2. TERM.

A. Scheduled Lease Term. The “Term” of this Lease shall be for a period of three (3) years (unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided) and, subject to Paragraphs 2.B, 2.C and 3, shall commence on the later of (i) the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant following substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements as provided in Paragraph 9.B (“As-Is Basis: Tenant Improvements”) below, or (ii) the 1st day of June, 2006 (the “Commencement Date”) and end on the 31st day of May, 2009 (the “Termination Date”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Lease Commencement Date be prior to June 1, 2006 unless the Tenant Improvements are substantially completed and any portion of the Premises is occupied by any of Tenant’s operating personnel prior to June 1, 2006, in which event the Lease Commencement Date shall be changed from the scheduled Commencement Date of June 1, 2006 to the earlier date that Tenant occupies any portion of the Premises.

B. Tender of Possession. Possession of the Premises shall be tendered by Landlord to Tenant and the Term of the Lease shall commence when the first of the following occurs:

(a) One day after a temporary Certificate of Occupancy or other Building signoff is granted by the proper governmental agency, or, if the governmental agency having jurisdiction over the area in which the Premises are situated does not issue certificates of occupancy, then the same number of days after certification by Landlord’s architect or contractor that Landlord’s construction work has been completed; or

(b) Upon the occupancy of the Premises by any of Tenant’s operating personnel; or

(c) When the Tenant Improvements have been substantially completed for Tenant’s use and occupancy and Landlord has delivered the Premises to Tenant, in accordance and compliance with Paragraph 9 (“As Is Basis”) and Exhibit B of this Lease; provided, however, that in no event, except as noted in Paragraphs 2.A or 2.B(b) above or 2.C (“Early Entry”) below, shall the Term of the Lease commence before June 1, 2006; or

(d) As otherwise agreed in writing.

C. Early Entry: Upon receipt of written notice from Landlord (by U.S. Mail, facsimile or electronic mail) that the Premises is available for Tenant’s entry, Tenant and its agents and contractors shall be permitted to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date for the purpose of installing at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, Tenant’s trade fixtures and equipment, telephone equipment, security systems and cabling for computers. Such entry shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be required to pay any Rent on account thereof. Any entry or installation work by Tenant and its agents in the Premises pursuant to this Paragraph 2.C shall (i) be undertaken at Tenant’s sole risk, (ii) not interfere with or delay Landlord’s work in the Premises (if any), and (iii) not be deemed occupancy or possession of the Premises for purposes of the Lease. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from any and all loss, damage, liability, expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees), claim or demand of whatsoever character, direct or consequential, including, but without limiting thereby the generality of the foregoing, injury to or death of persons and damage to or loss of property arising out of the exercise by Tenant of any early entry right granted hereunder. In the event Tenant’s work in said Premises delays the completion of the interior improvements to be provided by Landlord, if any, or in the event Tenant has not completed construction of its interior improvements, if any, by the scheduled Commencement Date, it is agreed between the parties that this Lease will commence on the earlier of (x) occupancy of any portion of the Premises by any of Tenant’s operating personnel pursuant to Paragraph 2.B(b) (“Term: Tender of Possession”) above, or (y) the date Landlord would have completed the Tenant Improvements but for the delay caused by Tenant regardless of the construction status of said interior improvements completed or to be completed by Tenant or Landlord, as the case may be. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the commencement of Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent under the Lease not be delayed by any of such causes or by any other act of Tenant (except as expressly provided herein) and, in the event it is so delayed, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent under the Lease shall commence as of the date it would otherwise have commenced absent delay caused by Tenant.

It is agreed in the event said Lease commences on a date other than the first day of the month the Term of the Lease will be extended to account for the number of days in the partial month. The Basic Rent during the resulting partial month will be pro-rated (for the number of days in the partial month) at the Basic Rent rate scheduled for the projected Commencement Date as shown in Paragraph 4.A.

3. POSSESSION. If Landlord, for any reason whatsoever, cannot deliver possession of said Premises to Tenant on June 1, 2006, this Lease shall not be void or voidable; no obligation of Tenant shall be affected thereby; nor shall Landlord or Landlord’s agents be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom; but in that event the commencement and termination dates of the Lease, and all other dates affected thereby shall be revised to conform to the date of Landlord’s delivery of possession, as specified in Paragraph 2.B above. The above is, however, subject to the provision that the period of delay of delivery of the Premises shall not exceed sixty (60) days from the latter of (i) the projected Lease Commencement Date or (ii) the date this Lease is executed by all parties hereto (except those delays caused by Tenant, Acts of God, strikes, war, utilities, governmental bodies, weather, unavailable materials, and delays beyond Landlord’s control (“Force Majeure Delays”) shall be excluded in calculating such period) in which instance Tenant, at its option, may, by written notice to Landlord, terminate this Lease; provided Tenant submits said notice to Landlord prior to the expiration of said sixty day period as extended by Force Majeure Delays.

4. RENT.

A. Basic Rent. Subject to Paragraph 2.B (“Term: Tender of Possession”), Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord at such place as Landlord may designate without deduction, offset, prior notice, or demand, and Landlord agrees to accept as Basic Rent for the Premises the total sum of ONE MILLION SIX THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-NINE AND 04/100 Dollars ($1,006,169.04) in lawful money of the United States of America, payable as follows:

Upon Tenant’s execution of this Lease, the sum of TWENTY-SIX THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE AND 84/100 DOLLARS ($26,865.84) shall be due, representing the Basic Rent for the month of June 2006.

B. Time for Payment. Full monthly Rent is due in advance on the first day of each calendar month. In the event that the Term of this Lease commences on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, on the date of commencement of the Term hereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Rent for the period from such date of commencement to the first day of the next succeeding calendar month that proportion of the monthly Rent hereunder for the number of days between such date of commencement and the first day of the next succeeding calendar month. In the event that the Term of this Lease for any reason ends on a date other than the last day of a calendar month, on the first day of the last calendar month of the Term hereof Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Rent for the period from said first day of said last calendar month to and including the last day of the Term hereof that proportion of the monthly Rent hereunder for the number of days between said first day of said last calendar month and the last day of the Term hereof.

C. Late Charge. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, if Tenant does not pay to Landlord any payment of Rent as set forth in this Paragraph 4 when due, or any part thereof, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, in addition to the delinquent Rent due, a late charge for each Rent payment not received by Landlord within ten (10) days of the due date (“Late Charge”). Said Late Charge shall equal ten percent (10%) of each Rent payment not received by Landlord within such ten (10) day period. Said Late Charge shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days after presentation of an invoice from Landlord or Landlord’s agent setting forth the amount of said Late Charge. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord’s failure to issue a Late Charge invoice in the month of any late payment shall not be considered a waiver of Landlord’s right to collect said Late Charge.

D. Additional Rent. Beginning with the Commencement Date of the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord or to Landlord’s designated agent in addition to the Basic Rent and as Additional Rent the following:

(a) Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all Taxes relating to the Complex and Premises as set forth in Paragraph 13, and

(b) Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all insurance premiums and deductibles relating to the Complex and Premises, as set forth in Paragraph 17, and

(c) Tenant’s Proportionate Share of expenses for the operation, management, maintenance, and repair of the Building (including common areas of the Building) and Common Areas of the Complex in which the Premises are located as set forth in Paragraph 7, and

(d) All charges, costs and expenses, which Tenant is required to pay hereunder, together with all interest and penalties, costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, that may accrue thereto in the event of Tenant’s failure to pay such amounts, and all damages, reasonable costs and expenses which Landlord may incur by reason of default of Tenant or failure on Tenant’s part to comply with the terms of this Lease. In the event of nonpayment by Tenant of Additional Rent, Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies with respect thereto as Landlord has for nonpayment of Rent.

References to “Proportionate Share” herein and throughout the Lease shall mean the Proportionate Share allocated to the Premises based on (a) the total square footage of Tenant’s Premises as a percentage of the total square footage of the Building (21,666+ square foot Premises divided by 45,000+ square foot Building equals 48.15%) or (b) such other equitable basis as calculated by Landlord. The total square footage of Tenant’s Premises as a percentage of the total square footage of the Complex is 5.07% (21,666+ square foot Premises divided by 427,500+ square foot Complex).

