In consideration of the representations, covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree as follows:

(e) “Land” shall mean the parcel of land lying and being in the County of Riverside, City of Ontario, State of California, more particularly described in Exhibit A annexed hereto.

(f) “Premises” shall mean the Building Premises and Parking Area (as defined below).

Landlord does hereby lease and demise to Tenant, and Tenant does hereby hire and take from Landlord, the Premises for the Term. After the Commencement Date, the number of rentable square feet contained in the Building Premises for the purposes of this Lease shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of Article 30 hereof and in accordance with the definitions and method set forth on Exhibit C annexed hereto.

1.03 Workletter. The terms and provisions concerning the construction of and performance of the initial improvements, betterments and other work required to prepare the Premises for Tenant’s initial occupancy of the Premises are set forth in the Workletter annexed hereto as Exhibit D (the “Workletter”), which Workletter is hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

2. TERM

2.01 Term. The initial term of this Lease (the “Term”) shall commence on January 1, 2005, unless the Commencement Date is deferred as provided for in Article V of the Workletter attached hereto as Exhibit D, and, subject to Tenant’s renewal rights, shall end, unless this Lease is extended as provided for in Article V of the Workletter or is sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions hereof or pursuant to law, at 11:59 p.m. on the day preceding the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Expiration Date”), both dates inclusive. “Term” shall refer to the initial term and any renewal thereof.

2.02 Confirming the Commencement Date. Within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date has been finally determined in accordance with the provisions of the Workletter, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an agreement, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H, confirming the Commencement Date and the Expiration Date, but the failure of the parties to execute such agreement shall not defer the Commencement Date or otherwise invalidate this Lease.

3. RENT

3.01 Base Rent. (a) Tenant, for and in respect of the Premises, shall pay Landlord a base annual rent (“Base Rent”) at the following annual rates during the following periods:

(i) THIRTY TWO CENTS ($0.32) per rentable square foot of the Building Premises per month, during the period beginning on the Commencement Date to and including the last day of the thirtieth (30th) month thereafter; and

(ii) THIRTY FIVE CENTS ($0.35) per rentable square foot of the Building Premises per month, during the period beginning on the first day of the thirty-first (31st) month following the Commencement Date to and including the Expiration Date.

(b) Tenant shall pay Base Rent in equal monthly installments in advance on the Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term, without notice or demand therefor. If the Commencement Date or the date on which occurs the expiration (or earlier termination) of the Term occurs on a day other than the first or last day, respectively, of a calendar month, the Base Rent for the month in question shall be prorated on a per diem basis.

(c) Until the rentable square footage of the Building Premises is finally determined pursuant to the provisions of Article 30 hereof and in accordance with the definitions and method set forth on Exhibit C annexed hereto, Tenant shall pay Base Rent based on the assumption that the Building contains 568,000 rentable square feet. Promptly after the rentable square footage of the Building Premises is so determined, a retroactive adjustment in Base Rent shall be made and the appropriate payment shall be made by one party hereto to the other.

3.02 Additional Rent. All amounts, other than Base Rent, payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of this Lease shall be payable as additional rent (collectively, “Additional Rent”). The Base Rent and all Additional Rent are collectively referred to as “Rent.” During the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Taxes, Landlord’s Insurance and Common Area Expenses as Additional Rent in monthly installments of one-twelfth (1/12th) of Landlord’s estimate of the Additional Rent due in any calendar year commencing on the Commencement Date and continuing on the first day of each successive month during the Term. Landlord may, from time to time, make reasonable adjustments in its estimate of Additional Rent. Subsequent Additional Rent deposits by Tenant for such year shall be based on the revised estimate of Additional Rent. Within sixty (60) days of the end of the calendar year for which estimates of Additional Rent were made, actual Additional Rent due for such year shall be calculated by Landlord and sent to Tenant. If Tenant’s Proportionate Share of actual Additional Rent exceeds the deposits paid by Tenant based on Landlord’s estimates, Landlord shall xxxx Tenant for the excess amount and Tenant shall pay to Landlord said amount within thirty (30) days of receipt of such billing. If Tenant’s Proportionate Share of actual Additional Rent is less than the deposits paid by Tenant based on Landlord’s estimate thereof, Tenant shall, at the option of Landlord, be paid such excess amount or be given a credit for the excess amount against the next Additional Rent deposit due for the subsequent year. If the Term commences on any day other than the first day of January, or if the

Term ends on any day other than the last day of December, any Additional Rent due Landlord shall be pro-rated, based on a 365 day year. Upon expiration or termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay such pro-rated amount within thirty (30) days of receipt of such billing. This covenant shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

For purposes of this Lease, Tenant’s prorata share shall be 66.28% (the “Proportionate Share”), it being agreed that such percentage is subject to measurement as hereinafter provided in Article 30.

“Common Area Expenses” shall mean Landlord’s costs of operating, maintaining, protecting, repairing and replacing the Building, Land and Improvements, including, without limitation, gardening and landscaping, repairs and replacement of Building components, paving, curbs, sidewalks, drainage and lighting facilities, as may from time to time be necessary, painting, caulking, lighting, sanitary control, removal of trash, rubbish, garbage and other refuse (provided, however, that Tenant shall not be responsible for Landlord Repairs (as defined in Section 7.01(1) unless such replacement is required by reason of damage done by Tenant or its employees, agents, contractors or invitees). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, or elsewhere in this Lease, the following shall be excluded from Common Area Expenses:

(i) Costs associated with the operation of the business or entity which constitutes “Landlord,” as distinguished from the costs of operations of the Building, Land and Improvements, including but not limited to, partnership accounting and legal matters, cost of defending any lawsuits with any mortgagee, cost of selling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating any of Landlord’s interest in the Building, Land or Improvements, cost of any disputes between Landlord and its employees (if any) not engaged in the operations of the Buildings, disputes of Landlord with Building management, or outside fees paid in connection with disputes with other tenants;

(ii) Costs incurred in connection with the original construction of the Building or Improvements;

(iii) Costs of alterations or improvements to the premises of other tenants in the Building;

(iv) Depreciation, amortization, interest and principal payments on mortgages, and other debt costs, if any;

(v) Cost of correcting construction defects in the initial construction of the Building, including installation of the Building sprinkler system, major Building systems such as hearing, ventilating, air conditioning (“HVAC”) or other mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems of the Building of which notice is given to Landlord within one (1) year of the Commencement Date of the Lease;

(vi) Costs for which Landlord is reimbursed by its insurance carrier or any tenant’s insurance carrier;

(vii) Any bad debt loss, rent loss, or reserves for bad debts or rent loss;

(viii) Fines, penalties and interest for violations of law; and

(ix) Amounts paid as ground rental by Landlord.

It is understood that Common Area Expenses relating to the Building, Land and Improvements shall be reduced by all cash discounts, trade discounts or quality discounts, if any, received by Landlord or Landlord’s managing agent in the purchase of any goods, utilities or services in connection with the operation of the Building and the maintenance of the Land and Improvements. Landlord shall make payments for goods, utilities and services in a timely manner to obtain the maximum possible discounts, if any. In the calculation of any expenses hereunder, it is understood that no expense shall be charged more than once. Except as otherwise provided herein, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect an equitable pro-ration of bills for services rendered to the Building and to any other property owned by Landlord. Landlord agrees to keep books and records showing the Common Area Expenses and all other operating costs in accordance with a system of accounts and sound accounting practices consistently maintained on a year-to-year basis.

3.03 Disputes; Inspection Rights. In connection with Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent, the following shall apply:

(a) If any dispute arises as to the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent due hereunder, Tenant shall have the right after reasonable written notice to Landlord and at reasonable time to inspect Landlord’s accounting records at Landlord’s accounting office; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to a copy of Landlord’s records and Tenant’s review of Landlord’s records shall be limited to those records relating to the Common Area Expenses, taxes, insurance and utilities, and, if after such inspection Tenant shall disputes the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent owed, a certification as to the proper amount shall be made by a certified public accountant selected by Landlord and approved by Tenant, which approval shall not be withheld or delayed, and which certification shall be final and conclusive. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such certification unless it is determined that Landlord’s original statement overstated that portion of the Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Common Area Expenses which constitute the Controllable Expenses by more than five percent (5%).

