ARTICLE II. PREMISES
SECTION 2.1. LEASED PREMISES. Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases
from Landlord the premises shown in Exhibit A (the "Premises"), containing
approximately the floor area set forth in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions
and known by the suite number identified in Item 1 of the Basic Lease
Provisions. The Premises are located in the building identified in Item 1 of the
Basic Lease Provisions (which together with the underlying real property, is
called the "Building"), and is a portion of the project shown in Exhibit Y (the
"Project"). Tenant understands that the floor area set forth in Item 8 of the
Basic Lease Provisions may include, at Landlord's option, a factor approximating
the total square footage of any common lobby or internal common features of the
Building times the ratio of the actual square footage of the Premises to the
total square footage of the Building. If, upon completion of the space plans for
the Premises, Landlord's architect or space planner determines that the rentable
square footage of the Premises differs from that set forth in the Basic Lease
Provisions, then Landlord shall so notify Tenant and the Basic Rent (as shown in
Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions) shall be promptly adjusted in proportion
to the change in square footage. Within five (5) days following Landlord's
request, the parties shall memorialize the adjustments by executing an amendment
to this Lease prepared by Landlord, provided that the failure or refusal by
either party to execute the amendment shall not affect its validity.
SECTION 2.2. ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES. Tenant acknowledges that neither
Landlord nor any representative of Landlord has made any representation or
warranty with respect to the Premises or the Building or the suitability or
fitness of either for any purpose, including without limitation any
representations or warranties regarding zoning or other land use matters, and
that neither Landlord nor any representative of Landlord has made any
representations or warranties regarding (i) what other tenants or uses may be
permitted or intended in the Building and the Project, or (ii) any exclusivity
of use by Tenant with respect to its permitted use of the Premises as set forth
in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Provisions. Tenant further acknowledges that
neither Landlord nor any representative of Landlord has agreed to undertake any
alterations or additions or construct any improvements to the Premises except as
expressly provided in this Lease. The taking of possession or use of the
Premises by Tenant for any purpose other than construction shall conclusively
establish that the Premises and the Building were in satisfactory condition and
in conformity with the provisions of this Lease in all respects, except for
those matters which Tenant shall have brought to Landlord's attention on a
written punch list. The list shall be limited to any items required to be
accomplished by Landlord under the Work Letter attached as Exhibit X, and shall
be delivered to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the term ("Term") of this
Lease commences as provided in Article III below. If no items are required of
Landlord under the Work Letter, by taking possession of the Premises Tenant
accepts the improvements in their existing condition, and waives any right or
claim against Landlord arising out of the condition of the Premises. Nothing
contained in this Section shall affect the commencement of the Term or the
obligation of Tenant to pay rent. Landlord shall diligently complete all punch
list items of which it is notified as provided above.
SECTION 2.3. BUILDING NAME AND ADDRESS. Tenant shall not utilize any
name selected by Landlord from time to time for the Building and/or the Project
as any part of Tenant's corporate or trade name. Landlord shall have the right
to change the name, address, number or designation of the Building or Project
without liability to Tenant.
ARTICLE III. TERM
SECTION 3.1. GENERAL. The term shall be for the period shown in Item 5
of the Basic Lease Provisions. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2 below,
the Term shall commence ("Commencement Date") on the earlier of (a) the date
upon which all relevant governmental authorities have approved the Tenant
Improvements in accordance with applicable building codes, as evidenced by
written approval thereof in accordance with the building permits issued for the
Tenant Improvements or issuance of a temporary or final certificate of
occupancy for the Premises, or (b) the date Tenant acquires possession or
commences use of the Premises for any purpose other than fixturization of the
Premises (including, without limitation, installation of phone systems) by
Tenant. Within ten (10) days after possession of the Premises is tendered to
Tenant, the parties shall memorialize on a form provided by Landlord the actual
Commencement Date and the expiration date ("Expiration Date") of this Lease.
Tenant's failure to execute that form shall not affect the validity of
Landlord's determination of those dates.
SECTION 3.2. DELAY IN POSSESSION. If Landlord, for any reason
whatsoever, cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before
the Estimated Commencement Date, this Lease shall not be void or voidable nor
shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any resulting loss or damage. However,
Tenant shall not be liable for any rent and the Commencement Date shall not
occur until Landlord delivers possession of the Premises and the Premises are
in fact available for Tenant's occupancy with any Tenant Improvements that have
been approved as per Section 3.1(a) above, except that if Landlord's failure to
so deliver possession on the Estimated Commencement Date is attributable to any
action or inaction by Tenant (including without limitation any Tenant Delay
described in the Work Letter attached to this Lease), then the Commencement
Date shall not be advanced to the date on which possession of the Premises is
tendered to Tenant, and Landlord shall be entitled to full performance by
Tenant (including the payment of rent) from the date Landlord would have been
able to deliver the Premises to Tenant but for Tenant's delay(s).

ARTICLE IV. RENT AND OPERATING EXPENSES
SECTION 4.1. BASIC RENT. From and after the Commencement Date, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord without deduction or offset, Basic Rent for the Premises
in the total amount shown (including subsequent adjustments, if any) in Item 6
of the Basic Lease Provisions. Any rental adjustment shown in Item 6 shall be
deemed to occur on the specified monthly anniversary of the Commencement Date,
whether or not that date occurs at the end of a calendar month. The rent shall
be due and payable in advance commencing on the Commencement Date (as prorated
for any partial month) and continuing thereafter on the first day of each
successive calendar month of the Term. No demand, notice or invoice shall be
required for the payment of Basic Rent. An installment of rent in the amount of
one (1) full month's Basic Rent at the initial rate specified in Item 6 of the
Basic Lease Provisions shall be delivered to Landlord concurrently with Tenant's
execution of this Lease and shall be applied against the Basic Rent first due
hereunder.
SECTION 4.2. OPERATING EXPENSES.
(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, Tenant's Share
of "Operating Expenses", as defined below, incurred by Landlord in the
operation of the Building and Project. The term "Tenant's Share" means that
portion of an Operating Expense determined by multiplying the cost of such item
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the floor area of the Premises and the
denominator of which is the total square footage of the floor area, as of the
date on which the computation is made, to be charged with such Operating
Expense.
(b) Commencing prior to the start of the first full "Expense Recovery
Period" (as defined below) of the Lease, and prior to the start of each full or
partial Expense Recovery Period thereafter, Landlord shall give Tenant a
written estimate of the amount of Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses for the
Expense Recovery Period. Tenant shall pay the estimated amounts to Landlord in
equal monthly installments, in advance, with Basic Rent. If Landlord has not
furnished its written estimate for any Expense Recovery Period by the time set
forth above, Tenant shall continue to pay cost reimbursements at the rates
established for the prior Expense Recovery Period, if any; provided that when
the new estimate is delivered to Tenant, Tenant shall, at the next monthly
payment date, pay any accrued cost reimbursements based upon the new estimate.
For purposes hereof, "Expense Recovery Period" shall mean every twelve month
period during the Term (or portion thereof for the first and last lease years)
commencing July 1 and ending June 30.
(c) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each Expense
Recovery Period, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement showing in
reasonable detail the actual or prorated Operating Expenses incurred by Landlord
during the period, and the parties shall within thirty (30) days thereafter make
any payment or allowance necessary to adjust Tenant's estimated payments, if
any, to the actual Tenant's Share as shown by the annual statement. Any delay or
failure by Landlord in delivering any statement hereunder shall not constitute a
waiver of Landlord's right to require Tenant to pay Tenant's Share of Operating
Expenses pursuant hereto. Any amount due Tenant shall be credited against
installments next coming due under this Section 4.2, and any deficiency shall be
paid by Tenant together with the next installment. If Tenant has not made
estimated payments during the Expense Recovery Period, any amount owing by
Tenant pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be paid to Landlord in accordance
with Article XVI. Should Tenant fail to object in writing to Landlord's
determination of actual Operating Expenses within sixty (60) days following
delivery of Landlord's expense statement, Landlord's determination of actual
Operating Expenses for the applicable Expense Recovery Period shall be
conclusive and binding on the parties and any future claims to the contrary
shall be barred.
(d) Even though the Lease has terminated and the Tenant has vacated
the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Share of
Operating Expenses for the Expense Recovery Period in which the Lease
terminates. Tenant shall upon notice pay the entire increase due over the
estimated expenses paid. Conversely, any overpayment made in the event expenses
decrease shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant.
(e) If, at any time during any Expense Recovery Period, any one or
more of the Operating Expenses are increased to a rate(s) or amount(s) in excess
of the rate(s) or amount(s) used in calculating the estimated expenses for the
year, then the estimate of Tenant's Share of Operating Expenses shall be
increased for the month in which such rate(s) or amount(s) becomes effective and
for all succeeding months by an amount equal to Tenant's Share of the increase.
Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the amount or estimated amount of
the increase, the month in which the increase will become effective, Tenant's
Share thereof and the month for which the payments are due. Tenant shall pay the
increase to Landlord as a part of Tenant's monthly payments of estimated
expenses as provided in paragraph (b) above, commencing with the month in which
effective.
(f) The term "Operating Expenses" shall mean and include all "Project
Costs" (as hereafter defined) and "Property Taxes" (as hereafter defined).
(g) The term "Project Costs" shall include all expenses of operation
and maintenance of the Building and the Project, together with all appurtenant
Common Areas (as defined in Section 6.2), and shall include the following
charges by way of illustration but not limitation: water and sewer charges;
insurance premiums or reasonable premium equivalents should Landlord elect to
self-insure any risk that Landlord is authorized to insure hereunder; license,
permit, and inspection fees; heat; light; power; janitorial services to any
interior Common Areas; air conditioning; supplies; materials; equipment; tools;
the cost of any environmental, insurance, tax or other consultant utilized by
Landlord in connection with the Building and/or Project; establishment of
reasonable reserves for replacements and/or repair of Common Area
improvements, equipment and supplies; costs incurred in connection with
compliance of any laws or changes in laws applicable to the Building or the
Project; the cost of any capital investments (other than tenant
3
7
improvements for specific tenants) to the extent of the amortized amount thereof
over the useful life of such capital investments calculated at a market cost of
funds, all as determined by Landlord, for each such year of useful life during
the Term; costs associated with the procurement and maintenance of an air
conditioning, heating and ventilation service agreement, and procurement and
maintenance of an intrabuilding network cable service agreement for any
intrabuilding network cable telecommunications lines within the Project, and any
other installation, maintenance, repair and replacement costs associated with
such lines; labor; reasonably allocated wages and salaries, fringe benefits, and
payroll taxes for administrative and other personnel directly applicable to the
Building and/or Project, including both Landlord's personnel and outside
personnel; any expense incurred pursuant to Sections 6.1, 6.2, 6.4, 7.2, and
10.2; and a reasonable overhead/management fee for the professional operation of
the Project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant's Share of
any such property management fees shall be determined by multiplying the actual
property management fee charged (which from time to time may be with respect to
the Building only, a portion of the Project only, the entire Project, or the
Project together with other properties owned by Landlord and/or its affiliates)
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the floor area of the Premises (as set
forth in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions contained in the Lease), and the
denominator of which is the total square footage of space charged with such
management fee actually leased to tenants (including Tenant). It is understood
that Project Costs shall include competitive charges for direct services
provided by any subsidiary or division of Landlord.
(h) The term "Property Taxes" as used herein shall include the
following: (i) all real estate taxes or personal property taxes, as such
property taxes may be reassessed from time to time; and (ii) other taxes,
charges and assessments which are levied with respect to this Lease or to the
Building and/or Project, and any improvements, fixtures and equipment and other
property of Landlord located in the Building and/or the Project, except that
general net income and franchise taxes imposed against Landlord shall be
excluded; and (iii) all assessments and fees for public improvements, services,
and facilities and impacts thereon, including without limitation arising out of
any Community Facilities Districts, "Xxxxx Xxxx" districts, similar assessment
districts, and any traffic impact mitigation assessments or fees; (iv) any tax,
surcharge or assessment which shall be levied in addition to or in lieu of real
estate or personal property taxes, other than taxes covered by Article VIII; and
(v) costs and expenses incurred in contesting the amount or validity of any
Property Tax by appropriate proceedings.
