The monthly rent freely agreed between the parties is R$814,790.40 (eight hundred and fourteen thousand seven hundred and ninety Reais and forty cents) to be adjusted every twelve (12) months from the month when this agreement comes into force, October 2015, subject to free negotiation and mutual agreement between the Parties, based on the IGPM/FGV, the General Market Prices Index calculated and published by the Getúlio Vargas Foundation.

Paragraph One: in the event that the government reduces the period of adjustment of this index, as permitted by article 28, paragraph 5, of Law 9.069 of June 29, 1995, or if Law 8.245/91 shall take precedence, the rents payable under this agreement shall be adjusted as frequently as the law shall then permit.

This new index shall be defined by mutual agreement between the PARTIES by means of an amendment hereto.

Paragraph Three: the new rent shall be calculated by the LESSOR and communicated to the LESSEE which shall have fifteen (15) days in which to indicate any error.

3.3. Any delay by the LESSOR in collecting the rent or acknowledging the payment and other charges after the due date determined in this AGREEMENT shall be mere liberality on the former’s part and shall not be justification for the LESSEE to invoke novation of any element of the lease.

6.1. The LESSEE undertakes to arrange comprehensive insurance for the PROPERTY, with coverage for fire, gales, hail, electrical damage, vehicle impact, falling aircraft, loss of rent due to accidents, and third party liability, for an insured amount in line with the current value of the PROPERTY, with a suitable, well-known insurance company of its choice. The beneficiary shall be the LESSOR, and the PROPERTY must be insured until the end of the lease period, failing which the LESSEE shall be liable for all damage to the property, even if due to accident or force majeure.

6.2. If the PROPERTY is included in the LESSEE’s insurance policy, which shall be at the discretion of the LESSEE, the LESSOR shall receive an endorsement with a beneficiary section in its favor, issued by the insurer, confirming that any damage to the PROPERTY shall be indemnified as long as it is covered by the policy.

6.3. Before arranging the insurance, the LESSEE undertakes to give the LESSOR a copy of the proposal for it to evaluate the amounts and the items covered from a market and technical viewpoint. If the LESSOR does not agree with the amounts and/or items, it must inform the LESSEE within five (5) days of receipt of the copy of the proposal, giving reasons for its disagreement, so that the LESSEE can make the necessary changes.

6.4. The policy must be issued by a suitable insurer chosen by the LESSEE, and must provide at least the same coverage as the current policy arranged by the LESSOR.

6.5. Insured amounts must be adjusted at each renewal date, and the LESSEE must give the LESSOR the policy and receipts for premiums within thirty (30) days of the expiry of the previous policy, otherwise the LESSOR may arrange insurance and collect the premium from the LESSEE, together with the next payment of rent.

6.6. The LESSOR shall not be liable to the LESSEE in the event of fire, even if caused by a short circuit or damage or defects in the electrical installations.

6.7. If the LESSEE opts to reimburse the LESSOR for insurance arranged by the latter, it shall pay the premium for the entire area together with the rent and other charges on the leased property, even if payment is made by means of a bank payment form, and it is hereby agree that coverage shall remain in force until the property is returned to the LESSOR.

6.8. Insurance arranged by the LESSOR shall not cover the belongings of the LESSEE, which the latter must insure, if it so wishes, at its own expense.

6.10. In the event of damage caused by FIRE, LIGHTNING, VEHICLE IMPACT, FALLING AIRCRAFT, EXPLOSION or GALES, the LESSEE shall be exempted by the “Loss of Rent” clause from payment of rent during the period of reconstruction of the warehouse, under the policy arranged by the LESSOR.

6.11. In the event of partial loss, the LESSEE may remain in the unaffected part of the LEASED AREA, at its sole discretion. In this case, and only if the damage which occurred was the fault of the LESSEE, payment of rent for the area destroyed shall be suspended until repairs are completed, provided that the insurer covers the loss of rent in proportion to the area damaged. If the LESSEE continues to occupy the unaffected part of the LEASED AREA, it shall continue to be liable for payment of rent on this unaffected part. If the damage was not the fault of the LESSEE, this agreement shall be extended for the time required to rebuild the LEASED AREA.

