the Premises or change in the space available for lease in the Office Building
Project.
(b) "Base Year" is defined as the calendar year in which the
Lease term commences.
(c) "Comparison Year" is defined as each calendar year during
the term of this Lease subsequent to the Base Year; provided, however, Lessee

expenses Lessee shall pay Lessee's Share, notwithstanding they occur during the
first twelve (12) months). Lessee's Share of the Operating Expense Increase for
the first and last Comparison Years of the Lease Term shall be prorated
according to that portion of such Comparison Year as to which Lessee is
responsible for a share of such increase.

for depreciation thereof (including interest on the unamortized balance as is
then reasonable in the judgment of Lessor's accountants);
(ix) Replacements of equipment or improvements that have a
useful life for depreciation purposes according to federal income tax guidelines
of five (5) years or less, as amortized over such life.
(e) Operating Expenses shall not include the costs of replacements of

Paragraph 4.2(d)(viii), in which case their cost shall be included as above
provided.
(f) Operating Expenses shall not include any expenses paid by any lessee
directly to third parties, or as to which Lessor is otherwise reimbursed by any

(g) Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase shall be payable to

expenses is presented to Lessee by Lessor. At Lessor's option, however, an
amount may be estimated by Lessor from time to time in advance of Lessee's Share
of the Operating Expenses Increase for any Comparison Year, and the same shall
be payable monthly or quarterly, as Lessor shall designate, during each
Comparison Year of the Lease term, on the same day as the Base Rent is due
hereunder. In the event that Lessee pays Lessor's estimate of Lessee's Share of
Operating Expense Increase as aforesaid, Lessor shall deliver to Lessee within
sixty (60) days after the expiration of each Comparison Year a reasonably
detailed statement showing Lessee's Share of the actual Operating Expense
Increase incurred during such year. If Lessee's payments under this Paragraph
4.2(g) during said Comparison Year exceed Lessee's Share as indicated on said
statement, Lessee shall be entitled to credit the amount of such overpayment
against Lessee's Share of Operating Expenses Increase next falling due. If
Lessee's payments under this paragraph during said Comparison Year were less
than Lessee's Share as indicted on said statement, Lessee shall pay to Lessor
the amount of the deficiency within ten (10) days after delivery by Lessor to
Lessee of said statement. Lessor and Lessee shall forthwith adjust between them
by cash payment any balance determined to exist with respect to that portion of
the last Comparison Year for which Lessee is responsible as to Operating Expense

end of such Comparison Year. Lessee shall have the right to audit Operating
Expenses within one hundred eighty (180) days following receipt of a detailed
statement of Operating Expenses from Lessor.
5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof the
Security Deposit set forth in Paragraph 1.9 of the Basic Lease Provisions as
security for Lessee's faithful performance of Lessee's obligations hereunder. If
Lessee fails to pay Rent or other charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults
with respect to any provision of this Lease, Lessor may use, apply or retain all
or any portion of said Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in
default for the payment of any other sum to which Lessor may become obligated by
reason of Lessee's default, or to compensate Lessor for any loss or damage which
Lessor may suffer thereby. If Lessor so uses or applies all or any portion of
said Deposit, Lessee shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefor
deposit cash with Lessor in an amount sufficient to restore said Deposit to the
full amount then required of Lessee. If the Monthly Base Rent shall from time to
time increase during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall, at the time of such
increase, deposit with Lessor additional money as a Security Deposit so that the
total amount of the Security Deposit held by Lessor shall at all times bear the
same proportion to the then current Base Rent as the initial Security Deposit
bears to the initial Base Rent set forth in Paragraph 1.6 of the Basic Lease
Provisions. Lessor shall not be required to keep said Security Deposit separate
from its general accounts. If Lessee performs all of Lessee's obligations
hereunder, said Deposit, or so much thereof as has not heretofore been applied
by Lessor, shall be returned, without payment of interest or other increment for
its use, to Lessee (or, at Lessor's option, to the last assignee, if any, of
Lessee's interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term hereof, and after
Lessee has vacated the Premises. No trust relationship is created herein between
Lessor and Lessee with respect to said Security Deposit.
6. USE.
6.1 USE. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for the purpose set
forth in Paragraph 1.4 of the Basic Lease Provisions or any other use which is
reasonably comparable to that use and for no other purpose.
6.2 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.
Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, promptly comply with all applicable
statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of
record, and requirements of any fire insurance underwriters or rating bureaus,
now in effect or which may hereafter come into effect, whether or not they elect
a change in policy from that now existing, during the term or any part of the
term hereof, relating in any manner to the Premises and the occupation and use
by Lessee of the Premises. Lessee shall conduct its business in a lawful manner
and shall not use or permit the use of the Premises or the Common Areas in any
manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance or shall tend to disturb
other occupants of the Office Building Project. Notwithstanding the above,
should the improvement work Lessee plans to do prior to its taking occupancy to
alter the interiors as shown on Exhibit E attached hereto, necessitate any
alterations pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act "ADA", as it relates
to the building common areas, Lessor shall be responsible for any related costs
incurred in connection with such ADA work.

6.3 CONDITION OF PREMISES.

on the Lease Commencement Date (unless Lessee is already in possession) with the
plumbing, lighting, air conditioning, and heating systems in the Premises in
good operating condition.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee hereby
accepts the Premises and the Office Building Project in their condition existing
as of the Lease Commencement Date or the date that Lessee takes possession of
the Premises, whichever is earlier, subject to punch list items and all

governing and regulating the use of the Premises, and any easements, covenants
or restrictions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto and to all
matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereon. Neither Lessee
nor Lessor's agent or agents has made any representation or warranty as to the
present or future suitability of the Premises, Common Areas, or Office Building
Project for the conduct of Lessee's business.

7.1 LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Lessor shall keep the Office Building Project,
including the Premises, interior and exterior walls, roof, and Common Areas, and
the heating, air conditioning, plumbing, and electrical equipment whether used
exclusively for the Premises or in common with other premises, in good condition
and repair; provided, however, Lessor shall not be obligated to paint, repair or
replace wall coverings, or to repair or replace any improvements that are not
ordinarily a part of the Building or are above then Building standards. Lessee
shall give prompt written notice to Lessor of any known maintenance or repairs
required to be made by Lessor pursuant to this Paragraph 7.1. Lessor shall not
be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance
for which Lessor is responsible unless such failure shall persists for an
unreasonable time after written notice of the need for such repairs or
maintenance is given to Lessor by Lessee and such failure is due solely to
causes within Lessor's reasonable control. Except as provided in Paragraph 9.5,
there shall be no abatement of rent or liability of Lessee on account of any
injury or interference with Lessee's business with respect to any improvements,
alterations or repairs made by Lessor to the Office Building Project or any part
thereof. Lessee expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereinafter
in effect which would otherwise afford Lessee the right to make repairs at
Lessor's expense or to terminate this Lease because of Lessor's failure to keep
the Premises in good order, condition and repair.
7.2 LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS.
(a) Notwithstanding Lessor's obligation to keep the Premises in good
condition and repair, Lessee shall be responsible for payment of the cost
thereof to Lessor as additional rent for that portion of the cost of any
maintenance and repair of the Premises, or any equipment (wherever located) that
serves only Lessee or the Premises, to the extent such cost is attributable to
causes beyond normal wear and tear. Lessee shall be responsible for the cost of
painting, repairing or replacing wall coverings, and to repair or replace any
Premises improvements that are not ordinarily a part of the Building or that are
above then Building standards. Lessor may, at its option, upon reasonable
notice, elect to have Lessee perform any such maintenance or repairs the cost of
which is otherwise Lessee's responsibility hereunder.
(b) On the last day of the term hereof or on any sooner termination,
Lessee shall surrender the Premises to Lessor in the same condition as received,
ordinary wear and tear excepted, clean and free of debris. Any damage or
deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed ordinary wear and tear if the
same could have been prevented by good maintenance practices by Lessee. Lessee
shall repair any damage to the Premises occasioned by the installation or
removal of Lessee's trade fixtures, alterations, furnishings and equipment.
Except as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee shall leave the air lines,
power panels, electrical distribution systems, lighting fixtures, air
conditioning, window coverings, wall coverings, carpets, wall paneling ceilings
and plumbing on the Premises and in good operating condition.
7.3 ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS.
(a) Lessee shall not, without Lessor's prior written consent make any
alterations, improvements, additions, Utility Installations or repairs in, on or
about the Premises, or the Office Building Project without first obtaining the
prior written consent of Lessor as provided below. As used in this Paragraph 7.3
the term "Utility Installation" shall mean carpeting, window and wall coverings,
power panels, electrical distribution systems, lighting fixtures, air
conditioning, plumbing, and telephone and telecommunication wiring and
equipment. At the expiration of the Term, Lessor may require the removal of any
or all of said alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations,
and the restoration of the Premises and the Office Building Project to their
prior condition, at Lessee's expense. Should Lessor permit Lessee to make its
own alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations, Lessee shall
use only such contractors as have been expressly approved by Lessor, and Lessor
may require Lessee to provide Lessor, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, a lien
and completion bond in the amount equal to one and one-half times the estimated
cost of such improvements, to insure Lessor against any liability for mechanic's
and materialmen's liens and to insure completion of the work. Should Lessee make
any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations without the
prior approval of Lessor, or use a contractor not expressly approved by Lessor,
Lessor may, at any time during the term of this Lease, require that Lessee
remove any part or all of the same. Lessee may however, make non-structural
alterations to the interior of the Premises costing less than Thirty Thousand
Dollars ($30,000) per occurrence without obtaining Lessor's prior consent,
provided Lessee adhere to all other provisions of this Paragraph 7.3(a).
Notwithstanding, the above Lessee's planned work as shown on Exhibit E shall not
require removal or restoration at the expiration of the Term.
5
6
(b) Any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installations
in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project that Lessee shall desire
to make shall be presented to Lessor in written form, with proposed detailed
plans. If Lessor shall give its consent to Lessee's making such alteration,
improvement, addition or Utility Installation, the consent shall be deemed
conditioned upon Lessee acquiring a permit to do so from the applicable
governmental agencies, furnishing a copy thereof to Lessor prior to the
commencement of the work, and compliance by Lessee with all conditions of said
permit in a prompt and expeditious manner. Lessee shall give Lessor not less
than ten (10) day's notice prior to the commencement of any work in the Premises
by Lessee, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of non-responsibility
in or on the Premises or the Building as provided by law.
(c) Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials
furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use in
the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanic's or
materialmen's lien against the Premises, the Building or the Office Building
Project, or any interest therein. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the
validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole
expense defend itself and Lessor against the same and shall pay and satisfy any
such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement
thereof against the Lessor or the Premises, the Building or the Office Building
Project, upon the condition that if Lessor shall so require, Lessee shall
furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to
such contested hen claim or demand indemnifying Lessor against liability for the
same and holding the Premises, the Building and the Office Building Project free
from the effect of such lien or claim. In addition, Lessor may require Lessee to
pay Lessor's reasonable attorneys' fees and costs in participating in such
action if Lessor shall decide it is in Lessor's best interest to do so.
(d) All alterations, improvements, additions and Utility Installations
(whether or not such Utility Installations constitute trade fixtures of Lessee),
which may be made to the Premises by Lessee, including, but not limited to,
floor coverings, panelings, doors, drapes, built-ins, moldings, sound
attenuation, and lighting and telephone or communication systems, conduit,
wiring and outlets, shall be made and done in a good and workmanlike manner and
of good and sufficient quality and materials and shall be the property of Lessor
and remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the expiration of the
Lease term) unless Lessor requires their removal pursuant to Paragraph 7.3(a).
Provided Lessee is not in default, notwithstanding the provisions of this
Paragraph 73(d), Lessee's personal property and equipment, other than that which
is affixed to the Premises so that it cannot be removed without material damage
to the Premises or the Building, and other than Utility Installations, shall
remain the property of Lessee and may be removed by Lessee subject to the
provisions of Paragraph 7.2.
(e) Lessee shall provide Lessor with as-built plans and specifications
for any alterations, improvements, additions or Utility Installation.
7.4 UTILITY ADDITIONS. Lessor reserves the right to install new or
additional utility facilities throughout the Office Building Project for the
benefit of Lessor or Lessee, or any other lessee of the Office Building Project,
including, but not by way of limitation, such utilities as plumbing, electrical
systems, communication systems, and fire protection and detection systems, so
long as such installations do not unreasonably interfere with Lessee's use of
the Premises.
8. INSURANCE; INDEMNITY.
8.1 LESSOR'S INSURANCE. All insurance maintained by Lessor shall be for
the sole benefit of Lessor and under Lessor's sole control.
8.1.1 PROPERTY INSURANCE. Lessor agrees to maintain property insurance

