GROUND LEASE

Exhibit 10.5

GROUND LEASE

          This Ground Lease (this “Lease”) is dated for reference purposes as of November 30, 2005, and is executed on the dates set forth with the signatures below by and between AEROJET-GENERAL CORPORATION, an Ohio corporation (“Lessor”), and AMPAC FINE CHEMICALS LLC, a California limited liability company (“Lessee”).

RECITALS

          A. Lessor owns approximately eight thousand five hundred (8,500) acres of land located south of State Highway 50 and east of Sunrise Boulevard and bordering the southern edge of Folsom Boulevard and the northern edge of White Rock Road, in Sacramento County, California, including the buildings and other improvements thereon (collectively, the “Aerojet Site”). The Aerojet Site serves as Lessor’s business headquarters, and some of the Aerojet Site is used for the development and production of various products, including, but not limited to, explosives and propellants (collectively, the “Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses”). Some of the Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses, as well as some of the Reserved Uses (defined below), require compliance with Quantity/Distance Restrictions (defined below).

          B. Among the improvements located on the Aerojet Site are private roadways (collectively, the “Roadways”) by which Lessor and Lessor’s invitees, licensees, grantees, tenants, employees, agents, and representatives enjoy ingress and egress to, from, and among all portions of the Aerojet Site. As of the Term Commencement Date (defined below), Lessor owns, maintains, and controls all of the Roadways.

          C. Lessor’s ownership and use of most of the Aerojet Site are subject to the Partial Consent Decree (defined below) and may, in the future, become subject to other or different decrees or administrative orders or demands issued by, at the request or with the consent of the PCD Agencies (defined below), or by any court of competent jurisdiction (collectively, including any modifications and supplements thereto issued from time to time, the “Governmental Decrees and Orders”).

          D. The Partial Consent Decree currently imposes use restrictions and other requirements upon most of the Aerojet Site, and such restrictions and requirements may, in the future, become changed, supplemented, extended, or terminated, in whole or in part, pursuant to amendments to the Partial Consent Decree, other Governmental Decrees and Orders, or the Risk Assessment (defined below) (collectively, as effective and amended from time to time, the “Governmental Restrictions”).

          E. The scope of the Partial Consent Decree includes a remedial investigation/feasibility study and may include a risk assessment (a “Risk Assessment”). The Partial Consent Decree does not establish the extent of remedial action that may be required. Remedial design/remedial action (“RD/RA”) activities are anticipated to be governed by either an amendment to the Partial Consent Decree or other Governmental Decrees and Orders. The nature and extent of any RD/RA activities that may be required and the Governmental

Restrictions resulting from, or related to, such activities are not and cannot be known as of the execution and delivery of this Lease.

          F. Lessee desires to lease and use a certain portion of the Aerojet Site, which portion is hereinafter defined as the “Demised Land.” Lessor desires to demise the Demised Land to Lessee and to provide to Lessee access to the Demised Land and to the AFC Buildings (defined below) across certain of the Roadways. Some of Lessee’s uses of the Demised Land and the AFC Buildings will require compliance with Air Emissions Requirements (defined below).

          G. Prior to, or concurrently with, the execution and delivery of this Lease, Lessor conveyed, or is conveying, to Lessee fee title to the AFC Buildings. Lessor has not conveyed, and in no event shall Lessor convey as part of this transaction, to Lessee fee title to any of the Roadways, the Demised Land, the Aerojet Buildings (defined below), or other Improvements (defined below) located within the Demised Land except the AFC Buildings.

          H. In addition to the Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses, Lessor or its successor or successors in title will be obtaining land use entitlements for, subdividing, and constructing improvements upon various portions of the Aerojet Site that are adjacent to, or near, the Demised Land (collectively, “Adjacent Development”). Adjacent Development will be a mixed-use development, including single-family and multiple-family housing, schools, day-care centers, parks, retail stores, offices, and other types of uses.

          I. The purpose of this Lease is to set forth all of the terms and conditions under which Lessor leases to Lessee, and Lessee leases from Lessor, the Demised Land for Lessee’s use as permitted under this Lease, as well as to set forth all of the terms and conditions under which Lessee’s Access Rights (defined below) are provided by Lessor to Lessee and Lessor’s Reserved Rights are retained by Lessor, all subject and subordinate to the Governmental Restrictions. In addition, this Lease sets forth commitments by Lessor and Lessee to facilitate their compliance with the Quantity/Distance Restrictions and the Air Emissions Requirements, respectively, and to accommodate Adjacent Development.

