For the purposes of this Amendment, the term “Lease” shall mean the Existing Building Lease as modified by this Amendment.
B.The Existing Building Lease became effective and the Commencement Date occurred upon Landlord’s acquisition of the Property on December 18, 2020.
C.As a result of Tenant’s exercise of the Parking Deck Option under Section 33.03 of the Existing Building Lease, Landlord and Tenant have agreed to amend the Existing Building Lease on the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

First Amendment to Office Lease        Page 1


c.Furthermore, effective as of the Parking Deck Completion Date, Article 29 of the Existing Building Lease captioned “Parking” is hereby amended and restated as follows:
Tenant shall have the right of non-exclusive use, in common with others, of Tenant’s Parking Share of the outdoor ground level automobile parking areas on the Property. Tenant shall have the right of exclusive use of the Parking Deck except only as provided in the next two (2) grammatical paragraphs. Vehicles may only be parked in paved, striped parking spaces and any vehicle parked in any other location on the Property may be towed, at the expense of the vehicle owner, without notice. All parking spaces associated with the Premises are intended for use by passenger vehicles, except for intermittent deliveries by commercial vehicles, for which parking spaces also shall be used. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated above, Landlord reserves (a) the right to reasonably designate specific uncovered parking spaces and up to two (2) spaces within the Parking Deck for Landlord’s performance of its obligations under the Lease, commercial loading space, and for property management services to the Property and (b) the right to use of the parking facilities other than the Parking Deck for construction parking as reasonably necessary or required by applicable law in connection with construction of the Parking Deck, of the building contemplated by the New Building Lease, and of Landlord Development. For the purposes of this Article 29, the term “Tenant’s Parking Share” means the quotient, expressed as a percentage, of (x) the rentable square footage of the Premises divided by (y) the sum of (i) the rentable square footage of the Building and (ii) to the extent applicable, the rentable square footage of the building(s) constructed pursuant to the New Building Lease or in connection with Landlord Development. Initially, Tenant’s Parking Share is 100%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be entitled to use of the Parking Deck prior to the Parking Deck Completion Date.
If the New Building Lease is executed, this Lease shall be amended to provide that the Parking Deck may be used by Tenant pursuant to this Lease and pursuant to the New Building Lease and to the extent any third party leases a portion of the New Building, such third party shall have the right to use of the Parking Deck. In such event, the parties shall reduce the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment under this Lease and allocate such portion of the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment to the New Building Lease.
If there shall be a reduction to (i) the Premises or (ii) following execution of the New Building Lease, the premises subject to the New Building Lease, then in each such case, (A) the amount of parking spaces in the Parking Deck that are exclusive to Tenant shall be reduced proportionate to the reduction in the applicable premises, at a rate of 4 spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet in the reduced area (and a corresponding number of parking cards or entry fobs shall be given by Tenant to the applicable landlord for use by itself or by a tenant of such building other than Tenant), and (B) Tenant will be entitled to reserve, and to mark with appropriate signage or paint, up to ten (10) surface parking spaces, including one (1) handicap space, adjacent to whatever building(s) is(are) subject to the reduction in premises.
First Amendment to Office Lease        Page 2