vandalism and malicious mischief in an amount not less than the replacement cost
thereof, in the form and with deductibles and endorsements as selected by
Lessor. At its election, Lessor may instead obtain "All Risk" coverage, and may
also obtain earthquake, pollution, and/or flood insurance in amounts selected by
Landlord.
8.1.2 OPTIONAL INSURANCE. Lessor, at Lessor's option, may also carry
insurance against loss of rent, in an amount equal to the amount of Base Rent
and Additional Rent that Lessor could be required to xxxxx to all Building

twelve (12) months. Lessor may also carry such other insurance in such amounts
and on such terms as Lessor shall determine. Lessor shall not be obligated to
insure any furniture, machinery, goods, inventory or supplies which Lessee may
keep or maintain in the Premises, or any leasehold improvements, additions or
alterations, which Lessee has installed within the Premises.

any and all claims for damage to the person or property of anyone or any entity
arising from Lessee's use of the Office Building Project, or new parking
facility or off-site parking, or from the conduct of Lessee's business or from
any activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Lessee in or about
the Premises or elsewhere and shall further indemnify and hold harmless Lessor
from any and all claims, costs and expenses arising from any act or omission of
Lessee, or any of Lessee's agents, contractors, employees, or invitees, and from
and against all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred by
Lessor as the result of any such use, conduct, activity, work, things done,
permitted or suffered, breach, default or negligence, and in dealing reasonably
therewith, including, but not limited to, the defense or pursuit of any claim or
any action or proceeding involved therein; and in case any action or proceeding
be brought against Lessor by reason of any such matter, Lessee upon notice from
Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's expense by counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense,
Lessee need not have first paid any such claim in order to be so indemnified.
Lessee, as a material part of the consideration to Lessor, hereby assumes all
risk of damage to property of Lessee or injury to persons, in, upon or about the
Office Building Project arising from any cause and Lessee hereby waives all
claims in respect thereof against Lessor.
8.4 EXEMPTION OF LESSOR FROM LIABILITY. Lessee hereby agrees that
Lessor shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of income
therefrom or for loss of or damage to the goods, wares, merchandise or other
property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees, customers, or any other person
in or about the Premises or the Office Building Project, nor shall Lessor be
liable for injury to the person of Lessee, Lessee's employees, agents or
contractors, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from theft,
7
8
fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage,
obstruction or other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing,
air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether said
damage or injury results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other
portions of the Office Building Project, or from other sources or places, or
from new construction or the repair, alteration or improvement of any part of
the Office Building Project, or of the equipment, fixtures or appurtenances
applicable thereto, and regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury
or the means of repairing the same is inaccessible, Lessor shall not be liable
for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other lessee, occupant or
user of the Office Building Project, nor from the failure of Lessor to enforce
the provisions of any other lease of any other lessee of the Office Building
Project.
9. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. If the Office Building Project is damaged by fire or
other insured casualty and the insurance proceeds have been made available
therefore by the holder or holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust covering
the Premises or the Office Building Project, the damage shall be repaired by and
at the expense of the Lessor to the extent such insurance proceeds are available
therefore and provided such repairs can, in Lessor's opinion, be made within one
hundred twenty (120) days after the occurrence of such damage without the
payment of overtime or other premiums, and until such repairs are completed rent
shall be abated in proportion to the part of the Premises which is unusable by
Lessee in the conduct of its business (but there shall be no abatement of rent
by reason of any portion of the Premises being unusable for a period equal to
one (1) day or less). If the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Lessee or
its employees, agents or visitors, there shall be no abatement of rent. If
repairs cannot, in Lessor's opinion, be made within one hundred twenty (120)
days, Either Party may, at its option, make them within a reasonable time and in
such event this Lease shall continue in effect and the rent shall be abated in
the manner provided in this Paragraph 9. Lessor's election to make such repairs
must be evidenced by written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after the
learning of the occurrence of the damage. If Lessor does not so elect within
such thirty (30) day period to make such repairs which cannot be made within one
hundred twenty (120) days, then either party may, by written notice to the
other, cancel this Lease as of the date of the occurrence such damage. A total
destruction of the Office Building Project shall automatically terminate this
Lease. Except as provided in this Paragraph 9, there shall be no abatement of
rent and no liability of Lessor by reason of any injury to or interference with
repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Office Building
Project or the Premises or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment
therein, Lessee understands that Lessor will not carry insurance of any kind for
Lessee's furniture, furnishings, fixtures or equipment, and that Lessor shall
not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. With respect
to any damage which Lessor is obligated to repair or elects to repair, Lessee,
as a material inducement to Lessor entering into this Lease, irrevocably waives
and releases its rights under the provisions of Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of
the California Civil Code.
10. REAL PROPERTY TAXES.
10.1 PAYMENT OF TAXES. Lessor shall pay the real property tax, defined
in Paragraph 10.3, applicable to the Office Building Project subject to
reimbursement by Lessee of Lessee's Share of such taxes in accordance with the
provisions of Paragraph 42, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 10.2.
10.2 ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS. Lessee shall not be responsible for
paying any increase in real property tax specified in the tax assessor's records
and work sheets as being caused by additional improvements placed upon the
Office Building Project by other lessees or by Lessor for the exclusive
enjoyment of any other lessee. Lessee shall, however, pay to Lessor at the time
that Operating Expenses are payable under Paragraph 4.2(c) the entirety of any
increase in real property tax if assessed solely by reason of additional
improvements placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request.
10.3 DEFINITION OF "REAL PROPERTY TAX". As used herein, the term "real
property tax" shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment, general,
special, ordinary, and any license fee, commercial rental tax, improvement bond
or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income or estate taxes)
imposed on the Office Building Project or any portion thereof by any authority
