Re:
Adamas One Corp.—Public Offering

 

Ladies
and Gentlemen:

 

The
undersigned, an officer, director and/or holder of common stock (the “Common Stock”), or rights to acquire shares
of Common Stock (the “Shares”), of Adamas One Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), understands
that you are the representative (the “Representative”) of the several underwriters, if any (collectively, the “Underwriters”),
named or to be named in the final form of Schedule I to the underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”)
to be entered into among the Underwriters and the Company, providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”)
of securities of the Company (the “Securities”) pursuant to a registration statement filed or to be filed (the “Registration
Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

 

In
consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering of
the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees,
for the benefit of the Company, the Representative and the other Underwriters that, without the prior written consent of the Representative,
the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date of this Lock-Up Agreement and continuing and including the date that
is one-hundred and eighty (180) days after the closing of the Public Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”), directly or
indirectly, unless otherwise provided herein, (a) offer, sell, agree to offer or sell, solicit offers to purchase, grant any call option
or purchase any put option with respect to, pledge, encumber, assign, borrow or otherwise dispose of (each a “Transfer”)
any Relevant Security (as defined below) or otherwise publicly disclose the intention to do so, or (b) establish or increase any “put
equivalent position” or liquidate or decrease any “call equivalent position” with respect to any Relevant Security
(in each case within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
and the rules and regulations thereunder) with respect to any Relevant Security or otherwise enter into any swap, derivative or other
transaction or arrangement that Transfers to another, in whole or in part, any economic consequence of ownership of a Relevant Security,
whether or not such transaction is to be settled by the delivery of Relevant Securities, other securities, cash or other consideration,
or otherwise publicly disclose the intention to do so. As used herein, the term “Relevant Security” means any Share,
any warrant to purchase Shares or any other security of the Company or any other entity that is convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable
for, Shares or any other equity security of the Company, in each case owned beneficially or otherwise by the undersigned on the date
of closing of the Public Offering or acquired by the undersigned during the Lock-Up Period.

 

The
restrictions in the foregoing paragraph shall not apply to: (a) any exercise (including a cashless exercise or broker-assisted exercise
and payment of tax obligations) of options or warrants to purchase Shares; provided that any Shares received upon such exercise, conversion
or exchange will be subject to the Lock-Up Period, (b) any establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange
Act for the transfer of Shares (a “Trading Plan”); provided that: (i) the Trading Plan shall not provide for or permit
any transfers, sales or other dispositions of Shares during the Lock-Up Period, and (ii) the Trading Plan would not require any filing
under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and no such filing is voluntarily made, or (c) any transfer of Shares acquired in open market
transactions following the closing of the Public Offering, provided the transfer would not require any filing under Section 16(a) of
the Exchange Act and no such filing is voluntarily made.

In
addition, the undersigned further agrees that, except for the Registration Statement, during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will
not, without the prior written consent of the Representative: (a) file or participate in the filing with the SEC of any registration
statement or circulate or participate in the circulation of any preliminary or final prospectus or other disclosure document, in each
case with respect to any proposed offering or sale of a Relevant Security beneficially owned by the undersigned, or (b) exercise any
rights the undersigned may have to require registration with the SEC of any proposed offering or sale of a Relevant Security beneficially
owned by the undersigned.

 

In
furtherance of the undersigned’s obligations hereunder, the undersigned hereby authorizes the Company during the Lock-Up Period
to cause the transfer agent for the Relevant Securities to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register
and other records relating to, Relevant Securities for which the undersigned is the record owner and the transfer of which would be a
violation of this Lock-Up Agreement and, in the case of Relevant Securities for which the undersigned is the beneficial but not the record
owner, agrees that during the Lock-Up Period it will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the record owner to authorize the Company
to cause the relevant transfer agent to decline to transfer, and to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records
relating to, such Relevant Securities to the extent such transfer would be a violation of this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, the undersigned may transfer the undersigned’s Relevant Securities: 

	 	 	 
	 	(i)	as
    a bona fide gift or gifts;
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	to

    for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or a member or members of the immediate family of the undersigned;
	 	 	 
	 	(iii)	if
    the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity, (1) to another corporation,
    partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity that is a direct or indirect Affiliate (as defined in Rule
    405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the undersigned, (2) to limited partners, limited liability company members
    or stockholders of the undersigned or holders of similar equity interests in the undersigned, or (3) in connection with a sale, merger
    or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the undersigned or any other change of control of the undersigned, not undertaken
    for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement; 
	 	 	 
	 	(iv)	if
    the undersigned is a trust, to the beneficiary of such trust;
	 	 	 
	 	(v)	by
    testate or intestate succession;
	 	 	 
	 	(vi)	by
    operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement;
	 	 	 
	 	(vii)	pursuant
    to the Underwriting Agreement; or
	 	 	 
	 	(viii)	to
    the Company solely in an amount necessary to satisfy tax obligations (withholding or otherwise) in connection with any grant of restricted
    Shares, exercise or vesting of options or warrants to purchase Shares;

 

provided,
in the case of clauses (i)-(vi), that (A) such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (B) the transferee agrees in writing
with the Underwriters and the Company to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement, and (C) such transfer would not require any
filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and no such filing is voluntarily made.

For
purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more

If

or a material event relating to the Company occurs or (y) prior to the expiration of the lock-up period, the Company announces that it
will release its earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, the lock-up period shall
be extended by, and the restrictions imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of, the 18-day period
beginning on the issuance of the earnings or other press release or the occurrence of the material event. If the lock-up period is so
extended, the undersigned shall not engage in any transaction that may be restricted by this Lock-Up Agreement during the extended lock-up
period unless the undersigned requests and receives prior written confirmation from the Representative or the Company that the restrictions
imposed by this Lock-Up Agreement have expired.

 

If
the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the Representative agrees that, at least three business days before the

the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of
the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective
two business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release
or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the
same terms described in this letter to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.

 

The
undersigned, whether or not participating in the Public Offering, understands that the Underwriters are entering into the Underwriting
Agreement and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

The
undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the
provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Securities to
be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

The
undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Agreement and
that this Lock-Up Agreement has been duly authorized (if the undersigned is not a natural person) and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligation of the undersigned, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Upon request, the undersigned will execute any additional
documents necessary in connection with the enforcement hereof. Any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors
and assigns of the undersigned from the date of this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

This
Lock-Up Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict
of laws principles thereof. Delivery of a signed copy of this Lock-Up Agreement by facsimile or e-mail/.pdf transmission shall be effective

Additional Rent, Tenant’s Additional Rent, Tenant Service Charges, and any other amounts that Tenant assumes or agrees to

of any default of Tenant or any failure on Tenant’s part to comply with the agreements, terms, covenants and conditions
of this Lease.

 

2.2             
Base Rent: The parties acknowledge that the Initial Rent Deposit represents the Base Rent owed by Tenant during the Lease
Term.

 

2.3             
Intentionally Deleted.

 

2.4             
Intentionally Deleted.

 

2.5             
Intentionally Deleted.

 

2.6             
Payment of Rent: Tenant agrees to pay all Rent due and payable under this Lease on a timely basis, without demand, set-off
or counterclaim, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Lease Term Base Rent shall be due and
payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month, commencing on the Rent Commencement
Date and continuing throughout the Lease Term and any extensions or renewals thereof.

 

All
payments of Rent shall be made to Landlord or as Landlord may otherwise designate. All payments shall be mailed or delivered to
Landlord’s Address designated in Section 1.1.2 above or at such other place as Landlord may designate from time to
time in writing. If mailed, each payment shall be mailed in sufficient time and with adequate postage thereon to be received in
Landlord’s account no later than the due date for the payment.

    7

     

    

2.7             
Prorated Payments: If the Rent Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month or if this Lease terminates
on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the installments of Rent for that month or months shall be prorated
on a daily basis and shall be paid in advance.

 

2.8             
Automatic Bank Draft of Rent: Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to draft or deduct Tenant’s Rent from Tenant’s
bank account on the fourth day of each calendar month. From time to time as Landlord may request, Tenant will sign authorization
forms that reflect this authorization and identify the bank account to be drafted, and Tenant will also provide to Landlord an
appropriate voided item for the type of account to be drafted. Tenant will maintain the necessary funds in the account to pay
the draft each month and will not take any steps to interfere with the drafting of Rent from the account by Landlord. Tenant will
not close the account without providing to Landlord, at least 30 days prior to the account being closed, a new authorization form
and voided instrument for a replacement account.

 

If
the fourth day of the month is a Saturday, Sunday or full bank holiday, Tenant’s account will be drafted on the last business
day immediately prior to the fourth day of the month, unless the first business day after the fourth is closer in time to the
fourth, in which case the account will be drafted on the first business day after the fourth. For example: If the fourth day of
the month is a Saturday, Tenant’s account will normally be drafted on the previous Friday; and if the fourth day is a Sunday,
Tenant’s account will normally be drafted on the following Monday. If the fourth day of the month falls during a three day
holiday weekend, the account will be drafted on the last business day before the holiday weekend unless the fourth falls on the
last non-business day of the weekend. For purposes of this provision, business days will include Monday though Friday, exclusive
of full bank holidays.

