SUBLEASE PROVISIONS
1.RENT; LETTER OF CREDIT.
(a)Commencing on the Commencement Date, all Base Rent payments and any other payments or charges that may be due or payable under this Sublease, including, but not limited to Operating Expenses and Taxes solely related to the Subleased Premises, and sums payable on account of an Event of Default (defined below) by Subtenant (collectively, “Additional Rent”), shall become due and payable, without notice and without offset, abatement or deduction (except as otherwise provided in this Sublease), at the address listed for Rent payments in the Sublease Summary or at such other place or account located in the continental United States as may
be designated in writing by Sublandlord, in advance without demand, at least thirty (30) days prior to the first (1st) day of each calendar month during the term of this Sublease (the term “Rent” as used in this Sublease shall include both Base Rent and Additional Rent). Notwithstanding anything in the above Section 1(a) to the contrary, provided there is no existing Event of Default by Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease beyond any applicable notice and cure periods, monthly Base Rent only in the amount of $118,384.38 shall be abated from the Commencement Date until fully credited to Subtenant. All other Rent payments due hereunder during such abatement shall continue to be payable as provided herein. Subtenant shall have the right to request that Sublandlord audit Operating Expenses and Taxes in accordance with the Prime
Lease, and Sublandlord shall work with Subtenant in good faith to conduct such an audit if reasonable under the circumstances, but such audit shall be conducted at Subtenant’s expense (unless Prime Landlord is required to pay for such audit under the Prime Lease).
(b)All taxes, charges, costs, assessments and expenses that are due and payable by Subtenant hereunder, together with all interest and late charges that may accrue thereon in the event of the failure of Subtenant to pay those items in accordance with this Sublease, and all other damages, costs, expenses and sums that Sublandlord may suffer or incur, or that may become due by reason of any Event of Default or failure by Subtenant to comply with the terms and conditions of this Sublease, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent, and in the event of non-payment Sublandlord shall have all the rights and remedies as herein provided for failure to pay
Rent after applicable notice and cure periods.
(c)Subtenant shall pay before delinquency all personal taxes and assessments on the furniture, fixtures, equipment, and other property of Subtenant located in the Subleased Premises and on additions and improvements in the Subleased Premises belonging to Subtenant.
(d) Letter of Credit.
(1) Within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”) in the amount of One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) in form and issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to Sublandlord, such letter of credit to be held for the performance by Subtenant of Subtenant's covenants
and obligations under the Sublease, it being
3
expressly understood that the Letter of Credit shall not be considered an advance payment of Rent or a measure of Sublandlord's damages in case of an Event of Default by Subtenant. Sublandlord hereby approves Silicon Valley Bank as reasonably satisfactory to issue the Letter of Credit and approves the form of Letter of Credit attached hereto as Exhibit D. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default then exists, the amount of the Letter of Credit required to be maintained by Tenant shall be reduced to $500,000.00 on the first day of the 73rd month after the Commencement Date. Subtenant
acknowledges that the Letter of Credit shall be held by Sublandlord. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default by Subtenant under this Sublease which shall remain uncured beyond the applicable cure period, Sublandlord may from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy draw on the Letter of Credit, in whole or in part to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Rent or other payments hereunder and/or any damage, injury, expense or liability caused to Sublandlord by such Event of Default (provided that Sublandlord may draw upon the Letter of Credit in whole in the event Subtenant defaults in its obligation to timely deliver a replacement letter of credit as required hereunder). If any portion of the proceeds from a draw on any Letter of Credit is so used or applied, Subtenant shall within thirty (30) days cause the issuing bank to restore any Letter of Credit to the amount existing prior to such application. Any remaining
balance of Letter of Credit shall be returned by Sublandlord to Subtenant within thirty (30) days after the termination of this Sublease; provided, however, Sublandlord shall have the right to retain and expend such remaining balance (i) to reimburse Sublandlord for any and all Rent or other sums due hereunder that have not been paid in full by Subtenant and/or (ii) for cleaning and repairing the Subleased Premises if Subtenant shall fail to deliver same at the termination of this Sublease in the condition required by this Sublease, ordinary wear and tear, and damage due to casualty and condemnation only excepted. Sublandlord shall not be required to keep the proceeds from any Letter of Credit separate from its general funds and Subtenant shall not be entitled to any interest on same.
