The term “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all items of Operating Expenses (adjusted as provided in Section 2.202) that are within the reasonable control of Landlord, but shall specifically exclude all Utility Expenses, Insurance Premiums, Electrical Expenses, Real Estate Taxes, Additional Pass Through Costs and all costs incurred because of force majeure (collectively, the “Non-Capped Expenses”). It is understood and agreed that there shall be no cap on Non-Capped Expenses.

Real Estate Taxes shall also exclude any penalties or interest for late payment of Real Estate Taxes.
(e) “Additional Pass Through Costs” shall mean the following costs and expenses incurred by Landlord from and after January 1 of the calendar year in which this Lease is executed: (1) subject to the limitations of clause “(2)” following, the cost of any improvement made to the Property by Landlord that is required under any governmental law or regulation which was not promulgated, or which was promulgated but was not applicable to the Building, at the time the Building was constructed, amortized over a reasonable period using generally accepted accounting and depreciation standards and principles, together with an amount equal to interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum (the “Amortization Rate”) on the unamortized balance thereof; (2) the cost of any improvement made to the Common Areas of the Property that is required under interpretations or regulations issued after the Commencement Date under, or amendments made after the Commencement Date to, the provisions of Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Xxx. art. 9102 and the provisions of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§12101-12213 (collectively, the “Disability Acts”), amortized over a reasonable period using generally accepted accounting and depreciation standards and principles, together with an amount equal to interest at the Amortization Rate on the unamortized balance thereof; (3) the cost of any labor-saving or energy-saving device or other equipment installed in the Building (provided Landlord reasonably anticipates that the installation thereof will reduce Operating Expenses), amortized over a reasonable period using generally accepted accounting and depreciation standards and principles, together with an amount equal to interest at the Amortization Rate on the unamortized balance thereof; and (4) all other capital costs and expenses which would generally be regarded as ownership, operating, maintenance and management costs and expenses which would normally be amortized over a reasonable period using generally accepted accounting and depreciation standards and principles.
2.202 Gross-Up.
Operating Expenses and Electrical Expenses shall be grossed up to include all additional costs and expenses of owning, operating, maintaining and managing the Building which Landlord determines that it would have incurred, paid or been obligated to pay during such year if the Building had been one hundred percent (100%) occupied.
2.203 Payment Obligation.
Commencing with the Commencement Date and continuing until the expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Additional Rent, in monthly installments as hereinafter provided. At least thirty (30) days prior to the Commencement Date and at least thirty (30) days prior to January 1 of each calendar year thereafter during the term of this Lease (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible), Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of Tenant’s reasonably estimated Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year and the amount of the monthly installment due for each month during such year. Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the Commencement Date and on the first day of each month thereafter the amount of the applicable monthly installment of Additional Rent, provided, however, if the applicable installment covers a partial month, then such installment shall be prorated on a daily basis. Within

Office Lease - One Galleria Tower
ninety (90) days after the end of (a) each calendar year and (b) the Expiration Date or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a statement showing Tenant’s actual Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year, provided that with respect to the calendar year in which the Expiration Date occurs, (x) that calendar year shall be deemed to have commenced on January 1 of that year and ended on the Expiration Date (the “Final Calendar Year”) and (y) Landlord shall have the right to estimate the actual Operating Expenses allocable to the Final Calendar Year but which are not determinable within such ninety day period. If Tenant’s total monthly payments of Additional Rent for the applicable year are less than Tenant’s actual Additional Rent, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such underpayment. If Tenant’s total monthly payments of Additional Rent for the applicable year are more than Tenant’s actual Additional Rent, then Landlord shall credit against the next Additional Rent payment or payments due from Tenant the amount of such overpayment, provided, however, with respect to the Final Calendar Year, Landlord shall pay to Tenant the amount of such excess payments, less any amounts then owed to Landlord. Unless Tenant takes written exception to any item within sixty (60) days after the furnishing of an annual statement, such statement shall be considered as final and accepted by Tenant. Any amount due Landlord as shown on any such statement shall be paid by Tenant within sixty (60) days after it is furnished to Tenant.
Tenant shall have the right to perform, no more than once in any calendar year, an annual audit on Landlord’s books and records which reflect Additional Rent to verify Landlord’s calculation of actual Additional Rent for the prior calendar year, provided that (i) such audit shall be commenced, if at all, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the receipt of the annual statement of actual Additional Rent from Landlord, (ii) such audit shall be performed during Landlord’s normal business hours, at the place where Landlord maintains its records (or such other place as Landlord shall deliver the appropriate records) and only after Landlord has received thirty (30) days prior written notice, (iii) such audit shall be conducted by a certified public accountant with a so called “big five” accounting firm or another firm reasonably acceptable to Landlord, which firm shall not provide audit services on a contingency fee basis, (iv) the auditor’s report reflecting the results of such audit shall be promptly delivered to Landlord, (v) such audit and/or inspection shall commence within thirty (30) days after Landlord makes such books and records available to Tenant’s auditor and thereafter proceed reasonably to conclusion, (vi) such audit and/or inspection shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Landlord’s business, and (vii) both Tenant and the accounting firm conducting the audit and/or inspection shall execute a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of Landlord, in the form reasonably requested by Landlord, prior to the commencement of the audit or inspection. This paragraph shall not be construed to limit or xxxxx Tenant’s obligation to pay the Additional Rent when due as set forth in this Lease. If such audit conducted by Tenant discloses that Tenant has overpaid Additional Rent, then, after review of such audit by Landlord or by accountants selected by Landlord, any overpayment shall be refunded to Tenant (provided that if Tenant is then in default in the payment of any Rent, such overpayment shall be applied against any amount Tenant owes as a result of such default) within thirty (30) days after the verification of the audit. Failure by Tenant to contest or dispute the allocation of Additional Rent within one hundred twenty (120) days of the date any statement for Additional Rent is submitted to Tenant (a) shall be deemed a waiver of the applicable audit or dispute right and any right to contest the Additional Rent for the applicable calendar year; and (b) shall be deemed acceptance of the Additional Rent charges as submitted to and reviewed by Tenant. The foregoing provisions shall survive termination or expiration of the Lease. Tenant shall not be entitled to conduct such an audit if Tenant is in default under this Lease. If Tenant’s audit shall disclose that Tenant’s payments were greater than what Tenant was required to pay pursuant to the terms of this Lease by more than five percent (5%), Landlord shall pay to Tenant, within five (5) days after written demand from Tenant, the reasonable costs of the inspection and audit. If Tenant’s audit shall disclose that Tenant’s payments were not greater than what Tenant was required to pay pursuant to the terms of this Lease by more than five percent (5%), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within five (5) days after written demand from Landlord, the reasonable costs of Landlord with respect to the inspection and audit.
2.204 Billing Disputes.
If there exists any dispute as to (a) the amount of Additional Rent, (b) whether a particular expense is properly included in Additional Rent or (c) Landlord’s calculation of Additional Rent (each an “Additional Rent Dispute”), the events, errors, acts or omissions giving rise to such Additional Rent Dispute shall not constitute a breach or default by Landlord under this Lease and even if a judgment resolving the Additional Rent Dispute is entered against Landlord, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect and Landlord shall not be liable for any consequential damages resulting from the event, error, act or omission giving rise to such Additional Rent Dispute. Notwithstanding the existence of an Additional Rent Dispute, Tenant shall pay timely the amount of Additional Rent which is in dispute and will continue to make all subsequent payments of Additional Rent as and when required under this Lease, provided that the payment of such disputed amount and other amounts shall be without prejudice to Tenant’s position.