 

If
(i) there are not sufficient funds in the account to pay the draft, and (ii) there has been no other occasion within the past
twelve months when there were not sufficient funds in Tenant’s account to pay a draft under this Section, then Landlord
will attempt to notify Tenant by telephone, e-mail, fax, or other available form of contact, and Landlord will then draft Tenant’s
account again 48 hours after the attempted notification. Landlord will not be responsible for giving notice under any other notice
provision of this Lease, nor for failure of the attempted notification. If the draft is not paid upon second presentation, then
notwithstanding any other notice or grace period of this Lease, an event of default will have occurred, and Landlord may exercise
any remedies provided in this Lease. If there are two or more occasions during any twelve month period when there are not sufficient
funds in Tenant’s account to pay a draft under this Article, then an event of default will have occurred without the necessity
for notifying Tenant or resubmitting the draft on the second or following occasions.

 

If
for any reason the above procedure for drafting Tenant’s account should not be in place when payment of Rent is due, Tenant
will pay the Rent to Landlord at Landlord’s address as provided herein (or any other address that may be designated by Landlord
from time to time) monthly in advance. In that event, if Tenant fails to pay any installment of Rent or any other charge or assessment
against Tenant within five (5) days after written notice of non-payment, an event of default will have occurred, and Landlord
may exercise any remedies provided in this Lease. Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted to conflict with or otherwise
limit Tenant’s authorization to draft or deduct Rent from Tenant’s account as set forth in prior paragraphs of this
Section unless Landlord has specifically waived that provision in writing.

    8

     

    

2.9             
Late Charge: If any Rent is not paid to Landlord by the fifth day of the month for which the Rent is due, or if any other
amount owed to Landlord is not paid by the due date specified on an invoice from Landlord, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord a
late charge of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) for Landlord’s administrative expense in processing the delinquent payment, together
with interest from and after the due date for the payment at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum on the amount due. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, in no event shall the rate of interest payable on any amount due under this Lease exceed the legal limits
for interest under applicable law.

 

2.10         
Returned Check Charge: If any check presented to Landlord in payment of any obligation of Tenant is not paid by the bank on
which it is drawn, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord a returned check charge of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) for Landlord’s administrative
expense in handling the returned check. The returned check charge payable under this Section shall be in addition to any
late charge and interest payable under the preceding Section, which shall be determined from the original due date of the payment
as if the returned check had never been received.

 

2.11         
Initial Rent Deposit: As security for Tenant’s obligations to take possession of the Premises in accordance with the
terms of this Lease and to comply with all of Tenant’s covenants, warranties and agreements, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord
the Initial Rent Deposit set forth in Article 1 above on the date Tenant executes and delivers this Lease to Landlord. The
Initial Rent Deposit will be applied by Landlord, without interest, to the monthly installment(s) of Base Rent as they become
due. In the event Tenant fails to comply with the terms of the Lease, the Initial Rent Deposit will be retained by Landlord for
application in reduction, but not in satisfaction, of damages suffered by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s breach.

 

Neither
Landlord nor its agents shall be required to keep the Initial Rent Deposit separate from their general accounts, and the Initial
Rent Deposit may be commingled with other funds of Landlord or of its agents. If the Initial Rent Deposit is deposited in an interest-bearing
account, all interest earned shall belong to Landlord.

 

2.12         
Brokers: Tenant represents and warrants that there are no commissions due to any real estate brokerage company as a result
of Tenant’s actions or agreements in connection with this Lease. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord
from and against any claims, loss, liability, damages, judgment, fees, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s
fees and court costs) suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of a breach by Tenant of the representation and warranty contained
in the immediately preceding sentence or as a result of Tenant’s failure to pay commissions, fees or compensation due to
any broker who represented Tenant, whether or not disclosed. Landlord hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tenant from
and against any claims, loss, liability, damages, judgment, fees, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees
and court costs) suffered or incurred by Tenant as a result of any claim for any fee, commission or similar compensation with
respect to this Lease made by any broker, agent or finder claiming to have dealt on behalf of Landlord, whether or not disclosed.

2.13         
Tenant Service Charges:

 

From
time to time Landlord may make available to Tenant certain services for the exclusive benefit of Tenant (the “Tenant
Services”). In the event Tenant should subscribe to any one or more of these services, such subscription shall be by
separate agreement, except that the term of such agreement shall be concurrent with Tenant’s Lease Term and except as specifically
provided in such services agreement, Tenant shall not be entitled to cancel such services agreement prior to the end of the Lease
Term.

 

Payment
for services in the agreed amount shall be made monthly in the same manner as Base Rent payments, and a failure to make such payments
on time or the failure to conform to the terms of any service agreement shall be events of default hereunder.

 

Tenant
recognizes that Landlord may arrange for the provision of some or all of these Tenant Services through other vendors, including
affiliates of Landlord. Accordingly there may be procedures for notice and service for these services that differ from real estate
services. In any of these cases the notice provisions will be spelled out in a Service Agreement to be provided to Tenant from
Landlord prior to the Commencement Date.

 

ARTICLE 3

USE OF THE PREMISES

 

3.1             
Use Rules: The Premises shall be used for the Permitted Use as defined in Article 1 and for no other purposes. Landlord
is using New Market Tax Credit financing for the Project. As a condition of that financing, it is required that Tenant represent
and agree that it is not currently engaged, and that throughout the term of the Lease it will not become engaged, in any of the
trades or businesses, either as a principal or an ancillary business, that are defined as excluded businesses under Section 1.45D-1(d)(5)(iii)(B)
of the Federal Income Tax Regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to date (each a “Tenant
Excluded Business”). Tenant Excluded Businesses are defined as follows: the operation of any private or commercial golf
course, country club, massage parlor, hot tub facility, suntan facility, racetrack or other facility used for gambling, or any
store the principal activity of which is the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption off premises. Tenant represents, covenants
and warrants that to the extent subleasing is permitted under the terms of the Lease, it will not sublease all or any portion
of the Premises to any party that is, or during the term of the Lease may become engaged, either as a principal or an ancillary
business, in the operation of a Tenant Excluded Business. Tenant understands and agrees that any violation of this Section shall
constitute a default under the Lease and shall be grounds for immediate termination of the Lease.

 

Tenant
covenants and agrees that it will, at its expense, comply with all laws, ordinances, orders, directions, requirements, rules and
regulations of all governmental authorities (including Federal, State, county and municipal authorities) and of all insurance
bodies, which are now in force or may hereafter be in force, and which impose any duty upon Landlord or Tenant with respect to
the use, occupancy or alteration of the Premises. Tenant further covenants and agrees to abide in all respects with the Rules
and Regulations attached as Schedule 1 or as may be subsequently adopted by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right at all times
during the Lease Term to make and enforce additional rules and regulations or changes in the existing Rules and Regulations as
it may reasonably deem necessary in its discretion to protect the tenantability, safety, operation, and welfare of the Premises
and the Project.

    10

     

    

3.2             
Landlord’s Right of Entry: Landlord and its agents, employees and independent contractors shall have the right to enter
the Premises at reasonable hours to inspect and examine the Premises, to make repairs, additions, alterations and improvements,
to exhibit the Premises to mortgagees, prospective mortgagees, purchasers or tenants, and to inspect the Premises to ascertain
that Tenant is complying with all of its covenants and obligations under the Lease, all without being liable to Tenant in any
manner whatsoever for any claim for damages; provided, however, that except in case of emergency, Landlord shall give Tenant such
prior notification of an entry into the Premises as shall be reasonably practicable under the circumstances. Landlord shall have
the right to retain duplicate keys to all doors of the Premises. Landlord may take into and through the Premises any and all materials
that may be required to make repairs, additions, alterations or improvements. During the time when work is being carried on in
or about the Premises, the Rent provided herein shall not abate, and Tenant waives any claim or cause of action against Landlord
for damages by reason of interruption of Tenant’s business or loss of profits because of the prosecution of the work or
any part thereof. Landlord shall make reasonable efforts to perform any disruptive work after Tenant’s business hours and
shall cause the Premises to be reasonably cleaned up after any work before the Tenant is next expected to occupy the area.

 

3.3             
Covenant of Quiet Enjoyment: Provided Tenant performs the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease, and subject to the
terms and provisions hereof, Landlord covenants and agrees to take all necessary steps to secure and to maintain for the benefit
of Tenant the quiet and peaceful possession of the Premises, for the Lease Term, without hindrance, claim or molestation by Landlord
or any other person lawfully claiming under Landlord. Tenant acknowledges that the Building will not be as quiet as a traditional
office building because there will be a number of tenants in relatively small spaces, and the Project is intended to encourage
interaction and synergy among the entrepreneur occupants of the Building.

 

3.4             
Intentionally Deleted.

 

3.5             
Intentionally Deleted.

 

ARTICLE 4

ASSIGNMENT OF INTERESTS

 

4.1             
By Landlord: Landlord’s right to transfer or assign Landlord’s interest in the Building and the Premises, or any
part or parts thereof, shall be unrestricted. In the event of any transfer or assignment by Landlord which includes the Premises,
(i) this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, (ii) Tenant shall attorn to the new owner of the Premises, and (iii) Landlord’s
obligations to Tenant under the Lease shall cease and terminate and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord’s transferee or
assignee for performance of those obligations.

