3.Removal of Texas Premises. As of the Extension Term Effective Date, the Texas Premises shall no longer constitute part of the "Leased Premises" as defined in the Lease, with the intent and purpose that the Term of the Lease, with respect to the Texas Premises only, be wholly merged and extinguished as of the Extension Term Effective Date, except for, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this First Amendment, any obligations or indemnities expressly provided to survive the expiration or termination of the Lease, including, but not limited to, the Surviving Obligations - it being agreed that nothing herein shall relieve Tenant of its responsibilities under the terms of the Lease with respect to any of Tenant's obligations or liabilities under the Lease arising or accruing prior to the Extension Term Effective Date, or with respect to any third-party claims arising from events occurring in, on or about the Texas Premises, or in connection therewith, and arising or accruing prior to the Texas Premises Expiration Date (including any indemnification obligations and/or insurable claims) all as and to the extent specifically provided for in the Lease.

The words "If Tenant does not exercise its option to extend or further extend the Term, or" set forth in Paragraph 5(c) of the Lease are hereby deleted.
(d)
The following is hereby added to the Lease as a new Paragraph 5(d):
"Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant; provided that such notice is given not less than 18 months prior to the date upon which such termination shall be effective and provided further that such termination notice shall not be delivered prior to December 1, 2018 (said date which is 18 months following the delivery of the termination notice being the "Early Termination Effective Date"). As of the Early Termination Effective Date, this Lease shall terminate with the same force and effect as if the Early Termination Effective Date were the date set forth in the Lease as the expiration date, except for any obligations or indemnities expressly provided to survive the expiration or termination of the Lease, including, but not limited to, the Surviving Obligations - it being agreed that nothing herein shall relieve Tenant of its responsibilities under the terms of the Lease with respect to any of Tenant's obligations or liabilities under the Lease arising or accruing prior to the Early Termination Effective Date, or with respect to any third-party claims arising from events occurring in, on or about the California Premises, or in connection therewith,





and arising or accruing prior to the Early Termination Effective Date (including any indemnification obligations and/or insurable claims) all as and to the extent specifically provided for in the Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease or in this Amendment, in no event shall Tenant be obligated to remove at the expiration or early termination of the Lease, any improvements existing in the California Premises as of the date of this Amendment; it being agreed that all such improvements and alterations may remain in place. If Tenant has not surrendered the California Premises to Landlord in the condition required by Paragraph 26 of the Lease, as amended by this Amendment by the Early Termination Effective Date, Landlord shall nevertheless have the right (but not the obligation) to terminate the Lease as of the Early Termination Effective Date. In the event Tenant does not surrender the California Premises free of any subtenants or other occupants and in accordance with Paragraph 26 of the Lease on the Early Termination Effective Date, then Tenant shall be deemed to be holding over without Landlord's consent and Tenant shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 15 of the Lease and in addition, Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees and court costs) resulting from such failure to surrender, including, without limitation, any claim made by any succeeding tenant based thereon. Moreover, and without waiver of any right on the part of Landlord as a result of Tenant's failure to timely surrender possession of the California Premises to Landlord, Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance only, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease so far as applicable (including Tenant's obligation to pay all costs, expenses and any other additional rent under this Lease), but at a Base Rent equal to a percentage of the Base Rent immediately prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination, which percentage shall be (i) one hundred fifty percent (150%) for the first month of such holding over and (ii) two hundred percent (200%) thereafter. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination shall not constitute a consent to a hold over hereunder or result in an extension of this Lease. The terms of this Paragraph 5(d) shall survive the termination of the Lease and the Early Termination Effective Date."
5.Basic Rent. As of the Extension Term Effective Date, Exhibit D to the Lease is replaced with the following:
