EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
reasonably determined by Landlord); (b) be adequate, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, for the preparation of Plans and Specifications for the Tenant Improvements; (c) show, in reasonable detail, the layout of walls and doors, room identifications and locations for millwork and appearance of the finishing materials (to the extent available at the point in the design process, otherwise such finish materials shall be included with the Plans and Specifications) to be used in connection with installing the Tenant Improvements; (d) contain such other additional design information, conceptual or otherwise, that is not customarily considered Space Plan information but may be preliminary, schematic or design development concepts to the extent and as available at this time (which may occur by meeting with Landlord to review the Space Plan); (e) contain such preliminary pricing information as is available at the time. All Space Plan drawings must be not less than 1/8" scale. Landlord has provided all information regarding Building Standard materials, systems and capacities prior to the mutual execution and delivery of this Lease.

Landlord and Tenant shall work in good faith to reach agreement on the Space Plan to resolve any disagreements between Landlord and Tenant that are necessary to achieve final approval of such Space Plan.
3. Plans and Specifications. On or before December 15, 2012, Tenant will cause to prepared and delivered to Landlord Plans and Specifications for the Tenant Improvements (the "Plans and Specifications") that are in conformity with the approved Space Plan for the that portion of the Expansion Space as to which the Lease will commence on the 2/2013 Commencement Date (and the timing for submittal of the Plans and Specifications for the balance of the Expansion Space, if any, will be as set forth in Exhibit "D" to the Original Lease for the Tenant Improvements for Phase II). Tenant acknowledges that the 2/2013 Commencement Date shall not be delayed as a result of the delivery date of the Plans and Specifications which may cause Substantial Completion to occur beyond the 2/2013 Commencement Date.

Landlord will approve or disapprove (specifically describing any reasons for disapproval) the Plans and
EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
Specifications in writing within five (5) Business Days after receiving them and agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold, condition (except as set forth herein) or delay such approval. If Landlord disapproves the Plans and Specifications, Tenant will provide appropriately revised Plans and Specifications to Landlord for approval (or disapproval) within ten (10) days on the same basis as set forth above.

If Tenant specifies any long lead time items that would delay Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord will promptly notify Tenant and Tenant will cooperate with Landlord to select a reasonable substitute. Landlord's failure to respond within the subject approval periods shall be deemed to constitute approval of the Space Plans and/or Plans and Specifications, respectively, as submitted. Any Landlord changes must be reasonably specific and accompanied by a statement of the specific reasons for each required change. Landlord may only require changes to the Plans and Specifications that are (a) reasonably necessary to conform the Plans and Specifications to the Space Plans, or (b) are within Landlord's approval rights set forth in Section 7 below. If changes are so required, Landlord and Tenant will cooperate in good faith to agree on the extent and nature of the changes and Tenant's Architect and engineers shall make the required changes within three (3) Business Days after receipt of the notice described in Section 2.B above in the case of the Space Plans and this Section 3 in case of the Plans and Specifications, respectively.

All subcontracted work (except for fire alarm, sprinkler work, Building automation system(s) connections, Building roof work and work associated with existing warranties) will be competitively bid by a minimum of three (3) qualified subcontractors in each trade of work. Tenant will have the right, but not the obligation, to attend contractor interviews, review or prepare the invitation to bid (with Landlord's reasonable approval), review the bid documents, and be present at the bid opening. Tenant and Landlord will mutually agree on the selection of the Contractor to be the general contractor for the Tenant Improvements. Upon selection of the Contractor, Landlord will enter into a construction contract with the Contractor to perform the Work and making advances to Contractor from the Improvement Allowance (unless Tenant elects to hire its own project manager to manage the construction, as outlined below, and in that case, Tenant will enter into a construction contract with the Contractor to perform the Work and make advances to Contractor. Tenant will submit invoices, check copies and lien releases for reimbursement from Improvement Allowance). Landlord shall not be liable for any defects in the Tenant Improvements, cost overruns by Contractor or delays in the completion of the Tenant Improvements (other than to the extent caused by a Landlord Delay). Tenant will pay all costs of preparing the Space Plans, construction document preparation, negotiation of the construction contract with the Contractor, design, Plans and Specifications as well as all direct and indirect costs Landlord incurs in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements subject to the application of the Improvement Allowance. Such costs Landlord incurs may include, without limitation, all costs of general conditions, labor, materials, and other
EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT

Tenant will notify Landlord in writing no later than November 15, 2012, if Tenant elects to have Landlord's construction manager, Xxxxx Interests, manage the construction of the Tenant Improvements; it being understood that Tenant may determine to manage or hire its own project manager for the construction of the Tenant Improvements for the Expansion Space, in which event the fee described below shall be reduced to one percent (1%); and agrees that such construction manager shall receive a fee for such services in an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the hard costs of construction. Such construction management services shall include, without limitation, the following: (a) preparing budgets and advising Tenant on costs and building conditions affecting cost and schedule; (b) reviewing Tenant's plans and specifications for comment and approval; (c) arrange for and attend contractor pre-construction interviews for selection of bidders; (d) in collaboration with Tenant's representative, receive/analyze/summarize contractors bids/proposals and make firm selection recommendation; (e) recommend cost and time saving adjustments to meet budget and schedule objectives, (f) attend weekly construction meetings and arrange for documenting progress; (g) coordinate Building access and operations with that of the Tenant Improvements and Tenant's contractors and vendors; (h) provide regular construction cost updates (construction cost summaries and accounting against the allowance, including final accounting) to Tenant including submitting and processing construction cost change orders to Tenant for approval; (i) arrange for preparation of schedules including regular updates; (j) identify Substantial Completion and provide for the timely identification and completion of punch list items; and (k) arrange for the delivery of close-out documentation including electronic as-built plans, certificate of occupancy, operation and maintenance manuals, warranties, final waivers and release of liens.

With the exception of core drilling and excessive noise activities, construction of the Tenant Improvements will be conducted during Normal Business Hours. Access to the Building loading dock and vertical transportation shall be available to Contractor 24/7 at no additional cost. Contractor will coordinate with the Building's property manager to obtain reasonable access to floors contiguous to the Premises for the purpose of installing floor outlets, water lines, taps, drains, etc., to the Premises.

EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
5. Improvement Allowance.
A. If Tenant exercises the Option, Tenant shall have the right, at its option, to allocate the aggregate Improvement Allowance among the Tenant Improvements to be constructed on the 12th Floor and the 13th Floor in any way it desires, but in no event exceeding $36 per square foot of Rentable Space on the 12th Floor or on the 13th Floor. No portion of the Improvement Allowance may be used to pay costs or expenses related to any portion of the Premises other than the Expansion Space.
B. Landlord will credit an amount, not to exceed the Improvement Allowance, against Tenant's obligation to pay for the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord is not obligated to pay or incur any amounts that exceed the Improvement Allowance. If Landlord reasonably estimates that the cost of the Tenant Improvements will exceed the Improvement Allowance, Landlord may require Tenant to deposit fifty percent (50%) such excess with Landlord before Landlord enters into the construction contract with the Contractor or commences the Work and the remaining fifty percent (50%) of such excess upon receipt of the first invoice from the Contractor. In no event will Landlord have any obligation to pay for any costs of the Tenant Improvements in excess of the Improvement Allowance or to perform any work in the Premises that is not expressly contemplated by this Lease.
C. Tenant shall have the right to apply up to $8.50 per square foot of Rentable Area in the Premises to pay for various soft costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the Tenant Improvements such as, by way of example but not limitation, costs of preparation of the Space Plan and the Plans and Specifications, architectural and MEP fees, and moving costs. In addition, the Improvement Allowance may be applied by Tenant to pay for wiring and cabling costs, security systems, audio visual system, signage, hard construction costs, permitting and construction management fees. Furniture, fixtures and equipment and/or cubicles shall not be paid for with the Improvement Allowance.
D If Tenant has not submitted all required paperwork and applied all of the Improvement Allowance by December 31, 2014, Tenant shall forfeit the remaining balance and will not have any right to offset or reduce the Base Rental. In no event shall Landlord be obligated to pay any of the Improvement Allowance after December 31, 2014.
6. Changes to Plans and Specifications. Tenant will immediately notify Landlord if Tenant desires to make any changes to the Tenant Improvements after Tenant has approved the Plans and Specifications. If Landlord approves the revisions, Landlord will notify Tenant of the anticipated additional cost and delay in completing the Tenant Improvements that would be caused by such revisions, provided, however, if any of such changes actually reduces such cost or time, such reduction shall be netted against any increases to cost or delay in time (of any other changes) to determine the extent of any actual net additional cost or delay. Tenant will approve or disapprove of any increased cost and delay within five (5) Business Days after such notice. If Tenant approves, Landlord will prepare, and Landlord and Tenant will execute, a change order
EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
describing the revisions and the anticipated net additional cost and delay, if any. Any net delay relating to a request for revisions or a change order shall be a Tenant Delay. If Landlord reasonably estimates that the change order will cause the cost of the Tenant Improvements to exceed the Improvement Allowance (or if the cost of the Tenant Improvements already exceeds the Improvement Allowance), Landlord may require Tenant to deposit such estimated additional cost with Landlord before the change order work is performed.
7. Landlord's Approval Rights. Landlord may withhold its approval of any Space Plan, Plans and Specifications, change orders, or other work requested by Tenant which Landlord reasonably determines may require work which: (a) exceeds or adversely affects the structural integrity of the Building; (b) adversely affects, or exceeds Tenant's pro rata capacity of, any part of the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, communication or other systems of the Building; (c) will increase the cost of operation or maintenance of any of the systems of the Property; (d) does not conform to applicable building codes or is not approved by any governmental authority with jurisdiction over the Premises; (e) is not a Building Standard item or an item of equal or higher quality (other than any de minimus variations); (f) may detrimentally affect the uniform appearance of the Property; or (g) is reasonably disapproved by Landlord.
8. Tenant's Representative. Tenant designates Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx as the representative of Tenant having authority to approve the Plans and Specifications, request or approve any change order, give and receive all notices, consents, approvals and directions regarding the Tenant Improvements, and to otherwise act for and bind Tenant in all matters relating to the Tenant Improvements.
9. Tenant Access Prior to Substantial Completion. Landlord will allow Tenant limited access to the Expansion Space where the Work is being performed prior to Substantial Completion to begin installing equipment, fixtures, furniture and cabling and/or to properly coordinate such work with the construction of such Tenant Improvements so long as Tenant gives Landlord reasonable advance written notice of its desire for such access. Any such access will be subject to Landlord's prior consent in each instance (or as may be reflected in the construction schedule and/or agreed upon at construction meetings), which consent will not be unreasonably withheld but may be conditioned on Tenant's work not interfering with the construction of the Tenant Improvements or Tenant coordinating its access and work with the Contractor. Any such use of the Expansion Space is also subject to, and Tenant must comply with and observe, all applicable Laws, all safety rules and procedures, the Rules and Regulations and all other terms and conditions of this Lease; provided, however, (a) no Rent shall be due in respect of such access and (b) in no event may Tenant conduct business in the Premises during such early access period. Tenant covenants and agrees to exercise its rights of access prior to Substantial Completion provided for in this Section 9 in a manner that will not interfere with, delay or disrupt the Contractor's performance of the Work.
10. Punch List. Not later than Substantial Completion, Landlord, Tenant and Tenant's Architect will inspect the Premises and develop a "punch list" of any Tenant Improvement items which were either not properly completed or are in need of repair. The Contractor shall be responsible to complete (or repair, as the case may be) the items listed on the punch list with commercially reasonable diligence and speed. If Tenant does not inspect the Premises with
EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
Landlord as reasonably requested by Landlord prior to or upon Substantial Completion, Tenant will be deemed to have accepted the Premises as delivered, subject to any punch list items noted by Landlord, all of which punch list items shall be completed as soon as reasonably possible. For the purposes hereof "punch list" items shall mean those which are minor, cosmetic in nature, do not prevent Tenant from occupying the Premises for the operation of its business and can be addressed easily and promptly following Substantial Completion.
11. Tenant Finish Work. All finish work and decoration and other work desired by Tenant and not included within the Tenant Improvements to be performed by Landlord as set forth in the approved Plans and Specifications (including specifically, without limitation, the design and installation of all computer systems, telephone systems, telecommunications systems, removable fixtures, furnishings, and equipment) will be designed, furnished and installed by Tenant at Tenant's sole expense and will not be chargeable against the Improvement Allowance; provided, however, the Tenant Allowance may be applied to contain mechanical, electrical, and plumbing equipment such as the UPS, supplemental HVAC units and all additional power equipment as set forth in the Plans and Specifications as and once approved by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant will perform all such work in the same manner and following the same procedures as are provided in this Lease for Alterations. Landlord is under no obligation to perform, inspect, or supervise any such work, and Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility whatsoever therefor.
12. Signs. Subject to Tenant's options under Section 10 of the Lease, Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, will install and/or provide to Tenant the signage contemplated by Section 10 of the Lease.
13. Building Services During design, Construction and Move In. Other than for HVAC services during other than Normal Business Hours, Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any charges for the use of Building services including, without limitation, loading dock, parking, freight elevators, electricity, HVAC and water, and Landlord shall provide a reasonable amount of free, unreserved parking spaces in a location to be designated by Landlord for Tenant and Tenant's design and construction related agents including, without limitation, Tenant's Architect and project manager, the Contractor, and subcontractors, in each case, during the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements or during Tenant's move into the Expansion Space.
14. Liens and Claims. Tenant will keep the Property and the Complex free from any mechanics', materialmen's, designers' or other liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Tenant. Tenant will upon request record and post notices of non-responsibility or such similar protective notices as Landlord may reasonably request. If any such liens are filed and Tenant, within fifteen (15) days after such filing, does not release the same of record or provide Landlord with a bond or other surety satisfactory to Landlord protecting Landlord and the Property and the Complex against such liens, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based upon such breach by Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligation under the Lease, cause such liens to be released by any means Landlord deems proper, including, but not limited to, paying the claim giving rise to the lien or posting security to cause the discharge of the lien. In such event, Tenant will reimburse Landlord, as Rent, for all amounts Landlord pays (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs). To the fullest
EXHIBIT D – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AGREEMENT
extent allowable under the Laws, Tenant releases and will indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Landlord) and hold harmless the Landlord Related Parties and the Property and the Complex from and against any Claims in any manner relating to or arising out of the Tenant Improvements, any of the Work or any other work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant or any person or entity claiming by, through or under Tenant.