(b) In no event shall Tenant be entitled to dispute the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent levying more than one (1) year previous to Tenant’s written notice of the dispute given to Landlord. Further, Tenant shall not be entitled to dispute the amount of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Additional Rent if Tenant is in material default under any provisions of this Lease or if Tenant has failed or refused to pay any amounts due under this Lease, including, without limitation, monthly installments of Base Rent and Additional Rent. Tenant shall not be entitled to withhold any sums due hereunder pending completion of inspection of Landlord’s records by Tenant or certification by Landlord’s certified public accountant. Landlord shall not be liable for and Tenant shall be solely responsible for and pay any and all costs, fees and charges relating to or arising out of Tenant’s inspection of Landlords’ records. Tenant, and any agents, consultants, contractors, accountants, auditors and employees used by

Tenant in conducting Tenant’s inspection of Landlord’s records agree that any information obtained during the course of the inspection and the results of such inspection are and shall be held strictly confidential by Tenant, its agents, consultants, contractors, accountants, auditors and employees. Prior to exercising any right to inspect Landlords’ records, Tenant agrees to execute and/or have executed by Tenant’s agents, consultants, contractors, accountants, auditors or employees a confidentiality agreement in a form mutually agreed upon by the parties, which confidentiality agreement must be agreed upon prior to exercising the right to inspect Landlord’s records.

3.04 Late Charge. If Tenant fails to pay Landlord any Rent due under this Lease by the date such amount is due (any such failure, a “Non-Payment Event”), and notwithstanding that Tenant may be entitled to a notice pursuant to Section 21.01(a), then such past due amount shall bear interest at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 28.02) from the due date therefor until the date paid. In addition, for the third and any subsequent Non-Payment Event in any twelve (12) month period, Tenant shall pay an additional late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the Rent which was not paid when due.

3.05 Management Fee. In addition to the Base Rent and all other Additional Rent payable under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an annual management fee (the “Management Fee”) at the following annual rates during the following periods:

(a) THIRTY TWO HUNDREDTHS OF A CENT ($0.0032) per rentable square foot of the Building Premises per month, during the period beginning on the Commencement Date to and including the last day of the thirtieth (30th) month thereafter; and

(b) THIRTY FIVE HUNDREDTHS OF A CENT ($0.0035) per rentable square foot of the Building Premises per month, during the period beginning on the first day of the thirty-first (31st) month following the Commencement Date to and including the Expiration Date.

Tenant shall pay the Management Fee in equal monthly installments in advance on the Commencement Date and thereafter on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term, without notice or demand therefor. If the Commencement Date or the date on which occurs the expiration (or earlier termination) of the Term occurs on a day other than the first or last day, respectively, of a calendar month, the Management Fee for the month in question shall be prorated on a per diem basis.

3.06 Security Deposit. Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord $198,800.00 as security for the performance by Tenant of every covenant and condition of this Lease by Tenant to be performed (the “Security Deposit”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord has waived the requirement of Tenant to deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit in the amount set forth in this Section 3.06 concurrently upon the execution of this Lease. Nevertheless, if Tenant defaults in the timely payment of the Base Rent or any Additional Rent required under this Lease on more than two (2) occasions during the Term of this Lease, then Tenant shall be required, within ten (10) days written notice from Landlord to deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit as security for Tenant’s complete performance of its obligations under this Lease and the

remainder of the terms and provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be applicable to the Security Deposit. The failure by Tenant to deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit as required hereunder shall constitute a material default under this Lease and Landlord shall not be required to deliver to Tenant any further notice of such default or allow any grace period for the cure of such default. Said deposit may be commingled with other funds of Landlord, and shall bear no interest. Upon the deposit of the Security Deposit, if Tenant shall default with respect to any covenant or condition of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the payment of any sum due hereunder, then Landlord may use such portion of the Security Deposit as is necessary to cure such default. In the event Landlord so uses the Security Deposit in part or in whole, Tenant will restore the Security Deposit to the required amount upon notice of said default and failure to do so shall be a default under this Lease. Should Tenant comply with all of the covenants and conditions of this Lease, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant at the expiration of the Term thereof. The Security Deposit shall not be deemed an advanced payment of Rent or measure of Landlord’s damages for any default hereunder by Tenant.

4. TAXES

4.01 Definitions. For purposes of this Lease, the following definitions shall apply:

“Tax Year” shall mean each twelve (12) calendar month period beginning on January 1st of any calendar year and ending on December 31st of such calendar year, all or any part of which period occurs during the Term.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Taxes shall not include, or there shall be deducted from Taxes, as the case may be, any inheritance, estate, succession, transfer, gift, franchise, net income or capital stock tax. If a fiscal period fixed by any governmental authority for any component of Taxes is a period other than a Tax Year, then such component of Taxes shall be averaged over the number of calendar months in such fiscal period and each such monthly portion shall be included in Taxes for the Tax Year in which such calendar month occurs.

4.02 Tax Payment. Landlord shall pay the Taxes to the applicable governmental authorities and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the amount of such Taxes as Additional Rent in accordance with Section 3.02 hereof.

Landlord may (1) contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Taxes, and (2) seek a reduction in the valuation of the Premises assessed for tax purposes by appropriate proceedings (“Tax Protest Proceedings”) diligently conducted in good faith and the cost of such Tax Protest Proceedings shall constitute a Common Area Expense.

(b) If Tenant requests in writing that Landlord commence Tax Protest Proceedings, Landlord shall, at its option, (1) diligently prosecute such Tax Protest Proceeding to conclusion and in which event Landlord shall provide Tenant with detailed information as to how Landlord will pursue such claim, or (2) allow Tenant to pursue such Tax Protest Proceedings with Landlord’s concurrence, in the name of Landlord with counsel acceptable to Landlord. In the event Landlord shall allow Tenant to prosecute such Tax Protest Proceeding as set forth in subclause (2) above, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to Tenant’s proposed counsel and shall grant or deny its consent within five (5) business days of Tenant’s request. Any recovery relating to taxes paid by Tenant under this Section 3.04 shall be paid to Tenant provided that Tenant shall pay directly all reasonable costs incurred in connection with the pursuit of any such Tax Protest Proceedings.

(b) Tenant shall comply with all Legal Requirements relating to the Premises, except that Tenant shall not be required to make any structural repairs or alterations to the Premises in order to comply with any Legal Requirement, except to the extent the need to comply therewith arises from Tenant’s particular manner of using the Premises (as distinguished from Tenant’s use of the Premises generally for warehouse/office use). Tenant shall have the right at its expense to contest, by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity or application, in whole or in part, of any Legal Requirement with which Tenant is obligated to comply by the preceding sentence and, so long as such proceeding is being conducted in good faith and with due diligence and deferral of compliance does not subject Landlord to civil penalties or criminal prosecution or interfere with other tenants use and enjoyment of the Building and Improvements, Tenant may defer compliance pending the outcome of such contest. Landlord shall, upon request by Tenant, reasonably cooperate with any such contest (at no expense to Landlord, unless Tenant pays such expense) and shall promptly execute and deliver to Tenant any documents, information, consents or other materials required or reasonably desirable to prosecute such contest.

(c) Landlord shall comply with all Legal Requirements relating to the Improvements and the Land, other than those with which Tenant is obligated to comply by Section 6.02(b) above. Landlord shall have the right at its expense to contest, by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity or application, in whole or in part, of any Legal Requirements with which Landlord is obligated to comply by the preceding sentence and, so long as such proceeding is being conducted in good faith and with due diligence and deferral of compliance does not subject Tenant to civil penalties or criminal prosecution, result in unsafe conditions nor interfere in any material respect with Tenant’s ability to use the Premises for the Intended Use, Landlord may defer compliance pending the outcome of such contest. Tenant shall, upon request by Landlord, reasonably cooperate with any such contest (at no expense to Tenant, unless Landlord pays such expense) and shall promptly execute and deliver to Landlord any documents, information, consents or other materials required or reasonably desirable to prosecute such contest.

6.03 Future Compliance Work. If Landlord, pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, shall be required to perform any Future Compliance Work (as defined below), then Landlord shall perform such Future Compliance Work in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements, and shall exercise all reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations that may be occasioned thereby. In no event shall Tenant be responsible for any supervisory fee, construction management fee, or any similar fee payable to Landlord or an affiliate of Landlord in connection with the performance of such Future Compliance Work. Tenant agrees to cooperate with Landlord in connection with the performance by Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, of any Future Compliance Work.

(a) “Future Compliance Work” means any structural repairs or alterations to the Building, the Improvements or the Land that are required to be made in order to comply with a Future Law (i) that pertains generally to warehouse or office facilities (i.e.,

Alteration for which Landlord’s consent is required or any Material Alteration, Landlord, within ten (10) business days after its receipt of such notice, shall either (i) give its written consent to the Alteration or Material Alteration, as applicable, or (ii) deny its consent and request revisions or modifications to such Alteration or Material Alteration, as applicable. If Landlord fails to deny its consent to an Alteration or Material Alteration, as applicable for which Landlord’s consent is required in a writing that sets forth the reasons for such denial within the aforesaid 10 business-day period, then Landlord shall be deemed not to have consented to the Material Alteration in question. Any dispute as to whether Landlord’s denial of consent to an Alteration or Material Alteration for which Landlord’s consent is required was proper shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with Article 26 below (except that the arbitrators shall be structural engineers).

8.04 Performance. Tenant at its own expense may perform all Alterations with contractors and subcontractors, provided that such contractors and subcontractors are approved in advance by Landlord which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Tenant shall perform all Alterations in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with all Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements. Landlord shall, upon Tenant’s request, furnish or execute promptly any documents, information, consents or other materials which are necessary or reasonably desirable in connection with Tenant’s efforts to obtain any license or permit for the making of any Alteration. Landlord shall not be entitled to impose upon Tenant any charges or fees of any kind (including, without limitation, charges or fees for profit, overhead or supervision) in connection with any Alterations.

8.05 Removal. (a) Any and all Alterations made by, or on behalf of, Tenant in, to or upon the Premises or the Improvements, as well as the Tenant’s Work (as defined in the Workletter), Tenant’s Additional Work (as defined in the Workletter) and any fixtures and Tenant’s Property installed on the Premises by Tenant, shall remain the property of Tenant and may be removed from the Premises at any time during the Term, provided that any damage caused by such removal shall be repaired by Tenant. Tenant may elect not to remove any or all of its Alterations, the Tenant’s Work, Tenant’s Additional Work, its fixtures or Tenant’s Property, in which case the same shall become the property of Landlord upon Tenant’s surrender of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall remove (i) its movable business equipment and other movable personal property (other than cables, wires and conduits located above hung ceilings, beneath raised flooring or behind walls), (ii) any Extraordinary Fixture (as defined below), (iii) the items installed pursuant to Section 29.01 below, (iv) the Tenant’s Additional Work (as defined below), including the warehouse racking system (the “Racking System”) to be installed in the Premises, and (v) any alterations, additions or improvements which Landlord has advised Tenant must be removed pursuant to Section 8.05(b). Landlord acknowledges that, in removing the Racking System from the Premises, (A) Tenant shall only be required to cut and file the bolts connecting the Racking System to the slab (rather than remove such bolts from the slab) and (B) Tenant shall not be required to remove the wiring relating to the Racking System that may be imbedded in the slab. In addition, at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall fill in, to a level condition, any trenches in the slab created by Tenant (it being agreed that, for the purposes of this sentence, any holes in the slab made by the bolts and wires related to the Racking System shall not be deemed to constitute trenches).

(b) Within 10 business days after Landlord’s receipt of any Alteration Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant (each a “Removal Notice”) whether Tenant must remove the alterations, additions or improvements at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), Landlord’s Work and Tenant’s Work as described in the Workletter shall not be considered an “Alteration.” If Landlord (i) gives a Removal Notice stating that Landlord will not require Tenant to remove any of the alterations, additions or improvements at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, or (ii) fails to give a Removal Notice within 10 business days after receipt of any Alteration Notice, then Landlord shall have waived its right to cause Tenant to remove the alterations, additions or improvements described in the Alteration Notice in question, and Tenant shall not be obligated to remove the same. “Extraordinary Fixture” means a Fixture which, at the time of installation, (aa) is not the type of improvement that is customarily found in a standard warehouse and/or office installation in Riverside County, California and (bb) is materially more expensive to remove than the type of improvement that is customarily found in a standard warehouse and/or office installation in Riverside County, California; provided that air handlers, chillers and other air conditioning equipment installed by or for Tenant shall in no event constitute “Extraordinary Fixtures”. By way of example only, vaults and safes are Extraordinary Fixtures. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.05 or elsewhere in this Lease, in no event shall any of the alterations, additions and improvements comprising the Base Building Work or the Tenant’s Work constitute an “Extraordinary Fixture,” and Tenant shall not be required to remove any portion of the Base Building Work or the Tenant’s Work at the expiration (or earlier termination) of this Lease; provided, however that Tenant shall be required to remove the alterations, additions and improvements comprising the Tenant’s Additional Work (as defined below).

8.06 Violations and Liens. Tenant, at its expense and with diligence and dispatch shall immediately procure the cancellation or discharge of all notices of violation arising from or in connection with any Alterations, or any other work, labor, services or materials done for or supplied to Tenant, or any person claiming by, through or under Tenant (other than the Base Building Work or the Tenant’s Work), which (i) shall be issued by any public authority having or asserting jurisdiction over the Premises and (ii) shall not be the result of any act, omission or negligence of Landlord or its agents, servants, employees or contractors. Tenant shall have no authority to create any liens for labor or materials on or against the Premises, the Building or the Land. Tenant may contest the validity of any lien filed against the Premises, the Building or the Land for any work, labor, services or materials claimed to have been performed for or furnished to Tenant or any person or entity holding the Premises or any portion thereof by, through or under Tenant, but Tenant shall cause any such lien to be discharged or removed by deposit or otherwise within thirty (30) days after Tenant receives written notice from Landlord of the filing of the same.

9. SIGNAGE

9.01 Tenant’s Rights. Subject to Landlord’s approval of the size, materials and location, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Tenant, at its expense and subject to its obtaining any required governmental permits and approvals and in accordance with the requirements of any covenants, conditions or restrictions recorded against the Land, may erect, place, maintain, repair and replace such identification and directional signs and monuments concerning Tenant’s business at the Premises as Tenant deems necessary or appropriate in or on the Premises and the Land (including, without limitation at the street entrances to the Land and on the Building exterior).

9.02 Tenant’s Obligations. Any signs or monuments installed or erected by or for Tenant shall remain Tenant’s property and shall be removed by Tenant at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and Tenant shall repair any damage caused by such removal.

Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant’s efforts to obtain any permit required or desirable in connection with the installation of any sign.

10. PARKING

Landlord, as part of the Base Building Work shall sealcoat and restripe, in the location shown on Exhibits B-1 and B-2 annexed hereto, surface parking adjacent to the Building and on the Land for not less than two hundred ninety (290) car parking spaces. Throughout the Term, Tenant shall have exclusive use of the portion of the parking designated on Exhibits B-1 and B-2 as the Tenant’s parking area (the “Parking Area”), or in the event Tenant occupies the remainder of the building of which the Premises is a part, then Tenant shall have exclusive use of all the parking on the Land.

11. ASSIGNMENT & SUBLETTING

11.01 Assignment. Tenant shall not assign this Lease without Landlord’s prior written consent; provided, however, that Tenant may, from time to time, without the need for Landlord’s consent, assign this Lease to any (a) Related Entity, (b) Successor or (c) Qualified Business Group Holder (as all such terms are defined below), provided that Tenant gives Landlord five (5) business days’ prior written notice of each such assignment. No assignment shall release, reduce or affect the liability of the Tenant for its obligations hereunder, and the original named Tenant shall remain primarily liable for such obligations.

11.02 Subletting. Tenant shall not sublet this Lease without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Tenant may, from time to time, without the need for Landlord’s consent, sublet all or any portion of the Premises to a Related Entity, Successor or Qualified Business Group Holder if Tenant gives prior written notice of each such sublease. No sublease shall release, reduce or affect the liability of the Tenant for its obligations hereunder, and the original named Tenant shall remain primarily liable for such obligations.

11.03 Consent Procedures. (a) If Tenant desires to (i) assign this Lease other than to a Related Entity, a Successor or a Qualified Business Group Holder or (ii) sublet the Premises or any part thereof to other than a Related Entity, a Successor or a Qualified Business Group Holder, then Tenant shall give Landlord notice (each, a “Transfer Notice”) of such intent. Each Transfer Notice shall be accompanied by (i) a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the identity of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the nature of its business and its proposed use of the Premises and (ii) in the case of a proposed assignment, current financial information with respect to the proposed assignee. Landlord’s consent to any such proposed assignment or to any such proposed sublease shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, provided that

(a) in the case of a proposed assignment, the proposed assignee shall have the financial ability to perform the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (it being agreed that any entity that has a tangible net worth equal to or greater than $50,000,000.00 and a minimum net income of $10,000,000 for each of the three (3) previous years shall be deemed to have the financial ability to perform the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, both as evidenced by financial statements prepared by certified public accountants. Net worth shall be calculated as of the last day of the proposed assignee’s then most recently completed fiscal year, using sound accounting principles.

(b) the proposed assignee or subtenant is of a character comparable to (or better than) that of other warehouse and/or office tenants in the area of the Premises, as determined by objective criteria;

(c) the intended use of the Premises by the proposed assignee or subtenant (A) is permitted by the first sentence of Section 6.01 above and (B) is no more likely to result in environmental contamination at the Premises than Tenant’s use of the Premises at the time of the assignment or subletting in question.

(d) in the case of a proposed assignment, such assignment will not violate the so-called “Party-In-Interest Rules” under ERISA.

