INITIAl LEASE TERM; OPTION TERM
-------------------------------
2.1 Initial Lease Term. The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be
------------------
effective as of the date of this Lease. The term of this Lease (the "Lease
Term") shall be as set forth in Section 5.1 of the Summary, shall commence on
-----------
the earlier to occur of (i) the date Tenant opens for business in the Premises,
and (ii) the date of "Substantial Completion", as that term is defined in this
Article 2, of the Premises by Landlord (the "Lease Commencement Date"), and
---------
shall terminate on the date set forth in Section 5.3 of the Summary (the "Lease
-----------
Expiration Date") unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter
provided. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Lease Year" shall mean each
consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term; provided, however,
that the first Lease Year shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date and end
on the last day of the eleventh month thereafter and the second and each
succeeding Lease Year shall commence on the first day of the next calendar
month; and further provided that the last Lease Year shall end on the Lease
Expiration Date. For purposes of this Lease, "Substantial Completion" of the
Premises shall occur upon the completion of construction, as reasonably
determined by Landlord, of the "Tenant Improvements," as that term is defined in
Section 1 of the Tenant Work Letter, in the Premises pursuant to the plans and
drawings which are prepared pursuant to the terms of the Tenant Work Letter,
with the exception of any punch list items and any tenant fixtures, work-
stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant in the
Premises pursuant to the terms of the Tenant Work Letter or to be installed
under the supervision of "Contractor" as that term is defined in Section 4.1 of
the Tenant Work Letter. Within thirty (30) days following the Substantial
Completion of the Premises, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a notice (the
"Notice of Lease Term Dates") in substantially the form as set forth in Exhibit
B attached hereto, which notice Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord
within ten (10) business days of receipt thereof, and thereafter the dates set
forth on such notice shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant. Failure of
Tenant to timely execute and deliver the
-2-
Notice of Lease Term Dates shall constitute an acknowledgment by Tenant that the
statements included in such notice are true and correct, without exception.
2.2 Option Term.
-----------
2.2.1 Option Right. Landlord hereby grants the Tenant originally
------------
named in the Lease (the "Original Tenant") one (1) option to extend the Lease
Term for a period of five (5) years (the "Option Term"), which option shall be
exercisable only by written notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord as provided
below, provided that, as of the date of delivery of such notice, Tenant is not
in monetary or material non-monetary default (collectively, "Material Default")
under this Lease. Upon the proper exercise of such option to extend, and
provided that, as of the end of the initial Lease Term, Tenant is not in
Material Default under this Lease, the Lease Term, as it applies to the
Premises, shall be extended for a period of five (5) years. The rights
contained in this Section 2.2 shall be personal to the Original Tenant or any
"Affiliate," as that term is defined in Section 14.7, below, and may only be
exercised by the Original Tenant or any Affiliate (and not any other assignee,
sublessee or transferee of the Original Tenant's interest in this Lease) if the
Original Tenant or any Affiliate occupies the entire Premises.
2.2.2 Option Rent. The rent payable by Tenant during the Option Term
-----------
(the "Option Rent") shall be equal to the rent (including additional rent and
considering any "base year" or "expense stop" applicable thereto), including all
escalations, at which, as of the commencement of the Option Term, tenants are
leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity space comparable in size,
location and quality to the Premises, for a term of five (5) years, which
comparable space is located in the Project and in Phase II, or, if there are not
a sufficient number of current comparable transactions in the Project and in
Phase II, then in the Comparable Buildings (the "Comparable Transactions"), in
either case taking into consideration the following concessions (collectively,
the "Renewal Concessions"): (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being
granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (b) tenant
improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space,
taking into account, and deducting the value of, the existing improvements in
the Premises, such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the
improvements and the extent to which the same can be utilized by Tenant based
upon the fact that the precise tenant improvements existing in the Premises are
specifically suitable to Tenant; and (c) other reasonable monetary concessions
being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided,
however, that in calculating the Option Rent, no consideration shall be given to
(i) the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage
commission in connection with Tenant's exercise of its right to lease the
Premises during the Option Term or the fact that landlords are or are not paying
real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space, and
(ii) any period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable
transactions in connection with the design, permitting and construction of
tenant improvements in such comparable spaces. The Option Rent shall
additionally include a determination as to whether, and if so to what extent,
Tenant must provide Landlord with financial security, such as a letter of credit
or guaranty, for Tenant's Rent obligations during the Option Term. Such
determination shall be made by reviewing the extent of financial security then
generally being imposed in Comparable Transactions from tenants of comparable
financial condition and credit history to the then existing financial condition
and credit history of Tenant (with appropriate adjustments to account for
differences in the then-existing financial condition of Tenant and such other
tenants).
2.2.3 Exercise of Option. The option contained in this Section 2.2
------------------
shall be exercised by Tenant, if at all, only in the following manner: (i)
Tenant shall deliver written notice (the "Interest Notice") to Landlord not more
than fifteen (15) months nor less than fourteen (14) months prior to the
expiration of the initial Lease Term, stating that Tenant is interested in
exercising its option; (ii) Landlord, after receipt of Tenant's notice, shall
deliver notice (the "Option Rent Notice") to Tenant not less than thirteen (13)
months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, setting forth the
Option Rent; and (iii) if Tenant wishes to exercise such option, Tenant shall,
on or before the date occurring thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt of the
Option Rent Notice, exercise the option by delivering written notice (the
"Exercise Notice") thereof to Landlord, and upon, and concurrently with, such
exercise, Tenant may, at its option, accept or reject the Option Rent. If
Tenant does not affirmatively accept the Option Rent contained in the Option
Rent Notice, or if Tenant timely delivers the Exercise Notice without
-3-
having previously delivered to Landlord the Interest Notice, then the parties
shall follow the procedure, and the Option Rent shall be determined, as set
forth in Section 2.2.4 below.
-------------
2.2.4 Determination of Option Rent. In the event Tenant does not
----------------------------
timely and appropriately accept the Option Rent or Tenant timely and
appropriately objects to Landlord's determination of Option Rent, as the case
may be, Landlord and Tenant shall use good faith efforts to attempt to agree
upon the Option Rent. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within ten
(10) days following Tenant's objection to the Option Rent (the "Outside
Agreement Date"), then each party shall make a separate determination of the
Option Rent, within five (5) days, concurrently exchange such determinations and
such determinations shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with
Sections 2.2.4.1 through 2.2.4.7 below.
--------------------------------
2.2.4.1 Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who
shall by profession be an independent real estate broker or appraiser who shall
have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such
appointment in the leasing (or appraisal, as the case may be) of commercial
properties in the West Los Angeles, California area. The determination of the
arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue area of whether Landlord's or
Tenant's submitted Option Rent is the closest to the actual Option Rent as
determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements of Section
-------
2.2.2 of this Lease. Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen
-----
(15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date.
2.2.4.2 The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10)
days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon
and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria
set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two (2) arbitrators.
2.2.4.3 The three (3) arbitrators shall within thirty (30) days of
the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to whether the
parties shall use Landlord's or Tenant's submitted Option Rent and shall notify
Landlord and Tenant thereof.
2.2.4.4 The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators
shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant and judgment on such
decision may be rendered in a court of competent jurisdiction.
2.2.4.5 If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator
within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, the
arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, notify Landlord and
Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator's decision shall be binding upon Landlord
and Tenant.
2.2.4.6 If the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a
third arbitrator, or both parties fail to appoint an arbitrator, then the
appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the
matter to be decided shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the
provisions of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to the
instruction set forth in this Section 2.2.4.
-------------
2.2.4.7 The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant
equally.

authority, if it had then had knowledge of the presence of such hazardous
material, in the state, and under the conditions that it then existed in
the Building or on the Project, would have then required the removal of
such hazardous material or other remedial or containment action with
respect thereto; and costs incurred to remove, remedy, contain, or treat
hazardous material, which hazardous material is brought into the Building
or onto the Project after the date hereof by Landlord or any other tenant
of the Project and is of such a nature, at that time, that a federal, State

(t) advertising and marketing expenditures.
If the Project is not fully occupied during all or a portion of any
Expense Year, Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to the variable
components of Operating Expenses for such year employing sound accounting and
management principles, to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would
have been paid had the Project been fully occupied; and the amount so determined

personal property used in connection with all or any portion of the Project),
which shall be paid during any Expense Year (without regard to any different
fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority) because of or in
connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project, or any
portion thereof.
4.2.5.1 Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation:
(i) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in
addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment,
tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real
property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition
13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June 1978
election ("Proposition 13") and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and
charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire
protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for
other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property
owners or occupants, and, in further recognition of the decrease in the
level and quality of governmental services and amenities as a result of
Proposition 13, Tax Expenses shall also include any governmental or private
assessments or the Project's contribution towards a governmental or private
cost-sharing agreement for the purpose of augmenting or improving the
quality of services and amenities normally provided by governmental
agencies. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such new and
increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies, and charges and all similar
assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges be included within the
definition of Tax Expenses for the purposes of this Lease;
(ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge
allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the Rent payable

to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession,
leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or
occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof;
(iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon
this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or
transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises; and
(iv) Any possessory taxes charged or levied in lieu of
real estate taxes.
4.2.5.2 Any expenses incurred in attempting to protest, reduce
or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax Expenses in the Expense Year
such expenses are paid.
-8-
4.2.5.3 Tax refunds shall be credited against Tax Expenses and
refunded to Tenant regardless of when received, based on the Expense Year to
which the refund is applicable, provided that in no event shall the amount to be
refunded to Tenant for any such Expense Year exceed the total amount paid by
Tenant as Additional Rent under this Article 4 for such Expense Year.

