In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

LEASE TERMS AND DEFINITIONS

1.1 Industrial Park. All the land and improvements which make up the designated real estate of approximately sixty-five (65) acres (the “Real Estate”) located in the industrial development area commonly known as ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ (the “Industrial Park”) located on County Road 1000 S, Monrovia, Indiana, which Real Estate is legally described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, and shown on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit B and made a part hereof (the “Site Plan”). Any inconsistencies between Exhibit A and Exhibit B shall be governed by Exhibit B.

1.2 Leased Premises. The “Leased Premises” or “Premises” shall be the Real Estate, together with loading areas and other improvements to be constructed thereon in accordance with the terms hereof, including without limitation the warehouse and office building, containing approximately Five Hundred Forty Five Thousand Ten (545,010) square feet Floor Area (collectively, the “Building”), together with any trash compactor pad, dumpster pad, generator pad, loading dock areas and any other improvements at any time attached to or incorporated into the Real Estate, and any and all easements, rights and privileges granted herein or now or hereafter belonging or appurtenant to the Real Estate. The floor plan of the Building will be as shown on Exhibit B-1 attached hereto. Upon the completion of Landlord’s Work (hereinafter defined) pursuant to Article VI of this Lease, and prior to the Delivery Date (hereinafter defined), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a written statement from the licensed architect of record certifying the actual dimensions and square footage of the Floor Area of the Building.

1.3 Delivery Date.

(a) Landlord understands and acknowledges that Tenant intends to open the Leased Premises for the operation and conduct of its storage and distribution business on November 1, 2013. The “Delivery Date” shall be the date upon which all of the following conditions (collectively the “Delivery Conditions”) shall be completed or have occurred: (i) Landlord delivers actual possession of the Leased Premises to Tenant with Landlord’s Work “Substantially Completed” as defined below, broom clean and free of all construction tools and debris and free of all existing tenancies; (ii) Landlord shall

have delivered an A.I.A. Certificate of Substantial Completion signed by Landlord, its architect of record and its general contractor confirming all of the foregoing; (iii) Landlord shall have procured and delivered to Tenant a certificate of occupancy or other governmental approval sufficient to allow Tenant to enter the Premises to install its fixtures and store its merchandise; (iv) Landlord shall have provided Tenant the architect certificate required in Section 1.2; and (v) Landlord shall have given the Delivery Notice (hereinafter defined). Landlord agrees that the Delivery Date shall, in all events, be on or before November 1, 2013, subject to the provisions of Section 27.9. If Landlord fails to deliver the Leased Premises to Tenant with all of the Delivery Conditions completed by November 10, 2013, then Tenant shall be entitled as a credit against the first accruing Rents hereunder an amount equal to two day’s Base Rent hereunder per day for each day after November 10, 2013 and prior to December 1, 2013, in which the Delivery Conditions are not completed as liquidated damages (the “Late Delivery Credit”). In the event that the Delivery Date has not occurred by November 30, 2013, from and after December 1, 2013 until the Delivery Date, the Late Delivery Credit shall be increased for such period to an amount equal to three days Base Rent hereunder per each day from and including December 1, 2013 until the Delivery Date. Both parties acknowledge that if the actual Delivery Date does not occur on or before November 10, 2013, Tenant’s damages will be difficult, if not impossible to ascertain and the amount of liquidated damages set forth above is a reasonable estimate of the damages which would be suffered by Tenant. In the event that the Delivery Date is not on or before January 29, 2014, Tenant shall also have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord prior to the actual Delivery Date. If Tenant so terminates, then the liquidated damages described above will be calculated with reference to the date of termination rather than the actual Delivery Date and the amount so determined will be payable by Landlord to Tenant in cash (rather than a credit against Rent) upon demand, and such payment obligation shall survive the termination of the Lease and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under the Lease after the termination date. Tenant acknowledges that the remedies set forth in this subsection 1.3(a) are its sole and exclusive remedies for Landlord’s failure to deliver the Leased Premises to Tenant with all the Delivery Conditions completed by November 10, 2013.

(b) Delivery Notice. Landlord will notify Tenant in writing (“Delivery Notice”) of the date on which Landlord contemplates that all of the Delivery Conditions will be fulfilled. Landlord shall deliver the Delivery Notice to Tenant at least 90 days prior to, but no more than 120 days prior to, the date on which all of the Delivery Conditions will be fulfilled. If the Landlord fails to deliver the Delivery Notice at least ninety (90) days prior to the date on which all of the Delivery Conditions are actually fulfilled, then the Delivery Date will in any event be extended to at least the ninetieth (90th) day following the delivery of the Delivery Notice.

(c) Advance Possession. For a period commencing sixty (60) days prior to the Delivery Date until the actual Delivery Date, Tenant shall have the privilege of entering the Premises (free of rent and other charges) for purposes of inspecting the work, taking measurements, making plans, installing trade fixtures and equipment, storing merchandise and performing other construction activities. Tenant’s activities shall not create an unreasonable interference with Landlord’s Work. Under no circumstances shall such entry and activities of Tenant be construed as: delivery of possession by

Landlord or acceptance of possession by Tenant under the provisions of this Lease, or a waiver of any of the provisions hereof, or to obligate Tenant to pay any rent or other charges. Tenant’s rights under this Section 1.3 shall not give rise to any duty to inspect the work or notify Landlord of any defect in construction or other failure to comply with the requirements of the Lease. All fixtures, furniture, equipment and merchandise of Tenant placed within the Premises during the foregoing period shall at all times remain the property of Tenant and shall be stored at Tenant’s risk.

1.4 Rent Commencement Date. The “Rent Commencement Date” shall be November 1, 2013, subject to delay of one day for day after November 1, 2013, until the Delivery Date; provided the Rent Commencement Date shall not occur until such time as the Municipal Site Improvements set forth in Section 6.1 (b) have been completed.

1.5 Lease Term. The term “Lease Year,” as used herein, means a period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months; provided that the first Lease Year shall be a period of fourteen (14) months. The “Lease Term” or “Term” shall be for a period of one hundred eighty two (182) months from the Rent Commencement Date; provided, however, if any Option Period is exercised pursuant to Section 3.2, the “Lease Term” or “Term” shall include all exercised Option Periods. The first Lease Year shall begin on the Rent Commencement Date and shall end on the last day of the fourteenth (14^th) month following the Rent Commencement Date. Each succeeding Lease Year shall commence on the date next following the end of the prior Lease Year and end on the day preceding the anniversary of such commencement date.

1.6 Option Periods. “Option Periods” shall be three (3) successive periods of five (5) years each.

ARTICLE III

TERM

3.1 Lease Term. This Lease shall be for the Lease Term as set forth in Section 1.5. The Lease Term shall terminate at 11:59 p.m. (local time) of the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the fact that the Lease Term commences on the Rent Commencement Date, all terms and conditions of this Lease and all of the obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease other than the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent, and utilities are binding and of full force and effect from and after the date this Lease is executed by the parties, and Tenant’s liability for utilities and Additional Rent shall commence as of the Delivery Date.

3.2 Option to Extend the Lease Term.

(a) Tenant is granted the right and option to extend the Lease Term for up to three (3) successive Option Periods pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Provided that this Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not, at the time of the exercise of the option, in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant may exercise an option by notifying Landlord in writing no later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Expiration Date. Any Option Period shall be upon all of the terms and conditions as contained in this Lease. Upon exercise by Tenant of a renewal option under this Section 3.2, Landlord shall pay to Tenant on or before the commencement of the applicable Option Period, a refurbishment allowance of One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000).

(b) The Base Rent for an Option Period shall be adjusted to equal the amount which is ninety percent (90%) of “Fair Market Rent”, as defined below, at the beginning of such Option Period; provided, however, that such adjusted Base Rent shall not exceed the Base Rent in effect during the period which immediately precedes such Option Period multiplied by the amount which is the sum of one hundred percent (100%), plus two percent (2%) for each year of the prior Lease Period. “Fair Market Rent” shall mean the monthly amount that a willing, comparable, non-renewal and non-equity tenant would pay, and a willing, comparable landlord would accept in an arms’ length transaction for bulk distribution/warehouse space, giving appropriate consideration to typical lease terms, including, but not limited to, rental rates per rentable square foot, escalation clauses, operating expenses, real estate taxes, rent abatement, length of lease term, building size and location, tenant improvement allowances, relocation allowance,

and any other generally applicable terms, conditions and concessions being offered at the time of the exercise of the lease extension option. Landlord and Tenant shall attempt in good faith to agree to the Fair Market Rent within two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the commencement date of each Option Period (the “Option Rent Determination Period”). In the event that Landlord and Tenant cannot reach agreement as to Fair Market Rent during the first thirty (30) days of the Option Rent Determination Period (the “Initial Option Rent Determination Period”), the Fair Market Rent shall be determined in the following manner:

(i) Within five (5) days after the end of the Initial Option Rent Determination Period, each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to each other, in writing, its reasonable determination of the Fair Market Rent (the “Submitted Fair Market Rent”).

(ii) Within fifteen (15) days after such submission, Landlord and Tenant shall each select an appraiser of its choice to act as an arbitrator. If either of the Landlord or Tenant fails to name its appraiser within the fifteen (15) day period, the arbitrator timely appointed by the other party shall determine Fair Market Rent on its own, which determination shall be binding on the parties. If each party timely appoints its appraiser, the two (2) appraisers shall appoint a third appraiser within the next ten (10) days. Each appraiser selected under this Section 3.2 shall have an M.A.I. designation, be licensed in the State of Indiana, be disinterested, and be experienced in the appraisal of industrial rental property in the Indianapolis area. Each of Landlord and Tenant shall pay the cost of its own appraiser and half fifty percent (50%) of the cost of the third appraiser; provided, however, that if Tenant elects not to exercise its renewal option after the determination of the Fair Market Rent, Tenant shall also pay for the appraiser costs otherwise payable by Landlord under this paragraph (ii).

