lease to tenants, the common entrances, lobbies, common restrooms, accessways, loading docks, ramps, drives and platforms and any passageways and serviceways thereto to the extent not exclusively serving another tenant or contained within another tenant’s premises, and the common pipes, conduits, wires and appurtenant equipment serving the Premises, the parking areas (subject to Article 11 of the Standard Lease Provisions), loading and unloading areas, trash areas, roadways, sidewalks, walkways, parkways, driveways and landscaped areas appurtenant to the Building, fixtures, systems, decor, facilities and landscaping contained, maintained or used in connection with those areas, and shall be deemed to include any city sidewalks adjacent to the Property, any pedestrian walkway system, park or other facilities located on the Site and open to the general public.
1.18 Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs
a. Base Costs: As used in this Lease, the term “Base Costs” shall mean Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs, respectively, incurred and paid by Landlord during calendar year 2011 (the “Base Year”). Base Costs are included in the Monthly Base Rent.
b. Definition of Operating Expenses. As used in this Lease, the term “Operating Expenses” shall consist of all costs and expenses of operation, maintenance and repair of the Building and Common Areas actually incurred by Landlord as determined by standard accounting practices following by similar landlord of first class buildings in the vicinity of the Building (“Comparable Buildings”), and calculated assuming the Property and Building are at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied and fully assessed for real estate taxes. Operating Expenses include the following costs by way of illustration but not limitation: (i) any and all assessments imposed with respect to the Building, Common Areas, and/or Site pursuant to any covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Property; (ii) costs, levies or assessments resulting from statutes or regulations promulgated by any government authority in connection with the use or occupancy of the Site, Building or the Premises or the parking facilities serving the Site, Building or the Premises; (iii) waste disposal and janitorial services; (iv) security; (v) costs incurred in the management of the Site, Building and Common Areas, including, without limitation: (1) supplies, materials, equipment and tools, (2) wages, salaries, benefits, pension payments, fringe benefits, uniforms and dry-cleaning thereof (and payroll taxes, insurance and similar governmental charges related thereto) of employees used in the operation and maintenance of the Site, Building and Common Areas, (3) the rental of personal property used by Landlord’s personnel in the maintenance, repair and operation of the Property, (4) management office expenses including rent and operating costs (provided that such office shall not exceed 2,000 rentable square feet), (5) accounting fees, legal fees and real estate consultant’s fees, and (6) a management/administrative fee (not to exceed 3% of the gross rental income for the Property); (vi) repair and maintenance of other portions of the Building other than such portions as are maintained by Tenant, including the elevators, restrooms, structural and non-structural portions of the Building, and the plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning (“HVAC”), and electrical systems installed or furnished by Landlord and not maintained by Tenant pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Standard Provisions; (vii) maintenance, costs and upkeep of all parking and Common Areas; (viii) amortization on a straight-line basis over the useful life together with interest at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 1.13 of the Lease Summary) on the unamortized balance of all costs of a capital nature (including, without limitation, capital improvements, capital replacements, capital repairs, capital equipment and capital tools): (1) reasonably intended to produce a reduction in operating charges or energy consumption; or (2) required after the date of this Lease under any Law that was not applicable to the Building at the time it was originally constructed; or (3) for repair or replacement of any equipment or improvements needed to operate and/or maintain the Building, the Common Areas and/or the Site at the same quality levels as prior to the repair or replacement; (ix) costs and expenses of gardening and landscaping; (x) maintenance of signs (other than signs of tenants of the Site); (xi) personal property taxes levied on or attributable to personal property used in connection with the Building, the Common Areas and/or the Site; and (xii) costs and expenses of repairs, resurfacing, repairing, maintenance, painting, lighting, cleaning, refuse removal, security and similar items, including appropriate reserves.
For purposes of determining the Operating Expenses for the Base Year, Operating Expenses shall not include one-time special assessments, charges, costs or fees or extraordinary charges or costs incurred in the Base Year only, including those attributable to boycotts, embargoes, strikes or other shortages of services or supplies or amortized costs relating to capital improvements. Operating Expenses shall not include Taxes, Insurance Costs or Utilities Costs which shall be separately accounted for under the terms of this Lease.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s Percentage of “controllable expenses” shall not increase by more than six percent (6%) of such controllable expenses per calendar year over the prior year, including the Base Year, on a cumulative, compounded basis. As used herein, the term “controllable expenses” means all Operating Expenses other than (i) Utilities Costs, (ii) Taxes, (iii) Insurance Costs, and (iv) other expenses not within Landlord’s control arising from increases to minimum wage laws, collective bargaining agreements or similar governmental, judicial or quasi-governmental requirements.
c. Taxes. Taxes are defined in Section 7.3 of the Standard Lease Provisions. All Taxes shall be adjusted to reflect an assumption that the Building is fully assessed for real property tax purposes as a completed building(s) ready for occupancy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the Commencement Date Taxes are reduced, then for purposes of all subsequent calendar years, including the calendar year in which the reduction occurs, the Base Costs of Taxes shall be proportionately reduced. Such reduction in the Base Costs of Taxes shall not be limited to the initial reduction, if any, but may, at Landlord’s election, be subject to reduction annually upon each subsequent reduction in Taxes. When calculating Taxes for purposes of establishing the Taxes for the Base Year, Taxes shall not include Taxes attributable to one-time special assessments, charges, costs, or fees arising from modifications or changes in Laws, including, but not limited to, the institution of a split tax roll during the Base Year. The Tax for the 2011 Base Year shall be based upon the Building’s Proposition 13 enrolled value at the annual applicable rates. To the extent Landlord appeals the property Taxes under Proposition 8, such reductions will inure to the Landlord as long as the resulting property Taxes are below the Proposition 13
-3-
based property Taxes for the Base Year, and Tenant shall only be responsible for any increases in Taxes only to the extent such Taxes exceed the 2011 Base Year Taxes. However, to the extent Landlord is enjoying the Proposition 8 reductions, then controllable operating expenses by themselves, as defined above, shall not exceed six percent (6%) over the prior year.
d. Definition of Insurance Costs. Insurance Costs are defined in Section 7.4 of the Standard Lease Provisions.
e. Definition of Utilities Costs. As used in this Lease, “Utilities Costs” shall mean all actual charges for utilities for the Building and the Common Areas calculated assuming the Property and Building are at least ninety-five percent (95%) occupied, including but not limited to water, sewer and electricity, and the costs of HVAC and other utilities (but excluding those charges for which tenants, including Tenant, are individually responsible, such as, for example, electricity costs) as well as related fees, assessments and surcharges. For purposes of determining the Base Costs with respect to Utilities Costs, Utilities Costs shall not include any one time special charges, costs or fees or any extraordinary charges or costs incurred in the Base Year only, including, without limitation, utility rate increases and other costs arising from extraordinary market circumstances such as by way of example, boycotts, black-outs, xxxxx-outs, the leasing of auxiliary power supply equipment, embargoes, strikes or other shortages of services or fuel (whether or not such shortages are deemed actual or manufactured), or any conservation surcharges, penalties or fines incurred by Landlord.
f. Excess Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs. In addition to the Monthly Base Rent required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 1.8 above, during each month during the Term (after the Base Year), Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount by which Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs for such calendar year exceeds the Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs for the Base Year (such amounts shall be referred to in this Section 1.18 as the “Excess Expenses,” “Excess Taxes,” “Excess Insurance Costs,” and “Excess Utilities Costs,” respectively), in the manner and at the times set forth in the following provisions of this Section 1.18. No reduction in Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, or Utilities Costs after the Base Year will reduce the Monthly Base Rent payable by Tenant hereunder or entitle Tenant to receive a credit against future installments of Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, Utilities Costs, or other Additional Rent due hereunder.
g. Estimate Statement. By the first day of May of each calendar year during the Term after the Base Year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement (“Estimate Statement”) estimating the Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and Utilities Costs for the current calendar year and the estimated amount of Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and Excess Utilities Costs payable by Tenant. If at any time during the Term, but not more often than quarterly, Landlord reasonably determines that the estimated amount of Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs or Excess Utilities Costs payable by Tenant for the current calendar year will be greater or less than the amount set forth in the then current Estimate Statement, Landlord may issue a revised Estimate Statement and to the extent of any estimated underpayment, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the revised Estimate Statement, the difference between the amount owed by Tenant under such revised Estimate Statement and the amount owed by Tenant under the original Estimate Statement for the portion of the then current calendar year which has expired. Any estimated overpayment shall be credited to Rent next due. Thereafter Tenant agrees to pay Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs and Excess Utilities Costs based on such revised Estimate Statement until Tenant receives the next calendar year’s Estimate Statement or a new revised Estimate Statement for the current calendar year; provided, however. Tenant shall not be required to pay any Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs and Excess Utilities Costs during the first calendar year immediately following the Base Year (i.e., calendar year 2012) until Landlord delivers an Estimate Statement for such calendar year. The Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and/or Excess Utilities Costs shown on the Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement, as applicable) shall be divided into twelve (12) equal monthly installments, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, concurrently with the regular monthly payment of Rent next due following the receipt of the Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement, as applicable), an amount equal to one (1) monthly installment of such Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and Excess Utilities Costs multiplied by the number of months from January in the calendar year in which such statement is submitted to the month of such payment, both months inclusive (less any amounts previously paid by Tenant with respect to any previously delivered Estimate Statement or revised Estimate Statement for such calendar year). Subsequent installments shall be paid concurrently with the regular monthly payments of Rent for the balance of the calendar year and shall continue until the next calendar year’s Estimate Statement (or current calendar year’s revised Estimate Statement) is received.
h. Actual Statement. By the first day of May of each subsequent calendar year during the Term after the Base Year, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement (“Actual Statement”) which states the Tenant’s Percentage of actual Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and Utilities Costs and Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and Excess Utilities Costs payable by Tenant for the immediately preceding calendar year. By the first day of May for the first calendar year after the Base Year, Landlord shall deliver an Actual Statement for the Base Year which states the Base Costs. If the Actual Statement reveals that Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and/or Excess Utilities Costs were under-stated in any Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement) previously delivered by Landlord pursuant to Section 1.18 g. above, then within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s delivery of the Actual Statement to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any such under-payment. Such obligation will be a continuing one which will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If the Actual Statement reveals that the Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and/or Excess Utilities Costs were over-stated in any Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement), Landlord will credit any overpayment toward the next monthly installment(s) of Rent due from Tenant. Prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Term and Landlord’s acceptance of Tenant’s surrender of the Premises, Landlord will have the right to estimate the actual Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and
-4-
Utilities Costs for the then current calendar year and to collect from Tenant prior to Tenant’s surrender of the Premises, Tenant’s Percentage of any excess of such actual Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and Utilities Costs over the estimated Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and Utilities Costs paid by Tenant in such calendar year.
i. No Release. Any delay or failure by Landlord in delivering any Estimate Statement or Actual Statement pursuant to this Section 1.18 shall not constitute a waiver of its right to receive Tenant’s payment of Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and Excess Utilities Costs, nor shall it relieve Tenant of its obligations to pay Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs, and Excess Utilities Costs pursuant to this Section 1.18, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to make any payments based on such Estimate Statement or Actual Statement until thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord fails to deliver an Actual Statement within one (1) year after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Tenant shall have no obligation to pay any Excess Expenses, Excess Taxes, Excess Insurance Costs or Excess Utilities Costs to the extent of any underpayment revealed thereafter.
j. Exclusions from Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Section 1.18, the following items shall be excluded from Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs, and Utilities Costs, as applicable: Costs of decorating, redecorating, or special cleaning or other services provided to certain tenants and not provided on a regular basis to all tenants of the Building; (ii) Any charge for depreciation of the Building or equipment and any interest or other financing charge; (iii) All costs relating to activities for the marketing, solicitation, negotiation and execution of leases of space in the Building, including without limitation, costs of tenant improvements; (iv) All costs for which Tenant or any other tenant in the Building is being charged other than pursuant to the operating expense clauses of leases for the Building; (v) The cost of correcting any violation of Law in existence as of the Commencement Date and/or any latent or patent defects in the Premises (except with respect to the Tenant Improvements to be constructed by Tenant, which shall be corrected by Tenant at Tenant’s expense) and/or in the construction of the Building or in the Building equipment, except that conditions (not occasioned by construction defects) resulting from ordinary wear and tear will not be deemed defects for the purpose of this category; (vi) To the extent Landlord is reimbursed by third parties, the cost of repair made by Landlord because of the total or partial destruction of the Building or the condemnation of a portion of the Building; (vii) The cost of any items for which Landlord is reimbursed by insurance or otherwise compensated by parties other than tenants of the Building pursuant to clauses similar to this paragraph; (viii) Any operating expense representing an amount paid to a related corporation, entity, or person which is in excess of the amount which would be paid in the absence of such relationship; (ix) The cost of any work or service performed for or facilities furnished to any tenant of the Building to a greater extent or in a manner more favorable to such tenant than that performed for or furnished to Tenant; (x) The cost of alterations of space in the Building leased to other tenants; (xi) Ground rent or similar payments to a ground lessor; (xii) Legal fees and related expenses incurred by Landlord (together with any damages awarded against Landlord) due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord; (xiii) Costs arising from the presence of any Hazardous Materials within, upon or beneath the Property by reason of Landlord’s introduction thereof to the Property in violation of Environmental Law applicable as of the date of such introduction; (xiv) Costs for sculpture, paintings or other objects of art in the Building which exceed those typically incurred in other similar office buildings in the area in which the Building is located; (xv) Salaries and compensation of ownership and management personnel to the extent that such persons provide services to properties other than the Building; and (xvi) Costs of selling or financing the Building.

iii. interest, points, fees and principal payments on any mortgages encumbering the Property, and other debt costs, if any;
iv. costs of correcting latent or patent defects in, or significant design error relating to, the initial design or construction of the Premises, the Building, the parking facilities or any other improvements to the Property or equipment or materials used therewith;
v. advertising and promotional expenditures;
vi. costs of any items (including, but not limited to, costs incurred by Landlord with respect to goods, services and utilities sold and/or supplied to tenants and occupants of the Property, and/or for the repair of damage to the Building for items which are reimbursable under any contractor, manufacturer or supplier warranty) to the extent Landlord receives reimbursement from insurance or condemnation proceeds, or from a contractor, manufacturer, supplier or any other third party pursuant to any warranty or otherwise or would have been reimbursed if Landlord had carried the insurance Landlord is required to carry pursuant to this Lease (other than reimbursement by tenants pursuant to the Operating Expenses pass-through provisions of their leases); such proceeds shall be credited to Operating Expenses in the year in which received;

ix. the wages and benefits of any employee who does not devote substantially all of his or her employed time to the operation and management of the Building or Property unless such wages and benefits are prorated to reflect time spent on operating and managing the Building and Property vis-á-vis time spent on matters unrelated to operating and managing the Building and Property;

Within sixty (60) days after the records are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord written notice (an “Objection Notice”) stating in reasonable detail any objection to the Actual Statement for that year. If Tenant provides Landlord with a timely Objection Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to resolve any issues raised in Tenant’s Objection Notice.

