2.             PREMISES

(a)         Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord those premises (hereinafter referred to as the “Premises”), described in Section 1(d) hereof and designated on Exhibit “A” attached hereto in the building commonly known as the 615 West Lafayette, Detroit, Michigan, consisting of approximately 271,500 rentable square feet of floor area (hereinafter referred to as the “Building”), together with the non-exclusive right and easement to use the common facilities which may from time to time be furnished by Landlord in common with Landlord and the tenants and occupants (their agents, employees, customers and invitees) of the Building. The Building and common areas are hereinafter referred to as the “Development,” more particularly described on Exhibit “B” hereto.

(b)         The rentable area of the Premises, as well as the Building shall be computed based upon the 2010 BOMA Standard Method of Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings, ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-2010, and the rentable area of the Premises, as well as the Building, shall contain a proportionate share of the common areas of the Building, utilizing a common area load factor not to exceed twelve percent.

(c)          The rentable square foot area of the Premises shall be measured by Landlord’s Architect, and Landlord’s Architect shall certify the rentable square foot area to Landlord and Tenant; provided, however, that if Tenant disagrees with the measurement or calculation by Landlord’s architect, an independent architect jointly selected by Landlord and Tenant shall promptly measure such portion of the Premises and its determination shall be binding on the parties. In the event such certification or determination shall contain a rentable square foot area different than that previously utilized, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease reflecting the rentable square foot area set forth in such certification and Section 1(k) shall be revised accordingly.

(d)         Tenant shall be allowed access to the Premises and reasonable portions of the common areas twenty-four hours a day, three hundred sixty-five days a year using card readers, or keys, provided that Tenant shall not materially interfere with Landlord’s construction activities. Access to the Premises shall be in the same general location and have the same general utility as the access afforded on each applicable Commencement Date.

3.             TERM

(a)         The term of this Lease shall commence on the Phase One Commencement Date set forth in 1(e) hereof with respect to Floor 3 and on the Phase Two Commencement Date set forth in 1(e) hereof with respect to Floor 2, Floor 4 Main, Floor 5 and Floor 4 Annex; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right, by delivering written notice to Tenant prior to October 1, 2015, to eliminate all or any portion of Floor 4 Main or Floor 4 Annex from the Premises and in such event, all of the provisions of this Lease which are dependent on the size of the Premises shall be appropriately adjusted

5

and at the request of Landlord or Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall enter into an amendment to the Lease reflecting the change to the Premises and the other applicable provisions of this Lease. The term of this Lease shall expire on the Expiration Date set forth in Section 1(f) hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, during the course of Landlord’s construction of the Premises, Tenant and its contractors shall be granted access seven days a week, twenty four hours per day to the Premises in order to install data and telephone wiring and other improvements, provided Tenant coordinates such access with Landlord and Tenant does not unreasonably interfere with Landlord’s completion of the Premises and that Tenant or its contractors provide no interference to the work or other tenants of the Building or Development. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises in the condition required pursuant to this Lease within the time frame set forth in this Lease, if Tenant incurs occupancy costs in the premises to be vacated by Tenant in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, in excess of the occupancy costs to be incurred by Tenant under this Lease (assuming no free rent under this Lease) (“Additional Occupancy Costs”), Tenant shall be permitted to offset the Additional Occupancy Costs against the first due installments of Basic Rental due under this Lease.

(b)           In the event of the inability of Landlord to deliver possession of the Premises or the applicable portion of the Premises as required hereunder on the applicable Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage caused thereby, nor shall this Lease be void or voidable, but Tenant, unless it is responsible for such delay, shall not be liable for any Rent (as hereinafter defined) until such time as Landlord can and does deliver possession of such Premises to Tenant. The applicable Commencement Date (but not the Expiration Date) shall be extended for the period from the date set forth in Section 3(a) and Section 1(e) hereof until the date on which Landlord gives possession of the portion of the Premises required hereunder to Tenant. Upon establishment of the applicable Commencement Date, Tenant shall, if Landlord shall so request, execute and deliver a letter setting forth the applicable Commencement Date.

(c)           From time to time, Tenant shall furnish Landlord, upon request a letter addressed to Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagee stating that Tenant has accepted the Premises for occupancy, the Premises have been completed as herein required, and setting forth the applicable Commencement Date of this Lease and such other information relating to the Premises as either Landlord or its mortgagee may reasonably request. Within twenty business days after Tenant’s request therefor, Landlord shall deliver to any lender holding a security interest in Tenant’s personal property located within the Premises, an acknowledgement and subordination in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Tenant and Tenant’s lender.

(d)           (i)            Tenant shall have the right, if it is not then in default after notice thereof, to extend the term of this Lease for two additional periods of five years each upon the terms and conditions as are stated in this Lease (other than the grant of any extension rights in addition to those provided for in this Section 3(d)) and at the Basic Rental determined in accordance with Section 3(d)(ii) below. Tenant shall exercise such right, it at all, at least seven months prior to the expiration of the original term of this Lease or such

6

prior extension period, as the case may be. If Tenant shall fail to exercise its option to extend the term of this Lease within the period of time for exercise set forth in this Section, Tenant’s option to extend the term of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect until Landlord shall have given Tenant notice of such failure to exercise said option. If Tenant shall fail to exercise its option to extend the term of this Lease within ten business days after receipt of such notice from Landlord, then and only then shall Tenant’s option to extend the term of this Lease expire. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant has not yet exercised its right to so extend the term and Tenant is in default under this Lease after notice thereof but prior to the expiration of any applicable cure period at the expiration of the period for Tenant to exercise such right to extend, the period for Tenant to exercise its right to so extend the term shall be extended for a period equal to the period from Tenant’s receipt of such notice of default until Tenant cures such default (but only if Tenant cures such default within the applicable cure period), which extension period shall commence on the date of such cure. The then current term shall be extended for a like period. In no event shall such extension period exceed three months.

(ii)           In the event Tenant shall exercise its right to so extend the term of this Lease in accordance with Section 3(d)(i) above, the Basic Rental for each such extension period shall be determined in accordance with this Section 3(d)(ii).

(A)          Within ten business days after the exercise by Tenant of such right to extend the term of this Lease for such extension period, Landlord shall submit to Tenant Landlord’s determination of the Market Rental, as defined below, for the Premises for such extension period. If Tenant does not notify Landlord of its acceptance of such Market Rental as so determined by Landlord within ten business days after receipt thereof, then the parties shall proceed as provided in Section (B) below.

(B)          Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon the Market Rental for such extension period, and if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree within ten business days, the determination of the Market Rental shall be made in accordance with Section (C) below.

(C)          Within ten business days after the expiration of the ten business day period referred to in Section (B) above, Landlord and Tenant shall mutually select an MAI appraiser with experience in real estate activities, including at least five years of current experience in appraising office space in Detroit, Michigan. If the parties cannot agree on such an appraiser, then within five business days thereafter, each shall select an independent MAI appraiser meeting the aforementioned criteria and within five business days thereafter the two appointed appraisers shall select a third neutral appraiser meeting the aforementioned criteria and the third appraiser shall determine the Market Rental for such extension period in accordance with Section (D) below. If either Landlord or Tenant shall fail to make such appointment within said five business day period, the other shall make such appointment on its behalf.

(D)          Once the appraiser or third appraiser has been selected as provided in Section (C) above, each of Landlord and Tenant shall submit to such appraiser its suggested Market Rental. As soon thereafter as practical, the appraiser shall select

7

one of the two suggested Market Rentals submitted by Landlord and Tenant (and no other) that is closer to the one determined by the third appraiser. The Market Rental so selected by the appraiser shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. Landlord and Tenant shall equally share the cost of such appraisal.

(iii)          For purposes of this Section 3(d), “Market Rental” shall mean ninety five percent of the projected fair market rent for office space containing the rentable size of the Premises during such extension period, as of the commencement of such extension period, based upon the rates then in effect in the Building and other similar buildings in Detroit, Michigan. The Market Rental shall take into account the refurbishment allowance provided by Landlord in Section 3(d)(iv) below.

