ARTICLE 1. TERM AND POSSESSION
1.1 Term. The Term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date and
shall expire on the last day of the calendar month in which the tenth
anniversary of the Commencement Date occurs. The Commencement Date of this Lease
will be the earlier of: (i) the date that Tenant commences its business
operations in the Premises, or (ii) 90 days after the Delivery Date. The
anticipated Delivery Date is March 1, 2000. If Landlord fails to deliver the
Premises, with demising walls in place and those items in Exhibit C to be
completed prior to the Delivery Date complete, to Tenant on or before the
Delivery Date, the Commencement Date shall be delayed two days for each day past
the Delivery Date the Premises notwithstanding that Tenant has commenced
business operations in the Premises. Upon request of either party after the Term
has commenced, Landlord and Tenant shall jointly execute a memorandum confirming
the Commencement Date.
1.2 Surrender. Upon the termination or expiration of this Lease or upon the
termination of Tenant's right of possession, whether by lapse of time or
otherwise, Tenant shall at once surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord
and remove Tenant's property as provided in this Lease.
1.3 Holdover. Tenant shall have no right to hold over after the expiration of
the Term of this Lease without Landlord's consent. If, with Landlord's consent,
Tenant holds over after the expiration of this Lease, Tenant shall become a
tenant from month to month only, upon all of the terms of this Lease except that
the amount of the Base Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to 150% of the
Base Rent in effect immediately prior to the expiration.
1.4 0ption to Renew.
(a) Renewal. Provided that no material, uncured Event of Default by Tenant
exists at the time of Tenant's exercise of the option or at the commencement of
a Renewal Term, and no circumstance exists which, if continued uncured, will,
with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both, constitute a material
Event of Default, then Tenant shall have, and is hereby granted, the option to
extend the Initial Term for the additional periods set forth in Basic Lease
Provisions paragraph I above (each, a "Renewal Term"). Except as set forth
below, Tenant's occupancy of the Premises during the Renewal Term shall be
governed by all of the terms, conditions, covenants and provisions of the Lease
except that Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Lease
after the expiration of the final Renewal Term. If Tenant desires to exercise
its option to extend the Term, it must give Landlord notice in writing ("Option
Notice") of its intent to do so at least nine (9), but no more than twelve (12),
months prior to the expiration of the then-current Term or Renewal Term.
(b) Annual Base Rent During the Renewal Term.
(i) The Base Rent during each Renewal Term will be the "then fair
market rental value of the Premises" as defined below, but not less than the
Base Rent payable in the last year of the preceding Term (or Renewal Term, as
the case may be). Landlord and Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after Landlord
receives the Option Notice within which to agree on the
4
Annual Base Rent for the Renewal Term based upon the then fair market rental
value of the Premises. If the parties agree on the Base Rent for the Renewal
Term within thirty (30) days, they shall amend this Lease by stating the Base
Rent for the Renewal Term.
(ii) If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Base Rent for
the Renewal Term within the thirty (30) day period, then the "then fair market
value of the Premises" shall be determined in accordance with the below.
(iii) The "then fair market rental value of the Premises" means the
annual per square foot amount that a willing, comparable Tenant would pay and a
willing, comparable Landlord would accept at arm's length for a new five (5)
year lease (for non-renewable and nonexpansion space, unless the renewal or
expansion are pursuant to a comparable definition of fair market rental value)
for delivery on or about the applicable delivery or effective date, for
comparable non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-renewal space in the Building. The
value of Tenant's trade fixtures and equipment and Tenant Improvements
constructed and paid for by Tenant shall not be factored into the fair market
value determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the then fair market rental
value of the Premises for the Renewal Tenn will not be less than the Base Rent
payable during the last year of the preceding Term.
(iv) Within seven (7) days after the expiration of the thirty (30)
day period set forth above, Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint a real estate
appraiser with at least five full years full-time commercial appraisal
experience in the area in which the Premises are located to appraise the then
fair market rental value of the Premises. If either the Landlord or the Tenant
does not appoint an appraiser within ten days after the other has given notice
of the name of its appraiser, the single appraiser appointed shall be the sole
appraiser and shall set the then fair market rental value of the Premises. If
two appraisers are appointed pursuant to this paragraph, they shall meet
promptly and attempt to set the then fair market rental value of the Premises.
If they are unable to agree within the thirty (30) days after the second
appraiser has been appointed, they shall attempt to elect a third appraiser
meeting the qualifications stated in this paragraph within ten (10) days after
the last day the two appraisers are given to set the then fair market rental
value of the Premises. If they are unable to agree on the third appraiser,
either the Landlord or Tenant may petition the presiding civil court judge of
the Maricopa County Superior Court for the selection of a third appraiser who
meets the qualifications stated in this paragraph. Within thirty (30) days after
the selection of the third appraiser, a majority of the appraisers shall set the
then fair market rental value of the Premises. If a majority of the appraisers
are unable to set the then fair market rental value of the Premises within
thirty (30) days after selection of the third appraiser, the three appraisals
shall be averaged and the average shall be the then fair market rental value of
the Premises. Landlord and Tenant shall split equally the cost of appointing the
appraisers and of paying the appraiser's fees.
ARTICLE 2. RENT
2.1 Base Rent. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord during the Term of this Lease at the office of Landlord or at such
other place as Landlord may designate, without notice, demand, deduction, or
set-off, Base Rent in the applicable amounts as set forth in Basic Lease
Provisions paragraph H (or, for Renewal Terms,
5
as determined under Article 1.4 above), subject to adjustments as provided in
Section 2.2, in advance on the first day of each calendar month. If the Rent
Commencement Date does not occur on the first day of a calendar month, Tenant
shall pay rent on the Rent Commencement Date for the actual days of the
fractional month on a pro rata basis.
2.2 Adjustments. On or before the Commencement Date, the Base Rent and all
other figures hereunder calculated on the basis of square footage, including the
Abatement Period, shall be adjusted based on the actual rentable square feet of
space in the Premises as determined by the approved plans and specifications,
provided that the "common area factor" or "load factor, shall not exceed 12% and
the useable area of the Premises shall, in addition to the load factor, be
subject to a stipulated 3% riser load factor. All references to "rentable" or
"useable" square feet shall be deemed measured in accordance with American
National Standard Z65.1-1996, as published by BOMA International, and the
calculations of the usable square footage of the Premises shall be subject to
verification by Tenant (but the rentable square footage shall be determined as
set forth in this section).
2.3 Late Charges. Any amount due from Tenant to Landlord which is not paid
within five (5) days after the date on which it is due shall bear interest at
four percent (4%) in excess of the prime rate as reported from time to time in
the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal, from the due date until
paid, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by
Tenant under this Lease.
2.4 Nature of Payments. All sums required to be paid by Tenant under this
Lease, whether or not so designated, are rent.
ARTICLE 3. SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrently with the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord the sum set forth in Basic Lease Provisions Paragraph E (the "Security
Deposit"), as security for the full and faithful performance of this Lease. If
Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, Landlord may apply
all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any sum in default,
or for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend or become
obligated to spend by reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for
any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's
default. Application of the Security Deposit shall not constitute a cure of the
default by Tenant to which the application relates unless Tenant timely
replenishes the Security Deposit as set forth in the following sentence. If any
portion of the Security Deposit is so applied, Tenant shall, within five days
after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount
sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Landlord
shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general
funds, and Tenant shall be entitled to interest on the deposit at the rate of
4.5% per annum. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of
this Lease to be performed by Tenant, the Security Deposit or any balance
thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last
assignee of Tenant's interest) promptly following the expiration of the Term.
