 WITNESSETH: Owner hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby hires from Owner a portion of the twenty-third (23rd) floor as shown hatched on Exhibit A annexed hereto (the
“premises” or “demised premises”) in the building known as 60 Hudson Street (the “Building”), in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, for the term (the “Term”) of approximately ten (10) years and
five (5) months, to commence on the date hereof (the “Commencement Date”) and to expire on October 31, 2007 (the “Expiration Date”) (or until such Term shall cease and expire as hereinafter provided), at the fixed
annual rental rate (the “Fixed Rent”) of [***] per annum, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. 
 which Tenant agrees to pay
in lawful money of the United States which shall be legal tender in payment of all debts and dues, public and private, at the time of payment, in equal monthly installments in advance on the first day of each month during said term, at the office of
Owner or such other place as Owner may designate, without any set off or deduction whatsoever, except that Tenant shall pay the first                 monthly installment
on the execution hereof (unless this lease be a renewal). 
 In the event that, at the commencement of the term of this lease,
or thereafter, Tenant shall be in default in the payment of rent to Owner pursuant to the terms of another lease with Owner or with Owner’s predecessor in interest, Owner may at Owner’s option and without notice to Tenant add the amount of
such arrears to any monthly installment of rent payable hereunder and the same shall be payable to Owner as additional rent. 
 The parties hereto, for themselves, their heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns, hereby covenant as follows: 
 Rent: 1.    Tenant shall pay the rent as above and as hereinafter provided. 
 Occupancy: 2.    Tenant shall use and occupy the demised premises for general office purposes, and, to the extent permitted by the certificate of occupancy for the

3.    1 If any mechanic’s
lien is filed against the demised premises, or the building of which the same forms a part, for work claimed to have been done for, or materials furnished to, Tenant, whether or not done pursuant to this article, the same shall be discharged by
Tenant within thirty days thereafter, at Tenant’s expense, by payment or filing the bond required by law. All fixtures and all paneling, partitions, railings and like installations, installed in the premises at any time, either by Tenant or by
Owner on Tenant’s behalf, shall, upon installation, become the property of Owner and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the demised premises unless Owner, by notice to Tenant no later than twenty days prior to the dates fixed as the
termination of this lease, elects to relinquish Owner’s rights thereto and to have them removed by Tenant, in which event the same shall be removed from the premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the lease, at Tenant’s expense.
Nothing in this Article shall be construed to give Owner title to or to prevent Tenant’s removal of trade fixtures, moveable office furniture and equipment, but upon removal of any such from the premises or upon removal of other installations
as may be required by Owner, Tenant shall immediately and at its expense, repair and restore the premises to the condition existing prior to installation and repair any damage to the demised premises or the building due to such removal. All property
permitted or required to be removed, by Tenant at the end of the term remaining in the premises after Tenant’s removal shall be deemed abandoned and may, at the election of Owner, either be retained as Owner’s property or may be removed
from the premises by Owner, at Tenant’s expense. 
 Maintenance and Repairs:
4.    Tenant shall, throughout the term of this lease, take good care of the demised premises and the fixtures and appurtenances therein. Tenant shall be responsible for all damage or injury to the demised premises or any
other part of the building and the systems and equipment thereof, whether requiring structural or nonstructural repairs caused by or resulting from carelessness, omission, neglect or improper conduct of Tenant. Tenant’s subtenants, agents,
employees, invitees or licensees, or which arise out of any work, labor, service or equipment done for or supplied to Tenant or any subtenant    2 or arising out of the installation, use or operation of the property or equipment of Tenant or any subtenant. Tenant
shall also repair all damage to the building and the demised premises caused by the moving of Tenant’s fixtures, furniture and equipment. Tenant shall promptly make, at Tenant’s expense, all repairs in and to the demised premises for which
Tenant is responsible, using only the contractor for the trade or trades in question, selected from a list of at least two contractors per trade submitted by Owner. Any other repairs in or to the building or the facilities and systems thereof for
which Tenant is responsible shall be performed by Owner at the Tenant’s expense. Owner shall maintain in good working order and repair the exterior and the structural portions of the building, including the structural portions of its demised
premises, and the public portions of the building interior and the building plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilating systems (to the extent such systems presently exist) serving the demised premises. Tenant agrees to give prompt notice of any
defective condition in the premises for which Owner may be responsible hereunder. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business
arising from Owner or others making repairs, alterations, additions or improvements in or to any portion of the building or the demised premises or in and to the fixtures, appurtenances or equipment thereof.    3 It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any
setoff or reduction of rent by reason of any failure of Owner to comply with the covenants of this or any other article of this Lease. Tenant agrees that Tenant’s sole remedy at law in such instance will be by way of an action for damages for
breach of contract. The provisions of this Article 4 shall not apply in the case of fire or other casualty which are dealt with in Article 9 hereof. 
 Window Cleaning: 5.    Tenant will not clean nor require, permit, suffer or allow any window in the demised premises to be cleaned from the outside in violation of Section 202 of the Labor Law or any
other applicable law or of the Rules of the Board of Standards and Appeals, or of any other Board or body having or asserting jurisdiction. 
 Requirements of Law, Fire Insurance, Floor Loads: 6.    Prior to the commencement of the lease term, if Tenant is then in possession, and at all times thereafter, Tenant,
at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall promptly comply with all present and future laws, orders and regulations of all state, federal, municipal and local governments, departments, commissions and boards and any direction of any public
officer pursuant to law, and all orders, rules and regulations of the New York Board of Fire Underwriters, Insurance Services Office, or any similar body which shall impose any violation, order or duty upon Owner or Tenant with respect to the
demised premises,    4 out of
Tenant’s manner of use thereof, (including Tenant’s permitted use) or, with respect to the building if arising out of Tenant’s manner of use of the premises or the building (including the use permitted under the lease). Nothing herein
shall require Tenant to make structural repairs or alterations unless Tenant has, by its manner of use of the demised premises or method of operation therein, violated any such laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or requirements with
respect thereto. Tenant may, after securing Owner to

Owner’s satisfaction against all damages, interest, penalties and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees, by cash deposit or by surety bond in an amount and
in a company satisfactory to Owner, contest and appeal any such laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations or requirements provided same is done with all reasonable promptness and provided such appeal shall not subject Owner to prosecution for a
criminal offense or constitute a default under any lease or mortgage under which Owner may be obligated, or cause the demised premises or any part thereof to be condemned or vacated. Tenant shall not do or permit any act or thing to be done in or to
the demised premises which is contrary to law, or which will invalidate or be in conflict with public liability, fire or other policies of insurance at any time carried by or for the benefit of Owner with respect to the demised premises or the
building of which the demised premises form a part, or which shall or might subject Owner to any liability or responsibility to any person or for property damage. Tenant shall not keep anything in the demised premises except as now or hereafter
permitted by the Fire Department, Board of Fire Underwriters, Fire Insurance Rating Organization or other authority having jurisdiction, and then only in such manner and such quantity so as not to increase the rate for fire insurance applicable to
the building, nor use the premises in a manner which will increase the insurance rate for the building or any property located therein over that in effect prior to the commencement of Tenant’s occupancy. Tenant shall pay all costs, expenses,
fines, penalties, or damages, which may be imposed upon Owner by reason of Tenant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this article and if by reason of such failure the fire insurance rate shall, at the beginning of this lease or at any
time thereafter, be higher than it otherwise would be, then Tenant shall reimburse Owner, as additional rent hereunder, for that portion of all fire insurance premiums thereafter paid by Owner which shall have been charged because of such failure by
Tenant. In any action or proceeding wherein Owner and Tenant are parties, a schedule or “make-up” of rate for the building or demised premises issued by the New York Fire Insurance Exchange, or other body making fire insurance rates
applicable to said premises shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated and of the several items and charges in the fire insurance rates then applicable to said premises. Tenant shall not place a load upon any floor of the demised
premises exceeding the floor load per square foot area which it was designed to carry and which is allowed by law. Owner reserves the right to prescribe the weight and position of all safes, business machines and mechanical equipment. Such
installations shall be placed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, in settings sufficient, in Owner’s    5 judgment, to absorb and prevent vibration, noise and annoyance. 
 Subordination: 7.    This lease is subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases and to all mortgages which
may now or hereafter affect such leases or the real property of which demised premises are a part and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of any such underlying leases and mortgages. This clause shall be
self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required by any ground or underlying lessor or by any mortgagee, affecting any lease or the real property of which the demised premises are a part. In confirmation of such
subordination, Tenant shall from time to time execute promptly any certificate that Owner may request. 
 Property Loss,
Damage Reimbursement Indemnity: 8.    Owner or its agents shall not be liable for any damage to property of Tenant or of others entrusted to employees of the building, nor for loss of or damage to any property of
Tenant by theft or otherwise, nor for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from any cause of whatsoever nature, unless caused by or due to the negligence of Owner, its agents, servants or employees. Owner or its agents will not be
liable for any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in, upon or about said building or caused by operations in construction of any private, public or quasi public work. If at any time any windows of the demised premises are temporarily
closed, darkened or bricked up (or permanently closed, darkened or bricked up, if required by law) for any reason whatsoever including, but not limited to Owner’s own acts, Owner shall not be liable for any damage Tenant may sustain thereby and
Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation therefor nor abatement or diminution of rent nor shall the same release Tenant from its obligations hereunder nor constitute an eviction. Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Owner against and
from all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, claims, costs and expenses for which Owner shall not be reimbursed by insurance, including reasonable attorneys fees, paid, suffered or incurred as a result of any breach by Tenant,
Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, invitees, or licensees, of any covenant or condition of this lease, or the carelessness, negligence or improper conduct of the Tenant, Tenant’s agents, contractors, employees, invitees or licensees.
Tenant’s liability under this lease extends to the acts and omissions of any sub-tenant, and any agent, contractor, employee, invitee or licensee of any sub-tenant,    5a In case any action or proceeding is brought against    5b by reason of any such claim,    5c, upon written notice from    5d, will, at    5e expense, resist or defend such action or proceeding by counsel
approved by counsel5d in writing, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld. 
 Destruction, Fire and Other Casualty: 9.    (a) If the
demised premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate notice thereof to Owner and this lease shall continue in full force and effect except as hereinafter set forth. (b) If the demised
premises are partially damaged or rendered partially unusable by fire or other casualty, the damages thereto shall be repaired by and at the expense of Owner and the rent and other items of additional rent, until such repair shall be substantially
completed, shall be apportioned from the day following the casualty according to the part of the premises which is usable. (c) If the demised premises are totally damaged or rendered wholly unusable by fire or other casualty, then the rent and
other items of additional rent as hereinafter expressly provided shall be proportionately paid up to the time of the casualty and thenceforth shall cease until the date when the premises shall have been repaired and restored by Owner (or sooner
reoccupied in part by Tenant    6 then
rent shall be apportioned as provided in subsection (b) above), subject to Owner’s right to elect not to restore the same as hereinafter provided, (d) If the demised premises are rendered wholly unusable or (whether or not the demised
premises are damaged in whole or in part) if the building shall be so damaged that Owner shall decide to demolish it or to rebuild it, then, in any of such events, Owner may elect to terminate this lease by written notice to Tenant, given within 90
days after such fire or casualty, or 30 days after adjustment of the insurance claim for such fire or casualty, whichever is sooner, specifying a date for the expiration of the lease, which date shall not be more than 60 days after the giving of
such notice, and upon the date specified in such notice the term of this lease shall expire as fully and completely as if such date were the date set forth above for the termination of this lease and Tenant shall forthwith quit, surrender and vacate
the premises without prejudice however, to Landlord’s rights and remedies against Tenant under the lease provisions in effect prior to such termination, and any rent owing shall be paid up to such date and any payments of rent made by Tenant
which were on account of any period subsequent to such date shall be returned to Tenant. Unless Owner    7 shall serve a termination notice as provided for herein, Owner shall make the repairs and restorations under the
conditions of (b) and (c) hereof, with all reasonable expedition, subject to delays due to adjustment of insurance claims, labor troubles and causes beyond Owner’s control. After any such casualty, Tenant shall cooperate with
Owner’s restoration by removing from the premises as promptly as reasonably possible, all of Tenant’s salvageable inventory and moveable equipment, furniture, and other property. Tenant’s liability for rent shall resume five
(5) days after written notice from Owner that the premises are substantially ready for Tenant’s occupancy. (e) Nothing contained hereinabove shall relieve Tenant from liability that may exist as a result of damage from fire or other
casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, including Owner’s obligation to restore under subparagraph (b) above, each party shall look first to any insurance in its favor before making any claim against the other party for recovery for loss
or damage resulting from fire or other casualty, and to the extent that such insurance is in force and collectible and to the extent permitted by law, Owner and Tenant each hereby releases and waives all right of recovery with respect to
subparagraphs (b), (d), and (e) above, against the other or any one claiming through or under each of them by way of subrogation or otherwise. The release and waiver herein referred to shall be deemed to include any loss or damage to the
demised premises and/or to any personal property, equipment, trade fixtures, goods and merchandise located therein. The foregoing release and waiver shall be in force only if both releasers’ insurance policies contain a clause providing that
such a release or waiver shall not invalidate the insurance. If, and to the extent, that such waiver can be obtained only by the payment of additional premiums, then the party benefiting from the waiver shall pay such premium within ten days after
written demand or shall be deemed to have agreed that the party obtaining insurance coverage shall be free of any further obligation under the provisions hereof with respect to waiver of subrogation. Tenant acknowledges that Owner will not carry
insurance on Tenant’s furniture and/or furnishings or any fixtures or equipment, improvements, or appurtenances removable by Tenant and agrees that Owner will not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. (f) Tenant
hereby waives the provisions of Section 227 of the Real Property Law and agrees that the provisions of this article shall govern and control in lieu thereof. 
 Eminent Domain: 10.    If the whole or any    8 part of the demised premises shall be acquired or condemned by Eminent Domain for any public or quasi public use or
purpose, then and in that event, the term of this lease shall cease and terminate from the date of title vesting in such proceeding and Tenant shall have no claim for the value of any unexpired term of said lease and assigns to Owner, Tenant’s
entire interest in any such award. Tenant shall have the right to make an independent claim to the condemning authority for the value of Tenant’s moving expenses and personal property, trade fixtures and equipment, provided Tenant is entitled
pursuant to the terms of the lease to remove such property, trade fixture and equipment at the end of the term and provided further such claim does not reduce Owner’s award. 
 Assignment, Mortgage, Etc.: 11.    Tenant, for itself, its heirs, distributees, executors,
administrators, legal representative, successor and assigns, expressly covenants that it shall not assign, mortgage or encumber this agreement, nor underlet, or suffer or permit the demised premises or any part thereof to be used by others, without
the prior written consent of Owner in each instance.    9 Transfer of the majority of the stock of a corporate Tenant or the majority partnership interest of a partnership Tenant shall be deemed an assignment. If this lease be assigned, or if the demised
premises or any part thereof be underlet or occupied by anybody other than Tenant, Owner may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, under tenant or occupant, and apply the net amount collected to the rent herein reserved, but no
such assignment, underletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, under tenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of covenants on
the part of Tenant herein contained. The consent by Owner to an assignment or underletting shall not in any wise be construed to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent in writing of Owner to any further assignment or underletting.

 Electric Current: 12.     Rates and conditions in respect to submetering or rent
inclusion, as the case may be, to be added in 

 RIDER attached hereto. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric current shall not exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or the risers or wiring installation and Tenant may
not use any electrical equipment which, in Owner’s opinion, reasonably exercised, will overload such installations or interfere with the use thereof by other tenants of the building. The change at any time of the character of electric service
shall in no wise make Owner liable or responsible to Tenant, for any loss, damages or expenses which Tenant may sustain.    10 
 Access to Premises: 13.     Owner or Owner’s agents shall have the right (but shall not be obligated) to enter the demised premises in any emergency at any time, and, at other reasonable
times,    11 to examine the same and
to make such repairs, replacements and improvements as Owner may deem necessary and reasonably desirable to the demised premises or to any other portion of the building or which Owner may elect to perform. Tenant shall permit Owner to use and
maintain and replace pipes and conduits in and through the demised premises and to erect new pipes and conduits therein provided they are concealed within the walls, floor, or ceiling. Owner may, during the progress of any work in the demised
premises, take all necessary materials and equipment into said premises without the same constituting an eviction nor shall the Tenant be entitled to any abatement of rent while such work is in progress nor to any damages by reason of loss or
interruption of business or otherwise. Throughout the term hereof Owner shall have the right to enter the demised premises at reasonable hours    11 for the purpose of showing the 
  
 

 Rider to be added if necessary. 

 same to prospective purchasers or mortgagees of the building, and during the last six
months of the term for the purpose of showing the same to prospective tenants. If Tenant is not present to open and permit an entry into the demised premises, Owner or Owner’s agents may enter the same whenever such entry may be necessary or
permissible by master key or    12
forcibly and provided reasonable care is exercised to safeguard Tenant’s property, such entry shall not render Owner or its agents liable therefor, nor in any event shall the obligations of Tenant hereunder be affected. 
 Vault, Vault Space, Area: 14.    No Vaults, vault space or area, whether or not enclosed or covered, not within the
property line of the building is leased hereunder, anything contained in or indicated on any sketch, blue print or plan, or anything contained elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding. Owner makes no representation as to the location
of the property line of the building. All vaults and vault space and all such areas not within the property line of the building, which Tenant may be permitted to use and/or occupy, is to be used and/or occupied under a revocable license, and if any
such license be revoked, or if the amount of such space or area be diminished or required by any federal, state or municipal authority or public utility, Owner shall not be subject to any liability nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or
diminution or abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation, diminution or requisition be deemed constructive or actual eviction. Any tax, fee or charge of municipal authorities for such vault or area shall be paid by Tenant. 
 Occupancy: 15.    Tenant will not at any time use or occupy the demised premises in violation of the certificate of
occupancy issued for the building of which the demised premises are a part. Tenant has inspected the premises and accepts them as is, subject to the riders annexed hereto with respect to Owner’s work, if any. In any event, Owner makes no
representation as to the condition of the premises and Tenant agrees to accept the same subject to violations, whether or not of record. 
 Bankruptcy: 16.    (a) Anything elsewhere in this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, this lease may be cancelled by Owner by the sending of a written notice to
Tenant within a reasonable time after the happening of any one or more of the following events: (1) the commencement of a case in bankruptcy or under the laws of any state naming Tenant as the debtor;    13 or (2) the making by Tenant of an assignment or any other
arrangement for the benefit of creditors under any state statute. Neither Tenant nor any person claiming through or under Tenant, or by reason of any statute or order of court, shall thereafter be entitled to possession of the premises demised but
shall forthwith quit and surrender the premises. If this lease shall be assigned in accordance with its terms, the provisions of this Article 16 shall be applicable only to the party then owning Tenant’s interest in this lease. 
 (b) it is stipulated and agreed that in the event of the termination of this lease pursuant to (a) hereof, Owner
shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provisions of this lease to the contrary, be entitled to recover from Tenant as and for liquidated damages an amount equal to the difference between the rent reserved hereunder for the unexpired portion of
the term demised and the fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the same period. In the computation of such damages the difference between any installment of rent becoming due hereunder after the date of termination and the
fair and reasonable rental value of the demised premises for the period for which such installment was payable shall be discounted to the date of termination at the    14 rate per annum. If such premises or any part thereof be re-let by the Owner for the unexpired term of
said lease, or any part thereof, before presentation of proof of such liquidated damages to any court, commission or tribunal, the amount of rent reserved upon such re-letting shall be deemed to be the fair and reasonable rental value for the part
or the whole of the premises so re-let during the term of the re-letting. Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of the Owner to prove for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination, an amount equal to the
maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law in effect at the time when, and governing the proceedings in which, such damages are to be proved, whether or not such amount be greater, equal to, or less than the amount of the difference referred to
above. 
 Default: 17.    (1) If Tenant defaults in fulfilling any of the covenants
of this lease other than the covenants for the payment of rent or additional rent; or if the demised premises become vacant or deserted; or if any execution or attachment shall be issued against Tenant or any of Tenant’s property whereupon the
demised premises shall be taken or occupied by someone other than Tenant; or if this lease be rejected under §235 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code (bankruptcy code); or if Tenant shall fail to move into or take possession of the premises within
thirty (30) days after the commencement of the term of this lease, then, in any one or more of such events, upon Owner serving a written     15 days notice upon Tenant specifying the nature of said default and upon the expiration of said    
15 days, if Tenant shall have failed to comply with or
remedy such default, or if the said default or omission complained of shall be of a nature that the same cannot be completely cured or remedied within said    15 day period, and if Tenant shall not have diligently commenced curing such default within such    
15 day period, and shall not thereafter with reasonable
diligence and in good faith, proceed to remedy or cure such default, then Owner may serve a written five (5) days’ notice of cancellation of this lease upon Tenant, and upon the expiration of said five (5) days this lease and the term
thereunder shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the expiration of such five (5) day period were the day herein definitely fixed for the end and expiration of this lease and the term thereof and Tenant shall then quit and surrender
the demised premises to Owner but Tenant shall remain liable as hereinafter provided. 
 
 (2) If the notice provided for in (1) hereof shall have been given, and the term shall expire as aforesaid; or if
Tenant shall make default in the payment of the rent reserved herein or any item of additional rent herein mentioned or any part of either or in making any other payment herein required    16 then and in any of such events Owner may without notice, re-enter
the demised premises either by force or otherwise, and dispossess Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise, and the legal representative of Tenant or other occupant of demised premises and remove their effects and hold the premises as if this
lease had not been made, and Tenant hereby waives the service of notice of intention to re-enter or to institute legal proceedings to that end. If Tenant shall make default hereunder prior to the date fixed as the commencement of any renewal or
extension of this lease, Owner may cancel and terminate such renewal or extension agreement by written notice. 
 Remedies of Owner and
Waiver of Redemption: 18.    In case of any such default, re-entry, expiration and/or dispossess by summary proceedings or otherwise, (a) the rent shall become due thereupon and be paid up to the time of such
re-entry, dispossess and/or expiration, (b) Owner may re-let the premises or any part or parts thereof, either in the name of Owner or otherwise, for a term or terms, which may at Owner’s option be less than or exceed the period which
would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease and may grant concessions or free rent or charge a higher rental than that in this lease, and/or (c) Tenant or the legal representatives of Tenant shall also pay Owner as
liquidated damages for the failure of Tenant to observe and perform said Tenant’s covenants herein contained, any deficiency between the rent hereby reserved and/or covenanted to be paid and the net amount, if any, of the rents collected on
account of the lease or leases of the demised premises for each month of the period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this lease. The failure of Owner to re-let the premises or any part or parts thereof shall not
release or affect Tenant’s liability for damages. In computing such liquidated damages there shall be added to the said deficiency such expenses as Owner may incur in connection with re-letting, such as legal expenses, reasonable
attorneys’ fees, brokerage, advertising and for keeping the demised premises in good order or for preparing the same for re-letting. Any such liquidated damages shall be paid in monthly installments by Tenant on the rent day specified in this
lease and any suit brought to collect the amount of the deficiency for any month shall not prejudice in any way the rights of Owner to collect the deficiency for any subsequent month by a similar proceeding. Owner, in putting the demised premises in
good order or preparing the same for re-rental may, at Owner’s option, make such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations in the demised premises as Owner, in Owner’s sole judgment, considers advisable and necessary for the
purpose of re-letting the demised premises, and the making of such alterations, repairs, replacements, and/or decorations shall not operate or be construed to release Tenant from liability hereunder as aforesaid. Owner shall in no event be liable in
any way whatsoever for failure to re-let the demised premises, or in the event that the demised premises are re-let, for failure to collect the rent thereof under such re-letting, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive any excess, if
any, of such net rents collected over the sums payable by Tenant to Owner hereunder. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Tenant of any of the covenants or provisions hereof, Owner shall have the right of injunction and the right to
invoke any remedy allowed at law or in equity as if re-entry, summary proceedings and other remedies were not herein provided for. Mention in this lease of any particular remedy, shall not preclude Owner from any other remedy, in law or in equity.
Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Owner obtaining possession of demised premises, by
reason of the violation by Tenant of any of the covenants and conditions of this lease, or otherwise. 
 Fees and
Expenses: 19.    If Tenant shall default in the observance or performance of any term or covenant on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed under or by virtue of any of the terms or provisions in any article of this
lease, after notice if required and upon expiration of any applicable grace period if any, (except in an emergency), then, unless otherwise provided elsewhere in this lease, Owner may immediately or at any time thereafter and without notice perform
the obligation of Tenant thereunder. If Owner, in connection with the foregoing or in connection with any default by Tenant in the covenant to pay rent hereunder, makes any expenditures or incurs any obligations for the payment of money, including
but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, in instituting, prosecuting or defending any action or proceeding, and prevails in any such action or proceeding then Tenant will reimburse Owner for such sums so paid or obligations incurred with
interest and costs. The foregoing expenses incurred by reason of Tenant’s default shall be deemed to be additional rent hereunder and shall be paid by Tenant to Owner within    17 days of rendition of any bill or statement to Tenant therefor. If
Tenant’s lease term shall have expired at the time of making of such expenditures or incurring of such obligations, such sums shall be recoverable by Owner, as damages. 
 Building Alterations and Management: 20.    Owner shall have the right at any time without the same
constituting an eviction and without incurring liability to Tenant therefor to change the arrangement and/or location of public entrances, passageways, doors, doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the
building    18 and to change the name,
number or designation by which the building may be known. There shall be no allowance to Tenant for diminution of rental value and no liability on the part of Owner by reason of inconvenience, annoyance or injury to business arising from Owner or
other Tenants making any repairs in the building or any such alterations, additions and improvements. Furthermore, Tenant shall not have any claim against Owner by reason of Owner’s imposition of such controls of the manner of access to the
building by Tenant’s social or business visitors as the Owner may deem necessary for the security of the building and its occupants. 
 No Representations by Owner: 21.    Neither Owner nor Owner’s agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of the building, the land upon which it is erected or the
demised premises, the rents, leases, expenses of operation or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the premises except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise
except as expressly set forth in the provisions of this lease. Tenant has inspected the building and the demised premises and is thoroughly acquainted with their condition and agrees to take the same “as is” and acknowledges that the
taking of possession of the demised premises by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence that the said premises and the building of which the same form a part were in good and satisfactory condition at the time such possession was so taken, except as to
latent defects. All understandings and agreements heretofore made between the parties hereto are merged in this contract, which alone fully and completely expresses the agreement between Owner and Tenant and any executory agreement