Likewise, if Landlord and Tenant determine that Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and/or Utilities Costs for the calendar year are greater than reported, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of any underpayment within thirty (30) days after such determination. The records obtained by Tenant shall be treated as confidential. In no event shall Tenant be permitted to review Landlord’s records or to dispute any statement of Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs or Utilities Costs if a Default has occurred and is continuing. If Tenant’s audit reveals that Landlord’s calculation of Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs or Utilities Costs was overstated by five percent (5%) or more, then Landlord shall pay Tenant’s actual, out-of-pocket audit and inspection fees within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s invoice therefor.

The sign rights granted herein are personal to the original Tenant executing this Lease and may not be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, to any person or entity. The rights granted to the original Tenant hereunder are not assignable separate and apart from the Lease, nor may any right granted herein be separated from the Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the provisions of Article 20, if Landlord consents to Tenant’s complete assignment of its rights under this Lease to particular assignee, or a subletting of the entire Premises to a particular sublessee, then the sign rights granted to Tenant hereunder shall be assignable by Tenant to that particular assignee or sublessee.
1.31 Rooftop Equipment. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense (subject to the Allowance), to install supplemental HVAC, necessary ducting, satellite, telecommunication and/or television equipment on the roof of the Building as required for Tenant’s business in a mutually acceptable area (collectively, the “Rooftop Equipment”) under the following conditions: (i) all plans and specifications for any and all such Rooftop Equipment, including but not limited to, weight, configuration, location, means of installation, cabling and screening of the Rooftop Equipment are subject to the prior reasonable approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (ii) Tenant shall provide evidence to Landlord that Tenant has obtained all governmental approvals and permits required for the installation and operation of the Rooftop Equipment; (iii) Tenant shall provide evidence to Landlord of insurance coverage for the installation, location, repair, removal, and operation of the Rooftop Equipment, with Landlord as an additional insured, all in form and substance reasonably approved by Landlord and such insurance shall be maintained during the Term of this Lease; (iv) Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, cost and expense incurred by Landlord as a result of the installation, location, repair, removal, and/or operation of the Rooftop Equipment on the Building, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (v) Tenant shall be responsible for the installation, engineering, maintenance, repair and removal of the Rooftop Equipment and appurtenant equipment in accordance with all Laws; (vi) any roof penetrations shall be made subject to the prior reasonable approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (vii) Tenant shall be responsible for any impairment of Landlord’s roof warranty as a result of installation of any such Rooftop Equipment; (viii) Tenant shall, at its own expense, promptly repair any damage or wear to the roof resulting from the installation and use of the Rooftop Equipment and appurtenant equipment; (x) the operation of the Rooftop Equipment shall be for Tenant’s internal use only; and (xi) Tenant shall provide reasonable screening of the Rooftop Equipment at Tenant’s sole cost and expense as may be reasonably required by Landlord. Landlord shall grant Tenant access to the roof for such installation, maintenance, repair, and removal of the Rooftop Equipment.

There shall be no additional charge to Tenant during the Term or any Option Term for said roof rights.
1.32 Emergency Power Generator. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 1.32, and the terms of this Lease, including Article 13, and to Tenant obtaining all necessary governmental permits and approvals, and so long as Tenant shall not adversely impact any Building systems, Tenant shall have the right to install, operate and maintain, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, a maximum 500 kilowatt back-up generator (“Tenant’s Generator”) on the Site near the Building within the area specified on Exhibit J hereto which shall not exceed 200 square feet in area. In addition to Tenant’s Generator, subject to the terms of this Section 1.32, and as more particularly described below, Tenant shall be permitted to install an above-ground diesel tank storage or propane gas, if gas line is not available, and an electrical conduit from Tenant’s Generator to an area in the Premises designated by Tenant. Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any rent or other charges with respect to the area designated for Tenant’s Generator. Landlord shall have the right to review and approve, such review and approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Tenant’s plans and specifications for the proposed equipment, including, without limitation, the size, method of installation and visibility of such equipment. The location of Tenant’s Generator shall be limited to the area specified on Exhibit J.
-12-
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the installation of Tenant’s Generator involve the installation of an underground storage tank. The above-ground storage tank associated with Tenant’s Generator (the “AST”) shall not exceed 750 gallons in capacity, shall be double walled in thickness, shall contain diesel fuel or liquid propane only (to power Tenant’s Generator only), and shall employ at a minimum for a diesel powered generator, a double containment system whereby if the first containment system fails, a second containment system shall be present to prevent releases of Hazardous Substances, all in accordance with applicable laws and environmental regulations. For these purposes, a sealed, uncracked concrete slab containment area without drains shall be sufficient (but shall not be the exclusive method) to constitute the second containment system, provided it is large enough to completely contain a release of the maximum volume of Hazardous Substances which could be present in the first containment system. All handling, use, storage and disposal of Hazardous Substances relating to the AST or Tenant’s Generator shall be accomplished by Tenant at its sole cost and expense in accordance with this Section 1.32, Article 10 and Article 16.
In conjunction with the installation of Tenant’s Generator, subject to Landlord’s prior approval of Tenant’s plans and specifications, Tenant shall have the right to install an emergency generator connection on the outside of the Building for the purpose of connecting Tenant’s Generator to the Premises and an appurtenant electrical grounding system. Furthermore, Tenant shall have the right to install conduits from Tenant’s Generator to the Premises, provided, however, that such conduits are installed below grade to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction in accordance with the design and architectural standards for the Building.
Provided Tenant is not otherwise in default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant shall not be required to remove Tenant’s Generator at the conclusion of the Term. Prior to or within sixty (60) days following the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease, Tenant agrees upon Landlord’s request to (i) promptly remove from the Property, at its sole cost and expense, all Hazardous Substances which are brought upon, stored, used, generated or released upon, in, under or about the Premises, the Property or any portion thereof by Tenant and/or any of Tenant’s Parties (as defined in the Standard Provisions) in connection with Tenant’s Generator or AST, and (ii) return the Premises and the balance of the Building and Property to substantially the condition existing prior to Tenant’s installation of Tenant’s Generator and AST. Tenant shall be solely responsible for complying with any and all Environmental Laws relating to the AST, Tenant’s Generator and all Hazardous Substances associated with either of the same, including, without limitation, all permitting and tank installations, monitoring and removal/closure obligations. For purposes of all Environmental Laws, Tenant shall be the owner and operator of the AST. Tenant shall be responsible for ensuring compliance by all Tenant Parties with all Environmental Laws relating to the AST and Tenant’s Generator. Any acknowledgment, consent or approval by Landlord of Tenant’s use or handling of Hazardous Substances shall not constitute an assumption of risk respecting the same nor a warranty or certification by Landlord that Tenant’s proposed use and handling of Hazardous Substances is safe or reasonable or in compliance with Environmental Laws.
From time to time during the Term and for up to one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter, if required by any government agency, or in the event Landlord has actual knowledge of a Hazardous Substances release at the Premises which resulted from a fuel leak relating to the AST, Landlord may, and upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall, retain a registered environmental consultant (“Consultant”) reasonably acceptable to Landlord to conduct an environmental investigation of the Property (“Environmental Assessment”) (i) for Hazardous Substances contamination in, about or beneath the Property relative to the AST or Tenant’s Generator, and (ii) to assess the activities of Tenant and all Tenant Parties with respect to Tenant’s Generator and the AST for compliance with all Environmental Laws and to recommend the use of procedures intended to reasonably reduce the risk of a release of Hazardous Substances. If the Environmental Assessment discloses any material breach of Environmental Laws by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, then the cost thereof shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant, payable as Additional Rent under this Lease. Otherwise, the costs of the Environmental Assessment shall be the responsibility of Landlord. If Landlord so requires, Tenant shall comply, at its sole cost and expense, with all reasonable recommendations contained in the Environmental Assessment, including any reasonable recommendations with respect to precautions which should be taken with respect to Tenant’s or Tenant Parties’ activities at the Property relative to the AST or Tenant’s Generator or any recommendations for additional testing and studies to detect the presence of Hazardous Substances relative to the AST or Tenant’s Generator. Tenant covenants to reasonably cooperate with the Consultant and to allow entry and reasonable access to the AST and Tenant’s Generator for the purpose of the Consultant’s investigations.
If any cleanup or monitoring procedure is required by any applicable governmental authorities in or about the Property as a consequence of any Hazardous Substances contamination by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties arising out of Tenant’s Generator or AST use, and the procedure for cleanup is not completed (to the satisfaction of all applicable governmental authorities) prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Lease (referred to herein as “Tenant’s Failure to Clean-Up”), then, without limiting any of Landlord’s other rights and remedies contained in this Lease (including, without limitation, any indemnity and restoration obligations of Tenant contained in this Lease), Tenant will additionally be liable for any revenue of Landlord lost to the extent Landlord is precluded from re-leasing the Premises or any other portion of the Property as a result of such contamination.
Subject to Tenant obtaining all necessary governmental permits and approvals, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to test Tenant’s Generator pursuant to the manufacturer’s recommendations, but in no event more than once a week during the Term or any Option Term at a time after normal business hours mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant’s intended use of Tenant’s Generator shall be to provide back-up power should there be for any reason, any interruption in electrical service to the Property, the Building and/or the Premises.
Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any and all liability, losses, damages, actions or causes of action, judgments, costs and expenses arising in any way from Tenant’s installation, operation,
-13-
maintenance and removal of Tenant’s Generator and the AST, or any breach of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease with respect to Tenant’s Generator and the AST, except to the extent arising out of Landlord’s gross negligence r willful misconduct. The representations, warranties and agreements of the Tenant set forth in this Section 1.32 shall survive the expiration of the Term or the earlier termination of the Lease for any reason.
Tenant’s Generator shall be installed in a weatherproof, walk-around type, sound attenuating enclosure which shall limit the sound to no more than 85 dba as measured at ten (10) feet from outside of any side, top or bottom of the enclosure, under all operating conditions. Tenant shall be responsible for all insulation for magnetic or electrical interference from operation of Tenant’s Generator as necessary to prevent interference of any kind with equipment or systems operated by other occupants of the Property.
If Tenant’s Generator is visible from outside of the Building (including from any areas adjacent to the Building (or from other buildings now or hereafter constructed within the Property), Tenant shall cause Tenant’s Generator to be screened from view in a manner reasonably acceptable to Landlord and comparable and compatible with the improvements and/or landscaping contiguous to such improvements (such as by way of example only with appropriate metal and/or fabric screening, concrete masonry unit block wall fencing or landscaping screening to match adjacent landscaping). All such screening and visible improvements shall be of first class quality and shall be consistent in quality and design with similar improvements and screening in comparable quality office/warehouse projects in the vicinity of the Property. If the use of any parking spaces is lost as a result of the placement of Tenant’s Generator in the Common Areas, Tenant’s allocation of parking spaces shall be deemed reduced by the number of parking spaces lost as a result of the location of Tenant’s Generator and Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant whatsoever for such reduction.
To the extent that the installation of Tenant’s Generator requires modifications to the shell, foundation, or other structural portions of the Building (including, without limitation, the installation of Tenant’s Generator upon the roof of the Building), such modifications shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Tenant shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in conjunction with such structural modifications.
1.33 Additional Hazardous Materials Requirements. In addition to Tenant’s obligations under Article 10 of the Standard Provisions, Tenant shall comply with the following provisions with respect to Hazardous Materials (as that term is defined in Article 10):
a. Environmental Questionnaire; Disclosure. Prior to the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall complete, execute and deliver to Landlord an Environmental Questionnaire and Disclosure Statement (the “Environmental Questionnaire”) in the form of Exhibit G. and Tenant shall certify to Landlord all information contained in the Environmental Questionnaire as true and correct to the best of Tenant’s knowledge and belief. The completed Environmental Questionnaire shall be deemed incorporated into this Lease for all purposes, and Landlord shall be entitled to rely fully on the information contained therein. On each anniversary of the Commencement Date (each such date is hereinafter referred to as a “Disclosure Date”), until and including the first Disclosure Date occurring after the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall disclose to Landlord in writing the names and amounts of all Hazardous Materials, or any combination thereof, that were stored, generated, used or disposed of on, under or about the Premises for the twelve (12) month period prior to each Disclosure Date, and that Tenant intends to store, generate, use or dispose of on, under or about the Premises through the next Disclosure Date. At Landlord’s request, Tenant’s disclosure obligations under this Section 1.33 shall include a requirement that Tenant update, execute and deliver to Landlord the Environmental Questionnaire, as the same may be reasonably modified by Landlord from time to time; provided, however, Tenant shall not be required to update the Environmental Questionnaire more than once per year unless an environmental event of default has occurred. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of, and shall promptly provide Landlord with true, correct, complete and legible copies of, all of the following environmental items relating to the Premises: reports filed pursuant to any self reporting requirements; reports filed pursuant to any Environmental Laws or this Lease; all permit applications, permits, monitoring reports, workplace exposure and community exposure warnings or notices, and all other reports, disclosures, plans or documents (even those that may be characterized as confidential, provided that Landlord shall execute reasonable confidentiality agreements with respect to such information) relating to water discharges, air pollution, waste generation or disposal, underground storage tanks or Hazardous Materials; all orders, reports, notices, listings and correspondence (even those that may be considered confidential, provided that Landlord shall execute confidentiality agreements with respect to such information) of or concerning the release, investigation, compliance, clean up, remedial and corrective actions, and abatement of Hazardous Materials whether or not required by Environmental Laws; and all complaints, pleadings and other legal documents filed against Tenant related to Tenant’s use, handling, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials at the Premises and/or within the Property.
b. Inspection; Compliance. Upon reasonable prior notice to Tenant, Landlord and Landlord Parties (as that term is defined in Article 10) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to inspect, investigate, sample and/or monitor the Premises, including any air, soil, water, groundwater or other sampling, and any other testing, digging, drilling or analyses, at any time to determine whether Tenant is complying with the terms of this Section 1.33 and Article 10, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall provide Landlord with access to all relevant facilities, records and personnel during Tenant’s normal business hours. If Tenant is not in compliance with any of the provisions of this Section 1.33 and Article 10, or in the event of a release of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or about the Premises, Landlord and Landlord Parties shall have the right, but not the obligation, without limitation on any of Landlord’s other rights and remedies under this Lease, to immediately enter upon the Premises and to discharge Tenant’s obligations under this Section 1.33 and Article 10 at Tenant’s expense, including without limitation the taking of emergency or long term remedial action. Landlord and Landlord Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s business, but shall not be liable for any such
-14-
interference. In addition, Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to join and participate in any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any claims or causes of action arising out of the storage, generation, use or disposal by Tenant or Tenant’s Parties of Hazardous Materials on, under, from or about the Premises. All sums reasonably disbursed, deposited or incurred by Landlord in connection herewith, including, but not limited to, all costs, expenses and actual, reasonable attorneys’ fees, shall be due and payable by Tenant to Landlord, as an item of Additional Rent, on demand by Landlord, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date of such demand until paid by Tenant. Landlord agrees that if any testing proves that the Tenant or Tenant’s Parties have no responsibility for the presence of said Hazardous Materials, Tenant shall not be liable for any costs or expenses in connection with such inspection, testing and monitoring. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Lease, and except for Tenant’s obligations to notify Landlord of any Hazardous Materials known to and/or observed or discovered by Tenant, Landlord acknowledges and agrees that Tenant shall have no liability, including any indemnity liability, for any Hazardous Materials that have migrated onto the Premises or the Property from neighboring properties (and Tenant shall have no obligation to monitor, investigate, prevent or otherwise remedy any such migration) or for any Hazardous Materials in existence at the Property prior to the Delivery Date.
c. Tenant Obligations. If the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises caused or permitted by Tenant or Tenant’s Parties during the Term results in (i) injury to any person, (ii) injury to or contamination of the Premises, or (iii) injury to or contamination of any real or personal property wherever situated, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly take all actions necessary to return the Premises to the condition existing prior to the introduction of such Hazardous Materials to the Premises and to remedy or repair any such injury or contamination. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall pay the cost of any cleanup work performed on, under or about the Premises as required by this Lease or any Environmental Laws in connection with the removal, disposal, neutralization or other treatment of such Hazardous Materials caused or permitted by Tenant or Tenant’s Parties. If Landlord has reason to believe that Tenant or Tenant’s Parties may have caused or permitted the release of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or about the Premises, then Landlord may require Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to conduct monitoring activities on or about the Premises satisfactory to Landlord, in its sole and absolute judgment, concerning such release of Hazardous Materials on, under, from or about the Premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises, or enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree or other compromise with any governmental agency with respect to any Hazardous Materials claims; provided, however, Landlord’s prior written consent shall not be necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises (i) poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual, or (ii) is of such a nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not possible to obtain Landlord’s consent before taking such action.
d. Tenant’s Responsibility at Conclusion of Lease. Promptly upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall represent to Landlord in writing that (i) Tenant has made a diligent effort to determine whether any Hazardous Materials are on, under or about the Premises, as a result of any acts or omissions of Tenant or Tenant’s Parties and (ii) no such Hazardous Materials exist on, under or about the Premises, other than as specifically identified to Landlord by Tenant in writing. If Tenant discloses the existence of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or if Landlord at any time discovers that Tenant or Tenant’s Parties caused or permitted the release of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or about the Premises, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, immediately prepare and submit to Landlord within thirty (30) days after such request a comprehensive plan, subject to Landlord’s approval, specifying the actions to be taken by Tenant to return the Premises to the condition existing prior to the introduction of such Hazardous Materials. Upon Landlord’s approval of such clean up plan, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, without limitation on any rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity, immediately implement such plan and proceed to clean up such Hazardous Materials in accordance with all Environmental Laws and as required by such plan and this Lease. Tenant’s failure to timely comply with this Section 1.33 shall constitute an event of default under this Lease.
1.34 Storage. Subject to Tenant’s compliance with all terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, Tenant may identify a desire amount of storage space, preferred location and a description of the items and materials desired to be stored within the Building, and Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide storage space (the “Storage Space”) for Tenant’s consideration. Tenant’s leasing of the Storage Space shall be governed by the terms of this Lease and upon such other terms mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant.

