• TENANT'S COVENANTS The Tenant covenants with the Landlord:

• Commencement Date Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the date (the “Delivery Date”) that Landlord’s Market Ready Improvements described on EXHIBIT C attached hereto and the Tenant Improvements to be completed by Landlord pursuant to the Work Letter Agreement attached hereto as EXHIBIT D are substantially completed. For purposes of this Lease, Landlord’s Market Ready Improvements and the Tenant Improvements shall be deemed to be “substantially completed” when Landlord’s Market Ready Improvements and the Tenant Improvements have been completed in accordance with any plans and specifications therefor, subject only to the completion of any minor punch-list items, and the City of Sunnyvale has completed a final inspection of such work and issued a temporary certificate of occupancy or other written approvals permitting legal occupancy of the Premises. The term of this Lease (“Term”) shall be seventy-six (76) months commencing on the date (the “Commencement Date”) which is thirty (30) days from the Delivery Date. If the Delivery Date does not occur on or before May 1, 2018, for any reason other than (i) ArcTec’s failure to complete the Final Plans and Specifications (as such term is defined in the Work Letter attached as EXHIBIT D) and submit such Final Plans and Specifications (and any other documentation required by the City of Sunnyvale for the issuance of a building permit for the Tenant Improvements) to Landlord’s general contractor by January 8, 2018, (ii) the City requiring Landlord to stop construction due to its commencement of the Tenant Improvements before the permits therefor were issued or (iii) delays caused by the acts or omission of Tenant, as defined in Paragraph 3(c) below, then the date Tenant is otherwise obliged to commence payment of Rent shall be delayed by one (1) additional day for each day the Delivery Date is delayed beyond such date.

• Expansion Premises In addition to the Original Premises, commencing on the Expansion Premises Commencement Date (as defined below), Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the Expansion Premises.

• Additional Premises Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to expand the Premises to include an additional fifteen thousand four hundred ten (15,410) square feet of Rentable Area located on the first (1st) floor, as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Additional Premises”) on July 1, 2012 (the “Additional Premises Delivery Date”). In the event Landlord determines the Additional Premises will be ready for delivery to Tenant in the Required Condition on the Additional Premises Delivery Date, within ten (10) business days prior to the Additional Premises Delivery Date, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a written amendment to the Lease, which amendment shall provide, unless otherwise agreed in writing, (a) that the commencement date of the Additional Premises shall be the Additional Premises Delivery Date (the “Additional Premises Commencement Date”), (b) that, as of the Additional Premises Commencement Date, the Premises under the Lease shall be increased to include the Additional Premises for a total of sixty-one thousand four hundred forty-four (61,444) square feet of Rentable Area (together, the Premises and the Additional Premises shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Total Premises”), (c) the new Basic Annual Rent applicable to the Total Premises, which shall commence on the Additional Premises Commencement Date and shall be as further described in Section 4.2 of this Amendment, (d) Tenant’s new Pro Rata Share of Operating Expenses as of the Additional Premises Commencement Date, which Pro Rata Share shall equal one hundred percent (100%) of the Building and thirty-three and 51/100 percent (33.51%) of the Project and (e) that, in addition to the parking which Tenant is entitled to under the terms of the Lease with respect to the original Premises, Tenant, for so long as Tenant leases the Additional Premises, shall have a non-exclusive license to use the parking facilities serving the Building in common on an unreserved basis with other tenants of the Building and the Project at a ratio of 3.3 parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square feet of Additional Premises, which amounts to fifty-one (51) additional parking spaces, which number shall include three (3) additional Reserved Spaces. In the event the Additional Premises is not ready for delivery to Tenant in the Required Condition on the Additional Premises Delivery Date, then (x) this Amendment and the Lease shall not be void or voidable, (y) Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom and (z) the new Basic Annual Rent applicable to the Premises shall be as further described in Section 4.3 of this Amendment.