 
hereafter made shall be ineffective to change, modify, discharge or effect an abandonment of it in whole or in part, unless such executory agreement is in writing and signed by the party against
whom enforcement of the change, modification, discharge or abandonment is sought. 
 End of Term: 22.    Upon the
expiration or other termination of the term of this lease, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Owner the demised premises, broom clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and damages which Tenant is not required to repair as provided
elsewhere in this lease excepted, and Tenant shall remove all its property. Tenant’s obligation to observe or perform this covenant shall survive the expiration or other termination of this lease. If the last day of the term of this Lease or
any renewal thereof, falls on Sunday, this lease shall expire at noon on the preceding Saturday unless it be a legal holiday in which case it shall expire at noon on the preceding business day. 
 Quiet Enjoyment: 23.    Owner covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying the rent and additional rent and observing
and performing all the terms, covenants and conditions, on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed, Tenant may peaceably and quietly enjoy the premises hereby demised, subject, nevertheless, to the terms and conditions of this lease
including, but not limited to, Article 31 hereof and to the ground leases, underlying leases and mortgages hereinbefore mentioned. 
 Failure
to Give Possession: 24.    If Owner is unable to give possession of the demised premises on the date of the commencement of the term hereof, because of the holding-over or retention of possession of any tenant, undertenant or
occupants or if the demised premises are located in a building being constructed, because such building has not been sufficiently completed to make the premises ready for occupancy or because of the fact that a certificate of occupancy has not been
procured or for any other reason. Owner shall not be subject to any liability for failure to give possession on said date and the validity of the lease shall not be impaired under such circumstances, nor shall the same be construed in any wise to
extend the term of this lease, but the rent payable hereunder shall be abated (provided Tenant is not responsible for Owner’s inability to obtain possession or complete construction) until after Owner shall have given Tenant written notice that
the Owner is able to deliver possession in condition required by this lease. If permission is given to Tenant to enter into the possession of the demises premises or to occupy premises other than the demised premises prior to the date specified as
the commencement of the term of this lease, Tenant covenants and agrees that such possession and/or occupancy shall be deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of this lease except the obligation to pay the fixed annual
rent set forth in the preamble to this lease. The provisions of this article are intended to constitute “an express provision to the contrary” within the meaning of Section 223-a of the New York Real Property Law. 
 No Waiver: 25.    The failure of Owner to seek redress for violation of, or to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant
or condition of this lease or of any of the Rules or Regulations, set forth or hereafter adopted by Owner, shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have originally constituted a violation from having all the force and effect of an original
violation. The receipt by Owner of rent and/or additional rent with knowledge of the breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach and no provision of this lease shall be deemed to have been waived by Owner unless
such waiver be in writing signed by Owner. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Owner of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement or
statement of any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Owner may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Owner’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any
other remedy in this lease provided. No act or thing done by Owner or Owner’s agents during the term hereby demised shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of said premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid unless
in writing signed by Owner. No employee of Owner or Owner’s agent shall have any power to accept the keys of said premises prior to the termination of the lease and the delivery of keys to any such agent or employee shall not operate as a
termination of the lease or a surrender of the premises. 
 Waiver of Trial by Jury: 26.    It is mutually agreed by
and between Owner and Tenant that the respective parties hereto shall and they hereby do waive trial by jury in any action proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other (except for personal injury or property
damage) on any matters whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant, Tenant’s use of or occupancy of said premises, and any emergency statutory or any other statutory remedy. It is
further mutually agreed that in the event Owner commences any proceeding or action for possession including a summary proceeding for possession of the premises. Tenant will not interpose any counterclaim of whatever nature or description in any such
proceeding including a counterclaim under Article 4 except for statutory mandatory counterclaims. 
 Inability to
Perform: 27.    This Lease and the obligation of Tenant to pay rent hereunder and perform all of the other covenants and agreements hereunder on part of Tenant to be performed shall in no wise be affected, impaired or excused
because Owner is unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this lease or to supply or is delayed in supplying any service expressly or impliedly to be supplied or is unable to make, or is delayed in making any repair, additions, alterations or
decorations or is unable to supply or is delayed in supplying any equipment, fixures, or other materials if Owner is prevented or delayed from so doing by reason of strike or labor troubles or any cause whatsoever    19 including, but not limited to, government preemption or restrictions
or by reason of any rule, order or regulation of any department or subdivision thereof of any government agency or by reason of the conditions which have been or are affected, either directly or indirectly, by war or other emergency. 
 Bills and Notices: 28.    Except as otherwise in this lease provided, a bill, statement, notice or
communication which Owner may desire or be required to give to Tenant, shall be deemed sufficiently given or rendered if, in writing, delivered to Tenant personally or sent by registered or certified mail addressed to Tenant at the building of which
the demised premises form a part or at the last known residence address or business address of Tenant, and the time of the rendition of such bill or statement and of the giving of such notice or communication shall be deemed to be the time when the
same is delivered to Tenant.    20 Any
notice by Tenant to Owner must be served by registered or certified mail addressed to Owner at the address first hereinabove given or at such other address as Owner shall designate by written notice. 
 Services Provided by Owners: 29.    As long as    21 Owner shall provide: (a) necessary elevator facilities on
business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and have one elevator subject to call at all other times; (b) heat to the demised premises when and as required by law, on business days from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.; (c) water for ordinary lavatory purposes,
but if Tenant uses or consumes water for any other purposes or in unusual quantities (of which fact Owner shall be the sole judge), Owner may install a water meter at Tenant’s expense which Tenant shall thereafter maintain at Tenant’s
expense in good working order and repair to register such water consumption and Tenant shall pay for water consumed as shown on said meter as additional rent as and when bills are rendered; (d) the demised premises are to be kept clean by
Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Owner and no one other than persons approved by Owner shall be permitted to enter said premises or the building of which they are a part for such purpose. Tenant shall pay
Owner the cost of removal of any of Tenant’s refuse and rubbish from the building; (e) (f) Owner reserves the right to stop services of the heating, elevators, plumbing, electric, power systems or other services, if any, when
necessary by reason of accident or for repairs, alterations, replacements or improvements necessary or desirable in the judgment of Owner for as long as may be reasonably required by reason thereof. If the building of which the demised premises are
a part supplies manually operated elevator service, Owner at any time may substitute automatic control elevator service and proceed diligently with alterations necessary therefor without in any wise affecting this lease or the obligation of Tenant
hereunder. 
 Captions: 30.    The Captions are inserted only as a matter of convenience and for reference and in no
way define, limit or describe the scope of this lease nor the intent of any provisions thereof. 
 Definitions:
31.    The term “office”, or “offices”, wherever used in this lease, shall not be construed to mean premises used as a store or stores, for the sale or display, at any time, of goods, wares or merchandise,
of any kind, or as a restaurant, shop, booth, bootblack or other stand, barber shop, or for other similar purposes or for manufacturing. The term “Owner” means a landlord or lessor, and as used in this lease means only the owner, or the
mortgagee in possession, for the time being of the land and building (or the owner of a lease of the building or of the land and building) of which the demised premises form a part, so that in the event of any sale or sales of said land and building
or of said lease, or in the event of a lease of said building, or of the land and building, the said Owner shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of Owner hereunder, and it shall be deemed and construed
without further agreement between the parties or their successors in interest, or between the parties and the purchaser, at any such sale, or the said lessee of the building, or of the land and building, that the purchaser or the lessee of the
building has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Owner, hereunder. The words “re-enter” and “re-entry” as used in this lease are not restricted to their technical legal meaning. The term
“business days” as used in this lease shall exclude Saturdays, Sundays and all days as observed by the State or Federal Government as legal holidays and those designated as holidays by the applicable building service union employees
service contract or by the applicable Operating Engineers contract with respect to HVAC service. Wherever it is expressly provided in this lease that consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, such consent shall not be unreasonably delayed.

 Adjacent Excavation-Shoring: 32.    If an excavation shall be made upon land adjacent to the demised premises, or
shall be authorized to be made, Tenant shall afford to the person causing or authorized to cause such excavation, license to enter upon the demised premises for the purpose of doing such work as said person shall deem necessary to preserve the wall
or the building of which demised premises form a part from injury or damage and to support the same by proper foundations without any claim for damages or indemnity against Owner, or diminution or abatement of rent. 
 Rules and Regulations: 33.    Tenant and Tenant’s servants, employees, agents, visitors, and licensees
shall observe faithfully, and comply strictly with, the Rules and Regulations and such other and further reasonable Rules and Regulations as Owner or Owner’s agents may from time to time adopt.    22 Notice of any additional rules or regulations shall be
given    23 In case Tenant disputes
the reasonableness of any additional Rule or Regulation hereafter made or adopted by Owner or Owner’s agents, the parties hereto agree to submit the question of the reasonableness of such Rule or Regulation for decision to the New York office
of the American Arbitration Association, whose determination shall be final and conclusive upon the parties hereto. The right to dispute the reasonableness of any additional Rule or Regulation upon Tenant’s part shall be deemed waived unless
the same shall be asserted by service of a notice, in writing upon Owner within fifteen (15) days after the giving of notice thereof. Nothing

 
in this lease contained shall be construed to impose upon Owner any duty or obligation to enforce the Rules and Regulations or terms, covenants or conditions in any other lease, as against any
other tenant and Owner shall not be liable to Tenant for violation of the same by any other tenant, its servants, employees, agents, visitors or licensees.    24 
 Security: 34.    Tenant has deposited with Owner the sum of 

 $            *            as security for the faithful performances and observances by the
Tenant of the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease; it is agreed that in the event Tenant defaults in respect of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of rent and additional
rent, Owner may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of the security so deposited to the extent required for the payment of any rent and additional rent or any other sum as to which Tenant is in default or for any sum which Owner may expend or
may be required to expent by reason of Tenant’s default in respect of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this lease, including but not limited to, any damages or deficiency in the re-letting of the premises, whether such damages or
deficiency accrued before or after summary proceedings or other re-entry by Owner. In the event that Tenant shall fully and faithfully comply with all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this lease, the security shall be returned
to Tenant after the date fixed as the end of the Lease and after delivery of entire possession of the demised premises to Owner. In the event of a sale of the land and building, or leasing of the building, of which the demised premises form a part.
Owner shall have the right to transfer the security to the vendee or lessee and Owner shall    25 be released by Tenant from all liability for the return of such security; and Tenant agrees to look to the new Owner
solely for the return of said security, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment made of the security to a new Owner. Tenant further covenants that it will not assign or encumber or attempt to assign or
encumber the monies deposited herein as security and that neither Owner nor its successors or assigns shall be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance.
 Estoppel Certificate: 35. 
 Successors
and Assigns: 36.    The covenants, conditions and agreements contained in this lease shall bind and inure to the benefit of Owner and Tenant and their respective heirs, distributees, executors, administrators, successors, and
except as otherwise provided in this lease, their assigns. Tenant shall look only to Owner’s estate and interest in the land and building, for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies for the collection of a judgment (or other judicial
process) against Owner in the event of any default by Owner hereunder, and no other property or assets of such Owner (or any partner, member, officer or director thereof, disclosed or undisclosed), shall be subject to levy, execution or other
enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies under or with respect to this lease, the relationship of Owner and Tenant hereunder, or Tenant’s use and occupancy of the demised premises.

requirement or regulation of any utility company, insurer of Landlord or the Board of Fire Underwriters (or successor organization), whether now or hereafter in effect, and all amendments thereto. 

  

	38.	Rental Payments 

 (A) All
payments other than Fixed Rent to be made by Tenant pursuant to this lease shall be deemed additional rent and, in the event of any non-payment thereof, Landlord shall have all rights and remedies provided for herein or by law for non-payment of
rent. 
 (B) All payments of Fixed Rent and additional rent (collectively, “rent” or “rental”) to be made by
Tenant pursuant to this lease shall be made by checks drawn upon a New York City bank that is a member of the New York Clearing House Association or any successor thereto. 
 (C) If Landlord receives from Tenant any payment less than the sum of the Fixed Rent and additional rent then due and owing pursuant to this
lease, Tenant hereby waives its right, if any, to designate the items to which such payment shall be applied and agrees that Landlord in its sole discretion may apply such payment in whole or in part to any Fixed Rent, any additional rent or to any
combination thereof then due and payable hereunder. 
 (D) Unless Landlord shall otherwise expressly agree in writing,
acceptance of Fixed Rent or additional rent from anyone other than Tenant shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations

 
under this lease, including the obligation to pay Fixed Rent and additional rent (except to the extent of amounts received and retained by Landlord) and Landlord shall have the right at any time,
upon notice to Tenant, to require Tenant to pay the Fixed Rent and additional rent payable hereunder directly to Landlord. Furthermore, such acceptance of Fixed Rent or additional rent shall not be deemed to constitute Landlord’s consent to an
assignment of this lease or a subletting or other occupancy of the demised premises by anyone other than Tenant, nor a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or Tenant’s obligations under this lease. 
  

	 	(E)	Landlord’s failure to timely bill all or any portion of any amount payable pursuant to this lease for any period during the Term shall neither constitute a waiver
of Landlord’s right to ultimately collect such amount or to bill Tenant at any subsequent time retroactively for the entire amount so unbilled, which previously unbilled amount shall be payable within thirty (30) days after being so
billed; provided, however, that Tenant shall have no liability for amounts that are not billed before the date that is three (3) years after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. 