 

4.2             
Assignment and Subletting by Tenant: Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign this Lease or
any interest herein or in the Premises, whether directly, indirectly or by operation of law, or mortgage, pledge, encumber, hypothecate
or otherwise transfer or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises by any party other than Tenant
(collectively referred to in this Section as a “Transfer”). If Tenant is a partnership, a withdrawal or
change of any partners in the Tenant, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, shall be deemed a Transfer for purposes
of this Section. Landlord’s consent to one or more Transfers shall not terminate or waive this provision, and all subsequent
Transfers shall likewise be made only upon obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. Without limiting the foregoing, in
no event shall Tenant make a Transfer if the proposed Transfer or resulting use would contravene any restrictive covenant (including
any exclusive use) granted to any other tenant of the Building or would contravene the provisions of Section 3.1 of this
Lease.

    11

     

    

Upon
Landlord’s receipt of a request by Tenant to make a Transfer, Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s option,
to exercise in writing any of the following options: (a) to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises proposed to
be assigned or sublet; (b) to consent to the proposed Transfer, subject to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Section;
or (c) to refuse to consent to the proposed Transfer, which refusal shall be deemed to have been exercised unless Landlord
gives Tenant written notice providing otherwise. The consent of Landlord to any proposed Transfer may be withheld by Landlord
in its sole and absolute discretion.

 

Landlord
may, as a prior condition to considering any request for consent to a Transfer, require Tenant to obtain and submit current financial
statements of any proposed subtenant or assignee and such other financial documentation relative to the proposed subtenant or
assignee as Landlord may reasonably require. In the event Landlord consents to a Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee
to cover Landlord’s accounting costs plus any legal fees incurred by Landlord as a result of the Transfer. Landlord may
require an additional security deposit from the assignee or subtenant as a condition of its consent. Any consideration, in excess
of the Rent and other charges and sums due and payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, paid to Tenant by any assignee
or subtenant under or in connection with a Transfer shall be promptly remitted by Tenant to Landlord as additional rent, and Tenant
shall have no right or claim thereto as against Landlord.

 

Sublessees
or transferees of the Premises shall become directly liable to Landlord for all obligations of Tenant under the Lease, without
relieving Tenant (or any guarantor of Tenant’s obligations) of any liability for such obligations, and Tenant shall remain
obligated for all liability to Landlord arising under this Lease during the entire remaining Lease Term including any extensions
thereof, whether or not authorized herein.

 

No
assignment of this Lease consented to by Landlord shall be effective unless and until Landlord shall receive an original assignment
and assumption agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, signed by Tenant and Tenant’s proposed assignee,
whereby the assignee assumes due performance of this Lease for the balance of the remaining Lease Term of this Lease. No subletting
of the Premises, or any part thereof, consented to by Landlord shall be effective unless and until there shall have been delivered
to Landlord an agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, signed by Tenant and the proposed sublessee, whereby
the sublessee acknowledges the right of Landlord to continue or terminate any sublease, in Landlord’s sole discretion, upon
termination of this Lease, and the sublessee agrees to recognize and attorn to Landlord in the event that Landlord elects to continue
the sublease.

    12

     

    

4.3             
Subordination and Attornment: Tenant agrees that this Lease and all rights of Tenant are and shall be subject and subordinate
to any mortgage now or hereafter encumbering the Premises or the Project or any part thereof, to all advances made upon the security
of the mortgage, to all amendments, modifications, renewals, consolidations, extensions and restatements of the mortgage, and
to any replacements and substitutions for the mortgage (collectively referred to as a “Mortgage”), provided
that this Lease shall be recognized by the mortgagee and that the rights of Tenant shall remain in full force and effect during
the term of this Lease, so long as Tenant shall continue to perform all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease. The term
“Mortgage” shall include any deed to secure debt, deed of trust, security deed, and any other instrument creating
a lien in connection with any other method of financing or refinancing. The terms of this provision shall be self-operative and
no further instrument of subordination shall be required. Further, Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority
as attorney-in-fact for Tenant and in Tenant’s name, place and stead, to subordinate Tenant’s interest under this
Lease to the lien of any Mortgage, provided that the subordination shall be upon the express condition that this Lease shall be
recognized by the mortgagee and that the rights of Tenant shall remain in full force and effect during the term of this Lease,
so long as Tenant shall continue to perform all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant
shall execute and return within ten (10) days after receipt any subordination agreement or other instrument or certificate that
may be reasonably required to carry out the intent of this Section, whether the requirement is that of Landlord, a mortgagee,
or any other party in interest.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any mortgagee elects to have this Lease superior to its Mortgage and signifies its election in the instrument
creating its lien or by separate recorded instrument, then this Lease shall be superior to the Mortgage.

 

In
the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any Mortgage covering the Premises or the Project, or in the event
the interests of Landlord under this Lease are transferred by reason of deed in lieu of foreclosure or other legal proceedings,
Tenant shall, at the option of the transferee or purchaser at foreclosure (referred to as the “acquiring party” in
this paragraph), attorn to the acquiring party and shall recognize and be bound and obligated to the acquiring party as the Landlord
under this Lease; provided, however, that the acquiring party shall not be (i) bound by any payment of Rent for more than
one (1) month in advance, except prepayments in the nature of security for the performance by Tenant of its obligations under
this Lease (and then only if the prepayments have been deposited with and are under the control of the acquiring party); (ii)
bound by any amendment or modification of this Lease made without the express written consent of the mortgagee of the Landlord,
provided however, that for this subsection to be effective Tenant must have first received notice of the existence of the mortgagee
and its insistence on this requirement; (iii) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord); (iv) subject
to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord); or (v) bound by any verbal
warranty or representation of any prior landlord (including Landlord) relating to work performed by any prior landlord (including
Landlord) under this Lease. Tenant agrees to execute any attornment agreement not in conflict herewith that is requested by Landlord,
the mortgagee or the acquiring party. Tenant’s obligation to attorn to the acquiring party shall survive the exercise of
any foreclosure or other proceeding. Tenant agrees that the institution of any suit, action or other proceeding by any mortgagee
to realize on Landlord’s interest in the Premises or the Building pursuant to the powers granted to a mortgagee under its
mortgage shall not, by operation of law or otherwise, result in the cancellation or termination of the obligations of Tenant under
the Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree that notwithstanding that this Lease is expressly subject and subordinate to any mortgages,
any mortgagee, its successors and assigns, or other holder of a mortgage or of a note secured thereby, may sell the Premises or
the Building in the manner provided in the mortgage and may, at the option of the mortgagee, its successors and assigns, or other
holder of the mortgage or note secured thereby, make the sale of the Premises or Building subject to this Lease.

    13

     

    

4.4             
Estoppel Certificates: Within ten (10) days after request by Landlord or Tenant, the other party agrees to execute and deliver
to the requesting party in recordable form an estoppel certificate addressed to the requesting party, any mortgagee or assignee
of the requesting party’s interest in the Premises or the Building or any part thereof, or any purchaser of the Premises
or the Building or any part thereof, certifying (if true) that this Lease is unmodified and is in full force and effect (and if
there have been modifications, that the Lease is in full force and effect as modified and stating all modifications); that there
are no defenses or offsets against the enforcement thereof or stating those claimed by the responding party; and stating the date
to which Rent and other charges have been paid. The certificate shall also include any other information reasonably required by
the mortgagee, proposed mortgagee, assignee, purchaser, or requesting party. The certificate may be relied upon by the requesting
party, any mortgagee, proposed mortgagee, assignee, purchaser and any other party to whom the certificate is addressed.

 

ARTICLE 5

TAXES AND INSURANCE

 

5.1          Tenant Taxes: Tenant shall pay promptly when due all taxes directly or indirectly imposed or assessed upon Tenant’s
gross sales, business operations, machinery, equipment, trade fixtures and other personal property or assets, whether those taxes
are assessed against Tenant, Landlord or the Building. In the event that the taxes are imposed or assessed against Landlord or
the Building, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with all applicable tax bills, public charges and other assessments or impositions,
and Tenant shall promptly pay them either directly to the taxing authority or, at Landlord’s option, to Landlord.

 

If
Tenant should fail to pay any tax or other governmentally imposed assessment or charge of any kind, and if Landlord should pay
the tax, assessment or charge on behalf of Tenant as authorized by the default remedies in Article 7 below, then Landlord
shall be entitled to the same rights and priorities as the governmental body or agency would have had in collecting the amounts
due from Tenant, including any penalties or interest.

