1.9. Base Rent:

1.10. Rent Abatement:

Landlord and Tenant agree that the abatement of rental and other payments contained in this Section is conditional and is made by Landlord in reliance upon Tenant’s faithful and continued performance of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease and the payment of all monies due Landlord hereunder. In the event that Tenant is in monetary default beyond any applicable notice and cure period under the terms and conditions of the Lease, then the unamortized portion of all conditionally abated rental shall become fully liquidated and immediately due and payable (without limitation and in addition to any and all other rights and remedies available to Landlord provided herein or at law and in equity).

1.11. Tenant’s Proportionate Share: The proportion that the total rentable square footage of the Premises bears to the total rentable square footage of the Building, as reasonably calculated by Landlord using the same methodology as used to measure the Premises. Landlord and Tenant stipulate that current rentable square footage of the Building is 432,633 and, accordingly, Tenant’s Proportionate Share is 4.598%, which is the final agreement of the parties as Tenant’s Proportionate Share, and is not subject to change, except as otherwise set forth herein.

For the purpose of determining Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses, “controllable” Operating Expenses shall not increase by more than five percent (5%) per year on a cumulative and compounded basis (for example, if controllable Operating Expenses are $3.00 / rsf in year one, then they shall not exceed $3.15 in year two, $3.31 in year three, $3.48 in year four and so on). It is understood and agreed that controllable Operating Expenses shall not include janitorial costs, utilities, taxes, and insurance premiums, and costs incurred to comply with any governmental requirements for which compliance was not required as of the date of this Lease. The foregoing cap shall not be applicable during the first year of the term during any extension or renewal of this Lease (i.e., such cap shall be “reset” during any extension or renewal of this Lease).

1.12. Base Year: None. There is a full pass through of Operating Expenses and Taxes.

1.13. Electrical Charge: Building-standard electricity for Tenant’s current normal office uses is included as an Operating Expense. Electricity for above-standard uses and times are subject to additional Building-standard charges.

All Parking Spaces shall be in the parking garage adjacent to the Building (the “Adjacent Garage”); provided, however, Tenant may elect to convert up to ten (10) of the parking spaces to be designated as reserved vehicular parking spaces in the parking garage associated with the Building (the “Building Garage”) for the Term of the Lease as may be extended. Tenant’s use of the Parking Spaces subject to (1) such Rules and Regulations (as defined herein) as Landlord may promulgate from time to time and (2) rights of ingress and egress of other tenants and their employees, agents and invitees. None of the Parking Spaces shall be assigned. Once any Parking Spaces are surrendered (provided Tenant must always have minimum of eighty (80) Parking Spaces in the Adjacent Garage and/or the Building Garage), then Tenant may only re-lease such spaces subject to availability.

3

1.19. Parking Rent: Beginning on June 1, 2015, Tenant shall be obligated to pay Landlord on a monthly basis One Hundred Ten and 00/100 Dollars ($110.00) per space, if any, in the Building Garage (exclusive of any taxes owed by Landlord on such parking fees). Tenant shall be obligated to pay Landlord on a monthly basis, commencing June 1, 2015, the greater of (a) Eighty-One and 00/100 Dollars ($81.00) per space or (b) the prevailing fair market rate per space in the Adjacent Garage (exclusive of any taxes owed by Landlord on such parking fees). The “prevailing fair market rate” shall be the same rate Landlord is currently being charged by the Adjacent Garage operator (“Operator”) for such spaces plus five percent (5%). Tenant shall be responsible for all taxes on Parking Rent.

1.20. Permitted Uses: General office uses in keeping with the first class nature of the Building and only for such other uses that are incidentally related thereto, including, but not limited to, an employee lunch room, coffee bar, printing and copy facilities, storage, the location of telecommunications equipment, data, word processing and computer equipment, and other equipment utilized in the normal conduct of general office uses and for no other purpose.

The Amount Due on Execution shall be applied to the first installment(s) of Base Rent and/or Tenant’s pro rata share of the Operating Expenses and taxes, as applicable, due and payable by Tenant under this Lease.

The Letter of Credit shall be delivered within five (5) days following Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord.

2. DEMISE AND TERM. Landlord does hereby lease to Tenant and Tenant hereby rents and leases from Landlord the Premises. TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT ACCEPTS THE PREMISES IN ITS “AS-IS, WHERE IS” CONDITION. If Landlord fails to deliver the Premises to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the full execution of this Lease, Tenant may thereafter terminate this Lease upon five (5) business days prior written notice to Landlord, and such termination shall be effective unless Landlord delivers the Premises within such five (5) business day period.

4

Tenant covenants that the Premises may only be used for the Permitted Use, together with the incidental activities of Tenant, its affiliated companies or other subsidiary companies and for no other use or purpose. Tenant further covenants that the Premises will not be used or occupied for any unlawful purposes. Tenant acknowledges that the Permitted Use

5

is not a use granted exclusively to Tenant and that Landlord reserves the right to lease premises in the Building to others for the same or a similar permitted use. Tenant further acknowledges that it has received no written or oral inducements from Landlord or any of Landlord’s representatives concerning this Lease (other than as specifically set forth herein) or that Tenant will be granted any such exclusive rights. Tenant will not make or permit to be made any use of the Premises or any part thereof which would violate any of the covenants, agreements, terms, provisions and conditions of this Lease or which directly or indirectly is forbidden by public law, ordinance or governmental regulation; or make or permit any use of the Premises which may be dangerous, noxious or offensive or create or maintain any nuisance or disturbance in, at or on the Premises; or make or permit any use of the Premises which may invalidate, or increase the premium cost of any policy of insurance carried on the Building and environs and their operation, or any use which, in Landlord’s sole judgment, shall impair the character, reputation or appearance of the Building and environs. Under no circumstances may Tenant have more than one (1) person per 150 rentable square foot working from the Premises on regular basis at any time (and Landlord doesn’t represent or warrant the Building standard HVAC or other systems within the Building are adequate for more than one (1) person per 200 rentable square feet of space within the Premises).

6

standards maintained at Class A buildings comparable to the Building and located in the submarket in which the Building is located; (iii) janitorial service (including trash removal) to the Premises on Business Days other than Holidays for Building-standard installations (Landlord reserves the right to ▇▇▇▇ Tenant separately for above Building standard janitorial service required for non-standard installations) and such window washing as may from time to time in Landlord’s judgment be reasonably required, but in each of the foregoing instances, keeping with the standards maintained at Class A buildings comparable to the Building and located in the submarket in which the Building is located and in accordance with Exhibit F attached hereto; (iv) elevators for ingress and egress to the floor on which the Premises are located, in common with other tenants, provided that Landlord may reasonably limit the number of elevators to be in operation at times other than during normal working hours and on Holidays; (v) replacement of Building-standard light bulbs and fluorescent tubes (but not incandescent light bulbs, nonstandard fixtures, or other lamps of Tenant); (vi) normal electrical current at all times, other than for equipment whose electrical energy consumption exceeds normal electrical usage (defined below); and (vii) parking per the terms of Section 1.18 hereof. Except as otherwise set forth herein, failure by Landlord to any extent to make available, or any slowdown, stoppage or interruption of these services shall not render Landlord liable in any respect for damage to either person, property or business, nor be construed an eviction of Tenant or work an abatement or offset of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof. Should any equipment or machinery furnished by Landlord breakdown or for any cause cease to function properly, Landlord shall use reasonable diligence to repair same promptly, but except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, Tenant shall have no claim for abatement of Rent or damages on account of any interruption in service occasioned thereby or resulting therefrom. Landlord shall pay for expenses of maintenance and operation of healing and air conditioning equipment. In the event Tenant requests, Landlord shall provide any of the foregoing services or any other services to Tenant at times other than as set forth above, or outside normal working hours (any time other than 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Saturday, specifically excluding Sundays and Holidays), as applicable, and Landlord shall have the right to ▇▇▇▇ Tenant and Tenant agrees to pay for such additional services. As of the Commencement Date of this Lease, the current charge for after-hours HVAC is $60.00 per hour per air handler. The Premises is serviced by two (2) air handlers; provided, however, Tenant may elect to run just one air handler. Landlord reserves the right to change the after-hours HVAC hourly charge from time to time (which rate must be no more than the rate payable by a majority of other tenants in the Building at that time). For purposes of this Lease provision, “Holidays” shall include New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and any such other holidays as determined by Landlord and

7

applied to all tenants of the Building. Landlord shall also have the right to require a separate meter, to meter Tenant’s equipment within the Premises, if any, utilizing electricity exceeding normal electrical usage. Following installation of said electrical meter, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord for Landlord’s actual cost of such electricity within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s receipt of an invoice from Landlord. Tenant will not install or operate in the Premises any electrically operated equipment or machinery that operates on greater than 220 volt power or exceeds normal electrical usage without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Landlord may condition such consent upon the payment by Tenant of additional rent in compensation for the excess consumption of electricity, as set forth above, and for the cost of any additional wiring or apparatus that may be occasioned by the operation of such equipment or machinery. Tenant shall not install any equipment of any type or nature that will or may necessitate any changes, replacements or additions to, or in the use of, the Building mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems serving the Premises or the Building, without first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Business machines and mechanical equipment belonging to Tenant which cause noise or vibration that may be transmitted to the structure of the Building or to any space therein to such a degree as to be objectionable to Landlord or to any tenant in the Building shall be installed and maintained by Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, on vibration eliminators or other devices sufficient to reduce such noise and vibration to a level reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. It is understood and agreed that “normal electrical usage” includes the use, for normal general office purposes, of copying machines, personal or desk-top computers and other standard office equipment, including a computer network and related sewer system. In the event that Tenant’s connected loads for low electrical consumption (120/208 volts) are in excess of an average of six (6) ▇▇▇▇▇ per square foot of usable area of the Premises and/or Tenant’s connected loads for high electrical consumption (277/480 volts) are in excess of an average of two (2) ▇▇▇▇▇ per square foot of usable area of the Premises, and Landlord agrees to provide such additional load capacities to Tenant (such agreement of Landlord not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), then Landlord shall install and maintain, at Tenant’s reasonable expense, electrical wiring, risers, transformers, electrical panels, and other items required by Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, to accommodate Tenant’s design loads and capacities that exceed said loads. If Tenant shall consume electrical current in excess of six (6) kilowatt hours per usable square foot of the Premises per month, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the actual costs to Landlord to provide such additional consumption as additional Rent. To the extent Landlord reasonably believes Tenant is consuming electrical current in excess of that which is described in the preceding sentence, Landlord may determine the amount of such additional consumption by a separate meter in the Premises installed, maintained, and read by Landlord at Tenant’s reasonable expense

