5. Improvements.
A. Landlord hereby grants Tenant (i) a total allowance equal to $20.00 per square foot of Net Rentable Area of the First Expansion Premises (“Tenant’s First Expansion Allowance”), and (ii) a total allowance equal to $16.50 per square foot of Net Rentable Area of the Second Expansion Premises (“Tenant’s Second Expansion Allowance”) to be used towards the payment of any and all hard and soft costs incurred by or on behalf of Tenant in connection with the construction, installation and/or modification of the leasehold improvements to be completed in the First Expansion Premises and Second Expansion Premises, respectively, including, but not limited to, architectural fees, mechanical, electrical and preliminary design fees and construction management fees. In addition to Tenant’s First Expansion Allowance and Tenant’s Second Expansion Allowance (collectively, “Tenant’s Allowance”), Landlord hereby grants Tenant an additional allowance up to a total of $5.00 per square foot of Net Rentable Area of the Expansion Premises (the “Additional Allowance”) to be used towards the payment of additional costs incurred by Tenant solely in connection with the construction, installation and/or modification of the leasehold improvements to be completed in the First Expansion Premises which exceed Tenant’s First Expansion Allowance, which Additional Allowance shall be funded pursuant to Paragraph 5B below.

4
remain the property of Landlord. Landlord shall have no obligation to fund any portion of the Additional Allowance unless and until the entire amount of Tenant’s First Expansion Allowance has been funded in accordance with this Xxxxxxxxx 0X. Xxxxxxxx shall pay portions of Tenant’s Allowance and the Additional Allowance (once Tenant’s First Expansion Allowance has been fully funded) from time to time within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of a request for funding of a portion of Tenant’s Allowance or the Additional Allowance, as applicable, together with lien releases and waivers, invoices detailing the costs of improvements requested by Tenant and such other documentation as Landlord may reasonably require for the costs of leasehold improvements to be reimbursed by Tenant’s request of a portion of Tenant’s Allowance or the Additional Allowance, as applicable.
C. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease or this Amendment to the contrary, the full amount of the Additional Allowance utilized for the payment of additional costs incurred by Tenant solely in connection with the construction, installation and/or modification of the leasehold improvements to be completed in the First Expansion Premises and funded by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 5B above shall be added to the Base Rent due and payable by Tenant under the Lease for the entire Premises and amortized on a straight-line basis (based upon an interest rate of ten percent (10%) per annum) over the Term beginning on the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date and continuing through the Expiration Date. Tenant shall have no right to request or apply the funding of any portion of Tenant’s Allowance (or the Additional Allowance with respect to the First Expansion Premises only) allocated to one (1) portion of the Expansion Premises to any portion of Tenant’s Allowance (or the Additional Allowance with respect to the First Expansion Premises only) allocated to any other portion of the Expansion Premises.
D. The leasehold improvements to be completed in the Expansion Premises shall be constructed and installed in accordance with plans and specifications, cost allocations and other requirements (collectively, the “Plans”) mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall not be allowed to construct or install any portion of such leasehold improvements unless and until Landlord and Tenant have mutually agreed upon the Plans therefor. Landlord shall not be obligated to make, and Tenant shall not be authorized to make, any additional improvements or alterations to the Expansion Premises except as contemplated in this Amendment or as provided in, and in accordance with, the Lease.
6. Security Deposit. On or before the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an additional $1,000,000.00 letter of credit (to supplement the existing $500,000.00 letter of credit (collectively, the “Security Deposit”)) issued by a national banking association and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. The term “Security Deposit” as used in the Lease and this Amendment shall refer to the Security Deposit defined in this Paragraph 6 for all purposes. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date and on each anniversary of the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date thereafter, then the Security Deposit shall be reduced by $375,000.00 per year beginning on the fourth (4th) anniversary of the First Expansion Premises Commencement Date and continuing annually thereafter until the Security Deposit is reduced to $0.00.
7. Lease Provisions.
A. Rider No. 2 (Extension Option) is hereby deleted from the Lease in its entirety.

Tenant hereby consents to the leasing of the Intel Space to Intel, and hereby further agrees to subordinate its Right of First Opportunity and Right of First Refusal with respect to such Intel Space to the right of Intel to lease such Intel Space from Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the lease between Landlord and Intel for the Intel Space is not consummated, then Tenant’s Right of First Opportunity and Right of First Refusal with respect to the Intel Space shall immediately cease to be subordinate to the right of Intel to lease such Intel Space, and Tenant shall thereafter have all of its rights with respect to such Right of First Opportunity and Right of First Refusal with respect to the Intel Space, under the same conditions as if Tenant’s Right of First Opportunity and Right of First Refusal had never been waived.
8. Extension Option. Commencing on the date of the execution of this Amendment by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to extend the Term of the Lease with respect to the Premises pursuant to the terms and conditions of the extension option set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof.

10. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Texas.

EXHIBIT B
Extension Option
Tenant shall have the right to extend the term of the Lease following the Expiration Date (as extended) (the “Original Term”) for one (1) period of five (5) years (the “Extension Term”), upon and subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. If Tenant so elects to extend the Original Term for the Extension Term, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord not later than ten (10) months prior to the expiration of the Original Term. Upon receipt of such written notice by Landlord, Landlord and Tenant shall follow the procedure set forth in Paragraph 2 of this Exhibit B. If Landlord and Tenant agree upon the Fair Market Value Rate, or if the Fair Market Value Rate is decided by the procedures set forth in Paragraph 2 of this Exhibit B, the Lease, subject to the provisions of this Exhibit B, shall be automatically extended for the Extension Term with the same force and effect as if the Extension Term had been originally included in the Original Term, upon the same terms and conditions as in the Lease, except that (a) the Base Rent shall be as set forth in Paragraph 4 below, and (b) the terms of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, relating to any leasehold improvements, shall be of no force or effect and Tenant shall be deemed to accept the Premises in its “as is” condition, unless Landlord and Tenant mutually agree upon an improvement or refurbishment allowance.
2. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s written notice of Tenant’s election to extend, Landlord shall advise Tenant of the applicable Fair Market Value Rate for the Premises for the Extension Term. Tenant, within thirty (30) days after the date on which Landlord advises Tenant of the applicable Fair Market Value Rate for the Extension Term, shall either (i) give Landlord final binding written notice (“Binding Notice”) of Tenant’s exercise of its option, or (ii) if Tenant disagrees with Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Value Rate, provide Landlord with written notice of rejection (the “Rejection Notice”) which notice shall include the rate which Tenant believes is the Fair Market Value Rate. If Tenant fails to provide Landlord with either a Binding Notice or Rejection Notice within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant’s extension option shall be null and void and of no further force and effect. If Tenant provides Landlord with a Binding Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into the Renewal Amendment (as hereinafter defined) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. If Tenant provides Landlord with a Rejection Notice, then within five (5) business days of receipt of the Rejection Notice, Landlord shall submit to Tenant the names of three qualified real estate brokers. Within five (5) business days of receipt of the names of the qualified real estate brokers, Tenant will select one of the three brokers. The broker selected by Tenant shall select either Landlord’s rate or Tenant’s rate and that rate shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value Rate for the purposes of this Exhibit B. In order to be “qualified,” each of the three brokers submitted by Landlord to Tenant shall have at least ten (10) years of leasing experience in commercial leases in the suburban office market of Austin, Texas.
3. Tenant’s right to extend the Original Term for the Extension Term, at Landlord’s sole option, shall be of no force or effect if either at the time of exercise of the extension option, or at the time of commencement of the Extension Term, either (a) Tenant (as opposed to any assignee or subtenant other than an assignee or subtenant permitted under Section 8.03 of the Lease) is not in occupancy of eighty percent (80%) of the entire Premises leased from time to time pursuant to the Lease, as amended by this Amendment, or (b) an Event of Default, or any event which with the giving of notice, the passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default if uncured, has occurred and is outstanding under this Lease.
4. Base Rent for the Premises for the Extension Term shall be an amount equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the Fair Market Value Rate (as determined by the procedure set forth in Paragraph 2
B-1
of this Exhibit B), multiplied by the Net Rentable Area of the Premises. For purposes hereof the “Fair Market Value Rate” means the arms length fair market annual rental rate per square foot of Net Rentable Area of the Premises (taking into account the “as is” condition of the Premises, all rent concessions and inducements), for a comparable lease term to comparable tenants for space of comparable size in comparable buildings with comparable quality of finish out in the Austin, Texas suburban area.
5. Upon the exercise by Tenant of its option in respect of the Extension Term, the term “Term”, as otherwise defined and used in the Lease, shall mean the Term, as extended for the Extension Term, and the term “Expiration Date”, as otherwise defined and used in the Lease, shall mean the date of expiration of the Extension Term. If Tenant is entitled to and properly exercises its extension option, Landlord shall prepare an amendment (the “Renewal Amendment”) to reflect changes in the Base Rent, Term of the Lease, Expiration Date and other appropriate terms. The Renewal Amendment shall be sent to Tenant within a reasonable time after receipt of the Binding Notice.
6. Any termination, cancellation or surrender of the Lease shall terminate any right of extension for the Extension Term in respect of the portion of the Premises as to which this Lease is terminated, canceled or surrendered.
7. Time shall be of the essence with respect to the exercise by Tenant of its option under this Exhibit B.
