XX. Collateral Reserve.

Section 20.1 Reserve Accounts Generally.

20.1.1 As additional security for the payment and performance by Borrower of all duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Note and the other Loan Documents, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns, conveys, pledges, mortgages, transfers, delivers, deposits, sets over and confirms unto Lender, and hereby grants to Lender a security interest in (i) the Collateral Reserve (as hereinafter defined), and any other reserve or escrow account established pursuant to the terms hereof or any other Loan Document, (ii) the accounts into which the Collateral Reserve has been deposited, (iii) all insurance on said accounts, (iv) all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles or other rights and interests pertaining thereto, (v) all sums now or hereafter therein or represented thereby, (vi) all replacements, substitutions or proceeds thereof, (vii) all instruments and documents now or hereafter evidencing the Collateral Reserve or such accounts, (viii) all powers, options, rights, privileges and immunities pertaining to the Collateral Reserve (including the right to make withdrawals therefrom), and (ix) all proceeds of the foregoing. Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the account into which the Collateral Reserve have been deposited being held in Lender’s name or the name of any entity servicing the Note for Lender and hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lender, or at Lender’s election, such servicing agent, shall have exclusive control over said account. Notice of the assignment and security interest granted to Lender herein may be delivered by Lender at any time to the financial

 

17


institution wherein the Collateral Reserve have been established, and Lender, or such servicing entity, shall have possession of all passbooks or other evidences of such accounts. Borrower hereby assumes all risk of loss with respect to amounts on deposit in the Collateral Reserve. Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the advancement of the funds from the Collateral Reserve as set forth herein is at Borrower’s direction and is not the exercise by Lender of any right of set-off or other remedy upon a Default or an Event of Default. Borrower hereby waives all right to withdraw funds from the Collateral Reserve except as provided for in this Loan Agreement. If an Event of Default shall occur hereunder or under any other of the Loan Documents Lender may, without notice or demand on Borrower, at its option: (A) withdraw any or all of the funds (including, without limitation, interest) then remaining in the Collateral Reserve and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) to the Obligations in such manner as Lender shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, and the excess, if any, shall be paid to Borrower, (B) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable Uniform Commercial Code, or (C) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. No such use or application of the funds contained in the Collateral Reserve shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default.

20.1.2 The Collateral Reserve shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Lender’s option and in Lender’s discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Lender with the general funds of Lender. The Collateral Reserve is solely for the protection of Lender and entails no responsibility on Lender’s part beyond the payment of the respective items for which they are held following receipt of bills, invoices or statements therefor in accordance with the terms hereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of this Loan Agreement by Lender, any funds in the Collateral Reserve shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Lender, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. If there is an Event of Default under this Loan Agreement or any other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, apply at any time the balance then remaining in any or all of the Collateral Reserve against the Obligations in whatever order Lender shall subjectively determine. No such application of any or all of the Collateral Reserve shall be deemed to cure any Event of Default.

Section 20.2 Collateral Reserve. As additional security for the Obligations, on or before June 29, 2010, Borrower shall either (i) deposit an amount equal to $700,000 the “Cash Deposit” into a reserve established with Lender, or (ii) deliver to Lender an irrevocable standby letter of credit number, issued by an Approved Bank in the amount of $700,000 (the “Collateral Reserve L/C”), which such standby letter of credit shall be a Letter of Credit as defined herein. If Borrower shall deliver a Collateral Reserve L/C, then Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Lender a security interest in and to the Collateral Reserve L/C and any and all proceeds which the Lender may realize from any draw on the Collateral Reserve L/C. If Borrower has delivered a Collateral Reserve L/C, then upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to draw upon the Collateral Reserve L/C and deposit the funds into a reserve established with Lender. The reserve established in connection with either (i) the Cash Deposit, or (ii) from proceeds received by Lender upon a draw of the Collateral Reserve L/C, as applicable, shall be referred to herein as the “Collateral Reserve.” Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to apply the Collateral Reserve to the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

18


If Borrower initially elects to make the Cash Deposit with Lender, then, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may at anytime upon ten (10) days prior notice to Lender substitute the same for a Collateral Reserve L/C, and upon receipt by Lender of such Collateral Reserve L/C, Lender shall return to Borrower the Cash Deposit then held by Lender.

Upon full payment of the Obligations in accordance with its terms or at such earlier time as Lender may elect, the balance of any or all of the Collateral Reserve or any Collateral Reserve L/C then in Lender’s possession shall be paid over or returned, as applicable, to Borrower and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. Upon maturity of the loan, Borrower may elect to use the funds then on deposit in the Collateral Reserve, if any, as a credit against the total amount due and payable to Lender.”

(c) No representation or warranty of Assignor made in this Agreement contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make such representations and warranties not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they are made.

25. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents contemplated to be executed herewith constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the Transfer and Substitution and shall not be amended unless such amendment is in writing and executed by each of the parties. This Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations regarding the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended, revised, waived, discharged, released or terminated orally, but only by a written instrument or instruments executed by the party against which enforcement of the amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination is asserted. Any alleged amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination which is not so documented shall not be effective as to any party.

26. Binding Effect. This Agreement and the documents contemplated to be executed in connection herewith shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not be deemed to be a consent by Lender to any further sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer of the Property or any interest therein, except as may be specifically permitted in the Loan Documents, as modified hereby.

27. Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will be an original, but all of which, taken together, will constitute one and the same Agreement.

28. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State where the Property is located.

29. Effective Date. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date of its execution and delivery by the parties hereto and thereupon is incorporated into the terms of the Loan Documents, and shall modify the Loan Documents as expressly provided herein.

ARTICLE 2

TERM/PREMISES

The Term of this Lease shall commence on the Commencement Date as set forth in Article 1.A. of the Basic Lease Provisions and shall end on the Expiration Date set forth in Article 1.A. of the Basic Lease Provisions. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Term, with the first (1st) Lease Year commencing on the Commencement Date; however, (a) if the Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first (1st ) day of a calendar month, the first (1st) Lease Year shall end on the last day of the eleventh (11th) month after the Commencement Date and the second (2 nd) and each succeeding Lease Year shall commence on the first (1st) day of the next calendar month, and (b) the last Lease Year shall end on the Expiration Date. If Landlord does not deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the estimated Commencement Date (as set forth in Article 1.A, above), Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for its failure to do so, and such failure shall not affect the validity of this Lease nor the obligations of Tenant hereunder. Landlord and Tenant hereby stipulate that the Premises contains the number of square feet specified in Article 1.B. of the Basic Lease Provisions, except that the rentable and usable square feet of the Premises and the Project are subject to verification from time to time by Landlord’s architect/space planner. In the event that Landlord’s architect/space planner determines that the amounts thereof shall be different from those set forth in this Lease, all amounts, percentages and figures appearing or referred to in this Lease based upon such incorrect amount (including, without limitation, the amount of the Basic Rental, Tenant’s Proportionate Share [ADD IF APPLICABLE: , and the “Improvement Allowance”, as that term is defined in Section 2 of the Tenant Work Letter)] shall be modified in accordance with such determination. If such determination is made, it will be confirmed in writing by Landlord to Tenant. Landlord may deliver to Tenant a Commencement Letter in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit “C”, which Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within five (5) days of receipt thereof. Failure of Tenant to timely execute and deliver the Commencement Letter shall constitute acknowledgment by Tenant that the statements included in such notice are true and correct, without exception.

ARTICLE 3

RENTAL

(a) Basic Rental. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord during the Term hereof, at Landlord’s office or to such other person or at such other place as directed from time to time by written notice to Tenant from Landlord, the monthly and annual sums as set forth in Article 1.C. of the Basic Lease Provisions, payable in advance on the first (1st) day of each calendar month, without demand, setoff or deduction, and in the event this Lease commences or the date of expiration of this Lease occurs other than on the first (1st) day or last day of a calendar month, the rent for such month shall be prorated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the first full month’s Basic Rental shall be paid to Landlord in accordance with Article 1.J. of the Basic Lease

 

2


Provisions and, if the Commencement Date is not the first day of a month, Basic Rental for the partial month commencing as of the Commencement Date shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days in such month and shall be due and payable upon the Commencement Date. Any and all amounts due and payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease (other than Basic Rental and the Security Deposit) shall be deemed “Additional Rent and Landlord shall be entitled to exercise the same rights and remedies upon default in these payments as Landlord is entitled to exercise with respect to defaults in monthly Basic Rental payments. Basic Rental and Additional Rental are sometimes herein collectively referred to as “Rental”.

(b) Increase in Direct Costs. The term “Base Year means the calendar year set forth in Article 1.D. of the Basic Lease Provisions. In the event either the Premises and/or the Project is expanded or reduced, then Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be appropriately adjusted, and as to the calendar year in which such change occurs, Tenant’s Proportionate Share for such calendar year shall be determined on the basis of the number of days during that particular calendar year that such Tenant’s Proportionate Share was in effect. In the event this Lease shall terminate on any date other than the last day of a calendar year, the additional sum payable hereunder by Tenant during the calendar year in which this Lease terminates shall be prorated on the basis of the relationship which the number of days which have elapsed from the commencement of said calendar year to and including said date on which this Lease terminates bears to three hundred sixty five (365).

(c) Definitions. As used herein the term “Direct Costs” shall mean the sum of the following:

(i) “Tax Costs”, which shall mean any and all real estate taxes and other similar charges on real property or improvements, assessments, water and sewer charges, and all other charges assessed, reassessed or levied upon the Project and appurtenances thereto and the parking or other facilities thereof, or the real property thereunder (collectively the “Real Property”) or attributable thereto or on the rents, issues, profits or income received or derived therefrom which are assessed, reassessed or levied by the United States, the State of California or any local government authority or agency or any political subdivision thereof, and shall include Landlord’s reasonable legal fees, costs and disbursements incurred in connection with proceedings for reduction of Tax Costs or any part thereof; provided, however, if at any time after the date of this Lease the methods of taxation now prevailing shall be altered so that in lieu of or as a supplement to or a substitute for the whole or any part of any Tax Costs, there shall be assessed, reassessed or levied (a) a tax, assessment, reassessment, levy, imposition or charge wholly or partially as a net income, capital or franchise levy or otherwise on the rents, issues, profits or income derived therefrom, or (b) a tax, assessment, reassessment, levy (including but not limited to any municipal, state or federal levy), imposition or charge measured by or based in whole or in part upon the Real Property and imposed upon Landlord, then except to the extent such items are payable by Tenant under Article 6 below, such taxes, assessments, reassessments or levies or the part thereof so measured or based, shall be deemed to be included in the term “Direct Costs.” In no event shall Tax Costs included in Direct Costs for any year subsequent to the Base Year be less than the amount of Tax Costs included in Direct Costs for the Base Year. In addition, when calculating Tax Costs for the Base Year, special assessments shall only be deemed included in Tax Costs for the Base Year to the extent that such special assessments are included in Tax Costs for the applicable subsequent calendar year during the Term.

