1.07 Renewal; Expansion.

Tenant has the right to extend the term of the Lease for two additional terms (the “Option Term(s)”) of five (5) years beyond the Term (or first Option Term) upon the same terms as the Lease (except that there will be no further privilege of extension beyond the second Option Term) at Base Rent equal to the greater of (a) the Base Rent upon expiration of this Lease or (b) 95% of the then prevailing rent (“Fair Market Value”) for similar single story buildings within a two mile radius of the Property (the “Market Area”) taking into consideration expense reimbursements, use, location, size of space, leasehold improvements provided, quality, age and location of the building, financial status of tenant, rental concessions, other inducements, and the contract date, provided:

(a) Tenant notifies Landlord of its election to exercise such right at least six (6) months and no more than eighteen (18) months prior to the expiration of the Lease Term or first Option Term;

(b) at the time of the exercise of such right, there is no existing uncured Default of which Landlord has given notice and which Tenant has not remedied to Landlord’s satisfaction within the time limits in the Lease;

(c) at the time of the exercise of such right, there has not been collectively during Lease Term more than three (3) notices by Landlord of Default and/or Tenant checks payable to Landlord which were returned by Tenant bank due to insufficient funds;

(d) that the Lease has not terminated; and

(e) that Tenant (as distinguished from a subtenant or assignee of the Lease) remains in possession of the Premises.

Following Tenant’s exercise of the Option Term, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt in good faith to determine the Fair Market Value. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on a Fair Market Value, either party may declare an impasse and notify the other party of a negotiating deadline (“Deadline”) which shall be thirty (30) days from the notification date. Prior to the Deadline, Landlord and Tenant shall each prepare a proposal of Fair Market Value accompanied by all documentary evidence that the parties determine is relevant to their respective proposal. Landlord and Tenant shall present their proposal to the other party by the Deadline. Within five (5) business days following the deadline, Landlord and Tenant shall meet and once more attempt in good faith to determine the Fair Market Value. If Landlord and Tenant are still unable to agree on a Fair Market Value, either party may notify the other party of its decision to employ an arbitrator and recommend an arbitrator who shall be an MAI appraiser, active during the then prior five (5) year period, and having appraised similar properties in the Market Area. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree to employ the recommended arbitrator, either Landlord or Tenant may petition the North Texas Chapter of the Appraisal Institute to appoint a qualified MAI appraiser and both Landlord and Tenant shall accept that appointment. Landlord and Tenant shall each provide their proposal for Fair Market Value to the appointed arbitrator who shall review the proposals and any other information the arbitrator deems relevant. The

determination of the arbitrator shall be limited solely to the fact of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Value proposal is closer to the actual Fair Market Value in the opinion of the arbitrator and the arbitrator shall report that to both Landlord and Tenant and that proposal shall determine the Fair Market Value for the Option Term. The arbitrator’s fee shall be paid by the party, Landlord or Tenant, whose proposal is farther from the actual Fair Market Value.

Tenant has the on-going right to expand the Leased Premises via a right of first refusal on any contiguous space that becomes vacant during the Term. Landlord shall notify Tenant of such space and the terms under which Landlord is prepared to lease the space to an unrelated third party. Upon receipt of such Landlord notice, Tenant shall have five (5) business days to notify Landlord it elects to lease the contiguous space. Tenant may elect to make such expansion coterminous with Tenant’s Term, in which event Landlord may adjust prorata any offered inducements or allowances to reflect differential between third party lease term and Tenant’s remaining lease term. If Tenant remaining lease term is then less than two years, Tenant must either extend its lease term and adjust its economic terms to coincide with the lease term and economic terms offered to the third party or waive its right of first refusal. If Tenant waives this right of first refusal, or does not respond to Landlord notice within five (5) business days, Landlord may lease the contiguous space to any third party with no further notice to or consent from Tenant during a six month period beginning with date of Landlord notice.

In the event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly payments

made by Tenant exceeds the amount of Additional Rent due by Tenant under this section, the accounting shall reflect a credit against Base Rent and other charges due hereunder. In the event the accounting shows that the total of the monthly payments made by Tenant is less than the amount of Additional Rent due by Tenant under this section, the account shall be accompanied by an invoice for the Additional Rent, and if in the last year of the Term, be accompanied by a refund. Tenant shall have the right to engage an independent Certified Public Accountant or a qualified employee of Tenant at Tenant expense to conduct an audit of Landlord’s computations of Additional Rent due under this section. If the audit concludes that Landlord has misstated Operating Expenses, Landlord shall correct the amount of Additional Rent.

If this Lease shall terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the amount of any Additional Rent payable by Tenant applicable to the year in which such termination shall occur shall be prorated on the ratio that the number of days from the commencement of the calendar year to and including the termination date bears to 365. Tenant agrees to pay any Additional Rent due under this section within ten (10) days following receipt of the invoice or accounting showing Additional Rent due.

Landlord shall not be required, however, to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Leased Premises by Tenant or on behalf of Tenant as a part of Tenant finish out. If the Leased Premises are to be rebuilt or repaired and are untenantable in whole or in part following the damage, and the damage or destruction was not caused or contributed to by act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees or those for whom Tenant is responsible, the Base Rent payable under this Lease during the period for which the Leased Premises are untenantable shall be adjusted to such an extent as may be fair and reasonable under the circumstances. In the event that Landlord fails to complete the necessary repairs or rebuilding within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of written notification by Tenant to Landlord of the destruction, Tenant may at its option and as its sole remedy terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord, whereupon all rights and obligations under this Lease shall cease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed

of trust covering the Building and/or the Property requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement is made, and all rights and obligations under this Lease shall then cease.

7.03 Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord shall at all times during the Term maintain adequate fire and extended coverage insurance, insuring the Building and/or the Property; provided, however, Landlord shall not be obligated in any way or manner to insure any personal property of Tenant upon or within the Leased Premises, any fixtures (whether installed or paid for by Tenant or Landlord) upon or within the Leased Premises, or any improvements to the Leased Premises (whether installed or paid for by Tenant or Landlord). Tenant shall have no right in or claim to the proceeds of any policy of insurance maintained by Landlord even though the cost of such insurance is borne by Tenant as set forth in Article 2.00. Landlord may satisfy at any time all or part of the requirements of this Section 7.03 by means of self-insurance. The use of self-insurance by Landlord shall not affect Tenant’s obligation to pay its proportionate share of the cost of Landlord’s insurance, and the amount of that share shall be based on what Landlord would pay if Landlord purchased such insurance.

7.04 Tenant’s Insurance:

(a) Tenant shall provide and maintain a Broad Form Commercial Liability Policy of insurance with respect to the Leased Premises with coverage limits of at least One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence, combined single limit, naming Landlord, Landlord’s managing agent, and any designee of Landlord as additional insureds. Such policy shall protect Landlord, its managing agent, and any designee of Landlord against any liability which arises from any occurrence on or about the Leased Premises or which results in any claims, suits, proceedings, actions, causes of action, responsibility, liability, demands, judgments and executions, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (collectively, “Claims”).

(b) Tenant shall carry fire and all-risk coverage, vandalism and malicious mischief insurance covering all the improvements (whether existing or installed by Tenant or Landlord), stock in trade, fixtures, furniture, furnishings, removable floor coverings, trade equipment, signs and all other decorations in the Leased Premises for one hundred percent (100%) of their full replacement cost. In the event of casualty loss hereunder, the proceeds of such insurance shall be applied solely to the replacement, restoration and refurbishment of such damaged items.

(c) If Tenant uses steam boilers for heating and/or installs or maintains air conditioning equipment in excess of 30 HP, Tenant shall provide Boiler and Machinery Insurance with a Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) per accident limit including broad form coverage endorsement and repair or replacement endorsement. The policy shall name Landlord as an additional insured.

(d) Tenant shall also carry adequate worker’s compensation insurance in no less than statutorily required amounts, covering its employees in the Leased Premises containing a waiver of subrogation in favor of Landlord, and Tenant hereby indemnifies, agrees to hold harmless, and at Landlord’s option defend, Landlord from and against all claims arising out of any loss suffered by any employee of Tenant at the Building and/or the Property which would have been or is covered by an appropriate worker’s compensation insurance policy.

(e) On or before Tenant enters the Leased Premises for any reason, and again before any insurance policy expires, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an original certificate of insurance.