6.12. The LESSEE is aware of all the coverage and conditions of the insurance currently in force for the property, and of the limitations on cover under the policy that may result in indemnity being refused, and may be held liable for any costs arising from non-compliance with the terms of the policy.

6.13. Without prejudice to the provisions of the preceding sections, and in addition to any contractual penalties under this agreement, if the LESSEE fails to pay the premium (or its installments, as the case may be) or fails to take any action and thus causes insurance coverage to be voided, it shall be responsible to the LESSOR for the complete repair of any damage to the property, including that resulting from accident or force majeure.

7. INSPECTION AND STATE OF THE LEASED AREA

7.1. The LESSEE hereby receives and issues a written receipt for a copy of the Manual for Use and Maintenance of the property leased, provided by the LESSOR in printed form and on digital media (CD/DVD), which shall form an integral part of this AGREEMENT.

Sole paragraph: The LESSEE shall observe all the recommendations, requirements and obligations detailed in the Manual, failing which it shall be subject to the penalties outlined herein.

7.2. As indicated in the Initial Inspection Report (Exhibit III) prepared by the LESSOR jointly with the LESSEE, the leased area is handed over in perfect working order, especially in respect of the hydraulic and electrical systems, the paintwork and other components, and shall be returned in the same condition when this AGREEMENT is terminated or expires, other than normal wear and tear, and any damage to the LEASED AREA shall be repaired by the LESSEE and its guarantors and co-obligors hereunder, if any.

8. ENVIRONMENT

8.1. The LESSOR shall deliver to the LESSEE, on or before October 5, 2015, an Environmental Report on the property prepared by Arcadis Logos, which specializes in ascertaining environmental conditions of properties, at the expense of the LESSOR. This report indicates that the basement of the PROPERTY has suffered environmental damage in the past, caused by a neighboring company, which is now at an advanced stage of remediation. The environmental liability is not harmful to human health. Once a year, the LESSOR must forward to the LESSEE an up-to-date report on the remediation process and the measurement level of the contamination. It is the sole responsibility of the company that caused said environmental damage to continue the remediation work, at its own expense, in accordance with the applicable environmental statutes and the requirements and parameters imposed by the competent authorities, such that the activities of the LESSEE in the PROPERTY are not affected.

Paragraph One: If the annual report referred to above shows contamination harmful to human health or restricts the activities of the LESSEE, the LESSOR shall submit to the LESSEE, together with the report, the remediation plan prepared by Arcadis Logos. The LESSEE, within seven (7) days of receipt of these documents, may opt (i) to approve the remediation plan; or (ii) to terminate the AGREEMENT, without incurring any costs or fines.

Paragraph Two: If the remediation plan is approved by the LESSEE, the LESSOR shall, within not more than thirty (30) days, obtain quotes for the execution of the plan, engage a contractor and submit a timetable, to be agreed by mutual agreement between the Parties. In such case, the remediation plan shall be executed by the LESSOR, at its own expense, and completed by February 29, 2016. If the LESSEE identifies errors, shortcomings or delays in meeting the timetable or executing the remediation plan, it may, at any time before completion of the plan, terminate the AGREEMENT without incurring any costs or fines. It shall give the LESSOR at least five (5) days advance notice of such termination, pursuant to Section 19.9 below.

Paragraph Three: If the LESSEE needs more than seven (7) days to analyze the remediation plan proposed by the LESSOR, the above deadline for completing the remediation (29/02/2016) shall be extended by the number of additional days needed. Lastly, if the remediation is not completed by the LESSOR by February 29, 2016, it must complete it as quickly as possible thereafter so as not to affect the activities of the LESSEE, and it shall extend the rent-free period for the area affected, in accordance with Section 3.6, by the number of days needed to finish the work.