 

5.2          Insurance: Tenant shall obtain at its expense and maintain throughout the Lease Term:

 

		(i)	a
                                         policy or policies of commercial property insurance, issued on an “all risks”
                                         basis and insuring the full replacement cost of its furniture, fixtures, equipment, supplies
                                         and other property owned, leased, held or possessed by it and contained in the Premises,
                                         together with the excess value of any improvements to the Premises over the Tenant Improvement
                                         Allowance, with a replacement cost endorsement sufficient to prevent Tenant from becoming
                                         a co-insurer, and with Landlord and any mortgagee of the Project being insured as their
                                         respective interests may appear;

    14

     

    

		(ii)	workmen’s
                                         compensation insurance as required by applicable law;

 

		(iii)	a
                                         policy or policies of commercial general liability insurance, written on an occurrence
                                         basis and insuring Tenant, Landlord, any mortgagee of the Project, and any other person
                                         designated by Landlord (such as the manager of the Project), against any and all liability
                                         for injury to or death of a person or persons and for damage to property occasioned by
                                         or arising out of any construction work being done on the Premises, or arising out of
                                         the condition, use or occupancy of the Premises, or in any way occasioned by or arising
                                         out of the activities of Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees, guests or licensees
                                         in the Premises, or other portions of the Building or the Project, with combined single
                                         limits for both damage to property and personal injury and in amounts not less than Three
                                         Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for each occurrence; the insurance shall, in addition,
                                         extend to any liability of Tenant arising out of the indemnities provided for in this
                                         Lease; and

 

		(iv)	any
                                         other types of insurance in form and amount which Landlord shall reasonably deem to be
                                         prudent for Tenant to carry.

 

All
insurance policies procured and maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Section shall name Landlord and any additional parties
designated by Landlord as additional insureds, shall be carried with companies licensed to do business in the State of South Carolina
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and shall be non-cancelable and not subject to material change except after twenty (20) days
written notice to Landlord. The required policies or duly executed certificates of insurance with respect thereto, accompanied
by proof of payment of the premium for the policies, shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the Rent Commencement Date, and renewals
of the policies shall be delivered to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each respective policy term.

 

Landlord
will insure its property interests to full replacement value and will carry liability and other insurance in amounts and against
those risks normally insured against by owners of first class office buildings in Greenville, S.C.

 

5.3          Waiver
of Subrogation: Landlord and Tenant shall each have included in all policies of commercial property insurance, business interruption
insurance, and to the extent applicable, other insurance obtained by them covering the Premises, the Building and contents therein,
a waiver by the insurer of all right of subrogation against the other party in connection with any loss or damage thereby insured
against. Any additional premium for the waiver shall be paid by the primary insured. To the full extent permitted by law, Landlord
and Tenant each waives all right of recovery against the other for, and agrees to release the other from liability for, loss or
damage to the extent the loss or damage is covered by valid and collectible insurance in effect at the time of the loss or damage
or would be covered by the insurance required to be maintained under this Lease by the party seeking recovery.

    15

     

    

ARTICLE 6

MAINTENANCE AND ALTERATIONS

 

6.1             
Repairs: Landlord shall maintain the Building (excluding the Premises and other portions of the Building leased to other tenants)
and any public areas in good order and repair, subject to normal wear and tear and to casualty and condemnation. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the cost of any repairs or maintenance to the Building and any public areas necessitated by the intentional acts
or negligence of Tenant or its agents, contractors, employees, invitees, licensees, tenants or assigns shall be borne solely by
Tenant, shall be deemed Rent, and shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord upon demand. Landlord shall not be required to make
any repairs or improvements to the Premises except structural repairs necessary for safety and tenantability.

 

Tenant
covenants and agrees that it will take good care of the Premises and all alterations, additions and improvements thereto and will
keep and maintain the Premises in good condition and repair, except for normal wear and tear. Tenant shall at once report to Landlord,
in writing, any defective or dangerous condition known to Tenant. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant hereby waives
all rights to make repairs at the expense of Landlord or in lieu thereof to vacate the Premises as may be provided by any law,
statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect. Landlord has no obligation and has made no promise to alter, remodel, improve,
repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof, except as specifically and expressly set forth in this Lease.

 

6.2             
Alterations: Except for any initial improvement of the Premises pursuant to Exhibit D, which shall be governed
by the provisions of Exhibit D, Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations, additions or improvements to
the Premises or any part thereof, or attach any fixtures or equipment thereto, without first obtaining Landlord’s written
consent. With respect to any alteration, addition or improvement which does not affect the structure of the Building, does not
affect any of the Building’s systems (e.g., mechanical, electrical or plumbing), does not diminish the capacity of the Building
systems available to other portions of the Building, is not visible from the common areas or exterior of the Building, and is
in full compliance with all laws, orders, ordinances, directions, requirements, rules and regulations of all governmental authorities,
Landlord’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises consented
to by Landlord shall be made by Landlord or a contractor approved by Landlord. At the option of Landlord, any work performed by
a contractor shall be performed under Landlord’s supervision, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs thereof
(including a reasonable charge for Landlord’s overhead), as Rent, within ten (10) days after receipt of a statement. All
alterations, additions and improvements shall become Landlord’s property at the expiration or earlier termination of the
Lease Term and shall remain on the Premises without compensation to Tenant unless Landlord elects by notice to Tenant to have
Tenant remove the alterations, additions and improvements, in which event, notwithstanding any contrary provisions contained in
Article 9, Tenant at its sole cost and expense shall promptly restore the Premises to its condition prior to the installation
of the alterations, additions and improvements, normal wear and tear excepted.

 

6.3             
No Mechanic’s Lien Consent: Landlord is not responsible to third parties for repairs or improvements made by or for
Tenant, regardless of any approval given to Tenant to have the repairs or improvements made. In no event shall the terms of the
Lease, or any consent given hereunder by Landlord, be construed as consent of Landlord that would entitle a person furnishing
labor or materials to be paid by Landlord or to place a lien against the premises or the property of Landlord under the South
Carolina Mechanic’s Lien Statute, S.C. Code Ann. Section 29-5-10, et seq., or any similar or related provisions.

    16

     

    

ARTICLE 7

BREACH, DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

 

7.1           Tenant’s Default: The following events shall be deemed to be events of default by Tenant under this Lease:

 

(i)       Tenant
fails in any respect to comply with the requirements of Article 2 for the payment of Rent or any other charge or assessment;

 

(ii)       Tenant
fails to comply with any term, provision, covenant or warranty made under this Lease by Tenant, other than the payment of the
Rent or any other charge or assessment, and does not cure the failure within fifteen (15) days after notice thereof to Tenant
(or as to cures which reasonably take longer, does not begin within that period and thereafter diligently prosecute the cure);

 

(iii)       Tenant
or any guarantor of this Lease makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits in writing its inability to
pay its debts as they become due, or files a petition in bankruptcy, or is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent, or files a petition
in any proceeding seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief
under any present or future statute, law or regulation, or files an answer admitting or fails timely to contest the material allegations
of a petition filed against it in any such proceeding;

 

(iv)       a
proceeding is commenced against Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment,
liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, and the proceeding is not dismissed
within forty-five (45) days after the commencement thereof;

 

(v)       a
receiver or trustee is appointed for the Premises or for all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or of any guarantor
of this Lease;

 

(vi)       Tenant
abandons or vacates all or any portion of the Premises or fails to take possession thereof as provided in this Lease;

 

(vii)       Tenant
does or permits to be done anything which creates a lien upon the Premises or the Project and the lien is not removed or discharged
within fifteen (15) days after the filing thereof;

 

(viii)       Tenant
fails to return a properly executed instrument to Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3 within the time
period provided in Section 4.3; or

    17

     

    

(ix)       Tenant
fails to return a properly executed estoppel certificate to Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.4 within
the time period provided in Section 4.4.

 

7.2          Landlord’s Remedies: Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the option to pursue
any one or more of the following remedies without any notice or demand whatsoever:

 

(i)       Landlord
may terminate this Lease. In that event, Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord; and if Tenant fails to do
so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in Rent, enter upon and
take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part
thereof, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of resulting damages. Tenant agrees to pay to
Landlord on demand the amount of all loss and damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of the termination of the Lease, whether
through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise.

 

(ii)       Landlord
may terminate Tenant’s right of possession (but not this Lease). In that event, Landlord may enter upon and take possession
of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, by force
if necessary, or by dispossessory suit or otherwise, without releasing Tenant from any liability under the Lease, without terminating
this Lease, and without being liable for prosecution or any claim of resulting damages. Landlord may make any alterations, redecoration
and repairs as in Landlord’s judgment may be necessary to relet the Premises; and Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation
to, relet the Premises or any portion thereof in Landlord’s or Tenant’s name, but for the account of Tenant, for any
term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Lease Term) and at the rents and upon any other terms as Landlord
may deem advisable, with or without advertisement and by private negotiations, and receive the rent for the re-letting. Tenant
agrees to pay to Landlord (a) the deficiency, if any, between all Rent owed by Tenant under the Lease and the total rent obtained
by Landlord’s re-letting that is applicable to the Lease Term, and (b) Landlord’s expenses in redecorating and
restoring the Premises and all costs incident to re-letting, including broker’s commissions and lease assumptions. In no
event shall Tenant be entitled to any rents received by Landlord for the re-letting that are in excess of the amounts owed by
Tenant under the Lease.

 

(iii)       Landlord
may enter upon the Premises, by force if necessary, without being liable for prosecution or any claim of damages, and do whatever
Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease. In that event, Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which Landlord may incur in effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations
under this Lease, and Tenant further agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any damages resulting to Tenant from Landlord’s
action, whether caused by negligence of Landlord or otherwise.

