Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any liens, personal injury, property damage or other action, injury or claim (including reasonable attorneys fees or expenses incurred by Landlord) arising from the entry of Tenant, and/or Tenants consultants, representatives, agents, contractors or subcontractors onto the Project, the Building and the Premises, Tenant will repair all damage to the Project, the Building and/or the Premises resulting from Tenants early entry.
2.7 Renewal Option. Tenant may extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) consecutive period of five (5) years (Renewal Term) by providing Landlord written notice not later than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the then-current Term. The annual Base Rent during any such Renewal Term shall be calculated as an amount equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the Market Rental Rate, as hereinafter defined.
The Market Rental Rate, as used herein, shall mean the prevailing rental rate on a per-square- foot basis, then being obtained by landlords of first class office buildings in the southeast valley of the metropolitan Phoenix area. It is agreed by Tenant that Landlord, in determining the respective market rates for the Renewal Term, shall be entitled to consider the rental rate then being obtained by Landlord for comparable space in the Project. Landlord shall include a refurbishment allowance for the Renewal Term equal to There and 00/100 Dollars ($3 00) per square foot of Rentable Area in the Premises, which Tenant may use in connection with work necessary to refurbish and improve the Premises, The amount of the refurbishment allowance shall be factored into the determination of the Market Rental Rate and shall be payable to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the date the Renewal Term commences.
Within thirty (30) days following the date of receipt of Tenants election to extend the Term, Landlord shall provide Tenant with Landlords determination of Base Rent as calculated above. Tenant shall then have the right to cancel its election to extend the Term, by giving Landlord written notice of its intent to cancel, which notice must be given within ten (10) days following the date of notice from Landlord to Tenant of the Base Rent. If Tenant shall fail to give notice of cancellation of its election to extend within said ten (10) day period, then this Lease shall terminate as of the termination date of the
4
Term. If Landlord shall fail to give Tenant notice of the Base Rent as provided above, then the Base Rent shall be the Base Rent as of the last year of the Term multiplied by two and three-quarters percent (2.75%) with a similar increase for each year of the Renewal Term, and Tenant shall not have any right to cancel its option to extend.
Notwithstanding the aforementioned calculations, in no event shall the annual Base Rent for any Renewal Term be less than the annual Base Rent during the last year of the immediately previous Term.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default by Tenant has occurred and is continuing upon the date of the notice of Tenants exercise of the Renewal Term or at the time of the commencement of the Renewal Term, Landlord shall have the right to cancel any option to extend this Lease including, but not limited to, the right to revoke an option exercised by Tenant. Landlord shall send written notice to Tenant of such cancellation, and such option to extend shall be of no further force or effect.

Tenants Share shall be a fraction whose numerator is (a) the Rentable Area in the First Phase Area, or (b) the Rentable Area in the entire Premises upon the addition of the Second Phase Area, and whose denominator is the Rentable Area in the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, commencing with Tenants Share of Operating Costs due in connection with calendar year 2014, in no event shall Tenants obligation for Tenants Share of Operating Costs in any calendar year thereafter be increased by more than six percent (6%) per calendar year, on a cumulative basis, provided, however, the six percent (6%) cap shall not apply to Taxes, insurance, utilities, or other non-controllable costs.

4.4 - Partial Year Proration. During the last year of the Term, Tenants responsibility for Tenants Share of Operating Costs shall be adjusted in the proportion that the number of days of that calendar year during which the Lease is in effect bears to 365. Tenants obligations under this Article 4 for the payment of Tenants Share of Operating Costs during the Term, including the payment of any deficiency following receipt of the annual statement under Section 4.6, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
4.5 - Variable Cost Adjustment. If the mean level of occupancy of the Building during a calendar year is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area, the Operating Costs shall be adjusted to reflect the fact that some costs, such as air conditioning and janitorial services, vary with level of occupancy while other costs, such as real estate taxes, may not. In order to allocate those variable costs to occupied space while allocating non-variable costs to occupied and unoccupied space alike, Landlord shall determine what the total Operating Costs would have been had the Building been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during the entire calendar year on the average, and that adjusted total shall be the figure
7
employed in the estimates and statements described in Section 4.6. If Landlord, by special arrangement with a tenant, excludes that tenant from receipt of services otherwise generally available to tenants, then Operating Costs shall be deemed to include what such services would have cost had they been provided to that tenant.