  

	39.	Tax Escalation 

 (A) For
purposes of this lease, “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean all the real estate taxes and assessments imposed by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Building and the land upon which it is located (“Land”)
(including specifically, but without limitation, so-called “BID” taxes) or any tax or assessment hereafter imposed in whole or in part in substitution for such real estate taxes and/or assessments. 
 (B) If the Real Estate Taxes for any Subsequent Tax Year during the Term exceed the Base Year Taxes (as initially imposed, if not finally
determined when a payment is due pursuant to this Section (B)), Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such excess within thirty (30) days after Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement (the “Tax
Statement”) setting forth the amount thereby due and payable by Tenant. If Real Estate Taxes are payable by Landlord to the applicable taxing authority in installments, then Landlord shall bill Tenant for Tenant’s Proportionate Share of
increased Real Estate Taxes in corresponding installments, such that Tenant’s payment is due not more than fifteen (15) days prior to the date when Landlord is obligated to pay the Real Estate Taxes to the applicable taxing authority. If
the actual amount of Real Estate Taxes is not known to Landlord as of the date of Landlord’s Tax Statement, then Landlord may nevertheless bill Tenant for such installment on the basis of a good faith estimate, in which event Tenant shall pay
the amount so estimated within thirty (30) days after receipt of such bill, subject to prompt refund by Landlord, or payment by Tenant, upon a supplemental billing by Landlord once the amount actually owed by Tenant is determined. Upon
Tenant’s request, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a copy of the current tax bill used in the preparation of the Tax Statement. 
 (C) If the Base Year Taxes ultimately are reduced to less than the Real Estate Taxes initially imposed upon the Land and the Building for the Base Tax Year, Tenant shall pay Landlord, promptly upon demand, any additional amount thereby
payable pursuant to Section (B) for all applicable Subsequent Tax Years. 
 (D) If Landlord receives any refund of Real
Estate Taxes for any Subsequent Tax Year for which Tenant has made a payment pursuant hereto, Landlord shall (after deducting from such refund all reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith, except to the extent previously reimbursed by
Tenant and other tenants or occupants of the Building) pay Tenant Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the net refund. Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the costs and expenses of any nature (including, without
limitation, consulting, appraisal, legal and

  

 -2- 

 
accounting fees) incurred by Landlord (and not already deducted pursuant to the previous sentence) in connection with any tax protest or other proceeding or arrangement leading or intending to
lead to a reduction in Real Estate Taxes, whether before or after the initial assessment thereof. 
 (E) If any Subsequent Tax
Year is only partially within the Term, all payments pursuant hereto shall be appropriately prorated, based on the portion of the Subsequent Tax Year which is within the Term. Except as limited by Articles 9 and 10: (1) Tenant’s obligation
to make the payments required by Sections (B) , (C) and (D) shall survive the Expiration Date or any sooner termination of this lease; and (2) Landlord’s obligation to make the payments required by Sections (B), (D) and
(F) shall survive the Expiration Date or any sooner termination of this lease. 
 (F) Each Tax Statement given by Landlord
pursuant to Section (B) shall be binding upon Tenant unless, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of such Tax Statement, Tenant notifies Landlord of its disagreement therewith, specifying the portion thereof with which Tenant
disagrees. Pending resolution of such dispute, Tenant shall, without prejudice to its rights, pay all amounts determined by Landlord to be due, subject to prompt refund by Landlord (without interest) upon any contrary determination. 
  

	40.	Expense Escalation 

 (A)
For purposes of the formula and other provisions set forth in this Article and elsewhere in this lease: 
 (1)
“Rate” shall mean the minimum regular hourly wage rate, including adjustments of every kind and nature (not including, however, so-called “fringe benefits”) prescribed for Porters (as hereinafter defined) for Class A office
buildings (or any successor category), pursuant to the present and any successor agreement between the Realty Advisory Board on Labor Relations, Inc. (or any successor thereto) and Local 32B - 32J of the Service Employees International Union,
AFL-CIO (or any successor thereto), covering the wage rates for Porters in such buildings’ (“Agreement”), provided, however, that, (a) if, at any time during the Term, regular employment of Porters occurs on days or during hours
when overtime or other premium pay rates are in effect pursuant to the Agreement, “Rate” shall mean the average hourly wage rate, including adjustments of every kind and nature (not including, however, so-called fringe benefits) for the
hours in a calendar week during which Porters are regularly employed (e.g., if, pursuant to the Agreement, the regular weekly employment of Porters is for forty hours, at a regular hourly wage rate (not including so-called fringe benefits), of
$12.00 for the first thirty hours and an overtime hourly wage rate (not including so-called fringe benefits), of $15.00 for the remaining ten hours, the average hourly wage rate (not including so-called fringe benefits), for the applicable period
shall, before adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section (B) , be the weekly wage rate of $510.00, divided by the number of regular hours of employment, to wit, forty, or $12.75), and that, (b) if, at any time during the Term, no
Agreement exists, Rate shall mean the average minimum regular hourly wage rate, including adjustments of every kind and nature (not including, however, so-called fringe benefits) actually payable to Porters by Landlord or the contractor performing
cleaning services in the Building, or, if no Porters are employed at the Building, such rate for Porters employed at Class A office buildings (as such buildings are presently described in the Agreement) . 
 (2) “Base Rate” shall mean the Rate in effect during the Base Labor Month. 
 (3) “Porters” shall mean those employees engaged in the general maintenance and operation of office buildings,
classified as “Others” in the current Agreement, who have been employed for

  

 -3- 

 
twenty-five (25) years or more, or failing such classification in any subsequent Agreement, the most nearly comparable classification in such Agreement. 
 (B) In determining the Base Rate and/or the Rate on each applicable occasion pursuant to this lease, the Base Rate and the Rate shall be
calculated on the basis of the number of hours that would be actually worked by Porters during the applicable calendar year pursuant to the Agreement assuming all time which Porters were entitled not to work, if all relevant circumstances provided
for in the Agreement occurred, actually was not worked [e.g., if the Agreement is predicated on a 2,080 hour work year (40 hours X 52 weeks) and Porters are paid for the following time which they are entitled not to work if all relevant
circumstances provided for in the Agreement occur (Vacation - 120 hours, Holidays - 88 hours, Birthday - 8 hours, Medical Checkup - 16 hours, Sick Days - 80 hours, Disaster Day - 8 hours and Relief Time - 148.5 hours), then the Base Rate and the
Rate shall be calculated on the basis of Porters actually working 1,611.5 hours (2,080 hours less 468.5 hours)]. 
 (C) If, in
any period during the Term, the Rate exceeds the Base Rate, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount (“Expense Escalation”) equal to the product of (1) the Multiplication Factor, multiplied by (2) the Labor Rate Multiple, multiplied
by (3) the amount by which the Rate exceeds the Base Rate. The Expense Escalation shall be appropriately adjusted for any such period which is only partially within the Term. The Expense Escalation shall be payable in equal monthly
installments, commencing with the first installment of Fixed Rent due on or after the effective date of any increase in the Rate and continuing thereafter until the effective date of any subsequent increase, whereupon such installments shall be
appropriately adjusted. Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a statement itemizing Tenant’s liability pursuant to this subdivision whenever such liability arises or changes. Except as limited by Articles 9 and 10, Tenant’s obligation to make
such payments shall survive the Expiration Date or any sooner termination of this lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, by reason of any law, or any rule, order, regulation or requirement of any governmental or quasi-governmental authority
having or asserting jurisdiction (collectively, “PW Law”), an increase in the Rate is reduced or does not take effect, or increases in the Rate are limited or prohibited, then, for the period covered by the PW Law (“Law Period”),
the Rate for purposes of this Article shall be deemed to increase by 50% of the percentage, and for the same period, as comprehended by the most recent increase in the Rate prior to the effective date of the PW Law, which periodic increase shall be
deemed to continue throughout the Law Period. 
 (D) Each statement given by Landlord pursuant to Section (C) shall be
binding upon Tenant unless, within thirty (30) days after its receipt of such statement, Tenant notifies Landlord of its disagreement therewith, specifying the portion thereof with which Tenant disagrees. Pending resolution of such dispute,
Tenant shall, without prejudice to its rights, pay all amounts determined by Landlord to be due, subject to prompt refund by Landlord (without interest) upon any contrary determination. Landlord’s obligations to refund such amounts to Tenant
shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this lease. 
 (E) As used herein: 
 (1) “Fuel Cost” shall mean Landlord’s cost for all fuel (including steam and/or oil) used in the operation of
the Building. 
 (2) “Electricity Cost” shall mean Landlord’s cost for all electricity used in
lighting all the public and service areas of the Building and operating all of the service facilities of the Building (as determined by an independent electrical engineer or consultant selected by Landlord); 
  

 -4- 

 (3) “Utilities Cost” shall mean the sum of the Fuel Cost and the
Electricity Cost; 
 (4) “Base Utilities Cost” shall mean the Utilities Cost for the calendar year
1998; and 
 (5) “Utility Year” shall mean each calendar year beginning on or after January 1,
1998 all or any part of which falls within the Term. 
 (F) If the Utilities Cost for any Utility Year shall be greater than the
Base Utilities Cost, Tenant shall pay Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of such excess (“Utilities Payment”). Any such liability shall be appropriately prorated for the final Utility Year. Tenant’s obligation to make such
payment shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this lease. 
 (G) After the initial Utility Year, Landlord shall
forward Tenant an itemized statement (“Utilities Statement”) of the Base Utilities Cost. Thereafter, Landlord shall forward Tenant a Utilities Statement of the Utilities Cost for the prior Utility Year and a computation of the amount
payable by Tenant pursuant to Section (F). 
 (H) With each installment of Fixed Rent payable during the second Utility Year,
Tenant shall pay Landlord, on account of the amount payable pursuant to this Article for such Utility Year, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the product of (i) five percent (5%) of the Base Utilities Cost, and (ii) one-twelfth)
(1/12) . Such payments shall be deferred until Landlord forwards the applicable Utilities Statement of Base Utilities Cost, whereupon Tenant promptly shall pay all deferred payments and thereafter commence such payments. 
 (I) With each installment of Fixed Rent payable during and after the third Utility Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on account of the
amount payable pursuant to this Article for the then Utility Year,. 
 (1) until Landlord forwards the applicable
Utilities Statement for the preceding Utility Year, the amount of the monthly payment during December of such preceding Utility Year; and 
 (2) after Landlord forwards the applicable Utilities Statement for the preceding Utility Year, one-twelfth of the amount payable pursuant to Section (F) for such preceding Utility Year. 

(J) Once Landlord forwards the applicable Utilities Statement for the preceding Utility Year, Landlord and/or Tenant, as the case may be,
promptly shall make appropriate payment to the other (without interest) of any amount overpaid by Tenant or owing to Landlord for such Utility Year based on the amount due pursuant to such Utilities Statement and amounts theretofore paid by Tenant
for such preceding Utility Year. 
 (K) Landlord’s Utilities Statement for any Utility Year shall be conclusive and binding
upon Tenant unless within thirty (30) days after receipt of such Utilities Statement, Tenant notifies Landlord that it disputes the correctness of the Utilities Statement, specifying the respects in which it is claimed to be incorrect. In the
event of any such dispute, pending the determination thereof, Tenant shall make payment in accordance with Landlord’s Utilities Statement, without prejudice to its position. If such dispute is determined in Tenant’s favor, Landlord shall
forthwith pay Tenant (without interest) the amount so overpaid by Tenant. Landlord’s obligations to refund such amounts to Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this lease. 
  

	41.	Abatement and Adjustments of Fixed Rent 

 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding: 
  

 -5- 

 (A) Provided this lease shall be in full force and effect and Tenant shall
not be in default hereunder beyond any applicable notice and grace period, the Fixed Rent shall abate from the Commencement Date through the date that is one day prior to the Rent Commencement Date; 
 (B) Effective on November 1, 1999, the Fixed Rent shall be increased to [***] per annum; and 
 (C) Effective on November 1, 2000, the Fixed Rent shall be further increased to [***] per annum. 
  

	42.	Electricity 

 (A)
Landlord shall furnish, for Tenant’s use in the demised premises, up to fifteen (15) watts of electric current per rentable square foot at a location designated by Landlord upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Article 42. In bringing such current from such designated location to the premises, Tenant shall use only such electrical contractors as are then on the approved list for the Building. Any additional current required by Tenant shall be provided by
Landlord, if available, at a cost of $150.00 per amp if provided during the twelve (12) month period after the date hereof, and if later provided, then at Landlord’s standard charge. If at any time during the Term, whether before or after
Tenant’s power is increased or decreased, Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant is not using any portion of the electric capacity then servicing the demised premises, then Landlord shall have the. right to recapture any such power not then
being used by Tenant without compensation to Tenant. Tenant’s consumption of electrical energy at the demised premises shall be measured by submeters installed by Landlord at Tenant’s expense. 
 (B)(1) From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall purchase all electric current consumed in or in connection with the demised
premises from Landlord or Landlord’s designated agent and pay therefor an amount equal to 105% of Landlord’s Average Cost (as hereinafter defined) applied to all electricity consumed in or in connection with the demised premises during the
applicable billing period, as measured by the submeters in the demised premises. 
 (2) “Landlord’s
Average Cost” for all purposes of this lease shall be determined by dividing (y) the total dollar amount billed to Landlord for the Building by the public utility company providing electric current to the Building (the “Utility
Company”) for the relevant billing period (including, without limitation, all charges for “demand,” fuel, “on-peak” and “off-peak” usage, “time of day” usage and any and all other relevant adjustments and
charges) by (z) the total kilowatt hours utilized by the Building for such billing period. 
 (C) Where more than one
submeter measures Tenant’s consumption of electricity, the service rendered through each submeter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the provisions hereof. Bills therefor shall be rendered at such times as Landlord may
elect and shall be payable on demand as additional rent. In the event that such bills are not paid within thirty (30) days after the same are rendered, Landlord may, without further notice, discontinue the service of electric current to the
demised premises without releasing Tenant from any liability under this lease and without Landlord’s agent incurring any liability for any damage or loss sustained by Tenant by such discontinuance of service. 
 (D) Landlord shall not in any way be liable or responsible to Tenant for any loss, damage or expense which Tenant may sustain or incur if
either the quantity or character of electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant’s requirements. Tenant’s use of electric current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders or risers to, or wiring

  

	[***]	Information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted
portions. 