The Additional Rent due hereunder shall be paid to Landlord or Landlord’s agent (i) within five days for taxes and insurance and within thirty (30) days for all other Additional Rent items after presentation of invoice from Landlord or Landlord’s agent setting forth such Additional Rent (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord shall not be required to submit ongoing monthly statements to Tenant reflecting amounts owed as Additional Rent) and/or (ii) at the option of Landlord, Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, in advance, Tenant’s prorata share of an amount estimated by Landlord to be Landlord’s approximate average monthly expenditure for such Additional Rent items, which estimated amount shall be reconciled (i) within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of each calendar year and (ii) within 120 days of the Termination Date (or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible if, for whatever reason, the Landlord cannot complete the reconciliation within said 120 day periods) or more frequently if Landlord elects to do so at Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion as compared to Landlord’s actual expenditure for said Additional Rent items, with Tenant paying to Landlord, upon demand, any amount of actual expenses expended by Landlord in excess of said estimated amount, or Landlord crediting to Tenant (providing Landlord may withhold any amount thereof required to cure Tenant’s default in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease) any amount of estimated payments made by Tenant in excess of Landlord’s actual expenditures for said Additional Rent Items. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s reconciliation, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole expense, to audit, at a mutually convenient time at Landlord’s office, Landlord’s records specifically limited to the foregoing expenses. Such audit must be conducted by Tenant or an independent nationally recognized accounting firm that is not being compensated by Tenant or other third party on a contingency fee basis. Tenant shall submit to Landlord a complete copy of said audit at no expense to Landlord and a written notice stating the results of said audit, and if such notice by Tenant and the respective audit reveals that Landlord has overcharged Tenant, and the audit is not challenged by Landlord, the amount overcharged shall be credited to Tenant’s account within thirty (30) days after completion of Landlord’s review and approval of said audit. The audit rights of Tenant under this Paragraph 4.D are granted for Tenant’s personal benefit and may not be assigned or transferred by Tenant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, in any manner whatsoever. In the event that Landlord consents to an assignment under Paragraph 21, the audit rights herein shall be void and of no force and effect, whether or not Tenant shall have purported to exercise its right to audit Landlord’s records prior to such assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no subtenant shall have any right to conduct an audit of Landlord’s books and/or records.

Landlord shall, upon request by Tenant, provide Tenant with copies of individual invoices related to the foregoing actual expenses, either by facsimile or by U.S. mail; however, in no event shall Landlord be obligated to provide duplicate copies of any invoice or other Lease documentation to Tenant and/or Tenant’s representative (if any) for an audit of Tenant’s records outside of Landlord’s office.

E. Fixed Management Fee. Beginning with the Commencement Date of the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the Basic Rent and Additional Rent, a fixed monthly management fee (“Management Fee”) equal to three percent (3%) of the Basic Rent due for each month during the Term. Tenant shall be responsible for calculating the monthly Management Fee based on the Basic Rent schedule shown in Paragraph 4.A above, and for paying said Management Fee by the first day of each month during the Term of this Lease. Tenant’s failure to pay the monthly Management Fee by the due date will result in a Late Charge being assessed pursuant to the terms of Paragraph 4.C above.

The reference to “Rent” in this Paragraph 4 includes Basic Rent, Additional Rent, and fixed Management Fee. The respective obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this paragraph shall survive the expiration or other termination of the Term of this Lease, and if the Term hereof shall expire or shall otherwise terminate on a day other than the last day of a calendar year, the actual Additional Rent incurred for the calendar year in which the Term hereof expires or otherwise terminates shall be determined and settled on the basis of the statement of actual Additional Rent for such calendar year and shall be prorated in the proportion which the number of days in such calendar year preceding such expiration or termination bears to 365.

F. Place of Payment of Rent. All Rent hereunder shall be paid to Landlord at the office of Landlord at: PEERY/ARRILLAGA, FILE 1504, BOX 60000, SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94160, or to such other person or to such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.

G. Security Deposit. Concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the sum of FIFTY-EIGHT THOUSAND SIXTY-FOUR AND 88/100 DOLLARS ($58,064.88). Said sum shall be held by Landlord as a Security Deposit for the faithful performance by Tenant of all of the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant during the Term hereof. If Tenant defaults with respect to any provision of this Lease, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to the payment of Rent and any of the monetary sums due hereunder, Landlord may (but shall not be required to) use, apply or retain all or any part of this Security Deposit for the payment of any other amount which Landlord may spend by reason of Tenant’s default or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenant’s default. If any portion of said Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall, within five (5) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord in the amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Tenant’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Landlord shall not be required to keep this Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such Deposit. If Tenant fully and faithfully performs every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term and after Tenant has vacated the Premises; provided, however, that Landlord may withhold therefrom the amount necessary to cover the cost of restoration of the Premises if Tenant fails to do so as required under Lease Paragraph 8 and to cure any then uncured default by Tenant under this Lease. In the event of termination of Landlord’s interest in this Lease, Landlord shall transfer said Deposit to Landlord’s successor in interest whereupon Tenant agrees to release Landlord from liability for the return of such Deposit or the accounting therefor. Tenant hereby waives the protection of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code.

5. RULES AND REGULATIONS AND COMMON AREA. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and such Rules and Regulations as Landlord may from time to time prescribe, Tenant and Tenant’s employees, invitees and customers shall, in common with other occupants of the Complex in which the Premises are located, and their respective employees, invitees and customers, and others entitled to the use thereof, have the non-exclusive right to use the access roads, parking areas, and facilities provided and designated by Landlord for the general use and convenience of the occupants of the Complex in which the Premises are located, which areas and facilities are referred to herein as “Common Area”. This right shall terminate upon the termination of this Lease. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make changes in the shape, size, location, amount and extent of Common Area. Landlord further reserves the right to promulgate such reasonable Rules and Regulations relating to the use of the Common Area, and any part or parts thereof, as Landlord may deem appropriate for the best interests of the occupants of the Complex. The Rules and Regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant, and Tenant shall abide by them and cooperate in their observance. Such Rules and Regulations may be amended by Landlord from time to time, with or without advance notice, and all amendments shall be effective upon delivery of a copy to Tenant. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Complex of any of said Rules and Regulations.

Landlord shall operate, manage, and maintain the Common Area. The manner in which the Common Area shall be maintained and the expenditures for such maintenance shall be at the discretion of Landlord.

6. PARKING. Tenant shall have the right to use sixty-five (65) parking spaces in the common parking areas of the Complex, which common parking area may be used by Tenant in common with other tenants or occupants of the Complex. Tenant agrees that Tenant, Tenant’s employees, agents, representatives and/or invitees shall not use parking spaces in excess of said sixty-five (65) spaces allocated to Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord’s sole discretion, to specifically designate the location of Tenant’s parking spaces within the common parking areas of the Complex in the event of a dispute among the tenants occupying the Building and/or Complex referred to herein, in which event Tenant agrees that Tenant, Tenant’s employees, agents, representatives and/or invitees shall not use any parking spaces other than those parking spaces specifically designated by Landlord for Tenant’s use. Said parking spaces, if specifically designated by Landlord to Tenant, may be relocated by Landlord at any time, and from time to time. Landlord reserves the right, at Landlord’s sole discretion, to rescind any specific designation of parking spaces, thereby returning Tenant’s parking spaces to the common parking area. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of any change in Tenant’s parking spaces. Tenant shall not, at any time, park or permit to be parked, any trucks or vehicles adjacent to the loading areas so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas, nor shall Tenant at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s trucks or other vehicles or the trucks and vehicles of Tenant’s suppliers or others, in any portion of the common area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not park nor permit to be parked, any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any portion of the common parking area or other common areas of the Complex. Tenant agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by its employees with the parking provisions contained herein. If Tenant or its employees park in other than such designated parking areas, then Landlord may charge Tenant, as an additional charge, and Tenant agrees to pay, Ten Dollars ($10.00) per day for each day or partial day each such vehicle is parked in any area other than that designated. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord at Tenant’s sole expense to tow away from the Complex any vehicle belonging to Tenant or Tenant’s employees parked in violation of these provisions, or to attach violation stickers or notices to such vehicles. Tenant shall use the parking spaces for vehicle parking only and shall not use the parking areas for storage.

If the Premises is not surrendered at the end of the Term or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from the delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding Tenant founded on such delay. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an extension of the Term hereof or as a consent of Landlord to any holding over by Tenant. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease or the Premises by Tenant or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work as a merger and, at the option of Landlord, shall either terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as an assignment to Landlord of all or any such subleases or subtenancies.

B. Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, Landlord has agreed to construct and install, at Landlord’s cost and expense, the tenant improvements specifically listed below (“Tenant Improvements”) (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Tenant shall contribute to the cost of the Tenant Improvements in the amount of $15,000.00, which Tenant shall pay to Landlord concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease), and Landlord shall not be responsible for providing any additional interior improvements:

 

  1) Remove the wall and related door as shown in Pink dashed lines on Exhibit B attached hereto;
  2) Install the walls and doors (including Landlord’s standard locking door hardware) shown in Blue on Exhibit B attached hereto, and make any necessary adjustments and/or repairs to the HVAC supplies and returns, lighting, electrical, and ceiling tiles and grid required as a result of said wall and door installation;
  3) Install the glass walls as shown in Yellow on Exhibit B attached hereto;
  4) Install Landlord’s standard grade VCT in the area shown in Green cross hatch on Exhibit B attached hereto;
  5) Landlord shall replace any non-functioning lights;

Concurrent with the installation of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord shall permit Tenant reasonably access to the Premises to install power, computer, phone and telecommunications cabling, racks, furniture, fixtures and equipment within the Premises (“Tenant Work”). The Tenant Improvements and Tenant Work referenced above shall become a part of the Premises upon installation and Tenant shall not be subject to remove the Tenant Improvements upon Lease Termination nor can Tenant remove the same without Landlord’s prior written consent.

C. Punch List: In addition to and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Paragraph 9.A above, Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date to provide Landlord with a written “punch list” pertaining to defects in the Tenant Improvements constructed by Landlord for Tenant. As soon as reasonably possible thereafter, Landlord (or one of Landlord’s representatives if so approved by Landlord), and Tenant shall conduct a joint walk-through of the Premises (if Landlord so requires), and inspect such Tenant Improvements, using their best efforts to agree on the incomplete or defective construction related to the Tenant Improvements installed for Tenant by Landlord. After such inspection has been completed, Landlord shall prepare, and both parties shall sign, a list of all “punch list” items which the parties reasonably agree are (i) to be corrected by Landlord (but which shall exclude any

damage or defects caused by Tenant, its employees, agents or parties Tenant has contracted with to work on the Premises) or (ii) if said defects and/or damaged item(s) are not material, Landlord may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to repair such item(s), but to acknowledge in written form the defect and/or damaged item(s); in which case, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in said Lease Paragraph 8 (“Acceptance and Surrender”), Tenant shall not be responsible upon Lease Termination to repair said item(s) so noted by Landlord. Landlord shall have thirty (30) days thereafter (or longer if necessary, provided Landlord is diligently pursuing the completion of the same) to complete, at Landlord’s expense, the “punch list” items without the Commencement Date of the Lease and Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent thereunder being affected. This Paragraph shall be of no force and effect if Tenant shall fail to give any such notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date of this Lease.

10. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS. Tenant shall not make, or suffer to be made, any Alterations to the Premises, or any part thereof, without the written consent of Landlord first had and obtained by Tenant; such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and such consent to Alterations shall not be valid until such time as said consent is executed by both Landlord and Tenant and a fully executed copy delivered by Landlord to Tenant (“Consent to Alterations”). Any Alteration of the Premises except moveable furniture and trade fixtures, shall at once become a part of the Premises and belong to Landlord. Any such Alterations shall be paid for one hundred percent (100%) by Tenant. Landlord reserves the right to approve all contractors and mechanics proposed by Tenant to make such Alterations. As a pre-condition to Landlord granting its consent to any Alterations, Tenant shall deliver plans and specifications for Landlord’s review and approval, and within five business days of completion of said Alterations, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an original 1/8” scaled sepia or an other electronic format as solely determined by Landlord. Tenant shall retain title to all moveable furniture and trade fixtures placed in the Premises. All heating, lighting, electrical, air conditioning, security systems, floor to ceiling partitioning, drapery, carpeting, and floor installations made by Tenant, together with all property that has become an integral part of the Premises, shall not be deemed trade fixtures. Tenant agrees that it will not proceed to make such Alterations, without having obtained consent from Landlord to do so, and until five (5) business days from the receipt of such consent, in order that Landlord may post appropriate notices to avoid any liability to contractors or material suppliers for payment for Tenant’s Alterations. Tenant will at all times permit such notices to be posted and to remain posted until the completion of work. As a condition of Landlord’s Consent to Alterations to the Premises, after Landlord provides written Consent to Alterations and prior to any work commencing on the Alterations, Tenant shall secure and provide to Landlord at Tenant’s own cost and expense, a completion and lien indemnity letters of credit, satisfactory to Landlord in the amount of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the cost to fund the original construction of any Alterations (“Letter of Credit A”) and an additional letter of credit in the amount of one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the cost to fund the subsequent cost of the removal of said Alterations and the restoration of the Premises at the Termination Date (“Letter of Credit B”). Said performance Letters of Credit shall be kept in place as follows: for Letter of Credit A, for sixty (60) days after the completion of the original construction of said Alterations; and for Letter of Credit B, the later of (a) sixty (60) days after the Termination Date or (b) sixty (60) days after the completion of the restoration work and Tenant has provided Landlord with proof of payment to respective vendors and copies of recorded full unconditional lien release related to the Alterations and/or restoration work. Tenant further covenants and agrees that any mechanic’s lien filed against the Premises for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to Tenant, will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within ten (10) days after notice of filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. Any exceptions to the foregoing must be made in writing and executed by both Landlord and Tenant.

11. TENANT MAINTENANCE. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the Premises (including appurtenances) and every part thereof in a high standard of maintenance and repair, and in good and sanitary condition. Tenant’s maintenance and repair responsibilities herein referred to include, but are not limited to, janitorization, plumbing systems within the non-common areas of the Premises (such as water and drain lines, sinks), electrical systems within the non-common areas of the Premises (such as outlets, lighting fixtures, lamps, bulbs, tubes, ballasts), heating and air-conditioning controls within the non-common areas of the Premises (such as mixing boxes, thermostats, time clocks, supply and return grills), non-common elevators (if any), and all interior improvements within the Premises including but not limited to: wall coverings, window coverings, acoustical ceilings, vinyl tile, carpeting, partitioning, doors (both interior and exterior, including closing mechanisms, latches and locks), skylights (if any), automatic fire extinguishing systems, and all other interior improvements of any nature whatsoever. Tenant agrees to provide carpet shields under all rolling chairs or to otherwise be responsible for wear and tear of the carpet caused by such rolling chairs if such wear and tear exceeds that caused by normal foot traffic in surrounding areas. Areas of excessive wear shall be replaced at Tenant’s sole expense upon Lease termination. Tenant hereby waives all rights hereunder, and benefits of, subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

12. UTILITIES OF THE BUILDING IN WHICH THE PREMISES ARE LOCATED. As Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4.D of this Lease Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share (calculated based on (i) Tenant’s Premises square footage as a percentage of the total square footage leased to Tenant and any other third party tenants in the Building or (ii) other equitable basis as calculated by Landlord) of the cost of all utility charges such as water, gas, electricity, (and telephone, telex and other electronic communications service, if applicable), sewer service, waste pick-up and any other utilities, materials or services furnished directly to the Building in which the Premises are located, including, without limitation, any temporary or permanent utility surcharge or other exactions whether or not hereinafter imposed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event any utility charges apply only to the Premises leased by Tenant, Tenant shall place such utilities in Tenant’s name and shall pay the related costs directly to the utility company(ies).

Landlord shall not be liable for and Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent by reason of any interruption or failure of utility services to the Premises when such interruption or failure is caused by accident, breakage, repair, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any nature, or by any other cause, similar or dissimilar, beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.

Landlord shall furnish to the Premises between the hours of 8:00 am and 6:00 pm, Mondays through Fridays (holidays excepted) and subject to the rules and regulations of the Common Area hereinbefore referred to, reasonable quantities of water, gas and electricity suitable for the intended use of the Premises and heat and air-conditioning required in Landlord’s judgment for the comfortable use and occupation of the Premises for such purposes. Tenant agrees that at all times it will cooperate fully with Landlord and abide by all regulations and requirements that Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the Building heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems. Whenever heat generating machines, equipment, or any other devices (including exhaust fans) are used in the Premises by Tenant which affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air-conditioning system, Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air-conditioning units in the Premises and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation and the cost of operation and maintenance thereof, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand by Landlord. Tenant will not, without the written consent of Landlord, use any apparatus or device in the Premises (including, without limitation), electronic data processing machines or machines using current in excess of 110 Volts which will in any way increase the amount of electricity, gas, water or air-conditioning usually furnished or supplied to Premises being used as general office space, or connect with electric current (except through existing electrical outlets in the Premises), or with gas or water pipes any apparatus or device for the purposes of using electric current, gas, or water. If (i) Tenant shall require water, gas, or electric current in excess of that usually furnished or supplied to Premises being used as general office space, Tenant shall first obtain the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (ii) if Tenant is found to be using water, gas and/or electrical current in excess of its Proportionate Share (as such excess usage is confirmed by a study conducted by Landlord’s contractor(s), Landlord may (a) adjust the Proportionate Share allocated to Tenant based on Tenant’s actual or estimated use or (b) cause an electric current, gas or water meter to be installed in the Premises in order to measure the amount of electric current, gas or water consumed for any such excess use. In the event Landlord questions Tenant’s usage, Landlord shall employ the services of a licensed electrical or plumbing contractor to determine what Tenant’s actual use is and Tenant shall be responsible for paying the cost related to said investigation by the licensed contractor or any other qualified third party vendor that Landlord may employ to provide such service. The cost of any such meter and of the installation, maintenance and repair thereof, all charges for such excess water, gas and electric current consumed (as shown by such meters and at the rates then charged by the furnishing public utility); and any additional expense incurred by Landlord in keeping account of electric current, gas, or water so consumed shall be paid by Tenant, and Tenant agrees to pay Landlord therefor promptly upon demand by Landlord.