    18

     

    

If
this Lease is terminated by Landlord as a result of the occurrence of an event of default, Landlord may declare the entire amount
of Rent and other charges and assessments which in Landlord’s reasonable determination would become due and payable during
the remainder of the Lease Term (including, but not limited to, increases in Rent that would occur under Article 2), discounted
to present value by using a discount factor of five percent (5%) per annum, to be due and payable immediately. Upon the acceleration
of these amounts, Tenant agrees to pay the amounts at once, together with all Rent and other charges and assessments then due,
at Landlord’s address as provided herein. Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlord’s actual damages would be impossible
to ascertain, that the amounts set forth above are a reasonable estimate thereof, and that the payment of those amounts shall
not constitute a penalty or forfeiture but shall constitute liquidated damages for Tenant’s failure to comply with the terms
and provisions of this Lease. Upon making the entire payment required by this paragraph, Tenant shall receive from Landlord all
rents received by Landlord from other tenants renting the Premises or any portion thereof during the Lease Term (with appropriate
allocations of the rents in the event the other tenants lease space in addition to the Premises), provided that the monies to
which Tenant shall so become entitled shall in no event exceed the entire amount actually paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant
to this paragraph, less all of Landlord’s costs and expenses (including, without limitation, Landlord’s expenses in
redecorating and restoring the Premises and all costs incident to the re-letting, including broker’s commissions and lease
assumptions) incurred in connection with or in any way related to the re-letting of the Premises.

 

Pursuit
of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any other remedy provided in this Lease or any other remedy provided
by law or at equity. Nor shall pursuit of any remedy provided in this Lease constitute an election of remedies that would preclude
the later election of an alternate remedy, or a forfeiture or waiver of any Rent or other charges and assessments payable by Tenant
and due to Landlord or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of violation of any of the terms, covenants, warranties and
provisions of the Lease. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord or any other action taken by or on behalf
of Landlord shall be construed to be an acceptance of a surrender of this Lease or an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease
unless written notice of that intention is given to Tenant. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies provided
in the Lease upon an event of default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of the default. In determining the
amount of loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease or the deficiency arising by reason
of any re-letting of the Premises by Landlord as above provided, allowance shall be made for the expense of repossession. Tenant
agrees to pay to Landlord all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in the enforcement of this Lease or any associated Guaranty,
including without limitation the fees of Landlord’s attorneys as provided in Article 11.

 

7.3             
Waiver of Breach: No waiver of any breach of any covenant, warranty, agreement, provision, or condition contained in this
Lease shall be construed as a waiver of the covenant, warranty, provision, agreement or condition or of any subsequent breach
thereof. If any breach shall occur and afterwards be compromised, settled or adjusted, this Lease shall continue in full force
and effect as if no breach had occurred.

 

7.4             
Force Majeure: If, as a result of strike, lockout, labor trouble, civil commotion, Act of God, or any other cause beyond a
party’s control (collectively “force majeure”), Tenant is delayed in performing any of its obligations
under this Lease, other than Tenant’s obligation to take possession of the Premises on or before the Rent Commencement Date
and to pay Rent and all other charges and sums payable by Tenant under the Lease, Tenant’s performance shall be excused
for a period equal to the delay, and Tenant shall not be considered to be in default under this Lease during that period with
respect to the obligation whose performance has been delayed.

    19

     

    

In
the event of force majeure resulting in Landlord’s inability to supply the services or perform the other obligations required
of Landlord under the Lease, this Lease shall not terminate, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent and all other charges and sums
due and payable by Tenant shall not be affected or excused, and Landlord shall not be considered to be in default under this Lease.

 

7.5             
Landlord’s Equity in Project: If Landlord is in default with respect to its obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall
look solely to the equity of Landlord in and to the Building and the Land for satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies, if any.
It is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord’s liability under the terms of this Lease shall in no event exceed the
amount of its interest in and to the Land and Building. In no event shall any partner of Landlord or joint venturer in Landlord,
nor any officer, director or shareholder of Landlord or of any partner or joint venturer of Landlord, be personally liable with
respect to any of the provisions of this Lease.

 

7.6             
Damage or Theft of Personal Property: All personal property brought into the Premises by Tenant or by Tenant’s employees,
agents, or business visitors shall be at the risk of Tenant, and Landlord shall not be liable for theft of or damage to that property
occasioned by any act of co-tenants, occupants, invitees or other users of the Building or of any other person. Tenant shall carry
insurance under Article 5 providing coverage for damage to any property in or upon the Premises that results from gas, smoke,
water, rain, ice or snow that issues or leaks from or forms upon any part of the Building or from the pipes or plumbing work of
the Building, or from any other source whatsoever.

 

7.7             
Landlord’s Lien: In the event Tenant fails to vacate the Premises on or before December 31, 2020, Landlord shall have
a valid first lien upon all of the personal property of Tenant situated in the Premises to secure payment of Rent and other sums
and charges due from Tenant to Landlord and to secure the performance by Tenant of each and all of the covenants, warranties,
agreements and conditions of the Lease. In such event, no personal property shall be removed from the Premises without the consent
of Landlord until all arrearage in Rent and other charges and any and all other sums of money due under the Lease have been paid
and discharged and until this Lease and all of its covenants, conditions, agreements and provisions have been fully performed
by Tenant. Tenant shall from time to time execute any financing statements and other instruments necessary to perfect the security
interest granted herein. The lien herein granted may be foreclosed in the manner and form provided by law for the foreclosure
of security instruments or chattel mortgages, or in any other manner provided by law. This Section 7.7 is intended as and
constitutes a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of South Carolina.

 

7.8             
Indemnification by Tenant: Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord from and agrees to hold Landlord harmless against any and all
liability, loss, cost, damage or expense, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, imposed
on Landlord by any person whomsoever and caused in whole or in part by any act or omission of Tenant or any of its employees,
contractors, servants, agents, subtenants, assignees, representatives or invitees, or otherwise occurring in connection with this
Lease. The provisions of this Section shall survive any termination of this Lease.

    20

     

    

ARTICLE 8

CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION

 

8.1             
Destruction: If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty, they shall be repaired or rebuilt as speedily as practical
under the circumstances at the expense of Landlord, unless the Lease is terminated as provided in this Section; and during the
period required for restoration, a just and proportionate part of Rent shall be abated until the Premises are repaired or rebuilt.

 

If
(i) the Premises are damaged to such an extent that repairs cannot, in Landlord’s judgment, be completed within one hundred
eighty (180) days after the date of the commencement of repair of the casualty, or (ii) the Premises are damaged or destroyed
as a result of a risk which is not insured under the insurance policies required under the Lease, or (iii) the Premises are damaged
or destroyed during the last eighteen (18) months of the Lease Term, or (iv) the Building is damaged in whole or in part (whether
or not the Premises are damaged) to such an extent that the Building cannot, in Landlord’s judgment, be operated economically
as an integral unit, then Landlord at its option may terminate this Lease by notice in writing to Tenant within sixty (60) days
after the occurrence of the event triggering the right of termination.

 

If
the Premises are (i) damaged to such an extent that repairs cannot, in Landlord’s judgment, be completed within one hundred
eighty (180) days after the date of the commencement of repair of the casualty, or (ii) substantially damaged during the last
eighteen (18) months of the Lease Term, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by notice in writing to Landlord within
the later of (x) thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the event triggering the right of termination or (y) in the
case of (i) above, fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s notice to Tenant that repairs cannot be completed within one hundred
eighty (180) days. Unless Landlord or Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as provided above, the Lease will remain in full force
and effect, and Landlord shall repair the damage at its expense to the extent required under the following paragraph and as expeditiously
as possible under the circumstances.

 

If
Landlord should elect or be obligated pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section to repair or rebuild because of
any damage or destruction, Landlord’s obligation shall be limited to the original Building and any other work or improvements
which were originally performed or installed at Landlord’s expense as described in Exhibit D or with the proceeds
of any Tenant Improvement Allowance. The cost of performing the repairs in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be
Tenant’s responsibility. If the cost of performing the repairs exceeds the actual proceeds of insurance paid or payable
to Landlord on account of the casualty, or if Landlord’s mortgagee or the lessor under a ground or underlying lease shall
require that any insurance proceeds from a casualty loss be paid to it, Landlord may terminate this Lease.

 

In
no event shall Landlord be liable for any loss or damage sustained by Tenant by reason of casualties mentioned above or any other
accidental casualty.

 

8.2             
Eminent Domain: If all or part of the Premises are taken for any public or quasi-public use by virtue of the exercise of the
power of eminent domain or by private purchase in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date
of taking, and in the case of a partial taking, either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as to the
balance of the Premises by written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after the date of taking; provided, however, that
a condition to the exercise by Tenant of this right to terminate shall be that the portion of the Premises taken shall be of an
extent and nature that substantially handicaps, impedes or impairs Tenant’s use of the balance of the Premises. If title
to so much of the Project is taken that a reasonable amount of reconstruction thereof will not in Landlord’s sole discretion
result in the Building being a practical improvement and reasonably suitable for use for the purpose for which it is designed,
then this Lease shall terminate on the date that the condemning authority actually takes possession of the part so condemned or
purchased.

    21

     

    

If
this Lease is terminated under the provisions of this Section, Rent shall be apportioned and adjusted as of the date of termination.
Except as specifically provided in this Section, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or against the condemning authority
for the value of any leasehold estate or for the value of the unexpired Lease Term.