having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city, county, state or
federal government, or any school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street,
drainage or other improvement district thereof, as against any legal or
equitable interest of Lessor in the Office Building Project. The term "real
property tax" shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge (i) in
substitution of, partially or totally, any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge
hereinabove included within the definition of "real property tax", or (ii) the
nature of which was hereinbefore included within the definition of "real
property tax", or (iii) which is imposed as a result of a change in ownership,
as defined by applicable local statutes for property tax purposes, of the Office
Building Project or which is added to a tax or charge hereinbefore included
within the definition of real property tax by reason of such change of
ownership, or (iv) which is imposed by reason of this transaction, any
modifications or changes hereto, or any transfers hereof.
10.4 JOINT ASSESSMENT. If the improvements or property, the taxes for
which are to be paid separately by Lessee under Paragraph 10.2 or 10.5 are not
separately assessed, Lessee's portion of that tax shall be equitably determined
by Lessor from the respective valuation assigned in the assessor's work sheets
or such other information (which may include the cost of construction) as may be
reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable determination thereof, on good faith,
shall be conclusive.
10.5 PERSONAL PROPERTY TAXES.
(a) Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes assessed
against and levied upon trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other
personal property of Lessee contained in the Premises or elsewhere.
8
9
(b) If any of Lessee's said personal property shall be
assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the taxes
attributable to Lessee within ten (10) days after receipt of a written statement
setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.
11. UTILITIES.
11.1 SERVICES PROVIDED BY LESSOR. Lessor shall provide heating,
ventilation, air conditioning, and janitorial service as reasonably required,
reasonable amounts of electricity for normal lighting and office machines, water
for reasonable and normal drinking and lavatory use, and replacement light bulbs
and/or fluorescent tubes and ballasts for standard overhead fixtures.
11.2 SERVICES EXCLUSIVE TO LESSEE. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas,
heat, light, power, telephone and other utilities and services specially or
exclusively supplied and/or metered exclusively to the Premises or to Lessee,
together with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered
to the Premises, Lessee shall pay at Lessor's option, either Lessee's Share or a
reasonable proportion to be determined by Lessor of all charges jointly metered
with other premises in the Building.
11.3 HOURS OF SERVICE. Said services and utilities shall be provided
during generally accepted business days and hours or such other days or hours as
may hereafter be set forth. Utilities and services required at other times shall
be subject to reimbursement by Lessee to Lessor of the cost thereof. After hours
usage of the HVAC system will be billed at $5.00 per hour per heat pump. As of
the Commencement Date, accepted business hours are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday
through Friday. Lessor shall have the right to increase the after hours usage
charge by providing thirty (30) days' notice thereof.
11.4 EXCESS USAGE BY LESSEE. Lessee shall not make connection to the
utilities except by or through existing outlets and shall not install or use
machinery or equipment in or about the Premises that uses excess water, lighting
or power, or suffer or permit any act that causes extra burden upon the
utilities or services, including, but not limited to, security services, over
standard office usage for the Office Building Project. Lessee shall reimburse
Lessor for any excess expenses or costs that may arise out of a breach of this
subparagraph by Lessee. Lessor may, in its sole discretion, install at Lessee's
expense supplemental equipment and/or separate metering applicable to Lessee's
excess usage or loading.
11.5 INTERRUPTIONS. There shall be no abatement of rent and Lessor
shall not be liable in any respect whatsoever for the inadequacy, stoppage,
interruption or discontinuance of any utility or service due to riot, strike,
labor dispute, breakdown, accident, repair or other cause beyond Lessor's
reasonable control or in cooperation with governmental request or directions.
12. NONASSIGNMENT.
12.1 LESSEE'S CONSENT REQUIRED. Lessee's interest in this Lease is not
assignable, by operation of law or otherwise, nor shall Lessee have the right to
sublet the Premises, transfer any interest of Lessee therein or permit any use
of the Premises by another party, without the prior written consent of Lessor to
such assignment, subletting, transfer or use, which consent Lessor agrees not to
withhold unreasonably subject to the provisions of Paragraph 12.2 below. A
consent to one assignment, subletting, occupancy or use by another party shall
not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent assignment, subletting,
occupancy or use by another party. Any assignment or subletting without such
consent shall be void and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate this Lease.
Lessor's waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting hereunder shall not
relieve Lessee from any obligation under this Lease unless the consent shall so
provide.
12.2 TRANSFEREE INFORMATION REQUIRED. If Lessee desires to assign its
interest in this Lease or sublet the Premises, or transfer any interest of
Lessee therein, or permit the use of the Premises by another party (hereinafter
collectively referred to as a "Transfer"), Lessee shall give Lessor at least
twenty (20) days prior written notice of the proposed Transfer and of the terms
of such proposed Transfer, including, but not limited to, the name and legal
composition of the proposed transferee, a financial statement of the proposed
transferee, the nature of the proposed transferee's business to be carried on in
the Premises, the payment to be made or other consideration to be given to
Lessee on account of the Transfer, and such other pertinent information as may
be requested by Lessor, all in sufficient detail to enable Lessor to evaluate
the proposed Transfer and the prospective transferee. It is the intent of the
parties hereto that this Lease shall confer upon Lessee only the right to use
and occupy the Premises, and to exercise such other rights as are conferred upon
Lessee by this Lease. The parties agree that this Lease is not intended to have
a bonus value nor to serve as a vehicle whereby Lessee may profit by a future
Transfer of this Lease or the right to use or occupy the Premises as a result of
any favorable terms contained herein, or future changes in the market for leased
space. It is the intent of the parties that any such bonus value that may attach
to this Lease shall be and remain the exclusive property of Lessor. Accordingly,
in the event Lessee seeks to Transfer its interest in this Lease or the
Premises, Lessor shall have the following options, which may be exercised at its
sole choice without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any other right or remedy
which Lessor may have by reason of such proposed Transfer:
(a) Lessor may elect to terminate this Lease effective as of
the proposed effective date of the proposed Transfer and release Lessee from any
further liability hereunder accruing after such termination date by giving
Lessee written notice of such termination within twenty (20) days after receipt