(ii) “Operating Costs”, which shall mean all costs and expenses paid or incurred by Landlord in connection with the maintenance, operation, replacement, ownership and repair of the Project, the equipment, the intrabuilding cabling and wiring, adjacent walks, malls and landscaped and common areas and the parking structure, areas and facilities of the Project. Operating Costs shall include but not be limited to, salaries, wages, medical, surgical and general welfare benefits and pension payments, payroll taxes, fringe benefits, employment taxes, workers’ compensation, uniforms and dry cleaning thereof for all persons who perform duties connected with the operation, maintenance and repair of the Project, its equipment, the intrabuilding cabling and wiring and the adjacent walks and landscaped areas, including janitorial, gardening, security, parking, operating engineer, elevator, painting, plumbing, electrical, carpentry, heating, ventilation, air conditioning and window washing; hired services; a reasonable allowance for depreciation of the cost of acquiring or the rental expense of personal property used in the maintenance, operation and repair of the Project; accountant’s fees incurred in the preparation of rent adjustment statements (including, without limitation, bookkeeping and other property accounting costs); legal fees; real estate tax consulting fees; personal property

 

3


taxes on property used in the maintenance and operation of the Project; fees, costs, expenses or dues payable pursuant to the terms of any covenants, conditions or restrictions or owners’ association pertaining to the Project; capital expenditures incurred to effect economies of operation of, or stability of services to, the Project or otherwise incurred in order to enhance or upgrade the safety, security, fire/life/safety or other operating systems of the Project, and capital expenditures required by government regulations, laws, or ordinances including, but not limited to the Americans with Disabilities Act; provided however that any such permitted capital expenditure shall be amortized (with interest at ten percent (10%) per annum) over its useful life and only the amortized portion (together with accrued interest thereon) shall be included in Operating Costs for such year; costs incurred (capital or otherwise) on a regular recurring basis every three (3) or more years for certain maintenance projects (e.g., parking lot slurry coat or replacement of lobby and elevator cab carpeting); the cost of all charges for electricity, gas, water and other utilities furnished to the Project, including any taxes thereon; the cost of all charges for fire and extended coverage, liability and all other insurance in connection with the Project carried by Landlord; the cost of all building and cleaning supplies and materials; the cost of all charges for cleaning, maintenance and service contracts and other services with independent contractors and administration fees; a property management fee (which fee may be imputed if Landlord has internalized management or otherwise acts as its own property manager) and license, permit and inspection fees relating to the Project. In the event, during any calendar year, the Project is less than ninety-five percent (95%) occupied at all times, Operating Costs shall be adjusted to reflect the Operating Costs of the Project as though ninety-five percent (95%) were occupied at all times, and the increase or decrease in the sums owed hereunder shall be based upon such Operating Costs as so adjusted. In no event shall costs for any item of utilities included in Direct Costs for any year subsequent to the Base Year be less than the amount included in Direct Costs for the Base Year for such utility item. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Article 3, when calculating Operating Costs for the Base Year, Operating Costs shall exclude (a) increases due to extraordinary circumstances including, but not limited to, labor-related boycotts and strikes, utility rate hikes, utility conservation surcharges, or other surcharges, insurance premiums resulting from terrorism coverage, catastrophic events and/or the management of environmental risks, and (b) amortization of any capital items including, but not limited to, capital improvements, capital repairs and capital replacements (including such amortized costs where the actual improvement, repair or replacement was made in prior years). Furthermore, if a category or categories of services are provided or an unexpected increase in services are provided by Landlord in the Base Year, but not in “subsequent” calendar year(s), the Base Year shall be retroactively adjusted to reflect the Direct Costs which would have been incurred during the Base Year had such category or categories of services or unexpected increase in services not been provided during the Base Year.

(d) Determination of Payment.

(i) If for any calendar year ending or commencing within the Term, Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Direct Costs for such calendar year exceeds Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Direct Costs for the Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Sections 3(d)(ii) and (iii), below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the “Excess”).

(ii) Landlord shall give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the “Estimate Statement”) which shall set forth Landlord’s reasonable estimate (the “Estimate”) of what the total amount of Direct Costs for the then-current calendar year shall be and the estimated Excess (the “Estimated Excess) as calculated by comparing Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Direct Costs for such calendar year, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Direct Costs for the Base Year. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any calendar year shall not preclude Landlord from subsequently enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Excess under this Article 3, once such Estimated Excess has been determined by Landlord. If pursuant to the Estimate Statement an Estimated Excess is calculated for the then-current calendar year, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Monthly Basic Rental due, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current calendar year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 3(d)(ii)). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current calendar year to the month of such payment, both months inclusive, and shall have twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished, Tenant shall pay monthly, with the Monthly Basic Rental installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.

 

4


(iii) In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant as soon as reasonably practicable following the end of each calendar year, a statement (the “Statement”) which shall state the Direct Costs incurred or accrued for such preceding calendar year, and which shall indicate the amount, if any, of the Excess. Upon receipt of the Statement for each calendar year during the Term, if amounts paid by Tenant as Estimated Excess are less than the actual Excess as specified on the Statement, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of monthly Basic Rental due, the full amount of the Excess for such calendar year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such calendar year as Estimated Excess. If, however, the Statement indicates that amounts paid by Tenant as Estimated Excess are greater than the actual Excess as specified on the Statement, such overpayment shall be credited against Tenant’s next installments of Estimated Excess. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any calendar year shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights under this Article 3, once such Statement has been delivered. Even though the Term has expired or been terminated and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Direct Costs for the calendar year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall immediately pay to Landlord an amount as calculated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(d). The provisions of this Section 3(d)(iii) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.

(iv) If the Project is a part of a multi-building development (the “Development”), those Direct Costs attributable to such development as a whole (and not attributable solely to any individual building therein) shall be allocated by Landlord to the Project and to the other buildings within such development on an equitable basis, as reasonably determined by Landlord.

(e) Audit Right. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a Statement by Tenant (“Review Period”), if Tenant disputes the amount set forth in the Statement, Tenant’s employees or an independent certified public accountant (which accountant is a member of a nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm and is not retained on a contingency fee basis), designated by Tenant, may, after reasonable notice to Landlord (“Review Notice”) and at reasonable times, inspect Landlord’s records at Landlord’s offices, provided that Tenant is not then in default after expiration of all applicable cure periods and provided further that Tenant and such accountant or representative shall, and each of them shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause their respective agents and employees to, maintain all information contained in Landlord’s records in strict confidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall only have the right to review Landlord’s records one (1) time during any twelve (12) month period. If after such inspection, but within thirty (30) days after the Review Period, Tenant notifies Landlord in writing (“Dispute Notice”) that Tenant still disputes such amounts, a certification as to the proper amount shall be made in accordance with Landlord’s standard accounting practices, at Tenant’s expense, by an independent certified public accountant selected by Landlord and who is a member of a nationally or regionally recognized accounting firm. Tenant’s failure to deliver the Review Notice within the Review Period or to deliver the Dispute Notice within thirty (30) days after the Review Period shall be deemed to constitute Tenant’s approval of such Statement and Tenant, thereafter, waives the right or ability to dispute the amounts set forth in such Statement. If Tenant timely delivers the Review Notice and the Dispute Notice, Landlord shall cooperate in good faith with Tenant and the accountant to show Tenant and the accountant the information upon which the certification is to be based. However, if such certification by the accountant proves that the Direct Costs charged to Tenant, as set forth in the Statement were overstated by more than ten percent (10%), then the cost of the accountant and the cost of such certification shall be paid for by Landlord, provided that in no event shall Landlord be responsible for costs hereunder in excess of the amount of such overstatement. Promptly following the parties receipt of such certification, the parties shall make such appropriate payments or reimbursements, as the case may be, to each other, as are determined to be owing pursuant to such certification.

If Tenant breaches any provision of this Lease, including but not limited to the payment of rent, Landlord may use all or any part of this security deposit for the payment of any rent or any other sums in 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 an amount sufficient to restore the security deposit to its full amount. [INCLUDE ONLY IF IT IS INTENDED THAT THE SECURITY DEPOSIT INCREASE OVER THE TERM OF THE LEASE: If monthly Basic Rental is increased, the amount of the security deposit required to be maintained by Tenant shall also be increased so as to maintain, at all times and from time to time, the same ratio to monthly Basic Rental as applicable on the Commencement Date.] [IF PRIOR SENTENCE NOT INCLUDED, ADD FOLLOWING: During any renewal or extension of the Term, the amount of the security deposit required to be maintained by Tenant shall be increased so as to maintain, at all times and from time to time, the same ratio to monthly Basic Rental as applicable on the Commencement Date.] Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be required to keep the security deposit in trust, segregate it or keep it separate from Landlord’s general funds, but Landlord may commingle the security deposit with its general funds and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. At the expiration of the Term, and provided there exists no default by Tenant hereunder, the security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to Tenant’s “Transferee”, as such term is defined in Article 15 below), provided that subsequent to the expiration of this Lease, Landlord may retain from said security deposit (i) an amount reasonably estimated by Landlord to cover potential Direct Cost reconciliation payments due with respect to the calendar year in which this Lease terminates or expires (such amount so retained shall not, in any event, exceed ten percent (10%) of estimated Direct Cost payments due from Tenant for such calendar year through the date of expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and any amounts so retained and not applied to such reconciliation shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s delivery of the Statement for such calendar year), (ii) any and all amounts reasonably estimated by Landlord to cover the anticipated costs to be incurred by Landlord to remove any signage provided to Tenant under this Lease, to remove cabling and other items required to be removed by Tenant under Section 29(b) below and to repair any damage caused by such removal (in which case any excess amount so retained by Landlord shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after such removal and repair), and (iii) any and all amounts permitted by law or this Article 4. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which provide that Landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Article 4 above, and all of Landlord’s damages under this Lease and California law including, but not limited to, any damages accruing upon termination of this Lease under Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code and/or those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage, foreseeable or unforeseeable, caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant or any officer, employee, agent, contractor or invitee of Tenant.

