applying a Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of 3.859% to the First Floor Expansion Space. As set forth in Section 3 of the Addendum to the Lease, in no event shall Controllable Operating Expenses with respect to the First Floor Expansion Space for

Base Rent and Additional Rent due under the Lease with respect to the Original Premises and the First Floor Expansion Space. Any and all references in the Lease to “Rent” are hereby amended to include reference to all Base Rent and
Additional Rent payable with respect to the entire Premises. 

  
 – 2 – 

 4.        ABATED RENT PERIOD.  Tenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and
Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of increases in Operating Expenses for the First Floor Expansion Space shall be abated during the period commencing on the First Floor Expansion Effective Date and continuing through the date that is 120 days thereafter
(the “Abated Rent Period”), prorated on a per-diem basis. Only Base Rent and Operating Expenses shall be abated during the Abated Rent Period, and all other costs and charges specified in the Lease shall remain as due and
payable pursuant to the provisions of the Lease. 
 5.        ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT.  Upon Tenant’s execution hereof, Tenant shall pay Landlord the sum of $7,215.00 which is added to

execution hereof, the Deposit is increased from $48,413.25 to $55,628.25. 

6.        CONDITION
OF THE PREMISES;
ALLOWANCE. 

6.1       Condition of Premises.  Tenant acknowledges that neither
Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Original Premises, First Floor Expansion Space, or the Building, or with respect to the suitability of any part of the same for the conduct of
Tenant’s business. Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that, as of the Second Amendment Date, (a) Tenant is in possession of the Original Premises, and (b) the Original Premises, First Floor Expansion Space, and the
Building are in a good and sanitary order, condition and repair acceptable to Tenant. Tenant shall be conclusively deemed to have accepted the First Floor Expansion Space “AS IS” in the condition existing on the First Floor
Expansion Effective Date, and to have waived all claims relating to the condition of the First Floor Expansion Space. 

6.2       Allowance.  Tenant may use up to $21,645.00 (the
“Allowance”) for the purchase and installation of data cabling, painting and carpet cleaning within the First Floor Expansion Space. Except as set forth herein, in no event shall the Allowance be used for the purchase of any other
equipment, furniture or other items of personal property. The Allowance shall be paid to Tenant or, at Landlord’s option, to the order of the contractor or vendor that performed the work or provided the goods, within thirty (30) days
following completion of such work and receipt by Landlord of the following, as applicable: (1) receipted bills covering all labor and materials expended and used in the work and (2) full and final waivers of lien. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, Landlord shall not be obligated to disburse any portion of the Allowance during the continuance of an uncured default under the Lease, and Landlord’s obligation to disburse shall only resume when and if such default is
cured. Any portion of the Allowance which is not used as permitted by this Section 6.2 or is otherwise remaining after October 1, 2014 shall accrue to the sole benefit of Landlord, it being agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any
credit, offset, abatement or payment with respect thereto. 
 7.        PARKING.  From and after the First Floor Expansion Effective Date, the Lease shall be amended as follows: 

7.1       Spaces.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that,
in addition to the Parking Spaces previously made available to Tenant under the Lease, during the First Floor Expansion Term, Landlord shall make available to Tenant the use of an additional 30 Parking Spaces on an unreserved basis of which 26 shall
be Surface Parking Spaces and 4 shall be Covered Parking Spaces, which brings the total number of Surface Parking Spaces made available to Tenant to 107, and the total number of Covered Parking Spaces to 13. Five (5) of the thirteen
(13) Covered Spaces shall be designated as Reserved Covered Spaces. 

7.2       Sections 1.9 and 29.  All other terms and conditions of
Sections 1.9 and 29 of the Lease not amended herein shall continue in full force and effect, and the additional Surface Parking Spaces and Covered Parking Spaces made available by Landlord in Section 7.1 above shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of Section 29 of the Lease; provided, however, the current rate for the Covered Parking spaces is $100.00 per month per space, subject to annual market adjustments, and the current rate for the Reserved Covered Spaces is $150.00 per
month per space subject to annual market adjustments. 

