ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 25, 2011, LinkedIn Corporation (the “Company”) entered into the Sixth Amendment to Lease (the “Lease Amendment”) with Britannia Hacienda VIII LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Landlord”). The Lease Amendment amends the Lease with the Landlord dated March 20, 2007, as amended, for the Company’s headquarters located at 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043 and provides for the leasing of additional buildings within the Britannia Shoreline Technology Park. In addition to the office premises the Company currently occupies, the Lease Amendment provides for the lease of an additional approximate 150,000 square feet (the “Expansion Premises”). The Lease Amendment also covers approximately 70,000 rentable square feet (the “New Building Premises”).

Pursuant to the Lease Amendment, the term of the Company’s lease with respect to the existing premises, Expansion Premises and New Building Premises will be extended by ten years (the “Extended Term”) from the date of delivery of the New Building Premises and, following the expiration of the initial term, the Company has two options to extend the term of the lease for a period of five years each.

Commencing on the Expansion Commencement Date and continuing through the Extended Term, rent for the existing premises and the Expansion Premises will be paid on a monthly basis and will increase incrementally from $803,466.75 per month to $1,173,031.14 per month through 2023. Commencing upon delivery of the New Building Premises, rent for the New Building Premises is to be paid on a monthly basis and will increase incrementally from $252,000.00 per month for the first year of the term to $343,499.22 per month for the tenth and final year of the term.

The foregoing is a summary of certain material provisions of the Lease Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Lease Amendment, attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