4.2.5.4 The amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year
attributable to the valuation of the Project, inclusive of tenant improvements,
shall be known as "Base Taxes." If, in any comparison year subsequent to the
Base Year, the amount of Tax Expenses decreases, then for purposes of all
subsequent comparison years, including the comparison year in which such
decrease in Tax Expenses occurs, the Base Taxes shall be decreased by an amount
equal to the decrease in Tax Expenses.
4.2.5.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
4.2.5, the following shall be excluded from Tax Expenses:
4.2.5.5.1 All excess profits taxes, franchise taxes,
gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and succession taxes, estate taxes,
federal and state income taxes, and other taxes applied or measured by
Landlord's general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income
attributable to operations at the Project); and
4.2.5.5.2 Any items included as Operating Expenses.
4.2.6 "Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage set forth in Section
7.2 of the Summary. Tenant's Share was calculated by multiplying the number of
rentable square feet of the Premises by 100, and dividing the product by the
total rentable square feet in the Building.
4.3 Allocation and Calculation of Project Expenses.
----------------------------------------------
4.3.1 Allocation of Project Expenses to Tenants of the Building.
---------------------------------------------------------
Project Expenses (i.e., Operating Expenses and Tax Expenses) are determined
----
annually for the Project as a whole. Since the Building is only one of the
buildings which constitute the Project, Project Expenses shall be allocated by
Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, to both the tenants of the Building and
the tenants of the other buildings in the Project. The portion of Project
Expenses allocated to the tenants of the Building shall consist of (i) all
Project Expenses attributable solely to the Building and (ii) an equitable
portion of Project Expenses attributable to the Project as a whole and not
attributable solely to the Building, the Adjacent Building or to any other
building of the Project. Additionally, in allocating Project Expenses to the
tenants of the Building, Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to
equitably allocate some or all of the Project Expenses allocable to tenants of
the Building among different tenants of the Building (the "Cost Pools"). Such
Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants of
the Building and the retail space tenants of the Building.
4.3.2 Calculation of Project Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to
-------------------------------
the contrary set forth in this Article 4, when calculating the Project Expenses
---------
for the Base Year, such Project Expenses shall include any increase in Tax
Expenses attributable to special assessments, charges, costs, or fees, or due to
modifications or changes in governmental laws or regulations, including but not
limited to the institution of a split tax roll, and Operating Expenses shall
include market-wide labor-rate increases due to extraordinary circumstances,
including, but not limited to, boycotts and strikes, and utility rate increases
due to extraordinary circumstances including, but not limited to, conservation
surcharges, boycotts, embargoes or other shortages and amortized costs relating
to capital improvements; provided, however, that at such time as any such
particular assessments, charges, costs or fees are no longer included in
Operating Expenses, such particular assessments, charges, costs or fees shall be
excluded from the Base Year calculation of Operating Expenses.
4.4 Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent.
------------------------------------------
4.4.1 Calculation of Excess. For every Expense Year ending or
---------------------
commencing within the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner
set forth in Section 4.4.2,
-9-
below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to Tenant's Share of Project
Expenses for such Expense Year in excess of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses
for the Base Year (the "Excess").
4.4.2 Statement of Actual Project Expenses and Payment by Tenant.
----------------------------------------------------------
Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant on or before the first day of April
following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the "Statement") which
shall state the Project Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense
Year and the amount thereof allocated to the tenants of the Building, and which
shall indicate the amount, if any, of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses in
excess of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses for the Base Year. Upon receipt of
the Statement for each Expense Year ending during the Lease Term, Tenant shall
pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of Tenant's
Share of Project Expenses for such Expense Year in excess of Tenant's Share of
Project Expenses for the Base Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such
Expense Year as "Estimated Additional Rent," as that term is defined in Section
4.4.3, below. If the amount of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses for such
Expense Year in excess of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses for the Base Year
is less than the amount paid by Tenant as Estimated Additional Rent during the
applicable period of the Expense Year (but not including any period of the
Expense Year which occurs after the Lease has terminated), Landlord shall pay
the difference to Tenant together with the applicable Statement, even if the
Lease has terminated or expired. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the
Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from
enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has
expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is
made of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses allocated to the tenants of the
Building for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if Tenant's Share
of Project Expenses for such Expense Year is in excess of Tenant's Share of
Project Expenses for the Base Year, then Tenant shall immediately pay to
Landlord an amount as calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.4.1 of
this Lease. The provisions of this Section 4.4.2 shall survive the expiration
or earlier termination of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the immediately
preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenant's Share of any
Project Expenses attributable to any Expense Year which are first billed to
Tenant more than twenty-four (24) months after the earlier of Tenant's receipt
of the Statement for the applicable Expense Year or the Lease Expiration Date,
provided that in any event Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant's Share of
Project Expenses levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility
companies at any time following the Expense Year to which such Project Expenses
are attributable.
4.4.3 Statement of Estimated Project Expenses. In addition, Landlord
---------------------------------------
shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the "Estimate
Statement") which shall set forth Landlord's reasonable estimate (the
"Estimate") of what the total amount of Project Expenses for the then-current
Expense Year shall be, the amount thereof to be allocated to the tenants of the
Building, and the estimated amount of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses in
excess of Tenant's Share of the Project Expenses for the Base Year (the
"Estimated Additional Rent"). The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the
Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from
enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Additional Rent under this Article
4. If, pursuant to the Estimate Statement, Estimated Additional Rent is
calculated for the then-current Expense Year, Tenant shall pay, with its next
installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Additional Rent for
the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last
sentence of this Section 4.4.3). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the
number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the
month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate
Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant
at any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments,
an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Additional Rent set
forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.
4.5 Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes required to be
paid by Landlord, excluding state, local and federal personal or corporate
income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources and estate
and inheritance taxes, whether or not now customary or within the contemplation
of the parties hereto, when:
-10-
4.5.1 Said taxes are measured by or reasonably attributable to the
cost or value of Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal
property located in the Premises, or by the cost or value of any leasehold
improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, to the extent the cost
or value of such leasehold improvements exceeds the cost or value of a building
standard build-out as determined by Landlord regardless of whether title to such
improvements shall be vested in Tenant or Landlord;
4.5.2 Said taxes are assessed upon or with respect to the possession,
leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or
occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Project (including the
Project parking facility); or
4.5.3 Said taxes are assessed upon this transaction or any document
to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in
the Premises.
4.6 Landlord's Books and Records. In the event that Tenant disputes the
----------------------------
amount of Additional Rent set forth in any annual Statement delivered by
Landlord, then within one (1) year after receipt of such Statement by Tenant
(the "Review Period"), Tenant shall have the right to notify Landlord in writing
that it intends to cause one of its employees or an independent certified public
accountant (which accountant must be qualified and experienced and must be
employed by a firm which derives its primary revenues from its accounting
practice) to inspect and copy (provided Tenant signs Landlord's confidentiality
agreement, in such form as is commercially reasonable and such accountant or
auditor is not hired on a contingent fee basis) Landlord's accounting records at
Landlord's office in the Project for the Expense Year covered by such Statement
during normal business hours ("Tenant's Review"). Tenant shall provide Landlord
with not less than two (2) weeks' prior written notice of its desire to conduct
Tenant's Review. In connection with the foregoing review, Landlord shall
furnish Tenant with such reasonable supporting documentation relating to the
subject Statement (and the Statement for the Base Year, provided that such
supporting documentation relating to the Statement for the Base Year shall be
for informational purposes only and not for the purpose of any audit of the Base
Year Statement if the time period for Tenant's audit of the Base Year Statement
shall have expired) as Tenant may reasonably request. In no event shall Tenant
have the right to conduct Tenant's Review if Tenant is then in default under the
Lease, including, without limitation, the payment by Tenant of all Additional
Rent amounts described in the Statement which is the subject of Tenant's Review,
which payment, at Tenant's election, may be made under dispute. In the event
that Tenant shall fail to provide Landlord with written notification within the
Review Period following receipt of a particular Statement of Tenant's desire to
conduct a Tenant's Review, Tenant shall have no further right to dispute the
amounts of Additional Rent set forth on such Statement. In the event that
following Tenant's Review, Tenant and Landlord continue to dispute the amounts
of Additional Rent shown on Landlord's Statement and Landlord and Tenant are
unable to resolve such dispute, then either Landlord or Tenant shall cause a
final and determinative audit to be made by Landlord's accountant of the proper
amount of the disputed items and/or categories of Project Expenses to be shown
on such Statement (the "Final Award"). The results of such Final Award shall be
conclusive and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant. If the resolution of the
parties' dispute with regard to the Additional Rent shown on the Statement,
whether pursuant to Tenant's Review or the Final Award reveals an error in the
calculation of Tenant's Share of Project Expenses to be paid for such Expense
Year, the parties' sole remedy shall be for the parties to make appropriate
payments or reimbursements, as the case may be, to each other as are determined
to be owing. Any such payments shall be made within thirty (30) days following
the resolution of such dispute. At Landlord's election, the parties shall treat
any overpayments resulting from the foregoing resolution of such parties'
dispute as a credit against Rent until such amounts are otherwise paid by
Landlord. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated
with Tenant's Review and any Final Award, provided that if the parties' final
resolution of the dispute involves the overstatement by Landlord of Project
Expenses for such Expense Year in excess of four percent (4%), then Landlord
shall be responsible for all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses
associated with Tenant's Review and any Final Award. This provision shall
survive the termination of this Lease to allow the parties to enforce their
respective rights hereunder.

