to and use of the Premises is not materially impaired thereby; and/or

 

h)           To take such other actions as
may reasonably be necessary when the same are required to preserve, protect or improve the Premises, the Building, or Landlord’s
interest therein at any reasonable time with reasonable notice (except for emergencies), so long as Tenant’s access to and
use of the Premises is not materially impaired thereby.

 

Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that: (a) the Premises are part of an office building owned, operated, managed and leased by Landlord and occupied by numerous
tenants; (b) Landlord and such tenants are engaged from time to time in a variety of construction projects inside individual premises
as well as in Common Areas as part of the normal course of business in the Building; and (c) such construction activities may cause,
among other things, noise, vibration, dust, odors, increased foot traffic in the Building and in elevators and corridors, and increased
motor vehicle traffic in parking facilities. In recognition of the foregoing, Tenant agrees that none of the activities and conditions
described in the foregoing clauses (b) and (c) shall be grounds for any claim by Tenant or any party claiming through Tenant that
Landlord has breached the terms of Section 1.5 below or any other provision of this Lease, or violated any statute or other applicable
law which purports to govern the rights or obligations of Landlord and Tenant concerning the matters set forth in Section 1.5.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the activities and conditions described in the foregoing clauses (b) and/or (c) prevents Tenant
from using and Tenant does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof for the Specified Use, the same shall be deemed an Abatement
Event and shall be subject to the express provisions of said Section 8.9.

 

Section 1.4. Area. Landlord represents
and warrants to Tenant that the usable area (the “Usable Area”) of the Premises has been measured using the 2010 ANSI/BOMA
Standard published collectively by the American National Standards Institute and the Building Owners’ and Managers’
Association (“ANSI/BOMA Standard”), as a guideline, and that Landlord is utilizing a deemed add-on factor of 20.02%
to compute the rentable area (the “Rentable Area”) of the Premises. Rentable Area herein is calculated as 1.2002 times
the estimated Usable Area, regardless of what the actual square footage of the Common Areas of the Building may be, and whether
or not they are more or less than 20.02% of the total estimated Usable Area of the Building. The purpose of this calculation is
solely to provide a general basis for comparison and pricing of this space in relation to other spaces in the market area.

Landlord and Tenant further
agree that even if the Rentable or Usable Area of the Premises and/or the total Building Area are later determined to be more or
less than the figures stated herein, for all purposes of this Lease, the figures stated herein shall be conclusively deemed to
be the actual Rentable or Usable Area of the Premises, as the case may be.

 

Section 1.5. Quiet Enjoyment. Contingent
upon Tenant keeping, observing and performing all of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease
on its part to be kept, observed and performed, and subject to the limitations imposed under Article 14 of this Lease, Tenant
shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term.

 

Section 1.6. No Light, Air or View Easement.
Any diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which is now or may hereafter be erected on the Building,
the Real Property or on lands adjacent to the Building shall in no way affect this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord. Noise,
dust or vibration or other ordinary incidents to new construction of improvements on the Building, the Real Property or on lands
adjacent to the Building, whether or not by Landlord, shall in no way affect this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord.

 

Section 1.7. Relocation. Landlord shall
have the one-time right, except during the first twelve (12) months of the Term and the last twelve (12) months of the Term, and
after giving Tenant a minimum of one hundred twenty (120) days’ prior written notice, to:

 

a)           provide and furnish Tenant with
space elsewhere in the Building of approximately the same size as, with at least the same number of window offices having similar
or better views and with improvements and finishes comparable to the improvements and finishes in the Premises (the “Substitute
Premises”), and

 

b)           relocate Tenant to such Substitute
Premises.

 

Landlord shall pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred as a result of such relocation (including, without limitation, (i) the costs of printing
Tenant’s relocation announcements (and related postage), new stationery and new business cards, (ii) the costs of installing
Tenant’s telephone and data cabling and related equipment in the Substitute Premises, (iii) the costs of moving Tenant and
its furniture, fixtures, equipment and records from the Premises to the Substitute Premises, and (iv) the costs of re-keying the
entry doors and interior doors of the Substitute Premises). If Landlord moves Tenant to the Substitute Premises, each and every
term, covenant and condition of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and be deemed applicable to the Substitute Premises,
as though Landlord and Tenant had entered into an express written amendment of this Lease with respect thereto, except that (i)
if the approximate rentable square footage of the Substitute Premises is less than that of the Premises, the Fixed Monthly Rent
and Tenant’s Share of Operating Expense increases shall be appropriately reduced, (ii) if the approximate rentable square
footage of the Substitute Premises is greater than that of the Premises, the Fixed Monthly Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating
Expense increases shall be and remain as set forth in this Lease, (iii) Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord without
the obligation to remove any of the improvements previously made to the Premises by Landlord or Tenant (provided that any such
improvements made by Tenant were in accordance with the provisions of this Lease), and (iv) Tenant shall surrender the Premises
to Landlord with reasonable wear and tear excepted, and Landlord agrees to clean the Premises after Tenant surrenders the Premises,
provided that Tenant uses reasonable efforts to discard its trash. Landlord shall cause such relocation to occur over a weekend
period or such other reasonable time period approved by Landlord and Tenant. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section
1.7, Landlord may exercise this relocation right only if (aa) Landlord intends to enter into a lease covering more than five thousand
(5,000) square feet of Rentable Area on the first floor of the Building (the “New Lease”), and (bb) the Premises comprise
a portion of the space covered by the New Lease.

If Tenant refuses to permit
Landlord to relocate Tenant as specified above, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective one hundred twenty
(120) days from the date Landlord provided Tenant with the original notification of intent to relocate.

 

ARTICLE 2

COMMENCEMENT
DATE AND TERM

 

Section 2.1. Commencement Date and Term.
The term of this Lease (“Term”) shall commence on the next business day after the date Landlord substantially completes
the Improvements contemplated under Section 1.1.1 (the “Commencement Date”), and shall end, unless sooner terminated
as otherwise provided herein, at midnight on the last calendar day of the calendar month which occurs four (4) years after the
Commencement Date (the “Termination Date”). Landlord estimates that the Commencement Date will be February 1, 2017.
In the event Landlord substantially completes the Improvements prior to February 1, 2017, the Commencement Date shall nevertheless
be deemed to be February 1, 2017.

 

Provided such access does
not obstruct or interfere with any work being performed in the Premises, Landlord shall grant Tenant access to the Premises one
(1) week prior to the Commencement Date (the “Access Period”), provided that the following conditions are satisfied
in full: (a) Landlord and Tenant have fully executed and mutually delivered this Lease; (b) Tenant has delivered to Landlord a
certificate of insurance evidencing the required insurance under Section 19.2 of this Lease; and (c) Tenant has paid to Landlord
all funds due upon execution of this Lease. Tenant’s early access to the Premises shall be solely for the purpose of installing
Tenant's furniture, fixtures and equipment, computer and telephone cabling. Provided Tenant’s access to the Premises is for
the purposes herein stated and not for the conduct of its business in the Premises, then such access shall not serve to accelerate
the Commencement Date nor shall Tenant’s failure to exercise its right of access for any reason whatsoever serve to delay
the Commencement Date. During the Access Period, if any, Tenant shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable administrative control
and supervision and Tenant shall comply with all of the provisions and covenants contained in this Lease, except that Tenant shall
not be obligated to pay Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent until the Commencement Date.

 

For purposes of establishing
the Commencement Date, substantial completion shall be defined as that point in the construction process when a majority of all
of the work specified in Section 1.1.1 has been completed in such a manner that Tenant could, if it took possession of the Premises,
conduct normal business operations in the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any Tenant Delay, the date of
substantial completion shall be the date that Landlord reasonably determines would have been the date of substantial completion
had there been no Tenant Delay. As used in this Lease, “Tenant Delay” shall mean any delay in the construction of the
Improvements caused by any act, omission, delay or default by Tenant or any Tenant Party (as hereinafter defined), including, without
limitation, the failure of Tenant or Tenant Party to comply with any schedule or other provision of this Lease (including, without
limitation, Section 1.1.1) requiring Tenant or any Tenant Party to respond to, review, authorize or approve any matter, or perform
an obligation within a certain time period. A Tenant Delay shall also be assessed in the event any component of the Improvements
or any Tenant change order is not Building standard, requires materials that are not locally available, or is not customary for
a normal office build out and, as a result, the same requires a longer lead time for ordering materials or a longer construction
period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, a Tenant Delay shall not be declared by Landlord unless
Landlord has first given Tenant notice of the grounds for such possible Tenant Delay and Tenant is provided with two (2) business
days after its receipt of such notice within which to remedy the matter or thing described in the notice.

In the event of any Tenant
Delay, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or applicable law, the Commencement Date shall
be the next day after the date the Improvements would have been substantially completed had no such Tenant Delay occurred. Landlord
and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to this Lease (the “Memorandum”) substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit D, confirming the finalized Commencement Date and Term as soon as they are determined. Tenant shall execute the
Memorandum and return it to Landlord within five (5) business days after receipt thereof. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and
deliver the Memorandum shall constitute an acknowledgement by Tenant that the statements included in such Memorandum are true and
correct, without exception.

 

Tenant’s taking possession
of the Premises and/or commencing Tenant’s normal business operations in the Premises shall be deemed conclusive evidence
that, as of the Commencement Date:

 

a)           Landlord has substantially completed
the Improvements set forth in Section 1.1.1; and

 

b)           the Premises are broom clean and
in good order, condition and repair, subject to Landlord’s representations, warranties, covenants and conditions set forth
elsewhere in this Lease.

 

If for any reason (including
any Tenant Delay or Landlord’s inability to complete the Improvements called for hereunder) Landlord is unable to deliver
possession of the Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Commencement Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall
Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage resulting from Landlord’s inability to deliver such possession. However, Tenant
shall not be obligated to pay the Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent that Tenant is required to pay pursuant to Section 3.1
until such possession of the Premises has been delivered to Tenant by Landlord, subject to any Tenant Delay. Except for such delay
in the commencement of Rent (but subject to any acceleration of the Commencement Date as a result of any Tenant Delay), Landlord’s
failure to give possession on the anticipated Commencement Date shall in no way affect Tenant’s obligations hereunder.

 

If possession of the Premises
is not tendered by Landlord within sixty (60) days after the anticipated Commencement Date, then, subject to any Tenant Delay and
any Force Majeure, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within ten (10) business
days after such failure. If such notice of termination is not so given by Tenant within said ten (10) business day time period,
then this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

 

If, due to Force Majeure,
Landlord is unable to tender possession of the Premises within one hundred twenty (120) days after the anticipated Commencement
Date (but subject to a day for day extension for each day of a Tenant Delay), then this Lease, and the rights and obligations of
Landlord and Tenant hereunder, shall terminate automatically, without further liability by either party to the other, and without
further documentation being required.

 

Prior to Tenant’s
taking occupancy of the Premises, the representatives of each of Landlord and Tenant shall conduct a joint inspection of the Premises
for the purpose of developing a written “punchlist” of Improvement items, if any, that require completion or repair
(the “Punchlist”). Landlord shall correct those items not yet completed or repair such items requiring repair within
thirty (30) days after creation of the Punchlist.

 

Landlord agrees that, subject to Tenant’s
performance of Tenant’s obligation under this Lease, Landlord shall complete the Improvements and shall correct any construction
defects about which Tenant notifies Landlord in writing within one (1) year following the Commencement Date.

Section 2.2. Holding Over. If Tenant
fails to deliver possession of the Premises on the Termination Date, but holds over after the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease without the express prior written consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be construed as a tenancy from month-to-month
on the same terms and conditions as are contained herein except that the Fixed Monthly Rent payable by Tenant during the first
thirty (30) days of holding over (the “Initial Holdover Period”) shall automatically increase as of the Termination
Date to an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Fixed Monthly Rent payable by Tenant for the calendar
month immediately prior to the date when Tenant commences such holding over (the “Holdover Rent”). After the expiration
of the Initial Holdover Period, the Holdover Rent shall be increased to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Fixed Monthly Rent
payable by Tenant for the calendar month immediately prior to the date when Tenant commenced such holding over. During any period
of holding over Tenant shall be obligated to pay Holdover Rent for a full calendar month whether or not Tenant remains in possession
of the Premises for the entire calendar month and there shall be no pro-rata apportionment of Holdover Rent. Tenant’s payment
of such Holdover Rent, and Landlord’s acceptance thereof, shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of any of Landlord’s
rights or remedies with respect to such holding over, nor shall it be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to Tenant’s continued
occupancy or possession of the Premises past the time period covered by Tenant’s payment of the Holdover Rent.

 

Furthermore, if Tenant
fails to deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and Landlord
has provided Tenant with not less than sixty (60) days prior written notice that Landlord requires possession of the Premises for
a succeeding tenant, then, 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 expenses) and liability resulting
from such failure, including without limiting the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant arising out of Tenant’s
failure to so surrender, and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.

 

Notwithstanding the provisions
contained hereinabove regarding Tenant’s liability for a continuing holdover, Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable
efforts to insert into any future lease of another tenant proposing to occupy the Premises provisions similar to those contained
in Section 2.1, permitting mitigation of Tenant’s damages arising out of Tenant’s temporary holdover.

 

ARTICLE 3

PAYMENT OF RENT,
LATE CHARGE

 

Section 3.1. Payment of Fixed Monthly Rent
and Additional Rent. “Rent” shall mean: all payments of monies in any form whatsoever required under the terms
and provisions of this Lease, and shall consist of:

 

a)           “Fixed Monthly Rent”,
which shall be payable in equal monthly installments of the amounts set forth in Section 3.3 below; plus

 

b)           Additional Rent as provided in
Article 4 and elsewhere in this Lease.

 

Section 3.2. Manner of Payment. Tenant
shall pay Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent immediately upon the same becoming due and payable, without demand therefor, and
without any abatement, set off or deduction whatsoever, except as may be expressly provided in this Lease. Landlord’s failure
to submit statements to Tenant stating the amount of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent then due, including Landlord’s
failure to provide to Tenant a calculation of the adjustment as required in Section 3.3 or the Escalation Statement referred
to in Article 4, shall not constitute Landlord’s waiver of Tenant’s requirement to pay the Rent called for herein.
Tenant’s failure to pay Additional Rent as provided herein shall constitute a material default equal to Tenant’s failure
to pay Fixed Monthly Rent when due.

Rent shall be payable in
advance on the first day of each and every calendar month throughout the Term, in immediately available funds, to Landlord at Suite
150 in the Building, or at such other place(s) as Landlord designates in writing to Tenant. Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent
shall begin on the Commencement Date and continue throughout the Term, without abatement, setoff or deduction, except as otherwise
specified hereinbelow.

 

Concurrent with Tenant’s
execution and delivery to Landlord of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Fixed Monthly Rent due for the first month of
the Term.

 

Section 3.3. Fixed Monthly Rent. Tenant
shall pay the Fixed Monthly Rent as follows:

 

	Period	 	Fixed Monthly Rent	 
	Commencing on the Commencement Date, and continuing through the last calendar day of the twelfth (12th) full calendar month of the Term	 	$	10,353.75	 
	Commencing on the first calendar day of the thirteenth (13th) full calendar month of the Term, and continuing through the last calendar day of the twenty-fourth (24th) full calendar month of the Term	 	$	10,716.13	 
	Commencing on the first calendar day of the twenty-fifth (25th) full calendar month of the Term, and continuing through the last calendar day of the thirty-sixth (36th) full calendar month of the Term 	 	$	11,091.20	 
	Commencing on the thirty-seventh (37th) full calendar month of the Term, and continuing through the last calendar day of the forty-eighth (48th) full calendar month of the Term 	 	$	11,479.39	 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall be permitted to defer one hundred percent (100%) of the Fixed Monthly Rent due for the second (2nd), third
(3rd), and fourth (4th) full calendar months of the initial Term (collectively, the amount of Fixed Monthly
Rent deferred shall be referred to herein as the “Rent Deferral Amount”). So long as Tenant has not committed a material
default during the Term, which material default continues after the expiration of any notice and cure period, the entire Rent Deferral
Amount shall be abated and forgiven as of the Termination Date; provided, however, that if Tenant does commit a material default
during the Term, and if such material default continues after the expiration of any notice and cure periods, then, regardless of
whether such material default is thereafter cured, (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the entire Rent Deferral Amount
due for the months of the Term prior to the occurrence of such material default, and (b) Tenant shall not be entitled to any additional
or future deferral of Fixed Monthly Rent. If Tenant does not commit any such material default during the first two (2) years of
the initial Term, then Tenant shall thereafter be relieved of any obligation to repay any Rent Deferral Amount.

 

Landlord and Tenant shall,
in the Memorandum, confirm the actual dates upon which the changes in Fixed Monthly Rent specified above shall occur.

 

Section 3.4. Tenant’s Payment of Certain
Taxes. Unless it is or becomes unlawful for Tenant to do so, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s
receipt of Landlord’s invoices, reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, for any and all taxes, surcharges, levies, assessments,
fees and charges payable by Landlord when:

 

a)           assessed on, measured by, or reasonably
attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises;

 

Encino Terrace / Research Solutions, Inc.

	 	____	____	____	____
	 	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  

 

    	 	 8	 

     

    

 

b)           on or measured by any rent payable
hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income tax, gross receipts tax, or excise tax levied by the City or County
of Los Angeles or any other governmental body with respect to the receipt of such rent (computed as if such rent were the only
income of Landlord), but solely when levied by the appropriate City or County agency in lieu of, or as an adjunct to, such business
license(s), fees or taxes as would otherwise have been payable by Tenant directly to such taxing authority;

 

c)           upon or with respect to the possession,
leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof;
or

 

d)           solely because Landlord and Tenant
entered into this transaction or executed any document transferring an interest in the Premises to Tenant.

 

Said taxes shall be due
and payable whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of Landlord and Tenant. Notwithstanding the above, in no event
shall the provisions of this Section 3.4 serve to entitle Landlord to reimbursement from Tenant for any federal, state, county
or city income tax payable by Landlord or the managing agent of Landlord
or any gift, estate or inheritance taxes assessed against Landlord or any of its partners, shareholders or members.

 

Section 3.5. Certain Adjustments. If:

 

a)           the Commencement Date occurs on
other than January 1st of a calendar year, or this Lease expires or terminates on other than December 31st of a calendar year;

 

b)           the size of the Premises changes
during a calendar year; or

 

c)           any abatement of Fixed Monthly
Rent or Additional Rent occurs during a calendar year,

 

then the amount payable by Tenant or reimbursable
by Landlord during such year shall be adjusted proportionately on a daily basis, and the obligation to pay such amount shall survive
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

 

If the Commencement Date
occurs on other than the first day of a calendar month, or this Lease expires on a day other than the last day of a calendar month,
then the Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant shall be appropriately apportioned on a prorata basis for the
number of days remaining in the month of the Term for which such proration is calculated.

 

If the amount of Fixed
Monthly Rent or Additional Rent due is modified pursuant to the terms of this Lease, such modification shall take effect the first
day of the calendar month immediately following the date such modification would have been scheduled.

