    SEPARATION
      AGREEMENT

    (AND
      RELEASE OF CLAIMS)

    

    

    

    This
      Agreement is made the 8th day of August, 2007, by and between Denny’s, Inc. (the
“Company”) and you, Margaret L. Jenkins, regarding your separation of employment
      with the Company under the following terms and conditions.

    

    For
      valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
      acknowledged, including the mutual promises and representations of the Company
      and you as set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as
      follows:

    

    
      	
              1.  

            	
              Separation
                of Employment.  As of Friday, August 3, 2007 (the
                “Notification Date”), you are hereby notified that you will stop
                performing services on August 31, 2007 (the “Separation Date”), and that
                your employment therefore will terminate on that date and that you
                will cease to be an employee of the Company for all
                purposes.

            

    

    

    
      	
              2.  

            	
              Payment
                by Company.  You will be paid through August 31, 2007 in
                accordance with the normal biweekly payroll schedule.  In
                addition, the Company will pay you a single lump sum severance payment
                in
                the amount of $ 1,338,150, which represents 200% of your current
                base pay;
                200% of your annual target bonus (65% of your base salary); and 200%
                of
                your car allowance.  This payment will be made to you as soon as
                administratively feasible upon the expiration of your Separation
                Date and
                the expiration of the seven (7)-day revocation period, but in no
                event
                later than March 15, 2008.

            

    

    

    
      	
              3.  

            	
              Vacation
                Pay.  You will be paid for any vacation hours which you have
                earned but not used.  This payment will occur as soon as
                administratively possible after your Separation
                Date.

            

    

    

    
      	
              4.  

            	
              Career
                Continuation Assistance.  To help you transition to a new
                career, you will be provided with outplacement services for a period
                of
                eighteen (18) months by a transition services firm mutually agreed
                to by
                you and the Company.  To begin these services, you will need to
                contact Jill Van Pelt at (864)597-8879 within thirty (30) days of
                your
                Separation Date.  This benefit is available in this form only
                and is not transferable to any other benefit or
                cash.

            

    

    

    
      	
              5.  

            	
              Stock
                Options.  Subject to approval by the Board of Directors of
                Denny’s Corporation, as of the later of your Separation Date or the date
                of approval by the Board of Directors, you shall immediately become
                one
                hundred percent (100%) vested in, and eligible to exercise, all stock
                options that have been granted to you by the Company.  You will
                have the right to exercise any or all of such vested options (except
                for
                the stock options awarded to you on November 10, 2004 at an exercise
                price
                of $2.42, the “$2.42 Stock Options”) for the lesser of thirty-six (36)
                months or the remaining term of such option grant.  The $2.42
                Stock Options will be exercisable by you pursuant to the terms of
                the
                applicable underlying stock option agreement, as amended by the written
                elections with respect to such options’ exercise dates that were made by
                you to ensure that such options complied with Section 409A of the
                Internal
                Revenue Code (“Section 409A”), which are set forth below (as further
                updated to comply with the final regulations under Section
                409A):

            

    

    

    a.
The
      $2.42 Stock Options that vested
      before 2005
      (for which no 19(c) election
      was required):  Exercise in conformance
      with the original term for post-termination exercise that is stated in your
      stock option agreement, which is within 60 days after
      termination;

    

    b.  The
      $2.42 Stock Options that vested in 2005:  Per your 19(c) election
      form filed in 2005, the elected year of exercise (2009) would be accelerated
      by
      your termination; because you are a “specified employee” of the Company (as
      defined in Code section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)), we are required to delay your first
      permitted day of option exercise until March 1, 2008 (6 months after your
      termination); you will be allowed to exercise this option on any day between
      March 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008; and

    

    c.  The
      $2.42 Stock Options that vested in 2006:  Per your 19(c) election,
      you had elected to exercise options on 90,000 shares, divided among three
      different years of exercise, 2007, 2008 and 2009.  No change is made
      in your election with respect to the 30,000 shares that you elected to exercise
      in 2007, because by the terms of your election, your service termination does
      not change that elected year of exercise.  However, in the case of the
      options you elected to exercise in 2008 and 2009, your permitted exercise
      period, which is changed because of your termination of service, is now any
      day
      between March 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008.