SECTION 4.3. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Concurrently with Tenant's delivery of
this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum, if any, stated in Item 9
of the Basic Lease Provisions, to be held by Landlord as security for the full
and faithful performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease (the "Security
Deposit"). Subject to the last sentence of this Section, the Security Deposit
shall be understood and agreed to be the property of Landlord upon Landlord's
receipt thereof, and may be utilized by Landlord in its discretion towards the
payment of all prepaid expenses by Landlord for which Tenant would be required
to reimburse Landlord under this Lease, including without limitation brokerage
commissions and Tenant improvement costs. Upon any default by Tenant, including
specifically Tenant's failure to pay rent or to abide by its obligations under
Sections 7.1 and 15.3 below, whether or not Landlord is informed of or has
knowledge of the default, the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be
automatically and immediately applied, without waiver of any rights Landlord may
have under this Lease or at law or in equity as a result of the default, as a
setoff for full or partial compensation for that default. If any portion of the
Security Deposit is applied after a default by Tenant, Tenant shall within five
(5) days after written demand by Landlord deposit cash with Landlord in an
amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount.
Landlord shall not be required to keep this Security Deposit separate from its
general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on the Security
Deposit. If Tenant fully performs its obligations under this Lease, the Security
Deposit shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord's option, to the last
assignee of Tenant's interest in this Lease) after the expiration of the Term,
provided that Landlord may retain the Security Deposit to the extent and until
such time as all amounts due from Tenant in accordance with this Lease have been
determined and paid in full.
ARTICLE V. USES
SECTION 5.1. USE. Tenant shall use the Premises only for the purposes
stated in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Provisions, all in accordance with
applicable laws and restrictions and pursuant to approvals to be obtained by
Tenant from all relevant and required governmental agencies and authorities. The
parties agree that any contrary use shall be deemed to cause material and
irreparable harm to Landlord and shall entitle Landlord to injunctive relief in
addition to any other available remedy. Tenant, at its expense, shall procure,
maintain and make available for Landlord's inspection throughout the Term, all
governmental approvals, licenses and permits required for the proper and lawful
conduct of Tenant's permitted use of the Premises. Tenant shall not do or permit
anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way interfere
with the rights of other occupants of the Building or the Project, or use or
allow the Premises to be used for any unlawful purpose, nor shall Tenant permit
any nuisance or commit any waste in the Premises or the Project. Tenant shall
not perform any work or conduct any business whatsoever in the Project other
than inside the Premises. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything
which will invalidate or increase the cost of any insurance policy(ies) covering
the Building, the Project and/or their contents, and shall comply with all
applicable insurance underwriters rules and the requirements of the Pacific Fire
Rating Bureau or any other organization performing a similar function. Tenant
shall comply at its expense with all present and future laws, ordinances,
restrictions, regulations, orders, rules and requirements of all governmental
authorities that pertain to Tenant or its use of the Premises, including without
limitation all federal and state occupational health and safety requirements,
whether or not Tenant's compliance will necessitate expenditures or interfere
with its use and enjoyment of the Premises. Tenant shall comply at its expense
with all present and future covenants, conditions, easements or restrictions now
or hereafter affecting or encumbering the Building and/or Project, and any
amendments or modifications thereto, including without limitation the payment by
Tenant of any periodic or special dues or assessments charged against the
Premises or Tenant which may be allocated
4
8
to the Premises or Tenant in accordance with the provisions thereof. Tenant
shall promptly upon demand reimburse Landlord for any additional insurance
premium charged by reason of Tenant's failure to comply with the provisions of
this Section, and shall indemnify Landlord from any liability and/or expense
resulting from Tenant's noncompliance.
SECTION 5.2 SIGNS. Except as approved in writing by Landlord, in its sole
discretion, Tenant shall have no right to maintain identification signs in any
location in, on or about the Premises, the Building or the Project and shall not
place or erect any signs, displays or other advertising materials that are
visible from the exterior of the Building. The size, design, graphics, material,
style, color and other physical aspects of any permitted sign shall be subject
to Landlord's written approval prior to installation (which approval may be
withheld in Landlord's discretion), any covenants, conditions or restrictions
encumbering the Premises, Landlord's signage program for the Project, as in
effect from time to time and approved by the City in which the Premises are
located ("Signage Criteria"), and any applicable municipal or other governmental
permits and approvals. Tenant acknowledges having received and reviewed a copy
of the current Signage Criteria for the Project. Tenant shall be responsible for
the cost of any permitted sign, including the fabrication, installation,
maintenance and removal thereof. If Tenant fails to maintain its sign, or if
Tenant fails to remove same upon termination of this Lease and repair any damage
caused by such removal, Landlord may do so at Tenant's expense.
SECTION 5.3 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS.
(a) For purposes of this Lease, the term "Hazardous Materials"
includes (i) any "hazardous materials" as defined in Section 25501(n) of the
California Health and Safety Code, (ii) any other substance or matter which
results in liability to any person or entity from exposure to such substance or
matter under any statutory or common law theory, and (iii) any substance or
matter which is in excess of permitted levels set forth in any federal,
California or local law or regulation pertaining to any hazardous or toxic
substance, material or waste.
(b) Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be
brought upon, stored, used, generated, released or disposed of on, under, from
or about the Premises (including without limitation the soil and groundwater
thereunder) without the prior written consent of Landlord. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Tenant shall have the right, without obtaining prior written consent
of Landlord, to utilize within the Premises standard office products that may
contain Hazardous Materials (such as photocopy toner, "White Out", and the
like), provided however, that (i) Tenant shall maintain such products in their
original retail packaging, shall follow all instructions on such packaging with
respect to the storage, use and disposal of such products, and shall otherwise
comply with all applicable laws with respect to such products, and (ii) all of
the other terms and provisions of this Section 5.3 shall apply with respect to
Tenant's storage, use and disposal of all such products. Landlord may, in its
sole discretion, place such conditions as Landlord deems appropriate with
respect to any such Hazardous Materials, and may further require that Tenant
demonstrate that any such Hazardous Materials are necessary or useful to
Tenant's business and will be generated, stored, used and disposed of in a
manner that complies with all applicable laws and regulations pertaining thereto
and with good business practices. Tenant understands that Landlord may utilize
an environmental consultant to assist in determining conditions of approval in
connection with the storage, generation, release, disposal or use of Hazardous
Materials by Tenant on or about the Premises, and/or to conduct periodic
inspections of the storage, generation, use, release and/or disposal of such
Hazardous Materials by Tenant on and from the Premises, and Tenant agrees that
any costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith shall be reimbursed by
Tenant to Landlord as additional rent hereunder upon demand.
(c) Prior to the execution of this Lease, Tenant shall complete,
execute and deliver to Landlord an Environmental Questionnaire and Disclosure
Statement (the "Environmental Questionnaire") in the form of Exhibit B attached
hereto. The completed Environmental Questionnaire shall be deemed incorporated
into this Lease for all purposes, and Landlord shall be entitled to rely fully
on the information contained therein. On each anniversary of the Commencement
Date until the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
disclose to Landlord in writing the names and amounts of all Hazardous Materials
which were stored, generated, used, released and/or disposed of on, under or
about the Premises for the twelve-month period prior thereto, and which Tenant
desires to store, generate, use, release and/or dispose of on, under or about
the Premises for the succeeding twelve-month period. In addition, to the extent
that Tenant is permitted to utilize Hazardous Materials upon the Premises,
Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with complete and legible copies of all
the following environmental documents relating thereto: reports filed pursuant
to any self-reporting requirements; permit applications, permits, monitoring
reports, workplace exposure and community exposure warnings or notices and all
other reports, disclosures, plans or documents (even those which may be
characterized as confidential) relating to water discharges, air pollution,
waste generation or disposal, and underground storage tanks for Hazardous
Materials; orders, reports, notices, listings and correspondence (even those
which may be considered confidential) of or concerning the release,
investigation of, compliance, cleanup, remedial and corrective actions, and
abatement of Hazardous Materials; and all complaints, pleadings and other legal
documents filed by or against Tenant related to Tenant's use, handling, storage,
release and/or disposal of Hazardous Materials.
(d) Landlord and its agents shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to inspect, sample, and/or monitor the Premises and/or the soil or
groundwater thereunder at any time to determine whether Tenant is complying with
the terms of this Section 5.3, and in connection therewith Tenant shall provide
Landlord with full access to all relevant facilities, records and personnel. If
Tenant is not in compliance with any of the provisions of this Section 5.3, or
in the event of a release of Hazardous Material on, under or about the Premises
caused or permitted by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, licensees or
invitees, Landlord and its agents shall have the right, but not the obligation,
without limitation upon any of Landlord's other rights and remedies under this
Lease, to immediately enter upon the Premises without notice and to discharge
Tenant's obligations under this Section 5.3 at Tenant's expense, including
without limitation the taking of emergency or long-term remedial action.
Landlord and its agents shall endeavor to minimize interference with Tenant's
business in connection therewith, but shall not be liable for any such
interference. In addition, Landlord, at Tenant's expense, shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to join and participate in any legal proceedings
5
9
or actions initiated in connection with any claims arising out of the storage,
generation, use, release and/or disposal by Tenant or its agents, employees,
contractors, licensees or invitees of Hazardous Materials on, under, from or
about the Premises.
(e) If the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under, from or
about the Premises or the Project caused or permitted by Tenant or its agents,
employees, contractors, licensees or invitees results in (i) injury to any
person, (ii) injury to or any contamination of the Premises or the Project, or
(iii) injury to or contamination of any real or personal property wherever
situated, Tenant, at its expense, shall promptly take all actions necessary to
return the Premises and the Project and any other affected real or personal
property owned by Landlord to the condition existing prior to the introduction
of such Hazardous Materials and to remedy or repair any such injury or
contamination, including without limitation, any cleanup, remediation, removal,
disposal, neutralization or other treatment of any such Hazardous Materials.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior
written consent, take any remedial action in response to the presence of any
Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or the Project or any other
affected real or personal property owned by Landlord or enter into any similar
agreement, consent, decree or other compromise with any governmental agency
with respect to any Hazardous Materials claims; provided however, Landlord's
prior written consent shall not be necessary in the event that the presence of
Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises or the Project or any other
affected real or personal property owned by Landlord (i) imposes an immediate
threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual or (ii) is of such a
nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not possible
to obtain Landlord's consent before taking such action. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless, protect and defend
(with attorneys acceptable to Landlord) Landlord and any successors to all or
any portion of Landlord's interest in the Premises and the Project and any
other real or personal property owned by Landlord from and against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages, diminution in value, judgments, fines, demands,
claims, recoveries, deficiencies, costs and expenses (including without
limitation attorneys' fees, court costs and other professional expenses),
whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, arising directly or indirectly out of the
use, generation, storage, treatment, release, on- or off-site disposal or
transportation of Hazardous Materials on, into, from, under or about the
Premises, the Building and the Project and any other real or personal property
owned by Landlord caused or permitted by Tenant, its agents, employees,
contractors, licensees or invitees, specifically including without limitation
the cost of any required or necessary repair, restoration, cleanup or
detoxification of the Premises, the Building and the Project and any other real
or personal property owned by Landlord, and the preparation of any closure or
other required plans, whether or not such action is required or necessary
during the Term or after the expiration of this Lease. If Landlord at any time
discovers that Tenant or its agents, employees, contractors, licensees or
invitees may have caused or permitted the release of a Hazardous Material on,
under, from or about the Premises or the Project or any other real or personal
property owned by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, immediately
prepare and submit to Landlord a comprehensive plan, subject to Landlord's
approval, specifying the actions to be taken by Tenant to return the Premises
or the Project or any other real or personal property owned by Landlord to the
condition existing prior to the introduction of such Hazardous Materials. Upon
Landlord's approval of such cleanup plan, Tenant shall, at its expense, and
without limitation of any rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease or
at law or in equity, immediately implement such plan and proceed to cleanup
such Hazardous Materials in accordance with all applicable laws and as required
by such plan and this Lease. The provisions of this subsection (e) shall
expressly survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
(f) Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby
acknowledges, certain facts relating to Hazardous Materials at the Project
known by Landlord to exist as of the date of this Lease, as more particularly
described in Exhibit C attached hereto. Tenant shall have no liability or
responsibility with respect to the Hazardous Materials facts described in
Exhibit C, nor with respect to any Hazardous Materials which Tenant proves were
not caused or permitted by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, licensees
or invitees. Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, Tenant agrees to
notify its agents, employees, contractors, licensees, and invitees of any
exposure or potential exposure to Hazardous Materials at the Premises that
Landlord brings to Tenant's attention.
ARTICLE VI. COMMON AREAS; SERVICES
SECTION 6.1. UTILITIES AND SERVICES. Tenant shall be responsible for
and shall pay promptly, directly to the appropriate supplier, all charges for
water, gas, electricity, sewer, heat, light, power, telephone, refuse pickup,
janitorial service, interior landscape maintenance and all other utilities,
materials and services furnished directly to Tenant or the Premises or used by
Tenant in, on or about the Premises during the Term, together with any taxes
thereon. If any utilities or services are not separately metered or assessed to
Tenant, Landlord shall make a reasonable determination of Tenant's
proportionate share of the cost of such utilities and services and Tenant shall
pay such amount to Landlord, as an item of additional rent, within ten (10)
days after receipt of Landlord's statement or invoice therefor. Alternatively,
Landlord may elect to include such cost in the definition of Building Costs in
which event Tenant shall pay Tenant's proportionate share of such costs in the
manner set forth in Section 4.2. Landlord shall not be liable for damages or
otherwise for any failure or interruption of any utility or other service
furnished to the Premises, and no such failure or interruption shall be deemed
an eviction or entitle Tenant to terminate this Lease or withhold or xxxxx any
rent due hereunder. Landlord shall at all reasonable times have free access to
all electrical and mechanical installations of Landlord.
SECTION 6.2. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF COMMON AREAS. During the Term,
Landlord shall operate all Common Areas with the Building and the Project. The
term "Common Areas" shall mean all areas within the exterior boundaries of the
Building and other buildings in the Project which are not held for exclusive use
by persons entitled to occupy space, and all other appurtenant areas and
improvements provided by Landlord for the
6
10
common use of Landlord and tenants and their respective employees and invitees,
including without limitation parking areas and structures, driveways,
sidewalks, landscaped and planted areas, hallways and interior stairwells not
located within the premises of any tenant, common electrical rooms and roof
access entries, common entrances and lobbies, elevators, and restrooms not
located within the premises of any tenant.
SECTION 6.3. USE OF COMMON AREAS. The occupancy by Tenant of the
Premises shall include the use of the Common Areas in common with Landlord and
with all others for whose convenience and use the Common Areas may be provided
by Landlord, subject, however, to compliance with all rules and regulations as
are prescribed from time to time by Landlord. Landlord shall operate and
maintain the Common Areas in the manner Landlord may determine to be
appropriate. All costs incurred by Landlord for the maintenance and operation
of the Common Areas shall be included in Project Costs unless any particular
cost incurred can be charged to a specific tenant of the Project. Landlord
shall at all times during the Term have exclusive control of the Common Areas,
and may restrain any use or occupancy, except as authorized by Landlord's rules
and regulations. Tenant shall keep the Common Areas clear of any obstruction or
unauthorized use related to Tenant's operations. Nothing in this Lease shall be
deemed to impose liability upon Landlord for any damage to or loss of the
property of, or for any injury to, Tenant, its invitees or employees. Landlord
may temporarily close any portion of the Common Areas for repairs, remodeling
and/or alterations, to prevent a public dedication or the accrual of
prescriptive rights, or for any other reason deemed sufficient by Landlord,
without liability to Landlord.
SECTION 6.4. PARKING. Tenant shall be entitled to the number of vehicle
parking spaces set forth in Item 14 of the Basic Lease Provisions, which spaces
shall be unreserved and unassigned, on those portions of the Common Areas
designated by Landlord for parking. Tenant shall not use more parking spaces
than such number. All parking spaces shall be used only for parking by vehicles
no larger than full size passenger automobiles or pickup trucks. Tenant shall
not permit or allow any vehicles that belong to or are controlled by Tenant or
Tenant's employees, suppliers, shippers, customers or invitees to be loaded,
unloaded or parked in areas other than those designated by Landlord for such
activities. If Tenant permits or allows any of the prohibited activities
described above, then Landlord shall have the right, without notice, in addition
to such other rights and remedies that Landlord may have, to remove or tow away
the vehicle involved and charge the costs to Tenant. Parking within the Common
Areas shall be limited to striped parking stalls, and no parking shall be
permitted in any driveways, access ways or in any area which would prohibit or
impede the free flow of traffic within the Common Areas. There shall be no
overnight parking of any vehicles of any kind unless otherwise authorized by
Landlord, and vehicles which have been abandoned or parked in violation of the
terms hereof may be towed away at the owner's expense. Nothing contained in this
Lease shall be deemed to create liability upon Landlord for any damage to motor
vehicles of visitors or employees, for any loss of property from within those
motor vehicles, or for any injury to Tenant, its visitors or employees, unless
ultimately determined to be caused by the sole active negligence or willful
misconduct of Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to establish, and from
time to time amend, and to enforce against all users all reasonable rules and
regulations (including the designation of areas for employee parking) that
Landlord may deem necessary and advisable for the proper and efficient operation
and maintenance of parking within the Common Areas. Landlord shall have the
right to construct, maintain and operate lighting facilities within the parking
areas, to change the area, level, location and arrangement of the parking areas
and improvements therein; to restrict parking by tenants, their officers, agents
and employees to employee parking areas; to enforce parking charges (by
operation of meters or otherwise); and to do and perform such other acts in and
to the parking areas and improvements therein as, in the use of good business
judgment, Landlord shall determine to be advisable. Any person using the parking
area shall observe all directional signs and arrows and any posted speed limits.
In no event shall Tenant interfere with the use and enjoyment of the parking
area by other tenants of the Building or their employees or invitees. Parking
areas shall be used only for parking vehicles. Washing, waxing, cleaning or
servicing of vehicles, or the storage of vehicles for 24-hour periods, is
prohibited unless otherwise authorized by Landlord. Tenant shall be liable for
any damage to the parking areas caused by Tenant or Tenant's employees,
suppliers, shippers, customers or invitees, including without limitation damage
from excess oil leakage. Tenant shall have no right to install any fixtures,
equipment or personal property in the parking areas.
SECTION 6.5. CHANGES AND ADDITIONS BY LANDLORD. Landlord reserves the
right to make alterations or additions to the Building or the Project, or to
the attendant fixtures, equipment and Common Areas. Landlord may at any time
relocate or remove any of the various buildings, parking areas, and other
Common Areas, and may add buildings and areas to the Project from time to time.
No change shall entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent or other claim against
Landlord, provided that the change does not deprive Tenant of reasonable access
to or use of the Premises.
ARTICLE VII. MAINTAINING THE PREMISES
SECTION 7.1. TENANT'S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Tenant at its sole expense
shall comply with all applicable laws and governmental regulations governing
the Premises and make all repairs necessary to keep the Premises in the
condition as existed on the Commencement Date (or on any later date that the
improvements may have been installed), excepting ordinary wear and tear,
including without limitation all glass, windows, doors, door closures,
hardware, fixtures, electrical, plumbing, fire extinguisher equipment and other
equipment. Any damages or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed
ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good
maintenance practices by Tenant. As part of its maintenance obligations
hereunder, Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, provide Landlord with copies of
all maintenance schedules, reports and notices prepared by, for or on behalf of
Tenant. All repairs shall be at least equal in quality to the original work,
shall be made only by a licensed contractor approved in writing in advance by
Landlord and shall be made only at the time or times approved by Landlord. Any
contractor
7
11
utilized by Tenant shall be subject to Landlord's standard requirements for
contractors, as modified from time to time. Landlord may impose reasonable
restrictions and requirements with respect to repairs, as provided in Section
7.3, and the provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply to all repairs.
Alternatively, Landlord may elect to make any such repair on behalf of Tenant
and at Tenant's expense, and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all
costs incurred upon submission of an invoice.
SECTION 7.2. LANDLORD'S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR. Subject to Section 7.1
and Article XI, Landlord shall provide service, maintenance and repair with
respect to any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which
serves the Premises and shall maintain in good repair the roof, foundations,
footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building, and the
structural, electrical and mechanical systems, except that Tenant at its
expense shall make all repairs which Landlord deems reasonably necessary as a
result of the act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees,
subtenants or contractors. Landlord shall have the right to employ or designate
any reputable person or firm, including any employee or agent of Landlord or
any of Landlord's affiliates or divisions, to perform any service, repair or
maintenance function. Landlord need not make any other improvements or repairs
except as specifically required under this Lease, and nothing contained in this
Section shall limit Landlord's right to reimbursement from Tenant for
maintenance, repair costs and replacement costs as provided elsewhere in this
Lease. Tenant understands that it shall not make repairs at Landlord's expense
or by rental offset. Tenant further understands that Landlord shall not be
required to make any repairs to the roof, foundations, footings, structural,
electrical or mechanical systems unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord
in writing of the need for such repair and Landlord shall have a reasonable
period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repair, if warranted.
All costs of any maintenance and repairs on the part of Landlord provided
hereunder shall be considered part of Project Costs.
SECTION 7.3. ALTERATIONS. Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or
improvements to the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord,
which consent may be given or withheld in Landlord's sole discretion.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its
consent to any alterations, additions or improvements to the Premises which
cost less than One Dollar ($1.00) per square foot of the improved portions of
the Premises (excluding warehouse square footage) and do not (i) affect the
exterior of the Building or outside areas (or be visible from adjoining sites),
or (ii) affect or penetrate any of the structural portions of the Building,
including but not limited to the roof, or (iii) require any change to the basic
floor plan of the Premises, any change to any structural or mechanical systems
of the Premises, or any governmental permit as a prerequisite to the
construction thereof, or (iv) interfere in any manner with the proper
functioning of or Landlord's access to any mechanical, electrical, plumbing or
HVAC systems, facilities or equipment located in or serving the Building, or
(v) diminish the value of the Premises. Landlord may impose, as a condition to
its consent, any requirements that Landlord in its discretion may deem
reasonable or desirable, including but not limited to a requirement that all
work be covered by a lien and completion bond satisfactory to Landlord and
requirements as to the manner, time, and contractor for performance of the
work. Tenant shall obtain all required permits for the work and shall perform
the work in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances,
all covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project, and the Rules
and Regulations (hereafter defined). Tenant understands and agrees that
Landlord shall be entitled to a supervision fee in the amount of five percent
(5%) of the cost of the work. If any governmental entity requires, as a
condition to any proposed alterations, additions or improvements to the
Premises by Tenant, that improvements be made to the Common Areas, and if
Landlord consents to such improvements to the Common Areas, then Tenant shall,
at Tenant's sole expense, make such required improvements to the Common Areas
in such manner, utilizing such materials, and with such contractors (including,
if required by Landlord, Landlord's contractors) as Landlord may require in its
sole discretion. Under no circumstances shall Tenant make any improvement which
incorporates any Hazardous Materials, including without limitation
asbestos-containing construction materials into the Premises. Any request for
Landlord's consent shall be made in writing and shall contain architectural
plans describing the work in detail reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Unless
Landlord otherwise agrees in writing, all alterations, additions or
improvements affixed to the Premises (excluding moveable trade fixtures and
furniture) shall become the property of Landlord and shall be surrendered with
the Premises at the end of the Term, except that Landlord may, by notice to
Tenant, require Tenant to remove by the Expiration Date, or sooner termination
date of this Lease, all or any alterations, decorations, fixtures, additions,
improvements and the like installed either by Tenant or by Landlord at Tenant's
request and to repair any damage to the Premises arising from that removal.
