Locust, Suite 500 Denton, TX 76201 Re: Wells Fargo's "Living Will" & Lease Agreement (as amended, if amended) between Landlord and Wells Fargo for 101 S LOCUST ST. Denton, TX (collectively, the "Lease") - BE#101374 Parking Dear Landlord: As you may be aware, all large-fiinancial services companies, including Wells Fargo, are required by federal law to file a resolution plan (sometimes called a "living will") with federal regulators to ensure the orderly resolution of the company's assets in case of material financial distress or failure. In general, federal law already provides federal regulators the means to resolve a financial company's as- sets in case of insolvency. For example, applicable law grants the FDIC the right to enforce a lease against a landlord even if the lease includes remedies for tenant insolvency. Even so, the federal guidance document for financial institution resolution plans provides that financial services companies must update leases to incorporate terms and conditions to prevent the automatic termination of a lease In case of tenant insolvency. Therefore, we crafted applicable resolution event terms to include in the Lease. These terms are set forth in EAhUttAA attached to this letter. In general, the resolution event terms restate existing law. Neverthe- less, federal regulators require that we include resolution event terms in all our leases regardless. Therefore, to comply with the governmental requirement to update our leases, please sign this letter be- low indicating your agreement to amend the Lease to include the Resolution & Recovery terms set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and return the signed letter withinfive business days to the address set forth in ........ the upper right hand corner of this letter. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please email LeaseRRP@Wells Fargo,com. Very truly yours, Accepted & Agr .ed this �'' Y of /"N 2017 Landlor • ,u %..,. By: Cynthia J.

EXHIBIT A Resolution & Recovery 1. Tenant, as a highly regulated entity, is subject to countless laws, rules, and regulations, as well as oversight by various governmental agencies, In connection with Tenant's financial operations at the Premises. As determined by these various governmental agencies, Tenant's ability to occupy the Prem- ises for the Permitted Use, notwithstanding the occurrence of (1) a proceeding under any bankruptcy, debtor relief, resolution, or Insolvency law (including a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, a proceeding under the Securities Investor Protection Act, or the appointment of a receiver or conservator under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act or Title II of the Dodd -Frank Wall street Reform and Consumer Protection Act), (11) any equivalent proceeding under any other U.S, or foreign law, or (iii) other similar proceeding or event (any such proceeding or event, a "I es slytio gVgW), is important to preserve the stability of do- mestic financial markets. 2.

Moreover, Landlord hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that If Tenant is sub- ject to a Resolution Event and Tenant, pursuant to the law applicable to such Resolution Event, rejects, disclaims, or repudiates this Lease, or falls or refuses to perform its obligations under this Lease, this Lease shall nevertheless remain In full force and effect as between any Affiliate of Tenant that is a party to or beneficiary of this Lease (e.g., a subtenant, Itcensee, or other occupant of the Premises) and Landlord shall not exercise any right to terminate this Lease or otherwise exercise any right or remedy under this Lease with respect to any such Affiliate to the extent that such right arose or arises from such action so long as such Affiliate continues to perform its own obligations or the obligations assumed by it under this Lease. 5.