ARTICLE 4 - TERM AND POSSESSION
4.1 Term; Notice of Lease Dates. The Term shall be for the period designated in the Summary commencing on the Commencement Date and ending on the Expiration Date, unless the Term is sooner terminated or extended as provided in this Lease. If the Commencement Date falls on any day other than the first day of a calendar month then the Term will be measured from the first day of the month following the month in which the Commencement Date occurs.

Landlord’s Work shall be substantially completed no later than forty-five (45) days following the Lease Execution Date. If Landlord’s Work has not been finally completed Landlord and Tenant shall not interfere with each other’s work and shall cooperate and coordinate throughout the construction process. Landlord shall require its contractors to provide 1-year warranties with respect to the work completed. Tenant acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease and the Work Letter, if any, (i) neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises, the Building or the Property or their condition, or with respect to the suitability thereof for the conduct of Tenant’s business, and Tenant shall accept the Premises in its then as-is condition on delivery by Landlord, and (ii) the acceptance of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall establish that the Premises, the Building and the Property were at such time complete and in good, sanitary and satisfactory condition and repair with all work required to be performed by Landlord completed and without any obligation on Landlord’s part to make any further alterations, upgrades or improvements thereto. For purposes hereof, Landlord’s Work will be deemed to be “substantially completed” when Landlord’s contractor certifies in writing to Landlord and Tenant that Landlord has substantially performed all of Landlord’s Work required to be performed by Landlord, other than decoration and minor “punch-list” type items and adjustments which do not interfere with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements. Within two (2) business days after receipt of certification from
-16-
Landlord’s contractor, Tenant and Landlord will conduct a walk-through inspection of the Premises and Tenant shall provide to Landlord a written punch-list specifying those decoration and other punch-list items which require completion, which items Landlord will thereafter diligently complete at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and without interfering with Tenant’s construction of the Tenant Improvements, and which items shall be finally completed no later than July 15,2010, provided this Lease is mutually executed on or before May 30,2010.
4.4 Early Access. So long as Landlord has received from Tenant the first month’s Monthly Base Rent due pursuant to Section 5.1 of this Lease, certificates satisfactory to Landlord evidencing the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease, and, as applicable, the Security Deposit or the Letter of Credit, and so long as: (a) the Tenant coordinates with and obtains the prior written approval of Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (b) Tenant and its contractors and employees do not interfere with the completion of Landlord’s Work, Landlord shall give Tenant and Tenant’s designated contractors access to the Premises no later than twenty-one (21) days after the Lease Execution Date (the “Early Access Period”) for purposes of installing Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, and equipment (“FF&E Work”). Except for application of the Allowance, FF&E Work shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant’s access to the Premises during the Early Access Period shall be subject to all terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Rent during the Early Access Period until the Commencement Date. Should Landlord reasonably determine such early access interferes with Landlord’s Work, Landlord may deny Tenant access to the Premises until Landlord’s Work is substantially completed (as defined in Section 4.3 above).
4.5 Beneficial Occupancy. So long as Landlord has received from Tenant the first month’s Monthly Base Rent due pursuant to Section 5.1 of this Lease, certificates satisfactory to Landlord evidencing the insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease, and, as applicable, the Security Deposit or the Letter of Credit, Landlord shall give Tenant access to and use of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, commencing on or about August 1,2010 (the “Beneficial Occupancy Period”). Tenant’s access to and use of the Premises during the Beneficial Occupancy Period shall be subject to all terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to pay Monthly Base Rent during the Beneficial Occupancy Period until the Commencement Date; provided, however, Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of Additional Rent during such Beneficial Occupancy Period at the rate of $0.25 per rentable square foot of the Premises then leased per month ($0.18 for Utilities Costs per month and $0.07 for janitorial costs for the Premises per month).
ARTICLE 5 - RENT
5.1 Monthly Base Rent. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, the Monthly Base Rent as designated in the Summary. Monthly Base Rent and recurring monthly charges of Additional Rent (defined below) shall be paid by Tenant in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month (“Due Date”) during the Term, except that the first full month’s Monthly Base Rent for the month of January 2011 in the amount of $51,515.10 (based upon the Premises containing 27,846 rentable square feet), shall be paid upon Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord. Monthly Base Rent for any partial month shall be prorated in the proportion that the number of days this Lease is in effect during such month bears to the actual number of days in such month.
5.2 Additional Rent. All amounts and charges payable by Tenant under this Lease in addition to Monthly Base Rent, if any, including, without limitation, payments for Operating Expenses, Taxes, Insurance Costs and Utilities Costs to the extent payable by Tenant under this Lease shall be considered “Additional Rent”, and the word “Rent” in this Lease shall include Monthly Base Rent and all such Additional Rent unless the context specifically states or clearly implies that only Monthly Base Rent is referenced. Rent shall be paid to Landlord, without any prior notice or demand therefor and without any notice, deduction or offset, in lawful money of the United States of America.
5.3 Late Charges & Interest Rate. If Landlord does not receive Rent or any other payment due from Tenant on the Due Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such past due Rent or other payment. Tenant agrees that this late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Landlord will incur by reason of Tenant’s late payment. Accepting any late charge shall not constitute a waiver by Landlord of Tenant’s default with respect to any overdue amount nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies available to Landlord. If any installment of Monthly Base Rent or Additional Rent, or any other amount payable by Tenant hereunder is not received by Landlord by the Due Date, it shall bear interest at the Interest Rate set forth in the Summary from the Due Date until paid. All interest, and any late charges imposed pursuant to this Section 5.3, shall be considered Additional Rent due from Tenant to Landlord under the terms of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3, on the first (1st) occasion in each calendar year during the Term, Landlord shall not assess a late charge or interest on any unpaid amount due until five (5) calendar days after the Due Date; provided, however, that Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge and interest on any and all other late payments commencing as of the Due Date and without any notice during the remainder of each such calendar year.
ARTICLE 6 - SECURITY DEPOSIT
Concurrently with Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit, if any, designated in the Summary, in the form of cash or immediately available funds or, at Tenant’s option, an irrevocable letter of credit in form of Exhibit K attached hereto (“Letter of Credit”).The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed by Tenant during the Term. If Tenant defaults with respect to any of its obligations under this Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Monthly Base Rent, Additional Rent or

any other sum in default, or for the payment of any other amount, loss or damage which Landlord may spend, incur or suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of the Security Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within twenty-one (21) days after demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount (or replenish the Letter of Credit to the original amount, if applicable).

If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Term, provided that Landlord may retain the Security Deposit until such time as any amount due from Tenant in accordance with this Lease has been determined and paid in full. If Landlord sells its interest in the Building during the Term and if Landlord deposits with or credits to the purchaser the Security Deposit (or balance thereof), then, upon such sale, Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect to the Security Deposit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 6, upon such date as Tenant informs Landlord in writing that Tenant becomes a publicly traded company (i.e., a company that has permission to offer its registered securities for sale to the general public and whose stock is traded over the counter via market makers), and raises at least Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000.00) through said public offering (the “Adjustment Date”), Landlord shall apply $151,268.00 of the Security Deposit towards Rent then due and payable by Tenant under this Lease for each consecutive month following the Adjustment Date until exhausted. Accordingly, as of the Adjustment Date, the Security Deposit shall be reduced to $63,998.00. However, there shall be no reduction in the Security Deposit if Tenant is in default beyond applicable notice and cure periods as of the Adjustment Date, or if Tenant has been in Default under this Lease at any time within the period of six (6) months prior to the Adjustment Date.

In the event of any stoppage or interruption of services or utilities which are not obtained directly by Tenant, Landlord shall diligently attempt to resume such services or utilities as promptly as practicable. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of any applicable existing or future Law, ordinance or governmental regulation permitting the termination of this Lease due to an interruption, failure or inability to provide any services (including, without limitation, to the extent the Premises are located in California, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1)).

As used herein, “Eligible Causes” shall mean (i) an interruption of utility or mechanical services to the Premises, (ii) an inability to access the Premises or parking areas within the Project which Tenant is entitled to use pursuant to this Lease unless resulting from governmental mandate, (iii) entry upon the Premises by Landlord or Landlord’s employees, agents or contractors, (iv) repairs, maintenance or other work required to be made to the Premises or Building which are the responsibility of Landlord under this Lease or which otherwise are performed by or on behalf of Landlord, and/or (v) Landlord’s failure to conduct repairs, maintenance or other work required to be made to the Premises or Building which are the responsibility of Landlord under this Lease or which otherwise are performed by or on behalf of Landlord.

In addition, before proceeding with any Alteration, Tenant’s contractors shall obtain, on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, all necessary governmental permits and approvals for the commencement and completion of such Alterations. Landlord’s approval of any plans, contractor(s) and subcontractor(s) of Tenant shall not release Tenant or any such contractor(s) and/or subcontractor(s) from any liability with respect to such Alterations and will create no liability or responsibility on Landlord’s part concerning the completeness of such Alterations or their design sufficiency or compliance with Laws.
c. All Alterations shall be performed: (i) in accordance with the approved plans, specifications and working drawings, if any; (ii) lien-free and in a first-class workmanlike manner; (iii) in compliance with all Laws; (iv) in such a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with the occupancy of

e. Throughout the performance of the Alterations, Tenant shall obtain, or cause its contractors to obtain, workers compensation insurance and commercial general liability insurance in compliance with the insurance provisions of this Lease.
13.2 Removal of Alterations. All Alterations and the initial Tenant Improvements in the Premises (whether installed or paid for by Landlord or Tenant), shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at the end of the Term, except that trade fixtures shall remain the property of Tenant at all times; provided, however, Landlord shall, by written notice delivered to Tenant concurrently with Landlord’s approval of plans for any Alterations identify those Alterations which Landlord shall require Tenant to remove at the end of the Term; provided, further, however, the initial Tenant Improvements shall not be required to be removed at the end of the Term, except that Tenant shall remove all Tenant’s equipment and machinery including but not limited to piping, fume hoods, and any other Tenant equipment and machinery added during the Lease Term that pertains to Tenant’s business including any and all equipment located outside of the Premises (except as set forth below) including the HVAC condenser farm set forth in Exhibit “H” herein, air compressor, and all conditions associated with that equipment including any piping and wiring and concrete pads. Tenant will be responsible to restore any holes and damage to the Building and outside areas caused by the use and/or removal of any of such Tenant’s equipment to Landlord’s commercially reasonable satisfaction. If Landlord fails to indicate whether removal shall be required at the time of its approval of the Alterations, Tenant shall not be required to remove such Alterations at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. If Landlord requires Tenant to remove any such Alterations concurrently with Landlord’s approval thereof, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, remove the identified items on or before the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease and repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal to its original condition (or, at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all of Landlord’s costs of such removal and repair). Any removal by Tenant shall be completed within ten (10) business days following the end of the Term or any early termination as set forth in the Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to remove at the end of the Term or any early termination as set forth in the Lease (i) any generator or generator pad installed by Tenant pursuant to the terms set forth in this Lease, or (ii) any HVAC units installed on the roof pursuant to the terms set forth in this Lease.

Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord, as soon as practicable after the placing of the required insurance, but in no event later than the date Tenant is required to obtain such insurance as set forth in Section 14.1 above, certificates from the insurance company evidencing the existence of such insurance and Tenant’s compliance with the foregoing provisions of this Article 14. Tenant shall cause replacement certificates to be delivered to Landlord not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any such policy or policies. If any such initial or replacement certificates are not furnished within the time(s) specified herein, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to procure such policies and certificates at Tenant’s expense.
14.3 Effect on Insurance. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which will (a) violate or invalidate any insurance policy or coverage maintained by Landlord or Tenant hereunder, or (b) increase the costs of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord. If Tenant’s occupancy or conduct of its business in or on the Premises results in any increase in premiums for any insurance carried by Landlord with respect to the Building or the Property, Tenant shall either discontinue the activities affecting the insurance or pay such increase as Additional Rent within ten (10) days after being billed therefor by Landlord. If any insurance coverage carried by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or otherwise with respect to the Building or the Property shall be cancelled or reduced (or cancellation or reduction thereof shall be threatened) by reason of the use or occupancy of the Premises other than as allowed by the Permitted Use by Tenant or by anyone permitted by Tenant to be upon the Premises, and if Tenant fails to remedy such condition within five (5) business days after notice thereof, Tenant shall be deemed to be in default under this Lease and Landlord shall have all remedies provided in this Lease, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right (but not the obligation) to enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such condition at Tenant’s cost.
-23-
ARTICLE 15 - LANDLORD’S INSURANCE
During the Term, Landlord shall maintain property insurance written on a Special Form (formerly known as “all risk”) basis covering the full replacement cost of the Property and the Building, including the initial Tenant Improvements (excluding, however, Tenant’s furniture, equipment and other personal property, Tenant Improvements and Alterations, unless Landlord otherwise elects to insure the Alterations pursuant to Section 13.1 above) against damage by fire and standard extended coverage perils and with vandalism and malicious mischief endorsements, rental loss coverage, at Landlord’s option, earthquake damage coverage, and such additional coverage as Landlord deems appropriate. Landlord shall also carry commercial general liability in such reasonable amounts and with such reasonable deductibles as would be carried by a prudent owner of a Comparable Building. At Landlord’s option, all such insurance may be carried under any blanket or umbrella policies that Landlord has in force for other buildings and projects. In addition, at Landlord’s option, Landlord may elect to self-insure all or any part of such required insurance coverage, provided that the waiver of subrogation clause pursuant to Article 19 below shall apply to Landlord to the extent of any insurance coverage with respect to which Landlord elects to self-insure. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to carry any other form or forms of insurance as Landlord or the Mortgagees or ground lessors of Landlord may reasonably determine is advisable. The cost of insurance obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Article 15 (including self-insured amounts and deductibles) shall be included in Insurance Costs, except that any increase in the premium for the property insurance attributable to the replacement cost of the Tenant Improvements in excess of Building standard shall not be included as Insurance Costs, but shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days after invoice from Landlord.
ARTICLE 16 - INDEMNIFICATION AND EXCULPATION
16.1 Tenant’s Assumption of Risk and Waiver. Except to the extent such matter is not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease and/or except to the extent such matter is attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, contractors or employees, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, or any of Tenant’s Parties for: (i) any damage to property of Tenant, or of others, located in, on or about the Premises, (ii) the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant or of others by theft or otherwise, (iii) any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling ceiling tiles masonry, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain or leaks from any part of the Premises or from the pipes, appliance of plumbing works or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other places or by dampness or by any other cause of whatsoever nature, (iv) any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Premises, occupants of any other portions of the Property, or the public, or caused by operations in construction of any private, public or quasi-public work, or (v) any interruption of utilities and services. Landlord shall in no event be liable to Tenant or any other person for any consequential damages, special or punitive damages, or for loss of business, revenue, income or profits and Tenant hereby waives any and all claims for any such damages. Tenant shall in no event be liable to Landlord or any other person for any consequential damages, special or punitive damages, or for loss of business, revenue, income or profits and Landlord hereby waives any and all claims for any such damages, except to the extent of losses arising out of a holdover pursuant to Section 21.2 below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 16.1, all property of Tenant and Tenant’s Parties kept or stored on the Premises, whether leased or owned by any such parties, shall be so kept or stored at the sole risk of Tenant and Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from any claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Tenant’s insurance carriers. Landlord or its agents shall not be liable for interference with light or other intangible rights.
16.2 Tenant’s Indemnification. Tenant shall be liable for, and shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord and the Landlord Parties harmless from and against, any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs (collectively, “Indemnified Claims”), arising or resulting from (a) any occurrence in the Premises following the date Landlord delivers possession of all or any portion of the Premises to Tenant, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, contractors or employees, (b) any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties in connection with Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises during the Term, as the same may be extended; (c) the use of the Premises, the Building and the Property and conduct of Tenant’s business by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, or any other activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, in or about the Premises, the Building or elsewhere on the Property; and/or (d) any default by Tenant as to any obligations on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease. The foregoing indemnification shall include, but not be limited to, any injury to, or death of, any person, or any loss of, or damage to, any property on the Premises, or on adjoining sidewalks, streets or ways, or connected with the use, condition or occupancy thereof, whether or not Landlord or any Landlord Parties has or should have knowledge or notice of the defect or conditions causing or contributing to such injury, death, loss or damage. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord or any Landlord Parties by reason of any such Indemnified Claims, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord, shall defend the same at Tenant’s expense by counsel approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Section 16.2 and elsewhere in this Lease shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant’s covenants, agreements and indemnification in Section 16.1 and this Section 16.2 are not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.
-24-
16.3 Landlord’s Indemnification of Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 16.1 or 16.2, Tenant shall not be required to protect, defend, save harmless or indemnify Landlord from any liability for injury, loss, accident or damage to any person resulting from Landlord’s grossly negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct or that of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees, in connection with Landlord’s activities on or about the Premises, or any pre-existing condition, and subject to the terms of Article 22, Landlord hereby indemnifies and agrees to protect, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against Indemnified Claims arising out of Landlord’s grossly negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct or those of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees in connection with Landlord’s activities on or about the Premises or any pre-existing condition. Such exclusion from Tenant’s indemnity and such agreement by Landlord to so indemnify and hold Tenant harmless are not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease to the extent that such policies cover (or, if such policies would have been carried as required, would have covered) the result of grossly negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of Landlord or those of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees; provided, however, the provisions of this sentence shall in no way be construed to imply the availability of any double or duplicate coverage. Landlord’s and Tenant’s indemnification obligations hereunder may or may not be coverable by insurance, but the failure of either Landlord or Tenant to carry insurance covering the indemnification obligation shall not limit their indemnity obligations hereunder.
ARTICLE 17 - CASUALTY DAMAGE/DESTRUCTION
17.1 Landlord’s Rights and Obligations. If the Premises or the Building is damaged by fire or other casualty (“Casualty”) to an extent not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full replacement cost thereof, and Landlord’s contractor estimates in writing delivered to the parties that the damage thereto is such that the Building and/or Premises may be repaired, reconstructed or restored to substantially its condition immediately prior to such damage within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of such Casualty, and Landlord will receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the costs of such repairs, reconstruction and restoration (including proceeds from Tenant and/or Tenant’s insurance which Tenant is required to deliver to Landlord pursuant to this Lease), then Landlord shall commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair, reconstruction and restoration and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If, however, the Premises or the Building is damaged to an extent exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full replacement cost thereof, or Landlord’s contractor estimates that such work of repair, reconstruction and restoration will require longer than one hundred twenty (120) days to complete from the date of Casualty (which estimate shall be delivered to Tenant immediately following Landlord’s receipt thereof), or Landlord will not receive insurance proceeds (and/or proceeds from Tenant, as applicable) sufficient to cover the costs of such repairs, reconstruction and restoration, then Landlord may elect to either: (a) repair, reconstruct and restore the portion of the Premises or Building damaged by such Casualty (including the Tenant Improvements, the Alterations that Landlord elects to insure pursuant to Section 13.1 and, to the extent of insurance proceeds received from Tenant, the Alterations that Tenant is required to insure pursuant to Section 13.1), in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; or (b) terminate this Lease effective as of the date which is thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s election to so terminate. In addition, if Landlord’s contractor estimates that such work of repair, reconstruction and restoration will require longer than one hundred twenty (120) days to complete from the date of Casualty (which estimate shall be delivered to Tenant immediately following Landlord’s receipt thereof), then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s receipt of such estimate, provided that such termination date shall not be earlier than thirty (30) days following the date of the notice of termination. Under any of the conditions of this Section 17.1, Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant of its intention to repair or terminate within the later of thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Casualty, or fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s receipt of the estimate from Landlord’s contractor or, as applicable, thirty (30) days after Landlord receives approval from Landlord’s Mortgagee to rebuild,.
17.2 Tenant’s Costs and Insurance Proceeds. In the event of any damage or destruction of all or any part of the Premises, Tenant shall promptly: (a) notify Landlord thereof; and (b) deliver to Landlord all insurance proceeds received by Tenant with respect to the Tenant Improvements and Alterations (to the extent such items are not covered by Landlord’s casualty insurance obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Lease) and with respect to Alterations in the Premises that Tenant is required to insure pursuant to Section 13.1, excluding proceeds for Tenant’s furniture and other personal property, whether or not this Lease is terminated as permitted in Section 17.1, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all rights to receive such insurance proceeds. If, for any reason (including Tenant’s failure to obtain insurance for the full replacement cost of any Alterations which Tenant is required to insure pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof), Tenant fails to receive insurance proceeds covering the full replacement cost of such Alterations which are damaged, Tenant shall be deemed to have self-insured the replacement cost of such Alterations, and upon any damage or destruction thereto, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord the full replacement cost of such items, less any insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord from Landlord’s or Tenant’s insurance with respect to such items.
17.3 Abatement of Rent. If as a result of any such damage, repair, reconstruction and/or restoration of the Premises or the Building, Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, then Rent shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, during the period that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using and does not use the Premises or portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable square feet of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises, from the date of the damage until the Premises is restored. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the damage is due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, there shall be no abatement of Rent beyond Landlord’s rent abatement insurance period. Except for abatement of Rent as provided hereinabove, Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages for loss of, or interference with, Tenant’s business or use or access of all or any part of the Premises resulting from any such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.
-25-
17.4 Inability to Complete. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 17, if Landlord is obligated or elects to repair, reconstruct and/or restore the damaged portion of the Building or Premises pursuant to Section 17.1 above, but is delayed from completing such repair, reconstruction and/or restoration beyond the date which is three (3) months after the date estimated by Landlord’s contractor for completion thereof pursuant to Section 17.1, by reason of any causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord (including, without limitation, delays due to Force Majeure, and delays caused by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties), then either party may elect to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other party; provided, however, Tenant shall not have the right to terminate if, at the end of such thirty (30) day notice period, the repair, reconstruction and/or restoration is substantially completed.
17.5 Damage to the Property. If there is a total destruction of the improvements on the Property or partial destruction of such improvements, the cost of restoration of which would exceed one-third (1/3) of the then replacement value of all improvements on the Property, by any cause whatsoever, whether or not insured against and whether or not the Premises are partially or totally destroyed, Landlord may within a period of ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such destruction, notify Tenant in writing that it elects not to so reconstruct or restore such improvements, in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such destruction.
17.6 Damage Near End of Term. In addition to its termination rights in Sections 17.1, 17.4 and 17.5 above, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Building or Premises occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term.
17.7 Tenant’s Termination Right. In the event of any damage or destruction which affects Tenant’s use and enjoyment of the Premises, if Tenant’s possession and use of the Premises cannot reasonably be (as indicated in the estimate of Landlord’s contractor) or is not restored by Landlord within one hundred eighty (180) days following the Casualty, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord.
17.8 Waiver of Termination Right. This Lease sets forth the terms and conditions upon which this Lease may terminate in the event of any damage or destruction. Accordingly, except as expressly provided herein, Tenant hereby waives any and all provisions of applicable Law that provide alternative rights for the parties in the event of damage or destruction (including, without limitation, to the extent the Premises are located in California, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932, Subsection 2, and Section 1933, Subsection 4 and any successor statute or laws of a similar nature).
ARTICLE 18 - CONDEMNATION
18.1 Substantial or Partial Taking. Subject to the provisions of Section 18.3 below, either party may terminate this Lease if any material part of the Premises is taken or condemned for any public or quasi-public use under law, by eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof (a “Taking”). Landlord shall also have the right to terminate this Lease if there is a Taking of any portion of the Building or the Property which would have a material adverse effect on Landlord’s ability to profitably operate the remainder of the Building and/or the Property. The terminating party shall provide written notice of termination to the other party within thirty (30) days after it first receives notice of the Taking. The termination shall be effective as of the effective date of any order granting possession to, or vesting legal title in, the condemning authority. If this Lease is not terminated, Base Rent and all other elements of this Lease which are dependent upon the area of the Premises, the Building or the Property shall be appropriately adjusted to account for any reduction in the square footage of the Premises, Building or Property, as applicable. All compensation awarded for a Taking shall be the property of Landlord. The right to receive compensation or proceeds are expressly waived by Tenant, however, Tenant may file a separate claim for Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property, loss of goodwill and Tenant’s reasonable relocation expenses, provided the filing of the claim does not diminish the amount of Landlord’s award.
18.2 Condemnation Award. Subject to the provisions of Section 18.3 below, in connection with any Taking of the Premises or the Building, Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award which may be made or given in such taking or condemnation, without deduction or apportionment for any estate or interest of Tenant, it being expressly understood and agreed by Tenant that no portion of any such award shall be allowed or paid to Tenant for any so-called bonus or excess value of this Lease, and such bonus or excess value shall be the sole property of Landlord. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking (including any claim for bonus or excess value of this Lease); provided, however, if any portion of the Premises is taken, Tenant shall be granted the right to recover from the condemning authority (but not from Landlord) any compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property within the Premises, for Tenant’s relocation expenses, and for any loss of goodwill or other damage to Tenant’s business by reason of such taking.
18.3 Temporary Taking. In the event of a Taking of the Premises or any part thereof for temporary use, (a) this Lease shall be and remain unaffected thereby and Rent shall not xxxxx, and (b) Tenant shall be entitled to receive for itself such portion or portions of any award made for such use with respect to the period of the taking which is within the Term, provided that if such taking shall remain in force at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall perform its obligations with respect to surrender of the Premises and shall pay to Landlord the portion of any award which is attributable to any period of time beyond the Term expiration date. For purpose of this Section 18.3, a temporary taking shall be defined as a taking for a period of ninety (90) days or less.
18.4 Waiver. Tenant hereby waives any rights it may have pursuant to any applicable Laws (including, without limitation, to the extent the Premises are located in California, any rights Tenant might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure) and agrees that the provisions hereof shall govern the parties’ rights in the event of any Taking.
-26-
ARTICLE 19 - WAIVER OF CLAIMS; WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
19.1 Parties’ Waiver. Each of Tenant and Landlord hereby waives its rights against the other for any claims or damages or losses, including any deductibles and self-insured amounts, which are caused by or result from (a) any occurrence insured under any property insurance policy carried by Tenant and Landlord, respectively, or (b) any occurrence which would have been covered under any property insurance required to be obtained and maintained by Tenant and Landlord, respectively, under this Lease had such insurance been obtained and maintained as required. The foregoing waiver shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, any other waivers or releases contained in this Lease.
19.2 Waiver of Insurers. Each party shall cause each property insurance policy carried by such party to provide that the insurer waives all rights of recovery by way of subrogation against Landlord, in connection with any claims, losses and damages covered by such policy. If either party fails to maintain insurance for an insurable loss, such loss shall be deemed to be self-insured with a deemed full waiver of subrogation as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.
ARTICLE 20 - ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
20.1 Restriction on Transfer. Except with respect to a Permitted Transfer pursuant to Section 20.6 below, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay, assign this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by any party other than Tenant (any such assignment, encumbrance, sublease, license or the like being sometimes referred to as a “Transfer”). In no event may Tenant encumber or hypothecate this Lease or the Premises. This prohibition against Transfers shall be construed to include a prohibition against any assignment or subletting by operation of law. Any Transfer without Landlord’s consent (except for a Permitted Transfer pursuant to Section 20.6 below) shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease, and in addition to all of Landlord’s other remedies at law, in equity or under this Lease, such Transfer shall be voidable at Landlord’s election. For purposes of this Article 20, other than with respect to a Permitted Transfer under Section 20.6 and transfers of stock of Tenant if Tenant is a publicly-held corporation and such stock is transferred publicly over a recognized security exchange or over-the-counter market, if Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other entity, any transfer, assignment, encumbrance or hypothecation of fifty-one percent (51%) or more (individually or in the aggregate) of any stock or other ownership interest in such entity, and/or any transfer, assignment, hypothecation or encumbrance of any controlling ownership or voting interest in such entity, shall be deemed an assignment of this Lease and shall be subject to all of the restrictions and provisions contained in this Article 20.
20.2 Landlord’s Options. If Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, then at least twenty-one (21) days prior to the date when Tenant desires the Transfer to be effective (the “Transfer Date”), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord written notice (“Transfer Notice”) setting forth the terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer and the identity of the proposed assignee, sublessee or other transferee (sometimes referred to hereinafter as a “Transferee”). Tenant shall also deliver to Landlord with the Transfer Notice, a current financial statement and such evidence of financial responsibility and standing as Landlord may reasonably require of the Transferee which have been certified or audited by a reputable independent accounting firm acceptable to Landlord, and such other information concerning the business background and financial condition of the proposed Transferee as Landlord may reasonably request. Except with respect to a Permitted Transfer, within ten (10) business days after Landlord’s receipt of any Transfer Notice, Landlord will notify Tenant of its election to do one of the following: (a) consent to the proposed Transfer subject to such reasonable conditions as Landlord may impose in providing such consent; (b) refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable grounds; or (c) terminate this Lease as to all or such portion of the Premises which is proposed to be sublet or assigned and recapture all or such portion of the Premises for reletting by Landlord, which termination shall be effective as of the proposed Transfer Date; provided, however, Tenant shall have the right to withdraw its request for a Transfer by written notice to Landlord given within five (5) business days following notice of Landlord’s election to terminate this Lease. If Landlord exercises its option to terminate this Lease with respect to only a portion of the Premises following Tenant’s request for Landlord’s approval of the proposed sublease of such space (and Tenant fails to timely withdraw its request), Landlord shall be responsible for the construction of any demising wall which Landlord reasonably deems necessary to separate such space from the remainder of the Premises.
20.3 Additional Conditions; Excess Rent. A condition to Landlord’s consent to any Transfer will be the delivery to Landlord of a true copy of the fully executed instrument of assignment, sublease, transfer or hypothecation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, an original of Landlord’s standard consent form executed by both Tenant and the proposed Transferee (with such changes as Tenant or the Transferee shall request and Landlord shall agree to), and an affirmation of guaranty in form satisfactory to Landlord executed by each guarantor of this Lease, if any. In addition, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof, without affecting or reducing any other obligations of Tenant hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of any rent or other economic consideration received by Tenant as a result of any Transfer which exceeds, in the aggregate, (i) the total Rent which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (prorated to reflect obligations allocable to any portion of the Premises subleased) for the applicable period, plus (ii) any tenant improvement costs or similar concessions, brokerage commissions, marketing fees, and attorneys’ fees and costs actually paid by Tenant in connection with such Transfer, which commissions and fees shall, for purposes of the aforesaid calculation, be amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of such assignment or sublease. If Tenant effects a Transfer or requests the consent of Landlord to any Transfer (whether or not such Transfer is consummated), then, upon demand, and as a condition precedent to Landlord’s consideration of the proposed assignment or sublease, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord a non-refundable administrative fee of Five Hundred
-27-
Dollars ($500.00), plus Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ and paralegal fees and other costs incurred by Landlord (not to exceed $2,500.00) in reviewing each such proposed assignment or sublease (excluding Landlord’s in-house attorneys or paralegals). Acceptance of the Five Hundred Dollar ($500.00) administrative fee and/or reimbursement of Landlord’s attorneys’ and/or paralegal fees shall in no event obligate Landlord to consent to any proposed Transfer.
20.4 Reasonable Disapproval. Without limiting in any way Landlord’s right to withhold its consent on any reasonable grounds, it is agreed that Landlord will not be acting unreasonably in refusing to consent to a Transfer if, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion: (a) the net worth or financial capabilities of a proposed assignee is less than that of Tenant and each guarantor of this Lease, if any, or the proposed assignee does not have the financial capability to fulfill the obligations imposed by the Transfer, and Tenant has been released from the Lease obligations; (b) the proposed Transferee is a governmental entity; (c) the portion of the Premises to be sublet or assigned is irregular in shape with inadequate means of ingress and egress; (d) the proposed Transfer involves a change of use of the Premises or would violate any exclusive use covenant to which Landlord is bound; (e) the Transferee is not in Landlord’s reasonable opinion of reputable or good character or consistent with tenants of Comparable Buildings, or (f) the proposed Transferee is an existing tenant of the Building or Property or is negotiating with Landlord (or has negotiated with Landlord in the last six (6) months as evidenced by a written proposal submitted to such party by Landlord) for space in the Building or the Property.
20.5 No Release. No Transfer, occupancy or collection of rent from any proposed Transferee shall be deemed a waiver on the part of Landlord, or the acceptance of the Transferee as Tenant and no Transfer shall release Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. Landlord may require that any Transferee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due Tenant by said Transferee, and each sublease shall provide that if Landlord gives said sublessee written notice that Tenant is in default under this Lease, said sublessee will thereafter make all payments due under the sublease directly to or as directed by Landlord, which payments will be credited against any payments due under this Lease. Tenant hereby irrevocably and unconditionally assigns to Landlord all rents and other sums payable under any sublease of the Premises; provided, however, that Landlord hereby grants Tenant a license to collect all such rents and other sums so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. Consent by Landlord to one Transfer shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent Transfer. In the event of default by any Transferee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such Transferee or successor. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments of this Lease or sublettings or amendments or modifications to this Lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant, and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and any such actions shall not relieve Tenant of liability under this Lease. To the extent the Premises are located in California, Tenant hereby waives (for itself and all persons claiming under Tenant) the provisions of Civil Code Section 1995.310.
20.6 Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20.1 above to the contrary, provided that Tenant is not then in default, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof (herein, a “Permitted Transfer”), without Landlord’s consent to any entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any entity resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to any person or entity which acquires all the assets of Tenant’s business as a going concern (each, a “Permitted Transferee”), provided that: (a) at least ten (10) business days prior to such assignment or sublease, Tenant delivers to Landlord a reasonably detailed description of the proposed Transfer and the financial statements and other financial and background information of the assignee or sublessee described in Section 20.2 above; (b) in the case of an assignment, the assignee assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (or in the case of a sublease, the sublessee of a portion of the Premises or Term assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant with respect to such portion) pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement (or a sublease, as applicable) reasonably acceptable to Landlord, a fully executed copy of which is delivered to Landlord within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such assignment or subletting; (c) each guarantor of this Lease executes a reaffirmation of its guaranty in form satisfactory to Landlord; (d) Tenant (or in the case of a merger, the surviving entity) remains fully liable under this Lease unless otherwise released in writing by Landlord; (e) Intentionally Omitted; (f) the use of the Premises is pursuant to Section 1.10 of this Lease; (g) such transaction is not entered into as a subterfuge to avoid the restrictions and provisions of this Article 20 and will not violate any exclusive use covenant to which Landlord is bound; (h) with respect to a subletting only, Tenant and such Permitted Transferee execute Landlord’s standard consent to sublease form (with such changes as Tenant and Permitted Transferee shall reasonably request and Landlord shall agree to); and (i) Tenant is not in default under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods. A public offering of shares of stock on a national exchange shall constitute a Permitted Transfer.