8.2. The LESSEE undertakes to do whatever is necessary to avoid environmental damage to the LEASED AREA resulting from its activities, in particular, but not only, to the buildings, the soil, air, water, drainage systems etc., and to strictly observe all the legal requirements imposed by its type of activity; and accordingly, at its own expense, to obtain the necessary certificates from the regulatory authorities.

Sole paragraph: If the LESSOR is sued, in court or out of court, by any authority for any acts or omissions arising from non-compliance with the laws governing the business of the LESSEE, it shall formally notify the latter and the latter shall immediately and in full assume responsibility for such acts or omissions. Failing such assumption, the LESSOR is hereby assured of the right of recourse against the LESSEE, for the full repair of damage proven to have been caused by the latter.

8.3. The LESSEE is obliged to meet all the requirements of the public authorities in relation to its business activities, and such requirements shall not be justification for abandoning the LEASED AREA or terminating the AGREEMENT.

8.4. When this AGREEMENT ends, the parties may by mutual agreement appoint a specialist firm from the market to ascertain the environmental condition of the LEASED AREA by inspecting it and submitting a report to the LESSOR, with the cost being borne by both PARTIES.

8.5. If the LEASED AREA is found to be contaminated solely by the activities of the LESSEE, the latter shall reimburse the LESSOR for its share of the costs of the report and shall be responsible for restoring the environmental condition of the area to levels not prejudicial to man, as required by the environmental authorities. If the contamination causes the environmental authorities to order the PROPERTY to be closed until it is safe, the LESSEE shall continua to pay the rent during the period of decontamination.

Sole paragraph: If the contamination is found not to have been caused by the LESSEE, but by other individuals or legal entities unrelated to the LESSEE, such as the owners or occupants of neighboring properties, the LESSOR shall take the appropriate administrative or judicial measures against them to resolve and fully restore the proven environmental damage, and the LESSEE shall make every effort to cooperate with the LESSOR in these proceedings, in order to repair the damage caused to the LESSOR and the PROPERTY. If the LESSEE has suffered damage, it shall take the appropriate administrative or judicial measures against the party responsible, at its own expense, and the LESSOR shall make every effort to cooperate with the LESSEE in these proceedings.

9. REPAIRS AND UPKEEP OF THE PROPERTY

9.1. All the work for the upkeep of the LEASED AREA, such as mending taps, replacing sanitary appliances, watering and cutting grass and trimming trees, maintaining slopes, fences, installations in general, and repairing any damage caused to the inside or the outside of the LEASED AREA, must be done by LESSEE as promptly as possible, at its own expense, and using material of the same quality as before.

Sole paragraph: If the LESSEE, having been given a deadline of thirty (30) days by the LESSOR to carry out some necessary work, fails to do so, the LESSOR is hereby empowered to do it and to collect the money spent, together with the monthly rent, in addition to a fine for breach of contract.

9.2. Any abnormality that may appear in the LEASED AREA related to soundness of construction, in its structures or component parts, must be immediately reported to the LESSOR.

Paragraph One: In the circumstances described in the main section of this Section (9.2), the LESSOR undertakes to make the necessary repairs immediately, for its own account, and the LESSEE, in turn, is obliged to permit access by engineers, workers and the material necessary for repairing the faults.

Paragraph Two: The LESSOR is responsible for work involving the structural safety of the LEASED AREA, except for damage caused by the LESSEE, and for work intended to make it habitable again, as well as any necessary structural work, and it should complete such work as quickly as possible. In urgent cases of imminent danger the work must be done immediately, and in other cases the LESSOR must have taken preliminary steps to mitigate risks within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a formal request from the LESSEE; failing which the LESSEE is authorized to do the work, and having technically justified the urgency and imminent risk and received the approval of the LESSOR, to deduct the costs from future rent payments.