2.205 Revisions in Estimated Additional Rent.
If Real Estate Taxes, Insurance Premiums, Utility Expenses or Additional Pass Through Costs increase during a calendar year or if the number of square feet of rentable area in the Premises increases, Landlord may revise the estimated Additional Rent during such year by giving Tenant written notice to that effect and thereafter Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in each of the remaining months of such year, an additional amount equal to the amount of such increase in the estimated Additional Rent divided by the number of months remaining in such year.
SECTION 2.3 RENT DEFINED AND NO OFFSETS.
Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums (whether or not expressly designated as rent) required to be paid to Landlord by Tenant under this Lease (including, without limitation, any sums payable to Landlord under any addendum, exhibit, rider or schedule attached hereto) shall constitute rent and are sometimes collectively referred to as “Rent”. Each payment of Rent shall be paid by Tenant when due, without prior demand therefor and without deduction or setoff.
SECTION 2.4 LATE CHARGES.
If any installment of Basic Annual Rent or Additional Rent or any other payment of Rent under this Lease shall not be paid when due, a one time per occurrence, “Late Charge” of five cents ($.05) per dollar so overdue may be charged by Landlord to defray Landlord’s administrative expense incident to the handling of such overdue payments; provided, however, that for the first month during each calendar year when a Late Charge would otherwise be assessed pursuant to the immediately preceding clause, no Late Charge shall be assessed unless Tenant has failed to pay its required installment of Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent or other payment under this Lease for more than five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s written notice to Tenant advising Tenant of such failure. Each Late Charge shall be payable on demand.
ARTICLE 3 – SECURITY DEPOSIT
SECTION 3.1 DEPOSIT. Tenant will deposit the Security Deposit with Landlord on execution of this Lease. Landlord is not required to either segregate the Security Deposit from any other funds or pay any interest on the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit secures Tenant’s performance of all Lease obligations. Landlord may apply the Security Deposit against any cost Landlord incurs or damage Landlord suffers because Tenant fails to perform any Lease obligation, including payment of Rent. Upon Landlord’s demand, Tenant shall immediately replenish any Security Deposit so applied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Tenant shall cause The viaLink Company to deposit the unapplied balance of the security deposit of said company, which is currently being held by Landlord pursuant to that certain office lease agreement by and between said company and Landlord in Three Galleria which said company and Landlord have agreed to terminate upon the Commencement Date of this Lease, with Landlord to be held as security hereunder.
SECTION 3.2 REFUND. If Tenant fully and faithfully performs all of its Lease obligations, then Landlord will refund the Security Deposit (or any balance remaining) to Tenant within 60 days after the expiration or early termination of the Term and Tenant’s vacation and surrender of the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by §1.301. If Tenant has assigned this Lease, Landlord may return the Security Deposit to either Tenant or the then current assignee. Landlord’s transfer of the Security Deposit to any transferee of Landlord’s interest in the Building relieves Landlord of its obligations under this section, and Tenant will look solely to Landlord’s transferee for return of the Security Deposit.

