of any monetary obligation to LESSEE. The provisions
contained in the foregoing sentence are not intended to, and
shall not, limit any right the LESSEE might otherwise have
to obtain injunctive relief against LESSOR or to take any
action not involving the liability of LESSOR to respond in
monetary damages from LESSOR's assets other than from such
property.
24. WAIVER Failure on the part of the LESSOR or LESSEE to complain of
any action or non-action on the part of the other, no
matter how long the same may continue, shall never be a
waiver by LESSOR or LESSEE, respectively, of its rights
hereunder. Further, no waiver at any time of the provisions
hereof, by LESSOR or LESSEE shall be construed as a waiver
of any of the other provisions hereof, and a waiver at any
time of any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed
as a waiver at any subsequent time of the same provisions.
The consent or approval of LESSOR or LESSEE to or of any
action by the other requiring such consent or approval shall
not be construed to waive or render unnecessary LESSOR'S or
LESSEE'S consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar
act by the other.
25. STATUS Recognizing that both parties may find it necessary to
REPORT establish to third parties, from time to time, the then
current status of performance hereunder, either party will,
within 10 days after receipt of a request therefore, furnish
a statement of the status of any matter pertaining to this
Lease, including without imitation, acknowledgments that (or
the extent to which) each party is in compliance with its
obligations under the terms of the Lease.
26. CONDITION PERMANENT PREMISES:

A. PREPARATION OF
THE PREMISES: Promptly upon execution of the Lease, LESSEE will have
prepared, at its sole cost and expense, certain plans
("LESSEE'S Plans") for improvements to be made in the
Permanent premises to prepare the Permanent Premises for
LESSEE's occupancy. Upon completion of LESSEE'S Plans,
LESSEE shall submit the same to LESSOR for LESSOR'S
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonable delayed
or withheld. To the extent that LESSOR does not disapprove
LESSEE'S Plans in writing, and provide specific remedies
that will make LESSEE'S Plans acceptable, within ten (10)
Business Days after submission of the same by LESSEE, LESSOR
shall be conclusively deemed to have approved LESSEE'S
Plans. LESSOR shall contribute an allowance of $25,000
($1.25 per rentable square foot) for the preparation of the
LESSEE'S Plans and Specifications, payment to be made after
services are rendered and within thirty (30) days after
LESSEE forwards LESSOR bills or the same.
Promptly after approval of LESSEE'S Plans, LESSOR shall
exercise all reasonable efforts to complete in a cost
effective manner, with reasonable xxxx-ups only, using first
class materials and in a good and xxxxxxx like manner, at
its sole cost and expense, the work specified in LESSEE'S
Plans. The work shall collectively be referred to as the
"Permanent Premises Tenant Improvement Work." LESSEE shall
have no claim against LESSOR for failure so to complete such
Work, other than the right of termination provided in
Section 26B.
B. SUBSTANTIAL
COMPLETION: The Permanent Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy
on the first day (the Permanent Premises Substantial
Completion Date") as of which the Permanent Premises Tenant
Improvement Work has been completed except for items of work
(and, if applicable, adjustment of equipment and fixtures)
which can be completed after occupancy has been taken
without causing undue interference with LESSEE's use of the
Permanent Premises (i.e. so-called "punch list" items) the
building permit has received final sign-offs and LESSEE has
been given notice thereof. LESSOR shall complete, as soon as
conditions permit, all "punch list" items and LESSEE shall
afford LESSOR access to the Permanent Premises for such
purposes. Within a reasonable time after substantial
completion, LESSOR shall secure a final Certificate of
Occupancy for the Premises.
If the Permanent Premises Substantial Completion Date has
not occurred by May 1, 1998 (the "Permanent Premises Outside
Construction Completion Date") as it may be extended
pursuant to section 26.D. LESSEE shall have the right to
terminate this Lease by giving notice to LESSOR not later
than thirty (30) days after the Permanent Premises Outside
Construction Completion Date (as so extended), of LESSEE'S
desire so to do; and this Lease shall cease and come to an
end without further liability or obligation on the part of
either party thirty (30) days after the giving of such
notice, unless, within such 30-day period, LESSOR
substantially completes the
14
Permanent Premises Tenant Improvement Work. Such right of
termination shall be LESSEE's sole and exclusive remedy at
law or in equity for LESSOR's failure so to complete such
Work.
C. CONCLUSIVENESS
OF LESSOR'S
PERFORMANCE: Except as to latent defects, no later than sixty (60) days
after the Permanent Premises Substantial Completion Date,
LESSEE shall provide LESSEE with a list of any respects in
which LESSEE deems LESSOR has not performed LESSOR'S Work,
the so called "Punch List." LESSOR shall then complete such
items of LESSOR'S Work within a reasonable period of time.
D. LESSEES' 1) If a delay shall occur in the Permanent Premises
DELAYS: Substantial Completion Date as the result of:
i) Any request by LESSEE that LESSOR delay in the
commencement of completion of LESSOR's Work for any reason;
ii) Any change by LESSEE in any of LESSEE'S Plans after
LESSEE'S approval thereof;
iii) Any other act or omission of LESSEE or its officers,
agents, servants or contractors; or
iv) Any reasonably necessary displacement of any of the
Permanent Premises Tenant Improvement Work from its place in
LESSOR's construction schedule resulting from any of the
causes for delay referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or
this paragraph and the fitting of such Work back into such
schedule; then LESSEE shall, within ten (10) business days
of the Permanent Premises Commencement Date, pay to LESSOR
for each day of such delay the amount of Basic Rent,
Escalation Charges and other charges that would have been
payable hereunder.
The delays referred to above are herein referred to
collectively and individually as "LESSEE's Delay."
2) If, as a result of LESSEE'S Delay(s), the Substantial
Completion Date is delayed in the aggregate for more than
sixty (60) days, LESSEE shall pay rent on the Initial
Premises at the rate of $22.75 per square foot. If, then, as
a result of LESSEE's Delay(s), the Substantial Completion
Date is delayed in the aggregate for more than an additional
sixty (60) days, LESSOR may (but shall not be required to)
at any time thereafter terminate this Lease by giving
written notice of such termination to LESSEE and thereupon
this Lease shall terminate without further liability or
obligation on the part of either party, except that LESSEE
shall pay to LESSOR the cost theretofore incurred by LESSOR
in performing LESSOR's Work, plus an amount equal to
LESSOR's out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with
this Lease, including, without limitation, brokerage and
legal fees, together
15
with any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 26
through the effective termination date. However, if within
five (5) days of LESSEE'S receipt of LESSOR'S written notice
of termination, LESSEE shall notify LESSOR that the
Permanent Premises Commencement Date is deemed to have
occurred, LESSOR'S Termination notice shall be null and void
and this Lease shall be in full force and effect as to the
Permanent Premises.
3) The Permanent Premises Completion Date shall
automatically be extended for the period of any delays
caused by LESSEE's Delay(s) or Force Majeure.

