ON THE OTHER PART,

 

 

    Page 3 of 24

     

    

It was previously agreed as follows:

 

Under an agreement made in Lyon (69) as
of 10 October 2002, MAISON ANTOINE BAUD leased to TMS premises situated in VAUX-IN BOND (69120) 4 rue du Dauphiné, for an
initial term of nine years commencing on 1 October 2002.

 

Under two amendments dated 15 October 2002
and 28 June 2004, respectively, the parties supplemented the provisions regarding insurance, excluded from the leased space part
C3 intended to be used as archives, covering an area of 410 sqm in Building C, and added part B2 covering an area of 825 sqm in
Building B, as of 30 June 2004.

 

Upon expiry of the lease referred to above,
the Parties agreed to renew the lease, under an agreement dated 1 November 2011, for a subsequent term of nine years commencing
on 1 October 2011.

 

The Parties supplemented the "Insurance"
clause under an amendment dated 27 March 2012.

 

According to different arrangements made
by the Parties thereafter, the Landlord agreed to deal with all the work and also offered better energy performance of the building,
provided that a new lease is executed subject to the terms and conditions set out below.

 

Now therefore, it is agreed as follows:

 

Amicable termination of
the existing lease

 

The Parties agree to terminate
the lease previously made between them, with effect as of the effective date of this Agreement as defined in Article 2 below.

 

Such termination is effected
without any Party being indemnified therefor.

 

Given a new lease made between
the Parties subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, regarding the premises being the object of the initial lease,
no notification will be made to Tenant's registered creditors, if any.

 

Commercial Lease

 

The Landlord hereby leases to the Tenant
and the Tenant hereby leases and takes from the Landlord the property described below, situated in VAUX-EN-VELIN (69120).

 

The lease is granted and accepted subject
to the terms and conditions that the TENANT is obliged to comply with or otherwise the lease shall be terminated without prejudice
to any other remedies and damages.

 

    Page 4 of 24

     

    

1. Description of the Leased Premises

 

The below-described premises are part of
the property situated in VAUX-EN-VELIN (69120), 4 rue du Dauphiné, Building B, and comprise:

 

	Premises for office and business purposes
(Parts B1, B6 to B7, B4 to B5, B3) with a total area of approx. 3.325 sqm;
	Premises for archive storage purposes
(Part B2) with an area of approx. 825 sqm.

Furthermore, the above-described premises,
together with all easements and appurtenances, without any exceptions or reservations, conform with the plan attached hereto (SCHEDULE
1).

 

The TENANT declares to have known the premises
which it has occupied since 2002.

 

2. Lease Term – 10 years, of which 9 years fixed

 

This lease is made for a fixed term commencing
on 1 July 2015 and ending on 30 June 2025.

 

This lease is made for a fixed term of
ten years, and the TENANT shall not be entitled to terminate this Agreement at the end of each three-year period, which is expressly
acknowledged by the same and constitutes an essential condition without which the LANDLORD would not have entered into this Agreement.
The Tenant shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement at the end of the lease.

 

The LANDLORD shall be entitled to terminate
this Agreement if it invokes Articles L. 145-18, L. 145-21 and L.145-24 of the French Commercial Code in order to build, rebuild
or extend the existing building or to carry out such works as may be required or permitted as part of the property renovation.

 

The party intending to terminate the lease
in either of the cases referred to above shall give notice by extrajudicial document or registered letter, return receipt requested,
at least six months prior the expiry of the applicable period.

 

3. Use of the Leased Premises

  

The premises which are currently leased
will be used by the TENANT exclusively to carry out its business of researching electronic and computer devices for the treatment
of materials, equipment, manufacturing and marketing of high-tech medical devices.

 

The TENANT may only carry out other related
or additional activities or one or more different activities if the conditions set out in Articles L. 145-47 and L. 145-55 of the
French Commercial Code are satisfied.

 

It is expressly agreed between the Parties
that the leased premises may not be used to carry out any activity whose nature would make it necessary to apply regulations concerning
installations classified for environmental protection purposes (ICPE).

 

The TENANT agrees to carry out its business
in compliance with all applicable regulations, whether current or future. It specifically agrees, as regards storage, not to store
any products which fall within the scope of ICPE classification or not to exceed the thresholds specified therein and which would
lead to the application of one of the systems established by applicable regulations.

