This lease is made by Landlord and is accepted by Tenant upon the following
terms, and it is agreed that each of the terms hereinafter specified shall be
conditions as well as covenants.
(1) RENT AND TERM. For and in consideration of the prompt payment of the
rent by Tenant and exact performance of the covenants hereinafter set

hereby hires from Landlord, that certain office SUITE NO. #1500

term of 12 MONTHS commencing on 8/21/02 and ending on 7/31/03 at the
monthly rental rate of $550.00 dollars payable at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx
#0000, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx ("Landlord's Office").
If Landlord is unwilling or unable to deliver possession of the
premises to Tenant, because of: (a) the loss or destruction of the
premises, (b) failure of the prior tenant to vacate, or (c) for any other
reason, then the Tenant or Landlord may immediately cancel or terminate
this agreement upon written notice to the other party at their last known
address; whereupon neither party shall have liability to the other, and any
sums paid under this lease shall be refunded in full. If neither party
cancels, the rent payable under this lease shall be prorated and begin on
the date of possession.
Said rent shall be paid monthly in advance on the first day of each
month by personal check or certified funds, without deduction or offset, at
Landlord's office or at such other place in the State of California as
Landlord may designate in writing. Should Tenant fail to pay rental by the
close of the fifth day following the date on which it was due, or should
Tenant pay rental by a check that is not honored by the bank, then Tenant
agrees to pay to Landlord the sum of $25.00 as a fee for the processing of
either late rental payments or checks which are not honored at the bank.
The parties acknowledge that if the rental is not paid on time or is paid
by a check that is not honored by the bank, that Landlord is put to
additional bookkeeping and related expenses, the precise amount of which is
difficult if not impossible to ascertain, and for that reason the parties
hereto have agreed upon the above sum to compensate Landlord for such
expenses. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as to either permit,
sanction, or authorize payment of rental other than on the day it is due or
the payment of rental with checks that are not honored by the bank. Should
rent be paid by a check which is not honored, Landlord may, at its sole
discretion, demand that future payments must be by cashier's check or money
order. The money failure to pay ray rental on the due date or the payment
of rental with a check that is not honored by the bank shall immediately
vest landlord all those rights which it would have notwithstanding any
provisions contained in this paragraph, including, without limitation,
those rights described in Article 12 hereof.
(2) SECURITY DEPOSIT. In addition to the rent provided to be deposited
herewith in paragraph (1) herein, as part of the consideration for the
execution of this lease by Landlord, Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord the sum of $500.00, receipt of which Landlord acknowledges,
as security for the payment of the rent reserved and the faithful
performance by Tenant of all the terms, conditions, and covenants
herein to be performed by Tenant. Upon termination of the Lease, and
after Tenant has vacated the premises, Landlord shall return said sum
herewith deposited to Tenant, less any amounts necessary: to
compensate landlord for any default in the payment of rent or other
sum payable under this lease; to repair damages to the premises; to
clean, carpet, shampoo or paint the premises if Tenant does not leave
the premises clean and free of debris; to restore, replace, or return
Landlord's personal property or appurtenances; to remedy future
defaults by Tenant of any obligations herein; or for any other
purposes permitted by law. No interest shall be payable on the
security deposit unless required by law.
(3) KEYS. All keys and/or entry cards relating to the premises shall be
returned on the date the premises are surrendered or vacated. If
Tenant shall fail to return any key and/or card supplied by Landlord,
Tenant shall pay Landlord's charge (as adopted from time to time) for
the failure to return any such key and/or card.
(4) USE, ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE. Tenant shall not use the premises or any
part thereof or suffer the same to be used for any purpose other than
as an office, nor by any person other than Tenant as identified
hereinabove. Tenant shall not sell, assign, hypothecate, license or
transfer the premises or any part thereof (including, without
limitation, the aforesaid assigned parking stall or privilege). It is
expressly understood and agreed that the character of the occupancy of
the premises, as above restricted, is a special consideration and
inducement for the granting of this lease and in the event of
violation hereof by Tenant or if Tenant shall cease to occupy the
premises or shall permit the premises (including, without limitation
the aforesaid parking stall or privilege) to be occupied or used by
parties other than Tenant, or violate any other restriction or
condition hereby imposed, this lease may be terminated by Landlord in
the manner provided in paragraph (12) hereof.. Tenant further agrees
(a) not to use or suffer or permit the premises or any part thereof to
be used for any purpose or in the use in violation of any law,
ordinance, or regulation of any governmental authority, or in any
manner that will constitute a nuisance or an annoyance to the owners
or occupants of adjoining or neighboring property or to other tenants
or occupants of the building, or in any hazardous purpose or in any
manner that might violate any policy of insurance or suspend, avoid,
make inoperative or increase the rate of any fire, rental, other
insurance, at any time carried on the building or any of its contents
and (b) not to permit any auction to be conducted in the premises. In
the event of any disturbance by Tenant or Tenant's servants,
employees, agents, invitees, or licensees, Landlord may, in addition
to all other remedies provide herein, at its option terminate this
lease by written notice. Tenant agrees to vacate premises within three
days after delivery of said notice. If Landlord accepts rent from any
person not a Tenant (or not named above), whether or not the person
occupies the premises, said shall not constitute a waiver of this
paragraph (4), shall not be used to establish said person's right to
possession of the premises, and shall be interpreted only as an
accommodation to the Tenant.
(5) MISREPRESENATIONS. It is further understood and agreed that in the
event Tenant shall in its Application to Lease make any
misrepresentation, Landlord may treat same as a violation of covenant
of this lease, and the remedies provided under paragraph (12) hereof

