Subtenant shall repair and maintain all fixtures, equipment and appurtenances located in or serving the Subleased Premises, with the exception of any Building Systems, as provided for in the Prime Lease. Sublandlord shall have no liability whatsoever for any failure, inadequacy or defect in the character or supply of any such utility or service, or in the event that Prime Landlord fails to furnish any such services or to perform any such obligations during the Term, unless the foregoing results from, or is attributable to, a Default by Sublandlord under the Prime Lease where no Default by Subtenant has occurred under this Sublease.

6.    Utility Costs. Subtenant shall be responsible for the cost of all utility services supplying the Subleased Premises during the Term, including, but not limited to, water, sewer, standby water for sprinkler, gas, telephone and all other utilities and other communication services as provided for in the Prime Lease.

(A)    Subtenant shall have no right to perform any alterations nor improvements (“Alteration(s)”) to the Subleased Premises, except with the prior written consent of Prime Landlord and Sublandlord, provided, however that the granting of such consent by the Prime Landlord shall also constitute the granting of Sublandlord’s consent hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant may perform Non-Material Alterations (as hereinafter defined) without Sublandlord’s consent but subject to Prime Landlord’s prior consent (to the extent such consent is required in the Prime Lease), provided Subtenant gives both Prime Landlord and Sublandlord at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice of the performance of such Non-Material Alterations.

(ii) approach Prime Landlord directly with respect to requesting approval(s) for any proposed contractor(s), subcontractor(s), and/or engineer(s). Subtenant shall not proceed with any Alteration (including Non-Material Alterations) unless and until Prime Landlord and Sublandlord approves Subtenant’s plans and specifications therefor in writing. Subtenant shall be responsible for all of Prime Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses for any architect, engineer, or other third-party consultant employed by Prime Landlord to review Subtenant’s plans and specifications for any Alteration, and to inspect any Alteration. Sublandlord will impose no review, management, supervisory, coordination, or similar fee(s) with respect to any Alterations.

Sublandlord shall have no right or option to require Subtenant to restore and/or remove any Alteration(s) unless Prime Landlord is requiring the same from Sublandlord under the Prime Lease.

(F)    Notwithstanding any provision of this Sublease to the contrary (i) Sublandlord and Prime Landlord have approved, in concept only and subject to Subtenant’s discharge of its obligations as set forth in Section 4.02 of the Prime Lease, this Sublease and the Prime Landlord Consent, the Alterations depicted in Exhibit B, annexed hereto and made a part hereof (the “Subtenant’s Buildout”), and (ii) to the extent Prime Landlord agrees in the Prime Landlord Consent, the provisions of Section 4.02(d) of the Prime Lease shall not apply to Subtenant’s Buildout (and if Prime Landlord declines to address the foregoing in the Prime Landlord Consent, Sublandlord agrees to submit a separate request in connection therewith).

9.    Subtenant’s Termination Right. Subtenant shall have the one-time option (the “Subtenant’s Termination Option”) to terminate this Sublease, effective as of the last day of the sixtieth (60th) full calendar month following the Rent Commencement Date (the “Sublease Termination Date”), subject to the following conditions: (i) Subtenant shall provide written notice to Sublandlord (the “Subtenant Termination Notice”) at least nine (9) months and no more than twelve (12) months in advance of the Sublease Termination Date, time being of the essence, (ii) Subtenant pays to Sublandlord, together with the giving of the Subtenant Termination Notice, the sum of Three Million Seven Hundred Thirty-Eight Thousand Three Hundred Ninety-Three and 00/100 Dollars ($3,738,393.00) (the “Subtenant Termination

Payment”), which amount represents the sum of six (6) months of Fixed Rent at the Rental Rate then in effect (i.e., $81/RSF), and (iii) Subtenant not being in Default under this Sublease at the time of exercise or on the effective date of such termination (provided, however, that Tenant shall have the option of curing, in full, any monetary Default hereunder so as to preserve the exercise of Subtenant’s Termination Option). If (i) Subtenant fails to timely deliver the Subtenant Termination Notice, or (ii) Subtenant timely delivers the Subtenant Termination Notice but fails to simultaneously pay the Subtenant Termination Payment, then, in either event, Subtenant’s exercise of the Subtenant’s Termination Option shall be null and void, the Sublease shall remain in full force and effect after the Sublease Termination Date (as if the Subtenant Termination Notice had never been given) and Subtenant shall have no further termination rights under this Section 9. If Subtenant satisfies all the conditions under this Section 9, then (i) this Sublease shall terminate as if the Sublease Termination Date were the scheduled expiration date of the Term hereof, (ii) Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord vacant possession of the Subleased Premises subject to, and in accordance with, this Sublease (including all applicable provisions of the Prime Lease incorporated herein) as if the Sublease Termination Date were the scheduled expiration date of the Term, and (iii) Rent shall be justly apportioned and paid to the appropriate party.

Any notice given personally or by documented overnight delivery service is effective upon receipt. Any notice given by registered mail is effective upon receipt, to the extent such receipt is confirmed by return receipt. Any notice which is refused, unclaimed or undeliverable because of an act or omission of the party to be notified, if such notice was correctly addressed to the party to be notified, shall be deemed communicated as of the first date that said notice was refused, unclaimed or deemed undeliverable by the postal authorities, or overnight delivery service.