    

    
      	
              6.  

            	
              Medical,
                Dental & Vision Benefits.  The COBRA provision of the
                federal law allows you to remain in the Company’s group plan for medical,
                dental, and vision benefits for up to eighteen (18) months with coverage
                retroactive to your Separation Date.  After your Separation
                Date, you will receive information about the COBRA continuation of
                coverage option, including the necessary election forms, at your
                home
                address.  You must complete and return the election forms within
                sixty (60) days of your Separation Date to elect COBRA
                benefits.  COBRA premiums are generally 102% of the full benefit
                cost (employee and employer portions).  In an effort to offset
                this expense and to enhance this benefit, the Company will extend
                the
                eighteen (18) months of continued coverage to twenty-four (24) months
                and
                make a one-time payment to you equal to the difference of the full
                COBRA
                premiums and the amount you would pay for these benefits as an active
                employee.  This payment will be made at the time of your lump
                sum severance payment and will be taxed accordingly.  This
                payment will be calculated as
                follows:

            

    

    

    (Full
      COBRA premium – current active employee premiums) x 24 months = one-time
      payment

    

    
      	
              7.  

            	
              Other
                Health and Welfare Benefits.  Your basic group life
                insurance, basic accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and
                any
                supplemental life insurance coverage that you have elected for 2007
                will
                end thirty (30) days following your Separation Date.  If you
                wish to convert your coverage to a term life policy, you will need
                to
                contact the Company’s Group Benefits department at (864)597-8433 as soon
                as possible, and in any event, within the thirty (30) day period
                following
                your Separation Date.  All other benefits, including your
                long-term disability coverage, will end at 12:00 midnight on your
                Separation Date.

              Denny’s
                Deferred Compensation Plan.  Contributions to your Denny’s
                Deferred Compensation Plan account will cease as of your Separation
                Date.  As a key employee of the Company, and as required by
                Section 409A, the payout of your Deferred Compensation Plan account
                balance must be delayed until six (6) months after your Separation
                Date.  Generally, after this six (6)-month period, you will
                receive your account balance in accordance with your payment schedule
                election.  For federal income tax purposes, Plan distributions
                are taxed as ordinary income in the year received, and they are subject
                to
                income tax withholding at the tax rate applicable in the year of
                receipt.  Distributions from the Plan may also be subject to
                state income taxes.  Please call the Plan’s administrator, The
                Newport Group, at (407)333-2905 for additional information or to
                discuss
                your options for distribution.

                etc. must be returned before payment of any severance
                pay.

              11.  

            	
              Complete
                Release.  You understand that the benefits described in this
                Agreement are not automatically payable to every employee.  You
                have had a reasonable opportunity to carefully review and consider
                the
                benefits available to you as part of this Agreement and acknowledge
                that
                this reasonable opportunity for consideration is twenty-one (21)
                days from
                your Notification Date.  You acknowledge that you have been
                encouraged to consult with an attorney of your own choosing before
                signing
                this Agreement.  You understand the consequences of agreeing to
                the terms of this Agreement and accepting enhanced severance
                benefits.  You enter into this Agreement knowingly and
                voluntarily.  No person has pressured you or used duress to
                affect your decision.  You do not need more time to
                deliberate.

            

    

    

    
      	
              a.  

            	
              Release
                of Claims.  After careful deliberation and an opportunity to
                consult with an attorney, you certify that you are not aware of any
                facts
                or circumstances that would support a claim of discrimination against
                Denny’s, Inc. on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin,
                age, disability or other protected status.  You are also not
                aware of any reason to believe Denny’s, Inc.’s offer is
                unfair.  For and in consideration of the benefits payable under
                this Agreement, you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release,
                acquit
                and forever discharge Denny’s, Inc. and each of its stockholders,
                predecessors, successors, assigns, agents, directors, officers, employees,
                representatives, divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates (and agents,
                directors, officers, employees, representatives and attorneys of
                such
                divisions, subsidiaries and affiliates), and all persons acting by,
                through, under or in concert with any of them (collectively “Releasees”),
                from any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities, obligations,
                promises, agreements, controversies, damages, actions, causes of
                action,
                suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts, and expenses of any
                nature
                whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, including,

                of any
                contracts, express or implied, or any tort, or any legal restrictions

                have, own or hold, or claim to have, own or hold, or which I at any

                later of
                your Separation Date or the date on which you sign this
                Agreement.  Without waiving any prospective or retrospective
                rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”), you admit that you
                have received from Denny’s, Inc. all rights and benefits, if any,
                potentially due you pursuant to the FMLA.  It is your intent to
                release all claims which you can legally release but no more than
                that.

