III.    Premises; Tenant Improvements; Delivery.

A.Landlord agrees to perform the work ("Landlord's Work") necessary in order to deliver the roof, structure, HVAC, electrical, mechanical, lighting and plumbing systems for the Premises in good operating condition and repair and in compliance with all Laws, including, but not limited to, those items set forth on Exhibit D-2 as Landlord's responsibility, but excluding those items set forth on Exhibit D-2 as Tenant's responsibility ("Landlord's Delivery Obligations"), with such Landlord's Work to be performed in accordance with the Landlord's Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 ("Landlord's Work Letter"). All construction warranties in Landlord's possession relating to portions of the Premises that are Tenant's obligation to maintain and that are assignable shall be assigned to Tenant; provided that any such warranties are automatically assigned back to Landlord upon the expiration or termination of this Lease.  Landlord shall deliver the Premises and the Building in compliance with all Laws with respect to Hazardous Materials. Landlord shall indemnify, defend and hold Tenant and the Tenant Related Parties harmless against and from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, actions, costs, charges and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and other professional fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law), which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Tenant or any of the Tenant Related Parties and arising out of or in connection with the presence of Hazardous Materials within the Premises (except to the extent such Hazardous Materials are introduced by Tenant or its employees,  agents  or  contractors). "Hazardous  Materials"  means  any substances, materials or wastes subject to regulation under any federal, state or local statute, law, rule, regulation, ordinance, code, policy or rule of common law now or hereafter in effect and in each case as amended, and any judicial or administrative interpretation thereof, including any judicial or administrative order, consent decree or judgment, relating to the environment,  health, safety or hazardous, toxic or radioactive materials. Subject to the representations set forth in this Section, the completion of Landlord's Delivery Obligations and Landlord's other obligations under this Lease, the Premises are accepted by Tenant in "as is" condition and configuration, and Tenant acknowledges that there are no other representations or warranties  (express  or  implied)  by  Landlord  regarding  the condition of the Premises or the Building.

B.If Landlord fails to deliver the Premises to Tenant in the condition as required by this Lease with all of Landlord's Work (excepting therefrom the Tenant Performed Landlord's Work as set forth in the Landlord's Work Letter) complete on or before the  respective  "Outside  Delivery  Dates"  set  forth  on  Exhibit  D-2,  (a) after  the sixtieth (60th) day of  late delivery  after the Outside  Delivery  Date, Tenant shall have  the  right  to  terminate  this  Lease  upon  the  delivery  of  written  notice  to Landlord given at any time before delivery in accordance  with the terms  of this Lease occurs,  (b) Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) day of rent abatement  per day for the first sixty (60) days after the Outside Delivery Date until the Premises is delivered in accordance with this Lease, and (c) Tenant shall be entitled to two(2) days of rent abatement per day of late delivery from and after the sixtieth (60th) day of late delivery after the Outside Delivery Date until the Premises are delivered in accordance with this Lease. The parties acknowledge that Tenant's remedies set forth above with respect to the Outside Delivery Date shall not apply to any delay by Tenant in performing any of the Tenant Performed Landlord's Work (as defined in Exhibit D-1) unless such delay is due to a Landlord Delay (as that term is defined in Exhibit D). After the Delivery Date, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing if Tenant or any of its employees or agents are aware that the Premises were not delivered in accordance with Landlord's Delivery Obligations (a "Delivery Deficiency"). Tenant's failure to give Landlord notice of a Delivery Deficiency within thirty (30) days of the Delivery Date shall be deemed satisfaction of the Landlord's Delivery Obligations; provided that such acceptance or deemed acceptance shall not relieve Landlord of its (1) maintenance and repair obligations under this Lease, (2) obligations with  respect  to  the  presence  of  Hazardous  Materials  within the  Premises  that were  not  installed  or  introduced  in the  Property  by Tenant,  its  contractors  or agents, or (3) the obligation to remedy any of Landlord's Delivery Obligations that are not reasonably discoverable during any inspections  by Tenant  during such period. If (i) Tenant gives Landlord written notice of a Delivery Deficiency within thirty  (30)  days  of the  Delivery  Date,  and  (ii) the  Delivery  Deficiency  itself  or Landlord's  entry  into the Premises  to  cure the  Delivery  Deficiency  prevents  or delays  Tenant  from  completing  its  Tenant  Improvements,  and/or  operating  its business in the Premises, then the Commencement  Date shall be delayed until such  time  the  Delivery Deficiency is  so  cured. Tenant  shall  be  entitled  to terminate this Lease if within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of the Delivery Deficiency  Landlord  fails  to  cure  the  Delivery  Deficiency  or,  if  such  Delivery Deficiency cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, to commence and diligently  pursue the cure of the  Delivery  Deficiency. In no way shall Tenant's acceptance of the Premises limit Landlord’s liability and obligations related to Hazardous Materials as set forth in this Lease. In the event that the presence of any Hazardous Materials that were not installed by Tenant, its contractors or agents are discovered prior to the Commencement Date and such Hazardous Materials prevent or delay Tenant from commencing and/or completing its Tenant Improvements, and/or operating its business in the Premises, then, in addition to Tenant's rights and remedies in this Lease and at equity and in law, the Commencement Date shall be delayed until such time as the Hazardous Materials have been abated or remediated in accordance with applicable Law.

C.Landlord  shall make  the Premises  available  to  Tenant for  the  work and installations (including the Tenant Performed Landlord Work and Tenant Improvements (as defined below)) promptly after execution of this Lease, so long as  such work  and  installation  do  not  unreasonably  interfere  with  or  materially obstruct the progress of the work  being performed by Landlord. The license to enter the Premises  shall be  subject to such reasonable restrictions and conditions  as may be imposed 

3

by Landlord from  time to time and Tenant shall coordinate all activities  on  and  about the  Premises with  Landlord's  designated representatives. Tenant's  right to enter onto the  Premises shall  not trigger the commencement  of the period to establish the Commencement  Date nor shall it be deemed the Delivery Date; provided, however, that the remaining terms and provisions of this Lease (including, without limitation, the insurance requirements) shall  automatically  become  effective  and  apply  to  all  activities  of  Tenant  and Tenant's  employees,  agents, contractors  and licensees  in, about,  or relating to the Premises.

D.Upon delivery of possession of the Premises by Landlord, Tenant will proceed at its own expense, to perform all work, supply all installations  and fully  equip the Premises necessary for the completion of the Premises and the proper operation of Tenant's business therein (the "Tenant Improvements") pursuant to a separate work  letter  agreement  (the  "Work  Letter'')  attached  as  Exhibit  D. The parties acknowledge and agree that Tenant Improvements shall not be deemed to include any Tenant Performed Landlord Work. The Tenant Improvements shall be performed with materials of good quality and in a proper workmanlike manner. Tenant shall secure any and all governmental permits, approvals and authorizations required in connection with any such work, and all the Tenant Improvements shall be performed in compliance with all Laws. Tenant shall not do any construction work or alterations, nor shall Tenant install any equipment other than trade fixtures and personal property without first obtaining Landlord's written approval of the plans and specifications therefore in accordance with the Work Letter. The approval by Landlord of such plans and specifications shall not constitute the assumption of any liability on the part of the Landlord for their accuracy or their conformity with requirements of any building code, or other municipal or governmental regulation or ordinance. Prior to commencement of any work upon the Premises by Tenant, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a certificate of public liability and property damage insurance of a type and with the limits as shall be reasonably acceptable to Landlord and naming Landlord as additional insured, and evidence of Worker's Compensation in such amounts as are required by law. If Tenant or its contractors are performing any Tenant Improvements or Alterations that constitute new construction or structural alterations to the Building (including any movement of load bearing wails), Tenant shall maintain Builder's Risk insurance in such amounts as are reasonably acceptable to Landlord based on the scope of work being performed.

E.If Tenant completes the Tenant Improvements before the Commencement Date, Tenant may conduct its business in the Premises subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease except that Tenant's operating in the Premises shall not affect determination of the Commencement Date (or the commencement of the obligation to pay Base Rent). The parties acknowledge and agree that Tenant has no obligation to open for business or operate from the Premises.

F.Landlord and Tenant each specifically acknowledge and agree that all references contained in this Lease and in any of the exhibits attached hereto containing the words "to Landlord's knowledge" (whether used in the phrase "to the best knowledge of Landlord", "to the best of Landlord's knowledge", "Landlord's knowledge", "actually known to Landlord", "known to Landlord", or in similar or other contexts) (i) shall refer to the actual personal knowledge of Geoff Wood and Kristina Kessler; (ii) shall in no case refer to the actual or constructive, imputed or implied knowledge of any other employee, agent, officer, director or other representative of Landlord or any investment advisor, attorney or other contractor or representative of Landlord (together, the "Landlord Representatives"); and (iii) shall in no case impose upon Landlord or Landlord Representatives any duty or obligation to verify any representation, warranty or statement contained in this Lease or in any exhibit attached hereto or to otherwise investigate the facts or circumstances relating or otherwise pertinent thereto. Landlord hereby represents and warrants that Geoff Wood and Kristina Kessler are the representatives of Landlord most knowledgeable about the present operation and condition of the Premises.

G.The measurements of square feet set forth in this Lease shall be consistent with the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) International (ANSI 265.1-1989) Standard Method of Floor Measurement. At any time within ninety (90) days following the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right, at its expense, to have its architect/space planner remeasure the Premises in accordance with the foregoing ANSI/BOMA guidelines, and if there is a deviation from the square feet of floor area as set forth above, Landlord shall, effective as of the Effective Date, adjust the Rentable Square Footage the Premises to reflect the actual floor area of the Premises, the Base Rent, the Tenant Allowance and other charges which are based on the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises. Landlord shall have the right, at its expense, to have its architect verify any such deviation determined by the Tenant's architect. In the event of an adjustment of floor area, the parties shall within ten (10) days after the written request of either party enter into a lease amendment amending this Lease as to the matters set forth above. In the event that Tenant does not provide written notice to Landlord within ninety (90) days of delivery of the possession of the Premises that a re-measurement of the Premises has revealed a deviation from the square feet of floor area as set forth above, then Landlord and Tenant stipulate and agree that the Rentable Square Footage of the Building and the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises set forth herein are correct and shall not be remeasured.