  

 -6- 

 
installations in, the Building and the demised premises. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant’s electrical requirements will, upon written request of Tenant, be installed by Landlord at the
sole cost and expense of Tenant if, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the same are necessary and will not cause adverse damage or injury to the Building or the operation thereof or the demised premises, cause or create a dangerous or hazardous
condition, entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the installation of such riser or risers, Landlord will also, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant,
install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith, subject to the aforesaid terms and conditions. All of such costs and expense shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after rendition of any bill or
statement to Tenant therefor. 
 (E) Landlord may discontinue such service of electric current upon sixty (60) days notice
to Tenant without being liable to Tenant therefor or without in any way affecting this lease or the liability of Tenant hereunder or causing a diminution of Fixed Rent. Such discontinuance shall not be deemed to be a lessening or diminution of
service within the meaning of any law, rule or regulation now or hereafter enacted, promulgated or issued. In the event Landlord gives such notice of discontinuance, Landlord shall permit Tenant to receive such service direct from the Utility
Company, in which event Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, furnish and install all risers, service wiring, switches and other equipment necessary for such installation and required by the Utility Company and, at its own cost and expense,
maintain and keep in good repair all such risers, wiring, switches and equipment. 
 (F) Tenant shall make no alterations or
additions to the electric equipment and/or appliances presently installed in the demised premises without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance. Rigid conduit only will be allowed. 
 (G) If any tax is imposed upon Landlord’s receipt from the sale or resale of electric energy to Tenant by any federal, state or
municipal authority, where permitted by law, Tenant’s pro-rata share of such taxes shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord. 
 (H) Anything in Section (B) to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Commencement Date shall occur prior to the installation and proper calibration of the submeters, then Tenant shall pay Landlord for Tenant’s consumption of
electricity in the demised premises at the rate of $707.63 per month during any period when construction is taking place in the demised premises or at the rate of $1,415.25 per month from and after the date on which Tenant occupies all or a portion
of the demised premises for the conduct of business. In addition, if during any time during the Term, it shall be determined that the submeters servicing the demised premises were malfunctioning, Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount reasonably
estimated by Landlord’s electrical consultant to be the amount that would have been payable by Tenant had such malfunction not occurred. 
  

	43.	Restrictions on Use 

 (A)
Anything in Article 2 to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant shall not use or permit all or any part of the demised premises to be used for the: (1) storage for purpose of sale of any alcoholic beverage in the demised premises;
(2) storage for retail sale of any product or material in the demised premises; (3) conduct of a manufacturing, printing or electronic data processing business, except that Tenant may operate business office reproducing equipment,
electronic data processing equipment and other business machines for Tenant’s own requirements (but shall not permit the use of any such equipment by or for the benefit of any party other than Tenant); (4) rendition of any health or
related services, conduct of a school or conduct of any business which results in the presence of the general public in the demised

  

 -7- 

 
premises; (5) conduct of the business of an employment agency or executive search firm; (6) conduct of any public auction, gathering, meeting or exhibition; (7) conduct of a stock
brokerage office or business; or (8) occupancy of a foreign, United States, state, municipal or other governmental or quasi-governmental body, agency or department or any authority or other entity which is affiliated therewith or controlled
thereby. 
 (B) Tenant shall not use or permit all or any part of the demised premises to be used in any manner that is
inconsistent with the character of the Building or so as to impose a burden upon Landlord in its operation that is materially in excess of that imposed by similar tenants. 
 (C) Tenant shall not obtain or accept for use in the demised premises ice, drinking water, food, beverage, towel, barbering, boot blacking,
floor polishing, lighting maintenance, cleaning or other similar services from any party not theretofore approved by Landlord (which party’s charges shall not be excessive). Such services shall be furnished only at such hours, in such places
within the demised premises and pursuant to such regulations as Landlord prescribes. 
  

	44.	Assignment, Etc. 

 Supplementing Article 11: 
 (A) Tenant shall neither: (i) publicly advertise (which shall not include listing the
premises with a broker) the availability of all or any part of the premises for assignment, sublease or occupancy at a rental rate less than the rental rate at which Landlord is then offering to lease comparable space in the Building; or
(ii) assign this lease to or sublet to or permit the occupancy of all or any part of the demised premises by any other party which is then a tenant, subtenant, licensee or occupant of any space in the Building or which has negotiated with
Landlord for space in the Building within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Notice pursuant to Section (B) (nor shall Tenant accept an assignment of a lease or sublet space from any
tenant, subtenant, licensee or occupant of any space in the Building). Tenant shall designate Williams Real Estate Co. Inc. (or the then rental agent for the Building) as its exclusive agent in connection with any subletting of all or any part of
the premises or any assignment of this lease. 
 (B) If Tenant wishes to assign this lease (a transfer of more than a fifty
percent (50%) beneficial interest in Tenant, whether such transfer occurs at one time, or in a series of related transactions, and whether of stock, partnership interest or otherwise, by any party in interest being deemed an assignment of this
lease) , sublet all or any part of the demised premises or permit the demised premises to be occupied by any other party, Tenant shall first notify Landlord (“Tenant’s Notice”), specifying the name of the proposed assignee, subtenant
or occupant, the name of and character of its business, the terms of the proposed assignment, sublease or occupancy (including, without limitation, the commencement and expiration dates thereof) and current information as to the financial
responsibility and standing of the proposed assignee, sublessee or occupant and shall provide Landlord with such other information as it reasonably requests. If only a portion of the demised premises (not constituting an entire floor of the
Building) is to be so sublet or occupied, Tenant’s Notice shall be accompanied by a reasonably accurate floor plan, indicating such portion. The portion of the demised premises to which such proposed assignment, sublease or occupancy is to be
applicable is hereinafter referred to as the “Space.” 
 (C) Landlord may, within thirty (30) days after its
receipt of Tenant’s Notice, by notice to Tenant (“Landlord’s Notice”), require that (i) Tenant sublease the Space to Landlord or its nominee, on the terms set forth in Section (D), or (ii) this lease be

  

 -8- 

 
terminated as to the Space for the period specified in Tenant’s Notice, on the terms set forth in Section (E)(provided, however, that Tenant shall have ten (10) days after
Landlord’s exercise of its right pursuant to clause (ii) above or pursuant to the next succeeding sentence (as to which time shall be of the essence) within which to rescind Tenant’s Notice effective upon notice to Landlord to that
effect, and, if Tenant so elects, this lease shall continue unaffected as if Tenant’s Notice had never been sent). If Tenant’s proposed assignment or sublease is for more than fifty percent (50%) of the demised premises or the then
balance of the Term is three (3) years or less, Landlord also may, by Landlord’s Notice, terminate, this lease as of the proposed commencement date for such assignment, sublease or occupancy. If Landlord fails to exercise such option, it
shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the proposed assignment, sublease or occupancy, but such consent shall be deemed of no effect if such assignment, sublease or occupancy is not consummated upon the terms set forth in Tenant’s
Notice and within ninety (90) days after such consent is given. Landlord will use reasonable efforts to respond to Tenant’s request for approval of a sublease within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s Notice. 

(D) If Landlord requires that Tenant execute a sublease (“Sublease”) pursuant to clause (C) (i) , the Sublease shall
be upon the same terms as this lease, except for such terms thereof as are inapplicable and except that: (i) the term of the Sublease shall be the term specified in Tenant’s Notice commencing, at Landlord’s option, on (a) the
commencement date set forth in Tenant’s Notice, or (b) a date designated by Landlord which shall not be more than thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Notice; (ii) the Fixed Rent for the Sublease shall be the pro
rata Fixed Rent for the Space Tenant is then paying Landlord hereunder; (iii) Tenant’s Proportionate Share and the Multiplication Factor for the Sublease shall be determined based on the relative sizes of the Space and the initial demised
premises; (iv) the subtenant under the Sublease shall have the unrestricted right to assign the Sublease or any interest therein, to further sublet all or any part of the Space and/or to make any alterations, decorations, additions or
improvements in and to the Space (all or any part of which may be removed, at Landlord’s option, at any time, provided Landlord repairs all damage caused by such removal); (v) unless otherwise expressly stated in Tenant’s Notice to be
the obligation of the proposed subtenant, Tenant, as sublandlord under the Sublease, shall, at its expense: (a) erect all partitions required to separate the Space from the remainder of the demised premises and install a separate submeter to
measure the consumption of electricity in the Space (or, in the alternative, the parties shall agree on an equitable method to allocate electricity charges between the Space and the balance of the premises) and (b) to the extent necessitated by
the Sublease, install all doors required for independent access from the Space to the elevators, lavatories and staircases on the floor and install all equipment and facilities (including, without limitation, men’s and women’s toilets)
required to comply with all applicable Laws and to enable Landlord to maintain and service the Space and permit the Space to be used as an independent unit; (vi) the Sublease shall provide that the termination of all or any portion of this
lease by merger is not thereby intended; and (vii) at the expiration of the Sublease, the Space shall, subject to clause (iv), be returned to Tenant as then existing. Any actions or omissions by Landlord or its designee as tenant under a
Sublease shall not constitute a default under this lease. 
 (E) If Landlord requires that this lease be terminated as to the
Space pursuant to clause (C) (ii), then (i) Tenant at its expense shall (a) erect all partitions required to separate the Space from the remainder of the demised premises and (b) to the extent required by Landlord, install all
doors required for independent access from the Space to the elevators, lavatories and stairwells on the floor and install all equipment and facilities (including, without limitation, men’s and women’s toilets) required

  

 -9- 

 
to comply with all applicable Laws and to enable Landlord to maintain and service the Space and permit the Space to be used as an independent unit, and (ii) Landlord and Tenant shall execute
and deliver a supplementary agreement modifying this lease by eliminating the Space from the demised premises for the term specified in Tenant’s Notice commencing, at Landlord’s option, on (a) the commencement date set forth in
Tenant’s Notice, or (b) a date designated by Landlord which shall not be more than thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Notice, and, for such period, reducing the Fixed Rent and additional rent payable hereunder on a pro
rata basis. 
 (F) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Tenant may not assign this lease or sublet all or any part
of the demised premises prior to the expiration of the first year of the Term. 
 (G) No assignment of this lease shall be
effective unless and until Tenant delivers to Landlord duplicate originals of the instrument of assignment (wherein the assignee assumes the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this lease) and any accompanying documents. 
 (H) In the event of any such assignment, Landlord and the assignee may modify this lease in any manner, without notice to Tenant or
Tenant’s prior consent, without thereby terminating Tenant’s liability for the performance of its obligations under this lease, except that any such modification which, in any way, increases any of such obligations shall not, to the extent
of such increase only, be binding upon Tenant. 
 (I) No sublease of all or any part of the demised premises (except a Sublease)
shall be effective unless and until Tenant delivers to Landlord duplicate originals of the instrument of sublease (containing the provision required by Section (J) ) and any accompanying documents. Any such sublease shall be subject and
subordinate to this lease. 
 (J) Any such sublease shall contain substantially the following provisions: 
 (1) “In the event of a default under any underlying lease of all or any portion of the premises demised hereby which
results in the termination of such lease, the subtenant hereunder shall, at the option of the lessor under any such lease (“Underlying Lessor”), attorn to and recognize the Underlying Lessor as landlord hereunder and shall, promptly upon
the Underlying Lessor’s request, execute and deliver all instruments necessary or appropriate to confirm such attornment and recognition. Notwithstanding such attornment and recognition, the Underlying Lessor shall not (a) be liable for
any previous act or omission of the landlord under this sublease, (b) be subject to any offset, not expressly provided for in this sublease, which shall have accrued to the subtenant hereunder against said landlord, or (c) be bound by any
modification of this sublease or by any prepayment of more than one month’s rent, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been previously approved in writing by the Underlying Lessor. The subtenant hereunder hereby waives all rights
under any present or future law to elect, by reason of the termination of such underlying lease, to terminate this sublease or surrender possession of the premises demised hereby. 
 (2) This sublease may not be assigned or the premises demised hereunder further sublet, in whole or in part, without the
prior written consent of the Underlying Lessor.” 
 (K) No assignment or sublease, whether or not consented to by Landlord
and whether or not any such consent is required, shall release Tenant from its liability for the performance of Tenant’s obligations hereunder during the balance of the Term. Landlord’s consent to any assignment or sublease shall not
constitute its consent to any (i) further assignment of this lease or of any

  

 -10- 

 
permitted sublease or (ii) further sublease of all or any portion of the premises demised hereunder or under any permitted sublease. If a sublease to which Landlord has consented is assigned
or all or any portion of the premises demised thereunder is sublet without the consent of Landlord in each instance obtained, Tenant shall immediately terminate such sublease, or arrange for the termination thereof, and proceed expeditiously to have
the occupant thereunder dispossessed. 
 (L) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon demand therefor, all reasonable, out of
pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Landlord in connection with any assignment of this lease or sublease of all or any part of the demised premises. 
 (M) If Landlord shall give its consent to any assignment of this lease or to any sublease or if Tenant shall otherwise enter into any
assignment or sublease permitted hereunder, Tenant shall in consideration therefor, pay to Landlord, as and when payable to Tenant: 
 (1) in the case of an assignment, fifty (50%) percent of the amount, if any, by which (a) all sums and other considerations paid to Tenant by the assignee for or by reason of such assignment
(including, but not limited to, sums paid for the sale of Tenant’s fixtures, leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture, furnishings or other personal property less the then fair market value thereof) exceeds (b) the amount of any rental
concessions and work allowance granted by Tenant or costs incurred by Tenant in preparing the demised premises for the assignee’s occupancy, plus all reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expense reasonably incurred by Tenant directly relating
to such assignment, such as the New York State and City Transfer Taxes (but not income taxes, brokerage commissions, engineering, advertising and promotion expenses and legal fees; and 
 (2) in the case of a sublease, fifty (50%) percent of the amount, if any, by which (a) any rents, additional
charges or other consideration payable under the sublease to Tenant by the subtenant (including, but not limited to, sums paid for the sale or rental of Tenant’s fixtures, leasehold improvements, equipment, furniture or other personal property,
less, in the case of a sale thereof, the then fair market value thereof) exceeds (b) the sum of (x) the Fixed Rent and additional rent accruing during the term of the sublease in respect of the Space (at the rate per square foot payable by
Tenant hereunder) pursuant to the terms of this lease and (y) the amount of any rental concessions and work allowance granted by Tenant or costs incurred by Tenant in physically separating the Space from the rest of the demised premises or
otherwise in preparing the Space for the subtenant’s occupancy, plus all reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Tenant directly relating to such subletting, such as the New York State and City Transfer Taxes (but
not income taxes), brokerage commissions, engineering, advertising and promotion expenses and legal fees, all as amortized over the term of such sublease. 
 (N) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord’s consent to, and Sections (B), (C), (D), (E), (F) and (M) of this Article shall not apply to, any
sublease or assignment from Tenant to any party controlling, controlled by or under common control with Tenant (“control” and its variants meaning ownership of more than 50% of the equity interests in the party in question). 
 (O) Landlord acknowledges that the business to be conducted by Tenant in the demised premises requires the installation of certain
communications equipment owned by customers of Tenant in the demised premises, in order for such customers to interconnect with Tenant’s terminal facilities. Landlord expressly agrees that

  

 -11- 

 
Tenant may license the use of portions of the demised premises to its customers solely for the purpose of locating equipment therein without Landlord’s further consent; provided, however,
that such license shall be granted only upon the execution by Tenant and its customers of an agreement that expressly provides that (i) such license and the rights of such licensee shall at all times be subordinate to this lease and shall not
be binding on Landlord; (ii) such license will expire no later than the day prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this lease; and (iii) such license shall be for equipment only and shall not grant to the licensee the right to
occupy any portion of the Building or the demised premises. No such license shall become effective unless and until Tenant has delivered a fully executed counterpart thereof to Landlord. 
  