Tenant shall pay its pro-rata share of Operating Expenses. Within sixty (60) days after the first day of each calendar year, or a reasonable period thereafter, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant an estimate of Tenant’s pro-rata share of reimbursable Operating Expenses for the ensuing calendar year. Tenant shall pay to Landlord 1/12th of said estimate at the same time and place as the Base Rent is to be paid pursuant to paragraph 3, above. Landlord will furnish a statement of the actual cost with respect to the reimbursable Operating Expenses no later than one hundred twenty (120) days following the calendar year-end including the year following the year in which the Lease terminates. In the event that Landlord is, for any reason, unable to furnish the accounting for the prior year within the time specified above, the Landlord will furnish such accounting as soon thereafter as practicable with the same force and effect as the statement would have had if delivered within the time specified above. Tenant will pay any deficiency to Landlord as shown by such statement within thirty (30) days after receipt of statement. If the total amount paid by Tenant during any calendar year exceeds the actual amount of its share of the reimbursable Operating Expenses due for such calendar year, the excess will be refunded by Landlord within thirty (30) days of the date of the statement. Landlord will keep books and records showing the reimbursable Operating Expenses in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Landlord’s right to be reimbursed for any particular Operating Expense shall be waived if an invoice therefor is not delivered to Tenant within two (2) years following the year in which such Operating Expense was incurred.

So long as Tenant is not then in default of any term or condition of this Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Tenant shall have the right to conduct a Tenant’s Review, as hereinafter defined, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (including, without limitation, photocopy and delivery charges), upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord. “Tenant’s Review” shall mean a review of Landlord’s books and records relating to (and only relating to) Operating Expenses payable by Tenant hereunder for the most recently completed calendar year as reflected on Landlord’s final year-end reconciliation of Operating Expenses (“Final Statement”). (Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the parties agree (or the Independent Review provides) that an error was found, Tenant may review the applicable line item(s) for the prior calendar year.) Tenant’s Review must be performed by either an employee of Tenant or by a Certified Public Accountant (“CPA”) or nationally or regionally recognized real estate professional with experience performing such audits for large tenants in similar Class A office buildings. Tenant must elect to perform a Tenant’s Review by written notice of such election received by Landlord within one hundred eighty (180) days following delivery to Tenant of the Final Statement for the most recently completed calendar year. In the event that Tenant fails to make such election in the required time and manner required or fails to diligently perform such Tenant’s Review to completion, then Landlord’s calculation of Operating Expenses shall be final and binding on Tenant. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that even if it has elected to

12

conduct a Tenant’s Review, Tenant shall nonetheless pay all Operating Expense payments to Landlord, subject to readjustment. Tenant further acknowledges that Landlord’s books and records relating to the Building may not be copied in any manner, are confidential, and may only be reviewed at a location reasonably designated by Landlord; but Landlord will make such records available within the metropolitan area in which the Premises is located. Tenant shall provide to Landlord a copy of Tenant’s Review as soon as reasonably possible after the date of such Review. If Tenant’s Review reflects a reimbursement owing to Tenant by Landlord, and if Landlord disagrees with Tenant’s Review, then Tenant and Landlord shall jointly appoint an auditor to conduct a review (“Independent Review”), which Independent Review shall be deemed binding and conclusive on both Landlord and Tenant. If the Independent Review results in a reimbursement owing to Tenant equal to five percent (5%) or more of the amounts reflected in the Final Statement, the costs of the Independent Review and Tenant’s Review shall be paid by Landlord, but otherwise Tenant shall pay the costs of Tenant’s Review and the Independent Review. Under no circumstances shall Tenant conduct a review of Landlord’s books and records whereby the auditor operates on a contingency fee or similar payment arrangement. Any such reviewer must sign a commercially reasonable non-disclosure, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreement. Tenant agrees to use reasonable efforts to keep the results of its audit confidential, except for such disclosures to Tenant’s agents, employees, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, officers, directors, members and contractors, and except for such disclosures as may be required by law, compelled by judicial process or which may be necessary to enforce the terms and provisions of this Lease. Any amount owed by Landlord pursuant to this paragraph shall be deducted from next accruing Rent, and if no Rent is then owing, Landlord shall remit such amounts to Tenant within thirty (30) days.

With respect to any calendar year or partial calendar year during the term of this lease in which the Building is not occupied to the extent of one hundred percent (100%) of the rentable area thereof, the Operating Expenses for such period which vary with occupancy shall, for the purposes hereof, be grossed up to the amount which would have been incurred had the Building been occupied to the extent of one hundred percent (100%) of the rentable area thereof.

Tenant and its employees, agents and invitees shall have the non-exclusive right to use the Parking Spaces, subject to (1) such Rules and Regulations (as defined herein) as Landlord may promulgate from time to time and (2) rights of ingress and egress of other tenants and their employees, agents and invitees. Landlord shall be directly responsible to the Operator for the payment of any and all fees or charges hereunder, and Tenant shall be under no obligation to pay the Operator for said parking spaces. Tenant shall take reasonable measures to ensure that its employees, agents and invitees do not occupy more than the above referenced quantity of parking. Tenant shall only permit parking by its employees, agents or invitees of appropriate vehicles in appropriate designated parking areas. Landlord shall not be responsible for enforcing Tenant’s parking rights against any third parties.

13

Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, it is understood and agreed that no specific, reserved parking spaces, will be allocated for use by Tenant in the Adjacent Garage or Building Garage. With respect to the unreserved Parking Spaces, each user of the Adjacent Garage and Building Garage will have the right to park in any available parking space in accordance with regulations of uniform applicability promulgated by the Operator and Landlord. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to the rights of Tenant set forth herein with respect to Tenant’s Parking Spaces, Landlord and the Operator hereby reserve the right from time to time to designate a reasonable portion of the Adjacent Garage or Building Garage to be used exclusively by visitors to the Building, other persons, entities, or tenants.

Tenant agrees that it and its employees shall observe the safety precautions in the use of the Adjacent Garage and Building Garage and shall at all times abide by all reasonable rules and regulations promulgated by the Operator and Landlord governing their use. In the event that the Operator and/or Landlord require that an identification or parking sticker must be displayed at all times in all cars parked in the Adjacent Garage and/or Building Garage, Landlord shall provide Tenant same, and any car not displaying such a sticker may be towed away at the car owner’s expense. In addition, Tenant’s use of the Adjacent Garage shall be subject to all applicable laws and regulations. There shall be no additional cost to Tenant for such identification or parking stickers.

Tenant may park in the Adjacent Garage without restrictions during the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday (exclusive of the “Parking Holidays” which are New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, the day after Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day). The gates controlling access to the Building Garage shall be programmed so that entry may be made by use of an access device after 4:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday, Saturdays, Sundays, and the Parking Holidays by Tenant and its employees. At all other times, the gates controlling access to the Adjacent Garage will be open to the public. In addition, the gates controlling access shall be programmed so that entry cannot be made by use of an access device after 6:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday (or after 12:00 noon, local time, on Saturdays, Sundays, or on Parking Holidays), so that all vehicles entering the Adjacent Garage after 6:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday (or after 12:00 noon, local time, on Saturdays, Sundays, or on Parking Holidays) must take a ticket to gain access to the Adjacent Garage, and subsequently pay the standard charge or rate payable by patrons of the Adjacent Garage upon the exit from the Adjacent Garage. However, those persons entering the Adjacent Garage prior to 6:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday (or before 12:00 noon, local time, on Saturdays, Sundays, or on Parking Holidays) shall continue to be able to exit the Adjacent Garage after 6:00 p.m., local time, Monday through Friday (or after 12:00 noon, local time, on Saturdays, Sundays, or on Parking Holidays), by use of an access device and shall not be required to pay any fee to exit the Adjacent Garage. Subject to the remaining terms and provisions of this Section 7, the Operator reserves the right to close the Adjacent Garage during periods of unusually inclement weather or for repairs. When the Adjacent Garage is closed, monthly permit holders shall be afforded access to the Building Garage by means of a magnetic card or other procedure provided by Landlord.

14

In the event that Landlord fails to provide to Tenant all or a portion of the Parking Spaces required under this Lease for more than five (5) consecutive business days, Landlord must make reasonable alternative parking spaces available to Tenant. Alternative parking spaces will be deemed to be reasonable if they are in a three (3) block radius of the Building, or, on the condition that Landlord provides reasonable shuttle service, within a one and a half (1.5) mile radius of the Building. If Landlord fails to provide the Parking Spaces or reasonable alternative parking spaces for more than three (3) consecutive business days, Parking Rent shall thereafter ▇▇▇▇▇ on the applicable Parking Spaces. At any time during which Landlord is providing alternative parking, Tenant may terminate such alternative parking upon ten (10) business days prior written notice to Landlord if Tenant is able to contract directly with the then owner of the Adjacent Garage for such parking spaces. If Landlord thereafter is able to satisfy the parking requirements within the Adjacent Garage, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing and if Tenant has contracted directly with the owner of the Adjacent Garage, Tenant will have thirty (30) days in which to once again lease the applicable Parking Spaces through Landlord. Subject to the casualty and condemnation provisions set forth in Sections 10 and 15 below, in the event that Landlord fails to provide more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Parking Spaces to Tenant in the Building Garage or Adjacent Garage for more than one hundred eighty (180) days, Tenant may thereafter elect to terminate this Lease upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice to Landlord and such termination shall be effective unless Landlord is able to satisfy such parking requirement before the expiration of such ten (10) business day period.