(2) Any letter of credit delivered by Subtenant hereunder as the Letter of Credit shall expire no earlier than twelve (12) months after
issuance and shall provide for automatic renewals of one-year periods unless the issuer has provided Sublandlord written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the then expiration date (whereupon Subtenant shall be obligated to provide a replacement letter of credit or a "Letter of Credit Extension", as described below, meeting the requirements of this Section 1(d) no later than prior to the expiration of the then outstanding and expiring letter of credit, as provided below). Any subsequent replacement letter of credit shall expire no earlier than twelve (12) months from the expiration date of the then outstanding and expiring letter of credit and shall provide for automatic 1-year renewals as described above, it being understood that in lieu of replacing any letter of credit, Subtenant may procure an amendment extending its expiration date and so providing for automatic 1-year renewals (each a "Letter of Credit Extension").
Subtenant shall ensure that at all times during the Sublease Term and for fifteen (15) business days after expiration of the Sublease Term, one or more unexpired letters of credit in the aggregate amount of the amount required hereunder shall have been delivered to Sublandlord in accordance with this Section 1(d). To the extent that Subtenant is obligated to furnish a replacement Letter of Credit hereunder, Subtenant shall deliver a Letter of Credit Extension or a replacement letter of credit to Sublandlord no later than the expiration date of the then outstanding and expiring letter of credit; provided, however, that a replacement letter of credit shall not be required to have an effective date earlier than the expiration date of the then existing letter of credit being so replaced (it being the intent that Subtenant not be required to have two outstanding letters of credit covering the same required amount at any one time). Failure by Subtenant to deliver any Letter
of Credit Extension or any replacement letter of credit as required above shall entitle Sublandlord to draw under the outstanding letter(s) of credit and to retain the entire proceeds thereof as security for Subtenant’s obligations hereunder. Each letter of credit shall be for the benefit of Sublandlord and its successors and assigns, and shall entitle Sublandlord or its successors or assigns to draw from time to time under the letter of credit in accordance with this Section 1(d)
4
in portions or in whole upon presentation of a sight draft. Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that the Letter of Credit is a separate and independent obligation of the issuing bank to Sublandlord and that Subtenant is not a third party beneficiary of such obligation, and that
Sublandlord’s right to draw upon the Letter of Credit for the full amount due and owing thereunder in accordance with this Section 1(d) shall not be, in any way, restricted, impaired, altered or limited by virtue of any provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, including without limitation, Section 502(b)(6) thereof.
2.TERM. The Sublease Term shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall expire on the Termination Date, unless sooner terminated as provided herein. Prior to the Commencement Date, Sublandlord shall deliver to Subtenant possession of the Subleased Premises free and clear of occupants, tenants or other third party claims, in good, operating and broom clean condition and with all furniture, fixtures and equipment located in the Subleased Premises as agreed upon Sublandlord and Subtenant as of the Effective Date (such date, the “Delivery
Date”). Sublandlord and Subtenant presently anticipate that the Delivery Date will occur not later than December 1, 2021 (the “Estimated Delivery Date”). If the Delivery Date does not occur by February 1, 2022 (the “Delivery Termination Date”), then Subtenant may terminate this Sublease by delivering to Landlord written notice thereof at any time before the Delivery Date. If Subtenant terminates this Sublease pursuant to the preceding sentence, then (i) Sublandlord shall return to Tenant all sums previously paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord, and (ii) the parties shall have no further obligations to one another except to the extent the same expressly survive such termination. During the period between the Delivery Date and the Commencement Date (the “Early
Access Period”), Subtenant shall have the right to construct the Subtenant Improvements (as defined below), coordinate installation of Subtenant’s furniture, trade fixtures and telecommunications and otherwise use and occupy the Subleased Premises. All insurance, waiver and indemnity provisions of the Sublease shall be in full force and effect during Early Access Period, but Subtenant shall not be obligated to pay Rent during the Early Access Period.