in part unless such executory agreement is in writing and
signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change,
modification, discharge or abandonment is sought.
34. OPTION TO
EXTEND: Provided that at the time of such exercise (i) there then
exists no Default of LESSEE beyond applicable notice and
cure periods, (ii) this Lease is then in full force and
effect, and (iii) LESSEE is in actual occupancy in excess of
75% of the Premises, LESSEE shall have the right and option

immediately preceding the fifth anniversary of the first day
of such Extended Term. LESSEE shall exercise such option to
extend by giving written notice to LESSOR of its desire to
do so not later than twelve (12) months prior to the
expiration date of the Initial Term. Provided the conditions
of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this section shall have
been satisfied, the giving of such notice by LESSEE shall
automatically extend the Term of this Lease for the Extended
Term, and no instrument of renewal need be executed. In the
event that LESSEE fails to give such notice to LESSOR, this
Lease shall automatically terminate at the end of the
Initial Term, and LESSEE shall have no further option to
extend the Term of this Lease, it being agreed that time is

"Designation"), LESSEE shall by written notice, sent within
twenty (20) days of receipt of Designation, advise LESSOR of
such disagreement; otherwise LESSEE shall conclusively be
deemed to have agreed to such Designation.
In the event that the Parties are unable to agree, each
Party shall appoint an appraiser within ten (10) business
days. Each appraiser so appointed shall be instructed to
determine independently the Fair Market Value and then
confer. If the two appraisers are unable to determine a

ten (10) business days. The Designation of this appraiser
shall be considered final. The final appraisers report shall
be delivered within twenty (20) days and shall be considered
binding on both parties.

amendment to this Lease incorporating the terms and

this Lease within such ten-day period, LESSEE shall have no
further rights under this section with respect to the First
Offer Space and LESSOR shall be free to lease any or all of
such space to other parties. LESSEE'S rights under this
section of the lease shall be subordinate to the existing
tenant's rights under this section, as set forth on Exhibit
F attached hereto. If the First Offer Space remains

two hundred forty (240) days.