determined on statements rendered by Landlord to Tenant and then the
sum so determined shall be payable to Landlord upon delivery of such
statement; and if the same not be paid by Tenant within ten (10) days
thereafter, then said sum shall be deducted from the security deposit
and the failure of Tenant to promptly restore the security deposit for

regulations and with the regulations of the Board of Fire Underwriters
applicable to the premises.
(b) Upon the ending of the term in any manner, Tenant shall quit and
surrender premises in as good order and condition as they were at the
beginning of the term, excluding normal wear and tear. If said
premises be not so surrendered at any ending term, Tenant shall be
responsible to Landlord for all of the damage which Landlord shall
suffer as a result thereof, and further will hold harmless Landlord
from any claim made by any succeeding tenants against Landlord,
resulting from delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the
premises to such succeeding tenant , so far as such delay is
occasioned by failure of Tenant so to surrender the premises.

Tenant agrees that all persons visiting the premises shall observe and
comply with, the "Rules and Regulations Governing Office Tenancy in
the Building" which are incorporated herein by reference, and such

good order therein, as well as the comfort, quiet and convenience of
other tenants.

hereto, each of them does understand and agree that the act of notice
of ot to, or refund to, or the signature of, any one or more of them,

signed, or given or received such notice or refund. Whenever used, the
word `Tenants" shall refer to all tenants named on and signatories to
this lease. If more than one tenant is named herein all Tenants shall
be liable jointly and severally for all obligations of Tenant
hereunder.

repaired within thirty (30) days, or if landlord shall decide to
rebuild or to reconstruct or repair the building so that, as
reconstructed or repaired, it will be substantially different
structurally or architecturally, then all interest of Tenant in the
premises shall terminate, and this lease shall become void from such
time. In the event that Landlord is making repairs and that any
question shall arise between landlord and Tenant as to whether or not
repairs shall have been made with reasonable dispatch, due allowance
shall be made for any delay which may arise in connection with the
adjustment of the fire insurance loss, and for any delay arising out
of what are commonly known as "labor troubles," or any other cause
beyond landlord's direct control.

recovery of the premises, the cost of removal of persons and
property therefrom, and the worth at the time of a court award of
damages in favor of landlord of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for the balance of the term after the time of such court
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period
that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided.
b. Re-enter the premises and remove all persons therefrom in
accordance with law, and, without terminating this lease, from
time to time re-let the premises or any part thereof on such
terms and conditions as Landlord may deem fit (which may be for a

possession and re-letting the premises, and the same shall be due
and payable on the several rent days specified herein.