            

    

    

    
      	
              b.  

            	
              Waiver
                of Rights Under State Law.  You further acknowledge and
                agree that your release of claims pursuant to this Agreement covers
                any
                and all rights and benefits that you have or may have in the future,
                whether known or unknown, and you waive any and all rights under
                the laws
                of any State (expressly including, but not limited to, Section 1542
                if the
                California Civil Code) which provides as follows (or which is
                substantially similar in wording or
                effect):

            

    

    

    A
      general
      release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect
      to
      exist in his favor at the time of executing this Agreement, which if known
      by
      him must have materially affected his settlement with the Debtor.

    

    
      	
              c.  

            	
              Covenant
                Not to Sue and Indemnification.  Except as prohibited by
                law, in consideration for the pay and benefits agreed to herein,
                you agree
                not to sue any of the Releasees on any of the released Claims or
                join as a
                party with others who may sue on any such Claims.  You hereby agree
                to indemnify and hold each and all of the Releasees harmless from
                and
                against any and all loss, costs, damages, or expenses, including,
                without
                limitation, attorneys’ fees incurred by Releasees, or any of them, arising
                out of any breach of this Agreement by you or the fact that any
                representation made herein by you was false when
                made.

              No
                Claims.  You represent that you have not filed, or assigned
                to others the right to file, any complaints, charges or lawsuits
                against
                any of the Releasees with any governmental agency or any court, and
                that
                you will not file, assign to others the right to file, or make any
                further
                claims against the Releasees at any time hereafter for actions taken
                up to
                and including the later of your Separation Date or the date you sign
                this
                Agreement.  You further agree that neither you nor any person or
                organization on your behalf has filed, or assigned others the right
                to
                file, nor are there pending, any complaints, charges, or lawsuits
                against
                the Releasees with any federal, state or local governmental agency
                or
                court.  If you file, maintain or participate in any claim or
                action, in any court or agency, based wholly or partially upon Claims
                you
                have released or waived as part of this Agreement, you agree to pay
                all
                expenses and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by
                Denny’s, Inc. and those associated with Denny’s, Inc. in defense of such
                Claims.

              Confidentiality.  You
                agree not to discuss, disclose or publicize the nature or reason
                for your
                separation or the contents of this Agreement, including the amount
                of
                monetary payments, except where reasonable business needs warrant
                disclosure.  You further agree to preserve the confidentiality
                of any and all trade secrets and other confidential information of
                the
                Company and its affiliates.  Furthermore, you acknowledge and
                understand that the Company has disclosed Confidential Information
                which,
                for purposes of this Agreement, is defined as information which is
                not
                generally known in the business or community in which the Company
                is
                engaged or may become engaged or which would logically be considered
                confidential or proprietary or which would do the Company harm if
                divulged.  Such Confidential Information includes, but is not
                limited to, knowledge concerning the Company’s trade secrets, business
                methods and procedures or employee pay and human resource
                data.  You will treat all such Confidential Information as
                having been entrusted to you solely for use in your capacity as an
                employee of the Company and will not divulge such information in
                any way
                to persons inside or outside the Company before or after your Separation
                Date.  Likewise, the Company agrees, to the best of our ability
                and unless required otherwise by law, not to discuss the nature or
                reason
                for your separation and to provide dates of your employment and position
                title only in response to any inquiries for

                to cooperate with the Company and/or its attorneys in connection
                with any
                claim or litigated matter where your assistance is reasonably required
                or
                desired.

