RECITALS
A. Pursuant to that certain Lease, dated as of December 18, 2000, by and between Landlord and
Tenant (the “Original Lease”), as amended by that certain First Amendment to Lease, dated November
29, 2001 (the “First Amendment”), that certain Second Amendment to Lease, dated April 14, 2003 (the

premises (the “Existing Premises”) located at 00 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx (the
“Project”) and more particularly described in the Lease.
B. Tenant desires to expand the Existing Premises demised under the Lease by adding 11,689

D. Landlord is willing to lease the New Expansion Space to Tenant on the terms herein set
forth. Landlord and Tenant now desire to amend the Lease to, among other things, expand the
Existing Premises to include the Fourth Expansion Space and to include the Fifth Expansion Space
upon expiration or earlier termination of the Geomet Lease and to establish the terms and
conditions associated with Tenant’s leasing of the New Expansion Space.
AGREEMENT
Now, therefore, the parties hereto agree that the Lease is amended as follows:
1. Premises.
(a) Fourth Expansion Space. Effective as of the date hereof, the Existing Premises
demised under the Lease shall be deemed expanded to include the Fourth Expansion Space, consisting
for all purposes of the Lease of 6,117 rentable square feet, as such Fourth Expansion Space is
described on Exhibit A-1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The rentable
square feet of the Fourth Expansion Space was measured by Xxxxxxxx, Inc. in accordance with the
1996 Standard Method of Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings as adopted by the Building Owners
and Managers Association (ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-1996) (“BOMA”). Included with the Fourth Expansion
Space, Tenant shall have the exclusive use of the existing stand alone generator and existing HVAC
system which service the Fourth Expansion Space (collectively, the “Existing Generator and HVAC
System”). Tenant shall, at its expense, maintain the Existing Generator and HVAC System, and for
the remainder of the Extension Term, obtain and maintain at all times, a monthly service contract
in form and contact satisfactory to Landlord for the Existing Generator and HVAC System (the
“Service Contract”). On or before August 10th, 2006, Tenant shall submit a proposed
Service Contract for Landlord’s review and approval. Landlord shall notify Tenant within five (5)
days of receipt of such proposal whether or not the proposed Service Contract is acceptable. If
Landlord rejects such proposed Service Contract, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days following
Landlord’s rejection, submit a new proposed Service Contract for Landlord’s review and approval,
and such process shall continue within the same time frames until Tenant submits to Landlord an
acceptable Service Contract. In the event Tenant desires to terminate an existing Service
Contract, prior to any such termination, Tenant shall submit to Landlord for its review and
approval, a new proposed Service Contract.
(b) Fifth Expansion Space. Effective immediately upon the earlier of (i) the
expiration of the Geomet Lease or (ii) the termination of the Geomet Lease in accordance with its
terms (the “Fifth Expansion Commencement Date”), the Existing Premises demised under the Lease
shall be deemed expanded to include the Fifth Expansion Space, consisting for all purposes of the
Lease of 5,572 rentable square feet, as such Fifth Expansion Space is described on Exhibit A-2
attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The rentable square feet of the Fifth
Expansion Space was measured by Xxxxxxxx, Inc. in accordance with BOMA. Upon Landlord’s request,
which may be made at any time following the Fifth Expansion Commencement Date, Tenant shall execute
and deliver to Landlord a written acknowledgment of the Fifth Expansion Commencement Date in the
form of the "Acknowledgment of Fifth Expansion Commencement Date" attached to this Fifth Amendment
as Exhibit B.
(c) Definition of Premises. The Existing Premises, as expanded to include the Fourth
Expansion Space, shall be comprised of 40,877, in the aggregate. From and after the Fifth

Space and the Existing Generator and HVAC System in their condition as of the date hereof, subject
to all applicable Legal Requirements. Landlord shall have no obligation for any defects in either
the Fourth Expansion Space and/or the Existing Generator and HVAC System. Tenant’s taking
possession of the Fourth Expansion Space is conclusive evidence that Tenant
2
accepts the Fourth Expansion Space in as-is condition and is conclusive evidence that the
Existing Generator and HVAC System are in good, working condition. Tenant acknowledges that
neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to
the condition of all or any portion of either the Fourth Expansion Space or the Existing Generator
and HVAC System.
Tenant is currently in possession of the Fifth Expansion Space and upon the Fifth Expansion
Commencement Date, Tenant shall accept the Fifth Expansion Space in its then current condition,
subject to all applicable Legal Requirements. Landlord shall have no obligation for any defects
in the Fifth Expansion Space and Tenant’s continued possession of the Fifth Expansion Space shall
be conclusive evidence that Tenant accepts the Fifth Expansion Space in as-is condition. Upon the
expiration of the Extension Term or earlier termination of Tenant’s rights and possession for the
Fifth Expansion Space, Tenant shall surrender the Fifth Expansion Space in accordance with the
terms and conditions set forth in Section 28 of the Lease. Landlord recognizes and
acknowledges that prior to Tenant’s taking possession of the Fifth Expansion Space, Geomet caused
the Fifth Expansion Space to be decommissioned in accordance with the terms of the Geomet Lease.

Modifications shall be included within the term “Alterations” (as defined in Section 12 of
the Lease), and Tenant shall comply with the terms and conditions of Section 12 of the
Lease in constructing and completing the Office Space Modifications, provided, however, that
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease (including Section 28), upon

required to restore the Modified Area to the condition which existed immediately prior to the
Office Space Modifications.