 

Section 3.6. Late Charge and Interest.
Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent will cause Landlord to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which are extremely difficult and impracticable to fix. Such costs include,
without limitation, processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any encumbrance
and note secured by any encumbrance covering the Premises. Therefore, if any installment of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent
and other payment due from Tenant hereunder is not received by Landlord within ten (10) business days of the date it becomes due,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord on demand an additional sum equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount as a late charge. The
parties agree that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable settlement against the costs that Landlord will incur by reason
of Tenant’s late payment. Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect
to the overdue amount, or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord.

Every installment of Fixed
Monthly Rent and Additional Rent and any other payment due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord which is not paid within ten (10)
business days after the same becomes due and payable shall, in addition to any Late Charge already paid by Tenant, bear interest
at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date that the same originally became due and payable until the date it is paid.
Landlord shall bill Tenant for said interest, and Tenant shall pay the same within ten (10) business days of receipt of Landlord’s
billing.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall not be assessed any late charge for the first late payment in each twelve (12) month period of the Term so long as
Tenant pays such amount within five (5) business days of Tenant’s receipt of notice that such amount has not been paid.

 

Section 3.7. Security Deposit. Concurrent
with Tenant’s execution and tendering of this Lease to Landlord, Tenant shall deposit the sum set forth in Section 3.7 of
the BLI Table (the “Security Deposit”), which amount Tenant shall thereafter at all times maintain on deposit with
Landlord as security for Tenant’s full and faithful observance and performance of its obligations under this Lease (expressly
including, without limitation, the payment as and when due of the Fixed Monthly Rent, Additional Rent and any other sums or damages
payable by Tenant hereunder and the payment of any and all other damages for which Tenant shall be liable by reason of any act
or omission contrary to any of said covenants or agreements). Landlord shall have the right to commingle the Security Deposit with
its general assets and shall not be obligated to pay Tenant interest thereon.

 

If at any time Tenant defaults
in the performance of any of its obligations under this Lease, after the expiration of notice and the opportunity to cure (if a
notice and cure period is provided for under this Lease for the particular default), then, Landlord may:

 

a)           apply as much of the Security
Deposit as may be necessary to cure Tenant’s non-payment of the Fixed Monthly Rent, Additional Rent and/or other sums or
damages due from Tenant, including any sums due under Section 20.26 of this Lease; and/or;

 

b)           apply so much of the Security
Deposit as may be necessary to reimburse all expenses incurred by Landlord in curing such default; or

 

c)           if the Security Deposit is insufficient
to pay the sums specified in Section 3.7 (a) or (b), elect to apply the entire Security Deposit in partial payment thereof,
and proceed against Tenant pursuant to the provisions of Article 17 and Article 18 herein.

 

Tenant hereby waives the
provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, and all other laws, statutes, ordinances or other governmental rules,
regulations or requirements now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated, which (i) establish the time frame by
which Landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (ii) provide that Landlord may claim from the Security Deposit
only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the
Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in Article 18 below, and/or those sums reasonably
necessary to compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant’s breach of this Lease or the acts or omission of
Tenant or any Tenant Party. As used in this Lease a “Tenant Party” shall mean Tenant, any employee of Tenant, or any
agent, authorized representative, design consultant or construction manager engaged by or under the control of Tenant.

 

If, as a result of Landlord’s
application of any portion or all of the Security Deposit, the amount held by Landlord declines to less than the sum set forth
in Section 3.7 of the BLI Table, Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days after written demand therefor is received by Tenant,
deposit with Landlord additional cash sufficient to bring the then-existing balance held as the Security Deposit to the amount
specified hereinabove. Tenant’s failure to deposit said amount shall constitute a material breach of this Lease.

At the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, Landlord shall deduct from the Security Deposit being held on behalf of Tenant any unpaid sums, costs,
expenses or damages payable by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease; and/or any reasonable costs required to cure Tenant’s
default or performance of any other covenant or agreement of this Lease, and shall, within thirty (30) days after the expiration
or earlier termination of this Lease, return to Tenant, without interest, all or such part of the Security Deposit as then remains
on deposit with Landlord.

 

ARTICLE 4

ADDITIONAL RENT

 

Section 4.1. Certain Definitions. As
used in this Lease:

 

a)           “Escalation Statement”
means a statement by Landlord, setting forth the amount payable by Tenant or by Landlord, as the case may be, for a specified calendar
year pursuant to this Article 4.

 

b)           “Operating Expenses”
means the following in a referenced calendar year, including the Base Year as hereinafter defined, calculated assuming the Building
is at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied: all costs of management, operation, maintenance, and repair of the Building.

 

By way of illustration
only, Operating Expenses shall include, but not be limited to: management fees paid by Landlord, which shall not exceed those reasonable
and customary in the geographic area in which the Building is located; water and sewer charges; any and all insurance premiums
not otherwise directly payable by Tenant; license, permit and inspection fees; air conditioning (including repair of same); heat;
light; power and other utilities; steam; labor; cleaning and janitorial services; guard services; supplies; materials; equipment
and tools.

 

Operating Expenses shall
also include the cost or portion thereof of those capital improvements made to the Building by Landlord during the Term:

 

i)           to the extent that such capital
improvements reduce other direct expenses, when the same were made to the Building by Landlord after the Commencement Date, or

 

ii)          that are required under any governmental
law or regulation that was not applicable to the Building as of the Commencement Date.

 

Said capital improvement
costs, or the allocable portion thereof (as referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above), shall be amortized over the useful life
of any such capital improvement as reasonably determined by Landlord using sound real estate practices, together with interest
on the unamortized balance at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.

 

Operating Expenses shall
also include all general and special real estate taxes, increases in assessments or special assessments and any other ad valorem
taxes, rates, levies and assessments paid during a calendar year (or portion thereof) upon or with respect to the Building and
the personal property used by Landlord to operate the Building, whether paid to any governmental or quasi-governmental authority,
and all taxes specifically imposed in lieu of any such taxes (but excluding taxes referred to in Section 3.4 for which Tenant
or other tenants in the Building are liable) including fees of counsel and experts, reasonably incurred by, or reimbursable by
Landlord in connection with any application for a reduction in the assessed valuation of the Building and/or the land thereunder
or for a judicial review thereof, (collectively “Appeal Fees”), but solely to the extent that the Appeal Fees result
directly in a reduction of taxes otherwise payable by Tenant. However, in no event shall the portion of Operating Expenses used
to calculate any billing to Tenant attributable to real estate taxes and assessments for any expense year be less than the billing
for real estate taxes and assessments during the Base Year.

Operating Expenses shall
also include, but not be limited to, the premiums for the following insurance coverage: all-risk, structural, fire, boiler and
machinery, liability, earthquake and for replacement of tenant improvements, and for such other coverage(s), and at such policy
limit(s) as Landlord deems reasonably prudent and/or are required by any lender or ground lessor, which coverage and limits Landlord
may, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, change from time to time.

 

If, in any calendar year
following the Base Year, as defined hereinbelow (a “Subsequent Year”), a new expense item (e.g., earthquake insurance,
concierge services; entry card systems), is included in Operating Expenses which was not included in the Base Year Operating Expenses,
then the cost of such new item shall be added to the Base Year Operating Expenses for purposes of determining the Additional Rent
payable under this Article 4 for such Subsequent Year. During each Subsequent Year, the same amount shall continue to be included
in the computation of Operating Expenses for the Base Year, resulting in each such Subsequent Year Operating Expenses only including
the increase in the cost of such new item over the Base Year, as so adjusted. However, if in any Subsequent Year thereafter, such
new item is not included in Operating Expenses, no such addition shall be made to Base Year Operating Expenses.

 

Conversely, as reasonably
determined by Landlord, when an expense item that was originally included in the Base Year Operating Expenses is, in any Subsequent
Year, no longer included in Operating Expenses, then the cost of such item shall be deleted from the Base Year Operating Expenses
for purposes of determining the Additional Rent payable under this Article 4 for such Subsequent Year. The same amount shall continue
to be deleted from the Base Year Operating Expenses for each Subsequent Year thereafter that the item is not included. However,
if such expense item is again included in the Operating Expenses for any Subsequent Year, then the amount of said expense item
originally included in the Base Year Operating Expenses shall again be added back to the Base Year Operating Expenses.

 

c)           Exclusions from Operating Expenses.
Notwithstanding anything contained in the definition of Operating Expenses as set forth in Subsection 4.1(b) of this Lease, Operating
Expenses (including Building Operating Expenses) shall not include the following:

 

i.            The costs
of repairs to the Building, if and to the extent that any such costs is actually reimbursed by the insurance carried by Landlord
or subject to award under any eminent domain proceeding and the costs of restoring the Building in the event of a casualty that
is not covered by insurance that Landlord is obligated to carry pursuant to the terms of Article 19 of this Lease;

 

ii.           Depreciation,
amortization and interest payments, except as specifically permitted herein or except on materials, tools supplies and vendor-type
equipment purchased by Landlord to enable Landlord to supply services Landlord might otherwise contract for with a third party
where such depreciation, amortization and interest payments would otherwise have been included in the charge for such third party’s
services. In such a circumstance, the inclusion of all depreciation, amortization and interest payments shall be determined pursuant
to generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, amortized over the reasonably anticipated useful life of the
capital item for which such amortization, depreciation or interest allocation was calculated;

 

iii.          Marketing
costs, including leasing commissions, attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of letters,
deal memos, letters of intent, leases subleases and/or assignments, space planning costs, and other costs and expenses incurred
in connection with lease, sublease and/or assignment negotiations and transactions with present or prospective tenants or other
occupants of the Building;

 

iv.           Expenses
for services not offered to Tenant or for which Tenant is charged directly, whether or not such services or other benefits are
provided to another tenant or occupant of the Building;

d)           “Tenant’s Share”
means 0.88%.

 

Section 4.2. Calculation of Tenant’s
Share of Increases in Operating Expenses. If, commencing with the calendar year 2018, the Operating Expenses for any calendar
year during the Term, or portion thereof, (including the last calendar year of the Term), have increased over the Operating Expenses
for the calendar year 2017 (the “Base Year”), then within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s
computation of such increase (an “Escalation Statement”), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, an amount
equal to the product obtained by multiplying such increase by Tenant’s Share.

 

Landlord may, at or after
the start of any calendar year subsequent to the Base Year, notify Tenant of the amount which Landlord estimates will be Tenant’s
monthly share of any such increase in Operating Expenses for such calendar year over the Base Year and the amount thereof shall
be paid as Additional Rent at the same time and in the same manner as Fixed Monthly Rent payments required to be made by Tenant
in such year. If Tenant’s Share of any such increase in rent payable hereunder as shown on the Escalation Statement is greater
or less than the total amounts actually billed to and paid by Tenant during the year covered by such statement, then within thirty
(30) days thereafter, Tenant shall pay in cash any sums owed Landlord or, if applicable, Tenant shall either receive a credit against
any Fixed Monthly Rent and/or Additional Rent next accruing for any sum owed Tenant, or if Landlord’s Escalation Statement
is rendered after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and indicates that Tenant’s estimated payments have
exceeded the total amount to which Tenant was obligated, then provided that Landlord is not owed any other sum by Tenant, Landlord
shall issue a cash refund to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s completion of such Escalation Statement.

 

Section 4.2.1. Audit. In the event Tenant
disputes the amount of Additional Rent set forth in the Escalation Statement, then Tenant may, within one hundred twenty (120)
days after Tenant receives the subject Escalation Statement, engage an independent certified public accountant (which accountant
shall be a member of a nationally recognized accounting firm and is not working on a contingency fee basis), designated and paid
for by Tenant, to inspect Landlord’s records with respect to such Escalation Statement at the offices of Landlord where such
records are customarily maintained or at such other location reasonably selected by Landlord provided that:

 

a)           Tenant is not then in default
under this Lease;

b)           Tenant provides Landlord with
written notice of the dispute, which notice shall state with reasonable particularity the basis for the dispute, the amount at
issue and identifying the accountant engaged or to be engaged by Tenant;

 

c)           Tenant has paid all amounts that
are required to be paid under the applicable Escalation Statement;

 

d)           Such inspection is conducted during
Landlord’s customary business hours (with such inspection to be completed within one (1) business day) at time(s) reasonably
designated by Landlord;

 

e)           Tenant and Tenant’s agents
shall, in a writing delivered to Landlord, agree in advance of such inspection to follow Landlord’s reasonable rules and
procedures regarding inspections of Landlord’s records (including, without limitation, no photocopying);

 

f)           Prior to any inspection of Landlord’s
records, Tenant and Tenant’s agents execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding such inspection
and deliver an original of the same to Landlord; and

 

g)           Tenant’s failure to provide
written notice to Landlord in accordance with clause b), above, within one hundred twenty (120) days after Tenant’s receipt
of the applicable Escalation Statement shall be deemed to be Tenant’s approval of such statement and, in case of such failure,
Tenant, after the expiration of such one hundred twenty (120)-day period, shall have waived its right to dispute the amounts set
forth in such statement. In addition, Tenant’s right of inspection hereunder shall be waived in the event Tenant fails to
comply with any of the provisions of this Section 4.2.1.

 

If, after such inspection,
if any, Tenant still disputes such Additional Rent, a determination as to the proper amount shall be made, at Tenant’s expense,
by an independent certified public accountant (the “Accountant”) selected by Landlord and subject to Tenant’s
reasonable approval; provided that if such determination by the Accountant proves that the Operating Expenses (for the Building
as a whole) were overstated in the applicable Escalation Statement by more than four percent (4%), then the fees and expenses of
the Accountant and all other costs of such determination shall be paid for by Landlord. However, if the Operating Expenses (for
the Building as a whole) were overstated in the applicable Escalation Statement by four percent (4%) or less, or was in fact understated,
Tenant shall promptly pay the fees and expenses of the Accountant and all other costs of such determination (including, without
limitation, the amount of Operating Expenses owed to Landlord as evidenced by the inspection). Any reconciliation of charges set
forth in the Escalation Statement, which is necessitated by the inspection, shall be paid or credited by Tenant or Landlord, as
applicable, in accordance with this Section 4.2.1. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant’s sole right to inspect Landlord’s
books and records and to contest the amount of Operating Expenses payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section 4.2.1
and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to applicable law to inspect such books and records and/or to contest
the amount of Operating Expenses payable by Tenant.

 

Section 4.3. Tenant’s Payment of Direct
Charges as Additional Rent. Tenant shall promptly and duly pay all costs and expenses incurred for or in connection with any
Tenant Change (as such term is defined in Section 12.12 of this Lease) or Tenant Service (as such term is defined in Section 8.10
of this Lease), and discharge any mechanic's or other lien created against the Premises, Building or the Real Property arising
as a result of or in connection with any Tenant Change or Tenant Service as Additional Rent by paying the same, bonding in any
other commercially reasonable manner or as otherwise provided by law.

 

Any other cost, expense,
charge, amount or sum (other than Fixed Monthly Rent) payable by Tenant as provided in this Lease shall also be considered Additional
Rent.

Certain individual items
of cost or expense may, in the reasonable determination of Landlord, be separately charged and billed to Tenant by Landlord, either
alone or in conjunction with another party or parties, if they are deemed in good faith by Landlord to apply solely to Tenant and/or
such other party or parties and are not otherwise normally recaptured by Landlord as part of normal operating expenses. Insofar
as is reasonable, Landlord shall attempt to give Tenant prior notice and the opportunity to cure any circumstance that would give
rise to such separate and direct billing.

 

Said separate billing shall
be paid as Additional Rent, regardless of Tenant’s Share. Such allocations by Landlord shall be binding on Tenant unless
patently unreasonable, and shall be payable within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Landlord’s billing therefor.

ETHICS

 

Section 5.1. Ethics. Landlord and Tenant
agree to conduct their business or practice in compliance with any appropriate and applicable codes of professional or business
practice.

 

ARTICLE 6

USE OF PREMISES

 

Section 6.1. Use. The Premises shall
only be used for general office use consistent with the operation of a first-class office building in the Encino area (the “Specified
Use”) and for no other purposes, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall be in Landlord’s
sole discretion. Any proposed revision of the Specified Use by Tenant shall be for a use consistent with those customarily found
in first-class office buildings. Reasonable grounds for Landlord withholding its consent shall include, but not be limited to:

 

a)           the proposed use will place a
disproportionate burden on the Building systems;

 

b)           the proposed use is for governmental
or medical purposes or for a company whose primary business is that of conducting boiler-room type transactions or sales;

 

c)           the proposed use would generate
excessive foot traffic to the Premises and/or Building.

 

So long as Tenant is in
control of the Premises, Tenant covenants and agrees that it shall not use, suffer or permit any person(s) to use all or any portion
of the Premises for any purpose in violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California, or the ordinances,
regulations or requirements of the City or County of Los Angeles, or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Building.

 

Tenant shall not do or
permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct or unreasonably interfere with the rights of
other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure or annoy them. Tenant shall not use or allow the Premises to be used for
any pornographic or violent purposes, nor shall Tenant cause, commit, maintain or permit the continuance of any nuisance or waste
in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall not use the Premises in any manner that in Landlord’s reasonable judgment would
adversely affect or interfere with any services Landlord is required to furnish to Tenant or to any other tenant or occupant of
the Building, or that would interfere with or obstruct the proper and economical rendition of any such service.

 

Section 6.2. Exclusive Use. Landlord
represents that Tenant’s Specified Use of the Premises does not conflict with exclusive use provisions granted by Landlord
in other leases for the Building. Landlord further agrees that it shall, in the future, not grant an exclusive use privilege to
any other tenant in the Building that will prevent Tenant from continuing to use the Premises for its Specified Use.

 

Encino Terrace / Research Solutions, Inc. / MK / December 29, 2016

	 	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  

 

    	 	 16	 

     

    

 

Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that it shall not engage in any of the uses specified hereinbelow, for which Landlord has already granted exclusive rights:
the retail sale of snacks, convenience foods, candy, cards, stationary, magazines or similar items (vending machines excluded).

 

Provided that Tenant has
received written notice of the same from Landlord, and further provided that Landlord does not grant a future exclusive use right
that prohibits Tenant from engaging in the Specified Use, then Tenant agrees that it shall not violate any exclusive use provision(s)
granted by Landlord to other tenants in the Building.

 

Section 6.3. Rules and Regulations. Tenant
shall observe and comply with the rules and regulations set forth in Exhibit C, and such other and further reasonable and non-discriminatory
rules and regulations as Landlord may make or adopt and communicate to Tenant in writing at any time or from time to time, when
said rules, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, may be necessary or desirable to ensure the first-class operation, maintenance,
reputation or appearance of the Building, provided such further rules and regulations do not adversely affect Tenant’s rights
under this Lease or Tenant’s use or occupancy or, or access to, the Premises. However, if any conflict arises between the
provisions of this Lease and any such rule or regulation, the provisions of this Lease shall control.

 

Provided Landlord makes
commercially reasonable efforts to seek compliance by all occupants of the Building with the rules and regulations adopted by Landlord,
Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the failure of any other tenants or occupants of the Building to comply with said
rules and regulations.

 

ARTICLE 7

VACATING & REMOVAL OF PROPERTY

 

Section 7.1. Condition upon Vacating. At
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall:

 

a)           terminate its occupancy of, quit
and surrender to Landlord, all or such portion of the Premises upon which this Lease has so terminated, broom-clean and in the
same condition as received except for:

 

		i)	ordinary wear and tear, or

 

		ii)	loss or damage by fire or other casualty; and

 

b)           surrender the Premises free of
any and all debris and trash and any of Tenant’s personal property, furniture, fixtures and equipment that do not otherwise
become a part of the Real Property, pursuant to the provisions contained in Section 7.2 hereinbelow; and

 

c)           at Tenant’s sole expense,
forthwith and with all due diligence remove any Tenant Change (as defined in Section 12.12 of this Lease) and, if requested by
Landlord in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, restore the Premises to the condition existing immediately prior to
the Tenant Change, subject to clauses (a)(i) and (a)(ii) immediately above. However, Tenant shall only be obligated to remove said
Tenant Change if (i) the Tenant Change was made without Landlord’s approval; (ii) the Tenant Change is an atypical improvement
and Landlord notified Tenant of its obligation to remove the same pursuant to clause (iii) below; and/or (iii) Landlord notified
Tenant of its obligation to do so in writing at the time Landlord approved Tenant’s request for a Tenant Change. If Tenant
fails to complete such removal and/or restoration and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal or restoration of any Tenant
Change, Landlord may do so and may charge the cost thereof to Tenant pursuant to Section 20.26 of this Lease or deduct the cost
from the Security Deposit under Section 3.7 of this Lease. Tenant shall not be obligated to remove the Improvements, the Additional
Improvements, any Cosmetic Alterations or any data, telecom and other cabling and wiring installed by or for Tenant in the Premises
(including any of the same installed above the ceiling plenum). In addition, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease,
Tenant shall remove any security system or devices installed by Tenant, in either case whether or not the installation was performed
as part of the Improvements constructed in the Premises or after such time, and Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such removal.

Section 7.2. Tenant’s Property.
All fixtures, equipment, improvements and installations attached or built into the Premises at any time during the Term shall,
at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, be deemed the property of Landlord; become a permanent part of the Premises
and remain therein. However, if said fixtures, equipment, improvements and/or installations can be removed without causing any
structural damage to the Premises, then, provided after such removal Tenant restores the Premises to the condition existing prior
to installation of Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, improvements and/or installations, Tenant shall be permitted, at Tenant’s
sole expense, to remove the same.

 

The provisions of this
Article 7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

Article 8 are defined as 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M., Monday through Friday, and 9:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. on Saturday, any one or

each such Holiday.

 

Section 8.2. Access to the Building and
General Services. Subject to Force Majeure and any power outage(s) which may occur in the Building when the same are out of

bulb replacement for building standard lights;

 

b)           access to and use of the parking

shall furnish the Premises with reasonable and customary janitorial services five (5) days per business week, except when the Building
is closed on any Holiday. Landlord shall retain the sole discretion to choose and/or revise the janitorial company providing said

Section 8.4. Security Services. Tenant
acknowledges that Landlord currently provides uniformed guard service to the Building solely for the purposes of providing surveillance
of, and information and directional assistance to persons entering the Building.

Tenant acknowledges that
such guard service shall not provide any measure of security or safety to the Building or the Premises, and that Tenant shall take
such actions as it may deem necessary and reasonable to ensure the safety and security of Tenant’s property or person or
the property or persons of Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners
or shareholders. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that, except in the case of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord
or its directors, employees, officers, partners or shareholders, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant in any manner whatsoever
arising out of the failure of Landlord’s guard service to secure any person or property from harm.

 

Tenant agrees and acknowledges
that Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, shall have the option, but not the obligation to add, decrease, revise the
hours of and/or change the level of services being provided by any guard company serving the Building. Tenant further agrees that
Tenant shall not engage or hire any outside guard or security company without Landlord’s prior written consent, which shall
be in Landlord’s sole discretion.

 

Section 8.5. Utilities. During Normal
Business Hours Landlord shall furnish a reasonable level of water, heat, ventilation and air conditioning (“HVAC”),
and a sufficient amount of electric current to provide customary business lighting and to operate ordinary office business machines,
such as a single personal computer and ancillary printer per two hundred and fifty (250) usable square feet contained in the Premises,
facsimile machines, small copiers customarily used for general office purposes, and such other equipment and office machines as
do not result in above-standard use of the existing electrical system. So long as the same remain reasonably cost competitive,
Landlord shall retain the sole discretion to choose the utility vendor(s) to supply such services to the Premises and the Building.

 

Except with the prior written
consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Tenant shall not install or use any equipment,
apparatus or device in the Premises that requires the installation of a 208 voltage circuit; consumes more than five (5) kilowatts
per hour per item; or the aggregate use of which will in any way increase the connected load to more than 5 Watts per usable square
foot, or cause the amount of electricity to be furnished or supplied for use in the Premises to more than 1.2 kWh per usable square
foot, per month.

 

Except with the prior written
consent of Landlord, Tenant shall not connect any electrical equipment to the electrical system of the Building, except through
electrical outlets already existing in the Premises, nor shall Tenant pierce, revise, delete or add to the electrical, plumbing,
mechanical or HVAC systems in the Premises.

 

Section 8.6. After Hours HVAC and/or Excess
Utility Usage. If Tenant requires HVAC service during other than Normal Business Hours (“Excess HVAC”), Tenant
shall make its request in writing at least six (6) hours before the close of the normal business day, and Tenant must purchase
a minimum of four (4) hours of Excess HVAC. Otherwise, Landlord shall have no obligation to provide Excess HVAC. Tenant’s
request shall be deemed conclusive evidence of its willingness and obligation to pay the then prevailing charge for Excess HVAC
at the Building, which charge shall be subject to increases in Landlord’s sole discretion.

 

If Tenant requires electric
current in excess of the amounts specified hereinabove in this Article 8, or water or gas in excess of that customarily furnished
to the Premises as office space (“Excess Utility Use”), Tenant shall first procure Landlord’s prior written consent
to such Excess Utility Use, which Landlord may reasonably refuse.

 

In lieu of Landlord’s
refusal, Landlord may cause a meter or sub-meter to be installed to measure the amount of water, gas and/or electric current consumed
by Tenant in the Premises. The cost of any such meter(s), and the installation, maintenance, and repair thereof, shall be paid
by Tenant as Additional Rent.

    	 	 19	 

     

    

 

After completing installation
of said meter(s), and/or if Tenant requests Excess HVAC, then Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, within thirty (30) calendar
days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s billing, for the actual amounts of all Excess Utility Use and/or Excess HVAC.
Said billing shall be calculated on the usage indicated by such meter(s), sub-meter(s), or Tenant’s written request therefor,
and shall be issued by Landlord at the rates charged for such services by the local public utility furnishing the same, plus any
additional expense reasonably incurred by Landlord in providing said Excess Utility Use and/or in keeping account of the Excess
Utility Use, plus an administrative and billing fee equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the costs so billed.

 

Section 8.7. Changes Affecting HVAC. Tenant
shall also pay as Additional Rent for any additional costs Landlord incurs to repair any failure of the HVAC equipment and systems
to perform their function when said failure arises out of or in connection with any change in, or alterations to, the arrangement
of partitioning in the Premises after the Commencement Date, or from occupancy by, on average, more than one person for every two
hundred fifty (250) usable square feet of the Premises, or from Tenant’s failure to keep all HVAC vents within the Premises
free of obstruction.

 

Section 8.8. Damaged or Defective Systems.
Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord after Tenant becomes aware of any alleged damage to, or defective condition in
any part or appurtenance of the Building's sanitary, electrical, HVAC or other systems serving, located in, or passing through,
the Premises. Provided that the repair or remedy of said damage or defective condition is within the reasonable control of Landlord,
it shall be remedied by Landlord as soon as reasonably practicable. Otherwise, Landlord shall make such commercially reasonable
efforts as may be available to Landlord to effect such remedy or repair, but subject to the express provisions of Section 8.9 in
the event of an Abatement Event, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any failure thereof, nor shall Tenant be entitled to
claim any damages arising from any such damage or defective condition nor shall Tenant be entitled to claim any eviction by reason
of any such damage or defective condition.

 

If such damage or defective
condition was caused by, or is attributed to, a Tenant Change or the unreasonable or improper use of such system(s) by Tenant or
its employees, licensees or invitees:

 

a)           the cost of the remedy thereof
shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3;

 

b)           in no event shall Tenant be entitled
to any abatement of rent as specified above; and

 

c)           Tenant shall be estopped from
making any claim for damages arising out of Landlord’s repair thereof.

 

Section 8.9. Limitation on Landlord’s
Liability for Failure to Provide Utilities and/or Services. Subject to the express provisions of Section 8.9 in the event of
an Abatement Event, Tenant hereby releases the Landlord Parties from any liability for damages, by abatement of rent or otherwise,
for any failure or delay in furnishing any of the services or utilities specified in this Article 8 (including, but not limited
to telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof.

 

Tenant’s release
of the Landlord Parties’ liability shall be applicable when such failure, delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or
in part, by repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by Landlord’s inability
to secure electricity, gas, water or other fuel at the Building after Landlord’s reasonable effort to do so, by accident
or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable
control. Such failures, delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute a constructive eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s
use and possession of the Premises, or serve to relieve Tenant from paying Rent or performing any of its obligations under this
Lease, subject to the express provisions of this Section 8.9 in the event of an Abatement Event.

Furthermore, the Landlord
Parties shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including,
without limitation, any loss of profits occurring or arising through or in connection with or incidental to Landlord’s failure
to furnish any of the services or utilities required by this Article 8.

 

Notwithstanding the above,
Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy any delay, defect or insufficiency in providing the services and or
utilities required hereunder.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if Tenant is prevented from using and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of (a) Landlord’s failure
to provide services or utilities as required by this Lease; (b) any Renovations (as such term is defined in Section 12.11 of this
Lease) performed pursuant to Section 12.11 of this Lease; (c) any Work (as such term is defined in Section 12.10 of this Lease)
performed pursuant to Section 12.10 of this Lease; (d) any damage or defective condition (as specified in Section 8.8, above) that
is caused by an act or omission of Landlord; or (e) Landlord’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, illegal activity or
breach or default of its obligations under this Lease (after giving effect to any notice and cure provisions) (each an “Abatement
Event”), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event and if such Abatement Event continues for three (3)
consecutive business days after Landlord’s receipt of any such Notice (the “Eligibility Period”), and such failure
is not attributable to, or caused by, the acts of Tenant, or a cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, then the Fixed
Monthly Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for
such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises, or a portion thereof, in the proportion
that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use (“Unusable Area”),
bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does
not use, the Unusable Area for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is
not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein and if Tenant does not conduct its business from such
remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from effectively
conducting its business therein, the Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent for the entire Premises shall be abated for such time
as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises. If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of
the Premises during such period, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area
of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the
date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises. Such right to abate Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent shall be Tenant’s
sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for an Abatement Event.

 

Section 8.10. Tenant Provided Services.
Tenant shall make no contract or employ any labor in connection with the maintenance, cleaning or other servicing of the physical
structures of the Premises or for installation of any computer, telephone or other cabling, equipment or materials provided in
or to the Premises (collectively and individually a “Tenant Service”) without the prior consent of Landlord, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall not permit the use of any labor, material or equipment
in the performance of any Tenant Service if the use thereof, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would violate the provisions
of any agreement between Landlord and any union providing work, labor or services in or about the Premises, Building and/or disturb
labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building or the
Common Areas. If any violation, disturbance, interference or conflict occurs, Tenant, upon demand by Landlord, shall immediately
cause all contractors or subcontractors or all materials causing the violation, disturbance, interference, difficulty or conflict,
to leave or be removed from the Building or the Common Areas immediately. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from
and against all claims, suits, demands, damages, judgments, costs, interest and expenses (including attorneys fees and costs incurred
in the defense thereof) to which Landlord may be subject or suffer when the same arise out of or in connection with the use of,
work in, construction to, or actions in, on, upon or about the Premises by any Tenant Party (as hereinafter defined), including
any actions relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any Tenant Service, improvements, fixtures and/or
equipment in, on, upon or about the Premises.

damages, judgments, reasonable costs, lawful interest and reasonable expenses (including attorneys fees and costs incurred in the
defense thereof) to which any the Landlord Parties may be subject or suffer but only when the same arise out of the negligence
or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, contractors, invitees, directors, employees, licensees, officers,
partners or shareholders (collectively, “Tenant Parties”) in connection with the use of, work in, construction to,
or actions in, on, upon or about the Premises, including any actions relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing
of any Tenant Change, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on, upon or about the Premises.

 

Tenant’s indemnification

(including any loss of use thereof), or otherwise, occurring during the Term or prior to the Commencement Date (if Tenant has been
given early access to the Premises for whatever purpose, and did access the Premises) and to all claims arising or resulting from
any condition or use of the Premises, the Building and/or the Real Property, and the conduct of Tenant’s business by any
Tenant Party or any other activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by any of Tenant Party, in or about the Premises,
the Building or elsewhere on the Real Property or due to or resulting from any default by Tenant in the keeping, observance or
performance of any covenant or provision of this Lease, or from the negligence or willful misconduct of any Tenant Party.

 

Section 9.2. Nullity of Tenant’s Indemnification
in Event of Negligence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant’s indemnification shall
not extend to the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord’s agents,
contractors, directors, employees, officers, partners or shareholders, nor to (i) such events and occurrences for which Landlord
otherwise carries insurance coverage or (ii) any breach or default by Landlord of any of Landlord’s obligations under this
Lease that extend after the expiration of any notice and cure period.

 

Section 9.3. Tenant’s Waiver of Liability.
Provided and to the extent that any injury or damage suffered by Tenant or Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors,
employees, invitees, officers, partners, and/or shareholders did not arise out of the negligence or willful misconduct of any Landlord
Parties, Tenant shall make no claim against Landlord and Landlord shall not be liable or responsible in any way for, and Tenant
hereby waives all claims against Landlord with respect to or arising out of injury or damage to any person or property in or about
the Premises by or from any cause whatsoever under the reasonable
control or management of Tenant or any Tenant Party, except as may otherwise be expressly set forth in this Lease.

 

Section 9.4. Limitation of Landlord’s
Liability. Tenant expressly agrees that, notwithstanding anything in this Lease and/or any applicable law to the contrary,
the liability of the Landlord Parties, and any recourse by Tenant against Landlord or the Landlord Parties shall be limited solely
and exclusively to Tenant’s actual direct damages, but not consequential damages (including but not limited to loss of profits,
loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of use, in each case however occurring), therefor and shall be recoverable
only from the interest of Landlord in the Building.

Tenant specifically agrees
that the Landlord Parties shall have no personal liability therefor. Further, Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such
personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant.

 

Section 9.5. Transfer of Landlord’s
Liability. Tenant expressly agrees that, to the extent that any transferee assumes the obligations of Landlord hereunder in
writing, and provided Landlord has either transferred the complete Security Deposit held pursuant to this Lease or refunded the
same to Tenant as of the date of such transfer, then the covenants and agreements on the part of Landlord to be performed under
this Lease which arise and/or accrue after the date of such transfer shall not be binding upon Landlord herein named from and after
the date of transfer of its interest in the Building.

 

Section 9.6.  Landlord’s Indemnification.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease, Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant and Tenant’s agents,
clients, directors, officers, partners, employees, shareholders and contractors harmless from and against, any and all claims,
suits, demands, causes of action, liabilities, losses, reasonable costs, lawful interest and reasonable expenses, including reasonable
attorney’s fees and court costs, arising from or in connection with:

 

a)           Any activity occurring, or condition
existing, at or in the Building and/or the Real Property (other than in the Premises) when such activity or condition is under
the reasonable control of Landlord, except and to the extent the same is caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant
or Tenant’s employees, agents, licensee, invitees, or contractors, or by Tenant’s breach or default in the performance
of any obligation under this Lease;

 

b)           Any activity occurring, or condition
existing in the Premises when and to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s
employees, agents or contractors;

 

c)           Landlord’s violation of
applicable law; or

 

d)           Any breach or default by Landlord
of any of Landlord’s obligations under this Lease that extend after the expiration of any notice and cure period.

 

ARTICLE 10

COMPLIANCE WITH
LAWS

 

Section 10.1. Tenant’s Compliance
with Laws. Tenant shall not use, permit to be used, or permit anything to be done in or about all or any portion of the Premises
which will in any way violate any laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, orders or regulations duly issued by any governmental authority
having jurisdiction over the Premises, or by the Board of Fire Underwriters (or any successor thereto) (collectively “Codes”).

 

Section 10.2. Tenant to Comply at Sole Expense.
Tenant shall, at its sole expense, promptly remedy any violation of such Codes as a result of its failure to comply with Section
10.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 10.2 shall require or permit Tenant to make any structural
changes to the Premises, unless such changes are required due to either Tenant or Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors,
directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders use of the Premises for purposes other than general
office purposes consistent with a Class A office building, in which case any such change in use shall be subject to the restrictions
specified in Section 6.1 of this Lease.

 

Section 10.3. Conclusive Evidence of Violation.
The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction; Tenant’s admission; or the admission of any other Tenant Party in
any action against Tenant, whether or not Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has so violated any one or more Codes shall
be conclusive evidence of such violation as between Landlord and Tenant.

ARTICLE 11

ASSIGNMENT AND
SUBLETTING

 

Section 11.1. Permission Required for Assignment
or Sublet. Except as otherwise set forth in this Lease, unless Landlord’s prior written consent has been given, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (subject to the express provisions of this Article 11), this
Lease shall not, nor shall any interest herein, be assignable as to the interest of Tenant by operation of law; nor shall Tenant:

 

a)           assign Tenant’s interest
in this Lease; or

 

b)           sublet the Premises or any part
thereof or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be utilized by anyone other than Tenant, whether as by a concessionaire,
franchisee, licensee, permittee or otherwise (collectively, a “sublease”).

 

In addition, except for
Transfers under clauses (a) or (b), Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease, the Term and/or
estate hereby granted or any interest herein without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

Any assignment, mortgage,
pledge, encumbrance, transfer or sublease (collectively, any “Transfer”) without Landlord’s prior written consent
shall be voidable, and, in Landlord’s sole election, shall constitute a material default under this Lease.

 

Section 11.2. Voluntary Assignment due to
Changes in Structure of Tenant. Any dissolution, merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant, or the single sale
or other transfer of a controlling percentage of the capital stock of Tenant (other than the sale of such stock pursuant to a public
offering that results in a majority of the same members of the Board and executive officers remaining in control of said corporation)
and or the single sale of fifty percent (50%) or more of the value of the assets of Tenant, shall be deemed a voluntary assignment.
The phrase “controlling percentage” means the ownership of, and the right to vote stock possessing fifty percent (50%)
or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Tenant’s capital stock issued, outstanding, and entitled to
vote for the election of directors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Section 11.2 shall not apply
to corporations whose stock is traded through a recognized United States exchange or over the counter.

 

Section 11.2.1. Affiliated Companies/Restructuring
of Business Organization. Any contrary provision of this Article 11 notwithstanding, a change of Tenant’s name or the
assignment by Tenant of all of its rights under this Lease or the subletting by Tenant of all or any portion of the Premises to
(i) a parent or subsidiary of Tenant, (ii) any person or entity which controls, is controlled by or under common control with Tenant,
(iii) any entity which purchases all or substantially all of the assets or stock of Tenant, (iv) any entity into which Tenant is
merged or consolidated, (v) any entity which results from the merger or consolidation of entities which control, are controlled
by or under common control with Tenant or (vi) the temporary use or occupancy of portions of the Premises by a party or parties
in connection with the transaction of business with Tenant or with an entity which is controlled by, controls or is under common
control with Tenant (all such persons or entities described in (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) being sometimes hereinafter
referred to as “Affiliates”) shall not be deemed a Transfer under this Article 11 and thus shall not be subject to
Landlord’s prior consent, and Landlord shall not be entitled to any Net Rental Profit resulting therefrom, provided that:

 

a)           Any such Affiliate was not formed
as a subterfuge to avoid the obligations of this Article 11;

 

Encino Terrace / Research Solutions, Inc. / MK / December 29, 2016

 

	 	____	____	____	____
	 	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  

 

    	 	 24	 

     

    

 

b)           Tenant gives Landlord prior notice
of any such assignment or sublease to an Affiliate;

 

c)           The successor of Tenant and Tenant
have as of the effective date of any such assignment or sublease a tangible net worth, in the aggregate, computed in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles (but excluding good will as an asset), which is sufficient to meet the remaining
obligations of Tenant under this Lease, as reasonably determined by Landlord;

 

d)           Any such assignment or sublease
shall be subject and subordinate to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, and such assignee or sublessee shall be deemed
to have assumed all of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease with respect to that portion of the Premises which is the subject
of such Transfer (other than the amount of Fixed Monthly Rent payable by Tenant with respect to a sublease); and

 

e)           Tenant shall remain fully liable
for all obligations to be performed by Tenant under this Lease.

 

Section 11.3. Request to Assign or Sublease.
If at any time during the Term, Tenant wishes to assign this Lease or any interest therein, or to sublet all or any portion
of the Premises, then at least fifteen (15) business days prior to the date when Tenant desires the assignment or sublease to be
effective, Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord setting forth the name, address, and business of the proposed assignee
or sublessee, business and personal credit applications completed on Landlord’s standard application forms, and information
(including references and such financial documentation as Landlord shall reasonably prescribe) concerning the character and financial
condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the effective date of the assignment or sublease, and all the material terms and
conditions of the proposed assignment, and with reference solely to a sublease: a detailed description of the space proposed to
be sublet, together with any rights of the proposed sublessee to use Tenant’s improvements and/or ancillary services with
the Premises.

 

Section 11.4. Landlord’s Consent.
Landlord shall have fifteen (15) business days after Tenant’s notice of assignment and/or sublease is received with the
financial information reasonably requested by Landlord to advise Tenant of Landlord’s (i) consent to such proposed assignment
or sublease, (ii) withholding of consent to such proposed assignment or sublease, or (iii) election to terminate this Lease, such
termination to be effective as of the date of the commencement of the proposed assignment or subletting. If Landlord shall exercise
its termination right hereunder, Landlord shall have the right to enter into a lease or other occupancy agreement directly with
the proposed assignee or subtenant, and Tenant shall have no right to any of the rents or other consideration payable by such proposed
assignee or subtenant under such other lease or occupancy agreement, even if such rents and other consideration exceed the rent
payable under this Lease by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right to lease the Premises to any other tenant, or not lease the Premises,
in its sole and absolute discretion. Landlord and Tenant specifically agree that Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease
under clause (iii) above is a material consideration for Landlord’s agreement to enter into this Lease and such right may
be exercised in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion and no test of reasonableness shall be applicable thereto; provided,
however, that Landlord may exercise the termination right described in said clause (iii) only if Tenant proposes to assign this
Lease or sublet more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises for a term covering substantially the remainder of the Term of this
Lease.

 

Tenant acknowledges
that Landlord’s consent shall be based upon the criteria listed in Sections 11.4 (a) through (e) below, and subject
to Landlord’s right to reasonably disapprove of any proposed assignment and/or sublease, based on the existence of any condition
contained within Section 11.5 hereinbelow. If Landlord provides its consent within the time period specified, Tenant shall be free
to complete the assignment and/or sublet such space to the party contained in Tenant’s notice, subject to the following conditions:

	 	____	____	____	____
	 	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  

 

 

    	 	 25	 

     

    

 

a)           The assignment
and/or sublease shall be on substantially the same terms as were set forth in the notice given to Landlord;

 

b)           The assignment and/or sublease
shall be documented in a written format that is reasonably acceptable to Landlord, which form shall specifically include the assignee’s
and/or sublessee’s acknowledgement and acceptance of the obligation contained in this Lease, in so far as applicable;

 

c)           The assignment and/or sublease
shall not be valid, nor shall the assignee or sublessee take possession of the Premises, or subleased portion thereof, until an
executed duplicate original of such sublease and/or assignment has been delivered to Landlord;

 

d)           The assignee and/or sublessee
shall have no further right to assign this Lease and/or sublease the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord;

 

e)           In the event of any Transfer,
Landlord shall receive as Additional Rent hereunder (and without affecting or reducing any other obligation of Tenant under this
Lease) fifty percent (50%) of Tenant’s “Net Rental Profit” derived from such Transfer. If Tenant shall elect
to Transfer, Tenant shall use reasonable and good faith efforts to secure consideration from any such Transferee which would be
generally equivalent to then-current market rent, but in no event shall Tenant’s monetary obligations to Landlord, as set
forth in this Lease, be reduced. “Net Rental Profit” shall mean all rent actually received by Tenant during any month
during the term of such sublease from such subtenant in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent
payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the
Premises is transferred, after deducting the reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with such Transfer for (i) advertising
costs, (ii) any improvement allowance or other economic concessions (e.g., space planning allowance and moving expenses) paid by
Tenant in connection with such Transfer, (iii) any brokerage commissions incurred by Tenant in connection with the Transfer, and
(iv) reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Tenant in connection with the Transfer. “Net Rental Profit” shall
not include any consideration actually received by Tenant which cannot reasonable be characterized as rent, including any consideration
received in connection with (X) a sale of all or any portion of its assets or capital stock or in connection with any merger or
consolidation or in connection with any other matter or thing not specifically related to the Lease, or (Y) the purchase or sale
of any of Tenant’s shares of capital stock.

 

Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord a statement within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar year and/or within thirty (30) days after the expiration
or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease in which any Transfer has occurred, specifying for each such Transfer:

 

i)            the date of its execution and
delivery, the number of square feet of the Rentable Area demised thereby, and the Term thereof, and

 

ii)           a computation in reasonable detail
showing the amounts (if any) paid and payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Section 11.4 with respect to such Transfer
for the period covered by such statement, and the amounts (if any) paid and payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Section
11.4 with respect to any payments received from a Transferee during such period but which relate to an earlier period.

 

Section 11.5. Reasonable Grounds for Denial
of Assignment and/or Sublease. Landlord and Tenant agree that, in addition to such other reasonable grounds as Landlord may
assert for withholding its consent, it shall be reasonable under this Lease and any applicable law for Landlord to withhold its
consent to any proposed Transfer, where any one or more of the following conditions exists:

 

Encino Terrace / Research Solutions, Inc. / MK / December 29, 2016

 

	 	____	____	____	____
	 	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  	Initial  

 

    	 	 26	 

     

    

 

a)           The proposed sublessee or assignee
(a “Transferee”) is, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, of a character or reputation which is not consistent
with those businesses customarily found in a Class A office building;

 

b)           The Transferee is engaged in a
business or intends to use all or any portion of the Premises for purposes which are not consistent with those generally found
in the Building or other Class A office buildings in the vicinity of the Building, provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord
be permitted to decline Tenant’s request for a Transfer solely on the basis of said Transferee’s intent to change the
Specified Use from that of Tenant, unless such proposed change shall violate any Exclusive Use provision already granted by Landlord;

 

c)           The Transferee is either a governmental
agency or instrumentality thereof;

 

d)           The Transfer will result in more
than a reasonable and safe number of occupants within the Premises;

 

e)           The Transferee is not a party
of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities involved under the sublease, if a sublessee,
or this Lease, if an assignee, on the date consent is requested, or has demonstrated a prior history of credit instability or unworthiness;

 

f)           The Transfer will cause Landlord
to be in violation of another lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party, or would give another occupant of the Building a
right to cancel its lease;

 

g)           Intentionally Omitted;

 

h)           The proposed Transferee is a tenant
in the Building at the time Tenant requests approval of the proposed Transfer, or is engaged in on-going negotiations with Landlord
to lease comparable space in the Building at the time Tenant requests approval of the proposed Transfer; or

 

i)           The Transferee intends to use
all or a portion of the Premises for medical procedures or for a primary business which is as a boiler-room type sales or marketing
organization.

 

If Landlord withholds
or conditions its consent and Tenant believes that Landlord did so contrary to the terms of this Lease, Tenant may, as its sole
remedy, prosecute an action for declaratory relief to determine if Landlord properly withheld or conditioned its consent, and Tenant
hereby waives all other remedies, including without limitation those set forth in California Civil Code Section 1995.310.

 

Section 11.6. Tenant’s Continued Obligation.
Any consent by Landlord to an assignment of this Lease and/or sublease of the Premises shall not release Tenant from any of
Tenant’s obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to any subsequent hypothecation, assignment, subletting,
occupation or use by another person, and Tenant shall remain liable to pay the Rent and/or perform all other obligations to be
performed by Tenant hereunder. Landlord’s acceptance of Rent or Additional Rent from any other person shall not be deemed
to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease. Landlord’s consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be
deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.

 

If any assignee or
sublessee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant defaults in the performance of any of the provisions of this Lease, whether or not
Landlord has collected Rent directly from said assignee or sublessee, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the
necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee, sublessee or other successor-in-interest.

 

Provided that in no
event shall any further assignment, sublease, amendment or modification to this Lease serve to either increase Tenant’s liability
or expand Tenant’s duties or obligations hereunder, or relieve Tenant of its liability under this Lease, then Landlord may
consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or amendments or modifications to this Lease with any assignee, without
notifying Tenant or any successor of Tenant, and without obtaining their consent thereto.

Section 11.7. Tenant to Pay Landlord’s
Costs. If Tenant assigns or sublets the Premises or requests the consent of Landlord to any assignment, subletting or other
modification of this Lease, or if Tenant requests the consent of Landlord for any act that Tenant proposes to do, whether or not
Landlord shall grant consent thereto, then Tenant shall, concurrent with Tenant’s submission of any written request therefor,
pay to Landlord (a) the non-refundable sum of $500.00 as reasonable consideration for Landlord’s considering and processing
the applicable request, plus (b) the amount of reasonably estimated by Landlord as its anticipated legal fees to be incurred by
Landlord in connection therewith, not to exceed $500.00 except in the event Tenant requests material modifications to Landlord’s
customary consent form documents (provided the same are commercially reasonable), in which case there shall be no limit on attorney
fees incurred as long as such fees are reasonable.

 

Section 11.8. Successors and Assigns.
Subject to the provisions contained herein, the covenants and agreements contained in this Lease shall bind and inure to the benefit
of Landlord and Tenant, their respective successors and assigns and all persons claiming by, through or under them.

 

Section 11.9. Permitted Subleases. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Lease but subject to the terms of this Section 11.9, Landlord agrees that Tenant may
enter into certain subleases with professional individuals or entities consistent with the tenancies found in Class A high rise
office buildings in the Encino area without the prior written consent of Landlord but upon ten (10) business days’ prior
written notice to Landlord (“Permitted Subleases”). Permitted Subleases when combined with all other subleases entered
into by Tenant, shall (a) cover in the aggregate no more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Usable Area of the Premises; (b)
be memorialized in a commercially reasonable form of sublease; and (c) not require the erection of demising walls or any other
structural improvements or any separate Premises entry. Tenant shall provide Landlord with true, complete and correct copies of
all fully-executed Permitted Subleases prior to the date Tenant’s proposed sublessee takes occupancy pursuant thereto. It
is expressly understood and agreed that, with respect to a Permitted Sublease satisfying the criteria set forth above inclusive,
Landlord shall not be entitled to any “Net Rental Profit” under Section 11.4, above, and Landlord shall not charge
Tenant with an administrative fee or legal costs incurred with respect to processing Landlord’s consent under Section 11.7.

 

ARTICLE 12

MAINTENANCE,
REPAIRS, DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION, RENOVATION

AND/OR ALTERATION

 

Section 12.1. Tenant’s Obligation
to Maintain. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole expense, maintain the Premises in good order and repair, and shall also keep
clean any portion of the Premises which Landlord is not obligated to clean. Pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, such maintenance
and repair obligations shall include the maintenance, clean-out; repair and/or replacement of Tenant’s garbage disposal(s),
Instant-Heat or other hot or cold water producing, conducting or dispensing equipment, if any, and any plumbing fixtures within
the Premises (including, without limitation, any dishwashers or other appliances, water dispensers, water filters, ice-makers refrigeration
devices), and the cleaning and removal of any dishes and/or food prior to the same becoming unsanitary. Tenant shall not be responsible
for the maintenance, clean-out, repair and/or replacement of any matter or thing which resides outside of the limits of the Premises
unless the same is caused by Tenant’s failure to maintain, clean-out, repair and/or replace some matter of thing which resides
within the limits of the Premises and for which Tenant is responsible hereunder. Except to the extent caused by Landlord’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct, Tenant shall be responsible for repair of any leaks or other water migration from any plumbing
fixtures located in the Premises, and shall be liable for any damage caused thereby to any Common Areas or other tenants’
premises. If Tenant becomes obligated to repair anything within the Premises, Tenant shall advise Landlord’s managing agent
of such need.

 

Further, except to
the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Tenant shall pay the cost of any injury, damage or
breakage in, upon or to the Premises created by Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners
or shareholders.

Subject to Tenant’s
obligation for reimbursement to Landlord, as specified herein, Landlord shall make all repairs to the Premises and the exterior
walls, foundation and roof of the Building, the structural portions of the floors of the Building, the systems and equipment of
the Building, the Improvements and the Additional Improvements installed in the Premises and all other portions of the Premises
and the Real Property which are required by the provisions of this Lease. However, if such repairs, maintenance or cleaning are
required due to Tenant’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant’s
agents, clients, contractors, directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders, and are not otherwise
covered by insurance required to be maintained by Landlord hereunder, then, Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) business days after
receipt of Landlord’s billing therefor, reimburse Landlord, as Additional Rent, for any expense of such repairs, cleaning
and/or maintenance in excess of any insurance proceeds available for reimbursement thereof.

 

Tenant hereby waives
all right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under the provisions of Section 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 of the Civil
Code of California.

 

Section 12.2. Repair Period Notice. Tenant
shall give prompt notice to Landlord of Tenant’s actual knowledge of any damage or destruction to all or any part of the
Premises or Building resulting from or arising out of any fire, earthquake, or other identifiable event of a sudden, unexpected
or unusual nature (individually or collectively a “Casualty”). The time periods specified in this Section 12.2
shall commence after Landlord receives said written notice from Tenant of the occurrence of a Casualty or Landlord otherwise acquires
actual knowledge of the Casualty. After receipt of Tenant’s written notice that a Casualty has occurred, or Landlord otherwise
acquires actual knowledge that a Casualty has occurred, Landlord shall, within the later of:

 

a)           sixty (60) days after the date
on which Landlord determines the full extent of the damage caused by the Casualty, or

 

b)           thirty (30) days after Landlord
has determined the extent of the insurance proceeds available to effectuate repairs, but

 

c)           in no event more than one hundred
and twenty (120) days after the Casualty,

 

provide written notice to Tenant indicating
the anticipated time period for repairing the Casualty (the “Repair Period Notice”). The Repair Period Notice
shall also state, if applicable, Landlord’s election either to repair the Premises, or to terminate this Lease, pursuant
to the provisions of Section 12.3, and if Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to provide Tenant with a minimum period of ninety (90) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Repair Period Notice within which
to fully vacate the Premises.

 

Section 12.3. Landlord’s Option to
Terminate or Repair. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall have the option, but not the
obligation to elect not to rebuild or restore the Premises and/or the Building if one or more of the following conditions is present:

 

a)           repairs to the Premises cannot
reasonably be completed within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date of the Casualty (when such repairs are made without
the payment of overtime or other premiums);

 

b)           repairs required cannot be made
pursuant to the then-existing laws or regulations affecting the Premises or Building, or the Building cannot be restored except
in a substantially different structural or architectural form than existed before the Casualty;

c)           the holder of any mortgage on
the Building or ground or underlying lessor with respect to the Real Property and/or the Building shall require that all or such
large a portion of the insurance proceeds be used to retire the mortgage debt, so that the balance of insurance proceeds remaining
available to Landlord for completion of repairs shall be insufficient to repair said damage or destruction;

 

d)           the holder of any mortgage on
the Building or ground or underlying lessor with respect to the Real Property and/or the Building shall terminate the mortgage,
ground or underlying lease, as the case may be;

 

e)           provided Landlord has carried
the coverage Landlord is required to obtain under Section 19.1 of this Lease, the damage is not fully covered, except for
deductible amounts, by Landlord’s insurance policies;

 

f)           more than thirty-three and one-third
percent (33 1/3%) of the Building is damaged or destroyed, whether or not the Premises is affected, provided that Landlord elects
to terminate all other leases for offices of a similar size in the Building.

 

If Landlord elects
not to complete repairs to the Building or Premises, pursuant to this Section 12.3, Landlord’s election to terminate
this Lease shall be stated in the Repair Period Notice, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date contained
in Landlord’s Repair Period Notice.

 

If one hundred percent
of the Building is damaged or destroyed, as certified by an independent building inspector, this Lease shall automatically terminate
after Tenant’s receipt of written notice of such termination from Landlord, and without action beyond the giving of such
notice being required by either Landlord or Tenant.

 

Upon any termination
of this Lease pursuant to this Section 12.3, Tenant shall pay its prorata share of Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent,
properly apportioned up to the date of such termination, reduced by any abatement of Rent to which Tenant is entitled under Section 12.5;
after which both Landlord and Tenant shall thereafter be freed and discharged of all further obligations under this Lease, except
for those obligations which by their provisions specifically survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. In the
event that Landlord elects to so terminate this Lease, Tenant shall be provided with a minimum of ninety (90) days within which
to vacate the Premises, subject to any public safety restrictions or requirements imposed as a result of the Casualty, either by
Landlord acting prudently and in good faith, or as may be required by applicable law.

 

Section 12.4. Tenant’s Option to Terminate.
If:

 

a)           the Repair Period Notice provided
by Landlord indicates that the anticipated period for repairing the Casualty exceeds one hundred and eighty (180) days after the
Casualty (the “Repair Period”), or

 

b)           the Casualty to the Premises occurs
during the last twelve (12) months of the Term;

 

then Tenant shall have the option, but not
the obligation, to terminate this Lease by providing written notice (“Tenant’s Termination Notice”) to Landlord
within thirty (30) days after the Casualty in the case of 12.4 (a); or within thirty (30) days after receiving the End of Term
Notice, in the case of Section 12.4 (b). Furthermore, if (i) Landlord does not complete the repairs required within the
Repair Period, and (ii) has not diligently commenced and continued to prosecute to completion repair of the damage and/or destruction
caused by the Casualty, and (iii) has not completed the repairs thereafter on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after
the expiration of the Repair Period, then Tenant shall also have the option, but not the obligation, to terminate this Lease by
giving Landlord written notice of its intention to so terminate, which notice shall be given not more than forty-five (45) days
after expiration of the Repair Period. In the event that Landlord elects to so terminate this Lease, Tenant shall be provided with
a minimum of ninety (90) days within which to vacate the Premises, subject to any public safety restrictions or requirements imposed
as a result of the Casualty, either by Landlord acting prudently and in good faith, or as may be required by applicable law.