6

----------------------
(a) Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause, or permit or allow any of
Tenant's employees, agents, customers, visitors, invitees, licensees,
contractors, assignees, or subtenants (collectively, "Tenant's Parties") to
cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored,
manufactured, generated, blended, handled, recycled, treated, disposed or used
on, under or about the Premises, the Building, the common facilities, or the
Project, except for (i) materials contained in the equipment and computer room
facilities for equipment such as batteries, cooling systems, and diesel
generators, or (ii) routine office and janitorial supplies in usual and
customary quantities, all stored, used, and disposed of in accordance with
applicable Environmental Laws. As used herein, "Hazardous Materials" means any
chemical, substance, material, controlled substance, object, condition, waste,
living organism or combination thereof which is or may be hazardous to human
health or safety or to the environment due to its radioactivity, ignitability,
corrosivity, reactivity, explosivity, toxicity, carcinogenicity, mutagenicity,

5.2 Rental Taxes. Tenant shall, simultaneously with the payment of any sums
required to be paid under this Lease as rent, additional rent, or otherwise, pay
Landlord for any sales, use, rental, transaction privilege, or other excise tax
imposed or levied on, or measured by, the amount paid. If any tax, surcharge or
regulatory fee is imposed by any governmental authority upon or with respect to
parking, parking fees paid or received, parking spaces, or vehicles parking in
the parking spaces in the common facilities, Tenant shall pay the same as
additional rent hereunder with the monthly installments of Base Rent or as
otherwise required from time to time by Landlord.
ARTICLE 6. PARKING AND COMMON USE AREAS
6.1 Common Facilities. All parking areas, access roads, driveways, pedestrian
sidewalks and ramps, landscaped areas, drainage facilities, exterior lighting,
signs, courtyards, corridors, elevators, entryways, public restrooms, risers,
utility vaults or closets, and other areas and improvements (all of which are
referred to as "common facilities" or "common areas") provided by Landlord for
the general use in common of tenants, their officers, agents, employees,
customers and other invitees shall at all times be subject to the exclusive
control and management of Landlord and Landlord shall have the right from time
to time to modify, enlarge, or eliminate the same so long as such modification,
enlargement, or reduction does not materially, adversely affect access to or the
use of the Premises for Tenant's business. Tenant shall, at all times, have
unrestricted access to the Premises, and Landlord shall endeavor to have at
least one elevator operational at all times. Landlord shall have the right from
time to time to establish, modify and enforce reasonable rules and regulations
with respect to the common areas as set forth in section 23.2 below. Tenant's
right to use the Premises includes the non-exclusive right to use the common
facilities.
6.2 Parking. Tenant shall be entitled to the exclusive use of the number and
type of parking space(s) in the Project as set forth in Basic Lease Provisions
paragraph Q. No storage of vehicles or parking for more than twenty-four (24)
hours is allowed without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that Landlord is not liable for damage, loss or theft of property or
injury to persons in, upon or about the parking area from any cause whatsoever
except Landlord's gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Landlord shall
have the right to establish, and from time to time change (including relocating
reserved covered parking spaces), alter and amend, and to enforce against all
users of the parking area such reasonable requirements
10
and restrictions as Landlord deems necessary and advisable for the proper
operation and maintenance of the parking area. Tenant and Tenant's Parties shall
be entitled to park in Tenant's parking spaces in the Project but, unless Tenant
and Tenant's Parties participate in a sticker or vehicle tag program, Landlord
shall have no obligation to enforce the exclusivity of Tenant's parking or to
ensure that non-Tenant parties do not park in Tenant's spaces. In addition to
the above referenced parking spaces, Landlord will obtain for Tenant 27 parking
spaces in a parking lot adjacent to the Project ("Adjacent Lot') at $60.00 per
space per month. The foregoing spaces shall be on a month to month basis,
subject to all terms, conditions, rules, and regulations imposed by the owners
or operators of the Adjacent Lot, and Landlord shall not be liable for
unavailability of spaces, any increase in price of the spaces, or damage, loss,
or theft of property or injury to persons in, upon, or about the Adjacent Lot.
If spaces become unavailable in the Adjacent Lot, Landlord will use good faith
efforts to assist Tenant in obtaining additional parking in the vicinity of the
Building.

profits taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and
succession taxes, estate taxes, federal and state income taxes); service and
maintenance contracts; signage; landscaping; and a management fee not exceeding
10% of the other Operating Costs. The cost of capital improvements incurred by
Landlord to comply with changes after the date of this Lease in the Americans
with Disabilities Act or other Law in the common areas shall be amortized over
its useful life and the amortization amount included in Operating Costs.
Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to keep Operating Costs at reasonable
amounts while maintaining a high quality project. Operating Costs shall not

walls; repairs to the extent covered by warranty, indemnity agreements, surety
bonds, or actual insurance proceeds or insurance proceeds that would have been
received had Landlord maintained the insurance required by this Lease, whichever
is greater; alterations

benefits which are not offered to Tenant, or for which Tenant is charged
directly but which are provided to another tenant or occupant of the Project;

terms and conditions of any lease, contract or other obligation; costs incurred
due to the violation or alleged violation by the Project of any Law which is in
effect on the date of this Lease; costs incurred due to the violation or alleged

separately metered or contracted for and paid for by Tenant directly, or to the
extent serving any portions of the Project except the common areas; expenses for
which Landlord has, or will be required to be reimbursed from insurance, another
tenant (other than pursuant to an operating expense clause similar to this
Section) or another source; depreciation, amortization and other non-cash items;
ground rents; financing costs, including principal, interest, points, fees,
mortgage or similar taxes and other costs of obtaining and maintaining the s
ame, whether for the Project or for any equipment or other items for or used in
connection with the Project; Landlord's general overhead; capital improvements,
except as noted above; costs incurred for the repair of latent defects in the
Building; art and objects of art; common area decorations; tools and equipment
except to the extent used solely for the Building; costs of obtaining
reductions, referrals or abatements of taxes except to the extent of the savings
achieved; political contributions; and costs of marketing space in the Building,
leasing commissions, attorneys' fees, space planning costs, and other costs and
expenses incurred in connection with leasing of any portion of the Project. The
Operating Costs for the calendar year 2000 are estimated to be $3.09 per
rentable square foot. Commencing after the first full calendar year of the Term,
on the first day of each month Tenant shall pay a monthly advance charge on
account of Tenant's pro rata share of the Operating Costs. The amount of the
monthly charge shall be established by Landlord and may be adjusted from time to
time by Landlord to reflect the actual cost. Within 90 days after the end of
each fiscal year as established by Landlord, Landlord shall provide to Tenant a
reasonably detailed summary of the actual Operating Costs, including back-up
materials as reasonably requested by Tenant, showing Tenant's actual share and
the amount by which Tenant has overpaid or underpaid (the "Statement"). Any
overpayment shall be credited to Tenant's Operating Costs account no later than
the beginning of the next monthly period, except that at the end of the Term,
including any exercised Renewal Option, any overpayment shall be refunded to
Tenant. Any deficiency shall be payable within ten business days after receipt
of the Statement. Tenant may audit, inspect, or review Landlord's books and
records concerning Operating Costs for the two years preceding the year in which
the audit takes place. Tenant shall give Landlord notice within 90 days after
receipt of the Statement that Tenant wishes to audit Landlord's books and
records concerning Operating Costs at Landlord's office where such books and
records are maintained. Tenant may not audit more frequently than one time per
year. The audit shall be conducted by a qualified person within 30 days after
the notice from Tenant to Landlord. If Tenant's audit determines that an error
has been made, Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to agree upon the matter,
failing which such matter shall be submitted to an independent certified public
accountant selected by Landlord with Tenant's approval, for a determination
which will be conclusive and binding upon Landlord and Tenant.
12
All costs incurred by Tenant for Tenant's audit shall be paid for by Tenant
unless an error is determined to exist pursuant to the procedure outlined above
of more than five percent (5%) of the Operating Costs, in which event Landlord
shall reimburse Tenant for such costs. If it is determined that any portion of
the Operating Costs were not properly chargeable to Tenant, then Landlord shall
promptly credit or refund, at Tenant's option, the appropriate sum to Tenant,
and the Operating Costs payment to be made by Tenant shall be adjusted, if
required.