 

If
there is a partial taking of the Project and this Lease is not terminated under the provisions of this Section, then this Lease
shall remain in full force and effect, and Landlord shall, within a reasonable time thereafter, repair or reconstruct the remaining
portion of the Building to the extent necessary to make it a complete architectural unit; provided, that in complying with this
obligation, Landlord shall not be required to expend more than the net proceeds of the condemnation award which are paid to Landlord.
Upon any such partial taking, Landlord shall have the right to reduce the Base Operating Expenses used to calculate Tenant’s
Additional Rent under Article 2 to reflect the amount of operational savings arising from the partial taking, as determined
by Landlord in its sole but reasonable discretion.

 

Nothing
herein shall be construed to preclude Tenant from prosecuting any claim directly against the condemning authority for loss of
business; for damage to, and cost of removal of, trade fixtures, furniture and other personal property belonging to Tenant; and
for the unamortized cost of leasehold improvements to the extent they were installed at Tenant’s expense (and not with the
proceeds of the Tenant Improvement Allowance); provided, however, that no claim by Tenant shall diminish or adversely affect Landlord’s
award. However, all compensation awarded or paid to Landlord upon a total or partial taking of the Premises or the Project shall
belong to and be the property of Landlord without any participation by Tenant.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section, if during the Lease Term the use or occupancy of any part of the Project or the Premises
shall be taken or appropriated temporarily for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation,
or by right of eminent domain, this Lease shall be and remain unaffected by the taking or appropriation, and Tenant shall continue
to pay in full all Rent payable under the Lease during the Lease Term. In the event of any such temporary appropriation or taking,
Tenant shall be entitled to receive that portion of any award which represents compensation for the loss of use or occupancy of
the Premises during the Lease Term, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive that portion of any award which represents the cost
of restoration and compensation for the loss of use or occupancy of the Premises after the end of the Lease Term.

    22

     

    

ARTICLE 9

LEASE EXPIRATION

 

9.1             
Surrender of Premises: Upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Premises
and every part thereof and all alterations, additions and improvements thereto, broom clean and in good condition and state of
repair, excepting only reasonable wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty. If Tenant is not then in default, Tenant
shall remove all personalty and equipment not attached to the Premises that it has placed upon the Premises, and Tenant shall
restore the Premises to the condition immediately preceding the time of placement thereof If Tenant fails or refuses to remove
all of Tenant’s effects, personalty and equipment from the Premises upon the expiration or termination of this Lease for
any cause whatsoever or upon Tenant being dispossessed by process of law or otherwise, the effects, personalty and equipment shall
be deemed conclusively to be abandoned and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without
written notice to Tenant or any other party and without obligation to account for them. Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand any
and all expenses incurred by Landlord in the removal of this property, including, without limitation, the cost of removal and
disposal if elected, the cost of repairing any damage to the Building or Project caused by the removal of the property, and storage
charges (if Landlord elects to store the property). The covenants and conditions of this Section shall survive any expiration
or termination of this Lease.

 

9.2             
Holding Over: If Tenant remains in possession after expiration or termination of the Lease Term with or without Landlord’s
written consent, Tenant shall become a tenant-at-sufferance, and there shall be no renewal of this Lease by operation of law.
During the period of any holding over, all provisions of this Lease shall be and remain in effect except that the monthly rent
shall be double the amount of Rent (including any adjustments as provided herein) payable for the last full calendar month of
the Lease Term, including renewals or extensions. The inclusion of this Section in the Lease shall not be construed as any
consent by Landlord for Tenant to hold over.

 

ARTICLE 10

Hazardous Substances Prohibited: Tenant hereby covenants and agrees that Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substances
(as defined below) to be generated, placed, held, stored, used, located or disposed of at the Project or any part thereof The
use or storage of Hazardous Substances commonly and legally used for the purposes permitted by this Lease is permitted for those
purposes, but only so long as (i) the quantities do not pose a threat to public health or to the environment, (ii) the use and
quantities would not necessitate a “response action”, as that term is defined in CERCLA (as defined below), and (iii)
Tenant strictly complies or causes compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws (as defined below).

 

10.2         
Definitions: The term “Environmental Laws” shall mean and include any present and future federal, state,
or local law, statute, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, ruling, order, decree, decision, or other governmental directive or
requirement, as well as any common law, that pertains or relates to health, safety, or the environment (including but not limited
to ground, air, water, groundwater or noise pollution or contamination), and shall include without limitation the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act of 1976 (“RCRA”), any so-called federal, state or local “superfund” or “superlien”
or environmental clean-up statutes, and all regulations, rules, guidelines, or standards promulgated pursuant thereto, all as
amended from time to time.

    23

     

    

The
term “Hazardous Substances” shall mean and include any substance (i) that is listed, defined or regulated as
a hazardous substance or hazardous waste or otherwise classified as hazardous, toxic, or otherwise of environmental concern by
or pursuant to any Environmental Law, or (ii) that causes or poses a threat to cause any contamination or nuisance in or around
the Building or the Project or any hazard to the environment or to the health or safety or persons in or about the Building or
the Project.

 

10.3         
Indemnification: Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all losses,
liabilities (including strict liability), damages, injuries, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), costs of settlement
or judgment, and claims of any and every kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, Landlord by any person,
entity or governmental agency and arising in whole or in part from Tenant’s violation of the covenants contained in this
Article. The obligations of Tenant under this Article shall survive any expiration or termination of this Lease.

 

ARTICLE 11

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

11.1

effective only upon execution by Landlord and Tenant and upon execution of any required Guaranty Agreement in the form attached
as Exhibit F.

 

11.2         
Tenant’s Authority: If Tenant executes this Lease as a corporation, each of the persons executing this Lease on behalf
of Tenant personally represents and warrants that Tenant is a duly incorporated or (if a foreign corporation) a duly qualified
corporation and is fully authorized and qualified to do business in the State of South Carolina, that the corporation has full
right and authority to enter into this Lease, and that each person signing on behalf of the corporation is an officer of the corporation
and is authorized to sign on behalf of the corporation. If Tenant executes this Lease as a partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship
or other business entity, each of the persons executing on behalf of Tenant personally represents and warrants that Tenant is
a duly authorized and existing entity, that Tenant has full right and authority to enter into this Lease, that all persons executing
this Lease on behalf of the entity are authorized to do so on behalf of the entity, and that the execution is fully binding upon
the entity and its partners, joint venturers or principal, as the case may be. Upon the request of Landlord, Tenant shall deliver
to Landlord documentation satisfactory to Landlord evidencing Tenant’s compliance with this Section; and Tenant agrees to
promptly execute all necessary and reasonable applications or documents as reasonably requested by Landlord or required by the
jurisdiction in which the Premises is located to permit the issuance of necessary permits and certificates for Tenant’s
use and occupancy of the Premises.

 

11.3         
Joint and Several Liability: If Tenant is comprised of more than one person, corporation, partnership or other entity, the
liability under the Lease of all those persons, corporations, partnerships or other entities shall be joint and several.

    24

     

    

11.4         
Severability: If any clause or provision of the Lease is illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, the
remainder of this Lease shall not be affected; and in place of each clause or provision of this Lease which is illegal, invalid
or unenforceable, there shall be added as a part of this Lease a clause or provision as nearly identical to the illegal, invalid
or unenforceable clause or provision as may be legal, valid and enforceable.

 

11.5         
Entire Agreement: This Lease contains the entire agreement of the parties regarding the terms of the Lease and the Premises,
and no representations, inducements, promises or agreements, oral or otherwise, between the parties that are not incorporated
in this Lease shall be of any force or effect.

 

11.6         
Amendment: This Lease may not be altered, waived, amended or extended except by an instrument in writing signed by Landlord
and Tenant.

 

11.7         
Recording: This Lease is not in recordable form, and Tenant agrees not to record this Lease or any short form or memorandum
thereof without the written consent of Landlord.

 

11.8         
No Waiver: No failure of Landlord to exercise any right of Landlord under the Lease or to insist upon strict compliance by
Tenant with any obligation of Tenant under the Lease, and no custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms of the
Lease, shall constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to demand exact compliance with the terms of the Lease.

 

11.9         
Headings: The use of headings in this Lease is solely for the convenience of indexing its various paragraphs and shall not
be considered in construing or interpreting any provision of this Lease.

 

11.10     
Governing Law: The laws of the State of South Carolina shall govern the validity, performance and enforcement of this Lease.

 

11.11     
Attorneys’ Fees: If any Rent or other debt owing by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease is collected by or through an
attorney, whether from Tenant or any Guarantor, Tenant agrees to pay as attorneys’ fees an additional amount equal to fifteen
percent (15%) of the sum owed. If Landlord uses the services of an attorney in order to secure compliance with any other provisions
of this Lease, to recover damages from Tenant or any Guarantor for any breach or default of any other provisions of this Lease,
or to terminate this Lease or evict Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all attorneys’ fees
and expenses so incurred by Landlord.

 

11.12     
Time of Essence: Time is of the essence of this Lease. Whenever a certain day is stated for payment or performance of any
obligation of Tenant or Landlord, the date shall be considered a part of the consideration for this Lease. However, if the day
stated for payment or performance of any obligation of Landlord or Tenant is a Saturday or Sunday or a State of South Carolina
or federal holiday, the time for payment or performance shall be extended until the end of the next day that is not a Saturday,
Sunday, or state or federal holiday.

