      This Fifth Amendment to New Lease ("Amendment") is entered into, and dated for reference purposes, as of July 11, 2008 (the "Execution Date") by and between METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation ("Metropolitan"), as Landlord ("Landlord"), and PHARMACYCLICS, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Pharmacyclics"), as Tenant ("Tenant"), with reference to the following facts ("Recitals"):

      A. Landlord and Tenant are parties to that certain written lease comprised of the following: that certain Lease and Lease Termination Agreement dated as of June 14, 2000 (the "New Lease"), that certain First Amendment to New Lease dated as of April 10, 2001 (the "First Amendment"), that certain Second Amendment to New Lease dated as of June 29, 2001 (the "Second Amendment"), that certain Third Amendment to New Lease dated as of February 5, 2003 (the "Third Amendment") and that certain Fourth Amendment to New Lease dated as of August 14, 2006 (the "Fourth Amendment") for the premises more particularly described therein of 64,776 rentable square feet ("RSF") located at 995 and 999 E. Arques Avenue, Sunnyvale, California ("Existing Premises"). The New Lease, as amended, is referred to herein as the "Existing Lease."

      B. Landlord and Tenant desire to surrender a portion of the Existing Premises defined in the First Amendment as "Expansion Space A," and referred to herein as Expansion Space A, add an expansion space to the Existing Premises previously defined in the Second Amendment as "Expansion Space B," however for purposes of this Amendment shall hereinafter be defined as the "Expansion Space C" and provide for extension of the Lease Term and other amendments of the Existing Lease as more particularly set forth below.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of the mutual covenants set forth herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      Section 1 . Scope of Amendment; Defined Terms . Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, the Existing Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Should any inconsistency arise between this Amendment and the Existing Lease as to the specific matters which are the subject of this Amendment, the terms and conditions of this Amendment shall control. The term "New Lease" as used herein and in the Existing Lease shall refer to the Existing Lease as modified by this Amendment, except as expressly provided in this Amendment. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Existing Lease unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

      Section 2. Retroactive Effect . Landlord and Tenant have executed this Amendment on the respective dates set forth below their respective signatures at the end of this Amendment, but intend and agree that it shall be effective as of July 1, 2008 with the same force and effect as if executed on that date. Promptly after execution of this Amendment, Landlord shall bill Tenant for the amount of Monthly Installments of rent and all other rent due pursuant to this Amendment in excess of amounts actually paid by Tenant for the period from and after the Expansion Space C Commencement Date (defined below), and Tenant shall pay the amount due within ten (10) days after receipt of such bill. In the event that amounts actually paid by Tenant on after the Expansion Space C Commencement Date and before execution of this Amendment exceed the amount due pursuant to this Amendment, Landlord shall credit any such overpayment to rent next coming due from Tenant hereunder. Within a reasonable time after such execution, Landlord shall refund to Tenant any excess, and Tenant shall pay Landlord any shortage, in payments received from Tenant with respect to the period from the Expansion Space C Commencement Date through the date of such execution in comparison to payments due pursuant to this Amendment for the same period.

      (c) Effect on Existing Lease After Surrender Date . After the Surrender Date, the Existing Lease shall continue in full force and effect for the Lease Term upon and subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Existing Lease, as amended by this Amendment, including, without limitation, the following modifications of the Existing Lease:
