Without limiting the foregoing, upon request by Landlord's Mortgagee, the Landlord and Tenant shall execute such documents as Landlord's Mortgagee deems necessary to effect an amendment of this Lease.

(b) terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises without terminating this Lease by the giving of written notice to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall pay to Landlord (i) all Rent and other amounts accrued hereunder to the date of termination of possession, (ii) all amounts due from time to time under Section 24.3, and (iii) all Rent and other sums required hereunder to be paid by Tenant during the remainder of the Term, diminished by any net sums thereafter received by Landlord through reletting the Premises during said period. Reentry by Landlord in the Premises will not affect the obligations of Tenant hereunder for the unexpired Term. Landlord may bring action against Tenant to collect amounts due by Tenant on one or more occasions, without the necessity of Landlord's waiting until expiration of the Term. If Landlord elects to proceed under this Section 24.2(b), it may at any time elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 24.2(a);
(c) alter any and all locks and other security devices at the Premises without being obligated to deliver new keys to the Premises, unless Tenant has cured all Events of Default before Landlord has terminated this Lease under Section 24.2(a) or has entered into a lease to relet all or a portion of the Premises;

(d) if an Event of Default specified in Section 24.1(c) occurs, Landlord may remove and store any property that remains on the Premises and, if Tenant does not claim such property within thirty (30) days after Landlord has delivered to Tenant notice of such storage, Landlord may appropriate, sell, destroy or otherwise dispose of the property in question without notice to Tenant or any other person, and without any obligation to account for such property; and/or
(e) no taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as Landlord's acceptance of a surrender of the Premises by Tenant or an election of Landlord to terminate this Lease unless written notice of such intention is given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any leasing or subletting without termination of the Lease, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate the Lease for Tenant's previous breach.
-31-
Further, the failure by Landlord to complain of any action or inaction by Tenant, or to assert that any action or inaction by Tenant constitutes (or would constitute, with the giving of notice and the passage of time) an Event of Default, regardless of how long such failure continues, shall not extinguish, waive or in any way diminish the rights, remedies and recourses of Landlord with respect to such action or inaction. No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or of any breach by Tenant of any obligation of Tenant hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof, or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other provision hereof. Landlord's consent to any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Landlord's consent to any subsequent act of Tenant. No act or omission by Landlord (other than Landlord's execution of a document acknowledging such surrender) or Landlord's agents, including the delivery of the keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises.
26. RIGHT OF REENTRY. Upon the expiration or termination of the Term for whatever cause, or upon the exercise by Landlord of its right to reenter the Premises without terminating this Lease, Tenant shall immediately, quietly and peaceably surrender to Landlord possession of the Premises and all tenant improvements therein in "broom clean" and good order, condition and repair, except only for ordinary wear and tear, damage by casualty not covered by Section 15.2 and repairs to be made by Landlord pursuant to Section 15.1. If Tenant is in default under this Lease, Landlord shall have a lien on such personal property, trade fixtures and other property as set forth in Section 38-3-1, et seq., of the Utah Code Xxx. (or any replacement provision). Landlord may require Tenant to remove any personal property, trade fixtures, other property, alterations, additions and improvements made to the Premises by Tenant or by Landlord for Tenant, and to restore the Premises to their condition on the date of this Lease. All personal property, trade fixtures and other property of Tenant not removed from the Premises on the abandonment of the Premises or on the expiration of the Term or sooner termination of this Lease for any cause shall conclusively be deemed to have been abandoned and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without notice to, and without any obligation to account to, Tenant or any other person. While Tenant remains in
-32-
possession of the Premises after such expiration, termination or exercise by Landlord of its reentry right, Tenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Premises as a tenant-at-sufferance, subject to all of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, except that the Rent shall be one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Rent in effect immediately before such expiration, termination or exercise by Landlord. No such holding over shall extend the Term. If Tenant fails to surrender possession of the Premises in the condition herein required, Landlord may, at Tenant's expense, restore the Premises to such condition.
27.3 Applicable Law. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Utah. All monetary and other obligations of Landlord and Tenant are performable in the county where the Complex is located.
-33-
furnish to Landlord current financial statements for Tenant, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and certified by Tenant to be true and correct.
-34-
used in this Lease, they shall be construed as referring to this Lease in its entirety rather than to a particular section or provision, unless the context specifically indicates to the contrary. Any reference to a particular "Section" shall be construed as referring to the indicated section of this Lease.

Each person executing this Lease on behalf of a party warrants and represents that (a) such party is a duly organized and existing legal entity, in good standing in the State of Utah, (b) such party has full right and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Lease, (c) this Lease is binding upon and enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms, (d) the person executing and delivering this Lease on behalf of such party was duly authorized to do so, and (e) upon request of the other party, such person will deliver to the other party satisfactory evidence of his or her authority to execute this Lease on behalf of such party.
-35-
27.20 Miscellaneous. No amendment to this Lease shall be binding on Landlord or Tenant unless reduced to writing and signed by both parties. Each provision to be performed by Tenant shall be construed to be both a covenant and a condition. Venue on any action arising out of this Lease shall be proper only in the District Court of Salt Lake County, State of Utah. Landlord and Tenant waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of them against the other on all matters arising out of this Lease or the use and occupancy of the Premises. The submission of this Lease to Tenant is not an offer to lease the Premises or an agreement by Landlord to reserve the Premises for Tenant. Landlord shall not be bound to Tenant until Tenant has duly executed and delivered duplicate original copies of this Lease to Landlord and Landlord has duly executed and delivered one of those duplicate original copies to Tenant.

E. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein to the contrary, all capitalized terms used in this Second Amendment shall have the same meanings given such terms in the Lease.
A G R E E M E N T:
1. Extension of Term. The Term of the Lease for the Existing Premises, which is currently scheduled to expire on October 31, 2014, is hereby extended until January 31, 2018 (the "Revised Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated as provided in the Lease (as amended hereby). The period of the Term of the Lease (as so extended) from the Expansion Space Commencement Date (as defined below) through and including the Revised Expiration Date shall sometimes be referred to herein as the "Extended Term".
2. Expansion Space.
2.1. Addition of Expansion Space. Commencing on the Expansion Space Commencement Date, the Existing Premises shall be expanded to include the Expansion Space, which Expansion Space shall be leased on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease (as amended hereby). From and after the Expansion Space Commencement Date, the Existing Premises and the Expansion Space shall be collectively referred to as the "Premises", and shall contain a total of approximately 6,488 square feet of Rentable Area.
2.2. Expansion Space Term. The lease term for the Expansion Space (the "Expansion Space Term") shall commence on the Expansion Space Commencement Date and shall expire coterminously with the Extended Term for the Existing Premises on the Revised Expiration Date. For purposes of this Second Amendment, the "Expansion Space Commencement Date" shall mean the earlier of: (i) the date Tenant conducts business operations in all or any portion of the Expansion Space; and (ii) the date Landlord delivers the Expansion Space to Tenant Ready for Occupancy, as defined in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Tenant Work Letter"), subject to acceleration as a result of any Tenant Delays (as defined and provided in the Tenant Work Letter).