 

11.13     
Cumulative Rights: All rights, powers and privileges conferred under the Lease upon Landlord and Tenant shall be cumulative
to, but not restrictive of or in lieu of, those otherwise conferred by law.

in either case to Landlord or Tenant at their respective address set forth in Article 1 or at such other address as either
party shall have given to the other by notice as herein provided. Tenant hereby designates and appoints as its agent to receive
notice of all distraint proceedings, and all other notices required under this Lease, the person in charge of the Premises at
the time the notice is given or occupying the Premises at that time; and, if no person is in charge of or occupying the Premises,
then service or notice may be made by attaching the notice on the main entrance to the Premises, in lieu of mailing.

 

11.15     
Binding Effect: This Lease shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and their respective
successors and assigns. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to create a right of assignment in conflict with any other
provision of this Lease.

Schedule

Rules
and Regulations

 

1.       No
sign, picture, advertisement or notice visible from the exterior of the Premises shall be installed, affixed, inscribed, painted
or otherwise displayed by Tenant on any part of the Premises or the Building unless it is first approved by Landlord. Any sign,
picture, advertisement or notice approved by Landlord shall be painted or installed for Tenant at Tenant’s cost by Landlord
or by a party approved by Landlord. No awnings, curtains, blinds, shades or screens shall be attached to, hung in, or used in
connection with any window or door of the Premises without the prior consent of Landlord, including approval by Landlord of the
quality, type, design, color and manner of attachment.

 

2.       Tenant
shall not do or permit to be done in or about the Premises or Building anything which shall increase the rate of insurance on
the Building or obstruct or interfere with the rights of other lessees of Landlord or annoy them in any way, including, but not
limited to, using any musical instrument, making loud or unseemly noises, or singing. The Premises shall not be used for sleeping
or lodging. No cooking or related activities shall be done or permitted by Tenant in the Premises except with permission of Landlord.
No vending machines of any kind will be installed, permitted or used on any part of the Premises without the prior consent of
Landlord. No part of the Building or Premises shall be used for gambling, immoral or other unlawful purposes. No intoxicating
beverage shall be sold in the Building or Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. No area outside of the Premises
shall be used for storage purposes at any time.

 

3.       No
birds or animals of any kind shall be brought into the Building (other than trained seeing-eye dogs used by the visually impaired).
No motorcycles or other motorized vehicles shall be brought into the Building.

 

4.       The
entrance lobbies into tenant spaces shall belong exclusively to the tenant leasing such space, but each tenant agrees to make
these lobby areas available to the public as common areas. In turn, each tenant agrees on behalf of its employees that it will
not monopolize or damage the lobby area of any tenant other than itself. Furthermore each tenant recognizes that these lobby areas
may become the subject of special rules that are unequal. (For example, a lobby near the entrance may be used too often and thus
disrupt those customers. In this case there may be a rule that other tenant’s employees not gather there.) The entrance
lobbies into tenant spaces will be maintained as common areas, with the cost included in Operating Expenses for the Project.

 

5.       The
sidewalks, entrances, passages, corridors, halls, elevators and stairways in the Building shall not be obstructed by Tenant or
used for any purposes other than those for which they were intended as ingress and egress. No windows, floors or skylights that
reflect or admit light into the Building shall be covered or obstructed by Tenant. Toilets, wash basins and sinks shall not be
used for any purpose other than those for which they were constructed, and no sweeping, rubbish or other obstructing or improper
substances shall be thrown therein. Any damage resulting to toilets, wash basins and sinks, or to heating or cooling apparatus,
from misuse by Tenant or its employees, shall be borne by Tenant.

    28

     

    

6.       Landlord
will furnish keys or access cards for the Premises and the Building to Tenant at no charge, as provided in Exhibit G. Landlord
may make a reasonable charge for any additional keys or access cards furnished. No additional lock, latch or bolt of any kind
shall be placed upon any door, nor shall any changes be made in existing locks, without written consent of Landlord, and Tenant
shall furnish Landlord with a key for any such lock. At the termination of the Lease, Tenant shall return to Landlord all keys
and access cards furnished to Tenant by Landlord, or otherwise obtained by Tenant, and in the event of loss of any keys or access
cards so furnished, Tenant shall pay Landlord for the cost of the missing items.

 

7.       Landlord
shall have the right to prescribe the weight, position and manner of installation of heavy items such as safes, machines and other
equipment brought into the Building. No safes, furniture, boxes, large parcels or other kind of freight shall be taken to or from
the Premises or allowed in any elevator, hall or corridor except at times allowed by Landlord. Tenant shall make prior arrangements
with Landlord for use of freight elevator, if any, for the purpose of transporting these items, and the items may be taken in
or out of the Building only during hours designated by Landlord. The persons employed to move the items must be approved by Landlord.
No hand trucks, except those equipped with rubber tires and side guards, shall be permitted in the Building. In no event shall
any weight be placed upon any floor by Tenant that would exceed the design conditions of the floor at that location.

 

8.       Tenant
shall not cause or permit any gases, liquids or odors to be produced upon or escape from the Premises, and no flammable, combustible
or explosive fluid, chemical, substance or item (including, without limitation, natural Christmas trees) shall be brought into
the Building.

 

9.       Every
person, including Tenant, its employees and visitors, entering and leaving the Building may be questioned by a watchman as to
that person’s business therein and may be required to sign his or her name on a faun provided for that purpose. Landlord
may also implement a card access security system to control access. Landlord shall not be liable for excluding any person from
the Building or for admission of any person to the Building at any time, or for damages or loss for theft resulting therefrom
to any person, including Tenant.

 

10.       Cleaning
service will not be furnished on nights when rooms are occupied after 6:30 p.m., unless, by agreement in writing, service is extended

and no outside wiring persons shall be allowed to do work of this kind without the written permission of Landlord. Under no circumstances

in the building.

 

19.       Landlord
may waive any one or more of these Rules and Regulations for the benefit of any particular lessee, but no waiver by Landlord shall
be construed as a waiver of the Rules and Regulations in favor of any other lessee, nor prevent Landlord from thereafter enforcing
any Rules and Regulations against any or all of the other lessees of the Building.

26.       Any
use by Tenant of the override system for after-hours heating or air conditioning shall result in charges to Tenant as provided
in Exhibit E, and Tenant agrees not to use the override system without properly logging in under the override system.

 

27.       Showers
will be wiped clean with user’s towel after each use. All soap and washing products will be removed by each user. (Remember,
you want it to be nice when you go in there again).

 

Sustainability
Rules:

 

Tenant
recognizes that the Building has been constructed in a manner to respect the environment and preserve it. Measures have been incorporated
into the design and construction that will minimize the carbon footprint of the building and its occupants, but certain responsibilities
rest with the users. Accordingly these rules are designed to maximize the effectiveness of the “green measures” in
the building.

 

		1.	All
                                         toilets are “dual flush,” providing flushing options depending on the amount
                                         of soil in the bowl. They are intended to clear the bowl by pressing “1”
                                         if you have done “#1” and “2” if you have done “#2”.
                                         Tenants shall use the buttons according to these expectations. However, it may become
                                         obvious to a user that his or her particular requirements involve a use of the “2”
                                         button at all times. In this case multiple presses of “1” actually waste
                                         water, and that person is thus instructed to use “2” for all functions.

 

		2.	Such
                                         toilets also occasionally fail to clear. Out of respect for your fellow tenants, please
                                         be sure the bowl clears after your use.

 

		3.	The
                                         lights and HVAC for the building are available during Building Operating Hours.

 

		a.	The
                                         lights dim for daylight contribution. Your windows are specially designed to admit light
                                         and not heat. Do not block the light from your windows unless necessary. A horizontal
                                         shelf inside the window will block glare but still bounce light to other users.

    31

     

    

		b.	Any
                                         task lighting proposed to be installed must be energy efficient and approved in advance
                                         by Landlord.

 

		c.	All
                                         lights are to be turned off when the space is not in use.

 

		d.	Thermostats
                                         should not be adjusted for absence or “set back” because the entire building
                                         envelope is balanced and requires contributions from various units at various times.

 

		e.	After
                                         hours Tenant may call for additional lights and HVAC by pressing an override button.
                                         This will activate the lights and HVAC in this area only for a set period of time. Tenant
                                         shall be responsible for charges in accordance with Exhibit E.

 

		f.	Computers
                                         will be Energy Star compliant or better and desktop computers will sleep or be powered
                                         down after Building Operating Hours if not being used.

 

		4.	Tenant
                                         will segregate its waste into recycling containers as appropriate.

 

		5.	In
                                         all areas, Tenant will require its employees to clean up after themselves and their guests.
                                         All evidence of food consumption will be removed and cleaned, including the washing of
                                         any non-disposable items used.

B.       The
initial term of the Lease expired on December 31, 2020. By mutual agreement, the parties agreed to extend the term for four months
through April 30, 2021 with a monthly Base Rent of $9,250. Landlord further agreed to give Tenant two (2) renewal options of four
(4) months each (the “Renewal Option(s)”) at the same rental rate, provided Tenant prepays rent for each four-month
option at the time of exercise and is not otherwise in default under the Lease.

 

C.       Tenant
now desires to exercise the first Renewal Option to extend the term of the Lease through August 31, 2021 as further set forth
below.