As soon as reasonably practicable prior to or near the commencement of each calendar year during the Term, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant an estimate of Operating Costs for the ensuing calendar year and Tenant shall pay, as Rent hereunder together with each installment of Base Rent, one-twelfth (1/12th) of the amount by which the estimated annual Operating Costs exceed the Base Year Costs. As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each calendar year during the Term Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of the actual Operating Costs for the previous calendar year, and within thirty (30) days following the date of such notice Tenant shall pay to Landlord, or Landlord shall pay to Tenant, as the case may be, the difference between such actual and estimated Operating Costs paid by Tenant. Operating Costs for the year in which this Lease terminates shall be prorated based upon the termination date of the Term.
4.7 - Certification and Inspection of Records. The annual statement of actual Operating Costs shall be certified to be correct by Landlord Landlord shall maintain accurate books and records with respect to all Operating Costs for a period of not less than one (1) year. Tenant shall have the right during Landlords normal business hours, at Landlord business offices, and upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord, to inspect Landlords records of Operating Costs on or before the first (1st) anniversary of Tenants receipt of the statement of the actual Operating Costs for the previous calendar year, but no later. No later than thirty (30) days after Landlord makes such records available for review, Tenant shall send Landlord notice specifying any exceptions that Tenant takes to matters included in such annual statement, Tenants detailed reasons for each exception that support a conclusion that such exception properly identifies an error in such annual statement, and a complete copy of the review report. If Tenant takes timely exception as provided herein, Landlord may seek certification from an independent certified public accountant or financial consultant (who shall be subject to Tenants reasonable approval) as to the proper amount of Operating Costs or the items as to which Tenant has taken exception. In such case, (i) such certification shall be considered final and binding on both parties (except as to additional amounts not then known or omitted by error), and (ii) Tenant shall pay Landlord for the cost of such certification, unless it shows that Operating Costs were overstated by a net amount of five percent (5%) or more.

If Tenant fails to deliver the Letter of Credit to Landlord within five (5) business days after the Effective Date, Landlord may, at any time, whether or not possession has been delivered to Tenant, deem such failure to be an Event of Default and Landlord may avail itself of the remedies provided for herein.

not be considered an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Landlords damage upon an Event of Default (as defined in Section 18) by Tenant. Upon occurrence of any Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy, use the security deposit to the extent necessary to apply to Rent or any damage, injury, expense or liability caused to Landlord by the Event of Default of Tenant. The remaining balance of the security deposit, if any, will be returned to Tenant upon termination of this Lease unless an Event of Default by Tenant then exists.

C. | Owner has executed a Deed of Trust with Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (as amended, modified, renewed or restated, the Deed of Trust) dated as of June 3, 2008 and recorded on June 4, 2008 as Instrument No. 2008-0493363 in the real estate records of Maricopa County, Arizona, securing, among other things, an Amended and Restated Promissory Note Secured by Deed of Trust (as amended, modified, renewed or restated, the Note), dated as of February 26, 2010, in favor of Lender, which Note is payable with interest and upon the terms and conditions described therein (Loan). |

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration and to induce Lender to make the Loan, Owner and Lessee hereby agree for the benefit of Lender as follows:
SUBORDINATION. Owner and Lessee hereby agree that:
Prior Lien, The Deed of Trust securing the Note in favor of Lender, and any modifications, renewals or extensions thereof, shall unconditionally (except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein) be and at all times remain a lien on the Property prior and superior to the Lease, and to the extent the Lease predates the Deed of Trust, Lessee hereby subordinates the Lease to the Deed of Trust; and
Subordination. Lender would not approve the Lease without this agreement to subordinate.
AND FURTHER, Lessee individually declares, agrees and acknowledges for the benefit of Lender, that:

Lender, in making disbursements pursuant to the Note, the Deed of Trust or any loan agreements with respect to the Property, is under no obligation or duty to, nor has Lender represented that it will, see to the application of such proceeds by the person or persons to whom Lender disburses such proceeds, and any application or use of such proceeds for purposes other than those provided for in such agreement or agreements shall not defeat this agreement to subordinate in whole or in part: and
Waiver, Relinquishment and Subordination. Lessee intentionally and unconditionally (except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein) waives, relinquishes and subordinates all of Lessees right, title and interest in and to the Property to the lien of the Deed of Trust and understands that in reliance upon, and in consideration of. this waiver, relinquishment and subordination, specific loans and advances are being and will be made by Lender and, as part and parcel thereof, specific monetary and other obligations are being and will be entered into which would not be made or entered into but for said reliance upon this waiver, relinquishment and subordination.