(iv)          Landlord shall have no obligation to do any work or perform any special services with respect to the Premises for such extension period, which Tenant agrees to accept in their then “as is” condition; provided, however, that Landlord shall provide Five Dollars per rentable square foot based upon the size of the Premises at the time of Tenant’s exercise of each option. Such amounts may be utilized by Tenant for new floor coverings, wall coverings, painting and such other items as Tenant may desire to “freshen-up” or otherwise improve the Premises in Tenant’s discretion. Landlord shall pay such amounts to Tenant from time to time within thirty days following Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of Tenant’s demand therefor accompanied by reasonable back-up information, including, without limitation, sworn statements and lien waivers. Tenant shall be solely responsible for any amounts in excess of those to be provided by Landlord hereunder for such purposes.

(e)           Provided Tenant is not in default of this Lease on the date set for exercise or the date set for termination, Tenant shall have the one-time right to terminate this Lease at the end of the sixtieth month of the Term, provided that Tenant provides not less than six months prior written notice of such election to terminate. Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease is conditioned upon Landlord receiving the Termination Payment (as hereinafter defined) in immediately available funds on or before the date set for termination. For purposes of this Lease, the Termination Payment shall be an amount which is equal to the sum of the then unamortized costs of the improvements to the Demised Premises, amortized over the initial term of this Lease with interest on the unamortized balance at a rate of Five percent per annum, plus free rent as set forth in Section 1(g), which amount, together with reasonable back up documentation supporting the calculation of the Termination Payment, will be provided to Tenant within sixty days of the Date of Lease.

4.             RENT

(a)           Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rental for the Premises during each year of the term of this Lease the amount set forth in Section 1(g) hereof. Such rental shall be payable in advance, in equal monthly installments upon the first day of each and every month throughout the term of this Lease; provided, however, that if the lease term shall commence on a day other than the first day of a calendar month or shall end on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the rental for such first or last fractional month

8

shall be such proportion of the monthly rental as the number of days in such fractional month bears to the total number of days in the calendar month.

(b)           Rent and all other charges hereunder shall promptly be paid without prior demand therefor and without deductions or setoffs for any reason whatsoever, except as expressly herein provided, and overdue rent and any other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall bear interest during delinquency until paid at a rate of interest equal to two percent in excess of the “Prime Rate” published from time to time by The Wall Street Journal (hereinafter referred to as the “Interest Rate”). In addition, if any payment of rent is not paid when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to three and one half percent of each late payment. Landlord shall have no obligation to accept less than the full amount of all installments of rental and interest thereon and all charges hereunder which are due and owing by Tenant to Landlord, and if Landlord shall accept less than the full amount owing, Landlord may apply the sums received towards any of Tenant’s obligations at Landlord’s discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to pay the late charge or the interest provided for therein on up to two occasions during each calendar year, provided such payments are made to Landlord within ten days after Tenant’s receipt of written notice that the same are past due.

(c)           Landlord’s failure to timely bill Tenant shall in no way excuse Tenant from its payment obligations or constitute a waiver of Landlord’s entitlement to any charges not timely billed by Landlord.

(d)           Tenant agrees that all Basic Rental and additional rent (collectively “Rent”) due under this Lease shall be paid to Landlord by (i) check mailed to the address set forth in Section 1(n) hereof or such other address as Landlord shall designate by written notice to Tenant, (ii) wire transfer of immediately available funds, or (iii) electronic funds transfer.

With respect to Excess Expenses, prior to January 1, 2017, and prior to the beginning of each calendar year thereafter, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s Share of Excess Expenses for the ensuing calendar year, with respect to Excess Taxes, prior to January 1, 2017, and prior to the beginning of each calendar year thereafter, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of Landlord’s estimate of Tenant’s Share of Excess Taxes for the ensuing calendar year. On or before the first day of each month during the ensuing calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth of such estimated amounts, provided that until such notice is given with respect to the ensuing calendar year, Tenant shall continue to pay the amount currently payable pursuant hereto until after the month such notice is given. If at any time or times it appears to Landlord that Tenant’s Share of Excess Expenses or Tenant’s Share of Excess Taxes for the then current calendar year will vary from Landlord’s estimate by more than five percent, Landlord may, by notice to Tenant, revise its estimate for such year and subsequent payments by Tenant for such year shall be based upon such revised estimate.

Within ninety days after the close of each calendar year with respect to Excess Expenses, and within ninety days after the close of each calendar year with respect to Excess Taxes, or as soon after such ninety day period as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement prepared by Landlord of Tenant’s Share of Excess Expenses and Excess Taxes, respectively, for such calendar year. If on the basis of either of such statements, Tenant owes an amount that is less than the estimated payments for such calendar year with respect to Excess Expense or with respect to Excess Taxes previously made by Tenant, Landlord shall credit such excess amount against the next payment(s) due from Tenant to Landlord of Rent. In no event shall a reduction in Taxes or Expenses operate to reduce the rental set forth in Section 1(g) hereof required to be paid hereunder, nor shall any reduction in Taxes or Expenses below the Base Expenses or Base Taxes give rise to any credit to Tenant. If on the basis of such statement, Tenant owes an amount that is more than the estimated payment for such calendar year with respect to Excess Expenses or Excess Taxes previously made by Tenant, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty days after delivery of the statement.

If this Lease shall terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, Tenant’s Share of Excess Expenses and Excess Taxes that are applicable to the calendar year in which such termination shall occur shall be prorated on the basis of the number of calendar days within such year as are within the term of this Lease. Any refund due Tenant with respect to the last year of the Term shall be refunded to it within thirty days after the receipt of such statement.

13

For a period of two years after delivery of each such statement to which such records relate, Tenant shall have the right upon thirty days’ prior written notice to Landlord to inspect Landlord’s records relating to Taxes and Expenses. Such inspection shall be conducted at Landlord’s offices during normal business hours at Tenant’s expense. Such inspection may not be conducted by a person or firm compensated on a contingent fee basis. If such inspection shall disclose that Tenant has paid five percent or more in excess of that required to be paid hereunder and Landlord shall accept such determination, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of such inspection. Tenant shall have no right to offset the amount of any overpayment unless Landlord shall accept such determination. If Landlord and Tenant do not agree on any overpayment or underpayment within thirty days, either Landlord or Tenant may cause an independent accounting firm to resolve the dispute, whose determination shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant and the firm’s fees shall be split equally between Landlord and Tenant.

All repairs made by or on behalf of Tenant shall be made and performed in such manner as Landlord may designate, by contractors or mechanics reasonably approved by Landlord and in accordance with the Rules relating thereto annexed to this Lease as Exhibit “E” hereto and all laws, ordinances and regulations. Tenant shall provide Landlord with unconditional lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen providing services or furnishing material to or for Tenant in connection with such repairs. Landlord has no obligation and has made no promise to

14

alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof and no representations respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building have been made by Landlord to Tenant except as expressly set forth herein. Tenant will pay for any repairs to the Premises or the Building or the Development made necessary by any negligence or carelessness of Tenant or its employees or persons permitted in the Building or the Development by Tenant, unless the same are covered by the insurance carried or required to be carried by Landlord hereunder.

8.             IMPROVEMENTS AND ALTERATIONS

(a)           As used in this Lease, the term “Landlord’s Work” shall refer to the improvements set forth on Exhibit “C” attached hereto and made a part hereof, which are intended to provide Tenant with a turn-key build-out inclusive of the restrooms on the floors on which the Premises are situated. Landlord shall cause Landlord’s Work to be constructed substantially in accordance with the plans and specifications theretofore prepared by Landlord’s architect. All of Landlord’s Work (if plans and specs are necessary) shall be performed by Landlord in accordance with plans and specifications prepared by Landlord and subject to Tenant’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall revise such plans and specifications as reasonably required in order to obtain Tenant’s approval. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(b)(ii) below, all of Landlord’s Work shall be performed by Landlord at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall complete all of Landlord’s Work in a first-class and good and workmanlike manner, using good materials, in accordance with the approved plans and specifications (if necessary), and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations of the federal, state and municipal governments, or any department or division thereof, including, without limitation, building codes.

(b)           (i)            (A)          Based upon the mutually approved space plan prepared by Landlord’s Architect, Landlord’s Architect shall prepare plans and specifications for Landlord’s Work. Landlord shall submit such plans and specifications to Tenant for Tenant’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant shall fail to supply such approval or comments in writing within ten business days after receipt thereof, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such plans and specifications. The cost of the space plan and the cost of such final plans and specifications shall be paid by Landlord but shall be charged against the Tenant Allowance (as hereinafter defined). To the extent the plans and specifications are identified in Exhibit “C” attached hereto, the plans and specifications have been approved in advance by Landlord.