(b) Landlord shall approve or disapprove a proposed sublease or a proposed assignment described in any Transfer Notice within 10 business days after Landlord’s receipt of such Transfer Notice and the information required pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.03(a) above. If Landlord fails to approve or disapprove a proposed sublease or assignment within such 10 business day period, then such proposed sublease or assignment shall be deemed disapproved; provided, however, if following such 10 business day period with no response from Landlord Tenant re-sends the Transfer Notice to Landlord, then, and in such event, if Landlord fails to approve or disapprove the proposed sublease or assignment within 10 business days after Landlord’s receipt of such re-sent Transfer Notice such proposed sublease or assignment shall be deemed approved.

11.04 Profit Sharing. (a) Except with respect to any subletting to a Related Entity, a Successor or a Qualified Business Group Holder, if the aggregate amount collected by Tenant as base rent and additional rent for any year under a sublease of all or any part of the Premises shall be in excess of Tenant’s Basic Cost (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the premises demised by such sublease for such year, then Tenant shall, in accordance with and subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of such excess (such excess, the “Sublease Profit”). For the purposes of calculating Sublease Profit, (i) such calculation shall be made annually on a calendar year basis, (ii) Subletting Expenses (defined below) shall be deducted from Sublease Profit as and when paid by Tenant (and carried forward against future Sublease Profits until fully credited to Tenant against Sublease Profits) so that Tenant shall not pay to Landlord any Sublease Profit until Tenant has first applied such Sublease Profit to pay or reimburse itself for all Subletting

Expenses, and (iii) the calculation of Sublease Profit in each calendar year for any sublease shall be made on a cumulative basis, taking into account any profit or loss in any prior year (with any unapplied losses in prior years being deducted from the Sublease Profit for the year in question). “Tenant’s Basic Cost” means, with respect to any calendar year for which any part of the Premises is sublet, the portion of the Base Rent, Additional Rent (including, without limitation, the Management Fee), Taxes, tangible personal property taxes, electricity, water, sewer and other utility charges attributable to such sublet space (as determined on a rentable square foot basis), in each case payable by Tenant for such calendar year. “Subletting Expenses” means, with respect to any sublease, the actual costs and expenses paid or incurred by Tenant in connection with such sublease, including, without limitation, the following: (1) the cost of making changes in the layout and finish of the sublet space and/or in the Premises for the subtenant or any construction or tenant improvement allowances granted to such subtenant in connection with such sublease; (2) the amount of any brokerage commissions, advertising fees, legal fees and disbursements paid by Tenant in connection with such sublease; (3) any rent abatement or free rent periods granted by Tenant to such subtenant in connection with such sublease; and (4) any amounts paid by Tenant to the landlord of any other premises then under lease to the subtenant or to the subtenant itself in order to buy out such lease as an inducement for the subtenant to enter into the sublease; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing costs and expenses are paid or incurred to a Related Entity, then such costs and expenses shall only constitute Subletting Expenses to the extent that the same do not exceed the amount that would have been incurred to an unaffiliated third party.

(b) Upon any assignment of this Lease (other than to a Related Entity, a Successor or a Qualified Business Group Holder ), Tenant shall pay to Landlord 50% of the Net Consideration (as hereinafter defined) actually received by Tenant in respect of such assignment from such assignee. For purposes hereof, “Net Consideration” means all sums paid by the assignee in consideration of such assignment, including any sums paid for the purchase or rental of any of Tenant’s Property, minus the sum of (x) the then net, unamortized or undepreciated cost of Tenant’s Property, determined on the basis of Tenant’s Federal income tax returns, plus (y) all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Tenant in connection with assignment, including, without limitation, all closing expenses, reasonable legal fees, brokerage expenses and transfer, gains or other taxes paid or incurred by Tenant in connection with an assignment; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing costs and expenses are paid or incurred to a Related Entity, then such costs and expenses shall only constitute Net Consideration to the extent that the same do not exceed the amount that would have been incurred to an unaffiliated third party.

11.05 Definitions. For purposes of this Lease, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Qualified Business Group Holder” means any entity which acquires all or substantially all of the business of any division of, or other operational group within, Tenant, which division or other operational group occupied space in the Premises prior to such acquisition (including an entity created pursuant to a spin off of such division or other group, or an entity acquiring such business pursuant to an out sourcing program).

“Related Entity” means any corporation or other business entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant. For purposes of the preceding

sentence, “control” means either (i) ownership or voting control, directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the voting stock, partnership interests or other beneficial ownership interests of the entity in question or (ii) the power to direct the management and policies of such entity.

“Successor” means any one of the following: (i) an entity resulting from a merger, consolidation, reorganization or recapitalization of or with Tenant or (ii) a purchaser (or other transferee) of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets and all or substantially all of such Tenant’s liabilities (including the liabilities of Tenant hereunder).

12. QUIET ENJOYMENT

13. SUBORDINATION AND NON DISTURBANCE

13.01 Existing Mortgages. Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, (i) there are no mortgages or deeds of trust that constitute a lien or charge on the whole or any portion of the Land, other than that certain Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Assignment of Rents and Leases (the “Existing Mortgage”), dated September 16, 2004 made by Landlord for the benefit of Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company (“Northwestern Mutual”), securing a promissory note in the original principal amount of $23,650,000.00, and (ii) there are no ground or underlying leases covering the whole or any portion of the Land or the Building. Simultaneously with the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall obtain for and deliver to Tenant a non-disturbance and attornment agreement in the form currently used by Northwestern Mutual and suitable for recording in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, as the same may be modified by Northwestern Mutual with the reasonable review and approval by Tenant.

13.02 Subsequent Mortgages. With respect to any mortgages or deeds of trust (each, a “Future Mortgage”) that hereafter become a lien or charge upon the Land or the Improvements, Tenant agrees to subordinate this Lease to such mortgage or deed of trust, by written agreement, but only if, simultaneously therewith, the holder of such subsequent mortgage or deed of trust, executes and delivers to Tenant (whether as part of the agreement of subordination or otherwise) a Non-Disturbance Agreement (as defined below). If the holder of any Future Mortgage executes, acknowledges and delivers to Tenant a Non-Disturbance Agreement (i.e., an agreement strictly meeting the definition in Section 13.03 below) and Tenant fails or refuses to execute and deliver such agreement within 15 business days after such agreement is received by Tenant, then this Lease shall automatically and without further act be deemed to be subject and subordinate to such Future Mortgage and such Non-Disturbance Agreement shall then be deemed to be in effect with respect to such Future Mortgage.

13.03 Non-Disturbance Agreement. As used in this Lease, the term “Non-Disturbance Agreement” shall mean an agreement between a Future Mortgagee and Tenant in the form proposed by such Future Mortgagee with such modifications as are reasonably approved by Tenant and suitable for recording.

14. INSURANCE

14.01 Landlord’s Insurance. (a) Landlord shall maintain at all times during the Term, the following, and the cost thereof shall constitute Additional Rent:

(i) Insurance on the Building, insuring against loss or damage on an “all risk” basis, in an amount sufficient to prevent Landlord from becoming coinsurer under provisions of applicable policies of insurance, but in any event in an amount not less than the actual full replacement value (without deducting depreciation) of the Building. In no event shall the deductible for the policy referenced in this Section 14.01(a)(i) be less than $10,000 or more than $50,000, unless Tenant notifies Landlord in writing that Tenant wishes to increase the amount of the deductible above, or decrease the amount of the deductible below, the aforesaid limits, and Landlord consents to such increase or decrease (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(ii) Commercial general liability insurance, including a contractual liability endorsement, and personal injury liability coverage, in respect of the Premises, with limits of not less than Five Million ($5,000,000) Dollars combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage liability in any one occurrence (which $5,000,000 limit may be achieved in combination with one or more umbrella liability policies).

(b) All insurance to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to this Article, (i) shall be carried in favor of Landlord and, with respect to the commercial general liability insurance, shall name Tenant as an additional insured, (ii) shall be in such form normally carried by prudent owners of premises similarly situated, due regard given to the type of premises (i.e., size, age, condition), its construction and its use and occupancy, (iii) shall be issued by domestic insurance companies, licensed to do business in the State of California and having a Best’s rating of AVIII or better or the then equivalent of such rating and having a policyholders surplus of at least $100,000,000, and (iv) shall be written on policies which have a term of not less than one year, and which shall provide that no cancellation, non-renewal, change or reduction in the coverages afforded under said policies will be effective until at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such cancellation or reduction has been given to Tenant in accordance with Article 20 of this Lease. Landlord shall promptly advise Tenant of any policy cancellation, reduction, non renewal, or amendment which adversely affects Tenant. Landlord shall have the right, to be exercised by written notice to Tenant, to cause the insurance to be maintained by Landlord pursuant to this Section 14.01 to be effected by a blanket policy issued to Landlord or any affiliate thereof covering the Premises and other properties owned by or leased to Landlord or any affiliate thereof; provided that such blanket policy (x) complies in all respects with the terms of this Section 14.01, and (y) expressly identifies the Premises as being covered by such blanket insurance policy.