ARTICLE 21 - SURRENDER AND HOLDING OVER
21.1 Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender all keys for the Premises and exclusive possession of the Premises to Landlord broom clean and in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted (and casualty damage excepted), with all of Tenant’s personal property, electronic, fiber, phone and data cabling and related equipment that is installed by or for the exclusive benefit of Tenant (to be removed in accordance with the National Electric Code and other applicable Laws) and those items, if any, of Alterations identified by Landlord pursuant to Section 13.2, removed therefrom and all damage caused by such removal repaired. If Tenant fails to remove by the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease all of its personal property and Alterations identified by Landlord for removal pursuant to Section 13.2, Landlord may (without liability to Tenant for loss thereof), at Tenant’s sole cost and in addition to Landlord’s other rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity: (a) remove and store such items in accordance with applicable Law; and/or (b) upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to Tenant, sell all or any such items at private or public sale for such price as Landlord may obtain as permitted under applicable Law. Landlord shall
-28-
apply the proceeds of any such sale to any amounts due to Landlord under this Lease from Tenant (including Landlord’s attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred in the removal, storage and/or sale of such items), with any remainder to be paid to Tenant.
21.2 Holding Over. Tenant will not be permitted to hold over possession of the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term without the express written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term with or without the express written consent of Landlord, then, in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance only, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease so far as applicable (including Tenant’s obligation to pay all Additional Rent under this Lease), but at a Monthly Base Rent equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Monthly Base Rent applicable to the Premises immediately prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination, plus Tenant’s Percentage. Any such holdover Rent shall be paid on a per diem basis. Acceptance by Landlord of Rent after such expiration or earlier termination shall not constitute consent to a hold over hereunder or result in an extension of this Lease. This Section 21.2 shall not be construed to create any express or implied right to holdover beyond the expiration of the Term or any extension thereof. Tenant shall be liable, and shall pay to Landlord within thirty (30) days after demand, for all losses incurred by Landlord as a result of such holdover, and shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and the Landlord Parties harmless from and against all liabilities, damages, losses, claims, suits, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from or relating to any such holdover tenancy, including without limitation, any claim for damages made by a succeeding tenant. Tenant’s indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. The foregoing provisions of this Section 21.2 are in addition to, and do not affect, Landlord’s right of re-entry or any other rights of Landlord hereunder or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 22 - DEFAULTS
22.1 Tenant’s Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a “Default” under this Lease by Tenant:
a. the failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent, Additional Rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, where such failure continues for three (3) business days after written notice thereof from Landlord that such payment was not received when due;
b. the failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified in Sections 22.1(a) or (b) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) business days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant’s default is such that it may be cured but more than ten (10) business days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if Tenant shall commence such cure within said ten (10) business day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion, which completion shall occur not later than sixty (60) days from the date of such notice from Landlord, subject to Force Majeure Delays; or
c. A general assignment by Tenant or any guarantor or surety of Tenant’s obligations hereunder (“Guarantor”) for the benefit of creditors;
d. The filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy by Tenant or any Guarantor, the filing by Tenant or any Guarantor of a voluntary petition for an arrangement, the filing by or against Tenant or any Guarantor of a petition, voluntary or involuntary, for reorganization, or the filing of an involuntary petition by the creditors of Tenant or any Guarantor, said involuntary petition remaining undischarged for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days;
e. Receivership, attachment, or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets on the Premises, such attachment or other seizure remaining undismissed or undischarged for a period of thirty (30) days after the levy thereof;
f. Death or disability of Tenant or any Guarantor, if Tenant or such Guarantor is a natural person, or the failure by Tenant or any Guarantor to maintain its legal existence, if Tenant or such Guarantor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other legal entity.
Any notice sent by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Section 22.1 shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under any applicable Law.
ARTICLE 23 - REMEDIES OF LANDLORD
23.1 Landlord’s Remedies; Termination. In the event of any such Default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, at law or in equity (including, without limitation, to the extent the Premises are located in California, the remedies of Civil Code Section 1951.4 and any successor statute or similar Law, which provides that Landlord may continue this Lease in effect following Tenant’s breach and abandonment and collect rent as it falls due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject to reasonable limitations), Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder and to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed, stored and/or disposed of as permitted by applicable Law. If Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant: (a) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had
-29-
been earned at the time of such termination; plus (b) the worth at the time of the 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 (c) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus (d) 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 including, but not limited to: the total unamortized sum of any Abated Amount and Applied Allowance (amortized on a straight line basis over the initial Term of this Lease), tenant improvement costs; attorneys’ fees; brokers’ commissions; any costs required to return the Premises to the conditioned required at the end of the Term; the costs of refurbishment, alterations, renovation and repair of the Premises; and removal (including the repair of any damage caused by such removal) and storage (or disposal) of Tenant’s personal property, equipment, fixtures, Alterations, Tenant Improvements and any other items which Tenant is required under this Lease to remove but does not remove; plus (e) all other monetary damages allowed under applicable Law.
As used in Sections 23.1 (a) and 23.1(b) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate set forth in the Summary. As used in Section 23.1(c) above, the “worth at the time of award” is 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%). To the extent the Premises are located in California, Tenant hereby waives for Tenant and all those claiming under Tenant all right now or hereafter existing including, without limitation, any rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179 and Civil Code Section 1950.7 to redeem by order or judgment of any court or by any legal process or writ, Tenant’s right of occupancy of the Premises after any termination of this Lease.
23.2 Landlord’s Remedies; Continuation of Lease; Re-Entry Rights. In the event of any such Default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall also have the right to (a) continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, and (b) with or without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed, stored and/or disposed of as permitted by applicable Law. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 23.2, and no acceptance of surrender of the Premises or other action on Landlord’s part, shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. No notice from Landlord or notice given under a forcible entry and detainer statute or similar Laws will constitute an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of any Default, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such Default.
23.3 Landlord’s Right to Perform. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease, all covenants and agreements by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any abatement or offset of Rent. In the event of any Default by Tenant, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any of Tenant’s obligations, make such payment or perform such other act as required to cure such Default on behalf of Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs incurred by Landlord in performing such other acts shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days after demand therefor as Additional Rent.
23.4 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord contained in this Article 23 and elsewhere in this Lease shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive of the other, and Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by law or in equity, whether or not stated in this Lease. Nothing in this Article 23 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect Tenant’s indemnification of Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease.
ARTICLE 24 - ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord and its employees and agents shall at all reasonable times have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply any service required to be provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease, to exhibit the Premises to prospective lenders or purchasers (or during the last six (6) months of the Term or during any uncured material monetary default by Tenant, to prospective tenants), to post notices of non-responsibility, and/or to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building or Property, all without being deemed guilty of or liable for any breach of Landlord’s covenant of quiet enjoyment or any eviction of Tenant, and without abatement of Rent. In exercising such entry rights, Landlord shall minimize, to the extent reasonably practicable, the interference with Tenant’s business, and shall provide Tenant with at least one (1) business day’s advance notice (oral or written) of such entry (except in emergency situations and for scheduled services, in which case no notice shall be required). For each of the foregoing purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises. Any entry to the Premises obtained by Landlord by any of said means or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, or grounds for any abatement or reduction of Rent and Landlord shall not have any liability to Tenant for any damages or losses on account of any such entry by Landlord.
-30-
ARTICLE 25 - LIMITATION ON LANDLORD’S LIABILITY
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, the obligations of Landlord under this Lease (including as to any actual or alleged breach or default by Landlord) do not constitute personal obligations of the individual members, managers, investors, partners, directors, officers, or shareholders of Landlord or Landlord’s members or partners, and Tenant shall not seek recourse against the individual members, managers, investors, partners, directors, officers, or shareholders of Landlord or Landlord’s members or partners or any other persons or entities having any interest in Landlord, or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Lease. In addition, in consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder to Tenant and notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby covenants and agrees for itself and all of its successors and assigns that the liability of Landlord for its obligations under this Lease (including any liability as a result of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default hereunder by Landlord), shall be limited solely to, and Tenant’s and its successors’ and assigns’ sole and exclusive remedy shall be against, Landlord’s interest in the Property, and sales and insurance proceeds, and no other assets of Landlord. The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of the Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title to, or a lessee’s interest in a ground lease of, the Property. In the event of any transfer or conveyance of any such title or interest (other than a transfer for security purposes only), the transferor shall be automatically relieved of all covenants and obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease. Landlord and Landlord’s transferees and assignees shall have the absolute right to transfer all or any portion of their respective title and interest in the Premises, the Building, the Property and/or this Lease without the consent of Tenant, and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord’s part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.
ARTICLE 26 - SUBORDINATION
Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage(s), deed(s) of trust, ground lease(s) or other lien(s) now or subsequently arising upon the Premises, the Building or the Property, and to renewals, modifications, refinancings and extensions thereof (collectively referred to as a “Mortgage”). This clause shall be self-operative, but no later than ten (10) business days after written request from Landlord or any holder of a Mortgage (each, a “Mortgagee” and collectively, “Mortgagees”), Tenant shall execute a commercially reasonable subordination agreement. As an alternative, a Mortgagee shall have the right at any time to subordinate its Mortgage to this Lease. No later than ten (10) business days after written request by Landlord or any Mortgagee, Tenant shall, without charge, attorn to any successor to Landlord’s interest in this Lease. Tenant hereby waives its rights under any current or future Law which gives or purports to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any such foreclosure proceeding or sale. Should Tenant fail to sign and return any such documents within said ten (10) business day period, Tenant shall be in default hereunder. Concurrently with its execution and delivery of this Lease, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement from Landlord’s existing lenders, if any, with respect to the Building, using Landlord’s or such lenders’ commercially reasonable form(s), and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant, which provides that so long as Tenant is not in Default under the terms of this Lease, Tenant’s quiet possession and occupancy will not be disturbed. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant’s obligation to subordinate its leasehold interest and attorn to any Mortgagee shall be expressly conditioned upon Tenant’s receipt of a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement from such Mortgagee.
ARTICLE 27 - ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE
Within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, in a form substantially similar to the form of Exhibit F attached hereto. Any such estoppel certificate delivered pursuant to this Article 27 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of any portion of the Property, as well as their assignees. Tenant’s failure to deliver such estoppel certificate following an additional two (2) business day cure period after notice shall constitute a default hereunder. Tenant’s failure to deliver such certificate within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, and that not more than one (1) month’s Rent has been paid in advance.
ARTICLE 28 - RELOCATION OF PREMISES
Intentionally Deleted.
ARTICLE 29 - MORTGAGEE PROTECTION
If, in connection with Landlord’s obtaining or entering into any financing or ground lease for any portion of the Building or Property, the lender or ground lessor shall request modifications to this Lease, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after request therefor, execute an amendment to this Lease including such modifications, provided such modifications are reasonable, do not increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder, do not increase the Rent, or adversely affect the leasehold estate created hereby or Tenant’s rights hereunder. In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgagee covering the Premises or ground lessor of Landlord whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary, mortgagee or ground lessor a reasonable opportunity to cure the default (including with respect to any such beneficiary or mortgagee, time to obtain possession of the Premises, subject to this Lease
and Tenant’s rights hereunder, by power of sale or judicial foreclosure, if such should prove necessary to effect a cure).
-31-
ARTICLE 30 - QUIET ENJOYMENT
Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that, upon Tenant performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed under this Lease (including payment of Rent hereunder), subject to applicable notice and cure periods, Tenant shall have the right to use and occupy the Premises in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease as against all persons claiming by, through or under Landlord. This covenant shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only during its or their respective periods of ownership of the Building.
ARTICLE 31 - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
31.1 Broker. Each of Landlord and Tenant represents that it has not had any dealings with any real estate broker, finder or intermediary with respect to this Lease, other than the Brokers specified in the Summary. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) resulting from any breach by Tenant of the foregoing representation, including, without limitation, any claims that may be asserted against Landlord by any broker, agent or finder undisclosed by Tenant herein. Landlord shall indemnify, protect, and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) resulting from any other brokers claiming to have represented Landlord in connection with this Lease or from a breach by Landlord of the foregoing representation. The foregoing indemnities shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Landlord shall pay to the Brokers the brokerage fee, if any, pursuant to a separate written agreement between Landlord and Brokers.
31.2 Governing Law. This Lease shall be governed by, and construed pursuant to, the laws of the state in which the Building is located. Venue for any litigation between the parties hereto concerning this Lease or the occupancy of the Premises shall be initiated in the county in which the Premises are located. Tenant shall comply with all governmental and quasi-governmental laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to the Building, Property and/or the Premises, and all rules and regulations adopted pursuant thereto and all covenants, conditions and restrictions applicable to and/or of record against the Building, Property and/or the Site (individually, a “Law” and collectively, the “Laws”).
31.3 Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Article 25 above, and except as otherwise provided in this Lease, all of the covenants, conditions and provisions of this Lease shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives and permitted successors and assigns; provided, however, no rights shall inure to the benefit of any Transferee of Tenant unless the Transfer to such Transferee is made in compliance with the provisions of Article 20, and no options or other rights which are expressly made personal to the original Tenant hereunder or in any rider attached hereto shall be assignable to or exercisable by anyone other than the original Tenant under this Lease.
31.4 No Merger. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant or a mutual termination thereof shall not work as a merger and shall, at the option of Landlord, either (a) terminate all or any existing subleases, or (b) operate as an assignment to Landlord of Tenant’s interest under any or all such subleases.
31.5 Professional Fees. If either Landlord or Tenant should bring suit (or alternate dispute resolution proceedings) against the other with respect to this Lease, including for unlawful detainer, forcible entry and detainer, or any other relief against the other hereunder, then all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party therein (including, without limitation, its actual appraisers’, accountants’, attorneys’ and other professional fees, expenses and court costs), shall be paid by the other party, including any and all costs incurred in enforcing, perfecting and executing such judgment and all reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees associated with any appeal.
31.6 Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach by the other party of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant and condition herein contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may become established between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of, or in any way affect, the right of any party to insist upon the performance by the other in strict accordance with said terms. No waiver of any default of either party hereunder shall be implied from any acceptance by Landlord or delivery by Tenant (as the case may be) of any Rent or other payments due hereunder or any omission by the non-defaulting party to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect defaults other than as specified in said waiver.
31.7 Terms and Headings. The words “Landlord” and “Tenant” as used herein shall include the plural as well as the singular. Words used in any gender include other genders. The Article and Section headings of this Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part hereof. Any deletion of language from this Lease prior to its execution by Landlord and Tenant shall not be construed to raise any presumption, canon of construction or implication, including, without limitation, any implication that the parties intended thereby to state the converse of the deleted language. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each has participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Lease; therefore, in the event of an ambiguity in, or dispute regarding the interpretation of, this Lease, the interpretation of this Lease shall not be resolved by any rule of interpretation providing for interpretation against the party who caused the uncertainty to exist or against the draftsman.
-32-
31.8 Time. Time is of the essence with respect to performance of every provision of this Lease in which time or performance is a factor.
31.9 Business Day. A “business day” is Monday through Friday, excluding holidays observed by the United States Postal Service and reference to 5:00 p.m. is to the time zone of the recipient. Whenever action must be taken (including the giving of notice or the delivery of documents) under this Lease during a certain period of time (or by a particular date) that ends (or occurs) on a non-business day, then such period (or date) shall be extended until the immediately following business day.
31.10 Payments and Notices. All Rent and other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be paid to Landlord at the address designated in the Summary, or to such other persons and/or at such other places as Landlord may hereafter designate in writing. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder must be in writing and may be given by personal delivery (including delivery by nationally recognized overnight courier or express mailing service), or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, addressed to Tenant at the address(es) designated in the Summary, or to Landlord at the address(es) designated in the Summary. Either party may, by written notice to the other, specify a different address for notice purposes. Notice given in the foregoing manner shall be deemed given (i) upon confirmed transmission if sent by facsimile transmission, provided such transmission is prior to 5:00 p.m. on a business day (if such transmission is after 5:00 p.m. on a business day or is on a non-business day, such notice will be deemed given on the following business day), (ii) when actually received or refused by the party to whom sent if delivered by a carrier or personally served or (iii) if mailed, on the day of actual delivery or refusal as shown by the certified mail return receipt or the expiration of three (3) business days after the day of mailing, whichever first occurs.
31.11 Prior Agreements; Amendments. This Lease, including the Summary and all Exhibits attached hereto, contains all of the covenants, provisions, agreements, conditions and understandings between Landlord and Tenant concerning the Premises and any other matter covered or mentioned in this Lease, and no prior agreement or understanding, oral or written, express or implied, pertaining to the Premises or any such other matter shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest. The parties acknowledge that all prior agreements, representations and negotiations are deemed superseded by the execution of this Lease to the extent they are not expressly incorporated herein.
31.12 Separability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Lease shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision hereof, and such other provisions shall remain valid and in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.
31.13 Recording. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall record this Lease or a short form memorandum of this Lease.
31.14 Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent payment herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such Rent or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. Tenant agrees that each of the foregoing covenants and agreements shall be applicable to any covenant or agreement either expressly contained in this Lease or imposed by any statute or at common law.
31.15 Financial Statements. Upon ten (10) business days prior written request from Landlord (which Landlord may make at any time during the Term including in connection with Tenant’s exercise of any Option in this Lease, but no more often that two (2) times in any calendar year), Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (a) a current financial statement of Tenant and any guarantor of this Lease, and (b) financial statements of Tenant and such guarantor for the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally acceptable accounting principles and certified as true in all material respects by Tenant (if Tenant is an individual) or by an authorized officer, member/manager or general partner of Tenant (if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership, respectively). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no obligation to provide financial statements if such information is publicly available following a public offering of shares of stock on a national stock exchange.
31.16 No Partnership. Landlord does not, in any way or for any purpose, become a partner of Tenant in the conduct of its business, or otherwise, or joint venturer or a member of a joint enterprise with Tenant by reason of this Lease.
31.17 Force Majeure. If either party hereto shall be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required hereunder by reason of strikes, lock-outs, labor troubles, inability to procure materials (provided that if substitute materials are available, such inability shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event), failure of power, governmental moratorium or other governmental action or inaction (including, without limitation, failure, refusal or delay in issuing permits, approvals and/or authorizations, provided that any governmental inaction coupled with a party’s failure to diligently pursue a required governmental approval shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event), injunction or court order, riots, insurrection, war, terrorism, bioterrorism, fire, earthquake, or other reason of a like nature not within the reasonable control of the party delaying in performing work or doing acts required under the terms of this Lease (but excluding delays due to financial
-33-
inability) (such events are herein collectively referred to as “Force Majeure Events” and any delays caused by such events are herein collectively referred to as Force Majeure Delay(s)”), then performance of such act shall be excused for the period of such Force Majeure Delay and the period for the performance of any such act shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay. The provisions of this Section 31.17 shall not apply to nor operate to excuse Tenant from the payment of Monthly Base Rent, or any Additional Rent or any other payments strictly in accordance with the terms of this Lease.
31.18 Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which shall be one and the same agreement.
31.19 Nondisclosure of Terms. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms could adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord’s relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant agrees that it, and its partners, officers, directors, shareholders, members, managers, employees, agents and attorneys, shall not intentionally and voluntarily disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any newspaper or other publication or any other tenant or apparent prospective tenant of the Building or other portion of the Property, or real estate agent, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Landlord, provided, however, that Tenant may disclose the terms to prospective subtenants or assignees under this Lease.
31.20 Tenant’s Authority. If Tenant executes this Lease as a partnership, corporation or limited liability company, then Tenant and the persons and/or entities executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represent and warrant that: (a) Tenant is a duly organized and existing partnership, corporation or limited liability company, as the case may be, and is qualified to do business in the state in which the Building is located; (b) such persons and/or entities executing this Lease are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on Tenant’s behalf; and (c) this Lease is binding upon Tenant in accordance with its terms. Tenant shall provide to Landlord a copy of any documents reasonably requested by Landlord evidencing such qualification, organization, existence and authorization within ten (10) days after Landlord’s request. Tenant represents and warrants to Landlord that Tenant is not, and the entities or individuals constituting Tenant or which may own or control Tenant or which may be owned or controlled by Tenant are not, (i) in violation of any Laws relating to terrorism or money laundering, or (ii) among the individuals or entities identified on any list compiled pursuant to Executive Order 13224 for the purpose of identifying suspected terrorists or on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control at its official website, xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx/xxxxxx.xxx or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.
31.21 Joint and Several Liability. If more than one person or entity executes this Lease as Tenant: (a) each of them is and shall be jointly and severally liable for the covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease to be kept, observed and performed by Tenant; and (b) the act or signature of, or notice from or to, any one or more of them with respect to this Lease shall be binding upon each and all of the persons and entities executing this Lease as Tenant with the same force and effect as if each and all of them had so acted or signed, or given or received such notice.
31.22 No Option. The submission of this Lease for examination or execution by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or option for the Premises and this Lease shall not become effective as a Lease until it has been executed by Landlord and delivered to Tenant.
31.23 Options and Rights in General. Any option (each an “Option” and collectively, the “Options”), including without limitation, any option to extend, option to terminate, option to expand, right to lease, right of first offer, and/or right of first refusal, granted to Tenant is personal to the original Tenant executing this Lease or a Permitted Transferee and may be exercised only by the original Tenant executing this Lease while occupying the entire Premises and without the intent of thereafter assigning this Lease or subletting the Premises or a Permitted Transferee and may not be exercised or be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by any person or entity other than the original Tenant executing this Lease or a Permitted Transferee. The Options, if any, granted to Tenant under this Lease are not assignable separate and apart from this Lease, nor may any Option be separated from this Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise. Tenant will have no right to exercise any Option, notwithstanding any provision of the grant of option to the contrary, and Tenant’s exercise of any Option may be nullified by Landlord and deemed of no further force or effect, if (i) Tenant is in default under the terms of this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods as of Tenant’s exercise of the Option in question or as of the commencement of the Option event, (ii) Tenant has sublet all or more than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises except pursuant to a Permitted Transfer.