3.SUBLEASED PREMISES; COMMON AREAS; PARKING.
(a) In addition to the Subleased Premises described in this Sublease, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Sublease, Subtenant is given the right (for the Sublease Term) to the nonexclusive use, in common with other occupants of the Building, of all common areas of the Building to the same extent granted to
Sublandlord in the Prime Lease, subject to the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease. All such common areas, as constituted from time to time, which Subtenant may be permitted to use and occupy, are to be used and occupied under the license granted under the Prime Lease, and if all or any portion of such areas be temporarily closed or permanently diminished in accordance with the Prime Lease, Subtenant shall not be entitled to any compensation, damages, or diminution or abatement of rent, nor shall such revocation or diminution of such area be deemed constructive or actual eviction unless such revocation or diminution denies Subtenant access to or use of the Subleased Premises (except in the case of an enforcement of Sublandlord's rights after an Event of Default by Subtenant under this Sublease). Sublandlord shall, at its cost or expense, deliver to Subtenant 200 access cards for the Subleased Premises and main exterior
doors of the Building.
(b) Throughout the Sublease Term, Sublandlord will make available to Subtenant, permits to park automobiles on an unreserved basis at a ratio of 4.0 permits per 1,000 rentable square feet of the Subleased Premises in the areas(s) designated for parking by Prime Landlord available to Subtenant, which shall include eight (8) reserved parking spaces in the parking area beneath the Building (as depicted on the attached Exhibit C), all at no additional cost. Subtenant’s use of the parking space must in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease and Subtenant acknowledges that Prime Landlord has the right to alter, restrict, reduce or relocate parking privileges, the methods used to control parking, and the rules and
5

If Subtenant shall fail to discharge the lien within said period, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Sublandlord

(a)At all reasonable times
after at least two (2) business days’ prior written notice, provided that no written notice shall be required during the continuance of an Event of Default or in connection with an emergency, Sublandlord and/or its duly authorized agents, may go upon and inspect the Subleased Premises, and at its option make repairs thereto. If Subtenant shall not be personally present to open and permit an entry by Sublandlord into the Subleased Premises, and if an entry therein shall be necessary in the case of an emergency, Sublandlord or its agents may make forcible entry without rendering Sublandlord or its agents liable therefor (except to the extent arising out of the negligence of willful misconduct of Sublandlord or its agents) and without in any manner affecting the obligations and covenants of this Sublease. Subtenant hereby irrevocably grants Sublandlord the necessary licenses to carry out the terms of this subsection, provided that Prime Landlord and Sublandlord shall
not unreasonably interfere with the operation of Subtenant’s business at the Subleased Premises.
(b)The exercise of any right reserved to Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease or to Sublandlord in this Sublease shall not be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Subtenant’s use and possession of the Subleased Premises, nor render Prime Landlord or Sublandlord liable in any manner to Subtenant, any of Subtenant’s representatives or any other person; provided, however, that (i) to the extent Prime Landlord would have liability under the Prime Lease to Tenant, Sublandlord shall have liability under this Sublease to Subtenant, and (ii) to the extent Tenant would be entitled to an abatement of rent under the Prime Lease, Subtenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Rent under this Sublease.

In the event Sublandlord is entitled under the Prime Lease to a rent abatement as a result of fire or other casualty or as a result of a taking under the power of eminent domain, then Subtenant shall be
8
entitled
to an equitable rent abatement under this Sublease, provided that it is understood that any rent abatement under the Prime Lease that exceeds the Rent amount due by Subtenant in a given time period shall be retained and inure to the benefit of Sublandlord. If the Prime Lease imposes on Sublandlord the obligation to repair or restore leasehold improvements or alterations located in the Subleased Premises, Subtenant shall be responsible for repair or restoration of its leasehold improvements or alterations located in the Subleased Premises (and no other portion of the Premises). If Subtenant fails to make such repairs with reasonable time after Subtenant receives written notice from Sublandlord of such failure and Sublandlord decides in its sole discretion to make the same, Subtenant shall make any insurance proceeds under insurance required to be maintained by Subtenant pursuant to this Sublease resulting from the loss which Sublandlord is obligated to repair or restore
available to Sublandlord and shall permit Sublandlord to enter the Subleased Premises to perform the same, subject to such conditions as Subtenant may reasonably impose.

Subtenant acknowledges that any utility service may be suspended by reason of accident or repairs, alterations or improvements necessary to be made, or by strikes
or lockouts, or by reason of operation of law, or other causes beyond the control of Prime Landlord and Sublandlord, including any force majeure. No such interruption or discontinuance of utility service will be deemed an eviction or a disturbance of Subtenant’s use and possession of the Subleased Premises or any part thereof, or render Prime Landlord or Sublandlord liable to Subtenant for any damages or abatement of Rent or relieve Subtenant from performing any of Subtenant’s obligations under the Prime Lease and this Sublease; provided that if the Building experiences an interruption of critical utility services for sustained time, subject to force majeure, that materially affects the use of the Subleased Premises for the purposes of Subtenant conducting its business (the “Interruption”), Subtenant may so notify Sublandlord (upon Sublandlord’s receipt of such notice, Sublandlord shall notify Prime Landlord), and Sublandlord
shall use good faith efforts to cause Prime Landlord to commence to cure the Interruption as and to the extent provided in the Prime Lease; provided, further, however, (i) to the extent Prime Landlord would have liability under the Prime Lease to Tenant, Sublandlord shall have liability under this Sublease to Subtenant, and (ii) to the extent Tenant would be entitled to an abatement of rent under the Prime Lease, Subtenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Rent under this Sublease.

(d)If Sublandlord receives an abatement of rent under the Prime Lease, Subtenant shall be entitled to a similar abatement based upon the affected area/period covered by the abatement.
21.TERMINATION
OF UNDERLYING LEASE. If for any reason the term of the Prime Lease is terminated prior to the expiration date of this Sublease, this Sublease shall thereupon be automatically terminated, and Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant by reason thereof, unless said termination was effected as a result of the breach or default of Sublandlord (not caused by the parallel default of Subtenant hereunder) under the Prime Lease.

If Subtenant fails or refuses to give a certificate hereunder within the time period herein specified and such failure continues for five (5) business days after Subtenant receives written notice of such failure from Sublandlord, then the information contained on such certificate as submitted by Sublandlord shall be deemed correct for all purposes.

OF SUBTENANT’S COVENANTS. Subtenant shall perform all of the covenants and conditions on its part to be performed under this Sublease with respect to the Subleased Premises (and no other portion of the Premises), and upon receipt of written notice from Sublandlord (where notice of non-performance is required by this Sublease) will promptly comply with the requirements of such notice. If Subtenant shall violate any covenant or condition of this Sublease and such violation continues beyond a reasonable time after Subtenant receives written notice from Sublandlord of such violation, Sublandlord may, at its option, do or cause to be done any or all of the things required by this Sublease that Subtenant did not perform. In so doing Sublandlord shall have the right to cause its agents, employees, and contractors to enter upon the Subleased Premises, and in such event shall have no liability to Subtenant, its agents and employees, for any loss or damages
resulting in any way from such action, except to the extent arising due to the negligent acts or omissions of Sublandlord or its agents, employees, and contractors. Subtenant hereby grants Sublandlord all necessary licenses required to carry out the terms of this Section. Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, within thirty (30) days of written demand (along with reasonable supporting evidence), any monies paid or expenses incurred by

to the contrary notwithstanding, Sublandlord and Subtenant shall each have the right at all times to enforce the covenants and conditions of this Sublease in strict accordance with the terms hereof, notwithstanding any conduct or custom on the part of Sublandlord or Subtenant in refraining from so doing at any time or times. The waiver by Sublandlord or Subtenant of any term, covenant or condition in this Sublease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or of any other term, covenant or condition herein. The subsequent acceptance or payment (as the case may be) of Rent or any other monetary obligation of Subtenant hereunder by Sublandlord or Subtenant (as the case may be) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach or default by Subtenant or Sublandlord (as the case maybe) of any term, covenant or condition of this Sublease, other than the failure of Subtenant to make the particular payment so accepted, regardless of Sublandlord’s
or Subtenant’s (as the case may be) knowledge of such preceding breach or default at the time of acceptance of such payment. No covenant, term or condition of this Sublease shall be deemed to have been waived by Sublandlord or Subtenant unless such waiver is in writing and executed by Sublandlord or Subtenant (as the case may be).