Except as otherwise provided in this Lease or in any Exhibit to this Lease,
should Landlord make any alteration or improvement to the Premises for Tenant,
Landlord shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement from Tenant for all costs
incurred.
SECTION 7.4. MECHANIC'S LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from
any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished, or
obligations incurred by or for Tenant. Upon request by Landlord, Tenant shall
promptly cause any such lien to be released by posting a bond in accordance
with California Civil Code Section 3143 or any successor statute. In the event
that Tenant shall not, within thirty (30) days following the imposition of any
lien, cause the lien to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper
bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other available remedies, the
right to cause the lien to be released by any means it deems proper, including
payment of or defense against the claim giving rise to the lien. All expenses
so incurred by Landlord, including Landlord's attorneys' fees, and any
consequential or other damages incurred by Landlord arising out of such lien,
shall be reimbursed by Tenant promptly following Landlord's demand, together
with interest from the date of payment by Landlord at the maximum rate
permitted by law until paid. Tenant shall give Landlord no less than twenty
(20) days' prior notice in writing before commencing construction of any kind
on the Premises so that Landlord may post and maintain notices of
nonresponsibility on the Premises.
SECTION 7.5. ENTRY AND INSPECTION. Landlord shall at all reasonable
times, upon written or oral notice (except in emergencies, when no notice shall
be required) have the right to enter the Premises to inspect them, to supply
services in accordance with this Lease, to protect the interests of Landlord in
the Premises, and to submit the
8
12
Premises to prospective or actual purchasers or encumbrance holders (or, during
the last one hundred and eighty (180) days of the Term or when an uncured
Tenant default exists, to prospective tenants), all without being deemed to
have caused an eviction of Tenant and without abatement of rent except as
provided elsewhere in this Lease. Landlord shall have the right, if desired, to
retain a key which unlocks all of the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant's
vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means
which Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in an emergency in order to
obtain entry to the Premises, and any entry to the Premises obtained by
Landlord shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be a forcible or
unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or any eviction of Tenant
from the Premises.
ARTICLE VIII. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS OF TENANT'S PROPERTY
Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, at least ten (10) days before
delinquency, all taxes and assessments levied against all personal property of
Tenant located in the Premises, against all improvements to the Premises made
by Landlord or Tenant which are above Landlord's Project standard in quality
and/or quantity for comparable space within the Project ("Above Standard
Improvements"), and against any alterations, additions or like improvements
made to the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant. When possible Tenant shall
cause its personal property, Above Standard Improvements and alterations to be
assessed and billed separately from the real property of which the Premises
form a part. If any taxes on Tenant's personal property, Above Standard
Improvements and/or alterations are levied against Landlord or Landlord's
property and if Landlord pays the same, or if the assessed value of Landlord's
property is increased by the inclusion of a value placed upon the personal
property, Above Standard Improvements and/or alterations of Tenant and if
Landlord pays the taxes based upon the increased assessment, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of the taxes
resulting from the increase in the assessment. In calculating what portion of
any tax xxxx which is assessed against Landlord separately, or Landlord and
Tenant jointly, is attributable to Tenant's Above Standard Improvements,
alterations and personal property, Landlord's reasonable determination shall be
conclusive.
ARTICLE IX. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
SECTION 9.1. RIGHTS OF PARTIES.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary,
Tenant will not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, sublet,
encumber, or otherwise transfer all or any part of Tenant's interest in this
lease, or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant,
without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not unreasonably
be withheld in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1(b). No assignment
(whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) and no subletting shall
be valid or effective without Landlord's prior written consent and, at
Landlord's election, any such assignment or subletting or attempted assignment
or subletting shall constitute a material default of this Lease. Landlord shall
not be deemed to have given its consent to any assignment or subletting by any
other course of action, including its acceptance of any name for listing in the
Building directory. To the extent not prohibited by provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"),
including Section 365(f)(1), Tenant on behalf of itself and its creditors,
administrators and assigns waives the applicability of Section 365(e) of the
Bankruptcy Code unless the proposed assignee of the Trustee for the estate of
the bankrupt meets Landlord's standard for consent as set forth in Section
9.1(b) of this Lease. If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity
pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all monies or other
considerations to be delivered in connection with the assignment shall be
delivered to Landlord, shall be and remain the exclusive property of Landlord
and shall not constitute property of Tenant or of the estate of Tenant within
the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code. Any person or entity to which this Lease is
assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed to
have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease on and after the
date of the assignment, and shall upon demand execute and deliver to Landlord
an instrument confirming that assumption.
(b) If Tenant desires to transfer an interest in this Lease, it shall
first notify Landlord of its desire and shall submit in writing to Landlord:
(i) the name and address of the proposed transferee; (ii) the nature of any
proposed subtenant's or assignee's business to be carried on in the Premises;
(iii) the terms and provisions of any proposed sublease or assignment,
including a copy of the proposed assignment or sublease form; (iv) evidence of
insurance of the proposed assignee or subtenant complying with the requirements
of Exhibit D hereto; (v) a completed Environmental Questionnaire from the
proposed assignee or subtenant; and (vi) any other information requested by
Landlord and reasonably related to the transfer. Except as provided in
Subsection (c) of this Section, Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold its
consent, provided: (1) the use of the Premises will be consistent with the
provisions of this Lease and with Landlord's commitment to other tenants of the
Building and Project; (2) the proposed assignee or subtenant has not been
required by any prior landlord, lender or governmental authority to take
remedial action in connection with Hazardous Materials contaminating a property
arising out of the proposed assignee's or subtenant's actions or use of the
property in question and is not subject to any enforcement order issued by any
governmental authority in connection with the use, disposal or storage of a
Hazardous Material; (3) at Landlord's election, insurance requirements shall be
brought into conformity with Landlord's then current leasing practices; (4) any
proposed subtenant or assignee demonstrates that it is financially responsible
by submission to Landlord of all reasonable information as Landlord may request
concerning the proposed subtenant or assignee, including, but not limited to,
a balance sheet of the proposed subtenant or assignee as of a date within ninety
(90) days of the request for Landlord's consent, statements of income or profit
and loss of the proposed subtenant or assignee for the two-year period
preceding the request for Landlord's consent, and/or a certification signed
9
13
by the proposed subtenant or assignee that it has not been evicted or been in
arrears in rent at any other leased premises for the 3-year period preceding
the request for Landlord's consent; (5) any proposed subtenant or assignee
demonstrates to Landlord's reasonable satisfaction a record of successful
experience in business; (6) the proposed assignee or subtenant is not an
existing tenant of the Building or Project or a prospect with whom Landlord is
negotiating to become a tenant at the Building or Project; and (7) the proposed
transfer will not impose additional burdens or adverse tax effects on Landlord.
If Tenant has any exterior sign rights under this Lease, such rights are
personal to Tenant and may not be assigned or transferred to any assignee of
this Lease or subtenant of the Premises without Landlord's prior written
consent, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion.
If Landlord consents to the proposed transfer, Tenant may within
ninety (90) days after the date of the consent effect the transfer upon the
terms described in the information furnished to Landlord; provided that any
material change in the terms shall be subject to Landlord's consent as set
forth in this Section. Landlord shall approve or disapprove any requested
transfer within thirty (30) days following receipt of Tenant's written request,
the information set forth above, and the fee set forth below.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (b) above, in lieu
of consenting to a proposed assignment or subletting, Landlord may elect to (i)
sublease the Premises (or the portion proposed to be subleased), or take an
assignment of Tenant's interest in this Lease, upon the same terms as offered
to the proposed subtenant or assignee (excluding terms relating to the purchase
of personal property, the use of Tenant's name or the continuation of Tenant's
business), or (ii) terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises
proposed to be subleased or assigned with a proportionate abatement in the rent
payable under this Lease, effective on the date that the proposed sublease or
assignment would have become effective. Landlord may thereafter, at its option,
assign or re-let any space so recaptured to any third party, including without
limitation the proposed transferee of Tenant.
(d) Tenant agrees that fifty percent (50%) of any amounts paid by
the assignee or subtenant, however described, in excess of (i) the Basic Rent
payable by Tenant hereunder, or in the case of a sublease of a portion of the
Premises, in excess of the Basic Rent reasonably allocable to such portion,
plus (ii) Tenant's direct out-of-pocket costs which Tenant certifies to
Landlord have been paid to provide occupancy related services to such assignee
or subtenant of a nature commonly provided by landlords of similar space, shall
be the property of Landlord and such amounts shall be payable directly to
Landlord by the assignee or subtenant or, at Landlord's option, by Tenant. At
Landlord's request, a written agreement shall be entered into by and among
Tenant, Landlord and the proposed assignee or subtenant confirming the
requirements of this subsection.
(e) Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee of Five Hundred Dollars
($500.00) if and when any transfer hereunder is requested by Tenant. Such fee is
hereby acknowledged as a reasonable amount to reimburse Landlord for its costs
of review and evaluation of a proposed assignee/subleasee, and Landlord shall
not be obligated to commence such review and evaluation unless and until such
fee is paid.
SECTION 9.2. EFFECT OF TRANSFER. No subletting or assignment, even with
the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay rent and
to perform all its other obligations under this Lease. Moreover, Tenant shall
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless, as provided in Section 10.3, for any act
or omission by an assignee or subtenant. Each assignee, other than Landlord,
shall be deemed to assume all obligations of Tenant under this Lease and shall
be liable jointly and severally with Tenant for the payment of all rent, and
for the due performance of all of Tenant's obligations, under this Lease. No
transfer shall be binding on Landlord unless any document memorializing the
transfer is delivered to Landlord and both the assignee/subtenant and Tenant
deliver to Landlord an executed consent to transfer instrument prepared by
Landlord and consistent with the requirements of this Article. The acceptance
by Landlord of any payment due under this Lease from any other person shall not
be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a
consent to any transfer. Consent by Landlord to one or more transfers shall not
operate as a waiver or estoppel to the future enforcement by Landlord of its
rights under this Lease.
SECTION 9.3. SUBLEASE REQUIREMENTS. The following terms and conditions
shall apply to any subletting by Tenant of all or any part of the Premises and
shall be deemed included in each sublease:
(a) Each and every provision contained in this Lease (other than
with respect to the payment of rent hereunder) is incorporated by reference
into and made a part of such sublease, with "Landlord" hereunder meaning the
sublandlord therein and "Tenant" hereunder meaning the subtenant therein.
(b) Tenant hereby irrevocably assigns to Landlord all of Tenant's
interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease of the Premises,
and Landlord may collect such rent and income and apply same toward Tenant's
obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until a default occurs in
the performance of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, Tenant shall have the
right to receive and collect the sublease rentals. Landlord shall not, by
reason of this assignment or the collection of sublease rentals, be deemed
liable to the subtenant for the performance of any of Tenant's obligations
under this sublease. Tenant hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any
subtenant, upon receipt of a written notice from Landlord stating that an
uncured default exists in the performance of Tenant's obligations under this
Lease, to pay to Landlord all sums then and thereafter due under the sublease.