(c) The original policy described in Section 14.01(a)(i) above (or, at Landlord’s election, a certificate thereof) and a certificate of the policy described in Section 14.02(a)(ii) above, together with evidence as to the payment of all premiums then due thereon, shall be delivered to Tenant immediately upon receipt from the insurance company or companies. New or renewal policies or certificates replacing any policies expiring during the Term shall be delivered to Tenant at least thirty (30) days before the date of expiration, together with proof satisfactory to Tenant that the full premiums have been paid.

(d) In the event that such insurance is included as part of a blanket insurance policy covering other properties, then the amount payable by Tenant shall be equal to the excess of (x) the premiums payable for such blanket policy inclusive of coverage for the Premises in accordance with the terms hereof, over (y) the premiums payable for such blanket policy exclusive of coverage for the Premises. Landlord shall use all reasonable efforts to minimize the premiums for the insurance required pursuant to this Section 14.01, including, without limitation, to the extent permissible under its applicable insurance policies, maintaining the insurance required by this Section 14.01 under a blanket insurance policy covering other properties owned and/or operated by Landlord or its affiliates, provided such insurance complies with the terms and provisions of this Section 14.01. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Common Area Expenses shall not include insurance premiums for rent loss or rent interruption insurance to the extent that such coverage is for any period longer than twelve (12) months.

14.02 Tenant’s Insurance. (a) Tenant shall maintain at all times during the Term (i) “all risk” property insurance covering (X) the portion (the “Tenant Improvements”) of the Premises installed by or on behalf of Tenant as Tenant’s Work and Tenant’s Additional Work, together with any Alteration made subsequent thereto, and (Y) Tenant’s Property, in both cases insured to a limit of not less than the full replacement value thereof, insuring against loss or damage by perils customarily included under standard “all risk” policies and (ii) commercial general liability insurance, including a contractual liability endorsement, and personal injury liability coverage, in respect of the Premises and the conduct or operation of business therein, with Landlord and any manager of the Premises whose name and address have been furnished to Tenant as additional insureds, with limits of not less than Five Million ($5,000,000) Dollars combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage liability in any one occurrence, which comprehensive general liability policy shall be primary and non-contributory (and which $5,000,000 limit may be achieved in combination with one or more umbrella liability policies).

(b) Each policy of insurance maintained by Tenant pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.02 shall provide that the same will not be cancelled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord (as an additional insured thereunder). Tenant, on or prior to the Commencement Date, shall deliver to Landlord certificates of insurance, showing that the insurance required to be maintained pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.02 is in force and will not be cancelled without thirty (30) days’ prior notice being furnished to Landlord. Thereafter, certificates showing renewal of, or substitution for, policies which expire or are terminated shall be furnished not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration or termination of each such policy.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.02, Tenant shall have the right, to be exercised by written notice to Landlord, to cause the insurance to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Section 14.02 to be effected by blanket and/or umbrella policies issued to Tenant covering the Premises and other properties owned by or leased to Tenant or any affiliate of Tenant.

14.03 Waiver of Subrogation. EACH OF LANDLORD AND TENANT (THE “DAMAGED PARTY”) HEREBY RELEASES THE OTHER PARTY (THE “RELEASED PARTY”) FROM ANY LIABILITY TO THE DAMAGED PARTY ON ACCOUNT OF ANY DAMAGE TO THE DAMAGED PARTY’S PROPERTY ARISING OUT OF ANY CASUALTY OR OTHER LOSS INCLUDED WITHIN A STANDARD FORM OF “ALL RISK” PROPERTY INSURANCE POLICY USED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (OR, IF THE COVERAGE PROVIDED THEREBY IS BROADER, THE FIRE AND CASUALTY INSURANCE ACTUALLY CARRIED BY THE DAMAGED PARTY), EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGE IS THE RESULT OF THE FAULT OR NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASED PARTY OR THE RELEASED PARTY’S EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS OR INVITEES. Neither Landlord nor Tenant shall obtain or accept any insurance policy which would be invalidated by or would conflict with such release; except that either of Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to obtain a policy of insurance that would be invalidated by or would conflict with such release (and, the release shall not apply with respect to damage covered by such a policy), if it is no longer possible for such party procuring the insurance in question to obtain a policy which would not be invalidated and would not conflict with such release, and such party so notifies the other party.

15. INDEMNIFICATION

15.01 Tenant’s Indemnification. Except as otherwise herein provided, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any claim for death, bodily injury or property damage asserted against Landlord by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any of its employees, agents, contractors or invitees and the costs of defense thereof, including reasonable attorneys fees.

15.02 Landlord’s Indemnification. Except as otherwise herein provided, Landlord shall indemnify Tenant against any claim for death, bodily injury or property damage asserted against Tenant by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of its employees, agents, contractors or invitees (but not other tenants of the Building) and the costs of defense thereof, including reasonable attorneys fees.

15.03 Right to Assume Defense. If any claim that is within the scope of any indemnity set forth in this Lease is asserted against any indemnified party, or any legal action with respect to any such claim is commenced against an indemnified party, such indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall have the right to assume the defense with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party subject to the approval of the indemnified party (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) or by the indemnifying party’s insurance company. If the indemnifying party so assumes the defense, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the fees of any separate counsel employed by the indemnified party.

16. DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION

16.01 Landlord’s Restoration Work. If all or any portion of the Building shall be partially or totally damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, then, unless this Lease is terminated as hereinafter provided, and whether or not the damage or destruction shall have

resulted from the fault or neglect of Tenant or its employees, agents, contractors or invitees, Landlord, at its sole expense, shall perform Landlord’s Restoration Work (as hereinafter defined) with reasonable dispatch and continuity. “Landlord’s Restoration Work” means all of the work necessary to repair and restore the Building to substantially the same condition as that in which it was immediately prior to the happening of the fire or other casualty; provided, however, that Landlord’s Restoration Work shall not include the repair and restoration of any Tenant’s Property, the Tenant Improvements or any Alterations. During the performance of Landlord’s Restoration Work, the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated as a result of the Premises being rendered untenantable by reason of any such fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.01, in the event a fire or other casualty to the Building occurs that is covered by the insurance referenced in Section 14.01(a)(i) above, Tenant shall, within 30 days after demand therefor, pay to Landlord the amount of any deductible in respect of the insurance adjustment relating to such fire or other casualty, but only if Landlord shall have complied with the last sentence of Section 14.01(a)(i) above (it being agreed that, in any event, the payment of such amount by Tenant is not a condition precedent to any of Landlord’s obligations under this Article 16).

16.02 Intentionally omitted.

16.03 Tenant’s Termination Rights; Landlord’s Termination Rights. (a) If the Building shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty and at least five percent (5%) of the Building Premises is rendered untenantable, then, Landlord, within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the fire or other casualty, shall furnish to Tenant an estimate (the “Estimate”), prepared and certified by an architect selected by Landlord and reasonably acceptable to Tenant, of the date (the “Estimated Date”) by which Landlord’s Restoration Work shall be completed. If the Estimated Date shall be a date later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the fire or other casualty, then Tenant may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Estimate.

(b) In any case where the Estimate does not give rise to Tenant’s termination right as aforesaid (as well as any case where Tenant does not elect to exercise its termination right as aforesaid), Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease, if for any reason, Landlord’s Restoration Work is not completed by the Outside Date (as defined below). Tenant may exercise the termination right described in this Section 16.03(b) by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord at any time following the Outside Date and prior to the date Landlord completes Landlord’s Restoration Work. The “Outside Date” shall be the Estimated Date; provided, however, that, the Outside Date shall be postponed (beyond the Estimated Date) by one day for each day that Landlord is actually delayed in completing Landlord’s Restoration Work by the Estimated Date by reason of an Event of Force Majeure (as defined below); provided, further, however, that (i) Landlord shall not be deemed to have been actually delayed in completing Landlord’s Restoration Work by an Event of Force Majeure unless Landlord, within 10 days after the occurrence of the applicable Event of Force Majeure, shall have notified Tenant of such Event of Force Majeure and of the fact that the same is going to delay Landlord in completing the Restoration Work by the Estimated Date; and (ii) in no event shall the Outside Date be postponed by more than ninety (90) days (in the aggregate) beyond the Estimated Date on account of Events of Force Majeure, no matter how many days Landlord is actually delayed in completing Landlord’s Restoration Work as a result of one or more Events of Force Majeure.

(c) If Tenant terminates this Lease as provided in this Section 16.03, then such termination shall be effective on the date specified in Tenant’s notice of termination. Any Rent paid by Tenant for a period beyond the date of termination of this Lease shall promptly be refunded by Landlord to Tenant.

(d) If (i) (A) the Building (or a portion thereof) shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, and (B) Landlord will be required to expend more than 50% of the full insurable value of the Building (replacement cost less the cost of foundation and piers) in order to complete the Landlord’s Restoration Work with respect to such fire or other casualty, or (ii) (X) the Estimated Date with respect to such fire or other casualty shall be a date later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such fire or other casualty, and (Y) Landlord elects not to perform, and in fact does not perform, the Landlord’s Restoration Work with respect to such fire or other casualty, then Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Estimate. If Landlord terminates this Lease as provided in this Section 16.03(d), then such termination shall be effective on the date specified in Landlord’s notice of termination but no earlier than thirty (30) days after the date of such notice as if said date were the date fixed for the expiration of the Term. Any Rent paid by Tenant for a period beyond the date of termination of this Lease shall promptly be refunded by Landlord to Tenant.

16.04 Intentionally Omitted.

16.05 Express Agreement. The provisions of this Article 16 shall be considered an express agreement governing any case of damage or destruction of the Building by fire or other casualty and any law now or hereafter in force which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article 16 shall have no application.

17. CONDEMNATION

17.01 Notice. Landlord and Tenant shall each notify the other if it becomes aware that there will or might occur a taking (each, a “Taking”) of any portion of the Premises by condemnation proceedings or by exercise of any right of eminent domain.

17.02 Termination of Lease. In the event of the Taking of the entire Premises, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such Taking. If there occurs a Taking of (a) more than ten percent (10%) of the rentable area of the Premises, or (b) a portion of the Land such that, in Tenant’s reasonable opinion, no other untaken Land is available and legally permitted to be used as the functional equivalent for the Land which was so taken and as a result thereof the Premises will not, in Tenant’s reasonable opinion, be adequate or suitable for the conduct of Tenant’s business, then, in either such event, Tenant may, at its option, terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within forty-five (45) days after Tenant receives notice of such Taking and the extent thereof. If Tenant terminates this Lease as provided in this Section 17.02, then such termination shall be effective on the date specified in Tenant’s notice of termination but no earlier than thirty (30) days or later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of

such notice as if said date were the date fixed for the expiration of the Term. If there occurs a Taking of twenty five percent (25%) or more of the rentable area of the Building Premises, then Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease.

17.03 Continuation of Lease. In any case that there occurs a Taking of a portion of the Land and this Lease is not terminated pursuant to Section 17.02 hereof, then this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Rent, and Landlord shall proceed with due diligence to perform any work necessary to restore the remaining portions of the Premises to the condition that they were in immediately prior to the Taking, or as near thereto as possible.

17.04 Condemnation Award. The award resulting from any Taking of the Land shall be the property of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to prosecute a separate action against the condemnor for its moving costs, the then unamortized value of Alterations installed by Tenant and the loss of value or utility of Tenant’s Property, provided that any such separate claim by Tenant does not reduce Landlord’s award.

Landlord, to the extent practicable, shall comply with Tenant’s aforesaid security regulations or procedures.

18.03 Standard of Care. Whenever Landlord shall enter upon and/or be present in the Premises, Landlord shall exercise all reasonable efforts to safeguard all persons and property in the Premises from any injury or damage that might be occasioned thereby and to minimize any interference with Tenant’s business operations that may be occasioned thereby.

21.03 Landlord’s Cure Rights. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default of the type described in Section 22.02(1) hereof) and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof from Landlord (or, if such observance or performance cannot be reasonably effected within such thirty (30) day period, Tenant has not in good faith commenced such observance or performance within such thirty (30) day period or does not thereafter prosecute the same with reasonable diligence to completion), then Landlord may (but shall not be obligated) immediately or at any time thereafter and without further notice perform the obligation of Tenant hereunder in respect of which Tenant has defaulted.

If Tenant fails to give Tenant’s Notice or to rescind Tenant’s Renewal Notice within such thirty (30) day period, then Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted Landlord’s Determination.

(d) Provided Tenant does not rescind Tenant’s Renewal Notice as aforesaid, if Tenant timely disputes Landlord’s Determination, then the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent shall be established by appraisal in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exhibit F annexed hereto and made a part hereof. Upon determination of the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent, Tenant shall have the right, within thirty (30) days following such determination, to rescind Tenant’s Renewal Notice by notice to Landlord, in which event this Lease shall terminate and expire as otherwise set forth in this Lease, subject however to Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent pursuant to the terms of the next following sentence, if applicable. If, for any reason, the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent applicable to the Renewal Term is not finally determined on or prior to the commencement of the Renewal Term, then (i) pending such final determination, Tenant shall initially pay Base Rent for the Renewal Term at the Base Rent rate in effect during the last month of the original Term, (ii) upon such final determination, the Base Rent for the Renewal Term shall be as provided in subclause (b) above, and (iii) in the event that such final determination results in a Base Rent rate in excess of the rate paid by Tenant during the Renewal Term, a retroactive adjustment in Base Rent shall be made and the appropriate payment shall be made by Tenant to Landlord.

(e) For the purposes of this Lease, the “Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent” for the Premises applicable to the Renewal Term shall mean an amount per annum determined by reference to the market for comparable facilities that a willing landlord would offer and a willing tenant would accept in an arms length transaction for a lease of the Premises (1) commencing on the first day of the Renewal Term, (2) expiring on the expiration of the Renewal Term, (3) providing for no free rent, no work to be done by landlord to prepare the premises for tenant and no contribution by landlord toward tenant’s cost to so prepare the premises, (4) without payment of a brokerage commission (unless there is in existence a commission agreement requiring payment of commission in connection with renewal), (5) providing for an annual management fee equal to one percent (1%) of the annual base rent, and (6) otherwise on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. To the extent that the appraisers determine “Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent” for any Renewal Term by reference to other transactions, they

shall consider the terms and conditions of such other transactions and if such other transactions have different terms and conditions (e.g., shorter or longer term, free rent, different escalation formulae or renewal options), the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent at issue shall be determined by the appraisers by making appropriate adjustment to the base rent of such other transactions.

If the rentable area of the Building Premises as determined pursuant to this Article 30 (including, but not limited to, the proviso contained at the end of this sentence) shall differ from the areas set forth in Article 1 of this Lease, then (a) the rentable area as determined by this Article 30 shall control, and (b) the Base Rent, the Proportionate Share and the Landlord’s Contribution (as defined in the Workletter) shall be adjusted on the basis of the rentable and usable areas so determined.

Promptly after the rentable area of the Building Premises is determined pursuant to this Article 30, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an agreement confirming the rentable area of the Building Premises and the Proportionate Share, but the failure of the parties to execute such an agreement shall not invalidate this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 30 or elsewhere in this Lease, the determination of the rentable area of the Building Premises in accordance with this Article 30 shall be conclusive and binding on Landlord and Tenant throughout the Term, notwithstanding any subsequent alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises that increase the rentable area of the Building Premises.

31. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a one (1) time right of first refusal to lease all (but not less than all) of the remaining Building consisting of approximately an additional 289,000 square feet (“ROFR Space”). Landlord shall not lease the ROFR Space to any other party unless and until Landlord shall have first offered to lease the ROFR Space to Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Section. Landlord shall offer to lease the ROFR Space to Tenant by a written notice (“ROFR Offer”) to Tenant. If Tenant desires to lease the ROFR Space, Tenant shall give Landlord a written notice of such election (“ROFR Acceptance”) within ten (10) business days of the ROFR Offer. If Tenant does not deliver an ROFR Acceptance within such ten (10) business day period, Tenant shall have no further rights with respect to the ROFR Space, and Landlord may then or thereafter lease all or any part of the ROFR Space to any party or parties on such terms as Landlord may elect. If Tenant delivers an ROFR Acceptance within ten (10) business days of the ROFR Offer, the ROFR Space shall be added to and become a part of the Premises as of the first day of the first calendar month next following the delivery of the ROFR Acceptance. This Lease shall be amended to include the ROFR Space upon all the same terms as are applicable to the original Premises and the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be increased to reflect the addition of the ROFR Space. If Tenant leases the ROFR Space, Landlord shall provide a Landlord’ Contribution for each square foot of ROFR Space. Such allowance shall be disbursed and used in the same manner as Landlord’s Contribution in the original Premises pursuant to this Lease.

Upon completion of plans, specifications and working drawings as required for construction of Tenant’s Initial Work, Landlord will apply for permits and approvals as required for construction of the Tenant’s Initial Work.

Upon receipt of required permits and approvals Landlord will cause the Tenant’s Initial Work to be completed in accordance with Article III above.

Landlord shall diligently proceed with the construction of the Tenant’s Initial Work and shall complete the Tenant’s Initial Work by January 1, 2005.

Completion of the Tenant’s Initial Work shall mean and require that the Tenant’s Initial Work is complete in all material respects and Tenant is able to lawfully use the Building Premises for the commencement of installation of Tenant’s racking system, subject to Tenant obtaining any required permits for such installation.

If for any reason (but subject to the provisions below concerning Tenant Delay (as defined below)) Landlord is unable to complete the Tenant’s Initial Work by January 1, 2005, such failure shall not affect the validity of the Lease; provided, however, that under such circumstances, the Commencement Date and the Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall be delayed for a period equal to such delay and the Term shall be extended one (1) day for each day of deferral of the Commencement Date.

(b) Tenant has delivered the Tenant’s space plan parameters for the Building Premises to Landlord, from which the Architect for the Tenant’s Work is developing the space plan for the Building Premises.

If Landlord or Tenant requests revisions of the space plan it will notify the other party thereof within three (3) business days of receipt and specify the requested revisions.

If Tenant requests revisions of the plans, specifications or working drawings it will notify Landlord thereof within three (3) business days of Tenant’s receipt and specify the requested revisions.

Upon completion of plans, specifications and working drawings Landlord will apply for permits and approvals as required for construction of the Base Building Work and Tenant’s Finish Work.

Upon receipt of required permits and approvals Landlord will cause the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work to be completed in accordance with the provisions of Articles II and III above. Landlord shall diligently proceed with the construction of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work and use reasonable efforts to complete same (with a certificate of occupancy, which may be temporary or conditional) thereof to Tenant not later than April 1, 2005. If for any reason (but subject to the provisions below concerning Tenant Delay), Landlord is unable to complete the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work on such schedule, such failure shall not affect the validity of this Lease; provided, however, that under such circumstances, the Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall be abated for a period equal to such delay and the Term shall be extended one (1) day for each day of such rent abatement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such completion has not occurred within ninety (90) days following the scheduled completion date (which scheduled completion date will be extended for Tenant Delays and Events of Force Majeure), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written notice to Landlord delivered at any time prior to Landlord’s completion of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work.

(i) The Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work shall have been completed, other than insubstantial details of construction, mechanical adjustment or decoration (“Tenant’s Punch List Items”), the non-completion of which does not interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises for the Intended Use or prosecution of the Tenant’s Additional Work;

(iv) Landlord shall obtain for and deliver to Tenant a title search (the “Title Search”) of the Land and Building, prepared by a title company licensed to issue title insurance in California, showing that, as of the Title Date (as hereinafter defined), (A) Landlord is the sole fee owner of the Land and Building, (B) there are no mortgages upon the Land or the Building or any part of either, other than those mortgages for which Tenant has received or will receive an Attornment and non-disturbance agreement as required Article 13 of the Lease, (C) there are no ground or underlying leases covering the Land or the Building or any part of either, and (D) there are no liens, encumbrances, security interests, charges, reservations, easements, rights of way, restrictive covenants, conditions, limitations, or any other burden covering or affecting the Land or the Building or any part of either, other than the Permitted Encumbrances. The “Title Date” shall be any date occurring not more than thirty (30) days prior to substantial completion of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work.

In the event that, prior to the satisfaction of any of the foregoing conditions, Landlord and Tenant agree that completion of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work has occurred, then Landlord shall still be obligated to satisfy such conditions in a timely manner subsequent to completion of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Finish Work.

5.02 Tenant Delay. Any delay in completion of the Work caused by an act or neglect of Tenant, or those acting for or under Tenant, including, without limitation, delay caused in production of plans and specifications, or by changes in plans and specifications, by or on behalf of Tenant and/or approval of plans and specifications by or on behalf of Tenant (each. herein, a “Tenant Delay”), shall constitute a Tenant Delay. Any delay caused by a Tenant Delay shall not cause a deferral of the Commencement Date or a deferral in or abatement of Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent in accordance with this Workletter and the Commencement Date and obligation to commence payment of Rent shall occur, and the obligation to pay Rent shall continue, as if the delay caused by the Tenant Delay had not occurred, and, in addition thereto, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all reasonable increased costs or damages incurred by Landlord attributable to Tenant Delays.

5.03 Representatives. Each party shall appoint and maintain a designated individual as its primary contact “Representative” for the design and construction of the Work.

portions thereof which would constitute Material Alterations if the Work described therein were Alterations under Article 8 of the Lease). In any case where Landlord disapproves Tenant’s Additional Work Plans on an TAW Plan Change, Landlord’s disapproval shall clearly delineate its reasons therefor. If Landlord shall fail to approve or disapprove Tenant’s Additional Work Plans on a TAW Plan Change within such 10 day period after receiving the Tenant’s Additional Work Plans or a TAW Plan Change Notice, then the Tenant’s Additional Work Plans or the TAW Plan Change shall be deemed disapproved by Landlord. Tenant, at any time, shall have the right to make revisions to, and resubmit to Landlord Tenant’s Additional Work Plans or TAW Plan Change which Landlord shall have previously disapproved pursuant to this Section 6.02(a). Upon Landlord’s approval of Tenant’s Additional Work Plans or any TAW Plan Change the same shall be deemed incorporated into, and to constitute a part of, the Tenant’s Additional Work Plans.

(b) Tenant may perform the Tenant’s Additional Work with such general contractor(s), construction manager(s), subcontractors and trade contractors as Tenant selects, subject to Landlord’s approval, which will not be unreasonably withhold, conditioned or delayed. Tenant shall perform the Tenant’s Additional Work in accordance with (i) the Tenant’s Additional Work Plans, (ii) good construction practices, and (iii) all Legal Requirements and all Insurance Requirements.

(c) Commencing on the date hereof and thereafter throughout Landlord’s prosecution of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall be permitted upon the Land and Building and may, simultaneously with Landlord’s prosecution of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Work, prosecute any Tenant’s Additional Work; provided, however, that Tenant’s prosecution of Tenant’s Additional Work simultaneously with Landlord’s prosecution of the Base Building Work and the Tenant’s Work shall not materially interfere with Landlord’s ability to prosecute the Base Building Work or the Tenant’s Work. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the proviso in the preceding sentence, Landlord shall permit Tenant to bring and store on the Premises all equipment, supplies and other property required or appropriate in connection with the Tenant’s Additional Work, and shall allow Tenant to use, at Tenant’s cost, such power to the Premises as exists or is being furnished for Landlord’s construction of the Base Building Work and Tenant’s Work. Any occupancy and activities in the Premises prior to the Commencement Date by or on behalf of Tenant pursuant to this subclause (c) shall be subject to all terms and provisions of the Lease other than the requirement for the payment of Rent, including, without limitation, the provision of evidence of Tenant’s insurance as required by the Lease.

NON DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of _________________, 20__, between ________________, whose mailing address is ______________________ (“Tenant”), ______________, whose mailing address is _____________________ (“Borrower”), and THE NORTHWESTERN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a Wisconsin corporation (“Lender”), whose address for notices is 000 Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Real Estate Investment Department, Reference Loan No. ______________.

RECITALS

A. Tenant is the lessee or successor to the lessee, and Borrower is the lessor or successor to the lessor under a certain lease dated _________________, 20__, (the “Lease”).

B. Lender has made, or will make, a mortgage loan to be secured by a mortgage, deed to secure a debt or deed of trust from Borrower for the benefit of Lender (as it may be amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Lien Instrument”) encumbering the fee title to and/or leasehold interest in the land described in Exhibit A attached hereto and the improvements thereon (collectively, the “Property”), wherein the premises covered by the Lease (the “Demised Premises”) are located.

C. Borrower and Lender have executed, or will execute, an Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents (the “Absolute Assignment”), pursuant to which (i) the Lease is assigned to Lender and (ii) Lender grants a license back to Borrower permitting Borrower to collect all rents, income and other sums payable under the Lease until the revocation by Lender of such license, at which time all rents, income and other sums payable under the Lease are to be paid to Lender.

D. Lender has required the execution of this Agreement by Borrower and Tenant as a condition to Lender making the requested mortgage loan or consenting to the Lease.

E. Tenant acknowledges that, as its consideration for entering into this Agreement, Tenant will benefit by entering into an agreement with Lender concerning Tenant’s relationship with any purchaser or transferee of the Property (including Lender) in the event of foreclosure of

the Lien Instrument or a transfer of the Property by deed in lieu of foreclosure (any such purchaser or transferee and each of their respective successors or assigns is hereinafter referred to as “Successor Landlord”).