ARTICLE 5
---------
USE OF PREMISES
---------------
Tenant shall use the Premises solely for general office purposes consistent
with the character of the Project as a first-class office building project, and
Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose or
purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be
withheld in Landlord's sole discretion. Tenant further covenants and agrees
that Tenant shall not use, or suffer or permit any person or persons to use, the
Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose contrary to the provisions
of the Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit C, attached hereto, or in
violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California,
or the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county
governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project.
Tenant shall comply with all recorded covenants, conditions, and restrictions
now or hereafter affecting the Project. Tenant shall not use or allow another
person or entity to use any part of the Premises for the storage, use,
treatment, manufacture or sale of "Hazardous Material," as that term is defined
in Section 29.23 of this Lease.
ARTICLE 6
---------
SERVICES AND UTILITIES
----------------------
6.1 Standard Tenant Services. Landlord shall provide the following
------------------------
services on all days (unless otherwise stated below) during the Lease Term.
6.1.1 Subject to all governmental rules, regulations and guidelines
applicable thereto, Landlord shall provide heating and air conditioning when
necessary for normal comfort for normal office use in the Premises, from Monday
through Friday, during the period from 8 A.M. to 6 P.M. and on Saturday during
the period from 9 A.M. to 1 P.M., except for the date of observation of New
Year's Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving Day,
Christmas Day and, at Landlord's discretion, other nationally recognized
holidays (collectively, the "Holidays").
6.1.2 Landlord shall provide adequate electrical wiring and
facilities and power for normal general office use as reasonably determined by
Landlord. Landlord shall replace lamps, starters, and ballasts for Building
standard lighting fixtures within the Premises at Tenant's request at Landlord's
cost, which cost may be included by Landlord in Project Expenses. Landlord
shall replace, at Tenant's cost, lamps, starters and ballasts for non-Building
standard lighting fixtures within the Premises.
6.1.3 Landlord shall provide city water from the regular Building
outlets for drinking, lavatory and toilet purposes.
6.1.4 Landlord shall provide janitorial services Monday through
Friday except the date of observation of the Holidays, in and about the Premises
and window washing services in a manner consistent with other first-class office
buildings in the Santa Monica, California area.
6.2 Overstandard Tenant Use. Except as approved by Landlord as part of
-----------------------
the "Tenant Improvements," as that term is defined in Section 2.1 of the Tenant
Work Letter, Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior written consent, use
heat-generating machines, machines other than normal fractional horsepower
office machines, or equipment or lighting other than Building standard lights in
the Premises, which may affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air
conditioning system or increase the water normally furnished for the Premises by
Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease. If such consent is
given, Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air conditioning
units or other facilities in the Premises, including supplementary or additional
metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation,
operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment and
other similar charges, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing by
Landlord. If Tenant uses water, electricity, heat or air conditioning in excess
of that supplied by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord, upon billing, the cost of such excess
-12-
consumption, the cost of the installation, operation, and maintenance of
equipment which is installed in order to supply such excess consumption, and the
cost of the increased wear and tear on existing equipment caused by such excess
consumption; and Landlord may install devices to separately meter any increased
use and in such event Tenant shall pay the increased cost directly to Landlord,
on demand, including the cost of such additional metering devices. If Tenant
desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning during hours other than
those for which Landlord is obligated to supply such utilities pursuant to the
terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall give Landlord such prior
notice, as Landlord shall from time to time establish as appropriate, of
Tenant's desired use and Landlord shall supply such utilities to Tenant at such
hourly cost to Tenant as Landlord shall from time to time establish. Amounts
payable by Tenant to Landlord for such use of additional utilities shall be
deemed Additional Rent hereunder and shall be billed on a monthly basis.
6.3 Interruption of Use. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable
-------------------
for damages, by abatement of Rent or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay
in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services),
or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or
delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by repairs,
replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by
inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building or
Project after reasonable effort to do so, by any accident or casualty
whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause
beyond Landlord's reasonable control; and such failures or delays or diminution
shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant's use
and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent or performing
any of its obligations under this Lease. Furthermore, Landlord shall not be
liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for
injury to, or interference with, Tenant's business, including, without
limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or
incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth
in this Article 6, including, but not limited to, a failure to provide
telecommunications, including telephone risers. Landlord may comply with
voluntary controls or guidelines promulgated by any governmental entity relating
to the use or conservation of energy, water, gas, light or electricity or the
reduction of automobile or other emissions without creating any liability of
Landlord to Tenant under this Lease, provided that the Premises are not thereby
rendered untenantable.
6.4 Rent Abatement. If Landlord fails to perform the obligations required
--------------
of Landlord under the terms of this Lease and such failure causes all or a
portion of the Premises to be untenantable and unusable by Tenant and such
failure relates to the nonfunctioning of the heat, ventilation, and air
conditioning system in the Premises, the electricity in the Premises, the
nonfunctioning of the elevator service to the Premises, or a failure to provide
access to the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the "Initial
Notice"), specifying such failure to perform by Landlord (the "Landlord
Default"). If Landlord has not cured such Landlord Default within five (5)
business days after the receipt of the Initial Notice (the "Eligibility
Period"), Tenant may deliver an additional notice to Landlord (the "Additional
Notice"), specifying such Landlord Default and Tenant's intention to xxxxx the
payment of Rent under this Lease. If Landlord does not cure such Landlord
Default within five (5) business days of receipt of the Additional Notice,
Tenant may, upon written notice to Landlord, immediately xxxxx Rent payable
under this Lease for that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable and not
used by Tenant, for the period beginning on the date five (5) business days
after the Initial Notice to the earlier of the date Landlord cures such Landlord
Default or the date Tenant recommences the use of such portion of the Premises.
Such right to xxxxx Rent shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy at law or
in equity for a Landlord Default. Except as provided in this Section 6.4,
nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused
from paying Rent due hereunder.
ARTICLE 7
---------
REPAIRS
-------
Tenant shall, at Tenant's own expense, keep the Premises, including all
improvements, fixtures and furnishings therein, in good order, repair and
condition at all times during the Lease Term. In addition, Tenant shall, at
Tenant's own expense, but under the supervision and subject
-13-
to the prior approval of Landlord, and within any reasonable period of time
specified by Landlord, promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises
and replace or repair all damaged, broken, or worn fixtures and appurtenances;
provided however, that, at Landlord's option, or if Tenant fails to make such
repairs, Landlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, and
Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof, including a percentage of the cost
thereof (to be uniformly established for the Building and/or the Project)
sufficient to reimburse Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, fees and
other costs or expenses arising from Landlord's involvement with such repairs
and replacements forthwith upon being billed for same. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the exterior walls,
foundation and roof of the Building, the structural portions of the floors of
the Building, and the electrical, plumbing, HVAC and other base Building systems
and equipment serving the Premises and/or the Building, except to the extent
that such repairs are required due to the negligence or wilful misconduct of
Tenant; provided, however, that if such repairs are due to the negligence of
Tenant, Landlord shall nevertheless make such repairs at Tenant's expense, or,
if covered by Landlord's insurance, Tenant shall only be obligated to pay any
deductible in connection therewith. Landlord may, but shall not be required to,
enter the Premises at all reasonable times to make such repairs, alterations,
improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Project or to any equipment
located in the Project as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as Landlord
may be required to do by governmental or quasi-governmental authority or court
order or decree. Tenant hereby waives and releases its right to make repairs at
Landlord's expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or
under any similar law, statute, or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
ARTICLE 8
---------
ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
-------------------------
8.1 Landlord's Consent to Alterations. Tenant may not make any
---------------------------------
improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises (collectively,
the "Alterations") without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord
to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld by Landlord; provided however, that Tenant may make
strictly cosmetic changes to the finish work in the Premises, not requiring any
structural or other substantial modifications to the Premises, upon thirty (30)
days prior notice to Landlord. The construction of the initial improvements to
the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Tenant Work Letter and not
the terms of this Article 8.
8.2 Manner of Construction. Landlord may impose, as a condition of its
----------------------
consent to any and all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the
Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem
desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that upon Landlord's
request, Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, remove such Alterations upon the
expiration or any early termination of the Lease Term, and/or the requirement
that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors, materials, mechanics and
materialmen selected by Landlord. Tenant shall construct such Alterations and
perform such repairs in conformance with any and all applicable federal, state,
county or municipal laws, rules and regulations and pursuant to a valid building
permit, issued by the City of Santa Xxxxxx, all in conformance with Landlord's
construction rules and regulations. All work with respect to any Alterations
must be done in a good and workmanlike manner and diligently prosecuted to
completion to the end that the Premises shall at all times be a complete unit
except during the period of work. In performing the work of any such
Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner so as not to
obstruct access to the Project or any portion thereof, by any other tenant of
the Project, and so as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants
in the Project, or interfere with the labor force working in the Project. In
addition to Tenant's obligations under Article 9 of this Lease, upon completion
of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded
in the office of the Recorder of the County of Los Angeles in accordance with
Section 3093 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor
statute, and Tenant shall deliver to the Project management office a
reproducible copy of the "as built" drawings of the Alterations.
-14-
8.3 Payment for Improvements. In the event Tenant orders any Alterations
------------------------
or repair work directly from Landlord, or from the contractor selected by
Landlord, the charges for such work shall be deemed Additional Rent under this
Lease, payable within five (5) days of billing therefor, either periodically
during construction or upon the substantial completion of such work, at
Landlord's option. Upon completion of such work, Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord evidence of payment, contractors' affidavits and full and final waivers
of all liens for labor, services or materials. Tenant shall pay to Landlord a
percentage of the cost of such work sufficient to compensate Landlord for all
overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs and expenses arising from
Landlord's involvement with such work, not to exceed five percent (5%) of the
cost of the work.
8.4 Construction Insurance. In the event that Tenant makes any
----------------------
Alterations Tenant agrees to carry "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount
approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such
other insurance as Landlord may require, it being understood and agreed that all
of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this
Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, Landlord may, in its
discretion, require Tenant to obtain a lien and completion bond or some
alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to
ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-
obligee.
8.5 Landlord's Property. All Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or
-------------------
equipment which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises, and all
signs installed in, on or about the Premises, from time to time, shall be at the
sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become the property of Landlord, except
that Tenant may remove any Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment
which Tenant can substantiate to Landlord have not been paid for with any Tenant
improvement allowance funds provided to Tenant by Landlord, provided Tenant
repairs any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal.
Furthermore, if Landlord, as a condition to Landlord's consent to any
Alteration, requires that Tenant remove any Alteration upon the expiration or
early termination of the Lease Term, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant
prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination
of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant's expense, to remove such Alterations
and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal.
If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by
the removal of any Alterations, Landlord may do so and may charge the cost
thereof to Tenant.
ARTICLE 9
---------
COVENANT AGAINST LIENS
----------------------
Tenant has no authority or power to cause or permit any lien or encumbrance
of any kind whatsoever, whether created by act of Tenant, operation of law or
otherwise, to attach to or be placed upon the Project or Premises, and any and
all liens and encumbrances created by Tenant shall attach to Tenant's interest
only. Landlord shall have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the
Premises any notice which it deems necessary for protection from such liens.
Tenant covenants and agrees not to suffer or permit any lien of mechanics or
materialmen or others to be placed against the Project, the Building or the
Premises, or any portion thereof, with respect to work or services claimed to
have been performed for or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant or
the Premises, and, in case of any such lien attaching or notice of any lien,
Tenant covenants and agrees to cause it to be immediately released and removed
of record. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease,
in the event that such lien is not released and removed on or before the date
occurring five (5) days after notice of such lien is delivered by Landlord to
Tenant, Landlord, at its sole option, may immediately take all action necessary
to release and remove such lien, without any duty to investigate the validity
thereof, and all sums, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs, incurred by Landlord in connection with such lien shall be deemed
Additional Rent under this Lease and shall immediately be due and payable by
Tenant.