  
 – 3 – 

 8.        FURNITURE.  During the First Floor Expansion Term, Tenant shall have the right to use the furniture and fixtures located in the First Floor Expansion Space free of charge in it’s as-is
condition and Tenant acknowledges that Landlord makes no warranty or representation of any kind with respect to such furniture and fixtures. On or before the day that is ninety (90) days after First Floor Expansion Effective Date, Tenant shall
advise Landlord which furniture, if any, Tenant does not intend to use (“Furniture Notification”) and Landlord shall remove such furniture within five (5) business days of the Furniture Notification. 

9.        RIGHT
OF FIRST REFUSAL. 

9.1       Grant of Option; Conditions.  If at any time during the
First Floor Expansion Term any lease for Suites 100, 105, or 145 on the first (1st) floor of the Building shown on the demising plan attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
“Refusal Space”) shall expire and if Landlord intends to enter into a lease for such Refusal Space (“Proposed Lease”) with any party other than the tenant then occupying the Refusal Space, then
Landlord shall first offer to Tenant the right to lease the Refusal Space as part of the Premises upon the terms and conditions of the Proposed Lease (the “Right of First Refusal”). Each refusal right of the Refusal Space,
whether 100, 105, or 145 shall be independent of each other right to a portion of the Refusal Space. Tenant’s Right of First Refusal is an ongoing right effective during the Extension Term and shall be exercised as follows: when Landlord has
entered into a written agreement with a prospective tenant, other than the tenant then occupying the Refusal Space (the “Prospect”) interested in leasing the Refusal Space, Landlord shall advise Tenant (the
“Advice”) of the terms and conditions under which Landlord is prepared to lease the Refusal Space to such Prospect. The Advice shall include any and all other space in the Building (which, for purposes of such Advice, shall
be deemed to be part of the Refusal Space) that such Prospect is interested in leasing, and Tenant must exercise this Right of First Refusal, if at all, by accepting all such space in the Building identified in the Advice. Tenant may lease the
Refusal Space under such terms by providing Landlord with written notice of exercise (the “Notice of Exercise”) within 5 business days after the date of the Advice. Tenant shall be deemed to have declined to exercise this
Right of First Refusal if its Notice of Exercise is delayed or if the Notice of Exercise changes any term or condition of the Advice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no such Right of First Refusal and Landlord need not provide
Tenant with an Advice if: 
 (a)       an Event of Default is continuing at the
time that Landlord would otherwise deliver the Advice; or 
 (b)       the
Premises, or any portion thereof, is sublet (other than pursuant to a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee, as defined in Section 14.2 of the Lease) at the time Landlord would otherwise deliver the Advice; or 

(c)       the Lease has been assigned (other than pursuant to a Transfer to a
Permitted Transferee, as defined in Section 14.2 of the Lease) prior to the date Landlord would otherwise deliver the Advice; or 

(d)       the Refusal Space is not intended for the exclusive use of Tenant during
the Term; or 
 (e)       Tenant is not occupying the Premises on the date
Landlord would otherwise deliver the Advice. 

  
 – 4 – 

 9.2       Terms for Refusal
Space. 
 (a)       Subject to Section 9.03 below, the term
for the Refusal Space shall commence upon the Refusal Space Commencement Date (as defined herein) and shall continue for the term stated in the Advice. Upon the Refusal Space Commencement Date, the Refusal Space shall be considered a part of the
Premises. Tenant shall pay Rent for the Refusal Space in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Advice and all of the terms stated in the Advice shall govern Tenant’s occupancy of the Refusal Space; provided, however, all other
non-conflicting terms and conditions of the Lease shall govern Tenant’s occupancy of the Refusal Space. The “Refusal Space Commencement Date” shall mean the delivery of the Refusal Space by Landlord subject to
Substantial Completion of any improvements committed to be performed in the Refusal Space by Landlord pursuant to the Advice. 