(iii) The three (3) appointed arbitrators shall, within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third appraiser, determine the Fair Market Rent for the Premises and whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s Submitted Fair Market Rent was the closer thereto (the “Closer Submitted Fair Market Rent”). The Closer Submitted Fair Market Rent shall be the basis for determining Base Rent during the Option Period in accordance with Subsection 3.2(b) above. The decision of the arbitrators as to Fair Market Rent and the Closer Submitted Fair Market Rent shall be binding on the parties.

(iv) Upon determination of the Fair Market Rent and the applicable Base Rent for the Option Period, Tenant shall have the right to exercise its option for such Option Period by giving written notice to Landlord. Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 3.2(a) above, the one hundred eighty (180) day notice option period shall be shortened by one day for each day that the appraisers’ determination of the Closer Submitted Fair Market Rent is not completed at least two hundred ten (210) days prior to the expiration date of the then current Lease Term.

3.3 Commencement Agreement. Landlord and Tenant agree to sign, on or before the sixtieth (60^th) day following the later of the (i) Rent Commencement Date, or (ii) the date on which Landlord delivers to Tenant the architect’s certified measurement of the Floor Area of the Building, a commencement agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Commencement Agreement”) setting forth the Delivery Date, the Rent Commencement Date, the Expiration Date, the Floor Area of the Premises, the amounts of Base Rent payable by Tenant during the Term and each Option Period and the date by which Tenant must give notice to Landlord to exercise each Option Period. Such Commencement Agreement will thereafter be conclusive of such information.

ARTICLE IV

RENT

4.1 Payment of Rent. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without notice or demand, the Base Rent in monthly installments, in advance, on or before the first day of each calendar month of the Lease Term. Rent shall be payable to Landlord at Landlord’s address set forth in Section 21.1 below, or to any other address designated by Landlord in writing. If the Rent Commencement Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, the first payment of Base Rent shall be prorated according to the number of days after the Rent Commencement Date in such month and shall be due and payable on the Rent Commencement Date. If the Lease Term expires or terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the Base Rent due for such month shall be prorated according to the number of days in such month.

4.2 Tenant’s Liability for Common Area Maintenance Costs. Tenant shall bear the responsibility for all Common Area Costs incurred during each calendar year during the Term of the Lease, subject to the Initial Operating Expense Cap. Such amount shall be payable as follows:

(a) Estimated Payments of Common Area Maintenance Costs. Prior to the beginning of each calendar year during the Term of the Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant an estimate of the Common Area Maintenance Costs for such full or partial calendar year together with a breakdown of such calculation in reasonable detail and in a form consistent with prior years to allow comparison. On a monthly basis during the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount of the estimated Common Area Maintenance Costs. Such amount shall be payable in advance, at the same time and in the same place as the Base Rent.

(b) Year-End Reconciliation. Within ninety (90) days after (i) the end of each calendar year during the Term and (ii) the expiration of the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a final, annual reconciliation statement (“Year-End Statement”) for the actual amount of the actual Common Area Maintenance Costs for the calendar year (or portion thereof) just ended. If the actual Common Area Maintenance Costs with respect to such accounting period exceeds the aggregate amount(s) previously paid by Tenant based on Landlord’s estimate of the Common Area Maintenance Costs for such full or partial calendar year, then subject to the Initial Operating Expense Cap, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the deficiency within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Year-End Statement from Landlord. However, if the aggregate amount(s) previously

paid by Tenant based on Landlord’s estimate of the Common Area Maintenance Costs for such full or partial calendar year exceeds the actual Common Area Maintenance Costs for such period, then Landlord shall credit such surplus against Tenant’s next monthly estimated Common Area Maintenance Cost payment(s) or pay Tenant a refund of such net surplus within thirty (30) days following the date of the Year-End Statement. The Year-End Statement and other ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall set forth in reasonable detail the total Common Area Maintenance Costs (broken down by cost categories) during such period. Within ten (10) days after receipt of Tenant’s request therefore, Landlord shall provide to Tenant copies of receipted invoices or equivalent documentation showing the amount and purpose of each expenditure and the method of calculating the Common Area Maintenance Costs, as well as additional information or copies of such additional documents as Tenant may reasonably request in order to verify the date, amount and purpose of all Common Area Maintenance Costs reflected in Landlord’s Year-End Statement. If Landlord fails to provide such Year-End Statement, or any of the supporting invoices and documentation, when and as required herein, Tenant’s obligation to pay monthly installments of estimated Common Area Maintenance Costs, shall be suspended until Landlord fulfills such obligations, at which time Tenant shall pay, along with its next monthly installment of Base Rent, all suspended payments of estimated Common Area Maintenance Costs less any credit due to Tenant pursuant to this Section 4.2. Landlord hereby waives all right to collect or retain Common Area Maintenance Costs for which a Year End Statement complying with the requirements of this Section 4.1 has not been submitted to Tenant within one (1) year after the end of the calendar year during which such Common Area Maintenance Costs were incurred.

(c) Partial Calendar Years. If the Rent Commencement Date commences other than on January 1, or the Term ends other than on December 31, Tenant’s obligations to pay estimated and actual amounts toward the Common Area Maintenance Costs for such partial calendar years will be prorated on the basis of the portion of such calendar years included in the Term following the Rent Commencement Date. Such proration will be made by multiplying the total estimated or actual (as the case may be) Common Area Maintenance Costs for the partial calendar year in question, by a fraction having as its numerator the number of days of the Term following the Rent Commencement Date within the partial calendar year, and as its denominator “365” or “366,” as applicable.

(d) Audit Rights. Landlord shall maintain, for a period of at least two (2) years following the date Landlord provides to Tenant the Year-End Statement for the period to which they pertain, complete and accurate books and records of all Common Area Maintenance Costs paid or incurred by Landlord and all payments of Common Area Maintenance Costs as a portion of Additional Rent received from Tenant. Such books and records shall be kept at a location in the continental United States known to Tenant, and Tenant or its auditors have the right, with reasonable notice and no more than once per calendar year, to inspect, copy and audit such books and records at any time during normal business hours. Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days after completion of such audit, repay Tenant for any overpayments which Tenant or its auditors identify or if the audit reveals underpayments by Tenant, Tenant shall within thirty (30) days of completion of such audit pay Landlord for such underpayments. In the event an audit pursuant to the requirements of this Section 4.2 reveals an overcharge for the applicable year in excess of four percent (4%), Landlord shall pay for the reasonable cost of the audit within thirty (30) days following receipt of Tenant’s invoice therefor up to a maximum of $2,500.00, and Tenant shall be permitted to audit the two (2) years prior to the overcharge year.

4.3 Other Costs. All payments required to be made by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease not otherwise specifically defined as Base Rent or Additional Rent shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Landlord that sets forth the amount due and has attached a copy of the applicable invoices or statements.

4.4 Late Payment; Interest on Past Due Obligations.

(a) If Tenant shall fail to pay any Base Rent, Additional Rent or other charges under this Lease when the same becomes due and payable, including bank drafts returned unpaid, such unpaid amounts shall bear interest from the due date thereof to the date of receipt of payment at the lesser of the Prime Rate per annum, or such other rate as is the highest legal rate of interest chargeable in the State of Indiana (the “Interest Rate”); provided no interest shall be charged on the first late Rent payment during a Lease Year. For purposes of this Lease, “Prime Rate” shall mean three percent (3%) per annum above the average prime rate published by the Wall Street Journal or, if not available, the average prime rate published by the three (3) largest commercial banks in New York City.

(b) If Tenant shall fail to pay any Base Rent, Additional Rent or other charges under this Lease within five (5) days after the day when the same becomes due and payable, including bank drafts returned unpaid, then in addition to the interest required to be paid pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late fee in the amount of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) to compensate Landlord for the administrative expense of processing such late payment.

The date of completion of Landlord’s Work shall be established and evidenced by a certificate of substantial completion executed by the architect of record confirming that Landlord’s Work has been substantially completed. “Substantial Completion” shall be deemed to have occurred when all of Landlord’s Work has been completed by Landlord for Tenant to make use thereof for its intended purposes, subject only to the completion of Landlord’s punch-list items which do not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises for the Tenant’s normal business operations. Landlord shall complete all punch-list items as soon as reasonably practicable and no later than within thirty (30) days after the date of substantial completion of the applicable portion of Landlord’s Work or such longer period as may be reasonable, not to exceed sixty (60) days.

(b) Warranties.

Notwithstanding anything herein seemingly to the contrary, Landlord agrees to correct any failure in such Warranty arising within two (2) years after the Delivery Date. Landlord hereby assigns and transfers to Tenant, upon the Delivery Date (such assignment to be nonexclusive and coextensive with the rights of Landlord), the benefit of any and all warranties and guarantees received by or given to Landlord by any architect, contractor, subcontractor, material supplier, equipment supplier or any other individual or entity which provided goods or services to the Landlord in connection with Landlord’s Work to the extent relative to those elements or portions of the Premises which are Tenant’s responsibility to maintain and/or repair.