INSURANCE
---------
10.1 Indemnification and Waiver. To the extent not prohibited by law,
--------------------------
Landlord, its members and their respective partners, subpartners, officers,
agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors (collectively,
"Landlord Parties") shall not be liable for, any damage either to person or
property or resulting from the loss of use thereof, which damage is sustained by
Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Landlord
Parties from any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including
without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) from any cause
arising out of or relating (directly or indirectly) to this Lease, the tenancy
created under this Lease, or the Premises, provided that the terms of the
foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the gross negligence or wilful misconduct
of Landlord. The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the expiration
or sooner termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability
occurring prior to such expiration or termination. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Lease, nothing in this Lease shall impose any
obligations on Tenant or Landlord to be responsible or liable for, and each
hereby releases the other from all liability for, consequential damages other
than those consequential damages incurred by Landlord in connection with a
holdover of the Premises by Tenant after the expiration or earlier termination
of this Lease.
10.2 Tenant's Compliance with Landlord's Fire and Casualty Insurance.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Tenant shall, at Tenant's expense, comply with all insurance company
requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises. If Tenant's conduct or use
of the Premises causes any increase in the premium for such insurance policies
then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such increase. Tenant, at Tenant's
expense, shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations or requirements of the
American Insurance Association (formerly the National Board of Fire
Underwriters) and with any similar body.
10.3 Tenant's Insurance. Tenant shall maintain the following coverages in
------------------
the following amounts.
10.3.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance covering the insured
against claims of bodily injury, personal injury and property damage arising out
of Tenant's operations, assumed liabilities or use of the Premises, including a
Broad Form endorsement covering the insuring provisions of this Lease and the
performance by Tenant of the indemnity agreements set forth in Section 10.1 of
this Lease, for limits of liability not less than:
Bodily Injury and

property on the Premises installed by, for, or at the expense of Tenant, (ii)
the Tenant Improvements and any other improvements which exist in the Premises
as of the Lease Commencement Date (excluding the "Base Building," as that term
is defined hereinbelow), and (iii) all other improvements, alterations and
additions to the Premises. The term "Base Building," for purposes of this
Lease, shall mean the structural portions of the Building, and the public
restrooms and the systems and equipment located in the internal core of the
Building on the floor or floors on which the Premises are located. Such
insurance shall be written on an "all risks" of physical loss or damage basis,
for the full replacement cost value new without deduction for depreciation of
the covered items and in amounts that meet any co-insurance clauses of the
policies of insurance and shall include a vandalism and malicious mischief
endorsement, sprinkler leakage coverage and earthquake sprinkler leakage
coverage.

10.3.3 Workers Compensation Insurance in form and with limits in
accordance with the laws of the State of California, including Occupational
Disease Insurance, and Voluntary Compensation Insurance, and Employer's
Liability Insurance with limits not less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00) per occurrence; per employee for disease; and in the aggregate for
disease.
10.4 Form of Policies. The minimum limits of policies of insurance
----------------
required of Tenant under this Lease shall in no event limit the liability of
Tenant under this Lease. Such insurance shall (i) name Landlord, Xxxxxx &
Company, and any other party Landlord reasonably specifies, as an additional
insured; (ii) specifically cover the liability assumed by Tenant under this
Lease, including, but not limited to, Tenant's obligations under Section 10.1 of
this Lease; (iii) be issued by an insurance company having a rating of not less
than A-X in Best's Insurance Guide or which is otherwise acceptable to Landlord
and licensed to do business in the State of California; (iv) be primary
insurance as to all claims thereunder and provide that any insurance carried by
Landlord is excess and is non-contributing with any insurance requirement of
Tenant; (v) provide that said insurance shall not be canceled or coverage
changed unless thirty (30) days' prior written notice shall have been given to
Landlord and any mortgagee of Landlord; and (vi) contain a cross-liability
endorsement or severability of interest clause acceptable to Landlord. Tenant
shall deliver said policy or policies or certificates thereof to Landlord on or
before the Lease Commencement Date and at least thirty (30) days before the
expiration dates thereof. Tenant shall be permitted to provide the insurance
required under this Lease by obtaining a blanket policy or policies to be
maintained by Tenant. The coverage afforded to Landlord under this Lease shall
in no way be limited, diminished or reduced because of the fact that such policy
or policies are blanket in nature.
10.5 Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant agree to have their respective
-----------
insurance companies issuing property damage insurance waive any rights of
subrogation that such companies may have against Landlord or Tenant, as the case
may be, so long as the insurance carried by Landlord and Tenant, respectively,
is not invalidated thereby. As long as such waivers of subrogation are
contained in their respective insurance policies, Landlord and Tenant hereby
waive any right that either may have against the other on account of any loss or
damage to their respective property to the extent such loss or damage is
insurable under policies of insurance for fire and all risk coverage, theft, or
other similar insurance.
10.6 Additional Insurance Obligations. Tenant shall carry and maintain
--------------------------------
during the entire Lease Term, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, such other
reasonable types of insurance coverage and in such reasonable amounts covering
the Premises and Tenant's operations therein, as may be reasonably requested by
Landlord, but in no event in excess of the amounts and types of insurance then
being required by landlords of other Comparable Buildings.

----------
DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
----------------------
11.1 Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord. Tenant shall promptly
----------------------------------------
notify Landlord of any damage to the Premises resulting from fire or any other
casualty. If the Base Building or any Common Areas serving or providing access
to the Premises shall be damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord shall
promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment
or other matters beyond Landlord's reasonable control, and subject to all other
terms of this Article 11, restore the Base Building and such Common Areas. Such
restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Base Building
and the Common Areas prior to the casualty, except for modifications required by
zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the
Building or Project or any other modifications to the Base Building or the
Common Areas deemed desirable by Landlord, provided that access to the Premises
and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired.
Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, repair any injury or damage to
the Premises which is not part of the Base Building, in accordance with Article
8, above, and shall return the Premises to their original condition. Landlord
shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its
visitors, or injury to Tenant's business resulting in any way from such damage
or the repair of the Base Building or the Common Areas; provided,
-17-
however, that if such fire or other casualty shall have damaged the Base
Building or Common Areas necessary to Tenant's occupancy, and if such damage is
not the result of the negligence or wilful misconduct of Tenant or Tenant's
employees, contractors, licensees, or invitees, Landlord shall allow Tenant a
proportionate abatement of Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises
are unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease as the sole
result of the damage to the Base Building or the Common Areas, and not occupied
by Tenant as a result thereof.
11.2 Landlord's Option to Repair. Notwithstanding the terms of Section
---------------------------
11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the
Premises, Building and/or Project; and instead terminate this Lease by notifying
Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of
damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant ninety (90) days
to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or
Project shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, whether or not the
Premises are affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present:
(i) repairs to be made by Landlord cannot reasonably be completed within one
hundred twenty (120) days after the date of damage (when such repairs are made
without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any
mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the
Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion
thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground
lease, as the case may be; (iii) the damage which is required to be repaired by
Landlord is not fully covered, except for deductible amounts, by Landlord's
insurance policies; or (iv) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other
than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the
Project; provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this
Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as provided above, and the
repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one
hundred eighty (180) days after being commenced, Tenant may elect not later than
ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by
written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice,
which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days
after the date such notice is given by Tenant. Furthermore, if neither Landlord
nor Tenant has terminated this Lease, and the repairs are not actually completed
within such 180-day period, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease
during the first five (5) business days of each calendar month following the end
of such period until such time as the repairs are complete, by notice to
Landlord (the "Damage Termination Notice"), effective as of a date set forth in
the Damage Termination Notice (the "Damage Termination Date"), which Damage
Termination Date shall not be less than ten (10) business days following the end
of each such month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant delivers a Damage
Termination Notice to Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right to suspend
the occurrence of the Damage Termination Date for a period ending thirty (30)
days after the Damage Termination Date set forth in the Damage Termination
Notice by delivering to Tenant, within five (5) business days of Landlord's
receipt of the Damage Termination Notice, a certificate of Landlord's contractor
responsible for the repair of the damage certifying that it is such contractor's
good faith judgment that the repairs shall be substantially completed within
thirty (30) days after the Damage Termination Date. If repairs shall be
substantially completed prior to the expiration of such thirty-day period, then
the Damage Termination Notice shall be of no force or effect, but if the repairs
shall not be substantially completed within such thirty-day period, then this
Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of such thirty-day period. At any
time, from time to time, after the date occurring sixty (60) days after the date
of the damage, Tenant may request that Landlord inform Tenant of Landlord's
reasonable opinion of the date of completion of the repairs and Landlord shall
respond to such request within five (5) business days.
11.3 Waiver of Statutory Provisions. The provisions of this Lease,
------------------------------
including this Article 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and
Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part
of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and any statute or regulation of
the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and
1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations
concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between
the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect,
shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or
any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project.
-18-
11.4 Damage Near End of Term. In the event that the Premises, the
-----------------------
Building, or the Project is destroyed or damaged to any substantial extent
during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, then notwithstanding
anything contained in this Article 11, Landlord shall have the option to
terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Tenant of the exercise of such
option within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction, in which event
this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such notice. In the
event that the Premises, the Building, or the Project is destroyed or damaged to
any substantial extent during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term such
that Tenant cannot use the Premises for the use permitted hereunder, then
notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 11, Tenant shall have the
option to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord of the
exercise of such option within thirty (30) days after such damage or
destruction, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date
of such notice. In the event that Landlord or Tenant terminates this Lease
pursuant to this Section 11.4, Tenant shall pay the Base Rent and Additional
Rent, properly apportioned up to such date of damage, and both parties hereto
shall thereafter be freed and discharged of all further obligations hereunder,
except as provided for in provisions of this Lease which by their terms survive
the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
ARTICLE 12
----------
NONWAIVER
---------
No waiver of any provision of this Lease shall be implied by any failure of
Landlord or Tenant to enforce any remedy on account of the violation of such
provision, even if such violation shall continue or be repeated subsequently,
and any waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any provision of this Lease may only be
in writing. Additionally, no express waiver shall affect any provision other
than the one specified in such waiver and then only for the time and in the
manner specifically stated. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after
the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease
Term or of Tenant's right of possession hereunder, or after the giving of any
notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice
given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the
service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for
possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and
the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or
judgment.
ARTICLE 13
----------
CONDEMNATION
------------
If the whole or more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises,
Building or Project shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by
any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if
Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by
eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this
Lease upon ninety (90) days' notice, provided such notice is given no later than
one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such taking, condemnation,
reconfiguration, vacation, deed or other instrument. If more than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the rentable square feet of the Premises is taken, or if access
to the Premises is substantially impaired, Tenant shall have the option to
terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days' notice, provided such notice is
given no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such taking.
Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection
therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim
available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant's personal property and fixtures
belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term
pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such
claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with
respect to the Building or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable
separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such
termination, or the date of such taking, whichever shall first occur. If any
part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated,
the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all
rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California
Code of Civil Procedure.