ARTICLE 7 – INSURANCE, FIRE AND CASUALTY
SECTION 7.1 TOTAL OR PARTIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING OR THE PREMISES.
In the event that the Building should be totally destroyed by fire or other casualty or in the event the Building (or any portion thereof) should be so damaged that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty, Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease, in which event Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease effective with the date of such damage. Landlord shall exercise the termination right pursuant to the preceding sentence, if at all, by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of the casualty. In the event that the Premises or any element of the Building which is essential to Tenant’s operations in the Premises should be so damaged by fire or other casualty that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty, Tenant may, at its option terminate this Lease, in which event Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective the date of termination. Tenant shall exercise the termination right pursuant to the preceding sentence, if at all, by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of the casualty. In the event the Building or the Premises should be damaged by fire or other casualty and, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, the rebuilding or repairs can be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the casualty, or if the damage should be more serious but neither Landlord nor Tenant elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section, in either such event Landlord shall, within sixty (60) days after the date of such casualty, commence (and thereafter pursue with reasonable diligence) repairing the Building and the Premises (including Tenant’s Improvements), but only to the extent of insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord for such repairs, to substantially the same condition which existed immediately prior to the happening of the casualty. In no event shall Landlord be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the furniture, equipment, fixtures, inventory, supplies or any other personalty or any other improvements (except Tenant’s Improvements to the extent set forth in the preceding sentence), which may have been placed by Tenant within the Building or at the

Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent during the time the Premises are unfit for occupancy; provided, that if such casualty was caused by Tenant, its agents, employees, licensees or invitees, Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated only to the extent Landlord is compensated for such Basic Annual Rent and Additional Rent by loss of rents insurance, if any. Notwithstanding Landlord’s restoration obligation, in the event any mortgagee under a deed of trust, security agreement or mortgage on the Building should require that the insurance proceeds be used to retire or reduce the mortgage debt or if the insurance company issuing Landlord’s fire and casualty insurance policy fails or refuses to pay Landlord the proceeds under such policy, Landlord shall have no obligation to rebuild and this Lease shall terminate upon notice by Landlord to Tenant. Subject to the provisions of subsection 7.201(c) below, any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to the Building or to the Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control.

Landlord shall, within ten (10) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Required Sublease Information deliver to Tenant a written notice (each such notice, a “Landlord Response” and any Landlord Response which exercise Landlord’s termination right, a “Notice of Termination”) in which Landlord either (x) terminates this Lease, if Tenant desires to sublease all of the Premises, or if Landlord does not exercise its termination

right pursuant to the foregoing clause, consents or withholds its consent to the proposed sublease. Notwithstanding anything contained above in this subsection 11.201, however, Landlord agrees that if Landlord elects alternative (z), then Landlord will not withhold or delay its consent in an unreasonable manner.
11.202 Effect of Termination.
If Landlord timely exercises its option to terminate this Lease as to the entire Premises as provided in subsection 11.201, then this Lease shall terminate on a date specified by Landlord in the Landlord Response (the “Specified Termination Date”), which Specified Termination Date shall not be sooner than thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s termination notice, nor later than ninety (90) days after the date of Landlord’s termination Notice), and the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid and apportioned to the termination date.
SECTION 11.3 LANDLORD’S RIGHTS RELATING TO ASSIGNEE OR SUBTENANT.
Without limiting Landlord’s consent rights and as a condition to obtaining Landlord’s consent, (a) each assignee must assume all applicable obligations under this Lease, and (b) each sublessee must confirm that its sublease is subject and subordinate to this Lease. In addition, each assignee and sublessee shall agree to cause the Premises to comply at all times with all requirements of the Disability Acts (as amended), including, but not limited to, obligations arising out of or associated with such assignee’s or subtenant’s use of or activities or business operations conducted within the Premises. No assignee or sublessee of the Premises or any portion thereof may assign or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, except in accordance with the provisions of this Lease or as otherwise permitted by Landlord. To the extent the rentals or income derived from any sublease or assignment exceed the sum of the rentals payable under this Lease in respect of the portion of the Premises covered by such sublease or assignment after all reasonable remarketing costs are first recouped by Tenant (such excess, the “Excess Sublease Rents”), Landlord shall be entitled to one-half of such Excess Sublease Rents and, accordingly, such one-half shall be paid over to Landlord in consideration for Landlord’s consent to the applicable assignment or sublease. If this Lease or any part hereof is assigned or the Premises or any part thereof are sublet, Landlord may at its option collect directly from such assignee or sublessee all rents becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease, in which event Landlord shall first apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord by Tenant hereunder. Tenant hereby authorizes and directs any such assignee or sublessee to make such payments of rent direct to Landlord upon receipt of notice from Landlord and Tenant agrees that any such payments made by an assignee or sublessee to Landlord shall, to the extent of the payments so made, be a full and complete release and discharge of rent owed to Tenant by such assignee or sublessee. No direct collection by Landlord from any such assignee or sublessee shall be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant or any guarantor of Tenant from the further performance of its obligations hereunder. Receipt by Landlord of rent from any assignee, sublessee or occupant of the Premises or any part thereof shall not be deemed a waiver of the above covenant in this Lease against assignment and subletting or a release of Tenant under this Lease. In the event that, following an assignment or subletting, this Lease or the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder are terminated for any reason, including without limitation in connection with an Event of Default by or bankruptcy of Tenant (which, for the purposes of this Section 11.3, shall include all persons or entities claiming by or through Tenant), Landlord may, at its sole option, consider this Lease to be thereafter a direct lease to the assignee or subtenant of Tenant upon the terms and conditions contained in this Lease.
SECTION 11.4 ASSIGNMENT AND BANKRUPTCY.
11.401 Assignments after Bankruptcy.
If, pursuant to applicable bankruptcy law (as hereinafter defined), Tenant (or its successor in interest hereunder) is permitted to assign this Lease in disregard of the restrictions contained in this Article 11 (or if this Lease shall be assumed by a trustee for such person), the trustee or assignee shall cure any default under this Lease and shall provide adequate assurance of future performance by the trustee or assignee including (a) of the source of payment of Basic Annual Rent and performance of other obligations under this Lease (for which adequate assurance shall mean the deposit of cash security with Landlord in an amount equal to the sum of one (1) year’s Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent and other Rent then reserved hereunder for the calendar year preceding the year in which such assignment is intended to become effective, which deposit shall be held by Landlord, without interest, for the balance of the Term as security for the full and faithful performance of all of the obligations under this Lease on the part of Tenant yet to be performed) and that any such assignee of this Lease shall have a net worth exclusive of good will, computed in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles, equal to at least ten (10) times the aggregate of the Basic Annual Rent reserved hereunder and (b) that the use of the Premises shall be in accordance with the requirements of Article 3 hereof and, further, shall in no way diminish the reputation of the Building as a