(m) Tenant’s Deliveries. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, at least five (5) days prior to the commencement of construction of Tenant’s Work, the following information:
(i) The names, addresses, telephone numbers, and primary contacts for the general, mechanical and electrical contractors Tenant intends to engage in the performance of Tenant’s Work; and
(ii) The date on which Tenant’s Work will commence, together with the estimated dates of completion of Tenant’s construction and fixturing work.
(n) Qualification of Contractors. Tenant has selected, and Landlord hereby approves, Xxxxxxx Architecture Interiors as Tenant’s space planning firm, ARC engineering as the MEP engineering firm and Sierra Pacific Constructors as the general contractor for the construction of Tenant’s Work. All contractors engaged by Tenant shall be bondable, licensed contractors, capable of performing quality workmanship and working in harmony with Landlord’s general contractor and other contractors on the job, if any, all as determined by Landlord and so as not to interfere with Landlord’s completion of Landlord’s Work. All work shall be coordinated with general construction work on the Site, if any.
(o) Warranties. Tenant shall cause its contractor to provide warranties for not less than one (1) year (or such shorter time as may be customary and available without additional expense to Tenant) against defects in workmanship, materials and equipment, which warranties shall run to the benefit of Landlord or shall be assignable to Landlord to the extent that Landlord is obligated to maintain any of the improvements covered by such warranties.
(p) Landlord’s Performance of Work. Within ten (10) working days after receipt of Landlord’s notice of Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Work Letter, if Tenant shall fail to commence to cure such failure, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to perform, on behalf of and for the account of Tenant, subject to reimbursement of the cost thereof by Tenant, any and all of Tenant’s Work which Landlord determines, in its reasonable discretion, should be performed immediately and on an emergency basis for the best interest of the Premises including, without limitation, work which pertains to structural components, mechanical, sprinkler and general utility systems, roofing and removal of unduly accumulated construction material and debris; provided, however, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to give Tenant at least ten (10) days prior notice to the performance of any of Tenant’s Work.
(q) As-Built Drawings. Tenant shall cause “As-Built Drawings” (excluding furniture, fixtures and equipment) to be delivered to Landlord and/or Landlord’s representative no later than sixty (60) days after the completion of Tenant’s Work. In the event these drawings are not received by such date, Landlord may, at its election, cause said drawings to be obtained and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, the cost of producing these drawings.
(r) Landlord Delay. The term “Landlord Delay” as used in the Lease and/or this Work Letter shall mean (a) any failure of Landlord to provide the access or utilization of Building entries, loading docks, elevator service, utilities or other services as required by this Work Letter, after written notice of such failure and the passage of three (3) business days thereafter without cure, (b) any failure to Landlord to approve or reasonably disapprove any items within the timeframe required under this Work Letter, (c) any delay by Landlord in delivering the Premises or portions thereof by the date required under the Lease, including delivery of the Verizon Space and GD Space, and (d) any other delay caused by Landlord, or its respective agents, contractors, employees, or servants, including Landlord’s inference with the construction of the Tenant Improvements in connection with completing Landlord’s Work, or Landlord’s failure to deliver the Premises within the time periods required under the Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord Delays shall not include any delays directly resulting from a Tenant Delay, or any delays which do not actually and directly result in a delay in the substantial completion of Tenant’s Work from the date that Tenant’s Work would otherwise be substantially completed absent such delay. Each day of
EXHIBIT X-0
-0-
Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx shall delay by one day the Commencement Date. Should any such Landlord Delay occur, Landlord and Tenant shall execute and enter into an amendment to the Lease, promptly following the substantial completion of Tenant’s Work in the Premises, adjusting the Term of the Lease based upon a final reconciliation of the Commencement Date in accordance with the foregoing.
9. BUILDING SERVICES. Landlord shall not impose any direct charge to Tenant for any kind for profit, utilities, and use of parking or elevator, overhead or any construction or supervisory fee, in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements. Landlord shall provide at no charge to Tenant reasonable quantities of HVAC and electricity usage during the construction of the Tenant Improvements. During construction of the Tenant Improvements, and subject to the terms of the Lease, Tenant shall provide and maintain to Landlord’s satisfaction, temporary restroom facilities (i.e., portable restrooms) for use by its contractors and subcontractors, in a location designated by Landlord. Tenant shall immediately cause the temporary restroom facilities to be removed upon substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements.