          NOW, THEREFORE, and in reference to the foregoing recitals (collectively, the “Recitals”), Lessor and Lessee, in consideration of the various obligations set forth in this Lease, agree as follows:

                    (i) In none of the Aerojet Temporary Use Building, the Aerojet Buildings or the Off-Site Aerojet Buildings shall energetic materials be used,

manufactured, or stored, except for those buildings designated on Exhibit “C” attached hereto (and for such buildings, only for the time periods listed thereon), except that:

Lessee’s Access Rights shall be deemed to be an easement appurtenant to Lessee’s interests in the Premises and a covenant real, running with the land, that Lessor shall have no right to terminate or restrict during the Term (or subsequent to the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises), subject to the following provisions:

               (a) Lessee’s Access Rights are non-exclusive;

               (b) Subject to the terms and conditions of Lessee’s Access Rights as set forth in this Lease, and subject to the rights, if any, to use Lessor Controlled Roadways granted by Lessor to others from time to time, whether before or after the execution of this Lease, Lessor shall control the Lessor Controlled Roadways, including, but not limited to, the exclusive right and power:

                  (i) To adopt from time to time and to enforce reasonable rules and regulations respecting use of the Lessor Controlled Roadways by Lessee and others applied on a non-discriminatory basis;

                  (ii) To adopt reasonable security measures designed to prevent or discourage use of the Lessor Controlled Roadways by unauthorized people and to comply with Law, ordinances or regulations, as applicable from time to time, for the operation and security of Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses, including, but not limited to, fencing and locked gates and imposition of background and identity checking and other

procedures for all or some persons entering upon the Aerojet Site or through the Aerojet Site to the Demised Land, all of which shall be applied on a non-discriminatory basis;

                  (iii) To close or restrict temporarily use of the Lessor Controlled Roadways or any portion thereof as may be necessary in the event of any emergency, or to restrict temporarily to make improvements to, or to repair, the Lessor Controlled Roadways, or for security or other legitimate purposes (provided that any such non-emergency restrictions shall provide for reasonable alternative access);

                  (iv) To close, relocate, realign, replace, regrade, repave, improve, abandon, or demolish, from time to time, all or any part of the Lessor Controlled Roadways, in which event any new or different roads that Lessor may, in the future, build upon the Aerojet Site outside the boundaries of the Demised Land shall be deemed part of the “Lessor Controlled Roadways” as that term in used in this Lease; provided that Lessor shall always and continuously during the Term (or subsequent to the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises) provide reasonable means for Lessee’s exercise of Lessee’s Access Rights;

                  (v) To offer all or any part of the Roadways or other portions of the Aerojet Site located outside the boundaries of the Demised Land for dedication to public use or to any governmental entity, and with respect to any such offer, Lessee agrees fully and promptly to cooperate with Lessor and to execute, acknowledge (when needed), and deliver all appropriate instruments and documents;

                  (vi) To grant easements over, and licenses to use, the Lessor Controlled Roadways or any portion thereof to third parties chosen by Lessor; provided the same do not unreasonably interfere in any material way with Lessee’s exercise of Lessee’s Access Rights;

                  (vii) To conduct, or contract for, all maintenance, repair, and improvement work on the Lessor Controlled Roadways as Lessor, in its sole and absolute discretion, without detriment to Lessee’s Access Rights, may determine is appropriate or necessary from time to time; and

                  (viii) With respect to any portion of the Lessor Controlled Roadways over which Lessee exercises Lessee’s Access Rights, Lessee agrees that, when, if ever, that portion, or some other area as a substitute or alternative for that portion, which is available at all times industrial, becomes a public roadway, whether through acceptance of an offer of dedication made by Lessor or otherwise, then Lessee’s Access Rights shall cease as to that portion or other area, with Lessee relying upon the public nature of that portion or other area to assure access to the Premises. When, if ever, and to the extent that, dedicated public roadways over any portion of the Aerojet Site offer access to the Demised Land acceptable to Lessee in Lessee’s reasonable discretion, Lessee’s Access Rights over Lessor Controlled Roadways shall cease and no longer be a part of this Lease.