• Sublease Term The term of the Sublease (“Sublease Term”) commences on the later to occur of (1) Sublandlord’s receipt of Prime Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease, and (2) October 1, 2009 (“Sublease Commencement Date”); and expires on January 28, 2018 (“Sublease Expiration Date”; i.e., the day prior to the Termination Date pursuant to the Prime Lease). Sublandlord shall deliver the Subleased Premises “broom clean” and free of all of Sublandlord’s personal property (other than the F&F (defined in Section 2(f))) and debris, but otherwise in “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition on the Sublease Commencement Date; provided that Subtenant shall not be responsible for, or required to remedy, any violation of any applicable law, or any condition or state of facts, with respect to the Subleased Premises, the Building or the Land existing on or prior to the Sublease Commencement Date. Sublandlord is not required to perform any work to prepare the Subleased Premises for Subtenant’s intended use. If (i) for any reason Sublandlord has not received Prime Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease in form required by Section 15(i) below by the date which is sixty (60) days from the date hereof, or (ii) Prime Landlord elects to terminate the Prime Lease in respect of the Subleased Premises pursuant to Prime Landlord’s recapture right set forth in Section 16.5 of the Prime Lease, then in the case of (i), then Sublandlord and Subtenant each may elect at any time thereafter to terminate this Sublease by written notice to the other, whereupon the parties shall deem this Sublease to be null and void and of no effect (except for those provisions expressly stated herein to survive a termination), and in the case of (ii) the Sublease will be deemed terminated in accordance with Section 16.5 of the Prime Lease.

• Initial Lease Term The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease except for the provisions of this Lease relating to the payment of Rent. The term of this Lease (the “Lease Term”) shall be as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Summary, shall commence on the date (the “Lease Commencement Date”) that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date Tenant commences to conduct business in any portion of the Premises, and (ii) the of “Substantial Completion”, as that term is defined in this Article 2, of the Premises by Landlord, and shall terminate on the date determined in accordance with Section 3.3 of the Summary (the “Lease Expiration Date”) unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Lease, “Substantial Completion” of the Premises shall occur upon the completion of construction, as reasonably determined by Landlord, of the “Tenant Improvements,” as that term is defined in the Tenant Work Letter, in the Premises pursuant to the plans and drawings which are prepared and approved pursuant to the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy or legal equivalent, with the exception of any Punchlist Items (as defined below) and any Tenant fixtures, work-stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant or under the supervision of Contractor (as defined in Section 3 of the Tenant Work Letter). “Punchlist Items” shall mean only commercially reasonable punchlist items, the non-completion of which does not prevent the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy or legal equivalent or unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, and which punchlist items shall be corrected promptly by Landlord (within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of written notice thereof from Tenant) without unreasonable interference with Tenant’s use of or access to or from the Premises. It is anticipated that the Lease Commencement Date will occur within sixteen (16) weeks after mutual execution of this Lease (such date, the “Target Commencement Date”), but this Lease shall not be void, voidable or subject to termination, nor shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage, resulting from Landlord’s inability to deliver the Premises to Tenant by any particular date, except as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if the Lease Commencement Date does not occur within 60 days after the Target Commencement Date, other than due to Tenant Delay (as defined in the Tenant Work Letter) or Force Majeure, then Tenant, at its option, may terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord given at any time after the expiration of such 60-day period but before the Lease Commencement Date actually occurs. In the event of such termination by Tenant, the first month’s Base Rent, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses paid by Tenant and the Security Deposit shall be fully refunded to Tenant (subject to Landlord’s right to draw upon such Security Deposit as provided in Article 21 below) and neither party shall have any further obligations hereunder. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice in the form as set forth in Exhibit “C”, attached hereto, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which Tenant shall (absent manifest error) execute and return to Landlord within five (5) business days of receipt thereof.

• Tenant’s Space Plans Tenant shall deliver to Landlord and the TI Architect schematic drawings and outline specifications (the “TI Design Drawings”) detailing Tenant’s requirements for the Tenant Improvements within 5 business days of the date hereof. Not more than 2 days thereafter, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the written objections, questions or comments of Landlord and the TI Architect with regard to the TI Design Drawings. Tenant shall cause the TI Design Drawings to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said drawings to Landlord for approval within 2 days thereafter. Such process shall continue until Landlord has approved the TI Design Drawings.