 

    Page 5 of 24

     

    

The Parties may agree, in a written amendment
to this Agreement, to derogate from the preceding two paragraphs.

 

4. Terms and Conditions

  

This lease is granted and accepted subject
to the terms and conditions that are customarily applied in such agreement, and such terms which the TENANT has agreed to abide
by without being entitled to seek compensation or reduction of rent:

 

4.1. Delivery and Acceptance Report

 

The TENANT acknowledges to have accepted
the leased premises in the condition in which they were on the day when it took possession of them under the initial lease, without
being entitled to request the LANDLORD to carry out any improvements or repairs or to make any related claims, and also without
being entitled to exercise any remedy against the LANDLORD for any reason whatsoever, with respect to the condition of the premises,
given the fact that the TENANT has occupied the premises for years

 

On the effective date of this lease, a
delivery and acceptance report shall be drawn up jointly by the Parties or by their joint representative, save that the related
costs will be borne equally by the Parties. Each Party may retain one copy; otherwise, the challenging Party may apply to a judicial
officer [huissier de justice] to draw up such report and the related costs will be borne equally by the LANDLORD and TENANT, in
accordance with Article L. 145-40-1 paragraph 2 of the French Commercial Code.

 

4.2 Maintenance and Repairs

 

The TENANT shall at all times
keep the leased premises in good state of repair. It shall make all repairs referred to in Articles 1754 and 605 of the French
Civil Code. To that end, the TENANT shall, at its sole expense, make and all necessary repairs, whatever their nature, and in particular
procure maintenance of heating and air conditioning, if any, in offices and social rooms and maintenance of all doors, shutters,
frames, paintings, glazing, blinds, etc. The TENANT shall replace the same elements at its sole expense, also if they get deteriorated
due to wear and tear.

 

The TENANT further agrees to
protect the premises against frost during cold periods. The LANDLORD shall not be held liable in case of loss of or damage to materials
and goods caused by frost in the closed and roofed premises.

 

The LANDLORD shall only be responsible
for major repairs referred to in Article 606 of the French Civil Code, i.e.:

 

		-	"gable walls and vaults, reinstallation of beams and coverings"

		-	dikes, supporting walls and fences."

 

All other maintenance repairs within the
meaning of the same provision shall be made by the TENANT who consents thereto. In addition, pursuant to Article R.145-35 paragraph
5 of the French Commercial Code, the TENANT shall bear all expenses associated with major repairs referred to in Article 606 of
the French Civil Code relating to improvements that exceed the replacement cost.

 

    Page 6 of 24

     

    

The TENANT shall suffer or permit to be
done, without seeking any damages or reduction of rent, any repairs that the LANDLORD would be required to make in accordance with
the preceding paragraph, should the works last more than twenty-one days. It shall remove, at its expense and without delay, all
fixtures, signs and other installations on the façade of the building, the removal of which may be required in order to
carry out such works.

 

However, the LANDLORD is obliged to carry
out the works as soon as reasonably practicable and in consultation with the TENANT, so as to interfere with the conduct of TENANT’s
business to the least possible extent.

 

Unless the LANDLORD signs contracts of
maintenance and management of the entire building and all TENANTS, the TENANT shall, at regular intervals, carry out compliance
checks required by law to the extent that the premises which it occupies are affected by one of the following areas:

 

- Smoke extraction,

- Fire extinguishing equipment
(outdoor hydrants, indoor fire hydrants, fire extinguishers),

- Alarms and detection systems
(fire, burglary, etc.)

- Sectional door,

- Automatic door,

- Cleaning eaves drip and roof,

- Electrical wiring system,

- Emergency lighting,

- Elevators,

- Cleaning of sewage drain
system,

- etc.

 

The TENANT shall provide the
Landlord with relevant certificates of conformity as soon as it obtains the same.

 

The TENANT shall also provide
the LANDLORD, annually, with evidence of renewal of insurance policies pertaining to the premises.

 

The TENANT shall enter into,
with its energy providers (electricity, gas, etc.), contracts concerning powers and technical parameters which must conform to
the characteristics of the existing systems or those that are to be installed by the LANDLORD. If the TENANT fails to comply with
the above obligation, the LANDLORD shall not be held liable for failure to deliver the premises.

