2. PURCHASE PRICE.

2.1. Purchase Price. The total purchase price to be paid to Seller by Buyer for the Property shall be SEVEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($7,500,000.00) (the “Purchase Price”). Provided that all conditions precedent to Buyer’s

obligations to close as set forth in Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Agreement (collectively, the “Conditions Precedent”) have been satisfied and fulfilled, or waived in writing by Buyer, the Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller at Closing, plus or minus prorations and other adjustments hereunder, by federal wire transfer of immediately available funds.

2.2. Xxxxxxx Money. No later than three (3) business days after the complete execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition to the effectiveness of same (the date upon which this Agreement has been fully executed and delivered to both parties and the escrow holder, the “Effective Date”), Buyer shall deposit with Chicago Title Insurance Company, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Escrow Officer, 000 X Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx #0000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the “Escrow Holder”) the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) as its xxxxxxx money deposit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Deposit (hereinafter defined) shall be applied against the Purchase Price at Closing. Escrow Holder shall place the Deposit in an interest-bearing account with a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Buyer, and all interest shall accrue to Buyer’s account. Escrow shall be deemed open only when Escrow Holder is in possession of a mutually executed copy of this Agreement, or executed counterparts of same, and the Deposit (the “Opening of Escrow”).

The Deposit and any interest earned on it are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Deposit”. The Deposit (less the Independent Consideration referred to below) shall be applicable to the Purchase Price upon the Close of Escrow (as defined in Paragraph 3.1, below) and the Deposit shall be nonrefundable to Buyer from and after the expiration of the “Contingency Period” (as defined in Paragraph 5 below) in the event Buyer defaults under this Agreement following the Contingency Period.

However, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, or is otherwise terminated as a result of the failure of the Conditions Precedent, Escrow Holder shall promptly return the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, unless such Independent Consideration has been paid to Seller) to Buyer. If this Agreement is not terminated prior to the end of the Contingency Period in accordance with the terms hereof, or otherwise as a result of the failure of the Conditions Precedent, and the Closing fails to occur as a result of an uncured default of Buyer, the Deposit shall constitute “Liquidated Damages” as provided in and subject to the provisions of Paragraph 17.2 below.

3. CLOSING; INTERIM OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT

3.1. Closing. The purchase and sale contemplated herein shall be consummated at a closing to take place through an escrow with the Escrow Holder, on the basis of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Close of Escrow” or “Closing” shall be defined as the date that the grant deed the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B, (“Grant Deed”), conveying the Property to Buyer, is recorded in the Official Records of Orange County, California (the “Official Records”). This Escrow shall close ten (10) days after the expiration of the Contingency Period. The period commencing with the Opening of Escrow and continuing through the Close of Escrow shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Escrow Period.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the risk of loss of all or any portion of the Property shall be borne by Seller up to and including the actual time of the Closing, and thereafter by Buyer, subject, however, to the terms and conditions of Paragraph 16 below. Buyer and Seller shall execute and enter into such supplemental escrow instructions as the Escrow Holder shall reasonably require for purposes of defining its obligations hereunder provided that, as between Buyer and Seller, the terms of this Agreement shall in all events control.

3.2. Interim Occupancy Agreement. Seller shall deliver possession of the Property to Buyer at the Closing, subject to the Interim Occupancy Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (“Interim Occupancy Agreement”). As a material part of the consideration for this Agreement, Buyer agrees to permit Seller to continue to occupy a portion of the Property following the Closing in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions of that certain Interim Occupancy Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Interim Occupancy Agreement are matters of agreement between the parties, with which Escrow Holder is not to be concerned, save and except that each party shall deposit an executed copy of such Agreement into Escrow, for distribution at the Closing.

4. TITLE AND SURVEY.

4.1 Condition of Title. It shall be a condition to the Close of Escrow for Buyer’s benefit that title to the Property be conveyed to Buyer by the Grant Deed subject only to the following condition of title (“Condition of Title”):

(a) a lien to secure payment of general and special real property taxes and assessments for the current tax year in which the Close of Escrow occurs, a lien not yet due and payable;

(b) the lien of supplemental taxes arising from this transaction assessed pursuant to Chapter 3.5 commencing with Section 75 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code;

(c) matters created by Buyer or with the prior written consent of Buyer, including, without limitation, any mechanics liens or other encumbrances caused by or arising from Buyer’s activities at or upon the Real Property, if any, which occur prior to the Close of Escrow; and

(d) the Permitted Exceptions, pursuant to Paragraph 4.2 below.