(B)         Upon approval of such plans and specifications by Tenant, Landlord shall obtain at least three competitive bids (where reasonably available) for all major trades (including, but not limited to, HVAC and electrical) constituting Landlord’s Work. Tenant may add bidders to the bid list. Such bids shall be submitted to Tenant prior to the award of the contract to which the same relate. The work shall be awarded to the low bidder, provided it is a responsible party (and

15

reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Tenant), its bid is complete and Landlord has no other reasonable objection to it. Based upon such competitive bids, Landlord shall submit the cost of Landlord’s Work to Tenant, for Tenant’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event Tenant does not approve or submit comments to such costs to Landlord within ten business days after receipt thereof, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such costs. If Tenant does not approve such plans and specifications and/or costs, Landlord and Tenant shall cooperate in order to revise the plans and specifications in a manner acceptable to the parties. Landlord’s Work shall be performed on a so-called “open book” basis, with Tenant having the right to audit all of Landlord’s records relating to the cost of such work.

(ii)           (A)          Landlord shall complete the Premises in accordance with the approved plans and specifications (“Plans”) up to a cost of [***] per rentable square foot of the Premises (prorated for each Phase) (the “Tenant Allowance”); provided, however, the cost of the renovation of the restrooms shall not be applied towards the Tenant Allowance and the Tenant Allowance shall not be paid on the square footage attributable to the restrooms. Tenant shall pay all costs in excess of the Tenant Allowance within thirty days after the later to occur of (i) receipt by Tenant of an invoice therefor, and (ii) the Commencement Date applicable to the portion of the Premises to which such excess costs apply; provided, however, if Tenant disputes any such costs in excess of the Tenant Allowance, Tenant may hold back the disputed costs in an amount not to exceed ten percent of the Tenant Allowance pursuant to this subsection. If the cost of so completing the Premises in accordance with the approved plans and specifications is less than the Tenant Allowance, at Tenant’s election, Tenant may utilize all or a portion of such excess for the cost of the improvements to the Premises made by Tenant and its furniture, furnishings, trade fixtures and equipment to be installed in the Premises and/or applied as a credit against Rent first becoming due hereunder.

(B)          In computing Landlord’s costs of completing the Premises, Landlord shall receive a fee of two percent for profit, and its actual overhead and administrative costs.

(iii)          Landlord shall diligently prosecute Landlord’s Work to completion without interruption or delay, in a first-class and good and workmanlike manner, using good materials, in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations of the federal, state and municipal governments, or any department or division thereof, including, without limitation, building codes and installation of required fire suppression equipment. Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall procure all building and other permits, approvals and inspections necessary for performing Landlord’s Work pursuant to the approved plans and specifications, the cost of which shall be charged against the Tenant Allowance and deliver possession to Tenant of (A) Phase One on or before September 24, 2015, and (B) Phase Two on or before April 1, 2016.

16

(iv)          Landlord has designated Bedrock Management Services LLC as its representative who shall have general responsibility for the supervision, management and completion of Landlord’s Work, and Tenant may direct to it all inquiries regarding Landlord’s Work and the scheduling of Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s inspections thereof, and Tenant’s installation of its fixtures, equipment and other improvements, and Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises.

(v)           Tenant shall have the right to designate a representative who shall have the right (but not the obligation) to attend all construction meetings, to inspect the performance of Landlord’s Work and to notify Landlord in writing if said performance does not conform to the approved plans and specifications. If there is a disagreement as to whether such performance substantially conforms to the approved plans and specifications which cannot be resolved by the parties within three days after Landlord’s receipt of such notice, then such matter shall be submitted to the Landlord’s Architect, and its decision shall be controlling.

(vi)          In the event Tenant desires to have improvements installed in the Premises in addition to or in lieu of the improvements provided for in the approved plans and specifications, Tenant shall so advise Landlord and submit to Landlord complete plans and specifications for such improvements. Tenant shall immediately cause such plans and specifications to be revised in order to comply with Landlord’s reasonable comments to such plans and specifications. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs associated with such changes. Upon approval of such plans and specifications by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, Landlord shall advise Tenant of the cost of constructing and installing such improvements, and upon approval of such costs by Tenant, Landlord will commence construction and installation of such improvements; provided, however, that Tenant may revise such plans in order to reduce such costs, subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(vii)         During the construction of Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a schedule for the completion of the remainder of Landlord’s Work and such other information as Tenant may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant if it fails to meet such schedule.

(viii)        (A)          From and after the commencement of Landlord’s Work in the Premises, Landlord shall supply to Tenant weekly status reports. Each Phase shall be deemed completed and possession delivered to Tenant when Landlord has substantially completed its improvements subject only to the completion of details of construction and mechanical adjustments which do not materially interfere with Tenant use of such Premises and Landlord has delivered to Tenant Landlord’s architect’s certificate of substantial completion and a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy issued by the applicable governmental entity. If a temporary certificate of occupancy has been issued, Landlord shall diligently complete the items necessary in order to obtain a permanent certificate of occupancy and obtain the same.

17

(B)          For purposes hereof, “Tenant Delay” shall mean any incremental delay in Landlord’s performance of Landlord’s Work that occurs as the result of (i) any change by Tenant to the space plan after submission thereof to Landlord and/or the approved plans and specifications for such work; (ii) any delay in such work caused by the installation of Tenant’s fixtures in the Premises or the performance of any other work by Tenant at the Premises; and (iii) Tenant specifying any materials or equipment which are not readily available in the market and require long-lead time to obtain. Upon the occurrence of any event that Landlord contends is a Tenant Delay, Landlord shall promptly deliver notice to Tenant thereof, together with Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the expected delay. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delay shall only be considered a Tenant Delay if such delay causes an incremental delay in the completion of the Tenant Improvements. For example, if Landlord is delayed by the unavailability of certain materials and Tenant causes a delay while Landlord is delayed by such unavailability of materials so that no further actual incremental delay is caused by Tenant, such delay by Tenant shall not constitute a “Tenant Delay” hereunder. In the event of any Tenant Delays, the Premises shall be deemed to have been completed on the date Landlord and Tenant reasonably determine the Premises would have been so completed but for such Tenant Delays.

(ix)            If any dispute shall arise as to whether Landlord has so completed the Premises on the date of such completion, the matter shall be submitted to Landlord’s Architect for its determination and its decision shall be binding upon the parties.

(x)             Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Tenant shall have the right prior to the applicable Commencement Date to submit a so-called punch list of incomplete or defective items in Landlord’s Work and Landlord shall promptly remedy all such items. If any dispute shall arise between the parties as to such list, such matter shall be submitted to Landlord’s Architect for determination and its decision shall be binding upon the parties.

(xi)            Whenever matters are submitted to Landlord’s Architect for determination pursuant to the terms of this Lease, the fee of Landlord’s Architect shall be charged against the Tenant Allowance.

(c)           Landlord guarantees all work performed by or for Landlord in connection with the completion of each Phase against defective workmanship and materials for the period of one year from the substantial completion thereof. Thereafter, Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in enforcing the warranties of workmanship and materials which Landlord received with respect to such construction to the extent that the repair thereof is Tenant’s responsibility hereunder.

(d)           (i)            Tenant shall not make any alterations, additions or improvements without the prior written consent of Landlord. Any such alterations, additions or improvements (except movable furniture and trade fixtures) shall at once become a part of the realty and belong to Landlord. The same shall be made by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Subject to Section 8(c), upon termination of this Lease, Tenant shall

18

upon demand by Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, forthwith remove any alterations, additions or improvements.

(ii)           Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8(d)(i) or (e) to the contrary, Landlord’s consent shall not be required with respect to non-material, nonstructural interior alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises and Landlord will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any material non-structural interior alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises and/or to any structural alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises, provided notice is first given in writing by Tenant to Landlord and written approval by Landlord is required for any alteration, addition or improvement that would materially affect any mechanical or electrical system. For purposes of this Section 8(d), demising walls, but not interior office walls, are deemed structural.