 

4.3 TENANT’s Works

 

The TENANT may not make any
demolition, alterations, drilling of walls or partition walls, expand or change the layout of the leased premises without the express
written consent of the LANDLORD. Such works, if authorised by the LANDLORD, shall be carried out under the supervision of the LANDLORD’s
architect and the related costs shall be borne by the TENANT.

 

No alterations or improvements
made by the TENANT without the Landlord’s consent shall give rise to the LANDLORD’s right to seek damages against the
TENANT. This provision, however, shall in no case be interpreted as the LANDLORD’s implied consent to the execution of such
works. The LANDLORD reserves the right to request, at any time, that the premises be restored to their former condition if any
such works are executed without its consent.

 

    Page 7 of 24

     

    

Even if authorised by the LANDLORD,
no alterations, adaptations or improvements made by the TENANT shall give rise to the LANDLORD's right to seek any damages from
the TENANT.

 

The TENANT may in no event,
at the end of the lease term, take any of the items or materials that it has attached to the leased property at the time of making
improvements or renovation, if those elements or materials may not be separated without being broken or otherwise damaged or without
breaking or otherwise damaging the foundation to which they are attached. This provision shall be without prejudice to the LANDLORD's
right to demand that the premises be restored to the former condition if the works or improvements are carried out or made without
its consent.

 

If special requirements are
to be complied to allow the works to be carried out (such as a permit for works), the TENANT is obliged to provide the LANDLORD
with a copy of all documents filed with the competent authorities (local or otherwise). It further undertakes to keep the LANDLORD
informed of any responses received in this respect by providing the LANDLORD with a copy of any correspondence.

 

The LANDLORD hereby authorises
the TENANT to procure, at its sole expense, a qualified company to carry out interior design work, according to the description
of works attached hereto (SCHEDULE 2). Notwithstanding the above authorisation, such works must be carried out in accordance
with this article.

 

4.4 LANDLORD’s Works

 

The LANDLORD agrees to carry
out the following works:

 

		-	Cladding of the
building with restyling of the façade and reinsulation;

		-	Resealing of roofs,
skylights and heat and smoke vents, with additional insulation;

		-	Replacement of
the awning and floor at the main entrance and installation of an awning above the emergency exit facing Dauphinée Street;

		-	Modification of
the air (hot and cold) handling unit, including installation of destratification fans, where necessary.

 

The description of the following
works is attached hereto (SCHEDULE 3).

 

Such works should be completed
within three months following the date of this Agreement.

 

4.5Works Required by Authorities

 

The TENANT shall bear the costs of any
alterations, improvements or adaptations and, more generally, any other work related to business carried out in the premises by
the TENANT (especially with respect to installations classified for environment protection purposes), whatever their nature and
duration, which would be required in order to comply with any law or regulation, health, safety or other standards, whether existing
now or in the future. The LANDLORD shall carry out any other works as may be required by governmental authorities because of the
general condition of the building and regardless of the TENANT's business.

 

    Page 8 of 24

     

    

The TENANT is hereby authorised to carry
out such works provided that it has demonstrated that these are required under a court or administrative decision, save that such
works must be carried out under the supervision of the LANDLORD's architect whose fees shall be charged to the TENANT.

 

Except as otherwise agreed, such works
shall remain the property of the LANDLORD at the end of lease term, without any compensation.

 

The Parties expressly agree that the costs
of any work required to bring the leased premises in line with the regulations, related to business carried out by the TENANT,
and which would otherwise be borne by the LANDLORD as falling within the scope of major repairs referred to in Article 606 the
French Civil Code, shall be borne by the TENANT, subject to the terms and within the limits set out in Article 4.2. hereof. The
added value of the leased premises due to the LANDLORD bearing the costs of such works related to the TENANT's business shall result
in an increase in the rent, which is an essential and determining condition without which the LANDLORD would not have entered into
this Agreement.

 

This will be equal, on an annual basis
excluding taxes, to the total value (exclusive of taxes) of the said works, divided by their depreciation period specified in the
accounts of the LANDLORD. The corresponding amount will be included in and form an integral part of the rent as of the first day
of the month following completion of the works. For example, the completion of works by the LANDLORD for a total amount of EUR
7,000 (exclusive of taxes), to be depreciated throughout a seven-year period, will result in an annual increase of rent equal to
1,000 EUR (exclusive of taxes). The latter being included in the rent, it will be subject to payment and review terms specified
in Articles 5 and 6 hereof.

 

4.6 Administrative approvals
– legislation relating to installations classified for environmental protection purposes (ICPE) – legislation relating
to waste

 

The TENANT shall, throughout the term of
this lease and any renewals thereof, be personally liable for obtaining and maintaining any and all administrative approvals required
for the conduct of business in the leased premises. Neither the LANDLORD's liability nor obligation to deliver the leased premises
may be challenged in this respect.

 

4.6.1. Legislation relating
to ICPE

 

The TENANT states that it has made all
filings with and taken all steps required by the competent authorities and in particular the DREAL, which indicates that the installation
to be operated by the same will not be subject to any special restrictions (approvals, registrations or declarations) provided
by law.

 

The TENANT agrees to bear any consequences
(especially the inability to use), if the above statement proves incorrect, by refraining from holding the LANDLORD liable, whether
for failure to deliver or otherwise.

 

It further acknowledges that, pursuant
to Article 3 hereof, the leased premises may not be used to carry out any activity whose nature would make it necessary to apply
regulations concerning installations classified for environmental protection purposes (ICPE).

 

The Lessee declares to be well aware of
this situation and further acknowledges to have been advised by the drafters of this Agreement of the importance of checks to be
made in this respect, so that if the installation proves, under the existing or future legislation, and/or with respect to the
development of the TENANT's business, consisting for example in a change in volumes of goods held in stock, to be subject to one
of the procedures provided by law, the TENANT shall be obliged to limit the scope of or even cease its business, without the LANDLORD
being held liable for failure to deliver the premises or otherwise.

 

    Page 9 of 24

     

    

The TENANT agrees to keep up with any changes
in legislation concerning public and environmental matters.

 

4.6.2. Legislation relating
to waste

 

If any specific business likely to cause
pollution risks, in particular soil contamination, is carried out in the leased premises, the TENANT shall, in strict compliance
with the existing and future legislation applicable to this type of business and installations, remove waste and recover materials
so as to avoid any adverse effect and to prevent the LANDLORD from being held liable for any damage caused to third parties.

 

Pursuant to Articles L.541-1 to L.541-4
of the French Environmental Code, any person who produces or holds waste under conditions which are likely to produce harmful effects
on soil, flora and fauna, to cause damage to areas or landscape, to pollute air or water, to cause noise and odours and, in general,
to harm human health and the environment, is required to arrange for management and disposal of such waste under conditions allowing
for such effects to be avoided.

 

In this regard, the TENANT considered to
be the waste holder, even if such waste is found in the building, agrees to comply with applicable regulations (in particular Article
L 514-2 of the French Environmental Code) and to take, throughout the lease term, any steps that may be required by new regulations
on waste.

 

The TENANT further undertakes to dispose
or to cause its waste to be disposed of so that no claims may be raised against the LANDLORD at any time. To this end, it shall
cause contaminated soil to be inspected and shall bear any costs related to the measures that may be decided by any administrative
authority.

 

Upon the TENANT's departure,
the surrender of the leased premises shall be confirmed in a relevant report to be accompanied by a copy of the hazardous waste
monitoring forms and invoices issued by companies engaged in the waste removal and transport. The LANDLORD shall acknowledge receipt
of these documents if the TENANT so requests, without prejudice to the effective disposal of all waste.

 

4.7Structures

 

The TENANT may not make any
new structures in the leased premises without the express written consent of the LANDLORD.

 

The LANDLORD reserves the right
to request, both during the lease and upon its expiration, the removal of any structures made by the TENANT without the LANDLORD's
approval. No failure by the LANDLORD to exercise the said right to request the removal of such structures during the lease term
shall operate as an implied approval of the structures made by the TENANT. The LANDLORD shall retain the right to request the removal
of said structures at the end of the lease or upon the departure of the TENANT and at the latter's expense.

 

    Page 10 of 24

     

    

Such works, if authorised by
the LANDLORD, shall be carried out under the supervision of the LANDLORD’s architect and the related costs shall be borne
by the TENANT.

 

No new structure made by the
TENANT shall become the property of the LANDLORD until such time as the TENANT vacates the leased premises.

 

No assignment, if effected,
shall give rise to the TENANT'S right to seek damages.

 

4.8Signage

  

Subject to applicable laws
and regulations and co-ownership regulations, if any, and with the approval of local authorities, if required, the TENANT may install
illuminated signs, blinds, awnings and plates on the façade of the building after obtaining the prior written approval of
the LANDLORD with respect to the plans and implementation work. The TENANT shall take all steps and obtain all approvals required
by law, and acknowledges that the LANDLORD shall in no event be held liable if such approval is refused for any reason. The TENANT
shall give notice to the LANDLORD, by registered letter against acknowledgment of receipt, of any decision obtained by the TENANT
within fifteen days of receipt of the same.

 

The TENANT shall only bear
the costs and fees relating to the installation and maintenance of such systems.

 

The TENANT shall respect the
sizes, shapes and material provisions of any signage in place in the environment of the leased premises. If there are any common
advertising materials in the commercial environment of the leased premises, the TENANT shall reimburse the LANDLORD or any company
executing related work for the cost of modification of the material resulting from its presence.

 

In addition, it shall ensure
that the related work does not pose any threat to the sustainability of the installations and existing buildings in the area, safety
of property and persons, or to the structure of the existing buildings and fences. It shall also ensure that such structures are
at all times securely installed and shall be solely liable for any damage occasioned by their installation or existence, to the
effect that the LANDLORD may in no event be held liable therefor.

 

At the end of the lease, the
TENANT shall remove, at its expense, any signs erected by the same and restore the premises to their former condition.

 

4.9Surrender of Premises at the End of Lease
– Delivery and Acceptance Report

  

At the expiration of the contractual
relationship or the end of lease, the TENANT shall surrender the premises in good condition, after having completed all the work
required of it under this lease.

 

    Page 11 of 24

     

    

Pursuant to Article L. 145-40-1
of the French Commercial Code, a delivery and acceptance report shall be drawn up jointly by the parties or by a third party authorised
by them.

 

If the report cannot be drawn
up in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the challenging Party may apply to a judicial officer to draw up such report and
the related costs shall be borne equally by the LANDLORD and TENANT.

 

4.10 Other Remedies

 

The
TENANT agrees not to demand a reduction in rent from the LANDLORD, in particular due to any interruption in the operation of networks
or distribution of fluids of any kind, theft or damage occurred in the leased premises.

 

4.11Breach of Obligations

  

In
the event of breach by the TENANT of its obligations under this Lease Agreement or any schedules, if applicable, the LANDLORD or
its authorised representative may, if such breach is not remedied after two weeks of the TENANT being requested to remedy by registered
letter against acknowledgment of receipt, to have such obligations performed or breach remedied by any person of its choice, at
the expense and risk of the TENANT. The costs of such action shall be added automatically to the immediately following rent.

 

Furthermore,
the LANDLORD reserves the right, in such case, to avail itself of the cancellation clause stipulated
below.

 

4.12 Assignment

 

The TENANT shall not assign
any of its rights under this lease, including to the purchaser of its business, unless with the prior written consent of the LANDLORD.

 

To this end, the TENANT shall
inform the LANDLORD by registered letter against acknowledgment of receipt of its intention to assign its rights hereunder and
shall call upon it to join the signing of an agreement, at least thirty days in advance.

 

Such request shall indicate
the name and address of the assignee, object and terms of assignment and the place, date and time scheduled for the signing of
the assignment agreement. It shall be accompanied by a draft assignment agreement. The LANDLORD may demand that the TENANT provide
any additional information relevant to its decision.

 

Failure by the LANDLORD to
respond within twenty days of receipt of the request for approval shall operate as an acceptance of the proposed assignee.

 

However, failure by the LANDLORD
duly summoned to appear on the date of signing of the agreement shall not prevent the assignment provided that the proposed assignee
shall have been approved.

 

    Page 12 of 24

     

    

The assignment must be evidenced
in a private document or notarial deed, of which a copy or original, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the LANDLORD in
accordance with Article 1690 of the French Civil Code, without delay and at no charge.

 

The assignment may in no event
be effected unless the terms and conditions hereof are complied with and in particular as long as no rent is outstanding.

 

The TENANT shall be jointly
and severally liable as a guarantor with its assignee and any successive assignees, for the payment of rents, charges and incidental
costs, and any other compensation payable by the assignee and for the performance of the terms and conditions hereof for a period
equal to the remaining term of this lease and any renewal thereof. The TENANT’s guarantee shall in no event be shorter than
3 years from the date of assignment of the lease.