by Lessor of Lessee's notice of intent to transfer as provided above. If Lessor
makes such election to terminate this Lease,
9
10
Lessee shall surrender the Premises, in accordance with Paragraph 50, on or
before the effective termination date; or
(b) Lessor may consent to the proposed Transfer on the
condition that Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor, as additional rent, any and all
rents or other consideration (including key money) received by Lessee from the
transferee by reason of such Transfer in excess of the rent payable by Lessee to
Lessor under this Lease (less any reasonable brokerage commissions incurred by
Lessee in connection with the Transfer). Lessee expressly agrees that the
foregoing is a reasonable condition for obtaining Lessor's consent to any
Transfer; or
(c) Lessor may reasonably withhold its consent to the
proposed Transfer.
13. DEFAULT, REMEDIES.
13.1 DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events
shall constitute a material default of this Lease by Lessee:
(a) The vacation or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee.
Vacation of the Premises shall include the failure to occupy the Premises for a
continuous period of thirty (30) days or more, whether or not the rent is paid.
(b) The breach by Lessee of any of the covenants, conditions
or provisions of Paragraphs 7.3.(a), (b) or (c) (Alterations), 12.1 (Assignment
or Subletting), 13.1(a) (Vacation or Abandonment), 13.1(e) (Insolvency), 13.1(f)
(False Statement), 16(a) (Estoppel Certificate), 30(b) (Subordination), 33
(Auctions), or 42.1 (Easements), all of which are hereby deemed to be material,
non-curable defaults without the necessity of any notice by Lessor to Lessee
thereof.
(c) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of rent or any
other payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due, where
such failure shall continue for a period of three (3) business days after
written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee. In the event that Lessor serves
Lessee with a Notice to Pay Rent or Quit pursuant to applicable Unlawful
Detainer statutes such Notice to Pay Rent or Quit shall also constitute the
notice required by this subparagraph.
(d) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the
covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by
Lessee other than those referenced in Subparagraphs (b) and (c) above, where
such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written
notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee, provided, however, that if the nature of
Lessee's noncompliance is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably
required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if
Lessee commenced such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter
diligently pursues such cure to completion. To the extent permitted by law, such
thirty (30) day notice shall constitute the sole and exclusive notice required
to be given to Lessee under applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes.
(e) (i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or
general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) Lessee becoming a "debtor"
as defined in 11 U.S.C. 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the
case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60)
days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty
(30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of
substantially all of Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's
interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30)
days. In the event that any provision of this Paragraph 13.1(e) is contrary to
any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect
(f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given
to Lessor by Lessee, or its successor in interest or by any guarantor of
Lessee's obligation hereunder, was materially false.
13.2 REMEDIES. In the event of any material default or breach of this
Lease by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, with or without notice or
demand and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which
Lessor may have by reason of such default-
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by
any lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate
and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In
such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred
by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default, including, but not limited to, the cost
of recovering possession of the Premises; expenses of reletting, including
necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees,
and any real estate commission actually paid; the worth at the time of award by
the court having jurisdiction thereof of the amount by which the unpaid rent for
the balance of the term after the time of such award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss for the same period that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided;
and, that portion of the leasing commission paid by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph
15 applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease.
(b) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case this
Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have vacated or
abandoned the Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of
Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
the rent as it becomes due hereunder.
10
11
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to
Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises
are located. Unpaid installments of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations
to Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at
the maximum rate then allowable by law.
13.3 LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by
Lessee to Lessor of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase or
other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by
this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain.
Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges,
and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or
trust deed covering the Office Building Project. Accordingly, if any installment
of Base Rent, Operating Expense Increase, or any other sum due from Lessee shall
not be received by Lessor or Lessor's designee within six (6) days after such
amount shall be due, then, without any requirements for notice to Lessee, Lessee
shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to 6% of such overdue amount. The
parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable
estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee.
Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver
of Lessee's default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from
exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.
14. CONDEMNATION. If the Premises or any portion thereof or the Office Building
Project are taken under the power of eminent domain, or sold under the threat of
the exercise of said power (all of which are herein called "condemnation"), this
Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning
authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs; provided that if so
much of the Premises or the Office Building Project are taken by such
condemnation as would substantially and adversely affect the operation of
Lessee's business conducted from the Premises, In Lessor's reasonable
discretion, Lessee shall have the option, to be exercised only in writing within
thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such
taking (or in the absence of such notice, within thirty (30) days after receipt
after the condemning authority shall have taken possession), to terminate this
Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee
does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall
remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining,