Prior to commencing its construction activities at the Leased Premises, Landlord, at its cost and expense, shall obtain or require its contractors to obtain and thereafter maintain, so long as such construction activity is occurring, Builder’s Risk—all risk or special perils insurance against direct cause of physical loss, including the cost of debris removal, in the amount of not less than the full replacement cost of the Building from an “A” rated company and in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Such policy shall contain a waiver of subrogation by the general contractor and each subcontractor. Any deductibles under such policies shall be payable by the applicable contractor. Landlord and Tenant shall each be named an additional insured on the policies of builder’s risk as their interests may appear. Landlord shall provide a certificate of insurance evidencing the coverage required by this Section 6.3 and the insurer’s obligation to notify Tenant at least thirty (30) days in advance of any cancellation or material modification of such policy.

6.4 Compliance with Laws. Landlord agrees that all construction activities performed by it on the Leased Premises shall be performed in compliance with all laws and regulations. Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall secure all necessary approvals, permits, fees, licenses and the like required for the performance of Landlord’s Work, and Landlord shall provide notice to Tenant once all of such approvals, license and permits have been obtained.

The provisions of this Section 6.5 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

6.6 Tenant Improvement Allowance. Landlord shall make available an allowance of up to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) (the “Available TIA”) to be used by Tenant in its sole discretion for improvement to the Real Estate in addition to Landlord’s Work (the “TIA Work”). Any amount of the Available TIA which is used by Tenant (the “Actual TIA”) shall result in an adjustment of Base Rent, such adjustment to be calculated based on the amortization over the remaining portion of the initial Term of the Lease of the Actual TIA with interest thereon at the rate of seven and seven tenths percent (7.7%), such interest accruing on actual days elapsed and a year of 365/366 days, as applicable. Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intent to exercise all or any portion of the Available TIA within the first six (6) months following the Rent Commencement Date and shall use such Available TIA within six (6) months of such notice; provided, that if Tenant provides notice in a timely manner and is thereafter unable to complete the TIA Work within the required six-month period, the Available TIA will remain available for Tenant’s use until the TIA Work is complete. If Tenant fails to provide such notice in a timely manner or fails to use the Available TIA within such six-month period (as such period may be extended pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), Landlord shall have no further obligation to provide the Available TIA.

6.7 Expansion Option.

(a) During the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall have the continuing option to lease an addition or multiple additions on the Real Estate of similar quality and design (the “Expansion Space”) to the Leased Premises of up to Two Hundred Thousand Seventy (200,070) square feet of Floor Area. Lease of the Expansion Space shall be on the same general terms and conditions specified in this Lease for the original Leased Premises, other than for the adjustment of Base Rent and the Term as set forth in this Section 6.7. To exercise this expansion option, Tenant shall give Landlord at least Three Hundred Sixty-Five/Sixty-Six (365/366) days, as applicable, written notice of the intended date of possession of the Expansion Space (the “Expansion Space Option Notice”). This option shall be available to Tenant so long as no uncured Event of Default is in existence at the time of the delivery of the Expansion Space Option Notice or the delivery date of the Expansion Space to Tenant.

(b) At the time the Expansion Space is delivered to Tenant (the “Expansion Space Delivery Date”), the Expansion Space shall be deemed part of the Leased Premises and, if the then current Term is less than seven (7) years, the current Term will be extended

from the remaining term thereof (the “Remaining Term”) for a period (the “Extended Period”) sufficient to create a seven (7) year then current Term. Each remaining Option Term, if any, will be adjusted to commence based on the Extended Period or the applicable anniversary thereof. Such adjustments will be reflected in an Expansion Space Notice to be executed by Landlord and Tenant within thirty (30) days following the Expansion Space Delivery Date.

(c) Base Rent for the original Leased Premises shall remain as specified in Section 1.7 above for the balance of the Remaining Term and shall be increased for the Extended Period by an amount equal to the product of the annual Base Rent during the Remaining Term and the percentage increase, if any, of the Consumer Price Index (the “CPI”) since the commencement of the then current Lease Period; provided, however, that the CPI increase shall not exceed two percent (2%) per year. Base Rent for the Expansion Space shall be computed on the basis of an eight (8%) return to Landlord on the actual costs payable by Landlord for construction supplies and labor, architectural and engineering fees for the balance of the then current Term. Base Rent for the Leased Premises on any succeeding Option Period shall be determined as set forth in Section 3.2, taking into account the full Leased Premises including the Expansion Space.

Real Estate Taxes will not include any of the following: (i) any assessments for highway, street or traffic control improvements,

sanitary or storm sewers, utilities, or for other on-site or off-site improvements or infrastructure of any nature whatsoever made in connection with the development or improvement of the Industrial Park: provided, however, that Real Estate Taxes may include those assessments for highway, street or traffic control improvements, sanitary or storm sewers, utilities, or other on-site or off-site improvements or infrastructure made after the Rent Commencement Date of this Lease as long as such assessments do not relate to the initial development of the Real Estate or the Industrial Park; (ii) any franchise, gift, estate, inheritance, conveyance, transfer, capital investment or other tax assessed against Landlord or Landlord’s heirs, successors or assigns; (iii) any income, excess profits or other tax, assessment, charge or levy on the Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease; (iv) any property tax applicable to any land or improvements not within the boundaries of the Tax Parcel; (v) any interest, fine or penalty for late payment or nonpayment by Landlord of any Real Estate Taxes; (vi) any increased assessments which result from a transfer in ownership of the Real Estate, the Industrial Park or any portion thereof between affiliated entities (but increased assessments which result from a transfer in ownership between unrelated parties are not excluded hereby); (vii) real estate taxes or assessments for any property not located within the Real Estate or real estate taxes and assessments that may be payable under the CCR (as defined in Section 27.13) ; (viii) any current or future tax, levy, assessments or charges under local improvement, community, business or facilities districts or other special taxing districts, subdivisions or not-for-profit corporations with the power and authority to tax, levy, assessment or charge and which were undertaken by or with the consent of any real property owners within the Real Estate or the Industrial Park; (ix) any correction of or supplement to any tax or assessment for any period prior to the Rent Commencement Date; or (x) impact, utility, connection, inspection, permit or capacity fees or assessments.

13.2 Tenant’s Liability for Real Estate Taxes. Tenant’s responsibility for Real Estate Taxes shall be determined as follows:

(a) Computation and Payment. During each tax fiscal year of the Term of the Lease, Tenant will reimburse to Landlord the amount of such Real Estate Taxes, subject to the Initial Operating Expense Cap.

(b) Proration at Beginning and End of Term. All Real Estate Taxes for any tax fiscal year a portion of which falls within the Term and a portion of which falls either before the Rent Commencement Date or after the end of the Term will be prorated by multiplying the amount of Real Estate Taxes for such tax fiscal year by a fraction having as its numerator the number of days in such tax fiscal year that fall within the Term following the Rent Commencement Date and having as its denominator the total number of days in such tax fiscal year.

(c) Payable by Tenant. Prior to the beginning of each calendar year during the Term of the Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant an estimate of the Real Estate Taxes for such full or partial calendar year together with a breakdown of such calculation in reasonable detail and in a form consistent with prior years to allow comparison. On a monthly basis during the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated Real Estate Taxes, in advance, at the same time and in the same place as the Base Rent. Tenant shall have the same rights of reconciliation and remedies as are provided in Article IV with respect to Common Area Maintenance.

13.3 Right to Contest. Landlord will, within twenty (20) days of receiving notification thereof, send to Tenant notice of any increases in assessments for Real Estate Taxes. If Landlord does not give written notice to Tenant, as of 15 days prior to the applicable reassessment contest deadline, of its intention to contest such reassessment, then Tenant will have the right, at Tenant’s expense, to contest the amount or validity of Real Estate Taxes for such tax fiscal year by appropriate administrative and legal proceedings brought either in Tenant’s name, or, if legally necessary to prosecute such contest, jointly with Landlord, by counsel selected and engaged by Tenant (and, if Landlord is a joint contestant, reasonably approved by Landlord). Landlord will execute and deliver to Tenant, at no cost to Landlord, such documents as may be reasonably necessary or proper to permit Tenant to contest Real Estate Taxes or which may be necessary to secure payment of any refund which may result from any such proceedings. Any refund resulting from a proceeding brought either by Tenant or Landlord or by them jointly will be applied first to reimburse the party or parties who brought the proceeding for the costs incurred with the proceeding, and then to reimburse Tenant for the difference between the amount Tenant paid for the Real Estate Taxes for each fiscal tax year involved in the proceeding and the amount Tenant would have been required to pay if the Real Estate Taxes had been assessed in accordance with the decision rendered in the proceeding. Any remaining balance will be paid to Landlord. Tenant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from all liability incurred by Landlord solely as a result of any contest by Tenant of Real Estate Taxes, together with any interest, penalties or other charges thereby imposed by applicable governmental authorities solely as a result of such contest by Tenant (excluding increases, if any, in Real Estate Taxes caused by such contest by Tenant), and Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from all liability incurred by Landlord solely as a result of any contest by Tenant of Real Estate Taxes that results in any sale or other proceeding to enforce payment thereof. Tenant shall pay any Real Estate Taxes before same become a lien on the Premises. If Landlord contests the Real Estate Taxes, Landlord shall cooperate and regularly communicate with Tenant in the institution of and prosecution of any such proceedings by the Landlord, and Tenant, at its expense, may participate with Landlord.

13.4 Payment by Landlord. Landlord will pay or cause to be paid to the appropriate governmental authorities, prior to delinquency, all Real Estate Taxes due and payable to such authorities with respect to all portions of the Real Estate owned by Landlord, provided Landlord shall have no right to pay the same during the pendency of any Tenant contest proceedings, except to the extent necessary to avoid forfeiture.