7.2 Allocation. Tenant's pro rata share of the Operating Costs shall be the
proportion that the rentable area of the Premises bears to the total rentable
area of the Building. Landlord's allocation methodology shall be consistent
throughout the Lease Term. The Operating Costs for the fiscal year in which this
Lease commences or terminates shall be apportioned so that Tenant shall not be
responsible for costs that relate to periods prior to or subsequent to the Term
of this Lease except any period of holding over.
7.3 Gross-up. The Operating Costs shall be adjusted to reflect level of
occupancy such that the cost of services provided to tenants, if any, which are
not provided to vacant space or are provided to vacant space to a reduced
degree, are distributed among those tenants enjoying the services. Only those
component expenses that are affected by variations in occupancy levels shall be
grossed up. The adjustment shall be made based upon generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied to project costs at a 95% occupancy
level whenever the actual occupancy rate is less than 95%. In no event shall the
adjustment result in reimbursement to Landlord of an amount in excess of actual
costs incurred by Landlord.
ARTICLE 8. CONSTRUCTION
8.1 Delivery. If delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant is delayed
beyond the anticipated Delivery Date because of a delay in the completion of
construction of the Premises by Landlord, then this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damage
occasioned by the delay, and the Delivery Date shall be changed to the date
actual delivery of possession to Tenant is effected, with the corresponding
change in the Commencement Date as set forth in Section 2.1; provided, however,
that if Landlord has not delivered the Premises to Tenant on or before May 21,
2000, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord
given before the earlier of (i) delivery of the Premises, or (ii) June 21, 2000.
8.2 Condition. Landlord, at Landlord's sole cost and expense shall construct in
a thoroughly first class, professional and workmanlike manner and in accordance
with all applicable Laws, the Code and the other provisions of this Lease, the
work ("Landlord's Work") described in Part I of Exhibit C. Landlord's Work shall
be completed on or before June 9, 2000, or such specific earlier date set forth
in Part I of Exhibit C. Landlord has no obligation to design or construct
improvements or to make alterations in the Premises except as specifically set
forth in Part I of Exhibit C as Landlord's Work. Any changes in Exhibit C shall
be subject to approval by both Landlord and Tenant, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any defects in the alterations or
additions constructed by Landlord in accordance with Exhibit C (except for
latent defects) shall automatically be waived unless specified in a written
punchlist delivered to Landlord within forty-five (45) days after the
Commencement Date.
13
Landlord shall promptly correct all defects set forth in the punchlist. Landlord
shall provide Tenant with a shell certificate of occupancy or the equivalent on
or before June 9, 2000. If Landlord has not completed Landlord's Work on or
before June 9, 2000, the Rent Commencement Date shall be delayed by two (2) days
for each day past June 9, 2000 that Landlord's Work is not completed, and if
Landlord has not completed Landlord's Work on or before June 24, 2000, the Rent
Commencement Date shall be delayed by three (3 )) days for each day past June
24, 2000, that Landlord's Work is not completed. If Landlord's Work is not
completed by July 9, 2000, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by notice to
Landlord.
8.3 Costs of Construction. Tenant shall pay all costs of designing, installing,
and constructing Tenant's Work, as defined below (but not Landlord's Work).
8.4 Tenant's Work. Prior to the Commencement Date, commencing on the date this
Lease is fully executed, Landlord shall permit Tenant and Tenant's
representatives to enter the Premises so that Tenant may do such work as may be
required by Tenant make the Premises ready for Tenant's use and occupancy
(excluding Landlord's Work) ("Tenant's Work", as generally outlined in Exhibit
C. Such permission shall be subject to all the terms of this Lease except
Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent and Operating Costs. Tenant acknowledges
and agrees that Landlord is not liable in any way for any injury, loss, or
damage which may occur to Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees, or
invitees or to Tenant's Work and installations made in the Premises, except
injury, loss or damage arising from Landlord's negligence or intentional acts,
all of the same being at Tenant's sole risk. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord
will be conducting Landlord's Work in the Premises and other work in the Project
concurrently with Tenant's Work, and Tenant and Landlord each agrees to
reasonably cooperate with the other in order to avoid interference with the
other party's construction activities. Tenant shall have the right to perform
the initial Tenant's Work and any other alterations or installations 24 hours
per day, seven days per week, 365 days per year from the date of this Lease
throughout the Term, and shall have reasonable access to the parking areas,
roof, loading dock and other common areas. Landlord shall not receive any profit
from but may charge (pass through) reasonable fees for inspection of Tenant's
Work, or any other alterations performed by Tenant, made in order to assure that
such work was performed in accordance with approved plans and specifications.
Landlord shall provide reasonable utilities for Tenant's use during Tenant's
construction at no cost to Tenant.
8.5 Alterations and Approval. After delivery of the Premises, Tenant shall
commence construction of Tenant's Work, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, by
delivering to Landlord plans and specifications (the "Design Plans") showing
Tenant's Work, for Landlord's approval and consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except that Landlord reserves the
right to withhold consent in Landlord's sole discretion for Tenant's Work
adversely affecting the structure, safety, efficiency, or security of the
Building in which the Premises is located, the systems ("Systems") and equipment
("Equipment") which affect the Premises and other space in the Building, or the
appearance of the Premises from any common or public areas. To the extent of
Tenant's initial Work, the Design Plans shall include all improvements
contemplated under this Article 8, including, without limitation, generators,
antennae or satellite dishes, HVAC, conduits, cabling, fibre optics, and all
other matters which Landlord is entitled to approve. At the time Tenant submits
the Design Plans to Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord with notice of
whether Tenant's Work will involve or affect any
14
Hazardous Materials, whether such materials are customary and usual based on
standard industry practices, and all other reasonable details relating thereto.
Landlord will promptly review the Design Plans and any changes thereto as well
as any plans and specifications for other alterations to be performed by Tenant
during the Term (the "Other Plans"), making reasonable efforts to complete
Landlord's review within five (5) business days after Landlord's receipt of the
initial Design Plans or the Other Plans, and will give Tenant notice detailing
Landlord's reasonable objections thereto, if any. If Landlord has not given
notice to Tenant within the five (5) business day period provided that Landlord
approves or objects to the Design Plans or Other Plans, then Tenant may give
notice to Landlord and if Landlord does not respond to the Design Plans or Other
Plans with objections or approval within three (3) business days thereafter,
Landlord will be deemed to have approved the Design Plans or Other Plans. Within
ten (10) business days after receipt by Tenant of Landlord's objections to the
Design Plans or Other Plans (including omissions therefrom) Tenant shall revise
and resubmit the Design Plans or Other Plans for Landlord's review. If,
notwithstanding diligent, good faith efforts on the part of the parties to
arrive at mutually acceptable Design Plans, the parties are unable to do so on
or before the date which is 30 days after the date on which the Design Plans are
submitted by Tenant to Landlord, then either party may terminate this Lease by
notice to the other. The final Design Plans approved by Tenant and Landlord are
the "Final Plans". Landlord shall, in the notice given to Tenant approving the
Final Plans or any Other Plans, notify Tenant which of the improvements,
fixtures and equipment must be removed at the end of the Term, which of the
improvements, fixtures and equipment may (but do not have to) be removed at the
end of the Term, and which of the improvements, fixtures and equipment shall not
be removed at the end of the Term. In any event, notwithstanding the foregoing,
Tenant shall have the right to elect not to remove conduit, cabling, piping,
electrical conductors or standard office improvements, and Tenant shall have the
right to remove any or all of its equipment, including, without limitation,
generators, HVAC, batteries, and UPS systems, at any time during the Term.
8.6 Approval Conditions. Landlord reserves the right to impose reasonable
requirements as a condition of such consent or otherwise in connection with
Tenant's Work, including requirements that Tenant: (i) submit for Landlord's
information the names, addresses and background information concerning all of
the major architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors and suppliers
Tenant proposes to use, (ii) obtain and post permits, (iii) submit conditional
and final lien waivers in compliance with Arizona law for all architects,
engineers, contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers performing Tenant's Work,
(iv) permit Landlord or its representatives, upon reasonable notice, to inspect

for all work affecting the Building fire detection system, and (vi) comply with
such other reasonable requirements as Landlord may impose concerning the manner
and times in which Tenant's Work shall be done so as to facilitate coordination
of Landlord's and Tenant's Work and work being performed by or on behalf of
other tenants. Landlord reserves the right to reasonably approve and review the
work of the architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers
who will design and perform Tenant's Work and supply materials affecting the
operation of Building Systems and Equipment, floor slabs or other load-bearing
structural elements so as to assure itself that the Work is being performed in
accordance with approved plans and specifications. Within 30 days after
completion of Tenant's Work, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a copy of the
complete construction drawings for the build-out (as-built drawings) of the
Premises.
15
8.7 Performance of Tenant's Work. Tenant shall use Tenant's commercially
reasonable efforts not to unreasonably disrupt other tenants of the Building
during the build-out and installation of Tenant's Work. Tenant's Work shall be
performed: (i) in a thoroughly first class, professional and workmanlike manner,
(ii) only with materials that are new, high quality, and free of material
defects, (iii) strictly in accordance with the Final Plans approved by Landlord,
(iv) so as not to adversely affect the Systems and Equipment or the structure of
the Building or the Project, (v) diligently to completion and so as to avoid any
unreasonable disturbance, disruption or inconvenience to other tenants and the
operation of the Building, (vi) in compliance with all applicable Laws, the
Code, and other provisions of this Lease, and (vii) such other reasonable
requirements as Landlord may impose concerning the manner and times in which
Tenant's Work shall be done so as to facilitate coordination of Landlord's and
Tenant's Work and work being performed by or on behalf of other tenants. If
Tenant fails to perform Tenant's Work as required herein or the materials
supplied fail to comply herewith or with the specifications approved by
Landlord, and Tenant fails to cure such failure within 10 business days after
notice by Landlord (except notice shall not be required in emergencies),
Landlord shall have the right to stop Tenant's Work until such failure is cured
(which shall not be in limitation of Landlord's other remedies). Landlord shall
cooperate with Tenant's Work and the exercise of any rights granted to Tenant in
this Lease.
8.8 Additional Provisions. Tenant may at Tenant's sole cost at anytime during
the Term at no additional charge, with prior written notice to Landlord and
Landlord's written permission, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed, install certain heating, air conditioning, and
ventilation units on the roof of the Building in the areas designated on Exhibit
E attached hereto, with additional rooftop area, if any is requested by Tenant,
subject to availability. During the term of this Lease, Tenant may add HVAC
capacity or expand existing HVAC, including supply and return piping and drains
and ducts. Landlord's prior written approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, shall be obtained as to location,
machinery, and plans and specifications. Subject to Exhibit C, Tenant may

located in the Premises. At any time during the Term, Tenant may at Tenant's
expense, and subject to Landlord's prior approval (not to be unreasonably
conditioned, withheld, or delayed) of location, screening, design, and
equipment, install coolant lines to support air conditioning systems in the
Premises or elsewhere serving the Premises and install and operate separate and
independent chillers or other cooling system. All such installation shall be
done in compliance with the provisions of this Article 8 and Tenant shall use
all due care and shall not injure the roof of the Building in such installation.
Subject to Landlord's prior approval of plans and specifications therefor, which

power into such systems. Tenant may, at any time during the Term, or (vi) tie
into Building grounding systems.
8.9 Provisions Concerning Installations on and Access to Roof The weight and
size of any installations on the roof of the Building are subject to Landlord's
approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. All costs of installation and maintenance of installations on the roof

that does not affect coverage or protection afforded by any roof warranty or
maintenance contract (unless Tenant negotiates binding revisions to such
warranty or contract at no additional cost to Landlord); (ii) not result in any
penetration of the roof membrane, except for the installation of conduit and
pipes as approved by Landlord in connection with Landlord's approval of the

powered, and repaired at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Landlord shall be
entitled to establish reasonable restrictions on roof access as necessary to
protect coverage or protection afforded by any roof warranty or maintenance
contract, provided that Tenant shall always have a way to obtain immediate
access for repair of malfunctioning equipment. Subject to availability of
rooftop space, Landlord agrees to not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay
its consent to the placement of rooftop antenna, satellite dishes and other
telecommunications equipment at any time during the Term. Subject to all other
provisions of this Article, including approval of location and screening,
Landlord shall provide an area of approximately 200 square feet on the rooftop,
as shown on Exhibit E, to accommodate Tenant's dishes, antennae, and other
telecommunications equipment, at no charge during the Term of this Lease, and
additional rooftop space (subject to availability) at a reasonable charge.
Landlord is hereby released from all liability and responsibility for, and
Tenant will be solely responsible for, all costs and expenses, including, but
not limited to, those arising from roof leaks, resulting from Tenant's
installation, maintenance, use, or operation of any satellite dish, antenna, or
related equipment and provided that, once such satellite dishes, antennas or
related equipment are installed by Tenant, Landlord shall not install or permit
the installation of any objects that will materially interfere with Tenant's
satellite dishes, antennas and related equipment. Tenant represents and warrants
to Landlord that Tenant's reception and transmission equipment will not
materially interfere with the reception and transmission of signals by the
equipment of other tenants and occupants of the Building.
8.10 Generators. Tenant, at Tenant's sole expense and at any time during the
Term, may install two diesel emergency generators, including fuel tanks and
grounding systems, in Tenant's
17
Generator Rooms, as shown in Exhibit F and described above, according to plans
and specifications approved in advance by Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, and in compliance with all
applicable Laws. Each generator must be located in side a Generator Room and no
Generator Room will be larger than 500 usable square feet. Tenant shall have the
right to install a generator plug on the outside of the building adjacent to the
loading dock areas for the purpose of connecting the Premises to a portable
generator in the event of a Building power failure. Landlord shall provide, at
no additional charge, if necessary, riser space to connect such generators.
Tenant shall have the right to test Tenant's generator on a weekly basis at
times reasonably agreed upon between Landlord and Tenant in advance (or as set
forth in reasonable rules formulated by Landlord), and Tenant shall be
responsible, at Tenant's sole expense, for maintaining, testing, refueling, and
cleaning the generator and any fuel tanks, all in compliance with applicable
law. Tenant may place a DC power plant and associated batteries within the
Premises, subject to Landlord's prior approval of location, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
8.11 Floor Loading Capacity. Tenant may, at Tenant's sole expense and at any
time during the Term, subject to Landlord's prior consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and the requirements of
this Lease, reasonably reinforce the floor loading capacity of the Premises, so
long as the reinforcement does not adversely affect the floor to ceiling height
of the space below the Premises. If Tenant does so with Landlord's consent,
Tenant shall not be required to return the reinforced areas to their original
condition.
8.12 Liens. Tenant shall pay all costs for Tenant's Work when due. Tenant shall
keep the Project and the Premises free from any mechanic's, materialmen's,
architect's, engineer's or similar liens or encumbrances, and any claims
therefor, in connection with any of Tenant's Work. Tenant shall remove any
claim, lien, or encumbrance of record relating to, caused by or resulting from
Tenant's Work, by bond or otherwise within 30 days after notice from Landlord.
If Tenant fails to do so Landlord may pay the amount (or any portion thereof) or
take such other action as Landlord reasonably deems necessary to remove such
claim, lien, or encumbrance, without being responsible for investigating the
validity thereof. The amount so paid and costs incurred by Landlord shall be
deemed additional rent under this Lease payable within thirty (30) days after
demand, without limitation as to other remedies available to Landlord. Nothing
contained in this Lease shall authorize Tenant to do any act which subjects
Landlord's title to, or any lender's interest in, the Building or any part of it
to any such claims, liens, or encumbrances, whether claimed pursuant to statute
or other law or express or implied contract.
8.13 Securily System. Tenant may, at Tenant's sole expense at any time during
the Term, subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, install one or more security
systems (such as a cardkey system) for access to the Premises, retain
supplemental security services with respect to the Premises, and create a
special security area within the Premises to encompass Tenant's equipment room.
Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in maintaining the security for the Premises
and such area. Tenant may install security with non-building standard locks and
other access controls which restrict access to Tenant and its customers, so long
as Tenant provides Landlord with a reasonable means of access to the Premises
through such security system to allow Landlord to exercise its rights and
perform its obligations under this Lease, subject to the terms of this Lease,
18
and if such systems are changed or modified, Tenant shall immediately notify
Landlord and provide such means of access. Tenant may fence or cage any
equipment or facilities installed by Tenant outside the Premises with Landlord's
prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed. Any entry shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11 below.
ARTICLE 9. REPAIR/MAINTENANCE/UTILITIES/ACCESS
9.1 Landlord's Responsibilities. Subject to the provisions of Article 7,
Landlord shall maintain the Building and the Project in good condition and
repair at least equivalent to that maintained in similar buildings in the
Central Phoenix Business District, including plate glass, doors, and all
heating, air conditioning, ventilation, electrical and plumbing systems
(excluding those installed by Tenant or exclusively serving the Premises, as
contemplated hereunder), the common facilities, including, without limitation,
the parking area, the roof and structural elements of the Premises, and all
utility lines below grade or in the common facilities. Landlord shall not be
responsible to make any non-routine repairs or perform any non-routine
maintenance unless written notice of the need for such repairs or maintenance is
given by Tenant. In the event Tenant or Tenant Parties misuse or intentionally
or negligently damage the Premises, the improvements contained therein, or the
Project, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of repair or maintenance
related to the misuse or damage, plus a ten percent (10%) administrative fee for
such work, within ten (10) business days after written request therefor,
accompanied by evidence reasonably supporting such costs. Landlord shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the Premises water,
electricity, gas, sewer services, and elevator service of a quantity and quality
at least equivalent to such services provided in comparable or similar buildings
in the Central Phoenix Business District. Except as provided in this Lease,
there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of
any entry to the Premises, interruption of services or facilities, temporary
closure of common facilities, or temporary interference with Tenant's business
arising from the making of any repairs or maintenance; provided, however, that
Tenant shall at all times have unrestricted access to the Premises, and Landlord
shall use reasonable efforts to provide at least one elevator operational at all
times, and Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any disturbance or
interference with Tenant's ordinary business operations. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 9.1 (but subject to Section 9.4 below),
if Tenant's utilities are interrupted in the Premises for a period of more than
three days, Base Rent and Operating Costs shall xxxxx for such a period of time,
retroactive to the date of utility interruption, that Tenant is unable to
conduct its ordinary business operations in the Premises. So long as Landlord
complies with the terms of this Article 9, rent abatement shall be Tenant's sole
remedy for such interruption.
9.2 Tenant's Oblintions. Tenant shall maintain the interior of the Premises and
the improvements installed by Tenant in good condition and repair. If Tenant
does not comply with its obligations under this Article, Landlord may, upon
reasonable prior notice to Tenant, but need not, make such repairs and
replacements or obtain maintenance and service contracts, and Tenant shall pay
Landlord the cost within ten (10) business days after demand.
9.3 Janitorial Services. Tenant shall be responsible for providing janitorial
services for the Premises as determined by Tenant.
19
9.4 Utilities. All utility charges for the Premises shall be separately metered
or submetered. Tenant shall pay directly to any public utility for any utility
which it uses in the Premises that is separately metered by such utility and
shall pay to Landlord, prior to delinquency, for any utilities supplied to the
Premises that are measured by a submeter which is part of a master meter for the
Project or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be
entitled to the exclusive use of 3,200 Amps of power during the term and any
Renewal Terms. Tenant shall have the right at any time during the Term to tap
into Building water supply in order to operate a humidifier system in the
Premises, provided that Tenant pays to Landlord a reasonable charge to reimburse
Landlord for Tenant's excess water usage (but not including any profit component
for Landlord). Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Landlord may from time to
time, upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, upgrade, perform routine
maintenance, or change the utilities available to the Building and the Premises
to comply with local law or the requirements of the power suppliers, and that
these activities may involve interruptions in Tenant's utility service. Landlord
will (i) use reasonable efforts to avoid outages during such upgrades,
maintenance, and changes, (ii) except when impracticable, give Tenant sufficient
notice before the same to permit Tenant to take additional measures, including
without limitation payment of additional costs to minimize or avoid outages, and
(iii) use reasonable efforts to schedule such upgrades, maintenance, and changes
as much as practicable at low usage times so as to minimize the impact. So long
as Landlord complies with the provisions of this Article, Landlord shall have no
liability for interruption of utilities.
9.5 Telecommunication Services. Subject to Landlord's prior approval, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Tenant may
have access at no additional rental cost or other charge (but at Tenant's sole
expense) and at any time during the Term to empty conduit and riser space in the
Building for Tenant's use in accordance with plans and specifications approved
in advance by Landlord and subject to Landlord's reasonable restrictions. Tenant
shall have the right at no additional rental cost or other charge (but at
Tenant's sole expense) and at any time during the Term (a) to use fiber optic
cabling in the Building to be installed by Landlord in connection with
Landlord's Work, or, at Tenant's election, to construct additional
telecommunications entrances into the Building and into the Premises (including,
without limitation, multiple and redundant entrances), (b) to install any
additional conduit and facilities required in order to connect Tenant's
generators, power, HVAC equipment and piping, antennas, grounding, and related
equipment and for any other purpose not inconsistent with the design of the
conduit and riser space, (c) to install manholes adjacent to the Building for
bringing telecommunications fiber into the Building, and (d) to use Landlord's
planned telecommunication entrances. As to any of the foregoing work which
concerns or affects parts of the Building or the Project not within the
Premises, Landlord may require that the work be inspected by Landlord or its
contractors for conformance with approved plans and specifications (as
reasonably approved by Landlord), at Tenant's expense, for reimbursement under
the terms set forth in Exhibit C. All such work shall comply with the provisions
of Article 8 above. Subject to Landlord's prior consent as to location and
installation (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, or
delayed), Tenant may run telecommunication cables from the Premises to exit the
Building and to the boundary of the land on which the Building is located.
20
9.6 Access. Tenant and its representatives and customers shall have access to
and the right to enter the Premises and the location of any of Tenant's
equipment seven days per week, 24-hours per day, 365 days per year without the
requirement of prior notice. In addition, if and to the extent necessary to
access any of its cabling, conduit or equipment located outside the Premises,
upon reasonable prior notice to Landlord (which may be verbal or telephonic in
the event of emergency repairs), Tenant shall have access to the common areas,
power and telephone closets serving the Premises, parking area and loading dock,
seven days per week, 24-hours per day, 365 days per year; provided, however,
Tenant acknowledges that a building engineer may be required to accompany any
persons gaining access to areas outside the Premises (unless such engineer is
not immediately available with respect to any emergency repairs, in which case
Tenant shall give such notice as is practicable, within not more than 24 hours).
ARTICLE 10. TENANT'S WORK, ALTERATIONS AND PERSONAL PROPERTY
Tenant shall not commence Tenant's Work or any alterations, additions or
improvements to the Premises, including signs, without the prior written consent
of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, it being acknowledged that, except as otherwise provided in this Lease,
Landlord shall have sole discretion in matters affecting the Building structure,
Systems, Equipment, safety, and the rights of other tenants or occupants.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for Work which (i) will cost less than $50,000
annually, in the aggregate, and (ii) does not affect the Building structure,
Systems, Equipment, safety, riser and shaft capacity, or the rights of other
tenants or occupants, Landlord's consent is not required, but such Work shall be
performed in compliance with all other requirements of this Article and Sections
8.3 through 8.13. All Tenant's Work, alterations, additions, or improvements
shall be made or done in accordance with plans and specifications approved by
Landlord and shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 8.3 through 8.13
above. Other than for the initial Tenant's Work contemplated hereunder, if
Landlord reasonably deems it necessary, Landlord may condition its consent upon
provision of a payment bond, in amount and form reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord, covering the work to be done by Tenant's contractor. In the event
Landlord consents to the making of any alterations, additions or improvements to
the Premises by Tenant, they shall be made by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and
expense. Any contractor or person selected by Tenant to perform work within the
Premises must first be approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Landlord may require by
notice to Tenant given at the time that Landlord approves the plans for such
work, that Tenant either use certain contractors in connection with work on or
directly affecting Building Systems or arrange for supervision or review of
Tenant's Work by such contractor. Tenant's Work and all alterations and
improvements shall be constructed of new materials, in a good workmanlike
manner, in accordance with applicable laws and codes, including without
limitation the Americans with Disabilities Act. Upon the expiration or sooner
termination of the Term of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, Tenant
shall, upon demand by Landlord, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, forthwith
remove any alterations, additions or improvements made by Tenant, designated by
Landlord (as provided in this Lease at the time of Landlord's approval of the
plans for the improvement) as requiring removal, and Tenant shall, forthwith at
its sole cost and expense, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such
removal and restore the Premises to a condition reasonably comparable to their
condition at the commencement of the Lease (reasonable wear and tear and loss by
casualty excluded);
21
provided, that Tenant may leave in the Premises those alterations, additions or
improvements made by Tenant, designated by Landlord (as provided in this Lease
at the time of Landlord's approval of plans for the improvement) as not
requiring removal.
ARTICLE 11. CERTAIN RIGHTS RESERVED BY LANDLORD
Landlord shall have the right:
(a) To change the Project's name or street address after thirty (30) days
prior notice to Tenant;
(b) To enter the Premises either personally or by a designated
representative, upon no less than 24 hours prior notice to Tenant and, at
Tenant's option, escorted by Tenant's representative, for the purpose of access
to risers, examination, inspection, or performing Landlord's obligations
hereunder (except in the event of an emergency when no notice or escort shall be
required), and in showing the Premises to prospective lenders or purchasers;
(c) To enter the Premises either personally or by a designated
representative, at Tenant's option accompanied by a representative of Tenant,
upon 24 hours prior notice to Tenant during the last six months of the Initial
Term or Renewal Period, as the case may be (if Tenant has not elected to
exercise its renewal rights), for purposes of showing the Premises to
prospective tenants;
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Article or this Lease, Landlord or its
agents shall enter Tenant's secured equipment area only after at least twenty-
four (24) hours notice to Tenant and when accompanied by Tenant, except when
failure to comply with the foregoing will cause imminent danger to the Premises
or other portions of the Building or any person. Any entry by Landlord will be
conducted with reasonable caution under the circumstances to prevent damage to
or interference with any of the equipment in the area.
(e) To grant to anyone the exclusive right to conduct any business or
render any service in or to the Project, provided such exclusive right shall not
operate to exclude Tenant from the use expressly permitted under Article 4 or
the conduct of Tenant's business in the Premises and provided that no such
exclusive rights will be granted with respect to the provision of
telecommunication or power services to the Project;
(f) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.13, to retain at all times and
to use, subject to the foregoing limitations, keys (including card keys) to all
doors within and into the Premises. This provision shall not apply to Tenant's
safes or security cabinets for equipment within the equipment room of the
Premises, or other areas maintained by Tenant for the safety and security of
monies, securities, negotiable instruments or like items; and
(g) To restrict or prohibit vending or dispensing machines of any kind in
or about the Premises, except to the extent such machines are used solely for
the personal use of Tenant, its employees, licensees, and agents and are not
visible from the common facilities.
ARTICLE 12. DAMAGE TO PROPERTY; INJURY TO PERSONS; INSURANCE
12.1 Tenant's Responsibility. Tenant shall defend, indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless from any and all claims arising from Tenant's use of the Premises or
the conduct of its business or from any activity, work, or thing done, permitted
or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises, regardless of fault or
negligence which is imputed to Landlord as the owner of the Project but which
involves a condition of the Premises within the control of Tenant, its employees
or contractors, but excluding claims arising from Landlord's or its agents' or
employees' actual negligence or intentional acts. Tenant shall further defend,
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any and all claims arising from any
breach or default in the performance of this Lease by Tenant, or arising from
any act or negligence of Tenant, or of its agents or employees, and from all
costs, attorneys' fees, expenses and liabilities incurred as a result of any
such claim. Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to Landlord, hereby
assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons, in, upon, or about
the Premises from any cause, and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect
thereof against Landlord, unless caused by active negligence or intentional acts
of Landlord, its agents or employees. Landlord shall not be liable for loss of
or damage to any property by theft or otherwise, or for any injury or damage to
persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas,
electricity, water or rain which may leak from any part of any building or from
the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein, or from the roof, street or
subsurface, or from any other place resulting from dampness or any other cause
whatsoever, except to the extent caused by the negligence or intentional acts of
Landlord, its agents or employees. Landlord shall not be liable for interference
with the natural light. Tenant shall give immediate notice to Landlord of any
fire, accident or defect discovered with the Premises or the Building. Tenant
acknowledges that it can protect itself to its satisfaction by procuring
appropriate insurance.
12.2 Insurance. Throughout the Term of this Lease Tenant shall maintain special
perils property insurance, including building and machinery coverage as
applicable, in an amount equal to one hundred percent of the replacement value
of Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment, and other personal property located on
the Premises together with such other insurance as may be reasonably required by
Landlord's lender or by any government agency. All proceeds of Tenant's policy
of property insurance shall be payable to Tenant, and all proceeds of policies
of insurance procured by Landlord shall be payable to Landlord. Tenant hereby
waives any right to recovery from Landlord and Landlord hereby waives any right
of recovery from Tenant for any loss or damage (including consequential loss)
resulting from any of the perils insured against in the special form property
insurance policy with extended coverage endorsement. During the Term of this
Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, maintain commercial general liability
insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring
in, upon or about the Premises in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per
occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate (with a separate general aggregate
limit for the Premises), automobile liability insurance with a combined single
limit not less than $1,000,000, and workers' compensation insurance as required
by law. Tenant's policies of liability insurance shall name Landlord as an
additional insured, shall provide coverage for blanket contractual liability,
premises, products/completed operations, and personal and advertising injury
coverage, to the extent normally included in policies maintained by Tenant.
Tenant's policies of insurance shall be primary and not contributory as to other
insurance purchased by or available to Landlord, and
23
shall have retentions or deductibles reasonably acceptable to Landlord. A
certificate of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Article
12 shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date and thereafter
at least thirty days prior to the expiration of the then current policies. Upon
the written request of Landlord, copies of such policies shall also be delivered
to Landlord. Each policy shall contain an endorsement prohibiting cancellation
or nonrenewal without at least ten (10) days prior notice to Landlord for
nonpayment of premium and otherwise without thirty (30) days prior notice to
Landlord.