9.3. If an inspection shows the LEASED AREA threatening to collapse, the LESSEE may, at is discretion, terminate the lease and return the PROPERTY to the LESSOR, with no costs for either party. If on the other hand the LESSEE decides to continue with the lease, it shall vacate the area affected and the LESSOR shall make repairs to the PROPERTY in the shortest time technically possible. If the threat of collapse is due to action by the LESSEE and the LESSEE wishes to continue with the lease, it shall be responsible for repairing the PROPERTY, and the LESSOR shall provide all the assistance possible.

Paragraph One: Termination of the agreement in the circumstances described in the main section hereof (9.3) shall not exempt the LESSEE from full payment of any outstanding liabilities, which shall be enforceable under this instrument, together with any additional charges such as fines, arrears interest and monetary adjustment, after offsetting any amounts already paid by the LESSEE.

Paragraph Two: If the LESSEE decides to continue with the lease, during the period necessary for repairing the PROPERTY it shall not be required to pay rent or charges for the area affected.

9.4. The LESSEE shall assume the upkeep and maintenance of the entire PROPERTY, and hereby agrees that it will need to engage a specialist firm to maintain the firefighting equipment, in particular the sprinkler system, which consists of two diesel-powered pumping stations and various taps and valves that require permanent maintenance. The LESSEE undertakes to submit a report to the LESSOR every six months demonstrating that this system is working properly.

10. IMPROVEMENTS IN THE LEASED AREA

10.1. Except as otherwise agreed upon in writing, the LESSEE may not have any such construction or renovation done in the LEASED AREA as may involve any change in its structure or infrastructure, including, in particular, but not limited to, the construction of mezzanines, restrooms, exterior coverings, awnings and tarpaulin structures (“vinyl sheds”), which is why any failure to comply with this obligation shall characterize material breach of contract liable to termination of the agreement, without prejudice to the imposition of any of the contractual penalties agreed upon herein or any indemnification actions applicable to the case being filed with any court.

Sole paragraph. The LESSOR agrees with any changes needed to renovate and/or adapt the kitchen and cafeteria for use by the LESSEE, to the extent that the LESSEE does so at its own expense, in a location chosen by mutual agreement, and to the extent that no such work leads to an increase in the property’s built-up area.

10.2. Except as otherwise expressly agreed upon, any useful improvements or amenities, even if authorized by the LESSOR, shall not be liable to any indemnification, compensation or withholding, as it shall have been finally incorporated into the leased property.

Sole paragraph. Any amenities, in particular, but not limited to, the construction of mezzanines, partitions and walls, among other ways of dividing areas, shall be fully removed, at the LESSEE’s expense, upon expiration or termination of this agreement, and the LESSEE agrees in any way to restore the LEASED AREA to the exact previous state of repair, in accordance with the aforementioned Initial Inspection Report.

11. FIREFIGHTING DESIGN AND EQUIPMENT

11.1. The PROPERTY has a firefighting design for unspecified-use sheds which is being renewed by the Fire Department of the São Paulo State Military Policy (Exhibit IV), a copy of which shall be delivered to the LESSEE upon approval.

Sole paragraph. The LESSOR and the LESSEE agree that the renewal in progress will be finished by LESSOR, through its technical consulting service, with the SJC Fire Department. The LESSOR shall provide all compliance reports on the systems on an “as is” basis, with ARTs prepared, and shall pay the inspection fees. The LESSEE shall be solely liable for all other particular adaptations for use or even customization processes required for meeting the LESSEE’s specific layout requirements, including the costs of setting up a fire brigade.

11.2. The LESSEE shall take care of the conservation of firefighting equipment and agrees, upon expiration or termination hereof, to deliver it in the same condition as received, regular wear and tear excepted. All expenses incurred in connection with successive AVCB renewals shall be borne by the LESSEE, except for the first one currently in progress, for which the LESSOR is liable.