(f) All insurance policies required to be carried under this Lease by or on behalf of Tenant shall provide (and any certificate evidencing the existence of any insurance policies, shall certify) that unless Landlord is given ten (10) days’ written notice: (i) the insurance shall not be canceled, (ii) the insurer shall renew the insurance policies, and (iii) no material change may be made in the insurance policies.

(g) If Tenant fails to comply with any of the Insurance Requirements stated in this Lease, Landlord may obtain such insurance and keep the same in effect and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the premium cost thereof upon demand.

(h) All policies of insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease shall (i) be written by good and solvent insurance companies satisfactory to Landlord, (ii) contain a Cross Liability endorsement, and (3) contain a provision stating “the insurance provided Landlord hereunder shall be primary and non-contributing with any other insurance available to, or carried by, Landlord.”

(i) Vendors to Tenant providing services on the Property shall be required by Tenant to comply with this Article 7.04.

7.05 Waiver of Subrogation. Anything in this Lease to the contrary notwithstanding, each party hereby waives any and every right or cause of action for the events which occur or accrue during the Term for any and all loss of, or damage to, any of its property (whether or not such loss or damage is caused by the fault or negligence of the other party or anyone for whom said other party may be responsible), which loss or damage is covered by valid and collectible fire, extended coverage, “All Risk” or similar policies covering real property, personal property or business interruption insurance policies, to the extent that such loss or damage is recovered under said insurance policies. Said waivers shall be in addition to, and not in limitation or derogation of, any other waiver or release contained in this Lease with respect to any loss or damage to property of the parties hereto. Written notice of the terms of such mutual waivers shall be given to each insurance carrier and the insurance policies shall be properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation of coverage by reason of said waivers.

7.06 Hold Harmless. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant’s employees, agents, invitees, licensees or visitors, or to any other person, for an injury to person or damage to

property on or about the Leased Premises under express or implied invitation by Tenant, or caused by the improvements located on the Leased Premises becoming out of repair, the failure or cessation of any service provided by Landlord (including security service and devises), or resulting from water, electricity, gas, oil or steam, or the lack thereof, or the bursting, stoppage, leakage of pipes or water, snow or ice being upon or coming through the roof, stairs, walks, drains or any other place in the Leased Premises, the Building and/or the Property or from any other cause whatsoever. All personal property and improvements in the Leased Premises, of whatever nature, whether owned, leased or installed by Landlord, Tenant or any other person, shall be and remain at Tenant’s sole risk. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord of and from any loss, attorney’s fees, expenses or claims arising out of any such damage or injury. Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord’s employees, agents, invitees, licensees, or visitors for an injury to person or damage to property on or about the Leased Premises under express or implied invitation by Landlord.

Article 8.00 CONDEMNATION

8.01 Substantial Taking. If all or a substantial part of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain or by purchase in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate and the Base Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of the Term effective on the date physical possession is taken by the condemning authority. Tenant shall have no claim to the condemnation award or proceeds in lieu thereof.

8.02 Partial Taking. If a portion of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use under any governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent or by purchase in lieu thereof, and this Lease not terminated as provided in Section 8.01 above, Landlord may terminate this Lease (whether or not the Leased Premises are affected thereby) by giving written notice thereof to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the right of election accrues, in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such portion of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property is taken by the condemning authority. If upon any such taking or sale of less than the whole or substantially the whole of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Property, this Lease shall not be thus terminated, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be diminished by an amount representing that part of the Base Rent properly allocable to the portion so taken or sold, and Landlord shall, at Landlord’s sole expense, restore and reconstruct the Building and/or the Property and the Leased Premises to their former condition to the extent feasible, but such work shall not exceed the scope of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing the Building and the Leased Premises, nor shall Landlord be required to spend for such work an amount in excess of the condemnation award or proceeds in lieu thereof, and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claim to any such compensation.

Article 9.00 ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLEASE

9.01 Landlord Assignment. Landlord shall have the right to sell, transfer or assign, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations under this Lease, in the Building and in the Property. Any such sale, transfer or assignment shall operate to release Landlord from any and all

liabilities under this Lease arising after the date of such sale, assignment or transfer provided that the buyer, assignee, or transferee assumes such liabilities under this Lease.