On or before the expiration of the Contingency Period Buyer shall obtain, at Buyer’s sole cost, an ALTA, as-built survey of the Real Property containing a certification reasonably acceptable to Buyer (the “Survey”). At the Closing, the satisfaction of Buyer’s Title condition shall be evidenced by the willingness of Escrow Holder, in its capacity as Title Insurer (the “Title Company”) to issue its ALTA Extended Coverage Owner’s Form Policy of Title Insurance (“Title Policy”) in the amount of the Purchase Price showing title to the Property vested in Buyer subject only to the Condition of Title.

4.2 Buyer’s Review of Title.

(a) Buyer will cause the Title Company to deliver to Buyer and Seller as soon as practicable following the Opening of Escrow a preliminary title report with respect to the Property (the “Report”), together with legible copies of all documents referred to in Schedule B of the Report (the “Underlying Documents”). Buyer shall have until the date which is five (5) business days prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, to give Seller and Escrow Holder written notice (“Buyer’s Title Notice”) of Buyer’s disapproval or conditional approval of any matters shown in the Report and the Underlying Documents (collectively, the “Title Documents”). The failure of Buyer to give Buyer’s Title Notice on or before the date which is five (5) business days prior to the end of the Contingency Period shall be deemed to constitute Buyer’s approval of the title exceptions set forth in the Report. Seller shall have no obligation to pay any consideration or incur any liability in order to evaluate or ameliorate any disapproved title matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be unconditionally obligated to cure or remove the following title exceptions, whether disclosed in the Report, or first arising or first disclosed by the Title Company (or otherwise) to Buyer after the date of the Report: (a) liens securing a mortgage, deed of trust or trust deed evidencing an indebtedness of Seller or indebtedness of any predecessor in interest of Seller; (b) judgment liens against Seller; (c) tax liens with respect to Seller or the Property; and (d) any mechanics liens that are based upon a written agreement between Seller and the lien claimant (collectively the “Liquidated Defects”).

(b) If Seller does not elect in writing (“Seller’s Title Response”) to eliminate or ameliorate any disapproved or conditionally approved title matters, other than any of the Liquidated Defects, by the end of the day which is three (3) business days after the receipt of Buyer’s Title Notice, then Buyer shall have the right, upon delivery to Seller and Escrow Holder, not later than two (2) business days after the receipt of Seller’s Title Response (or the end of the above-described three (3) business day period if Seller does not deliver Seller’s Title Response), of a written notice stating same, to either: (1) waive its prior disapproval in which event said disapproved matters shall be deemed approved; or (2) terminate this Agreement and the Escrow created pursuant hereto, following which this Agreement, except for any matters which are expressly stated as surviving the Closing or termination of this Agreement, shall be of no further force or effect, and if such termination is timely and conforms to the requirements hereof, Escrow Holder shall promptly thereafter return the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, unless the Independent Consideration has been previously distributed to Seller) to Buyer. Failure to timely take either one of the actions described in (1) and (2) above shall be deemed to be Buyer’s election to take the action described in (1) above. All title matters which are either expressly approved or deemed approved shall be deemed to be “Permitted Exceptions”.

5. Buyer’s Contingencies. Buyer’s obligation under this Agreement to purchase the Property and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby is subject to and conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfaction or written waiver by Buyer, in its sole and absolute discretion of each of the contingencies (individually, a “Contingency” and collectively, the “Contingencies”) set forth in this Paragraph 5, in each case within the period ending on that date which is thirty (30) days after the Opening of Escrow (the “Contingency Period”).

5.1 Buyer’s Review of Due Diligence Matters. During the Contingency Period, Buyer, its agents, employees, consultants, contractors and subcontractors (the “Buyer Parties”) shall have had the right to enter upon the Property to make such inspections, surveys and tests as are necessary in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation soils tests, toxic waste analysis, geological and/or engineering studies and land use or related studies. Prior to entering the Property for any purpose, Buyer shall provide reasonable advance notice to Seller, and in undertaking and conducting any activities on the Property, shall not unreasonably interfere with any occupant’s business and operations thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to performing any borings at the Property or a Phase II environmental site assessment, Buyer shall obtain Seller’s prior written consent to undertake the borings or Phase II and the work plan therefor, which consent may be given or withheld in Seller’s sole and absolute discretion. In the event that Seller withholds such consent, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and receive a refund of its Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, unless such Independent Consideration has previously been distributed to Seller). Buyer shall repair any damage and indemnify, defend and hold Seller, and each of its parent or affiliate companies, and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, successors and assigns (the “Seller Parties”) harmless from any cost, claim, injury, damage, liability or expense arising from such entry or the performance of such tests by the Buyer Parties; however, Buyer shall have no liability to Seller, and Buyer’s indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligation above shall not apply, with respect to any pre-existing structural condition, soil or geological condition, Hazardous Materials, or other matter that is merely revealed as a result of such tests or inspections. However, such exception to liability shall not apply to any conditions of any type that are exacerbated by Buyer’s actions, or left in an unsafe condition that did not exist prior to Buyer’s investigations. Prior to entry on to the Property, Buyer shall supply Seller with a certificate of insurance for commercial general liability insurance, with a combined single limit of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), showing the Seller Parties as additional insureds. The indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligations set forth in this Paragraph 5.1 shall survive Closing or termination of this Agreement.

5.2 Review and Approval of Documents and Materials. Seller has made, or will, not later than five (5) business days following the Effective Date make, available to Buyer: any existing Phase I and/or other environmental reports, geotechnical reports, engineering data, non-financial data, last two years property tax bills, grading plans, building plans and specifications, topographical maps, building permits, certificates of occupancy, use permits and other governmental approvals related to the Property, or applicable portion thereof (but not any such items as relate primarily to Seller’s business operations); any existing survey of the Property; and all other material documents, reports, studies and other writings affecting or related to the Property, or applicable portion thereof, which in each case are in Seller’s possession (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Documents and Materials”). Buyer agrees that, unless and until the Close of Escrow occurs, all Documents and Materials obtained by Buyer from or on behalf of Seller hereunder, except for those which are public records, shall be kept confidential, and shall not be disclosed to anyone except that Buyer may reveal all or any portion of such information (i) as required in order to complete Buyer’s due diligence (e.g., by disclosing same to its architect, engineers or other consultants, and/or a potential lender), (ii) to its employees, current and prospective lenders, current and prospective partners, current and prospective investors, attorneys, agents, and title insurers, (iii) as required by law, regulation or legal process, and (iv) in any action between the parties. Buyer shall undertake to ensure, using

commercially reasonable efforts to do so, that any person or entity to whom it discloses any of the Documents and Materials shall also keep them confidential, and shall not further disclose same. Buyer’s confidentiality obligations hereunder shall terminate as of the Close of Escrow, but shall survive any termination of this Agreement. In the event the Close of Escrow fails to occur, all Documents and Materials delivered to Buyer by Seller, and all copies thereof, shall be promptly returned to Seller. Seller shall, at its sole cost, cause any and all Leases (as defined below) and service, maintenance, construction and other contracts and agreements relating to or affecting the use, ownership or development of the Property, to terminate effective as of the Close of Escrow. Since the Documents and Materials are being made available to Buyer solely as a courtesy, and not in any other capacity, Seller makes no representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever to Buyer as to the accuracy or completeness of the content of any documents or other information delivered to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the accuracy or completeness of the content of the Documents and Materials.

5.3 Contingencies. The foregoing Contingencies are solely for Buyer’s benefit and only Buyer may determine whether such Contingencies have been satisfied or will be waived. Except as expressly provided for herein, the Contingencies shall be deemed to have been satisfied or waived by Buyer if, prior to the expiration of the Contingency Period, Buyer delivers to Seller a written notice approving same (such notice being herein referred to as the “Approval Notice”). If Buyer does not deliver such Approval Notice to Seller on or before the expiration of the Contingency Period, or if Buyer delivers written notice to Seller on or before the expiration of the Contingency Period stating Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement, then the Contingencies shall be deemed not satisfied or waived, and this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect without the further action of either party, except for the survival of the indemnities set forth in Paragraph 5.1 above and any other provisions expressly made to survive the closing or early termination of the Escrow. Upon any such timely termination, Escrow Holder shall return the Deposit (less the Independent Consideration, unless such Independent Consideration has been distributed to Seller) to Buyer and the parties shall have no obligation to proceed to the Close of Escrow.

6. SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Property and (b) Buyer is relying solely upon such inspections, examination, and evaluation of the Property by Buyer in purchasing the Property on an “AS IS,” “WHERE IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” basis, without other representations or warranties or covenants, express or implied, of any kind or nature.

Buyer hereby further acknowledges and agrees that warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose are excluded from the transaction contemplated hereby, as are any warranties arising from a course of dealing or usage of trade, and that Seller has not warranted, and does not hereby warrant, that the Property now or in the future will meet or comply with the requirements of any law or regulation of any applicable governmental authority or jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for a breach of a representation or warranty contained in Paragraph 6 or the Grant Deed, Buyer hereby assumes as of the Close of Escrow all risk and liability (and agrees that Seller shall not be liable for any special, direct, indirect, consequential, or other damages) resulting or arising from or relating to the physical condition of the Property. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the sale provided for herein is made without any warranty by Seller as to the nature or quality of the Property; the development potential of the Property; the prior history of or activities on the Property; the quality of labor and/or materials included in any of the improvements; the fitness of the Property for any particular purpose or development potential; the presence or suspected presence of hazardous waste or substances on, about, or under the Property or the improvements; or the zoning or other legal status of the Property.

Without limiting anything else herein, Seller has advised Buyer that the roof of the Building may leak and is or may be otherwise defective, and Buyer acknowledges being so advised, and further that Seller has not and will not undertake any obligation with respect to repairing, replacing, investigation of or otherwise dealing with the Building roof.

7.2 Limitation on Seller’s Liability. Subject to, and without limiting, any of Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement and the documents required to be executed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer acknowledges and covenants that Seller shall not have any liability, obligation or responsibility of any kind to Buyer with respect to the following:

(a) The content or accuracy of any report, study, opinion or conclusion of any soils, toxic, environmental or other engineer or other person or entity who has examined the Property or any aspect thereof, unless Seller has actual knowledge of any inaccuracy with respect to same;

7.3 Environmental Release. Buyer acknowledges that Seller has provided necessary disclosures regarding the environmental condition of the Property as required by California Health and Safety Code Section 25359.7. Upon the closing, other than with respect to a breach of an express representation of Seller as set forth in Paragraph 6 hereof, or implied by law in the Grant Deed, Buyer agrees to release Seller and its respective officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, principals, agents, attorneys and subsidiaries, and each of them, from any and all claims, judgments, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs, expenses or damages which in any way and at any time relate to or arise from, directly or indirectly, the Property or Seller’s ownership thereof, any latent or patent defects concerning same and any actual or alleged violations of law concerning same, the environmental condition of the Property, including without limitation, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended (“CERCLA”) and/or the provisions of California Health And Safety Code Section 25300, et seq., as amended, or under any other provision of federal, state or local law, which Buyer had, has or may have, based upon the past, present or future presence, discharge, treatment, recycling, use, migration, storage, generation, or release or transportation (including without limitation all facilities, improvements, structures and equipment thereon and soil and groundwater thereunder) of hazardous materials. Buyer acknowledges that unknown and unsuspected hazardous materials may hereafter be discovered on or about the Property, and other than with respect to a breach of an express representation of Seller as set forth in Paragraph 6 hereof, or implied by law in the Grant Deed, Buyer knowingly releases Seller from any and all liability related thereto.

If any of Seller’s Representations contained herein are not true and correct on the Effective Date and continuing thereafter through and including the Closing Date, or if Seller fails to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein to be performed by Seller within the time for performance as specified herein (including Seller’s obligation to close), Buyer may elect either to (i) terminate Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in which event the Deposit shall be returned immediately to Buyer; or (ii) file an action for specific performance. Seller agrees that in the event Buyer elects (ii) above, Buyer shall not be required to post a bond or any other collateral with the court or any other party as a condition to Buyer’s pursuit of an action. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Paragraph 17.1 shall be deemed to in any way to limit or prevent Buyer from exercising any right of termination provided to Buyer elsewhere in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Seller defaults in any of its post-closing obligations, Buyer shall have all of its remedies at law and in equity on account of such default.

17.2. Default by Buyer. IN THE EVENT OF ANY DEFAULT BY BUYER HEREUNDER, SELLER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE, AS FIXED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND AS SELLER’S SOLE REMEDY HEREUNDER, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, THE DEPOSIT, EXCEPT THAT THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT APPLY TO BUYER’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR BUYER’S OBLIGATIONS UNDER PARAGRAPH 5.1 (IN CONNECTION WITH WHICH, BUYER’S LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO SELLER’S ACTUAL DAMAGES). BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICAL AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ESTIMATE THE DAMAGES WHICH SELLER MAY SUFFER IN THE EVENT BUYER DEFAULTS HEREUNDER AND FAILS TO COMPLETE THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY AS HEREIN PROVIDED. BUYER AND SELLER THEREFORE AGREE THAT A REASONABLE PRESENT ESTIMATE OF THE NET DETRIMENT THAT SELLER WOULD SUFFER IN THE EVENT OF BUYER’S DEFAULT OR BREACH HEREUNDER IS AN AMOUNT OF MONEY EQUAL TO THE DEPOSIT WHICH SHALL BE THE FULL, AGREED AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677 AND SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 3275 OR 3369. THE FOREGOING SHALL BE SELLER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY HEREUNDER.

FORM OF INTERIM OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT

This INTERIM OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into as of the day of , 2012 (the “Effective Date”) by and between DDi Global Corp., a California corporation (“DDi”), and Multi-Fineline Electronix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MFLEX”) (collectively, the “Parties”).

1. Sale Agreement. DDi and MFLEX have entered into that certain Real Estate Sales Contract and Escrow Instructions dated as of December 30, 2011 (“Purchase Agreement”) for the purchase and sale of the improved real property located at 0000 X. Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000-0000. Capitalized terms not expressly defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

2. Occupancy. The Effective Date is the date of the closing of sale by MFLEX and the purchase by DDi of the Property under the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the closing of such purchase and sale, and delivery of possession of the Property to DDi as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement, DDi hereby grants to MFLEX an irrevocable (subject to the right of DDi to terminate as expressly provided herein) license to continue to occupy that portion of the Building more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (“Licensed Area”), which occupancy will be upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The license provided for herein shall be non-exclusive to MFLEX only to the extent of those rights to enter upon the Licensed Area reserved by DDi pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. MFLEX hereby accepts the Licensed Area in its existing “AS-IS”, “WHERE-IS”, “WITH ALL FAULTS” condition, and DDi shall have no obligation to repair, improve or refurbish the Licensed Area at any time during the Term, except for any damage to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of DDi.

3. Term. The term of the limited license granted herein (“Term”) shall begin on the Effective Date and shall terminate thereafter on April 30, 2012 at 5:00 PM Pacific Time (the “Initial Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, MFLEX shall have the right to extend the Term for two (2) consecutive periods, each not to extend for more than one (1) month (each an “Extended Term”), by providing DDi with written notice of such extension not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extended Term, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MFLEX shall have no right to exercise any extension right after an Event of Default (as defined below in Section 10) has occurred,

4. License Fee. MFLEX agrees to pay DDi a license fee in the amount of (a) $20,000 (“License Fee”), for each calendar month of the Term, which License Fee shall be paid by MFLEX in advance to DDi on the first day of each calendar month during the Term without prior notice or demand. Failure to pay such License Fee by the first (1st) day of any calendar month shall constitute a breach hereunder, subject to MFLEX’s opportunity to cure as provided in Section 10 hereof. If the Initial Term begins on a day other than the first (1st) day of the corresponding calendar month, MFLEX shall pay to DDi on the Effective Date a pro rata portion of the License Fee based on the number of days during such calendar month that MFLEX will occupy the Licensed Area. If the Initial Term or final Extension Term shall expire on a day other than the last day of the corresponding calendar month, MFLEX shall pay to DDi on the first (1st) day of such month a pro rata portion of the License Fee based on the number of days during such calendar month that MFLEX will occupy the Licensed Area.

5. Scope of License. The scope of the License shall be limited to the following: (a) MFLEX may use the Licensed Area for general office and research and development purposes only, and MFLEX will not utilize or permit the Licensed Area to be used for any other purpose without the prior written consent of DDi, which consent may be granted, withheld or conditioned in the sole discretion of DDi; and (b) during the Term of this Agreement, DDi, in its sole discretion, may permit MFLEX to use additional portions of the Building to store certain equipment and furnishings. MFLEX understands and agrees that DDi shall have the right at all reasonable times during the Term to come into the Licensed Area upon reasonable prior notice to Xxxxx Xxxx at MFLEX, without any material disruption of MFLEX’s use of the Licensed Area or the operations of MFLEX therein, in connection with the planning for DDi’s relocation of its operations

to the Property, and that, during the Term DDi intends to begin moving furniture, fixtures and equipment and employees into the Building and the Real Property in connection with such relocation. MFLEX agrees to reasonably cooperate with DDi in connection with DDi’s planned relocation of its business operations to the Property, including complying with DDi’s reasonable requests to relocate personnel or activities within the Licensed Area during the Term, if necessary, but only to the extent such relocation does not materially interfere with MFLEX’s use of the Licensed Area and the operations of MFLEX therein. MFLEX shall have no right to make any alterations to any portion of the Licensed Area, and shall be responsible to maintain the Licensed Area, and all furniture, fixtures and equipment within the Licensed Area in good condition and repair during the Term. DDi shall not intentionally cause any disruption to utility services that affect the business operation of MFLEX at the Licensed Area during the Term and agrees to provide at least 24 hours’ prior notice to MFLEX for any brief interruptions in such services that may be required as part of DDi’s relocation of its operations to the Property, provided that such utility service shall not be interrupted during normal business hours (i) for more than a three (3) hour period at any time, (ii) more than one (1) time per day or (iii) more than three (3) times per week.

6. Surrender; Holding Over.

(b) Holding Over. Except as provided in Section 6(b)(1), MFLEX will not be permitted to hold over possession of the Licensed Area after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term without the express written consent of DDi, which consent DDi may grant, withhold or condition in its sole and absolute discretion.

(1) Holdover Not Due to Fault of MFLEX. The parties agree that MFLEX has leased a new headquarters at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xx., Xxxxxx, XX (the “New Headquarters”). The parties currently anticipate that MFLEX will move to the New Headquarters after the completion of tenant improvements, which should occur on or about April 15, 2012. The parties further agree that if MFLEX’s move to the New Headquarters is delayed, but the delay was not within MFLEX’s control (e.g., force majeure, unforeseeable construction delays, breach of the lease by the landlord for the New Headquarters that prevents MFLEX from taking possession of the New Headquarters), MFLEX will be permitted to hold over possession of the Licensed Area after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. The parties agree that during such holdover, MFLEX shall pay to DDi a holdover License Fee equal to $40,000 per month. The parties will work together to ensure that MFLEX can continue normal operations and DDi can move into the Real Property and begin use of the property. This may require MFLEX to move offices, furniture, and equipment to accommodate DDi’s move into the Real Property.

(2) Holdover Due to Fault of MFLEX. If MFLEX holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, and the holdover is not pursuant to Section 6(b)(1), MFLEX shall pay to DDi a holdover License Fee equal to $100,000 per month during the period of such holdover, as well as reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees incurred by DDi to remove MFLEX from and recover occupancy of the Licensed Area. This holdover License Fee is intended as a penalty for the failure of MFLEX to timely vacate the Licensed Area, and is not intended as an alternate performance provision. Furthermore, MFLEX agrees to waive all rights to contest eviction except MFLEX can raise the argument that the holdover was not due to MFLEX’s fault pursuant to Section 6(b)(1) and can offer proof of the same.

The provisions of this Section will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

7. Liens. MFLEX agrees to keep the Real Property free and clear of liens and encumbrances, and will not permit any mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other liens to be filed against all or any part of the Property due to MFLEX’s activities on the Real Property, including the Licensed Area. If any such lien or encumbrance is filed due to MFLEX’s activities on the Real Property, including the Licensed Area, MFLEX will, at its sole cost, expense and liability, promptly cause such liens and encumbrances to be released of record immediately upon DDi’s demand therefor.