IV.    Rent.

A.Payments. As consideration for this Lease, commencing on the Commencement Date (however subject to abatement rights as set forth herein), Tenant shall pay Landlord, without any setoff or deduction (except to the extent as otherwise set forth in this Lease), the total amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent due for the Term. "Additional Rent" means all sums (exclusive of Base Rent) that Tenant is required to pay Landlord or any other person or entity under the Lease. Additional Rent and Base Rent are sometimes collectively referred to as "Rent". Tenant shall pay and be liable for all rental, sales and use taxes (but excluding income taxes), if any, imposed upon or measured by Rent under applicable Law. Base Rent and Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses (defined in Section IV.B.) shall be due and payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month without notice or demand. All other items of Rent shall be due and payable by Tenant on or before thirty (30) days after billing by Landlord. All payments of Rent shall be by good and sufficient check or by other means (such as automatic debit or electronic transfer) acceptable to Landlord. If Tenant fails to pay any item or installment of Rent when due, Tenant shall pay Landlord an administration fee equal to five percent (5%) of the past due Rent, provided that Tenant shall be entitled to a grace period of five (5) days for the first two (2) late payments of Rent in a given calendar year. If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the monthly Base Rent and Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses for the month shall be prorated based on the number of days in such calendar month.  Landlord's acceptance of less than the correct amount of Rent shall be considered a payment on account of the earliest Rent due. No endorsement or statement on a check or letter accompanying a check or payment shall be considered an accord and satisfaction, and either party may accept the check or payment without prejudice to that party's right to recover the balance or pursue other available remedies. Tenant's covenant to pay Rent is independent of every other covenant in this Lease, except to the extent of any offset or deduction right of Tenant under this Lease.

B.Payment of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Expenses.  Commencing on the date that Tenant commences payment of Base Rent, Tenant shall pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the total amount of Expenses (defined in Section IV.C.); provided however, that the Controllable Expenses included in the calculation of Expenses for each year after the first Lease Year shall be limited to four percent (4%) of the Controllable Expenses used to calculate the Expenses in the prior Lease Year. "Controllable Expenses" shall mean all Expenses other than Taxes. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a good faith estimate of the total amount of Expenses for each calendar year during the Term. On or before the first day of each month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly installment equal to one-twelfth of Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Landlord's estimate of the total amount of Expenses. If Landlord determines that its good faith estimate was incorrect, Landlord may provide Tenant with a revised estimate (however, this shall occur no more than two (2) times per calendar year). After its receipt of the revised estimate, Tenant's monthly payments shall be based upon the revised estimate. If Landlord does not provide Tenant with an estimate of the total amount of Expenses by January 1 of a calendar year, Tenant shall continue to pay monthly installments based on the previous year's estimate until Landlord provides Tenant with the new estimate. Upon delivery of the new estimate, an adjustment shall be made for any month for which Tenant paid monthly installments based on the previous year's estimate. Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within thirty (30) days after receipt of the new estimate. Any overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant within thirty (30) days or credited against the next due future installment(s) of Rent.

As soon as is practical following the end of each calendar year (but no later than June 30th), Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement of the actual amount of Expenses for the prior calendar year and Tenant's Pro Rata Share of the actual amount of Expenses for the prior calendar year. If the estimated amount of Expenses for the prior calendar year is more than the actual amount of Expenses for the prior calendar year, Landlord shall apply any overpayment by Tenant against Rent due or next becoming due, provided if the Term expires before the determination of the overpayment, Landlord shall refund any overpayment to Tenant after first deducting the amount of Rent due within thirty (30) days. If the estimated amount of Expenses for the prior calendar year is less than the actual amount of Expenses for such prior year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the statement of Expenses, any underpayment for the prior calendar year. Subject to any matters outside of Landlord's control (such as any government or municipality with taxing authority failing to provide tax assessments), Landlord shall not be permitted to charge Tenant for any additional Expenses for any reconciliations performed more than two (2) years after the end of a calendar year.

C.Expenses Defined. "Expenses"  means  all  costs  and  expenses  incurred  by Landlord in  each  calendar  year  in  connection  with  operating,  maintaining, repairing and managing the Building and the Property, including, but not limited to:

1.Labor costs, including, wages, salaries, social security and employment taxes, medical and other types of insurance, uniforms, training, and retirement and pension plans.

2.Management fees, the cost of equipping and maintaining a management office, accounting and bookkeeping services, reasonable legal fees not attributable to leasing or collection activity, and other administrative costs. Landlord, by itself  or through  an  affiliate,  shall  have the  right  to directly perform or provide any services under this Lease 

5

(including management services), provided that the cost of any such services shall not exceed the cost that would have been incurred had Landlord entered into an arms­ length contract for such services with an unaffiliated entity of comparable skill and experience.

3.Costs incurred by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section IX hereof.

4.The cost of services, including amounts paid to service providers and the rental and purchase cost of parts, supplies, tools and equipment.

6.Electrical Costs (defined below) and charges for water, gas, steam and sewer, but excluding those charges for which Landlord is reimbursed by tenants. "Electrical Costs" means: (a) charges paid by Landlord for electricity; (b) costs incurred in connection with an energy management program for the Property; and (c) if and to the extent permitted by Law, a fee for the services provided by Landlord in connection with the selection of utility companies and the negotiation and administration of contracts for electricity, provided that such fee shall not exceed 50% of any savings obtained by Landlord. Electrical Costs shall be adjusted as follows: (i) amounts received by Landlord as reimbursement for above standard electrical consumption shall be deducted from Electrical Costs; (ii) the cost of electricity incurred to provide overtime HVAC to specific tenants (as reasonably estimated by Landlord) shall be deducted from Electrical Costs; and (iii) if Tenant is billed directly for the cost of building standard electricity to the Premises as a separate charge in addition to Base Rent, the cost of electricity to individual tenant spaces in the Building shall be deducted from Electrical Costs.

7.The amortized cost of capital improvements (as  distinguished  from replacement  parts  or  components installed  in  the  ordinary  course  of business)  made to  the  Property  (i) for  the  primary  purpose  of  reducing Expenses (limited  to the extent of the reasonably  anticipated  cost savings) or (ii) required to comply with laws first enacted or enforced after the Effective Date.  The cost of capital improvements shall  be amortized by  Landlord  over  the  reasonable  useful  life  of  the  improvement. The amortized cost of capital improvements may, at Landlord's option, include actual or imputed interest at the rate that Landlord would reasonably be required to pay to finance the cost of the capital improvement.

8.Taxes (as defined below).

9.Security costs and expenses for the Property.

10.Any amounts charged to the Building under any recorded declaration or similar instrument as of the Effective Date.

Costs  associated  with  the  operation of  the business  of  the partnership or entity which constitutes the Landlord include costs of partnership accounting and legal matters, costs of defending any lawsuits with any mortgagee (except as the actions of the Tenant may be in issue), costs of selling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating any of the Landlord's interest in  the  Property,  and  costs  incurred  in  connection  with  any  disputes  between Landlord  and  its  employees,  between  Landlord  and  Property  management,  or between  Landlord  and  other  tenants or  occupants, and  Landlord's  general corporate overhead and general administrative expenses relating to the partnership or entity (as opposed to the operation of the Property); (Q) the wages and benefits of any employee who does not devote substantially all of his or her employed  time to the  Property unless such wages  and benefits  are prorated to reflect time spent on operating and managing the  Property vis-a-vis time  spent on matters unrelated to operating and managing the Property; (R) amounts paid as  ground  rental  for  the  Real  Property  by the  Landlord;  (S)  costs,  other  than those  incurred  in  ordinary  maintenance  and  repair,  for  sculpture,  paintings, fountains or other objects of art; (T) any costs expressly excluded from Expenses elsewhere  in this  Lease; (U) costs arising from  Landlord's  charitable or political contributions;  (V) any gifts provided to any entity whatsoever,  including, but not limited to,  Tenant,  other  tenants,  employees,  vendors,  contractors,  prospective tenants  and agents;  (W) the  cost  of  any  magazine,  newspaper,  trade  or other subscriptions; (X) any costs covered by any warranty, rebate, guarantee, service contract  or insurance which are  actually  collected  by Landlord (which shall not prohibit  Landlord from  passing through the costs of any such service contract  if otherwise  includable  in  Expenses);  (Y)  tax  penalties  incurred  as  a  result  of Landlord's negligence, inability or unwillingness to make payments or file returns when due; (Z) all items and services for which Tenant or any other tenant in the Building  reimburses  Landlord  directly  (and  not  as  part of  its  pro  rata  share  of Expenses) or which Landlord provides selectively to one or more tenants  (other than  Tenant);  (AA)  costs  incurred  to  comply  with  Hazardous  Materials  Laws relating to  Hazardous  Materials which were  in existence in the  Building prior to the date of delivery of possession of the Premises and was of such a nature that a federal, State or municipal governmental authority, if it had then had knowledge of  the presence of  such hazardous material  (in  the  state, and  under  the conditions that such Hazardous Material then existed in the Building) would have then required the  removal  or other  remedial or containment action with respect thereto; (BB)  rent  for  any  office  space  occupied  by  Building  management personnel to the extent the size or rental rate of such office space exceeds the size  or  fair  market rental  value  of  office  space  occupied  by  management personnel of comparable buildings in the vicinity of the Building, with adjustment where appropriate for the size of the applicable project; and (CC) costs incurred by  Landlord  in  performing  its  obligations  under  this  Lease  which  are  to  be performed at Landlord's sole cost and expense.

If Landlord incurs Expenses for the Property together with one or more other buildings or properties, whether pursuant to a reciprocal easement agreement, common area agreement or otherwise that is effective and recorded as of the Effective Date, the shared costs and expenses shall be equitably prorated and apportioned between the Property and the other buildings or properties. Expenses shall be determined as if the Building is 100% occupied and Landlord had been supplying services to 100% of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building during that calendar year. The extrapolation of Expenses under this Section shall be performed by appropriately adjusting the cost of those components of Expenses that are impacted by changes in the occupancy of the Building.

D.Taxes Defined. "Taxes"  shall  mean: (1)  all  real  estate  taxes and  other assessments on  the  Building  and/or  Property,  including,  but not  limited to, assessments for special improvement districts and building improvement districts, taxes and assessments levied in substitution or  supplementation in whole or in part of any such taxes and assessments and the Property's share of any real estate taxes and assessments under any reciprocal easement agreement, common area agreement or similar agreement as to the Property; (2) all personal property taxes for property that is owned by Landlord and used in connection with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Property; and (3) all reasonable costs and fees incurred in connection with seeking reductions in any tax liabilities described in (1) and (2), including, without limitation, any costs incurred by Landlord for compliance, review and appeal of tax liabilities. Taxes shall not include any income, capital levy, franchise, capital stock, gift, estate or inheritance tax. If an assessment is payable in installments, Taxes for the year shall include the amount of the installment and any interest due and payable during that year. For all other real estate taxes, Taxes for that year shall, at Landlord's election, include either the amount accrued, assessed or otherwise imposed for the year or the amount due and payable for that year, provided that Landlord's election shall be applied consistently throughout the Term.  If a change in Taxes is obtained for any year of the Term, then Taxes for that year will be retroactively adjusted and Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit, if any, based on the adjustment. Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall have the right to contest the Taxes for the Premises with the applicable governing authorities if landlord provides prior written consent, which consent may be withheld only if Landlord contests the Taxes for the Premises. Landlord shall provide copies of all correspondence it receives regarding taxed/assessed values and appeal periods. Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant with respect to Tenant contesting the Taxes if permitted under this Lease.