11.3. In the event that the equipment is insufficient to meet the Fire Department’s requirements in view of the purposes of the company and any construction work carried out by the LESSEE, the costs related to the new firefighting design, new equipment and new inspection shall be borne by the LESSEE, and such equipment, for being fixed, shall be incorporated into the PROPERTY, at no cost to the LESSOR.

11.4. Without prejudice to the foregoing provisions, the LESSEE is required to comply with the security systems proposal put forward by the Fire Department as regards safety signage against fire and panic, as well as the fire brigade.

11.7. In the event that the LESSEE fails to meet any of the Fire Department’s requirements, and because these are about the safety of the PROPERTY, the LESSOR may, upon giving notice to the LESSEE, hire a company directly to perform the services required by the Fire Department, and the LESSEE shall reimburse LESSOR for the total cost thereof.

11.8. The LESSEE is not allowed to build any mezzanines within the LEASED AREA and shall observe the Fire Department’s firefighting design.

12. EFFECTIVENESS OF THE AGREEMENT PROVISION AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL IN CASE OF SALE

12.1.

12.2. Other than in the event provided for in the preceding section, should the LESSOR intend to sell the PROPERTY or any part thereof by means of any sale method provided for in the law, such as, for example, sale, promise to sale, exchange, payment in kind, assignment of or promise to assign any rights concerning the PROPERTY’s domain, then the LESSEE shall be entitled to exercise its right of first refusal to make such purchase, on the same terms as those offered to third parties, and the LESSOR shall advise the LESSEE of its intended transaction by extrajudicial notice or by any other means the receipt of which is unequivocal. Such notice shall specify at least (i) the price to be paid for the Property or any part thereof; (ii) payment dates and method, (iii) guarantees to be provided, if any, (iv) any encumbrances and constraints, (v) other terms of the proposed sale or transfer, and (vii) information on the place and time for access to the relevant documentation.

12.3. The LESSEE’s exercise of its right of first refusal shall be stated in writing, in an unequivocal and irreversible manner within a non-extendable period of no more than thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the LESSOR’s notice, all in compliance with articles 27 et seqq. of the Lease Law.

12.4. Upon the LESSEE’s exercise of its right of first refusal, both Parties shall engage in negotiations to exchange supplementary information, documents and certificates, so that the transfer is executed within a period of sixty (60) days of the LESSEE’s exercise of the right of first refusal.

12.5. If such right of first refusal is not exercised or is otherwise exercised insufficiently and not in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement or the relevant laws applicable to the case, then the LESSOR shall be free and cleared to make the sale of said asset to third parties within a period of sixty (60) days, without such action characterizing any breach of contract hereunder. If, upon lapse of said sixty (60) days’ period, the LESSOR has not sold the Property or part thereof but still intends to sell it or the terms and conditions set forth in the notice of right of first refusal sent to the LESSEE have been changed in any way relative to those initially provided, then the LESSOR shall reinitiate the procedures for granting the right of first refusal set forth hereinabove.

12.6. The parties hereby mutually agree that the provision concerning the effectiveness of the AGREEMENT set forth in article 8 of the Lease Law, wherefore if the PROPERTY is sold or otherwise any rights to the PROPERTY or any part thereof are transferred to a third party, then such third party shall be required to observe the periods and terms agreed upon in this AGREEMENT with the LESSEE until the expiration of its term. In any such instrument as it may sign with the purchaser, the LESSOR shall include such purchaser’s obligation to fully comply with the lease provisions hereof.

12.7. The LESSEE shall, at its own expense, for the purposes of articles 8 and 33 of the Lease Law, register this Agreement with the Real Estate Registry in and for the relevant real estate district.

12.8. Should the LESSEE be unable to enter this agreement in the registration of the Property due to any facts or unresolved issues attributable to the LESSOR, then the LESSOR shall be liable for any losses and damages caused to the LESSEE if this lease is interrupted as a result of any sale of the Property to third parties.

13. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE

13.1. Subject to the provisions of paragraph two below, to the extent that it has a previous written consent signed by the LESSOR, the LESSEE may assign, lend or sublease the Leased Area or any

part thereof to third parties. Subject to such assumption, the LESSEE may also engage, through third parties acting as assignees, free lessees or sublessees, in any such activities as may be needed to fulfill its corporate purpose, provided that no such activity shall deviate from the purpose of this lease.

Paragraph one. The LESSEE agrees to provide to the LESSOR in advance a complete description of the sublessee, assignee or free lessee.

Paragraph two. The LESSEE may sublease and give under free lease the Leased Area or any part thereof and/or assign (for consideration or free of charge) the Agreement to other companies forming part of the same business group as LESSEE’s or otherwise the same business group as does Tarpon Investimentos S.A. (“Tarpon”), such business group consisting of affiliates, subsidiaries, controlling companies, related companies and investees, among others, related to the LESSEE or Tarpon, with the LESSOR’s consent, but the LESSEE agrees that it shall give to the LESSOR express notice thereof no less than ten (10) days prior to the event, and the LESSOR shall give its consent within three (3) days of said notice, which consent shall not be unreasonably denied.

13.3. In the event of termination of the AGREEMENT, whatever the reason, any assignment or sublease set forth in the foregoing sections shall automatically cease by operation of law, whereby the LESSEE agrees to have this condition expressly reflected in any such assignment or sublease agreement as it may sign.

Sole paragraph. The foregoing sections shall not apply in the event of merger, consolidation or spin-off involving any companies related to the LESSEE, nor shall they apply to cases where such legal successors have the same use of the LEASED AREA, in which case this AGREEMENT shall be maintained in the name of the succeeding company, which shall agree to provide written notice of such change and send the relevant documentation to the LESSOR. Should any legal successor(s) to the LESSEE fail to maintain the intended use of the LEASED PROPERTY as set forth in this AGREEMENT, then the LESSOR shall be entitled to opt to either maintain or not maintain this lease agreement.

14. RETURN OF LEASED AREA

14.1. For the purposes of returning the Leased Area, the LESSEE shall give to the LESSOR sixty (60) days’ written notice thereof, so that the LESSOR may check and inspect the LEASED AREA, which it shall in every event do based on the Initial Inspection Report and may be accompanied by a technician designated by the LESSEE, whereupon the LESSOR shall issue the relevant Previous Exit Report indicating any such repairs as may be needed in the Leased Area within twenty (20) days of the expected date of return of the keys.

14.2. In the event that any damages are found in any part of the LEASED AREA that do not demonstrably result from regular wear and tear, in particular, but not limited to, fissures or cracks on any walls, ceilings or doors, leaks or electrical damages arising from misuse by the LESSEE or its representatives, the LESSOR shall notify the LESSEE to have the appropriate repairs done, within the period set forth in the preceding section, under penalty of a fine for breach of contract as set forth in this AGREEMENT.

14.3. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the LESSOR’s receipt of the keys shall not be deemed as settlement of any debts or any other obligations hereunder not met by the LESSEE, which shall be payable upon the taking of the appropriate legal actions.

Sole paragraph. Without prejudice to the provisions of the main section hereof, should the keys be received on a conditional basis or if the LESSEE is found liable for any damages caused to the LEASED AREA, the LESSEE shall pay the rents and other lease charges for the time required to restore the LEASED AREA to perfect order.

15. FINE FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT

15.1. A party in breach of any section of this AGREEMENT shall be notified by the aggrieved party as set forth in this AGREEMENT so that it causes, within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the aforementioned notice, if no other period is expressly agreed upon, the relevant obligation to be fully met, under penalty of being deemed in default. The breaching party shall be deemed notified upon the aggrieved party’s submission of proof of delivery of the notice set forth in this Section at the address set forth in the preamble hereto as indicated in Section 19.9 below.