12.4 Waiver of Subrogation. Anything in this Lease to the contrary
notwithstanding, Landlord and Tenant hereby waive and release each other of and
from any and all right of recovery, claim, action or cause of action, against
each other, their agents, officers and employees, for any loss or damage that
may occur to the Premises or the Building, by reason of fire or the elements,
regardless of cause or origin, including negligence of Landlord or Tenant and
their agents, officers and employees. Landlord and Tenant agree immediately to
give their respective insurance companies which have issued special perils
policies of property insurance, written notice of the terms of the mutual
waivers contained in this Section, and to have the insurance policies properly
endorsed, if necessary, to prevent the invalidation of the insurance coverage by
reason of the mutual waivers. The waiver does not apply to claims caused by a
party's willful misconduct. If, despite a party's best efforts, it cannot find
an insurance company meeting the criteria above that will give the waiver at
reasonable commercial rates, then it shall give notice to the other party within
thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date. The other party shall then have
thirty (30) days to find an insurance company that will issue the waiver. If the
other party also cannot find such an insurance company, then both parties shall
be released from their obligation to obtain the waiver. If an insurance company
is found but it will give the waiver only at rates greater than reasonable
commercial rates, then the parties can agree to pay for the waiver under any
agreement they can negotiate. If the parties cannot in good faith negotiate an
agreement, then both parties shall be released from their obligation to obtain
the waiver.
12.5 Landlord's Insurance. Landlord shall carry full replacement special perils
property insurance, including building and machinery coverages and commercial
general liability insurance in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per
occurrence.
ARTICLE 13. FIRE AND CASUALTY
Except as hereafter provided, if the Premises are wholly or partially destroyed
or damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall restore the Premises with
reasonable diligence; provided, however, that Landlord shall have no obligation
to restore improvements not originally provided by Landlord or to replace any of
Tenant's fixtures, furnishings, equipment, or personal property and Tenant shall
be responsible for refixturizing the Premises and reinstalling its equipment.
Landlord need not commence repairs until a substantial portion of the insurance
proceeds are available. Proceeds of Landlord's insurance payable with respect to
a fire or other casualty shall be received and held by Landlord. Proceeds of
Tenant' s insurance payable with respect to a fire or other casualty shall be
received and held by Tenant. In the event the Premises are destroyed or damaged
by any fire or casualty not covered by the insurance maintained by Landlord, or
insurance required under this Lease to be maintained by Landlord, whichever is
greater, or to the extent of not less than twenty-five percent of the
replacement cost thereof, or if the fire or
24
casualty occurs within the last year of the Term of the Lease, or if the
Premises cannot reasonably be repaired within ninety (90) days from the date of
the casualty, then Landlord or Tenant shall have the option to terminate this
Lease by giving notice to the other party within sixty days after the occurrence
of such damage or destruction, in which case Landlord shall retain all insurance
proceeds payable with respect to its insurance with respect to the Premises as
its own property, and Tenant shall retain all insurance proceeds payable with
respect to its insurance with respect to the Premises as its own property. If
Landlord or Tenant does not terminate this Lease as provided above, this Lease
shall continue in full force and effect, but Base Rent and Operating Costs shall
be equitably abated with respect to the portion of the Premises that is not
usable by Tenant for its normal business operations until the restoration is
substantially complete. The provisions of this Lease shall govern when this
Lease is terminable as a result of a fire or casualty and no other rule or
statute on the subject applies.
ARTICLE 14. CONDEMNATION
If any portion of the Premises or the Building is appropriated or taken under
the power of eminent domain which Tenant determines in its reasonable judgment
renders the Premises unusable by Tenant for its normal business operations,
either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease, as of
the date Tenant is required to vacate or can no longer use the affected part of
the Premises or the Building, by giving notice in writing of such election
within thirty days after receipt by Tenant from Landlord of written notice that
Tenant's Premises or the Building have been or will be so appropriated or taken.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may only exercise its option to
terminate this Lease under this Article 14 if Landlord terminates the leases of
all other similarly situated tenants occupying premises in the Building which
are also subject to the taking. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to
terminate this Lease, then Landlord shall restore the Premises to the extent
practicable to their condition prior to the taking, and the Base Rent and
Operating Costs shall be reduced on an equitable basis from the date of the
taking, taking into account the relative value of the portion of the Premises
taken as compared to the portion remaining. All awards or compensation for any
taking of any part of the Premises, whether payable to Landlord or Tenant, shall
be the sole property of Landlord. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Tenant shall be entitled to pursue an award of compensation
relating to damage to or loss of tenant improvements made by Tenant, trade
fixtures or other personal property belonging to Tenant, moving expenses,
inconvenience and business interruption. Landlord shall be under no obligation
to restore or replace Tenant's furnishings, trade fixtures, equipment and
personal property. For the purposes of this Article 14, a voluntary sale or
conveyance in lieu of condemnation shall be deemed an appropriation or a taking
under the power of eminent domain.
ARTICLE 15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING; SALE BY LANDLORD
15.1 Transfer by Tenant. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 15, Tenant
shall not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, hypothecate, or
transfer this Lease, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, without
Landlord's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed, provided the proposed assignee or sublessee is
reasonably satisfactory to Landlord as to credit and character and will occupy
the Premises for purposes not inconsistent with Tenant's purposes as stated in
Article 4. Landlord shall be under
25
no obligation to give or withhold consent until after all information reasonably
required by Landlord with respect to the identity, background, experience and
financial worth of the proposed assignee, transferee, or subtenant has been
provided to Landlord, after which Landlord will give notice to Tenant within
five (5) business days of Landlord's consent or nonconsent. No hypothecation,
assignment, sublease or other transfer to which Landlord has consented shall be
effective for any purpose until such time as fully executed documents of such
transaction have been provided to Landlord, and, in the case of an assignment,
the assignee has attorned directly to Landlord, or, in the case of a sublease,
the sublessee has acknowledged that the sublease is subject to all of the terms
and conditions of this Lease. Any assignment, mortgage, transfer or subletting
of this Lease which is not in compliance with the provisions of this Article 15
shall be voidable and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate this Lease.
The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting shall not be construed as
relieving Tenant from obtaining the express written consent of Landlord to any
further assignment or subletting or as releasing Tenant from any liability or
obligation hereunder, whether or not then accrued. Except as provided in this
Article, this Lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the parties. The term "assignment" includes the
following, whether accomplished directly or indirectly: (a) if Tenant is a
partnership or limited liability company, the withdrawal or change, voluntarily,
involuntarily or by operation of law, of a majority of the partners or members,
or a transfer of a majority of ownership interests, in the aggregate on a
cumulative basis, or the dissolution of the partnership or limited liability
company; and (b) if Tenant is a private corporation (i.e., whose stock is not
publicly held and traded through an exchange or over the counter), the: (i)
dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant; (ii) sale
or other transfer of more than a cumulative aggregate of 50% of the voting
shares of Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or
death); or (iii) sale, mortgage, hypothecation or pledge of more than a
cumulative aggregate of 50% of Tenant's net assets.