Tenant agrees that the subtenant may rely on that notice without any duty of
further inquiry and notwithstanding any notice or claim by Tenant to the
contrary. Tenant shall have no right or claim against the subtenant or Landlord
for any rentals so paid to Landlord.
(c) In the event of the termination of this Lease, Landlord may, at
its sole option, take over Tenant's entire interest in any sublease and, upon
notices from Landlord, the subtenant shall attorn to Landlord. In no event,
however, shall Landlord be liable for any previous act or omission by Tenant
under the sublease or for the return of any advance
10
14
rental payments or deposits under the sublease that have not been actually
delivered to Landlord, nor shall Landlord be bound by any sublease modification
executed without Landlord's consent or for any advance rental payment by the
subtenant in excess of one month's rent. The general provisions of this Lease,
including without limitation those pertaining to insurance and indemnification
shall be deemed incorporated by reference into the sublease despite the
termination of this Lease.
SECTION 9.4. CERTAIN TRANSFERS. The sale of all or substantially all of
Tenant's assets (other than bulk sales in the ordinary course of business) or,
if Tenant is a corporation, an unincorporated association, or a partnership, the
transfer, assignment or hypothecation of any stock or interest in such
corporation, association, or partnership in the aggregate of twenty-five percent
(25%) (except for publicly traded shares of stock constituting a transfer of
twenty-five percent (25%) or more in the aggregate, so long as no change in the
controlling interest of Tenant occurs as a result thereof) shall be deemed an
assignment within the meaning and provisions of this Article. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Landlord's consent shall not be required for the assignment of
this Lease as a result of a merger by Tenant with or into another entity, so
long as (i) the net worth of the successor entity after such merger is at least
equal to the greater of the net worth of Tenant as of the execution of this
Lease by Landlord or the net worth of Tenant immediately prior to the date of
such merger, evidence of which, satisfactory to Landlord, shall be presented to
Landlord prior to such merger, (ii) Tenant shall provide to Landlord, prior to
such merger, written notice of such merger and such assignment documentation and
other information as Landlord may request in connection therewith, and (iii) all
of the other terms and requirements of this Article shall apply with respect to
such assignment.
ARTICLE X. INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY
SECTION 10.1. TENANT'S INSURANCE. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense,
shall provide and maintain in effect the insurance described in Exhibit D.
Evidence of that insurance must be delivered to Landlord prior to the
Commencement Date.
SECTION 10.2. LANDLORD'S INSURANCE. Landlord may, at its election,
provide any or all of the following types of insurance, with or without
deductible and in amounts and coverages as may be determined by Landlord in its
discretion: "all risk" property insurance, subject to standard exclusions,
covering the Building or Project, and such other risks as Landlord or its
mortgagees may from time to time deem appropriate, including leasehold
improvements made by Landlord, and commercial general liability coverage.
Landlord shall not be required to carry insurance of any kind on Tenant's
property, including leasehold improvements, trade fixtures, furnishings,
equipment, plate glass, signs and all other items of personal property, and
shall not be obligated to repair or replace that property should damage occur.
All proceeds of insurance maintained by Landlord upon the Building and Project
shall be the property of Landlord, whether or not Landlord is obligated to or
elects to make any repairs. At Landlord's option, Landlord may self-insure all
or any portion of the risks for which Landlord elects to provide insurance
hereunder.
SECTION 10.3. TENANT'S INDEMNITY. To the fullest extent permitted by
law, Tenant shall defend, indemnify, protect, save and hold harmless Landlord,
its agents, and any and all affiliates of Landlord, including, without
limitation, any corporations or other entities controlling, controlled by or
under common control with Landlord, from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, costs or expenses arising either before or after the Commencement
Date from Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, the Building or the Common
Areas, or from the conduct of its business, or from any activity, work, or
thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or its agents, employees, invitees
or licensees in or about the Premises, the Building or the Common Areas, or
from any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant's part to be
performed under this Lease, or from any act or negligence of Tenant or its
agents, employees, visitors, patrons, guests, invitees or licensees. Landlord
may, at its option, require Tenant to assume Landlord's defense in any action
covered by this Section through counsel satisfactory to Landlord. The
provisions of this Section shall expressly survive the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease.
SECTION 10.4. LANDLORD'S NONLIABILITY. Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant, its employees, agents and invitees, and Tenant hereby waives all claims
against Landlord for loss of or damage to any property, or loss or interruption
of business or income, or any other loss, cost, damage, injury or liability
whatsoever (including without limitation any consequential damages and lost
profit or opportunity costs) resulting from, but not limited to, Acts of God,
acts of civil disobedience or insurrection, acts or omissions of other tenants
within the Project or their agents, employees, contractors, guests or invitees,
fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water or rain which
may leak or flow from or into any part of the Premises or from the breakage,
leakage, obstruction or other defects of the pipes, sprinklers, wires,
appliances, plumbing, air conditioning, electrical works or other fixtures in
the Building, whether the damage or injury results from conditions arising in
the Premises or in other portions of the Building. It is understood that any
such condition may require the temporary evacuation or closure of all or a
portion of the Building. Except as provided in Sections 11.1 and 12.1 below,
there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of
any injury to or interference with Tenant's business (including without
limitation consequential damages and lost profit or opportunity costs) arising
from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements to any portion of
the Building, including repairs to the Premises, nor shall any related activity
by Landlord constitute an actual or constructive eviction; provided, however,
that in making repairs, alterations or improvements, Landlord shall interfere
as little as reasonably practicable with the conduct of Tenant's business in
the Premises. Neither Landlord nor its agents shall be liable for interference
with light or other similar intangible interests. Tenant shall immediately
notify Landlord in case of fire or accident in the Premises, the Building or
the Project and of defects in any improvements or equipment.
11
15
SECTION 10.5. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Landlord and Tenant each hereby
waives all rights of recovery against the other and the other's agents on
account of loss and damage occasioned to the property of such waiving party to
the extent only that such loss or damage is required to be insured against
under any "all risk" property insurance policies required by this Article X;
provided however, that (i) the foregoing waiver shall not apply to the extent
of Tenant's obligations to pay deductibles under any such policies and this
Lease, and (ii) if any loss is due to the act, omission or negligence or
willful misconduct of Tenant or its agents, employees, contractors, guests or
invitees, Tenant's liability insurance shall be primary and shall cover all
losses and damages prior to any other insurance hereunder. By this waiver it is
the intent of the parties that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable to
any insurance company (by way of subrogation or otherwise) insuring the other
party for any loss or damage insured against under any "all-risk" property
insurance policies required by this Article, even though such loss or damage
might be occasioned by the negligence of such party, its agents, employees,
contractors, guests or invitees. The provisions of this Section shall not limit
the indemnification provisions elsewhere contained in this Lease.
ARTICLE XI. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
SECTION 11.1. RESTORATION.
(a) If the Building of which the Premises are a part is damaged,
Landlord shall repair that damage as soon as reasonably possible, at its
expense, unless: (i) Landlord reasonably determines that the cost of repair is
not covered by Landlord's fire and extended coverage insurance plus such
additional amounts Tenant elects, at its option, to contribute, excluding
however the deductible (for which Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant's
Share); (ii) Landlord reasonably determines that the Premises cannot, with
reasonable diligence, be fully repaired by Landlord (or cannot be safely
repaired because of the presence of hazardous factors, including without
limitation Hazardous Materials, earthquake faults, and other similar dangers)
within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of the damage; (iii) an
event of default by Tenant has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
damage; or (iv) the damage occurs during the final twelve (12) months of the
Term. Should Landlord elect not to repair the damage for one of the preceding
reasons, Landlord shall so notify Tenant in writing within sixty (60) days
after the damage occurs and this Lease shall terminate as of the date of that
notice.
(b) Unless Landlord elects to terminate this Lease in accordance
with subsection (a) above, this Lease shall continue in effect for the
remainder of the Term; provided that so long as Tenant is not in default under
this Lease, if the damage is so extensive that Landlord reasonably determines
that the Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be repaired by Landlord
(or cannot be safely repaired because of the presence of hazardous factors,
earthquake faults, and other similar dangers) so as to allow Tenant's
substantial use and enjoyment of the Premises within two hundred and seventy
(270) days after the date of damage, then Tenant may elect to terminate this
Lease by written notice to Landlord within the sixty (60) day period stated in
subsection (a).
(c) Commencing on the date of any damage to the Building, and ending
on the sooner of the date the damage is repaired or the date this Lease is
terminated, the rental to be paid under this Lease shall be abated in the same
proportion that the floor area of the Premises that is rendered unusable by the
damage from time to time bears to the total floor area of the Premises, but
only to the extent that any business interruption insurance proceeds are
received by Landlord therefor from Tenant's insurance described in Exhibit D.
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a), (b) and (c)
of this Section, and subject to the provisions of Section 10.5 above, the cost
of any repairs shall be borne by Tenant, and Tenant shall not be entitled to
rental abatement or termination rights, if the damage is due to the fault or
neglect of Tenant or its employees, subtenants, invitees or representatives. In
addition, the provisions of this Section shall not be deemed to require
Landlord to repair any improvements or fixtures that Tenant is obligated to
repair or insure pursuant to any other provision of this Lease.
(e) Tenant shall fully cooperate with Landlord in removing Tenant's
personal property and any debris from the Premises to facilitate all
inspections of the Premises and the making of any repairs. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Landlord in good faith
believes there is a risk of injury to persons or damage to property from entry
into the Building or Premises following any damage or destruction thereto,
Landlord may restrict entry into the Building or the Premises by Tenant, its
employees, agents and contractors in a non-discriminatory manner, without being
deemed to have violated Tenant's rights of quiet enjoyment to, or made an
unlawful detainer of, or evicted Tenant from, the Premises. Upon request,
Landlord shall consult with Tenant to determine if there are safe methods of
entry into the Building or the Premises solely in order to allow Tenant to
retrieve files, data in computers, and necessary inventory, subject however to
all indemnities and waivers of liability from Tenant to Landlord contained in
this Lease and any additional indemnities and waivers of liability which
Landlord may required.
SECTION 11.2. LEASE GOVERNS. Tenant agrees that the provisions of this
Lease, including without limitation Section 11.1. shall govern any damage or
destruction and shall accordingly supersede any contrary statute or rule of law.
12
16
ARTICLE XII. EMINENT DOMAIN
SECTION 12.1. TOTAL OR PARTIAL TAKING. If all or a material portion of
the Premises is taken by any lawful authority by exercise of the right of
eminent domain, or sold to prevent a taking, either Tenant or Landlord may
terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be
surrendered to the authority. In the event title to a portion of the Building
or Project, other than the Premises, is taken or sold in lieu of taking, and if
Landlord elects to restore the Building in such a way as to alter the Premises
materially, either party may terminate this Lease, by written notice to the
other party, effective on the date of vesting of title. In the event neither
party has elected to terminate this Lease as provided above, then Landlord
shall promptly, after receipt of a sufficient condemnation award, proceed to
restore the Premises to substantially their condition prior to the taking, and
a proportionate allowance shall be made to Tenant for the rent corresponding to
the time during which, and to the part of the Premises of which, Tenant is
deprived on account of the taking and restoration. In the event of a taking,
Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the condemnation award
without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant; provided that nothing
in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in, or prevent
Tenant from seeking any award against the taking authority for, the taking of
personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant or for relocation or
business interruption expenses recoverable from the taking authority.
SECTION 12.2. TEMPORARY TAKING. No temporary taking of the Premises
shall terminate this Lease or give Tenant any right to abatement of rent, and
any award specifically attributable to a temporary taking of the Premises
shall belong entirely to Tenant. A temporary taking shall be deemed to be a
taking of the use or occupancy of the Premises for a period of not to exceed one
hundred eighty (180) days.