15.2. Upon default being ascertained as set forth in the aforementioned section, if no penalty is specifically established for the relevant breach committed, then the breaching party shall be liable for a fine previously agreed at one (1) rent, as in effect at the time of the breach, irrespective of any formality, which shall be increased by default interest hereby set at one percent (1%) per month and adjusted for inflation based on the General Market Price Index published by Getúlio Vargas Foundation (IGP-M/FGV) until the time of actual payment.

15.3. The payment of the default fine set forth in the preceding section shall not release the breaching party from complying with any other obligations resulting from this AGREEMENT, it being agreed that said penalty shall be payable as many times as any beaches of any provisions or conditions of this AGREEMENT are committed.

15.4. If the default is not purged within the period then agreed upon, such fact shall be deemed a material breach of contract, which is subject to termination hereof.

15.5. None of the PARTIES shall be subject to the foregoing fine if the termination of this AGREEMENT is caused by an act of God or event of force majeure, except in the events expressly agreed upon herein.

16. GUARANTEE—SURETYSHIP

16.1. Also signing this AGREEMENT as SURETY, jointly and severally liable with LESSEE for all obligations assumed herein, is the company SOMOS EDUCAÇÃO S.A.

16.2. The SURETY represents that: a) it waives the right it is given by articles 827, 828 and 839 of the Civil Code; and b) in execution procedures, it is not entitled to the benefit of discussion under said legal provisions due to the joint and several liability it has assumed.

16.3. The SURETY’s aforementioned liabilities shall extend to all such expenses and charges as may be attributed to the LESSEE under this AGREEMENT or due to any termination hereof.

16.4. In the event that the SURETY is decreed insolvent or bankrupt by any court, the LESSEE agrees to designate another surety within a period of no more than thirty (30) days, such designation to be reviewed by the LESSOR, which shall not unreasonably reject it.

17. TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT

17.1. In any event of termination hereof, such termination will be made by judicial or extrajudicial notice, and LESSOR shall, in any event of termination due to the LESSEE’s default, take the appropriate legal actions to repossess the Leased Area.

17.2.

The PARTIES are also entitled to unilaterally terminate this lease in the event that the other party is decreed bankrupt by any court or, in case out-of-court or judicial reorganization is formally declared, the petitioner thereof is found to have failed to keep or to have recurrently delayed any commitments and payments assumed in the relevant proceedings.

17.4. In any event of termination hereof due to the LESSEE’s fault, the LESSOR shall, within the period set forth in this Agreement, check all accounts with a view to determining any credit or debt balance paid or owed by the LESSEE considering any of the latter’s prior outstanding obligations, including, but not limited to, any defaulted residual rent, lease chargers, contractual penalties or affirmative covenants, such as contractual fines and any repairs to the Leased Area not made as required by this Agreement, among others. As a result, in order to make a determination according to the provisions of this section, the Parties agree that the payment of any residual amount owed shall be made at the time of final settlement in connection with this Agreement, upon completion of the Previous Exit Report.

18. TERMINATION PENALTY

18.1. Solely and exclusively in the event of early termination hereof by the LESSEE without cause, the following shall apply, to the detriment of imposition of the fine set forth in section 15.2 or any other fine set forth in this Agreement:

(i) if termination occurs by the end of the fifth (5^th) year of the lease term, then the LESSEE shall return to the LESSOR an amount equivalent to the grace period granted by the LESSOR, proportionally to the time remaining before the end of the initial five (5) years of the lease term and to the area being returned, be it a module or shed, upon at least one hundred and eighty (180) days’ notice, and the LESSEE shall not be required to pay any kind of additional contractual fine or penalty;

(ii) if termination occurs after the fifth (5^th) year of the lease term, then the LESSEE shall pay to the LESSOR a penalty equivalent to three (3) times the monthly rent, proportionally to the time remaining before expiration of the ten (10) years’ lease term and to the area being returned, be it a module or shed, upon thirty (30) days’ notice, and if the notice period is no shorter than one hundred and eighty (180) days, then no fine or penalty will be imposed on the LESSEE; and

(iii) specifically for Block 01—Blue and Block 02—Green, if termination occurs by the month of August 2016, then the LESSEE shall pay a fine equivalent to three (3) times the rent, proportionally to the area being returned, be it a module or shed, upon at least sixty (60) days’ notice. After the month of September 2016, the conditions for the other modules, as set forth hereinabove, shall apply.