ARTICLE 14
----------
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
-------------------------
14.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of
---------
Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to
attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit
any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by
operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of
the Premises by any persons other than Tenant and its employees (all of the
foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as "Transfers" and
any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter
sometimes referred to as a "Transferee"). If Tenant desires Landlord's consent
to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the
"Transfer Notice") shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the
Transfer, which shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than one
hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice,
(ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the
"Subject Space"), (iii) all of the material terms of the proposed Transfer and
the consideration therefor (including calculation of the "Transfer Premium", as
that term is defined in Section 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer),
the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing
executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer,
including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such
Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, and (iv)
current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer,
partner or owner thereof, and any other information reasonably required by
Landlord to determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of
the proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee's business and proposed use
of the Subject Space, and such other information as Landlord may reasonably
require. Any Transfer made without Landlord's prior written consent shall, at
Landlord's option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord's
option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Whether or not
Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord's review
and processing fees, as well as any reasonable legal fees incurred by Landlord,
within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord, which fees shall not
exceed One Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($1,000.00) for a Transfer in the
ordinary course of business.
14.2 Landlord's Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its
------------------
consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the
terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other
reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it
shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord
to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following
apply:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in
a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the
Project, or would be a significantly less prestigious occupant of the Building
than Tenant;
14.2.2 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or
instrumentality thereof;
14.2.3 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth
and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities involved under the
Lease on the date consent is requested;
14.2.4 The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another
lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right
to cancel its lease;
14.2.5 The terms of the proposed Transfer will allow the Transferee
to exercise a right of renewal, right of expansion, right of first offer, or
other similar right held by Tenant (or will allow the Transferee to occupy space
leased by Tenant pursuant to any such right); or
14.2.7 Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which
directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
with, the proposed Transferee, (i) occupies space in the Project at the time of
the request for consent, (ii) is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the
Project at such time, or (iii) has negotiated with Landlord during the three
(3)-month period immediately preceding the Transfer Notice.
-20-
If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2
(and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section 14.4
of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord's consent, but
not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer
of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and
conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to
Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any
material changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the
Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to
refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, or (ii) which would
cause the proposed Transfer to be more favorable to the Transferee than the
terms set forth in Tenant's original Transfer Notice, Tenant shall again submit
the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14
(including Landlord's right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this
Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or
any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or
delayed its consent under Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted
------------
unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be declaratory
----------
judgment and an injunction for the relief sought without any monetary damages,
and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies on its own behalf and, to the extent
permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.
14.3 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition
----------------
thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord forty percent (40%) of any "Transfer Premium," as that term is defined
in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee. "Transfer
Premium" shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by
such Transferee in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant
under this Lease on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the
Premises is transferred. "Transfer Premium" shall also include, but not be
limited to, key money and bonus money paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection
with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services
rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment,
or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such
Transfer.
14.4 Landlord's Option as to Subject Space. Notwithstanding anything to
-------------------------------------
the contrary contained in this Article 14, in the event Tenant contemplates an
assignment or a sublease, when aggregated with any other subleases, exceeds
three thousand (3,000) rentable square feet (or in the event of any other
Transfer or Transfers entered into by Tenant as a subterfuge in order to avoid
the terms of this Section 14.4), Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the
"Intention to Transfer Notice") of such contemplated Transfer (whether or not
the contemplated Transferee or the terms of such contemplated Transfer have been
determined). The Intention to Transfer Notice shall specify the portion of and
amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which Tenant intends to Transfer
(the "Contemplated Transfer Space"), the contemplated date of commencement of
the Contemplated Transfer (the "Contemplated Effective Date"), and the
contemplated length of the term of such contemplated Transfer, and shall specify
that such Intention to Transfer Notice is delivered to Landlord pursuant to this
Section 14.4 in order to allow Landlord to elect to recapture the Contemplated
Transfer Space for the term set forth in the Intention to Transfer Notice.
Thereafter, Landlord shall have the option, by giving written notice to Tenant
within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Intention to Transfer Notice, to
recapture the Contemplated Transfer Space. In the event such option is
exercised by Landlord, this Lease shall be canceled and terminated with respect
to such Contemplated Transfer Space as of the Contemplated Effective Date until
the last day of the term of the contemplated Transfer as set forth in the
Intention to Transfer Notice. In the event of a recapture by Landlord, if this
Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent
reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square
feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet
contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue
thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the
parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. If Landlord declines,
or fails to timely elect to recapture such Contemplated Transfer Space under
this Section 14.4, then, subject to the other terms of this Article 14, for a
period of nine (9) months (the "Nine Month Period") commencing on the last day
of such thirty (30) day period, Landlord shall not have any right to recapture
the Contemplated Transfer Space with respect to any Transfer made during the
Nine Month Period, provided that any such Transfer is substantially on the terms
set forth in the Intention to Transfer
-21-
Notice, and provided further that any such Transfer shall be subject to the
remaining terms of this Article 14. If such a Transfer is not so consummated
within the Nine Month Period (or if a Transfer is so consummated, then upon the
expiration of the term of any Transfer of such Contemplated Transfer Space
consummated within such Nine Month Period), Tenant shall again be required to
submit a new Intention to Transfer Notice to Landlord with respect any
contemplated Transfer, as provided above in this Section 14.4.
14.5 Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the
------------------
terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived
or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further
Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to
Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all
documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to
Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Landlord's request a complete
statement, certified by an independent certified public accountant, or Tenant's
chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer
Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no
Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto,
whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall relieve Tenant or any
guarantor of the Lease from liability under this Lease.
14.6 Additional Transfers. For purposes of this Lease, the term
--------------------
"Transfer" shall also include (i) if Tenant is a partnership, the withdrawal or
change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of fifty percent (50%) or
more of the partners, or transfer of fifty percent (50%) or more of partnership
interests, within a twelve (12)-month period, or the dissolution of the
partnership without immediate reconstitution thereof, and (ii) if Tenant is a
closely held corporation (i.e., whose stock is not publicly held and not traded
----
through an exchange or over the counter), (A) the dissolution, merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant or, (B) the sale or other
transfer of more than an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares
of Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or death)
within a twelve (12)-month period, or (C) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation or
pledge of more than an aggregate of fifty percent (50%) of the value of the
unencumbered assets of Tenant within a twelve (12)-month period.
14.7 Non-Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
-------------
this Lease, neither (i) an assignment to a transferee of all or substantially
all of the assets of Tenant, (ii) an assignment of the Premises to a transferee
which is the resulting entity of a merger or consolidation of Tenant with
another entity, (iii) a change in ownership or control resulting from an
offering of common stock or similar securities (whether as a public offering or
a private placement to one more groups of investors), nor (iv) an assignment or
subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant (an
entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with,
Tenant), shall be deemed a Transfer under Article 14 of this Lease, provided
----------
that Tenant notifies Landlord of any such assignment or sublease and promptly
supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by
Landlord regarding such transfer or transferee as set forth in items (i) through
(iv) above, that such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Tenant to
avoid its obligations under this Lease, and that such transferee or affiliate
shall have a net worth (not including goodwill as an asset) computed in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (the "Net Worth") at
least equal to the greater of (A) the Net Worth of Tenant immediately prior to
such assignment or sublease, or (B) the Net Worth on the date of this Lease of
the original named Tenant. The transferee in items (i) through (iv), above,
shall be referred to as an "Affiliate." "Control," as used in this Section
-------
14.7, shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one
----
percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote,
in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of
the voting interest in, any person or entity.
ARTICLE 15
----------
SURRENDER OF PREMISES;
----------------------
REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
-------------------------
15.1 Surrender of Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent
---------------------
or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an
acceptance by
-22-
Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically
acknowledged in a writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the
Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a
surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not
the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery
Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon
request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or
other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or
a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of
Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or
subtenancies affecting the Premises.
15.2 Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant. Upon the expiration of the
------------------------------------
Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject
to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the
Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took
possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear
and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord
hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without
expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris
and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, free-standing cabinet work,
and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed
by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other
persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require
to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the
Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
ARTICLE 16
----------
HOLDING OVER
------------
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term hereof, with or
without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from
month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension
for any further term, and in such case Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly
rate equal to twice the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of
the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month tenancy shall be subject
to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein.
Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord
to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to
require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided
in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The
provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a
waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law.
If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of
this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom,
Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all
loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and liability resulting from
such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any
claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender
(including such tenant's lost profits) and any lost profits to Landlord
resulting therefrom.
ARTICLE 17
----------
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
---------------------
Within seven (7) business days following a request in writing by Landlord,
Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as
submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit D, attached
hereto (or such other form as may be reasonably required by any prospective
mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof), indicating
therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also
contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord's
mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever
other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. Failure of
Tenant to timely execute and deliver such estoppel certificate or other
instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment
by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and
correct, without exception.
-23-
ARTICLE 18
----------
SUBORDINATION
-------------
This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future
ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any
first mortgage or trust deed, now or hereafter in force against the Building or
Project, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations
and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon
the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such
mortgages or trust deeds, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying
leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Landlord's
delivery to Tenant of commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement(s) in
favor of Tenant from any ground lessors, mortgage holders or lien holders of
Landlord who later come into existence at any time prior to the expiration of
the Lease Term shall be in consideration of, and a condition precedent to,
Tenant's agreement to be bound by the terms of this Article 18. Tenant
----------
covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the
foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof, to attorn, without any
deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the purchaser or any successors thereto
upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof if so requested to do so
by such purchaser, and to recognize such purchaser as the lessor under this
Lease. Tenant shall, within five (5) days of request by Landlord, execute such
further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to
evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such
mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the
provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or
purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely
affect this Lease and the obligations hereunder in the event of any foreclosure
proceeding or sale.
ARTICLE 19

19.1.2 Any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other
provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by
Tenant where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof from Landlord to Tenant, provided that if the nature of such default is

then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such
cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to cure such default;
or
19.1.3 To the extent permitted by law, a general assignment by
Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease for the benefit of creditors, or the filing
by or against Tenant or any guarantor of any proceeding under an insolvency or

-24-
19.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default
---------------------
by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to
Landlord at law or in equity, the option to pursue any one or more of the
following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive,
without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately
surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may,
without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or
arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or
remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part
thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor;
and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
(i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent
which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the
time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves
could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been
reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for
all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its
obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things
would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited
to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of
remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether
for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain
a new tenant; and
(v) At Landlord's election, such other amounts in addition
to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by
applicable law.
The term "rent" as used in this Section 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean
all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of
this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others. As used in Paragraphs 19.2.1(i)
and (ii), above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing
interest at the rate set forth in Article 25 of this Lease, but in no case
greater than the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law. As used in
Paragraph 19.2.1(iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed
by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of
San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
19.2.2 Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil
Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach
and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if
Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by
Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce
all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
all Rent as it becomes due.
19.3 Sublessees of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate
--------------------
this Lease on account of any default by Tenant as set forth in this Article 19,
Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses,
concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by
Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord's sole discretion, succeed
to Tenant's interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements.
In the event of Landlord's election to succeed to Tenant's interest in any such
subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date
of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in
the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
-25-
ARTICLE 20
----------
ATTORNEYS' FEES
---------------
If either party commences litigation against the other for the specific
performance of this Lease, for damages for the breach hereof or otherwise for
enforcement of any remedy hereunder, the parties hereto agree to and hereby do
waive any right to a trial by jury and, in the event of any such commencement of
litigation, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other
party such costs and reasonable attorneys' fees as may have been incurred.
ARTICLE 21
----------
LETTER OF CREDIT
----------------
21.1 Letter of Credit. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord concurrently with
----------------
Tenant's execution of this Lease, an unconditional, clean, irrevocable letter of
credit (the "L-C") in an initial amount equal to the sum of Four Hundred
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($400,000.00) (the "L-C Amount"), which L-C shall be
issued by Union Bank of California, and which L-C shall be in a form and content
as set forth in Exhibit F, attached hereto. Tenant shall pay all expenses,
points and/or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the L-C.
21.2 Application of the L-C. The L-C shall be held by Landlord as
----------------------
security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants, and
conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the initial
Lease Term. The L-C shall not be mortgaged, assigned or encumbered in any
manner whatsoever by Tenant without the prior written consent of Landlord. If
Tenant defaults with respect to any provisions of this Lease, including, but not
limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent, or if Tenant fails
to renew the L-C at least thirty (30) days before its expiration, Landlord may,
but shall not be required to, draw upon all or any portion of the L-C for
payment of any Rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any
amount that Landlord may reasonably spend or may become obligated to spend by
reason of Tenant's default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or
damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant's default, provided that if
Tenant fails to renew the L-C at least thirty (30) days before its expiration,
then Landlord shall have the right to draw upon the entire L-C. The use,
application or retention of the L-C, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall
not (a) prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by
this Lease or by law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be
required to proceed against the L-C, nor (b) operate as a limitation on any
recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Any amount of the L-C
which is drawn upon by Landlord, but is not used or applied by Landlord shall be
held by Landlord and deemed a security deposit (the "L-C Security Deposit"). If
any portion of the L-C is drawn upon, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after
written demand therefor, either (i) deposit cash with Landlord (which cash shall
be applied by Landlord to the L-C Security Deposit) in an amount sufficient to
cause the sum of the L-C Security Deposit and the amount of the remaining L-C to
be equivalent to the amount of the L-C then required under this Lease or (ii)
reinstate the L-C to the amount then required under this Lease, and if any
portion of the L-C Security Deposit is used or applied, Tenant shall, within
five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord (which
cash shall be applied by Landlord to the L-C Security Deposit) in an amount
sufficient to restore the L-C Security Deposit to the amount then required under
this Lease, and Tenant's failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease.
Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer or mortgage its
interest in the Project and the Building and in this Lease and Tenant agrees
that in the event of any such transfer or mortgage, Landlord shall have the
right to transfer or assign the L-C Security Deposit and/or the L-C to the
transferee or mortgagee, and in the event of such transfer, Tenant shall look
solely to such transferee or mortgagee for the return of the L-C Security
Deposit and/or the L-C. If Tenant is not then in default under this Lease, the
L-C Amount shall be reduced during the initial Lease Term as follows: (i)
commencing on the first day of the fourth (4th) Lease Year, the L-C Amount shall
be reduced to Three Hundred Twenty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($320,000.00);
(ii) commencing on the first day of the fifth (5th) Lease Year, the L-C Amount
shall be reduced to Two Hundred Forty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($240,000.00);
(iii) commencing on the
-26-
first day of the sixth (6th) Lease Year, the L-C Amount shall be reduced to One
Hundred Sixty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($160,000.00); and (iv) commencing on
the first day of the seventh (7th) Lease Year, the L-C Amount shall be reduced
to Eighty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($80,000.00) and shall remain at such
amount during the remainder of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the previous
sentence, in the event that as of the first day of the fourth (4th) Lease Year
and continuing thereafter, Tenant has a net worth of at least Five Hundred
Million Dollars ($500,000,000.00) and an annual net income of at least Thirty
Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00) (collectively, the "Financial Requirement"),
the L-C Amount shall reduce on the first day of the fourth (4th) Lease Year to
Two Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) and on the first day of
the fifth (5th) Lease Year, the L-C Amount shall reduce to Zero Dollars ($0.00);
provided that in the event that following the first day of the fourth (4th)
Lease Year, Tenant does not meet the Financial Requirement, then the L-C Amount
shall be as set forth in the preceding sentence. If Tenant shall fully and
faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the L-C
Security Deposit and/or the L-C, or any balance thereof, shall be returned to
Tenant within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the initial Lease
Term.
ARTICLE 22
----------
SUBSTITUTION OF OTHER PREMISES
------------------------------
Landlord shall have the privilege of moving Tenant to other space in the
Building comparable to the Premises, and all terms hereof shall apply to the new
space with equal force; provided that Tenant's then existing monetary
obligations under this Lease shall not be increased as a result of such
relocation of the Premises. In such event, Landlord shall give Tenant at least
ninety (90) days prior notice, shall provide Tenant, at Landlord's sole cost and
expense, with tenant improvements at least equal in quality to those in the
Premises and comparable in layout, decor and nature and shall move Tenant's
effects to the new space at Landlord's sole cost and expense at such time and in
such manner as to inconvenience Tenant as little as practicable. In addition,
Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by Tenant in connection with such relocation (including, but not limited to, the
costs of reasonable supplies of replacement stationery, marketing materials,
announcements of new address plus postage and computer, data transmission and
telephone installations, cabling and wiring), within thirty (30) days of
Landlord's receipt of an invoice therefor. Simultaneously with such relocation
of the Premises, the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this
Lease stating the relocation of the Premises.
ARTICLE 23
----------
SIGNS
-----
23.1 General. Tenant's identifying signage shall be provided by Landlord,
-------
at Tenant's cost, and such signage shall be comparable to that used by Landlord
for other similar floors in the Building and shall comply with Landlord's
Building standard signage program. Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names
or advertisements which are installed and that have not been separately approved
by Landlord may be removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of
Tenant. Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Project
or the Common Areas. Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same
are located behind the Landlord-approved window coverings for the Building), or
other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, shall be
subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole discretion. Tenant's
identifying entry on the building directory located in the lobby of the Building
shall be provided by Landlord, at Tenant's cost.
23.2 Building Directory. A building directory will be located in the
------------------
lobby of the Building. Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, to designate name strips to be displayed under Tenant's entry in such
directory at the rate of two (2) strips per each 1,000 rentable square feet of
the Premises.

ARTICLE 24
----------
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
-------------------
Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the
Premises which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or
other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may
hereafter be enacted or promulgated (collectively, "Applicable Laws"). At its
sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all such Applicable
Laws which relate to (i) Tenant's use of the Premises for non-general office
use, (ii) the Alterations or Tenant Improvements in the Premises, or (iii) the
"Base, Shell, and Core," as that term is defined in Section 1.1 of the Tenant
Work Letter, but, as to the Base, Shell, and Core, only to the extent such
obligations are triggered by Tenant's Alterations, the Tenant Improvements, or
Tenant's use of the Premises for non-general office use. Should any standard or
regulation now or hereafter be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by a state, federal
or local governmental body charged with the establishment, regulation and
enforcement of occupational, health or safety standards for employers,
employees, landlords or tenants, then Tenant agrees, at its sole cost and
expense, to comply promptly with such standards or regulations. The judgment of
any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial
action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has
violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as
between Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall comply with all Applicable Laws
relating to the Base, Shell, and Core, Project and Common Areas, provided that
compliance with such Applicable Laws is not the responsibility of Tenant under
this Lease, and provided further that Landlord's failure to comply therewith
would prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy
for the Premises, or would unreasonably or materially affect the safety of
Tenant's employees, create a significant health hazard for Tenant's employees,
or create a material liability for the Tenant. Landlord shall be permitted to
include in Operating Expenses any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under
this Article 24 to the extent consistent with, and amortized to the extent
required by, the terms of Section 4.2.3 above.
ARTICLE 25
----------
LATE CHARGES
------------
If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be
received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) days after written
notice from Landlord, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to
five percent (5%) of the overdue amount plus any attorneys' fees incurred by
Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due
hereunder. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to
require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies
hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as
limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge
described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid
within five (5) days after the date they are due shall bear interest from the
date when due until paid at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) eighteen
percent (18%) per annum or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT
----------------------------------------------------
26.1 Landlord's Cure. All covenants and agreements to be kept or
---------------
performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's
sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent. If Tenant shall fail
to perform any of its obligations under this Lease, within a reasonable time
after such performance is required by the terms of this Lease, Landlord may, but
shall not be obligated to, after reasonable prior notice to Tenant (except in
the case of an emergency), make any such payment or perform any such act on
Tenant's part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and
without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.
-28-
26.2 Tenant's Reimbursement. Except as may be specifically provided to
----------------------
the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within fifteen (15)
days after delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums
equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in
connection with the remedying by Landlord of Tenant's defaults pursuant to the
provisions of Section 26.1; and (ii) sums equal to all expenditures made and
obligations incurred by Landlord in collecting or attempting to collect the Rent
or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease
or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all legal fees and other
amounts so expended. Tenant's obligations under this Section 26.2 shall survive
the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term.
ARTICLE 27
----------
ENTRY BY LANDLORD
-----------------
Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times and upon reasonable
notice to Tenant (except in the case of an emergency) to enter the Premises to
(i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees
or tenants, or to the ground or underlying lessors; (iii) post notices of
nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building
if necessary to comply with current building codes or other applicable laws, or
for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 27, Landlord
may enter the Premises at any time to (A) perform services required of Landlord;
(B) take possession due to any breach of this Lease in the manner provided
herein; and (C) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant fails to perform.
Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent and may take
such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes. Tenant
hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or
interference with Tenant's business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or
quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For
each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to
unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's vaults, safes and
special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency,
Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to
open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord
in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or
unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or
constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises.
ARTICLE 28
----------
TENANT PARKING
--------------
Tenant hereby rents from Landlord, commencing on the Lease Commencement
Date, the amount of parking passes set forth in Section 9 of the Summary, on a
monthly basis throughout the Lease Term and any extension thereof, which parking
passes shall pertain to the Project parking facility. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, during the first (1st) Lease Year, Tenant shall have the right to
rent between nineteen (19) and the number of parking passes set forth in Section
9 of the Summary. Prior to the end of the first Lease Year, Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord notice specifying the number of unreserved parking passes
Tenant shall rent during the remainder of the Lease Term, which number shall not
be less than nineteen (19) nor more than the number of passes set forth in
Section 9 of the Summary. Commencing on the first day of the second Lease Year
and continuing throughout the remainder of the Lease Term, Tenant shall rent the
number of unreserved parking passes specified in Tenant's notice. In the event
that Tenant rents fewer than the number of passes set forth in Section 9 of the
Summary, Tenant shall have the right to rent additional unreserved parking
passes such that the total passes rented by Tenant does not exceed the number of
passes set forth in Section 9 of the Summary on an "as available basis," as
-29-
determined by Landlord in Landlord's sole discretion. In lieu of up to five (5)
unreserved parking passes, Tenant may rent passes for up to five (5) reserved
parking spaces in the Project parking facility, three (3) of which shall be on
the "P-1" Level and the remainder of which shall be on the "P-2" or "P-3"
levels. Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of such election no later
than the Lease Commencement Date, and Tenant shall thereafter during the
remainder of the Lease Term rent such number of reserved parking spaces. Tenant
shall have the right to rent additional passes for reserved or unreserved
parking spaces on an "as available" basis, as determined by Landlord. Tenant
shall pay to Landlord for automobile parking passes on a monthly basis the
prevailing rate charged from time to time for parking passes in the Project.
Tenant's continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant
abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for
the orderly operation and use of the Project parking facility and upon Tenant's
cooperation in seeing that Tenant's employees and visitors also comply with such
rules and regulations. Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the
size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Project parking
facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may,
without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent
under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project
parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such
construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may delegate its
responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking
operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord.
The parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to
Tenant solely for use by Tenant's own personnel and such passes may not be
transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without
Landlord's prior approval.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
------------------------
29.1 Binding Effect. Subject to all other provisions of this Lease, each
--------------
of the provisions of this Lease shall extend to and shall, as the case may
require, bind or inure to the benefit not only of Landlord and of Tenant, but
also of their respective successors or assigns, provided this clause shall not
permit any assignment by Tenant contrary to the provisions of Article 14 of this
Lease.
29.2 Modification of Lease. Should any current or prospective mortgagee
---------------------
or ground lessor for the Building or Project require a modification or
modifications of this Lease, which modification or modifications will not cause
an increased cost or expense to Tenant or in any other way materially and
adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder, then and in
such event, Tenant agrees that this Lease may be so modified and agrees to
execute whatever documents are reasonably required therefor and to deliver the
same to Landlord within ten (10) days following a request therefor. Should
Landlord or any such prospective mortgagee or ground lessor require execution of
a short form of Lease for recording, containing, among other customary
provisions, the names of the parties, a description of the Premises and the
Lease Term, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver such short form of Lease to
Landlord within ten (10) days following the request therefor.
29.3 Transfer of Landlord's Interest. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord
-------------------------------
has the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Project or
Building and in this Lease, and Tenant agrees that in the event of any such
transfer, Landlord shall automatically be released from all liability under this
Lease and Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee for the performance of
Landlord's obligations hereunder after the date of transfer. Tenant further
acknowledges that Landlord may assign its interest in this Lease to the holder
of any mortgage or deed of trust as additional security, but agrees that an
assignment shall not release Landlord from its obligations hereunder and Tenant
shall continue to look to Landlord for the performance of its obligations
hereunder.
29.4 Prohibition Against Recording. Except as provided in Section 29.3 of
-----------------------------
this Lease, neither this Lease, nor any memorandum, affidavit or other writing
with respect thereto, shall be recorded by Tenant or by anyone acting through,
under or on behalf of Tenant, and the recording thereof in violation of this
provision shall make this Lease null and void at Landlord's election.
29.5 Captions. The captions of Articles and Sections are for convenience
--------
only and shall not be deemed to limit, construe, affect or alter the meaning of
such Articles and Sections.
29.6 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each of
---------------
its provisions.
-30-
29.7 Partial Invalidity. If any term, provision or condition contained
------------------
in this Lease shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder
of this Lease, or the application of such term, provision or condition to
persons or circumstances other than those with respect to which it is invalid or
unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each and every other term,
provision and condition of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent possible permitted by law.
29.8 No Warranty. In executing and delivering this Lease, Tenant has not
-----------
relied on any representations, including, but not limited to, any representation
as to the amount of any item comprising Additional Rent or the amount of the
Additional Rent in the aggregate or that Landlord is furnishing the same
services to other tenants, at all, on the same level or on the same basis, or
any warranty or any statement of Landlord which is not set forth herein or in
one or more of the exhibits attached hereto.
29.9 Child Care Facilities. Tenant acknowledges that any child care
---------------------
facilities located in the Project (the "Child Care Facilities") which are
available to Tenant and Tenant's employees are provided by a third party (the
"Child Care Provider") which is leasing space in the Project, and not by
Landlord. If Tenant or its employees choose to use the Child Care Facilities,
Tenant acknowledges that Tenant and Tenant's employees are not relying upon any
investigation which Landlord may have conducted concerning the Child Care
Provider or any warranties or representation with respect thereto, it being the
sole responsibility of Tenant and the individual user of the Child Care
Facilities to conduct any and all investigations of the Child Care Facilities
prior to making use thereof. Accordingly, Landlord shall have no responsibility
with respect to the quality or care provided by the Child Care Facilities, or
for any acts or omissions of the Child Care Provider. Furthermore, Tenant, for
Tenant and for Tenant's employees, hereby agrees that Landlord, its members and
their respective partners, subpartners, officers, agents, servants, employees,
and independent contractors shall not be liable for, and are hereby released
from any responsibility for any loss, cost, damage, expense or liability, either
to person or property, arising from the use of the Child Care Facilities by
Tenant or Tenant's employees. Tenant hereby covenants that Tenant shall inform
all of Tenant's employees of the provisions of this Section 29.9 prior to such
employees' use of the Child Care Facilities.
29.10 Entire Agreement. It is understood and acknowledged that there are
----------------
no oral agreements between the parties hereto affecting this Lease and this
Lease supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements,
brochures, agreements and understandings, if any, between the parties hereto or
displayed by Landlord to Tenant with respect to the subject matter thereof, and
none thereof shall be used to interpret or construe this Lease. This Lease and
any side letter or separate agreement executed by Landlord and Tenant in
connection with this Lease and dated of even date herewith, contain all of the
terms, covenants, conditions, warranties and agreements of the parties relating
in any manner to the rental, use and occupancy of the Premises and shall be
considered to be the only agreements between the parties hereto and their
representatives and agents. None of the terms, covenants, conditions or
provisions of this Lease can be modified, deleted or added to except in writing
signed by the parties hereto.
29.11 Right to Lease. Landlord reserves the absolute right to effect such
--------------
other tenancies in the Project as Landlord in the exercise of its sole business
judgment shall determine to best promote the interests of the Building or
Project. Tenant does not rely on the fact, nor does Landlord represent, that
any specific tenant or type or number of tenants shall, during the Lease Term,
occupy any space in the Building or Project.
29.12 Force Majeure. Any prevention, delay or stoppage due to strikes,
-------------
lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God, inability to obtain services, labor, or
materials or reasonable substitutes therefor, governmental actions, civil
commotions, fire or other casualty, and other causes beyond the reasonable
control of the party obligated to perform, except with respect to the
obligations imposed with regard to Rent and other charges to be paid by Tenant
pursuant to this Lease (collectively, the "Force Majeure"), notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, shall excuse the performance
of such party for a period equal to any such prevention, delay or stoppage and,
therefore, if this Lease specifies a time period for performance of an
obligation of either party, that time period shall be extended by the period of
any delay in such party's performance caused by a Force Majeure.

29.24.3 Construction of Project and Other Improvements. Tenant
----------------------------------------------
acknowledges that portions of the Project and/or the Other Improvements may be

notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, and notwithstanding any
applicable law to the contrary, the liability of Landlord hereunder (including
any successor landlord hereunder) and any recourse by Tenant against Landlord
shall be limited solely and exclusively to the interest of Landlord in and to
the Building. Neither Landlord, nor any of the Landlord Parties shall have any
personal liability therefor, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases
such personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through
or under Tenant. The limitations of liability contained in this Section 29.26
shall inure to the benefit of Landlord's and the Landlord Parties' present and
future partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders,

the costs relating to the initial design and construction of Tenant's

obligated to make disbursements pursuant to this Tenant Work Letter in a total
amount which exceeds the Tenant Improvement Allowance and the Landlord's Drawing
Contribution. In the event that any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance
remains sixty (60) days following the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall no
longer have the right to such unused portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance
and such remaining portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be the sole
property of Landlord. All Tenant Improvements for which the Tenant Improvement
Allowance has been made available shall be deemed Landlord's property under the
terms of Section 8.5 of this Lease.
2.2 Disbursement of the Tenant Improvement Allowance. Except as otherwise
------------------------------------------------
set forth in this Tenant Work Letter, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be
disbursed by Landlord (each of which disbursements shall be made pursuant to
Landlord's disbursement process) only for the following items and costs
(collectively, the "Tenant Improvement Allowance Items"):
2.2.1 Payment of the fees of the "Architect" and the
"Engineers," as those terms are defined in Sections 3.1 of this Tenant Work
Letter, which payment shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

usage, hoisting and trash removal costs, and contractors' fees and general
conditions;
2.2.4 The cost of any changes in the Base, Shell and Core work
when such changes are required by the Construction Drawings (including if such
changes are due to the fact that such work is prepared on an unoccupied basis),
such cost to include all direct architectural and/or engineering fees and
expenses incurred in connection therewith;
2.2.5 The cost of any changes to the Construction Drawings,
Tenant Improvements or Landlord's Work required by Code;

2.3 Standard Tenant Improvement Package. Landlord has established

specifications (the "Specifications") for some of the Building standard
components to be used in the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the
Premises (collectively, the "Standard Improvement Package"). The quality of
Tenant Improvements shall be equal to or of greater quality than the quality of
the Specifications, provided that Landlord may, at Landlord's option, require
the Tenant Improvements to comply with certain Specifications. Landlord may
make changes to the Specifications for the Standard Improvement Package from
time to time.
SECTION 3
---------
CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS
---------------------
3.1 Selection of Architect/Construction Drawings. Tenant shall retain
--------------------------------------------
Gensler as the architect/space planner (the "Architect") to prepare the
"Construction Drawings", as that term is defined in this Section 3.1. Tenant
shall retain Landlord's engineering consultants (the "Engineers") to prepare all
plans and engineering working drawings relating to the structural, mechanical,
electrical, plumbing, HVAC, lifesafety, and sprinkler work in the Premises,
which work is not part of the Base, Shell and Core work. The fees changed by
the Engineers shall be comparable to the fees charged by comparable engineers
performing comparable work in the Comparable Buildings. The plans and drawings
to be prepared by Architect and the Engineers hereunder shall be known
collectively as the "Construction Drawings." All Construction Drawings shall
comply with Landlord's drawing format and specifications. Landlord's review of
the Construction Drawings as set forth in this Section 3, shall be for its sole
purpose and shall not imply Landlord's review of the same, or obligate Landlord
to review the same, for quality, design, Code compliance or other like matters.
Accordingly, notwithstanding that any Construction Drawings are reviewed by
Landlord or its space planner, architect, engineers and consultants, and
notwithstanding any advice or assistance which may be rendered to Tenant by
Landlord or Landlord's space planner, architect, engineers, and consultants,
Landlord shall have no liability whatsoever in connection therewith and shall
not be responsible for any omissions or errors contained in the Construction
Drawings, and Tenant's waiver and indemnity set forth in Section 10.1 of this
Lease shall specifically apply to the Construction Drawings. Furthermore,
Tenant and Architect shall verify, in the field, the dimensions and conditions
as shown on the relevant portions of the Plans, and Tenant and Architect shall
be solely responsible for the same, and Landlord shall have no responsibility in
connection therewith.
3.2 Final Space Plan. On or before the date set forth in Schedule 1,
----------------
Tenant and the Architect shall prepare the final space plan for Tenant
Improvements in the Premises, shall receive preliminary plan check approval for
the same from the Department of Building and

and other partitioning, their intended use, and equipment to be contained
therein, and shall deliver the Final Space Plan and proof of receipt of
preliminary plan check approval to Landlord for reasonable Landlord's approval.
3.3 Non-Standard Improvement Package Items. On or before the date set
--------------------------------------

approval, all necessary architectural and engineering design, details, and
specifications to allow Landlord to immediately prepare an appropriate "Partial
Cost Proposal," as that term is defined below in Section 4.2 of this Tenant Work
Letter, for all materials necessary to the construction of (A) the structural
portions of any interior stairway or dumbwaiter, and the openings (and required
structural support areas) necessary to accommodate the placement of such
interior stairways or dumbwaiters in the Premises and (B) all other structural
supports and reinforcements necessary to the construction of the Tenant
Improvements (collectively, the "Structural Items"); and (ii) Tenant shall
provide Landlord, for Landlord's approval, with complete specifications, details
and architectural and engineering drawings to allow Landlord to immediately
prepare a Partial Cost Proposal for all materials, components, finishes,
equipment, and improvements which are not part of the Standard Improvement
Package.

engineering drawings for the Premises, and the final architectural working

Landlord for Landlord's reasonable approval.

Section 4.1, below, to do all acts necessary, including cooperation in the
preparation of shop drawings, if necessary, to obtain permits (the "Structural
Permits") for the immediate construction of the Structural Items, and Tenant
acknowledges that in connection therewith Landlord and/or Contractor, as opposed
to Tenant, on behalf of Tenant and as Tenant's agent, may be the appropriate
party to obtain such permits.
3.5.2 Other Permits. After the approval of the Final Working
-------------
Drawings by Landlord (the "Approved Working Drawings"), Tenant shall immediately
submit same to the City of Santa Xxxxxx for all applicable building permits
(except the Structural Permits to the extent the same have already been received
pursuant to the terms of Section 3.5.1, above) necessary to allow Contractor to
commence and fully complete the construction of the Tenant Improvements (the
"Permits"), and, in connection therewith, Tenant shall coordinate with Landlord
in order to allow Landlord, at its option, to take part in all phases of the
permitting process, and shall supply Landlord, as soon as possible, with all
plan check numbers and dates of submittal.
3.5.3 Other Terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
-----------
forth in this Section 3.5, Tenant hereby agrees that neither Landlord nor
Landlord's consultants shall be responsible for obtaining any building permit or
certificate of occupancy for the Premises and that the obtaining of the same
shall be Tenant's responsibility (even as to the Structural Permits); provided,
however, that Landlord shall, in any event, cooperate with Tenant in executing
permit applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary
to enable Tenant to obtain any such permit or certificate of occupancy. No
changes, modifications or alterations in the Approved Working Drawings may be
made without the prior written consent of Landlord, provided that Landlord may
withhold its consent, in its sole discretion, to any change in the Approved
Working Drawings, if such change would directly or indirectly delay the
Substantial Completion of the Premises.
EXHIBIT E - Page 4

--------------
all due diligence to cooperate with Architect, the Engineers, and Landlord to
complete all phases of the Construction Drawings and the permitting process and

as soon as possible after the execution of the Lease, and, in that regard, shall
meet with Landlord on a weekly basis to discuss Tenant's progress in connection
with the same. The applicable dates for approval of items, plans and drawings
and selection of a contractor as described in this Section 3, Section 4, below,
and in this Tenant Work Letter are set forth and further elaborated upon in
Schedule 1 (the "Time Deadlines"), attached hereto. Tenant agrees to comply with
the Time Deadlines.

CONSTRUCTION OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
---------------------------------------
4.1 Contractor. A contractor retained by Landlord, shall construct the

Tenant Improvements. Such contractor ("Contractor") shall be mutually selected
by Landlord and Tenant from three (3) general contractors upon whom Landlord and
Tenant have mutually agreed and to whom Landlord has bid the Tenant Improvement
Work, and Tenant shall deliver notice of its selection of the Contractor to
Landlord on or before the date set forth in Schedule 1.
4.2 Cost Proposal. After the Approved Working Drawings are signed by

Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a cost proposal in
accordance with the Approved Working Drawings, which cost proposal shall
include, as nearly as possible, the cost of all Tenant Improvement Allowance
Items to be incurred by Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant
Improvements (the "Cost Proposal"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, portions of
the cost of the Tenant Improvements may be delivered to Tenant as such portions
of the Tenant Improvements are priced by Contractor (on an individual item-by-
item or trade-by-trade basis), even before the Approved Working Drawings are
completed (the "Partial Cost Proposal") for purposes of facilitating the early
purchase of items and construction of the same. Tenant shall approve and deliver
the Cost Proposal to Landlord within five (5) business days of the receipt of
the same, or, as to a Partial Cost Proposal within two (2) business days of
receipt of the same, and upon receipt of the same by Landlord, Landlord shall be
released by Tenant to purchase the items set forth in the Cost Proposal or
Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be, and to commence the construction
relating to such items. The date by which Tenant must approve and deliver the
Cost Proposal or the last Partial Cost Proposal to Landlord, as the case may be,
shall be known hereafter as the "Cost Proposal Delivery Date". The total of all
Partial Cost Proposals, if any, shall be known as the Cost Proposal.
4.3 Construction of Tenant Improvements by Landlord's Contractor under the
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Supervision of Landlord.
-----------------------
4.3.1 Over-Allowance Amount. On the Cost Proposal Delivery Date,
---------------------
Tenant shall deliver to Landlord cash in an amount (the "Over-Allowance Amount")
equal to the difference between (i) the amount of the Cost Proposal and (ii) the
amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (less any portion thereof already
disbursed by Landlord, or in the process of being disbursed by Landlord, on or
before the Cost Proposal Delivery Date). The Over-Allowance Amount shall be
disbursed by Landlord prior to the disbursement of any then remaining portion of
the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and such disbursement shall be pursuant to the
same procedure as the Tenant Improvement Allowance. In the event that, after
the Cost Proposal Date, any revisions, changes, or substitutions shall be made
to the Construction Drawings or the Tenant Improvements, any additional costs
which arise in connection with such revisions, changes or substitutions or any
other additional costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days
following Landlord's request as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount.

Supervision Fee") to Landlord in an amount equal to the product
EXHIBIT E - Page 5
of (i) five percent (5%) and (ii) an amount equal to the Tenant Improvement
Allowance plus the Over-Allowance Amount (as such Over-Allowance Amount may
increase pursuant to the terms of this Tenant Work Letter).
4.3.3 Contractor's Warranties and Guaranties. Landlord hereby
--------------------------------------
assigns to Tenant all warranties and guaranties by Contractor relating to the
Tenant Improvements, and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord
relating to, or arising out of the construction of, the Tenant Improvements.
Such warranties and guaranties of Contractor shall guarantee that the Tenant
Improvements shall be free from any defects in workmanship and materials for a
period of not less than one (1) year from the date of completion thereof, and
Contractor shall be responsible for the replacement or repair, without
additional charge, of the Tenant Improvements that shall become defective within
one (1) year after Substantial Completion of the Premises. The correction of
such work shall include, without additional charge, all additional expenses and
damages in connection with such removal or replacement of all or any part of the
Tenant Improvements.
4.3.4 Tenant's Covenants. Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord
------------------
for any loss, claims, damages or delays arising from the actions of Architect on
the Premises or in the Project. Within ten (10) days after completion of
construction of the Tenant Improvements, Tenant shall cause Contractor and
Architect to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the
Recorder of the County of Los Angeles in accordance with Section 3093 of the
Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute and furnish a
copy thereof to Landlord upon recordation, failing which, Landlord may itself
execute and file the same on behalf of Tenant as Tenant's agent for such