first-class office building or impose any additional burden upon the Building or increase the services to be provided by Landlord. If all defaults are not cured and such adequate assurance is not provided within sixty (60) days after there has been an order for relief under applicable bankruptcy law, then this Lease shall be deemed rejected, Tenant or any other person in possession shall vacate the Premises, and Landlord shall be entitled to retain any Basic Annual Rent, Additional Rent and any other Rent, together with any security deposit previously received from the Tenant, and shall have no further liability to Tenant or any person claiming through Tenant or any trustee.
11.402 Bankruptcy of Assignee.
If Tenant assigns this Lease to any party and such party or its successors or representatives causes termination or rejection of this Lease pursuant to applicable bankruptcy law, then, notwithstanding any such termination or rejection, Tenant (a) shall remain fully liable for the performance of all covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions contained in this Lease, as though the assignment never occurred and (b) shall, without in any way limiting the foregoing, in writing ratify the terms of this Lease, as same existed immediately prior to the termination or rejection.
ARTICLE 12 – TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD, SUBORDINATION AND TENANT’S ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
SECTION 12.1 SALE OF THE PROPERTY.
In the event of any transfer of title to the Building, the transferor shall automatically be relieved and freed of all obligations of Landlord under this Lease accruing after such transfer, provided that if a Security Deposit has been made by Tenant, Landlord shall not be released from liability with respect thereto unless Landlord transfers the Security Deposit to the transferee.
SECTION 12.2 SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT AND NOTICE.
This Lease is subject and subordinate to (a) any lease wherein Landlord is the tenant and to the liens of any and all mortgages and deeds of trust, regardless of whether such lease, mortgage or deed of trust now exists or may hereafter be created with regard to all or any part of the Property, (b) any and all advances (including interest thereon) to be made under any such lease, mortgage or deed of trust, and (c) all modifications, consolidations, renewals, replacements and extensions of any such lease, mortgage or deed of trust; provided that the foregoing subordination in respect of any mortgage or deed of trust placed on the Property after the date hereof shall not become effective until and unless the holder of such mortgage or deed of trust delivers to Tenant a non-disturbance agreement on the form customarily used by such holder (which may include Tenant’s agreement to attorn as set forth below) permitting Tenant, if Tenant is not then in default under, or in breach of any provision of, this Lease, to remain in occupancy of the Premises in the event of a foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant also agrees that any lessor, mortgagee or trustee may elect (which election shall be revocable) to have this Lease superior to any lease or lien of its mortgage or deed of trust and, in the event of such election and upon notification by such lessor, mortgagee or trustee to Tenant to that effect, this Lease shall be deemed superior to the said lease, mortgage or deed of trust, whether this Lease is dated prior to or subsequent to the date of said lease, mortgage or deed of trust. Tenant shall, in the event of the sale or assignment of Landlord’s interest in the Premises (except in a sale-leaseback financing transaction), or in the event of the termination of any lease in a sale-leaseback financing transaction wherein Landlord is the lessee, attorn to and recognize such purchaser, assignee or mortgagee as Landlord under this Lease. Tenant shall, in the event of any proceedings brought for the foreclosure of, or in the event of the exercise of the power of sale under, any mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises, attorn to and recognize purchaser at such sale, assignee or mortgagee, as the case may be, as Landlord under this Lease. The above subordination and attornment clauses shall be self-operative and no further instruments of subordination or attornment need be required by any mortgagee, trustee, lessor, purchaser or assignee. In confirmation thereof, Tenant agrees that, upon the request of Landlord, or any such lessor, mortgagee, trustee, purchaser or assignee, Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever instruments may be required for such purposes and to carry out the intent of this Section 12.2.

