RENEWAL OPTION
PLANO ATRIUM, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and PRIORITY
FULFILLMENT SERVICES, INC. (“Tenant”), entered into that certain Tenth Amendment to Office Lease
(the “Amendment”) dated as of August ___, 2006, for the lease of certain space at Atrium at
Xxxxxx Xxxxx located in Plano County, Texas. This Exhibit D (this “Exhibit”) is attached to
the Amendment. Except to the extent otherwise indicated herein, the initially capitalized terms
used in this Exhibit shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Amendment. Landlord and Tenant
mutually agree as follows:
1. Tenant shall have the right to renew and extend the Lease Term with respect to the Premises
then subject to the Lease for the Extension Term (as hereinafter defined) upon and subject to the
following terms and conditions.
2. Tenant shall have two (2) options (the “Renewal Option”) to extend the Lease Term
beyond the 2007 Renewal Term Expiration Date (such date and the last day of each Extension Term, if
any, being herein referred to as a “Scheduled Expiration Date”) for a period (the
“Extension Term”) of five (5) years, commencing upon the then-current Scheduled Expiration
Date upon the same terms and conditions previously applicable, except for the grant of the
exercised Renewal Option and the amount of Base Rental payable under the Lease (which amount shall
be determined as set forth below). Not earlier than twelve (12) months or later than nine (9)
months prior to the expiration of the 2007 Renewal Term, Tenant shall have the right to deliver to
Landlord written notice (a “Notice of Intent to Renew”) of Tenant’s intent to extend the
2007 Renewal Term on the terms and conditions set forth herein. In such event, Landlord shall,
within ninety (90) days after its receipt of a Notice of Intent to Renew, notify Tenant in writing
of the Fair Market Value Rate (as defined in Paragraph 5 below) as determined by Landlord for
Premises during the Extension Term (such determination is herein referred to as the
(“Landlord’s Assessment”). Landlord’s Assessment shall reflect the fact that Landlord will
provide to Tenant in connection with Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option a refurbishment
allowance (the “Refurbishment Allowance”) in an amount equal to $7.00 per usable square
foot of space then comprising the Premises. Tenant shall have the right, within fifteen (15) days
after its receipt of written notice of the Landlord’s Assessment, to either (i) accept in writing
such Landlord’s Assessment and exercise the Renewal Option (the “Notice of Exercise”), or
(ii) reject such Landlord’s Assessment but nevertheless elect to exercise the applicable Renewal
Option by, in either instance, delivering written notice thereof to Landlord within such fifteen
(15) day period; provided, however, that the Renewal Option may be validly exercised only if no
uncured Tenant default exists as of the date of exercise. If Tenant timely delivers to Landlord
written notice that Tenant is exercising the Renewal Option but that Tenant does not accept
Landlord’s Assessment (“Tenant’s Objection Notice”), the Fair Market Value Rate shall be
determined as provided in Paragraph 6 below. Tenant’s Objection Notice must identify Tenant’s
determination of the Fair Market Value Rate (“Tenant’s Assessment”) to trigger the
appraisal process set forth in Paragraph 6 below.
3. If Tenant does not either timely (i) accept Landlord’s Assessment, or (ii) deliver to
Landlord Tenant’s Objection Notice, Tenant will be deemed to have elected to not exercise the
Renewal Option. In no event shall Landlord have any obligation to provide Tenant with the
Refurbishment Allowance in the event Tenant elects not to exercise of the renewal option or is
deemed to have elected not to exercise the Renewal Option. The Extension Term shall commence
immediately upon the expiration of the 2007 Renewal Term, and upon Tenant’s exercise of the renewal
option set forth in this Exhibit, the date of expiration of the 2007 Renewal Term shall
automatically become the last day of the Extension Term.
4. The exercise by Tenant of the Renewal Option must be made, if at all, by written notice,
(i.e., the Notice of Exercise or Tenant’s Objection Notice, as applicable) executed by Tenant and
delivered to Landlord within the fifteen (15) day period set forth in preceding paragraph. Once
Tenant shall exercise the Renewal Option, Tenant may not thereafter revoke such exercise. Tenant’s
failure, for any reason whatsoever, to exercise the Renewal Option in
strict accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit shall conclusively be deemed a waiver of
the same.
5. Base Rental for the Extension Term shall be equal to 100% of either (y) the product of the
Landlord’s Assessment received by Tenant prior to Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option
multiplied by the number of rentable square feet of space then comprising the Premises if Tenant
has accepted such Landlord’s Assessment, or (z) if Tenant has timely delivered to Landlord Tenant’s
Objection Notice in which Tenant’s Assessments has been identified, the product of the Fair Market
Value Rate determined as provided in Paragraph 6 below multiplied by the number of rentable square
feet of space comprising the Premises. As used herein, the term “Fair Market Value Rate”
shall mean the base rent payable during the applicable lease period to a willing landlord by a
willing tenant (neither having a compulsion to lease and Landlord having sufficient time to locate
a replacement tenant), for the lease of non-sublease, non equity and renewal space in an office
building comparable in quality to the Building, which space is of like size to the Premises, of
like and comparable quality to the Premises, and which comparable office building is located in the
Richardson/ Plano Telecom Corridor (as hereinafter defined), taking into consideration the terms of
the Lease (including, without limitation, the available parking being make available to Tenant)
and, as applicable, the following: (1) the location and floor level within the Building; (2) the
condition of the existing improvements in the Premises and the premises covered by such renewed
leases; (3) parking charges or the inclusion of the same in rental; (4) the extent of services to
be provided by Landlord to Tenant and such renewal tenants; (5) the base year or dollar amount, if
any, for escalation purposes; (6) credit rating and financial condition and stature of such renewal
tenants as of the date of the exercise of the applicable lease renewal, and the credit rating and
financial condition and stature of Tenant as of the date of the Landlord’s Assessment; (7) the
length of the lease renewal; (8) whether any broker’s commission is payable; (9) the date on which
the Extension Term will commence; and (10) any other appropriate term or condition.