(iii)          Landlord acknowledges that Tenant’s furniture, trade fixtures, business equipment and personalty shall not be deemed alterations, additions or improvements which become Landlord’s property pursuant to Section 8(d).

(e)           Any repairs made pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof or alterations and improvements made pursuant to this Section 8 by Tenant as required and permitted hereunder shall be made and performed (i) as Landlord may designate on a reasonable basis, (ii) in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations of Landlord and governmental authorities having jurisdiction, (iii) in the case of new construction in keeping with plans and specifications theretofore having been approved in advance by Landlord, (iv) using mechanics and contractors having been approved by Landlord which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall do all such work affecting the structural portions of the Building and the mechanical and electrical systems thereof, and (v) in a reasonable fashion to minimize noise, litter and/or odors resulting therefrom. The work performed by Landlord affecting the structural portions of the Building and the mechanical and electrical systems thereof pursuant to subsection 8(e)(iv) shall be at reasonable and competitive cost. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable costs of third party review of Tenant’s proposed structural alterations or those to the mechanical or electrical systems.

(f)            Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known. Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or location of the parking and common areas of the Development. In exercising its rights pursuant to Section 8(f) hereof, Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s access to the Premises or its operations therein.

9.             LIENS

Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within twenty days following receipt of notice of the imposition of any such lien,

19

cause the same to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall reasonably deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be deemed additional rent and shall be payable by Tenant on demand with interest at the Interest Rate.

10.          USE OF PREMISES

(a)           The Premises are leased to Tenant for the use set forth in Section 1(1) hereof and for no other purpose whatsoever.

Tenant agrees to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances and regulations and comply with all requirements of Landlord’s insurance policies and the American Insurance Association now or hereafter in force in connection with its use of the Premises.

Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done on or about the Premises or bring or keep anything therein which will in any way increase the fire insurance premium upon the Building. Tenant shall not use any portion of the Premises for the preparation, sale or consumption of food by the public. Tenant shall have the right to contest, without cost to Landlord, the validity or application of any such governmental law, ordinance or regulation required to be complied with by Tenant pursuant to this Section 10 and may postpone compliance therewith, provided such contest does not subject Landlord to criminal prosecution for noncompliance therewith and, further, provided, that Tenant promptly pays all fines, penalties and other costs and interest thereon imposed upon Landlord as a result of such noncompliance.

(b)           During the Lease Term, Landlord shall not permit any portion of the Development to be used or occupied for a use which would be inconsistent with maintaining a highly respected public image for the Building, including, without limitation, any of the “Prohibited Uses,” described on Exhibit “I” hereto. Tenant agrees not to use, or permit to be used any portion of, the Premises for any of the Prohibited Uses.

(c)           During the Term, without the prior written consent of Tenant, which may be withheld in Tenant’s sole and absolute discretion, Landlord shall not suffer or permit any portion of the Building (other than the Premises) to be occupied by any residential mortgage lender or residential mortgage broker, real estate broker, bank (other than a full service retail branch bank that does not specialize in the making of residential mortgage loans as a primary business) or title insurance company (collectively, “Tenant’s Exclusive Uses”).

Any changes to the HVAC system require approval of Landlord and shall be at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord’s approval of HVAC changes shall not constitute Landlord’s representation that the HVAC system as modified will meet the specifications set forth in the Building Design Criteria. Similarly, changes to the configuration of the Premises or Tenant’s use of, and level of occupancy in, the Premises may affect Landlord’s ability to deliver HVAC meeting the specifications of the Building Design Criteria. Landlord shall make HVAC services available to Tenant at all times beyond Normal Business Hours promptly upon written request (which may be by email) from Tenant.

Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diligently restore any services provided by Landlord hereunder which are disrupted.

(ii)                                  Tenant shall have the right to have Landlord install, at Tenant’s expense, and all costs associated with installation of any upgrades and additional HVAC equipment as Tenant shall determine to be necessary or desirable, including, without limitation, additional rooftop HVAC units.

(b)                                      Tenant shall pay for all electric service used or consumed in the Premises, but excluding electrical current required by the building standard heating and air conditioning systems and the lighting of the common areas of the Building. The public utility company supplying electricity to the Building, or Landlord, as the case may be, shall provide an electric meter for measuring Tenant’s consumption of Tenant’s electricity.

Landlord may elect to purchase electricity in bulk for the Building and furnish the Premises with electricity. Tenant shall pay the charge for electricity monthly as and when invoiced therefor to said public utility company or Landlord, as the case may be. If Landlord has elected to purchase electricity in bulk for the Building, electricity shall be charged to Tenant at the secondary rates which Tenant would pay as a direct customer of the utility company providing service to Landlord.

(c)                                       Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall make arrangements directly with the telephone company for telephone service in the Premises.

Landlord shall replace lost access cards, at the expense of Tenant, for a charge of Ten Dollars per card. Cardholders shall not be required to sign in at the security desk or elsewhere in the Common Areas provided the Cardholders have a Tenant or Building management issued identification access card.

Landlord shall make such facilities available to Tenant and Tenant’s employees for a fee to be established by Landlord from time to time. Tenant’s rights to the use of such facilities shall be subject to Landlord’s agreements with the owners of such facilities and may be discontinued by Landlord if the agreements with the owners of such facilities shall expire or terminate or if such agreements no longer make such facilities available for Tenant’s use.

12.                               RULES AND REGULATIONS

Tenant agrees to abide by all rules and regulations of the Development attached hereto as Exhibit “E,” and to all reasonable additions and modifications thereto made by Landlord. These regulations are imposed for the cleanliness, good appearance, proper maintenance, good order, and proper enjoyment of the Development by all tenants and their clients, customers and employees. The modifications to such rules and regulations shall be consistent with the operation of Class A office building in the central business district of the City of Detroit area and shall be enforced on a nondiscriminatory basis.

23

14.                               FIRE OR CASUALTY

(a)                                      If the Building, the Premises or access to them shall be partially or totally damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty (each, a “Casualty”) and if this Lease is not terminated as provided below, then Landlord shall repair and restore the Premises and the portions of the Building servicing the Premises to substantially their condition prior to such fire or other casualty (the “Required Restoration Work”) with reasonable dispatch and diligently prosecute such repair and restoration to completion. In no event shall Landlord be required to repair or replace Tenant’s leasehold improvements, merchandise, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment or other personal property.

(b)                                      If all or part of the Premises shall be rendered Untenantable (as hereafter defined) by reason of a Casualty, the Basic Rental and all additional rent attributable to the Premises or portion thereof which is Untenantable shall be abated for the period from the date of the Casualty to the earlier of (i) the date which is ninety days after the Premises or such portion thereof are no longer Untenantable or (ii) the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises for the ordinary conduct of business (in which case the Basic Rental and the additional rent allocable to such reoccupied portion shall be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy). “Untenantable” means that Tenant shall be unable to occupy and shall not be occupying the Premises or the applicable portion thereof for the conduct of business ordinarily conducted in the Premises as a result of the Casualty.

(c)                                  If by reason of a Casualty (i) the Building shall be totally damaged or destroyed, or (ii) the Building shall be so damaged or destroyed (whether or not the Premises are damaged or destroyed) that repair or restoration shall require more than one hundred eighty days, and/or if the Casualty is not insured under the insurance Landlord is required to carry or carries hereunder, then in any such case Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice given to the other party within thirty days after Landlord receives or should have received the Estimate (as defined in Section 14(d) below) and Tenant shall have no restoration obligations with respect to the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord may not terminate this Lease unless clause (i) or (ii) above applies and Landlord has elected to and does not rebuild the Building following the Casualty.

(d)                                      (i)                                Within sixty days after the date of any Casualty, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant an estimate prepared by a reputable third party disinterested contractor selected by Landlord and reasonably approved by Tenant setting forth such contractor’s estimate as to the time reasonably required to perform the Required Restoration Work; provided, that if Landlord shall fail to deliver such estimate within twenty days after Landlord’s receipt of written notice that Landlord has failed to provide such Estimate, Tenant may designate a contractor (subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval thereof; provided, that if Landlord fails to approve or disapprove any contractor designated by Tenant within ten days after the giving of notice by Tenant, such contractor shall be deemed to be approved by Landlord) to prepare the same (the contractor designated by either Landlord or Tenant

24

pursuant to this sentence is called the “Contractor” and the estimate prepared by the Contractor is called the “Estimate”).