Tenant’s failure
to provide Landlord with Tenant’s Termination Notice within the time periods specified hereinabove shall be deemed conclusive
evidence that Tenant has waived its option to terminate this Lease.

 

Section 12.5. Temporary Space and/or Rent
Abatement During Repairs or Renovation. During the Repair Period or during any such period that Landlord completes Work (as
defined hereinbelow) or Renovations (as defined in Section 12.11 hereinbelow), if available, and if requested by Tenant, Landlord
shall make available to Tenant other space in the Building which, in Tenant’s reasonable opinion, is suitable for the temporary
conduct of Tenant’s business. However, if such temporary space is smaller than the Premises, Tenant shall pay Fixed Monthly
Rent and Additional Rent for the temporary space based upon the calculated rate per rentable square foot payable hereunder for
the Premises, times the number of rentable square feet available for Tenant’s use in the temporary space. If the Casualty
is a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or a Landlord Party, then Landlord shall pay for any and
all of Tenant’s reasonable expenses incurred in moving into the temporary space.

 

If no temporary space
is available that is reasonably satisfactory to Tenant, and any part of the Premises is rendered untenantable by reason of such
Casualty, Work or Renovation; and further provided that the Casualty was not the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of any Tenant Party, then to the extent that all or said portion of the usable area of the Premises is so rendered untenantable
by reason of such Casualty, Work or Renovation, Tenant shall be provided with a proportionate abatement of Fixed Monthly Rent and
Additional Rent. Said proportional abatement shall be based on the Usable Area of the Premises that cannot and is not actually
used by Tenant, divided by the total Usable Area of the Premises. That proportional abatement, if any, shall be provided during
the period beginning on the later of:

 

a)           the date of the Casualty; or

 

b)           the actual date on which Tenant
ceases to conduct Tenant’s normal business operations in all or any portion of the Premises,

 

and shall end on the date Landlord achieves
substantial completion of restoration of the Premises. Tenant’s acceptance of said abatement of Rent shall be deemed Tenant’s
waiver of any further claim or right of future claim for any loss or damage asserted by Tenant arising out of the Casualty Repair,
Work or Renovation, as the case may be.

 

Section 12.6. Tenant’s Waiver of Consequential
Damages. Subject to Section 12.4, the provisions contained in Section 12.5 are Tenant’s sole remedy arising
out of any Casualty. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or any other person or entity for any direct, indirect, or consequential
damages (including but not limited to lost profits of Tenant or loss of or interference with Tenant’s business), due to,
arising out of, or as a result of the Casualty.

 

In no event shall any
Landlord Party be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors,
employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders, or for injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way
from such Casualty, or from Landlord’s undertaking of repairs as a result of such Casualty.

 

Section 12.7. Repair of the Premises. If
the cost of repair of any Casualty is covered under one or more of the insurance policies Landlord is required herein to provide,
then, Landlord shall restore the base core and shell of the Premises to its condition prior to the Casualty and repair and/or replace
the improvements previously installed in the Premises.

If Landlord has elected
to complete repairs to the Premises, and has not elected to terminate this Lease, as specified in Section 12.3, then Landlord shall
diligently complete such repairs within the Repair Period in a manner so as to minimize unreasonable interference with Tenant’s
access to or use or occupancy of that portion of the Premises remaining unaffected by the Casualty. Provided Landlord has elected
to make the repairs required hereunder, this Lease shall not be void or voidable during the Repair Period, nor shall Landlord be
deemed to have constructively evicted Tenant thereby.

 

Section 12.8. Waiver. Tenant hereby
waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) and the provisions of any successor or other law
of like import.

 

Section 12.9. Repair of the Building. Except
as specified hereinabove, unless Landlord terminates this Lease as permitted hereinabove, Landlord shall repair the Building, parking
structure or other supporting structures and facilities within two hundred and seventy (270) days after Landlord becomes aware
of the damage and/or destruction.

 

Section 12.10. Government-Required Repairs.
If, during the Term, standard annual or biannual inspections or any other inspections to which the Building may generally be
subject are conducted by any governmental authority (collectively, the “Inspections”) or any testing, repairs and/or
reconstruction are required by any governmental authority (collectively, together with the Inspections, the “Work”),
or if, upon the recommendation of its engineers, Landlord independently elects to undertake all or any portion of the Work prior
to being required to do so by such governmental authority, Landlord shall give notice thereof to Tenant and shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts not to unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s access to or use or occupancy of the Premises while completing
the Work. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease (including, without limitation, the provisions of Article 8), Tenant
expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) Landlord shall have the right to shut down the electrical current and other services
to Building and/or the Premises in connection with the Inspections, and (ii) Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement of Rent
(or any other damages of any kind whatsoever) in connection therewith. Tenant shall cooperate fully with Landlord in connection
with the Work and, upon the prior written request of Landlord, shall make the Premises available for completion of the Work. Tenant
agrees that Landlord shall allocate all costs associated with completion of the Work to the Building’s Operating Expenses,
when permitted to under the provisions of Section 4.1 of this Lease.

 

If Landlord elects
to undertake the Work during the Term, (other than the Inspections), then, subject to and in accordance with Section 12.5 hereinabove,
Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent, and Landlord shall be completely responsible for repair of any damage to the
Premises and all costs associated with the removal, moving and/or storage of Tenant’s furniture, artwork, office equipment
and files. Landlord will restore any and all areas damaged by completion of the Work to their previous quality and pay all clean-up
costs. Landlord further agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to see that all construction, such as core drilling
shall, insofar as is reasonably possible, be performed between the hours of 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Monday through Friday; after
1:00 p.m. on Saturdays and/or at any time on Sundays.

 

Subject to the express
provisions of Section 8.9 in the event of an Abatement Event, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease as a result
of Landlord undertaking the Work, nor shall Tenant or any third party claiming under Tenant be entitled to make any claim against
Landlord for any interruption, interference or disruption of Tenant’s business or loss of profits therefrom as a result of
the Work, and Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any claim which Tenant may have against Landlord arising from or relating to,
directly or indirectly, the performance of the Work by Landlord.

 

Section 12.11. Optional Landlord Renovation.
It is specifically understood and agreed that Landlord has no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, renovate or decorate the
Premises, Building, or Real Property, or any part thereof and that, except as expressly set forth in this Lease, Landlord has made
no representations and/or warranties to Tenant respecting the condition of the Premises, the Building, or the Real Property including,
without limitation, any representation or warranty regarding any upgrades or other improvements to any Common Areas of the Building
or Real Property.

However, at any time
and from time to time during the Term, Landlord may elect, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to otherwise renovate, improve,
alter or modify elements of the Real Property, the Building and/or the Premises in keeping with a first-class office project in
the Encino area (collectively, “Renovations”) including without limitation, the parking facilities, Common Areas, systems,
equipment, roof, and structural portions of the same, which Renovations may include, without limitation:

 

a)           modifying the Common Areas and
tenant spaces to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including regulations relating to the physically disabled, seismic
conditions and building safety and security, and

 

b)           installing new carpeting, lighting
and wall covering in the Building Common Areas.

 

In connection with
such Renovations, Landlord may, among other things, erect scaffolding or other necessary structures in or about the Building, limit
or eliminate access to portions of the Building, Common Areas or parking facilities serving the Building, or perform other work
in or about the Building, or the Real Property, which work may create noise, dust or debris that remains in the Building or the
Real Property.

 

Upon reasonable prior
notice to Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to access through the Premises as well as the right to take into and upon and through
all or any part of the Premises, or any other part of the Building, all materials that may reasonably be required to make such
repairs, alterations, decorating, additions or improvements pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.11, provided that
no such access or use shall unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s business or Tenant’s use or occupancy of, or access
to, the Premises, the Building and the parking facilities. So long as Tenant continues to have reasonable access to the Premises,
the Building and the parking facilities in a manner and quality customary for first-class office buildings in the Encino area,
Landlord shall also have the right, in the course of the Renovations, to close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators, or other
building facilities, or temporarily to abate the operation of such facilities.

 

So long as Tenant is
not required to vacate the Premises for any reason arising out of the Renovations, and continues to have reasonable access to the
Premises, the Building and the parking facilities in a manner and
quality customary for first-class office buildings in the Encino area, Tenant shall permit all of the Renovations to be done, without
claiming Landlord is guilty of the constructive eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession.

 

Landlord shall not
be liable to Tenant in any manner (except as expressly provided in the event of an Abatement Event set forth in Section 8.9 and
otherwise in this Lease), whether for abatement of any Rent or other charge, reimbursement of any expense, injury, loss or damage
to Tenant’s property, business, or any person claiming by or under Tenant, by reason of interference with the business of
Tenant or inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or the customers of Tenant resulting from any Renovations done in or about the Premises
or the Building or to any adjacent or nearby building, land, street or alley, except as set forth in this Lease. However, Landlord
agrees that the Renovations shall be scheduled insofar as is commercially reasonable to permit Tenant to continue its normal business
operations, with advance notice thereof, and in such commercially reasonable manner so as to minimize Tenant’s inconvenience
and that Landlord shall be responsible to repair any damage to the Premises occasioned thereby.

Section 12.12. Optional Tenant Changes During
the Term. After completion of the Improvements contemplated hereunder, if any, Tenant shall make no alteration, change, addition,
removal, demolition, improvement, repair or replacement in, on, upon, to or about the Premises, or at any time to any portion of
the Building (collectively or individually a “Tenant Change”), without the prior written consent of Landlord, which
consent shall be granted or withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have
the right, without Landlord’s consent but upon ten (10) business days prior notice to Landlord and in compliance with Exhibit
B-1, to make strictly cosmetic, non-structural alterations (such as new paint and carpet and minor changes to millwork) (“Cosmetic
Alterations”) to the Premises that: (i) are equal to or better than the minimum Building standards and specifications to
the Premises; and do not (ii) affect the exterior appearance of the Building; (iii) affect the Building systems and/or the Building
structure; or (iv) interfere unreasonably with another occupant’s normal and customary business. Except as otherwise specified
in Article 7, any Tenant Change shall, at the termination of this Lease, become a part of the Building and belong to Landlord,
pursuant to the provisions of Article 7. Any application for Landlord’s consent to a Tenant Change, and the completion thereof,
shall be in conformance with the provisions of Exhibit B-1, attached hereto and made a part hereof by reference.

 

Tenant shall not knowingly
permit Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders
to deface the walls, floors and/or ceilings of the Premises, nor mark, drive nails, screws or drill holes into, paint, or in any
way mar any surface in the Building. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant is hereby permitted to install such pictures, certificates,
licenses, artwork, bulletin boards and similar items as are normally used in Tenant’s business, so long as such installation
is carefully attached to the walls by Tenant in a manner reasonably prescribed by Landlord.

 

If Tenant desires, as a
part of any Tenant Change, to make any revisions whatsoever to the electrical, HVAC, mechanical, life-safety, plumbing, or structural
systems of the Building or Premises, such revisions, if approved by Landlord, must be completed by subcontractors specified by
Landlord and in the manner and location(s) reasonably prescribed by Landlord. If Tenant desires to install any telephone outlets,
the same shall be installed in the manner and location(s) reasonably prescribed by Landlord.

 

If Landlord consents to
any requested Tenant Change, Tenant shall give Landlord a minimum of fifteen (15) business days’ written notice prior to
commencement thereof. Landlord reserves the option, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Premises for the purpose of posting
and maintaining such notices on the Premises as may be reasonably necessary to protect Landlord against mechanic's liens, material
man’s liens or other liens, and/or for posting any other notices that may be proper and necessary in connection with Tenant’s
completion of the Tenant Change.

 

If any alterations, additions
or improvements made by Tenant result in Landlord being required to make any alterations to other portions of the Building in order
to comply with any applicable statutes, ordinances or regulations (e.g., “handicap ordinances”) then Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in making such alterations. In addition, Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord (up to a maximum of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) for any and all of Landlord’s out of pocket
costs incurred in reviewing Tenant’s plans for any Tenant Change or for any other “peer review” work associated
with Landlord’s review of Tenant’s plans for any Tenant Change, including, without limitation, Landlord’s reasonable
out of pocket costs incurred in engaging any third party engineers, contractors, consultants or design specialists. Tenant shall
pay such costs to Landlord within five (5) business days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a copy of the invoice(s)
for such work.

 

Section 12.13. Express Agreement. The
provisions of this Lease, including those contained in this Article 12, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and
Tenant that applies in the event of any Casualty to the Premises, Building or Real Property. Tenant, therefore, fully waives the
provisions of any statute or regulations, including California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4), and any other law
or statute which purports to govern the rights or obligations of Landlord and Tenant concerning a Casualty in the absence of express
agreement. Tenant and Landlord expressly agree and accept that any successor or other law of like import shall have no application
hereunder.

ARTICLE 13

CONDEMNATION

 

Section 13.1. Condemnation of the Premises.
If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises is lawfully condemned or taken in any manner for any public or quasi-public
use, or if any portion of the Building is condemned or taken in such a manner that Tenant is reasonably prevented from obtaining
access to the Building or the Premises, this Lease may, within ten (10) business days of such taking, be terminated at the option
of either Landlord or Tenant by one party giving the other thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of its intent to do so.
If either Landlord or Tenant provides the other party with such written notice of termination, the Term and estate hereby granted
shall forthwith cease and terminate as of the earlier of the date of vesting of title in such condemnation or taking or the date
of taking of possession by the condemning authority. In such instance, Tenant shall be provided with a minimum of ninety (90) days
following either party’s receipt of such notice from the other party within which to vacate the Premises, subject to any
public safety restrictions or requirements imposed by the condemning authority.

 

If less than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the Premises is so condemned or taken, then the term and estate hereby granted with respect to such part shall
forthwith cease and terminate as of the earlier of the date of vesting of title in such condemnation or taking or the date of taking
of possession by the condemning authority, and the Fixed Monthly Rent payable hereunder (and Additional Rent payable pursuant to
Articles 3 or 4) shall be abated on a prorated basis, by dividing the total number of usable square feet so taken
by the total number of usable square feet contained in the Premises, then multiplying said percentage on a monthly basis, continuing
from the date of such vesting of title to the date specified in this Lease for the expiration of the Term hereof;
provided, however, that if Tenant cannot conduct its normal business operations from the remaining portion of the Premises,
Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon notice to Landlord, and in the event that Tenant elects to so terminate
the Lease, Tenant shall be provided with a minimum of ninety (90) days following Landlord’s receipt of such notice from Tenant
within which to vacate the Premises, subject to any public safety restrictions or requirements imposed by the condemning authority..

 

Section 13.2. Condemnation of the Building.
If less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Building is so condemned or taken, and Tenant has not terminated the Lease in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 13, then Landlord shall, to the extent of the proceeds of the condemnation payable
to Landlord and with reasonable diligence, restore the remaining portion of the Building as nearly as practicable to its condition
prior to such condemnation or taking; except that, if such proceeds constitute less than ninety percent (90%) of Landlord’s
estimate of the cost of rebuilding or restoration, then Landlord may terminate this Lease after giving a minimum of ninety (90)
days’ prior written notice to Tenant.

 

If more than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the Building is so condemned or taken, but the Premises are unaffected thereby, then Landlord shall have the option
but not the obligation, which election shall be in Landlord’s sole discretion, to terminate this Lease, effective the earlier
of the date of vesting of title in such condemnation or the date Landlord delivers actual possession of the Building and Premises
to the condemning authority, which election by Landlord shall be provided to Tenant in writing.

Section 13.3. Award. If any condemnation
or taking of all or a part of the Building takes place, Tenant shall be entitled to join in any action claiming compensation therefore,
and Landlord shall be entitled to receive that portion of the award made for the value of the Building, Premises, leasehold improvements
made or reimbursed by Landlord, or bonus value of this Lease, and Tenant shall only be entitled to receive any award made for the
value of the estate vested by this Lease in Tenant, including Tenant’s proximate damages to Tenant’s business, reasonable
relocation expenses and any other damages to which Tenant may be entitled under applicable law. Nothing shall preclude Tenant from
intervening in any such condemnation proceeding to claim or receive from the condemning authority any compensation to which Tenant
may otherwise lawfully be entitled in such case in respect of Tenant’s property or for moving to a new location.

 

Section 13.4. Condemnation for a Limited
Period. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 13.1, 13.2 or 13.3, except during the final twelve (12) months of the
Term, if all or any portion of the Premises are condemned or taken for governmental occupancy for a limited period (i.e., anticipated
to be no longer than sixty (60) days), then this Lease shall not terminate; there shall be no abatement of Fixed Monthly Rent or
Additional Rent payable hereunder; and Tenant shall be entitled to receive the entire award therefor (whether paid as damages,
rent or otherwise).

 

If, during the final twelve
(12) months of the Term, all or any portion of the Premises are condemned or taken for governmental occupancy for a limited period
anticipated to be in excess of sixty (60) days, or for a period extended after the expiration of the initial Term, Tenant shall
have the option, but not the obligation, to terminate this Lease, in which case, Landlord shall be entitled to such part of such
award as shall be properly allocable to the cost of restoration of the Premises, and the balance of such award shall be apportioned
between Landlord and Tenant as of the date of such termination. In the event Tenant elects to terminate this Lease under this paragraph,
then Tenant shall have ninety (90) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice that it has elected to terminate
this Lease within which to vacate the Premises.

 

If the termination of such
governmental occupancy is prior to expiration of this Lease, and Tenant has not elected to terminate this Lease, Tenant shall,
upon receipt thereof and to the extent an award has been made, restore the Premises as nearly as possible to the condition in which
they were prior to the condemnation or taking.

 

Section 13.5.
Notice of Condemnation. Upon learning that all or any portion of the Premises, the Building
and/or the Common Area may be condemned or taken in any manner for any public or quasi-public use, Landlord shall provide Tenant
with notice thereof.