              Non-Compete
                and No Solicitation.  The parties agree that in your
                position as Senior Vice-President and Chief Marketing Officer of
                the
                Company and as a member of the Management Committee, you had broad
                supervisory and management responsibility for the Company’s marketing
                function and knowledge of its strategic
                direction.  Consequently, in consideration for the sums being
                paid to you hereunder, you agree not to--whether as director, employee,
                or
                consultant--work or consult with or for any business in the United
                States
                that competes directly with the Company, (a “Company Competitor”) for a
                period equal to the number of months you are receiving severance
                benefits
                (24 months following your Separation Date).   A Company
                Competitor shall include restaurants or restaurant chains within
                the
                family dining segment and shall specifically include, without limitation,
                IHOP, Shoney’s, Cracker Barrel, Bob Evans and any and all other similar
                local, regional, and national chain restaurants.
For
                a
                period of twenty-four (24) months following your Separation Date,
                you
                further agree that you will not solicit any employee of the Company
                in
                order to induce, entice or influence the employee to terminate his
                or her
                employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in order to
                work
                for you, your new employer or any company in which you or your family
                members have an economic interest.

                furnishing of any consideration hereunder shall be deemed for any
                purpose
                to be an admission by any person or entity of liability or responsibility
                for any wrongdoing.

                with Agreement.  You acknowledge that the various promises
                and payments made by the Company to you under this Agreement are
                expressly
                conditioned upon your own compliance with the Agreement, and that
                your
                failure to comply discharges the Company from any further obligations
                under the Agreement (in addition to all other remedies available
                to the
                Company).

                whomever you see fit review this Agreement, that you understand it,
                and
                that you have signed it voluntarily.  This Agreement supersedes
                all prior verbal and written communications between the Company and
                you
                concerning your separation from employment, may not be modified except
                in

                legal action regarding this Agreement must be filed in South Carolina
                and
                South Carolina law shall apply.

                Date,

                seventh day is a Saturday or Sunday, or national holiday, you will
                have

                effective or enforceable until the seven (7)-day revocation period
                has
                expired, and you acknowledge that notwithstanding anything to the
                contrary
                in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make severance
                payments to you under this Agreement unless and until this seven
                (7)-day
                period has passed without your revocation.  If you decide to

Exhibit 10.35

SECOND AMENDMENT TO LEASE

     THIS
SECOND AMENDMENT TO LEASE (“Amendment”) is dated as of August 28, 2007 (the
“Effective Date”) and is entered into between BRITANNIA HACIENDA VIII LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (“Landlord”) and ALEXZA
PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. a Delaware corporation
(“Tenant”), with reference to the following facts:

Recitals

     A. Landlord and Tenant are parties to a Lease dated as of August 25, 2006 (the
“Initial Lease”), covering premises consisting of the building commonly known as 2091
Stierlin Court (the “Initial Premises”) in the Britannia Shoreline Technology Park in Mountain
View, California, containing approximately 65,604 square feet of space. The term of the Initial
Lease is scheduled to expire on March 31, 2018, subject to two 5-year renewal options as set forth
in the Initial Lease.

     B. Landlord and Tenant are parties to a First Amendment to Lease dated as of
May 4, 2007 (the “First Amendment”) covering premises consisting of the building
commonly known as 2023 Stierlin Court (the “Expansion Premises”) in the Britannia Shoreline
Technology Park in Mountain View, California, containing approximately 41,290 square feet of space.
Tenant’s occupancy of the Expansion Premises will occur on a phased basis as more particularly
set forth in the First Amendment, and the term of that occupancy is the remainder of the term
of the Initial Lease (subject to the renewal described above).

     C. Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Lease to provide an increase in the
Tenant Improvement Allowance to be provided by Landlord with respect to the Initial Premises,
subject to and as more particularly set forth in this Amendment.

     D. For purposes of this Amendment and of the Initial Lease as modified by this
Amendment, the term “Lease” means the Initial Lease as modified by the First Amendment
and this Amendment; the term “Initial TI Allowance” means the Tenant Improvement Allowance
of up to $8,331,708 as provided in the Initial Lease; the term “Lease Year” means a
twelve (12) month period commencing on the Rent Commencement Date or on an anniversary of the Rent
Commencement Date, as applicable; and the term “Rent” means the monthly minimum rent
payable with respect to the Initial Premises under Section 3.1 (a) of the Initial Lease.
Capitalized terms used in this Amendment as defined terms but not specifically defined in this Amendment
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Initial Lease.