Tenant agrees to pay Landlord forthwith upon demand the amount of any increase in premiums for insurance that may be carried during the Term of this Lease, or the amount of insurance to be carried by Landlord on the Project resulting from the foregoing, or from Tenant doing any act in or about the Premises that does so increase the insurance rates, whether or not Landlord shall have consented to such act on the part of Tenant. If Tenant installs upon the Premises any electrical equipment which causes an overload of electrical lines of the Premises, Tenant shall at its own cost and expense, in accordance with all other Lease provisions (specifically including, but not limited to, the provisions of Articles 9, 10 and 11 hereof), make whatever changes are necessary to comply with requirements of the insurance underwriters and any governmental authority having jurisdiction thereover, but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to constitute Landlord’s consent to such overloading. Tenant shall, at its own expense, comply with all insurance requirements applicable to the Premises including, without limitation, the installation of fire extinguishers or an automatic dry chemical extinguishing system.

ARTICLE 15

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

Tenant shall have no power to, either voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, sell, assign, transfer or hypothecate this Lease, or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used or occupied by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant’s employees without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If Tenant is a corporation, unincorporated association, partnership or limited liability company, the sale, assignment, transfer or hypothecation of any class of stock or other ownership interest in such corporation, association, partnership or limited liability company in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) in the aggregate shall be deemed a “Transfer” within the meaning and provisions of this Article 15. Tenant may transfer its interest pursuant to this Lease only upon the following express conditions, which conditions are agreed by Landlord and Tenant to be reasonable:

(a) That the proposed Transferee (as hereafter defined) shall be subject to the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld but, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to deny such consent if:

(i) The use to be made of the Premises by the proposed Transferee is (a) not generally consistent with the character and nature of all other tenancies in the Project, or (b) a use which conflicts with any so-called “exclusive” then in favor of, or for any use which might reasonably be expected to diminish the rent payable pursuant to any percentage rent lease with another tenant of the Project or any other buildings which are in the same complex as the Project, or (c) a use which would be prohibited by any other portion of this Lease (including but not limited to any Rules and Regulations then in effect);

(ii) The financial responsibility of the proposed Transferee is not reasonably satisfactory to Landlord or in any event not at least equal to those which were possessed by Tenant as of the date of execution of this Lease;

(iii) The proposed Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;

(iv) Either the proposed Transferee or any person or entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the proposed Transferee (A) occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent, or (B) is negotiating with Landlord or has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6) month period immediately preceding the date of the proposed Transfer, to lease space in the Project; or

(v) The rent charged by Tenant to such Transferee during the term of such Transfer, calculated using a present value analysis, is less than the rent being quoted by Landlord at the time of such Transfer for comparable space in the Project for a comparable term, calculated using a present value analysis.

 

14


(b) Upon Tenant’s submission of a request for Landlord’s consent to any such Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Landlord’s then standard processing fee and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the proposed Transfer, which the parties hereby stipulate to be $3,000.00, unless Landlord provides to Tenant evidence that Landlord has incurred greater costs in connection with the proposed Transfer;

(c) That the proposed Transferee shall execute an agreement pursuant to which it shall agree to perform faithfully and be bound by all of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements of this Lease applicable to that portion of the Premises so transferred; and

(d) That an executed duplicate original of said assignment and assumption agreement or other Transfer on a form reasonably approved by Landlord, shall be delivered to Landlord within five (5) days after the execution thereof, and that such Transfer shall not be binding upon Landlord until the delivery thereof to Landlord and the execution and delivery of Landlord’s consent thereto. It shall be a condition to Landlord’s consent to any subleasing, assignment or other transfer of part or all of Tenant’s interest in the Premises (“Transfer”) that (i) upon Landlord’s consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall pay and continue to pay seventy-five percent (75%) of any “Transfer Premium” (defined below), received by Tenant from the transferee; (ii) any sublessee of part or all of Tenant’s interest in the Premises shall agree that in the event Landlord gives such sublessee notice that Tenant is in default under this Lease, such sublessee shall thereafter make all sublease or other payments directly to Landlord, which will be received by Landlord without any liability whether to honor the sublease or otherwise (except to credit such payments against sums due under this Lease), and any sublessee shall agree to attorn to Landlord or its successors and assigns at their request should this Lease be terminated for any reason, except that in no event shall Landlord or its successors or assigns be obligated to accept such attornment; (iii) any such Transfer and consent shall be effected on forms supplied by Landlord and/or its legal counsel; (iv) Landlord may require that Tenant not then be in default hereunder in any respect; and (v) Tenant or the proposed subtenant or assignee (collectively, “Transferee”) shall agree to pay Landlord, upon demand, as Additional Rent, a sum equal to the additional costs, if any, incurred by Landlord for maintenance and repair as a result of any change in the nature of occupancy caused by such subletting or assignment. “Transfer Premium” shall mean all rent, Additional Rent or other consideration payable by a Transferee in connection with a Transfer in excess of the Basic Rental and Direct Costs payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer and if such Transfer is for less than all of the Premises, the Transfer Premium shall be calculated on a rentable square foot basis. The calculation of “Transfer Premium” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by a Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to the Transferee and any payment in excess of fair market value for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to the Transferee in connection with such Transfer. Any Transfer of this Lease which is not in compliance with the provisions of this Article 15 shall be voidable by written notice from Landlord and shall, at the option of Landlord, terminate this Lease. In no event shall the consent by Landlord to any Transfer be construed as relieving Tenant or any Transferee from obtaining the express written consent of Landlord to any further Transfer, or as releasing Tenant from any liability or obligation hereunder whether or not then accrued and Tenant shall continue to be fully liable therefor. No collection or acceptance of rent by Landlord from any person other than Tenant shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 15 or the acceptance of any Transferee hereunder, or a release of Tenant (or of any Transferee of Tenant). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under this Article 15 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 15, their sole remedies shall be a declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought without any monetary damages, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 15, Landlord shall have the option, by giving written notice to Tenant (“Landlord’s Recapture Notice”) within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of a request for consent to a proposed Transfer, to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises that is the subject of the proposed Transfer (hereinafter, the “Recapture Space”). If this Lease is so terminated with respect to less than the entire Premises, (i) the Basic Rental and Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be prorated based on

 

15


the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant as compared to the total number of rentable square feet previously contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon the request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same, and (ii) Tenant shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection with separately demising the Recapture Space separate and apart from the balance of the Premises, including without limitation, all ductwork, systems work, demising wall installation and compliance with governmental requirements relating thereto (“Landlord’s Recapture Costs”). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s Recapture Costs within three (3) business days following written demand therefor from Landlord. The effective date of any such termination shall be set forth in Landlord’s Recapture Notice.

ARTICLE 16

DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

If the Project is damaged by fire or other insured casualty and the insurance proceeds have been made available therefor by the holder or holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust covering the Premises or the Project, the damage shall be repaired by Landlord to the extent such insurance proceeds are available therefor and provided such repairs can, in Landlord’s sole opinion, be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the necessity for repairs as a result of such damage becomes known to Landlord, without the payment of overtime or other premiums, and until such repairs are completed rent shall be abated in proportion to the part of the Premises which is unusable by Tenant in the conduct of its business (but there shall be no abatement of rent by reason of any portion of the Premises being unusable for a period equal to one (1) day or less). However, if the damage is due to the fault or neglect of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, guests, invitees and the like, there shall be no abatement of rent, unless and to the extent Landlord receives rental income insurance proceeds. Upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Section 14(a)(ii)(A) above; provided, however, that if the cost of repair of improvements within the Premises by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant’s insurance carrier, as so assigned by Tenant, such excess costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord’s repair of such damage. If repairs cannot, in Landlord’s opinion, be completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the necessity for repairs as a result of such damage becomes known to Landlord without the payment of overtime or other premiums, Landlord may, at its option, either (i) make such repairs in a reasonable time and in such event this Lease shall continue in effect and the Basic Rental shall be abated, if at all, in the manner provided in this Article 16, or (ii) elect not to effect such repairs and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after Landlord learns of the necessity for repairs as a result of damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises. In addition, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease if the Project shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, whether or not the Premises are affected, if the damage is not fully covered, except for deductible amounts, by Landlord’s insurance policies. Finally, if the Premises or the Project is damaged to any substantial extent during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, then notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 16 to the contrary, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Tenant of the exercise of such option within sixty (60) days after Landlord learns of the necessity for repairs as the result of such damage. A total destruction of the Project shall automatically terminate this Lease. Except as provided in this Article 16, there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant’s business or property arising from such damage or destruction or the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Project or the Premises or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment therein. Tenant understands that Landlord will not carry insurance of any kind on Tenant’s furniture, furnishings, trade fixtures or equipment, and that Landlord shall not be obligated to repair any damage thereto or replace the same. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant shall have no right to any proceeds of insurance carried by Landlord relating to property damage. With respect to any damage which Landlord is obligated to repair or elects to repair, Tenant, as a material inducement to Landlord entering into this Lease, irrevocably waives and releases its rights under the provisions of Sections 1932 and 1933 of the California Civil Code.

