pass-throughs, taxes., etc., shall be reduced except to the extent that such
items (including electricity) are properly attributable to phases which have
been surrendered and vacated by Lessee for periods following such surrender and
vacation (e.g., once a phase has been surrendered and vacated in accordance
herewith, property taxes, landscaping and exterior maintenance measured on a pro
rata square footage basis shall no longer be charged to Lessee to the extent
attributable to periods after such surrender and vacation and Lessor will not
charge Lessee for electricity which is determined to have been actually used by
New Tenant).

to Lessee.
b) Payment to Lessee. Subject to Lessor's right to reduce or offset any
ofthe following payment(s) to Lessee (which reduction and offset right is hereby
expressly acknowledged by Lessee and reserved by Lessor) to appropriately take
into account any Losses/Liabilities suffered or incurred by Lessor, in the event
that Lessee does not fully and timely perform and comply in all respects and
particulars (or if a representation or warranty of Lessee is incorrect or if a
breach, Breach, default, Default or any other failure to fully and timely pay or
perform by Lessee occurs, exists or arises (or any event or condition occurs,
exists or arises which with notice, passage of time, action, election, or
otherwise would constitute any breach, Breach, default or Default or any other
failure to fully and timely pay or perform by Lessee)) with respect to the Lease
(as hereby amended) and/or this Agreement:
(i) After Lessee actually surrenders and vacates the following
respective phases of the Premises in accordance with this Agreement, Lessor
shall make payments in the following respective amounts:
(1) Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) after surrender of'
Phase I in its entirety (but such payment shall not be due earlier than
September 30, 2000);
(2) Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) after surrender of
Phase II in its entirety (but such payment shall not be due earlier than October
31, 2000); and
(3) One Million One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,150,000)
after surrender of the entire Premises (but such payment shall not be due
earlier than January 10, 2001).
(ii) Lessor shall have the right to reasonably verify, by physical
inspection and otherwise, that such surrender is actually proceeding as
specified (including the right to conduct a reasonable walk-through inspection
guided by a knowledgeable representative of Lessee of both the space to be
surrendered hereunder and Lessee's replacement space under its new lease).
Provided Lessee so delivers and complies with Section 3.a)(iii) above for each
of Phases I and II in accordance herewith, the respective payments under (1) and
(2) immediately above shall be due and payable by wire transfer within one
business day after the actual timely surrender and vacation of the entire
relevant phase in each case (but not earlier than the date provided for such
surrender in this Agreement for the surrender of such phases). Provided Lessee
so delivers and complies with Section 3.a)(iii) for each of Phases III, IV and V
in accordance herewith (not later than five (5) days after the surrender date
therefor), payment under (3) immediately above shall be due and payable at
Lessor's election either (i) through an escrow to be conducted at a title
company, bank or similar commercial escrow holder's escrow department, or (ii)
by a bank letter of credit. To provide for payment under (3) immediately above,
on or before January 14, 2001, Lessor shall either (i) deliver the said letter
of credit (if applicable) to Lessee or (ii) deposit into the said escrow (if
applicable) the funds required under (3) immediately above. Whether the escrow
or the letter of credit is used, in either case the payment to Lessee shall only
be required to be made within one business day after delivery of a notarized
certificate executed by Lessee and New Tenant certifying that full surrender and
vacation of each of Phases III, IV and V has occurred in their entirety on or
before January 15, 2001(i.e., within five (5) days after the surrender date
therefor). This paragraph (ii) shall not override any offset or reduction rights
of Lessor which may be applicable under this Agreement. Further, this paragraph
(ii) shall not apply in the event that the surrender or vacation of any Phase is
not fully and timely made (or in the case of Phases III, IV and V so certified
to have been so made on or before January 15, 2001) in accordance with this
Agreement or in the event that stipulated judgment for possession is obtained by
Lessor pursuant to this Agreement.
(iii) The aforementioned payments shall constitute a return and
reimbursement of a portion of the rents previously paid by Lessee under the
Lease which is being paid in full satisfaction of any and all claims of damage
resulting from any of Lessor's and/or its Related Persons' actions or omissions.