Agreement

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals above, the mutual agreements contained in
this Amendment and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

     1. Increase in Tenant Improvement Allowance. Subject to Section 3 of this
Amendment, from and after the Effective Date, the Tenant Improvement Allowance, as defined in
Section 3 of the Workletter attached to the Initial Lease as Exhibit B, is hereby increased
by

 

 

an amount of up to $100.60 per square foot of the Initial Premises for construction of tenant
improvements in the Initial Premises, and the aggregate available amount of such increase
($6,600,000) is referred to in this Amendment as the
“Additional TI Allowance.” Except as
specifically set forth in this Amendment, the Additional TI Allowance and Tenant’s use thereof
toward the Cost of Improvements of Tenant Improvements are subject to all the terms and conditions
applicable to the Tenant Improvement Allowance and the use thereof under the Initial Lease,
including (without limitation) those terms and conditions contained in the Workletter. For example,
(i) in no event shall the Additional TI Allowance be used or useable by Tenant for any cost or
expense associated with any moveable furniture, trade fixtures or personal property, and (ii) the
cost of any refurbishments, alterations or improvements made by Tenant that are not eligible for
expenditure of Additional TI Allowance funds, and any amount by which the cost of permissible
refurbishments, alterations and improvements made by Tenant exceeds the available Additional TI
Allowance, shall be Tenant’s sole cost and expense. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall
the Additional TI Allowance be used or useable by Tenant for any cost or expense associated with
the Expansion Premises.

     2. No Effect on Other Tenant Improvement Allowances. The terms and conditions
applicable to the Initial TI Allowance shall remain unchanged and are not modified by this
Amendment. For example, the date on which the Initial TI Allowance expires shall be the date
that is one year after the Rent Commencement Date, as provided in the Initial Lease. Likewise,
the terms and conditions applicable to the Expansion Premises TI Allowance, as defined in the
First Amendment, shall remain unchanged and are not modified by this Amendment.

     3. Expiration of Additional TI Allowance. The Tenant is entitled to the Additional
TI Allowance as set forth in this Amendment but is not required to use any portion or all of
the Additional TI Allowance. Any portion of the Additional TI Allowance that has not been claimed
or drawn by Tenant as of March 31, 2008 shall expire and shall no longer be available to
Tenant thereafter.

     4. Availability of Additional TI Allowance. The Additional TI Allowance shall be
available to Tenant in three tranches. The “First Tranche” means any portion of the first
$2,600,000 of the Additional TI Allowance actually used by Tenant.
The “Second Tranche”
means any portion of the next $2,000,000 of the Additional TI Allowance actually used by
Tenant. The “Third Tranche” means any portion of the final $2,000,000 of the Additional TI
Allowance actually used by Tenant

     5. Repayment of Additional TI Allowance. The Additional TI Allowance shall be
subject to the following methods of cost recovery, all of which are based on the entire square
feet of space in the Initial Premises. The Additional TI Allowance is provided as part of the basic
consideration to Tenant under this Amendment and will not result in any rental adjustment or
additional rent beyond the minimum monthly rental expressly provided in the Lease except as
set forth in this Section 5. Schedule 1 attached hereto provides a sample calculation for
the following methods of cost recovery.

          (a) First Tranche. If Tenant draws down any portion of the First Tranche, then
from and after the date of each disbursement of First Tranche funds by Landlord, (i) Rent for the
remainder of the Lease Year in which such disbursement occurs shall be increased,

- 2 -

 

commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the month in which such disbursement of
First Tranche funds by Landlord occurs, by a monthly amount equal to eight hundred thirty-three
one-thousandths of a percent (0.833%) of the amount of such disbursement (the amount of such
increase is referred to herein as the “First Tranche Additional Monthly Rent”), and (ii) at
the beginning of each subsequent Lease Year during the initial term of the Lease, the First Tranche
Additional Monthly Rent shall be increased by three percent (3.0%) over the First Tranche
Additional Monthly Rent payable during the immediately preceding Lease Year. Such increases shall
be in addition to any increases in Rent pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Initial Lease. The First
Tranche Additional Monthly Rent will become part of monthly minimum rent payable with respect to
the Initial Premises for all purposes under the Initial Lease, and as such, will affect the monthly
minimum rental due pursuant to Section 3.1(b) of the Initial Lease during any extended term of the
Lease.