ARTICLE 17

SUBORDINATION

This Lease is subject to and Tenant agrees to comply with all matters of record affecting the Real Property. This Lease is also subject and subordinate to all ground or underlying leases, mortgages and deeds of trust which affect the Real Property, as well as all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof; provided, however, if the lessor under any such lease or the holder or holders of any such mortgage or deed of trust shall advise Landlord that they desire or require this Lease to be prior and superior thereto, upon written request of Landlord to Tenant, Tenant agrees to promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all documents or instruments which Landlord or such lessor, holder or holders deem necessary or desirable for purposes thereof. Landlord shall have the right to cause this Lease to be and become and remain subject and subordinate to any and all ground or underlying leases, mortgages or deeds of trust which may hereafter be executed covering the Premises, the Project or the property or any renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements or extensions thereof, for the full amount of all advances made or to be made thereunder and without regard to the time or character of such advances, together with interest thereon and subject to all the terms and provisions thereof; provided, however, that Landlord obtains from the lender or other party in question a written undertaking in favor of Tenant to the effect that such lender or other party will not disturb Tenant’s right of possession under this Lease if Tenant is not then or thereafter in breach of any covenant or provision of this Lease. Tenant agrees, within ten (10) days after Landlord’s written request therefor, to execute, acknowledge and deliver upon request any and all documents or instruments requested by Landlord or necessary or proper to assure the subordination of this Lease to any such mortgages, deed of trust, or leasehold estates (hereinafter, a “SNDA”). If Tenant fails to timely deliver an executed SNDA to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Article 17, then without limiting any other rights or remedies of Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant an amount equal to Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) per day for each day thereafter until Tenant delivers to Landlord a SNDA pursuant to the terms hereof. Tenant agrees that in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any mortgage or deed of trust or any deed in lieu thereof, to attorn to the purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof as so requested to do so by such purchaser and to recognize such purchaser as the lessor under this Lease; Tenant shall, within five (5) days after request execute such further instruments or assurances as such purchaser may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm such attornment. Tenant agrees to provide copies of any notices of Landlord’s default under this Lease to any mortgagee or deed of trust beneficiary whose address has been provided to Tenant and Tenant shall provide such mortgagee or deed of trust beneficiary a commercially reasonable time after receipt of such notice within which to cure any such default. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale.

ARTICLE 18

EMINENT DOMAIN

If the whole of the Premises or the Project or so much thereof as to render the balance unusable by Tenant shall be taken under power of eminent domain, or is sold, transferred or conveyed in lieu thereof, this Lease shall automatically terminate as of the date of such condemnation, or as of the date possession is taken by the condemning authority, at Landlord’s option. No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant now or hereafter arising in or to the same or any part thereof; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in or to require Tenant to assign to Landlord any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and trade fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant at the expiration of the Term hereof as provided hereunder or for the interruption of, or damage to, Tenant’s business. In the event of a partial taking described in this Article 18, or a sale, transfer or conveyance in lieu thereof, which does not result in a termination of this Lease, the rent shall be apportioned according to the ratio that the part of the Premises remaining useable by Tenant bears to the total area of the Premises. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

 

17


ARTICLE 19

DEFAULT

Each of the following acts or omissions of Tenant or of any guarantor of Tenant’s performance hereunder, or occurrences, shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

(a) Failure or refusal to pay Basic Rental, Additional Rent or any other amount to be paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder within three (3) calendar days after notice that the same is due or payable hereunder; said three (3) day period shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the notice requirements of Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar or successor law;

(b) Except as set forth in items (a) above and (c) through and including (g) below, failure to perform or observe any other covenant or condition of this Lease to be performed or observed within thirty (30) days following written notice to Tenant of such failure. Such thirty (30) day notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any required under Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or any similar or successor law;

(c) Abandonment or vacating or failure to accept tender of possession of the Premises or any significant portion thereof;

(d) The taking in execution or by similar process or law (other than by eminent domain) of the estate hereby created; (e) The filing by Tenant or any guarantor hereunder in any court pursuant to any statute of a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or arrangement for the appointment of a receiver of all or a portion of Tenant’s property; the filing against Tenant or any guarantor hereunder of any such petition, or the commencement of a proceeding for the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator for Tenant, or for any guarantor hereunder, or of any of the property of either, or a proceeding by any governmental authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant or any guarantor hereunder, if such proceeding shall not be dismissed or trusteeship discontinued within thirty (30) days after commencement of such proceeding or the appointment of such trustee or receiver; or the making by Tenant or any guarantor hereunder of an assignment for the benefit of creditors. Tenant hereby stipulates to the lifting of the automatic stay in effect and relief from such stay for Landlord in the event Tenant files a petition under the United States Bankruptcy laws, for the purpose of Landlord pursuing its rights and remedies against Tenant and/or a guarantor of this Lease;

(f) Tenant’s failure to cause to be released any mechanics liens filed against the Premises or the Project within twenty (20) days after the date the same shall have been filed or recorded;

(g) Tenant’s failure to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 7, 14, 17, 25 or 28 within two (2) business days after notice from Landlord; or

(h) A default by Tenant or any entity owned or controlled by or otherwise affiliated with Tenant under any other lease with Landlord or any affiliate of Landlord.

All defaults by Tenant of any covenant or condition of this Lease shall be deemed by the parties hereto to be material.

ARTICLE 20

REMEDIES

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Lease as provided in Article 19 hereof, Landlord may exercise all of its remedies as may be permitted by law, including but not limited to the remedy provided by Section 1951.4 of the California Civil Code, and including without limitation, terminating this Lease, reentering the Premises and removing all persons and property therefrom, which property may be stored by Landlord at a warehouse or elsewhere at the risk, expense and for the account of Tenant. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant the aggregate of all amounts permitted by law, including but not limited to (i) the worth at the time of award of the amount of any

 

18


unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus (ii) 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 rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited to, tenant improvement expenses, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and (v) at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law. The term “rent” as used in this Section 20(a) shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others. As used in items (i) and (ii), above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate set forth in item (e), below, but in no case greater than the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law. As used in item (iii), above, the “worth at the time of award” 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 one percent (1%).

(b) Nothing in this Article 20 shall be deemed to affect Landlord’s right to indemnification for liability or liabilities arising prior to the termination of this Lease for personal injuries or property damage under the indemnification clause or clauses contained in this Lease.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Landlord’s re-entry to perform acts of maintenance or preservation of or in connection with efforts to relet the Premises or any portion thereof, or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises or any portion thereof and, until Landlord does elect to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies hereunder including, without limitation, the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.

(d) All rights, powers and remedies of Landlord hereunder and under any other agreement now or hereafter in force between Landlord and Tenant shall be cumulative and not alternative and shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to Landlord by law, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not impair Landlord’s right to exercise any other right or remedy.

(e) Any amount due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the lower of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the maximum lawful rate of interest from the due date until paid, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Tenant under this Lease. In addition to such interest: (i) if Rental is not paid on or before the fifth (5th) day of the calendar month for which the same is due, a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount overdue or $100, whichever is greater, shall be immediately due and owing and shall accrue for each calendar month or part thereof until such rental, including the late charge, is paid in full, which late charge Tenant hereby agrees is a reasonable estimate of the damages Landlord shall suffer as a result of Tenant’s late payment and (ii) an additional charge of $25 shall be assessed for any check given to Landlord by or on behalf of Tenant which is not honored by the drawee thereof; which damages include Landlord’s additional administrative and other costs associated with such late payment and unsatisfied checks and the parties agree that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix Landlord’s actual damage in such event. Such charges for interest and late payments and unsatisfied checks are separate and cumulative and are in addition to and shall not diminish or represent a substitute for any or all of Landlord’s rights or remedies under any other provision of this Lease.

 

19


(f) Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease unless Landlord fails to perform obligations required of Landlord within sixty (60) days after written notice is delivered by Tenant to Landlord and to the holder of any mortgages or deeds of trust (collectively, “Lender”) covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Tenant in writing, specifying the obligation which Landlord has failed to perform; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than sixty (60) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord or Lender commences performance within such sixty (60) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.

(g) In the event of any default, breach or violation of Tenant’s rights under this Lease by Landlord, Tenant’s exclusive remedies shall be an action for specific performance or action for actual damages. Without limiting any other waiver by Tenant which may be contained in this Lease, Tenant hereby waives the benefit of any law granting it the right to perform Landlord’s obligation, or the right to terminate this Lease on account of any Landlord default.

ARTICLE 21

TRANSFER OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST

In the event of any transfer or termination of Landlord’s interest in the Premises or the Project by sale, assignment, transfer, foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise whether voluntary or involuntary, Landlord shall be automatically relieved of any and all obligations and liabilities on the part of Landlord from and after the date of such transfer or termination, including furthermore without limitation, the obligation of Landlord under Article 4 and California Civil Code 1950.7 above to return the security deposit, provided said security deposit is transferred to said transferee. Tenant agrees to attorn to the transferee upon any such transfer and to recognize such transferee as the lessor under this Lease and Tenant shall, within five (5) days after request, execute such further instruments or assurances as such transferee may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm such attornment.

ARTICLE 22

BROKER

In connection with this Lease, Tenant warrants and represents that it has had dealings only with firm(s) set forth in Article 1.H. of the Basic Lease Provisions and that it knows of no other person or entity who is or might be entitled to a commission, finder’s fee or other like payment in connection herewith and does hereby indemnify and agree to hold Landlord, its agents, members, partners, representatives, officers, affiliates, shareholders, employees, successors and assigns harmless from and against any and all loss, liability and expenses that Landlord may incur should such warranty and representation prove incorrect, inaccurate or false.

ARTICLE 23

PARKING

Tenant shall rent from Landlord, commencing on the Commencement Date, the number of unreserved parking passes set forth in Article 1.I. of the Basic Lease Provisions, which parking passes shall pertain to the Project parking facility. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for parking passes the prevailing rate charged from time to time at the location of such parking passes. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for the full amount of any taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with the renting of such parking passes by Tenant or the use of the parking facility by Tenant. Tenant’s continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking passes are located, including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord, Tenant’s cooperation in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations, and Tenant not being in default under this Lease. Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Project parking

 

20


facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of rent under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may, from time to time, relocate any reserved parking spaces (if any) rented by Tenant to another location in the Project parking facility. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator or a lessee of the parking facility in which case such parking operator or lessee shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 23 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval. Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as the Landlord may establish, at the validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking.

ARTICLE 24

WAIVER

No waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach by Tenant of the same or any other provision. No provision of this Lease may be waived by Landlord, except by an instrument in writing executed by Landlord. Landlord’s consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Landlord’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act of Tenant, whether or not similar to the act so consented to or approved. No act or thing done by Landlord or Landlord’s agents during the Term of this Lease shall be deemed an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept such surrender shall be valid unless in writing and signed by Landlord. The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. Any payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of an amount less than the total amount then due hereunder shall be deemed to be in partial payment only thereof and not a waiver of the balance due or an accord and satisfaction, notwithstanding any statement or endorsement to the contrary on any check or any other instrument delivered concurrently therewith or in reference thereto. Accordingly, Landlord may accept any such amount and negotiate any such check without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover all balances due and owing and to pursue its other rights against Tenant under this Lease, regardless of whether Landlord makes any notation on such instrument of payment or otherwise notifies Tenant that such acceptance or negotiation is without prejudice to Landlord’s rights.