(iv) In addition to any and all other rights and remedies as may ever
be available to Lessor, SBC and/or others, whether under this Agreement, the
Lease,applicable law, principles of equity or otherwise, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere,if Lessee does not fully and timely
surrender and vacate and cause the surrender and vacation of the Premises as
required hereby strictly in accordance with the terms hereof, time being of the
essence in this regard, the aggregate amount of the aforementioned payments
shall be reduced by an aggregate amount equal to the sum of any Per Diem
Reductions (as described below) for each day (or portion thereof) that any
portion of any Phase of the Premises is surrendered or vacated later than 5 p.m.
on the fifth (5th) day after the applicable surrender date (or, in the case of
Phase I and Phase II only, on the fifteenth (15th) day after the applicable
surrender date)for that Phase. The "Per Diem Reductions" shall be Eight Thousand
Nine Hundred Twenty-five Dollars ($8,925) per day for Phase I, One Thousand
Seven Hundred Twenty-two Dollars ($1,722) per day for Phase II; Twenty-one
Thousand Five Hundred Seventy-five Dollars ($21,575) per day for Phase III; Two
Thousand Twenty-eight Dollars ($2,028) per day for Phase IV; and Three Thousand
Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($3,250) per day for Phase V. Any reductions resulting
under this sub-paragraph shall be applied to the first payments next coming due
under subparagraph(s) (1), (2) and (3) above, and if at any time said reductions
exceeds the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid (after taking into account any
offsets permitted under this Agreement) under said subparagraphs (1), (2) and/or
(3) above, then the amount of said excess shall be immediately due and payable
by Lessee as additional Base Rent under the Lease. Without limitation of
Lessor's other rights and remedies, the aforementioned reductions and/or excess
payments shall be in addition to any other Base Rent and/or other rents,
charges, expenses, pass-throughs, late charges, taxes, interest and other
amounts which may be applicable as a result of any late surrender of the
Premises under the Lease.
c) Lessee's New Lease. Lessee concurrently herewith is delivering to
Lessor an unexecuted copy of a new lease by Lessee and a third party landlord
for separate space (consisting of at least 50,000 rentable square feet) other
than the Premises to which Lessee will relocate its business, including, without
limitation, provisions for the delivery of the new space and timely construction
of improvements needed for Lessee to move in and conduct its business at the new
premises on or before January 10, 2001. Lessee's prompt entry into said new
lease is a material inducement to Lessor's agreeing to make the payments to
Lessee provided for herein. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a copy of said new
lease fully executed by Lessee and the new landlord within three (3) business
days after the execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 3.b) above,
no payment of any amounts in Section 3.b) shall be due prior to actual delivery
of a copy of the fully executed new lease as just mentioned. Further,
notwithstanding Section 3.b) above: (i) if the fully executed copy of the new
lease is not delivered within ten (10) days after execution of this Agreement,
no payment under Section 3.b)(i)(1) shall ever be made or required; and (ii) in
addition, if the fully executed copy of the new lease is not delivered by
November 10, 2000, no payment under Section 3.b)(i)(2) shall ever be made or
required; and (iii) in addition, if the fully executed copy of the new lease is
not delivered by January 10, 2001, then no payment under Section 3.b)(i)(3)
shall ever be made or required.
d) Stipulated Judgment and Notice of Settlement. Concurrently herewith,
Lessee and its counsel shall execute and deliver a stipulation for entry of
judgment (which shall constitute a part of this Agreement for all purposes),
with an order pursuant thereto awarding immediate possession to Lessor, to be
issuable immediately upon Lessor's ex parte application and declaration so as to
allow Lessor to immediately physically evict Lessee and any other persons or
entities in possession (other than New Tenant) from the entire Premises, all in
form attached as Exhibit X. Xxxxxx agrees not to file the Stipulation/Order with
the Court unless and until a "Trigger Event" as described therein occurs (at or
after which time Lessor may file the Stipulation/Order with the Court
unilaterally at any time in its sole and absolute discretion). Concurrently
herewith, Lessee and its counsel shall also execute and deliver a Joint Notice
of Settlement in form attached as Exhibit F, which Lessor shall cause to be
promptly counter-executed and filed with the Court.
e) Tenant Estoppels. On or within one business day before January 10,
2001 (or such later date as Lessee actually fully surrenders and vacates the
Premises), inclusive, Lessee shall cause to be executed and delivered to Lessor
an estoppel certificate in the form attached as Exhibit D certifying as of the
date so delivered that no Breach, Default , misrepresentations, breach, or
default by Lessee (or to Lessee's knowledge after due inquiry, by Lessor) exists
under the Lease or this Agreement (or alternatively, if any of the same do
exist, the certificate shall specify the same).
f) No Limitation of Remedies. Lessor and Lessee each shall have all
rights and remedies for any Breach, breach, Default or default under the Lease
(as amended hereby) and/or this Agreement (including, without limitation, any
other rights to collect or to increase rents, costs, interest, taxes, late
charges, inducement recapture, attorneys fees and/or other sums, any rights to
evict Lessee and/or any rights to reduce or offset payments to Lessee) which may
be provided by the Lease, applicable law, principles of equity, agreement or
otherwise and in particular, without limitation, the provisions herein
acknowledging offset rights and/or providing for a stipulated judgment or other
specified rights or remedies shall not be construed as any limitation on
Lessor's or Lessee's other rights or remedies in such circumstances (except the
limitations on Lessee's rights to oppose as specified in the Stipulation/Order).
It is acknowledged that the fact that Lessee may actually be evicted
pursuant to the above-referenced stipulated judgment shall not in and of itself
result in a forfeiture of any claim for payment of the amounts in Section 3.b)
above nor of any other claim which may exist in Lessee's favor against Lessor
(or in Lessor's favor against Lessee); provided, however, any claims by or
amounts owed to Lessee shall still be subject to any applicable Lessor's
reduction and/or offset rights, Per Diem Reductions, damages and costs, along
with a further reduction and/or offset of any such claims or payments to Lessee
in order to give credit to Lessor for all Rents or other amounts foregone by
Lessor or unpaid by Lessee as a result of early termination of the Lease, the
said eviction or otherwise (including, without limitation, dollar for dollar
credit to Lessor for Rents for all phases that would have been due if Lessee had
remained in possession in compliance herewith in accordance with the phased
surrender schedule herein). Further, any such claims by Lessee shall and must be
asserted and determined separately from any hearing on any ex parte application
by Lessor pursuant to the stipulation for entry of judgment herein and the fact
that any such claims by Lessee may exist or the fact that any payments may be
owed or alleged to be owed to Lessee shall in no event constitute any excuse for
late surrender of space or late payment of Rents, nor constitute any defense to
any ex parte application by Lessor under the stipulation for entry of judgment
herein.
4. DISMISSAL OF THE UNLAWFUL DETAINER ACTION: Provided that Defendant fully
complies with this Agreement, within ten (10) business days after the full and
timely surrender and vacation of the entire Premises in accordance herewith
occurs, Plaintiff shall cause to be executed and filed in the Unlawful Detainer
Action, a form Request for Dismissal with prejudice of the entire Unlawful
Detainer Action. As a condition precedent to Plaintiff's obligations in this
Section, Defendant shall also cause to be dismissed with prejudice any and all
counter-claims/cross-actions against Lessor and its Related Persons in form and
content reasonably acceptable to Lessor. The parties shall each bear their own
costs and attorneys' fees with respect to the Unlawful Detainer Action. The
parties and their attorneys shall, in all respects, cooperate to effectuate the
dismissal of the Unlawful Detainer Action, as needed, including taking off
calendar any and all pending motions.

against the parties by governmental agencies for environmental clean-up under
applicable hazardous materials laws, which (in the case of any of (i) or (ii))

1. PARTIES: This Stipulation for Entry of Judgment (hereinafter, the
"Stipulation") is made and entered into by and between ISCO-IRVINE NORTH, LTD.,
a California limited liability partnership ("ISCO"), and XXXXXX XXXXX
(collectively, ISCO and Xxxxx are referred to hereinafter as "Plaintiff" or
"Lessor"), and XXXX BIOMEDICAL, INC., a California corporation ("Defendant" or
"Lessee").
2. RECITALS: This Stipulation is made with reference to the following
facts:
a) Certain disputes and controversies have arisen between the parties
hereto.
b) Such disputes and controversies include, but are not limited to, the
claims, demands, and cause or causes of action set forth by the parties and/or
related persons and entities hereto in the within action filed in the Orange
County Superior Court entitled ISCO Irvine North, Ltd., et al., x. Xxxx
Biomedical, Inc., et al. (hereinafter, the "Unlawful Detainer Action"), bearing
Case No. 00CC06504, and concerning the possession of the real property commonly
known and located at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 ("Premises").
c) In order to resolve the Unlawful Detainer Action, the Parties, upon
advice of counsel, have entered into a Lease Amendment, Settlement Agreement and
Mutual Release ("Settlement Agreement") relating to the Lease of the Premises
described therein ("Lease"). In the event of any "Trigger Event" defined and
described in paragraph "3" below, this Stipulation shall govern the rights and
obligations of the Parties concerning the immediate possession of the Premises.