The term “Hazardous Substances”, as used in this Lease shall mean pollutants, contaminants, toxic or hazardous wastes, or any other substances, the use and/or the removal of which is required or the use of which is restricted, prohibited or penalized by any “Environmental Law”, which term shall mean any federal, state or local law, ordinance or other statute of a governmental or quasi-governmental authority relating to pollution or protection of the environment. Tenant hereby agrees that (A) no activity will be conducted on the Premises that will produce any Hazardous Substance, except for such activities that are part of the ordinary course of Tenant’s business activities (the “Permitted Activities”) provided said Permitted Activities are conducted in accordance with all Environmental Laws and have been approved in advance in writing by Landlord; Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining any required permits and paying any fees and providing any testing required by any governmental agency; (B) the Premises will not be used in any manner for the storage of any Hazardous Substances except for the temporary storage of such materials that are used in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business (the “Permitted Materials”) provided such Permitted Materials are properly stored in a manner and location meeting all Environmental Laws and approved in advance in writing by Landlord, and except for cleaning and office supplies used in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business; Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining any required permits and paying any fees and providing any testing required by any governmental agency; (C) no portion of the Premises will be used as a landfill or a dump; (D) Tenant will not install any underground tanks of any type; (E) Tenant will not allow any surface or subsurface conditions to exist or come into existence that constitute, or with the passage of time may constitute a public or private nuisance; (F) Tenant will not permit any Hazardous Substances to be brought

15

onto the Premises, except for the Permitted Materials described above, and if so brought or found located thereon, the same shall be immediately removed, with proper disposal, and all required cleanup procedures shall be diligently undertaken pursuant to all Environmental Laws. In connection with a suspected breach of Tenant’s obligations under this Section 8, upon reasonable advance written notice to Tenant, and so long as Tenant’s operations are not unreasonably disturbed, Landlord or Landlord’s representative shall have the right but not the obligation to enter the Premises for the purpose of inspecting the storage, use and disposal of Permitted Materials to ensure compliance with all Environmental Laws. Should it be determined, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, that said Permitted Materials are being improperly stored, used, or disposed of, then Tenant shall immediately take such corrective action as requested by Landlord. Should Tenant fail to take such corrective action within 24 hours, Landlord shall have the right to perform such work and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for any and all costs associated with said work. If at any time during or after the Lease Term, the Premises are found to be so contaminated or subject to said conditions as a direct result of Tenant’s use of the Premises, Tenant shall diligently institute proper and thorough cleanup procedures at Tenant’s sole cost.

During the Lease Term, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with copies of all summons, citations, directives, information inquiries or requests, notices of potential responsibility, notices of violation or deficiency, orders or decrees, claims, complaints, investigations, judgments, letters, notice of environmental liens, and other communications, written or oral, actual or threatened, from the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality or other federal, state or local agency or authority, or any other entity or individual, concerning (i) any Hazardous Substance and the Premises; (ii) the imposition of any lien on the Premises; or (iii) any alleged violation of or responsibility under any Environmental Law.

Landlord shall, during the Lease Term, procure and keep in force at least the following insurance (and the reasonable cost of all of Landlord’s insurance will be deemed to be an Operating Expense):

16

Tenant shall, during the Lease Term, procure and keep in force the following insurance:

17

Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive their respective rights of recovery against each other for any loss of, or damage to, either parties’ property. Each party shall obtain any special endorsements, if required by its insurer whereby the insurer waives its rights of subrogation against the other party.

If, prior to or during the Lease Term, or any extension thereof, the Premises or the building of which the Premises may be a part, shall be so damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty so as to render them untenantable for the purposes set forth in Paragraph 4 hereof, then Landlord, at its sole option, shall have the right to cancel and terminate this Lease. If not terminated, then Landlord shall repair and restore the Premises with all reasonable speed to substantially the same condition as immediately prior to such damage or destruction, and the Rent or a just and proportionate part thereof, according to Tenant’s

18

ability to utilize the Premises in its damaged condition, shall be abated until the Premises shall have been repaired and restored by Landlord. But if the Premises shall be so lightly damaged by fire or other casualty as not to be rendered untenantable, then Landlord agrees to repair the Premises with reasonable promptness and the rent accrued and accruing, shall not cease. “Untenantable” Premises shall be such as to not allow Tenant to transact and effectuate its operations in the ordinary course of business. All amounts under this Lease shall ▇▇▇▇▇ in proportion to the portion of the Premises then rendered untenantable.

If Landlord estimates that the Premises will remain untenantable for in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice delivered to Landlord within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of the estimated duration that the Premises will remain untenantable.

If Landlord estimated the duration that the Premises would remain untenantable at one hundred eighty (180) days or less, and following one hundred eighty (180) days’ from the date of casualty the Premises remains untenantable, then Tenant may thereafter terminate this Lease upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice to Landlord (and such termination shall be effective unless Landlord delivers the Premises in the required condition within said ten (10) business day period).

If Landlord estimated the duration that the Premises would remain untenantable at more than one hundred eighty (180) days (but neither party elected to terminate this Lease), and the Premises remains untenantable for more than thirty (30) days following the estimated completion date (subject to extension for force majeure and delays caused by Tenant), then Tenant may thereafter terminate this Lease upon ten (10) business days’ prior written notice to Landlord (and such termination shall be effective unless Landlord delivers the Premises in the required condition within said ten (10) business day period).

If there is a casualty during the last twelve (12) months of the Term (as may be extended), and if due to such casualty Landlord estimates that the Premises shall remain untenantable for in excess of thirty (30) days, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice delivered to Landlord within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s delivery to Tenant of the estimated duration that the Premises will remain untenantable.

Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that the Building is not currently subject to a mortgage, deed of trust or similar encumbrance. Tenant shall, upon the written request of Landlord, agree to the subordination of this Lease and the lien hereof to the lien of any present or future mortgage upon the Premises irrespective of the time of execution or the time of recording of any such mortgage. In the event of subordination of this Lease, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to obtain from the holder of any such mortgage, a written agreement with Tenant to the effect that (A) in the event of a foreclosure or other action taken under the mortgage by the holder thereof, this Lease and the rights of Tenant hereunder shall not be disturbed but shall continue in full force and effect so long as Tenant shall not be in default hereunder beyond any applicable notice and cure periods; and (B) such holder will agree that in the event it or any successor assign shall be in possession of the Premises, that so long as Tenant shall observe and perform all of the obligations of Tenant to be performed pursuant to this Lease, such Mortgagee will perform all obligations of Landlord required to be performed under this Lease. The word “Mortgage” as used herein includes mortgages, deeds of trust and any sale-leaseback transactions, or other similar instruments, and modifications, extensions, renewals, and replacements thereof, and any and all advances thereunder.

Subject to providing Tenant reasonable prior written notice, and so long as Tenant’s use of the Premises is not unreasonably disturbed, Landlord and its authorized agents shall have free access to said Premises at any and all reasonable times to inspect the same and for the purposes pertaining to the rights of the Landlord set forth in this Lease.

Tenant agrees to comply with the rules and regulations concerning the use and enjoyment of the Premises, as set forth on Exhibit “B”. Among other things, the rules and regulations specifically prohibit outdoor storage.

26

Landlord covenants that it has good and sufficient right to enter into this Lease and that they alone have full right to lease the Premises for the Lease Term aforesaid. Landlord further covenants that upon performing the terms and obligations of Tenant under this Lease, Tenant will have quiet enjoyment throughout the Lease Term and any renewal or extension thereof, subject, however, to all provisions of this Lease and all laws, liens, encumbrances and restrictive covenants to which the land is subject.

Neither Tenant nor anyone claiming by, through, or under the Lease, shall have the right to file or place any mechanics lien or other lien of any kind or character whatsoever upon said Premises or upon any building or improvement thereon, or upon the leasehold interest of Tenant therein, and notice is hereby given that no contractor, subcontractor, or anyone else who may furnish any material, service or labor for any building, improvements, alteration repairs or any part thereof, shall at any time be or become entitled to any lien thereon, and for the further security of the Landlord, Tenant covenants and agrees to give actual notice thereof in advance, to any and all contractors and subcontractors who may furnish or agree to furnish any such material, service or labor.

27

The occurrence of one or more of the following events shall constitute a material default and breach of this Lease by Tenant:

28

Then and in any such event Landlord shall have the right, at the sole option of the Landlord, then or at any time thereafter while such default or defaults shall continue, in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded Landlord hereunder or by law, to take any of the following actions: (1) to cure such default or defaults at its own expense and without prejudice to any other remedies which it might otherwise have, any reasonable payment made or expenses incurred by Landlord in curing such default with interest thereon at the Interest Rate; or (2) to re-enter the Premises, without notice, and dispossess Tenant and anyone claiming under Tenant by summary proceedings or otherwise, and remove their effects, and take complete possession of the Premises and either (a) declare this Lease terminated and the Lease Term ended by delivering written notice to Tenant, or (b) elect to continue this Lease in full force and effect, but with the right at any time thereafter to declare this Lease terminated and the Lease Term ended by delivering written notice to Tenant. “Interest Rate” means the prime interest rate per annum for commercial loans (as published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal (▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇), and with any changes in such rate to be effective on the date such change is published) plus 5% per annum, but if such rate exceeds the maximum interest rate permitted by law, such rate will be reduced to the highest rate allowed by law under the circumstances. Additionally, without notice, Landlord may alter locks or other security devices at the Premises to deprive Tenant of access thereto, and Landlord shall not be required to provide a new key or right of access to Tenant, except as required by applicable law (this Lease supersedes Section 93.002 of the Texas Property Code to the extent of any conflict). In such re-entry the Landlord may, with or without process of law, remove all persons from the Premises, and Tenant hereby covenants in such event, for itself and all others occupying the Premises under Tenant, to peacefully yield up and surrender the Premises to the Landlord. Should Landlord declare this Lease terminated and the Lease Term ended, the Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant the Rent and all other sums due and owing by Tenant to the date of termination, plus the reasonable costs of curing all of Tenant’s defaults existing at or prior to the date of termination, plus the reasonable cost of recovering possession of the Premises, plus the deficiency, if any, between Tenant’s Rent for the balance of the Lease Term provided hereunder and the Rent obtained by Landlord under another lease for the Premises for the balance of the Lease Term remaining under this Lease. Landlord shall seek to use reasonable efforts to mitigate Landlord’s damages which may, depending upon the circumstances, include reletting the Premises with or without advertising, and on the best terms available for the remainder of the Lease Term hereof, or for such longer or shorter period as Landlord shall deem advisable; however, Landlord shall not be obligated to relet the Premises before leasing other

29

portions of the Building, and Tenant’s obligations hereunder shall not be diminished because of Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or to collect rent due for a reletting. Tenant shall remain liable for payments of all Rent and other charges and costs imposed on Tenant herein, in the amounts, at the times and upon the conditions as herein provided, but Landlord shall credit against such liability of Tenant all amounts received by Landlord from such reletting after first reimbursing itself for all costs incurred in curing Tenant’s defaults, and for the reasonable attorney fees and legal costs incurred by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s defaults.

No re-entry by Landlord or any action brought by Landlord to remove Tenant from the Premises shall operate to terminate this Lease unless Landlord shall have given written notice of termination to Tenant pursuant to and in accordance with Section 22 above, in which event Tenant’s liability shall be as above provided. No right or remedy granted to Landlord herein is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy herein provided shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy hereunder or now or hereafter existing in law or equity or by statute. In the event of termination of this Lease, Tenant waives any and all rights to redeem the Premises either given by any statute now in effect or hereafter enacted.

The terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained and as the same may from time to time hereafter be supplemented, modified or amended, shall apply to, bind, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, respectively.

30

In the event either party now or hereafter shall consist of more than one person, firm or corporation, then and in such event all such person, firms and/or corporations shall be jointly and severally liable as parties hereunder.

All notices required under this Lease shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be properly served three (3) business days following the date when posted by certified United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or one (1) business day following the date when delivered to a nationally recognized overnight courier, to the party to whom directed at the address set forth in Section 1 above or at such other address as may be from time to time designated in writing by the party changing such address. Notices may be sent on behalf of Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, by counsel representing Landlord or Tenant, as applicable.

Tenant agrees that at any time within ten (10) days following written notice from Landlord, it will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord or any proposed mortgagee or purchaser a statement in writing certifying whether this Lease is in full force and effect and, if it is in full force and effect, what modifications have been made to the date of the certificates and whether or not any defaults or offsets exist with respect to this Lease and, if there are, what they are claimed to be and setting forth dates to which Rent or other charges have been paid in advance, if any, and stating whether or not Landlord is in default, if so, specifying what the default may be. The failure of Tenant to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord a statement as above shall constitute an acknowledgment by Tenant that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect and that the Rent and other charges have been duly and fully paid to and including the respective due dates immediately preceding the date of Landlord’s notice to Tenant and shall constitute as to any person, a waiver of any defaults which may exist prior to such notice.

31

(a) Tenant represents and warrants that to Tenant’s current, actual knowledge (such knowledge being limited to that of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, the Chief Financial Officer of Tenant): (1) Tenant and each person or entity owning an interest in Tenant is: (i) not currently identified on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, executive order or regulation (collectively, the “List”); and (ii) not a person or entity with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited to engage in transactions by any trade embargo, economic sanction, or other prohibition of United States law, regulation, or Executive Order of the President of the United States; (2) none of the funds or other assets of Tenant constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Embargoed Person (as hereinafter defined); (3) no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in Tenant (whether directly or indirectly); (4) none of the funds of Tenant have been derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the investment in Tenant is prohibited by law or that the Lease is in violation of law; and (5) Tenant has implemented procedures, and will consistently apply those procedures to ensure the foregoing representations and warranties remain true and correct at all times.

32

(b) Tenant covenants and agrees: (1) to immediately notify Landlord in writing if any of the representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this paragraph or the preceding paragraph are no longer true or have been breached or if Tenant has a reasonable basis to believe that they may no longer be true or have been breached; and (2) to not knowingly use funds from any “Prohibited Person” (as such term is defined in the September 24, 2001 Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism) to make any payment due to Landlord under the Lease.

(c) Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s inclusion on the List at any time during the Lease Term shall be a material default of the Lease, subject to Tenant’s right to notice and opportunity to cure same. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Tenant shall not permit the Premises or any portion thereof to be used or occupied by any person or entity on the List or by any Embargoed Person (on a permanent, temporary or transient basis), and any such use or occupancy of the Premises by any such person or entity shall be a material default of the Lease, subject to Tenant’s right to notice and opportunity to cure same.

(d) The term Embargoed Person means any person, entity or government subject to trade restrictions under U.S. law, including but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §1701 et seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Ordersor regulations promulgated thereunder with the result that the investment in Tenant is prohibited by law or Tenant is in violation of law (“Embargoed Person”). This Subsection (d) shall not apply to any person to the extent that such person’s interest in the Tenant is through a U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity. As used in this Agreement, U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity means a Person, other than an individual, whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange, or quoted on an automated quotation system, in the United States, or a wholly-owned subsidiary of such a person (“U.S. Publicly-Traded Entity”).

33

All amounts owed by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the Interest Rate.

It is expressly understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, that each and all of the representations, warranties, covenants, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of Landlord while in form purporting to be the representations, warranties, covenants, undertakings and agreements of Landlord are nevertheless each and every one of them made and intended, not as personal representations, warranties, covenants, undertakings and agreements by Landlord or for the purpose or with the intention of binding Landlord personally, but are made and intended for the purpose only of subjecting Landlord’s interest in the Building and property related thereto and owned by Landlord, to the terms of this Lease and for no other purpose whatsoever, and in case of default hereunder by Landlord, Tenant shall look solely to the interests of Landlord in the Building and property related thereto and owned by Landlord; and that Landlord’s members, managers, officers, directors and/or employees shall not have any personal liability to pay any indebtedness accruing hereunder or to perform any covenant, either express or implied, herein contained, all such personal liability, if any, being expressly waived and released by Tenant and by all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant.

Tenant agrees to give any holder of any first mortgage or first trust deed in the nature of a mortgage (both hereinafter referred to as a “First Mortgage”) against the Premises, or any interest therein, by certified mail, a copy of any notice or claim of default served upon Landlord by Tenant, provided that prior to such notice Tenant has been notified in writing (by way of service on Tenant by certified mail of a copy of an assignment of Landlord’s interest in leases, or otherwise) of the address of such First Mortgage holder. Tenant further agrees that if Landlord shall have failed to cure any such default within twenty (20) days

34

after such notice to Landlord (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if Landlord has commenced within such twenty (20) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default), then the holder of the First Mortgage shall have an additional thirty (30) days within which to cure or correct such Default (or if such default cannot be cured or corrected within that time, then such additional time as may be necessary if such holder of the First Mortgage has commenced with such thirty (30) days and is diligently pursuing the remedies or steps necessary to cure or correct such default, including the time necessary to obtain possession if possession is necessary to cure or correct such default. Except as specifically stated herein, this Section 32 shall not limit, waive or restrict any other rights or remedies available to Tenant under this Lease.

Within ten (10) days after receipt, Landlord and Tenant shall advise the other party in writing, and provide the other with copies of (as applicable), any notices alleging violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”) relating to any portion of the Building, parking and/or other common areas, or the Premises; any claims made or threatened in writing regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any portion of the Building, parking and/or other common areas, or the Premises; or any governmental or regulatory actions or investigations instituted or threatened regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any portion of the Building, parking and/or other common areas, or the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall maintain the Premises in compliance with all ADA requirements, provided Landlord acknowledges that Tenant shall have no obligation to alter any portion of the Premises that are “grandfathered” under ADA (Landlord hereby acknowledging that such portions of the Premises are in compliance). Similarly, Landlord shall be responsible for maintaining the remainder of the Building (other than those portions of the Building leased to third parties) and surrounding areas (including the parking facilities) in compliance with ADA.

Landlord and Tenant agree that the term and conditions of this Lease shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Texas.

No more often than one time per rolling twelve month period, within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s request, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord its then current audited financial statements of Tenant (and if audited financial statements are not then available, such unaudited statements must be certified by an officer of Tenant as true, accurate and complete in all material respects). This information includes a balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the most recent prior year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. Landlord hereby agrees to only request such financial information for a legitimate business reason and to only share such information with individuals having a legitimate business reason in reviewing the same (such as asset managers, officers of prospective purchasers, loan officers of potential lenders, and attorneys), and if requested by Tenant, Landlord shall certify the same in writing.

35

Tenant agrees not to knowingly share any business terms of this Lease (such as rent, rent abatement, concessions, securitization, allowances, or options) with any tenant or prospective tenant of the Building.

The parties represent that each has directly dealt with and only with brokers identified in Article 1 (whose commission shall be paid by Landlord pursuant to a separate agreement with each such broker), in connection with this Lease and EACH PARTY AGREES TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE OTHER PARTY FROM ALL DAMAGES, LIABILITY, AND EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY’S FEES) ARISING FROM ANY CLAIMS OR DEMANDS OF ANY OTHER BROKER OR BROKERS OR FINDERS FOR ANY COMMISSION ALLEGED TO BE DUE SUCH BROKER OR BROKERS OR FINDERS IN CONNECTION WITH ITS PARTICIPATING IN THE NEGOTIATION WITH SUCH PARTY AND CLAIMING THROUGH SUCH PARTY.

Whenever a period of time is herein prescribed for action to be taken by Landlord or Tenant, the party taking the action shall not be liable or responsible for, and there shall be excluded from the computation of any such period of lime, any delays due to strikes, riots, acts of God, shortages of labor or materials, terrorist activities, acts of war, governmental actions or inactions or laws, regulations, or restrictions, or any other causes of any kind whatsoever which are beyond the control of such acting party (“Force Majeure”); provided, however, in no event shall Force Majeure apply to the financial obligations of Tenant or Landlord under this Lease, including, without limitation, Tenant’s obligation to promptly pay Base Rent, Additional Rent, reimbursements or any other amount payable to or by Landlord.

2. RENEWAL OPTION.

(a) Provided that all the following have not occurred at the time of Tenant’s exercise of the Renewal Option: (1) Tenant is not in default of any of the terms, covenants and conditions hereof beyond any applicable notice and/or cure periods, (2) Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises has not been terminated, and (3) Tenant has not assigned any of its interest in this Lease or sublet any portion of the Premises, other than in connection with a Permitted Transfer, then Tenant shall have the right and option to extend the Lease Term (the “Renewal Option”) for one (1) further sixty (60) month period (hereinafter the “Renewal Term”). Such extension of the Lease Term shall be on the same terms, covenants and conditions as provided for in the Lease Term, except as set forth in this Section, and, except that the Base Rent during the Renewal Term shall be at fair market base rent then in effect on equivalent properties, of equivalent size, in equivalent areas, with the length of the Renewal Term and the credit standing of Tenant to be taken into account and otherwise based on the factors listed below, (the “Fair Market Base Rent”). Tenant shall deliver written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intent to exercise the Renewal Option granted herein (the “Renewal Request Notice”) not more than twelve (12) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Lease Term of this Lease. If Landlord and Tenant mutually agree, using their respective good faith efforts, in writing upon the base rent for the Renewal Term within thirty (30) days after written exercise by Tenant of this Renewal Option, Landlord shall lease the Premises to Tenant during the Renewal Term in their then-current, “AS IS, WHERE IS” with all faults condition, and Landlord shall not provide to Tenant any allowances (e.g. moving allowance, construction allowance, and the like) or other tenant inducements, except to the extent determined appropriate in connection with the determination of the Fair Market Base Rent. Tenant shall have no further renewal options unless expressly granted by Landlord in writing.

Fair Market Base Rent will take into account all relevant factors, including, without limitation: (1) the location, quality, size, condition, and age of the Building and the level of LEED® certification of the Building then in effect; (2) the use, location, size, and/or floor levels of the space in question, including view, elevator, lobby exposure, etc.; (3) definition of “rentable” area; (4) the extent of leasehold improvements in the space in question or to be provided (other than any improvements already installed in the Premises), and/or any allowance for same; (5) abatements (including base rental, operating expenses and real estate taxes, and parking charges); (6) the parking rates set forth in Landlord’s rent proposal, the parking rates charged for comparable parking for tenants in comparable buildings and inclusion and/or exclusion of parking charges in rental; (7) lease takeovers and assumptions; (8) programming/space planning/interior architecture and engineering allowances; (9) relocation allowances; (10) tenant improvement allowances or refurbishment allowances, including those set forth in Landlord’s rent proposal; (11) distinction between “gross” and “net” leases; (12) base year or dollar amounts for escalation purposes (both ad valorem/real estate taxes and other operating expenses); (13) any other

adjustments (including, for example, indices) to base rental; (14) credit standing and financial stature of Tenant (or the applicable transferee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer) and any applicable tenants; (15) term or length of lease; (16) the time the particular rental rate under consideration was agreed upon or is to become effective and the period of time from the date such rate is determined to the date it will be effective; (17) the extent of services provided or to be provided; (18) inclusions and exclusions for operating expenses; (19) the total amount of space in the Building leased to Tenant; (20) presence, absence or amount of leasing commissions to the extent applicable; and (21) any other concession or inducement and/or relevant terms or conditions that a reasonable and knowledgeable real estate professional would include in making such fair value rental rate determination. The determination of Fair Market Base Rent will not take into account any transaction that is not a typical market-driven transaction, such as a sale-leaseback or any financing type lease transaction.

(b) In the event Tenant fails to deliver the Renewal Request Notice within the time period set forth above, time being of the essence with respect to Tenant’s exercise thereof, Tenant’s right to extend the Lease Term hereof shall automatically terminate, be null and void, and be of no further force and effect. In the event Landlord and Tenant fail to mutually agree, using their respective good faith efforts, in writing upon the Fair Market Base Rent for the Renewal Term within thirty (30) days after timely written exercise by Tenant of this Renewal Option (“Negotiation Deadline”), Tenant’s right hereunder to extend the Lease Term shall automatically terminate (subject to subparagraph (c) below), be null and void, and be of no further force and effect.

(c) If Tenant desires to continue with the extension, Tenant must deliver notice to Landlord of its desire to pursue “baseball arbitration” on or before the Negotiation Deadline. No later than five (5) business days thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall meet in an effort to negotiate, in good faith, the Fair Market Base Rent applicable to the Premises. If Landlord and Tenant have not agreed upon the Fair Market Base Rent applicable to the Premises within five (5) business days after meeting, then Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a broker not later than forty-five (45) days following Landlord’s delivery of the rate notice. If Landlord’s broker and Tenant’s broker have failed to agree upon the Fair Market Base Rent within sixty (60) days following delivery of the Negotiation Deadline, the two appointed brokers shall appoint a third broker (within five (5) business days following the expiration of said sixty (60) day period), and the Fair Market Base Rent shall be the arithmetic average of two (2) of the three (3) determinations which are the closest in amount, and the third determination shall be disregarded. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint a broker within the prescribed time period, the failing party shall pay to the other party as liquidated damages $100.00 per day for each day following the deadline that such party fails to appoint a broker, not to exceed $500.00. If the two (2) appointed brokers fail to agree upon a third (3rd) broker, then the parties shall have the local office of the American Arbitration Association (or alternative method agreed by the parties) appoint the third (3rd) broker and the parties shall share equally in the cost of such arbitration. Each party shall bear the costs of its own broker, and the parties shall share equally the cost of the third broker, if applicable. Each broker shall have at least ten (10) years’ experience in the leasing of similar commercial buildings in the submarket in which the Building is located and shall be a licensed real estate broker and has not represented Tenant or Landlord during the previous five (5) year period.

3. RIGHT OF REFUSAL (ONGOING).

(a) Grant of Right of Refusal. During the initial Lease Term, and for only so long as that the Renewal Option has not lapsed, then subject to the provisions as hereinafter set forth, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an ongoing right of refusal (“Right of Refusal”) to lease from Landlord the remaining space on the fourth (4th) floor of the Building (“Refusal Space”).

(b) Third Party Offer; Exercise Notice. Subject to the terms and provisions of Section 3(a) above, if Landlord desires to accept a bona fide offer from a third party which has been provided and accepted by a third party in writing (“Third Party Offer”) to lease the Refusal Space or a portion thereof, Landlord shall first give to Tenant notice that Landlord has received such Third Party Offer, as well as a copy of the Third Party Offer (“Third Party Offer Notice”). Tenant may exercise the Right of Refusal by giving Landlord written notice (“Exercise Notice”) within ten (10) days after the date of the Third Party Offer Notice of Tenant’s desire to lease that portion of the Refusal Space set forth in the Third Party Offer. Hereinafter the term “Refusal Space” shall be and shall mean the Refusal Space or portion thereof set forth in the Third Party Offer.

(c) Expansion Amendment. After receipt of the Exercise Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment of the Lease “Expansion Amendment” acceptable to Landlord and Tenant. Such Expansion Amendment shall provide that from and after the applicable date on which the Refusal Space is leased by Tenant, as set forth in the Third Party Offer (“Expansion Commencement Date”), the Lease shall be deemed modified as follows.

(i) Base Rent for the Refusal Space shall be as set forth in the Third Party Offer;

(ii) Tenant’s Share applicable to the Refusal Space shall be a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of rentable square feet in the Refusal Space and the denominator of which shall be the number of rentable square feet in the Building (as both shall be reasonably determined by Landlord utilizing the same methodology as used to measure the Premises);

(iii) Tenant shall accept the Refusal Space in the time, condition and manner described in the Third Party Offer;

(iv) Tenant’s lease of the Refusal Space shall be for the term set forth in the Third Party Offer (provided, however, if the term of the Refusal Space is shorter than the term of the Premises, or if the term of the Premises is shorter than the term of the Refusal Space, Tenant may elect to extend the term of the Refusal Space or Premises by simultaneous written notice to Landlord so the term of both the Refusal Space and the Premises are coterminous, and the Fair Market Base Rent shall be determined in accordance with Section 2 above);

(v) All other applicable terms and conditions of the Third Party Offer shall modify the Lease; and

(vi) For all purposes under the Lease, other than for the applicable calculations set forth above, the term “Premises” shall be deemed to include the Refusal Space.

(d) Subordination. Tenant’s Right of Refusal shall be subordinate to Landlord’s right to renew any tenant then occupying any portion of the Refusal Space, as well as the existing rights of Mercuria and Bridgeway, both of which have a right of refusal with respect to the Refusal Space.

(e) Failure to Exercise. If Tenant does not exercise its Right of Refusal in the time and manner set forth herein, the Right of Refusal shall be deemed terminated and of no further force or effect. Notwithstanding the prior sentence to the contrary, however, after the expiration of six (6) months following the date of each of Tenant’s refusal or failure to accept or exercise its right of first refusal as herein provided, Tenant shall thereafter, subject to the provisions of this Section, receive written notice from Landlord of Landlord’s bona fide intent, and the terms and conditions thereof, to lease to particular tenant prospects the Refusal Space or any portions thereof not leased or otherwise encumbered. If Landlord desires to lease such Refusal Space at a Net Effective Rental Rate (hereinafter defined) less than ninety percent (90%) of the Net Effective Rental Rate offered to Tenant in the related Third Party Offer Notice or the size or configuration of the Refusal Space changes in any material respect, then such space shall again be offered to Tenant by a new Offer Space Notice hereunder on such lower terms or adjusted Refusal Space. As used herein, the term “Net Effective Rental Rate” shall mean the net rental rate payable to Landlord under a lease net of all tenant inducements (e.g., tenant improvement allowances, rental abatements, moving allowances), with the cost of such tenant inducements, together with interest thereon at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, amortized over the term of such Lease.