E.Review Rights. If Tenant  desires  to  contest  any  calculation  by  Landlord  of Expenses or the amount of any Expenses payable by Tenant, Tenant must give Landlord a written notice (an "Audit Notice") stating that Tenant intends to review Landlord's  books and  records  regarding Expenses. The Audit  Notice must be received  by Landlord within one (1) year  after the  date of receipt by Tenant  of Landlord's  notice  of  the  estimate  of  Tenant's  Pro  Rate  Share  of  Expenses  or calendar year reconciliation, as set forth in Section IV.B above. If Tenant fails to give Landlord such an Audit Notice within such time, Tenant shall be deemed to have  waived  and  released  any  and  all  rights it  may  have  to contest  the calculation  and  amount  of  such  Expenses. Promptly  after  receiving any  such Audit Notice from Tenant, Landlord shall make its books and records available to Tenant  and  its  accountants  for  review  at  the  Building,  its  office  within  Clark County or the office of its property manager within Clark County. Following such review, if Tenant disputes the Expenses as set forth in the applicable statement, Landlord shall meet with Tenant and both Tenant and Landlord shall attempt in good faith to reconcile the matter. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to resolve the dispute within a reasonable time, a binding final determination shall be made by  an  independent  auditor  (hired  on  a  non-contingency  basis)  selected  by Landlord and reasonably approved  by Tenant. The cost of Tenant's  audit shall be paid for by Tenant  unless the investigation and analysis discloses a material overcharge  of Tenant  (i.e., five  percent (5%) or more), in which event  Landlord shall  bear  the  cost  of  the  audit. If  the  report  discloses  that  the  amount  or calculation  used  by Landlord  was  incorrect,  Landlord  shall  provide  a  credit  to Tenant  for  future  Expenses  payable  by  Tenant  equal  to  the  amount  of  any overpayment  paid by Tenant  during the Lease year to which Tenant's  Expenses relates or Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment, whichever may be applicable. Notwithstanding the pendency of any dispute hereunder, Tenant shall continue to pay Tenant's Pro Rata Share of Excess Expense amounts based upon Landlord's determination and calculation or until such calculation or amount has been established hereunder to be  incorrect.

V.    Compliance with Laws; Use.

A.Tenant’s Obligations. The Premises shall be used only for the Permitted Use and for no other use whatsoever. Tenant shall not use or permit the use of the Premises for  any  purpose which is  illegal, dangerous  to  persons or property or which, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, unreasonably disturbs any other tenants of  the  Building  or  interferes  with  the  operation  of  the  Building. Tenant shall comply with all Laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, regarding the operation of Tenant's business and the use, condition, configuration and occupancy of the Premises.  Tenant shall not  cause or permit  the use, generation,  storage  or  disposal  in  or  about  the  Property  of  any  Hazardous Material except  in the  ordinary course of business in compliance  with  all Laws, unless Tenant shall  have  received Landlord's prior  written  consent,  which consent  Landlord  may  withhold  or  at  any  time  revoke  at  its  sole  discretion. Tenant shall keep the Premises clean to prevent mold and shall remove standing water. If  Tenant  becomes  aware  of  any  mold  growth,  Tenant  shall  promptly notify Landlord in writing.  Tenant, within ten (10) days after receipt, shall provide Landlord with  copies  of any notices  it  receives  regarding a violation or  alleged violation  of  any  Laws  in connection with  its  use of the  Property. Tenant  shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Building attached as Exhibit B and such  other  reasonable rules and  regulations adopted  by Landlord from  time to time,  provided  such  newly  adopted  rules  and  regulations  do  not  interfere  with Tenant's  use and rights under this ease or increase the monetary obligations of Tenant  hereunder. Tenant shall also comply with and observe any recorded restrictive covenants applicable to the Property as of the Effective Date.  Tenant shall also cause its agents, contractors, subcontractors, employees, customers, and subtenants to comply with all rules and regulations of the Building.  Landlord shall not discriminate against Tenant in Landlord's enforcement of the rules and regulations. Prior  to  Landlord  recording  any  documents  against  the  Property which would materially and adversely affect Tenant's  use and operations at the Property and/or Tenant's  rights and obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall obtain Tenant's prior written consent.

B.Landlord's Obligations. Landlord  shall maintain and  operate  the  Building and Common Area in  accordance with all  applicable Laws, including,  without limitation  Laws  under  the  American  with  Disabilities  Act  and  Laws  related  to Hazardous Materials, except to the extent such compliance with Laws is Tenant's obligation pursuant to this Lease.  Landlord agrees that if: (i) at any time or times any public authorities having jurisdiction shall complain that the Common Areas or portion of the  Building for  which Landlord is responsible shall not have been constructed or shall not be operated in compliance with any applicable Law and shall  request  compliance;  (ii) failure  to  comply  was  not  caused  by  or  through Tenant;  and (iii) such failure  to comply shall materially and adversely affect the use of the Premises by Tenant or materially and adversely affect any other rights of Tenant  under this ease or impose any obligation upon Tenant  not contained in this Lease, then Landlord shall, upon receipt of  notice  of  such complaint, cause such repairs, alterations or other work to be done or action to be taken so as to bring about the compliance requested. Landlord shall not transport, use, store, maintain, generate, manufacture, handle, dispose, release or discharge any Hazardous Materials upon or about the Property, or permit Landlord's employees, agents and contractors, to engage in such activities upon or about Property. However, the foregoing provisions shall not prohibit the transportation to and from, and use, storage, maintenance and handling within, the Property of substances customarily used in the ordinary course of business for similar buildings in compliance with all Laws.

VI.    Intentionally Omitted.

VII.    Signs.

Tenant shall have the right to place and maintain signage on the exterior of the Premises and Building.  So long as Tenant is the sole occupant of the Building, Tenant shall have the sole rights  to  any  monument  or  pylon  signs  for  the  Building,  if  any. In  the  event  Tenant  is  the majority tenant of the Building and no monument or pylon signs exist, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost,  shall  have  the  right  to  construct monument  and/or  pylon  signs  and  to  place  other reasonable prominent  identification signage  in locations  mutually determined by Landlord and Tenant.  The size, type and location of all signage shall be subject to the prior written consent of Landlord, which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Tenant acknowledges  that  if  it  is  not  the  sole  Tenant  in the  Building,  that  other  tenants  may  have reasonable monument signage and/or exterior Building signage.  All signage shall comply with recorded declarations or restrictions and with any sign criteria for the Hughes Airport Center in existence as of the date of this Lease.  Any signage approved by Landlord shall be installed and maintained at Tenant's  sole cost  and  expense;  provided,  however,  that  Tenant  may use the Tenant  Allowance  for  the  initial  installation  of  such  signage,  subject  to  the  requirements  for disbursement  set  forth  herein. All signage shall comply with applicable state, municipal and county law and code, and with any recorded title encumbrances. Tenant further  agrees not to install  any  exterior  lighting  other  than  lighting  associated  with  signage,  amplifiers  or  similar devices  or  use  in or  about  the  Premises,  such as  flashing lights,  searchlights,  loudspeakers, phonographs or radio broadcasts. Tenant shall remove all signs upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and shall promptly repair any damage caused by such removal.

VIII.    Leasehold Improvements.

All improvements permanently affixed to the Premises or otherwise installed using the Tenant Improvement Allowance (collectively, "Leasehold Improvements") shall be owned by Landlord and shall remain upon the Premises after expiration of the Lease without compensation to Tenant, and Tenant shall have no obligation to remove or demolish any Leasehold Improvements at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease.

IX.    Repairs and Alterations.

A.    Tenant's Repair Obligations. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly perform all maintenance and repairs to the Premises that are not Landlord's express responsibility under this Lease, and shall keep the Premises in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and in accordance with Law. Tenant's  repair obligations  include, without limitation, repairs to: (1)  floor covering; (2) interior partitions; (3) doors; (4) the interior side of demising walls;(5)  electronic,  phone  and  data  cabling  and  related  equipment  (collectively, "Cable") that is installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant and located in the Premises or other portions of the  Building; (6) supplemental air conditioning units, emergency  generators,  private showers and kitchens,  including hot water heaters,  plumbing,  and  similar  facilities  serving  Tenant  exclusively;  and  (7) Alterations  (as  defined  below)  performed  by  contractors  retained  by  Tenant, including related  HVAC balancing. All work shall be performed in accordance with the rules and procedures described in Section IX.C. below.  If Tenant fails to commence and diligently pursue any repairs to the Premises for which Tenant is responsible for  more  than  ten  (10)  days  after  notice from  Landlord  (although notice shall  not be required if there  is an emergency),  Landlord may make the repairs,  and  Tenant  shall  pay  the  reasonable  cost  of  the  repairs  to  Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice and evidence of the cost thereof, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to  10% of the cost of the repairs.

B.    Landlord’s Repair Obligations. Landlord  shall  be  responsible to keep  and maintain in good repair and working order and make repairs to and  perform maintenance upon the following (the cost of which may be included in Expenses to the extent not excluded in Section IV.C.): (1) structural  elements of the Building; (2) mechanical (including HVAC), electrical,  lighting, plumbing and fire/life safety systems serving the Building in general; (3) Common Areas; (4) the roof of the Building; (5) exterior windows of the  Building; and (6) elevators serving the Building. Landlord shall promptly make repairs (considering the nature and urgency of the repair) for which Landlord is responsible. If the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, is impaired or made untenantable for a period in excess of four (4) consecutive days after notice as a result of Landlord's failure to fulfill its obligations in this Section, then Tenant shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on the 4th consecutive day of such failure after notice and ending on the day the Premises are again not impaired or tenantable. If the entire Premises has not been rendered impaired or untenantable by the service failure, the amount of abatement that Tenant is entitled to receive shall be prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered impaired or untenantable. In no event, however, shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, including the theft of Tenant's Property (defined in Article XV), arising out of or in connection with the failure of any security services, personnel or equipment, except to the extent caused by Landlord's negligence or willful misconduct. Landlord shall be obligated to maintain the Common Areas in a good condition and repair. If Tenant is the majority tenant of the Building and Landlord fails to commence and diligently pursue any repairs to the Building and the Common Areas for which Landlord is responsible for more than ten (10) days after notice from Tenant (although notice shall not be required if there is an emergency), Tenant may make the repairs, and Landlord shall pay the 

9

reasonable cost of the repairs to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice and evidence of the cost thereof, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to 10% of the cost of the repairs, and Tenant may offset any amounts due hereunder and which are not timely paid against the next installment of Rent.