In consideration of the terms, covenants, promises, representations and
conditions contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which the parties hereby acknowledge, the
Parties hereto, and each of them, hereby represent and agree as follows:
3. STIPULATION FOR ENTRY OF JUDGMENT: The Parties hereby incorporate by
reference the Settlement Agreement as though fully set forth herein. In the
event that any one or more of the following events occurs (collectively,
"Trigger Events"): (A) Defendant fails or refuses to fully and timely surrender
and vacate all or any portion of the Premises when and as required by Section 3
a)(iii) or 3 a)(iv) of the Settlement Agreement (any such failure or refusal is
referred to as a "Late Surrender") or (B) Defendant fails or refuses to fully
and timely pay all or any portion of the Base Rent and/or other Rent or charges
when due under the Lease (any such failure or refusal is referred to as a "Late
Rent Payment"), IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the Parties that
Plaintiff shall have the right to immediately apply to the Court in this
Unlawful Detainer Action, on an ex parte basis upon 24-hour notice to Defendant,
for entry of judgment in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendant and all
parties in possession (other than any New Tenant as specified by Plaintiff), in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and for the immediate issuance of a writ
of possession for the Premises, and that such judgment and writ shall be
thereupon immediately awarded provided that such ex parte application is
accompanied by a declaration stating that a Trigger Event has occurred (subject
only to Defendant's limited right to oppose Plaintiff's application if
Plaintiff's application is based on certain (but not all) Trigger Events, but
only to the extent expressly allowed by paragraph "6" below, which opposition,
if applicable, may be considered by the Court solely for the purpose of
determining whether the alleged Trigger Event in fact occurred, in which case,
unless the Court actually determines that no Trigger Event occurred, then
Plaintiff and Defendant hereby agree that the said judgment and writ shall be
immediately awarded to Plaintiff notwithstanding any such opposition by
Defendant). Plaintiff's application for entry of judgment may be made by
declaration.
4. CURE PERIODS FOR LATE SURRENDER OF PARTICULAR PHASES OR FOR LATE RENT
PAYMENT. If, and only if, the Trigger Event specified in Plaintiff's ex parte
application is NOT a Late Surrender with respect to Phase III or Phase IV or
Phase V of the Premises (as described and referred to in Section 3.a)(iii) of
the Settlement Agreement), then Plaintiff's ex parte application hereunder may
be made only after three (3) calendar days have passed (after the date any
Plaintiff has given written notice to Defendant that a Trigger Event has
occurred) without Defendant having fully cured such failure or refusal
constituting the applicable Trigger Event (by Defendant actually having
surrendered and vacated the relevant portion(s) of the Premises as so required
in the case of a Late Surrender of Phase I or Phase II, or by Defendant actually
having fully paid all such amounts as so required in the case of a Late Rent
Payment). If the Trigger Event specified in Plaintiff's ex parte application IS
a Late Surrender with respect to Phase III or Phase IV or Phase V of the
Premises (as described and referred to in Section 3.a)(iii) of the Settlement
Agreement) (i.e., if full surrender and vacation has not occurred by January 10,
2001), then Plaintiff's ex parte application hereunder may be made only after
January 15, 2001 (without any notice being required that a Trigger Event
occurred and without any further cure period).
5. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Plaintiff and Defendant have had the opportunity to
be fully advised by counsel as to the full contents, meaning and significance of
this Stipulation, and understand its terms and conditions.
6. LIMITATION ON DEFENDANT'S RIGHT TO OPPOSE. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or elsewhere, including, without limitation, any document,
rule, statute, law or otherwise, Defendant shall have no right whatsoever to
oppose or contest any ex parte application of Plaintiff brought hereunder or the
issuance of judgment in accordance herewith except as follows: If, and only if,
the Trigger Event specified in Plaintiff's ex parte application is NOT a Late
Surrender with respect to Phase III or Phase IV or Phase V of the Premises (as
described and referred to in Section 3.a)(iii) of the Settlement Agreement),
then (without any delay of the hearing) Defendant may introduce evidence at the
hearing showing that the alleged Trigger Event in fact did not occur. However,
no other issue, matter, excuse, claim, offset, defense, allegation or opposition
whatsoever shall be permitted at the hearing nor constitute any defense to or
impairment of Plaintiff's right to immediate issuance of the attached judgment.
Further, even this limited right to oppose shall be inapplicable to any ex parte
application by Plaintiff if the Trigger Event alleged therein is with respect to
any Late Surrender of Phase III or Phase IV or Phase V of the Premises. For
purposes of clarification, the limitations in this paragraph "6" are not
intended to apply and shall not apply to Defendant's (or Plaintiff's) express
right to oppose the matters specified in parts "(3)" and/or "(4)" of the
attached form of judgment (which matters shall only be raised or heard
separately from the said hearing on Plaintiff's application brought hereunder
and only at a later date than the said hearing).
7. NO INJUNCTION. Defendant waives its right to bring any action to enjoin
Plaintiff's enforcement of a judgment entered pursuant to paragraph 3 above.
8. EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Stipulation may be executed in
counterparts, by fax or otherwise, and when each party has signed and delivered
at least one such counterpart, each counterpart shall be deemed an original, and
when taken together with other signed counterparts, shall constitute one
Stipulation, which shall be binding upon and effective as to all parties.
9. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. This Stipulation can only be modified or waived
by a written agreement executed by the Parties hereto. No breach of any
provision herein can be waived except in writing, and waiver of any one breach
shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other breach of the same or
other provisions hereto.
10. AUTHORITY TO SIGN/PERFORM. Any person signing this Stipulation on
behalf of any entity represents and warrants that he or she is authorized by
that entity to sign this Stipulation on its behalf.