9.02 Tenant Assignment. Tenant may assign the Lease or sublease all or any portion of the Leased Premises to any parent company, subsidiary, affiliate, or a successor entity of Tenant with a net worth equal to or greater than $15 million without Landlord consent however Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of such assignment. Tenant shall not assign, in whole or in part, this Lease, or allow it to be assigned, to an unaffiliated entity, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed by Landlord. No assignee or sublessee of the Leased Premises or any portion thereof may assign or sublet the Leased Premises or any portion thereof.

9.03 Conditions of Assignment. If Tenant desires to assign or sublet all or any part of the Leased Premises to an unaffiliated entity, it shall so notify Landlord at least thirty (30) days in advance of the date on which Tenant desires to make such assignment or sublease. Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of the proposed assignment or sublease and such information as Landlord might request concerning the proposed sublessee or assignee to allow Landlord to make informed judgments as to the financial condition, reputation, operations and general desirability of the proposed sublessee or assignee. Within fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s proposed assignment or sublease and all required information concerning the proposed sublessee or assignee, Landlord shall have the following options: (a) cancel this Lease as to the Leased Premises or portion thereof proposed to be assigned or sublet; (b) consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, and, if the rent due and payable by any assignee or sublessee under any such permitted assignment or sublease, or a combination of the rent payable under such assignment or sublease plus any bonus or any other consideration or any payment incident thereto after Tenant first recoups its out of pocket leasing costs in connection with the assignment or sublease, exceeds the Rent payable under the Lease for such space, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all such excess rent and other excess consideration within ten (10) days following receipt thereof by Tenant, or (c) refuse, in its sole and absolute discretion and judgment, to consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, which refusal shall be deemed to have been exercised unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice providing otherwise. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, if all or any part of the Leased Premises are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other remedies provided by this Lease or provided by law, may, at its option, collect directly from the assignee or sublessee all rent becoming due to Tenant by reason of the assignment or sublease, and Landlord shall have a security interest in all properties on the Leased Premises to secure payment of such sums. Any collection directly by Landlord from the assignee or sublessee shall not be construed to constitute a novation or a release of Tenant or any guarantor from the further performance of its obligations under this Lease.

9.04 Subordination. Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any recorded mortgage or deed of trust lien presently existing or hereafter created upon the Building or the Property and to all existing recorded restrictions, covenants, easements and agreements with respect to the Building or the Property. Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate Tenant’s interest under this Lease to any first mortgage or deed of trust lien hereafter placed on the Leased Premises, and Tenant agrees upon demand to execute additional instruments subordinating this Lease as Landlord may require. If the interests of

Landlord under this Lease shall be transferred by reason of foreclosure or other proceedings for enforcement of any first mortgage or deed of trust lien on the Leased Premises, Tenant shall be bound to the transferee (sometimes called the “Purchaser”) at the option of the Purchaser, under the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease for the balance of the remaining Term, including any extensions or renewals, with the same force and effect as if the Purchaser were Landlord under this Lease, and, if requested by the Purchaser, Tenant agrees to attorn to the Purchaser, including the first mortgagee under, any such mortgage if it is the Purchaser, as its Landlord. Notwithstanding this Article 9.04, Landlord shall use its best efforts to cause mortgagee to enter into a commercially reasonable Subordination and Non-disturbance Agreement with Tenant.

9.05 Estoppel Certificates. Tenant agrees to furnish, from time to time, within ten (10) days after receipt of a request from Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee, a statement certifying, if applicable, the following: Tenant is in possession of the Leased Premises; the Leased Premises are acceptable; the Lease is in full force and effect; the Lease is unmodified; Tenant claims no present charge, lien, or claim of offset against Rent; the Rent is paid for the current month, but is not prepaid for more than one (1) month and will not be prepaid for more than one (1) month in advance; there is no existing default by reason of some act or omission by Landlord; and such other matters as may be reasonably required by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement, in addition to being a default under this Lease, shall be deemed to establish conclusively that this Lease is in full force and effect except as declared by Landlord, that Landlord is not in default of any of its obligations under this Lease, and that Landlord has not received more than one (1) month’s Rent in advance.

Article 10.00 LIENS

10.01 Landlord’s Lien.