SECTION 13.2 REMEDIES OF LANDLORD.
13.201 Termination of the Lease.
Upon the occurrence of a default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord may, without judicial process, terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to Tenant (whereupon all obligations and liabilities of Landlord hereunder shall terminate) and, without further notice and without liability, repossess the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to recover all loss and damage Landlord may suffer by reason of such termination, whether through inability to relet the Premises on satisfactory terms or otherwise, including without limitation, the following (without duplication of any element of damages):
(a) accrued Rent to the date of termination and Late Charges, plus interest thereon at the rate established under Section 15.10 below from the date due through the date paid or date of any judgment or award by any court of competent jurisdiction, the unamortized cost of Tenant’s Improvements, brokers’ fees and commissions, attorneys’ fees, moving allowances and any other costs incurred by Landlord in connection with making or executing this Lease, the cost of recovering the Premises and the costs of reletting the Premises (including, without limitation, advertising costs, brokerage fees, leasing commissions, reasonable attorneys’ fees and refurbishing costs and other costs in readying the Premises for a new tenant);
(b) the present value of the Rent (discounted at a rate of interest equal to eight percent (8%) per annum (the “Discount Rate”)) that would have accrued under this Lease for the balance of the Lease term but for such termination, reduced by the reasonable fair market rental value of the Premises for such balance of the Lease term (determined from the present value of the actual base rents, discounted at the Discount Rate, received and to be received from Landlord’s reletting of the Premises or, if the Premises are not relet, the base rents, discounted at the Discount Rate, that would be received from a comparable lease and comparable tenant for a comparable term and taking into account among other things, the condition of the Premises, market conditions and the period of time the Premises may reasonably remain vacant before Landlord is able to re-lease the same to a suitable replacement tenant, it being agreed that Landlord shall have no obligation to relet or attempt to relet the Premises);
(c) plus any other costs or amounts necessary to compensate Landlord for its damages.
13.202 Repossession and Re-Entry.
Upon the occurrence of a default by Tenant hereunder, Landlord may immediately terminate Tenant’s right of possession of the Premises (whereupon all obligations and liability of Landlord hereunder shall terminate), but not terminate this Lease, and, without notice, demand or liability, enter upon the Premises or any part thereof, take absolute possession of the same, expel or remove Tenant and any other person or entity who may be occupying the Premises and change the locks. If Landlord terminates Tenant’s possession of the Premises under this subsection 13.202, (a) Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to tender to Tenant a key for new locks installed in the Premises, (b) Tenant shall have no further right to possession of the Premises, and (c) Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to relet or attempt to relet the Premises (except as may be required by then applicable law). Landlord may, however, at its sole option relet the Premises or any part thereof for such terms and such rents as Landlord may in its sole discretion elect. If Landlord elects to relet the Premises, rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord (in such order as Landlord shall designate), second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting, including, without limitation, refurbishing costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees, advertising costs, brokerage fees and leasing commissions and third, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder (in such order as Landlord shall designate), and Tenant shall satisfy and pay to Landlord any deficiency upon demand therefor from time to time. Landlord shall not be responsible or liable for any failure to relet the Premises or any part thereof or for any failure to collect any rent due upon any such reletting. No such re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on Landlord’s part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such termination is given to Tenant pursuant to subsection 13.201 above. If Landlord relets the Premises, either before or after the termination of this
23
PRESCIENT APPLIED INTELLIGENCE, INC.
Office Lease - One Galleria Tower
Lease, all such rentals received from such lease shall be and remain the exclusive property of Landlord and Tenant shall not be, at any time, entitled to recover any such rental. Landlord may at any time after a reletting elect to terminate this Lease.
13.203 Cure of Default.
Upon the occurrence of a default hereunder by Tenant and after expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods, Landlord may enter upon the Premises and do whatever Tenant is obligated to do under the terms of this Lease, and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord on demand for any expenses which Landlord may incur in effecting compliance with Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
13.204 Continuing Obligations.
No repossession of or re-entering upon the Premises or any part thereof pursuant to subsection 13.202 or 13.203 above or otherwise and no reletting of the Premises or any part thereof pursuant to subsection 13.202 above shall relieve Tenant or any Guarantor of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive such repossession or re-entering. In the event of any such repossession of or re-entering upon the Premises or any part thereof by reason of the occurrence of a default, Tenant will continue to pay to Landlord Rent required to be paid by Tenant.
13.205 Cumulative Remedies; Landlord’s Duty of Mitigation.
No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy set forth herein or otherwise available to Landlord at law or in equity and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. In addition to the other remedies provided in this Lease and without limiting the preceding sentence, Landlord shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief in case of the violation, or attempted or threatened violation, of any of the covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to a decree compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord at law or in equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 13.2, Landlord agrees that to the extent required by applicable law, Landlord shall use its reasonable effort to relet the Premises after Tenant has vacated the Premise; however, both Landlord and Tenant further agree in this regard that Landlord shall have no obligation to agree to any lease terms which it deems to be unacceptable, nor shall Landlord be obligated (i) to travel outside a radius of thirty (30) miles from its principal office in order to meet with a prospective tenant, (ii) to accept a prospective tenant for the Premises (or any portion thereof) which is an existing or prospective tenant elsewhere in the Building or the Complex, or (iii) to expend monies for finish-out requested by a prospective tenant unless Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, approves both the lease terms and the credit of such prospective tenant.
SECTION 13.3 DEFAULTS BY LANDLORD.
Landlord shall be in default under this Lease if and only if Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder and said failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after Tenant delivers written notice thereof to Landlord (to each of the addresses required by this Section) and each mortgagee who has a lien against any portion of the Property and whose name and address has been provided to Tenant, provided that if such failure cannot reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall not be in default hereunder if the curative action is commenced within said thirty (30) day period and is thereafter diligently pursued until cured. In no event shall (a) Tenant claim a constructive or actual eviction or that the Premises have become unsuitable hereunder or (b) a constructive or actual eviction or breach of the implied warranty of suitability be deemed to have occurred under this Lease, prior to the expiration of the notice and cure periods provided under this Section 13.3. Any notice of a failure to perform by Landlord shall be sent to Landlord at the addresses and to the attention of the parties set forth in the Basic Lease Provisions. Any notice of a failure to perform by Landlord not sent to Landlord at all addresses and/or to the attention of all parties required under this Section and to each mortgagee who is entitled to notice or not sent in compliance with Article 14 below shall be of no force or effect.
SECTION 13.4 LANDLORD’S LIABILITY.
13.401 Tenant’s Rights in Respect of Landlord Default.
Tenant is granted no contractual right of termination by this Lease, except to the extent and only to the extent set forth in Articles 7 and 8 above. The liability of Landlord to Tenant for any breach or default under this Lease shall be limited to the interest of Landlord in the Property as the same may then be encumbered and Landlord shall not be