Paragraph one. It is hereby understood that one of the assumptions for this lease is the possibility that the LESSEE may return partial modules, i.e. part of any of the four leased modules. To that end, within a period of thirty (30) days prior to any such return, the LESSEE shall give the LESSOR notice thereof, and the PARTIES shall, upon receipt of said notice, jointly prepare a plan for return and segregation of the area. Any returned module shall be located at the outer edges of the LEASED AREA, so that it can be individualized and leased to third parties.

Paragraph two. In the event of a partial return, new rules shall be mutually agreed upon for the sharing of common areas and costs not previously provided for in this agreement, and the PARTIES shall jointly draw up internal regulations to be fully observed by all lessees in private areas of the PROPERTY.

18.2. The LESSEE shall be exempted from the foregoing termination fine as from September 1, 2020 if it should formally give the LESSOR at least one hundred and eighty (180) days’ notice of its intent to return the property early.

19. GENERAL AND FINAL PROVISIONS

19.1. Until March 31, 2016, the LESSOR shall, at its own expense, see to it that the occupancy permit for the PROPERTY is amended to reflect not only the logistic use, but also the possibility of industrial use, and if any delay should make it impossible for the LESSEE to use the Leased Area, then the LESSOR shall, after March 31, 2016, apply a hundred-percent (100%) monthly discount from the rent, exclusive of lease charges, for a leased area of 2,416.67 m², until the occupancy permit for the PROPERTY is amended to reflect the possibility of industrial use in addition to logistic use.

The LESSEE is hereby given a right to post publicity or advertising signs, backlit panels, plaquettes, advertising and visual communication posters, to the extent not in conflict with any statutory provisions and postures in force, as well as the Internal Regulations for the common area, if any, in accordance herewith, and all taxes and expenses incurred in connection with restoring the areas in which those are posted to their original condition on occasion of return of the LEASED AREA.

19.3. A mere notification from the relevant federal, state or municipal sanitary agency shall not be grounds for the LESSEE to abandon the LEASED AREA and give notice of termination of this AGREEMENT, unless it is preceded by a court inspection determining that the building is threatened to collapse or posing risks to any persons or the continuity of the LESSEE’s business or unless eviction is ordered by the relevant authority, in which case the LESSEE shall be released from all provisions hereof, except for any overdue rents, which shall be collected as set forth herein.

Sole paragraph. The LESSEE’s release from the obligation set forth in the main section hereof shall not apply if said inspection should find that the relevant damages to the LEASED AREA or the evacuation thereof, as set forth in the aforementioned provision, is due to any willful or negligent action or omission on the LESSEE’s part, in which case all obligations set forth in this AGREEMENT shall be borne by the LESSEE and its guarantors, including rent, charges, fines for breach and termination, as well as full reparation of any damages demonstrably caused to the LESSOR.

19.6. The LESSEE shall allow the LESSOR to inspect the LEASED AREA upon scheduling on forty-eight (48) hours’ notice, during business hours, to the extent there is no disturbance to the activities carried out by the LESSEE.

19.7. The exercise of any right hereunder other than as set forth herein shall not lead to any change in the rules agreed upon, nor can it be claimed as precedent or novation, but allowed out of mere liberality.

19.8. This AGREEMENT is binding upon the PARTIES hereto and their legal heirs and successors.

19.9. Any notices, notifications, subpoenas or other communications in respect of this AGREEMENT shall be delivered in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party sending them and shall be sent by email, to the extent confirmation of receipt is provided by the other Party by registered or certified mail, via Registry of Deeds and Documents or, if necessary, by any other means set forth in the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure at the addresses indicated in the preamble to this AGREEMENT to the following individuals:
