7. Common Area and R&D Building Expenses. Section 4 of the Lease (as amended by the Third Amendment) is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in lieu thereof:

“4.Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses

4.1.Payment of Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses. Tenant will pay, as Additional Rent and in the manner this Section 4 describes, (i) Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses, and (ii) Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses, in each case, for each calendar year of the Term. Landlord will prorate Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses for the calendar year in which this Lease terminates as of the termination date, as applicable, on a per diem basis based on the number of days of the Term within such calendar year.

4.2.Estimation of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses. Landlord will deliver to Tenant a written estimate of the following for each calendar year of the Term: (a) Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses, (b) Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses and (c) the annual and monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses. Landlord may re-estimate Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses from time to time during the Term. In such event, Landlord will re-estimate the monthly Additional Rent attributable to Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses to an amount sufficient for Tenant to pay the re-estimated monthly amount over the balance of the calendar year. Landlord will notify Tenant of the re-estimate and Tenant will pay the re-estimated amount in the manner provided in the last sentence of Section 4.3.

4.3.Payment of Estimated Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses. Tenant will pay the amount Landlord estimates as Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses under Section 4.2 in equal monthly installments, in advance, on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term. If Landlord has not delivered the estimates to Tenant by the first day of January of the applicable calendar year, Tenant will continue paying Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses based on Landlord’s estimates for the previous calendar year. When Tenant receives Landlord’s estimates for the current calendar year, Tenant will pay the estimated amount for such calendar year (less amounts Tenant paid to Landlord in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence) in equal monthly installments over the balance of such calendar year, with the number of installments being equal to the number of full calendar months remaining in such calendar year.

4.4.Confirmation of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses. After the end of each calendar year within the Term, Landlord will determine the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses for the expired calendar year and deliver to Tenant a written statement of such amount. If Tenant paid less than the amount of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building

Expenses specified in the statement, Tenant will pay the difference to Landlord as Additional Rent in the manner described in Section 3.2. If Tenant paid more than the amount of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses specified in the statement, Landlord will, at Landlord’s option, either (a) refund the excess amount to Tenant, or (b) credit the excess amount against Tenant’s next due monthly installment or installments of estimated Additional Rent. If Landlord is delayed in delivering such statement to Tenant, such delay does not constitute Landlord’s waiver of Landlord’s rights under this section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant paid more than the amount of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses specified in the statement and the Term has expired, Landlord shall refund such excess amount to Tenant within forty five (45) days of the end of the Term.

4.5.Tenant’s Inspection and Audit Rights. If Tenant desires to audit Landlord’s determination of the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses for any calendar year, Tenant must deliver to Landlord written notice of Tenant’s election to audit within 30 days after Landlord’s delivery of the statement of such amount under Section 4.4. If such notice is timely delivered, and provided that no default then exists under this Lease, then Tenant (but not any subtenant or assignee) may, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, cause a certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Landlord to audit Landlord’s records relating to such amounts on a non-contingent basis. Such audit will take place during regular business hours at a time and place reasonably acceptable to Landlord (which may be the location where Landlord maintains the applicable records). Landlord shall deliver copies of such records to Tenant, to the extent reasonably practicable, in the event traveling to the location of the records is cost-prohibitive. Tenant’s election to audit Landlord’s determination of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses is deemed withdrawn unless Tenant completes and delivers the audit report to Landlord within 60 days after the date Tenant delivers its notice of election to audit to Landlord under this section. If the audit report shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses was greater than the amount this Section 4 obligates Tenant to pay, unless Landlord reasonably contests the audit, Landlord will refund the excess amount to Tenant, together with interest on the excess amount (computed at 10% per annum from the date Tenant delivers its dispute notice to Landlord) within 30 days after Landlord receives a copy of the audit report. If the audit report shows that the amount Landlord charged Tenant for Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses was less than the amount this Section 4 obligates Tenant to pay, Tenant will pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, the difference between the amount Tenant paid and the amount determined in the audit. Pending resolution of any audit under this section, Tenant will continue to pay to Landlord all estimated amounts of Tenant’s Share of Common Area Expenses and/or Tenant’s Share of R&D Building Expenses in accordance with Section 4.3. Tenant must keep all information it obtains in any audit strictly confidential and may only use such information for the limited purpose this section describes and for Tenant’s own account.

4.6.Adjustment for Variable Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses. If all of the rentable area of the R&D Building is not occupied at all times during any calendar year pursuant to

leases under which the terms and rents have commenced for such calendar year, Landlord will reasonably and equitably adjust its computation of Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses for that calendar year to include all components of Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses that vary based on occupancy in an amount equal to Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the amount Tenant would have paid for such components of Common Area Expenses and R&D Building Expenses had all of the rentable area of the R&D Building been so occupied at all times during such calendar year.

4.7.Personal Property Taxes. Tenant will pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes charged against Tenant’s Personal Property. Tenant will use all reasonable efforts to have Tenant’s Personal Property taxed separately from the Property. If any of Tenant’s Personal Property is taxed with the Property, Tenant will pay the taxes attributable to Tenant’s Personal Property to Landlord as Additional Rent.

4.8.Rent Tax. Tenant will pay to Landlord all Rent Tax due in connection with this Lease or the payment of Rent hereunder, which Rent Tax will be paid by Tenant to Landlord concurrently with each payment of Rent made by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease.

Neither Monthly Rent nor Additional Rent will be reduced, nor will Landlord be liable, for loss or injury to or interference with Tenant’s property, profits or business arising from or in connection with Landlord’s performance of its obligations under this Section 11.2. If any governmental authority requires any alterations, additions, improvements, or decorations (collectively “Alterations”) to the Property or the Premises as a result of Tenant’s particular use of the Premises (whether or not it is a Permitted Use) or as a result of any Alteration to the Premises made by or on behalf of Tenant or if Tenant’s particular use of the Premises subjects Landlord or the Property to any obligation under any applicable laws or regulations, Tenant will pay the cost of all such Alterations or the cost of compliance, as the

case may be. If any such Alterations involve either (a) the structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire/life safety or heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems of the Building, or (b) any portion of the Property outside of the interior of the Premises (collectively “Structural Alterations”), Landlord will make such Structural Alterations, provided that Landlord may first require Tenant to deposit with Landlord an amount sufficient to pay the cost of such Structural Alterations (including, without limitation, reasonable overhead and administrative costs).

12. Alterations. The following shall be added at the end of Section 12.1(a) of the Lease:

“Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.1(a) of the Lease, a Pre-Approved Change shall not include any Tenant Changes that consist of Structural Alterations.”

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, bill Tenant for such charges directly or require Tenant to pay charges directly (in which event such charges shall be deemed Additional Rent under the Lease) or to the applicable utility companies. Furthermore, until the date Landlord procures a third party tenant for any portion of the Surrendered Premises and the term of the lease with such third-party tenant commences (the “Demising Effective Date”), Tenant shall be responsible for direct payment to the applicable utility companies of all charges related to steam, electricity, water, sewer, gas and other utility charges for the entire R&D Building (and not solely limited to the Overland Premises).”

14. Damage or Destruction.

(a)Section 18.1 of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following shall be inserted in lieu thereof:

16. Termination as to Surrendered Premises. Landlord agrees that as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, Landlord and Tenant agree that the Lease shall terminate as to the Surrendered Premises and Landlord and Tenant shall have no further obligation to each other with respect thereto except as expressly set forth in Section 13 above or in any other provision of this Amendment or the Lease; provided however, Tenant shall have until November 30, 2013 to vacate the Surrendered Premises and deliver the Surrendered Premises to Landlord pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Lease, free and clear of any subtenants or other occupants. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that there shall be no prorations or refunds of Rent paid as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date.

Provided that Tenant (i) is not then in default under the terms of the Lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, (ii) is not then the subject of any bankruptcy or state insolvency proceeding, and (iii) has not assigned this Lease to an unrelated third party, then Tenant shall have the one-time right to terminate this Lease with respect to the first (1^st) floor of the Overland Premises as cross-hatched on Exhibit “C” attached hereto (the “First Floor Space”), such termination to be effective as of October 31, 2015 (the “First Floor Surrender Date”), provided and conditioned upon Tenant giving Landlord prior written notice of its election to exercise this termination option under this Section 17 not later than April 30, 2015, time being of the essence with respect to such notice.

20. Recitals. Landlord and Tenant agree that the recitals to this Amendment are a part of this Amendment and Landlord and Tenant expressly agree to the provisions thereof.

Landlord agrees to pay any commission due to Tenant’s Broker and Landlord’s Broker pursuant to a separate agreement

26. Enforceability. If any provision of this Amendment or its application to any person or circumstances is invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Amendment, or the applicability of such provision to other persons or circumstances, shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law and shall be deemed to be separate from such invalid or unenforceable provisions and shall continue in full force and effect.