personally liability for any deficiency. If Landlord is found to be in default hereunder by reason of its failure to give a consent that it is required to give hereunder, Tenant’s sole remedy will be an action for specific performance or injunction. The foregoing sentence shall in no event be construed as mandatorily requiring Landlord to give consents under this Lease. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for consequential or special damages by reason of a failure to perform (or a default) by Landlord hereunder or otherwise. In no event shall Tenant have the right to levy execution against any property of Landlord other than its interest in the Property as hereinbefore expressly provided.
13.402 Certain Limitations on Landlord’s Liability.
UNLESS COVERED BY SUBSECTION 7.502 ABOVE OR CAUSED BY LANDLORD’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF LANDLORD’S AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES AND CONTRACTORS, AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7.4, LANDLORD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO TENANT FOR ANY CLAIMS, ACTIONS, DEMANDS, COSTS, EXPENSES, DAMAGE OR LIABILITY OF ANY KIND (a) arising out of the use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Premises by Tenant or any person therein or holding under Tenant or by or through the acts or omissions of any of their respective employees, officers, agents, invitees or contractors, (b) caused by or arising out of fire, explosion, falling sheet rock, gas, electricity, water, rain, snow or dampness, or leaks in any part of the Premises, (c) caused by or arising out of damage to the roof, pipes, appliances or plumbing works or any damage to or malfunction of heating, ventilation or air conditioning equipment, (d) caused by tenants or any persons either in the Premises or elsewhere in the Building (other than Common Areas) or by occupants of property adjacent to the Building or Common Areas or by the public or by the construction of any private, public or quasi-public work, or (e) caused by any act, neglect or negligence of Tenant. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any loss of or damage to property of Tenant or of others located in the Premises, the Building or any other part of the Property by reason of theft or burglary.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ALL ITS RIGHTS UNDER THE TEXAS DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICES - CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT, SECTION 17.41 ET SEQ. OF THE TEXAS BUSINESS AND COMMERCE CODE (THE “DTPA”), A LAW THAT GIVES CONSUMERS SPECIAL RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS.

Accordingly, each party’s rights and remedies with respect to the transactions contemplated under this lease, and with respect to all acts or practices of Landlord, past, present or future, in connection with such transactions, shall be governed by legal principles other than the DTPA. The foregoing waiver shall also be binding on any permitted assign or successor of either party under this Lease. The provisions of this Section shall survive any termination of this Lease.

Any capitalized term not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to it in the provisions of the Lease identified as the Basic Lease Provisions or Supplemental Lease Provisions, as applicable.
Rentable areas shown in the Basic Lease Provisions and the Riders which are a part of this Lease are agreed to be as shown regardless of minor variations resulting from actual construction. All other rentable area calculations shall be calculated in accordance with the remaining provisions of this Exhibit C.

The allocation of the square footage of the Common Areas shall be equal to the total square footage of the Common Areas on said floor multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable Area of the portion of the Premises (excluding the allocations of General Common Areas and Common Areas) located on said floor and the denominator of which is the total of all Rentable Area on said floor (excluding the allocations of General Common Areas and Common Areas).
2. “General Common Areas” shall mean the total square footage within (and measured from the midpoint of the walls enclosing or from the inside surface of the outer pane of glass enclosing, or extensions of the plane thereof in non-glass areas) the Building’s (a) elevator machine rooms, (b) main mechanical rooms, (c) loading dock facilities, (d) telephone switch rooms, (e) main electrical rooms, (f) public lobbies (including the main floor lobby and third floor lobby of the Building), (g) engineering, security, postal and cleaning areas, and (h) other areas not leased or held for lease within the Building but which are necessary or desirable for the proper utilization of the Building or to provide customary services to the Building. The allocation of the square footage of the General Common Areas referred to in this section shall be equal to the total square footage of the General Common Areas multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Rentable Area of the Premises (excluding the allocation of the General Common Areas) and the denominator of which is the total of all Rentable Area of space leased or held for lease as office space or retail space contained in the Building (excluding the allocation of the General Common Areas).
3. “Service Areas” shall mean the total square footage within vertical penetrations such as (and measured from the midpoint of the walls enclosing) Building stairs, elevator shafts, fire towers, flues, vents, stacks, vertical pipe shafts, and vertical ducts; however, structural columns are not included in Service Areas. Areas for the specific use of Tenant or other tenants of the Complex or installed at the request of Tenant or other tenants such as special stairs or elevators are not included within the definition of Service Areas.
4. “Rentable Area” shall mean the area or areas of space within the Building determined as follows:
(a) Multi-tenant Floors: In the case of a floor lease to more than one tenant (“a multi-tenant floor”), Rentable Area is determined by including the total square footage of all floor areas enclosed by the inside surface of the outer pane of glass and extensions of the plane thereof in non-glass areas and by demising walls (measured from the midpoint of demising walls), excluding only (1) Service Areas and (2) General Common Areas, plus an allocation of the square footage of the Common Areas and the General Common Areas.
(b) Single-tenant Floors: In the case of a floor leased to a single tenant (“single-tenant floor”), Rentable Area is determined by measuring from the inside surface of the outer pane of glass and extensions of the plane thereof in non-glass areas to the inside surface of the opposite outer pane of glass and extensions of the plane thereof in non-glass areas and shall include all areas enclosed by such surfaces, excluding only Service Areas and General Common Areas, plus an allocation of the square footage of the General Common Areas.

