“For any Alterations the cost of which exceeds $10,000, Tenant shall pay to Landlord (within 30 days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord) a fee for Landlord’s oversight and coordination thereof. If Tenant employs a third-party project manager to oversee and coordinate the construction, and if that manager is found by Landlord, before construction of the Alterations begins, to be reasonably acceptable, then the amount of the fee payable to Landlord is equal to 3.5% of the cost of such Alterations in excess of $10,000; otherwise, the amount of the fee payable to Landlord is equal to 5% of the cost of such Alterations in excess of $10,000.”
All Alterations constructed in the Premises shall be constructed in accordance with the Lease (including Section 9.C, as amended above). Without limiting Landlord’s approval rights or Tenant’s obligations under Section 9.C.(2) of the Original Lease, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is not obligated to provide construction management or supervision services for Tenant with respect to the construction of any Tenant Alterations within the Premises. However, if requested by Tenant, Landlord will act (or to cause its property manager to act) as Tenant’s construction manager with respect to any Alterations constructed by Tenant within the Premises costing in excess of $10,000, subject to agreement by Landlord and Tenant on a construction management fee to be paid by Tenant therefor (not to exceed three and one-half percent (3.5%) of the cost of such Alterations) and execution of a separate written agreement for such services in form and substance agreed by Landlord and Tenant.

In addition, provided the Naming Conditions are satisfied, Tenant shall have the right, from time to time and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to modify any other Building identification signage and any flags on the Property that identify the Building (including any new such signage or flags installed by Landlord after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date) to reflect the name of the Building as designated by Tenant pursuant to Section 9.2, subject to Landlord’s prior approval of the size, configuration, location, design and appearance of any such modified signage or flag, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. |

Landlord and Tenant agree that amounts paid by Landlord to the cafeteria service provider in a given year (the “Cafeteria Costs”), up to the Annual Cafeteria Cost Cap (hereinafter defined), shall be borne by Landlord and shall not be included in Operating Expenses. If the Cafeteria Costs for a given year exceed the Annual Cafeteria Cost Cap, then Tenant shall pay the amount of such excess, not to exceed an amount equal to Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000) for such year, upon demand as additional Rent, and Landlord shall bear (and shall not include in Operating Expenses) all Cafeteria Costs incurred in such year in excess of such $20,000 cap.

Original Landlord subsequently transferred and conveyed to Landlord all rights of Original Landlord and all obligations of Original Landlord, if any, under the EDA.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease, during any period during the Term that Tenant leases and occupies at least 408,037 Rentable Square Feet, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay to Landlord Hourly HVAC Charges pursuant to Section 7.A.(2) of the Original Lease for HVAC service requested by Tenant after Normal Business Hours, but Tenant shall be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share of the actual cost of such HVAC service, which amount shall be included in, and shall be paid in accordance with, Section 4.H of the Original Lease (notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in such section).

23. Entire Agreement; Supercession. This Fifth Amendment shall become effective only upon its full execution and delivery by Landlord and Tenant. This Fifth Amendment contains the parties’ entire agreement regarding the subject matter covered herein, and supersedes all prior correspondence, negotiations, and agreements, if any, whether oral or written, between the parties concerning such subject matter. There are no contemporaneous oral agreements, and there are no representations or warranties between the parties not contained in this Fifth Amendment. In all respects, except as specifically amended hereby, the terms and conditions of the Lease remain in full force and effect and unabated and the Lease, as amended by this Fifth Amendment, shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns.
24. Multiple Counterparts. The parties may execute this Fifth Amendment in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same instrument. To facilitate execution of this Fifth Amendment, the parties may execute and exchange, by telephone facsimile or electronic mail PDF, counterparts of the signature pages.
25. Joinder and Approval by Guarantor. By its execution below, Guarantor hereby acknowledges the terms and conditions of this Fifth Amendment and consents to and approves of the modifications set forth herein, including but not limited to the extension of the Term, the expansion and reduction of the Premises and the increase in Base Rent and resultant obligations under the Lease and hereby affirms that all of the terms and conditions in the Guaranty are hereby extended to include the Lease as amended by this Fifth Amendment.