except that the rent and Lessee's Share of Operating Expense Increase shall be
reduced from the Common Areas usable by Lessee. Lessor shall have the option in
its sole discretion to terminate this Lease as of the taking of possession by
the condemning authority, by giving written notice to Lessee of such election
within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of a taking by condemnation of
any part of the Premises or the Office Building Project. Any award for the
taking of all or any part of the Premises or the Office Building Project under
the power or eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of
such power shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as
compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for the taking of the
fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled
to any separate award for loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures,
removable personal property and unamortized tenant improvements that have been
paid for by Lessee. For that purpose the cost of such improvements shall be
amortized over the original term of this Lease excluding any options. In the
event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor
shall to the extent of severance damages received by Lessor in connection with
such condemnation, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation
except to the extent that Lessee has been reimbursed therefor by the condemning
authority. Lessee shall pay any amount in excess of such severance damages
required to complete such repair.
15. BROKERS. Lessee represents and warrants to Lessor that it has not dealt with
any broker respecting this transaction, except Colliers International and hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and against any brokerage
commission or fee, obligation, claim or damage (including attorneys' fees) paid
or incurred respecting any other broker claiming through Lessee or with
which/whom Lessee has dealt. It is acknowledged that one or more of Lessor's
partners may be real estate brokers.
16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
(a) Each party (as "responding party") shall at any time upon not less
than ten (10) days' prior written notice from the other party ("requesting
party") execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party a statement in
writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and
effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying
that this Lease, as so modified, is in fall force and effect) and the date to
which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii)
acknowledging that there are not, to the responding party's knowledge, any
uncured defaults on the part of the requesting party, or specifying such
defaults if any are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon
by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Office Building Project or
of the business of Lessee.
(b) At the requesting party's option, the failure to deliver such
statement within such time shall be a material default of this Lease by the
party who is to respond without any further notice to such party, or it shall be
conclusive upon such party that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by the requesting party, (ii)
there are no uncured defaults in the requesting party's performance, and (iii)
if Lessor is the requesting party, not more than one months rent has been paid
in advance.
(c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Office
Building Project, or any part thereof, Lessee hereby agrees to deliver to any
lender or purchaser designated- by Lessor such financial statements of Lessee as
may be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser. Such statements shall
include the past three (3) years' financial statements of Lessee. All such
financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in
confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
11
12
17. LESSOR'S LIABILITY. The term "Lessor" as used herein shall mean only the
owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title or a lessee's
interest in a ground lease of the Office Building Project. In the event of any
transfer of such title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any
subsequent transfers then the grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date
of such transfer of all liability as respects Lessor's obligations thereafter to
be performed, provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor
at the time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be
delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be
performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor's
successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership.
18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction shall in no way affect the validity of any
other provision hereof.
19. INTEREST ON PAST-DUE OBLIGATIONS. Except as expressly herein provided, any
amount due to Lessor not paid when due shall bear interest at the maximum rate
then allowable by law or judgements from the date due. Payment of such interest
shall not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease, provided,
however, that interest shall not be payable on late charges incurred by Lessee.
20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to the obligations to
be performed under this Lease.
21. ADDITIONAL RENT. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the
terms of this Lease, including but not limited, to Lessee's Share of Operating
Expense Increase and any other expenses payable by Lessee hereunder shall be
deemed to be rent, whether or not described or designated as such. Upon Lessee's
non-payment of any of the same, Lessor shall have all the rights and remedies
with respect thereto as Lessor has for the non-payment of Base Rent.
22. INCORPORATION OF PRIOR AGREEMENTS, AMENDMENTS. This Lease contains all
agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior
or contemporaneous agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter
shall be effective. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the
parties in interest at the time of the modification. Except as otherwise stated
in this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither the real estate broker
listed in Paragraph 15 hereof nor any cooperating broker on this transaction nor
the Lessor or any employee or agents of any of said persons has made any oral or
written warranties or representations to Lessee relative to the condition or use
by Lessee of the Premises or the Office Building Project and Lessee acknowledges
that Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the occupational Safety Health
Act, the legal use and adaptability of the Premises and the compliance thereof
with all applicable laws and regulations in effect during the term of this
Lease.
23. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in
writing and may be given by personal delivery or by certified or registered
mail, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered or addressed to Lessee
or to Lessor at the address noted below or adjacent to the signature of the
respective parties, as the case may be. Mailed notices shall be deemed given
upon actual receipt at the address required, or forty-eight hours following
deposit in the mail, postage prepaid, whichever first occurs. Either party may
by notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes except
that upon Lessee's taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall
constitute Lessee's address for notice purposes. A copy of all notices required
or permitted to be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted
to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time
hereafter designate by notice to Lessee. At the date of execution of this Lease,
the address of Lessor is:
0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000

24. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof shall be deemed a
waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Lessee of
the same or any other provision. Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any act
shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor's consent to
or approval of any subsequent act by Lessee. The acceptance of rent hereunder by
Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provision
hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted,
regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
25. RECORDING. Either Lessor or Lessee shall, upon request of the other,
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a "short form" memorandum of this
Lease for recording purposes.
26. HOLDING OVER. If Lessee, with Lessor's consent, remains in possession of the
Premises or any part thereof after the expiration of the term hereof, such
occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month upon all the provisions of this
Lease pertaining to the obligations of Lessee, except that the rent payable
shall be one hundred-fifty percent (150%) of the rent payable immediately
preceding the termination date of this Lease, and
12
13
all Options, if any, granted under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed
terminated and be of no further effect during said month to month tenancy.
27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at
law or in equity.
28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. Each provision of this Lease performable by Lessee
shall be deemed both a covenant and a condition.
29. BINDING EFFECT, CHOICE OF LAW. Subject to any provisions hereof restricting
assignment or subletting by Lessee and subject to the provisions of Paragraph
17, this Lease shall bind the parties, their personal representatives,
successors and assignees. This Lease shall be governed by the laws of the State
of California and any litigation concerning this Lease between the parties
hereto shall be initiated in Santa Xxxxx County.
30. SUBORDINATION.
(a) This Lease, and any Option or right of first refusal granted hereby, at
Lessor's option, shall be subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of
trust, or any other hypothecation or security now or hereafter placed upon the
Office Building Project and to any and all advances made on the security thereof
and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions
thereof. Notwithstanding such subordination, Lessee's right to quiet possession
of the Premises shall not be disturbed if Lessee is not in default and so long
as Lessee shall pay the rent and observe and perform all of the provisions of
this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms. If
any mortgagee, trustee or ground lessor shall elect to have this Lease and any
Options granted hereby prior to the lien of its mortgage, deed or trust or
ground lease, and shall give written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease and
such Options shall be deemed prior to such mortgage, deed of trust or ground
lease, whether this Lease or such Options are dated prior or subsequent to the
date of said mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease or the date of recording
thereof. Lessor agrees to use its best efforts to provide Lessee with a
subordination, nondisturbance and attornment agreement in customary form
executed by the lender having a lien against Office Building Project upon
obtaining permanent financing.
(b) Lessee agrees to execute any documents required to effectuate an
attornment, a subordination, or to make this Lease or any Option granted herein
prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust or ground lease, as the case
may be so long as any subordination agreement contains customary non-disturbance
provisions. Lessee's failure to execute such documents within ten (10) days
after written demand shall constitute a material default by Lessee hereunder
without further notice to Lessee or, at Lessor's option, Lessor shall execute
such documents on behalf of Lessee as Lessee's attorney-in-fact. Lessee does
hereby make, constitute and irrevocably appoint Lessor as Lessee's
attorney-in-fact and in Lessee's name, place and stead, to execute such
documents in accordance with this Paragraph 30(b).
31. ATTORNEYS' FEES.
31.1 If either party brings an action to enforce the terms hereof or declare
rights hereunder, the prevailing party in any such action, trial or appeal
thereon, shall be entitled to his reasonable attorneys' fees to be paid by the
losing party as fixed by the court in the same or a separate suit, and whether
or not such action is pursued to decision or judgment.
31.2 The attorneys' fee award shall not be computed in accordance with any
court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys' fees
reasonably incurred in good faith.
31.3 Lessor shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and all other
costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notice of default
and consultations in connection herewith, whether or not a legal transaction is
subsequently commenced in connection with such default.
32. LESSOR'S ACCESS.
32.1 Lessor and Lessor's agents shall have the right to enter the Premises
at reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same, performing any
services required of Lessor, showing the same to prospective purchasers,
lenders, or lessees, taking such safety measures, erecting such scaffolding or
other necessary structures, making such alterations, repairs, improvements or
additions to the Premises or to the Office Building Project as Lessor may
reasonably deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using and maintaining
of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the Premises and/or other
premises as long as there is no material adverse effect to Lessee's use of the
Premises. Lessor may at any time place on or about the Premises or the Building
any ordinary "For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any time during the last 120
days of the term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease"
signs.
32.2 All activities of Lessor pursuant to this Paragraph 32 shall be without
abatement of rent, nor shall Lessor have any liability to Lessee for the same.
32.3 Lessor shall have the right to retain keys to the Premises and to
unlock all doors in or upon the Premises other than to files, vaults and safes,
and in the case of emergency to enter the Premises by any reasonably appropriate
means, and any such entry shall not be deemed a forcible or unlawful entry or
detainer of the Premises or an eviction. Lessee waives any charges for damages
or injuries or interference with Lessee's property or business in connection
therewith.
13
14
33. AUCTIONS. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises or the Common Areas
without first having obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to
exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such
consent The holding of any auction on the Premises or Common Areas in violation
of this Paragraph 33 shall constitute a material default of this Lease.
34. SIGNS. Lessee shall at Lessee's expense be granted a pro rata share of the
lobby signage as well as signage on the third (3rd) floor of the premises.
Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises or the Office Building Project
without Lessor's prior written consent.
35. MERGER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a
mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Lessor, shall not work a
merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing
subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor
of any or all of such subtenancies.
36. CONSENTS. Except for Paragraphs 33 (Auctions) and 34 (Signs) hereof,
wherever in this Lease, the consent of one party is required to an act of the
other party such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
37. GUARANTOR. In the event that there is a guarantor of this Lease, said
guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease.
38. QUIET POSSESSION. Upon Lessee paying the rent for the Premises and observing
and performing all of the covenants, conditions, and provisions on Lessee's part
to be observant and performed hereunder, Lessee shall have quiet possession of
the Premises for the entire term hereof subject to all of the provisions of this
Lease.
39. SECURITY MEASURES - LESSOR'S RESERVATIONS.
39.1 Lessee hereby acknowledges that Lessor shall have no obligation
whatsoever to provide security measures for the benefit of the Premises or the
Office Building Project. Lessee assumes all responsibility for the protection of
Lessee, its agents, and invitees and the property of Lessee and of Lessee's
agents and invitees from acts of third parties. Nothing herein contained shall
prevent Lessor, at Lessor's sole option, from providing security protection for
the Office Building Project or any part thereof, in which event the cost thereof
shall be included within the definition of Operating Expense, as set forth in
Paragraph 4.2(d).
39.2 Lessor shall have the following rights:
(a) To change the name, address or title of the Office Building Project
or Building in which the Premises are located upon not less than ninety (90)

necessary or advisable upon the roof, exterior of the buildings or the Office

stored at the Premises and required with the routine operation and
maintenance of the Premises for general office use, and then only upon

consultant to conduct an investigation to determine whether any
Hazardous Material is being used, generated, discharged, transported to

on or about the Premises, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the cost of
such investigation. Lessee, at its expense, shall comply with all
reasonable recommendations of the consultant required to conform
Lessee's use, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials to the
requirements of applicable Law or to fulfill the obligations of Lessee
hereunder.
I. HOLDING OVER. If any action of any kind is required to be taken by any
governmental authority to clean-up, remove, remediate or monitor a
Hazardous Material (the presence of which is the result of the acts or
omissions of Lessee or its Agents) and such action is not completed
prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Lessee
shall be deemed to have impermissibly held over until such time as such
required action is completed, and Lessor shall be entitled to all

easements, rights, dedications, Maps and restrictions do not unreasonably

notices as provided by law, or which Lessor deems necessary for the protection
of Lessor or the Office Building Project, showing the same to prospective
Lessees or purchasers of the Office Building Project, and for making such
alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Office
Building Project as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable. If Lessee shall not
be personally present to open and permit an entry into the Premises at any time
when such an entry by Lessor is necessary or permitted hereunder, Lessor may
enter by means of a master key or may enter forcibly, without liability to
Lessee except for any failure to exercise due care for Lessee's property, and
without affecting this Lease.
55. CONSTRUCTION OF ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS. Lessor hereby notifies Lessee that
Lessor intends to construct a building and related improvements on the parcel
adjacent to the Building and that such construction will cause increased noise
levels, dust and other possible nuisances which may affect occupants of the
Building, including Lessee. Lessee hereby waives all claims for any injury to
Lessee's business or loss of income therefrom, or for damage that may be
sustained by the person or property of Lessee, its employees, invitees,
customers, agents, or contractors, caused by or resulting from such
construction.
56. OPTION TO EXTEND.
GRANT OF OPTION. Lessor hereby grants to Lessee one (1) option (the
"Option") to extend the Initial Term of the Lease ("Initial Term") for an
additional five (5) years (the "Option Term") upon and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Lease. Lessee shall have no right to extend the
Initial Term except as provided herein. The Option shall be personal to
SalesLogix, a Delaware corporation, and shall not be transferable or assignable
to any assignee of the Lease. The Option shall be exercised, if at all, by
Lessee's delivery of written notice of exercise to Lessor no later than one
hundred eighty (180) days nor earlier than two hundred forty (240) days prior to
the expiration date of the Initial Term. The Basic Rental to be paid during the
Option Term shall be at the Prevailing Market Rental, projected as of the
Commencement of the Option Term, as hereinafter defined. As used herein, the
term "Prevailing Market Rental" shall mean the rental and all other monetary
payments and escalations that Lessor could obtain from a third party lessee
desiring to lease the Premises for the Option Term, taking into account the age
of the Project, the size of the Premises, the type and quality of construction
of the Office Building Project and the Premises, and all other factors that
would be
17
18
relevant to a third party in determining the rental such party would be willing
to pay to lease the Premises for the Option Term; provided, however, in no event
shall the Prevailing Market Rental be less than the Base Rent payable by Lessee
to Lessor at the expiration of the Initial Term. If (i) Lessee is in default
under any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of this Lease or (ii) Lessee
does not occupy all of the Premises, either at the time Lessee exercised the
Option or at any time thereafter prior to the commencement date of the Option
Term (the "Option Commencement Date"), then in each case, Lessee's exercise of
the Option shall be of no force and effect and Lessee shall have no rights
hereunder to extend the Initial Term.
Lessor and Lessee shall have fifteen (15) days ("Negotiation Period")
after the date Lessor receives Lessee's notice of exercise of the option within
which to agree on the monthly Base Rent during the Option Term. If Lessor and
Lessee agree on the monthly Base Rent for the Option Term within the Negotiation
Period, the parties hereto shall promptly thereafter execute an amendment to
this Lease stating the monthly Base Rent-for the Option Term. If Lessor and
Lessee are unable to agree on the monthly Base Rent for the Option Term within
the Negotiation Period, then Lessee's notice of exercise of the option shall be
of no effect, the grant of option under this Section 55 shall terminate and be
of no further force or effect, and this Lease shall terminate at the end of the
initial term, unless sooner terminated. Neither Lessor nor Lessee shall have the
right to have a court or other third party set the monthly Base Rent.