	45.	Brokerage 

 Each of
Tenant and Landlord represent that it dealt only with the Broker as broker in connection with this lease. Landlord shall pay the Broker’s commission therefor pursuant to a separate agreement. Each party shall indemnify the other against all
loss, damage, liability, cost and expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) pertaining to any other brokerage commission or like compensation which is based on alleged actions of the indemnifying party or its agents or representatives. The
liability of the parties hereunder shall survive any expiration or termination of this lease. 
  

	46.	Building Directory 

 (A)
Landlord shall, upon Tenant’s request, list on the Building’s directory (“Directory”) , the names of Tenant, any other party occupying any part of the demised premises pursuant hereto and their officers or employees, provided the
number of Directory lines so provided by Landlord does not exceed Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Directory’s capacity. 
 (B) The listing of any party’s name other than Tenant’s shall neither grant such party any right or interest in this lease and/or the demised premises nor constitute Landlord’s consent to any assignment or sublease to or
occupancy by such party. Such listing may be terminated by Landlord at any time, without prior notice. The initial listing(s) on the Directory shall be provided by Landlord without charge to Tenant. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s
standard fee for any work performed in connection with any additions, deletions or changes to the Directory. 
  

	47.	Exculpatory Clause 

 (A)
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the liability of Landlord and the partners of, or any other party which holds any interest in, Landlord for negligence, failure to perform lease obligations or otherwise under or in connection with
this lease shall be limited to each of their respective interests in the Land and Building. Tenant shall neither seek to enforce nor enforce any judgment or other remedy against any other asset of Landlord, any partner of Landlord or any party that
holds any interest in Landlord. 
 (B) In any claim made by Tenant against Landlord alleging that Landlord has acted
unreasonably where Landlord had an obligation to act reasonably, Tenant shall have no right to recover damages from Landlord and Tenant’s sole and exclusive recourse against Landlord shall be an action seeking specific performance of
Landlord’s obligation to act reasonably. 
  

	48.	Submission to Jurisdiction, Etc. 

 (A) This lease shall be deemed to have been made in New York County, New York, and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. All actions or proceedings

  

 -12- 

 
relating, directly or indirectly, to this lease shall be litigated only in courts located within the County of New York. Tenant, any guarantor of the performance of its obligations hereunder
(“Guarantor”) and their respective successors and assigns hereby subject themselves to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court located within such county, waive the personal service of any process upon them in any action or
proceeding therein and consent that such process may be served by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to Tenant and any successor at Tenant’s address hereinabove set forth, to Guarantor and any successor at the
address set forth in the instrument of guaranty and to any assignee at the address set forth in the instrument of assignment. Such service shall be deemed made two days after such process is so mailed. 
 (B) Whenever any default by either party causes the other to incur attorneys’ fees and/or any other costs or expenses, the defaulting
party agrees that it shall pay and/or reimburse the other for such actual and reasonable fees, costs or expenses within thirty (30) days after being billed therefor. 
 (C) If any monies owing by either party to the other under this lease are paid more than fifteen (15) days after the date such monies are due and payable pursuant to the provisions of this lease, the
party owing such monies shall pay the other interest thereon, at the so-called prime or base rate of Citibank, N.A. from time to time in effect plus’ two (2%) percent per annum, but not in excess of the then maximum lawful rate, for the
period from the date such monies were payable to the date such monies are paid. 
 (D) The submission of this lease to Tenant
shall not constitute an offer by Landlord to execute and exchange a lease with Tenant and is made subject to Landlord’s acceptance, execution and delivery thereof. 
  

	49.	Requests by Mortgagee or Others 

 (A) If any present or prospective mortgagee of the Land, Building or any leasehold interest therein requires, as a condition precedent to issuing or extending its loan, the modification of this lease in such manner as does not lessen
Tenant’s rights or increase its obligations hereunder (except in each case to a deminimis extent), Tenant shall not delay or withhold its consent to such modification and shall execute and deliver such confirming documents therefor as such
mortgagee requires. 
 (B) If Landlord, in conjunction with any proposed sale or mortgaging of all or any portion of the Land
and Building or any leasehold interest therein, requests the delivery of financial statements or other information relating to the financial condition of Tenant, Tenant shall deliver such financial statements, certified if available, or such other
information (to the extent available) within ten (10) days after Landlord’s written request therefor. All such information shall be kept strictly confidential by Landlord and such prospective purchaser or mortgagor, except to the extent
required by Law. 
  

	50.	Delivery of Demised Premises 

 Supplementing Article 21, the demised premises shall be leased to Tenant in their “as is” condition on the Commencement Date and Landlord shall not be required to perform any work to prepare the demised premises for Tenant’s
occupancy, except that, with reasonable diligence after the Commencement Date, Landlord will demolish the entire premises, except the existing bathroom and the existing green marble fireplace, in a Building standard manner, remove any friable
asbestos (except floor tile, as to which Landlord shall have no responsibility), construct a Building standard demising wall and install a Building standard entrance door. The taking of possession of the demised premises by Tenant
shall be conclusive evidence as against Tenant that, at the time such possession was so taken, the demised premises and the Building were in good and satisfactory condition. 
  

 -13- 

	51.	Insurance 

 During the
Term, Tenant shall pay for and keep in force general liability policies in standard form protecting against any and all liability occasioned by accident or occurrence, subject to customary exclusions, such policies to be written by recognized and
well-rated insurance companies authorized to transact business in the State of New York. The minimum limits of liability shall be a combined single limit with respect to each occurrence in an amount of not less than $3,000,000 for injury (or death)
and damage to property. If at any time during the Term it appears that public liability or property damage limits in the City of New York for buildings similarly situated, due regard being given to the use and occupancy thereof, are higher than the
foregoing limits, then, upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall increase the foregoing limits accordingly at the end of the then current policy period. Landlord shall be named as an additional insured in the aforesaid insurance policies and the
policies shall provide that Landlord shall be afforded not less than thirty (30) days prior notice of cancellation of said insurance. Tenant shall deliver certificates of insurance evidencing such policies. All premiums and charges for the
aforesaid insurance shall be paid by Tenant. If Tenant shall fail to make such payment when due, Landlord may make it and the amount thereof shall be repaid to Landlord by Tenant on demand and the amount thereof may, at the option of Landlord, be
added to and become a part of the additional rent payable hereunder. Tenant shall not violate or permit to be violated any condition of any of said policies and Tenant shall perform and satisfy the requirements of the companies writing such
policies. 
  

	52.	Bankruptcy 

 Without
limiting any of the provisions of Articles 16, 17 or 18 hereof, if, pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as the same may be amended, Tenant is permitted to assign this lease in disregard of the obligations contained in Articles 11 and 44 hereof,
Tenant agrees that adequate assurance of future performance by the assignee permitted under such Code shall mean the deposit of cash security with Landlord in an amount equal to the sum of one year’s Fixed Rent then reserved hereunder plus an
amount equal to all additional rent payable under this lease for the calendar year preceding the year in which such assignment is intended to become effective, which deposit shall be held by Landlord, without interest, for the balance of the Term as
security for the full and faithful performance of all of the obligations under this lease on the part of Tenant yet to be performed. If Tenant receives or is to receive any valuable consideration for such an assignment of this lease, such
consideration, after deducting therefrom (A) the brokerage commissions, if any, and other expenses reasonably incurred by Tenant for such assignment and (B) any portion of such consideration reasonably designated by the assignee as paid
for the purchase of Tenant’s property in the demised premises, shall be and become the sole and exclusive property of Landlord and shall be paid over to Landlord directly by such assignee. In addition, adequate assurance shall mean that any
such assignee of this lease shall have a net worth, exclusive of good will, equal to at least fifteen (15) times the aggregate of the Fixed Rent reserved hereunder plus all additional rent for the preceding calendar year as aforesaid.

  

	53.	Local Law 5/Required Alterations  

 Supplementing Article 6: 
 (A) All work performed or installations made by Tenant
(or by Landlord at Tenant’s request and expense) in and to the demised premises shall be done in a fashion such that the demised premises and the Building shall be in compliance with the requirements of

  

 -14- 

 
Local Law 5 of 1973 of The City of New York, as heretofore and hereafter amended (“Local Law 5”). The foregoing shall include, without limitation, (i) compliance with the
compartmentalization requirements of Local Law 5, (ii) relocation of existing fire detection devices, alarm signals and/or communication devices necessitated by the alteration of the demised premises, and (iii) installation of such
additional fire control or detection devices as may be required by applicable governmental or quasi-governmental rules, regulations or requirements (including, without limitation, any requirements of the New York Board of Fire Underwriters) as a
result of Tenant’s manner of use of the demised premises. In addition, Tenant shall cause the demised premises to be connected to the Building “Class E” system and arrange to have the demised premises and Tenant added to the
“Class E” computer. 
 (B) Except to the extent of the negligence or intentional misconduct of Landlord or its agents
or employees, Landlord shall not be responsible for any damage to Tenant’s fire control or detection devices nor shall Landlord have any responsibility for the maintenance or replacement thereof. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord from and against
all loss, damage, cost, liability or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) suffered or incurred by Landlord by reason of the installation and/or operation of any such devices. 
 (C) All work and installations required to be undertaken by Tenant pursuant to this Article shall be performed at Tenant’s sole cost
and expense and in accordance with plans and specifications and by contractors previously approved by Landlord. 
 (D) The fact
that Landlord shall have heretofore consented to any installations or alterations made by Tenant in the demised premises shall not relieve Tenant of its obligations pursuant to this Article with respect to such installations or alterations.

 (E) If any utility company or governmental or quasi- governmental authority requires any work, installation or improvement to
be made to the Building in connection with any Alteration performed by Tenant, the installation or operation of equipment or machinery in the demised premises or for any other reason relating to Tenant’s manner of use or occupancy of the
demised premises, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of such work, installation or improvement on demand. 
  

	54.	Tenant’s Alterations 

 (A) Tenant shall not make or perform, or permit the making or performance of, any alterations, installations, improvements, additions or other physical changes in or about the demised premises (collectively, “Alterations”) without
Landlord’s prior consent. Landlord agrees not unreasonably to withhold its consent to any Alterations which are nonstructural and which do not affect the Building’s systems and facilities, provided that such Alterations are performed only
by contractors or mechanics first approved by Landlord, do not affect any part of the Building other than the demised premises (including, without limitation, the exterior thereof), do not adversely affect any service required to be furnished by
Landlord to Tenant or to any other tenant or occupant of the Building and do not reduce the value or utility of the Building. All Alterations shall be done at Tenant’s expense and at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to
time reasonably designate pursuant to the conditions for Alterations prescribed by Landlord for the Building (“Alteration Regulations”). Prior to making any Alterations, Tenant (i) shall submit to Landlord detailed plans and
specifications (including layout, architectural, mechanical and structural drawings) for each proposed Alteration and shall not commence any such Alteration without first obtaining Landlord’s approval of such plans and specifications,
(ii) shall, at its expense, obtain all permits, approvals and certificates required by any governmental or

  

 -15- 

 
quasi-governmental bodies, and (iii) shall furnish to Landlord duplicate original policies of worker’s compensation insurance (covering all persons to be employed by Tenant and
Tenant’s contractors and subcontractors in connection with such Alteration) and comprehensive public liability (including property damage coverage) insurance in such form, with such companies, for such periods and in such amounts as Landlord
may reasonably require, naming Landlord and its agents as additional insureds. Upon completion of such Alteration, Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall obtain certificates of final approval of such Alteration required by any governmental or
quasi-governmental bodies and shall furnish Landlord with copies thereof and shall, within thirty (30) days of such completion, deliver a set of final “as built” drawings to Landlord reflecting the Alteration. All Alterations shall be
made and performed in accordance with the Alteration Regulations. All materials and equipment (not including Tenant’s telecommunications equipment) to be incorporated in the demised premises as a leasehold improvement as a result of all
Alterations shall be new and first quality. No such materials or equipment incorporated into the premises shall be subject to any lien, encumbrance, chattel mortgage, title retention or security agreement. Tenant shall not, at any time prior to or
during the Term, directly or indirectly employ, or permit the employment of, any contractor, mechanic or laborer in the demised premises, whether in connection with any Alteration or otherwise, if, in Landlord’s sole but good faith discretion,
such employment will interfere or cause any conflict with other contractors, mechanics, or laborers engaged in the construction, maintenance or operation of the Building by Landlord, Tenant or others. In the event of any such interference or
conflict, Tenant, upon demand of Landlord, shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such interference or conflict to leave the Building immediately. 
 (B) No approval of any plans or specifications by Landlord or consent by Landlord allowing Tenant to make any Alterations or any inspection of Alterations made by or for Landlord shall in any way be
deemed to be an agreement by Landlord that the contemplated Alterations comply with any legal requirements or insurance requirements or the certificate of occupancy for the Building nor shall it be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of the compliance
by Tenant of any provision of this lease. 
 (C) Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all reasonable, out-of-pocket
fees, costs and expenses including, but not limited to, those of attorneys, architects and engineers, reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with the review of Tenant’s plans and specifications and inspecting the Alterations to determine
whether the same are being or have been performed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications therefor and with all legal and insurance requirements. 
  

	55.	Estoppel Certificate 

 Tenant, at any time, and from time to time, upon at least twenty (20) days’ prior notice by Landlord, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, and/or to any other person, firm or corporation specified by Landlord
(“Recipient”), a statement certifying that this lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), stating the dates
to which the Fixed Rent and additional rent have been paid, stating whether or not there exists any default by Landlord under this lease, and, if so, specifying each such default, and any other matters reasonably requested by Landlord or the
Recipient. 
  

	56.	Holdover 

 In the event
Tenant shall hold over after the expiration of the Term, the parties hereby agree that Tenant’s occupancy of the demised premises after the expiration of the Term shall be upon all

  

 -16- 

 
of the terms set forth in this lease except that Tenant shall pay as a use and occupancy charge for the holdover period an amount equal to the higher of (A) an amount equal to two times the
pro rata Fixed Rent and additional rent payable by Tenant during the last year of the Term (provided, however, that the multiplier shall be reduced to one and one-half for the first month of such holdover period and one and three-quarters for the
second month of such holdover period); or (B) an amount equal to the then market rental value for the demised premises, as established by Landlord’s good faith estimate of such market rental value. 
  

	57.	Conditional Limitation 

 In the event that twice in any twelve (12) month period (A) a default of the kind set forth in Section 17(1) shall have occurred or (B) Tenant shall have defaulted in the payment of Fixed Rent or additional rent, or any
part of either, and in each such case Landlord shall have commenced a summary proceeding to dispossess Tenant in each such instance, then, notwithstanding that such defaults may have been cured at any time after the commencement of such summary
proceeding, any further default by Tenant within such twelve (12) month period shall be deemed to be a violation of a substantial obligation of this lease by Tenant and Landlord may serve a written three (3) days’ notice of
cancellation of this lease upon Tenant and, upon the expiration of said three (3) days, this lease and the Term shall end and expire as fully and completely as if the expiration of such three (3) day period were the day herein definitely
fixed for the end and expiration of this lease and the Term and Tenant shall then quit and surrender the demised premises to Landlord, but Tenant shall remain liable as elsewhere provided in this Lease. 
  

	58.	Limitation on Rent 

 If
on the Commencement Date, or at any time during the Term, the Fixed Rent or additional rent reserved in this lease is not fully collectible by reason of any federal, state, county or city law, proclamation, order or regulation, or any direction of
any public officer or body pursuant to law (collectively, “Rent Law”), Tenant agrees to take such steps as Landlord may request to permit Landlord to collect the maximum rents which may be legally permissible from time to time during the
continuance of such legal rent restriction (but not in excess of the amounts reserved therefor under this lease). Upon the termination of such legal rent restriction, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, to the extent permitted by the Rent Law, an amount
equal to (A) the Fixed Rent and additional rent which would have been paid pursuant to this lease but for such legal rent restriction, less (B) the Fixed Rent and additional rent paid by Tenant to Landlord during the period such legal rent
restriction was in effect. 
  

	59.	Acceptance of Keys 

 If
Landlord or Landlord’s managing or rental agent accepts from Tenant one or more keys to the demised premises in order to assist Tenant in showing the demised premises for subletting or other disposition or for the performance of work therein
for Tenant or for any other purpose, the acceptance of such key or keys shall not constitute an acceptance of a surrender of the demised premises nor a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or Tenant’s obligations under this lease including,
without limitation, the provisions relating to assignment and subletting and the condition of the demised premises. 
  

	60.	Security Deposit 

 (A)
Supplementing Article 34, Tenant may, at the execution of this lease or at any time during the Term, deliver as the Security Deposit an irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) in the amount of the Security Deposit issued by a
New York City commercial bank acceptable to Landlord in its sole but good faith

  

 -17- 

 
discretion, and in the form of the letter of credit annexed hereto as Exhibit B, to be held by Landlord as the Security Deposit in accordance with Article 34 and this Article 60. The Letter of
Credit shall (i) initially expire not less than one (1) year from the Commencement Date or the date of issuance if delivered to Landlord thereafter, (ii) provide for automatic renewals for periods of not less than one (1) year,
and (iii) have a final expiration date not less than three (3) months after the Expiration Date. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand and as additional rent hereunder, all fees and charges paid by Landlord to the bank issuing the Letter
of Credit in connection with the transfer of same to any future owner of the Building. In the event of a default by Tenant in the performance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this lease, Landlord shall be permitted to draw down any
portion or the entire amount of the Letter of Credit and apply the proceeds or any part thereof in accordance with Article 34 of this lease and retain the balance for the Security Deposit. Landlord shall also have the right to draw down any portion
or the entire amount of the Letter of Credit in the event that Landlord receives notice that the date of expiry of the Letter of Credit will not be extended by the issuing bank and retain the proceeds for the Security Deposit. If Landlord shall have
drawn against the Letter of Credit and applied all or any portion thereof, or if Landlord shall have applied any portion of any cash Security Deposit, then Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, upon demand, a sufficient amount of cash to bring the
balance of the monies held by Landlord to the amount of the Security Deposit. Tenant’s failure to comply with the preceding sentence will entitle Landlord to exercise all the same remedies as are available in the event of a default in the
payment of Fixed Rent. 
 (B) Tenant will be permitted to reduce the amount of the Security Deposit by $11,793.75 on the second
(2nd) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date and on each anniversary thereafter. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) in no event shall the Security Deposit ever be less than $35,381.25; and (y) no
reduction in the Security Deposit shall be permitted unless on the date of reduction no default exists hereunder that has continued beyond any applicable notice and/or cure period. If the Security Deposit is in cash, Landlord will pay to Tenant the
amount of any applicable reduction within fifteen (15) business days after Tenant’s request therefor. If the Security Deposit is a Letter of Credit, Landlord will accept a Letter of Credit in the proper reduced amount in exchange for the
existing Letter of Credit, or will enter into an amendment of the Letter of Credit reducing the amount thereof to the proper reduced amount. 
  

	61.	Definitions of “Landlord” and “Owner” 

 The terms “Owner” and “Landlord,” whenever used in this lease (including, without limitation, in Article 31) , shall have the same meaning. 
  

	62.	Landmark Designation 

 Tenant acknowledges that the Building has been designated by the New York City Landmarks Commission (the “Commission”) as an historical landmark and, in connection therewith, Tenant agrees that it shall comply with any rules,
regulations, building and/or construction restrictions of the Commission or other entity having jurisdiction over the demised premises in connection therewith. 
  

	63.	Hazardous Materials 

 (A)
Tenant shall not cause nor permit Hazardous Materials (as, defined below) to be used, transported, stored, released, handled, produced or installed in or from the demised premises during the Term or any holdover period, except that inflammable or
combustible (but not explosive) items may be brought into and used within the demised premises in limited quantities to the extent currently needed for the operation of customary office equipment, so long as

  

 -18- 

 
done in compliance with all Laws. The term “Hazardous Materials” shall mean, for the purposes hereof, any flammable, explosive or radio-active materials, hazardous wastes, hazardous or
toxic substances or related materials, asbestos or any material containing asbestos, or any other substance or material, as defined by any present or future Law, including, without limitation, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation
and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, as amended, the Resources Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act of 1986 and in the regulations adopted and
publications promulgated pursuant to each of the foregoing. In the event of a breach of the provisions of. this Article 63 (except to the extent caused by the actions or wrongful omissions of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors),
Landlord, in addition to all of its rights and remedies under this lease and pursuant to Law, may require Tenant to remove any such Hazardous Materials from the demised premises or the Building in the manner prescribed for such removal by all
requirements of Law. The provisions of this Article 63 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this lease. 
 (B)
If any Hazardous Material or friable asbestos (other than floor tile) is discovered in the premises and is not the responsibility of Tenant as above provided and is required by applicable Law to be removed or encapsulated, then, as Tenant’s
sole remedy, Landlord will at Landlord’s expense and with reasonable promptness remove or encapsulate such Hazardous Material or friable asbestos in accordance with Law. 
  

	64.	Interconnections 

 (A)
Subject to Landlord’s prior approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall have the right to install and run both vertical and horizontal communication interconnections, via conduit, wave guide and ceramic duct, provided that
such installation is performed in accordance with all applicable Laws and the’ relevant provisions of this lease including, without limitation, Articles 3, 6 and 54 and in accordance with plans and specifications previously approved by
Landlord. Prior to any cable pulls being installed through any conduits running through other tenant spaces, Tenant shall present a copy of an agreement between Tenant and such other tenant (reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) whereby such other
tenant consents to Tenant making the proposed connection or other installation. 
 (B) All interconnections shall conform to the
following specifications: 
  

	 	(1)	The conduit shall be supported a minimum of every 10 linear feet. 

  

	 	(2)	The conduit shall be tagged each 15 linear feet, with letters a minimum of 2-1/2 inches in height, as required by Landlord in its approval letter.

  

	 	(3)	All penetrations of fire-rated partitions or slabs shall be fire-stopped with a UL approved material of equal or greater rating. 

  

	 	(4)	Tenant shall inform the building manager on completion of the installation for final inspection and approval. 

  

	 	(5)	Tenant’s sub-contractor must coordinate all work with the building manager and other tenants affected by the work. 

  

	 	(6)	 All conduit shall be rigid conduit or elastic metal tubing. Tenant acknowledges that the use of any other type of conduit is inherently risky,
particularly in an environment, like the Building,

  

 -19- 

	 	 
which has very numerous conduit runs and which will have many more. If, however, Tenant requests, and Landlord permits, plastic flexible conduit (which will be permitted, if at all, only for
fiber cable), then Tenant acknowledges that such installation will be at Tenant’s sole risk, and Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and its partners, and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of Landlord and its
partners (collectively, the “Landlord Parties”), and to hold the Landlord Parties harmless, against and from all loss, damage, cost, liability or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements)
suffered or incurred by Landlord by reason of any claim arising from the installation and/or use of any such conduit or any damage resulting to any cable installed therein, whether or not arising in whole or in part from the negligence of any
Landlord Party. 

  

	65.	Landlord’s Access 

 Supplementing Article 13, upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant (which need not be in writing), except in an emergency when no notice shall be required, Landlord and other tenants, licensees and occupants of the Building shall have access
to the Building shafts and conduits located within the demised premises. 
  

	66.	Square Footage 

 Landlord
and Tenant mutually agree, although without making any representations whatsoever, that for all purposes of this lease the demised premises shall be deemed to contain 5,661 rentable square feet. 
  

	67.	Casualty Damage 

 Anything in Article 9 to the contrary notwithstanding: (1) if an independent contractor chosen by Landlord estimates that Landlord’s portion of any restoration necessitated by damage or destruction to the demised premises by fire
or other casualty (collectively “Casualty”) cannot be substantially completed within six (6) months after the occurrence of the Casualty, Landlord shall so notify Tenant and Tenant may terminate this lease by notice sent to Landlord
within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice (time being of the essence); and (2) If Landlord’s portion of any restoration necessitated by Casualty has not been substantially completed within six (6) months
after the occurrence of the applicable Casualty, then Tenant may terminate this lease by notice sent to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such six (6) month period (time being of the essence). In either such event,
this lease shall terminate on the date such notice is sent. On or before such effective date, Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of the demised premises in the condition required by this lease, Fixed Rent and other amounts payable under
this lease shall be prorated as of such effective date and the parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the six (6) month period referred to in clause (2) above shall be extended by up to an additional three (3) months to the extent such restoration is delayed due to adjustment of insurance claims
or circumstances of the nature set forth in Article 27 or otherwise beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. 
  

 -20- 

	68.	24 - Hour Access 

 Subject to the Building-wide security rules and to circumstances of force majeure, Tenant shall have access to the demised premises 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

8th day of July, 2002, between HUDSON TELEGRAPH
ASSOCIATES, L.P., a New York limited partnership, having an address c/o Williams Real Estate Co. Inc., 380 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017-2513 (“Owner” or “Landlord”) and COLO PROPERTIES, INC., a Delaware
corporation, having an address at 60 Hudson Street, New York, New York 10013 (“Tenant”). 
 W I
T N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS: 
 A. Landlord and telx Communications Corporation and/or Connectech LLC (both of which are Tenant’s predecessors), entered into
(i) a lease dated as of June 11, 1997 (as amended to date, the “Existing 23rd Floor Lease”) pursuant to which Tenant, as assignee, now leases a portion of the 23rd floor in the building (the “Building”) known as 60 Hudson Street, New York, New York, the Expiration Date of
which is presently October 31, 2007, and (ii) a lease dated as of July 6,1999 (as amended to date, the “Existing 9th Floor Lease”) pursuant to which Tenant, as assignee, now leases a portion of the 9th floor in the Building, the Expiration Date of which is presently
April 30, 2015. 
 B. Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Existing 23rd Floor Lease and the Existing 9th Floor Lease (sometimes collectively referred to as the
“Existing Leases”) as set forth herein and, in addition, to add to the premises demised under the Existing 23rd Floor Lease (the “23rd Floor Space”) a portion of the third (3rd) floor in the Building as shown hatched on Exhibit A annexed hereto (the “3rd Floor Space”). 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, Landlord and
Tenant agree that the Existing 23rd Floor Lease and the
Existing 9th Floor Lease are hereby amended as follows:

 1. Definitions. All defined terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
relevant Existing Lease unless otherwise defined herein. The Existing 23rd Floor Lease, as amended by this Agreement and as the same may be hereafter amended, is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “23rd/3rd Floor Lease” and the Existing 9th Floor Lease, as amended by this Agreement and as the same may be hereafter amended, is hereinafter sometimes referred
to as the “9th Floor Lease.” 
 2. Additional Electricity for 9th Floor Space. In connection with the Existing
9th Floor Lease, Landlord shall furnish, for Tenant’s
use in the premises leased pursuant to the Existing 9th Floor Lease (the “9th Floor Space”), at
a location designated by Landlord, an additional 400 amperes of alternating electric current at 480 volts, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Article 42 of the Existing 9th Floor Lease. In bringing such additional current from such designated location to the 9th Floor Premises, Tenant shall use only such electrical contractors as
are then on the approved list for the Building. Tenant agrees to pay a one-time charge for such additional capacity (in addition to the normal sub-metering charge as provided in the Existing 9th Floor Lease) in the amount of $230,750.00, payable in seven (7) equal consecutive monthly
installments, the first of which shall be due and payable on the first day of the first calendar month that is at least thirty (30) days after such additional capacity is made available to Tenant. If Tenant fails to pay any such installment
when due, and does not cure such failure within ten (10) business days after Landlord notifies Tenant thereof, then Landlord may recapture such additional current without compensation to Tenant. 