               (c) Lessee’s Access Rights shall, from time to time, at the request of either Lessor or Lessee, be exercised over a specific route along designated portions of the Lessor Controlled Roadways as reasonably designated by Lessor and approved by Lessee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall be granted whenever the chosen route is reasonably convenient for Lessee’s purposes under this Lease. To evidence, in the Official Records, the exact location for exercise of Lessee’s Access Rights, and to assure third parties that no other portion of the Lessor Controlled Roadways is then encumbered by Lessee’s Access Rights, Lessor and Lessee shall, from time to time, execute and record in the Official Records amendments to this Lease setting forth in Exhibit “I” attached hereto the then-current location for exercise of Lessee’s Access Rights.

          2.3 Roadway Costs and Expenses.

               (a) Lessor shall keep the Lessor Controlled Roadways used for Lessee’s Access Rights in as good operating condition and repair as at the Term Commencement Date. Lessor shall pay all costs and expenses for repair, maintenance, and improvement of the Lessor Controlled Roadways, and Lessee shall have no obligation to contribute or reimburse Lessor for any portion thereof. Lessor’s obligations under this Section 2.3(a) shall survive the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises and such obligations shall be evidenced in the Access Easement Agreement.

               (b) Lessee shall pay all such costs and expenses for repair, maintenance, and improvement of the Lessee Controlled Roadways, and Lessor shall have no obligation to contribute or reimburse Lessee for any portion thereof.

          2.4 Term. The term of this Lease (the “Term”) shall commence on the Term Commencement Date, and shall expire at the expiration of thirty years (30) from the Term Commencement Date (the “Expiration Date”), subject to extension and/or earlier termination as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Subject to the terms of this Section 2.4, Lessee shall have the option (the “Renewal Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease for a period of thirty (30) years beyond the Expiration Date (the “Renewal Term”). The Renewal Option shall be effective only if no Default by Lessee is occurring under this Lease, either at the time of exercise of the Renewal Option or the time of commencement of the applicable Renewal Term. The Renewal Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice (“Election Notice”) from Lessee to Lessor given not less than six (6) months prior to the Expiration Date. An Election Notice given by Lessee to Lessor shall be irrevocable. If Lessee fails to exercise the Renewal Option in a timely manner, as provided for above, the Renewal Option shall thereafter be null, void and of no further force or effect. The Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions as the initial Term. The Renewal Option is appurtenant to, and shall not be assigned or transferred by Lessee separate from, a permitted assignment of all of Lessee’s interests under this Lease. Any purported assignment of transfer of the Renewal Option to any Person that is not concurrently receiving a permitted assignment of all of Lessee’s interests under this Lease shall be null and void and a material breach of this Lease by Lessee.

          2.5 Purchase Option. Subject to the terms of this Section 2.5, Lessee shall have a recurring option (the “Purchase Option”) to purchase Lessor’s fee simple interest in the

Demised Land and Lessor’s Improvements (including the Aerojet Buildings), together with comparable easements, utility and service rights and obligations as then currently in place under this Lease, at any time, in exchange for payment of a purchase price in the amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00); provided, however, that Lessee shall not be entitled to exercise the Purchase Option until such time (i) as the United States Environmental Protection Agency has delisted the Demised Land as a Superfund site, (ii) Lessee shall have committed to pay to Seller (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), at or prior to the closing of Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land, the full principal amount due to Seller under the Notes (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and any interest owed thereon, and under the Earn Out (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), and (iii) Lessee shall have committed to pay to Seller, at or prior to the closing of Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land, any and all monies (including interest) due to Seller under the Earn Out (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). The foregoing three (3) conditions are the only conditions to Lessee’s exercise of the Purchase Option; provided, however, that the Purchase Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect if and when this Lease is terminated, regardless how such termination is effected, and shall not be effective or binding upon Lessor after any such termination of this Lease. The Purchase Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice (“Purchase Notice”) from Lessee to Lessor given not less than six (6) months, or more than twelve (12) months, prior to the date Lessee desires to acquire Lessor’s fee interest. Any such Purchase Notice given by Lessee to Lessor shall be irrevocable, which purchase notice shall not constitute notice under Section 2.8(d). The deed transferring the property to Lessee shall include any environmental and other use restrictions necessary as provided in Section 2.2 of Exhibit “G”. Upon Lessee’s delivery of the Purchase Notice, the parties will execute a purchase agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit “J” attached hereto and made a part hereof, which will provide, among other matters the following:

               (a) At the closing of Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land and Lessor’s Improvements, Lessor’s grant will be made by grant deed subject only to (1) all matters now of record, (2) all matters that a true, correct and complete survey or visible inspection of the Demised Land or Premises would reveal as of the date of such closing, (3) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges which are not delinquent, (4) all zoning, building, platting and similar restrictions, and (5) and all matters caused by Lessee, its successors, sublessees and assigns, and Lessee will accept the Premises in an “AS IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” condition;

               (b) After Lessee exercises the Purchase Option, Lessor will not create or permit through its actions or inactions any additional encumbrances on the Premises without Lessee’s consent;

               (c) Neither Lessee nor Lessor will be responsible for any real estate or brokerage commissions in connection with the sale of the property pursuant to the Purchase Option, and each of Lessor and Lessee agree to indemnify and hold the other harmless in respect of any parties claiming any such real estate or brokerage commissions arising by, through or under the respective indemnifying party;

               (d) Closing shall occur as soon as practicable after six (6) months after Lessee’s written notice of the exercise of the Purchase Option. All closing and escrow costs for such transaction will be allocated as is customary practice in Sacramento County; and

               (e) Lessor and Lessee shall cooperate in all commercially reasonable respects, including executing any additional documents reasonably required, to consummate the transaction as contemplated by this Section 2.5 following Lessee’s exercise of the Purchase Option. Should the parties be unable to agree upon aspects of such transaction, those aspects will be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of Section 15.16.

               (f) Following Lessee’s exercise of the Purchase Option, and prior to the closing of Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land, Lessor and Lessee shall execute and cause to be recorded in the Official Records of Sacramento County, California, at Lessee’s sole cost, easement agreement(s), that are appurtenant to and run with the land, to the extent the same may be necessary to memorialize the then current rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee, as contemplated by Sections 2.2, 4.1(a), 4.1(b), 4.4 and Exhibit “C” (the “Easements”). The Easements shall be in form and substance as may be necessary for First American Title Insurance Company, or a title company reasonably acceptable to Lessee, to include the same as insured easement parcel(s) in the legal description of the title insurance policy to be issued to Lessee at the closing of Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land and sufficient for such title company to issue a CLTA 103.4 or 103.7 endorsement (or its successor endorsement).

               (g) In the event the conditions for Lessee’s exercise of the Purchase Option as set forth above are satisfied and Lessee gives a Purchase Notice, but Lessor asserts that it is unable to transfer its fee simple interest in the Demised Land and Lessor’s Improvements to Lessee due to the fact that any such transfer would violate Governmental Restrictions, then (1) Lessor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy whatever conditions are required to be satisfied under such Governmental Restrictions in order to lawfully transfer fee simple interest in the Demised Land and Lessor’s Improvements to Lessee, and (2) Lessee shall have the option to extend the term of this Lease for an additional ninety-nine (99) years (or such shorter period to the extent required by Law) or until such time as Lessor may lawfully transfer fee simple title to the Demised Landlord and Lessor’s Improvements and such a transfer is consummated.

               2.6 Quiet Enjoyment. Provided that Lessee fully performs all the terms of this Lease on Lessee’s part to be performed, including payment by Lessee of all Base Rent and Additional Rent, Lessee shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises during the Term without hindrance, disturbance or molestation from or by Lessor, or any other party claiming through Lessor, subject to the Encumbrances.

               2.7 Termination. Lessee may terminate this Lease in its sole discretion without cause at any time prior to the Expiration Date by giving Lessor no less than two (2) years’ prior written notice of Lessee’s intention to terminate. Upon the date of termination so specified in Lessee’s notice, this Lease and the estate hereby granted shall expire and terminate with the same force and effect as if the date specified in such notice were the Expiration Date, and all rights and obligations of Lessee and Lessor hereunder shall expire and terminate (except for such provisions that expressly survive the termination or earlier expiration of this Lease).

               2.8 Aerojet Buildings.

               (a) Lessor represents that the list attached hereto as Exhibit “H” is a true and complete list of the Aerojet Buildings, with a brief description of the status of such buildings.

               (b) Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement between Lessor, Aerojet Fine Chemicals LLC, and American Pacific Corporation dated as of July 12, 2005 as amended (the “Purchase Agreement”), Lessor shall retain ownership of the Aerojet Buildings on and after the Term Commencement Date, and Lessee shall have no interest in them.

               (c) Lessee hereby agrees to provide to Lessor, at all times during the Term (or subsequent to the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises), subject to the provisions of subpart (d) of this Section 2.8 and subject to Force Majeure, reasonable and sufficient ingress within the Premises for the Reserved Uses (“Lessor’s Access Rights”). Lessor’s Access Rights shall be deemed to be an easement appurtenant to Lessee’s interests in the Demised Land and a covenant real, running with the Demised Land. Lessee shall have no right to terminate or restrict Lessor’s Access Rights during the Term (or subsequent to the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises), subject to the following provisions:

               (i) Lessor’s Access Rights are non-exclusive;

               (ii) Subject to the terms and conditions of Lessor’s Access Rights as set forth in this Lease, and subject to the rights, if any, to use Lessee Controlled Roadways granted by Lessee to others from time to time, whether before or after the execution of this Lease, Lessee shall control the Lessee Controlled Roadways, including, but not limited to, the exclusive right and power;

               (iii) To adopt from time to time and to enforce reasonable rules and regulations respecting use of the Lessee Controlled Roadways by Lessee and others applied on a non-discriminatory basis;

               (iv) To adopt reasonable security measures designed to prevent or discourage use of the Lessee Controlled Roadways by unauthorized people and to comply with Law, ordinances or regulations, as applicable from time to time, for the operation and security of the Premises, including, but not limited to, fencing and locked gates and imposition of background and identity checking and other procedures for all or some persons entering upon the Premises, all of which shall be applied on a non-discriminatory basis;

               (v) To close or restrict temporarily use of the Lessee Controlled Roadways or any portion thereof as may be necessary in the event of any emergency, or to restrict temporarily to make improvements to, or to repair, the Lessee Controlled Roadways, or for security or other legitimate purposes (provided that any such non-emergency restrictions shall provide for reasonable alternative access);

               (vi) To close, relocate, realign, replace, regrade, repave, improve, abandon, or demolish, from time to time, all or any part of the Lessee Controlled Roadways, provided that

Lessee shall always and continuously during the Term provide reasonable means for Lessor’s exercise of Lessor’s Access Rights;

               (vii) To grant easements over, and licenses to use, the Lessee Controlled Roadways or any portion thereof to third parties chosen by Lessee; and

               (viii) To conduct, or contract for, all maintenance, repair, and improvement work on the Lessee Controlled Roadways as Lessee, in its sole and absolute discretion, without detriment to Lessor’s Access Rights, may determine is appropriate or necessary from time to time.

               (d) (i) As part of Lessor’s ongoing operations, Lessor may choose to vacate and/or abandon the Aerojet Buildings and is able to do so subject to the obligations contained in this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, commencing on the fourth (4^th) anniversary of the Term Commencement Date, Lessee may, upon notice to Lessor, request that Lessor vacate and abandon in place all of the Aerojet Buildings. Lessee shall provide Lessor with not greater than 14 months’ and not less than 12 months’ prior written notice of such request. Within 12 months of receipt of such written request, Lessor shall remove all Hazardous Substances from the Aerojet Buildings, and vacate and abandon in place all of the Aerojet Buildings, and leave such Aerojet Buildings in a condition that shall not be an unsafe condition. Lessor’s Access Rights with respect to the use of the Aerojet Buildings shall terminate upon such vacation and abandonment.

               (ii) In the event Lessee exercises its Purchase Option and takes fee title to the Demised Land, at Lessee’s request, Lessor agrees to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Lessee such grant deed, and such other instruments and documents as Lessee shall reasonably request in order to assure and show in the Official Records Lessee’s fee title to the Demised Land and the Aerojet Buildings free of any interest or claim of Lessor. Prior to Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land pursuant to the Purchase Option, with respect to Aerojet Buildings that are not razed pursuant to Section 2.8(d)(iii), Lessor shall remove all Hazardous Substances from such Aerojet Buildings, and vacate and abandon in place all of the Aerojet Buildings, and leave such Aerojet Buildings in a condition that shall not be an unsafe condition. Lessor’s obligations under this Section 2.8(d)(ii) shall survive the Term.

               (iii) Alternatively, at the time Lessee exercises its rights under the Purchase Option, Lessee shall have the right at such time to request in a written notice to Lessor, that Lessor demolish down to grade level, any or all of the then remaining Aerojet Buildings and remove the construction debris from the Demised Land, all at Lessor’s cost. As part of such demolition, Lessor shall not be obligated to remove any subsurface infrastructure. The parties agree that Lessor shall have eighteen (18) months from the receipt of such notice to accomplish such demolition. Nothing in this Section 2.8(d) shall diminish or limit Lessor’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Substances under this Lease.

               (e) Upon the vacation and abandonment of each of the Aerojet Buildings, Lessor agrees to seal, lock or otherwise secure such Aerojet Buildings (including in Lessor’s reasonable discretion, fencing). Beginning on the Term Commencement Date, and ending on the

earlier of the Expiration Date and Lessee’s purchase of the Demised Land, Lessor will maintain the Aerojet Buildings in a not unsafe condition, and Lessor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless fully Lessee for any and all claims, liabilities and losses caused by the Aerojet Buildings or any Hazardous Substances therein.

               (f) On or after the Term Commencement Date and upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each of the parties hereto shall take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Law and otherwise to carry into effect the provisions of this Lease regarding the Reserved Uses with respect to the continued existence of the Aerojet Buildings allowed on the Demised Land, including, without limitation, executing such instruments or documents as are necessary or desirable.

               (g) Title to all fixtures, equipment, furnishings, and trade fixtures owned by Lessee upon the Premises shall remain in Lessee, and replacements, substitutions, and modifications thereof may be made by Lessee throughout the Term.

ARTICLE 3.

RENT

               3.1 Amount of Base Rent. In addition to any and all other amounts payable from Lessee to Lessor pursuant to this Lease, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor, and Lessor agrees to accept from Lessee, as rent for the use and occupancy of the Demised Land, during the Term, a minimum annual base rent equal to the parties’ good faith estimate of reasonable and actual costs incurred by Aerojet in connection with the administration of this Lease, which the parties agree shall be Five Thousand Dollars per year ($5,000) for the first five lease years, and Zero Dollars ($0) for the remainder of the Term of the Lease (the “Base Rent”).

               3.2 Payment of Base Rent. The Base Rent shall be paid, in lawful money of the United States of America, at such place or places as Lessor shall designate from time to time. The Base Rent shall be paid in equal monthly installments, three months in advance, on the first (1^st) day of each month during that portion of the Term for which Base Rent is payable, subject to prorations as follows:

                    (a) If the date as of which Base Rent commences to accrue is not the first (1^st) day of a calendar month, then a prorated portion, based upon a thirty (30)-day month, of Base Rent shall be due and payable on the date as of which Base Rent commences to accrue; and

                    (b) If the date as of which the Term expires is not the last day of a calendar month, then the last monthly payment of Base Rent during the Term shall be prorated, based upon a thirty (30)-day month, to the date the Term expires.

               3.3 Additional Rent. This Lease is intended to be net to Lessor, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor, net throughout the Term, the Base Rent prescribed by Section 3.1 free of any

offset, abatement, or other deduction, except as may be expressly set forth herein. Lessor shall not be required to make any payment of any kind with respect to the Premises, except as may be expressly set forth elsewhere in this Lease. Accordingly:

                    (a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, Lessee agrees to pay, to Lessor or the appropriate party or governmental entity, as applicable (and such amounts payable to Lessor shall be deemed “Additional Rent”), in addition to Base Rent, all other payments, costs, expenses, charges, and other obligations of every kind whatsoever attributable to the Premises and the operation thereof, including Lessee’s insurance premiums, real property taxes, assessments, and assessment installments (excluding matters that are paid in connection with the Transition Services Agreement between Lessor and Lessee dated as of the same date hereof (the “Transition Services Agreement”)) as they become due and payable during the Term; and

                    (b) Lessee shall make those payments, whether such payments are owned to Lessor or must be made to a third party in order to fulfill an obligation of Lessee set forth in this Lease, at whatever time is necessary to prevent delinquency or penalty for late payment unless Lessee has duly contested said payments in the manner permitted and prescribed in this Lease. Lessor shall invoice Lessee for any non-regularly scheduled sums payable to Lessor hereunder, which shall be due no sooner than 30 days following Lessee’s receipt of such invoice.

               3.4 No Offset. All Base Rent and Additional Rent becoming owed to Lessor under this Lease shall be due and payable without necessity of notice or demand and shall be paid without offset or deduction of any kind, except as may be expressly provided elsewhere in this Lease.

               3.5 Interest on Arrearages. Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor interest on any Base Rent or Additional Rent not paid within ten (10) days following receipt of notice from Lessor that such amounts are past due, whether or not such amounts constitute rent, as follows:

                    (a) Said interest shall accrue from the date the rent or other amount becomes due and continue until the rent or other amount is paid in full;

                    (b) Said interest shall become due and payable daily as it accrues, without necessity of demand for payment, and shall be calculated at a rate equal to ten percent (10%) per annum, but in no event shall such interest rate exceed the maximum interest rate allowed under the California Usury Law; and

                    (c) Lessor may apply all payments received under this Lease first to interest accrued, and second to delinquent rent and other monetary obligations.

               3.6 Refunds. If Lessor receives any refunds or rebates of any Additional Rent paid by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease, Lessor will pay such refund or rebate (or Lessee’s pro rata share of such refund or rebate, as reasonably calculated) to Lessee within five days after Lessor’s receipt thereof. Lessor shall aid Lessee in all reasonable respects in obtaining any such refund or rebate, provided that all costs of obtaining the same shall be paid by Lessee. Lessee

may, in its own name and at its own cost, contest with the applicable governmental entity the full or partial amount of any tax or other charge (or any portion or subdivision thereof) for which Lessee is responsible hereunder or the validity thereof. Lessor may contest with the applicable governmental entity any such tax or charge concerning the Premises, so long as such contest also relates to Lessor’s Property and does not disproportionately affect the Premises. Lessor and Lessee will reasonably cooperate with each other in the event that either elects to challenge any tax assessment or other governmental entity charge under this Section 3.6. In connection with the foregoing, Lessor shall provide Lessee with assessor’s valuation notices promptly following the receipt of same and shall provided Lessee with any assessor’s work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available relating to the taxes or other charges which are the subject of Lessee’s challenge. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to require either party to pay any tax or governmental entity charge of any kind that is or may be imposed upon the other party, its successors or assigns with respect to such other party’s property.

ARTICLE 4.

USE OF PREMISES

               4.1 Permitted Uses. Lessee shall use the Premises solely for the purposes of (i) the Acquired Business and other pharmaceutical uses, such as developing, manufacturing, distributing, and testing chemicals and their derivatives and uses and activities directly related thereto, such as, but not limited to, laboratories and administrative offices, (ii) developing, manufacturing and distributing aerospace products (but specifically excluding the right to conduct activities which involve either perchlorate, trichloroethylene (TCE), or N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) and/or (iii) any lawful uses compatible with the Adjacent Development, (collectively, the “Permitted Uses”) which may include uses which compete with other Lessor businesses or the Adjacent Development); provided, however, that no use shall be considered a Permitted Use that would impose on Lessor or any of its successors or assigns, an obligation to remedy or remove any environmental contamination on the Demised Land or on property owned by Lessor or any of its successors or assigns adjacent to the Demised Land to a standard or degree that exceeds the most cost-effective, remedial alternative that is protective of human health and the environment and is consistent with and meets the requirements of any applicable Environmental Law and any Governmental Authority based upon the use of the property as industrial property. In all cases, such uses shall be conducted in compliance with all Law and requirements herein. Except as provided above, Lessee shall not use the Premises for any other use whatsoever without the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent may be granted or withheld arbitrarily for any reason or no reason. Lessee’s use of the Premises and Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses shall always be conducted with knowledge of, and reasonable accommodation for, each other. In connection with said requirement for reasonable accommodation for each other, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.1, Lessor and Lessee agree specifically as follows:

                    (a) Lessor agrees not to voluntarily do, permit, or suffer any activity on that portion of the Aerojet Site, whether located inside or outside the area of the Demised Land, that would cause Lessee to violate or fail to comply with the Current Air Emissions

Requirements or that would expand the areas affected by the Quantity/Distance Restrictions as provided in Exhibit “C”;