to accept keys of the premises prior to the termination of this
lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of landlord or

eviction nor entitle Tenant to any compensation or abatement of
rent. The receipt by Landlord of rent with knowledge of the
breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed a waiver
of such breach. No provision of this lease shall be deemed to
have been waived by landlord unless such waiver be in writing,
signed by Landlord. No payment by Tenant or receipt by landlord
of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall
be deemed to be other than an account of the earliest stipulated

letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or
payment without prejudice to landlord's right to recover the
balance if such rent or pursue any other remedy, including,
without limitation, the remedy of eviction. If upon failure of
Tenant to pay the rent as aforesaid, or to comply with any other
covenants, conditions, ruled and regulations of this lease,

COMMERCIAL OFFICE LEASE
THIS LEASE is made this day, 11/30/03, by and between Barrington Pacific, LLC, a
California Limited Partnership, commonly referred to as Pacific Plaza, herein
called "Landlord", and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, herein called "Tenant".
This lease is made by Landlord and is accepted by Tenant upon the following
terms, and it is agreed that each of the terms hereinafter specified shall be
conditions as well as covenants.
(1) RENT AND TERM. For and in consideration of the prompt payment of the
rent by Tenant and exact performance of the covenants hereinafter set
fourth by Tenant, Landlord does hereby lease to Tenant, and Tenant
hereby hires from Landlord, that certain office SUITE NO. #1100
located at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx (the
"premises"), together with __0__ assigned/valet automobile parking
stall number _n/a, of parking privileges for __0__ automobiles for the
term of 12 MONTHS commencing on 8/21/02 and ending on 7/31/03 at the
monthly rental rate of $675.00 dollars payable at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx
#0000, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx ("Landlord's Office").
If Landlord is unwilling or unable to deliver possession of the
premises to Tenant, because of: (a) the loss or destruction of the
premises, (b) failure of the prior tenant to vacate, or (c) for any other
reason, then the Tenant or Landlord may immediately cancel or terminate
this agreement upon written notice to the other party at their last known
address; whereupon neither party shall have liability to the other, and any
sums paid under this lease shall be refunded in full. If neither party
cancels, the rent payable under this lease shall be prorated and begin on
the date of possession.
Said rent shall be paid monthly in advance on the first day of each
month by personal check or certified funds, without deduction or offset, at
Landlord's office or at such other place in the State of California as
Landlord may designate in writing. Should Tenant fail to pay rental by the
close of the fifth day following the date on which it was due, or should
Tenant pay rental by a check that is not honored by the bank, then Tenant
agrees to pay to Landlord the sum of $25.00 as a fee for the processing of
either late rental payments or checks which are not honored at the bank.
The parties acknowledge that if the rental is not paid on time or is paid
by a check that is not honored by the bank, that Landlord is put to
additional bookkeeping and related expenses, the precise amount of which is
difficult if not impossible to ascertain, and for that reason the parties
hereto have agreed upon the above sum to compensate Landlord for such
expenses. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as to either permit,
sanction, or authorize payment of rental other than on the day it is due or
the payment of rental with checks that are not honored by the bank. Should
rent be paid by a check which is not honored, Landlord may, at its sole
discretion, demand that future payments must be by cashier's check or money
order. The money failure to pay ray rental on the due date or the payment
of rental with a check that is not honored by the bank shall immediately
vest landlord all those rights which it would have notwithstanding any
provisions contained in this paragraph, including, without limitation,
those rights described in Article 12 hereof.
(2) SECURITY DEPOSIT. In addition to the rent provided to be deposited
herewith in paragraph (1) herein, as part of the consideration for the
execution of this lease by Landlord, Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord the sum of $500.00, receipt of which Landlord acknowledges,
as security for the payment of the rent reserved and the faithful
performance by Tenant of all the terms, conditions, and covenants
herein to be performed by Tenant. Upon termination of the Lease, and
after Tenant has vacated the premises, Landlord shall return said sum
herewith deposited to Tenant, less any amounts necessary: to
compensate landlord for any default in the payment of rent or other
sum payable under this lease; to repair damages to the premises; to
clean, carpet, shampoo or paint the premises if Tenant does not leave
the premises clean and free of debris; to restore, replace, or return
Landlord's personal property or appurtenances; to remedy future
defaults by Tenant of any obligations herein; or for any other
purposes permitted by law. No interest shall be payable on the
security deposit unless required by law.
(3) KEYS. All keys and/or entry cards relating to the premises shall be
returned on the date the premises are surrendered or vacated. If
Tenant shall fail to return any key and/or card supplied by Landlord,
Tenant shall pay Landlord's charge (as adopted from time to time) for
the failure to return any such key and/or card.
(4) USE, ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASE. Tenant shall not use the premises or any
part thereof or suffer the same to be used for any purpose other than
as an office, nor by any person other than Tenant as identified
hereinabove. Tenant shall not sell, assign, hypothecate, license or
transfer the premises or any part thereof (including, without
limitation, the aforesaid assigned parking stall or privilege). It is
expressly understood and agreed that the character of the occupancy of
the premises, as above restricted, is a special consideration and
inducement for the granting of this lease and in the event of
violation hereof by Tenant or if Tenant shall cease to occupy the
premises or shall permit the premises (including, without limitation
the aforesaid parking stall or privilege) to be occupied or used by
parties other than Tenant, or violate any other restriction or
condition hereby imposed, this lease may be terminated by Landlord in
the manner provided in paragraph (12) hereof.. Tenant further agrees
(a) not to use or suffer or permit the premises or any part thereof to
be used for any purpose or in the use in violation of any law,
ordinance, or regulation of any governmental authority, or in any
manner that will constitute a nuisance or an annoyance to the owners
or occupants of adjoining or neighboring property or to other tenants
or occupants of the building, or in any hazardous purpose or in any
manner that might violate any policy of insurance or suspend, avoid,
make inoperative or increase the rate of any fire, rental, other
insurance, at any time carried on the building or any of its contents
and (b) not to permit any auction to be conducted in the premises. In
the event of any disturbance by Tenant or Tenant's servants,
employees, agents, invitees, or licensees, Landlord may, in addition
to all other remedies provide herein, at its option terminate this
lease by written notice. Tenant agrees to vacate premises within three
days after delivery of said notice. If Landlord accepts rent from any
person not a Tenant (or not named above), whether or not the person
occupies the premises, said shall not constitute a waiver of this
paragraph (4), shall not be used to establish said person's right to
possession of the premises, and shall be interpreted only as an
accommodation to the Tenant.
(5) MISREPRESENATIONS. It is further understood and agreed that in the
event Tenant shall in its Application to Lease make any
misrepresentation, Landlord may treat same as a violation of covenant
of this lease, and the remedies provided under paragraph (12) hereof
shall become applicable and applicable thereto.

knows the condition of the premises and has received the same in good

part or portion of the premises, or suffer the same to be done. As and
when needed, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
repair the premises, its appurtenances, fixtures, and equipment where
rendered necessary by misuse or neglect of Tenant, its servants,
employees, agents, invitees, or licensee. The cost thereof shall be
determined on statements rendered by Landlord to Tenant and then the
sum so determined shall be payable to Landlord upon delivery of such
statement; and if the same not be paid by Tenant within ten (10) days
thereafter, then said sum shall be deducted from the security deposit
and the failure of Tenant to promptly restore the security deposit for
the full amount shall be a reach of this lease.

and with the regulations of the Board of Fire Underwriters applicable to
the premises.
(b) Upon the ending of the term in any manner, Tenant shall quit and
surrender premises in as good order and condition as they were at the
beginning of the term, excluding normal wear and tear. If said premises be
not so surrendered at any ending term, Tenant shall be responsible to
Landlord for all of the damage which Landlord shall suffer as a result
thereof, and further will hold harmless Landlord from any claim made by any
succeeding tenants against Landlord, resulting from delay by Landlord in
delivering possession of the premises to such succeeding tenant , so far as
such delay is occasioned by failure of Tenant so to surrender the premises.
(7) RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall observe and comply with, and
Tenant agrees that all persons visiting the premises shall observe and
comply with, the "Rules and Regulations Governing Office Tenancy in
the Building" which are incorporated herein by reference, and such
modifications or additions hereto and such other and further Rules and
Regulations as Landlord may from time to time deem necessary for the
safety, care and cleanliness of the building, and the preservation of
good order therein, as well as the comfort, quiet and convenience of
other tenants.
(8) SIGNATURE OF TENANTS. If there is more than one tenant signatory
hereto, each of them does understand and agree that the act of notice
of ot to, or refund to, or the signature of, any one or more of them,
in relation to the tenancy or to the renewal thereof, or termination
thereof, shall be binding upon each and all Tenants signing this lease
with the same force and effect as if each and all of them had acted,
signed, or given or received such notice or refund. Whenever used, the
word `Tenants" shall refer to all tenants named on and signatories to
this lease. If more than one tenant is named herein all Tenants shall
be liable jointly and severally for all obligations of Tenant
hereunder.
(9) LIENS. Tenant shall keep the premises and the property free and clear
of all liens.
(10) DAMAGE. If the premises shall be partially damaged by fire or