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Tenant, Borrower and Lender agree as follows:

1. Tenant and Borrower agree for the benefit of Lender that:

(a)

Tenant shall not pay, and Borrower shall not accept, any rent or additional rent more than one month in advance;

(b)

Except as specifically provided in the Lease, Tenant and Borrower will not enter into any agreement for the cancellation of the Lease or the surrender of the Demised Premises without Lender’s prior written consent;

(c)

Tenant and Borrower will not enter into any agreement amending or modifying the Lease without Lender’s prior written consent, except for amendments or modifications specifically contemplated in the Lease for confirming the lease commencement date, the rent commencement date, the term, the square footage leased, the renewal or extension of the Lease, or the leasing of additional space at the Property;

(d)

Tenant will not terminate the Lease because of a default thereunder by Borrower unless Tenant shall have first given Lender written notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure such default; provided, however, that such opportunity to cure shall not exceed sixty (60) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord;

(e)

Tenant, upon receipt of notice from Lender that it has exercised its rights under the Absolute Assignment and revoked the license granted to Borrower to collect all rents, income and other sums payable under the Lease, shall pay to Lender all rent and other payments then or thereafter due under the Lease, and any such payments to Lender shall be credited against the rent or other obligations due under the Lease as if made to Borrower and Borrower hereby fully releases Tenant of any claims, damages, actions or causes of action that Borrower may have as a result of the payment of any rent made by Tenant to Lender under this paragraph;

(f)

Tenant will not conduct any dry cleaning operations on the Demised Premises using chlorinated solvents nor will Tenant use any chlorinated solvents in the operation of their business on the Demised Premises; and

(g)

Tenant shall pay any and all termination fees due and payable under the Lease directly to Lender to be held in an account satisfactory to Lender.

2. The Lease is hereby subordinated in all respects to the Lien Instrument and to all renewals, modifications and extensions thereof, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement, but Tenant waives, to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so, the provisions of any statute or rule of law now or hereafter in effect that may give or purport to give it any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect the Lease or the obligations of Tenant thereunder by reason of any foreclosure proceeding.

3. Borrower, Tenant and Lender agree that, unless Lender shall otherwise consent in writing, the fee title to, or any leasehold interest in, the Property and the leasehold estate created by the Lease shall not merge but shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of said estates either in Borrower or Tenant or any third party by purchase, assignment or otherwise.

4. If the interests of Borrower in the Property are acquired by a Successor Landlord:

(a)

If Tenant shall not then be in default in the payment of rent or other sums due under the Lease or be otherwise in material default under the Lease, the Lease shall not terminate or be terminated and the rights of Tenant thereunder shall continue in full force and effect except as provided in this Agreement;

(b)

Tenant agrees to attorn to Successor Landlord as its lessor; Tenant shall be bound under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof, including any renewal options which are exercised in accordance with the terms of the Lease;

(c)

The interests so acquired shall not merge with any other interests of Successor Landlord in the Property if such merger would result in the termination of the Lease;

(d)

If, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the acquisition by Successor Landlord of the interests of Borrower in the Property results, in whole or part, in the termination of the Lease, there shall be deemed to have been created a lease between Successor Landlord and Tenant on the same terms and conditions as the Lease, except as modified by this Agreement, for the remainder of the term of the Lease with renewal options, if any; and

(e)

Successor Landlord shall be bound to Tenant under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, and Tenant shall, from and after Successor Landlord’s acquisition of the interests of Borrower in the real estate, have the same remedies against Successor Landlord for the breach of the Lease that Tenant would have had under the Lease against Borrower if the Successor Landlord had not succeeded to the interests of Borrower; provided, however, that Successor Landlord shall not be:

(i)

Liable for the breach of any representations or warranties set forth in the Lease or for any act, omission or obligation of any landlord (including Borrower) or any other party occurring or accruing prior to the date of Successor Landlord’s acquisition of the interests of Borrower in the Demised Premises, except for any repair and maintenance obligations of a continuing nature as of the date of such acquisition;

(ii)

Liable for any obligation to construct any improvements in, or make any alterations to, the Demised Premises, or to reimburse Tenant by way of allowance or otherwise for any such improvements or alterations constructed or made, or to be constructed or made, by or on behalf of Tenant in the Demised Premises;

(iii)

Subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any landlord (including Borrower) prior to the date of Successor Landlord’s acquisition of the interests of Borrower in the Demised Premises;

(iv)

Liable for the return of any security deposit under the Lease unless such security deposit shall have been actually deposited with Successor Landlord;

(v)

Bound to Tenant subsequent to the date upon which Successor Landlord transfers its interest in the Demised Premises to any third party;

(vi)

Liable to Tenant under any indemnification provisions set forth in the Lease; or

(vii)

Liable for any damages in excess of Successor Landlord’s equity in the Property.

The provisions of this paragraph shall be effective and self-operative immediately upon Successor Landlord succeeding to the interests of Borrower without the execution of any other instrument.

5. Tenant represents and warrants that Tenant, all persons and entities owning (directly or indirectly) an ownership interest in Tenant and all guarantors of all or any portion of the Lease: (i) are not, and shall not become, a person or entity with whom Lender is restricted from doing business with under regulations of the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) of the Department of the Treasury (including, but not limited to, those named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons list) or under any statute, executive order (including, but not limited to, the September 24, 2001 Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action; (ii) are not knowingly engaged in, and shall not engage in, any dealings or transaction or be otherwise associated with such persons or entities described in (i) above; and (iii) are not, and shall not become, a person or entity whose activities are regulated by the International Money Laundering Abatement and Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 or the regulations or orders thereunder.

6. This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any other manner except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon

the parties hereto, their respective heirs, successors and assigns, and shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any renewal, extension, increase, or refinance of the indebtedness secured by the Lien Instrument, without further confirmation. Upon recorded satisfaction of the Lien Instrument, this Agreement shall become null and void and be of no further effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

Appraisal Procedures

This Lease provides that a Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent shall be determined by appraisal, and said appraisal shall be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

(1) Within ten (10) days after receipt of a notice to appraise given by either party, Landlord and Tenant shall each select a real estate broker (an “appraiser”) who (A) is licensed in the State of California, and has a SIOR or CCIM designation, (B) has been actively and continuously engaged in the leasing of industrial/office space in the San Bernardino County, California area during the preceding five-year period, (C) has been the primary broker representing either a landlord or a tenant to a lease covering at least 25,000 square feet of industrial/office space during the most recent three-year period, and (D) has not represented Landlord or Tenant during the preceding five-year period. If one of the parties hereto fails to appoint an appraiser within the time period prescribed, then the single appraiser appointed shall be the sole appraiser and shall determine the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent. If two appraisers are appointed, they shall have thirty (30) days from the date the second appraiser is appointed (the “30-Day Appraisal Period”) within which to agree upon the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent. The appraiser(s) shall be advised that the determination of the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent shall be governed by the definitions of same set forth in this Lease and the requirement that each appraiser select the Determination (as between Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination), which, in his/her opinion, more accurately reflects the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent. The Determination selected by the two appraisers as the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant.

(2) If the two appraisers appointed by the parties hereto do not concur in such selection as aforesaid within the 30 day Appraisal Period, then said appraisers shall attempt, within ten (10) days after the expiration of the 30 day Appraisal Period, to select a third appraiser (the “Third Appraiser”). If the first two appraisers are unable to agree on the Third Appraiser within the ten (10) day period prescribed in the immediately preceding sentence, either Landlord or Tenant, by giving ten (10) days notice to the other party hereto, shall request that the presiding judge of the lowest level court of general jurisdiction for the district in which the Building is located select the Third Appraiser. The Third Appraiser, however selected, shall meet the qualifications set forth in subparagraph (1) above, and shall be a person who has not previously acted in any capacity for either Landlord or Tenant.

(3) The Third Appraiser shall subscribe and swear to an oath to fairly and impartially choose the Determination which more accurately reflects the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent, in accordance herewith. The Third Appraiser shall conduct such hearings as he deems appropriate (or such hearings as either Landlord or Tenant shall request). Within fifteen (15) days after the Third Appraiser has been appointed, the Third Appraiser shall select the Determination (as between Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination) which, in his/her opinion, more accurately reflects the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent, and shall notify Landlord, Tenant and each of the initial arbitrators of such selection in writing. With respect to Tenant’s Renewal Option, provided Tenant does not elect to rescind its Tenant’s Renewal Notice as provided in Article 27, the Renewal Term Fair Market Base Rent set forth in the final Determination selected by the Third Appraiser shall be

the final determination of such amounts, which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant.

(4) Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, each party hereto shall pay the fees and expenses of the appraiser selected by such party, and the fees and expenses of the Third Appraiser shall be borne equally by Landlord and Tenant.