26.SURRENDER AND HOLDING OVER.
(a)Subtenant, upon expiration or termination of this Sublease, either by lapse of time or otherwise, shall peaceably surrender the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord in the condition required by the Prime Lease, with Subtenant also removing any improvements or fixtures installed by Subtenant in the Sublease required to be removed pursuant to the Prime Lease. In the event that Subtenant shall fail to surrender the Subleased Premises upon demand, Sublandlord,
in addition to all other remedies available to it hereunder or at law or in equity, shall have the right to receive, as liquidated damages for all the time Subtenant shall so retain possession of the Subleased Premises or any part thereof, an amount equal to the amount Sublandlord is required to pay to Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease, provided that Subtenant shall nonetheless be a Subtenant at sufferance. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, in no event shall Subtenant be required to remove any alterations, improvements, wires or other items installed in the Subleased Premises prior to the Effective Date or otherwise by or on behalf of Sublandlord or to otherwise restore the Subleased Premises; Sublandlord shall be responsible for all such removal and restoration obligations upon expiration of the Prime Lease.
(b)If Subtenant remains in possession of the Subleased Premises
with Sublandlord’s and Prime Landlord’s consent but without a new Sublease or a direct lease with Prime Landlord in writing and duly executed by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall be deemed to be occupying the Subleased Premises as a Subtenant from month to month, but otherwise subject to all the covenants and conditions of this Sublease.
27.EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default (an “Event of Default”) hereunder:
(a)Failure of Subtenant to pay any Rent or other sum required under this Sublease or before the due date, if Subtenant does not cure such failure within ten (10) business days after Subtenant receives written notice of such failure.
(b)The
filing of a petition by or against Subtenant for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) where any such petition for involuntary bankruptcy is not dismissed within sixty (60) days, reorganization, or appointment of a receiver or trustee of
15
Subtenant or Subtenant’s property; or an assignment by Subtenant for the benefit of creditors; or the taking of possession of the property of Subtenant by any governmental officer or agency pursuant to statutory authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Subtenant; or if a temporary or permanent receiver or trustee shall be appointed for Subtenant or for Subtenant’s property and such temporary or permanent receiver or trustee shall not
be discharged within twenty (20) days from the date of appointment; or any other execution, levy, attachment or other process of law upon Subtenant’s leasehold interest hereunder (or any part thereof).
(c)The transfer or attempted transfer of any legal or equitable interest, whether by operation of law or otherwise, of this Sublease or Subtenant’s interest in this Sublease, except strictly in accordance with the express terms of this Sublease, and Subtenant’s failure to cure the same within ten (10) business days after Subtenant’s written notice of such violation from Sublandlord.
(d)Subtenant’s failure to perform or observe any other provision of this Sublease, within thirty (30) days after written notice and demand, provided that, if such failure is of a character as not to permit compliance by Subtenant within such 30-day period, then
Subtenant’s failure to proceed diligently and promptly upon receipt of notice to commence the cure of such failure within such 30-day period, and thereafter to complete such cure with all reasonable diligence within a reasonable period thereafter.