C.    Alterations. Tenant shall not make alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises or install any Cable in the Premises or other portions of the Building (collectively referred to as "Alterations") without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. However, Landlord's consent shall not be required for any Alteration that satisfies all of the following criteria (a "Cosmetic Alteration"): (1)will  not  affect  the  systems  or  structure  of  the  Building;  and  (2) does  not require work  to  be performed inside the walls  (i.e., work  requiring alterations to the walls to get behind the surface thereof) or above the ceiling of the Premises. However,  even  though  consent  is  not  required,  the  performance  of  Cosmetic Alterations shall be subject to all the other provisions of this Section IX.C, except that Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord's approval for any plans and specifications thereof.  Prior to starting work, Tenant  shall furnish  Landlord with plans and specifications reasonably acceptable to Landlord; names of contractors  reasonably  acceptable  to  Landlord  (provided  that  Landlord  may designate  specific  contractors  with  respect  to  Building  systems); copies  of contracts; necessary permits and approvals;  evidence of contractor's and subcontractor's insurance  in  amounts  required  under  Section  XV. Material changes to the plans and specifications must also be submitted to Landlord for its approval.  Alterations shall be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner using  materials  of  a  quality  that  is  at  least  equal  to  the  quality  reasonably designated by Landlord as the minimum standard for the Building.  Landlord may designate reasonable rules,  regulations and procedures  for the  performance of work  in the  Building and,  if Tenant is not the  sole tenant  of the  Building, shall have the  right to designate the time when Alterations may be performed to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid disruption to the occupants of the Building. Upon completion, Tenant shall furnish “as-built” plans (except for Cosmetic Alterations), completion affidavits, full and final waivers of lien and receipted bills covering all labor and materials.  Tenant shall assure that the Alterations comply with all insurance requirements set forth in this Lease and Laws. Landlord's approval  of  an  Alteration  shall  not  be  a  representation  by  Landlord  that  the Alteration  complies with  applicable Laws  or will  be adequate  for Tenant's  use. Landlord shall not charge Tenant a mark-up or supervisory fee for any Alterations. In no event shall Tenant be required to comply with NRS 108 with respect  to  providing  security,  bonds  or  a  construction  control  account  for  any Alterations or other Tenant work.

X.    Utilities; Janitorial Service.

Tenant shall contract and pay directly for separately metered electricity and janitorial services for the Premises, and Tenant shall have control of the HVAC and power for the Premises, and power shall be separately metered to the Premises. Tenant shall promptly pay before delinquency all charges for electricity and other extraordinary services furnished to the Premises. Except to the extent caused by Landlord's negligence or willful misconduct, Landlord shall not be liable for any interruptions or curtailment in utility services and any such interruption or curtailment shall not constitute a termination of this Lease or eviction of Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, is made untenantable for a period in excess of four (4) consecutive days after notice as a result of Landlord's failure to provide utilities to the Premises to the extent required under this Lease, then Tenant,  as its  sole remedy,  shall be entitled to receive an abatement  of Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on the fourth  consecutive day of such failure  after notice and ending on the day the Premises are again tenantable. If the entire Premises has not been rendered untenantable by the service failure, the amount of abatement that Tenant is entitled to receive shall be prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant. Tenant shall not at any time overburden or exceed the capacity of the mains, feeders, ducts, conduits or other facilities by which such utilities are supplied to, distributed in or serve the Premises and Tenant shall comply with the rules, regulations and requirements of all governmental  and  quasi-governmental  agencies  with respect thereto.

XI.    Entry by Landlord.

Landlord, its agents, contractors and representatives may enter the Premises as reasonably necessary to inspect or show the Premises, to clean and make repairs, alterations or additions to the Premises (to the extent a Landlord right or obligation under this Lease), and to conduct or facilitate repairs, alterations or additions to any portion of the Building, including other tenants' premises (to the extent permitted under this Lease). Except in emergencies or to provide janitorial, if any, and other Building services after Normal Business Hours, Landlord shall provide Tenant with reasonable prior notice of entry into the Premises, which may be given orally. If necessary for the protection and safety of Tenant and its employees, upon 48 hours prior notice (or immediately in the event of an emergency), Landlord shall have the right to temporarily close all or a portion of the Premises to perform repairs, alterations and additions, but it shall diligently pursue any such repair and immediately open such closed Premises upon final repair. However, except in emergencies, Landlord will not close the Premises if the work can reasonably be completed on weekends and after Normal Business Hours. Entry by Landlord shall not constitute constructive eviction or entitle Tenant to an abatement or reduction of Rent; provided, however, Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's operations at the Premises. If as a result of Landlord's entry Tenant is unable to occupy a material portion of the Premises for a period in excess of 

10

three (3) consecutive days after notice, then Tenant shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Rent payable hereunder prorated based upon the percentage of the Premises rendered untenantable until the Premises are again tenantable.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, any entry into the Premises, whether by Landlord or any third parties, shall be subject to Tenant's security requirements (which security requirements shall be no more burdensome than Tenant's security requirements for other third party visitors or for Tenant's other buildings in the vicinity of the Property), and must be coordinated with Tenant's security personnel upon reasonable prior notice. Tenant shall provide Landlord access to the Premises for the purposes stated in this Section XI within a reasonable period after notice from Landlord if Landlord has complied with all of the security requirements to be complied with on its part. Further, Tenant may designate limited areas of the Premises as "Secured Areas"; provided that Tenant shall reasonably provide a Tenant's representative to accompany any Landlord representative requiring access to the Secured Areas upon reasonable notice. In connection with the foregoing, Landlord shall not otherwise enter such Secured Areas except in the event of an emergency. Tenant shall have the right to install a key-card security system. In the event Tenant does not provide Landlord access to the Premises in breach of its obligations hereunder, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all actual, out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord in the performance of its obligations under this Lease resulting from Landlord's inability to access the Premises. Landlord's current property manager is Jamie Bartels of Hannay Realty Advisers ("Property Manager"). Tenant shall provide Property Manager with one key or key-card to the Premises to be used only in the event of emergencies, and then only for the purpose of the emergency. Landlord shall indemnify Tenant for any losses or liabilities resulting from the improper use of the key or key-card. Landlord shall give Tenant notice as soon as reasonably practical before or after any emergency entry. In the event that Landlord changes property managers,  Landlord shall  cause its current Property Manager to promptly return the key or key-card to Tenant, and such key or key-card will not be given to the new property manager until such person is approved by Tenant in writing, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, based on its security requirements.

XII.    Assignment and Subletting.

A.Except in connection with a Permitted Transfer (defined in Section XII.E. below) and an Affiliate Transfer (defined in Section XII.F. below), Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber any interest in this Lease or allow any third party to use any portion of the Premises (collectively or individually, a "Transfer") without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limitation, it is agreed that Landlord's consent shall not be considered unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if: (1) the proposed transferee's financial condition does not meet the criteria Landlord uses to select tenants in similar buildings having similar leasehold obligations; (2) the proposed transferee's business is not suitable for the Building considering the business of the other tenants and the Building's prestige, or would result in a violation of another tenant's rights; (3) the proposed transferee is a governmental agency or existing occupant of the Building; or (4) Tenant is in default after the expiration of the notice and cure periods in this Lease. Except in the event that Landlord has unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed its consent to a proposed transferee with a credit rating from public company credit rating agencies equal to or better than Tenant at the date of this lease or date of assignment (whichever is better), or if the Tenant or assignee is not a public company at the time of assignment, such assignee has a net worth equal to or better than Tenant at the date of this lease or date of assignment (whichever is better), Tenant shall not be entitled to receive monetary damages based upon a claim that Landlord unreasonably withheld its consent to a proposed Transfer and Tenant's sole remedy shall be an action to enforce any such provision through specific performance, injunction, declaratory judgment or such other equitable relief. Any attempted Transfer in violation of this Article shall, at Landlord's option, be void. Consent by Landlord to one or more Transfer(s) shall not operate as a waiver of Landlord's rights to approve any subsequent Transfers. In no event shall any Transfer, Permitted Transfer or Affiliate Transfer release or relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Lease.

B.As part of its request for Landlord's consent to a Transfer, Tenant shall provide Landlord with financial statements for the proposed transferee, a complete copy of the proposed assignment, sublease and other contractual documents and such other information as Landlord may reasonably request. Landlord shall, by written notice to Tenant within seven (7) days of its receipt of the required information and documentation, (1) consent to the Transfer by the execution of a consent agreement in a form reasonably designated by Landlord; or (2) reasonably refuse to consent to the Transfer within reasons therefor set forth in writing. Whether or not Landlord grants consent, Tenant shall pay One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) towards Landlord's review and processing expenses, as well as any reasonable legal fees incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, not to exceed $1,000.00 per request.

C.If Tenant is in Monetary Default (defined in Section XIX.A below), Landlord may require that all sublease payments be made directly to Landlord, in which case Tenant shall receive a credit against Rent in the amount of any payments received (less Landlord's share of any excess).

11

D.Except as provided below with respect to a Permitted Transfer and an Affiliate Transfer, if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or similar entity, and if the entity which owns or controls a majority of the voting shares/rights at any time changes for any reason (including but not limited to a merger, consolidation or reorganization), such change of ownership or control shall constitute a Transfer. The foregoing shall not apply so long as Tenant is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a recognized security exchange, or if at least 50% of its voting stock is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed.

E.Tenant may assign or transfer any interest under this Lease or sublease all or a portion of the Premises to a successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization without the consent of Landlord, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (a "Permitted Transfer''): (1) Tenant is not in default under this Lease, beyond applicable cure periods; (2) Tenant's successor shall own all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant; (3) Tenant's successor's financial condition meets the criteria Landlord uses to select tenants in similar buildings having similar leasehold obligations; (4) the Permitted Use does not change; and (5) Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give Landlord written notice at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization. Tenant's notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied. If requested by Landlord, Tenant's successor shall sign a commercially reasonable form of assumption agreement.