(ii)                                  In the event according to the Estimate, the Premises cannot be restored to tenantable condition within a period of one hundred eighty days following the Casualty, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice (“Casualty Termination Notice”) to Landlord within thirty days following Tenant’s receipt of the Estimate. In addition, if Landlord has not completed such restoration within such one hundred eighty day period, and if Landlord does not complete such restoration within thirty days after notice from Tenant of such failure to complete such restoration, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease at any time after the expiration of such one hundred eighty day period and prior to the completion of such restoration by written notice to Landlord.

(iii)                               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if following a Casualty twenty-five percent or more of the Premises is Untenantable for a period of thirty days, and within such thirty day period Landlord has not made reasonably equivalent space in the Building available to Tenant, Tenant may terminate the Lease upon notice to Landlord; such notice shall also be deemed a Casualty Termination Notice.

(iv)                              If Tenant gives a Casualty Termination Notice pursuant to this Section 14(d), this Lease shall terminate on the thirtieth day after such notice is given by Tenant or such longer time period (not to exceed one hundred eighty days) as specified in such Casualty Termination Notice and Tenant shall vacate the Premises and surrender the same to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease; provided, that Tenant shall have no restoration obligations with respect to portions of the Premises rendered Untenantable by such Casualty. Upon any such termination of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall be released from any and all liability thereafter accruing hereunder, and any Rent paid in advance by Tenant shall be refunded to Tenant within thirty days after termination of the Lease.

(v)                                 Time is of the essence with respect to all of the time periods set forth in this Section 14(d).

(e)                                  (i)                                Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the performance by Landlord of the Required Restoration Work and the repair or replacement by Tenant of Tenant’s property, provided that Tenant shall not unreasonably interfere with the Required Restoration Work and such entry by Tenant shall be at its sole risk. Prior to the substantial completion of the Required Restoration Work, Landlord shall, to the extent appropriate in accordance with good construction practices, provide Tenant and Tenant’s contractor, subcontractors and materialmen access to the Premises to repair or replace Tenant’s property (but not to occupy the same for the conduct of business).

(ii)                             Such access by Tenant shall be deemed to be subject to all of the applicable provisions of this Lease, except that there shall be no obligation on the part of Tenant solely because of such access to pay any Rent with respect to the affected portion

25

of the Premises for any period prior to substantial completion of the Required Restoration Work.

15.                               EMINENT DOMAIN

(a)                            If the whole or any substantial part of the Premises or the Building shall be taken by any public authority under the power of eminent domain, then the term of this Lease shall cease on the part so taken on the date possession of that part shall be required for public use, and any Rent paid in advance of such date shall be refunded to Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to the other, which notice shall be delivered within thirty days following the date notice is received of such taking. In the event that neither party hereto shall terminate this Lease, Landlord shall, to the extent the proceeds of the condemnation award (other than any proceeds awarded for the value of any land taken) are available, make all necessary repairs to the Premises and the Building to render and restore the same to a complete architectural unit and Tenant shall continue in possession of the portion of the Premises not taken under the power of eminent domain, under the same terms and conditions as are herein provided, except that the Rent reserved herein, Tenant’s Share pursuant to Section 1(j) hereof and the parking spaces pursuant to Section 1(o) hereof shall each be reduced in direct proportion to the amount of the Premises so taken. All damages awarded for such taking shall belong to and be the property of Landlord, whether such damages be awarded as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or to the fee of the Premises; provided, however, Landlord shall not be entitled to any portion of the award made to Tenant for removal and reinstallation of trade fixtures or moving expenses.

(b)                            In the event of a partial taking which does not result in the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the restoration of the Premises as nearly as practicable to a complete unit of like quality and character as existed just prior to such taking. In such event, the Rent shall abate during the period of demolition and restoration to the extent the Premises are unusable, provided that Landlord receives an award therefor.

(c)                             Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 15 hereof, Tenant shall have the right to make a claim against the condemning authority (but not Landlord) for compensation for the unamortized cost of Tenant’s improvements, alterations or additions made to the Premises at Tenant’s cost, such amortization to be computed on a straight line basis over the term of this Lease.

16.                               ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

(a)                       Except as expressly permitted pursuant to this Section 16, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, encumber or hypothecate this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of the Premises by any party other than Tenant. Landlord agrees that it will not unreasonably withhold or condition its consent to a proposed assignment or subletting. In determining reasonableness, Landlord may take into consideration all relevant factors surrounding the

26

proposed assignment or subletting, including, without limitation: (i) the business reputation of the proposed assignee or subtenant and its officers, directors and owners; (ii) the nature of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and its effect on the other tenants of the Building; and (iii) restrictions, if any, contained in leases affecting the Development. Except as provided in Section 16(c) hereof, this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest herein, be assignable as to the interest of Tenant by operation of law without the consent of Landlord.

(b)                                 If at any time or from time to time during the Term, Tenant desires to sublet all or any part of the Premises or to assign this Lease, Tenant shall give notice to Landlord setting forth the proposed subtenant or assignee, the terms of the proposed subletting and the space so proposed to be sublet or the terms of the proposed assignment, as the case may be. If the proposed subletting or assignment is to a non-affiliate of Tenant, Landlord may terminate this Lease as the portion of the Premises which Tenant proposes to sublet or assign, such termination right to be exercised by notice from Landlord to Tenant within ten days after Tenant’s notice to Landlord of the proposed sublet or assignment, provided that such termination notice by Landlord shall not be effective if, within ten days after Landlord’s termination notice to Tenant, Tenant give notice to Landlord retracting the proposed sublet or assignment notice.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 16(a) and Section 16(b) hereof, without Landlord’s approval or consent and without notice to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right at any time and from time to time to sublease or assign all or any portion of the Premises to any affiliate of Tenant and any affiliate of any of the beneficial owners of Tenant or its parents or subsidiaries at any level, any entity in which Tenant has a controlling interest, or to any successor entity, whether by merger, consolidation or combination or otherwise or to any entity that purchases all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets. For purposes hereof an affiliate is any entity which controls Tenant, is controlled by Tenant or is under common control with Tenant, or in which Tenant or any affiliate of Tenant or any beneficial owner of Tenant or its parent or subsidiaries has any interest or is an officer, director, shareholder, partner, member or manager or at any other level. Tenant shall, upon written request from Landlord, provide Landlord with the names of any sublessees or assignees of Tenant. Nothing contained in this Lease provides any subtenant or assignee with any right to use the Premises for any use other than Tenant’s Use as set forth in Section 1(I).

(d)                                 Regardless of Landlord’s consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant’s obligation or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the rental and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of rental by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of default of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee or successor. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments or subletting of this Lease or amendments or modifications to this Lease with assignees of Tenant, upon first notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant,

27

and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and such action shall not relieve Tenant of liability under this Lease.

(e)                             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 16, Tenant may, without Landlord’s consent, without notice to Landlord and without extending any option to Landlord, sublet portions of the Premises to title companies, appraisal companies, casualty insurance agencies, mortgage brokers and/or real estate brokers, home builders and/or banking institutions, mortgage and/or finance companies and any other entities, so long as the foregoing are operating in conjunction with Tenant in the Premises or is an affiliate of Tenant and are operating as a use described in Section 1(1) above.

(a)                            Subject to applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations, Landlord and its agents shall have the right following not less than seventy-two hours’ notice (except in an Emergency (as hereinafter defined)) to enter the Premises at all reasonable times for the purpose of examining or inspecting the same, showing the same to prospective purchasers or tenants of the Building (in the final 9 months of the term), and as necessary to perform its obligations hereunder. Landlord may erect, use and maintain scaffolding, pipes, conduits and other necessary structures in and through the Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work performed, provided that the business of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. If Tenant shall not personally be present to open and permit an entry into the Premises at any time when such entry by Landlord is necessary or permitted hereunder, Landlord may enter by means of a master key or, in emergencies, may enter forcibly, without liability to Tenant. In exercising its rights pursuant to this Section 17 hereof, Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts not to unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s operations in the Premises and to minimize any such interference.

(b)                            Tenant shall have the exclusive right (via card reader devices or equipment) to access the telecom and electric closets on each floor of the Building upon which a portion of the Premises is located. In exercising its rights pursuant to this Section 17(b) Tenant shall not disrupt and/or disable the equipment located within such closets. Tenant shall have the right to install additional equipment within such closets at Tenant’s expenses, subject to the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless for any damages incurred by Landlord arising from the acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees and contractors in such telecom and electric closets.

(c)                             As used herein, the term “Emergency” shall mean an event requiring immediate action, e.g., danger to health, life or property, fire water seepage, sewer backup or cessation or interruption of any facility servicing the like.

18.                               SUBORDINATION

This Lease is and shall be subject and subordinate, at all times, to (a) the lien of any mortgage or mortgages which may now or hereafter affect the Building, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security thereof and to the interest thereon, and to any agreements at any time made modifying, supplementing, extending or replacing any such mortgages, and (b) any ground or underlying lease which may now or hereafter affect the Building, including all amendments, renewals, modifications, consolidation, replacements and extensions thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the request of the holder of any of the aforesaid mortgage or mortgages or the lessor under the aforesaid ground or underlying lease, this Lease may be made prior and superior to such mortgage or mortgages and/or such ground or underlying lease. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if the Development is subject to mortgage on the date of this Lease, then within thirty days after the execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord shall obtain a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement for Tenant’s benefit from the current mortgagee(s) of the Development in a commercially reasonable form reasonably acceptable to Tenant. In addition, as a condition precedent to Tenant subordinating this Lease to any future mortgage or ground lease, Landlord shall obtain a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from such mortgagee or ground lessor in a commercially reasonable form reasonably acceptable to Tenant.

At the request of Landlord, Tenant shall execute and deliver such further instruments as may be reasonably required to implement the provisions of this Section 18, provided the same are reasonably acceptable to Tenant.

19.                               NON-LIABILITY

(a)                            Except for the negligence or wrongful acts of Landlord, its agents, contractors and employees, Landlord shall not be responsible or liable to Tenant for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by or through the acts or omissions of persons occupying adjoining premises or any part of the premises adjacent to or connected with the Premises or any part of the Building or for any loss or damage resulting to Tenant or his property from burst, stopped or leaking water, gas, sewer or steam pipes, or for any damage or loss of property within the Premises from any cause whatsoever, and no such occurrence shall be deemed to be an actual or constructive eviction from the Premises or result in an abatement of rental.

(b)                            In the event of any sale or transfer (including any transfer by operation of law) of the Premises, Landlord (and any subsequent owner of the Premises making such a transfer) shall be relieved from any and all obligations and liabilities under this Lease, except such obligations and liabilities as shall have arisen during Landlord’s (or such subsequent owner’s) respective period of ownership, provided that the transferee assumes in writing all of the obligations of Landlord under this Lease.

(c)                             If Landlord shall fail to perform any covenant, term or condition of this Lease upon Landlord’s part to be performed, and if as a consequence of such default, Tenant shall recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such judgment and levied thereon against the right, title and interest of Landlord in the Building and out of rents or other

29

income from the Building receivable by Landlord, or out of the consideration received by Landlord from the sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord’s right, title and interest in the Building, and neither Landlord nor any of its partners shall be liable for any deficiency.

20.                               INDEMNIFICATION OF LANDLORD

(a)                                 Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord against any and all claims or liability for damages to any person or property in, on or about the Premises from the negligence or wrongful acts of Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees, subtenants, assignees and licensees.

(b)                                 Tenant shall procure and keep in effect during the entire term hereof commercial general liability and property damage insurance protecting Landlord and Tenant from all causes, including their own negligence, having as limits of liability One Million Dollars for damages resulting from one occurrence. Tenant shall deliver policies of such insurance or certificates thereof to Landlord upon execution of this Lease by Tenant and thereafter at least thirty days before the expiration dates of expiring policies. Such insurance shall not be cancelable without thirty days’ written notice to Landlord, and in the event Tenant shall fail to procure such insurance, Landlord may at its option procure the same for the account of Tenant, and the reasonable cost thereof shall be paid to Landlord as an additional charge upon receipt by Tenant of bills therefor.

21.                               WAIVER OF SUBROGATION

Landlord and Tenant shall each be released from any liability resulting from damage by fire or casualty (irrespective of the cause of such fire or casualty) upon the express proviso that if at any time their respective insurers shall refuse to permit waivers of subrogation, Landlord or Tenant may in each instance revoke said waiver of subrogation effective thirty days from the date of notice to the other unless within such thirty day period, the other is able to secure and furnish (without additional expense) insurance in other companies with such waiver of subrogation.

22.                               ATTORNEY’S FEES

In the event of any legal action or proceeding brought by either party against the other arising out of this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in such action and such amount shall be included in any judgment rendered in such proceeding.

23.                               WAIVER

(a)                            No waiver of any provision of this Lease or of any breach hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof, or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. Consent to or approval of any act requiring consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of consent to or approval of any subsequent act. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord’s agents

30

during the term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, unless done in writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of the keys to any employee or agent of Landlord shall not operate as a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.

(b)                            Landlord and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the parties against the other in any matter whatsoever (except for personal injury or property damage) arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the relationship of landlord and tenant, Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or any emergency or other statutory remedy with respect thereto.

24.                                    Intentionally Deleted

25.                                    LANDLORD’S REMEDIES

(a)                            The occurrence of any one or more of the following events (hereinafter referred to as “Events of Default”) shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant: (i) if Tenant shall fail to pay the Basic Rental or any other sum when and as the same becomes due and payable and such failure shall continue for more than ten days after written notice thereof from Landlord; or (ii) if Tenant shall fail to perform or observe any other term hereof or of the rules and regulations referred to in Section 12 hereof to be performed or observed by Tenant, such failure shall continue for more than thirty days after written notice thereof from Landlord, and Tenant shall not within such thirty day period commence with due diligence and dispatch the curing of such default, or, having so commenced, shall thereafter fail or neglect to prosecute or complete with due diligence and dispatch the curing of such default; (iii) if Tenant shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due or shall file a petition in bankruptcy, or shall be adjudicated as insolvent or shall file a petition in any proceeding seeking any reorganization, arrangements, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, or shall file an answer admitting or fail timely to contest or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or any material part of its properties; (iv) if within ninety days after the commencement of any proceeding against Tenant seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any present or future statute, law or regulation, such proceeding shall not have been dismissed, or if, within ninety days after the appointment without the consent of acquiescence of Tenant, of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of Tenant or of any material part of its properties, such appointment shall not have been vacated; or (v) if this Lease or any estate of Tenant hereunder shall be levied upon under any attachment or execution and such attachment or execution is not vacated within sixty days.

(b)                            Any time an uncured Event of Default by Tenant as set forth in Section 25(a) hereof exists, Landlord, at its option, may terminate this Lease upon and by giving written notice of termination to Tenant as required by law (currently, at least thirty days prior written notice), or Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may at any time after such default or breach, without notice or demand additional to that provided in Section 25(a)

31

hereof (other than notice and/or demand required by applicable law), and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any other right or remedy which Landlord may have by reason of such default or breach (other than the aforesaid right of termination) exercise any one or more of the remedies hereinafter provided in this Section 25(b), or as otherwise provided by law, all of such remedies (whether provided herein or by law) being cumulative and not exclusive:

(c)                                  Landlord shall have the right to recover the rental and all other amounts payable by Tenant under this Lease as they become due (unless and until Landlord has terminated this Lease and all other damages incurred by Landlord as a result of an Event of Default.) Landlord may enter the Premises either by summary proceedings or by any other lawful proceeding (without thereby incurring any liability to Tenant and without such entry being constituted an eviction of Tenant or termination of this Lease) and take possession of the Premises excluding all personal property of every kind on the Premises not owned by Landlord, and Landlord shall at any time and from time to time relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant, for such terms, upon such conditions and at such rental as Landlord may in the exercise of its commercially reasonable judgment deem proper. In the event of such reletting, (i) Landlord shall receive and collect the Rent therefrom and shall first apply such Rent against such expenses as Landlord may have incurred in recovering possession of the Premises, placing the same in good order and condition, altering or repairing the same for reletting, and such other expenses, commissions and charges, including attorney’s fees and real estate commissions, which Landlord may have paid or reasonably incurred in connection with such repossession and reletting, and then shall apply such Rent against the Rent as it comes due under this Lease, and (ii) Landlord may execute any lease in connection with such reletting in Landlord’s name, as Landlord may see fit, and the tenant of such reletting shall be under no obligation to see to the application by Landlord of any Rent collected by Landlord.

(d)                                 Landlord shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in the event of an uncured Event of Default, but Landlord shall not be required to favor the Premises if there are other vacant comparable premises in the Building.

(e)                                  Upon a termination of this Lease by Landlord pursuant to Section 25(b) hereof, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant the aggregate of: (i) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rental which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rental which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the then reasonable rental value of the Premises during such period; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rental for the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of award exceeds the reasonable rental value of the Premises for such period; and (iv) Landlord’s other actual damages (if any), proximately caused by the Event of Default. The “worth at the time of award” of the amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above is computed from the date such Rent was due or would have been due, as the case may be, by allowing interest at the rate of two percent in excess of the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal or, if a higher rate is legally permissible, at the highest rate legally permitted. The “worth at the time of award” of the amount referred to in clause (c) above is

32

computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago at the time of award, plus one percent. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 25(e) to the contrary, Tenant shall continue to pay the difference between the rental herein reserved over the then reasonable rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the stated term on a monthly basis until such time, if at all, that such amounts are in arrears for in excess of sixty (60) days, in which event Landlord shall have the right to accelerate such amounts in accordance with Section 25(e)(iii) hereof.

(f)                                   All covenants, terms and conditions to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be at its sole cost and expense and without any abatement of rental except as expressly provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Basic Rental, required to be paid by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder and such failure shall continue for thirty days after notice thereof by Landlord, and such failure results in an Event of Default, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated so to do, and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make any such payment or perform any such other act on Tenant’s part to be made or performed as in this Lease provided. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs shall be deemed additional rental hereunder and shall be payable to Landlord on demand, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the nonpayment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Basic Rental.

26.                               HOLDING OVER

It is hereby agreed that in the event of Tenant holding over after the termination of this Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, thereafter the tenancy shall be from month to month in the absence of a written agreement to the contrary, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly occupancy charge equal to (i) for the first sixty days of holdover, one hundred twenty-five percent of the monthly Basic Rental payable hereunder for the last lease year, and (ii) for any holdover beyond said sixty days, one hundred fifty percent of the monthly Basic Rental payable hereunder for the last lease year (plus all other charges payable by Tenant under this Lease) such occupancy charges to be payable from the expiration or termination of this Lease until the end of the calendar month in which the Premises are delivered to Landlord in the condition required herein. If Landlord shall enter into a new lease or amend an existing lease for premises in the Building for all or a portion of the Premises at the end of the Term, Landlord shall so notify Tenant and if Tenant fails to vacate and deliver all or such portion of the Premises to Landlord within sixty days after receipt of such notice (but in no event prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease), Tenant shall be responsible for any and all damages incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s failure to so vacate and deliver the Premises or such portion thereof (including the loss of such lease or amendment).

27.                               ENTIRE AGREEMENT

Neither Landlord nor Landlord’s agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the physical condition of the Building, the land upon which the Building is

33

erected, or the Premises, the rents, leases, expenses of operation or any other matter or thing affecting or related to the Premises except as herein expressly set forth and no rights, easements or licenses are acquired by Tenant by implication or otherwise, except as expressly set forth in the provisions of this Lease. This Lease shall constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto; all prior agreements between the parties, whether written or oral, are merged herein and shall be of no force or effect. This Lease cannot be changed, modified or discharged orally but only by an agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, modification or discharge is sought.

28.                               NOTICES

All notices, consents, requests, demands, designations or other communications which may or are required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when (i) personally delivered; or (ii) three days after being deposited in the United States mail, certified or registered, postage prepaid; or (iii) one business day after being deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier service; or (iv) sent by facsimile transmission or electronic mail to be immediately followed by delivery in accordance with the foregoing (i), (ii) or (iii), and in all instances addressed as follows: to Tenant at the address set forth in Section 1(m) hereof, or to such other place as Tenant may from time to time designate in a notice to Landlord; to Landlord at the address set forth in Section 1(n) hereof, or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in a notice to Tenant. Notice need be sent to only one Tenant or Landlord where Tenant or Landlord is more than one person.

29.                               SUCCESSORS

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective heirs, administrators, executors, representatives, successors and assigns.

30.                               TIME

Time is of the essence of this Lease and each and all of its provisions.

31.                               QUIET ENJOYMENT

Landlord warrants that Tenant, upon paying the rents hereinbefore provided and in performing each and every covenant hereof, shall peacefully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises throughout the term hereof, without molestation or hindrance by any person holding under or through Landlord.

32.                               BROKERS

Tenant acknowledges that no real estate broker is responsible for bringing about or negotiating this Lease other than Bedrock Management Services LLC (“Broker”) and

34

Tenant has not dealt with any broker in connection with this Lease and/or the Premises other than Broker. Landlord and Tenant agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other from any expense or liability arising out of a claim for commission or other compensation by any broker other than Broker claiming or alleging to have acted on behalf of or to have dealt with it in connection with this Lease or the Premises. Landlord shall pay the commission due Broker in accordance with Landlord’s separate agreement with Broker.

33.                               INABILITY TO PERFORM

(a)                                 If, by reason of the occurrence of unavoidable delays due to acts of God, governmental restrictions, strikes, labor disturbances, shortages of materials or supplies or for any other cause or event of a like nature not attributable to the negligence or fault of the Landlord, Landlord is unable to furnish or is delayed in furnishing any utility or service required to be furnished by Landlord under the provisions of this Lease, or is unable to perform or make or is delayed in performing or making any installations, decorations, repairs, alterations, additions or improvements required to be performed or made under this Lease, or is unable to fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Landlord’s other obligations under this Lease, then the performance of such work or act shall be excused for the period of the unavoidable delay and the period for the performance of any such work or act shall be extended for an equivalent period, and no such inability or delay shall constitute an actual or constructive eviction in whole or in part, or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of rental or other charges due hereunder or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease, or impose any liability upon Landlord or its agents by reason of inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant, or injury to or interruption of Tenant’s business, or otherwise.

(b)                                 If, by reason of the occurrence of unavoidable delays due to acts of God, governmental restrictions, strikes, labor disturbances, shortages of materials or supplies or for any other cause or event of a like nature not attributable to the negligence or fault of the Tenant, Tenant is delayed in performing work or doing any act required under the terms of this Lease or is unable to fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Tenant’s other obligations under this Lease, then the performance of such work or act shall be excused for the period of the unavoidable delay and the period for the performance of any such work or act shall be extended for an equivalent period, and no such inability or delay shall constitute a default, or entitle or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease, or impose any liability upon Tenant or its agents by reason of inconvenience or annoyance to Landlord.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 33 shall not operate to excuse either party from the prompt payment of the Rent or any other payments required by the terms of this Lease.

34.                               REMOVAL OF TENANT’S PROPERTY

“Tenant’s Property” as used herein shall mean all of Tenant’s movable fixtures and movable partitions, telephone and telecommunication wiring and cabling and related

35

equipment, computer systems, trade fixtures, furniture, furnishings, and other items of personal property located in the Premises. On or before the Expiration Date, any earlier date of termination of this Lease or the date that Tenant vacates from the Premises, whichever shall first occur, Tenant agrees to remove, at its sole cost and expense, all of Tenant’s Property (unless Landlord consents in writing to Tenant’s request to allow the Tenant’s Property or any portion thereof to remain in the Premises). Tenant shall restore and repair (which shall include, without limitation, repairing any holes in the walls or tears in the wallpaper and repainting or re-wallpapering such walls and closing-up any slab penetrations in the Premises, all in a good and workmanlike manner), or promptly reimburse Landlord for the cost of restoring and repairing (including, without limitation, repairing any such holes in the walls and tears in the wallpaper and repainting or re-wallpapering such walls and closing any such slab penetrations) any and all damage done to the Premises or the Building by the removal of Tenant’s Property or by the removal of leasehold improvements, alterations or other physical additions made by Tenant to the Premises which Landlord has directed or otherwise permitted Tenant to remove from the Premises. Tenant shall notify Landlord of its intention to affect the closing of any such slab penetrations at least thirty days prior to commencing such closings. If Tenant fails to remove any of Tenant’s Property by the Expiration Date or any sooner date of termination of the Lease or, if Tenant fails to remove any leasehold improvements, alterations or other physical additions made by Tenant to the Premises which Landlord has in writing directed Tenant to remove, Landlord shall have the right, on the fifth day after Landlord’s delivery of written notice to Tenant to deem such property abandoned by Tenant and to remove, store, sell, discard or otherwise deal with or dispose of such abandoned property in a commercially reasonable manner. Tenant shall be liable for all costs of such disposition of Tenant’s abandoned property and the repair and restoration of the Premises, and Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant in any respect regarding such property of Tenant. The provisions of this Section 34 shall survive the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease.