13. TAXES.

A. Real Property Taxes. As Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4.D of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, monthly in advance or as they become due, pursuant to statements submitted by Landlord, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all Real Property Taxes relating to the Premises accruing with respect to the Premises during the Term of this Lease and the Extended Term (if any). The term “Real Property Taxes” shall also include supplemental taxes related to the period of Tenant’s Term whenever levied, including any such taxes that may be levied after the Term has expired. The term “Real Property Taxes”, as used herein, shall mean (i) all taxes, assessments, levies and other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever, general and special, foreseen and unforeseen (including all installments of principal and interest required to pay any general or special assessments for public improvements and any increases resulting from reassessments caused by any change in ownership of the Premises) now or hereafter imposed by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority or special district having the direct or indirect power to tax or levy assessments, which are levied or assessed against, or with respect to the

value, occupancy or use of, all or any portion of the Complex (as now constructed or as may at any time hereafter be constructed, altered, or otherwise changed) or Landlord’s interest therein; any improvements located within the Complex (regardless of ownership); the fixtures, equipment and other property of Landlord, real or personal, that are an integral part of and located in the Complex; or parking areas, public utilities, or energy within the Complex; (ii) all charges, levies or fees imposed by reason of environmental regulation or other governmental control of the Complex and (iii) all costs and fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Landlord in reasonably contesting any Real Property Tax and in negotiating with public authorities as to any Real Property Tax. If at any time during the Term of this Lease the taxation or assessment of the Complex prevailing as of the Commencement Date of this Lease shall be altered so that in lieu of or in addition to any Real Property Tax described above there shall be levied, assessed or imposed (whether by reason of a change in the method of taxation or assessment, creation of a new tax or charge, or any other cause) an alternate or additional tax or charge (i) on the value, use or occupancy of the Complex or Landlord’s interest therein or (ii) on or measured by the gross receipts, income or rentals from the Complex, on Landlord’s business of leasing the Complex, or computed in any manner with respect to the operation of the Complex, then any such tax or charge, however designated, shall be included within the meaning of the term “Real Property Taxes” for purposes of this Lease. If any Real Property Tax is based upon property or rents unrelated to the Complex, then only that part of such Real Property Tax that is fairly allocable to the Complex shall be included within the meaning of the term “Real Property Taxes.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Real Property Taxes” shall not include estate, inheritance, gift or franchise taxes of Landlord or the federal or state net income tax imposed on Landlord’s income from all sources.

B. Taxes on Tenant’s Property.

(a) Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten days before delinquency, taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant’s personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based on such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand, as the case may be, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment; provided that in any such event Tenant shall have the right, in the name of Landlord and with Landlord’s full cooperation, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of such taxes so paid under protest, and any amount so recovered shall belong to Tenant.

(b) If the Tenant improvements in the Premises, whether installed, and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which standard office improvements in other space in the Complex are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments levied against the Landlord or the Complex by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxies levied against personal property of the Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of 13B(a) above. If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether said Tenant improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than standard office space improvements in other space in the Complex, such records shall be binding on both the Landlord and the Tenant. If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for making said determination, the actual cost of construction shall be used.

14. ASSESSMENT CREDITS. The demised property herein may be subject to a special assessment levied by the City in which the Premises are located as part of an Improvement District. As a part of said special assessment proceedings (if any), additional bonds were or may be sold and assessments were or may be levied to provide for construction contingencies and reserve funds. Interest shall be earned on such funds created for contingencies and on reserve funds which will be credited for the benefit of said assessment district. To the extent surpluses are created in said district through unused contingency funds, interest earnings or reserve funds, such surpluses shall be deemed the property of Landlord. Notwithstanding that such surpluses may be credited on assessments otherwise due against the Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent if, and at the time of any such credit of surpluses, an amount equal to all such surpluses so credited. For example: if (i) the property is subject to an annual assessment of $1,000.00, and (ii) a surplus of $200.00 is credited towards the current year’s assessment which reduces the assessment amount shown on the property tax bill from $1,000.00 to $800.00, Tenant shall, upon receipt of notice from Landlord, pay to Landlord said $200.00 credit as Additional Rent.

Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, agrees to keep in force during the Term of this Lease a policy of commercial general liability insurance with combined single limit coverage of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence for injuries to or death of persons occurring in, on, or about the Premises or the Complex and property damage. Such insurance shall be primary and noncontributory as respects any insurance carried by Landlord. The policy or policies affecting such insurance, certificates of insurance of which shall be furnished to Landlord, shall name Landlord, Richard T. Peery, as Trustee of the Richard T. Peery Separate Property Trust dated July 20, 1977, as amended; the Richard T. Peery Separate Property Trust; Richard T. Peery as an individual; John Arrillaga, as Trustee under the John Arrillaga Survivor’s Trust dated July 20, 1977, as amended; the John Arrillaga Survivor’s Trust; John Arrillaga, as an individual; and any beneficiaries, trustees and successor trustees, other partners or co-venturers of Landlord or said trusts as additional insureds (collectively “Landlord Entities”), and shall insure any liability of the Landlord Entities, contingent or otherwise, as respects acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees or otherwise by any conduct or transactions of any of said persons in or about or concerning the Premises, including any failure of Tenant to observe or perform any of its obligations hereunder; shall be issued by an insurance company admitted to transact business in the State of California; and shall provide that the insurance effected thereby shall not be canceled, except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant’s insurance shall be primary as respects to the Landlord Entities, or if excess, shall stand in an unbroken chain of coverage. In either event, any other insurance maintained by the Landlord Entities shall be in excess of Tenant’s insurance and shall not be called upon to contribute with any insurance required to be provided by Tenant. A certificate of insurance of said policy shall be delivered to Landlord. If, during the Term of this Lease, in the reasonable considered opinion of Landlord’s Lender, insurance advisor, or counsel, the amount of insurance described in this Paragraph 15 is not adequate, Tenant agrees to increase said coverage to such reasonable amount as Landlord’s Lender, insurance advisor, or counsel shall deem adequate.

16. TENANT’S PERSONAL PROPERTY INSURANCE AND WORKMAN’S COMPENSATION INSURANCE. Tenant shall maintain a policy or policies of fire and property damage insurance in “all risk” form with a sprinkler leakage endorsement insuring the personal property, inventory, trade fixtures, and leasehold improvements within the Premises for the full replacement value thereof. The proceeds from any of such policies shall be used for the repair or replacement of such items so insured.

Tenant shall also maintain a policy or policies of workman’s compensation insurance and any other employee benefit insurance sufficient to comply with all laws.

17. PROPERTY INSURANCE. Landlord shall purchase and keep in force, and as Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4.D of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord (or Landlord’s agent if so directed by Landlord) Tenant’s Proportionate Share (of the deductibles on insurance claims and the cost of, policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to the Building and Complex (excluding routine maintenance and repairs and incidental damage or destruction caused by accidents or vandalism for which Tenant is responsible under Paragraph 11) in the amount of the full replacement value thereof, providing protection against those perils included within the classification of “all risks” “special form” insurance and flood and/or earthquake insurance, if available, plus a policy of rental income insurance in the amount of one hundred (100%) percent of twelve (12) months Basic Rent, plus sums paid as Additional Rent and any deductibles related thereto. If such insurance cost is increased due to Tenant’s use of the Premises or the Complex, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the full cost of such increase. Tenant shall have no interest in nor any right to the proceeds of any insurance procured by Landlord for the Complex.

In addition and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 17, each party to this Lease hereby waives all rights of recovery against the other party or its officer, employees, agents and representatives for loss or damage to its property or the property of others under its control, arising from any cause insured against under the fire and extended “special form” property coverage (excluding, however, any loss resulting from Hazardous Material contamination of the Property) required to be maintained by the terms of this Lease to the extent full reimbursement of the loss/claim is received by the insured party. Each party required to carry property insurance hereunder shall cause the policy evidencing such insurance to include a provision permitting such release of liability (“waiver of subrogation endorsement”); provided, however, that if the insurance policy of either releasing party prohibits such waiver, then this waiver shall not take effect until consent to such waiver is obtained. If such waiver is so prohibited, the insured party affected shall promptly notify the other party thereof. In the event the waivers are issued to the parties and are not valid under current policies and/or subsequent insurance policies, the non-complying party will provide, to the other party, thirty (30) days’ advance notification of the cancellation of the subrogation waiver, in which case neither party will provide such subrogation waiver thereafter and this paragraph will be null and void. The foregoing waiver of subrogation shall not include any loss resulting from Hazardous Material contamination of the Property or any insurance coverage relating thereto.

18. INDEMNIFICATION. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant hereby waives all claims against Landlord for any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property in or about the Premises or the Complex by or from any cause whatsoever, including, without limitation, gas, fire, oil, electricity or leakage of any character from the roof, walls, basement or other portion of the Premises or the Complex but excluding, however, the willful misconduct or negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants, employees, invitees or contractors of which negligence Landlord has knowledge and reasonable time to correct.

19. COMPLIANCE. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and governmental rules, regulations or requirements now or hereafter in effect governing use or occupancy of the Premises; with the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted; and with any direction or occupancy certificate issued pursuant to law by any public officer; provided, however, that no such failure shall be deemed a breach of the provisions if Tenant, immediately upon notification, commences to remedy or rectify said failure. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any action against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any such law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation, requirement, direction or provision, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any and all requirements pertaining to said Premises, of any insurance organization or company, necessary for the maintenance of reasonable fire and public liability insurance covering requirements pertaining to said Premises. The provisions of this Paragraph 19 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

20. LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Premises free from any liens arising out of any work performed, materials furnished or obligation incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following notice of the imposition of such lien, cause the same to be released of record, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but no obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid by Landlord for such purpose, and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith, shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest at the higher of the (i) prime rate of interest as quoted by the Bank of America or (ii) Landlord’s borrowing rate (the “Interest Rate”).

21. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

A. Requirements. Tenant shall not assign, transfer, or hypothecate the leasehold estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, and shall not sublet the Premises, or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or suffer any other person or entity to occupy or use the Premises, or any portion thereof, without, in each case, the prior written consent of Landlord which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the above, in the event Tenant enters into a merger and/or acquisition agreement whereby fifty percent (50%) or more of Tenant’s stock and/or assets are transferred to a third party entity (“Change in Control”), said Change in Control will require Landlord’s consent pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph 21.A, and Landlord may, at Landlord’s option, require that said acquiring entity also be named as a Tenant under this Lease. Tenant shall not sublet the Premises, or any part thereof, to more than two subtenants at any one point in time without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld at Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. Tenant’s failure to obtain Landlord’s prior written consent before entering into any such assignment, transfer and/or subletting shall be considered a default under this Lease and Landlord shall retain all of its rights under the Lease, including the right to elect, at Landlord sole and absolute discretion, to terminate either the Lease and/or the related sublease. As a condition for granting this consent to any assignment, transfer, or subletting, Landlord shall require that: (i) the sublease be a triple net sublease and that the basic rent due under any such sublease be no less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the then current market sublease rent with annual increases at the then prevailing market rent; (ii) the sublease shall require that the security deposit due under the sublease be in the form of a letter of credit drawn upon an institutional lender acceptable and accessible to Landlord in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, with the letter of credit being assignable to Landlord, at no cost to Landlord, upon notice to said financial institution of a default by Tenant under the Lease; (iii) the sublease shall not provide for subtenant to have an option to extend the term of the sublease or an option to expand the sublet space; and (iv) the Tenant shall pay to Landlord, monthly throughout the term of any approved sublease, seventy-five percent (75%) of all rents and/or additional consideration due Tenant from its assignees, transferees, or subtenants in excess of the Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder for the assigned, transferred

and/or subleased space (“Excess Rent”) (with said Excess Rent subject to the terms of Lease Paragraph 4.C (“Late Charge”) and Lease 24 (“Bankruptcy and Default”). Tenant shall, by thirty (30) days written notice, advise Landlord of its intent to assign or transfer Tenant’s interest in the Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof for any part of the Term hereof. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of said written notice, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, elect to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises described in Tenant’s notice on the date specified in Tenant’s notice by giving written notice of such election to terminate. If no such notice to terminate is given to Tenant within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant may proceed to locate an acceptable sublessee, assignee, or other transferee for presentment to Landlord for Landlord’s approval, all in accordance with the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Paragraph 21. If Tenant intends to sublet the entire Premises and Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall be terminated on the date specified in Tenant’s notice. If, however, this Lease shall terminate pursuant to the foregoing with respect to less than all the Premises, the Rent, as defined and reserved hereinabove shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis to the number of square feet retained by Tenant, and this Lease as so amended shall continue in full force and effect. In the event Tenant is allowed to assign, transfer or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, with the prior written consent of Landlord, no assignee, transferee or subtenant shall assign or transfer this Lease, either in whole or in part, or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, without also having obtained the prior written consent of Landlord. Notwithstanding the above, in no event shall Landlord consent to a sub-sublease. A consent of Landlord to one assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use by any other person shall not release Tenant from any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent similar or dissimilar assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use by any other person. Any such assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use without such consent shall be void and shall constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant and shall, at the option of Landlord exercised by written notice to Tenant, terminate this Lease. The leasehold estate under this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest therein, be assignable for any purpose by operation of law without the written consent of Landlord. As a condition to its consent, Landlord shall require Tenant to pay all expenses in connection with any and all subleases and/or assignments and/or any amendments related thereto, including but not limited to Landlord’s fees for the processing and administration of the consent documentation and Landlord’s attorneys’ fees (if any), and Landlord shall require Tenant’s subtenant, assignee or transferee (or other assignees or transferees) to assume in writing all of the obligations under this Lease and for Tenant to remain liable to Landlord under the Lease.

B. Grounds to Refuse Proposed Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant agree that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to refuse to consent to a proposed assignment, sublease or other transfer (“Proposed Transfer”) if the Premises or any other portion of the Property would become subject to additional or different Government Requirements as a direct or indirect consequence of the Proposed Transfer and/or the Proposed Transferee’s use and occupancy of the Premises and the Property. However, Landlord may, in its sole discretion, consent to such a Proposed Transfer where Landlord is indemnified by Tenant and (i) the subtenant or (ii) the assignee, in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord and/or to Landlord’s counsel, by Tenant and/or Proposed Transferee from and against any and all costs, expenses, obligations and liability arising out of the Proposed Transfer and/or the Proposed Transferee’s use and occupancy of the Premises and the Property.

C. Voluntary Termination of Lease – Required Sublease Language. Any and all sublease agreement(s) between Tenant and any and all subtenant(s) (“Subtenant”) (which agreements must be consented to by Landlord, pursuant to the requirements of this Lease) shall contain the following language:

“If Landlord and Tenant jointly and voluntarily elect, for any reason whatsoever, to terminate the Master Lease prior to the scheduled Master Lease termination date, then, if Landlord so elects, this Sublease (if then still in effect) shall terminate concurrently with the termination of the Master Lease. Subtenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that (1) the voluntary termination of the Master Lease by Landlord and Tenant and the resulting termination of this Sublease shall not give Subtenant any right or power to make any legal or equitable claim against Landlord, including without limitation any claim for interference with contract or interference with prospective economic advantage, and (2) Subtenant hereby waives any and all rights it may have under law or at equity against Landlord to challenge such an early termination of the Sublease, and unconditionally releases and relieves Landlord, and its officers, directors, employees and agents, from any and all claims, demands, and/or causes of action whatsoever (collectively, “Claims”), whether such matters are known or unknown, latent or apparent, suspected or unsuspected, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which Subtenant may have arising out of or in connection with any such early termination of this Sublease. Subtenant knowingly and intentionally waives any and all protection which is or may be given by Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with debtor.

The term of this Sublease is therefore subject to early termination. Subtenant’s initials here below evidence (a) Subtenant’s consideration of and agreement to this early termination provision, (b) Subtenant’s acknowledgment that, in determining the net benefits to be derived by Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease, Subtenant has anticipated the potential for early termination, and (c) Subtenant’s agreement to the general waiver and release of Claims above.