4.Basic Rent. Effective upon the Parking Deck Completion Date, the applicable rate of Basic Rent per rentable square foot of the Premises shall be increased by the result of the following formula: (Parking Deck Project Costs x 7.30%)/89,975 rentable square feet (the “Parking Deck Rent Adjustment”). Although the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment is expected to occur prior to escalation of Basic Rent on January 1, 2022, the parties agree that the January 1, 2022 escalation shall not apply to the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment (but shall apply to the balance of Basic Rent), but then, Basic Rent, inclusive of the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment, shall escalate by 2.25% on January 1, 2023 and thereafter on January 1 of each year during the Term.
a.For the purposes of this Section 4, the term “Parking Deck Project Costs” means all documented out-of-pocket hard and soft costs incurred by Landlord (including without limitation any amounts reimbursed to Tenant or its agents for expenses incurred by Tenant or such Tenant agents) to design, approve and construct the Parking Deck Project, which shall be shared on an “open book” basis with Tenant throughout the Parking Deck Project. Parking Deck Project Costs shall include but are not necessarily limited to those hard and soft costs listed on Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and increases in Parking Deck Project Costs not provided for in or accommodated by the Approved Budget shall be subject to the terms of Exhibit A.
b.Tenant shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to review Landlord’s records related to the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s written notice computing Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment. If Tenant provides Landlord with written notice of what Tenant believes are errors in Landlord’s calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs or the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment during such thirty (30) day period, the parties shall meet within fourteen (14) days of such objection (the “Reconciliation Period”) by Tenant to reasonably reconcile the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment to their mutual satisfaction. If the parties are unable to resolve the discrepancy in the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs or the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment within the Reconciliation Period, Tenant shall have the right to refer the matter to a mutually acceptable independent certified public accountant with at least five (5) years of experience performing commercial real estate audits (the “Arbiter”), who shall work in good faith with Landlord and Tenant to resolve the discrepancy in the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and/or the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment and who shall not be compensated on a contingency basis; provided if Tenant shall not notify Landlord of Tenant’s intent to engage the Arbiter (the “Arbiter Notice”) within five (5) business days following the end of the Reconciliation Period, Landlord’s calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment, as adjusted by any agreements reached in writing between the parties during the Reconciliation Period, shall be deemed final and accepted by Tenant. Tenant shall deliver to the Arbiter Landlord’s notice of its calculation of the Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment and the Commencement Date, together with the reasonable supporting documentation of the costs associated with such Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment provided by Landlord, and the Arbiter shall deliver its calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment to Landlord and Tenant within twenty-one (21) days of its selection. The fees and costs of any such Arbiter shall be borne by Tenant. The decision of the Arbiter with respect to the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment shall be final and binding in all respects. Within thirty (30) days after resolution of the discrepancy in the calculation of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment, whether by agreement of the parties or a final decision of an Arbiter, Landlord shall pay or credit to Tenant, or Tenant shall pay to
First Amendment to Office Lease        Page 3


Landlord, as the case may be, all unpaid or overpaid amounts of Parking Deck Project Costs and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment that shall be owing.
5.Confirmation. Once the Parking Deck Completion Date and the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment are determined, and subject to review by the Arbiter if elected by Tenant pursuant to Section 4(c) above, Landlord and Tenant agree to execute a statement in the form reasonably provided by Landlord confirming the Parking Deck Completion Date, the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment, the revised schedule of Basic Rent (including the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment), and reasonably related factual matters regarding Lease within ten (10) days after either party’s request. The parties’ failure to execute a statement as required by this paragraph will not affect the validity or determination of the Parking Deck Completion Date or the Parking Deck Rent Adjustment.
6.Amendments.
a.Section 32.08 of the Lease is hereby amended by adding the following sentences thereto: “Notwithstanding the preceding terms of this Section, Landlord acknowledges and approves disclosure of the Lease by Tenant while Tenant is a “publicly traded” company subject to the reporting requirements of Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended), but only to the extent that (and only to the parties to whom) disclosure is required under such Act.”
b.Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the definition of Documented Development Fees and Costs set forth in Exhibit E to the Lease is amended by replacing the words “Parking Deck” set forth therein with the following words “the amendment to this Lease concerning the Parking Deck, as provided in Section 33.03(A).”
7.Brokerage. Tenant represents and warrants that it has not had dealings with any real estate broker, finder or other person, with respect to this Lease in any manner other than Trask Land Company, Inc. and Cameron Management Inc, as Landlord’s brokers, and Jones Lang LaSalle, as Tenant’s broker (collectively, the “Brokers”). Landlord shall pay such compensation as may be due to Brokers in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, a separate written agreement, but this paragraph creates no rights in favor of, and is not enforceable by, the Brokers. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any and all damages resulting from any claims that may be asserted against Landlord by any broker, finder or other person (including, without limitation, any substitute or replacement broker claiming to have been engaged by Tenant) other than the Brokers, claiming to have dealt with Tenant in connection with the negotiation and/or execution of this Amendment. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
8.Authority. Each of Landlord and Tenant represents and warrants to the other that the individual executing this Amendment on such party’s behalf is authorized to do so.
9.Miscellaneous. The recitals to this Amendment are incorporated into the body of this Amendment by reference. Except as modified by this Amendment, all of Landlord's and Tenant's other rights, obligations and covenants with respect to the Existing Building Lease shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the Lease. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts shall constitute one document. To facilitate execution of this Amendment, the parties hereto may execute and exchange, by telephone facsimile or electronic mail PDF, counterparts of the signature pages. Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts and attached to a single copy of this Amendment to physically form one document. In the event any term or provision of this Amendment is determined by appropriate judicial authority to

be illegal or otherwise invalid, such provision shall be given its nearest legal meaning or be construed or deleted as such authority determines, and the remainder of this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect.