The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a default by Sublandlord under this Sublease: (i) failure to pay any amount as and when due hereunder if Sublandlord does not cure such failure within ten (10) business days after Sublandlord receives notice of such failure; (ii) failure to comply with any term or provision of this Sublease or, to the extent imposed upon Sublandlord, the Prime Lease, and Sublandlord fails to cure such failure within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as reasonably required) after Sublandlord receives written notice of such failure; (iii) the filing of a petition by or against Sublessor for relief under the Bankruptcy Code where
any such petition for involuntary bankruptcy is not dismissed within sixty (60) days, reorganization, or appointment of a receiver or trustee of Sublandlord or Sublandlord’s property; or an assignment by Sublandlord for the benefit of creditors; or the taking of possession of the property of Sublandlord by any governmental officer or agency pursuant to statutory authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Sublandlord; or if a temporary or permanent receiver or trustee shall be appointed for Sublandlord or for Sublandlord’s property and such temporary or permanent receiver or trustee shall not be discharged within twenty (20) days from the date of appointment; or any other execution, levy, attachment or other process of law upon Sublandlord’s leasehold interest hereunder or under the Prime Lease (or any part thereof); and (iv) the occurrence of any other act or omission by Sublandlord that results in an event of default by Sublandlord on the Prime Lease. Upon the
occurrence of an default by Sublandlord, Subtenant shall have all the rights with respect to this Sublease that Sublandlord as “Tenant” has as against the Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease and all other rights and remedies available to Subtenant under this Sublease, at law and in equity. All rights of Subtenant shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and may be pursued independently or concurrently. No failure or delay by Subtenant in declaring an default by Prime Landlord or insisting on strict performance of this Sublease shall constitute a waiver of Subtenant’s rights hereunder. Subtenant may make payments without waiving Subtenant’s right to timely performance of Sublandlord’s obligations under this Sublease.
28.SUBLANDLORD’S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT BY SUBTENANT.
(a)Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default as set forth in this Sublease, in addition to any right or remedy provided by law or allowed in equity, Sublandlord, at its option, may at such times as it may determine, concurrently or successively,
16
without being deemed to have waived any rights or to have made an election of remedies in any circumstance, do any or all of the following:
(i)Sublandlord may serve upon Subtenant notice that this Sublease and the then unexpired Sublease Term shall terminate and become absolutely void on a date specified in such notice and this Sublease, as well as the right, title, and interest of Subtenant hereunder shall, except as to the rights and remedies of Sublandlord
upon termination as provided herein, terminate and become void in the same manner and with the same force and effect as if the date provided in such notice were the date originally specified for the expiration of the Sublease Term. Subtenant shall then immediately quit and surrender to Sublandlord the Subleased Premises and all rights of Subtenant with respect to the common areas of the Building, and Sublandlord may then or at any time thereafter enter into and repossess the Subleased Premises, opening locked doors, if necessary, to effect such entrance, and may remove all occupants and any property thereon without being liable for any action or prosecution of any kind for such entry or the manner thereof or loss of or damage to any property upon the Subleased Premises.
In the event of (i) above, Sublandlord may, but shall not be obligated to (unless required by law) obtain possession of the Subleased Premises by any judicial
proceeding, which it may, in its sole discretion, institute for such purpose.
(b)Except as specifically provided herein and the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, without limitation of or by the foregoing, Subtenant waives any and all demands and notices of any kind which may be required by law to be given prior to any entry or reentry by Sublandlord, by means of judicial proceedings for that purpose or otherwise. In the event Sublandlord shall terminate this Sublease prior to the date of expiration of the Sublease Term as set forth herein, or in the event Sublandlord shall repossess the Subleased Premises, by judicial process or otherwise, with or without termination of this Sublease, Subtenant waives all right to recover or regain possession of the Subleased Premises to save forfeiture of possession or of this Sublease, as the case may be, by payment of rent due or by other performance
of the covenants and conditions hereof, and without limitation of or by the foregoing, Subtenant waives all right to reinstate or redeem this Sublease notwithstanding any provisions of any statute, law, or decision hereafter in force and effect.
(c)Subtenant shall not interpose or assert any claim or non-compulsory counterclaim in any action or proceeding brought by Sublandlord under this Sublease for possession of the Subleased Premises. Subtenant acknowledges that any such claim or counterclaim would be inconvenient to Sublandlord and would prejudice the rights of Sublandlord under this Sublease. If Subtenant violates this subsection, Sublandlord and Subtenant stipulate that any such claim or counterclaim shall be severed and tried separately from the action or proceeding brought by Sublandlord for possession of the Subleased Premises if permitted pursuant to applicable rules of civil procedure or
other applicable law. This subsection (c) shall in no way impair the right of Subtenant to commence a separate action against Sublandlord for any violation by Sublandlord of the provisions of this Sublease or to which Subtenant has not waived any claim pursuant to the provisions of this Sublease. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, in no event shall Sublandlord or Subtenant be responsible for any consequential damages incurred by the other party, including lost profits or interruption of business, as a result of any default by Sublandlord or Subtenant (as the case may be).
(d)The various rights, remedies, powers, options and elections of Sublandlord and Subtenant reserved, expressed, or contained in this Sublease are distinct, separate and cumulative, and no one of them shall be deemed to be exclusive of the other rights, remedies, powers or options provided herein, or as are
now or may hereafter be conferred upon Sublandlord or Subtenant by statute or by law or equity.
17
(e)During the continuance of any Event of Default, Sublandlord shall apply any remaining balance of the Letter of Credit toward any amounts owed by Subtenant and may institute any legal proceedings to enforce payment of any amounts owed by Subtenant in excess of such Letter of Credit.
(f)No receipt of money by Sublandlord from Subtenant during the continuance of an Event of Default or after a termination of this Sublease shall: (i) reinstate, continue, or extend the term or affect any notice given to Subtenant, (ii) operate as a waiver of the right of Sublandlord to enforce
the payment of amounts under this Sublease then due or to become due, or (iii) operate as a waiver of the right of Sublandlord to recover possession of the Subleased Premises by suit, action, proceeding, or other remedy.
(g)Any sums which may be expended by either party in accordance with the terms of this Sublease that are paid on behalf of the other party in accordance with the terms of this Sublease shall bear interest at the lesser of ten percent (10%) per annum or the maximum rate allowed by law, and the other party shall be liable for such sums plus such interest.
(h)Sublandlord hereby waives any contractual, statutory or other landlord’s or other liens arising out of this Sublease or otherwise.
29.SIGNAGE. Subtenant
has the right erect or attach to the Subleased Premises such signs as it considers proper and necessary in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Building subject to Prime Landlord’s and Sublandlord’s approval (such Sublandlord consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that Subtenant shall have the right to install Subtenant’s name on the entry to the Subleased Premises and the Building directory, and may do so without any further approval of Sublandlord or Prime Landlord.
30.AUTHORITY. Each party to this Sublease represents and warrants to the other party that the representing party has been and is qualified to do business in the State of Texas, that the representing party has full right and authority to enter into this Sublease, and that the person signing on behalf of the representing party was authorized to do so by appropriate
organizational actions.
31.LIABILITY OF SUBLANDLORD. Subtenant shall be in exclusive control and possession of the Subleased Premises, and Sublandlord shall not be liable for any injury or damages to any property or to any person on or about the Subleased Premises, nor for any injury or damage to any property of Subtenant, unless resulting from the misconduct or negligence of Sublandlord, its employees, shareholders, directors, officers, affiliates, contractors, invitees or licensees. The provisions herein permitting Sublandlord to enter and inspect the Subleased Premises are made to ensure that Subtenant is in compliance with the terms and conditions hereof and to make repairs that Subtenant has failed to make in accordance with the terms of this Sublease. Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant for any entry on the Subleased Premises for inspection or maintenance purposes
or any actions with regard to maintenance or operation of the Building, except with respect to the negligence or misconduct of Sublandlord, its agents, employees, shareholders, directors, officers, affiliates, contractors, invitees or licensees.