F.Tenant may assign, transfer or sublease any interest under this Lease or the Premises to any parent corporation, subsidiary of which it owns (directly or indirectly) a majority interest or over which it exercises managing control or affiliate entity without Landlord's prior consent (an "Affiliate Transfer"). An "affiliate" shall mean an entity under common ownership or control with Tenant or its subsidiaries.

G.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord will not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition consent to Tenant encumbering this Lease pursuant to a leasehold mortgage or deed of trust; provided, however that no such encumbrance nor a foreclosure of Tenant's leasehold interest under the Lease shall release or relieve Tenant from any obligation under this Lease or impair Landlord rights under this Lease. Landlord agrees to reasonably cooperate with Tenant and its lender with respect to executing any documents requested by Tenant and its lender that do not decrease Landlord's rights or increase Landlord's costs or obligations under this Lease.\

H.Landlord shall have no recapture rights under this Lease with respect to any assignment, sublease, encumbrance or transfer of this Lease by Tenant, and Tenant shall retain any additional rent, assignment or transfer profits.

XIII.    Liens. 

Tenant shall not permit mechanic's or other liens to be placed upon the Property, Premises or Tenant's leasehold interest in connection with any work or service done or purportedly done by or for benefit of Tenant. If a lien is so placed, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of notice from Landlord of the filing of the lien, fully discharge the lien by settling the claim which resulted in the lien or by bonding or insuring over the lien in the manner prescribed by the applicable lien Law. If Tenant fails to discharge the lien, in accordance with the preceding sentence, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may bond or insure over the lien or otherwise discharge the lien. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any amount paid by Landlord to bond or insure over the lien or discharge the lien, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees (if and to the extent permitted by Law) within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord. Landlord waives all contractual, statutory and constitutional liens held by Landlord on Tenant's personal property, goods, equipment, inventory, furnishings, chattels, accounts and assets ("Tenant's Property") to secure the obligations of Tenant under this Lease.

Tenant shall insure itself against such losses under Article XV below.

XV.    Insurance.

A.Liability/Property Insurance.  Tenant shall maintain at its sole expense during the term  hereof,  commercial general  liability  insurance with  broad form  contractual liability coverage  and with  coverage  limits  of  not  less  than  One  Million  Dollars ($1,000,000.00)  per  occurrence  and  a  general  aggregate  limit  of  at  least  Two Million  Dollars  ($2,000,000.00)  and  Tenant  shall  provide,  in  addition,  excess liability insurance on a following form basis, with overall excess limits of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00).  Tenant shall also keep in force special form also known as "all risk" perils coverage insurance for the full  replacement  value of  Tenant's  improvements  and  Tenant's  Property,  including, but not  limited  to, trade fixtures, furnishings and other personal property.  All such policies shall be written by companies reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and Tenant will cause such insurance policies to name (i) Landlord as additional insured for the liability insurance  required  hereunder,  (ii) at  Landlord's  election,  Landlord's  property manager as designated  by Landlord from time to time ("Property  Manager")  as additional insured for the liability insurance required hereunder and (iii) Landlord as a loss payee with respect to Tenant's improvements.  All such insurance shall be written so as to provide that the insurer waives all right of recovery by way of subrogation  against  Landlord  or  Landlord's  property  manager  (as  designated from time to time) in connection with any loss or damage covered by the policy. In addition, Tenant shall keep in force Worker's Compensation or similar insurance to the extent required by law. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deliver certificates of insurance evidencing the insurance carried hereunder to Landlord. Should Tenant fail to effect the insurance called for herein Landlord may, at its sole option, procure said insurance and pay the requisite premiums, in which event, Tenant shall pay all sums so expended to Landlord as Additional Rent following invoice and promptly upon demand. Tenant shall furnish to Landlord 30 days' prior written notice to Landlord before the policy, policies or insurance program structure in question shall be materially altered or cancelled. High deductibles, self-insured retentions, or any form of "self-insurance", or "captive insurance" may not be used to fulfill this requirement, and no deductible or similar retention will be accepted for any third party coverage; including, without limitation, workers compensation, commercial general liability or auto liability; provided, however, that Tenant may use a self-insured retention or deductible in the amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) for any policy required under this Lease. Tenant's insurance shall be primary, and any insurance maintained by Landlord or any other additional insureds hereunder shall be excess and noncontributory. After the initial Term of this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to reasonably increase the amount or expand the scope of insurance to be maintained by Tenant hereunder from time to time.

B.Contractor/Subcontractor’s Insurance. Tenant's  contractors  and subcontractors shall  maintain  the  following  insurance  during  any  period  in  which  they  are performing Tenant  Improvements  or Alterations  on the  Property:  (i) commercial general liability insurance with broad form contractual liability coverage, products coverage and completed operation coverage with coverage limits of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00)  per occurrence and a general aggregate limit of at least Two  Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00),  and (ii) Worker's  Compensation or similar insurance to the extent required by law.  At any time that Tenant or its contractors are performing any Tenant Improvements or Alterations that constitute new construction or structural alterations to the Building (including any movement of load bearing walls), Tenant shall maintain builder's risk insurance in such amounts as are reasonably acceptable to Landlord based on the scope of the work.

C.Increase in Insurance Premium. Tenant will not do or suffer to be done, or keep or suffer to be kept, anything in, upon or about the Premises which will violate Landlord's policies of hazard or liability insurance or otherwise violate any other insurance policy (ies) carried by Landlord on the Premises or on the Property or which will prevent Landlord from procuring such policies in companies acceptable to Landlord.  If anything done, permitted to be done or suffered by Tenant to be kept in, upon or about the Premises shall cause the premium or rate of fire or other insurance on the Premises or on other property of Landlord 

13

or of others within the Building to be increased beyond the minimum rate from time to time applicable to the Premises or to any such other property for the use or uses made thereof, Tenant will pay, as Additional Rent, the amount of any such increase promptly upon Landlord's demand. Landlord hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that general office use of the Premises will not increase Landlord's insurance premiums.

D.Landlord's Insurance Requirements. Landlord shall carry and maintain property insurance  insuring  the  Building  against  damage  or  destruction  due  to  risks including fire, vandalism  and malicious  mischief in an amount  not less than the replacement cost of the Buildings as the same may change from time to time (the "Property  Insurance  Coverage"). Such  policies  will  insure  against  all  risks  of direct physical loss or  damage subject to customary exclusions and  any reasonable amounts  of coverage. Landlord shall carry and maintain commercial general liability and excess umbrella liability insurance for bodily injury and property damage however occasioned in, on or about the Buildings and the Common Area, with  limits  $1,000,000  per  occurrence  and  $2,000,000  aggregate,  with  excess umbrella liability limits of $3,000,000 and shall name the following as an additional insured thereunder. Tenant, its parent and its subsidiaries.

XVI.    Subrogation.

Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and shall cause their respective insurance carriers to waive any and all rights of recovery, claim, action or causes of action against the other and their respective trustees, principals, shareholders, beneficiaries, partners, officers, directors, agents, and employees, for any loss or damage that may occur to Landlord or Tenant or any party claiming by, through or under Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, with respect to Tenant's Property, the Building, the Premises, any additions or improvements to the Building or Premises, or any contents thereof, including all rights of recovery, claims, actions or causes of action arising out of the negligence of Landlord or any Landlord Related Parties or the negligence of Tenant or any Tenant Related Parties, which loss or damage is (or would have been, had the insurance required by this Lease been carried) covered by insurance.

XVII.    Casualty Damage.

A.If all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord in writing. During any period of time that all or a material portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable as a result of a fire or other casualty, the Rent shall abate for the portion of the Premises that is untenantable and not used by Tenant. Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if: (1) the Building shall be damaged so that, in Landlord's reasonable judgment, substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall be required (whether or not the Premises has been damaged); (2) Landlord is not permitted by Law to rebuild the Building in substantially the same form as existed before the fire or casualty; (3) the Premises have been materially damaged and there is less than 12 months of the Term remaining on the date of the casualty; (4) any Mortgagee with a first priority Mortgage requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to the payment of the Mortgage debt pursuant to terms of the Mortgage that are commercially reasonable for loans for similar types of properties; (5) a material uninsured loss to the Building occurs; or (6) any restoration would be considered "construction" with respect to the Premises within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.856. Landlord or Tenant may exercise its right to terminate this Lease by notifying the other party in writing within 60 days after the date of the casualty. If this Lease does not terminate, Landlord shall commence and proceed with reasonable diligence to repair and restore the Building and the Leasehold Improvements (excluding any Alterations that were performed by Tenant in violation of this Lease). Landlord shall not be liable for any loss or damage to Tenant's Property or to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from the fire or other casualty or from the repair and restoration of the damage, however subject to the abatement of Rent as set forth herein. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive the provisions of any Law relating to the matters addressed in this Article, and agree that their respective rights for damage to or destruction of the Premises shall be those specifically provided in this Lease.

B.If all or any portion of the Premises shall be made untenantable by fire or other casualty,  and  neither  Landlord  nor Tenant  has  elected to terminate  this  Lease pursuant to  Section XVII.A above,  Landlord shall, with  reasonable promptness, cause an architect or general contractor selected by Landlord to provide Landlord and Tenant with a written estimate of the amount of time required to substantially complete  the  repair  and  restoration  of  the  Premises  and  make  the  Premises tenantable again,  using standard  working methods  ("Completion  Estimate"). If the Completion Estimate indicates that the Premises cannot be made tenantable within 270  days  from  the  date  of  the  casualty,  then  regardless  of  anything  in Section XVII.A above to the contrary, either party shall have the right to terminate this  Lease  by giving written  notice to  the  other  of such  election within ten (10) Business  Days  after  receipt  of  the  Completion  Estimate.  Further, in the event Landlord fails to complete the repair and replacement of the Premises within 300 days from the date of the casualty so that Tenant may be open and operating for business therein within such time period, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease.