 

AGREEMENT:

In order to exercise the second Renewal Option, the parties agree that Tenant shall give Landlord notice of its election to extend
the Lease no later than August 1, 2021. Upon such election, Tenant shall have until September 1, 2021 to pay Landlord $37,000
(total Base Rent for the second four-month renewal option period).

 

3.       Acknowledgement
of Compliance. Tenant acknowledges that there are no outstanding and unsatisfied obligations of Landlord under the Lease
as of the execution of this First Amendment.

    1

If Tenant discloses any of the material terms and/or provisions of this First Amendment to any person or entity not a party to
this Lease, except Tenant’s employees, principals, shareholders, lenders, attorney, accountant, or other advisor, or as
ordered by a court of law, then Tenant shall be liable for all damage or injury to Landlord resulting from Tenant’s failure
to keep all such information confidential and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any damage, loss or injury
occasioned thereby.

of the party hereto for which such signatory is acting. This First Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts bearing
the original signatures of one or more of the parties hereto, each of which shall constitute an original, and all of which, when
taken together, shall evidence one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this First
Amendment by fax transmission or e-mail transmission (e.g. “pdf’ or “tif’) shall be effective as delivery
of a manually executed counterpart of this First Amendment.

 

8.       No
Brokers. Landlord and Tenant represent and warrant that there are no commissions due to any real estate brokerage company
as a result of either party’s actions or agreements in connection with this First Amendment or the Renewal Terms contemplated
under the Lease. Each party hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any claims, loss, liability,

SECOND
AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT

 

THIS
SECOND AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT (this “Second Amendment”) is entered into as of the 28th day of June, 2021
(the “Second Amendment Effective Date”), by and between Innovation Center, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability
company (“Landlord”) and Adamas One Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Tenant”).

 

RECITALS:

 

A.       Landlord
and Tenant are parties to that certain Lease Agreement dated January 1, 2020 (as amended, the “Lease”),
with respect to certain leased premises consisting of approximately 6,475 rentable square feet designated as Suites 110 and B18
(the “Existing Premises”) in the building located at 411 University Ridge, Greenville, South Carolina 29601
(the “Building”).

 

B.       The
current term of the Lease expires on August 31, 2021.

 

C.       Landlord
and Tenant now desire to extend the term of the Lease by two (2) years on such terms and conditions as further set forth below.

 

AGREEMENT:

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, in and for the consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows:

 

1.       Capitalized
Terms; Recitals. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall retain their defined meanings as stated in the
Lease. The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein by reference.

 

2.       Lease
Term Extension. Upon the mutual execution of this Second Amendment and Landlord’s receipt of the Security Deposit
(as defined in Section 4 below), the Lease Term shall be extended for a period of two (2) years beginning September 1, 2021
(the “Extended Term Commencement Date”) and expiring August 31, 2023 (such two-year extension period is referred
to herein as the “Extended Term”). Such extension is expressly contingent on Landlord’s receipt of the
Security Deposit. The parties agree that the Extended Term replaces any and all remaining Renewal Options.

 

3.       Extended
Term Base Rent. During the first four (4) months of the Extended Term, the monthly Base Rent owed by Tenant shall remain
$9,250. Commencing on January 1, 2022 and continuing through the remainder of the Extended Term, the monthly Base Rent owed
by Tenant shall be $9,500. Nothing in this Second Amendment shall be deemed to modify Tenant’s Base Rent obligations prior
to the Extended Term Commencement Date.

    1

     

    

4.       Draft
Authorization. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to draft or deduct Tenant’s Rent from Tenant’s bank account
on the fourth day of each calendar month. On or before the date Tenant executes and delivers this Second Amendment to Landlord,
Tenant shall complete and sign the authorization form attached hereto as Exhibit A that reflects this authorization
and identifies the bank account to be drafted, and Tenant will also provide to Landlord an appropriate voided item for the type
of account to be drafted. Tenant will maintain the necessary funds in the account to pay the draft each month and will not take
any steps to interfere with the drafting of Rent from the account by Landlord. Tenant will not close the account without providing
to Landlord, at least thirty (30) days prior to the account being closed, a new authorization form and voided instrument for a
replacement account. If the fourth day of the month is a Saturday, Sunday or full bank holiday, Tenant’s account will be
drafted on the last business day immediately prior to the fourth day of the month, unless the first business day after the fourth
is closer in time to the fourth, in which case the account will be drafted on the first business day after the fourth. For example:
If the fourth day of the month is a Saturday, Tenant’s account will normally be drafted on the previous Friday; and if the
fourth day is a Sunday, Tenant’s account will normally be drafted on the following Monday. If the fourth day of the month
falls during a three-day holiday weekend, the account will be drafted on the last business day before the holiday weekend unless
the fourth falls on the last non-business day of the weekend. For purposes of this provision, business days will include Monday
through Friday, exclusive of full bank holidays. If there are not sufficient funds in the account to pay the draft, Tenant shall
incur a late fee of $250 due and payable to Landlord and an event of default shall have occurred under the Lease. Upon the first
such occasion when there are insufficient funds, Landlord will notify Tenant by email of same and resubmit the draft of Tenant’s
account no sooner than forty-eight (48) hours after the initial attempted draft. If for any reason the above procedure for drafting
Tenant’s account should not be in place when payment of Rent is due, Tenant will pay the Rent to Landlord at Landlord’s
address as provided herein (or any other address that may be designated by Landlord from time to time) monthly in advance. In
that event, if Tenant fails to pay any installment of Rent or any other charge or assessment against Tenant within five (5) days
after written notice of non-payment, an event of default will have occurred, and Landlord may exercise any remedies provided in
this Lease. Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted to conflict with or otherwise limit Tenant’s authorization to
draft or deduct Rent from Tenant’s account as set forth in prior paragraphs of this Section unless Landlord has specifically
waived that provision in writing.

 

5.       Security
Deposit. As additional security for the faithful performance by Tenant throughout the Lease Term, and any extensions or
renewals thereof (including the Extended Term), of all the terms and conditions of the Lease on the part of Tenant to be performed,
Tenant shall deposit with Landlord $9,250 (the “Security Deposit”) on the date Tenant executes and delivers
this Second Amendment to Landlord. The Security Deposit shall be returned to Tenant, without interest, within twenty (20) days
after the day set for the expiration of the Lease Term, or any extension or renewal thereof (including the Extended Term), provided
Tenant has fully and faithfully observed and performed all of the terms, covenants, agreements, warranties and conditions hereof
on its part to be observed and performed. Landlord shall have the right to apply all or any part of the Security Deposit toward
the cure of any default of Tenant. If all or any part of the Security Deposit is so applied by Landlord, then Tenant shall immediately
pay to Landlord an amount sufficient to return the Security Deposit to the balance on deposit with Landlord prior to said application.
Neither Landlord nor its agents shall be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from their general accounts, it being
agreed that the Security Deposit may be commingled with other funds of Landlord or of its agents. It is further agreed and acknowledged
by Tenant that Landlord or its agents shall have the right to deposit the Security Deposit in an interest-bearing account, and
all interest accrued on the Security Deposit shall belong to Landlord and will be retained by Landlord as its property.

    2

     

    

6.       Acknowledgement
of Compliance. Tenant acknowledges that there are no outstanding and unsatisfied obligations of Landlord under the Lease
as of the execution of this Second Amendment.

 

7.       Confidentiality.
It is understood and agreed that the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment between Landlord and Tenant shall remain confidential.
If Tenant discloses any of the material terms and/or provisions of this Second Amendment to any person or entity not a party to
this Lease, except Tenant’s employees, principals, shareholders, lenders, attorney, accountant, or other advisor, or as
ordered by a court of law, then Tenant shall be liable for all damage or injury to Landlord resulting from Tenant’s failure
to keep all such information confidential and Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any damage, loss or injury
occasioned thereby.

 

8.       Binding
Effect. The terms and conditions of the Lease, and this Second Amendment shall bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord
and Tenant and their permitted successors, transferees, and assigns.

 

9.       No
Other Modifications. Except as herein expressly modified, all other terms and conditions of the Lease shall remain in
full force and effect. Should a conflict arise between the terms of this Second Amendment and those of the Lease, the terms of
this Second Amendment shall control.

 

10.       Authority/Counterparts.
Each signatory to this Second Amendment represents hereby that he or she has the authority to execute and deliver the same on
behalf of the party hereto for which such signatory is acting. This Second Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts
bearing the original signatures of one or more of the parties hereto, each of which shall constitute an original, and all of which,
when taken together, shall evidence one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Second Amendment by fax transmission or e-mail transmission (e.g. “pdf’ or “tif’) shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Second Amendment.

 

11.       No
Brokers. Landlord and Tenant represent and warrant that there are no commissions due to any real estate brokerage company
as a result of either party’s actions or agreements in connection with this Second Amendment or the Renewal Terms contemplated
under the Lease. Each party hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against any claims, loss, liability,
damages, judgment, fees, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs) suffered or incurred by
the other party as a result of a breach by Landlord or Tenant of the representation and warranty contained in the immediately
preceding sentence or as a result of Landlord or Tenant’s failure to pay commissions, fees or compensation due to any broker
who represented Landlord or Tenant, whether or not disclosed.