 

In case of successive assignments,
the TENANT shall remain liable for all assignees throughout the period mentioned in the preceding paragraph.

 

The foregoing provisions apply
to all cases of assignment in any form whatsoever, including in case of merger or demerger of companies, universal transmission
of a company’s property made in accordance with Article 1844-5 of the French Civil Code or in case of contribution of part
of the assets of a company made in accordance with Articles L.236-6-1, L. 236-22 and L. 236 -24 of the French Commercial Code.

 

4.13 Subletting – Lease Management

 

The TENANT may not sublet all
or any part of the leased premises without the express written consent of the LANDLORD.

 

Notwithstanding the preceding
paragraph, the TENANT may partially sublet the premises to any company belonging to the TENANT’s group subject to the prior
express consent of the LANDLORD. The TENANT shall remain liable to pay all the rents, without prejudice to the LANDLORD's right
to require payment of rent from the subtenant. The LANDLORD and the TENANT expressly agree that the leased premises are indivisible
and any partial lease should specify that the leased premises form an indivisible whole. The LANDLORD is not obliged to renew any
sub-lease and the TENANT shall be solely liable for the eviction of the subtenant. The TENANT shall be solely liable for the consequences
of any sublease made, and in particular with respect to the restoration of the premises to their previous condition, if necessary,
at the time when such subtenant takes possession of and vacates the premises.

 

The TENANT may not have its
business managed under a management agreement without the express prior consent of the LANDLORD. In all cases the TENANT shall
remain liable to pay all the rents, without prejudice to the LANDLORD's right to require payment of rent directly from the manager.

 

4.14 Occupancy - Quiet Enjoyment

 

The TENANT shall use the leased
premises with due diligence, having regard to their intended purpose.

 

    Page 13 of 24

     

    

The TENANT shall not do or
permit to be done anything that might interfere with the use of premises by other tenants, particularly with regard to noise, odours
and smoke and, more generally, anything that would disturb quiet enjoyment by others.

 

The TENANT shall not do or
permit to be done anything that might cause damage to the leased premises and shall give prompt written notice to the LANDLORD

5.4Inspection of Premises

 

The TENANT shall permit the
LANDLORD, its architects, contractors, workmen and all persons authorised by the same, to enter upon the leased premises to inspect

6. Rent

 

6.1. Base Rent

 

This lease has been approved and agreed
for an annual rent of three hundred three thousand and fifty-nine euros and sixty cents (EUR 303,059.60) exclusive of taxes, charges
and property taxes.

 

All payments shall be made to the LANDLORD's
registered office or to any other place indicated by the LANDLORD, by direct debit, to which the TENANT expressly consents.

 

Copy of a duly completed SEPA Direct Debit
Mandate furnished to the LANDLORD by the TENANT is attached hereto (SCHEDULE 4).

 

The TENANT agrees to pay the rent to the
LANDLORD plus VAT at the applicable rate, quarterly in advance, in four equal instalments, on 1 January, 1 April, 1 July and 1
October each year. The first payment shall be made on 1 July 2015.

 

6.2. Additional rental charges payable by the
TENANT

  

In consideration of the following services
rendered by the LANDLORD, the TENANT shall pay annually, as additional rental charges, throughout the fixed term of this lease
or for a period of nine years, the amounts specified below:

 

		-	Heating and air conditioning: charges
equal to an initial annual amount of EUR 9,000 (exclusive of taxes)

		-	Renovation of the building (relooking):
charges equal to an initial annual amount of EUR 9,000 (exclusive of taxes)

 

Such amounts will be paid on the same dates
and conditions as the rent, but will not be subject to adjustment.

 

6.3. Additional Rent for
Improvement of the Energy Performance of the Leased Premises

 

As it has been stipulated in Article "LANDLORD's
works" above, the LANDLORD agrees to carry out any insulation and waterproofing of the leased premises aimed at improving
the energy performance of the leased premises.

 

    Page 16 of 24

     

    

The Parties agree that, as additional rent,
and in consideration for the service provided by the LANDLORD, the TENANT shall pay the LANDLORD annually an amount equal to half
of the energy savings made by the same because of the work carried out by the LANDLORD. The Parties expressly agree that such additional
rent shall be payable throughout the term of this lease and its first renewal.

