4. Base Year. Commencing on the Effective Date, the Base Year (as defined in Section 1.1(i) of the
Lease) shall be calendar year 2010.
5. Refurbishment Allowance. Commencing on the Amendment Date, Landlord shall provide a
refurbishment allowance (the “Refurbishment Allowance”) to Tenant in the amount of One Hundred
Thirty-Nine Thousand One Hundred Thirty-Two and No/100 Dollars ($139,132.00) to reimburse Tenant
for the costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the refurbishment of the Premises (the
“Refurbishment”). Tenant shall be responsible for the performance of the Refurbishment. Tenant will
prepare any necessary
plans and specifications for each phase of the Refurbishment (the “Refurbishment Plans”) and submit
the same to Landlord for review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed. Within five (5) business days following Landlord’s receipt of the
Refurbishment Plans, Landlord will provide Tenant its approval or disapproval. Landlord and Tenant
will exchange the Refurbishment Plans pursuant to the aforementioned time-table and process until
the Refurbishment Plans are agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Thereafter, Tenant shall use
reasonable speed and diligence to substantially complete the applicable phase of the Refurbishment
in accordance with the Refurbishment Plans, the terms of the Lease and all applicable laws and
regulations. The Refurbishment Allowance shall be payable to Tenant by Landlord only after the
completion of the applicable phase of the Refurbishment in accordance with the Refurbishment Plans
and upon the submission by Tenant to Landlord on or before December 31, 2011 of third party
invoices paid by Tenant in connection with the applicable phase of the Refurbishment; provided,
however, that no portion of the Refurbishment Allowance shall be used to reimburse Tenant for the
costs of fixtures, furniture or other personal property. The cost of the Refurbishment shall
include, without limitation, all reasonable and customary costs and expenses incurred by Landlord
pertaining to each phase of the Refurbishment and a construction management fee to Landlord of 4.4%
of the total cost of each phase of the Refurbishment. Tenant hereby expressly agrees that Tenant
shall be responsible for any and all Refurbishment costs in excess of the Refurbishment Allowance.
In the event that the full amount of the Refurbishment Allowance is not utilized on or before
December 31, 2011, the difference between the amount of the Refurbishment Allowance actually
utilized prior to such date and the full amount of the Refurbishment Allowance shall be forfeited
by Tenant.
6. Renewal Option. Tenant shall, provided the Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not
in default under any of the other terms and conditions of the Lease at the time of notification or
commencement, have one (1) option to renew the Lease for a term of five (5) years, for the portion
of the Premises being leased by Tenant as of the date the renewal term is to commence, on the same
terms and conditions set forth in the Lease, except as modified by the terms, covenants and
conditions as set forth below:
(a) If Tenant elects to exercise said option, then Tenant shall provide Landlord with written
notice no earlier than the date which is two hundred ten (210) days prior to the expiration of the
then current term of the Lease but no later than the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days
prior to the expiration of the then current term of this Lease. If Tenant fails to provide such
notice, Tenant shall have no further or additional right to extend or renew the term of the Lease.
(b) The Annual Rent and Monthly Installment in effect at the expiration of the then current term of
the Lease shall be increased to reflect the current fair market rental for comparable space in the
Building and in other similar buildings in the same rental market as of the date the renewal term
is to commence, taking into account the specific provisions of the Lease which will remain constant.
Landlord shall advise Tenant of the new Annual Rent and Monthly Installment for the Premises no
later than sixty (60) days after receipt of Tenant’s written request therefor. Said request shall
be made no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the first date on which Tenant may exercise its
option under this Paragraph. Said notification of the new Annual Rent may include a provision for
its escalation to provide for a change in fair market rental between the time of notification and
the commencement of the renewal term. In no event shall the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment for
any option period be less than the Annual Rent and Monthly Installment in the preceding period.
(c) This option is not transferable; the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they intend that
the aforesaid option to renew the Lease shall be “personal” to Tenant as set forth above and that
in no event will any assignee or sublessee have any rights to exercise the aforesaid option to
renew.
7. Right of First Refusal. Notwithstanding anything in Section 10 of the Fifth Amendment to Lease
to the contrary, in the event Tenant exercises its option to lease the Refusal Space pursuant to
the terms of said Section 10 on or before April 30, 2013, the Refusal Space shall be leased on an
“as is” basis and Landlord shall have no obligation to
-2-
improve the Refusal Space; provided, however, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a tenant
improvement allowance of $25.00 per rentable square foot of the Refusal Space, prorated on a
monthly basis to reflect the remaining Lease Term for the Refusal Space.
8. Notices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, all notices required
or desired to be given with respect to the Lease may also be delivered by a nationally recognized
overnight delivery service providing proof of delivery, with proper postage prepaid and properly
addressed to the party. Any such notice or demand shall be effective and deemed delivered on the
date of deposit with the overnight delivery service; provided that the period of time in which a
response to a notice delivered via overnight delivery must be given or taken shall run from the
date of receipt as indicated on the receipt or other proof of delivery.
9. Landlord’s Notice Address. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease,