14

XVIII. Condemnation.

Either party may terminate this Lease if the whole or any material part of the Premises shall be taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use under Law, by eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof (a "Taking"). Landlord shall also have the right to terminate this Lease if there is a Taking of any portion of the Building or Property which would leave the remainder of the Building unsuitable for use as an office building in a manner comparable to the Building's use prior to the Taking. In order to exercise its right to terminate the Lease, Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, must provide written notice of termination to the other within 45 days after the terminating party first receives notice of the Taking. Any such termination shall be effective as of the date the physical taking of the Premises or the portion of the Building or Property occurs. If this Lease is not terminated, the Rentable Square Footage of the Premises and Tenant's Pro Rata Share shall, if applicable, be appropriately adjusted. In addition, Rent for any portion of the Premises taken or condemned shall be abated during the unexpired Term of this Lease effective when the physical taking of the portion of the Premises occurs. All compensation awarded for a Taking, or sale proceeds, shall be the property of Landlord, any right to receive compensation or proceeds being expressly waived by Tenant. However, Tenant may file a separate claim at its sole cost and expense for Tenant's Property and Tenant's reasonable relocation expenses, provided the filing of the claim does not diminish the award which would otherwise be receivable by landlord.

XIX.    Events of Default.

Tenant shall be considered to be in default of this Lease upon the occurrence of any of the following events of default:

A .    Tenant's failure to pay when due all or any portion of the Rent, if the  failure continues for 5 Business Days after written notice to Tenant ("Monetary Default").

B.    Tenant's  failure (other  than  a  Monetary  Default)  to  comply  with  any  term, provision  or  covenant  of this  Lease  (including its  Exhibits), if the  failure  is  not cured within thirty (30) days after written  notice to Tenant. However, if Tenant's failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30)  days, Tenant shall be allowed additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so long as: (1) Tenant  commences  to  cure the failure  within thirty (30) days,  and (2) Tenant  diligently pursues a  course  of action that will cure the failure and  bring Tenant  back  into  compliance  with  the  Lease. However, if Tenant’s failure to comply creates a hazardous condition to human health, the failure must be cured promptly upon notice to Tenant.

C.    Tenant  or  any  Guarantor  becomes  insolvent,  makes  a  transfer  in  fraud  of creditors or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts when due.

In addition to the foregoing, if Landlord provides Tenant with notice of Tenant's failure to comply with any material term, provision or covenant of the Lease on 3 occasions during any 12 month period, Tenant's subsequent violation of such term, provision or covenant shall, at Landlord's option, be an incurable event of default by Tenant. Landlord shall be in default under this Lease in the event landlord fails to cure its obligations within 30 days of receipt of written notification of such failure. However, if Landlord's failure to comply cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, Landlord shall be allowed additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the failure so long as: (1) Landlord commences to cure the failure within thirty (30) days, and (2) Landlord diligently pursues a course of action that will cure the failure and bring Landlord back into compliance with the Lease. However, if Landlord's failure to comply creates a hazardous condition to human health, the failure must be cured promptly upon notice to Landlord.

XX.    Remedies.

A.    Upon any default, Landlord shall have the right without notice or demand (except as provided in Article XIX) to pursue any of its rights and remedies at Law or in equity, including any one or more of the following remedies:

1.Terminate this Lease, in which case Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises, Landlord may, in compliance with applicable Law and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel and remove Tenant, Tenant's Property and any party occupying all or any part of the Premises. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand the amount of all past due Rent and other losses and damages which Landlord suffers as a result of Tenant's default, whether by Landlord's inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise, including, without limitation, all Costs of Reletting (defined below) and any deficiency that may arise from reletting or the failure to relet the Premises. "Costs of Reletting" shall include all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in reletting or attempting to relet the Premises, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, brokerage commissions, but shall not include the cost of alterations and the value of other concessions or allowances granted to a new tenant.

15

2.    Terminate Tenant's right to  possession  of  the  Premises  and, in compliance with applicable Law, expel and remove Tenant, Tenant's Property and any parties occupying all or any part of the Premises. Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) relet all or any part of the Premises, without notice to Tenant, for a term that may be greater or less than the balance of the Term and on such conditions (which may include concessions, free rent and alterations of the Premises) and for such uses as Landlord in its absolute discretion shall determine. Landlord may collect and receive all rents and other income from the reletting. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand all past due Rent, all Costs of Reletting and any deficiency arising from the reletting or failure to relet the Premises. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for the failure to relet all or any part of the Premises or for the failure to collect any Rent. The re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises shall not be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of termination is given to Tenant.

3.    In lieu of calculating damages under Sections XX.A.1 or XX.A.2 above, Landlord  may  elect  to  receive  as  damages  the  sum  of  (a)  all Rent accrued through the date of termination of this Lease or Tenant's right to possession, and (b) an amount equal to the total Rent that Tenant would have been required to pay for the remainder of the Term discounted to present value at the Prime Rate (defined in Section XX.B. below) then in effect, minus the then present fair rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the Term, similarly discounted, after deducting all anticipated Costs of Reletting.

B.    Unless expressly provided in this Lease, the repossession or re-entering of all or any part of the Premises shall not relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations under the Lease. No right or remedy of Landlord shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy. Each right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right and remedy now or subsequently available to Landlord at Law or in equity. If  Tenant  is  in  default  (beyond  applicable  notice  and  cure  periods), Landlord shall be entitled to receive interest on any unpaid item of Rent at a rate equal to the  Prime Rate plus 4%  until cured. For purposes  hereof, the "Prime Rate" shall  be the  per annum  interest  rate  publicly  announced  as  its  prime or base rate by a federally  insured bank selected by Landlord in the state in which the  Building  is  located.  Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more remedies shall not constitute a waiver of any default. Furthermore, in the event that Landlord performs any of Tenant's obligations under this Lease as a result of a default by Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice, and evidence of cost thereof, the reasonable cost of performing such obligation, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to 10% of the cost to perform the obligation.

C.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event of a default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord hereby covenants and agrees to use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages, which reasonable efforts shall include, without limitation, using commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises upon commercially reasonable terms. Except as set forth in Article XYN with respect to a holdover of the Premises, Landlord's out of pocket costs of reletting the Premises upon an Event of Default by Tenant, or Landlord's out pocket costs payable to third parties that Landlord may be entitled to indemnification under a Tenant indemnification obligation under this Lease, landlord shall not have any right to sue, or  collect  from,  Tenant  for  any  consequential, punitive  or  incidental  damages (including,  without  limitation,  any  claims  for  lost  profits  and/or  lost  business opportunity).  Landlord shall not have any right to sue, or collect from, Tenant for any costs to renovate the Premises for any prospective tenant.

XXI.    Limitation of Liability.

TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE LIABILITY OF LANDLORD UNDER THIS LEASE OR ANY MATTER RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE OCCUPANCY OR USE OF THE PREMISES AND/OR OTHER AREAS OF THE BUILDING OR THE PROPERTY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TENANT'S ACTUAL DIRECT, BUT NOT CONSEQUENTIAL, DAMAGES THEREFOR AND SHALL BE RECOVERABLE ONLY FROM LANDLORD'S INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY, NET PROCEEDS DERIVED FROM THE SALE THEREOF, AND, INSURANCE PROCEEDS AND CONDEMNATION AWARDS. NO PERSONAL JUDGMENT SHALL LIE AGAINST LANDLORD UPON EXTINGUISHMENT OF ITS RIGHTS  IN THE PROPERTY AND ANY JUDGMENT  SO RENDERED SHALL  NOT GIVE RISE TO ANY RIGHT OF EXECUTION OR LEW AGAINST LANDLORD'S OTHER ASSETS. FOR  THE  PURPOSES  OF  THIS  PARAGRAPH  ONLY,  THE  TERM  "LANDLORD"  SHALL MEAN AND INCLUDE ALL PARTNERS OF LANDLORD (IF LANDLORD  IS A PARTNERSHIP) AND  ALL  MEMBERS  AND  MANAGERS  OF  LANDLORD  (IF  LANDLORD  IS  A LIMITED LIABILITY  COMPANY).  THE PROVISIONS ANY MORTGAGEE. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS ARE NOT INTENDED TO RELIEVE LANDLORD FROM THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS LEASE, BUT ONLY TO LIMIT THE PERSONAL LIABILITY OF LANDLORD IN CASE OF RECOVERY OF A JUDGMENT AGAINST LANDLORD.  BEFORE FILING SUIT FOR AN ALLEGED DEFAULT BY LANDLORD, TENANT SHALL GIVE LANDLORD AND THE MORTGAGEE(S) (DEFINED IN ARTICLE XXVI BELOW) WHOM TENANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED HOLD MORTGAGES (DEFINED IN ARTICLE  XXVI  BELOW)  ON  THE  PROPERTY,  BUILDING  OR  PREMISES,  NOTICE  AND REASONABLE TIME (NOT TO EXCEED THIRTY (30) DAYS, UNLESS AN EMERGENCY IN WHICH EVENT TENANT MAY  PROCEED WITH A CURE OF  SUCH DEFAULT AND LANDLORD  SHALL  REIMBURSE  TENANT  FOR ANY  COSTS  AND  EXPENSES) TO  CURE THE ALLEGED  DEFAULT.

16

XXII.    No Waiver.

Either party's failure to declare a default immediately upon its occurrence, or delay in taking action for a default shall not constitute a waiver of the default, nor shall it constitute an estoppel. Either party's failure to enforce its rights for a default shall not constitute a waiver of its rights regarding any subsequent default. Receipt by Landlord of Tenant's keys to the Premises shall not constitute an acceptance or surrender of the Premises.

XXIII.    Quiet Enjoyment.

Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold and enjoy the Premises, subject to the terms of this Lease, provided Tenant is not in default (after applicable notice and cure periods) hereunder. This covenant and all other covenants of Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only during its or their respective periods of ownership of the Building.

XXIV.     Landlord Representations.

Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the Effective Date, (i) there is no mortgage or loan encumbering the Property or Building, (ii) to Landlord's actual knowledge, Landlord has not received any written notice of any eminent domain or similar proceeding during its period of ownership which would affect all, or any portion, of the Premises or the Property, (iii) Landlord has the full right, power and authority to make this Lease and no joinder or approval of another person or entity is required with respect to Landlord's right and authority to enter into this Lease, and (iv) Landlord has provided to Tenant a recent title report and related recorded documents for the Property, a list of which is attached hereto as Exhibit G.

XXV.    Holding Over.

If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, occupancy of the Premises after the termination or expiration shall be that of a tenancy at sufferance. Tenant's occupancy of the Premises during the holdover shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Lease and Tenant shall (1) for the first three months of holdover,  pay Base  Rent in an amount  (on a per month  basis without  reduction for partial months during the holdover) equal to 125% of the sum of the Base Rent due for the period immediately preceding the holdover; and (2) for any holdover after the first three months, pay Base Rent in an amount (on a per month basis without reduction for partial months during the holdover) equal to 150% of the sum of the Base Rent due for the period immediately preceding the holdover. No holdover by Tenant or payment by Tenant after the expiration or early termination of this Lease shall be construed to extend the Term or prevent Landlord from immediate recovery of possession of the Premises by summary proceedings or otherwise. In addition to the payment of the amounts provided above, if Landlord is unable to deliver possession of the Premises to a new tenant, or to perform improvements for a new tenant, as a result of Tenant's holdover and Tenant fails to vacate the Premises within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant of Landlord's inability to deliver possession, or perform improvements, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damages, including, without limitation, consequential damages, that Landlord suffers from the holdover.