ARTICLE 25

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice from Landlord, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing (the “Estoppel Certificate”) certifying the following information, (but not limited to the following information in the event further information is requested by Landlord): (i) 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 modified, is in full force and effect); (ii) the dates to which the rental and other charges are paid in advance, if any; (iii) the amount of Tenant’s security deposit, if any; and (iv) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder, and no events or conditions then in existence which, with the passage of time or notice or both, would constitute a default on the part of Landlord hereunder, or specifying such defaults, events or conditions, if any are claimed. It is expressly understood and agreed that any such statement may be relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of all or any portion of the Real Property. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall constitute an admission by Tenant that all statements contained therein are true and correct. Furthermore, if Tenant fails to timely deliver an Estoppel Certificate to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Article 25, then without limiting any other rights and remedies of Landlord, Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant an amount equal to $500 per day for each day thereafter until Tenant delivers to Landlord an Estoppel Certificate pursuant to the terms hereof. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that (A) such charge compensates Landlord for the administrative costs caused by the delinquency, and (B) Landlord’s damage

 

21


would be difficult to compute and the amount stated in this paragraph represents a reasonable estimate of such damage. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s attorney-in-fact and in Tenant’s name, place and stead to execute any and all documents described in this Article 25 if Tenant fails to do so within the specified time period.

Landlord shall have no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from such construction, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of all or any part of the Premises or of Tenant’s personal property or improvements resulting from such construction or Landlord’s actions in connection therewith, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such construction or Landlord’s actions.

(dd) Office and Communications Services.

(i) The Provider. Landlord has advised Tenant that certain office and communications services may be offered to tenants of the Building by a concessionaire under contract to Landlord (“Provider”). Tenant shall be permitted to contract with Provider for the provision of any or all of such services on such terms and conditions as Tenant and Provider may agree.

(ii) Other Terms. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Landlord has made no warranty or representation to Tenant with respect to the availability of any such services, or the quality, reliability or suitability thereof; (ii) the Provider is not acting as the agent or representative of Landlord in the provision of such services, and Landlord shall have no liability or responsibility for any failure or inadequacy of such services, or any equipment or facilities used in the furnishing thereof, or any act or omission of Provider, or its agents, employees, representatives, officers or contractors; (iii) Landlord shall have no responsibility or liability for the installation, alteration, repair, maintenance, furnishing, operation, adjustment or removal of any such services, equipment or facilities; and (iv) any contract or other agreement between Tenant and Provider shall be independent of this Lease, the obligations of Tenant hereunder, and the rights of Landlord hereunder, and, without limiting the foregoing, no default or failure of Provider with respect to any such services, equipment or facilities, or under any contract or agreement relating thereto, shall have any effect on this Lease or give to Tenant any offset or defense to the full and timely performance of its obligations hereunder, or entitle Tenant to any abatement of rent or additional rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, or constitute any accrual or constructive eviction of Tenant, or otherwise give rise to any other claim of any nature against Landlord.

ARTICLE 31

[OPTION TO EXTEND]

(a) [Option Right. Landlord hereby grants the Tenant named in this Lease (the “Original Tenant”)                      (        ) option(s) (“Options”) to extend the Term for the entire Premises for a period of                      (        ) years [each] (each, an “Option Term”), which Option(s) shall be exercisable only by written notice delivered by Tenant to Landlord as

 

30


set forth below. The rights contained in this Article 31 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant (and not any assignee, sublessee or other transferee of the Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) if the Original Tenant occupies the entire Premises as of the date of Tenant’s Acceptance (as defined in Section 31(c) below).

(b) Option Rent. The Basic Rental payable by Tenant during the Option Term (“Option Rent) shall be equal to the “Market Rent” (defined below), but in no event shall the Option Rent be less than Tenant is paying under the Lease on the month immediately preceding the Option Term for Monthly Basic Rental, including all escalations, Direct Costs, additional rent and other charges. “Market Rent” shall mean the applicable Monthly Basic Rental, including all escalations, Direct Costs, additional rent and other charges at which tenants, as of the commencement of the Option Term, are entering into leases for non-sublease space which is not encumbered by expansion rights and which is comparable in size, location and quality to the Premises in renewal transactions [(or Expansion Space, as applicable)] for a term comparable to the Option Term [(or the term of Tenant’s lease of the Expansion Space, as applicable)] which comparable space is located in the Development [or Project] and office buildings comparable to the Project in                                 , California (as reasonably determined by Landlord), taking into consideration the value of the existing improvements in the Premises to Tenant, as compared to the value of the existing improvements in such comparable space, with such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same could be utilized by Tenant with consideration given to the fact that the improvements existing in the Premises are specifically suitable to Tenant.

(c) Exercise of Option. The Option shall be exercised by Tenant only in the following manner: (i) Tenant shall not be in default, and shall not have been in default under this Lease more than once, on the delivery date of the Interest Notice and Tenant’s Acceptance; (ii) Tenant shall deliver written notice (“Interest Notice”) to Landlord not more than ten (10) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Term, stating that Tenant is interested in exercising the Option, (iii) within fifteen (15) business days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s written notice, Landlord shall deliver notice (“Option Rent Notice”) to Tenant setting forth the Option Rent; and (iv) if Tenant desires to exercise such Option, Tenant shall provide Landlord written notice within five (5) business days after receipt of the Option Rent Notice (“Tenant’s Acceptance”) [OPTIONAL — USE ONLY FOR ARBITRATION: and upon, and concurrent with such exercise, Tenant may, at its option, object to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice]. Tenant’s failure to deliver the Interest Notice or Tenant’s Acceptance on or before the dates specified above shall be deemed to constitute Tenant’s election not to exercise the Option. If Tenant timely and properly exercises its Option, the Term shall be extended for the Option Term upon all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease, except that the rent for the Option Term shall be as indicated in the Option Rent Notice [OPTIONAL — USE ONLY FOR ARBITRATION: unless Tenant, concurrently with Tenant’s Acceptance, objects to the Option Rent contained in the Option Rent Notice, in which event Landlord and Tenant shall use their best good faith efforts to agree upon the Market Rent. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within fifteen (15) days following Tenant’s Acceptance (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then three (3) arbitrators shall be selected pursuant to Section 31(d) below and within three (3) business days following such selection, each party shall submit to each other and to the arbitrators a separate determination of the Market Rent. Tenant’s failure to timely submit its determination of Market Rent shall be deemed acceptance of Landlord’s submitted determination of Market Rent. If Tenant’s and Landlord’s submitted Market Rent are within five percent (5%) of each other, the Market Rent shall be deemed to be Landlord’s submitted Market Rent. If Landlord’s submitted Market Rent is more than five percent (5%) higher than Tenant’s submitted Market Rent, then the parties shall follow the procedure and the Option Rent shall be determined, as set forth in Section 31(d) below].

(d) Determination of Market Rent. If Tenant timely and appropriately objects to the Market Rent in Tenant’s Acceptance, and Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on the Market Rent prior to the Outside Agreement Date, then each party shall make a separate determination of the Market Rent which shall be submitted to each other and to arbitration in accordance with the following items (i) through (vii):

(i) Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint, within ten (10) days of the Outside Agreement Date, one arbitrator who shall by profession be a current real estate broker or appraiser of comparable commercial properties in the immediate vicinity of the Project, and who

 

31


has been active in such field over the last five (5) years. The determination of the arbitrators shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Market Rent is the closest to the actual Market Rent as determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements of item (b), above (i.e., the arbitrators may only select Landlord’s or Tenant’s determination of Market Rent and shall not be entitled to make a compromise determination).

(ii) The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall within five (5) business days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two arbitrators.

(iii) If Landlord’s submitted Market Rent is more than five percent (5%) higher than Tenant’s submitted Market Rent, the three arbitrators shall within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Market Rent, and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof.

(iv) The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.

(v) If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within ten (10) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date and Landlord’s submitted Market Rent is more than five percent (5%) higher than Tenant’s submitted Market Rent, the arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, notify Landlord and Tenant thereof, and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.

(vi) If the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third (3rd) arbitrator, or both parties fail to appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to the instruction set forth in this item (d).

(vii) The cost of arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.]

ARTICLE 32

[EXPANSION RIGHTS/RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER/MUST TAKE SPACE]

(a) [Expansion Rights.

(i) In General. Landlord hereby grants the Original Tenant an option as of the                      (        ) month of the initial Term (the “Expansion Date), to lease up to approximately                      square feet on the                      (        ) floor of the Project, the precise location of which shall be designated by Landlord, in its reasonable discretion, on the terms set forth in this Section 32(a) (the “Expansion Space).

(ii) Method of Exercise. The expansion option contained in this Section 32(a) shall be exercised by only the Original Tenant and only in the following manner: (1) Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord not more than ten (10) months nor less than nine (9) months prior to the Expansion Date, stating that Tenant is interested in exercising its option; (2) Landlord, after receipt of Tenant’s notice, shall deliver notice (the “Expansion Rent Notice”) to Tenant not less than seven (7) months prior to the Expansion Date, setting forth the exact square footage and configuration of the Expansion Space and the “Expansion Rent,” as that term is defined in item (iii), below; and (3) if Tenant wishes to exercise its expansion option, Tenant shall, on or before the later of (A) the date occurring six (6) months prior to the Expansion Date, and (B) the date occurring thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of the Expansion Rent Notice, exercise the option by delivering written notice (“Expansion Exercise Notice”) thereof to Landlord, and, upon and concurrent with such notice, Tenant may, at its option, object to the Expansion Rent, in which event the parties shall follow the procedure and Expansion Rent shall be determined, as set forth in Section 31(d) of this Lease.

(iii) Expansion Rent. The rent payable by Tenant for the Expansion Space (the “Expansion Rent”) shall be the then Market Rent for the Expansion Space, but in no event less than the then current rent then payable for the Premises per rentable square foot.

 

32


(iv) Delivery of the Expansion Space. Landlord shall deliver the Expansion Space to Tenant on or before the Expansion Date.