35.                               PARKING

(a)                                 During the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant three parking spaces for each one thousand square feet of rentable square feet in the Premises (the “QL Parking Spaces”). The QL Parking Spaces shall, as determined by Landlord, be in the following locations: (i) three hundred twenty will be located in the either “surface parking lot(s)”, “parking structure”, or “executive garage”, each as depicted on Schedule 35 attached hereto, and (ii) the balance of the parking spaces will be located in parking facilities mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant (“Parking Facilities”) (two hundred twenty nine parking spaces based upon the rentable square footage of Phase One and Phase Two as of the Date of Lease). The QL Parking Spaces located in the surface lot(s), parking structure and executive garage are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Building Parking Spaces.” Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall only be entitled to the number of QL Parking Spaces for the Premises which is actually occupied by Tenant from time to time. If the rentable square footage of the Premises is more or less than the rentable square footage contemplated as of the Date of Lease, Landlord shall determine the allocation of spaces between the Building Parking Spaces and the Parking Facilities.

36

(b)                            Commencing on the Commencement Date for each Phase, Tenant shall pay the following monthly rates for the QL Parking Spaces (“Parking Rent”):

(i)             Ninety Dollars per parking space per month for parking spaces located in the Surface parking lot(s);

(ii)          One Hundred Ten Dollars per parking space per month for parking spaces located in the parking garage;

(iii)       One Hundred Sixty Dollars per parking space per month for parking spaces located in the executive garage; and

(iv)      The balance of the QL Parking Spaces shall be at the then market rate charged for such parking spaces, which at the request of Landlord, shall be paid directly by Tenant to the owner/operator of the Parking Facilities.

(c)                             Parking Rent will be paid on the first day of each month following the applicable Commencement Date in advance without demand, deduction or setoff and shall otherwise be paid in the same manner and at the same time as Tenant pays Basic Rental.

(d)                            Landlord may not obligate itself to provide parking spaces to the remaining tenants in the Building which results in not providing Tenant with the Building Parking Spaces. Tenant will not permit the QL Parking Spaces to be used for transient parking. Tenant may, from time to time, reduce the number of QL Parking Spaces and if so reduced, may thereafter, from time to time, increase the number of QL Parking Spaces, in any event to no more than three parking spaces per 1,000 rentable square foot of the Premises.

(e)                             Landlord shall provide Tenant one parking access device and/or permit for each of the Building Parking Spaces requested by Tenant (collectively “QL Parking Permits”). Thirty days prior to the applicable Commencement Date, Tenant shall advise Landlord of the number of QL Parking Permits requested by Tenant as of the applicable Commencement Date. On or before the 1st day of each month, upon notice to Landlord, Tenant may decrease or increase (up to the maximum number of parking spaces permitted) the number of QL Parking Permits that Tenant will employ for the next subsequent month so as to provide Landlord with a minimum of one month’s notice.

(f)                              Monthly Parking Rent shall increase $5.00 for each Building Parking Space on each anniversary of the Phase One Commencement Date. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, at Landlord’s cost, for replacement (i.e. lost, stolen, damaged) QL Parking Permits.

(g)                             Landlord shall not be considered to be an insurer, guarantor, or bailee of the safety or security of any employee, or of any vehicle, or of the contents of any vehicle, parked in any of the QL Parking Spaces. Tenant acknowledges (and will so advise all of its

37

employees and affiliates that use the QL Parking Spaces) that all of its employees must self-park and un-park their vehicles, and abide by all provisions of the rules and regulations of the Parking Facilities that may be applicable to their use of the QL Parking Spaces. Landlord does not guard or assume care, custody, or control of the vehicle or its contents and is not responsible to Tenant or any employees or to any individuals or entities to whom QL Parking Permits are provided, for fire, theft, damage, or loss, including any damage caused by any other vehicle parked in the Parking Facilities of the Building, as applicable.

(h)                                 Tenant may not assign or sublet its rights to the use of the QL Parking Spaces and/or the QL Parking Permits, except in connection with an assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any portion of the Premises. Tenant’s rights to use the QL Parking Spaces are subject to the Landlord’s right to use of the Parking Facilities pursuant to such agreements which may be in place between Landlord and the owners and/or operators of the Parking Facilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Landlord’s right to use one or more of the Parking Facilities is terminated as a result of the sale of such Parking Facility(ies), then Tenant’s right to use such Parking Facility(ies) shall be similarly terminated; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall limit Landlord’s obligations to cause the QL Parking Spaces to be made available to Tenant and others permitted to use them pursuant to this Section 35. If the QL Parking Spaces become unavailable for any reason (including, without limitation, the sale of the Parking Facility(ies) in which the QL Parking Spaces are located), other than due to the acts or omissions of Tenant, Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to secure suitable replacement parking at comparable cost.

36.                               NO OPTION

The execution of this Lease by Tenant and the delivery of the same to Landlord shall not constitute a reservation of or option for the Premises or an agreement by Landlord to enter into a lease with Tenant and this Lease shall become effective only if and when Landlord’s executes and delivers the same to Tenant; provided, however, that the execution and delivery of this Lease by Tenant to Landlord shall constitute an irrevocable offer by Tenant to lease the Premises on the terms and conditions herein contained, which offer may not be withdrawn or revoked by Tenant for thirty days after execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord.

37.                               ANTENNA

(a)                                 Tenant has the right to install a satellite dish(es), electronic transmitter(s) devices for similar purposes and the like (collectively, the “Antenna”) on the roof of the Building and the right to install such Antenna on the other exterior surfaces of the Building in locations reasonably acceptable to Landlord to provide wireless services to the Premises, and to wire all such Antenna to the Premises in compliance with all applicable local zoning ordinances and regulations and in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Landlord and in a location approved by Landlord. In reviewing Tenant’s Antenna plans Landlord may reasonably consider, among other things, material interference of Tenant’s Antenna(s) with existing antenna and communication equipment

38

on the roof of the Building. The cost of installation and maintenance thereof, and the cost of any repairs to the roof which are necessitated by the installation, repair and/or removal of the Antenna(s) shall be borne solely by Tenant. Upon the termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove any Antenna(s) and repair any damage to the roof occasioned by such removal. Tenant shall also be permitted to run cable, fiber optic networks, and other systems and equipment throughout the Building in order to connect the various areas within the Building occupied from time to time by Tenant, and in order to connect such areas to outside telephone, cable, optical network and other providers in locations and pursuant to plans and specifications approved by Landlord. Further, Tenant shall be permitted to install throughout the Premises, access and security systems for Tenant’s exclusive use (e.g., swipe card, combination lock, security cameras or otherwise), subject to Landlord’s prior written approval thereof. In addition, Tenant agrees that if it has a security camera installed in the Premises, and such camera captures a recording of an alleged criminal incident, provided that Tenant has a tape of such incident, if Landlord requests such tape Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a copy of such tape.

(b)                                 Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all costs, loss, expense or liability of any kind whatsoever arising out of the installation, use and/or removal by Tenant of the Antenna. Tenant shall maintain a comprehensive general liability insurance policy, including contractual liability, as set forth in Section 20(b) hereof, so long as the Antenna is under construction, in place and/or being removed.

(c)                                  Tenant shall work exclusively with Landlord’s roofing contractor relating to the installation and/or removal of the Antenna and the roof penetration so as not to violate any requirements or invalidate Landlord’s roof guaranty.

(d)                                 Wherever Landlord’s approval is required pursuant to this Section 37, such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