(f) No Default. Tenant may exercise the Right of Refusal, and an exercise thereof shall only be effective, provided that Tenant is not in default at the time of exercise beyond any applicable notice or cure period.

(g) Not Transferable. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Right of Refusal shall be deemed personal to Tenant and other than in connection with a Permitted Transfer, if Tenant subleases, assigns or otherwise transfers any interests hereunder to any person or entity prior to the exercise of the Right of Refusal, the Right of Refusal shall lapse and be forever waived.

4. SIGNS. Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall provide standard building signage on the Building directory and the entry to the Premises. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, may install its name and logo in the reception area of the Premises, subject to Landlord’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. So long as Tenant (but not an assignee or sublessee, other than an assignee of this Lease, or sublease of the Premises, made in connection with a Permitted Transfer) leases at least 19,883 rentable square feet of space in the Building, Landlord will permit Tenant to place its signage on one line of the multi-tenant monument for the Building (on a basis of joint identification with other tenants and occupants). All costs associated with the fabrication, installation, maintenance, removal and replacement of Tenant’s signage on the pylon sign shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. Tenant shall maintain such signage in good condition and repair. Tenant shall remove such signage and repair any damage caused thereby, at its sole cost and expense, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease. The color, content, size and other specifications of any such signage shall be subject to Landlord’s prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Further, Tenant shall ensure that all signage complies with any and all applicable local zoning codes and building regulations.

5. LETTER OF CREDIT. In addition and without limitation to any other security deposit or other security held by Landlord, simultaneously with the full execution hereof, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a clean, unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit automatically renewing on an annual basis, in the initial amount of Seven Hundred Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($700,000.00), which letter of credit shall be substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit E and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Letter of Credit”). The Letter of Credit shall be issued by a financial institution pre-approved and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, such approval and acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed, and without limitation to the generality of foregoing, the issuer of the Letter of Credit shall at all times maintain a credit rating of at least AA- by Standard & Poors or Aa3 by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ rating, or such other financial institution approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord approves Texas Capital Bank as the issuer of the Letter of Credit so long as it retains a minimum rating of BBB by Standard & Poors. In the event that the issuer at any time fall below such credit rating, Landlord may elect to have the Letter of Credit reissued (within thirty (30) days following delivery of a written demand for re-issuance) by another financial institution pre-approved and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, such approval and acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld conditioned or delayed. Other than transfer fees payable in connection with a transfer of the Letter of Credit by Landlord, all charges under the Letter of Credit are to be paid by the Tenant.

The beneficiary shall be an entity named by Landlord. The Letter of Credit shall provide for written notice of non-renewal to be sent directly to the Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to such renewal date and the expiration date contained in the Letter of Credit shall be a date no earlier than thirty (30) days following the Expiration Date. The letter of credit shall contain a provision whereby the bank agrees to pay the sight draft or give notice of discrepancies on the date of presentation and waives any right to wait five banking days pursuant to Article 16 of the ICC Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision).

The Letter of Credit shall permit partial draws. Further, the Letter of Credit shall permit the beneficiary to transfer the Letter of Credit to a subsequent owner or beneficiary, and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from further liability with respect to the Letter of Credit.

Tenant hereby acknowledges that the security provided by the Letter of Credit is provided as a continuing material inducement to the Landlord, is provided as current and ongoing value to the Landlord, and constitutes an ongoing contemporaneous exchange for new value given for the Tenant’s tenancy throughout the Term of the Lease, as may be extended as provided in the Lease.

The face amount of the Letter of Credit shall decline by One Hundred Forty Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($140,000.00) on each anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date; however, the final reduction date and final expiration date of the Letter of Credit shall not occur until thirty (30) days following the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the face amount of the Letter of Credit shall cease to decline for the balance of the Term of the Lease upon any event of a monetary default beyond any applicable notice and cure period, notice of which may be delivered to the issuing bank by Landlord. Further, in connection with any payment of Rent (as opposed to a monetary default beyond any applicable notice and cure period as set forth in the preceding sentence) that is overdue in excess of three (3) days, any applicable reduction effective date shall be delayed until such time as Tenant has not been late in the payment of Rent on more than one

(1) occasion in the previous six (6) month period. In the event that the foregoing reduction schedule is delayed and extended, the parties will cooperate in good faith, at no cost to Landlord, to have the issuer either amend the existing Letter of Credit or issue a new Letter of Credit.

At any time that a monetary default beyond any applicable notice and cure period occurs, Landlord (or the beneficiary) shall in its discretion have the right and option to draw down the Letter of Credit in the amount to cure the applicable default and apply the proceeds or any part thereof to any applicable amounts owed to Landlord. Landlord (or the beneficiary) shall also have the right to draw down the entire Letter of Credit in the event Landlord does not receive notice that the date of expiry of the Letter of Credit will be extended by the issuing bank and Tenant fails to obtain and present to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit a substitute Letter of Credit, in which event the proceeds will be held pursuant to Section 3 of the Lease. If Landlord shall have drawn down the Letter of Credit and applied all or a portion, then Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, within five (5) business days after notice from Landlord, an amount of cash sufficient to bring the balance of the cash then being held by Landlord under the terms hereof to the amount of the required then face amount of the Letter of Credit. The failure by Tenant to deposit such additional amount within the foregoing time period shall be deemed a default pursuant to the Lease. The Letter of Credit shall not in any way limit any liability of Tenant under the Lease, as hereby amended, nor shall the Letter of Credit be deemed to be “liquidated damages.” If claims of the Landlord exceed the amount of the Letter of Credit, Tenant shall remain liable for the balance of such claims.

EXHIBIT “B”

RULES AND AGREED REGULATIONS

The following rules and regulations shall apply to the Premises, the Building, the Land and the appurtenances thereto:

EXHIBIT “C”

WORK LETTER

This is the Work Letter referred to in and specifically made a part of the Lease to which this Exhibit C is annexed, covering the Premises, as more particularly described in the Lease. Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. The following defined terms shall have the meaning set forth below and, unless provided to the contrary herein, the remaining defined terms shall have the meaning set forth in the Lease:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Tenant designates a qualified third party construction manager to supervise the Work, subject to Landlord prior approval not to be unreasonably withheld, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a supervision fee in the amount of $150.00 an hour, not to exceed $5,000.00. Landlord hereby approves ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of Texas, Inc. as Tenant’s qualified third party construction manager to supervise the Work. Tenant may utilize the allowance to pay Tenant’s construction manager, as well as Landlord’s supervision/Construction Management Fee, as applicable.

2. Landlord’s Work. Subject to the remaining terms and provisions of this Lease, Tenant accepts the Premises in its current “AS IS” condition and acknowledges that Landlord shall have no obligation to do any work in or on the Premises to render it ready for Tenant’s use or occupancy.

3. Tenant Improvements. The “Tenant Improvements” shall mean the interior walls, partitions, doors, door hardware, wall coverings, wall base, counters, lighting fixtures, electrical and telephone wiring (from the point of general supply to all tenants on the floor of the Building upon which the Premises is located), voice and data cabling and wiring for phones and computers, metering (if applicable) and outlets, ceiling grid and tiles, floor and window coverings, HVAC system (from the point of general supply to all tenants on the floor of the Building upon which the

Premises is located, as well as supplemental HVAC on the roof of the Building or other location approved by Landlord, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), furniture, additional plumbing for the Premises, and other items of general applicability that Tenant desires to be installed in the interior of the Premises. Tenant shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute to full completion Tenant’s Work in accordance with the Drawings. The parties agree that no demolition work or other Tenant’s Work shall be commenced on the Premises until such time as Tenant has provided to Landlord copies of the demolition and building permits required to be obtained from all applicable governmental authorities and all other conditions precedent have been fully satisfied. All materials, work, installations, equipment and decorations of any nature whatsoever brought on or installed in the Premises before the commencement of the Term or during the Term shall be at Tenant’s risk, and neither Landlord nor any party acting on Landlord’s behalf shall be responsible for any damage thereto or loss or destruction thereof due to any reason or cause whatsoever, excluding by reason of Landlord’s gross negligence or willful or criminal misconduct.

4. Drawings. Tenant shall engage and pay for the services of a licensed architect to prepare a space layout, drawings and specifications for all Tenant Improvements (the “Drawings”), which architect shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval (the “Architect”). Landlord hereby approves STG Design as the Architect. Tenant shall devote such time in consultation with the Architect as shall be necessary to enable the Architect to develop complete and detailed architectural, mechanical and engineering drawings and specifications, as necessary, for the construction of Tenant Improvements, showing thereon all Tenant Improvements, as consistent with industry standard. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that it is Tenant’s sole and exclusive responsibility to cause the Tenant Improvements to comply with all applicable laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and other ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction thereof.

5. Landlord’s Approval. On or before the applicable Time Limit set forth below, Tenant shall submit to Landlord an electronic PDF copy, electronic CAD copy and hard copy of the complete and final Drawings for Tenant Improvements. The Drawings shall be subject to the approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Landlord should disapprove such Drawings, Landlord shall specify in writing to Tenant the reasons for its disapproval and Tenant shall cause the same to be revised to meet the Landlord and Tenant’s mutual reasonable satisfaction and shall resubmit the same to Landlord, as so revised, on or before the applicable Time Limit set forth below. Unless a shorter time period is required herein, if Landlord fails to respond to any request for approval within five (5) business days (or ten (10) business days with respect to the initial construction drawings), Tenant may thereafter send a second written request for approval to Landlord and if Landlord fails to respond to such second request within an additional three (3) business days, then so long as the subject of the request does not materially and adversely affect the structural elements of the Building or areas outside of the Premises, then such request shall be deemed to be approved; otherwise, there shall be a “Landlord Delay” which will continue until such time as Landlord has responded to such request for approval.

6. Changes. Tenant may request reasonable changes in the Drawings; provided, however, that (a) no change shall be made to the Drawings without Landlord’s Representative’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (b) no such request shall effect any structural change in the Building (unless approved by Landlord) or

otherwise render the Premises or Building in violation of applicable laws; (c) Tenant shall pay any additional costs required to implement such change, including, without limitation, architecture and other consultant fees incurred by Tenant, and increases in construction costs, all of which may be paid for out of the Allowance; and (d) such requests shall constitute an agreement by Tenant to any delay in completion caused by Landlord’s reviewing, and processing such change, subject to the remaining terms and provisions hereof. If Tenant requests or causes any change, addition or deletion to the Premises to be necessary after approval of the Drawings, a request for the change shall be submitted to Landlord’s Representative, accompanied by revised plans prepared by the Architect, all at Tenant’s sole expense, which expenses may be paid for out of the Allowance, subject to the limitations set forth above.

7. Tenant’s Work. It is understood and agreed by the parties that, as hereinafter set forth, Tenant has elected to retain a general contractor and arrange for the construction and installation of Tenant Improvements itself in a good and workmanlike manner (“Tenant’s Work”). On or before the applicable Time Limit set forth below, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the names of the general contractor (to the extent other than the general contractor approved above), electrical, ventilation, plumbing and heating subcontractors (hereinafter “Major Subcontractors”), as applicable, for Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Landlord shall reject any Major Subcontractor, Landlord shall advise Tenant of the reason(s) in writing and, Tenant shall choose another Major Subcontractor. Prior to commencement of construction of Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall notify Landlord of its estimate of the total costs for Tenant’s Work.

8. Tenant’s Construction of Tenant Improvements.

(a) Payment; Liens. Tenant shall promptly pay any and all costs and expenses in connection with or arising out of the performance of Tenant Improvements and shall furnish to Landlord evidence of such payment upon request. In the event any lien is filed against the Building or any portion thereof or against Tenant’s leasehold interest therein, the provisions of Article 20 of the Lease shall apply.

(b) Indemnity. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all suits, claims, actions, loss, cost or expense (including claims for workers’ compensation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) based on personal injury or property damage (subject to the terms and provisions of Section 9.D hereof) caused in, or contract claims (including, but not limited to claims for breach of warranty) arising from Tenant’s Work. Subject to the terms and provisions of Section 9.D hereof, Tenant shall repair or replace (or, at Landlord’s election, reimburse Landlord for the reasonable cost of repairing or replacing) any portion of the Building or item of Landlord’s equipment or any of Landlord’s real or personal property damaged, lost or destroyed in the construction of Tenant Improvements by or on behalf of Tenant.

(c) Contractors. The Major Subcontractors employed by Tenant and any subcontractors thereof shall be (i) duly licensed in the state in which the Premises are located, to the extent required by applicable law, and (ii) except as otherwise approved herein, subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. On or before commencement of any construction activity in the Premises, Tenant and Tenant’s contractors shall obtain and provide Landlord with certificates evidencing Workers’

Compensation, public liability and property damage insurance in amounts and forms and with companies reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. If Landlord should disapprove such insurance, Landlord shall specify to Tenant the reasons for its disapproval within five (5) business days after delivery of such certificates. Tenant’s agreement with its contractors shall require such contractors to provide daily clean-up of the construction area to the extent such clean-up is necessitated by the construction of Tenant Work, and to take reasonable steps to minimize interference with other tenants’ use and occupancy of the Building. Nothing contained herein shall make or constitute Tenant as the agent of Landlord. Tenant and Tenant’s contractors shall comply with any other reasonable rules, regulations or requirements that Landlord may impose.

(d) Use of Common Areas. During the construction period of Tenant’s Work and during the installation of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures and equipment, Tenant shall be allowed to use, at no cost to Tenant, a freight elevator for the purpose of hoisting materials, equipment and personnel to the Premises. Also during the construction period, Tenant shall ensure that the Building and all common areas and the Premises are kept in a clean and safe condition at all times. After hours construction activities by Tenant outside of the Premises shall require reimbursement to Landlord for its costs for after-hours security (the charge of which is the hourly rate of the security guard plus fifteen percent (15%) with a four (4) hour minimum), which amount shall be in addition to the Construction Management Fee. Further, all construction activities shall be conducted so as to use reasonable efforts to minimize interference with the use and occupancy of the Building by the tenants thereof. Such entry shall be deemed to be under all the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions of the Lease, other than Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease.

(e) Coordination. All work performed by Tenant shall be coordinated with Landlord’s Representative. Tenant shall timely notify and invite Landlord’s Representative to all construction meetings (with contractors, engineers, architects and others), and supply all documentation reasonably requested by Landlord’s Representative.

(f) Assumption of Risk. All materials, work, installations, equipment and decorations of any nature whatsoever brought on or installed in the Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Work Letter before the commencement of the Term or throughout the Term shall be at Tenant’s risk, and neither Landlord nor any party acting on Landlord’s behalf shall be responsible for any damage thereto or loss or destruction thereof due to any reason or cause whatsoever, excluding by reason of Landlord or such other party’s gross negligence or willful or criminal misconduct.

9. Time Limits. The following maximum time limits and periods shall be allowed for the indicated matters:

Except as may be otherwise specifically provided for herein, in all instances where either Tenant’s or Landlord’s approval is required, if no written notice of disapproval is given within the applicable Time Limit, at the end of such period the applicable party shall be deemed to have given its approval and the next succeeding time period shall commence. Any delay by Tenant in any of the foregoing dates (including any “re-do”, continuation or abatement of any item due to Tenant’s or Landlord’s disapproval thereof) shall automatically delay all subsequent deadlines by a like amount of time.

10. Allowance.

(a) Landlord shall contribute to the costs and expenses of all costs for the planning, design, permitting, construction and construction management of the Tenant Improvements, in an amount not to exceed Allowance. If the final costs for Tenant’s Work exceed Allowance, those Excess Costs shall be paid by Tenant. Provided this Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default hereunder beyond any applicable notice and cure period, Landlord shall pay the Allowance to Tenant consistent with the terms and conditions of this Section.

(b) The Allowance shall be payable to Tenant upon written requisition (“Draw Request”) in installments as the Tenant’s Work progresses, but in no event more frequently than on one (1) occasion during any thirty (30) day period. Landlord may withhold ten percent (10%) of the Allowance (on each Draw Request) until such time as Landlord has received the final Draw Request. The amount of each installment of the Allowance payable pursuant to any such Draw Request shall be an amount equal to the actual costs paid by Tenant for completed portions of the Tenant’s Work referenced in such Draw Request (as evidenced by the paid invoices delivered to Landlord in accordance with the next sentence), less the applicable retainage. Prior to the release of any such installment, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord such Draw Request which shall be accompanied by (i) paid invoices for the Tenant’s Work performed since the last disbursement subject to customary retentions; (ii) a certificate signed by the Architect or Tenant’s Representative certifying that the Tenant’s Work represented by the aforesaid invoices has been satisfactorily completed in accordance with the Drawings; and (iii) partial lien waivers by the general contractor and all Major Subcontractors for work covered by the prior disbursement. Upon Landlord’s receipt and approval of the Draw Request, Landlord shall disburse the Allowance less the allocable portion of the Construction Management Fee. Payment by Landlord shall be made within thirty (30) days, unless Landlord notifies Tenant, in writing, of its rejection (and the reasons therefor) of any or all of the Draw Request. To the extent Landlord does not so reject any portion of said Draw Request, Landlord shall timely pay such acceptable portion of the Draw Request.

(c) Following the Substantial Completion Date (as defined below), Tenant shall submit to Landlord Tenant’s 42 final Draw Request which shall include (i) “as built” drawings showing all of Tenant’s Work, (ii) a detailed breakdown of Tenant’s final and total construction costs, together with receipted invoices showing payment thereof, (iii) a certified, written statement from the Architect that all of Tenant’s Work has been completed in accordance with the Drawings, (iv) supporting final lien waivers, and releases executed by the General Contractor, and the Major Subcontractors, and (v) a copy of a certificate of occupancy or temporary certificate of occupancy required with respect to the Premises, if applicable, together with all licenses, certificates, permits and other government authorizations necessary in connection with Tenant’s Work. Upon Landlord’s receipt and approval of the final Draw Request, Landlord shall disburse the Allowance less the Construction Management Fee. Payment of the final Draw Request by Landlord shall be made within thirty (30) days, unless Landlord notifies Tenant, in writing, of its rejection (and the reasons therefor) of any or all of the final Draw Request. To the extent Landlord does not so reject any portion of said Draw Request, Landlord shall timely pay such acceptable portion of the final Draw Request.

11. Substantial Completion. Tenant Improvements shall be deemed substantially complete when all work called for by the Drawings has been finished and the Premises is ready to be used and occupied by Tenant, even though minor items may remain to be installed, finished or corrected (“Substantial Completion Date” or the “Date of Substantial Completion”). Tenant shall cause the contractors to diligently complete any items of work not completed when the Premises are substantially complete. In the event of any dispute as to substantial completion of Tenant Improvements, the statement of Landlord’s construction manager shall be conclusive. Substantial completion shall have occurred notwithstanding punch list items. Promptly after the Substantial Completion Date, the parties will execute an instrument in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2 setting forth the Commencement Date of the Lease, so that said date is certain and such instrument, when executed, is hereby made a part of this Lease and incorporated herein by reference. NO

DELAY IN THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE SHALL CAUSE THE RENT COMMENCEMENT DATE TO BE DELAYED; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, TO THE EXTENT THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE DOES NOT OCCUR BY MAY 1, 2015, AND SUCH DELAY IS DUE TO A LANDLORD DELAY, THEN THE RENT COMMENCEMENT DATE SHALL BE DELAYED BY THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME AS THE LANDLORD DELAY. MOREOVER, IF THE LANDLORD DELAY CAUSES THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE TO EXTEND BEYOND JUNE 1, 2015, THEN IN ADDITION TO THE EXTENSION OF THE RENT COMMENCEMENT DATE, TENANT SHALL ALSO BE ENTITLED TO ONE (1) ADDITIONAL DAY OF ABATED BASE RENT FOR EACH DAY THAT THE LANDLORD DELAY CAUSES THE SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION DATE TO EXTEND BEYOND JUNE 1, 2015.