15.2 Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign its
---------------------
interest under this Lease or sublease any portion of the Premises to an
Affiliate (as defined below), provided that (i) the Affiliate is a reputable
entity with a tangible net worth, determined on a consolidated basis, if
applicable, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that is
at least equal to the greater of (X) Tenant's tangible net worth immediately
prior to such transaction, and (Y) Tenant's tangible net worth on the date of
this Lease, and (ii) except with respect to assignment by operation of Law, an
instrument is executed by the assignee or subtenant under which the transferee
assumes all obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and such instrument is
delivered to Landlord on or prior to or promptly after the effective date of
such transaction. As used in this Lease, the term "Affiliate" means an entity
which (i) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with INFLOW,
INC., or (ii) is Tenant's successor by merger, acquisition (whether structured
as a stock acquisition or the acquisition of substantially all of Tenant's
assets), or consolidation, (iii) acquires the business being conducted in the
Premises, (iv) has at least a ten percent (10%) ownership interest in Tenant, or
(v) is owned at least ten percent (10%) by Tenant. As used herein, "control" of
an entity means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct
that entity's management and policies, whether through the ownership of voting
securities or otherwise. A transfer under this Section 15.2 is a "Permitted
Transfer" So long as Tenant is not a publicly traded corporation and subject to
the confidentiality provisions of Article 23.13 below, from time to time, within
a reasonable time following written request by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly
provide Landlord with a statement certified by an authorized
26
officer of Tenant which provides the following information: (i) the names of
Tenant's shareholders, partners, limited partners, or members, and their
ownership interests at the time of the statement; (ii) the state in which Tenant
is incorporated or organized; and (iii) any information regarding a material
change in Tenant's structure, including, without limitation, a merger or
consolidation. Landlord may not request such a statement more than one time per
year.
15.3 Co-location Not a Transfer. The co-location of equipment or the providing
of short-term rights to use portions of the Premises to Tenant's customers and
vendors is not an assignment or sublease by Tenant, provided that, as between
Landlord and Tenant, any rights and liabilities with respect to the co-location
or the co-located equipment shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant,
including, without limitation, the movement thereof, in and out of the Premises
in the same manner and to the same extent as if the co-locators were Tenant and
their equipment belonged to Tenant.
15.4 Splitting Profits. If Landlord has approved an assignment of this Lease or
a sublease of the Premises as provided above or Tenant has made a Permitted
Transfer, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord when and as received by Tenant fifty
percent of any consideration received by Tenant in excess of the Base Rent and
other charges then payable by Tenant hereunder (calculated on a per square foot
basis), after Tenant has recovered Tenant's reasonable costs, fees, and expenses
incurred in connection with such assignment or sublease, including reasonable
brokerage commissions, reasonable costs of architectural and engineering fees,
and leasehold improvements required by the assignee or subtenant.
15.5 Continued Responsibility. Tenant shall remain fully liable for performance
of this Lease, notwithstanding any assignment or sublease, for the entire Lease
Term, including any Renewal Periods as to which the transferee exercises its
option.
15.6 Sale of Propgrty. In the event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the
Premises, provided that Landlord's successor in interest assumes all obligations
under this Lease, Landlord shall be relieved of all future liability for the
covenants or conditions, express or implied, in favor of Tenant, and Tenant
shall look solely to Landlord's successor in interest. Provided that Landlord's
successor in interest assumes all obligations under this Lease, this Lease shall
not be affected by any sale, and Tenant shall attorn to the successor-in-
interest. If any Security Deposit has been made by Tenant, the successor-in-
interest shall be obligated to return it in accordance with the terms hereof and
Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability in reference thereto.
ARTICLE 16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
16.1 Certification. Tenant and Landlord shall each at any time and from time to
time upon not less than fifteen (15) days' prior written notice from the other
party execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other 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 full force and effect) and the dates to which the
rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any; (ii) acknowledging that
there are not, to the certifying party's
27
knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of the other party hereunder, or
specifying such defaults if they are claimed; and (iii) certifying such other
matters relating to this Lease as the requesting party may reasonably request.
Any such statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or
encumbrancer of all or any portion of the real property of which the Premises
are a part.
16.2 Failure to Provide. Either party's failure to deliver a statement within
------------------
the fifteen (15) day time period prescribed above shall be conclusive upon such
party (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification
except as may be represented by the requesting party, (ii) that there are no
uncured defaults in the requesting party's performance, and (iii) that not more
than one month's rental has been paid in advance.
ARTICLE 17. LANDLORD'S REMEDIES
17.1 Events of Default. The following are Events of Default:
-----------------
(a) Tenant's failure to pay rent or any other amount due under this Lease
within ten (10) days after notice of nonpayment.
(b) Tenant's failure to execute, acknowledge and return an estoppel
certificate which complies with the requirements of Article 16 or a
subordination agreement which complies with the requirements of Article 19,
within five (5) business days after request by Landlord following the expiration
of the periods provided for in Articles 16 and 19.
(c) Tenant's failure to perform any other obligation under this Lease
within fifteen (15) days after notice of nonperformance; provided, however, that
if the breach is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within fifteen (15)
days after receipt of written request, Tenant shall be deemed to have cured if
cure is commenced promptly (in no event later than fifteen (15) days after
notice of nonperformance) and diligently pursued to completion; but if a breach
involves an imminent threat to health or safety, Landlord may in its notice of
breach reduce the period for cure to such shorter period as may be reasonable
under the circumstances.
17.2 Remedies. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord, without
--------
further notice or demand, may exercise any one or more of the following remedies
concurrently or in succession:
(a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by legal
process, with or without terminating this Lease, and by judicial process retake
exclusive possession of the Premises.
(b) From time to time relet all or portions of the Premises, using
reasonable efforts to mitigate Landlord's damages. In connection with any
reletting, Landlord may relet for a period less than or extending beyond the
Term of this Lease and may make alterations or improvements to the Premises
without releasing Tenant of any liability. Upon a reletting of all or
substantially all of the Premises, Landlord shall be entitled to recover all of
its then prospective damages for the balance of the Term of the Lease measured
by the difference between amounts payable under
28
this Lease and the anticipated net proceeds of reletting; provided, however,
that if the new lease term extends beyond the Term or the Premises covered
thereby includes other premises not part of the Premises, a fair apportionment
of the expenses of reletting will be made, and any rental concessions will be
amortized over the term of the new lease. In no event shall Tenant be entitled
to receive any amount representing the excess of avails of reletting over
amounts payable hereunder.
(c) From time to time recover accrued and unpaid rent and damages arising
from Tenant's breach of the Lease, regardless of whether the Lease has been
terminated, together with applicable late charges and interest at the rate of
18% per annum or the highest lawful rate, whichever is less; provided, however,
that Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to relet the Premises in order to
mitigate Landlord's damages.
(d) Recover all reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by
Landlord in connection with enforcing this Lease, recovering possession, and
collecting amounts owed.
(e) Perform the obligation on Tenant's behalf or remove equipment
installed in contravention of the terms of this Lease and recover from Tenant,
upon demand, the entire amount expended by Landlord plus fifteen percent (15%)

Tenant shall have the right to have its architects and engineers inspect
Landlord's Work for compliance with the Lease, including, without limitation,
this Exhibit C, and the Plans for Landlord's Work. In each instance above where
work is be performed by Landlord at Tenant's expense, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for such work within thirty (30) days after notice and presentation of
an invoice for such work in accordance with this provision and the requirements
of the Lease, provided that Tenant's architects and engineers have confirmed
that the work represented by such invoice has been completed in compliance with
this Lease and the Plans for Landlord's Work. If Tenant notifies Landlord that
Tenant or its architects and engineers have reasonably determined that the work
represented by an invoice has not been completed in compliance with this lease
and the Plans for Landlord's Work, Landlord and Tenant shall use commercially
reasonable good faith efforts to resolve any such disagreement, and if such
disagreement cannot be resolved by Landlord and Tenant, they shall submit the
matter to arbitration as provided in Section 17.4 of this Lease. Landlord may
present multiple invoices from time to time as work is in progress or completed.
Tenant's failure to reimburse Landlord or to notify Landlord within ten (10)
business days after Tenant's receipt of notice with a copy of Landlord's invoice
that Tenant is contesting the amount claimed due shall be deemed a failure to
pay additional rent under the Lease. Reimbursement amounts not paid within
thirty (30) days after presentation of the invoice to Tenant shall bear
interest at the rate of 18% per annum or the highest rate allowed by law,
whichever is lower. Landlord shall give notice with copies of invoices in
accordance with the notice provisions of Article 18 of the Lease.