26. Landlord Defaults. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant delivered to Original Landlord a letter, dated April 24, 2014, alleging that Original Landlord had defaulted in the performance of certain obligations under the Lease, including obligations that impacted certain Critical Systems and Equipment. Tenant represents and certifies to Landlord that all material defaults alleged by Tenant in such letter, including defaults in the provision of services and building maintenance, have been cured or resolved by Original Landlord. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be in default of, or otherwise liable to Tenant under, the Lease from and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date as a result of any default by Original Landlord prior to the Fifth Amendment Effective Date alleged in such letter, including the failure of Original Landlord to perform the scheduled maintenance and testing of the Critical Systems and Equipment and to provide the records and logs thereof to Tenant; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not relieve Landlord from the obligation to comply with its obligations under the Lease from and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, including the repair and maintenance obligations of Landlord set forth in the Lease.

EXHIBIT “C”
RENEWAL OPTION
1. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Exhibit C, Tenant is hereby granted the right and option (the “Fifth Amendment Renewal Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) renewal period of five (5) years (the “Fifth Amendment Renewal Term”), which option shall be exercised by delivery of written notice to Landlord given no more than twelve (12) months and no later than six (6) months prior to the Expiration Date, provided that at the time of such notice and at the commencement of such Fifth Amendment Renewal Term, (i) Tenant remains in occupancy of at least eighty percent (80%) of the Premises, and (ii) no uncured event of default by Tenant exists under the Lease. If Tenant fails to give written notice of exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option within the time period specified above, the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option shall be deemed waived and of no further force and effect and this Lease shall terminate upon the then-scheduled Expiration Date. If Tenant timely exercises the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option, the extension of the Term for the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term shall apply to the entirety of the Premises, and all of the terms, covenants and conditions provided in this Lease (as the same may have been amended) shall continue to apply during the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term, except that (a) the Base Rent during the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term shall be calculated at the then-prevailing Market Base Rental Rate (as defined and determined below) for the Premises; provided, however, in no event shall the Base Rent during the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term be less than the Base Rent in effect under this Lease immediately prior to the commencement of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term; (b) the Premises shall be provided in their then existing “AS-IS”, “WHERE-IS” condition and configuration at the time the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term commences, without any representation or warranty by Landlord whatsoever, express or implied, including, without limitation, the implied warranties of habitability, suitability, merchantability and fitness for any particular purposes, and without any obligation on the part of Landlord to furnish, install or modify any leasehold improvements or to provide any allowance or credit therefor; (c) Tenant shall have no option to renew the Lease beyond the expiration of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term; and (d) any terms, covenants and conditions that are expressly or by their nature inapplicable to the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term shall be deemed void and of no further force and effect. Tenant’s exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option shall be irrevocable, except as specifically provided below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Tenant shall not have the right to assign the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option to any subtenant or assignee, other than an assignee of Tenant’s interest under the Lease that is an Affiliate of Tenant (an “Affiliate Assignee”), and no subtenant or assignee other than an Affiliate Assignee may exercise such option.
2. As used herein, the term “Market Base Rental Rate” means the annual rate per Rentable Square Foot that a willing tenant would pay and a willing landlord would accept in arm’s length, bona fide negotiations for the Premises at the commencement of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term, as determined by Landlord taking into account comparable lease transactions (i.e., new leases, renewals, and expansions) made in the Building, if any, and the rental rate then being charged in downtown Fort Worth, Texas for space comparable to the Premises (taking into consideration use, location and/or floor level within the applicable building, definition of usable area, leasehold improvements provided (i.e. whether or not the space is delivered on an “as-is”
FIFTH AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE (PIER 1 SERVICES COMPANY) Active 16013260.14 |
C-1 |
basis), quality, age, location and condition thereof and of the applicable building, rental concessions [such as abatements or lease assumptions] and allowances, if any, then being provided in the market area, and the time the particular rate under consideration became effective, the additional rent and other amounts then payable by Tenant under this Lease, whether or not any brokerage commissions are payable, parking rentals or concessions, creditworthiness of Tenant, term of lease, area of leased premises, and whether the lease is gross or net). Bona fide written offers to lease space in the Building, including the Premises, made to Landlord by third parties (at arm’s-length) that are reflected in a letter of intent or term sheet executed by Landlord and the prospective tenant may be used as an indication of Market Base Rental Rate.
3. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice of exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option, Landlord will notify Tenant in writing of its determination of the Market Base Rental Rate for the Premises for the Fifth Amendment Renewal Term (“Landlord’s Determination”).