 

ARTICLE 14

MORTGAGE SUBORDINATION;
ATTORNMENT AND MODIFICATION OF LEASE

 

Section 14.1. Subordination. This Lease,
the Term and estate hereby granted, are and shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of each mortgage which may now or at any
time hereafter affect Landlord’s interest in the real property, Building, parking facilities, Common Areas or portions thereof
and/or the land thereunder (an “underlying mortgage”), regardless of the interest rate, the terms of repayment, the
use of the proceeds or any other provision of any such mortgage. Tenant shall from time to time execute and deliver such instruments
as Landlord or the holder of any such mortgage may reasonably request to confirm the subordination provided in this Section 14.1.
Within sixty (60) days after Landlord’s execution of this Lease, Landlord shall obtain and deliver to Tenant an executed
non-disturbance agreement from Bank of America, NA (as Administrative Agent), which is the beneficiary of the sole deed of trust
encumbering the Real Property as of the date of this Lease (the “Lender”) on Lender’s standard form, with such
reasonable modifications to such form as may be negotiated by Tenant and the Lender (the “SNDA”), it being expressly
understood and agreed that Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant in the event the Lender elects not to make any changes to
its form of SNDA. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s billing,
the reasonable out-of-pocket attorney’s fees and costs incurred by Lender in connection with negotiating the SNDA and any
administrative fees and costs.   Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement(s)
in favor of Tenant form any ground lessors or mortgage holders of Landlord who come into existence following the date hereof but
prior to the expiration of the Term shall be in consideration of, and a condition precedent to, Tenant’s agreement to be
bound by the terms and conditions of this Article 14.

Section 14.2. Attornment. Tenant confirms
that if by reason of a default under an underlying mortgage the interest of Landlord in the Premises is terminated, provided Tenant
is granted in writing continued quiet enjoyment of the Premises pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall
attorn to the holder of the reversionary interest in the Premises and shall recognize such holder as Tenant’s landlord under
this Lease, but in no event shall such holder be bound by any payment of Rent paid more than one month in advance of the date due
under this Lease. Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) business days after its receipt of a written request therefor, execute and
deliver, at any time and from time to time, upon the request of Landlord or of the holder of an underlying mortgage any instrument
which may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment.

 

Section 14.3. Modification of Lease; Notice
of Default. If any current or prospective mortgagee or ground lessor for the Building requires a modification or modifications
of this Lease, which modification or modifications will not cause an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way adversely
change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then in such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified. Tenant
agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord within fifteen (15) business days following its receipt of a written request therefor
whatever commercially reasonable documents are required to effectuate said modification. Should Landlord or any such current or
prospective mortgagee or ground lessor require execution of a short form of Lease for recording, containing, among other customary
provisions, the names of the parties, a description of the Premises and the Term, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord
such short form of Lease within fifteen (15) business days following its receipt of a written request therefor. Further, Tenant
shall give written notice of any default by Landlord under this Lease to any mortgagee and ground lessor of the Building of which
Tenant has been notified in writing by Landlord and shall afford such mortgagee and ground lessor a reasonable opportunity to cure
such default prior to exercising any remedy under this Lease, which cure period shall equal the cure period granted to Landlord
under the Lease.

 

ARTICLE 15

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

 

Section 15.1. Estoppel Certificates. Tenant
shall, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of Landlord’s written request therefor, execute, acknowledge and deliver
to Landlord an Estoppel Certificate, which may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser, mortgagee or beneficiary
under any deed of trust covering the Building or any part thereof. Said Estoppel Certificate shall certify the following:

 

a)           that this Lease is unmodified
and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and
stating the date and nature of each modification);

 

b)           the date, if any, to which rental
and other sums payable hereunder have been paid;

 

c)           that no notice has been received
by Tenant of any default which has not been cured, except as to defaults specified in the certificate;

 

d)           that Landlord is not in default
under this Lease or, if so, specifying such default; and

 

e)           such other factual matters as
may be reasonably requested by Landlord.

Tenant’s failure
to deliver the Estoppel Certificate within five (5) business days following receipt of the Landlord’s second (2nd) written
request therefor shall entitle Landlord and any party relying on such certificate to conclusively presume that the facts contained
in such certificate are true and correct.

 

ARTICLE 16

NOTICES

 

Section 16.1. Notices. Any notice, consent,
approval, agreement, certification, request, bill, demand, statement, acceptance or other communication hereunder (a “notice”)
shall be in writing and shall be considered duly given or furnished when delivered personally or by messenger or overnight delivery
service, with signature evidencing such delivery

 

to the addresses specified for Landlord and
Tenant set forth in the Basic Lease Information; or to such other address or addressee as either party may designate by a written
notice given pursuant hereto.

 

If Tenant fails to provide
another valid address, other than the Premises, upon which service to Tenant can be perfected, then Tenant hereby appoints as its
agent to receive the service of all dispossessory or distraint proceedings and notices thereunder the person in charge of or occupying
the Premises at the time, and if no person shall be in charge of or occupy the same, then such service may be made by attaching
the same to the main entrance of the Premises.

 

ARTICLE 17

DEFAULT AND
LANDLORD’S OPTION TO CURE

 

Section 17.1. Tenant’s Default. For
the purposes of this Section 17.1, if the term “Tenant”, as used in this Lease, refers to more than one person, then,
such term shall be deemed to include all of such persons or any one of them; if any of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease
are guaranteed, the term “Tenant”, as used in Section 17.1(e) and Section 17.1(f), shall be deemed to also
include the guarantor or, if there is more than one guarantor, all or any one of them; and if this Lease has been assigned, the
term “Tenant”, as used in Sections 17.1 (a) through (h), inclusive, shall be deemed to include the assignee and
assignor, jointly and severally, unless Landlord shall have, in connection with such assignment, previously released the assignor
from any further liability under this Lease, in which event the term “Tenant”, as used in said subparagraphs, shall
not include the assignor that was previously released.

 

Tenant’s continued

of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent within three (3) business days following Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord

b)           if Tenant abandons or vacates
the Premises for a period in excess of fifteen (15) business days and concurrently discontinues the payment of Rent; or

and is not cured by Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord specifying the same, or,
in the case of such a default which for causes beyond Tenant’s reasonable control (including occupancy of a sublessee) cannot
with due diligence be cured within such period of thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of notice from Landlord specifying

Section 17.2. Landlord’s Option to
Cure Tenant’s Default. If Tenant enters into a default under this Lease, and such default continues past any applicable
notice and cure period, in lieu of Landlord’s issuance of a written notice, as specified hereinbelow, Landlord may cure the
same at the sole expense of Tenant:

 

a)           immediately and without notice
in the case of emergency; if said default is specified in Sections 17.1 (a), (b) or (c), or if such default unreasonably
interferes with the use by any other tenant of the Building; with the efficient operation of the Building; or will result in a
violation of law or in a cancellation of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord, and

 

b)           after the expiration of Landlord’s
3-Day Notice of Intent to Cure, in the case of any default other than those specified in Section 17.2 (a) hereinabove.

 

Within fifteen (15) business
days after receiving a statement from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of the expense reasonably incurred by Landlord
in performing Tenant’s obligation. If Tenant fails to pay such amount to Landlord within the specified time period, Landlord
may (in addition to any other remedies of Landlord under this Lease or applicable law) deduct the amount due from the Security
Deposit under Section 3.7.

 

Section 17.3. Landlord’s Option to
Terminate this Lease. In addition to any other remedies Landlord may have at law or in equity, if Tenant remains in default
after notice and the lapse of any applicable cure period, Landlord shall be entitled to give to Tenant a written notice of intention
to terminate this Lease at the expiration of three (3) business days from the date of the giving of such notice, and if such notice
is given by Landlord, and Tenant fails to cure the defaults specified therein, then this Lease and the Term and estate hereby granted
(whether or not the Commencement Date has already occurred) shall terminate upon the expiration of such three (3) business day
period (a “Default Termination”), with the same effect as if the last of such three (3) business days were the Termination
Date, except that Tenant shall remain liable for damages as provided hereinbelow or pursuant to law.

 

Section 17.4. Certain Payments. Bills
for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any performance by it under Section 17.2 shall
be payable, as Additional Rent, pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3.

 

Section 17.5. Certain Waivers. Unless
Tenant has submitted documentation that it validly disputes Landlord’s billing for Fixed Monthly Rent hereunder, or is completing
an audit of Landlord’s Operating Expense Statement, if Tenant is in default in payment of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional
Rent hereunder, Tenant waives the right to designate the items against which any payments made by Tenant are to be credited. In
lieu thereof, Landlord may apply any payments received from Tenant to the then-oldest billing remaining unpaid on Tenant’s
rental account or to any other payment due from Tenant, as Landlord sees fit.

 

Section 17.6. Landlord Default. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required
to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease unless:

 

a)           in the event such default is with
respect to the payment of money, Landlord fails to pay such unpaid amounts within five (5) business days of written notice from
Tenant that the same was not paid when due, or

 

b)           in the event such default is other
than the obligation to pay money, Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice
from Tenant specifying in detail Landlord’s failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord’s obligation
is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease
if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) days period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion
within a reasonable time period.

Notwithstanding the provisions
of subsection (b), in the event such default results in the material impairment of Tenant’s access to and use of the Premises
or results in an emergency situation, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly remedy such default.

 

Upon any such default by
Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of
its rights provided at law or in equity.

 

ARTICLE 18

DAMAGES; REMEDIES;
RE-ENTRY BY LANDLORD; ETC.

 

Section 18.1. Damages. If Landlord terminates
this Lease, pursuant to the provisions of Section 17.3 (a “Default Termination”), then Landlord may recover from Tenant
the total of:

 

a)           the worth at the time of award
of the unpaid Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent earned to the date of such Default Termination; and

 

b)           the worth at the time of award
of the amount by which the unpaid Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent which would have been earned after the date of such Default
Termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided;
and

 

c)           the worth at the time of award
of the amount by which the unpaid Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent which would have been earned for the balance of the Term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; and

 

d)           any other amount reasonably necessary
to compensate Landlord for all of the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to observe or perform any of its covenants
and agreements under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of events would be likely to result therefrom, including, without
limitation, the payment of the reasonable expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in re-entering and securing possession of the Premises
and in the reletting thereof (including, without limitation, altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants and brokers' commission);
and

 

e)           at Landlord’s sole election,
such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time under applicable California
laws.

 

Section 18.2. Computations: The “worth
at the time of award” is computed:

 

a)           in paragraphs (a) and (b) above,
by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (but in no event in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law);
and

 

b)           in paragraph (c) above, by discounting
such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).

 

c)           For purposes of computing unpaid
rental which would have accrued and become payable under this Lease, unpaid rental shall consist of the sum of:

 

i)           the total
Fixed Monthly Rent for the balance of the Term, plus

 

ii)          a computation
of Tenant’s Share of Additional Rent due under this Lease including, without limitation, Tenant’s Share of any increase
in Operating Expenses (including real estate taxes) for the balance of the Term. For purposes of computing any increases due Landlord
hereunder, Additional Rent for the calendar year of the default and for each future calendar year in the Term shall be assumed
to be equal to the Additional Rent for the calendar year prior to the year in which default occurs, compounded at a rate equal
to the mean average rate of inflation for the preceding five (5) calendar years as determined by the United States Department of
Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (All Urban Consumers, all items, 1982-84 equals 100) for the metropolitan
area or region of which Los Angeles, California is a part. If such index is discontinued or revised, the average rate of inflation
shall be determined by reference to the index designated as the successor or substitute index by the government of the United States.

Section 18.3. Re-Entry by Landlord.

 

a)           If a Default Termination occurs
or any default specified in Sections 17.1 (a) through (g) occurs and continues beyond the period of grace (if any) therefor,
Landlord or Landlord’s authorized representatives may re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and all property therefrom,
either by summary dispossession proceedings or by any suitable action or proceeding at law, without being liable to indictment,
prosecution or damages therefor, and may repossess and enjoy the Premises. No re-entry or repossession of the Premises by Landlord
or its representatives under this Section 18.3 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a notice of
such election is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. The words “re-enter”,
“re-entry” and “re-entering” as used herein are not restricted to their technical legal meanings.

 

b)           If any default specified in Sections
17.1 (a) through (g) occurs and continues beyond the period of grace (if any) therefor, then if Landlord does not
elect to terminate this Lease Landlord may, from time to time and without terminating this Lease, enforce all its rights and remedies
under this Lease, including the right to recover the Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent as the same becomes payable by Tenant
hereunder.

 

i)           If Landlord
consents thereto, Tenant may sublet the Premises or any part thereof (which consent Landlord agrees will not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), subject to Tenant’s compliance with the requirements of Article 11 of this Lease. So long as
Landlord is exercising this remedy it will not terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises, but it may engage
in the acts permitted by Section 1951.4(c) of the California Civil Code.

 

c)           If Tenant abandons the Premises
in breach of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to relet the Premises or any part thereof on such terms and conditions and
at such rentals as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs in and to
the Premises necessary to reletting. If Landlord so elects to relet, then gross rentals received by Landlord from the reletting
shall be applied:

 

i)           first, to
the payment of the reasonable expenses incurred or paid by Landlord in re-entering and securing possession of the Premises and
in the reletting thereof (including, without limitation, altering and preparing the Premises for new tenants and brokers' commissions);

 

ii)         second, to
the payment of the Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant hereunder; and

 

iii)        third, the
remainder, if any, to be retained by Landlord and applied to the payment of future Fixed Monthly Rent and Additional Rent as the
same become due.

 

Should the gross rentals
received by Landlord from the reletting be insufficient to pay in full the sums stated in Section 18.3 (a) and (b) hereinabove,
Tenant shall, upon demand, pay the deficiency to Landlord.

 

Section 18.4. Certain Waivers. After
Landlord has actually obtained possession of the Premises pursuant to any lawful order of possession granted in a valid court of
law, Tenant thereafter waives and surrenders for Tenant, and for all claiming under Tenant, all rights and privileges now or hereafter
existing to redeem the Premises (whether by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ); to assert Tenant’s
continued right to occupancy of the Premises; or to have a continuance of this Lease for the Term hereof. Tenant also waives the
provisions of any law relating to notice and/or delay in levy of execution in case of an eviction or dispossession for nonpayment
of rent, and of any successor or other law of like import.

Section 18.5. Cumulative Remedies. The
remedies of Landlord provided for in this Lease are cumulative and are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies to which
Landlord may be lawfully entitled. The exercise by Landlord of any remedy to which it is entitled shall not preclude or hinder
the exercise of any other such remedy.

to the prior approval of Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) as to form, substance

e)           Landlord shall be named as an
additional insured on the Tenant’s policies of General Liability and Umbrella Liability insurance and as a loss payee on
the Tenant’s policies of All Risk insurance as their interest may appear. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the appropriate
endorsements evidencing additional insured and loss payee status. Any claim for loss under said insurance policies shall be payable
by the insurance carriers notwithstanding any act, omission, negligence, representation, misrepresentation or other conduct or
misconduct of Tenant which might otherwise cause cancellation, forfeiture or reduction of such insurance.

 

f)           The insurance requirements in
this Section shall not in any way limit, in either scope or amount, the indemnity obligations separately owed by Tenant to Landlord
or by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease.

 

g)           Nothing herein shall in any manner
limit the liability of Tenant for non-performance of its obligations or for loss or damage for which Tenant is responsible. The
aforementioned minimum limits of policies shall in no event limit the liability of Tenant hereunder.

 

h)           Tenant may, at its option, satisfy
its insurance obligations hereunder by policies of so-called blanket insurance carried by Tenant provided that the same shall,
in all respects, comply with the provisions hereof. In such event, Tenant shall not be deemed to have complied with its obligations
hereunder until Tenant shall have obtained and delivered to Landlord a copy of each such policy together with an appropriate endorsement
or certificate applicable to and evidencing full compliance with the specific requirements of this Lease (irrespective of any claim
which may be made with respect to any other property or liability covered under such policy), and until the same shall have been
approved by Landlord in writing.

 

Section 19.3. Compliance with Building Insurance
Requirements. After Tenant takes occupancy of the Premises, Tenant shall not violate or permit in, on or upon the Premises
the violation of any condition imposed by such standard fire insurance policies as are normally issued for office buildings in
the City or County in which the Building is located. Tenant shall not do, suffer or permit anything to be done, or keep, suffer
or permit anything to be kept, in the Premises which would increase the risk ratings or premium calculation factors on the Building
or property therein (collectively an “Increased Risk”), or which would result in insurance companies of good standing
refusing to insure the Building or any property appurtenant thereto in such amounts and against such risks as Landlord may reasonably
determine from time to time are appropriate.

 

Notwithstanding the above,
if additional insurance is available to cover such Increased Risk, Tenant shall not be in default hereunder if:

 

a)           Tenant authorizes Landlord in
writing to obtain such additional insurance; and

 

b)           prepays the annual cost thereof
to Landlord for such additional coverage, as well as the additional costs, if any, of any increase in Landlord’s other insurance
premiums resulting from the existence or continuance of such Increased Risk.

 

Section 19.4. Mutual Waiver of Subrogation.
Landlord and Tenant agree to have their respective insurance companies issuing property damage insurance waive any rights of
subrogation that such companies may have against Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be. Anything in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and release each other of and from any and all rights of recovery, claims, actions
or causes of actions against each other, their respective agents, officers and employees, for any loss or damage that may occur
to the Premises, Building or Project, or personal property within the Building, regardless of cause or origin, including the negligence
of Landlord and Tenant and their respective agents, officers, employees and contractors. Each party agrees to give immediately
to its respective insurance company which has issued policies of insurance covering any risk of direct physical loss, written notice
of the terms of the mutual waivers contained in this Section 19.4, and to have such insurance policies properly endorsed, if necessary,
to prevent the invalidation of said insurance coverage by reason of said waivers. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to provide
the insurance policy or policies required hereinabove, the waiver of subrogation contained in this Section 19.4 shall no longer
inure to the benefit of the party failing to provide such insurance, and the party claiming against such uninsured party shall
be entitled to restitution of all damages and expenses suffered and/or claimed, without limitation.

Section 19.5. Failure to Secure. If
at any time during the Term, and after expiration of ten (10) business days’ prior written demand therefore from Landlord,
Tenant fails to:

 

a)           provide Landlord with access to
a registered insurance broker of record that can verify Tenant’s compliance with the requirement contained in this Article 19;
or

 

b)           provide documentation reasonably
acceptable to Landlord that Tenant has secured and maintained the insurance coverage required hereunder,

 

then such failure shall be considered a material
default under this Lease, and Landlord shall have the option, but not the obligation, without further notice or demand to obtain
such insurance on behalf of or as the agent of Tenant and in Tenant’s name.

 

Tenant shall pay Landlord’s
billing for the premiums associated with such insurance policy or policies within five (5) business days after receipt of Landlord’s
billing, as well as such other reasonable costs and fees arising out of such default, together with interest on the entire amount
so advanced by Landlord, at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, computed from the date of such advance. Such advances, if
made by Landlord, shall be construed as and considered Additional Rent under this Lease.

and effect. No waiver or modification by either Landlord or Tenant of any covenant or agreement contained in this Lease shall be
deemed to have been made unless the same is in writing executed by the party whose rights are being waived or modified. No surrender
of possession of any part of the Premises shall release Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder unless accepted in writing
by Landlord. The receipt and retention by Landlord, and the payment by Tenant, of Fixed Monthly Rent or Additional Rent with knowledge
of the breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach by either Landlord
or Tenant. The terms of this Lease may not be modified or
amended except by an instrument in writing executed by both Landlord and Tenant.

 

Section 20.3. Time of the Essence. Time

Section 20.4. Force Majeure. For the
purposes of this Lease, “Force Majeure” shall be defined as any or all prevention, delays or stoppages and/or the inability
to obtain services, labor, materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, when such prevention, delay, stoppage or failure is due
to strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, terrorist acts, acts of God, governmental actions, civil commotion, fire or other casualty,
and/or other causes beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform, except that Force Majeure may not be raised
as a defense for (a) Tenant’s non-performance of any obligations imposed by this Lease with regard to the payment of Fixed
Monthly Rent and/or Additional Rent, or (b) any failure to secure, or any delay in the issuance of, any permits, inspections or
approvals from any governmental authority, such as, by way of example only, construction or use permits.