13.5 Audit. Landlord shall maintain records of such Real Estate Taxes, and Tenant shall have the same rights of audit and remedies as are provided in Article IV with respect to Common Area Maintenance Costs.

13.6 Notice of Increased Assessments. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to timely deliver to Tenant a copy of any such reassessment notice.

In the alternative, with the prior written consent of Landlord’s lender, Tenant may elect at any time in its sole discretion to provide special form property insurance satisfying the requirements hereof with respect to the Building, in which event the cost of such insurance shall be paid by Tenant, and the cost of any comparable insurance maintained by Landlord with respect to the Building and any other improvements in the Real Estate shall be excluded from the Insurance Costs for which Tenant is responsible hereunder as a portion of Additional Rent The proceeds of said property policy, whether maintained by Landlord or Tenant, shall be used, to the extent necessary, for repair or reconstruction of the Building pursuant to Article XVI. Landlord will be responsible for determining the amount of property insurance to be maintained, but such coverage will be on an agreed value basis to eliminate the effects of co-insurance. Landlord may also maintain from time to time additional insurance against such additional casualty risks and in such amounts as are then reasonable, prudent and customary among owners and operators of similar industrial parks in the metropolitan area where the Premises are located and may include the costs for such additional insurance in the Insurance Costs for which Tenant is responsible hereunder as a portion of Additional Rent.

14.4 Property Insurance. Tenant agrees at its sole cost to carry insurance against fire, vandalism and malicious mischief, and such other risks as are, from time to time, included in standard extended coverage endorsements, insuring Tenant’s stock-in-trade, trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings, special equipment, floor and wall coverings and all other items of personal property of Tenant located on or within the Leased Premises, including full improvements endorsements (including Landlord’s interests), such coverage to be in an amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of replacement cost thereof.

Prior to the beginning of each calendar year during the Term of the Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant an estimate of the Insurance Costs for such full or partial calendar year together with a breakdown of such calculation in reasonable detail and in a form consistent with prior years to allow comparison. On a monthly basis during the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord one-twelfth (1/12) of that portion of the estimated Insurance Costs in advance, at the same time and in the same place as the Base Rent. Insurance Costs shall be subject to the Initial Operating Expense Cap and Tenant shall have the same rights of reconciliation and remedies as are provided in Article IV with respect to Common Area Maintenance and the same obligations for partial calendar years as set forth in Article IV with respect to Common Area Maintenance; provided, however, Tenant shall be obligated to make such payments only to the extent such premiums are consistent and competitive with premium rates of such insurance coverage available in the marketplace to owners of comparable properties in the local vicinity of the Industrial Park. Landlord covenants throughout the Term to engage contractors and insurance carriers with commercially competitive rates for Insurance Costs and Common Area Maintenance Costs.

14.6 Mutual Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord hereby releases Tenant from any liability for damage or destruction to the Premises, whether or not caused by acts or omissions of Tenant, its employees, agents or contractors, and Landlord hereby waives any and all claims and right of recovery against Tenant, its employees, agents and/or contractors, for damage, loss or injury caused by or resulting from fire and/or other perils, to the extent that any such claims for damages, losses or injuries are or would be covered by any property insurance policies which Landlord does or is required to maintain hereunder. Tenant hereby releases Landlord from any liability for damage or destruction to Tenant’s property, whether or not caused by acts or omissions of Landlord, its employees, agents or contractors, and Tenant hereby waives any and all claims and right of recovery against Landlord, its employees, agents and/or contractors, for damage, loss or injury caused by or resulting from fire and/or other perils, to the extent that any such claim for damages, losses or injuries are or would be covered by any property insurance policies which Tenant does or is required to maintain hereunder. Landlord and Tenant shall each look to their respective insurance coverage for

recovery of any insured property damage. Each of Landlord and Tenant shall cause any property insurance policies which it maintains to contain a provision whereby the insurer waives any (i) rights of subrogation and (ii) rights of recovery against the other party. Both Landlord and Tenant agree to immediately give each insurance company which has issued to it policies of property insurance written notice of the terms of said mutual waivers and to cause said insurance policies to be properly endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation thereof by reason of said waivers and shall furnish to the other party a certificate of insurance or other written evidence of such endorsement or that such endorsement is not required.

14.7 General. Prior to the Delivery Date, Tenant and Landlord shall furnish each other with certificates evidencing the coverages required by this Article XIV. Each of Tenant and Landlord shall have the right to provide any insurance required to be carried by it hereunder under blanket policies, so long as the minimum amounts of coverage required herein are expressly reserved for the Leased Premises. In the event any of Landlord’s property policies insures risks other than the Leased Premises, Landlord shall obtain a certified statement of the insurer as of the policy effective date, and each renewal date, of the premium allocation attributable to the Leased Premises, and other properties included in blanket policy and shall furnish the same to Tenant upon demand from time to time.

ARTICLE XV

EMINENT DOMAIN

15.1 Total Taking. In the event all or substantially all of the Leased Premises shall be taken pursuant to any condemnation proceeding, or exercise of the right of eminent domain, or is transferred in lieu or in threat thereof (a “Taking”), this Lease shall terminate effective as of the date of such Taking.

15.2 Partial Taking. If so much of the Leased Premises or Common Area is subject to a Taking that, in Tenant’s reasonable judgment, the portion of the Leased Premises and Common Area remaining after the Taking will be insufficient to continue Tenant’s business at substantially the same scope as existed prior to the Taking, then Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease as of the date Tenant or Landlord shall be dispossessed from the part so Taken, by giving notice to Landlord of such election so to terminate within ninety (90) days from the date of such dispossession.

15.3 Rights/Obligations when Lease is not Terminated. In the event of a Taking of any portion of the Leased Premises not resulting in a termination of this Lease, Landlord shall at its sole cost and expense, promptly and with all due diligence restore the Leased Premises as nearly as practicable to a complete architectural unit of like quality and character as existed just prior to such Taking. In such event, this Lease will continue in full force and effect, except that from and after the Taking, the Rent and other charges shall be reduced based on an equitable adjustment due to the nature and degree of the interference with Tenant’s business operations. Further, if as a result of such Taking or of Landlord’s restoration efforts Tenant ceases the operation of its business at the Leased Premises, the Rent shall ▇▇▇▇▇ completely until the earlier of thirty (30) days following the completion of Landlord’s restoration work, or the date when Tenant recommences substantially all of the storage and distribution services at the Leased Premises.

15.4 Rights/Obligations when Lease is Terminated. Upon the termination of this Lease under this Article XV, all obligations hereunder, including any obligation to pay Rent, shall terminate as of the date of such Taking. In the event this Lease shall be terminated pursuant to this Article XV, any Rent and other charges paid in advance shall be refunded to Tenant and Tenant shall have an additional thirty (30) days, rent free, within which to remove its property from the Leased Premises.

15.5 Compensation from Public Entity. In the event the Leased Premises or any part thereof shall be subject to a Taking or condemned either permanently or temporarily for any public or quasi-public use or purpose by any authority in appropriation proceedings or by any right of eminent domain, the entire compensation award therefor, including, but not limited to, all damages as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold, reversion and fee, shall belong to Landlord without any deduction therefrom for any present or future estate of Tenant, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all its right, title and interest to any such award. However, Tenant’s right to receive compensation for damages, or to share in any single award, shall not be affected in any manner hereby to the extent relating to the Taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest hereunder or buildings or improvements constructed or made by Tenant, interruption of Tenant’s business, or for Tenant’s moving, relocation or other similar expenses, and Tenant shall have the right to make a separate claim for such damages.

ARTICLE XVI

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION TO LEASED PREMISES

16.1 Repair and Restoration. In the event the Leased Premises (or any portion thereof) is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty (“Casualty”), Landlord will, within thirty (30) days after the date of Casualty, notify Tenant (“Casualty Notice”) of (a) the percentage of the total square footage of the Leased Premises and of the Common Area that was damaged or destroyed by the Casualty, and (b) the number of days, from the date of the Casualty, that an architect, engineer or contractor selected by Landlord estimates will be required to complete the repair and restoration. Unless either Landlord or Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as provided in this Article XVI, Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall repair and restore all portions of the Leased Premises and the Common Area affected by the Casualty (exclusive of Tenant’s fixture, furniture and equipment) to their condition just prior to the Casualty (“Restoration” or “Restore”). All proceeds from Landlord’s insurance carried in accordance with this Lease shall be applied by Landlord for said Restoration of the Leased Premises. Landlord’s obligation to Restore shall be limited to the amount of insurance proceeds available under such insurance (unless Landlord failed to maintain the insurance required by this Lease, in which case there will be no limit on Landlord’s Restoration obligation), plus any applicable deductible.

16.2 Landlord’s Termination Right. Landlord, by written notice to Tenant within forty-five (45) days from the date of the Casualty, may terminate this Lease if a Casualty (i) damaged or destroyed more than fifty percent (50%) of the square footage of the Leased Premises, or (ii) caused damage or destruction of the Leased Premises which is not covered by insurance maintained or required hereby to be maintained by Landlord, provided that, if only the Leased Premises is damaged, Tenant may elect (by providing notice within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s termination notice) to contribute an amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the difference (“Restoration Shortfall”) between all available

insurance proceeds (plus the amount of any deductible) and the actual cost for Restoration, in which event Landlord’s termination election shall be void and of no effect. If Tenant elects to pay the Restoration Shortfall, Tenant will, within thirty (30) days after written request therefor (together with reasonable backup documentation) and completion of such Restoration, pay Landlord the Restoration Shortfall.