          (b) Second Tranche. If Tenant draws down any portion of the Second
Tranche, then from and after the date of the first disbursement of Second Tranche funds by
Landlord and continuing until the amortization of such amounts has been paid in full in the
manner described below, commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the
month in which such first disbursement of Second Tranche funds by Landlord occurs, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the Rent and any amounts due under Section 5(a) of this
Amendment, additional monthly rent (the “Second Tranche Additional Monthly Rent”) in
an
amount equal to the amount necessary to amortize the entire cumulative amount of the Second
Tranche funds drawn down by Tenant, over a seven (7) year period on a level-payment basis
with an implied interest rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum on the unamortized balance of
such Second Tranche funds outstanding from time to time. The parties acknowledge that to the
extent the Second Tranche funds are drawn down in two or more phases by Tenant, it will be
necessary for the Second Tranche Additional Monthly Rent to be recalculated following each
successive draw-down in order to reflect the additional amortization amounts attributable to
such
successive draw-down.

          (c) Third Tranche. If Tenant draws down any portion of the Third Tranche,
then from and after the date of the first disbursement of Third Tranche funds by Landlord and
continuing until the amortization of such amounts has been paid in full in the manner
described below, commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the month in which such
first disbursement of Third Tranche funds by Landlord occurs, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in
addition to the Rent and any amounts due under Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of this Amendment,
additional monthly rent (the “Third Tranche Additional Monthly Rent”) in an amount
equal to the amount necessary to amortize the entire cumulative amount of the Third Tranche funds
drawn down by Tenant, over a five (5) year period on a level-payment basis with an implied
interest rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum on the unamortized balance of such Third
Tranche funds outstanding from time to time. The parties acknowledge that to the extent the
Third Tranche funds are drawn down in two or more phases by Tenant, it will be necessary for
the Third Tranche Additional Monthly Rent to be recalculated
following each successive draw-down in order to reflect the additional amortization amounts attributable to such successive
draw-down.

          (d) Acknowledgement of Revised Rent Schedule. Promptly following the
earlier to occur of (i) the entire Additional TI Allowance being claimed or drawn by Tenant
and

- 3 -

 

(ii) the expiration of the availability of the Additional TI Allowance pursuant to Section 3 of
this Amendment, Landlord and Tenant shall execute a written acknowledgement of the monthly minimum
rental due under the Lease (i.e., the Rent, First Tranche Additional Monthly Rent, Second Tranche
Additional Monthly Rent and Third Tranche Additional Monthly Rent) and related matters as affected
by this Amendment, which acknowledgement shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by this
reference. Notwithstanding the foregoing requirement, the failure of either party to execute such a
written acknowledgement shall not affect the determination of the monthly minimum rental due under
the Lease and related matters in accordance with the provisions of this Amendment.

          (e) Repayment Not a Loan. The parties acknowledge that Tenant’s repayment of the
Additional TI Allowance through the additional monthly rental amounts set forth in this Section 5
are a method of cost recovery and do not constitute a loan from Landlord. Any terminology similar
to that as might be used in connection with a loan (e.g., amortizations and interest rates), are
used solely for convenience in calculating the rates of such cost recovery and should not, and may
not, be used to imply any lending relationship between the parties.

     6. Brokers. Each party respectively (i) represents and warrants that no broker
participated in the consummation of this Amendment and (ii) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
the other party harmless against any liability, cost or expense, including (but not limited to)
reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claims for brokerage commissions or other similar
compensation in connection with any conversations, prior negotiations, agreements or other dealings
by the indemnifying party with any broker in connection with this Amendment.

     7. Entire Agreement. This Amendment constitutes the entire agreement between
Landlord and Tenant regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
negotiations, discussions, terms sheets, understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, between
the parties with respect to such subject matter (other than the Lease itself, as expressly
amended hereby).

     8. Execution
and Delivery. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts and by separate parties on separate counterparts, effective when each party has
executed at least one such counterpart or separate counterpart, but each such counterpart
shall constitute an original and all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

     9. Full Force and Effect. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Lease has not
been modified or amended and remains in full force and effect.