 

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Lease, Force Majeure shall excuse the performance of such party for a period equal to any such
prevention, delay, stoppage or inability. Therefore, if this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an obligation by
either party, that time period shall be extended by the period of any delay in such party’s performance caused by a Force
Majeure.

 

Section 20.5. Broker. Landlord and Tenant
represent to one another that each has dealt with no broker or agent in connection with this Lease or its negotiations other than
Douglas Emmett Management, Inc. and Colliers International. Landlord and Tenant shall hold one another harmless from and against
any and all liability, loss, damage, expense, claim, action, demand, suit or obligation arising out of or relating to a breach
by the indemnifying party of such representation. Landlord agrees to pay all commissions due to the brokers listed above created
by Tenant’s execution of this Lease.

 

Section 20.6. Governing Law. This Lease
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

 

Section 20.7. Submission of Lease. The
submission of this Lease to Tenant shall be for examination purposes only, and does not constitute a reservation of or an option
for Tenant to lease, or otherwise create any interest by Tenant in the Premises or any other offices or space situated in the Building.
Regardless of whether or not (a) Landlord has delivered to Tenant an unexecuted draft or final version of this Lease for Tenant’s
review and/or signature, (b) this Lease has been executed by Tenant only and delivered to Landlord for its review and signature,
and/or (c) Tenant has made payments of rent and/or security deposit to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, it is understood and agreed
that no contractual or other rights shall exist between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Premises, nor shall this Lease
be valid, binding on the parties and/or in effect unless and until this Lease has been fully executed by Landlord and Tenant and
such fully-executed Lease has been delivered to Tenant.

 

Section 20.8. Captions. The captions
in this Lease are for convenience only and shall not in any way limit or be deemed to construe or interpret the terms and provisions
hereof.

Words used in the masculine gender include the feminine and neuter. If there be more than one Landlord or Tenant the obligations
hereunder imposed upon Landlord and Tenant shall be joint and several.

 

Section 20.10. Independent Covenants. Except
where the covenants contained in one Article of this Lease are clearly affected by or contingent upon fulfillment by either party
of another Article or paragraph of this Lease, this Lease shall be construed as though the covenants herein between Landlord and
Tenant are independent and not dependent and Tenant hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute to the contrary and agrees
that if Landlord fails to perform its obligations set forth herein, Tenant shall not be entitled to make any repairs or perform
any actions hereunder at Landlord’s expense or to any set-off of the Rent or other amounts owing hereunder against Landlord
(except as otherwise set forth in this Lease); provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way impair the right of Tenant
to commence a separate action against Landlord for the violation by Landlord of the provisions hereof so long as notice is first
given to Landlord and any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Building, Real Property or any portion thereof, of
whose address Tenant has theretofore been notified, and an opportunity is granted to Landlord and such holder to correct such violations
as provided above.

Section 20.11. Severability. If any
covenant or agreement of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable,
then and in each such event the remainder of this Lease or the application of such covenant or agreement to any other person or
any other circumstance shall not be thereby affected, and each covenant and agreement hereof shall remain valid and enforceable
to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

Section 20.12. Warranty of Authority. If

At Its Sole Expense. Notwithstanding the fact that certain references in this Lease to acts required to be performed by Tenant

sole expense, unless the context clearly implies to the contrary each and every act to be performed or obligation to be fulfilled
by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be performed or fulfilled at Tenant’s sole expense, absent any provision of this Lease
that specifically provides to the contrary.

or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other or their successor-in-interest in respect to any matters
arising out of or relating to this Lease.

 

Section 20.18. No Merger. The voluntary
or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option
of Landlord terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies, or may, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment
to it of any or all such subleases or subtenancies.

respect thereto, shall be recorded by Tenant or by anyone acting through, under or on behalf of Tenant, and the recording thereof
in violation of this provision shall make this Lease null and void at Landlord’s election.

of the Premises, or any portion thereof, for the purpose of or in any way involving the handling, manufacturing, treatment, storage,
use, transportation, spillage, leakage, dumping, discharge or disposal (whether legal or illegal, accidental or intentional) of
any hazardous substances, materials or wastes, or any wastes regulated under any local, state or federal law (collectively, “Hazardous
Waste”).

 

Tenant shall, during the
Term, remain in full compliance with all applicable laws governing its use and occupancy of the Premises, including, without limitation,
the handling, manufacturing, treatment, storage, disposal, discharge, use, and transportation of hazardous substances, materials
or wastes, and any wastes regulated under any local, state or federal law. Tenant will remain in full compliance with the terms
and conditions of all permits and licenses issued to it by any governmental authority on account of any or all of its activities

Tenant shall be responsible for the reasonable and non-discriminatory transportation planning and management for all of Tenant’s
employees while located at the Premises, by working directly with Landlord, any governmental transportation management organization
or any other transportation-related committees or entities reasonably designated by Landlord, provided that such programs do not

peak-hour vehicle trips generated by Tenant;

 

b)           requirements for increased vehicle

only show Tenant’s business name and suite designation. Tenant shall also be entitled to a maximum of four (4) additional
listings on said Building and/or parking directory, which listings shall be limited solely to Tenant’s officers, employees,
subsidiaries, affiliates and/or sublessees, if any. Tenant shall also be entitled to Building standard signage at the entrance

Section 20.23. Intentionally Omitted.

 

Section 20.24. Confidentiality. Landlord
and Tenant agree that the terms, covenants and provisions of this Lease shall not be divulged to anyone not directly
involved in the management, administration, ownership, lending against, or subleasing of the Premises or in the management, administration
or ownership of Landlord or Tenant, which permitted disclosure shall include, but not be limited to, the board members, legal counsel
and/or accountants of either Landlord or Tenant, unless otherwise compelled by legal process. In addition, Landlord shall keep
confidential all personal or financial information concerning Tenant which may be provided to Landlord by Tenant and any information
acquired by Landlord or by its employees, contractors, agents or representatives while visiting the Premises.

Section 20.26. Landlord’s Right to
Perform Tenant’s Obligations. All obligations to be performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant
at Tenant’s expense (unless this Lease expressly provides otherwise) without any reduction of or offset against Rent. Except
to the extent set forth in Section 17.2 herein, in the event of a default by Tenant of any obligation under this Lease, Landlord
may, after delivering notice to Tenant and allowing Tenant ten (10) business days to cure such default, perform the obligation
on Tenant’s behalf, without waiving any of Landlord’s rights, remedies, claims or defenses with respect to Tenant’s
failure to perform any obligations and without releasing Tenant from such obligations. If Landlord determines that such default
reasonably requires additional time for cure, then Landlord’s notice may state such other time period, provided that Tenant
commences its cure within ten (10) business days after notice and thereafter continuously prosecutes such cure to completion. Within
fifteen (15) business days after receiving a statement from Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of the expense reasonably
incurred by Landlord in performing Tenant’s obligation. If Tenant fails to pay such amount to Landlord within the specified
time period, Landlord may (in addition to any other remedies of Landlord under this Lease or applicable law) deduct the amount
due from the Security Deposit under Section 3.7. The terms of this Section 20.26 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease.

 

Section 20.27. Civil Code Section 1938 Disclosure.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1938, Landlord hereby discloses that the Premises have not undergone an inspection by
a Certified Access Specialist to determine whether the Premises meet all applicable construction-related accessibility standards.

all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The parties agree that a digital image of this Lease
as fully-executed (such as in a portable document format (.pdf)) when sent to the email address of Tenant, its broker (if any),
its attorney (if any), or its authorized agent (if any) shall be deemed delivery of a true and correct original of this Lease,
and such digital image of this Lease shall be admissible as best evidence for the purposes of state law, Federal Rule of Evidence
1002, and the like statutes and regulations.

 

ARTICLE 21

PARKING

 

Section 21.1. Parking. Throughout the
Term, Tenant shall have the allocation of parking permits set forth in Section 21.1 of the BLI Table. Except as otherwise
permitted by Landlord’s management agent in its reasonable discretion, and based on the availability thereof, in no event
shall Tenant be entitled to purchase more than the number of parking permits listed in the BLI Table. If additional parking permits
are available on a month-to-month basis, which determination shall be in the sole discretion of Landlord’s parking agent,
Tenant shall be permitted to purchase one or more of said permits on a first-come, first-served basis.

full calendar month of the initial Term, Tenant shall be entitled to a $50.00 discount on the then posted parking charges for up
to six (6) VIP parking permits per month on a non-cumulative basis (i.e., any unused credit from any month shall not be carried
over to the next month). Landlord shall retain sole discretion to designate the location of each parking space, and whether it
shall be assigned, or unassigned, unless specifically agreed to otherwise in writing between Landlord and Tenant.

facilities of the Building at the then-posted parking rates and charges, or at such other rate or rates and charges as may be agreed
upon from time to time between Landlord and Tenant in writing. Such rate(s) or charges may be changed by Landlord from time to
time in Landlord’s sole discretion, and shall include, without limitation, any and all fees or taxes relating to parking
assessed to Landlord for such parking facilities.

 

Tenant or Tenant’s
agents, clients, contractors, directors, employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders continued use of said
transient, as well as monthly parking, shall be contingent upon Tenant and Tenant’s agents, clients, contractors, directors,
employees, invitees, licensees, officers, partners or shareholders continued compliance with the reasonable and non-discriminatory
rules and regulations adopted by Landlord, of which Tenant receives not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice,

CONSTRUCTION BY TENANT DURING TERM

 

1.           If Tenant wishes to make a Tenant
Change, as specified in Section 12.12 of this Lease, such Tenant Change shall be completed pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.12
of the Lease and this Exhibit B-1. Tenant shall bear all costs of said Tenant Change, which shall be paid directly to Tenant’s
general contractor (“Contractor”).

 

2.           Contractor shall complete construction
to the Premises pursuant to the final Plans and Specifications approved in writing by Landlord and Tenant (the “Tenant Change”),
in compliance with all applicable codes and regulations. Tenant’s selections of finishes and materials shall be indicated
on the Plans and Specifications, and shall be equal to or better than the minimum Building standards and specifications. All work
not shown on the final Plans and Specifications, but which is to be included in the Tenant Change, including but not limited to,
telephone service installation, furnishings or cabinetry, shall be installed pursuant to Landlord’s reasonable directives.

 

3.           Prior to commencing any work (other
than Cosmetic Alterations):

 

a)           Tenant’s
proposed Contractor and the Contractor’s proposed subcontractors and suppliers shall be approved in writing by Landlord,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. As a condition of such approval, so long as the same
are reasonably cost competitive, then Contractor shall use Landlord’s fire/life safety subcontractor for the applicable portion
of the Tenant Change.

 

b)           During completion
of any Tenant Change, neither Tenant or Contractor shall permit any sub-contractors, workmen, laborers, material or equipment to
come into or upon the Building if the use thereof, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would violate Landlord’s agreement
with any union providing work, labor or services in or about the Building or disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades
engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building or the Common Areas. If any violation, disturbance,
interference or conflict occurs, Tenant, upon demand by Landlord, shall immediately cause all contractors or subcontractors or
all materials causing the violation, disturbance, interference, difficulty or conflict, to leave or be removed from the Building
or the Common Areas immediately. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims, suits, demands,
damages, judgments, costs, interest and expenses (including attorneys fees and costs incurred in the defense thereof) to which
Landlord may be subject or suffer when the same arise out of or in connection with the use of, work in, construction to, or actions
in, on, upon or about the Premises by Tenant or Tenant’s agents, contractors, directors, employees, licensees, officers,
partners or shareholders, including any actions relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any Tenant Change,
improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on, upon or about the Premises.

 

c)           Contractor
shall submit to Landlord and Tenant a written bid for completion of the Tenant Change. Said bid shall include Contractor's overhead,
profit, and fees, and, upon completion of said Tenant Change, pay an administration fee for supervision of said Tenant Change equal
to two percent (2%) of the total cost of the Tenant Change, to defray said agent’s costs for supervision of the construction.

 

4.           Tenant or Contractor
shall submit all Plans and Specifications to Landlord, and no work on the Premises shall be commenced before Tenant has received
Landlord’s final written approval thereof, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In addition,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any and all of Landlord’s reasonable out of pocket costs (up to a maximum of $1,000.00)
incurred in reviewing Tenant’s plans for any Tenant Change or for any other “peer review” work associated with
Landlord’s review of Tenant’s plans for any Tenant Change, including, without limitation, Landlord’s reasonable
out of pocket costs incurred in engaging any third party engineers, contractors, consultants or design specialists. Tenant shall
pay such costs to Landlord within five (5) business days after Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of a copy of the invoice(s)
for such work.

Tenant from and against any and all liability for death or injury to persons or damage to property caused in or about or by reason
of the construction of any work done by Contractor or Contractor’s subcontractors or suppliers.

 

7.           Unless otherwise
waived in writing by Landlord, which waiver shall be in Landlord’s sole discretion, Contractor shall provide payment and
performance bonds in an amount equal to 100% of the estimated amount of Tenant Change, as specified to Landlord pursuant to Paragraph
2.

 

8.           Contractor and Contractor’s
subcontractors and suppliers shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable administrative control and supervision. Landlord shall
provide Contractor and Contractor’s subcontractors and suppliers with reasonable access to the Premises.

 

9.           During construction of the Tenant
Change, Contractor shall adhere to the procedures contained hereinbelow, which represent Landlord’s minimum requirements
for completion of the Tenant Change.

completion of the Tenant Change, Tenant shall provide Landlord with such evidence as Landlord may reasonably request that the Contractor
has been paid in full, and Contractor shall provide Landlord with lien releases as requested by Landlord, confirmation that no
liens have been filed against the Premises or the Building. If any liens arise against the Premises or the Building as a result
of the Tenant Change, Tenant shall immediately, at Tenant’s sole expense, remove such liens and provide Landlord evidence
that the title to the Building and Premises have been cleared of such liens. Tenant shall
also deliver to Landlord all other information reasonably requested by Landlord, including a “close-out” package, to
be delivered at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, without any requirement that Landlord execute any release forms or other
documents as a condition to such delivery, and notwithstanding any intellectual property rights in such property claimed by Tenant,
its architect, contractor or other third part, which close-out package shall include mechanical and electrical final CAD as-builts;
architectural CAD as-built that includes mechanical and electrical final as-builts; architectural as-builts; permit drawings for
all trades along with permit card with all required signatures; air balance report (2 copies); warranty letters from all trades;

timely complete the Tenant Change, unless the Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to the provisions contained therein, Tenant
acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s obligations under the Lease to pay Fixed Monthly Rent and/or Additional Rent shall
continue unabated, except as otherwise set forth in this Lease.

during the Term, and if such material default continues after the expiration of any notice and cure periods, then, regardless of
whether such material default is thereafter cured, (a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the entire Rent Deferral Amount
due for the months of the Term prior to the occurrence of such material default, and (b) Tenant shall not be entitled to any additional
or future deferral of Fixed Monthly Rent. If Tenant does not commit any such material default during the first two (2) years of
the initial Term, then Tenant shall thereafter be relieved of any obligation to repay any Rent Deferral Amount.

 5.4 Re-deferrals. A Participant who has elected a Designated Date may make an election to re-defer all
(or a portion thereof if permitted by the Committee) of the amounts to be paid or commence to be paid on such Designated Date to a later Designated Date or to change the form of a payment (a “Re-deferral Election”); provided that, the

Participant’s Separation from Service. 
 For purposes of this Section 5.4, each payment, including each installment payment, shall be treated as
a separate payment under Section 409A of the Code. 
 6. Employer Contributions. 

6.1 Corrective Matching Contributions. Any Corrective Matching Contribution shall be credited to the Participant’s Corrective
Matching Contribution Account as soon as practicable following the last day of the Plan Year to which the Corrective Matching Contribution relates and in no event later than the March 15 immediately following the Plan Year. Corrective Matching
Contributions need not be uniform among Participants. The Corrective Matching Contribution is the amount equal to the excess, if any, of A minus B, where: 

“A” is the Matching Contribution which would have been contributed to the Savings Plan and allocated to the Participant’s
account (pursuant to Election 24 of the Savings Plan) for the Taxable Year, determined without the limitations imposed under Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 401(m)(2), 402(g) and 415(c) of the Code calculated using the Participant’s Base Salary
for the Taxable Year; and 

  
 8 

 “B” is the actual Matching Contribution made on behalf of the Participant
pursuant to Election 24 of the Savings Plan for the Taxable Year.

but need not, make a Discretionary Contribution to the Plan on behalf of a Participant in such amount as the Employer shall determine in its sole discretion. Any Discretionary Contribution shall be credited to the Participant’s Discretionary
Contribution Account as soon as practicable following the last day of the Plan Year to which the Discretionary Contribution relates and no later than the March 15 immediately following the Plan Year. Employers are under no obligation to make a

 (a) Each Participant who is eligible to receive a Discretionary Nonelective Contribution in accordance with
Elections 27 and 28 under the Savings Plan shall be entitled to receive a Corrective Nonelective Contribution as defined herein. The Corrective Nonelective Contribution is the amount equal to the excess, if any, of C minus D, where: 

“C” is the Discretionary Nonelective Contribution which would have been contributed to the Savings Plan and allocated to the
Participant (pursuant to Elections 27 and 28 of the Savings Plan) for the Taxable Year, determined without the limitations imposed by the nondiscrimination testing requirements under Sections 401(a)(4), 401(a)(17) and 415(c) of the Code calculated
using the Participant’s Base Salary for the Taxable Year; and 
 “D” is the actual Discretionary Nonelective
Contribution made on behalf of the Participant’s Account as determined in accordance with Elections 27 and 28 of the Savings Plan for the Taxable Year. 

(b) Timing. The Company shall credit the Corrective Nonelective Contribution, if any, to the Participant’s Corrective Nonelective
Contributions Sub-Account as soon as administratively feasible following its determination in accordance with this Section 6.3. 
 7. Accounts
and Investment Options.

procedures established by the Committee. 
 7.3 Earnings. Each Account shall be adjusted for Earnings based on the performance of the
hypothetical Investment Options selected. 
 7.4 Nature of Accounts. Accounts are not actually invested in the Investment Options
available under the Plan and Participants do not have any real or beneficial ownership in any Investment Option. A Participant’s Account is solely a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to the Participant
pursuant to the Plan and shall not constitute or be treated as a trust fund of any kind. 
 7.5 Statements. Each Participant shall be
provided with statements setting out the amounts in his or her Account which shall be delivered at such intervals determined by the Committee. 
 8.
Vesting. 
 8.1 Vesting of Elective Deferrals and Corrective Deferrals. Participants shall be fully vested at all times in
their Elective Deferrals and Corrective Deferrals, and any Earnings thereon. 
 8.2 Vesting of Corrective Matching Contributions,
Corrective Nonelective Contributions and Discretionary Contributions. Participants shall be vested in their Corrective Matching Contributions, Corrective Nonelective Contributions and Discretionary Contributions, and any Earnings thereon in
accordance with the following schedule: 
  

					
	 Years of Service
	  	Vested Percentage	 
	 Less than 3 years
	  	 	0	% 
	 3 years or more
	  	 	100	% 

 Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set out above, the Committee may, in its discretion, establish a different vesting
schedule that will apply to Corrective Matching Contributions, Corrective Nonelective Contributions and Discretionary Contributions made to the Plan on behalf of any Participant for any Plan Year. 