8. Utilities and Services. All fees and charges for electricity, water, sewer, gas and all other utility services used or consumed in the Licensed Area, including all sales and other taxes or fees applicable to the sale or supply of such utilities, will be paid promptly by MFLEX directly to the entity collecting the same. In the event such utilities cannot be separately metered, MFLEX will reimburse DDi for its proportionate share of such utilities in an amount equal to the average MFLEX cost for such utilities for the months of September 2011 through November 2011, as evidenced by copies of xxxxxxxx for such utilities provided by MFLEX to DDi prior to the Effective Date.

9. Insurance; Indemnity and Release.

(ii) Except for the negligence or willful misconduct of MFLEX, its agents, employees or contractors, DDi hereby agrees to pay, and to defend at DDi’s cost, and to indemnify and hold MFLEX, its officers, agents and employees, harmless from and against any and all Claims, to the extent any such Claims, including, without limitation, injuries, deaths or damages to property, are caused or contributed to by the acts or omissions of DDi, its contractors, subcontractors and materialmen, regardless of tier, and its and their officers, agents or employees, or arise out of, as a result of or in connection with the entry, occupation or use of the Licensed Area by DDi, or the performance of any work performed by DDi, its employees, agents or contractors, at the Property.

(c) Subrogation. DDi and MFLEX agree to have their respective insurance companies issuing property damage insurance waive any rights of subrogation that such companies may have against DDi or MFLEX, as the case may be, except with respect to loss or damage caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the other party, its employees or agents. DDi and MFLEX hereby waive any right that either may have against the other on account of any loss or damage to their respective property to the extent such loss or damage is insurable under property damage insurance, and except with respect to loss or damage caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of the other party, its employees or agents.

(d) Release.

10. Default. In the event either Party breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, the non-breaching Party may send written notice of the same to the breaching Party and provide the breaching Party a reasonable opportunity to cure the same. If the breaching Party fails to cure such breach within three (3) business days of its receipt of such notice, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder; provided, however, that if the nature of the breach is such that it shall take longer than three (3) business days to cure, MFLEX shall not be in default hereunder if it is diligently pursuing such cure. The Parties agree that the right to notice and cure period does not extend to the obligations of MFLEX under Sections 3 and 6 of this Agreement.

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Restriction on Transfer. MFLEX may not transfer, assign, convey or hypothecate (any such transfer, assignment, conveyance or hypothecation or the like, a “Transfer”), any portion of this Agreement or the limited license to occupy the Licensed Area.

(b) Successors and Assigns.

If either party executes this Agreement as a corporation or partnership, then such party represents and warrants that such entity is duly qualified and in good standing to do business in California and that the individuals executing this Agreement on such party’s behalf are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement on its behalf, and in the case of a corporation, in accordance with a duly adopted resolution of the board of directors of such party, a copy of which is to be delivered to the other party on execution hereof, if requested by the other party, and in accordance with the by-laws of such party, and, in the case of a partnership, in accordance with the partnership agreement and the most current amendments thereto, if any, copies of which are to be delivered to the other party on execution hereof, if requested by the other party, and that this Agreement is binding upon such party in accordance with its terms.

(g) Separability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be considered separable such that if any provision or part of this Agreement is ever held to be invalid, void or illegal under any law or ruling, all remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect to the maximum extent permitted by law.

(h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which shall be one and the same agreement.

(j) Lease/License. Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary, the Parties agree that, during the Initial Term or any valid Extension Term for which MFLEX has provided proper notice, this Agreement shall be considered a lease agreement in all respects and that MFLEX shall be afforded all rights of a “tenant” or “lessee” under applicable law, provided, however, that after expiration of the Initial Term or any valid Extension Term, this Agreement shall be considered a license in all respects and MFLEX shall be considered a “licensee” hereunder. MFLEX acknowledges and agrees (i) that DDi is entering into this Agreement as an accommodation to MFLEX to facilitate the transition of the business of MFLEX from the Real Property to its New Headquarters, and (ii) that the parties’ agreement to convert MFLEX rights to a licensee at the expiration of the Initial Term or any valid Extension Term is intended to facilitate DDi’s ability to terminate the possession of MFLEX of the Licensed Area following the expiration or termination of any Extension Term.