shall be unassigned and shall be leased at the posted monthly rental rates in effect therefor from
time to time. Landlord and Tenant agree and Tenant acknowledges that rates for spaces in the
parking facilities of the Tower Place Complex may vary according to the location of spaces in the

acknowledges and agrees feat Landlord may designate certain spaces within the parking
-3-
facilities of the Tower Place Complex as reserved or assigned spaces for the benefit of Landlord,
visitors to the project or tenants therein, other tenants, couriers and delivery services and other
persons. Tenant shall comply and cause its employees to complete and sign the Tower Place Parking
Application. Tenant must comply with all rules and regulations established by Landlord and/or the
operator of the parking facilities as provided in the Tower Place Parking Rules and Regulations,
including, without limitation, any card, sticker, window transmitter or other identification
system, whether now or hereafter in effect, and agrees to pay to Landlord a non-refundable fee at
the rate then in effect for each parking card, sticker, window transmitter or other identifier
issued, including, without limitation, replacements. All parking privileges granted pursuant to
this Section 8.27 are non-assignable and nontransferable by Tenant; provided however, that parking
privileges may be assigned or transferred by Tenant in conjunction with a transfer, assignment or
subletting allowed by Article V of this Lease.
11. Limitation of Liability. REDRESS FOR ANY CLAIM AGAINST LANDLORD UNDER THIS AMENDMENT AND THE
LEASE SHALL BE LIMITED TO AND ENFORCEABLE ONLY AGAINST AND TO THE EXTENT OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN
THE BUILDING. THE OBLIGATIONS OF LANDLORD UNDER THIS AMENDMENT AND THE LEASE ARE NOT INTENDED TO BE
AND SHALL NOT BE PERSONALLY BINDING ON, NOR SHALL ANY RESORT BE HAD TO THE PRIVATE PROPERTIES OF,
ANY OF ITS OR ITS INVESTMENT MANAGER’S TRUSTEES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, PARTNERS, BENEFICIARIES,

HEREUNDER FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, DAMAGE TO BUSINESS, OR ANY FORM OF SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
12. Tenant’s Authority.
(a) If Tenant signs as a corporation, partnership, trust or other legal entity each of the persons
executing this Amendment on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant has been and is
qualified to do business in the state in which the Building is located, that the entity has full
right and authority to enter into this Amendment, and that all persons signing on behalf of the
entity were authorized to do so by appropriate actions. Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord,
simultaneously with the delivery of this Amendment, a corporate resolution, proof of due
authorization by partners, opinion of counsel or other appropriate documentation reasonably
acceptable to Landlord evidencing the due authorization of Tenant to enter into this Amendment.
(b) Tenant hereby represents and warrants that neither Tenant, nor any persons or entities holding
any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever in Tenant, are (i) the target of any sanctions program

13. Indemnification. None of the Landlord Entities shall be liable and Tenant hereby waives all
claims against them for any damage to any property or any injury to any person in or about the
Premises or the Building by or from any cause whatsoever (including without limiting the foregoing,
rain or water leakage of any character from the roof, windows, walls, basement, pipes, plumbing
works or appliances, the Building not being in good condition or repair, gas, fire, oil,
electricity or theft), except to the extent caused by or arising from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors. Tenant shall protect,
indemnify and hold the Landlord Entities harmless from and against any and all loss, claims,
liability or costs (including court costs and attorney’s fees) incurred by reason of (a) any damage

-4-
(including but not limited to property of any Landlord Entity) or any injury (including but not
limited to death) to any person occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Building to the
extent that such injury or damage shall be caused by or arise from any actual or alleged act,
neglect, fault, or omission by or of Tenant or any Tenant entity to meet any standards imposed by
any duty with respect to the injury or damage; (b) the conduct or management of any work or thing
whatsoever done by the Tenant in or about the Premises or from transactions of the Tenant
concerning the Premises; (c) Tenant’s failure to comply with any and all governmental laws,
ordinances and regulations applicable to the condition or use of the Premises or its occupancy; or
(d) any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on

divulge the existence, contents or provisions of this Amendment to anyone without the written
consent of Landlord, except in Tenant’s dealings with its financial or professional advisors or
with any litigation or arbitration proceedings, in response to any governmental request or as
otherwise required by law. A breach of this covenant of confidentiality shall be a material breach
of the Lease and an immediate Event of Default pursuant to Article VI of the Lease, without notice
or opportunity to cure, subjecting Tenant to any and all of Landlord’s rights and remedies
available in the event of non-payment of rent, whether under the Lease, this Amendment, and/or at
law or in equity. This covenant of confidentiality shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease or Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises.