8.3 Accelerated Vesting of Accounts Upon the Occurrence of Specified Events. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, all
Accounts shall immediately become 100% vested in the event of a Change in Control, termination of the Plan, or the Participant’s death or attainment of age Sixty-Five (65). 

  
 10 

 9. Payment of Participant Accounts. 

9.1 In General. Payment of a Participant’s vested Account shall be made or commence to be made on the earliest to occur of the
following Distribution Events: 
 (a) Designated Date: if applicable, the Designated Date specified in the Participant’s Deferral
Election (as the same may have been re-deferred in accordance with Section 5.4) provided that the Participant is still employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates on such Designated Date; 

(b) Separation from Service: the Participant’s Separation from Service; and 

(c) Death: the Participant’s death. 

9.2 Timing of Valuation. The value of a Participant’s Account on the Distribution Date shall be determined as of the applicable
Determination Date. 
 9.3 Forfeiture of Unvested Account Balances. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, and subject to
Section 8.3, a Participant’s unvested Account balance shall be forfeited upon the occurrence of a Distribution Event. 
 9.4
Timing of Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, distribution shall commence on a date selected by the Company which shall be within 90 days following a Distribution Event. 

9.5 Timing of Payments upon Separation from Service. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9 to the contrary, no distribution
of a Participant’s Account shall be made due to a Participant’s Separation from Service until the first payroll date of the seventh month following the Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, upon the date of the
Participant’s death). Any distribution to which a Participant otherwise would have been entitled under the Plan during the period between the Participant’s Separation from Service and the Specified Employee Payment Date shall be
accumulated and paid on the Specified Employee Payment Date. 
 9.6 Form of Payment. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.1
regarding the limitation of an Eligible Employee’s participation in the Plan, each Participant shall specify in his or her Election Notice one of the following forms of payment for amounts in his or her Account that are covered by the election:

 (a) a single lump sum payment; or 

(b) three (3) annual installments. 

In the absence of a valid election with respect to form of payment, amounts will be paid in a single lump sum payment. 

  
 11 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may allow Participants to elect that payment be made
in eleven (11) annual installments to be paid over a period in excess of ten (10) years. If a Participant dies prior to receiving the final installment, the remaining amount shall be paid in the single lump sum payment to the
Participant’s Beneficiary on a day selected by the Company which is within the ninety (90) day period immediately following the date of the Participant’s death. 

In the event that amounts are payable in three (3) installments, the first installment shall commence on a day selected by the Company
which shall be within the 90-day period commencing on the applicable Distribution Date, in accordance with this Section 9, and shall equal 1/3rd of the Account balance on the Determination
Date. Following the initial installment distribution, subsequent installment distributions shall be paid on the anniversary date of such initial installment in each succeeding year thereafter, and shall be calculated by multiplying the Account
balance on the Distribution Date by a fraction of which the numerator is one and the denominator is one whole number less than the denominator of the fraction used in calculating the immediately preceding annual installment payment until one hundred
percent (100%) of the value has been distributed to the Participant. Until the Plan pays the entire amount of a Participant’s Account, the Plan will continue to credit the Participant’s Account with Earnings, in accordance with
Section 7.3. 
 If payments are made in eleven (11) annual installments in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the same
methodology for calculating the annual installments as described above shall apply, except that the first annual installment shall equal 1/11th of the Account balance on the Determination Date.

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant’s deferrals for a Plan Year consist solely of Corrective Deferrals, the amount
will be paid in three (3) installments following the Participant’s Separation from Service. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the value of a Participant’s vested Account is less than Twenty Thousand One Hundred Dollars ($20,100.00), the amount will be paid in a single lump sum. 

9.7 Payment upon Death. Regardless of Section 9.6, if the Participant’s Separation from Service is a result of the
Participant’s death, the Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in a single lump sum payment as soon as feasible following Participant’s death. In the event the Participant dies after the
commencement of distributions but prior to the complete distribution of his or her entire Account pursuant to Section 9.6., the remaining unpaid balance of the Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary in a
single lump sum payment as soon as feasible following Participant’s death. 

  
 12 

 9.8 Medium of Payment. Any payment from a Participant’s Account shall be made in
cash. 
 10. Permissible Acceleration Events. 

10.1 In General. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may direct the
Company to accelerate payment of all or a portion of a Participant’s vested Account upon the occurrence of any of the Acceleration Events set forth below:  

(a) Domestic Relations Orders. Payment may be accelerated to the extent necessary to comply with a domestic relations order (as defined
in Section 414(p)(1)(B) of the Code). 
 (b) Payment of Employment Taxes. Payment may be accelerated (i) to pay the Federal
Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax imposed under Sections 3010, 3121(a) and 3121(v)(2) of the Code (the “FICA Amount”), or (ii) to pay the income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code or the
corresponding withholding provisions of applicable state, local or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of the FICA Amount and the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the pyramiding Section 3401 wages and taxes;
provided, however, that the total payment under this Section 10(c) shall not exceed the FICA Amount and the income tax withholding related to the FICA Amount. 

(c) Payment Upon Income Inclusion. Payment may be accelerated to the extent that the Plan fails to meet the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code; provided that, the amount accelerated shall not exceed the amount required to be included in income as a result of the failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code. 

(d) Termination of the Plan. Payment may be accelerated upon termination of the Plan in accordance with Treas. Reg.
Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix). 
 (e) Payment of State, Local or Foreign Taxes. Payment may be accelerated: 

 

	 	(i)	to pay state, local or foreign tax obligations arising from participation in the Plan that relate to an amount deferred under the Plan before the amount is paid or made available to the Participant (the “State,
Local and Foreign Tax Amount”); provided, however, the accelerated payment amount shall not exceed the taxes due as a result of participation in the Plan, and/or 

  
 13 

	 	(ii)	to pay income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code as a result of such payment and the payment of the additional income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code
attributable to the additional Section 3401 wages and taxes; provided however, the accelerated payment amount shall not exceed the aggregate of the State, Local and Foreign Tax Amount and the income tax withholding related to such amount.

 (f) Certain Offsets. Payment may be accelerated to satisfy a debt of the Participant to the Company or an Affiliate
incurred in the ordinary course of the service relationship between the Company and the Participant; provided, however, the amount accelerated shall not exceed Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) and the payment shall be made at the same time and in the
same amount as the debt otherwise would have been due and collected from the Participant. 
 (g) Bona Fide Disputes as to Right to
Payment. Payment may be accelerated where the payment is part of a settlement between the Company or an Affiliate and the Participant of an arm’s length, bona fide dispute as to the Participant’s right to the deferred amount. 

(h) Unforeseeable Emergency. Payment may be accelerated for an Unforeseeable Emergency, subject to the rules and restrictions set forth
in Section 10.2. 
 10.2 Unforeseeable Emergency. The Committee may direct the Company to accelerate payment of all or a portion
of the Participant’s vested Account in accordance with Section 10.1(h) if the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that the Participant has incurred an Unforeseeable Emergency, based on the relevant facts and circumstances and in
accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(3), provided the following rules and restrictions are satisfied. 
 (a) Application for
Payment. A Participant may request, in the manner prescribed by the Committee, payment of all or a portion of the Participant’s Account in the event the Participant incurs an Unforeseeable Emergency. The Participant must provide appropriate
written evidence to substantiate the existence of the Unforeseeable Emergency and the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need consistent with the provisions of this Plan. 

  
 14 

 (b) Limitation on Amount of Payment. The Plan must limit the amount of any payment based
on Unforeseeable Emergency to the amount that is reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need, which may include amounts necessary to pay any Federal, state or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated result from the payment.
However, the Committee in determining “necessity” may disregard amounts available as a hardship distribution or a loan from a qualified plan or as an unforeseeable emergency distribution from another nonqualified plan. In no event may the
amount of the payment exceed the value of the Participant’s Account. 
 (c) Exhaustion of Other Sources of Payment. The Plan may
not make payment to the extent that the Unforeseeable Emergency may be relieved: (i) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise; or (ii) by liquidation of the Participant’s assets to the extent that such
liquidation of assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship; or (iii) by the Participant’s cessation of Corrective Deferrals under the Plan. 

(d) Payment from Participant’s Account. Payment shall be paid in a single lump sum payment from the Participant’s Account by
first reducing the Participant’s Corrective Deferrals for the current Taxable Year, then by reducing the remaining Account until the value covers the amount of the emergency need. Payment generally will be made within 90 days following the
Committee’s approval of the Participant’s Unforeseeable Emergency Payment request. If that 90-day period spans more than one Taxable Year of the Participant, the Participant will not have any discretion over the Taxable Year of payment.

 (e) Treatment of Payment. Neither a Participant’s request or failure to request an Unforeseeable Emergency payment, nor the
Committee’s acceptance or rejection of such a request, constitutes a Re-deferral Election. 
 The Committee’s determination of
whether payment may be accelerated in accordance with this Section 10 shall be made in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4). 

11. Section 162(m) of the Code. 

If the Committee reasonably anticipates that if a payment were made as scheduled under the Plan it would result in a loss of the
Employer’s tax deduction due to the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, such payment can be delayed and paid (a) during the Participant’s first Taxable Year in which the Committee reasonably anticipates that the
Employer’s tax deduction will not be limited or eliminated by the application of Section 162(m) of the Code or (b) subject to Section 9.5, during the period beginning with the Participant’s Separation from Service and ending
on the later of the last day of the Employer’s Taxable Year in which the 

  
 15 

 
Participant separates from service or the 15th day of the third month following the Participant’s Separation from Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment under the Plan may be
deferred in accordance with this Section 11 unless all scheduled payments to the Participant that could be delayed in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(i) are also delayed. 

12. Plan Administration. 
 12.1
Administration by Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee which shall have the authority to: 
 (a) construe and
interpret the Plan and apply its provisions; 
 (b) promulgate, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of the
Plan; 
 (c) authorize any person to execute, on behalf of the Company, any instrument required to carry out the purposes of the Plan; 

(d) determine minimum or maximum amounts that Participants may elect to defer under the Plan; 

(e) select the Investment Options that will be available for the hypothetical investment of Accounts under the Plan and establish procedures
for permitting Participants to change their selected Investment Options; 
 (f) determine whether any Corrective Matching Contributions will
be made to the Plan with respect to any Plan Year and the amount of any such contributions; 
 (g) determine whether any Discretionary
Contributions will be made to the Plan on behalf of any Participants with respect to any Plan Year and the amount of any such contributions; 

(h) calculate Earnings; 
 (i)
interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any defect in and/or supply any omission in the Plan and any instrument, Election Notice or agreement relating to the Plan; 

(j) exercise discretion to make any and all other determinations which it determines to be necessary or advisable for the administration of the
Plan; and 
 (k) delegate clerical and administrative tasks as it deems appropriate. 

12.2 Non-Uniform Treatment. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and any such determinations may be
made selectively among Participants. 

  
 16 

 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled, among other things, to make non-uniform and selective determinations with regard to: (a) the terms or
conditions of any Elective Deferral; (b) the amount, terms or conditions of any Corrective Matching Contribution or Discretionary Contribution; or (c) the availability of Investment Options. 

12.3 Committee Decisions Final. Subject to Section 15, all decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan
shall be final and binding on the Employers and Participants, unless such decisions are determined by a court having jurisdiction to be arbitrary and capricious. 

12.4 Indemnification. No member of the Committee or any designee shall be liable for any action, failure to act, determination or
interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan except for any liability arising from his or her own willful malfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties. The Employers shall jointly and severally indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless any Employee, officer or director of the Company or any other Employer for all acts taken or omitted in carrying out the responsibilities of the Company, Employer, Board, Committee or Plan Administrator under the terms of
this Plan or other responsibilities imposed upon such individual by law. This indemnification for all such acts taken or omitted is intentionally broad, but shall not provide indemnification for any civil penalty that may be imposed by law, nor
shall it provide indemnification for embezzlement or diversion of Plan funds for the benefit of any such individual. The Employers shall jointly and severally indemnify (including advancement of funds to) any such individual for expenses of
defending an action by a Participant, former Participant, Beneficiary, service provider, government entity or other person, including all legal fees and other costs of such defense. The Employers shall also reimburse any such an individual for any
monetary recovery in a successful action against such individual in any federal or state court or arbitration. In addition, if a claim is settled out of court with the concurrence of the Company, the Employers shall jointly and severally indemnify
any such individual for any monetary liability under any such settlement, and the expenses thereof. Such indemnification will not be provided to any person who is not a present or former officer, Employee or director of the Company or any other
Employer nor shall it be provided for any claim by any Employer against any such person. 
 13. Amendment and Termination. 

The Board may, at any time, and in its sole discretion, alter, amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof; provided,
however, that no such amendment, modification, suspension or termination shall, without the consent of a Participant, adversely affect such Participant’s right to the vested amount credited to his or her Account and provided, further, that, no
payment of benefits shall occur upon termination of the Plan unless the requirements of Section 409A of the Code have been met. 

  
 17 

 14. Miscellaneous. 

14.1 No Employment or Other Service Rights. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed pursuant thereto shall confer upon any
Participant any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time with or without notice and with or
without cause. 
 14.2 Tax Withholding. The Employers shall have the right to deduct from any amounts otherwise payable under the
Plan any federal, state, local, or other applicable taxes required to be withheld. 
 14.3 Governing Law. The Plan shall be
administered, construed and governed in all respects under and by the laws of Ohio, without reference to the principles of conflicts of law (except and to the extent preempted by applicable Federal law). 

14.4 Section 409A of the Code. The Company intends that the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and
shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representation that the Plan complies with Section 409A of the Code and shall have no liability to any Participant for any
failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code. 
 This Plan shall constitute an “account balance plan” as defined in Treas.
Reg. Section 31.3121(v)(2)-1(c)(1)(ii)(A). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, all amounts deferred or contributed under this Plan shall be aggregated with amounts deferred or contributed under other account balance plans. 

14.5 Trust. From time to time, the Company may enter into an agreement (“Trust Agreement”) with one or more institutions
pursuant to which such institution shall serve as the trustee of a trust (“Trust”) to be used in connection with the Plan. 
 The
Employers may make contributions to the Trust which will be held by the Trustee and invested and distributed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Trust Agreement. The Company retains the right, but not the obligation, to direct that
Trust assets be invested in such a manner as to mirror the hypothetical investments of the Participants. 
 The Trust is intended to be a
rabbi trust and the assets of the Trust shall at all times be subject to the claims of the Employers’ general creditors. 

Notwithstanding the existence of the Trust, the Plan is intended to be “unfunded” for purposes of ERISA and shall not be construed
as providing income to Participants prior to the date that amounts deferred under the Plan are paid. 

  
 18 

 14.6 No Warranties. Neither the Company or any Employer, nor the Committee, warrants or
represents that the value of any Participant’s Account will increase. Each Participant assumes the risk in connection with the hypothetical investment of his or her Account. 

14.7 Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant under the Plan may from time to time name any Beneficiary or Beneficiaries to receive
the Participant’s interest in the Plan in the event of the Participant’s death. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Committee and shall be effective
only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be the Participant’s
estate. 
 14.8 No Assignment. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
anticipate or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey any amounts payable hereunder prior to the date that such amounts are paid (except for the designation of Beneficiaries pursuant to Section 14.7). 

14.9 Expenses. The costs of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Employers. 

14.10 Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, whether in whole or in part, such
provision shall be deemed modified to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining provisions shall not be affected. 

14.11 Headings and Subheadings. Headings and subheadings in the Plan are for convenience only and are not to be considered in the
construction of the provisions hereof. 
 14.12 Paperless Administration. If the Plan requires that an action shall be in writing,
then, to the extent permitted and effective pursuant to law, and approved by the Committee on a nondiscriminatory basis, such action may be taken in person, telephonically or electronically in lieu of such written action. 

15. Claims Procedures. 
 15.1
Filing a Claim. Any Participant or other person claiming an interest in the Plan (the “Claimant”) may file a claim in writing with the Committee. The Committee shall review the claim itself or appoint an individual or entity to review
the claim. 
 15.2 Claim Decision. The Claimant shall be notified within ninety (90) days after the claim is filed whether the
claim is approved or denied, unless the Committee determines that special circumstances beyond the control of the Plan require an extension of time, in which case the Committee may have up to an additional ninety (90) days to process the claim.
If the Committee determines that an extension of time for processing is required, the Committee shall 

  
 19 

 
furnish written notice of the extension to the Claimant before the end of the initial ninety (90) day period. Any notice of extension shall describe the special circumstances necessitating
the additional time and the date by which the Committee expects to render its decision. 
 15.3 Notice of Denial. If the Committee
denies the claim, it must provide to the Claimant, in writing, a notice which includes: 
 (a) the specific reason(s) for the denial; 

(b) specific reference to the pertinent Plan provisions on which such denial is based; 

(c) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim and an explanation of why
such material or information is necessary; 
 (d) a description of the Plan’s appeal procedures and the time limits applicable to such
procedures, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following a denial of the claim on appeal; and 

(e) if an internal rule was relied on to make the decision, either a copy of the internal rule or a statement that this information is
available at no charge upon request. 
 15.4 Appeal Procedures. A request for appeal of a denied claim must be made in writing to the
Committee within sixty (60) days after receiving notice of denial. The decision on appeal will be made within sixty (60) days after the Committee’s receipt of a request for appeal, unless special circumstances require an extension of
time for processing, in which case a decision will be rendered not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a request for appeal. A notice of such an extension must be provided to the Claimant within the initial sixty
(60) day period and must explain the special circumstances and provide an expected date of decision. The reviewer shall afford the Claimant an opportunity to review and receive, without charge, all relevant documents, information and records
and to submit issues and comments in writing to the Committee. The reviewer shall take into account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim regardless of whether the information was
submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. 
 15.5 Notice of Decision on Appeal. If the Committee denies the
appeal, it must provide to the Claimant, in writing, a notice which includes: 
 (a) the specific reason(s) for the denial; 

  
 20 

 (b) specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which such denial is based; 

(c) a statement that the Claimant may receive on request all relevant records at no charge; 

(d) a description of the Plan’s voluntary procedures and deadlines, if any; 

(e) a statement of the Claimant’s right to sue under Section 502(a) of ERISA; and 

(f) if an internal rule was relied on to make the decision, either a copy of the internal rule or a statement that this information is
available at no charge upon request. 
 15.6 Claims Procedures Mandatory. The internal claims procedures set forth in this
Section 15 are mandatory. If a Claimant fails to follow these claims procedures, or to timely file a request for appeal in accordance with this Section 15, the denial of the Claim shall become final and binding on all persons for all
purposes. 
 In WITNESS WHEREOF, United Community Financial Corp. has adopted this Plan this 31 day of December, 2016, to become
effective as of the Effective Date written above.