(v) Construction of Expansion Space. Tenant shall take the Expansion Space in its “as is” condition, and the construction of improvements in the Expansion Space shall comply with the terms of Article 9 of this Lease.

(vi) Amendment to Lease. If Tenant timely exercises Tenant’s right to lease Expansion Space as set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days after determination of the Expansion Rent execute an amendment adding such Expansion Space to the Lease upon the same terms and conditions as the initial Premises, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 32(a). Tenant shall commence payment of rent for the Expansion Space and the term of the Expansion Space shall commence upon the date of delivery of the Expansion Space to Tenant (the “Expansion Space Commencement Date). The term of the Expansion Space shall expire on the Expiration Date.

(vii) No Defaults. The rights contained in this Section 32(a) shall be personal to the Original Tenant, may only be exercised by the Original Tenant (and not any assignee, sublessee or other transferee of the Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) if Tenant occupies the entire Premises as of the date of the Expansion Exercise Notice. Tenant shall not have the right to lease Expansion Space as provided in this Section 32(a), if, as of the date of the Expansion Exercise Notice, or, at Landlord’s option, as of the scheduled date of delivery of such Expansion Space to Tenant, Tenant is in default under this Lease or Tenant has previously been in default under this Lease more than once.

(b) Right of First Offer. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant a right of first offer with respect to that space on the                      (        ) floor of the Project outlined on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof (“First Offer Space); provided, however, such right of first offer shall only be effective if Tenant has delivered a written notice to Landlord, stating that tenant is interested in expanding in the Project (the “Expansion Interest Notice) during the three (3) month period immediately preceding the date that Landlord determines that Landlord shall commence the marketing of any First Offer Space because such space shall become available for lease to third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) such first offer right of Tenant shall commence only following the expiration or earlier termination of (A) any existing lease pertaining to the First Offer Space, and (B) as to any First Offer Space which is vacant as of the date of this Lease, the first lease pertaining to any portion of such First Offer Space entered into by Landlord after the date of this Lease (collectively, the “Superior Leases), including any renewal or extension of such existing or future lease, whether or not such renewal or extension is pursuant to an express written provision in such lease, and regardless of whether any such renewal or extension is consummated pursuant to a lease amendment or a new lease, (ii) such first offer right shall be subordinate and secondary to all rights of expansion, first refusal, first offer or similar rights granted to (A) the tenants of the Superior Leases and (B) any other tenant of the Project (the rights described in items (i) and (ii), above to be known collectively as “Superior Rights), and (iii) such right of first offer shall not be triggered by the lease of space in the Project by Landlord to an existing tenant in the Project in connection with the relocation of such existing tenant’s premises in the Project. Tenant’s right of first offer shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 32(b). Tenant’s right of first offer shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 32(b).

(i) Procedure for Offer. Landlord shall notify Tenant (the “First Offer Notice”) from time to time when Landlord determines that Landlord shall commence the marketing of any First Offer Space because such space shall become available for lease to third parties, where no holder of a Superior Right desires to lease such space. The First Offer Notice shall describe the space so offered to Tenant and shall set forth Landlord’s proposed material economic terms and conditions applicable to Tenant’s lease of such space (collectively, the “Economic Terms”), including the proposed term of lease and the proposed rent payable for the First Offer Space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s obligation to deliver the First Offer Notice shall not apply during the last nine (9) months of the initial Term unless Tenant has delivered an Interest Notice to Landlord pursuant to Section      above nor shall Landlord be obligated to deliver the First Offer Notice during the last eight (8) months of the initial Term unless Tenant has timely delivered Tenant’s Acceptance to Landlord pursuant to Section      above.

 

33


(ii) Procedure for Acceptance. If Tenant wishes to exercise Tenant’s right of first offer with respect to the space described in the First Offer Notice, then within five (5) business days after delivery of the First Offer Notice to Tenant, Tenant shall deliver an unconditional irrevocable notice to Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of its right of first offer with respect to the entire space described in the First Offer Notice and the Economic Terms shall be as set forth in the First Offer Notice. If Tenant does not unconditionally exercise its right of first offer within the five (5) business day period, then Landlord shall be free to lease the space described in the First Offer Notice to anyone to whom Landlord desires on any terms Landlord desires and Tenant’s right of first offer shall terminate as to the First Offer Space described in the First Offer Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant must elect to exercise its right of first offer, if at all, with respect to all of the space offered by Landlord to Tenant at any particular time, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion thereof.

(iii) Construction of First Offer Space. Tenant shall take the First Offer Space in its “as-is” condition, and Tenant shall be entitled to construct improvements in the First Offer Space in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 of this Lease.

(iv) Lease of First Offer Space. If Tenant timely and properly exercises Tenant’s right to lease the First Offer Space as set forth herein, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment adding such First Offer Space to this Lease upon the same non-economic terms and conditions as applicable to the initial Premises, and the economic terms and conditions as provided in this Section 32(b). Unless otherwise specified in Landlord’s Economic Terms, Tenant shall commence payment of rent for the First Offer Space and the Term of the First Offer Space shall commence upon the date of delivery of such space to Tenant.

(v) No Defaults. The rights contained in this Section 32(b) shall be personal to the Original Tenant, and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant (and not any assignee, sublessee or other transferee of the Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) if Original Tenant occupies the entire Premises as of the date of the First Offer Notice. Tenant shall not have the right to lease First Offer Space as provided in this Section 32(b) if, as of the date of the First Offer Notice, or, at Landlord’s option, as of the scheduled date of delivery of such First Offer Space to Tenant, Tenant is in default under this Lease or Tenant has previously been in default under this Lease more than once.

(vi) Remedy. The sole remedy of Tenant for a breach by Landlord of its obligations under this Article 32 shall be an action against Landlord for direct damages (excluding consequential and punitive damages), and Tenant shall not have any right to a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, injunction, specific performance or other remedy, equitable or otherwise, aside from direct damages resulting from said breach by Landlord.

(c) Must Take Space. Tenant hereby agrees to add to the Premises approximately              additional rentable square feet of space located on the              floor of the Project, which space is contiguous to the original Premises, as such space is selected by Landlord (“Must Take Space”). The effective date of Tenant’s lease of the Must Take Space shall be a date selected by Landlord which is between the first day of the                      (        ) month and last day of the                      (        ) month of the initial Term. Tenant’s lease of the Must Take Space shall be on the same terms and conditions as affect the original Premises throughout the Term, including, without limitation, the same Basic Rental rate (per rentable square foot) as then applies to the original Premises; provided, however, that (i) Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be increased to take into account the additional number of rentable square feet of the Must Take Space, and (ii) the Must Take Space shall be leased to Tenant in its then “as is” condition (i.e., Landlord shall not be required to construct any improvements in, or contribute any Tenant Improvement Allowance for, the Must Take Space). Landlord shall provide written notice (“Must Take Notice”) to Tenant at least six (6) months prior to the effective date of Tenant’s lease of the Must Take Space, which notice shall indicate the location and square footage of such space and the anticipated effective date of Tenant’s lease of such space. The Term for the Must Take Space and Tenant’s obligation to pay rent with respect to the Must Take Space shall commence upon the date of delivery of the Must Take Space to Tenant and shall expire co-terminously with the Term for the original Premises. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or otherwise be in default hereunder in the event that Landlord is unable to deliver the Must Take Space to Tenant on the projected delivery date thereof due to the failure of any other tenant to timely vacate and surrender to Landlord such Must Take Space, or any portion thereof; provided,

 

34


however, Landlord agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce its right to possession of such Must Take Space against such other tenant. Promptly after Landlord’s delivery of the Must Take Notice to Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease adding the Must Take Space to the Premises upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 32(c).]

ARTICLE 33

[SIGNAGE/DIRECTORY]

[Provided Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant, at                      sole cost and expense, shall have the right to one (1) line in the lobby directory during the Term. Provided Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to install [an “eyebrow” sign on the Project’s exterior][a strip on the Project’s “monument” sign] (“Tenant’s Signage”). [ADD THE FOLLOWING LANGUAGE IF THERE IS A CHARGE FOR TENANT’S SIGNAGE: Tenant shall furthermore pay to Landlord, on or before the first day of each month during the Term, without demand, offset or deduction, an amount equal to $         as consideration for the right to maintain Tenant’s Signage.] Tenant’s Signage shall be subject to Landlord’s approval as to, without limitation, size, design, location, graphics, materials, colors and similar specifications and shall be consistent with the exterior design, materials and appearance of the Project and the Project’s signage program and shall be further subject to all matters of record and all applicable governmental laws, rules, regulations, codes and Tenant’s receipt of all permits and other governmental approvals and any applicable covenants, conditions and restrictions. Tenant’s Signage shall be personal to the Original Tenant and may not be assigned to any assignee or sublessee, or any other person or entity. Landlord has the right, but not the obligation, to oversee the installation of Tenant’s Signage. The cost to maintain and operate, if any, Tenant’s Signage shall be paid for by Tenant, and Tenant shall be separately metered for such expense (the cost of separately metering any utility usage shall also be paid for by Tenant). Upon the expiration of the Term, or other earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost, cause the removal of Tenant’s Signage (provided that Landlord shall have the right, at its election, to perform such removal on behalf of Tenant, at Tenant’s expense). Such costs shall (i) be payable within three (3) business days following written demand therefor from Landlord, and (ii) include, without limitation, the cost to repair and restore the Project to its original condition, normal wear and tear excepted.]

ARTICLE 34

[ASBESTOS DISCLOSURES]

[Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has advised Tenant that the Project contains or, because of its age, is likely to contain, asbestos-containing materials (“ACMs ”). If Tenant undertakes any Alterations or repairs to the Premises (to the extent permitted under Article 9), Tenant shall, in addition to complying with the requirements of Article 9, undertake the Alterations or repairs in a manner that avoids disturbing any ACMs present in the Project. If ACMs are likely to be disturbed in the course of such work, Tenant shall encapsulate or remove the ACMs in accordance with an approved asbestos-removal plan and otherwise in accordance with all applicable environmental laws, including giving all notices required by the California Health and Safety Code.]

Landlord’s payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord’s approval or acceptance of the work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request.