This Work Letter (“Work Letter”) describes and specifies the rights and obligations of Landlord and Tenant with respect to certain allowances granted to Tenant hereunder and rights and responsibilities of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the design, construction and payment for the completion of the Initial Improvements within the Premises.
1. Definitions. Terms which are defined in the Lease shall have the same meaning in this Work Letter. Additionally, as used in this Work Letter, the following terms (when delineated with initial capital letters) shall have the respective meaning indicated for each as follows:
(a) “Allowance” shall mean a sum not to exceed $24,661.00. The Allowance shall be available to Tenant during the Term for the construction of improvements, including, but not limited to, the Initial Improvements, in the Premises.
(b) “Basic Construction” of the Building shall mean the structure of the Building as built on the date of this Work Letter and all other improvements, fixtures and facilities constituting a part of the Project.
(c) “Landlord’s Architect” shall mean the architect designated by Landlord as its architect, from time to time, to perform the functions of Landlord’s Architect hereunder.
(d) “Plans and Specifications” shall mean collectively, the plans, specifications and other information prepared or to be prepared by Landlord’s Architect and, where necessary, by Landlord’s electrical, mechanical and structural engineers, all at Tenant’s expense, which shall detail the Work required by Tenant in the Premises and which shall be approved in writing by both Tenant and Landlord prior to the commencement of such Work. Tenant may apply a portion of the Allowance towards the cost of the Plans and Specifications.
(e) “Tenant’s Architect” intentionally deleted.
(f) “Work” shall mean all materials and labor to be added to the Basic Construction of the Building in order to complete the installation of the Initial Improvements within the Premises for Tenant in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, including, without limitation any modification to Basic Construction of the Building, any structural modifications to the Building, any electrical or plumbing work required to meet Tenant’s electrical and plumbing requirements, and any special air conditioning work required to be performed in the Premises.
(g) “Cost of the Work” shall mean the cost of all materials and labor to be added to the Basic Construction of the Building in order to complete the installation of the Initial Improvements within the Premises in accordance with the Plans and Specifications.
(h) “Landlord’s Costs” shall mean that portion of the Cost of the Work up to, but not in excess of, the aggregate amount of the Allowance.
(i) “Tenant’s Costs” shall mean that portion of the Cost of the Work in excess of Landlord’s Costs.
(j) “Change Costs” shall mean all costs or expenses attributable to any change in the Plans and Specifications which, when added to other costs and expenses incurred in completing the Work, exceed Landlord’s Costs, including, without limitation, (i) any cost caused by direction of Tenant to omit any item of Work contained in the Plans and Specifications, (ii) any additional architectural or engineering services, (iii) any changes to materials in the process of fabrication, (iv) the cancellation or modification of supply or fabricating contracts, (v) the removal or alteration of any Work or any plans completed or in process, or (vi) delays affecting the schedule of the Work. A “Change Order” is the document signed by both Landlord and Tenant which addresses Change Costs.
D-1
(k) “Working Days” shall mean all days of the week other than Saturday, Sunday, and legal holidays.
(l) “Initial Improvements” shall mean all Work added to the Building before or near the Commencement Date of the Lease.
2. Procedure and Schedules for the Completion of Plans and Specifications. The Plans and Specifications shall be completed in accordance with the following procedure and time schedules:
(A) Completion of Plans and Specifications. All Plans and Specifications shall be prepared in strict compliance with all applicable statutes, codes, ordinances and other regulations, applicable Building standards and requirements as set forth in the Lease, this Work Letter and otherwise, and shall also adhere to the design drawings approved by Landlord.
(i) If Landlord constructs Tenant’s Improvements based on any special requirements or improvements required by Tenant, or upon information furnished by Tenant that later proves to be inaccurate or incomplete resulting in any violation of any applicable statute, code, ordinance and other regulation, Tenant shall be solely liable to correct such violations and to bring the improvements into compliance with such applicable statutes, codes, ordinances and other regulations as promptly as is practicable. No approval by Landlord of the Plans and Specifications or any revisions to them will constitute a representation or warranty by Landlord as to the adequacy or sufficiency of such plans, or the improvements to which they relate, for any use, purpose or condition, but such approval will merely be the consent of Landlord to the construction or installation of improvements in the Premises according to such plans.
(ii) Upon completion of the Initial Improvements, if so required by Landlord, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an “as-built” set of Plans and Specifications for the Premises, together with such other information required by Landlord to place the information from the “as-built” Plans and Specifications on to Landlord’s data base; the cost of providing the “as-built” Plans and Specifications and other information, together with Landlord’s cost to place the information on to Landlord’s data base, shall be borne solely by Tenant.
3. Pricing. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the Cost of the Work. Tenant shall either approve such Cost of the Work in writing or cause the Plans and Specifications to be revised and resubmitted, on or before the date which is three (3) Working Days from receipt of such revised Plans and Specifications.