SECTION 12.3. TAKING OF PARKING AREA. In the event there shall be a
taking of the parking area such that Landlord can no longer provide sufficient
parking to comply with this Lease, Landlord may substitute reasonably
equivalent parking in a location reasonably close to the Building; provided
that if Landlord fails to make that substitution within one hundred eighty
(180) days following the taking and if the taking materially impairs Tenant's
use and enjoyment of the Premises, Tenant may, at its option, terminate this
Lease by written notice to Landlord. If this Lease is not so terminated by
Tenant, there shall be no abatement of rent and this Lease shall continue in
effect.
ARTICLE XIII. SUBORDINATION; ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE; FINANCIALS
SECTION 13.1. SUBORDINATION. At the option of Landlord, this Lease shall
be either superior or subordinate to all ground or underlying leases, mortgages
and deeds of trust, if any, which may hereafter affect the Building, and to all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof;
provided, that so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease, this Lease
shall not be terminated or Tenant's quiet enjoyment of the Premises disturbed
in the event of termination of any such ground or underlying lease, or the
foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed of trust, to which Tenant has
subordinated this Lease pursuant to this Section. In the event of a termination
or foreclosure, Tenant shall become a tenant of and attorn to the
successor-in-interest to Landlord upon the same terms and conditions as are
contained in this Lease, and shall execute any instrument reasonably required
by Landlord's successor for that purpose. Tenant shall also, upon written
request of Landlord, execute and deliver all instruments as may be required
from time to time to subordinate the rights of Tenant under this Lease to any
ground or underlying lease or to the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust
(provided that such instruments include the nondisturbance and attornment
provisions set forth above), or, if requested by Landlord, to subordinate, in
whole or in part, any ground or underlying lease or the lien of any mortgage or
deed of trust to this Lease.
SECTION 13.2. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE.
(a) Tenant shall, at any time upon not less than ten (10) days prior
written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord, in
any form that Landlord may reasonably require, a statement in writing (i)
certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if
modified, stating the nature of the modification and certifying that this Lease,
as modified, is in full force and effect) and the dates to which the rental,
additional rent and other charges have been paid in advance, if any, and (ii)
acknowledging that, to Tenant's knowledge, there are no uncured defaults on the
part of Landlord, or specifying each default if any are claimed, and (iii)
setting forth all further information that Landlord may reasonably require.
Tenant's statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or
encumbrancer of all or any portion of the Building or Project.
(b) Notwithstanding any other rights and remedies of Landlord,
Tenant's failure to deliver any estoppel statement within the provided time
shall be conclusive upon Tenant that (i) this Lease is in full force and effect,
without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, (ii) there are
no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, and (iii) not more than one
month's rental has been paid in advance.
SECTION 13.3. FINANCIALS.
(a) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, prior to the execution of this
Lease and thereafter at any time upon Landlord's request, Tenant's current
financial statements, certified true, accurate and complete by the chief
financial officer of Tenant, including balance sheet and profit and loss
statement for the most recent prior year (collectively, the "Statements"),
which Statements shall accurately and completely reflect the financial
condition of Tenant. Landlord
13
17
agrees that it will keep the Statements confidential, except that Landlord
shall have the right to deliver the same to any proposed purchaser of the
Building or Project, and to any encumbrancer of all or any portion of the
Building or Project.
(b) Tenant acknowledges that Landlord is relying on the Statements
in its determination to enter into this Lease, and Tenant represents to
Landlord, which representation shall be deemed made on the date of this Lease
and again on the Commencement Date, that no material change in the financial
condition of Tenant, as reflected in the Statements, has occurred since the
date Tenant delivered the Statements to Landlord. The Statements are
represented and warranted by Tenant to be correct and to accurately and fully
reflect Tenant's true financial condition as of the date of submission by any
Statements to Landlord.
ARTICLE XIV. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES
SECTION 14.1. TENANT'S DEFAULTS. In addition to any other event of
default set forth in this Lease, the occurrence of any one or more of the
following events shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(a) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional
rent required to be made by Tenant, as and when due, where the failure
continues for a period of three (3) days after written notice from Landlord to
Tenant; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in
addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 1161 and 1161(a) as amended. For purposes of these default and remedies
provisions, the term "additional rent" shall be deemed to include all amounts
of any type whatsoever other than Basic Rent to be paid by Tenant pursuant to
the terms of this Lease.
(b) Assignment, sublease, encumbrance or other transfer of the Lease
by Tenant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, whether by judgment,
execution, transfer by intestacy or testacy, or other means, without the prior
written consent of Landlord.
(c) The discovery by Landlord that any financial statement provided
by Tenant, or by any affiliate, successor or guarantor of Tenant, was
materially false.
(d) The failure of Tenant to timely and fully provide any
subordination agreement, estoppel certificate or financial statements in
accordance with the requirements of Article XIII.
(e) The failure or inability by Tenant to observe or perform any of
the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Tenant, other than as specified in any other subsection of this
Section, where the failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after
written notice from Landlord to Tenant or such shorter period as is specified
in any other provision of this Lease; provided, however, that any such notice
shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 and 1161(a) as amended.
However, if the nature of the failure is such that more than thirty (30) days
are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in
default if Tenant commences the cure within thirty (30) days, and thereafter
diligently pursues the cure to completion.
(f) (i) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the
benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to
have Tenant adjudged a Chapter 7 debtor under the Bankruptcy Code or to have
debts discharged or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law
relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant,
the same is dismissed within thirty (30) days); (iii) the appointment of a
trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets
located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, if possession is
not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; (iv) the attachment, execution
or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at
the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where the seizure is not
discharged within thirty (30) days; or (v) Tenant's convening of a meeting of
its creditors for the purpose of effecting a moratorium upon or composition of
its debts. Landlord shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any event
described in this subsection unless notification in writing is received by
Landlord, nor shall there be any presumption attributable to Landlord of
Tenant's insolvency. In the event that any provision of this subsection is
contrary to applicable law, the provision shall be of no force or effect.
SECTION 14.2. LANDLORD'S REMEDIES.
(a) In the event of any default by Tenant, or in the event of the
abandonment of the Premises by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies
available to Landlord, Landlord may exercise the following remedies:
(i) Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to possession of the
Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and
Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. Such
termination shall not affect any accrued obligations of Tenant under this
Lease. Upon termination, Landlord shall have the right to reenter the Premises
and remove all persons and property. Landlord shall also be entitled to recover
from Tenant:
(1) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent and
additional rent which had been earned at the time of termination;
14
18
(2) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent and additional rent which would have been earned after
termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such loss that Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided;
(3) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which
the unpaid rent and additional rent for the balance of the Term after the time
of award exceeds the amount of such loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably
avoided;
(4) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for
all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its
obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result from Tenant's default, including, but not limited to, the cost
of recovering possession of the Premises, refurbishment of the Premises,
marketing costs, commissions and other expenses of reletting, including
necessary repair, the unamortized portion of any tenant improvements and
brokerage commissions funded by Landlord in connection with this Lease,
reasonable attorneys' fees, and any other reasonable costs; and
(5) At Landlord's election, all other amounts in addition
to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted by law. The term "rent" as
used in this Lease shall be deemed to mean the Basic Rent and all other sums
required to be paid by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease.
Any sum, other than Basic Rent, shall be computed on the basis of the average
monthly amount accruing during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately
prior to default, except that if it becomes necessary to compute such rental
before the twenty-four (24) month period has occurred, then the computation
shall be on the basis of the average monthly amount during the shorter period.
As used in subparagraphs (1) and (2) above, the "worth at the time of award"
shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per
annum. As used in subparagraph (3) above, the "worth at the time of award"
shall be computed by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal
Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
(ii) Landlord may elect not to terminate Tenant's right to
possession of the Premises, in which event Landlord may continue to enforce all
of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to collect all
rent as it becomes due. Efforts by the Landlord to maintain, preserve or relet
the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Landlord's
interests under this Lease, shall not constitute a termination of the Tenant's
right to possession of the Premises. In the event that Landlord elects to
avail itself of the remedy provided by this subsection (ii), Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold its consent to an assignment or subletting of the
Premises subject to the reasonable standards for Landlord's consent as are
contained in this Lease.
(b) Landlord shall be under no obligation to observe or perform any
covenant of this Lease on its part to be observed or performed which accrues
after the date of any default by Tenant unless and until the default is cured
by Tenant, it being understood and agreed that the performance by Landlord of
its obligations under this Lease are expressly conditioned upon Tenant's full
and timely performance of its obligation under this Lease. The various rights
and remedies reserved to Landlord in this Lease or otherwise shall be
cumulative and, except as otherwise provided by California law, Landlord may
pursue any or all of its rights and remedies at the same time.
(c) No delay or omission of Landlord to exercise any right or remedy
shall be construed as a waiver of the right or remedy or of any default by
Tenant. The acceptance by Landlord of rent shall not be a (i) waiver of any
preceding breach or default by Tenant of any provision of this Lease, other than
the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rent accepted, regardless of
Landlord's knowledge of the preceding breach or default at the time of
acceptance of rent, or (ii) a waiver of Landlord's right to exercise any remedy
available to Landlord by virtue of the breach or default. The acceptance of any
payment from a debtor in possession, a trustee, a receiver or any other person
acting on behalf of Tenant or Tenant's estate shall not waive or cure a default
under Section 14.1. No payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of a lesser
amount than the rent required by this Lease shall be deemed to be other than a
partial payment on account of the earliest due stipulated rent, nor shall any
endorsement or statement on any check of letter be deemed an accord and
satisfaction and Landlord shall accept the check of payment without prejudice to
Landlord's right to recover the balance of the rent or pursue any other remedy
available to it. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord's agents during
the Term shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no
agreement to accept a surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by
Landlord. No employee of Landlord or of Landlord's agents shall have any power
to accept the keys to the Premises prior to the termination of this Lease, and
the delivery of the keys to any employee shall not operate as a termination of
the Lease or a surrender of the Premises.
SECTION 14.3. LATE PAYMENTS.
(a) Any rent due under this Lease that is not received by Landlord
within five (5) days of the date when due shall bear interest at the maximum
rate permitted by law from the date due until fully paid. The payment of
interest shall not cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. In addition,
Tenant acknowledges that the late payment by Tenant to Landlord of rent will
cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount
of which will be extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain. Those
costs may include, but are not limited to, administrative, processing and
accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Landlord by the
terms of any ground lease, mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises.
Accordingly, if any rent due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or
Landlord's designee within five (5) business days after the date due, then
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the interest provided above, a
late charge in a sum equal to the greater of five percent (5%) of the amount
overdue or Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00) for each delinquent payment.
Acceptance of a late charge by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of
Tenant's default with respect to the overdue amount, nor shall it prevent
Landlord from exercising any of its rights and remedies.
15
19
(b) Following each second consecutive installment of rent that is not
paid within five (5) days following notice of nonpayment from Landlord, Landlord
shall have the option (i) to require that beginning with the first payment of
rent next due, rent shall no longer be paid in monthly installments but shall be
payable quarterly three (3) months in advance and/or (ii) to require that Tenant
increase the amount, if any, of the Security Deposit by one hundred percent
(100%). Should Tenant deliver to Landlord, at any time during the Term, two (2)
or more insufficient checks, the Landlord may require that all monies then and
thereafter due from Tenant be paid to Landlord by cashier's check.
SECTION 14.4. RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM. All covenants and agreements
to be performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed at Tenant's sole
cost and expense and without any abatement of rent or right of set-off. If
Tenant fails to pay any sum of money, other than rent, or fails to perform any
other act on its part to be performed under this Lease, and the failure
continues beyond any applicable grace period set forth in Section 14.1, then in
addition to any other available remedies, Landlord may, at its election make
the payment or perform the other act on Tenant's part. Landlord's election to
make the payment or perform the act on Tenant's part shall not give rise to any
responsibility of Landlord to continue making the same or similar payments or
performing the same or similar acts. Tenant shall, promptly upon demand by
Landlord, reimburse Landlord for all sums paid by Landlord and all necessary
incidental costs, together with interest at the maximum rate permitted by law
from the date of the payment by Landlord. Landlord shall have the same rights
and remedies if Tenant fails to pay those amounts as Landlord would have in the
event of a default by Tenant in the payment of rent.
SECTION 14.5. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD. Landlord shall not be deemed to be in
default in the performance of any obligation under this Lease unless and until
it has failed to perform the obligation within thirty (30) days after written
notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying in reasonable detail the nature and
extent of the failure; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord's
obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its
performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it commences
performance within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues
the cure to completion.
SECTION 14.6. EXPENSES AND LEGAL FEES. All sums reasonably incurred by
Landlord in connection with any event of default by Tenant under this Lease or
holding over of possession by Tenant after the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, including without limitation all costs, expenses and
actual accountants, appraisers, attorneys and other professional fees, and any
collection agency or other collection charges, shall be due and payable by
Tenant to Landlord on demand, and shall bear interest at the rate of ten
percent (10%) per annum. Should either Landlord or Tenant bring any action in
connection with this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
as a part of the action its reasonable attorneys' fees, and all other costs.
The prevailing party for the purpose of this paragraph shall be determined by
the trier of the facts.
SECTION 14.7. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. LANDLORD AND TENANT EACH ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT IS AWARE OF AND HAS HAD THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE WITH
RESPECT TO ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND EACH PARTY DOES HEREBY EXPRESSLY
AND KNOWINGLY WAIVE AND RELEASE ALL SUCH RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY HERETO AGAINST THE OTHER
(AND/OR AGAINST ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR SUBSIDIARY OR
AFFILIATED ENTITIES) ON ANY MATTERS WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY
CONNECTED WITH THIS LEASE, TENANT'S USE OR OCCUPANCY OF THE PREMISES, AND/OR
ANY CLAIM OF INJURY OR DAMAGE.
SECTION 14.8. SATISFACTION OF JUDGEMENT. The obligations of Landlord do
not constitute the personal obligations of the individual partners, trustees,
directors, officers or shareholders of Landlord or its constituent partners.
Should Tenant recover a money judgment against Landlord, such judgment shall
be satisfied only out of the proceeds of sale received upon execution of such
judgment and levied thereon against the right, title and interest of Landlord
in the Project and out of the rent or other income from such property
receivable by Landlord or out of consideration received by Landlord from the
sale or other disposition of all or any part of Landlord's right, title or
interest in the Project and no action for any deficiency may be sought or
obtained by Tenant.
SECTION 14.9. LIMITATION OF ACTIONS AGAINST LANDLORD. Any claim, demand
or right of any kind by Tenant which is based upon or arises in connection with
this Lease shall be barred unless Tenant commences an action thereon within six
(6) months after the date that the act, omission, event or default upon which
the claim, demand or right arises, has occurred.
ARTICLE XV. END OF TERM
SECTION 15.1. HOLDING OVER. This Lease shall terminate without further
notice upon expiration of the Term, and any holding over by Tenant after the
expiration shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease, or give
Tenant any rights under this Lease, except when in writing signed by both
parties. If Tenant holds over for any period after the expiration (or earlier
termination) of the Term without the prior written consent of Landlord, such
possession shall constitute a tenancy at sufferance only; such holding over with
the prior written consent of Landlord shall constitute a month-to-month tenancy
commencing on the first (1st) day following the termination of this Lease. In
either of such events, possession shall be subject to all of the terms of this
Lease, except that the monthly Basic Rent shall be the greater of (a) one
hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Basic Rent for the month immediately
preceding the date of termination for the initial month of hold over, and one
hundred seventy-five percent (175%) of the Basic Rent
16
20
for the month immediately preceding the date of termination for each month of
hold over thereafter, or (b) the then currently scheduled Basic Rent for
comparable space in the Project. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon
the expiration of this Lease despite demand to do so by Landlord, Tenant shall
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss or liability, including
without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant relating to such
failure to surrender. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after the termination
shall not constitute a consent to a holdover or result in a renewal of this
Lease. The foregoing provisions of this Section are in addition to and do not
affect Landlord's right of re-entry or any other rights of Landlord under this
Lease or at law.
SECTION 15.2. MERGER ON TERMINATION. The voluntary or other surrender of
this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual termination of this Lease, shall terminate
any or all existing subleases unless Landlord, at its option, elects in writing
to treat the surrender or termination as an assignment to it of any or all
subleases affecting the Premises.
SECTION 15.3. SURRENDER OF PREMISES; REMOVAL OF PROPERTY. Upon the
Expiration Date or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order,
condition and repair as when received or as hereafter may be improved by
Landlord or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are Landlord's
obligation excepted, and shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to
be removed from the Premises all personal property and debris, except for any
items that Landlord may by written authorization allow to remain. Tenant shall
repair all damage to the Premises resulting from the removal, which repair
shall include the patching and filling of holes and repair of structural
damage, provided that Landlord may instead elect to repair any structural
damage at Tenant's expense. If Tenant shall fail to comply with the provisions
of this Section, Landlord may effect the removal and/or make any repairs, and
the cost to Landlord shall be additional rent payable by Tenant upon demand. If
Tenant fails to remove Tenant's personal property from the Premises upon the
expiration of the Term, Landlord may remove, store, dispose of and/or retain
such personal property, at Landlord's option, in accordance with then
applicable laws, all at the expense of Tenant. If requested by Landlord, Tenant

releasing and quitclaiming to Landlord all right, title and interest of Tenant
in the Premises.
ARTICLE XVI. PAYMENTS AND NOTICES
All sums payable by Tenant to Landlord shall be paid, without deduction or
offset, in lawful money of the United States to Landlord at its address set
forth in Item 12 of the Basic Lease Provisions, or at any other place as
Landlord may designate in writing. Unless this Lease expressly provides
otherwise, as for example in the payment of rent pursuant to Section 4.1, all
payments shall be due and payable within five (5) days after demand. All
payments requiring proration shall be prorated on the basis on a thirty (30)
day month and a three hundred sixty (360) day year. Any notice, election,
demand, consent, approval or other communication to be given or other document
to be delivered by either party to the other may be delivered in person or by
courier or overnight delivery service to the other party, or may be deposited
in the United States mail, duly registered or certified, postage prepaid,
return receipt requested, and addressed to the other party at the address set
forth in Item 12 of the Basic Lease Provisions, or if to Tenant, at that
address or, from and after the Commencement Date, at the Premises (whether or
not Tenant has departed from, abandoned or vacated the Premises), or may be
delivered by telegram, telex or telecopy, provided that receipt thereof is
telephonically confirmed. Either party may, by written notice to the other,
served in the manner provided in this Article, designate a different address.
If any notice or other document is sent by mail, it shall be deemed served or
delivered twenty-four (24) hours after mailing. If more than one person or
entity is named as Tenant under this Lease, service of any notice upon any one
of them shall be deemed as service upon all of them.
ARTICLE XVII. RULES AND REGULATIONS
Tenant agrees to observe faithfully and comply strictly with the Rules and
Regulations, attached as Exhibit E, and any reasonable and nondiscriminatory
amendments, modifications and/or additions as may be adopted and published by
written notice to tenants by Landlord for the safety, care, security, good
order, or cleanliness of the Premises, Building, Project and Common Areas.
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any violation of the Rules and
Regulations or the breach of any covenant or condition in any lease by any
other tenant or such tenant's agents, employees, contractors, guests or
invitees. One or more waivers by Landlord of any breach of the Rules and
Regulations by Tenant or by any other tenant(s) shall not be a waiver of any
subsequent breach of that rule or any other. Tenant's failure to keep and
observe the Rules and Regulations shall constitute a default under this Lease.
In the case of any conflict between the Rules and Regulations and this Lease,
this Lease shall be controlling.
ARTICLE XVIII. BROKER'S COMMISSION
The parties recognize as the broker(s) who negotiated this Lease the
firm(s), if any, whose name(s) is (are) stated in Item 10 of the Basic Lease
Provisions, and agree that Landlord shall be responsible for the payment of
brokerage commissions to those broker(s) unless otherwise provided in this
Lease. Tenant warrants that it has had no dealings with any other real estate
broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Lease, and Tenant
agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from any cost, expense or
liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) for any compensation,
commissions or charges claimed by any other real estate broker or agent
employed or claiming to
17
21
represent or to have been employed by Tenant in connection with the negotiation
of this Lease. The foregoing agreement shall survive the termination of this
Lease. If Tenant fails to take possession of the Premises or if this Lease
otherwise terminates prior to the Expiration Date as the result of failure of
performance by Tenant, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant the
unamortized portion of any brokerage commission funded by Landlord in addition
to any other damages to which Landlord may be entitled.
ARTICLE XIX. TRANSFER OF LANDLORD'S INTEREST
In the event of any transfer of Landlord's interest in the Premises, the
transferor shall be automatically relieved of all obligations on the part of
Landlord accruing under this Lease from and after the date of the transfer,
provided that any funds held by the transferor in which Tenant has an interest
shall be turned over, subject to that interest, to the transferee and Tenant is
notified of the transfer as required by law. No holder of a mortgage and/or deed
of trust to which this Lease is or may be subordinate, and no landlord under a
so-called sale-leaseback, shall be responsible in connection with the Security
Deposit, unless the mortgagee or holder of the deed of trust or the landlord
actually receives the Security Deposit. It is intended that the covenants and
obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord shall, subject to
the foregoing, be binding on Landlord, its successors and assigns, only during
and in respect to their respective successive periods of ownership.
ARTICLE XX. INTERPRETATION
SECTION 20.1. GENDER AND NUMBER. Whenever the context of this Lease
requires, the words "Landlord" and "Tenant" shall include the plural as well as
the singular, and words used in neuter, masculine or feminine genders shall
include the others.
SECTION 20.2. HEADINGS. The captions and headings of the articles and
sections of this Lease are for convenience only, are not a part of this Lease
and shall have no effect upon its construction or interpretation.
SECTION 20.3. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If more than one person or
entity is named as Tenant, the obligations imposed upon each shall be joint and
several and the act of or notice from, or notice or refund to, or the signature
of, any one or more of them shall be binding on all of them with respect to the
tenancy of this Lease, including, but not limited to, any renewal, extension,
termination or modification of this Lease.
SECTION 20.4. SUCCESSORS. Subject to Articles IX and XIX, all rights and
liabilities given to or imposed upon Landlord and Tenant shall extend to and
bind their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
Nothing contained in this Section is intended, or shall be construed, to grant
to any person other than Landlord and Tenant and their successors and assigns
any rights or remedies under this Lease.
SECTION 20.5. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to the
performance of every provision of this Lease.
SECTION 20.6. CONTROLLING LAW. This Lease shall be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
SECTION 20.7. SEVERABILITY. If any term or provision of this Lease, the
deletion of which would not adversely affect the receipt of any material benefit
by either party or the deletion of which is consented to by the party adversely
affected, shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of
this Lease shall not be affected and each term and provision of this Lease shall
be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
SECTION 20.8. WAIVER AND CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. One or more waivers by
Landlord or Tenant of any breach of any term, covenant or condition contained in
this Lease shall not be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any
other term, covenant or condition. Consent to any act by one of the parties
shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of that party's consent
to any subsequent act. No breach by Tenant of this Lease shall be deemed to have
been waived by Landlord unless the waiver is in a writing signed by Landlord.
The rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease shall be cumulative and in
addition to any and all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have.