• Landlord’s Work Landlord shall construct the base-building elements of the Building (the "Base Building Work"), the sitework on the Land, and the parking structure and surface parking areas on the Land, all in accordance with the Design Specifications attached hereto as Schedule I (collectively, "Landlord's Work"). All of Landlord's Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with plans and specifications ("Landlord's Plans") mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant's approval of Landlord's Plans shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Tenant shall not be entitled to condition its approval of Landlord's Plans upon the inclusion therein of any design specifications that are inconsistent with the Design Specifications attached hereto as Schedule I (including requiring a higher performance standard than any performance standard expressly set forth in Schedule I). Tenant shall respond to any request for approval of Landlord's Plans, or any portion or progress set thereof, or any modifications thereto, as promptly as reasonably possible and in any event within ten (10) business days in the case of the original complete set of Landlord's Plans and any structural modifications thereto and within two (2) business days in the case of any nonstructural modifications to Landlord's Plans, and Tenant's failure to respond within such time periods shall be referred to herein and in the Lease as a "Tenant Delay." In the event Tenant disapproves Landlord's Plans or any portion thereof or any modifications thereto, Tenant's notice of disapproval shall specify in detail the reasonable basis for such disapproval. Landlord shall promptly make such revisions to Landlord's Plans as may be necessary to address Tenant's reasonable objections, and shall resubmit Landlord's Plans to Tenant for Tenant's approval. Tenant shall review such revised plans as promptly as reasonably possible and notify Landlord whether Tenant approves or reasonably disapproves Landlord's Plans as modified. This process shall be repeated, if necessary, until Tenant's reasonable objections to Landlord's Plans have been addressed and Tenant has approved Landlord's Plans. After approval of Landlord's Plans, Tenant shall have the right to initiate changes to Landlord's Plans or Landlord's Work, subject to (i) Landlord's approval of any such proposed change, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) Landlord's and Tenant's mutual agreement concerning (and execution of a change order or other written confirmation of) (A) any net increase in design or construction costs resulting from such change, all of which increased costs shall be borne solely by Tenant, and (B) any delay such change will cause in the completion of Landlord's Work or the achievement of any milestone date(s), which delay shall not extend the Lease Commencement Date or the commencement of Tenant's rental obligations under the Lease (but shall appropriately extend any affected milestone date(s)) and shall be deemed a "Tenant Delay" for purposes hereof and of the Lease. Landlord shall be responsible for causing Landlord's Work to comply with all applicable legal requirements, including (without limitation) requirements of building codes, environmental laws and the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Landlord shall indemnify Tenant and hold it harmless with respect to any loss, cost, damage or liability resulting from Landlord's breach of this obligation (which indemnification shall survive the expiration or termination of the Lease). In constructing the Base Building Work, Landlord shall perform and install all work and materials designated "Base Building" in Schedule II attached hereto. In performing the Base Building Work, Landlord shall use best efforts to achieve the milestone dates set forth in Schedule III attached hereto. In the event Landlord fails to achieve any of said milestone dates, except to the extent such failure is caused by any Tenant Delay, the December 29, 1995 date set forth in Section 3.2 of the Lease shall be extended by one (1) day for each day of delay in achieving the milestone date; provided, however, that such extension shall not occur if (and then only to the extent) Landlord and Tenant mutually agree and acknowledge in writing that the completion of the Tenant Work (as defined below) was not delayed by reason of the delay in achieving Landlord's milestone date. Tenant agrees to use good faith reasonable efforts to counter the effect of any delay by Landlord in achieving any milestone date; however, Tenant shall not be obligated to expend any additional amounts in such efforts (e.g., by employing overtime labor) unless Landlord agrees in advance to bear any incremental cost associated with such efforts (whether or not such efforts are ultimately successful).