Subject to the provisions of this Tenant Work Letter, a check for the Final Retention payable jointly to Tenant and Contractor shall be delivered by Landlord to Tenant following the completion of construction of the Premises, provided that (i) Tenant delivers to Landlord a waiver and release in accordance with the terms of California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(2) and a waiver and release in accordance with either California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(3) or Section 3262(d)(4), (ii) Landlord has determined that no substandard work exists which adversely affects the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning, life-safety or other systems of the Project, the curtain wall of the Project, the structure or exterior appearance of the Project, or any other tenant’s use of such other tenant’s leased premises in the Project and (iii) Architect delivers to Landlord a certificate, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, certifying that the construction of the Improvements in the Premises has been substantially completed.

Prior to the commencement of construction of the Improvements, Tenant shall supply Landlord with cash in an amount (the “Over-Allowance Amount”) equal to the difference between the amount of the Final Costs and the amount of the

 

EXHIBIT “D”

-3-


Tenant Improvement Allowance (less any portion thereof already disbursed by Landlord, or in the process of being disbursed by Landlord, on or before the commencement of construction of the Improvements). The Over-Allowance Amount shall be disbursed by Landlord prior to the disbursement of any of the then remaining portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and such disbursement shall be pursuant to the same procedure as the Tenant Improvement Allowance. In the event that, after the Final Costs have been delivered by Tenant to Landlord, the costs relating to the design and construction of the Improvements shall change, any additional costs necessary to such design and construction in excess of the Final Costs, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately as an addition to the Over-Allowance Amount or at Landlord’s option, Tenant shall make payments for such additional costs out of its own funds, but Tenant shall continue to provide Landlord with the documents described in Section 2.2.2.1 (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Tenant Work Letter, above, for Landlord’s approval, prior to Tenant paying such costs.

Tenant’s indemnity of Landlord as set forth in this Lease shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or in connection with Tenant’s non-payment of any amount arising out of the Improvements and/or Tenant’s disapproval of all or any portion of any request for payment. Such indemnity by Tenant, as set forth in this Lease, shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to Landlord’s performance of any ministerial acts reasonably necessary (i) to permit Tenant to complete the Improvements, and (ii) to enable Tenant to obtain any Project permit or certificate of occupancy for the Premises.

4.2.2.3 Requirements of Tenant’s Agents. Each of Tenant’s Agents shall guarantee to Tenant and for the benefit of Landlord that the portion of the Improvements for which it is responsible shall be free from any defects in workmanship and materials for a period of not less than one (1) year from the date of completion thereof. Each of Tenant’s Agents shall be responsible for the replacement or repair, without additional charge, of all work done or furnished in accordance with its contract that shall become defective within one (1) year after the later to occur of (i) completion of the work performed by such contractor or subcontractors and (ii) the Commencement Date. The correction of such work shall include, without additional charge, all additional expenses and damages incurred in connection with such removal or replacement of all or any part of the Improvements, and/or the Project and/or common areas that may be damaged or disturbed thereby. All such warranties or guarantees as to materials or workmanship of or with respect to the Improvements shall be contained in the Contract or subcontract and shall be written such that such guarantees or warranties shall inure to the benefit of both Landlord and Tenant, as their respective interests may appear, and can be directly enforced by either. Tenant covenants to give to Landlord any assignment or other assurances which may be necessary to effect such right of direct enforcement.

4.2.2.3.1 Lien-Free Basis. Tenant’s Contractor and agents shall perform all work on a lien-free basis. If a lien is filed or recorded against the Project due to, or in any way associated with, the construction of the Improvements, Tenant agrees to have such lien released of record (in a manner and form approved by Landlord) within five (5) days of Landlord’s notice to Tenant regarding same. If Tenant fails to cause the release of such lien within such five (5) day period to Landlord’s satisfaction, Landlord may cause the removal of such lien, and Tenant agrees to repay Landlord for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord

 

EXHIBIT “D”

to release the lien (including, but not limited to, the payment of the amount stated in the lien, any filing, processing, recording and attorneys’ fees) within ten (10) days of Landlord’s request therefor, and such amount shall be considered Additional Rent due under the Lease. If Tenant fails to pay Landlord as aforesaid, such failure shall be deemed an uncured noticed material default under the Lease, and Landlord may pursue any remedy provided for under the Lease, at law or in equity.

4.2.2.4 Insurance Requirements.

4.2.2.4.1 General Coverages. All of Tenant’s Agents shall carry worker’s compensation insurance covering all of their respective employees, and shall also carry public liability insurance, including property damage, all with limits, in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in this Lease.

4.2.2.4.2 Special Coverages. Tenant shall carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering the construction of the Improvements, and such other insurance as Landlord may require, it being understood and agreed that the Improvements shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. Such insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord including, but not limited to, the requirement that all of Tenant’s Agents shall carry excess liability and Products and Completed Operating Coverage insurance, each in amounts not less than $500,000 for each incident, $1,000,000 in aggregate, and in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Tenant as set forth in this Lease.

Certificates for all insurance carried pursuant to this Section 4.2.2.4 shall be delivered to Landlord before the commencement of construction of the Improvements and before the Contractor’s equipment is moved onto the site. All such policies of insurance must contain a provision that the company writing said policy will give Landlord thirty (30) days prior written notice of any cancellation or lapse of the effective date or any reduction in the amounts of such insurance. In the event that the Improvements are damaged by any cause during the course of the construction thereof, Tenant shall immediately repair the same at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant’s Agents shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the Improvements are fully completed and accepted by Landlord, except for any Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance required by Landlord, which is to be maintained for ten (10) years following completion of the work and acceptance by Landlord and Tenant. All policies carried under this Section 4.2.2.4 shall insure Landlord and Tenant, as their interests may appear, as well as Contractor and Tenant’s Agents. All insurance, except Workers’ Compensation, maintained by Tenant’s Agents shall preclude subrogation claims by the insurer against anyone insured thereunder. Such insurance shall provide that it is primary insurance as respects the owner and that any other insurance maintained by owner is excess and noncontributing with the insurance required hereunder.

4.2.4 Inspection by Landlord. Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Improvements at all times, provided however, that Landlord’s failure to inspect the Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights hereunder nor shall Landlord’s inspection of the Improvements constitute Landlord’s approval of the same. Should Landlord disapprove any portion of the Improvements, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of such disapproval and shall specify the items disapproved. Any defects or deviations in, and/or disapproval by Landlord of, the Improvements shall be rectified by Tenant at no expense to Landlord, provided however, that in the event Landlord determines that a defect or deviation exists or disapproves of any matter in connection with any portion of the Improvements and such defect, deviation or matter might adversely affect the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning or life-safety systems of the

At the conclusion of construction, (i) Tenant shall cause the Architect and Contractor (A) to update the Approved Working Drawings as necessary to reflect all changes made to the Approved Working Drawings during the course of construction, (B) to certify to the best of their knowledge that the “record-set” of as-built drawings are true and correct, which certification shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease, and (C) to deliver to Landlord two (2) sets of copies of such as-built drawings within ninety (90) days following issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, and (ii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a copy of all warranties, guaranties, and operating manuals and information relating to the improvements, equipment, and systems in the Premises.

GUARANTY OF LEASE

This Guaranty of Lease (“Guaranty”) is entered into this      day of         , 20    , by                                                   (the “Guarantor”) to                                  (“Landlord”), with respect to certain obligations of                              (“Tenant”).

Guarantor is financially interested in Tenant and in order to induce Landlord to enter into that certain Standard Office Lease, dated                             , by and between Landlord and Tenant for premises located at                                          (the “Lease”), Guarantor is willing to enter into this Guaranty.

1. Guaranty. In order to induce Landlord to enter into the Lease, Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely, and irrevocably guarantees and promises to Landlord full and complete payment and performance by Tenant of all covenants, terms and conditions of the Lease, as the same may hereafter be modified, amended, extended or renewed, including but not limited to payment when due of rent and other sums due under the Lease and all damages to which Landlord is or may be entitled whether under California Civil Code Section 1951.2 upon a termination of the Lease or otherwise, indemnification payments and payment of any and all legal fees, court costs and litigation expenses incurred by Landlord in endeavoring to collect or enforce any of the foregoing against Tenant, Guarantor, or any other person liable thereon (whether or not suit be brought), or in connection with any property securing any or all of the foregoing or this Guaranty. All sums due under this Guaranty shall bear interest from the date due until the date paid at the maximum contract rate permitted by law. This is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collectibility, which shall remain in full force and effect during the term of the Lease, as renewed or extended, and thereafter until Tenant’s obligations are fully satisfied, and Guarantor waives any right under California Civil Code § 2815 to revoke this Guaranty based upon a failure of continuing consideration or otherwise. If all or any portion of the obligations guaranteed are paid or performed, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect in the event that all or any part of such payment or performance is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from Landlord as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise. Guarantor’s liability is not conditioned or contingent upon the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Lease, and Guarantor waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code § 2810 and agrees that by doing so Guarantor is liable even if Tenant had no liability at the time of execution of the Lease or thereafter ceases to be liable. Guarantor waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code § 2809 and agrees that by doing so its liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of Tenant.