 

For the purposes of determining said amount,
the Parties caused a report to be prepared by BETALM, an engineering design office specialising in HVAC, in October 2014, to which
they make an express reference. Copy of the report is attached hereto (SCHEDULE 5).

 

According to the research conducted by
BETALM, BETALM:

 

"does not seek to make actual savings
made on energy bills issued to the tenant, but rather to model a portion of savings made due to energy conservation works, normalized
according to climate conditions.

 

Thus, energy consumption stated on the
bills will be adjusted for climate conditions, that is normalized by taking into account the climate of the period concerned and
so-called "reference" consumption, established on the basis of the average climate, called long-term degree days (DJU)
for a thirty-day period and previous forecast.

 

This will give a difference between
"reference" and "normalized" consumption which will enable us to establish energy savings attributable to energy
conservation."

 

The Parties expressly agree to refer to
the methods presented by BETALM in its report for the purposes of calculating energy savings (gas and electricity).

 

The additional rent payable by the TENANT
shall be equal to 50% of savings calculated using the above-mentioned methods and formulas, established on an annual basis commencing
from the first day of the month following completion by the LANDLORD of works aimed at improving the energy performance of the
leased premises.

 

The TENANT shall promptly provide the LANDLORD
with bills corresponding to the actual consumption for each reference period (gas and electricity).

 

The resulting amount shall be increased
by VAT at the applicable rate. This additional rent, taking into account its method of calculation, shall not be subject to an
annual adjustment stipulated in Article 7 below. It shall be invoiced annually by the LANDLORD upon receipt of relevant supporting
documents, and no later than three months after the end of the annual reference period.

 

7. Rent Adjustment

 

The Parties expressly agree that the rent
will be adjusted annually on the anniversary of the effective date of this lease, according to the annual change in the index of
construction costs as determined by the National Institute for Statistics and Economic Studies. In order to calculate such change
on the first anniversary date hereof, it is expressly agreed that the initial base index to be considered will be that prevailing
in Q4 2014 or 1.625; the reference index will be that of the same quarter of 2015. The next annual adjustment will be based on
the annual change in the index for the first quarter, calculated using the following formula:

 

	 	Adjusted rent = rent following the last
calculation x 	  index for the first quarter of the year to which the adjustment relates
	 	 	index for the first quarter of the previous
year

    Page 17 of 24

     

    

Indexation will take effect without the
parties being given prior notice thereof. If the publication of the index is delayed, the TENANT shall temporarily pay the rent
equal to that applied in the previous quarter; any adjustment will be made as soon as the index is published.

 

The Parties expressly agree that such change
may in no event lead to the rent being reduced. If the index falls, the rent shall be maintained at an amount applicable at the
adjustment date, to which the TENANT expressly consents.

 

Any new index that might replace the reference
index shall apply mutatis mutandis to this lease.

 

8. Security Deposit

  

To secure the full and faithful performance
by the TENANT of its obligations hereunder, the TENANT is obliged to deposit with the LANDLORD the sum of EUR 75,764.90 corresponding
to a quarterly base rent, as a security deposit. The said amount has already been paid to the LANDLORD under the initial lease
between the Parties and remains with the LANDLORD in accordance with the foregoing.

 

The security deposit is provided to the
LANDLORD as a pledge with transfer of title defined in Article 2341 et seq. of the French Civil Code. Pursuant to Article 2341
(2) of the French Civil Code, the parties to this lease agree that the LANDLORD shall be released from the obligation to keep the
amount deposited with it as a pledge separated from similar things owned by it, provided that it shall return the said amount in
accordance with this lease.

 

The pledge is specifically established
to secure the performance by the TENANT of all terms, covenants and obligations under this lease and the payment of all sums as
may be due from it for any reason whatsoever at the end of the lease.

 

The TENANT may not, therefore, apply the
deposit to pay the rent or any other amount due to the LANDLORD during the lease. The Parties expressly agree that the security
deposit shall not bear interest.

 

Upon each adjustment of the rent, the security
deposit will be immediately increased by the same amount, so that it corresponds to a three-month's principal rent. Consequently,
the TENANT shall, during the first period of the adjusted rent, pay an amount necessary to adjust the security deposit.

 

If the security deposit is applied by the
LANFLORD for any reason whatsoever, the TENANT shall restore it to the agreed amount.