EXHIBIT "H-1"
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
Tenant shall have a right of first refusal to lease the remaining vacant space on the twelfth (12th) Floor of the Building (the "ROFR Floor") that is not part of the Expansion Space and after the date that the Option is either timely exercised or lapses as set forth in Section 1 (a) of the First Amendment (if the Option is not timely exercised and lapses, the ROFR will be limited to 16,000 square feet of Rentable Area on the twelfth 12th Floor) on the following terms:
A. If Landlord receives a bona fide written offer to lease space in the Building that includes space on the ROFR Floor (the space covered by such offer is herein referred to as the "ROFR Space") that Landlord desires to accept, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such offer and the terms thereof (each an "Offer Notice"). If Landlord receives a bona fide written offer to lease space in the Building that exceeds 35,000 square feet of Rentable Area and includes space on the ROFR Floor, then Landlord shall not be required to notify Tenant of such offer.
B. If Landlord gives Tenant an Offer Notice, Tenant shall have the right to lease the ROFR Space upon the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Offer Notice. Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant elects to lease the ROFR Space upon the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Offer Notice within seven (7) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the applicable Offer Notice. If the ROFR Space identified in the Offer Notice includes any space in the Building in addition to space on an ROFR Floor, Tenant must elect to lease the entire ROFR Space and not just the space on the ROFR Floor. If the space identified in the Offer Notice is less than all of the space on a ROFR Floor, Tenant must elect to lease only the space identified in the Offer Notice. If Tenant timely elects to lease the ROFR Space, then Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease, effective as of the date such ROFR Space is to be included in the Premises, on the same terms contained in the Offer Notice except that (a) the rentable area of the Premises shall be increased by the rentable area in the ROFR Space (and Tenant's Share shall be adjusted accordingly) on the commencement date in the Offer Notice, (b) the Base Rental shall be increased by the amount specified for such space in the applicable Offer Notice commencing on the date payments of rental would commence in the Offer Notice, (c) Tenant shall only be entitled to allowances (e.g., moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other tenant inducements to the extent set forth in the applicable Offer Notice, and (d) the Base Year for ROFR Space shall be the calendar year in which Tenant commences its occupation or is required to commence its occupation of the ROFR Space. If Tenant fails to timely exercise its right hereunder, then such right shall lapse as to the ROFR Space covered by the applicable Offer Notice, time being of the essence with respect to the exercise thereof, and Landlord may lease the ROFR Space to the third party submitting the applicable offer on the terms set forth in the applicable Offer Notice. If Landlord fails to lease such ROFR Space to such third party on terms that are within ten percent (10%) economically of the terms contained in the Offer Notice within one hundred eighty (180) days after Tenant's receipt of the applicable Offer Notice, Landlord may not lease the same space on the ROFR Space to such third party or another third party without first complying with the requirements of this Paragraph B.
EXHIBIT H-1 – RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
C. If Tenant timely elects to lease the ROFR Space, Landlord will have the right to review the then current financial condition of Tenant and will have the right to require Tenant to increase the amount of the Security Deposit and terms of the Security Deposit, such amount of increase and terms to be determined in Landlord's sole discretion.