destruction of the building of which the premises form a part by fire,
earthquake or otherwise, or in case the damage to the premises shall
be so extensive that they cannot, in the sole opinion of Landlord, be
repaired within thirty (30) days, or if landlord shall decide to
rebuild or to reconstruct or repair the building so that, as
reconstructed or repaired, it will be substantially different
structurally or architecturally, then all interest of Tenant in the
premises shall terminate, and this lease shall become void from such
time. In the event that Landlord is making repairs and that any
question shall arise between landlord and Tenant as to whether or not
repairs shall have been made with reasonable dispatch, due allowance
shall be made for any delay which may arise in connection with the
adjustment of the fire insurance loss, and for any delay arising out
of what are commonly known as "labor troubles," or any other cause
beyond landlord's direct control.
(11) DEFAULT. If Tenant defaults in the payment of the rent herein provided
for, or if Tenant defaults in the performance of any other of Tenant's
obligations herein contained for three days after written notice
thereof from landlord, or if Tenant abandons or vacates the premises,
in addition to any other rights or remedies which landlord may have by
law, Landlord may have by law, Landlord may at his option:

premises as provided by law; and landlord shall be thereupon
entitled to recover from Tenant all damages landlord may have
suffered by reason of Tenant's breach, including the cost of
recovery of the premises, the cost of removal of persons and
property therefrom, and the worth at the time of a court award of
damages in favor of landlord of the amount by which the unpaid
rent for the balance of the term after the time of such court
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss for the same period
that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided.
b. Re-enter the premises and remove all persons therefrom in
accordance with law, and, without terminating this lease, from
time to time re-let the premises or any part thereof on such
terms and conditions as Landlord may deem fit (which may be for a
term extending beyond the term of this lease or any extension or
renewal thereof) and receive and collect the rents therefore
which shall be applied to any indebtedness. In the event and
whether or not the premises or any part thereof is re-let, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord all such sums required to be paid by Tenant
up to the time of re-entry by landlord, and thereafter Tenant
shall, if required by Landlord, pay to landlord until the end of
the term of this lease or any re-letting after deducting all
Landlord's cost and expenses assumed or incurred in recovering
possession and re-letting the premises, and the same shall be due
and payable on the several rent days specified herein.
c. In the event of any re-entry and taking possession of the
premises as provided in this paragraph (12), Landlord shall have

personal property located therein and may place the same in
storage at the expense and risk of the owner or owners thereof

d. No employee of landlord or landlord's agent shall have any power
to accept keys of the premises prior to the termination of this
lease. The delivery of keys to any employee of landlord or

any service shall not constitute a constructive or partial
eviction nor entitle Tenant to any compensation or abatement of
rent. The receipt by Landlord of rent with knowledge of the
breach of any covenant of this lease shall not be deemed a waiver
of such breach. No provision of this lease shall be deemed to
have been waived by landlord unless such waiver be in writing,
signed by Landlord. No payment by Tenant or receipt by landlord
of a lesser amount than the monthly rent herein stipulated shall
be deemed to be other than an account of the earliest stipulated
rent, nor shall any endorsement of statement on any check or any
letter accompanying any check or payment as rent be deemed an
accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or
payment without prejudice to landlord's right to recover the
balance if such rent or pursue any other remedy, including,
without limitation, the remedy of eviction. If upon failure of
Tenant to pay the rent as aforesaid, or to comply with any other
covenants, conditions, ruled and regulations of this lease,

premises, or to enforce any provision of this lease, or to obtain
damages, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord reasonable costs and
expenses in said action or for said notice, including attorney's
fees, whether or not any such action proceeds to judgment.