D. Permitted Transfers. In addition to and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Paragraph 21.A above, and provided Tenant is not in default of this Lease beyond the applicable cure period, Landlord hereby agrees to: (1) consent to Tenant’s assigning or subletting said Lease to: (i) any parent or subsidiary corporation, or corporation with which Tenant merges or consolidates provided that (a) said affiliate or successor owns all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, (b) the net worth of said parent or subsidiary corporation, or said corporation has a net worth equal to or greater than the net worth of Tenant (x) at the time of Lease execution or (y) at the time of such assignment, merger, or consolidation, whichever is greater (collectively “Permitted Transfers”), and (c) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization; or (ii) any third party or entity to whom Tenant, as an ongoing concern, sells all or substantially all of its assets; provided that (a) said affiliate or successor owns all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, (b) the net worth of the resulting or acquiring corporation has a net worth after the merger, consolidation or acquisition equal to or greater than the net worth of Tenant (x) at the time of Lease execution or (y) at the time of such merger, consolidation or acquisition, whichever is greater (collectively “Permitted Transfers”), and (c) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization; and (2) waive its right to terminate the Lease due to a Permitted Transfer. No such assignment or subletting will release the Tenant from its liability and responsibility under this Lease to the extent Tenant continues in existence following such transaction. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be required to (a) give Landlord written notice prior to such assignment or subletting to any party as described in (i) and (ii) above, (b) execute Landlord’s consent document prepared by Landlord reflecting the assignment or subletting and (c) pay Landlord’s costs for processing said Consent prior to the effective date of said assignment or sublease. Nothing herein shall be deemed to permit (i) any assignee to further assign this Lease or sublet all or any portion of the Premises or (ii) any subtenant to assign its interest in the sublease to any other party without Landlord’s prior written consent.

22. SUBORDINATION AND MORTGAGES. In the event Landlord’s title or leasehold interest is now or hereafter encumbered by a deed of trust, upon the interest of Landlord in the land and Building in which the demised Premises are located, to secure a loan from a lender (hereinafter referred to as “Lender”) to Landlord, Tenant shall, at the request of Landlord or Lender, execute in writing an agreement (in form reasonably acceptable to Tenant), subordinating its rights under this Lease to the lien of such deed of trust, or, if so requested, agreeing that the lien of Lender’s deed of trust shall be or remain subject and subordinate to the rights of Tenant under this Lease. Notwithstanding any such subordination, Tenant’s possession under this Lease shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default (and if in default, Tenant’s right to cure said default has not expired) and so long as Tenant shall pay all Rent and observe and perform all of the provisions set forth in this Lease and any subordination agreement shall reflect the agreement of the Lender to the same.

23. ENTRY BY LANDLORD. Landlord reserves, and shall at all reasonable times after at least twenty four (24) hours notice (except in emergencies) have the right to enter the Premises to inspect them; to perform any services to be provided by Landlord hereunder; to make repairs or provide any services to a contiguous tenant(s) (if any); to submit the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagers or tenants; to post notices of non-responsibility; and to alter, improve or repair the Premises and any portion of the Complex, all without abatement of Rent, and may erect scaffolding and other necessary structures in or through the Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed; provided, however that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with to the least extent that is reasonably practical. Landlord shall also have the right at any time to change the arrangement or location of entrances or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Complex and to change the name, number or designation by which the Complex is commonly known, and none of the foregoing shall be deemed an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, or shall entitle Tenant to any reduction of Rent hereunder. Any entry to the Premises by Landlord for the purposes provided for herein shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of the Premises or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof.

24. BANKRUPTCY AND DEFAULT. The commencement of a bankruptcy action or liquidation action or reorganization action or insolvency action or an assignment of or by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any similar action undertaken by Tenant, or the insolvency of Tenant, shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant. If the trustee or receiver appointed to serve during a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, insolvency or similar action elects to reject Tenant’s unexpired Lease, the trustee or receiver shall notify Landlord in writing of its election within thirty (30) days after an order for relief in a liquidation action or within thirty (30) days after the commencement of any action.

Within thirty (30) days after the court approval of the assumption of this Lease, the trustee or receiver shall cure (or provide adequate assurance to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that the trustee or receiver shall cure) any and all previous defaults under the unexpired Lease and shall compensate Landlord for all actual pecuniary loss and shall provide adequate assurance of future performance under said Lease to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord. Adequate assurance of future performance, as used herein, includes, but shall not be limited to: (i) assurance of source and payment of Rent, and other consideration due under this Lease; (ii) assurance that the assumption or assignment of this Lease will not breach substantially any provision, such as radius, location, use, or exclusivity provision, in any agreement relating to the above described Premises.

Nothing contained in this section shall affect the existing right of Landlord to refuse to accept an assignment upon commencement of or in connection with a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or insolvency action or an assignment of Tenant for the benefit of creditors or other similar act. Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as giving or granting or creating an equity in the demised Premises to Tenant. In no event shall the leasehold estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, be assigned by voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding without the prior written consent of Landlord. In no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceedings.

The failure to perform or honor any covenant, condition or representation made under this Lease shall constitute a default under this Lease by Tenant upon expiration of the appropriate grace period hereinafter provided. Tenant shall have a period of five (5) days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure any default in the payment of Rent or adjustment thereto. Tenant shall have a period of thirty (30) days from the date of written notice from Landlord within which to cure any other non-monetary default under this Lease; provided, however, that with respect to non-monetary defaults not involving Tenant’s failure to pay Basic Rent or Additional Rent, Tenant shall not be in default if (i) more than thirty (30) days is required to cure such non-monetary default and (ii) Tenant commences cure of such default as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving written notice of such default from Landlord and thereafter continuously and with due diligence prosecutes such cure to completion. Upon an uncured default of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity:

(a) The rights and remedies provided for by California Civil Code Section 1951.2 including but not limited to, recovery of the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss for the same period that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, as computed pursuant to subsection (b) of said Section 1951.2. Any proof by Tenant under subparagraphs (2) and (3) of Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code of the amount of rental loss that could be reasonably avoided shall be made in the following manner: Landlord and Tenant shall each select a licensed real estate broker in the business of renting property of the same type and use as the Premises and in the same geographic vicinity. Such two real estate brokers shall select a third licensed real estate broker, and the three licensed real estate brokers so selected shall determine the amount of the Rent loss that could be reasonably avoided from the balance of the Term of this Lease after the time of award. The decision of the majority of said licensed real estate brokers shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. As part of such damages, Landlord shall have the right to recover that portion of any leasing commission paid by Landlord in connection with this Lease applicable to the unexpired Term of this Lease.

(b) The rights and remedies provided by California Civil Code Section 1951.4, which allows Landlord to continue the Lease in effect and to enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due, for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession; acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord’s initiative to protect its interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession.

(c) The right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant in accordance with applicable law.

(d) To the extent permitted by law, the right and power to enter the Premises and remove therefrom all persons and property, to store such property in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant, and to sell such property and apply such proceeds therefrom pursuant to applicable California law. Landlord may from time to time sublet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may extend beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such Rent and such other terms as Landlord in its reasonable sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. Upon each subletting, (i) Tenant shall be immediately liable to pay Landlord, in addition to indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder, the reasonable cost of such subletting, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any real estate commissions actually paid, and the cost of such reasonable alterations and repairs incurred by Landlord and the amount, if any, by which the Rent hereunder for the period of such subletting (to the extent such period does not exceed the Term hereof) exceeds the amount to be paid as Rent for the Premises for such period or (ii) at the option of Landlord, rents received from such subletting shall be applied first to payment of indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of such subletting and of such alterations and repairs; third, to payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as the same becomes due hereunder. If Tenant has been credited with any Rent to be received by such subletting under option (i) and such Rent shall not be promptly paid to Landlord by the subtenant(s), or if such rentals received from such subletting under option (ii) during any month be less than that to be paid during the month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any such subletting without termination, Landlord may at any time hereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.

(e) The right to have a receiver appointed for Tenant upon application by Landlord, to take possession of the Premises and to apply any rental collected from the Premises and to exercise all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord pursuant to subparagraph (d) above.