2. Changes Do Not Affect Liability. Guarantor consents and agrees that Landlord may, without notice or demand and in its sole and absolute discretion and without affecting Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, from time to time (a) renew, compromise or settle, extend, accelerate, grant extensions of time or otherwise change or amend the Lease or any of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease; (b) take, hold, release, waive, exchange, modify or enforce any security for the payment and performance of this Guaranty or the payment and performance of the Lease and make elections under the federal bankruptcy laws concerning any such security; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Landlord in its discretion may determine; (d) release or substitute any one or more of the persons liable for Tenant’s obligations under the Lease or guarantors of the Lease, including but not limited to any other person signing this Guaranty; (e) accept or make compositions or other arrangements or file or refrain from filing a claim in any bankruptcy proceeding of Tenant or any other guarantor or pledgor; and (f) otherwise deal with Tenant or any other guarantor or pledgor or party related to the Lease or any security or collateral in such manner as Landlord may determine in its sole and absolute discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor waives the rights and benefits under California Civil Code § 2819 and agrees that by doing so its liability shall continue even if Landlord alters any obligations under the Lease in any respect or Landlord’s rights or remedies against Tenant are in any way impaired or suspended without Guarantor’s consent. Landlord may without notice assign this Guaranty in whole or in part. The Lease may be assigned either by Landlord or Tenant or the premises sublet in whole or in part without Guarantor’s consent or notice to Guarantor and without affecting the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

3. Waivers by Guarantor of Certain Rights and Defenses. Guarantor waives and relinquishes any rights and defenses it may have under California Civil Code §§ 2845, 2849 and 2850, § 2856(a) or otherwise to require Landlord to (a) proceed against Tenant or any other guarantor, pledgor or person liable under the Lease; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security for the Lease or this Guaranty; or (c) pursue any other remedy in Landlord’s power whatsoever. In other words, Landlord may proceed against Guarantor for the obligations guaranteed without first taking any action against Tenant or any other guarantor, pledgor or person liable under the Lease and without proceeding against any security. Guarantor shall not have, and hereby waives (a) any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity and any similar right that Guarantor may otherwise have, (b) any right to any remedy which Landlord now has or may hereafter have against Tenant, and (c) any benefit of any security now or hereafter held by Landlord. Guarantor waives (a) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of non-performance, protests, notices of protests and notices of dishonor; (b) all other notices and demands to which Guarantor might be entitled, including without limitation notice of all of the following: the acceptance hereof; any adverse change in Tenant’s financial position; any other fact which might increase Guarantor’s risk; any default, partial payment or non-payment under the Lease; any and all agreements and arrangements between Landlord and Tenant and any changes, modifications, or extensions thereof; and any revocation, modification or release of any guaranty of any or all of the Lease by any person (including without limitation any other person signing this Guaranty); (c) any defense arising by reason of any failure of Landlord to obtain, perfect, maintain or keep in force any security interest in any property of Tenant or any other person; (d) any defense based upon or arising out of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against Tenant or any other guarantor or any person liable under the Lease, including without limitation any discharge of, or bar against collecting, any of the obligations guaranteed hereby in or as a result of any such proceeding, any rejection of the Lease and any limitation on Landlord’s claim for rejection damages under 11 U.S.C. § 502(b)(6) (which contains a limitation equal to the greater of one (1) year’s rent or fifteen percent (15%) of the rent for the remaining term of the Lease (not to exceed three (3) years)) or otherwise; (e) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Tenant or any other guarantor or any other person or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Tenant or any other guarantor or any other person; (f) the right to a jury trial in any action under this Guaranty or relating to this Guaranty; and (g) the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation with respect to any action based upon, arising out of or related to this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Guaranty, Guarantor expressly waives any and all benefits which might otherwise be available to Guarantor under California Civil Code Section 2822 (which provides in part that if a surety is liable upon only a portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to be satisfied).

4. Independent Liability; Joint and Several Liability. Guarantor agrees that one or more successive or concurrent actions may be brought on this Guaranty against Guarantor, in the same action in which Tenant may be sued or in separate actions, as often as deemed advisable by Landlord. The obligations under this Guaranty are joint and several, and independent of the obligations of Tenant. If Guarantor is a married person, Guarantor agrees that recourse may be had against his separate property and/or community property for all of his obligations under this Guaranty.

5. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. Landlord shall have the right to seek recourse against Guarantor to the full extent provided for in this Guaranty and in any other instrument or agreement evidencing obligations of Guarantor to Landlord, and against Tenant to the full extent of the obligations guaranteed hereby. No election in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Landlord’s right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against any other party. The failure of Landlord to enforce any of the provisions of this Guaranty at any time or for a period of time shall not be construed to be a waiver of any such provision or the right thereafter to enforce the same. All remedies under this Guaranty shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to Landlord by law or under any other instrument or agreement.

 

EXHIBIT “F”

6. Financial Condition of Tenant. Guarantor acknowledges that certain facts concerning Tenant and Tenant’s financial condition may be known or become known to Landlord. Guarantor waives any right to require Landlord to furnish such information to Guarantor and agrees not to assert any defense Guarantor may have based upon Landlord’s failure to furnish such information. Guarantor acknowledges that, in executing this Guaranty and at all times hereafter, Guarantor relies and will continue to rely upon its own investigation and sources other than Landlord for all information and facts relating to Tenant and Tenant’s financial condition.

7. Subordination. Any indebtedness of Tenant now or hereafter held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated to Tenant’s obligations under the Lease; and such indebtedness of Tenant to Guarantor, if Landlord so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor as trustee for Landlord and be paid over to Landlord on account of the obligations owed by Tenant to Landlord but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

8. Bankruptcy of Tenant. Guarantor shall not commence or join with any other person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings against Tenant or any person liable for Tenant’s obligations under the Lease. Guarantor shall file in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required or permitted by law all claims which Guarantor may have against Tenant relating to any indebtedness of Tenant to Guarantor and will assign to Landlord all rights of Guarantor thereunder. Landlord shall have the sole right to accept or reject any plan proposed in such proceedings and to take any other action which a party filing a claim is entitled to do. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy, or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to Landlord the amount payable on such claim and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, Guarantor hereby assigns to Landlord all of Guarantor’s right to any such payments or distributions to which Guarantor would otherwise be entitled; provided, however, that Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be satisfied except to the extent that Landlord receives cash by reason of any such payments or distribution. If Landlord receives anything hereunder other than cash, the same shall be held as collateral for amounts due under this Guaranty. If the Lease is rejected in any bankruptcy proceeding, it shall not affect Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty for all of the obligations of Tenant under the Lease due or to become due thereunder, and in addition thereto, at the option of Landlord, Guarantor shall either assume the Lease and pay and perform all of the obligations of the tenant thereunder or enter into a new lease with Landlord on substantially all of the terms and conditions of the Lease for the remaining term of the Lease.

9. Successors and Assigns; Amendment. All rights, benefits and privileges under this Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Landlord and its successors and assigns and shall be binding upon Guarantor and his heirs, representatives, successors and assigns. Neither the death of Guarantor nor notice thereof to Landlord shall terminate this Guaranty as to his estate, and, notwithstanding the death of Guarantor or notice thereof to Landlord, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect. The provisions of this Guaranty may not be waived or amended except in a writing executed by Guarantor and a duly authorized representative of Landlord.

10. Reports and Financial Statements of Guarantor. Guarantor shall, at its sole cost and expense, at any time and from time to time, but not more often than once annually, deliver to Landlord upon Landlord’s request (i) such financial statements and reports concerning Guarantor for such periods of time as Landlord may reasonably designate and (ii) copies of any and all foreign, federal, state and local tax returns and reports of or relating to Guarantor as Landlord may from time to time request. Guarantor shall promptly deliver written notice to Landlord of any material adverse change in Guarantor’s financial condition and of any condition or event which constitutes an default of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty. Whenever requested, Guarantor shall deliver to Landlord a certificate signed by Guarantor (and, if Guarantor is a corporation, by the president and chief financial officer of Guarantor in their individual capacities; and, if Guarantor is a partnership, by all general partners of Guarantor, in their individual capacities) warranting and representing that all reports, financial statements and other documents and information delivered or caused to be delivered to Landlord under this Guaranty, are complete, correct and thoroughly and accurately present the financial condition of Guarantor, and that there exists on the delivery date of the certificate to Landlord no condition or event which constitutes a default of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty. Guarantor shall

also be required to deliver estoppel certificates in the form and at the times when Tenant shall be required to deliver estoppel certificates under the Lease, which may include a statement to the effect that this Guaranty remains in effect and that Guarantor has no rights of offset or defenses to enforcement of this Guaranty.

11. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants that (i) if Guarantor is a corporation or partnership, it is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization, (ii) it is in Guarantor’s direct interest to assist Tenant in procuring the Lease, because Tenant has a direct or indirect corporate or business relationship with Guarantor, (iii) this Guaranty has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered and constitutes the binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and (iv) the execution and delivery of this Guaranty does not violate (with or without the giving of notice, the passage of time, or both) any order, judgment, decree, instrument or agreement to which Guarantor is a party or by which it or its assets are affected or bound.

12. Authority of Tenant’s Representatives. If Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other entity, Landlord shall have no obligation to inquire into the power or authority of Tenant or any of its officers, directors, partners, or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf.

13. Construction; Severability; Integration. When this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the word “Guarantor” shall mean all and any one or more of them. Words used in this Guaranty in the masculine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, neuter and feminine gender, and words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall include the plural and vice versa, wherever the context so reasonably requires. If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any party or circumstance is held invalid, void, inoperative, or unenforceable, the remainder of this Guaranty and the application of such provision to other parties or circumstances shall not be affected thereby, the provisions of this Guaranty being severable in any such instance. This Guaranty is the entire and only agreement between Guarantor and Landlord respecting the guaranty of the Lease, and all representations, warranties, agreements, or undertakings heretofore or contemporaneously made, which are not set forth in this Guaranty, are superseded.

14. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Guaranty is governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such state. In order to induce Landlord to accept this Guaranty, and as a material part of the consideration therefor, Guarantor (i) agrees that all actions or proceedings relating directly or indirectly to this Guaranty shall, at the option of Landlord, be litigated in courts located within the State of California, and (ii) consents to the jurisdiction of any such court and consents to the service of process in any such action or proceeding by personal delivery or any other method permitted by law. Guarantor designates                                  as its agent for service of process, and service may at the option of Landlord be made upon such person.

15. Paragraph Headings. Paragraph headings are used in this Guaranty for convenience only and shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit, define or interpret any provision of this Guaranty.

16. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance by Guarantor of each and every obligation under this Guaranty.

17. Notices. Any notice which a party shall be requested or shall desire to give to the other under this Guaranty shall be given by personal delivery or by depositing the same in the United States mail, first class postage pre-paid, addressed to Landlord at its address set forth above and to Guarantor at its address set forth below, and such notices shall be deemed duly given on the date of personal delivery or three (3) days after the date of mailing as aforesaid. Landlord and Guarantor may change their address for purposes of receiving notices under this Guaranty by giving written notice thereof to the other party in accordance with this Section. Guarantor shall give Landlord immediate written notice of any change in its address.

18. Advice of Counsel. Guarantor has had the opportunity to review this Guaranty with its counsel, who is a member of the State Bar of California, and such counsel has explained to it the meaning and significance of the provisions of this Guaranty, including but not limited to the waivers and consents contained in this Guaranty, and answered any questions that it had regarding the meaning, significance and effect of the provisions of this Guaranty.