Notwithstanding and foregoing, in calculating the Fair Market Value Rate, no consideration shall be
given to (i) any period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable property, and
(ii) any portion of leasehold improvement allowances in excess of the Refurbishment Allowance. As
used herein, the term “Richardson/Plano Telecom Corridor” shall mean the area located
within portions of the Cities of Richardson and Plano, Texas generally recognized by real estate
professionals as the “Telecom Corridor”.
6. If Tenant timely delivers to Landlord Tenant’s Objection Notice in which Tenant’s
Assessment has been identified, Landlord shall have the right to accept Tenant’s Assessment, by
giving Tenant written notice thereof within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of
Tenant’s Objection Notice. If Landlord chooses not to accept Tenant’s Assessment, then Landlord and
Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such ten (10) business day period,
jointly appoint an independent real estate broker or other person with at least ten (10) years’
commercial real estate experience in Dallas, Texas (an “Appraiser”) to determine the Fair
Market Value Rate. If the parties as unable to agree upon an Appraiser within such fifteen (15)
day period, either party may request that the Dallas office of the American Arbitration
Association designate within ten (10) days of such request, a broker with at least ten (10) years’
commercial real estate experience in Dallas, Texas to be the Appraiser for the purposes of this
subparagraph; provided, however in no event shall such designated Appraiser be employed, or have
been employed, by either Landlord or Tenant or their respective affiliates; and provided further,
however, that such broker must also have experience with lease transactions in the Richardson/
Plano Telecom Corridor. Such designation shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. Within ten (10)
business days after the selection of an Appraiser, each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to the
Appraiser such party’s assessment of the Fair Market Value Rate (revised, if applicable, from any
earlier assessment), together with such supporting data used to make such assessment (each such
assessment is herein referred to as an “Assessment”). Within fifteen (15) days after the
Appraiser’s receipt Landlord’s and Tenant’s respective Assessments of the Fair Market Value Rate
and the aforementioned supporting data, the Appraiser shall determine his or her assessment of the
Fair Market Value Rate for the Extension Term and shall provide Landlord and Tenant with written
notice thereof together with such supporting data used to make such assessment). The Fair Market
Value Rate for the Extension Term shall be the Assessment of either Landlord or Tenant which is
closest to the Appraiser’s assessment of the Fair Market Value Rate; provided, however, if either
Landlord or Tenant fails within such ten (10) business day period to supply the Appraiser with such
party’s assessment of the Fair Market Value Rate and/or the applicable supporting data, then the
Fair
Market Value Rate for the Extension Term shall be the Fair Market Value Rate submitted to the
Appraiser by the party that has submitted to the Appraiser its assessment of the Fair Market Value
Rate and the applicable supporting data. The entire cost for the Appraiser’s services shall be
borne equally by Landlord and Tenant.
7. Except as set forth in this Exhibit, the leasing of the Premises for the Extension Term
shall be upon the same terms and conditions as are applicable for the Premises under the Lease for
the term thereof as extended by the Amendment, and shall be upon and subject to all of the
provisions of the Lease and the Amendment. Additionally, the Refurbishment Allowance will paid to
Tenant in the same manner as the refurbishment allowances described in the third paragraph of the
Rider No. 102 attached to the Lease and will only be used for the same work described in such
paragraph. Any portion of the Refurbishment Allowance not used by Tenant on or before the twelfth
(12th) full calendar month of the Extension Term will be forfeited by Tenant and Landlord shall
have no further obligation to disburse the same to Tenant notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this exhibit.
8. Once Fair Market Value Rate for the Extension Term has been established following a valid
exercise by Tenant of the Renewal Option, Landlord and Tenant will, within fifteen (15) days
thereafter, enter into an amendment (the “Lease Amendment”) to the Lease reflecting (i) the
extension of the 2007 Renewal Term, (ii) any change in Base Rental payable by Tenant as provided by
this Exhibit, (iii) any change in the Base Year operation expenses, and (iv) such other amendments
to the Lease as are necessary. Notwithstanding Landlord’s and Tenant’s obligation to execute and
deliver the Lease Amendment within the time period provided above, Tenant’s leasing of the Premises
during the Extension Term is not conditioned on any such execution and delivery as the Lease
Amendment is being executed merely to memorialize the terms and conditions of Tenant’s leasing of
the Premises during the Extension Term pursuant to this Exhibit after Landlord’s receipt of the
Notice of Exercise or Tenant’s Objection Notice, as applicable.
9. Tenant’s rights under this Exhibit shall terminate following the occurrence of any of the
following events: (a) Tenant’s right to possess all or any of the Premises is terminated; (b)
Tenant assigns any of its interest in the Lease or sublets any portion of the Premises located on
the 5th floor of the Building; and/or (c) any termination of the Lease.

conditions contained in the applicable ROFR Statement. If Landlord does not lease the Offered Space
to such prospective tenant, upon such terms within 180 days of Tenant’s election (or deemed

portion of the ROFR Space (all of the foregoing rights and/or options are herein collectively
called the “Existing Rights of Tenants”). Landlord’s obligation to lease to Tenant all or any
portion of the ROFR Space is contingent upon none of the Existing Rights of Tenants applicable to