25. ABANDONMENT. Tenant shall not vacate or abandon the Premises at any time during the Term of this Lease and if Tenant shall abandon, vacate or surrender said Premises, or be dispossessed by the process of law, or otherwise, any personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall be deemed to be abandoned, at the option of Landlord, except such property as may be mortgaged to Landlord. Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall not be in default under the Lease if it leaves all or any part of Premises vacant so long as (i) Tenant is performing all of its other obligations under the Lease including the obligation to pay Rent (ii) Tenant provides on-site security during normal business hours for those parts of the Premises left vacant, (iii) such vacancy does not materially and adversely affect the validity or coverage of any policy of insurance carried by Landlord with respect to the Premises, and (iv) the utilities and heating and ventilation systems are operated and maintained to the extent necessary to prevent damage to the Premises or its systems.

26. DESTRUCTION. In the event the Premises are destroyed in whole or in part from any cause, except for routine maintenance and repairs and incidental damage and destruction caused from vandalism and accidents for which Tenant is responsible under Paragraph 11, Landlord may, at its option:

(a) Rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to the damage or destruction, or

(b) Terminate this Lease (providing that the Premises is damaged to the extent of thirty-three and one third percent (33 1/3%) or more of the replacement cost, exclusive of footings, foundations and floor slabs).

If Landlord does not give Tenant notice in writing within thirty (30) days from the destruction of the Premises of its election to either rebuild and restore them, or to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall be deemed to have elected to rebuild or restore them, in which event Landlord agrees, at its expense except for any deductible, which is the responsibility of the Tenant, promptly to rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to the damage or destruction. Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction in Rent from the date of such damage or destruction, provided Tenant is not using any portion of such damaged area, while such repair is being made in the proportion that the area of the Premises rendered untenantable by such damage bears to the total area of the Premises. If Landlord initially estimates that the rebuilding or restoration will exceed 180 days or if Landlord does not complete the rebuilding or restoration within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of destruction (such period of time to be extended for delays caused by the fault or neglect of Tenant or because of Acts of God, acts of public agencies, labor disputes,

strikes, fires, freight embargos, rainy or stormy weather, inability to obtain materials, supplies or fuels, acts of contractors or subcontractors, or delay of the contractors or subcontractors due to such causes or other contingencies beyond the control of Landlord) (the “Allowed Restoration Period”), then, provided the Premises is damaged to the extent of 33 1/3% or more of the replacement cost (exclusive of footings, foundations and floor slabs), Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within five days following the date Tenant receives Landlord’s written notice stating that the restoration will exceed the Allowed Restoration Period. Regardless of whether Landlord and/or Tenant elects to terminate the Lease early as provided herein, Tenant shall remain liable for the insurance deductible as it relates to the Premises. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord’s obligation to rebuild or restore shall be limited to the Building and interior improvements constructed by Landlord as they existed as of the Commencement Date of the Lease and shall not include restoration of Tenant’s trade fixtures, equipment, merchandise, or any improvements, alterations or additions made by Tenant to the Premises, which Tenant shall forthwith replace or fully repair at Tenant’s sole cost and expense provided this Lease is not canceled according to the provisions above.

Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Tenant hereby expressly waives the provision of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, in Section 1933, Subdivision 4 of the California Civil Code.

In any event that the Building in which the Premises are situated is damaged or destroyed to the extent of not less than thirty-three and one third percent (33 1/3%) of the replacement cost thereof, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises be injured or not. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord may terminate this Lease in the event of an uninsured event or if insurance proceeds are insufficient to cover one hundred percent of the rebuilding costs net of the deductible.

Without regard to whether this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing, Tenant, upon demand by Landlord, shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the deductibles from any casualty policy Landlord carries pursuant to Paragraph 17 (“Property Insurance”).

27. EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to any portion of the Premises so taken or conveyed on the date when title vests in the condemnor, and Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payment, income, rent, award, or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with such taking or conveyance, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or otherwise for the value of any unexpired Term of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, any compensation specifically awarded Tenant for loss of business, Tenant’s personal property, moving costs or loss of goodwill, shall be and remain the property of Tenant.

If (i) any action or proceeding is commenced for such taking of the Premises or any part thereof, or if Landlord is advised in writing by any entity or body having the right or power of condemnation of its intention to condemn the Premises or any part thereof, or (ii) any of the foregoing events occur with respect to the taking of any space in the Complex not leased hereby, or if any such spaces so taken or conveyed in lieu of such taking and Landlord shall decide to discontinue the use and operation of the Complex, or decide to demolish, alter or rebuild the Complex, then in any such events Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice thereof within sixty (60) days of the date of receipt of said written advice, or commencement of said action or proceeding, or taking conveyance, which termination shall take place as of the first to occur of the last day of the calendar month next following the month in which such notice is given or the date on which title to the Premises shall vest in the condemnor.

In the event of such a partial taking or conveyance of the Premises, if the portion of the Premises taken or conveyed is so substantial that the Tenant can no longer reasonably conduct its business, Tenant shall have the privilege of terminating this Lease within sixty (60) days from the date of such taking or conveyance, upon written notice to the Landlord of its intention so to do, and upon giving of such notice this Lease shall terminate on the last day of the calendar month next following the month in which such notice is given, upon payment by Tenant of the Rent from the date of such taking or conveyance to the date of termination.

If a portion of the Premises be taken by condemnation or conveyance in lieu thereof and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall terminate this Lease as provided herein, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the part of the Premises not so taken or conveyed, and the Rent herein shall be apportioned as of the date of such taking or conveyance so that thereafter the Rent to be paid by Tenant shall be in the ratio that the area of the portion of the Premises not so taken or conveyed bears to the total area of the Premises prior to such taking.

28. SALE OR CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD. In the event of a sale or conveyance of the Premises or any interest therein, by any owner of the reversion then constituting Landlord, the transferor shall thereby be released from any further liability upon any of the terms, covenants or conditions (express or implied) herein contained in favor of Tenant, and in such event, insofar as such transfer is concerned, Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of such transferor in and to the Complex and this Lease. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale or conveyance, and Tenant agrees to attorn to the successor in interest of such transferor.

29. ATTORNMENT TO LENDER OR THIRD PARTY. In the event the interest of Landlord in the land and Building in which the Premises are located (whether such interest of Landlord is a fee title interest or a leasehold interest) is encumbered by deed of trust, and such interest is acquired by the lender or any third party through judicial foreclosure or by exercise of a power of sale at private trustee’s foreclosure sale, Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to the purchaser at any such judicial foreclosure or foreclosure sale and to recognize such purchaser as the Landlord under this Lease. In the event the lien of the deed of trust securing the loan from a Lender to Landlord is prior and paramount to the Lease, this Lease shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect for the remainder of the unexpired Term hereof, at the same rental herein reserved and upon all the other terms, conditions and covenants herein contained.

30. HOLDING OVER. Any holding over by Tenant after expiration or other termination of the Term of this Lease shall not constitute a renewal or extension of the Lease or give Tenant any rights in or to the Premises except as expressly provided in this Lease. Any holding over after the expiration or other termination of the Term of this Lease shall be construed to be a tenancy at sufferance, on the same terms and conditions herein specified insofar as applicable except that the monthly Basic Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to two hundred (200%) percent of the monthly Basic Rent required during the last month of the Term; provided, however, that the monthly Rent shall be prorated based on the actual number of days in the month for any partial month of the holding over. Holding over conduct within the meaning of the Lease and this Paragraph 30 shall also include the failure by Tenant to surrender the Premises on the Termination Date in the physical condition described in Paragraphs 8 (“Acceptance and Surrender of Premises”), 10 (“Alterations and Additions”) and 11 (“Tenant Maintenance”) and/or any Consents to Modifications/Alterations (if any) for which conduct Tenant shall be subject to the Hold Over Basic Rent under this paragraph until the Premises is restored to the condition required under this Lease. If Tenant is responsible for paying to Landlord the cost of the restoration work pursuant to Paragraph 8 (“Acceptance and Surrender of Premises”) in lieu of Tenant completing said restoration, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord, at the Basic Rent rate for the last month of the Lease Term, for the estimated time it would take to complete said restoration, regardless of whether or not Landlord elects to make such restoration to the Premises.

31. CERTIFICATE OF ESTOPPEL. Tenant shall within ten (10) days of receipt of prior written notice from Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the Basic Rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder, or specifying such defaults, if any, are claimed. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord; that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, and that not more than one month’s Basic Rent has been paid in advance.

32. CONSTRUCTION CHANGES. It is understood that the description of the Premises and the location of ductwork, plumbing and other facilities therein are subject to such minor changes as Landlord or Landlord’s architect determines to be desirable in the course of construction of the Premises, and no such changes or any changes in plans for any other portions of the Complex shall affect this Lease or entitle Tenant to any reduction of Rent hereunder or result in any liability of Landlord to Tenant. Landlord does not guarantee the accuracy of any drawings supplied to Tenant and verification of the accuracy of such drawings rests with Tenant.

33. RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM. All terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant shall be performed or observed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, or other Rent, required to be paid by it hereunder and such failure shall continue for five (5) days after written notice thereof by Landlord or shall fail to perform any other term or covenant hereunder on its part to be performed, and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by Landlord (or such longer grace period as provided under Paragraph 24), Landlord, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligation of Tenant hereunder, may, but shall not be obliged to, make any

36. NOTICES. All notices, demands, requests, advices or designations which may be or are required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be in writing.

39. CORPORATE AUTHORITY. If Tenant is a corporation (or a partnership), each individual executing this Lease on behalf of said corporation (or partnership) represents and warrants that he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of said corporation (or partnership) in accordance with the by-laws of said corporation (or partnership in accordance with the partnership agreement) and that this Lease is binding upon said corporation (or partnership) in accordance with its terms.

Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to obtain one or more credit reports on Tenant at any time, and shall execute such further authorizations as Landlord may reasonably require in order to obtain a credit report.

 

  6.5 Insurance. In addition to Tenant’s insurance required pursuant to Paragraph 15 of the Lease during the Extended Term (as the same may be further extended), Tenant shall also carry, at its sole cost and expense, the following insurance coverages: business auto liability covering owned, non-owned and hired vehicles with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 per accident; employers liability with limits of $500,000 each accident, $500,000 disease policy limit, $500,000 disease—each employee; and business interruption insurance with limit of liability representing loss of at least approximately six (6) months of income.

  6.7 Remedies.

 

  6.7.1 Paragraph 24(a) of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“(a) Terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises and recover from Tenant an award of damages equal to the sum of the following: (a) the Worth at the Time of Award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (b) the Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rent loss that Tenant affirmatively proves could have been reasonably avoided; (c) the Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rent loss that Tenant affirmatively proves could be reasonably avoided; (d) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment either proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and (e) all such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time under applicable law. The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of a per annum rate equal to: (i) the greatest per annum rate of interest permitted from time to time under applicable law, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus 5%. For purposes hereof, the “Prime Rate” shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced as its prime or base rate by a federally insured bank selected by Landlord in the State of California. The “Worth at the Time of Award” of the amount referred to in clause (c), above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus 1%.”

 

  6.7.2 Paragraph 24(b) of the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“(b) Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (“Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations”), or any successor code section.”

 

  6.8 Eminent Domain. Paragraph 27 of the Lease is hereby amended by adding the following sentence at the end of such Paragraph: “Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar or successor regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.”

 

  6.9 Tenant Improvements. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Landlord has fully performed all of its obligations pursuant to Section 9.B. and 9.C. of the Lease.

 

  6.10

Tenant Entity Name Correction. References to Tenant in the Lease as “Beceem Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation” are in error and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the definition of Tenant is as is stated in this Amendment.

 

29


 

Beceem Communications Inc., a Delaware corporation, hereby ratifies the Lease and agrees that it is bound by all terms and conditions of the Lease as of the original lease execution date, in the same manner and to the same extent as though the correct tenant name had been reflected therein.

 

  6.11 Consent. Paragraph 42 of the Original Lease is hereby deleted it its entirety and replaced by the following: “Whenever the consent of Tenant is required under this Lease, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.”

 

  6.12 Relocation of Tenant. Landlord, at its sole expense, on at least ninety (90) days prior written notice, may require Tenant to move from the Premises to other space of comparable utility, size and decor within the project in which the Building is located in order to permit Landlord to consolidate the space leased to Tenant with other adjoining space leased or to be leased to another tenant. Landlord can only exercise this provision once within the term of this lease, and during the first 60 days of such 90 day period may decline such move and, upon notice terminate the lease without penalty effective at the end of such 90 day period. In the event of any such relocation, Landlord will pay all expenses of preparing and decorating the new premises so that they will be materially equivalent to the Premises from which Tenant is moving, and Landlord shall pay Tenant’s actual costs for moving Tenant’s furniture, equipment, supplies and other personal property to the relocated premises, as well as the cost of printing and distributing change of address notices to Tenant’s customers and one month’s supply of stationery showing the new address. Landlord shall also reimburse Tenant for the actual cost associated with said move including but not limited to install and connect telecommunication and data cabling in the relocated premises in the manner and to the extent such cabling existed in the Premises prior to the relocation, relocating security systems, signage, amending contracts as required, and cost of delays related to business interruption and/or missed schedules and targets resulting from the move. In the event of a relocation, the Lease, as amended hereby, shall remain in full force and effect and thereupon be deemed applicable to such new space except that Exhibit “B” (Floor Plan) attached to the Lease shall be replaced with a revised Exhibit “B” and shall reflect the location of the new premises.

 

  6.13

Furniture. Tenant shall continue to have the right to use the furniture listed on Exhibit “C” of the Lease (the “Furniture”) during the Extended Term, at no additional cost except as hereinafter provided. Tenant agrees that the Furniture is in its “as is” condition and in good order and satisfactory condition, and that there are no representations or warranties by Landlord regarding the suitability for Tenant’s use, the condition or any other matter relating to the Furniture. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall maintain the Furniture in good condition and repair during the Extended Term and in accordance with the conditions and requirements described in any warranties issued by the manufacturer of the Furniture and delivered to Tenant. In the event of any damage to the Furniture, Tenant shall provide written notice to Landlord of such damage and Tenant shall make any and all repairs that are necessary at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. If Tenant fails to make any repairs to the Furniture for more than fifteen (15) days after notice from Landlord (although notice shall not be required if there is an emergency), Landlord may make the repairs, and Tenant shall pay the reasonable cost of the repairs to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice, together with an administrative charge in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the cost of the repairs.

 

30


 

At all times during the Term, Tenant shall cause the Furniture to be insured pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 15 of the Lease. Tenant agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease or this Section, the Furniture is owned by Landlord and, upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, all Furniture shall be returned to Landlord in the same condition as of the date of the Lease, reasonable wear and tear excepted.

 

7. Miscellaneous.

 

  7.1 This Amendment sets forth the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein. There have been no additional oral or written representations or agreements. Under no circumstances shall Tenant be entitled to any rent abatement, improvement allowance, leasehold improvements, or other work to the Premises, or any similar economic incentives that may have been provided Tenant in connection with entering into the Lease, unless specifically set forth in this Amendment.

 

  7.2 Except as herein modified or amended, the provisions, conditions and terms of the Lease shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

 

  7.3 In the case of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Lease and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control.

 

  7.4 Submission of this Amendment by Landlord is not an offer to enter into this Amendment but rather is a solicitation for such an offer by Tenant. Landlord shall not be bound by this Amendment until Landlord has executed and delivered the same to Tenant.

 

  7.5 The capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the same definitions as set forth in the Lease to the extent that such capitalized terms are defined therein and not redefined in this Amendment.

 

  7.6 Tenant hereby represents to Landlord that Tenant has dealt with no broker in connection with this Amendment other than NAIBT Commercial. Tenant agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord and the other Landlord Entities harmless from all claims of any other brokers claiming to have represented Tenant in connection with this Amendment.

 

  7.7 Each signatory of this Amendment represents hereby that he or she has the authority to execute and deliver the same on behalf of the party hereto for which such signatory is acting. Tenant hereby represents and warrants that neither Tenant, nor any persons or entities holding any legal or beneficial interest whatsoever in Tenant, are (i) the target of any sanctions program that is established by Executive Order of the President or published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”); (ii) designated by the President or OFAC pursuant to the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. § 5, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701-06, the Patriot Act, Public Law 107-56, Executive Order 13224 (September 23, 2001) or any Executive Order of the President issued pursuant to such statutes; or (iii) named on the following list that is published by OFAC: “List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.” If the foregoing representation is untrue at any time during the Extended Term, an event of default under the Lease will be deemed to have occurred, without the necessity of notice to Tenant.

 

31


  7.8 Redress for any claim against Landlord under the Lease and this Amendment shall be limited to and enforceable only against and to the extent of Landlord’s interest in the Building. The obligations of Landlord under the Lease are not intended to and shall not be personally binding on, nor shall any resort be had to the private properties of, any of its trustees or board of directors and officers, as the case may be, its investment manager, the general partners thereof, or any beneficiaries, stockholders, employees, or agents of Landlord or the investment manager, and in no case shall Landlord be liable to Tenant hereunder for any lost profits, damage to business, or any form of special, indirect or consequential damage.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Tenant have entered into and executed this Amendment as of the date first written above.