 3. 3rd Floor Space Added. 
 (a) As of November 1, 2002 (the “3rd Floor Commencement Date”), and for the balance of the Term of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, as the same is extended pursuant to Paragraph 4 of this Agreement, the 3rd Floor Space shall become and constitute a part of the premises
demised under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, upon and subject to all of the terms and conditions of
the Existing 23rd Floor Lease, as hereby modified, unless
and to the extent otherwise provided herein. The 3rd Floor
Space shall be leased to Tenant in its “as is” condition on the date hereof, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and Landlord shall not be required to perform any work to prepare the 3rd Floor Space for Tenant’s occupancy except that, prior to the 3rd Floor Commencement Date, Landlord will, at Landlord’s cost
except to the extent provided in the last sentence of this Paragraph 3, (i) demolish, in a Building standard manner, the existing improvements within the 3rd Floor Space (including any internal dividing walls), (ii) remove or encapsulate any friable asbestos, including
asbestos-containing floor tiles, if any, and (iii) construct Building standard demising walls to separate the 3rd Floor Space from the balance of the 3rd floor. The taking of possession of the 3rd Floor Space by Tenant shall be conclusive evidence as against Tenant that, at the time such possession was so taken,
the 3rd Floor Space, the 23rd Floor Space, the 9th Floor Space and the Building were in good and satisfactory condition. Tenant will reimburse Landlord,
within thirty (30) days after demand accompanied by reasonable substantiation, for Landlord’s actual cost of removing any asbestos-containing floor tiles. 
 (b) If Landlord permits Tenant to occupy the 3rd Floor Space prior to the 3rd Floor Commencement Date, Tenant covenants and agrees that such occupancy shall be deemed to be under all of the terms,
covenants, conditions and provisions of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease except the obligation to pay
Fixed Rent for the 3rd Floor Space. 
 4. Extension of Term of 23rd/3rd Floor Lease. The Term of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease is hereby extended until October 31, 2017, which date is the new “Expiration Date” of the
23rd/3rd Floor Lease. 
 5. Fixed Rent Under 23rd/3rd Floor Lease.

 6. Additional Rent. It is the intention of the parties that, until and including October 31,2007, additional rent payable by Tenant pursuant to the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease shall be calculated separately for the 23rd Floor Space and the 3rd Floor Space.

by this Agreement. The calculations for the 3rd Floor
Space for the entire Term commencing on the 3rd Floor
Commencement Date, and the calculations for the 23rd Floor
Space commencing on November 1, 2007, shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Articles 37 and 39 of the Existing 23rd Floor Lease with the following modifications: 
 (a) “Base Tax Year” for (i) the 23rd Floor Space from and after November 1, 2007, and (ii) the 3rd Floor Space, shall mean the Real Estate Taxes as finally determined for the tax fiscal year July 1,2002
– June 30,2003. 
 (b) “Subsequent Year” for (i) the 23rd Floor Space from and after November 1, 2007, and (ii) the

 -3- 

 (d) Article 40 of the Existing 23rd Floor Lease shall not apply to (i) the 23rd Floor Space from and after November 1,2007, and (ii) the 3
rd Floor Space. 
 7. Option to Renew 23rd/3rd Floor Lease. 
 (a) Provided that the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease is then in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default thereunder after notice and expiration of
any applicable grace period, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of the 23rd/3rd Floor
Lease (with respect to all space then being leased thereunder, and not for only a part thereof) for one (1) additional period of five (5) years (the “Extension Term”). The Extension Term shall commence on the day after the
initial Expiration Date (i.e., on November 1, 2017) and shall expire on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the initial Expiration Date (i.e., on October 31, 2022), unless the Extension Term shall sooner end pursuant to any
of the terms, covenants or conditions of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease or pursuant to law. Tenant shall
give Landlord written notice of Tenant’s exercise of such option on or before the date that is one (1) year prior to the initial Expiration Date (i.e., on or before October 31, 2016) (the time of exercise being of the essence),
and upon Tenant timely giving such notice, the Term shall be extended without execution or delivery of any other or further documents, with the same force and effect as if the Extension Term had originally been included in the Term; the word
“Term,” whenever used herein, shall include the Extension Term; and the Expiration Date shall thereupon be deemed to be the last day of the Extension Term. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease shall continue in full force and effect during the Extension Term, including Real Estate Tax escalation
and the annual (each November 1) cumulative 2% increase in Fixed Rent in lieu of operating expense or Porter’s Wage escalation, which shall remain payable on the terms (including the Base Tax Year) herein set forth, except that:
(i) the Fixed Rent shall be as determined in accordance with subparagraph (b) of this Paragraph, (ii) there shall be no rent concession, work or work allowance to be furnished by Landlord, and (iii) Tenant shall have no further
right to extend the Term. 
 (b) The Fixed Rent payable by Tenant for the 23rd Floor Space and the 3rd Floor Space during the Extension Term shall be the greater of
(x) the annual Fixed Rent therefor payable in the final month of the Term of the 23rd/3rd Floor
Lease and the (y) the fair market rental value thereof based upon the criteria set forth in part (iii) of this subparagraph (b) (the “FMRV”), determined as follows: 
 (i) Beginning on the date that is one (1) year prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in
good faith to agree upon the FMRV. If Landlord and Tenant cannot reach agreement by the date that is nine (9) months prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, Landlord and Tenant shall each select a reputable, qualified, licensed real
estate broker having an office in New York County and familiar with the rentals then being charged in the Building and in comparable buildings in lower Manhattan for the type of space represented by the premises (such brokers are referred to herein,
respectively, as “Landlord’s Broker” and “Tenant’s Broker”), who shall confer promptly after their selection by Landlord and Tenant and shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the FMRV. If Landlord’s Broker and
Tenant’s Broker cannot reach agreement by the date that is seven (7) months prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, then, no later than the date that is six (6) months prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, they
shall designate a third reputable, qualified, licensed real estate broker having an office in New York County and familiar with the rentals then being charged in the Building and in comparable buildings in lower Manhattan for the type of space
represented by the premises (the “Independent Broker”). Upon the failure of Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker timely to agree upon the designation of the Independent Broker, then the

  

 -4- 

 
Independent Broker shall be appointed by a Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of New York upon ten (10) days notice, or by any other court in New York County having jurisdiction and
exercising functions similar to those exercised by the Supreme Court of the State of New York. Concurrently with such appointment, Landlord’s Broker and Tenant’s Broker shall each submit a letter to the Independent Broker, with a copy to
Landlord and Tenant, setting forth such broker’s estimate of the FMRV, taking into consideration the factors referenced in part (iii) of this subparagraph (b) (respectively “Landlord’s Broker’s Letter” and
“Tenant’s Broker’s Letter”). 
 (ii) If the FMRV’s set forth in Landlord’s Broker’s Letter
and Tenant’s Broker’s Letter differ by $90,000.00 per annum or less for each year during the Extension Term, the FMRV shall be deemed the average of the FMRV’s set forth in Landlord’s Broker’s Letter and Tenant’s
Broker’s Letter. If such differential is more than $90,000.00 per annum, the Independent Broker shall conduct such investigations and hearings as he or she may deem appropriate and shall, within sixty (60) days after the date of his or her
designation, choose either the FMRV set forth in Landlord’s Broker’s Letter or that set forth in Tenant’s Broker’s Letter to be the FMRV and such choice shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall each
pay the fees and expenses of its respective broker. The fees and expenses of the Independent Broker shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant. 
 (iii) The FMRV shall be the fair market rental value, as of the first day of the Extension Term, of space comparable to the premises in lower Manhattan, taking into account the special character of the
Building as a telecommunications industry specialty building, the then existing condition of the premises, the nature of the escalation provisions and the Base Tax Year as set forth in the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, which shall not be changed, as well as the benefit to Tenant of being able to remain in its existing space
and thus being spared the cost, inconvenience and interruption of business operations of relocating, the absence of any rent concession or work contribution from Landlord, and all other relevant terms and conditions of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease. Fixed Rent shall include an annual cumulative two (2%) percent increase intended to reimburse
Landlord for anticipated increases in Building operating expenses, in lieu of operating expense escalation or so-called Porter’s Wage escalation. 
 (c) If the Fixed Rent for the Extension Term has not been determined by the first day thereof, then the Fixed Rent to be paid by Tenant to Landlord until such determination has been made shall be the FMRV
set forth in Landlord’s Broker’s Letter. After such determination has been made, any excess rental theretofore paid by Tenant to Landlord shall be credited by Landlord against the next ensuing Fixed Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord.

 (d) Promptly after the Fixed Rent has been determined, Landlord and Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver an agreement setting forth the Fixed Rent for the Extension Term, as finally determined, provided that the failure of the parties to do so shall not affect their respective rights and obligations under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease. 
 (e) Fixed Rent for the Basement Space and the Set-Back Space (as hereinafter defined) during the Extension Term shall be at such rate, including cumulative annual increases, as Landlord is charging for
such types of space as of the beginning of the Extension Term. 
 8. Increase in Security Deposit.
The amount of the Security Deposit under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease is Increased by $142,380.00,
which shall be accomplished by way of an amendment to the 9th Floor L/C adjusting the amount thereof to the sum of the amount presently required under the Existing 9th
 Floor Lease plus $142,380.00 (i.e., to a total of $892,380.00). At any time that Landlord is holding cash as the Security Deposit, Landlord may demand by notice to Tenant that Tenant

  

 -5- 

 
provide a Letter of Credit in the total amount of the required Security Deposit (upon receipt of which Landlord will deliver the cash security to Tenant), and if Tenant fails to provide such
Letter of Credit within fifteen (15) business days after such demand is given, Landlord may itself arrange for the issuance thereof, using the cash security it is then holding, and Tenant shall upon demand reimburse Landlord, as additional
rent, for the amount by which the cost thereof, including fees and other reasonable costs of issuance, exceeds the cash security being held by Landlord. 
 9. Basement Space. 
 (a) Effective as of the date of the
execution and exchange of this Agreement (the “Effective Date”), the space identified by batching on Exhibit B annexed hereto located in the basement of the Building (the “Basement Space”) shall be added to the premises demised
under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease. The lease of the Basement Space shall be upon all the
terms and conditions contained in the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, except as otherwise set forth herein. 
 (b) Effective as of the Effective Date, the Fixed Rent under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease shall be increased by [***] per annum by reason of the addition of the Basement Space, which amount shall
increase on each January 1 throughout the Term of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, commencing on January 1,
2003, by two and one-half (2 1/2%) percent
(cumulative). 
 (c) The Basement Space shall be used solely for the purpose of housing a fuel tank,
in full compliance with all applicable laws. The installation of the fuel tank, as provided in the foregoing sentence, shall be performed in accordance with all applicable provisions of the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease, including, without limitation, Article 54 thereof. 
 (d) Landlord makes no representations concerning the condition of the Basement Space. Tenant agrees to accept the Basement Space in its
“as is” condition on the date hereof. Landlord shall not be required to perform any work to prepare the Basement Space for Tenant’s use and occupancy. 
 (e) Promptly after the date hereof and prior to Tenant making any installations in the Basement Space, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, construct Building standard demising walls to separate
the Basement Space from the balance of the basement. 
 (f) There shall be no change in Tenant’s Proportionate Share or the
electric capacity to which Tenant is entitled by reason of the addition of the Basement Space. 
 10. Landmark
Designation. Tenant is hereby notified that the Building is subject to the jurisdiction of the Landmarks Preservation Commission. In accordance with sections 25-305, 25-306, 25-309 and 25-310 of the Administrative Code of the City of New York
and the rules set forth in Title 63 of the Rules of the City of New York, any demolition, construction, reconstruction, alteration or minor work as described in such sections and such rules may not be commenced within or at the premises without the
prior written approval of the Landmarks Preservation Commission. Tenant is notified that such demolition, construction, reconstruction, alterations or minor work includes, but is not limited to, (a) work to the exterior of the premises
involving windows, signs, awnings, flagpoles, banners and storefront alterations and (b) interior work to the premises that (i) requires a permit from the Department of Buildings or (ii) changes, destroys or affects an interior
architectural feature of an interior landmark or an exterior architectural feature of an improvement that is a landmark or located on a landmark site or in a historic district.

under the 9th Floor Lease (with no further notice
requirement or opportunity to cure), and similarly a default on Tenant’s part under the 9th Floor Lease that continues after any applicable notice and/or cure period shall automatically constitute a default under the 23rd/3rd Floor Lease (with no further notice requirement or opportunity to cure).

conditions thereof shall remain in full force and effect and the Existing Leases, as so modified, are hereby ratified and confirmed.