4. Tenant shall have a period of twenty (20) days following receipt of Landlord’s Determination to either (i) accept Landlord’s Determination and confirm Tenant’s exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option; (ii) withdraw its exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option by written notice to Landlord, in which event the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option shall be terminated and of no further force and effect and this Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of the then current Term; or (iii) deliver to Landlord Tenant’s determination of the Market Base Rental Rate (“Tenant’s Determination”). If Tenant fails to withdraw its exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option, then Tenant’s exercise of the Fifth Amendment Renewal Option shall be irrevocable and the Market Base Rental Rate shall be determined as provided below. If Tenant timely delivers Tenant’s Determination, then Landlord and Tenant shall thereafter attempt to agree upon the Market Base Rental Rate for a period of twenty (20) days following the date Landlord receives the Tenant’s Determination (the “Negotiation Period”), which agreement shall be deemed to have been made only if set forth in a writing signed by Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon the Market Base Rental Rate by the expiration of such Negotiation Period, then within five (5) business days after the expiration of the Negotiation Period, Landlord and Tenant shall convene a meeting at the Building and during such meeting each shall provide to the other its respective final determination of Market Base Rental Rate (respectively, the “Landlord’s Final Determination” and the “Tenant’s Final Determination”). If Landlord fails (i) to attend such meeting or (ii) to timely deliver to Tenant Landlord’s Final Determination, Landlord shall be deemed to have accepted Tenant’s Determination. If Tenant fails (i) to attend such meeting or (ii) to timely deliver to Landlord Tenant’s Final Determination, Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted Landlord’s Determination. If Tenant attends such meeting and delivers Tenant’s Final Determination, then within five (5) business days after such meeting, Tenant shall, by the delivery of written notice, either (i) accept Landlord’s Final Determination, or (ii) elect to have the Market Base Rental Rate determined in accordance with the arbitration procedures set forth in Section 5 below. If Tenant fails to timely deliver written notice of such election by the end of such five (5) business day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have elected to accept Landlord’s Determination.
5. If Tenant timely elects to implement the procedures set forth in this paragraph, then within five (5) Business Days after implementing these arbitration provisions, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a commercial real estate broker, licensed in Texas active in the leasing of Class A office buildings in the Central Business District of Fort Worth, Texas, for a period of not less than
FIFTH AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE (PIER 1 SERVICES COMPANY) Active 16013260.14 |
C-2 |
five (5) years prior to the date of his or her appointment (each a “Qualified Broker”), and provide written notice to the other party specifying the name and address of the Qualified Broker so chosen. No Qualified Broker may be a former or current employee of Landlord or Tenant or an individual who has represented either Landlord or Tenant in connection with this Lease. Each such Qualified Broker shall meet and confer with the other within five (5) days after the second such Qualified Broker is appointed, and shall together appoint a third Qualified Broker whose name and address shall be given to Landlord and Tenant. If the two Qualified Brokers cannot agree on the third Qualified Broker within five (5) days of their initial meeting, then either party, by written notice to the other, may request such appointment by the American Arbitration Association. The three Qualified Brokers shall meet to determine the Market Base Rental Rate within ten (10) days after the third Qualified Broker is appointed. The Qualified Brokers shall, by majority vote, select either Landlord’s Final Determination or Tenant’s Final Determination, whichever determination the Qualified Brokers decide most closely resembles the Market Base Rental Rate at the time of such determination. In no event shall the Qualified Brokers have authority to make an independent determination of Market Base Rental Rate or the authority to select any Market Base Rental Rate other than either Landlord’s Final Determination or Tenant’s Final Determination. Upon final determination of the Market Base Rental Rate, Tenant and Landlord shall execute a written agreement or acknowledgement confirming such Market Base Rental Rate. Landlord and Tenant shall each bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with their own Qualified Brokers, and Landlord and Tenant shall each pay fifty percent (50%) of the fees incurred in connection with the third Qualified Broker. In the event of the failure, refusal or inability of any selected broker to act, a new broker shall be appointed in his or her stead by whichever of Landlord or Tenant had selected such broker who fails, refuses or is unable to act. The determination of the Market Base Rental Rate pursuant to this process shall be conclusive and binding on Landlord and Tenant. None of the broker shall have the power to amend or modify the provisions hereof. The parties recognize, however, that performance of the foregoing provisions is, in part, dependent upon broker and others who are not a party hereto. If such brokers have been timely appointed by the parties hereto but thereafter fail to perform their obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof, no such failure shall constitute a breach hereof by either party hereto nor a waiver of Tenant’s renewal or preferential rights and options.