XXVI.    Subordination to Mortgages; Estoppel Certificate.

Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s), deed(s) of trust, ground lease(s) or other lien(s) now or subsequently arising upon the Premises, the Building or the  Property, and to  renewals, modifications,  refinancings and extensions thereof  (collectively referred to as a "Mortgage"). The party having the benefit of a Mortgage shall be referred to as a "Mortgagee".  This clause shall be self-operative, but upon request from a Mortgagee, Tenant shall execute a commercially reasonable subordination agreement in favor of the Mortgagee. In lieu of having the Mortgage be superior to this Lease, a Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate its Mortgage to this Lease. Notwithstanding  anything  to  the  contrary contained  in  this  Lease,  in  consideration  of,  and  as  a  condition  precedent  to,  Tenant's agreement  to  permit  its  interest  pursuant  to  this  Lease  to  be subordinated  to  any  particular future Mortgage hereafter enforced against the Building or the Property, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant  a  commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement  executed  by the  Mortgagee of such Mortgage. If requested by a successor-in-interest to all or a part of Landlord's interest in the Lease, Tenant shall, without charge, attorn to the successor-in-interest.  Landlord  and Tenant  shall  each,  within twenty  (20)  days  after  receipt  of  a  written  request  from  the  other, execute and deliver an estoppel certificate to those parties as are reasonably requested by the other (including a Mortgagee or prospective purchaser).  The estoppel certificate shall include a statement certifying that this Lease is unmodified (except as identified in the estoppel certificate) and  in full force  and effect,  describing the  dates  to which  Rent and other  charges  have been paid,  representing  that,  to  such  party's  actual  knowledge,  there  is  no  default  (or stating the nature of the  alleged default) and indicating other  matters with respect to  the  Lease that  may reasonably be requested.

17

XXVII.    Attorneys' Fees.

If either party institutes a suit against the other for violation of or to enforce any covenant or condition of this Lease, or if either party intervenes in any suit in which the other is a party to enforce or protect its interest or rights, the prevailing party shall be entitled to all of its legal costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

XXVIII.    Notice.

If a demand, request, approval, consent or notice (collectively referred to as a "notice") shall or may be given to either party by the other, the notice shall be in writing and delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested, or sent by overnight or same day courier service at the party's respective Notice Address(es) set forth in Article I, except that if Tenant has vacated the Premises (or if the Notice Address for Tenant is other than the Premises. and Tenant has vacated such address) without providing Landlord a new Notice Address, Landlord may serve notice in any manner described in this Article or in any other manner permitted by Law. Each notice shall be deemed to have been received or given on the earlier to occur of actual delivery or the date on which delivery is refused, or, if Tenant has vacated the Premises or the other Notice Address of Tenant without providing a new Notice Address, three (3) days after notice is deposited in the U.S. mail or with a courier service in the manner described above. Either party may, at any time, change its Notice Address by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner described in this Article.

XXIX.    Excepted Rights.

This Lease does not grant any rights to light or air over or about the Building.  Except as set  forth  in  this  Lease,  including  Tenant's  rights  to  install  signage,  emergency  generators, transmission  equipment,  security  devices  and  cameras,  and  access  to  the utility  rooms, Landlord  excepts  and  reserves  to  itself  the  use  of: (1)  roofs,  (2)  telephone,  electrical  and janitorial closets  (if  such  services  are  provided  by  Landlord),  (3)  equipment  rooms,  Building risers or similar areas that are used by Landlord for the provision of Building services, (4) rights to the  land and  improvements  below the floor  of the  Premises,  (5) the  improvements  and air rights above the Premises, (6) the improvements and air rights outside the demising walls of the Premises, and (7) the areas within the Premises used for the installation of utility lines and other installations  serving  occupants  of the  Building.  In Landlord's  exercise  of any of the foregoing rights reserved by Landlord and use thereof,  Landlord shall not materially interfere with Tenant's use and operations of the Premises or such utility rooms and agrees to cooperate with Tenant and allow reasonable access by utility companies and other service providers in connection with the  installation  of  reasonable  utility and  system  upgrades  upon request  of Tenant. Landlord also has the right to make such other changes to the Property and Building as Landlord deems appropriate, provided the changes do not materially affect Tenant's ability to use the Premises for the Permitted Use or increase Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. Landlord  shall also have the  right (but  not the  obligation) to temporarily close the  Building if  Landlord reasonably determines that there is an imminent danger of significant damage to the Building or of personal injury  to  Landlord's  employees  or  the  occupants  of  the  Building. The  circumstances  under which  Landlord  may  temporarily  close  the  Building  shall  include,  without  limitation,  electrical interruptions, hurricanes and civil disturbances. A good faith closure of the Building under such circumstances shall not constitute a constructive eviction nor entitle Tenant to an abatement or reduction of Rent.

XXX.    Surrender of Premises.

At  the  expiration  or  earlier  termination  of this  Lease  or  Tenant's  right  of  possession, Tenant shall remove Tenant's Property from the Premises, and quit and surrender the Premises to  Landlord,  broom  clean,  and  in  good  order,  condition  and  repair,  ordinary  wear  and  tear excepted. If Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant's Property upon the termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall be entitled (but not obligated) to remove and store Tenant's Property.  Landlord shall not be responsible for the value, preservation or safekeeping of Tenant's Property. Tenant shall pay Landlord,  upon demand,  the  expenses  and  storage  charges  incurred  for  Tenant's  Property. In  addition,  if Tenant fails  to  remove Tenant's  Property from  the  Premises  or storage, as the  case  may be, within  thirty  (30)  days  after  written  notice,  Landlord  may  deem  all  or  any  part  of  Tenant's Property to  be abandoned,  and title to Tenant's  Property shall  be deemed  to  be immediately vested in Landlord. Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any Alterations made to the Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

XXXI.    Miscellaneous.

A.This Lease and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the state in which the Building is located and Landlord and Tenant hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction and proper venue of any court located in Clark County, Nevada and any and all actions arising out of this Agreement shall be litigated in such court.

However, events of Force Majeure shall not extend any period of time for the payment of Rent or other sums payable by either party or any period of time for the written exercise of an option or right by either party.

Landlord shall pay any commission earned by Broker relating to this Lease pursuant to a separate agreement.

G.Each party hereto covenants, warrants and represents that: (1) each individual executing, attesting and/or delivering this Lease on behalf of such party is authorized to do so; (2) this Lease is binding upon it; and (3) it is duly organized and legally existing in the state of its organization and is qualified to do business in the state in which the Premises are located. If there is more than one Tenant, or if Tenant is comprised of more than one party or entity, the obligations imposed upon Tenant shall be joint and several obligations of all the parties and entities. Notices, payments and agreements given or made by, with or to any one person or entity shall be deemed to have been given or made by, with and to all of them.

H.Time is of the essence with respect to Tenant's obligations and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, exercise of any expansion, renewal or extension rights granted to Tenant.

I.The expiration of the Term, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, shall not relieve either party of any obligations which accrued prior to or which may continue to accrue after the expiration or early termination of this Lease.

EXHIBIT E ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

1.Option to Extend. So long as the Lease is in full force and effect and, at the time of exercise of the option to renew, Tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period provided herein, Tenant shall have two (2) successive options to extend the Lease for a term of five (5) years each (each, an "Option"), on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, except as modified by the terms and conditions set forth below:

i)If Tenant elects to exercise an Option, Tenant must provide Landlord with written notice of its election to exercise such Option no earlier than the date which is eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the then current term and not later than the date which is six (6) months prior to the expiration of the then current term of the Lease. If Tenant fails to timely provide such notice, Tenant shall have no further right to exercise any Option or to extend the term of the Lease. Time is of the essence for this provision.

ii)The Base Rent for each Option term shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate of the Premises in effect at the expiration of the then current term of the Lease. "Fair Market Rental Rate" shall be the then going rate for comparable space at the Hughes Airport Center and other comparable buildings in the Airport sub-market. The determination of the Fair Market Rental Rate shall take into consideration any concessions and inducement then being offered by landlords in the submarket area, as well as the quality of the buildings, the extent of Tenant's liability under the Lease, abatement provisions reflecting free rent and/or no rent during the period of construction or subsequent to the commencement date as to the space in question, brokerage commissions, length of the lease term, size and location of premises being leased, building standard work letter and/or tenant improvement allowances, if any, and other generally applicable conditions of tenancy. There shall be no minimum rent in the determination of Fair Market Rental Rate.

iii)If Landlord and Tenant do not agree on the Fair Market Rental Rate within thirty (30) days of Tenant's delivery of notice of its intent to exercise an Option, then Landlord and Tenant shall submit the matter to arbitration as set forth below.

(a)Within fifteen (15) days after the Landlord and Tenant's failure to agree as set forth above, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint an independent appraiser who shall by profession be a real estate broker who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial property in the Las Vegas area. Landlord and Tenant shall each submit to the appraisers their respective Fair Market Rental Rate determinations (and back-up information regarding their determination), and the determination of the appraisers shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Fair Market Rental Rate for the Premises is the closest to the actual Fair Market Rental Rate for the Premises, as determined by the appraisers. Such arbitrators may (or at the request of either party, shall) hold such hearings and require such briefs as the arbitrators, in their discretion, determine to be necessary.

(b)The arbitrators shall, within fifteen (15) days of their appointment, agree upon and appoint a third appraiser who shall have the same qualifications required of the initial two appraisers. If the two appraisers fail to agree on a third appraiser, both appraisers shall be dismissed and the matter shall be submitted to arbitration under the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service ("JAMS"), but based on the same procedures set forth herein, however, in the event that the Property association recorded covenants and restrictions requires such matter to be determined in another manner, then the parties agree to do so.

(c)The three appraisers shall reach a decision within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser and shall promptly notify Landlord and Tenant of such determination. The decision of the majority of the three appraisers shall be binding upon the parties.

(d)If any party shall fail to appoint an appraiser within the time period set forth above, the other party shall provide written notice to the non-performing party regarding such failure, and in the event such non-performing party fails to appoint an appraiser within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, then the appraiser appointed by one of them shall appoint another appraiser under the requirements of this sub-section iii.