EXTENSION OPTION
RIDER NO. 1 TO LEASE
This Rider No. 1 is made and entered into by and between LBA REALTY FUND III - COMPANY VII, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and INPHI CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), as of the day and year of the Lease between Landlord and Tenant to which this Rider is attached. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, the provisions set forth below shall be deemed to be part of the Lease and shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of the Lease. All references in the Lease and in this Rider to the “Lease” shall be construed to mean the Lease (and all Exhibits and Riders attached thereto), as amended and supplemented by this Rider. All capitalized terms not defined in this Rider shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Lease.
1. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an option (the “Extension Option”) to extend the Term of the Lease for an additional period of five (5) years (the “Option Term”), on the same terms, covenants and conditions as provided for in the Lease during the initial Term, except for the Monthly Base Rent, which shall initially be equal to the “fair market rental rate” for the Premises for the Option Term as defined and determined in accordance with the provisions of the Fair Market Rental Rate Rider attached to the Lease as Rider No. 2, subject to fair market annual rent adjustments during the Option Term.
2. The Extension Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice (“Extension Notice”) delivered by Tenant to Landlord no sooner than that date which is twelve (12) months and no later than that date which is eight (8) months prior to the expiration of the then current Term of the Lease.

XXXX XXXXXX XENTAL RATE
RIDER NO. 2 TO LEASE
This Rider No. 2 is made and entered into by and between LBA REALTY FUND III - COMPANY VII, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and INPHI CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), as of the day and year of the Lease between Landlord and Tenant to which this Rider is attached. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything contained in the Lease to the contrary, the provisions set forth below shall be deemed to be part of the Lease and shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of the Lease. All references in the Lease and in this Rider to the “Lease” shall be construed to mean the Lease (and all Exhibits and Riders attached thereto), as amended and supplemented by this Rider. All capitalized terms not defined in this Rider shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Lease.
1. The term “fair market rental rate” as used in this Rider and any Rider attached to the Lease means the annual amount per square foot, projected for each year of the Option Term (including annual adjustments), that a willing, non-equity tenant (excluding sublease and assignment transactions) would pay, and a willing landlord of a comparable quality building located in the Thousand Oaks and Westlake Village, California area would accept, in an arm’s length transaction for space of comparable size, quality and floor height as the Premises, taking into account the age, quality and layout of the existing improvements in the Premises, the length of the lease term and the creditworthiness of the tenant, and taking into account items that professional real estate brokers or professional real estate appraisers customarily consider, including, but not limited to, rental rates, space availability, tenant size, tenant improvement allowances, parking charges and any other lease considerations, if any, then being charged or granted by Landlord or the lessors of such similar buildings. All economic terms other than Monthly Base Rent, such as tenant improvement allowance amounts, if any, operating expense allowances, parking charges, etc., will be established by Landlord and will be factored into the determination of the fair market rental rate for the Option Term. Accordingly, the fair market rental rate will be an effective rate, not specifically including, but accounting for, the appropriate economic considerations described above.
2. If Landlord determines that the Option Term’s initial Monthly Base Rent is to be based on the fair market rental rate for the Premises, the Landlord shall provide written notice of Landlord’s determination of the fair market rental rate not later than sixty (60) days after the last day upon which Tenant may timely exercise the right giving rise to the necessity for such fair market rental rate determination. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days (“Tenant’s Review Period”) after receipt of Landlord’s notice of the fair market rental rate within which to accept such fair market rental rate or to reasonably object thereto in writing. Failure of Tenant to so object to the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord in writing within Tenant’s Review Period shall conclusively be deemed Tenant’s rejection thereof, in which case Tenant’s exercise of its Extension Option shall null and void and of no further force or effect. If within Tenant’s Review Period Tenant reasonably objects to or is deemed to have disapproved the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord, Landlord and Tenant will meet together with their respective legal counsel to present and discuss their individual determinations of the fair market rental rate for the Premises under the parameters set forth in Paragraph 1 above and shall diligently and in good faith attempt to negotiate a rental rate on the basis of such individual determinations. Such meeting shall occur no later than ten (10) days after the expiration of Tenant’s Review Period. The parties shall each provide the other with such supporting information and documentation as they deem appropriate. At such meeting if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the fair market rental rate, they shall each submit to the other their respective best and final offer as to the fair market rental rate. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on such fair market rental rate within five (5) business days following such a meeting (the “Outside Agreement Date”), Tenant’s Extension Option will be deemed null and void unless Tenant demands appraisal, in which event each party’s determination shall be submitted to appraisal in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 below.
3. (a) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one (1) independent appraiser who shall by profession be an M.A.I. certified real estate appraiser who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial (including office) properties in the Thousand Oaks and Westlake Village, California area. The determination of the appraisers shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s last proposed (as of the Outside Agreement Date) best and final fair market rental rate for the Premises is the closest to the actual fair market rental rate for the Premises as determined by the appraisers, taking into account the requirements specified in Section 1 above. Each such appraiser shall be appointed within ten (10) business days after the Outside Agreement Date.
(b) The two (2) appraisers so appointed shall within ten (10) business days after the date of the appointment of the last appointed appraiser agree upon and appoint a third appraiser who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two (2) appraisers.
(c) The three (3) appraisers shall within ten (10) business days after the appointment of the third appraiser reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted best and final fair market rental rate, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof. During such ten (10) business day period, Landlord and Tenant may submit to the appraisers such information and documentation to support their respective positions as they shall deem reasonably relevant and Landlord and Tenant may each appear before the appraisers jointly to question and respond to questions from the appraisers.
(d) The decision of the majority of the three (3) appraisers shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant and neither party shall have the right to reject the decision or to undo the exercise of the applicable Option. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within the time period specified in Section 3(a) hereinabove, the
RIDER NO. 2
1
appraiser appointed by one of them shall within ten (10) business days following the date on which the party failing to appoint an appraiser could have last appointed such appraiser reach a decision based upon the same procedures as set forth above (i.e., by selecting either Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted best and final fair market rental rate), and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such appraiser’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant and neither party shall have the right to reject the decision or to undo the exercise of the applicable Option.
(e) If the two (2) appraisers fail to agree upon and appoint a third appraiser, either party, upon ten (10) days written notice to the other party, can apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of V County to appoint a third appraiser meeting the qualifications set forth herein. The third appraiser, however, selected shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either party.
(f) The cost of each party’s appraiser shall be the responsibility of the party selecting such appraiser, and the cost of the third appraiser (or arbitration, if necessary) shall be shared equally by Landlord and Tenant.
(g) If the process described hereinabove has not resulted in a selection of either Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted best and final fair market rental rate by the commencement of the applicable Option Term, then the fair market rental rate estimated by Landlord will be used until the appraisers) reach a decision, with an appropriate rental credit and other adjustments for any overpayments of Monthly Base Rent or other amounts if the appraisers select Tenant’s submitted best and final estimate of the fair market rental rate. The parties shall enter into an amendment to this Lease confirming the terms of the decision.

WHEREAS, Tenant is the tenant under a Multi-Tenant Office Lease (FSG) from Landlord dated June 4, 2010 (herein, as it may from time to time be renewed, extended, amended or supplemented, called the “Lease”), covering a portion of the Property (said portion being herein referred to as the “Premises”); and
-1-
WHEREAS, the term “Landlord” as used herein means the present landlord under the Lease or, if the landlord’s interest is transferred in any manner, the successor(s) or assign(s) occupying the position of landlord under the Lease at the time in question.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Subordination. Tenant agrees and covenants that the Lease and the rights of Tenant thereunder, all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the property covered by the Lease, and any lease thereafter executed by Tenant covering any part of the Property, are and shall be subject, subordinate and inferior to (a) the Deed of Trust and the rights of Administrative Agent and Lenders thereunder, and all right, title and interest of Administrative Agent and Lenders in the Property, and (b) all other security documents now or hereafter securing payment of any indebtedness of Landlord (or any prior landlord) to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders which cover or affect the Property (the “Security Documents”). This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to subordinate the Lease to any mortgage, deed of trust or other security document other than those referred to in the preceding sentence, securing the indebtedness to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Security Documents shall not cover or encumber, and the rights of Administrative Agent and Lenders thereunder shall not extend to, any trade fixtures, furniture, equipment or other personal property, in each case, owned by Tenant and at any time placed or installed at the Property.
2. Nondisturbance. Administrative Agent agrees that so long as the Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default in the payment of rent, additional rent or other payments or in the performance of any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed (beyond the period, if any, specified in the Lease within which Tenant may cure such default), and subject to any notice requirements specified in the Lease,
(a) Tenant’s possession, occupancy use and quiet enjoyment of the Premises under the Lease shall not be disturbed or interfered with by Administrative Agent in the exercise of any of its foreclosure rights under the Deed of Trust or in connection with any conveyance in lieu of foreclosure;
(b) The Lease shall remain in full force and effect for the full term thereof (subject to the terms and conditions thereof), as the same may be extended in accordance with its terms; and
(c) Administrative Agent will not join Tenant as a party defendant for the purpose of terminating Tenant’s interest and estate under the Lease in any proceeding for foreclosure of the Deed of Trust.
3. Attornment.
(a) Tenant covenants and agrees that in the event of foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, whether by power of sale or by court action, or upon a transfer of the Property by conveyance in lieu of foreclosure (the purchaser at foreclosure or the transferee in lieu of
-2-
foreclosure, including Administrative Agent or any Lender if it is such purchaser or transferee, being herein called “New Owner”), Tenant shall attorn to New Owner as Tenant’s new landlord, and agrees that the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Tenant and New Owner upon all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements set forth in the Lease and this Agreement, except for provisions which are impossible for New Owner to perform; provided, however, that in no event shall New Owner be:
(i) liable for any act, omission, default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty of any previous landlord (including Landlord) or obligations accruing prior to New Owner’s actual ownership of the Property;
(ii) subject to any offset, defense, claim or counterclaim which Tenant might be entitled to assert against any previous landlord (including Landlord);
(iii) bound by any payment of rent, additional rent or other payments made by Tenant to any previous landlord (including Landlord) for more than one (1) month in advance;
(iv) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease hereafter made, or consent or acquiescence by any previous landlord (including Landlord) under the Lease to any assignment or sublease hereafter granted, without the written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; or
(v) liable for any deposit that Tenant may have given to any previous landlord (including Landlord) which has not, as such, been transferred to New Owner.
(b) The provisions of this Agreement regarding attornment by Tenant shall be self-operative and effective without the necessity of execution of any new lease or other document on the part of any party hereto or the respective heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns of any such party. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver upon the request of New Owner, any instrument or certificate which in the reasonable judgment of New Owner may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment, including a new lease of the Premises that is substantially identical to the Lease for the unexpired term of the Lease (including any extension options provided for therein, to the extent such extension options are exercised in accordance with the terms of the Lease).
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3(a)(i) above, New Owner shall be liable to Tenant from and after the date of attornment for the cure of non-monetary defaults or breaches under the Lease (which Landlord is obligated to cure under the terms of the Lease) to the extent such defaults or breaches continue after the date of attornment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3(a)(ii) above, New Owner shall be subject to the abatement of Monthly Base Rent (as defined in the Lease) for the periods of February through May, 2011 and June through October, 2012, on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 1.8 of the Lease.
-3-
4. Estoppel Certificate. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver from time to time, upon the request of Landlord or of any holder(s) of any of the indebtedness or obligations secured by the Deed of Trust, a certificate regarding the status of the Lease, certifying (a) that the Lease is in full force and effect, (b) the date through which rentals have been paid, (c) the date of the commencement of the term of the Lease, (d) the nature of any amendments or modifications of the Lease, (e) that to Tenant’s actual knowledge no default, or state of facts which with the passage of time or notice (or both) would constitute a default, exists under the Lease, (f) that to Tenant’s actual knowledge, no setoffs, recoupments, estoppels, claims or counterclaims exist against Landlord, and (g) such other matters as may be reasonably requested. If any of the foregoing statements are untrue, Tenant’s certificate shall state the reasons therefor.
5. Acknowledgment and Agreement by Tenant. Tenant acknowledges and agrees as follows:
(a) Tenant acknowledges that in connection with the financing of the Property, Landlord is executing and delivering to Administrative Agent the Deed of Trust which contains an assignment of leases and rents. Tenant hereby expressly consents to such assignment and agrees that such assignment shall, in all respects, be superior to any interest Tenant has in the Lease or the Property, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Landlord and Tenant will not amend, alter or waive any provision of, or consent to the amendment, alteration or waiver of, any provision of the Lease without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall not prepay any rents or other sums due under the Lease for more than one (1) month in advance of the due date therefor. Tenant acknowledges that Administrative Agent and each Lender will rely upon this instrument in connection with such financing.
(b) Neither Administrative Agent, nor any Lender, in making any disbursements to Landlord, is under no obligation or duty to oversee or direct the application of the proceeds of such disbursements, and such proceeds may be used by Landlord for purposes other than improvement of the Property.
(c) From and after the date hereof, in the event of any act or omission by Landlord which would give Tenant the right, either immediately or after the lapse of time, to terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant will not exercise any such right (i) until it has given written notice of such act or omission to Administrative Agent, and (ii) until the same period of time as is given to Landlord under the Lease to cure such act or omission shall have elapsed following such giving of notice to Administrative Agent (which period of time shall run concurrently with the time period afforded Landlord) and following the time when Administrative Agent shall have become entitled under the Deed of Trust to remedy the same. In no event will Tenant exercise any such right less than 30 days after receipt of such notice or prior to the passage of such longer period of time as may be necessary to cure or remedy such default, act or omission including such period of time necessary to obtain possession of the Property and thereafter cure such default, act or omission, during which period of time Administrative Agent shall be permitted to cure or remedy such default, act or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Administrative Agent, nor any Lender, shall have any duty or obligation to cure or remedy any breach or default. It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not, as to Administrative Agent or any Lender, require cure of any such default which is personal to Landlord and therefore not susceptible to cure by Administrative Agent or such Lender.
-4-
(d) In the event that Administrative Agent notifies Tenant of a default under the Deed of Trust, Note or Security Documents and demands that Tenant pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Administrative Agent, Tenant shall honor such demand and pay the full amount of its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Administrative Agent, without offset, or as otherwise required pursuant to such notice beginning with the payment next due after such notice of default, without inquiry as to whether a default actually exists under the Deed of Trust, Security Documents or otherwise in connection with the Note, and notwithstanding any contrary instructions of or demands from Landlord. Landlord hereby authorizes Tenant to make such payments to Administrative Agent upon reliance on Administrative Agent’s written notice (without any inquiry into the factual basis for such notice or any prior notice to or consent from Landlord), acknowledges that Tenant’s payment of rent to Administrative Agent shall satisfy Tenant’s obligation to pay rental under the Lease, notwithstanding any dispute between Administrative Agent and Landlord, and hereby releases Tenant from all liability to landlord in connection with Tenant’s compliance with Administrative Agent’s written instructions. Tenant shall not be liable to Administrative Agent for rent paid to landlord prior to receipt of Administrative Agent’s written notice demanding Tenant’s payment of rent and other sums directly to Administrative Agent.
(e) Landlord and Tenant shall each send a copy of any notice or statement under the Lease to Administrative Agent at the same time such notice or statement is sent to or received by Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, if such notice or statement could reasonably be determined to have a material impact on the economic terms, operating covenants or duration of the Lease.
(f) Tenant has no right or option of any nature whatsoever, whether pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the Property, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, and to the extent that Tenant has had, or hereafter acquires, any such right or option, the same is hereby acknowledged to be subject and subordinate to the Deed of Trust and is hereby waived and released as against Administrative Agent, each Lender and New Owner.
(g) This Agreement satisfies any condition or requirement in the Lease relating to the granting of a nondisturbance agreement and Tenant waives any requirement to the contrary in the Lease.
(h) None of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any New Owner shall have any liability to Tenant or any other party for any conflict between the provisions of the Lease and the provisions of any other lease affecting the Property, including any provisions relating to exclusive or non-conforming uses or rights, renewal options and options to expand, and in the event of such a conflict, Tenant shall have no right to cancel the Lease or take any other remedial action against Administrative Agent, any Lender, or New Owner.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Lease or the Security Documents, none of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any New Owner shall be liable for or bound by any Construction-Related Obligation under the Lease. As used herein, a “Construction-Related Obligation” means any obligation of Landlord under the Lease to make,
-5-
pay for, or reimburse Tenant for any alterations, demolition, or other improvements or work at the Property, including the Premises; provided, however, that while the term “Construction-Related Obligation” includes initial construction of any tenant improvements or other construction in connection with the delivery of the Premises to Tenant, such term expressly excludes any and all ordinary repair and maintenance obligations of Landlord under the Lease arising (or continuing) after the date of attornment.
(j) Except with respect to any and all ordinary repair and maintenance obligations of Landlord under the Lease arising (or continuing) after the date of attornment, none of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any New Owner shall have any obligation nor shall they incur any liability with respect to any warranties of any nature whatsoever, whether pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, including any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, Landlord’s title, Landlord’s authority, habitability, fitness for purpose or possession.
(k) In the event that Administrative Agent or any New Owner shall acquire title to the Premises or the Property, neither Administrative Agent, nor such New Owner, shall have any obligation, nor shall it incur any liability, beyond Administrative Agent’s or New Owner’s then-equity interest, if any, in the Property or the Premises, and Tenant shall look exclusively to such equity interest of Administrative Agent or New Owner, if any, for the payment and discharge of any obligations imposed upon Administrative Agent or New Owner hereunder or under the Lease or for recovery of any judgment from Administrative Agent or New Owner, and in no event shall Administrative Agent, New Owner, or any of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, servants, employees or partners ever be personally liable for such judgment; provided, however, that, should a casualty occur after the date of attornment which affects the Premises, and Administrative Agent or New Owner, as applicable, shall default in its obligations, if any, under the Lease to restore the Premises and such default continues beyond any applicable cure period, then Tenant shall also have recourse to any insurance proceeds actually received by Administrative Agent or New Owner, as applicable, with respect to such casualty.
(l) Except as permitted under Section 1.33 and Article 10 of the Lease, Tenant will not permit, the generation, treatment, storage or disposal of any Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Lease) on the Premises or the Property, except for such substances of a type and only in a quantity normally used in connection with the occupancy or operation of buildings (such as non-flammable cleaning fluids and supplies normally used in the day-to-day operation of first class establishments similar to the Improvements), which Hazardous Materials substances are being held, stored, and used in strict compliance with federal, state, and local laws. Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall reimburse and indemnify Landlord, New Owner, Administrative Agent, and each Lender, as applicable, for any loss, liability, claim or expense, including cleanup and all other expenses, including legal fees that Landlord, New Owner, Administrative Agent or any such Lender, as applicable, may incur by reason of Tenant’s violation of the requirements of this Section 5(l); provided, however, Tenant shall have no liability for any Hazardous Materials that have migrated onto the Premises or the Property from neighboring properties (unless Tenant or any affiliate of Tenant in any way caused such migration or the release of any such migrating Hazardous Materials) or for any Hazardous Materials in existence at the Property prior to delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant (unless the release of such Hazardous Materials in existence at the Property prior to delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant was in any way caused by Tenant or an affiliate of Tenant).
-6-
6. Acknowledgment and Agreement by Landlord. Landlord, as landlord under the Lease and trustor under the Deed of Trust, acknowledges and agrees for itself and its heirs, representatives, successors and assigns, that: (a) this Agreement does not constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender of any of its respective rights under the Deed of Trust, Note or Security Documents, nor does this Agreement in any way release Landlord from its obligations to comply with the terms, provisions, conditions, covenants, agreements and clauses of the Deed of Trust, Notes and Security Documents; (b) the provisions of the Deed of Trust, Notes and Security Documents remain in full force and effect and must be complied with by Landlord; and (c) Tenant is hereby authorized to pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Administrative Agent upon receipt of a notice as set forth in Section 5(d) above from Administrative Agent and that Tenant is not obligated to inquire as to whether a default actually exists under the Deed of Trust or the Security Documents or otherwise in connection with the Notes. Landlord hereby releases and discharges Tenant of and from any liability to Landlord resulting from Tenant’s payment to Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement. Landlord represents and warrants to Administrative Agent that a true and complete copy of the Lease has been delivered by Landlord to Administrative Agent.
7. Lease Status. Landlord and Tenant certify to Lender that neither Landlord nor Tenant has knowledge of any default on the part of the other under the Lease, that the Lease is bona fide and contains all of the agreements of the parties thereto with respect to the letting of the Premises and that all of the agreements and provisions therein contained are in full force and effect.
8. Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by telegram, telex, or facsimile, by expedited delivery service with proof of delivery, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, at the addresses specified at the end of this Agreement (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of delivery service or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon receipt. This Section 8 shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Agreement or in the Lease or in any document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the loan evidenced by the Notes or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.
-7-
9. Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent is acting hereunder as Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement, on behalf of itself and the other lenders and financial institutions which, from time to time, own and hold a portion of the obligations secured by the Security Documents. As of the date hereof, the “Lenders” under the Credit Agreement are Bank of America, N.A., Comerica Bank, Xxxxx Fargo Bank (as successor-in-interest to Wachovia Bank, N.A.), U.S. Bank National Association, Union Bank of California, N.A., and Bank of the West. From time to time after the date hereof, additional lenders and financial institutions may become “Lenders” pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall be entitled to the rights and benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) This Agreement supersedes any inconsistent provision of the Lease; provided, however, as between Landlord and Tenant, the provisions of the Lease shall control to the extent of any inconsistency.
(b) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to derogate from or in any way impair or affect the lien, security interest or provisions of the Deed of Trust, Notes or Security Documents.
(c) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and each Lender, their respective successors and permitted assigns, and any New Owner, and its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that in the event of the assignment or transfer of the interest of Administrative Agent or any Lender, all obligations and liabilities of the assigning Administrative Agent or Lender under this Agreement shall terminate, and thereupon all such obligations and liabilities shall be the responsibility of the party to whom Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s interest is assigned or transferred; and provided further that the interest of Tenant under this Agreement may not be assigned or transferred without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
(d) THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW EXCEPT ONLY TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, THAT THE LAWS OF THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED NECESSARILY CONTROL.
(e) The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” as used in this Agreement refer to this entire Agreement and not to any particular section or provision. The terms “include” and “including” shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation.”
(f) This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.
(g) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not apply to or affect any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability did not exist.
