Request Notice. If at any time during the Lease Term Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Premises, in each case other than to an Affiliate or Permitted Transferee, then in connection with Tenant’s request to Landlord for Landlord’s consent thereto, Tenant shall give notice to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which Tenant desires such assignment or sublease to become effective (“Tenant’s Request Notice”) containing: the identity of the proposed assignee, subtenant or other party and a general description of its business and the proposed use of the Premises; the basic business and economic terms of the proposed assignment, subletting or other transaction; the commencement date of the proposed assignment or subletting (the “Proposed Sublease or Assignment Commencement Date”); a description of the premises proposed to be sublet (the “Proposed Sublet Space”); the most recent financial statement or other evidence of financial responsibility of such proposed assignee, or subtenant (subject to Landlord’s execution and delivery of a commercially reasonable non-disclosure agreement); and a certification executed by Tenant stating whether or not any premium or other consideration is being paid for the assignment, sublease or other transaction. No later than twenty-one (21) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Tenant’s Request Notice meeting the requirements set forth above, Landlord shall, in accordance with the terms of this Lease, provide Tenant written notice of its approval or disapproval of the proposed transaction.

Tenant shall have the right, during the term of this Lease, to assign its interest in this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Demised Premises, provided Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord, which notice shall be accompanied by an original fully executed copy of the proposed assignment or sublease, the effective date for commencement of which shall be not less than 30 days after the giving of such notice. Such notice shall state the identity of the proposed assignee or subtenant, the nature of its business, and shall be accompanied by reasonable current financial information with respect to the proposed assignee or subtenant as shall have been provided to Tenant and which shall be reasonably satisfactory to Landlord for the purposes of determining the credit worthiness of the proposed assignee or subtenant. Landlord shall have 30 days within which to approve the terms, covenants and conditions of such assignment or subletting from the date Tenant gives notice of its intent, which prior written approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No approval under this paragraph 7.01 or profit sharing under paragraph 7.02 shall be required if such assignment or subletting is # to an entity # controlled by # under common control with or # which controls Tenant, for so long as such control exists or # by reason of a merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant.

Permitted Transfers. If Tenant desires to assign, sublease, hypothecate or otherwise transfer this Lease or sublet the Premises, other than pursuant to a Permitted Assignment (as defined below), then at least 10 business days, but not more than 60 business days, before the date Tenant desires the assignment or sublease to be effective (the “Assignment Date”), Tenant shall give Landlord a notice (the “Assignment Notice”) containing such information about the proposed assignee or sublessee, including the proposed use of the Premises and any Hazardous Materials proposed to be used, stored handled, treated, generated in or released or disposed of from the Premises, the Assignment Date, any relationship between Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee, and all material terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, including a copy of any proposed assignment or sublease in its final form, and such other information as Landlord may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to its consideration whether to grant its consent. Landlord may, by giving written notice to Tenant within 10 business days after receipt of the Assignment Notice: # grant such consent (provided that Landlord shall further have the right to review and approve or disapprove, in its reasonable discretion, the proposed form of sublease prior to the effective date of any such subletting), # refuse such consent, in its reasonable discretion; or # terminate this Lease with respect to the space described in the Assignment Notice as of the Assignment Date (an “Assignment Termination”). Among other reasons, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent in any of these Instances: # the proposed assignee or subtenant is a governmental agency; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant would entail any alterations that would materially lessen the value of the leasehold improvements in the Premises, or would require increased services by Landlord; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the proposed assignee or subtenant is engaged in areas of scientific research or other business concerns at the Premises that are controversial such that they may # attract or cause negative publicity for or about the Building or the Project, # negatively affect the reputation of the Building, the Project or Landlord, # attract protestors to the Building or the Project, or # lessen the attractiveness of the Building or the Project to any tenants or prospective tenants, purchasers or lenders; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the proposed assignee or subtenant lacks the creditworthiness to support the financial obligations it will incur under the proposed assignment or sublease; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the character, reputation, or business of the proposed assignee or subtenant is inconsistent with the desired tenant-mix or the quality of other tenancies in the Project or is inconsistent with the type and quality of the nature of the Building; # Landlord has received from any prior landlord to the proposed assignee or subtenant a negative report concerning such prior landlord’s experience with the proposed assignee or subtenant’s failure to comply with its lease obligations; # Landlord has experienced previous defaults by or is in litigation with the proposed assignee or subtenant; # the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant will violate any applicable Legal Requirement; # the proposed assignee or subtenant, or any entity that, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the proposed assignee or subtenant, is then an occupant of the Project; (10) the proposed assignee or subtenant is an entity with whom Landlord is negotiating to lease space in the Project; or # the assignment or sublease is prohibited by Landlord’s lender. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to respond to each Assignment Notice within 10 business days after Landlord’s receipt of such Assignment Notice along with all documentation required to be delivered hereunder. If Landlord fails to respond within such 10 business day period, then Tenant shall provide Landlord with a second written notice stating in bold and all caps 12 point font or larger that Landlord’s failure to respond to Tenant’s Assignment Notice within 3 business days after Landlord’s receipt of the second notice shall be deemed approval by Landlord, and if Landlord does not respond within such 3 business day period, then Landlord shall be deemed to have approved such Assignment. If Landlord delivers notice of its election to exercise an Assignment Termination, Tenant shall have the right to withdraw such Assignment Notice by written notice to Landlord of such election within 5 business days after Landlord’s notice electing to exercise the Assignment Termination. If Tenant withdraws such Assignment Notice, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Tenant does not withdraw such Assignment Notice, this Lease, and the term and estate herein granted, shall terminate as of the Assignment Date with respect to the space described in such Assignment Notice. No failure of Landlord to exercise any such option to terminate this Lease, or to deliver a timely notice in response to the Assignment Notice, shall be deemed to be Landlord’s consent to the proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee equal to Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500) in connection with its consideration of any Assignment Notice and/or its preparation or review of any consent documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease or a subletting of any portion of the Premises to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Tenant (a “Control Permitted Assignment”) shall not be required, provided that Landlord shall have the right to reasonably approve the form of any such sublease or assignment. In addition, Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease, upon 30 days prior written notice to Landlord but without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, to a corporation or other entity which is a successor-in-interest to Tenant, by way of merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, or by the purchase of all or substantially all of the assets or the ownership interests of Tenant provided that # such merger or consolidation, or such acquisition or assumption, as the case may be, is for a good business purpose and not principally for the purpose of transferring the Lease, and # the net worth (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) of the assignee is not less than the greater of the net worth (as determined in accordance with GAAP) of Tenant as of # the Commencement Date, or # as of the date of Tenant’s most current quarterly or annual financial statements, and # such assignee shall agree in writing to assume all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease (a “Corporate Permitted Assignment”). Control Permitted Assignments and Corporate Permitted Assignments are hereinafter referred to as “Permitted Assignments.”

Permitted Transfers. If Tenant desires to assign, sublease, hypothecate or otherwise transfer this Lease or sublet the Premises other than pursuant to a Permitted Assignment (as defined below), then at least 15 business days, but not more than 45 business days, before the date Tenant desires the assignment or sublease to be effective (the “Assignment Date”), Tenant shall give Landlord a notice (the “Assignment Notice”) containing such information about the proposed assignee or sublessee, including the proposed use of the Premises and any Hazardous Materials proposed to be used, stored handled, treated, generated in or released or disposed of from the Premises, the Assignment Date, any relationship between Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee, and all material terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, including a copy of any proposed assignment or sublease in its final form, and such other information as Landlord may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to its consideration whether to grant its consent. Landlord may, by giving written notice to Tenant within 15 business days after receipt of the Assignment Notice: # grant such consent, # refuse such consent, in its reasonable discretion; or # with respect to an assignment of the Lease or sublease of substantially all of the Premises, terminate this Lease as of the Assignment Date (an “Assignment Termination”). Among other reasons, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent in any of these instances: # the proposed assignee or subtenant is a governmental agency; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant would entail any alterations that would lessen the value of the leasehold improvements in the Premises, or would require increased services by Landlord; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the proposed assignee or subtenant is engaged in areas of scientific research or other business concerns that are, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, controversial; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the proposed assignee or subtenant lacks the creditworthiness to support the financial obligations it will incur under the proposed assignment or sublease; # in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the character, reputation, or business of the proposed assignee or subtenant is inconsistent with the desired tenant-mix or the quality of other tenancies in the Project or is inconsistent with the type and quality of the nature of the Building; # Landlord has received from any prior landlord to the proposed assignee or subtenant a negative report concerning such prior landlord’s experience with the proposed assignee or subtenant; # Landlord has experienced previous defaults by or is in litigation with the proposed assignee or subtenant; # the use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant will violate any applicable Legal Requirement; # the proposed assignee or subtenant is an entity from whom Landlord has received or to whom Landlord has delivered a letter of intent; or (10) the assignment or sublease is prohibited by Landlord’s lender. If Landlord delivers notice of its election to exercise an Assignment Termination, Tenant shall have the right to withdraw such Assignment Notice by written notice to Landlord of such election within 5 business days after Landlord’s notice electing to exercise the Assignment Termination. If Tenant withdraws such Assignment Notice, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Tenant does not withdraw such Assignment Notice, this Lease, and the term and estate herein granted, shall terminate as of the Assignment Date. No failure of Landlord to exercise any such option to terminate this Lease, or to deliver a timely notice in response to the Assignment Notice, shall be deemed to be Landlord’s consent to the proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee equal to One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) in connection with its consideration of any Assignment Notice and/or its preparation or review of any consent documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease or a subletting of any portion of the Premises to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Tenant (a “Control Permitted Assignment”) shall not be required, provided that Landlord shall have the right to approve the form of any such sublease or assignment (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In addition, Tenant shall have the right to assign this Lease, upon 30 days prior written notice to Landlord but without obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, to a corporation or other entity which is a successor-in-interest to Tenant (or, if applicable, the resulting Tenant), by way of merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, or by the purchase of all or substantially all of the assets or the ownership interests of Tenant provided that # such merger or consolidation, or such acquisition or assumption, as the case may be, is for a good business purpose and not principally for the purpose of transferring the Lease, and # the net worth (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) of the assignee (or, if applicable, the resulting Tenant) is not less than the net worth (as determined in accordance with GAAP) of Tenant as of the date of Tenant’s most current quarterly or annual financial statements, and # if the resulting assignee is an entity other than Tenant, such assignee shall agree in writing to assume all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease arising after the effective date of the assignment (a “Corporate Permitted Assignment”). Control Permitted Assignments and Corporate Permitted Assignments are hereinafter referred to as “Permitted Assignments.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall have no right to deliver an Assignment Termination as a result of a Permitted Assignment or any notice of a Permitted Assignment from Tenant.

If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to a specific assignment or subletting (as opposed to giving a mere Tenant’s Recapture Offer), it shall submit in writing to Landlord # the name and address of the proposed assignee or sublessee, # a duly executed counterpart of the proposed agreement of assignment or sublease, # reasonably satisfactory information as to the nature and character of the business of the proposed assignee or sublessee and as to the nature of its proposed use of the space, and # banking, financial or other credit information relating to the proposed assignee or sublessee reasonably sufficient to enable Landlord to determine the financial responsibility and character of the proposed assignee or sublessee. Landlord shall have a period of thirty (30) days from the date Tenant submits all of the required documents set forth above in the first (1st) sentence of this [Section 7.06] to either grant or withhold its consent to any proposed assignment or sublease pursuant to the terms of this Article 7. If

Landlord fails to respond within such 30-day period, then Tenant shall have the right to deliver a second notice to Landlord requesting Landlord’s consent to such assignment or sublet, which request shall state in bold upper case letters at the top of the first page in which any such request is sent as follows: “THIS IS A TIME SENSITIVE NOTICE AND SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7.06 OF THE LEASE, LANDLORD SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE APPROVED TENANT’S ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLET REQUEST.” If Tenant shall have delivered such reminder notice to Landlord, and Landlord shall fail to respond to such reminder notice within five (5) Business Days after Landlord’s receipt of such reminder notice, then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment or sublet (but subject to the other applicable provisions of this Article 7). In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, prior to submission to Landlord of an executed counterpart of the proposed agreement of assignment or sublease, to submit to Landlord the information required pursuant to [clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) above] and following receipt of such information, Landlord shall advise Tenant if the proposed assignee or subtenant is acceptable to Landlord for purposes hereof (it being agreed that such approval shall be for informational purposes only and shall not be or be deemed to be Landlord’s formal approval to such assignment or sublease (which formal approval shall be granted or withheld in accordance with the other provisions of this [Section 7.06])).

Any consent of Landlord under this Article shall be subject to the terms of this Article and conditioned upon there being no monetary or material nonmonetary default by Tenant, beyond any grace period, under any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease at the time that Landlord’s consent to any such subletting or assignment is requested. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that no assignment or subletting shall be effective unless and until Tenant, upon receiving any necessary Landlord’s written consent (and unless it was theretofore delivered to Landlord) causes a duly executed copy of the sublease or assignment to be delivered to Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after execution thereof. Any such sublease shall provide that it is subject to this Lease and shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord. Any such assignment of this Lease shall contain an assumption by the assignee of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant arising from and after the effective date of such assignment; provided, however, with respect to any assignment to a Related Entity or to a No-Consent Change Entity, such assumption by the assignee shall be of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant arising from and after the Commencement Date.