2.Right of First Refusal. Subject to the rights of existing tenants, Landlord shall provide Tenant a right of first refusal (the "Right of First Refusal") to lease any vacant space in the Building and, if owned by Landlord or under common ownership as Landlord at the time the Right of First Refusal arises, the buildings in the Hughes Airport Center commonly known as 955 Kelly Johnson Drive, 840 Grier Drive, 880 Grier Drive, 975 Kelly Johnson Drive and 980 Kelly Johnson Drive (collectively, the "ROFR Premises") before Landlord leases all or any portion of the ROFR Premises to another tenant, on the following terms and conditions:

E-1

Tenant's right to exercise the Right of First Refusal in any instance shall be subject to the conditions that at the time of such exercise of the Right of First Refusal the Lease shall be in full force and effect and no uncured default on the part of Tenant shall then exist under the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods provided in the Lease. Landlord shall not enter into a lease with a prospective tenant for any ROFR Premises unless Landlord shall have first given Tenant an opportunity to exercise the Right of First Refusal with respect to such ROFR Premises. Landlord shall give Tenant the opportunity to exercise the Right of First Refusal by providing to Tenant a copy (redacted for any confidential information) of all material terms and conditions of an offer made to or received from a third party which Landlord intends to accept for any of the ROFR Premises (a "First Refusal Notice"). Tenant may elect to lease the subject ROFR Premises on the terms hereinafter described by giving written notice to Landlord within 10 Business Days after Tenant's receipt of a First Refusal Notice. If Tenant exercises its Right of First Refusal, the ROFR Premises shall be leased on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except: (a) the term of the lease of the ROFR Premises shall be coterminous with the term of this Lease; (b) Landlord shall provide Tenant a tenant allowance for tenant improvements equal to the product of (i) the number of months in the term for the ROFR Premises divided by 120; times (ii) $35.00 per square foot times the ROFR Premises square feet (for example purposes only, in the event the remaining term of this Lease is 60 months and the ROFR Premises is 10,000 sf, then Tenant shall receive $175,000.00); (c) if the ROFR Premises is for space in the 840 Grier Drive building and the 980 Kelly Johnson Drive building, the rental terms shall be the same economic terms as set in this Lease; and (d) if the ROFR Premises are in the 950 Grier Drive building or 955 Kelly Johnson building, the base rent shall be the rate that would be applicable if such ROFR Premises had been leased concurrently with the Lease at a starting rate of $9.00 per square foot per year on a "Net Basis" with an annual increase of 2.5% in Base Rent. The term "Net Basis" shall mean that Tenant pays for all operating expenses incurred for the Premises, without reference to any base year. If Tenant does not exercise its option to lease the applicable ROFR Premises within 20 Business Days after receipt of a First Refusal Notice for such ROFR Premises, then Landlord may enter into a lease with a third party for the subject ROFR Premises upon the same material terms stated in the First Refusal Notice. Landlord shall again comply with the terms of this Right of First Refusal prior to entering into a lease of the subject ROFR Premises with a third party.

This shall be a continuing Right of First Refusal, and, provided that Tenant is not in uncured default, shall apply to any new lease of the ROFR Premises during the Term (but shall not, however, apply to renewals or extension rights set forth in leases in existence as of the Effective Date). Further, with respect to existing tenants located in the ROFR Premises which do not have a renewal or extension right set forth in their applicable lease, Landlord may negotiate with such existing tenant a renewal or extension of their existing lease provided that Landlord shall have first given Tenant an opportunity to exercise the Right of First Refusal with respect to such ROFR Premises as described in this Section 2 which such opportunity must be delivered to Tenant no earlier than twelve (12) months, nor later than nine (9) months, prior to the end of the existing tenant's lease expiration date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) Tenant shall not be entitled to the Right of First Refusal during the last twelve months of the term of this Lease, and (ii) Tenant shall not be entitled to the Right of First Refusal if Tenant shall have assigned, sublet or otherwise transferred the Lease at any time, other than a Permitted Transfer or an Affiliate Transfer. The Right of First Refusal is personal to Tenant or the transferee of a Permitted Transfer or an Affiliate Transfer and cannot be transferred or otherwise assigned, and may only be exercised, when and if Tenant or a Permitted Transferee or an Affiliate Transfer is in physical occupancy of the entire Premises.

3.Roof Rights. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to install and maintain on the roof and exterior of the Building transmission and security equipment for Tenant's use at the Premises. Landlord shall not charge Tenant for said rights and Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for the installation, maintenance, insurance and compliance with applicable laws for such transmission and security equipment installed by Tenant, as well as the removal, repair and restoration caused to the associated space. All transmission and security equipment shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval regarding the location of same. Landlord may require Tenant to use Landlord's roofing contractor for any installations on the roof or related work and repair if the use of Tenant's contractor would adversely affect any warranty Landlord's contractor may have given for the roof.

4.Back-up Generator. Subject to Landlord's written approval as to the number and location thereof, Tenant may install backup generators on the Property. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs associated with the installation of such generators. Tenant shall construct an enclosure for the generators and maintain such enclosure in compliance with all laws, rules, regulations and requirements of local governing authorities. To the extent required by law, Tenant shall obtain and continuously maintain in full force and effect all required permits, licenses, and authorizations required for it to install, maintain and repair the generator at the Property. Tenant shall not install, maintain, repair or operate any generator or enclosure that (a) adversely affect, impair, restrict or impact the structural integrity or use of, or the mechanical, plumbing, structural or electrical systems of the Property, or (b) interfere with the operation of the Property. Tenant shall remove the generator at the termination or expiration of this Lease, and if the installation of the generator damages or replaces existing landscaping and/or parking spaces, Tenant, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, shall replace such landscaping and/or parking spaces upon removal of the generator. Any parking spaces occupied by the generator shall come out of the Tenant's parking allocation.

E-2

5.Security. Tenant may require Landlord to provide reasonable security patrol for the Building by providing written notice to Landlord of such request. Landlord shall have a reasonable time after receipt of such notice to enter into a contract with a security patrol provider of its choice. Notwithstanding that Landlord shall be required to hire a security patrol service, Landlord shall not be liable for any failure of the security patrol to prevent any security breaches. The cost of security patrol services shall be included in Expenses. Tenant shall also have the right utilize a card key access system for the Building, if any, at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

6.Parking. Subject the Rules and Regulations attached to this Lease as Exhibit B and as established by Landlord from time to time, Tenant shall be entitled to the use of all parking spaces allocated to the Building in the shared parking lot designated on Schedule 1 to this Exhibit. Tenant acknowledges that the uncovered parking spaces in such parking lot are made available in common with the other tenants of the Building and are not reserved. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant and its employees and invitees are parking at the Property at Tenant's own risk. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY LANDLORD'S BREACH OF THIS LEASE, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, LANDLORD, ITS MANAGEMENT COMPANY AND THEIR AGENTS SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO VEHICLES, PERSONAL PROPERTY LEFT IN VEHICLES OR ANY OTHER PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE PROPERTY, NOR FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURIES OR DEATH ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THE PARKING SPACES AT THE PROPERTY.

7.Privileged Licenses. Tenant, to its actual knowledge, represents to Landlord that Landlord is not currently required to obtain any license, qualification, clearance or the like as a result of the special nature of the Privileged Licenses (defined below) and held by Tenant or Tenant's parent company, subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Tenant's Affiliates"). Landlord acknowledges that Tenant and Tenant's Affiliates are businesses that are or may be subject to and exist because of privileged licenses relating to the gaming industry issued by Governmental Authorities ("Privileged Licenses"). Landlord's agents, employees and subcontractors, shall obtain any license, qualification, clearance or the like which shall be required of any of them by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Landlord. If: (i) Landlord, or Landlord's agents, employees, or subcontractors, fails to satisfy such requirement and such failure jeopardizes Tenant's Privileged Licenses under the statutes or regulations of any Governmental Authority; (ii) Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates is directed to cease business with Landlord or Landlord's agents, employees or subcontractors by any such Governmental Authority; or (iii) Tenant shall in good faith determine, in Tenant's reasonable judgment, that Landlord, or any of Landlord's agents, employees, subcontractors, or representatives, (a) is engaged in, or is about to be engaged in, any activity or activities, or (b) was or is involved in any relationship, either of which does jeopardize Tenant's or Tenant's Affiliates Privileged Licenses under the statutes or regulations of a Government Authority or causes any Governmental Authority to deny, curtail, suspend, revoke or threaten the same, then this Lease may be immediately terminated by Tenant without further liability from Tenant to Landlord; provided, however, if any matter described herein can be appealed or is reasonably susceptible to cure without jeopardizing Tenant's or Tenant's Affiliates Privileged Licenses, Landlord shall have a reasonable time within which to make such appeal or effect such cure (but in no event longer than the time available to fully comply with any requirement imposed by any Governmental Authorities or any other applicable law, rule or regulation) and Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease during such appeal or cure period. In the event of termination by Tenant, Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice of the basis of the termination, including the statutes or regulations under which it believes the Privileged Licenses may be in jeopardy.

In addition, Landlord hereby acknowledges that it is illegal for a denied license applicant or a revoked license (pursuant to the Laws of the Nevada gaming authorities), or a business organization under the control of a denied license applicant or a revoked licensee, to enter into, or attempt to enter into, a contract with Tenant without the prior approval of the Nevada Gaming Commission. Landlord hereby affirms, represents and warrants to Tenant that Landlord is not a denied license applicant, a revoked licensee or a business organization under the control of a denied license applicant or a revoked licensee, and Landlord hereby agrees that this Lease is subject to immediate termination by Tenant without further liability from Tenant to Landlord if Landlord should become a denied license applicant, a revoked licensee or a business organization under the control of a denied license applicant or a revoked licensee. In the event of an assignment or transfer of this Lease by Landlord, Tenant shall receive all information necessary to complete a background check of the assignee as may be required by Tenant's or Tenant's Affiliates Corporate Compliance Plan. Upon Landlord's request and provision of any information necessary to complete a background check upon a proposed assignee, Tenant will perform such review and notify Landlord prior to assignment in the event such proposed assignee is not acceptable to Tenant.

"Governmental Authorities" means those federal, state and local governmental, quasi­ governmental authorities, agencies, courts, departments, boards and officials, as constituted from time to time, now or hereinafter in effect having jurisdiction over Landlord, Tenant, Tenant's Affiliates, this Lease, or the Premises.

The parties acknowledge that this Section 7 shall only apply to the extent Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates hold privileged gaming licenses issued by Governmental Authorities.