16.3 Tenant’s Rights. In the event that (i) a Casualty damages or destroys (a) more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the square footage of the Leased Premises, and Landlord’s Casualty Notice estimates that it will take longer than two hundred ten (210) days from the date of the Casualty to complete the Restoration, or (ii) the Casualty Notice is not delivered to Tenant within three (3) business days after Landlord’s receipt of a written notice from Tenant that Landlord failed to timely deliver the Casualty Notice to Tenant, then Tenant may terminate this Lease, effective as of the date of Casualty, by written notice to Landlord, which must be provided prior to the date which is forty-five (45) days following the receipt of Landlord’s Casualty Notice.

16.4 Time Period for Restoration. If Landlord for any reason whatsoever fails (a) to commence the Restoration work within 120 days from the date of the Casualty, (b) to proceed diligently to complete such Restoration work, or (c) to complete same within the estimated time set forth in Landlord’s Casualty Notice, then in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Tenant, Tenant will have the option to complete the Restoration work itself with respect to the Leased Premises, in which case Landlord will reimburse Tenant for all reasonable costs incurred in the completion of such work and if Landlord fails to make reimbursement to Tenant, Tenant may offset such costs, with interest at the Interest Rate from the date of incurrence of such costs, from Rent coming due under this Lease.

16.5 Termination of Lease. In the event of termination of this Lease pursuant to this Article XVI, Tenant shall surrender possession of the Premises within sixty (60) days after notice of termination is duly given, all Rent shall be apportioned on a per diem basis and paid to the date of Casualty; all obligations of Landlord and Tenant incurred prior to such termination shall survive such termination; all prepaid rents, unearned rents and deposits shall be returned to Tenant by Landlord; and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any future obligations or responsibilities under this Lease.

16.6 Abatement of Rent. From the date of a Casualty until thirty (30) days after the later of (a) the date on which the Restoration required hereby is substantially complete and (b) possession of the Leased Premises is delivered to Tenant, Rent will equitably ▇▇▇▇▇ in proportion to the nature and extent of the interference with Tenant’s normal operation of its business from the Leased Premises. If Tenant has paid any Rent in advance, Landlord will immediately repay to Tenant an amount equal to that portion of any Rent paid in advance for which payment is abated.

16.7 Damage During Last Years of Lease Term. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, in the event more than thirty percent (30%) of the square footage of the Leased Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by Casualty within two (2) years of the Expiration Date, either party shall have the option to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other party within forty-five (45) days following the date of the Casualty. In the event that Landlord provides notice of termination hereunder, Tenant shall be able to exercise its next available option rights under this Lease, if any, and Landlord’s notice of termination shall not be effective; provided Tenant exercises said option within fifteen (15) days of receipt of Landlord’s notice of termination.

ARTICLE XVII

TITLE

17.1 Landlord’s Title Warranty. Landlord represents and warrants that (i) it is, or by March 1, 2013 will be, the owner of fee simple title to the Leased Premises free and clear of all tenancies, occupancies, restrictions, covenants, easements, liens, encumbrances and any other exceptions, other than such encumbrances which are not inconsistent with and do not adversely affect any rights of Tenant under this Lease, and (ii) it has, or by March 1, 2013 will have, the full right, power and authority, corporate and otherwise, to execute this Lease and to perform the obligations of Landlord under this Lease.

Landlord represents and warrants that Tenant will not be prevented or restricted in any material way from conducting any part of the Primary Use in or from the Premises or in exercising any of the rights herein granted with respect to the Common Area because of any restriction, covenant, lease, encumbrance or agreement entered into by any person having or having had an interest in the Leased Premises or any portion of the Industrial Park. If Tenant is so prevented or restricted because of any court order or other judicial determination arising out of any such restriction, covenant, lease, encumbrance or agreement, the Base Rent and other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder shall be equitably abated during the period of such prevention or restriction according to the nature and degree thereof; and, if said period shall continue for ninety (90) days or more after notice from Tenant to Landlord, Tenant may terminate this Lease by further notice in writing to Landlord at any time thereafter, and in the event of such termination Tenant shall have no further obligation or liability hereunder. From and after the execution and delivery hereof, Landlord shall defend, indemnify and save harmless Tenant against all actions, claims, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and losses arising out of the existence of any such lease, encumbrance, restriction, covenant or agreement or allegation of the existence thereof.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

20.1 Tenant’s Default. Tenant shall be in default of this Lease if (a) Tenant fails to make any payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease, except as otherwise allowed herein, when due under this Lease and such failure continues uncured for a period of ten (10) days after written notice of such default has been given by Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be required to give such notice of a failure to pay more than two times during any twelve month period, or (b) if Tenant shall violate or fail in the performance of any covenants, agreements, stipulations or other conditions contained herein (other than the payment of Base Rent, Additional Rent or other amounts due) and such violation or failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such violation or default has been given by Landlord to Tenant or, in the case of a default not curable within thirty (30) days, if Tenant shall fail to commence to cure the same within thirty (30) days and thereafter proceed diligently to complete the cure thereof, not to exceed sixty (60) days.

Whether or not Landlord terminates this Lease pursuant to this Section 20.2, Landlord may at its option, but subject to applicable state law, enter into and repossess the Leased Premises or any part thereof, remove Tenant’s signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof. If Landlord does not terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 20.2, entry and repossession by Landlord shall not terminate this Lease or release Tenant, in whole or in part, from any obligations under this Lease.

If Landlord does not terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section, reletting of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall not terminate this Lease or release Tenant, in whole or in part, from any obligations under this Lease.

(d) Damages Absent Termination. If Landlord maintains the Lease in effect without termination, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the total of: (i) the Base Rent, Additional Rent, and other costs that would be payable under this Lease by Tenant until the end of the Lease Term; plus (ii) all reasonable costs directly or indirectly incurred by Landlord relating to Tenant’s default and Landlord’s repossession and reletting of the Leased Premises, including brokerage commissions, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, collection costs, interest at the Interest Rate, and alteration, repair and remodeling costs and expenses to prepare the Leased Premises for reletting (but excluding any lease inducement or tenant allowance amounts), less (iii) the rent received by Landlord, if any, from any reletting, pursuant to Landlord’s duty to mitigate damages. Tenant will pay damages monthly on the day Base Rent is payable under this Lease, and Landlord shall be entitled to recover the same from Tenant on each such day.

given by Tenant or, in the case of a default not curable within thirty (30) days, if Landlord shall fail to commence to cure the same within thirty (30) days and thereafter proceed diligently to complete the cure within sixty (60) days after receipt by Landlord of written notice thereof given by Tenant, then Tenant, at its option, may pursue its remedies which shall include, without limitation, the rights to: (1) incur any reasonable expense necessary to perform the obligation of Landlord specified in such notice; and/or (2) ▇▇▇ for injunctive relief; and/or (3) ▇▇▇ for specific performance; and/or (4) ▇▇▇ for damages; and/or (5) if such remedy is expressly provided for elsewhere in this Lease, set off any amount expended or damages incurred by Tenant as a result of such default against any sums coming due to Landlord hereunder; and/or (6) avail itself of any other remedy provided herein or available at law or in equity.

27.20 Purchase Option; Right of First Refusal.

(a) Landlord will provide written notice to Tenant of the date Landlord intends to close on the acquisition of the Leased Premises (the “Scheduled Closing Date”) at least five (5) business days prior thereto. Landlord has provided Tenant with a current title commitment, survey and Phase I environmental report for the Real Estate (the “Diligence Reports”) and agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to work with Tenant to resolve any deficiencies or concerns identified by Tenant in the Diligence Reports and noted by Tenant in a notice of deficiencies (the “Deficiency Notice”) delivered to Landlord on or before January 16, 2013. If the deficiencies identified by Tenant in the Deficiency Notice are not resolved to Tenant’s reasonable satisfaction, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord on or before the date which is three (3) business days prior to the Scheduled Closing Date. If Tenant fails to timely provide such notice of termination, Tenant’s right to terminate shall be waived (and Tenant, either directly or through its counsel, shall provide Landlord written confirmation of such waiver) and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that Landlord determines that it desires to sell the Premises, Landlord shall notify Tenant at or before the time Landlord offers the Premise for sale. Prior to entering into a written agreement to sell the Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of any bona fide offer from a third party acceptable to Landlord which is received by Landlord on or before the date which is forty-five (45) days prior to the Rent Commencement Date. Such notice shall be in the form of a letter of intent signed by Landlord and the potential purchaser (the “Third Party Offer”) setting forth the purchase price and other terms of such sale. Tenant shall have the option to purchase the Premises at the price and on the payment and other terms set forth in the Third Party Offer (the “First Refusal Option”) by giving written notice to Landlord exercising such First Refusal Option; such notice shall be given not later than five (5) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Third Party Offer. Tenant and Landlord shall then enter into a purchase contract for the sale of the Premises to Tenant at the price and upon the payment and other terms set forth in the Third Party Offer. The purchase price shall be paid on the closing date together with all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums then due and payable hereunder to and including such date of purchase, such amount to be payable in cash or by bank wire transfer in immediately available funds. The First Refusal Option shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the failure of Tenant to timely elect to purchase the Premises after it has received the Third Party Offer, and (ii) unless Tenant is in the process of purchasing the Premises pursuant to a Third Party Offer in accordance with the process described above or the five (5) day period for Tenant to elect to purchase the Premises as set forth above has not yet expired, 11:59 pm Central Time on the day which is forty-five (45) days prior to the Rent Commencement Date. Upon such termination, Landlord shall be permitted to sell the Premises to the party submitting the Third Party Offer on the terms set forth therein.

(c) If Tenant has not terminated this Lease in accordance with subsection (a) above, Tenant may elect, at its sole discretion, to purchase the Premises in accordance with the terms and conditions of this subsection (c). So long as Tenant has not received a Third Party Offer from Landlord in accordance with subsection (b) above, Tenant shall have the right to exercise the purchase option by giving written notice to Landlord (the “Purchase Option Notice”) on or before the forty-fifth (45^th) day preceding the Rent Commencement Date. The Purchase Option Notice shall evidence Tenant’s desire to purchase the Premises and shall specify the closing date for such purchase, which shall occur not later than the business day prior to the Rent Commencement Date, subject to the parties’ determination of the purchase price for such purchase, which shall be the “Fair Market Value” of the Premises, as defined below. Landlord shall convey or cause to be conveyed title thereto by special warranty deed, and subject only to this Lease, the lien of any taxes, exceptions to title subject to which the Premises were conveyed to Landlord (excluding any exceptions noted in the Deficiency Notice), and exceptions created or consented to by Tenant. The term “Fair Market Value” as used in this Section 27.20 shall mean an amount equivalent to the then current fair market value of property in the general market area in which the Premises are located for similar buildings of comparable characteristics, including, but not limited to, location, age and condition of

such buildings. Within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Purchase Option Notice, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant Landlord’s good faith determination of the Fair Market Value of the Premises and an explanation of the basis for Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Value of the Premises (the “Initial Sale Offer”). Tenant shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord’s Initial Sale Offer to notify Landlord whether Tenant accepts or rejects Landlord’s Initial Sale Offer. If Tenant rejects Landlord’s Initial Sale Offer, then Landlord and Tenant shall use their good faith efforts to agree on the Fair Market Value of the Premises. If Landlord and Tenant are not able to agree on the Fair Market Value of the Premises within fifteen (15) days after Tenant’s rejection of Landlord’s Initial Sale Offer, then the Fair Market Value of the Premises shall be determined by “Baseball Arbitration” as follows:

(i) No more than 30 days after Tenant’s rejection of the Initial Sale Offer, Landlord and Tenant shall simultaneously present to each other their final determinations of the Fair Market Value of the Premises (the “Final Sale Offers”).

(ii) If Landlord and Tenant do not reach agreement on the Fair Market Value of the Premises within fifteen (15) days after exchanging the Final Sale Offers, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select one (1) arbitrator to determine the Fair Market Value of the Premises. Such arbitrator shall be a licensed real estate broker or appraiser with at least ten (10) years active experience in Indianapolis, Indiana with warehouse and distribution properties. If Landlord and Tenant cannot mutually agree on the choice of arbitrator, each party shall select its own arbitrator, and the two arbitrators shall jointly select a third arbitrator, who shall make the sole determination.

(iii) The arbitrator so selected under subsection (ii) shall make the final determination of the Fair Market Value of the Premises, taking into account the criteria, and following the procedures, set forth in this Section 27.20(c). The arbitrator shall be required to select either the Final Sale Offer proposed by Landlord or the Final Sale Offer proposed by Tenant, without compromise, as the Fair Market Value of the Premises.

(iv) The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant as to the Fair Market Value of the Premises.

(v) Landlord and Tenant shall each pay one-half (1/2) the cost of the arbitrator(s) pursuant to this Section.

Tenant’s purchase option under this subsection (c) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) Tenant’s receipt of a Third Party Offer from Landlord at any time prior to Tenant’s delivery of a Purchase Option Notice (in which case, subsection (b) above shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to such Third Party Offer), and (ii) unless Tenant is in the process of purchasing the Premises pursuant to a Purchase Option Notice in accordance with the process described above, 11:59 pm Central Time on the date which is forty-five (45) days prior to the Rent Commencement Date.

27.21 Guaranty. As a condition precedent to the execution of this Lease, the obligations of Tenant hereunder are being guaranteed by Gordmans, Inc., such guaranty to be substantially in the form attached to this Lease as Exhibit J.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have signed and sealed this Lease as of the day and year first above written.

Provide minimal MH exterior building perimeter illumination (where not already illuminated by the parking lot, site roadway or trailer parking lighting) for security purposes. Such lighting should be of the wall-mounted type and is especially needed over dock doors, drive-thru overhead doors and pedestrian doors.

C-37

Provide minimal façade lighting to high-lite the exterior architectural features of the main office frontage. Also, provide ground mounted “flood” lighting to emphasize the flags on the flag poles and the Gordmans sign located at the main vehicle entrance to the facility.

Exterior lighting shall be automatically controlled photo electrically in combination with pre-programmed time clock control (time of day/week/etc.) and with the capacity for manual override.

Light poles will have a 110 power hook-up and spare conduit for security camera installation.

Fire/Emergency Evacuation Systems

Developer/Contractor will furnish and install the following:

Fire protection sprinkler system riser water flow sensors.

Exterior post indicator valve (PIV) tamper switches (including underground wiring and conduit).

OS&Y valve tamper switches.

Fire booster pump “running” and “trouble” contacts (if fire booster pump installation is required).

Fire booster pump room “low temperature” contacts (if fire booster pump installation is required).

Fire protection water storage tank “low level” contacts (if fire protection water storage tank is constructed).

Security System:

Gordmans will reserve the right to receive bids for security system and assign contract to Developer/Contractor for execution of work.

Miscellaneous Systems

Coordinate with Gordmans Telecommunications personnel and local telephone utility regarding the installation of telephone utility service (voice and data) to the site/building. Minimum number of external utility telephone lines run to the sit shall be 100 pair.

Design, furnish and install at least three (3) 4” underground conduits located to contain the off-site telephone utility cabling into the facility “demark” point (usually the telecommunications room – opposite end of room from main entrance door). Such conduits shall be extended from the telephone “demark” location to the site property line, or otherwise as dictated by Gordmans and/or the local telephone utility.

Design, furnish and install necessary empty conduits (minimum 1” in size for each tel/data outlet) and empty flush mounted wall tel/data outlet boxes for at least 25 tel/data outlets within the main office area. Exact locations shall be coordinated with the latest office planning furniture layouts and with Gordmans.

▇-▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ employs furniture equipped with wireway channels for tele-data; therefore, electrical design/installation should provide for this type of interface – again each tele-data outlet will require equivalent of 1” conduit for tele-data cabling (4 x 4 pair UTP at each outlet). Tel/data service to those workstations located in the center of the open office area may require the design/installation of appropriately sized under floor duct and/or underground conduits. Such raceways shall be included in the design/build construction, as the installation dictates and coordinated with the 120V receptacle outlet design/construction. Included in Allowance

Design, furnish and install at least (40) empty 1” conduit drops (from building truss level) equipped at bottom termination with empty tele-data outlet boxes (about 4’ AFF) in the warehouse area. Gordmans will advise regarding the exact locations of these tele-data conduit drops. We have included an allowance of $150 for each run.

Section 1. Default Under the Lease. Landlord agrees to provide Lender with written notice of any default by Tenant under the Lease at the same time as it sends such notice to Tenant.

Section 3. Right of Access. Prior to the beginning of the Disposition Period (hereinafter defined), Landlord will permit Lender reasonable access to the Premises, from time to time, in order to exercise Lender’s rights with respect to the Collateral and to permit Lender to remove the Collateral from the Premises. If Landlord takes possession of the Premises for any reason, including because of termination of the Lease, Landlord will give Lender notice of same and will permit the Collateral to remain on the Premises for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days (the “Disposition Period”) after the date that Lender receives written notice from Landlord that Landlord has taken possession of the Premises, provided Lender pays Rent (as defined in the Lease) expenses set forth in the Lease on a per diem basis for the period of time the Collateral remains on the Premises.

Lender shall not be liable for any diminution in value of the Premises caused by the absence of Collateral actually removed or by any necessity of replacing the Collateral or the occupancy of such Premises by Lender or its agents or designees. Under no circumstances shall Lender be liable for any past-due Rent owing by Tenant to Landlord.

SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

THIS SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of by and among , its successors and/or assigns, (“Lender”), GORDMANS DISTRIBUTION COMPANY, INC. a Kansas corporation, (“Tenant”) and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Monrovia, LLC, an Indiana limited liability company (“Landlord”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Landlord is or is about to become the owner of the property legally described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Property”);

WHEREAS, Landlord has leased a portion of the Property to Tenant (the “Premises”) pursuant to a lease dated , and all amendments, supplements and additions thereto (the “Lease”);

WHEREAS, Lender has agreed to make a loan (the “Loan”) to Landlord, evidenced or to be evidenced by a promissory note (the “Note”) made by Landlord to the order of Lender, repayment of which is to be secured by a Mortgage (or Deed of Trust, as applicable) and/or Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Fixture Financing (the “Mortgage”) on the Property;

WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to Lender’s disbursement of the Loan proceeds, Lender has required that Tenant subordinate the Lease and Tenant’s interest in the Premises in all respects to the lien of the Mortgage; and

WHEREAS, in return, Lender is agreeable to not disturbing the Tenant’s possession of the Property.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual agreements which follow, Lender, Tenant and Landlord agree as follows:

1. Subordination. Tenant agrees that the Lease, terms, covenants and provisions thereof including all of the rights of Tenant in, to or under the Lease, are, and shall at all times continue to be, subject to and subordinate in all respects to the lien of the Mortgage and to all renewals, modifications, supplements, replacements and extensions thereof, and to the rights and interests of the holder of the Mortgage, as fully and with the same force and effect as if the Mortgage had been executed, delivered and recorded, and the indebtedness secured thereby had been fully disbursed prior to the execution and delivery of the Lease or possession of the Property by Tenant, or its predecessors in interest.

2. Nondisturbance. So long as Tenant is not in default under the Lease after notice and beyond any period given Tenant to cure such default, Lender agrees that Tenant’s possession of the Property and its other rights and privileges under the Lease or any extensions or renewals thereof, shall not be diminished, disturbed or interfered with by Lender, and if any action or proceeding is commenced by Lender for the foreclosure of the Mortgage and/or the sale of the Property, Tenant shall not be named as a party defendant therein unless required by law or if the

F-2

Tenant fails to comply with the terms of this Section. Should Lender become the owner of the Property, or should the Property be sold by reason of foreclosure, or other proceedings brought to enforce the Mortgage, or should the Property be transferred by deed in lieu of foreclosure, or should any portion of the Property be sold under a trustee’s sale, the Lease will continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Lender and/or the succeeding owner of the Premises, as the case may be (Lender and each such succeeding owner being hereinafter referred to as “Purchaser”), and Tenant, upon and subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of its term as it may be extended, and Lender, or any successor owner of the Premises, will be bound by all of the terms of the Lease. Lender agrees that so long as the Lease is in full force and effect, no proper exercise by Tenant of its rights under the Lease shall constitute a default under the Mortgage.

3. Attornment. Tenant agrees that the institution of any action or other proceedings by Lender under the Mortgage in order to realize upon Landlord’s interest in the Property shall not result in the cancellation or termination of the Lease or Tenant’s obligations thereunder. If Lender or any subsequent purchaser of the Property shall become the owner of the Property by reason of the foreclosure of the Mortgage or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or by reason of any other enforcement of the Mortgage shall become the owner of the Property by reason of the foreclosure of the Mortgage or the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise: (a) the Lease shall not be terminated, or otherwise affected thereby except as specified herein; (b) Tenant shall attorn to Purchaser and recognize Purchaser as its landlord under the Lease for the unexpired term of the Lease, subject to Tenant’s right of quiet enjoyment under the Lease and all other terms and conditions thereof, said attornment to be effective and self-operative immediately upon Lender succeeding to the interest of the Landlord under the Lease without the execution of any further instruments on the part of any of the parties hereto; and (c) Tenant shall be bound to Purchaser under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof which may be effected in accordance with any option therefore in the Lease, with the same force and effect as if Purchaser were the landlord under the Lease; provided, however, that Tenant shall be under no obligation to pay rent to Purchaser until Tenant receives written notice from Purchaser that it has succeeded to the interest of Landlord under the Lease. Tenant shall have the right to rely upon the notice from Lender or any Purchaser and shall pay such rents and other amounts to Lender or any Purchaser without any obligation to determine the actual existence of the right of Lender or any Purchaser to receive such rents and other amounts. Landlord shall have no right or claim against Tenant for any such rents and other amounts so paid by Tenant to Lender or any Purchaser and Landlord waives and releases Tenant from any such claims. Landlord and Lender agree that Tenant shall be credited under the Lease for any payments sent to Lender pursuant to such written notice. In the event that Tenant makes such payment(s) to Lender as provided for in this Section, Landlord agrees not to commence any action at law or in equity against Tenant to recover: (x) the proceeds of said payment(s); or (y) possession of the Premises except pursuant to the exercise of any rights under the Lease. The respective rights and obligations of Tenant and Lender upon such attornment, to the extent of the then remaining balance of the term of the Lease and any such extensions and renewals, shall be and are the same as now set forth therein.

4. Purchaser Not Bound By Certain Acts of Landlord. If Purchaser shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under the Lease, Purchaser shall have the same rights and obligation under the Lease as Landlord, and Tenant shall have the same rights and remedies under the

F-3

Lease against Purchaser as existed against Landlord, provided, however Purchaser shall not be: (a) subject to any credits, claims or offsets under the Lease or against any prior landlord (including Landlord) which arose or existed prior to the time Purchaser obtains possession of the Property, except for credits, claims and offsets arising under the Lease with respect to costs and expenses incurred by Tenant after Tenant has notified Lender and given Lender an opportunity to cure as provided in this Agreement, and/or offsets arising from (i) a reconciliation or year-end adjustment of an estimated rental or other charge under the Lease or (ii) an audit of Landlord’s business records as provided in the Lease; (b) bound by any Base Rent paid more than thirty (30) days in advance; (c) liable for the return of any security deposit paid to any prior landlord, including Landlord, unless Purchaser has actually received the same; or (d) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease that reduces Base Rent or Additional Rent or shortens the term of the Lease (other than as expressly contemplated by the Lease, such as, for example, a rent reduction upon partial condemnation of the Premises) made without Lender’s prior written consent; provided, however, that Lender agrees not to unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed amendment or modification which does not materially and adversely affect Lender’s security. Provided, however, that nothing herein shall excuse Lender or Purchaser from liability or responsibility for, or limit any right or remedy of Tenant with respect to, any breach or default which continues from and after the date when Lender or such Purchaser obtains title to or takes possession or control of the Premise, nor shall anything herein contained limit Tenant’s claims against Landlord personally.

5. Right To Cure Landlord’s Default. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Lease to the contrary, no right to terminate the Lease may be exercised by Tenant unless Lender shall have first received notice of the default giving rise to such termination and shall have failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof or if such default is of a nature that it cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) days, then Lender shall have such additional time to cure such default, not to exceed ninety (90) days, so long as Lender commences such cure within such thirty (30) days and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Lender to perform any covenant made by Borrower as Landlord in the Lease unless and until Lender obtains title to the Premises as Purchaser or takes possession of the Premises in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage. In addition to Lender’s cure rights above, Lender shall have the right (but not the obligation) to cure any other default by Landlord under the Lease within the applicable cure period available to Landlord as currently set forth in the Lease and Tenant shall not exercise any remedies with respect to any such default until expiration of such cure period unless waived by Landlord and Lender.

6. Notice of Landlord Default. Each of Lender and Tenant shall give to the other, in same method given to Landlord, a copy of any notice of default served upon the Landlord under the Mortgage or the Lease, respectively, at the address set forth herein.

7. Assignment of Lease. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is assigning the Lease and rents thereunder to Lender as security for the Note given by Landlord to Lender. Tenant agrees that upon receipt of a written notice from Lender, it will thereafter pay to Lender directly all rent and other amounts due or to become due from time to time under the Lease. Tenant shall have the right to rely upon the notice from Lender and shall pay such rents and other amounts to Lender without any obligation to determine the actual existence of the right of Lender to receive such rents and other amounts. Landlord shall have no right or claim against Tenant for any such

F-4

rents and other amounts so paid by Tenant to Lender and Landlord waives and releases Tenant from any such claims. Landlord and Lender agree that Tenant shall be credited under the Lease for any payments sent to Lender pursuant to such written notice. In the event that Tenant makes such payment(s) to Lender as provided for in this Section, Landlord agrees not to commence any action at law or in equity against Tenant to recover: (a) the proceeds of said payment(s); or (b) possession of the Premises.

8. Casualty and Condemnation. Lender agrees that so long as the Lease is in full force and effect, if the Premises shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, or taken by condemnation, and such event does not result in the termination of the Lease by Landlord or Tenant pursuant to any right reserved therein by either such party, then notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in the Mortgage, the proceeds of insurance, or condemnation award, will be made available for the purpose of repairing and restoring the Premises, as the case may be, in accordance with the Lease. Lender may, however, impose reasonable conditions on the time and manner of the disbursement of the insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, so long as such conditions do not result in any unreasonable delays in the timing of the commencement or completion of any repairs or restoration as required under the Lease.

9. Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, sent registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or sent by a nationally recognized courier service that issues a receipt, to the other party at the address in this Section or to such other address as may be designated by notice to the other party and shall be deemed given upon the earlier of personal delivery, the date postmarked, delivery to such courier or the refusal to accept such service:

Lender agrees to execute such confirmation certificates and other documents as Tenant’s lenders may reasonably request in connection with any such financing provided the same are in a form acceptable to Lender.

Assessments

Section 7.01. Covenant for Assessments. Each Owner (including the Declarant) covenants and agrees, by the execution of this Declaration in the case of the Declarant and by acceptance of a deed for the Owner’s Parcel in the case of each subsequent Owner (regardless of whether expressly stated in such deed), to timely pay the Association each payment of the Owner’s Proportionate Share of Annual Assessment Costs which becomes due and payable during the period in which such Owner owns its Parcel.

Section 7.02. Establishing Annual Assessments; Payment. Prior to November 30 of each calendar year, the Board shall adopt an estimated budget of Annual Assessment Costs for the calendar year (the “Annual Budget”) and provide a copy of the Annual Budget to each Owner on or before December 15 for the following calendar year. Each Owner shall then pay its Proportionate Share of the estimated Annual Assessment Costs set forth in the Annual Budget in equal quarterly payments due on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each calendar year, or an Owner may elect to pay its Proportionate Share annually, within forty-five (45) days after being invoiced by the Association. In the event of any extraordinary item of Annual Assessment Costs incurred by the Association during a calendar year but not included in the Annual Budget for such year, each Owner shall pay to the Association in Proportionate Share of each such item within thirty (30) days after receiving a statement therefor from the Association. On or before March 15 of each calendar year, the Association shall furnish to each Owner a statement (the “Annual Statement”) setting forth the total amount of Annual Assessment Costs incurred by the Association for the preceding calendar year, the Owner’s Proportionate Share thereof and the amount thereof previously paid by the Owner or a predecessor Owner. The Association shall refund any overpayment to the then Owner at the time the Annual Statement is furnished, and in the case of an underpayment, the then Owner shall pay the amount thereof to the Association within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Annual Statement. In the event the Association fails to provide any Owner with an Annual Budget or Annual Statement on or before the applicable date specified above, the Owner shall not be relieved from its obligation to pay its Proportionate Share of Annual Assessment Costs, but in such event, the Owner’s payment shall not be due and payable until thirty (30) days after receipt from the Association of an appropriate statement of the amount due from the Owner.