12.    Assignments; Sublettings.    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Prime Lease or of this Sublease to the contrary, Subtenant shall have no right to assign or sublet all orany part of the Subleased Premises, except with the prior written consent of Prime Landlord and Sublandlord. Any transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, of the interest of Subtenant in this Sublease (in whole or in part) or any ownership interests of Subtenant (whether stock, partnership or membership interest or otherwise) shall be deemed an assignment of this Sublease within the meaning of this Section. At any time within thirty (30) days after Sublandlord’s receipt of any proposed assignment or sublease, Sublandlord may by written notice to Subtenant elect to terminate this Sublease as to the portion of the Subleased Premises so proposed to be subleased or assigned (which may include all of the Subleased Premises) (“Sublandlord’s Termination Notice”), with a proportionate abatement in the Rent payable hereunder, provided, however that Subtenant shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to Sublandlord given within five (5) business days of Subtenant’s receipt of Sublandlord’s Termination Notice, of withdrawing Subtenant’s request for consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, in which case this Sublease shall continue in full force and effect as though Subtenant had never submitted such request for consent. If Sublandlord consents to a transfer, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, as Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Profit (as hereinafter defined). As used herein, “Transfer Profit” shall mean (i) for a lease assignment, all consideration paid or payable therefor less Subtenant’s reasonable costs incurred in connection with such assignment, including, but not limited to, broker’s commissions and attorneys’ fees, and (ii) for a sublease, all rent, additional rent or other consideration paid by such transferee in excess of the total of (x) Rent payable by Tenant under this Sublease (on a monthly basis during the Term, and on a per rentable square foot basis, if less than all of the Premises is transferred), and (y) Subtenant’s reasonable costs incurred in connection with such assignment, including, but not limited to, broker’s commissions, attorneys’ fees, rent abatements, improvement allowances and the reasonable expense of any sublandlord’s work or improvements. Subtenant shall pay such Transfer Profit to Sublandlord on a monthly basis within ten (10) days after receipt thereof, without affecting or reducing any other obligations of Subtenant hereunder. Subtenant shall send each payment with a detailed statement. Sublandlord shall have the right to inspect Subtenant’s books and records to verify the accuracy of Subtenant’s statement.

(A)    Subtenant shall surrender the Subleased Premises in as good, and substantially the same, condition in which they were delivered to Subtenant, ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty excepted, and otherwise in the condition required under the Prime Lease.

(B)    Subtenant shall have no right to hold over at the Subleased Premises beyond the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Sublease. If Subtenant remains in possession after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term such occupancy shall be as a tenant at sufferance and Subtenant shall pay as liquidated damages (and not as rent) (i) an amount equal to

(A) for the first thirty (30) days of such holdover, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Fixed Rent in effect at the time of the expiration or termination of this Sublease, and (B) thereafter, two hundred percent (200%) of the Fixed Rent in effect at the time of the expiration or termination of this Sublease, plus Additional Rent, prorated on a daily basis for each such day of continued occupancy, and (ii) all amounts payable by Sublandlord to Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease as a result of such holdover, including consequential damages, as more particularly set forth in Section 6.10 of the Prime Lease, but only to the extent that Sublandlord is liable for, and

actually remits payment to Prime Landlord on account of, such consequential damages pursuant to Section 6.10 of the Prime Lease. Subtenant hereby agrees to indemnify Sublandlord against and hold Sublandlord harmless from all costs and damages incurred (including reasonable attorney’s fees) as a result of such holdover, including but not limited to all amounts paid by Sublandlord to Prime Landlord pursuant to the Prime Lease as a result of such continued occupancy by Subtenant. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit Sublandlord's rights to evict Subtenant, or any other rights or remedies legally available to Sublandlord. No receipt of money by Sublandlord from Subtenant after expiration or termination of this Sublease shall reinstate or extend this Sublease without the express written consent of Sublandlord.

14.    Late Payment. It is agreed that the Rent is due and payable in equal monthly installments in advance in accordance with terms set forth in Section 4. The parties further agree that late payment by Subtenant to Sublandlord of Rent will cause Sublandlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Sublease, the amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Therefore, in the event that any monthly installment of Rent required to be made by the Subtenant under this Sublease or any other payment due under this Sublease shall be overdue any such late payments shall be subject to a five percent (5%) late administrative fee and twelve percent (12%) interest (the “Default Rate”) for the purpose of defraying the expenses incurred in handling delinquent payments. Nothing contained in this Section or elsewhere in this Sublease shall prevent Sublandlord from commencing legal proceedings against Subtenant for the non- payment of Rent if same is not paid timely.

15.    Signage: Subject to Prime Landlord’s prior written approval, Subtenant shall be permitted to install identifying signage in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.19 of the Prime Lease (including, without limitation, as to size, content, design, color and materials). Notwithstanding any provision of this Sublease to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Prime Lease, all signage shall be at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense.

(A)    Subtenant hereby acknowledges that Sublandlord has the one-time option to terminate the Prime Lease in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 1.07 of the Prime Lease (the “Prime Lease Termination Option”). Subtenant hereby further acknowledges and agrees that Sublandlord shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to elect to exercise the Prime Lease Termination Option, provided, however that Sublandlord shall not exercise the Prime Lease Termination Option without Subtenant’s prior written consent unless Subtenant is in Default hereunder. In addition to Sublandlord’s unilateral right to exercise the Prime Lease Termination Option, Subtenant may elect to have Sublandlord exercise the Prime Lease Termination Option subject to the following conditions: (i) Subtenant provides Sublandlord with written notice of such election at least fifteen (15) months prior to the Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.07 of the Prime Lease, i.e., January 30, 2031), and (ii) simultaneously with Subtenant’s election notice, Subtenant pays Sublandlord the Termination Payment owed to Prime Landlord (i.e. $9,777,295.20).

(A)    Sublandlord shall not do or cause to be done or suffer or permit to be done any default or breach under the Prime Lease which causes the Prime Lease or the rights of Sublandlord as tenant thereunder to be terminated (other than (i) on account of a parallel default

by Subtenant under this Sublease, or (ii) pursuant to termination rights expressly granted to Sublandlord).