4. Payments. Tenant shall pay the aggregate amount of Tenant’s Costs to Landlord upon demand. Landlord shall determine the percentage of the Cost of the Work which is allocable to Landlord and the percentage of the Cost of the Work which is allocable to Tenant. Landlord shall also revise its determination of such percentages based on any changes in the Cost of the Work due to change orders affecting the Plans and Specifications. Within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice from Landlord which identifies that portion of the Cost of the Work to be incurred, respectively, by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the percentage of the Cost of the Work allocable to Tenant, as Tenant’s Costs, as determined by Landlord from time to time. Landlord’s obligation for payment with respect to the Work shall not exceed the aggregate amount of Landlord’s Costs; and after Landlord has paid Landlord’s Costs, Tenant shall thereafter pay all Cost of the Work as and when invoiced to Tenant by Landlord, including, without limitation, any Change Costs. The amounts payable to Landlord hereunder shall constitute Rent due pursuant to the Lease, and failure to make any such payment when due shall constitute a default under the Lease, entitling Landlord to exercise any or all of its remedies hereunder, as well as all remedies otherwise available to Landlord. Any cost savings achieved after completion of the Work shall be solely the property of Landlord, not Tenant.
5. Performance of Work and Delays. Landlord shall cause the Contractor to perform the Work in a good and workmanlike manner that is free of defects and substantially in accordance with the Plans and Specifications. In that regard, Landlord shall perform as construction manager for the construction of the Initial Improvements in accordance
D-2
with the Plans and Specifications; and the Cost of the Work shall include a management fee payable to Landlord in the amount of three percent (3%) of the cost of the materials and labor constituting the Work. If a delay shall occur in the completion of the Work by Landlord as the probable result of (i) any failure to furnish when due Tenant’s design drawings, Tenant’s electrical, mechanical and/or structural requirements, Tenant’s Plans and Specifications or any revision to any such documents, (ii) any change by Tenant in any of the Plans and Specifications, (iii) any state of facts which gives rise to a change referred to in the definition of Change Costs or any changes resulting in a Change Cost, (iv) the fact that materials to be incorporated into the Work which are non-Building grade require a lead time (not due to Landlord default or error) to obtain or construction time to perform, in excess of that required for Work which is Building grade, as determined by Landlord, or (v) any other act or omission of Tenant, its agents or employees, including any violation of the provisions of the Lease or any delay in giving authorizations or approvals pursuant to this Work Letter, then any such delay shall not justify any extension of the Commencement Date of the Lease. All contractors and subcontractors shall schedule time periods with Landlord during which they may use Building facilities in connection with the Work (e.g., elevators, excess electricity, etc.).
6. Change Orders. All changes and modifications in the Work from that contemplated in the Plans and Specifications, whether or not such change or modification gives rise to a Change Cost, must be evidenced by a written Change Order executed by both Landlord and Tenant. In that regard, Tenant shall submit to Landlord such information as Landlord shall require with respect to any Change Order requested by Tenant. After receipt of requested Change Order, together with such information as Landlord shall require with respect thereto, Landlord shall return to Tenant either the executed Change Order, which will evidence Landlord’s approval thereof, or the Plans and Specifications with respect thereto with Landlord’s suggested modification.
7. Punchlist. Within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice specifying any details of construction, decoration or mechanical adjustment which remain to be performed by Landlord with respect to any Work; and except for the details contained in such written notice from Tenant, all obligations of Landlord in regard to the Work shall be deemed to have been satisfied. Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises to complete any such unfinished details, and entry by Landlord, its agents, servants, employees or contractors for such purpose shall not relieve Tenant of any of its obligations under the Lease or impose any liability on Landlord or its agents, servants, employees or contractors.
8. Whole Agreement; No Oral Modification. This Work Letter embodies all representations, warranties and agreements of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the matter described herein, and this Work Letter may not be altered or modified except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties.
9. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings contained in this Work Letter are for convenient reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of such paragraphs.
10. Notices. All notices required or contemplated hereunder shall be given to the parties in the manner specified for giving notices under the Lease.
11. Binding Effect. This Work Letter shall be construed under the laws of the State of Texas and shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
12. Conflict. In the event of conflict between this Work Letter and any other exhibits or addenda to this Lease, this Work Letter shall prevail.

If Landlord fails or is unable to provide parking in the Garage or adjacent Garage (in the event of overflow) in connection with one or more parking permits issued to Tenant because of damage, construction or condemnation, such failure or inability shall never be deemed to be a default by Landlord as to permit Tenant to terminate the Lease, either in whole or in part, but Tenant’s obligation to pay the fee for the affected parking permit shall be abated for so long as Tenant does not have the intended use of such permit and such abatement shall constitute full settlement of all claims that Tenant might otherwise have against Landlord by reason of such failure or inability to provide Tenant with such parking availability.
8. Rules and Regulations. A condition of any parking shall be compliance by the xxxxxx with Garage rules and regulations, including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord.

Landlord may refuse to permit any person who violates the rules to park in the Garage and any violation of the rules shall subject the car to removal at the car owner’s expense.

If Tenant gives timely notice of exercise of the Termination Right but fails to timely pay the Termination Fee to Landlord when due, Landlord may at its option either (i) deem the Termination Right waived and of no further force and effect or (ii) enforce the termination of this Lease, effective as of the Termination Date, and Tenant’s obligation to pay the Termination Fee. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