(b)       The Refusal Space (including improvements and personalty, if any) shall
be accepted by Tenant in its condition and as-built configuration existing on the Refusal Space Commencement Date, unless the Advice specifies additional work to be performed by Landlord in the Refusal Space after the Refusal Space Commencement
Date, in which case Landlord shall perform such work in the Refusal Space. If Landlord is delayed delivering possession of the Refusal Space due to the holdover or unlawful possession of such space by any party, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts
to obtain possession of the space, and the Refusal Space Commencement Date shall be postponed until the date Landlord delivers possession of the Refusal Space to Tenant free from occupancy by any party. 

(c)       Landlord reserves the right upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise to
request Tenant’s current financial records in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, to review Tenant’s current financial condition and to adjust the security required under the Advice as reasonably determined by Landlord. 

9.3       Termination of Right of First Refusal.  The rights of
Tenant hereunder with respect to each Refusal Space shall terminate on the date Landlord would have provided Tenant an Advice with respect to any portion of the Refusal Space if Tenant had not been in violation of one or more of the conditions set
forth in Section 9.1 above. 
 9.4       Refusal Space
Amendment.  If Tenant exercises its Right of First Refusal, Landlord shall prepare an amendment to the Lease (the “Refusal Space Amendment”) adding the Refusal Space to the Premises on the terms set forth in
the Advice and reflecting the changes in the Base Rent, rentable square footage of the Premises, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share and other appropriate terms. A copy of the Refusal Space Amendment shall be sent to Tenant within a reasonable time after
Landlord’s receipt of the Notice of Exercise, and Tenant shall execute and return the Refusal Space Amendment to Landlord within 10 days thereafter and Landlord shall promptly counter execute and return same to Tenant, but an otherwise valid
exercise of the Right of First Refusal shall be fully effective whether or not the Refusal Space Amendment is executed. 

9.5       Subordination.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, Tenant’s Right of First Refusal is subject and subordinate to (i) any tenant leasing all or any portion of the Refusal Space as of the date of the Lease; (ii) the expansion rights (whether such rights are designated as a
right of first offer, right of first refusal, expansion option or otherwise) of any tenant of the Building regarding the Refusal Space existing on the date of the Lease; (iii) the right of Landlord to lease the space to any other tenant or
tenant prospect who by the inclusion of the Refusal Space will occupy more space in the Building than Tenant; and (iv) Landlord’s right to retain the use of the space for its own internal use, including but not limited to use by an
affiliate or subsidiary of Landlord or use as a management office. 

9.6       Original Tenant.  The Right of First Refusal shall be
personal to Original Tenant (as defined in the Lease), and may only be exercised by Original Tenant. All references to “Tenant” in this Section 9 shall mean Original Tenant only. In the event of any assignment of the Lease or sublease
of all or any portion of the Premises to any party other than Original Tenant, the Right of First Refusal shall be extinguished. 

  
 – 5 – 

 10.      CONDITIONAL ACCELERATION OF TERMINATION DATE
. 

10.1     Accelerated Termination Right.    Tenant shall have a
one-time right to terminate the Lease with respect to the First Floor Expansion Space only (“Acceleration Option”) any time during the First Floor Expansion Term if Tenant is able to relocate its employees from the First
Floor Expansion Premises to all or a portion of the space on the 4th Floor of the Building currently leased to Intermap Technologies, Inc. (“Intermap Premises”), by
entering into a new lease with Landlord for all or a portion of the Intermap Premises effective as of the commencement date of Tenant’s occupancy of the Intermap Premises (the “Accelerated Termination Date”), subject to
the following terms and conditions. 
 (a)       Landlord shall have received
written notice of Tenant’s election to exercise its Acceleration Option (the “Acceleration Notice”) on or before the date that the parties execute a lease agreement (or amendment) granting Tenant occupancy rights for the
Intermap Premises along with payment in full of the Termination Fee (as defined below). 

(b)       There is no Event of Default under the Lease as of the date Tenant
provides Landlord an Acceleration Notice or from or after the date of such notice. 

