Exhibit 10.17

FIRST AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE

This FIRST AMENDMENT TO OFFICE LEASE (this “First Amendment ”) is made and entered into as of the 24^th day of May, 2010, by and between OAKLAND PROPERTY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and BRIGHTSOURCE ENERGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).

R E C I T A L S:

A. Landlord and Tenant entered into that certain Office Lease dated November 7, 2007 {the “Lease”), whereby Landlord leased to Tenant and Tenant leased from Landlord those certain premises (the “Existing Premises”) consisting of approximately 9,727 rentable square feet of space commonly known as Suite 2150 and located on the twenty-first (21^st) floor of that certain office building located at 0000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx (the “Building”).

B. Landlord and Tenant previously entered into that certain Temporary Space Agreement dated January 12, 2010 (the “Existing Temporary Space Agreement”), whereby Landlord leased to Tenant and Tenant leased from Landlord approximately 3,250 rentable square feet of space comprising a portion of that certain space commonly known as 2125 and located on the twenty-first (21^st) floor of the Building. Landlord and Tenant are concurrently entering into a New Temporary Space Agreement to, among other things, terminate the Existing Temporary Space Agreement effective as of May 24, 2010.

C. Tenant desires to expand the Existing Premises to include that certain space consisting of approximately 5,096 rentable square feet of space commonly known as Suite 2125 and located on the twenty-first (21^st) floor of the Building (the “Expansion Premises”), as delineated on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, and to make other modifications to the Lease, and in connection therewith, Landlord and Tenant desire to amend the Lease as hereinafter provided.

A G R E E M E N T:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Capitalized Terms. All capitalized terms when used herein shall have the same meaning as is given such terms in the Lease unless expressly superseded by the terms of this First Amendment.

2. Modification of Premises. Effective as of the date (the “Expansion Commencement Date”) which is the earlier to occur of (i) the date Tenant commences to conduct business in the Expansion Premises, and (ii) the date the Expansion Premises are “Ready

for Occupancy,” as that term is defined in Section 5,1 of the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Tenant Work Letter”) (which date is anticipated to be July 1, 2010), Tenant shall lease from Landlord and Landlord shall lease to Tenant the Expansion Premises. Consequently, effective upon the Expansion Commencement Date, the Existing Premises shall be increased to include the Expansion Premises. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that such addition of the Expansion Premises to the Existing Premises shall, effective as of the Expansion Commencement Date, increase the rentable square footage of the Premises to approximately 14,823.

3. Condition of Expansion Premises. The taking of possession of the Expansion Premises by Tenant shall establish that the Expansion Premises were at such time in good order, condition and repair subject only to any punch list items relating to the “Tenant Improvements,” as that term is defined in Section 1 of the Tenant Work Letter. Except as specifically set forth in the Tenant Work Letter, Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Expansion Premises (other than Landlord’s repair and maintenance obligations expressly set forth in the Lease). Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Expansion Premises or the Building or with respect to the suitability of the same for the conduct of Tenant’s business.

4. Extension of Lease Term. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant’s lease of the Existing Premises is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2013, pursuant to the terms of the Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, the term of the Lease (i.e., the term of Tenant’s lease of the Existing Premises and the Expansion Premises) shall expire on June 30, 2014 (the “New Lease Expiration Date”), unless sooner terminated as provided in the Lease, as hereby amended. The period of time commencing on the Expansion Commencement Date and terminating on the New Lease Expiration Date shall be referred to herein as the “Expansion Term.”

5. Base Rent.

5.1. Existing Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease, as hereby amended, prior to July 1, 2013, Tenant shall continue to pay Base Rent for the Existing Premises in accordance with the terms of the Lease. Commencing on July 1, 2013, and continuing through the New Lease Expiration Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly installments of Base Rent for the Existing Premises in the amount of Twenty-Eight Thousand Two Hundred Eight and 30/100 Dollars ($28,208.30) (i.e., $2.90 per rentable square foot of the Existing Premises), and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease.

5.2. Expansion Premises. Commencing on the Expansion Commencement Date and continuing throughout the Expansion Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly installments of Base Rent for the Expansion Premises as set forth below, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Lease.

5.3. Expansion Premises Abated Base Rent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in Section 5.2 above, provided that Tenant is not in default under the Lease, as amended, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of the Base Rent (the “Expansion Premises Base Rent Abatement”) otherwise due for the Expansion Premises for the first (1^st) full calendar month of the Expansion Term (the “Expansion Premises Base Rent Abatement Period”), for a Base Rent abatement amount equal to Thirteen Thousand Five Hundred Four and 40/100 Dollars ($13,504.40) in the aggregate. The Base Rent abatement right set forth in this Section 5.3 has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for Tenant’s agreement to enter into this First Amendment and comply with the terms and conditions otherwise required under the Lease, as amended. If Tenant shall be in default under the Lease, as amended, or if the Lease, as amended, is terminated for any reason other than Landlord’s breach of the Lease, as amended, then the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Expansion Premises Base Rent Abatement as of the date of such default or termination, as the case may be, shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Expansion Term and Tenant shall immediately be obligated to begin paying Base Rent for the Expansion Premises in full.

7. Parking. Tenant shall continue to have the parking rights set forth in Article 28 of the Lease during the Expansion Term; provided, however, that effective as of the Expansion Commencement Date, Tenant shall have the right to rent from Landlord up to an additional five (5) unreserved parking passes in the Project parking facility.

“1.2.1 Procedure for Offer.

Pursuant to such First Offer Notice, Landlord shall offer to lease to Tenant the First Offer Space (or the applicable portion thereof). The First Offer Notice shall describe the space so offered to Tenant and shall set forth the ‘First Offer Rent,’ as that term is defined in Section 1.2.3, below.

If Tenant does not so notify Landlord within the ten (10) day period, then notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 1.2.2, Landlord shall be free to lease the space described in such First Offer Notice to anyone to whom Landlord desires on any terms Landlord desires (any lease of such space to a third party shall be referred to herein as an ‘Intervening Lease ’). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant must clcct to exercise its right of first offer, if at all, with respect to all of the space offered by Landlord to Tenant at any particular time, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion thereof. If Tenant does not exercise its right of first offer with respect to any space described in a First Offer Notice or if Tenant fails to respond to a First