12. No Representations or Warranties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease or herein, Landlord’s participation in the preparation of the Drawings, the cost estimates for Tenant and the construction of Tenant Improvements and/or Tenant Improvements shall not constitute any representation or warranty, express or implied, that (i) the Drawings are in conformity with applicable governmental codes, regulations or rules or (ii) Tenant Improvements, if built in accordance with the Drawings, will be suitable for Tenant’s intended purpose. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant Improvements are intended for use by Tenant and the specification and design requirements for such improvements are not within the special knowledge or experience of Landlord. Landlord’s obligations shall be to review the Drawings; and any additional cost or expense required for the modification thereof to more adequately meet Tenant’s use, whether during or after construction thereof, shall be borne entirely by Tenant.

COMMISSION AGREEMENT

THIS COMMISSION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is dated for identification purposes as of October 31, 2013, and sets forth the agreement entered into by and between 20 Greenway Plaza, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of Texas, Inc. (“Outside Broker”), concerning the payment of a commission in consideration for Outside Broker’s services rendered in connection with the Lease described herein.

WHEREAS, Outside Broker has assisted or is assisting Landlord in negotiating and consummating a proposed Lease Agreement (“Lease”) by and between Landlord and Sunnova Financial Services or affiliate thereof as Tenant Prospect (“Tenant Prospect”), regarding the lease of approximately 19,833 rentable square feet of space commonly referred to as Suite 475 (“Premises) within the building located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Project”); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby stipulated and agreed as follows:

I. Exclusive Broker. Outside Broker represents and warrants to Landlord that Outside Broker is the sole broker who introduced the Tenant Prospect to Premises and is the sole broker (other than Landlord’s agent) entitled to receive a commission in connection with the Lease.

2. Gross Rent. Any commission due to Outside Broker shall be based upon Gross Rent. “Gross Rent” shall mean base rental plus the operating expenses (operating expenses shall be based on Landlord’s current estimate of operating expense for calendar year 2014, which is $12.23 per rentable square foot of space within the Premises per year multiplied by number of years (prorated for any partial year) within the term of the Lease). Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, the following shall be excluded from Gross. Rent for the purpose of commission calculation hereunder: (a) Escalations in Base Rent to the extent due to consumer price index adjustments or percentage Gross Rent, or due to the amortization of excess tenant finish allowances amortized therein; (b) Additional rent paid by Tenant Prospect for special tenant services over and above building standard services; (c) Amortization of special leasehold improvements paid for by Landlord and specifically reimbursed by Tenant Prospect by way of additional rental; (d) Amounts paid by Landlord but reimbursable by Tenant through rent or otherwise; (e) Gross Rent or other payments for parking, storage, roof top rights, or other amenities (whether paid separately or included in the rental); (f) Late payment charges or interest; (g) Rental payable upon continuation of tenancy subsequent to lease expiration or termination due to holdover; (h) Taxes imposed by any governmental authority on the rent(s) collected by Landlord; (i) Security deposits paid by Tenant Prospect pursuant to the terms of the Lease; or 0) any abated rent, free rent periods or amounts reduced.

3. Commission. Outside Broker has earned, upon execution by Landlord and Tenant, and shall only be entitled to four percent (4%) of the total Gross Rent as hereafter payable for the initial term of the Lease.

4. Payment.

(a) Commission shall be paid in the following manner: (i) one-half (1/2) within thirty (30) days following the full execution of the Lease by Landlord and Tenant Prospect, delivery thereof to both parties, receipt by Landlord of the first full month’s rent if required at execution, and receipt by Landlord of any security deposit as provided for in the Lease; and (ii) the balance within thirty (30) days following the Commencement Date of Tenant Prospect’s Lease agreement.

(b) Landlord will not be required to pay any of the commissions due hereunder until contingencies relating to the actual consummation or cancellation prior to commencement of the Lease by Tenant Prospect (including but not limited to contingencies regarding zoning, restrictive covenants, permitting, plan approvals and finish cost limits) are eliminated or satisfied to the Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. In addition, for build-to-suit facilities, no commission will be payable until Landlord has received interim financing for the Project.

(c) If Tenant Prospect individually has the right to cancel or terminate the Lease (for reasons unrelated to casualty, condemnation, default and the like), a commission shall only be paid to Outside Broker for the period up to the date on which the Lease may be cancelled. If the Lease is not then cancelled, Landlord shall pay the balance of the commission due for the remainder of the period covered under the Lease at the time the Tenant Prospect’s right to cancel expires. A lease will be deemed canceled only if the tenant vacates the premises. If a lease is terminated or amended and tenant remains under a new or different arrangement, Outside Broker shall be paid the balance of its commission. If a cancellation payment includes the unamortized commission, then Outside Broker will be paid a full commission as if no right of cancellation existed.

(d) If a lease contains an option or other right to renew or extend the term or to lease additional space, and if the lease is renewed or extended or if Tenant leases additional space, whether or not strictly pursuant to the option or right contained in the lease, Landlord shall pay to Outside Broker, an additional commission at the above rate for the renewal or extension term, or for such additional space provided that (i) Broker is then the only real estate broker or agent representing Tenant entitled to a commission, as evidenced by a written statement from Tenant either contained within the amendment or new Lease or a separate document reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, and (ii) Broker is actively involved in such expansion or renewal. Such commission shall be payable 50% upon execution of such amendment or new lease and the remaining 50% upon the commencement of such renewal or expansion. No commissions will be payable for space and term for which Broker has already been paid (such as if there is a “blend and extend”).

5. Confidentiality and Advertisement. Except as required by law, Outside Broker acknowledges and agrees that all material information which Outside Broker shall receive in connection with the Lease shall be confidential, and Outside Broker shall not disclose such information to any party (other than Tenant Prospect), including, but not limited to, any advertising or permitting to be advertised the Lease transaction, or placing, or permitting to be placed, any notice thereof in any newspaper or other publication, without Landlord’s prior written consent and/or approval as to the contents thereof in each instance. All plans, specifications, leases and the like delivered to Outside Broker or Tenant Prospect shall remain the property of the Landlord and be returned to Landlord upon request.

6. Licensed. Outside Broker hereby represents and warrants to Landlord that Outside Broker is, and shall remain during the term hereof, a duly licensed real estate broker in the jurisdiction where the Premises are located, and is therefore legally entitled to receive the commission payments as set forth hereunder, said licensing and legal entitlement being in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, ordinances and otherwise.

7. Limitation of Liability. OUTSIDE BROKER EXPRESSLY AGREES THAT THE OBLIGATIONS INCURRED BY LANDLORD OR ANY SUCCESSOR OR ASSIGNEE OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE PERSONAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, TRUSTEES, PARTNERS, JOINT VENTURERS, MEMBERS, STOCKHOLDERS, OR OTHER PRINCIPALS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF LANDLORD. OUTSIDE BROKER SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO LANDLORD’S INTEREST IN THE PREMISES (INCLUDING THE PROCEEDS THEREOF) FOR THE RECOVERY OF ANY JUDGMENT AGAINST LANDLORD FOR FAILURE TO PERFORM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. OUTSIDE BROKER HEREBY WAIVES CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, AND SIMILAR DAMAGES AGAINST LANDLORD. UPON THE SALE OF THE BUILDING IN WHICH THE PREMISES IS LOCATED, LANDLORD SHALL HAVE NO FURTHER OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND OUTSIDE BROKER SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO THE TRANSFEREE FOR ANY COMPENSATION HEREUNDER, EXCEPT FOR COMMISSIONS THAT HAVE THEN BEEN EARNED AND HAVE ACCRUED, BUT NOT YET PAID (FOR WHICH LANDLORD SHALL REMAIN LIABLE).

8. Miscellaneous. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS. JURISDICTION AND VENUE FOR ANY ACTION HEREUNDER SHALL BE EXCLUSIVELY IN THE COUNTY WHERE THE REAL PROPERTY IS LOCATED IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. This instrument constitutes the entire agreement between the Landlord and the Outside Broker as relates to the performance by Outside Broker of the duties hereunder. No prior written or prior oral promises or representations shall be binding. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns of the parties, but Outside Broker may not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Landlord.

Landlord hereby acknowledges that under Chapter 62, Texas Property Code, Outside Broker is entitled to claim and levy a lien against the Project to secure payment of any earned but unpaid commission. If either party institutes legal action to enforce its rights hereunder, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred. Any portion of a commission not paid to Outside Broker when due will bear interest from the due date until paid at the legal rate of interest.

9. Acceptance. This agreement is intended to be an offer, and if not accepted and returned to Landlord in writing within three (3) business days from the date hereon, it is hereby withdrawn. If not received by said date, this offer is null and void. This agreement is not valid unless fully signed by both Landlord and Outside Broker.

10. OFAC. Without limitation to the generality of any requirement under this agreement for Outside Broker to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, executive orders, and requirements promulgated by governmental entities, Outside Broker shall comply with all (i) regulations promulgated by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury which are applicable to Tenant or any occupant of the Premises, (ii) the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §1701 et seq., (iii) The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and (iv) the September 24, 2001 Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism. Any failure by Outside Broker to comply with such laws shall be deemed to be a material default under this agreement.

EXECUTED BY LANDLORD this 2^nd day of September, 2014.