(c)       No part of Premises is sublet for a term extending past the Accelerated
Termination Date. 
 (d)       The Lease has not been assigned other than
pursuant to a Permitted Transfer. 
 (e)       The Lease Term has not been
extended beyond the initial Expiration Date. 
 10.2     Termination Fee. As
consideration for and a condition of Tenant’s right to exercise its Acceleration Option, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount (the “Termination Fee”) equal to the sum of the unamortized portion of the leasing
commissions incurred by Landlord in connection with this Second Amendment (which the parties agree is $21,645.00) as of the Accelerated Termination Date amortized over the First Floor Expansion Term on a straight line basis with no interest. Tenant
shall pay the Termination Fee to Landlord simultaneously with the delivery of the Acceleration Notice. Tenant shall remain liable for all Base Rent, Additional Base Rent and other sums due under the Lease up to and including the Accelerated
Termination Date even though billings for such may occur subsequent to the Accelerated Termination Date. 

10.3     Terms and Conditions. 

(a)       Provided Tenant has performed in accordance herewith and Landlord has
received the Termination Fee as set forth above, the Lease with respect to Suite 115 shall automatically terminate as of 5:00 p.m. on the Accelerated Termination Date and neither party shall have any further obligation or liability to the other
except for (i) the obligation with respect to actual Operating Expenses which shall survive Termination and shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the Lease, (ii) any indemnification waivers or releases by either party of the other
for claims or liability accruing or arising prior to the Accelerated Termination Date, which indemnification, waivers or releases shall survive termination including but not limited to the provisions of Section 12.3 of the Lease and
(iii) any other provision which by its terms survives termination. 

  
 – 6 – 

 (b)       Time is of the essence
hereof. If Tenant fails to deliver notice of its election to terminate in accordance herewith, the Accelerated Termination right shall be automatically null and void and of no further force and effect. 

(c)       If Tenant has given proper and timely notice of its election to terminate
but otherwise commits or permits an Event of Default, including without limitation failure to pay the Termination Fee or surrender the Premises on the Accelerated Termination Date in accordance with the terms of the Lease, Landlord at its option may
without waiving any rights or remedy for such default elect to either (i) declare this Accelerated Termination right null and void and the Lease shall continue in full force and effect or (ii) terminate the Lease pursuant to
Section 17 of the Lease and recover all damages including consequential damages arising from Tenant having defaulted hereunder. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit Landlord from recovering the Termination Fee, if not paid by Tenant,
together with interest thereon and the late payment fee. 
 (d)      Tenant shall keep
and perform its obligations under the Lease through the Accelerated Termination Date and shall surrender the First Floor Expansion Space no later than noon on the Accelerated Termination Date in accordance with the terms of the Lease. 

10.4     Original Tenant.  The Acceleration Option shall be personal to
Original Tenant (as defined in the Lease), and may only be exercised by Original Tenant. All references to “Tenant” in this Section 10 shall mean Original Tenant only. In the event of any assignment of the Lease or sublease of all or
any portion of the Premises to any party other than Original Tenant, the Acceleration Option shall be extinguished. 

11.      BROKERAGE.  Tenant represents it has
not dealt with or employed any broker in connection with the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Second Amendment and has no knowledge of any broker’s involvement in this transaction except those listed in Sections 1.15 and 1.16 of the
Lease (collectively, the “Brokers”). Landlord and Tenant shall each indemnify the other against any expense incurred by the other as a result of any claim for commissions or fees by any other broker, finder, or agent, whether
or not meritorious, employed by the other or claiming by, through, or under the other, other than the Brokers. Tenant acknowledges Landlord is not liable for any representations by the Brokers regarding the Premises, Building, Building Complex, or
this Lease. 

12.      SIGNAGE.  Landlord will provide
Tenant, at Landlord’s cost and expense, standard signage on the Building lobby directory and building standard suite signage at the entry to the First Floor Expansion Space to identify Tenant and Redwood Residential Acquisition Corporation (or
another of Tenant’s affiliates as approved by Landlord such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

13.      GENERAL PROVISIONS.  

13.1     Full Force and Effect; Conflict.  Except as amended by this Second
Amendment, the Lease as modified herein remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified by Landlord and Tenant. In the event of any conflict between the Lease and this Second Amendment, the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment shall