SECTION 20.9. INABILITY TO PERFORM. In the event that either party shall
be delayed or hindered in or prevented from the performance of any work or in
performing any act required under this Lease by reason of any cause beyond the
reasonable control of that party, then the performance of the work or the doing
of the act shall be excused for the period of the delay and the time for
performance shall be extended for a period equivalent to the period of the
delay. The provisions of this Section shall not operate to excuse Tenant from
the prompt payment of rent or from the timely performance of any other
obligation under this Lease within Tenant's reasonable control.
SECTION 20.10. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Lease and its exhibits and other
attachments cover in full each and every agreement of every kind between the
parties concerning the Premises, the Building, and the Project, and all
preliminary negotiations, oral agreements, understandings and/or practices,
except those contained in this Lease, are
18
22
superseded and of no further effect. Tenant waives the rights to rely on any
representations or promises made by Landlord or others which are not contained
in this Lease. No verbal agreement or implied covenant shall be held to modify
the provisions of this Lease, any statute, law, or custom to the contrary
notwithstanding.
SECTION 20.11. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Upon the observance and performance of all
the covenants, terms and conditions on Tenant's part to be observed and
performed, and subject to the other provisions of this Lease. Tenant shall
peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term without
hindrance or interruption by Landlord or any other person claiming by or
through Landlord.
SECTION 20.12. SURVIVAL. All covenants of Landlord or Tenant which
reasonably would be intended to survive the expiration or sooner termination of
this Lease, including without limitation any warranty or indemnity hereunder,
shall so survive and continue to be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the respective parties and their successors and assigns.
ARTICLE XXI. EXECUTION AND RECORDING
SECTION 21.1. COUNTERPARTS. This Lease may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which shall
be one and the same agreement.
SECTION 21.2. CORPORATE AND PARTNERSHIP AUTHORITY. If Tenant is a
corporation or partnership, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of
the corporation or partnership represents and warrants that he is duly
authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the corporation or
partnership, and that this Lease is binding upon the corporation or partnership
in accordance with its terms. Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, deliver a
certified copy of its board of directors' resolution or partnership agreement
or certificate authorizing or evidencing the execution of this Lease.
SECTION 21.3. EXECUTION OF LEASE; NO OPTION OR OFFER. The submission of
this Lease to Tenant shall be for examination purposes only, and shall not
constitute an offer to or option for Tenant to lease the Premises. Execution of
this Lease by Tenant and its return to Landlord shall not be binding upon
Landlord, notwithstanding any time interval, until Landlord has in fact
executed and delivered this Lease to Tenant, it being intended that this Lease
shall only become effective upon execution by Landlord and delivery of a fully
executed counterpart to Tenant.
SECTION 21.4. RECORDING. Tenant shall not record this Lease without the
prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant, upon the request of Landlord, shall
execute and acknowledge a "short form" memorandum of this Lease for recording
purposes.
SECTION 21.5. AMENDMENTS. No amendment or termination of this Lease shall
be effective unless in writing signed by authorized signatories of Tenant and
Landlord, or by their respective successors in interest. No actions, policies,
oral or informal arrangements, business dealings or other course of conduct by
or between the parties shall be deemed to modify this Lease in any respect.
SECTION 21.6. EXECUTED COPY. Any fully executed photocopy or similar
reproduction of this Lease shall be deemed an original for all purposes.

attached to this Lease are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this
Lease.
ARTICLE XXII. MISCELLANEOUS
SECTION 22.1. NONDISCLOSURE OF LEASE TERMS. Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary
information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms could adversely affect the
ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord's
relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant agrees that it, and its
partners, officers, directors, employees and attorneys, shall not intentionally
and voluntarily disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any other
tenant or apparent prospective tenant of the Building or Project, either
directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Landlord,
provided, however, that Tenant may disclose the terms to prospective subtenants
or assignees under this Lease.
SECTION 22.2. GUARANTY. As a condition to the execution of this Lease by
Landlord, the obligations, covenants and performance of the Tenant as herein
provided shall be guaranteed in writing by the Guarantor(s) listed in Item 7 of
the Basic Lease Provisions, if any, on a form of guaranty provided by Landlord.
SECTION 22.3. CHANGES REQUESTED BY LENDER. If, in connection with
obtaining financing for the Project, the lender shall request reasonable
modifications in this Lease as a condition to the financing, Tenant will not
unreasonably withhold or delay its consent, provided that the modifications do
not materially increase the obligations of Tenant or materially and adversely
affect the leasehold interest created by this Lease.
19
23
SECTION 22.4. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION. No act or failure to act on the part
of Landlord which would otherwise entitle Tenant to be relieved of its
obligations hereunder or to terminate this Lease shall result in such a release
or termination unless (a) Tenant has given notice by registered or certified
mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgage covering the Building
whose address has been furnished to Tenant and (b) such beneficiary is afforded
a reasonable opportunity to cure the default by Landlord (which in no event
shall be less than sixty (60) days), including, if necessary to effect the
cure, time to obtain possession of the Building by power of sale or judicial
foreclosure provided that such foreclosure remedy is diligently pursued. Tenant
agrees that each beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgage covering the
Building is an express third party beneficiary hereof, Tenant shall have no
right or claim for the collection of any deposit from such beneficiary or from
any purchaser at a foreclosure sale unless such beneficiary or purchaser shall
have actually received and not refunded the deposit, and Tenant shall comply
with any written directions by any beneficiary to pay rent due hereunder
directly to such beneficiary without determining whether an event of default
exists under such beneficiary's deed of trust.
SECTION 22.5. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. All of the provisions of this
Lease shall be construed to be conditions as well as covenants as though the
words specifically expressing or imparting covenants and conditions were used
in each separate provision.
SECTION 22.6. SECURITY MEASURES. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Landlord
shall have no obligation whatsoever to provide guard service or other security
measures for the benefit of the Premises or the Project. Tenant assumes all
responsibility for the protection of Tenant, its agents, invitees and property
from acts of third parties. Nothing herein contained shall prevent Landlord, at
its sole option, from providing security protection for the Project or any part
thereof, in which event the cost thereof shall be included within the
definition of Project Costs.

EXHIBIT C
LANDLORD'S DISCLOSURES
SPECTRUM
The capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Exhibit shall
have the same definitions as set forth in the Lease. The provisions of this
Exhibit shall supersede any inconsistent or conflicting provisions of the Lease.
1. Landlord has been informed that the El Toro Marine Corps Air Station
(MCAS) has been listed as a Federal Superfund site as a result of chemical
releases occurring over many years of occupancy. Various chemicals including
jet fuel, motor oil and solvents have been discharged in several areas
throughout the MCAS site. A regional study conducted by the Orange County Water
District has estimated that groundwaters beneath more than 2,900 acres have
been impacted by Trichloroethylene (TCE), an industrial solvent. There is a
potential that this substance may have migrated into the ground water
underlying the Premises. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Santa
Xxx Region Quality Control Board, and the Orange County Health Care Agency are
overseeing the investigation/cleanup of this contamination. To the Landlord's
current actual knowledge, the ground water in this area is used for irrigation
purposes only, and there is no practical impediment to the use or occupancy of
the Premises due to the El Toro discharges.

EXHIBIT D
TENANT'S INSURANCE
The following standards for Tenant's insurance shall be in effect at the
Building. Landlord reserves the right to adopt reasonable nondiscriminatory
modifications and additions to those standards. Tenant agrees to obtain and
present evidence to Landlord that it has fully complied with the insurance
requirements.
1. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, commencing on the date
Tenant is given access to the Premises for any purpose and during the entire
Term, procure, pay for and keep in full force and effect: (i) commercial general
liability insurance with respect to the Premises and the operations of or on
behalf of Tenant in, on or about the Premises, including but not limited to
personal injury, owned and nonowned automobile, blanket contractual, independent
contractors, broad form property damage (with an exception to any pollution
exclusion with respect to damage arising out of heat, smoke or fumes from a
hostile fire), fire and water legal liability, products liability (if a product
is sold from the Premises), liquor law liability (if alcoholic beverages are
sold, served, or consumed within the Premises), and severability of interest,
which policy(ies) shall be written on an "occurrence" basis and for not less
than the amount set forth in Item 13 of the Basic Lease Provisions, with a
combined single limit (with a $50,000 minimum limit on fire legal liability) per
occurrence for bodily injury, death, and property damage liability, or the
current limit of liability carried by Tenant, whichever is greater, and subject
to such increases in amounts as Landlord may determine from time to time; (ii)
workers' compensation insurance coverage as required by law, together with
employers' liability insurance; (iii) with respect to improvements, alterations,
and the like required or permitted to be made by Tenant under this Lease,
builder's all-risk insurance, in an amount equal to the replacement cost of the
Work; (iv) insurance against fire, vandalism, malicious mischief and such other
additional perils as may be included in a standard "all risk" form in general
use in the county in which the Premises are situated, insuring Tenant's
leasehold improvements, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment and items of
personal property of Tenant located in the Premises, in an amount equal to not
less than ninety percent (90%) of their actual replacement cost (with
replacement cost endorsement); and (v) business interruption insurance in
amounts satisfactory to cover one (1) year of loss. In no event shall the limits
of any policy be considered as limiting the liability of Tenant under this
Lease.
2. In the event Landlord consents to Tenant's use, generation or storage
of Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Premises pursuant to Section 5.3
of this Lease, Landlord shall have the continuing right to require Tenant, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense (provided the same is available for purchase
upon commercially reasonable terms), to purchase insurance specified and
approved by Landlord, with coverage not less than Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000.00), insuring (i) any Hazardous Materials shall be removed from the
Premises, (ii) the Premises shall be restored to a clean, healthy, safe and
sanitary condition, and (iii) any liability of Tenant, Landlord and Landlord's
officers, directors, shareholders, agents, employees and representatives,
arising from such Hazardous Materials.
3. All policies of insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant
to this Exhibit D containing a deductible exceeding Five Thousand Dollars
($5,000.00) per occurrence must be approved in writing by Landlord prior to the
issuance of such policy. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the payment of
all deductibles.
4. All policies of insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant
to this Exhibit D shall be written by responsible insurance companies
authorized to do business in the State of California and with a Best's rating
of not less than "A" subject to final acceptance and approval by Landlord. Any
insurance required of Tenant may be furnished by Tenant under any blanket
policy carried by it or under a separate policy, so long as (i) the Premises
are specifically covered (by rider, endorsement or otherwise), (ii) the limits
of the policy are applicable on a "per location" basis to the Premises and
provide for restoration of the aggregate limits, and (iii) the policy otherwise
complies with the provisions of this Exhibit D. A true and exact copy of each
paid up policy evidencing the insurance (appropriately authenticated by the
insurer) or a certificate of insurance, certifying that the policy has been
issued, provides the coverage required by this Exhibit D and contains the
required provisions, shall be delivered to Landlord prior to the date Tenant is
given the right of possession of the Premises. Proper evidence of the renewal
of any insurance coverage shall also be delivered to Landlord prior to the
expiration of the coverage. Landlord may at any time, and from time to time,
inspect and/or copy any and all insurance policies required by this Lease.
5. Each policy evidencing insurance required to be carried by Tenant
pursuant to this Exhibit D shall contain the following provisions and/or
clauses satisfactory to Landlord: (i) a provision that the policy and the
coverage provided shall be primary and that any coverage carried by Landlord
shall be noncontributory with respect to any policies carried by Tenant except
as to workers' compensation insurance; (ii) a provision including Landlord, the
Additional Insureds identified in Item 11 of the Basic Lease Provisions, and
any other parties in interest designated by Landlord as an additional insured,
except as to workers' compensation insurance; (iii) a waiver by the insurer of
any right to subrogation against Landlord, its agents, employees, contractors
and representatives which arises or might arise by reason of any payment under
the policy or by reason of any act or omission of Landlord, its agents,
employees, contractors or representatives; and (iv) a provision that the