Section 7.03. Personal Obligation. The amount of each payment of Annual Assessment Costs for each calendar year attributable to ownership of a given Parcel shall constitute the personal obligation of the person or entity which is the record Owner of the Parcel on the date the payment of Annual Assessment Costs becomes due and payable, and no Owner shall be personally obligated to pay any payment of Annual Assessment Costs which becomes due and payable either before or after the period during which the Owner is the record Owner of its Parcel.

Section 7.04. Assessment Liens. In the event of an Owner’s failure to timely pay its Proportionate Share of any payment of Annual Assessment Costs, the delinquent amount owed by such Owner shall constitute a lien upon the Owner’s Parcel as of the date the Association records an affidavit with the Office of the Recorder of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ County in which such Owner’s Parcel is located containing the legal description of the Owner’s Parcel and stating the name of the Owner, the delinquent amount owed by the Owner and the date on which such amount was due and payable. Such lien shall encumber the defaulting Owner’s entire interest in its Parcel, run in favor of the Association, and the enforceable in the same manner as a mortgage, provided that any such lien shall be subordinate to the lien of any bona fide first mortgage to an unrelated third party then existing on the Parcel. The sale, conveyance or other transfer of any Parcel or interest therein shall not in any manner alter or impair any assessment lien on the Parcel or the right hereunder of the Association to enforce or impose an assessment lien upon the Parcel. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event a delinquency arises with respect to which the Association is entitled hereunder to impose and enforce a lien upon a Parcel, such right shall continue notwithstanding that the Parcel or any interest therein is sold, conveyed or otherwise transferred after such delinquency arises but before the assessment lien therefor is imposed as provided herein.

Section 7.05. Additional Costs. Each sum owed hereunder by an Owner shall be due and payable by such Owner without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and together with costs of collection, reasonable attorney fees and, if delinquent for more than thirty (30) days, with interest at the lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the highest rate of interest permitted under applicable law from the date due until paid.

Design Guidelines and Development Standards

PART ONE — ADMINISTRATION

INTRODUCTION

The Association, or Declarant, has developed the following Design Guidelines and Development Standards as a means to establish a recorded document to govern the overall development of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ (▇▇▇▇). These guidelines are intended to serve as the minimum standards that each development shall meet as well as the process for review of each proposed development. In addition, based on the multi-jurisdictional nature of the park, these guidelines shall serve as the underlying zoning text for several governmental jurisdictions as further described below.

The Association has established a Design Review Board (DRB), to review all proposed development submittals and to administer any and all revisions to these guidelines.

Master Land Plan

The development team has established a master land plan for the Park that sets forth proposed infrastructure and land use guidelines. Detailed parcelization has not been established so that individual needs may be accommodated. The Property covered by these Development Guidelines is described in the attached Master Land Use Plan, Exhibit “MP-1”. Any additional property that becomes subject to the Declaration as provided therein shall comply with these requirements.

Binding Effect

These Development Guidelines shall be binding on all Owners (as defined by the Declaration) and all persons proposing to construct improvements on a site during the term of the Declaration.

Amendment

These Development Guidelines may be amended at any time by the Board. (but such amendments shall not apply to then existing construction or plans previously approved by the DRS or to expansions of or additions to then existing improvements). Improvements are to be constructed in accordance with the Development Guidelines in existence as of the date construction plans are approved by the DRB. Subsequent changes to the Development Guidelines shall not require changes in existing construction or plans previously approved by the DRB.

Enforcement

Declarant, the Association, and the DRB shall have the right, but not the duty, to enforce the Development Guidelines. Enforcement shall be by any proceeding at law or in equity against any Person or Persons violating or attempting to violate these Development Guidelines or any supplementary guidelines either to restrain violation or to recover damages; and failure by Declarant, the Association or the DRB to enforce any such provisions shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter. With respect to any litigation hereunder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs from the non-prevailing party.

Liens/Severability

Violation of or failure to comply with these Development Guidelines shall not affect the validity of any mortgage, lien or other similar security instruments which may then be existing as an encumbrance on any part of the Property. Invalidation of any one or more of these Development Guidelines, or any portions thereof, by a judgment or court order shall not affect any of the other provisions or guidelines herein contained, which shall remain in full force and effect.

Approvals

No approval by the DRB, pursuant to the provisions of these Development Guidelines, shall be effective unless in writing, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Development Guidelines.

DESIGN REVIEW BOARD (DRB)

General

The Design Review Board or DRB has been established to promote quality development of the Property in accordance with the Declaration and these Development Guidelines. The DRB has the authority specified in the Declaration to perform the functions which consist primarily of the review and approval or disapproval of plans and specifications for all proposed improvements and the monitoring of construction for compliance with approved plans and specifications. No Improvements shall be erected, constructed, placed, altered, remodeled, demolished, or permitted to remain on any portion of the Property until plans and specifications, in such form and detail as the DRB may deem necessary, have been submitted and approved by the DRB. The DRB shall have the sole right to interpret and to make all subjective decisions regarding these Development Guidelines.

Costs

Each Owner submitting plans to the DRB for review shall pay a basic review fee established from time to time by the DRB.

The Design Review Board

The Development Review Board shall consist of the following members:

▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

The DRB may, however, hire professional consultants on a case-by-case basis. The Owner whose plans are being reviewed will reimburse the DRB for costs associated with the review including the costs of any such consultants. The Owner will be informed as to the amount of any such costs and Owner’s approval obtained before any consultants are hired.

Responsibility

The DRB has the following responsibilities:

•

Require the submission of plans, specifications, and other appropriate documents or information for all proposed Improvements;

•

Review and approve or disapprove such documents and information for compliance with the Declaration and these Development Guidelines;

•

Authorize variance to these Development Guidelines;

•

From time to time observe ongoing construction for compliance with DRB-approved documents; provided, however, failure of the DRB to identify noncompliance in plans, specifications, shop drawings or construction does not relieve the Owner of its responsibility to comply;

•

Assist Owners in resolving technical issues such as access to utility connections;

•

Provide advice and assistance to Owners regarding submissions or planned submissions; and

•

Recommend to the Board changes to these Development Guidelines as may be deemed appropriate by the DRB from time to time (as required by advances in technology or variation in all building topology).

APPROVAL OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS BY THE DRB DOES NOT CONSTITUTE ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION THAT SUCH PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS COMPLY WITH GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS AND/OR GOOD AND PRUDENT DESIGN, ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES, IT IS THE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER TO DETERMINE AND SEE THAT ITS PLAN AND SPECIFICATIONS COMPLY WITH SUCH REQUIREMENTS AND PRACTICES.

Procedures

Consistent with the following general procedures, the DRB shall determine specific procedures for the review and approval process.

•

Plans and specifications for all proposed improvements shall be submitted to the DRB for approval before work is started on such Improvements. Ordinary maintenance, replacements in kind, or interior modifications which do not modify the exterior appearance, or color, or jeopardize or impair the safety, soundness, or structural integrity of any improvements do not require DRB approval.

•

During the design process, members of the DRB shall be reasonably available on a reasonable basis to answer questions regarding the intent of the Declaration and these Development Guidelines.

Approval, Timing and Submittal Procedures

The DRB will in a timely manner review each complete submittal. All DRB review comments and approvals must be in writing. The DRB shall act on all applications within ten (10) business days from which it is formally submitted. All submittals must be approved by a majority consensus of the DRB.

At the applicant’s option, the applicant may submit a Preliminary Plan Approval Package to the DRB for preliminary review comments regarding site layout, building design and landscaping prior to submitting a Final Approval Package. The DRB will review the Preliminary Approval Package and return to the applicant with comments within 10 business days.

It is emphasized that it is the Owner’s responsibility to notify the DRB of any variances between the Owner’s design and the Declaration or these Development Guidelines, and to request approval of all variances.

APPROVAL OF AN OWNER’S CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE APPROVAL OF ANY VARIANCE UNLESS THAT VARIANCE HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY REQUESTED IN WRITING BY THE OWNER AND SPECIFICALLY APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE DRB.

Approval of plans and specifications shall be based upon a determination by the DRB, by a majority vote, as to whether or not such plans and specifications adequately meet objectives established for the Property with regard to aesthetic quality and consistency and requirements of the Declaration and these Development Guidelines.

Should the DRB fail to approve or take action on a submittal in complete form as required by these Development Guidelines within the allotted time frame, it shall be concluded that the DRB has disapproved such plans and specifications. Delays caused by the need for additional information, modification to the submitted documents, and approvals to variances shall extend the review period, as stated in the applicable provisions of the Declaration.

No construction may begin until authorized in writing by the DRB. The DRB; at the request of an Owner, may approve portions of a plan so that some construction may be started while reviewing resubmitted documents or applying to obtain a variance. In such event, the Owner proceeds with construction at its own risk and shall be solely responsible for its plans submitted for later review result in the DRB requiring changes to such partially approved plans and any construction thereunder.

Preliminary Plan Approval (Optional)

In such format as may be required by the DRB, the submission shall show the site planning, including but not limited to a parcel plan showing location and size of any and all buildings, parking, access, set backs and open space.