32.LEGAL EXPENSES. If any legal action or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Sublease, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default or misrepresentation in connection with any provisions of this Sublease, the successful or prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover reasonable fees of attorneys, paralegals, and legal assistants, court costs and all expenses even if not taxable as court costs (including, without limitation, all such fees, costs and expenses incident to appeals), incurred in that action or
18
proceeding,
in addition to any other relief to which such party or parties may be entitled under applicable law.
33.TIME OF THE ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in all provisions of this Sublease.
34.QUIET ENJOYMENT. So long as no Event of Default by Subtenant is occurring under this Sublease, Subtenant shall peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Subleased Premises for the Sublease Term hereby demised without hindrance or interruption by Sublandlord or Prime Landlord or any other person or persons lawfully or equitably claiming by, through or under Sublandlord or Prime Landlord.
35.SCOPE AND INTERPRETATION OF AGREEMENT; CONFIDENTIALITY. This Sublease and all Exhibits set forth all of the covenants, promises,
agreements, conditions, and understandings between Sublandlord and Subtenant concerning the Subleased Premises, and there are no covenants, promises, conditions, or understandings, either oral or written, other than as set forth herein. No subsequent alteration, change or addition to this Sublease shall be binding upon Sublandlord or Subtenant unless reduced to writing and signed by both parties. The laws of the State of Texas shall govern the validity, interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Sublease. This Sublease shall not be more strictly enforced against either party regardless of who was more responsible for its preparation. No part of this Sublease or any memorandum thereof may be recorded in the public records of any municipality or county; provided, however, the Non-Disturbance Agreement may be recorded by either party thereto in the county records in which the Subleased Premises are located.
36.INVALID
PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Sublease shall be determined to be void by any court of competent jurisdiction or by any law enacted subsequent to the date hereof, then such determination shall not affect any other provisions hereof, all of which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
37.CAPTIONS. Any headings preceding the text of the provisions and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Sublease, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.
38.SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All rights, obligations, and liabilities given to, or imposed upon, the parties hereto shall extend to and bind the respective successors, sublessees, licensees, concessionaires and assigns of
such parties, subject to the terms of Section 16 hereof. Nothing contained in this Sublease shall in any manner restrict Sublandlord’s right to assign or encumber this Sublease in connection with Sublandlord’s assignment or encumbrance of the Prime Lease in accordance with the terms of the Prime Lease.

All notices, requests, consents and other communications required or permitted under this Sublease shall be in writing and shall be (as elected by the person giving such notice) hand delivered by messenger or overnight courier service, transmitted by facsimile or email (with original to follow by overnight commercial courier for delivery on the next business day if sent by facsimile or email), or mailed by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid), return receipt requested, addressed to Sublandlord’s Address for Notices

19
the other party any notice or other correspondence from Prime Landlord
that either party may receive (including, without limitation, any notices of default).
40.PERMITTED USES. Subtenant shall use and occupy the Subleased Premises only for the Permitted Use and for no other purpose, without the prior written consent of Sublandlord and Prime Landlord.
41.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. SUBLANDLORD AND SUBTENANT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS SUBLEASE OR THE OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY, OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY.

Landlord as set forth in Section 17 hereof.
(c)SUBTENANT HEREBY AGREES, AS A MATERIAL PART OF THE CONSIDERATION FOR SUBLANDLORD'S ENTERING INTO THIS SUBLEASE, THAT SUBLANDLORD HAS MADE NO WARRANTIES TO SUBTENANT (OR ANY OF SUBTENANT'S EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS) REGARDING THE CONDITION OF THE SUBLEASED PREMISES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH IN THIS SUBLEASE), AND SUBLANDLORD HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY (INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY) THAT THE SUBLEASED PREMISES ARE OR WILL BE SUITABLE FOR SUBTENANT'S INTENDED USE THEREOF.