EXHIBIT “D”
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT RIGHT OF NEGOTIATION
1. Subject to the terms and provisions of this Exhibit D, Tenant is hereby granted a first right of negotiation (the “Right of Negotiation”) to enter into negotiations for the lease of space to be contained in any future office building (other than the Building) that Landlord elects to build on the Property (the “Future Building”). The Right of First Negotiation shall expire and terminate on the earliest to occur of the following: (a) Tenant fails to lease and occupy at least 80% of the Rentable Square Footage of the Building; or (b) the date that is three (3) years prior to the then-scheduled expiration of the Term (unless Tenant agrees in writing to exercise the Renewal Option or otherwise renew and extend the Term of the Lease); or (c) the date the Lease is terminated (the period from the Fifth Amendment Effective Date through the expiration of the Right of Negotiation being referred to herein as the “First Negotiation Period”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have no obligation to develop a Future Building on the Property. For purposes of this Exhibit D, Tenant shall not be deemed to be occupying the applicable portion of the Premises unless such occupancy is by Tenant or an Affiliate of Tenant.
2. If at any time during the First Negotiation Period, Landlord desires to build a Future Building or to propose to develop (or respond to a request for proposal to develop) a build-to-suit Future Building (a “BTS Future Building”) for another tenant (the “BTS Tenant”), Landlord will provide written notice (the “Negotiation Notice”) to Tenant generally stating the approximate proposed size of the building and other material economic terms for the lease of space therein (the “Lease Terms”), including, without limitation, basic rent structure, term, and projected commencement date. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing (an “Election Notice”) whether Tenant elects to lease a portion or all of the proposed development on the terms set forth by Landlord (provided that, as to any such election in the case of a BTS Future Building, Tenant must elect to lease not less than the amount of space to be leased by the BTS Tenant, as set forth in Landlord’s proposal to the BTS Tenant) within thirty (30) days after Landlord delivers the Negotiation Notice. If Tenant timely delivers the Election Notice, then Landlord and Tenant will thereafter endeavor, in good faith and with due diligence, to agree upon and thereafter execute a lease of space in such Future Building consistent with the Future Building Lease Terms (and, in the case of a BTS Future Building, covering not less than the amount of space to be leased by the BTS Tenant), with such changes thereto as Landlord and Tenant may agree, and containing such other terms and conditions as Landlord and Tenant may each require, each acting in their sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit D, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that any failure by Landlord and Tenant to reach agreement on any such lease shall not constitute a default by Landlord or Tenant under this Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, Landlord shall have the right to negotiate with prospective tenants with respect to the lease of space in a BTS Future Building (including by submitting or responding to requests for proposal) prior to delivery of a Negotiation Notice and during the pendency of proceedings under this Paragraph 2.
3. If Tenant fails to deliver the Election Notice within the thirty (30)-day period specified above, or if after delivery of the Election Notice, Landlord and Tenant fail to agree upon a
FIFTH AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE (PIER 1 SERVICES COMPANY) Active 16013260.14 |
D-1 |
lease for such space within forty-five (45) days following Landlord’s receipt of the Election Notice, in each case time being of the essence, then Tenant shall be deemed to have elected not to enter into a lease for space in a Future Building, and Landlord shall thereafter be free to lease all or any portion of a Future Building without restriction pursuant to this Exhibit D, except that, if Landlord fails to commence construction of a Future Building within thirty (30) months of the Negotiation Notice, then Landlord will again be required to deliver a Negotiation Notice with respect to any Future Building proposed to be developed by Landlord on the Property.
4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to deliver a Negotiation Notice, and Tenant shall not have the right to deliver an Election Notice, if an uncured Monetary Default and/or default described in Section 18.D of the Original Lease then-exists under the Lease. In addition, if, at any time at or after delivery by Landlord of the Negotiation Notice and prior to the full and final execution of a Future Building Lease, the First Negotiation Period expires pursuant to Paragraph 1 above, Landlord may, at its sole option, elect to terminate Tenant’s exercise of the Right of Negotiation, in which event Tenant shall be deemed to have elected not to lease space in the Future Building, the Right of Negotiation shall expire and terminate, and Landlord shall be free to develop and lease all or any portion of a Future Building without restriction pursuant to Exhibit D.
5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Tenant shall not have the right to assign the Future Development Refusal Right to any subtenant or assignee other than an Affiliate Assignee, and no subtenant or assignee other than an Affiliate Assignee may exercise such option.
6. Landlord and Tenant shall execute a memorandum or other instrument in recordable form and otherwise reasonably acceptable to each party acknowledging the Right of Negotiation set forth in this Exhibit D, and the same shall be recorded by Landlord in the Official Public Records of Real Property of Tarrant County, Texas. Upon the expiration of the First Negotiation Period, Tenant shall, upon demand, execute and deliver to Landlord a release or other similar instrument in recordable form and otherwise reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant acknowledging the termination of the Right of First Negotiation.