 

The security deposit shall remain with
the LANDLORD throughout the lease term and shall be returned to the TENANT at the end of the lease, upon surrender of the premises
and delivery of the keys, production of proof of payment of all taxes or charges, completion of repairs at TENANT's expense and
deduction, if any, of monies which may then be due and payable or which may demanded from the LANDLORD for any reason whatsoever.

 

    Page 18 of 24

     

    

At the request of the TENANT, accepted
by the LANDLORD, a first demand guarantee issued by a reputable bank, covering a six-month rent and applicable during the lease
term and any renewal thereof, may replace the security deposit, as long as it is issued in the form attached hereto and with the
express consent of the LANDLORD as regards the terms of the guarantee and the guarantor.

SUMMARY COMPENSATION SHEET

 

The following summarizes certain compensation
decisions taken by the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") and/or the Board of Directors ("Board") of
Shoe Carnival, Inc. (the "Company"), with respect to the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers
and directors.

 

1. 2016 Base Salary

 

The Committee increased the base salaries of
each of the named executive officers set forth below to keep each of their respective salaries competitive and, in the case of
Mr. Scibetta, to reflect his promotion to Chief Merchandising Officer, as well as his leadership of our new product initiatives
and his achievements related to successfully managing our inventories in a difficult retail environment. The following base salaries
are effective for the Company’s named executive officers for fiscal 2016:

 

	        

Name	 	

Title	 	Base

Salary	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Clifton E. Sifford	 	President and Chief Executive Officer	 	$	625,000	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	W. Kerry Jackson	 	Senior Executive Vice President, Chief Operating and Financial Officer and Treasurer	 	$	535,600	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Timothy T. Baker	 	Executive Vice President -

Store Operations	 	$	515,000	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Carl N. Scibetta	 	Executive Vice President – Chief Merchandising Officer	 	$	450,000	 

 

2. Grants of Restricted Stock

 

The Committee approved grants of restricted
stock to the Company's named executive officers and other key personnel under the Shoe Carnival, Inc. 2000 Stock Option and Incentive
Plan (the “2000 Plan”). Grants to the Company's named executive officers were as follows:

 

	Name	Time-Based 

Restricted Shares 

Awarded	Performance-Based 

Restricted Shares 

Awarded
	Clifton E. Sifford	8,726	30,281
	W. Kerry Jackson	4,994	20,187
	Timothy T. Baker	4,254	16,150
	Carl N. Scibetta	4,827	16,150

 

The performance-based restricted shares will
vest on March 31, 2019 if the Company achieves a specified level of annual earnings per diluted share in any of fiscal 2016, 2017
or 2018 and the named executive officer maintains continuous service with the Company through March 31, 2019. As a result of the
improvement in the Company’s financial performance and the success of its multi-channel initiatives in fiscal 2015, the time-based
restricted shares were granted to recognize each named executive officer’s level of performance and job responsibility in
fiscal 2015 and for retention purposes. One-half of the time-based restricted shares will vest at the end of each of fiscal 2016
and fiscal 2017, provided the named executive officer maintains continuous service with the Company through that date.

 

    

     

    

3. Annual Incentive Compensation for Fiscal
2016

 

The Committee established the performance criteria
and targets for the fiscal 2016 bonus payable in fiscal 2017 under the Company's 2016 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan. The
performance criterion is operating income before bonus expense. Subjective factors based on an executive's individual performance
can reduce an executive's bonus. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Sifford's bonus target is 80% of his salary but he can earn up
to 125% of his salary if all performance targets are met. The bonus target for Messrs. Baker, Jackson, and Scibetta is 60% of their
salary but they can earn up to 100% of their salary if all performance targets are met.

 

4. Director's Compensation

 

The Company pays to non-employee Directors
an annual cash retainer of $45,000. Committee chairs receive an additional annual cash retainer as follows: $15,000 for the Audit
Committee and $7,500 each for the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Company’s
Lead Director receives additional annual compensation of $3,000. All amounts paid to the non-employee Directors are to be paid
quarterly in arrears. The Company also reimburses all Directors for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection
with meetings of the Board.

 

Non-employee Directors will annually receive
restricted shares valued at $45,000 as of the date of grant under the 2000 Plan. The restrictions on the shares lapse on January
2nd of the year following the year in which the grant was made.