                    (b) Lessee agrees not to voluntarily do, permit, or suffer any activity on the Premises or any portion thereof that would cause Lessor to violate or fail to comply with the Quantity/Distance Restrictions or that would expand the area affected by the Air Emissions Requirements outside the Demised Land plus those other portions of the Aerojet Site located within the areas of the radii shown on Exhibit “D” attached hereto; and

                    (c) If infrastructure financing done in connection with Adjacent Development includes, or is proposed by Lessor to include, imposition of Mello-Roos bonds or improvement bonds or assessments or the creation of any special district or districts with any form of taxing authority which affect the Demised Land, Lessee and Lessor agree to discuss the appropriate allocation, if any, of responsibility for payment of such assessments based on the relative benefit to the Demised Land. If the parties are unable to agree on an appropriate allocation of such assessments, the matter will be submitted to an arbitrator appointed by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) on a date which is acceptable to both parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Francisco, California in accordance with the procedures established by JAMS. Any determination by the arbitrator shall be final and judgment and upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The parties hereby waive any right to appeal or challenge such award in any court or otherwise. The parties shall each pay one half of the costs and fees of the arbitrator and the cost of the arbitration. The obligations set forth in this Section 4.1 shall survive the Term.

          4.2 Prohibited Uses. In no event shall the Premises or any portion thereof ever be used for purposes defined in paragraph 11(B)(1) of the Partial Consent Decree or as may in the future be defined as prohibited in any Governmental Decrees and Orders. Lessee agrees not to do or permit anything to be done on or about the Premises and agrees not to bring or keep anything thereon that constitutes a violation of Section 4.1 or a nuisance or constitutes waste or damages to the Premises or any part thereof.

          4.3 Compliance with Law.

                    (a) Lessee shall not use the Premises or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises that will in any material respect conflict with any law, whether that law be a state or federal statute, an ordinance adopted by any city or county, a judicial or administrative decision, including, but not limited, the Governmental Restrictions and the Governmental Decrees and Orders, or any other governmental rule, regulation, permit, or requirement, and whether that law is now in force or is hereafter adopted, and including the rules and requirements of any board of fire insurance underwriters or equivalent (collectively, “Law”); provided that Lessor shall have given Lessee reasonable notice of any applicable Governmental Restrictions in such manner so that Lessee has the opportunity to comply. Without limiting Lessor’s obligations with respect to Hazardous Substances under this Lease, Lessee shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly and properly observe and comply with all Law relating to or arising from the use or occupancy, condition or maintenance, improvement, or operation of the Premises or any part thereof that is from time to time permitted to it under this Lease, and shall do all things required

to comply with all Law and to maintain all permits, licenses, certifications, and approvals necessary and appropriate for the operation of the Premises or Lessee’s business.

                    (b) Except as set forth in Section 5.1(b) of Exhibit “G” hereto, (A) Lessee shall, at all times, indemnify, defend, protect, and forever save Lessor harmless from and against all fines, penalties, losses, damages, costs, expenses and other charges (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Lessor in defending itself in connection therewith, including those on appeal) imposed for or resulting from any violations by Lessee or any of its employees, agents, representatives, lessees, sublessees, licensees, or contractors at, on, or about the Premises, of any Law; and (B) Lessor shall, at all times, indemnify, defend, protect, and forever save Lessee harmless from and against all fines, penalties, losses, damages, costs, expenses and other charges (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Lessee in defending itself in connection therewith, including those on appeal) imposed for or resulting from any violations by Lessor or any of its employees, agents, representatives, lessees, sublessees, licensees, or contractors at, on, or about the Premises, of any Law.

                    (c) The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of either party in any action against such party, that such party has violated any Law shall be conclusive of the fact as between Lessor and Lessee.

               4.4 Utilities. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Section 4.4, and subject to a Force Majeure (including the failure on the part of the underlying provider of such services (i.e., SMUD; Pacific Gas & Electric; and Folsom)) Lessor shall provide all the utilities set forth below. Lessee shall pay for all utilities and services that Lessee uses at or about the Demised Land during the Term, including, without limitation, all water, natural gas, electricity, telephone, and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, and except with respect to those utilities and services for which Lessee is required to pay to Lessor hereunder, only to the extent that if not paid, any of the foregoing can become a lien on Lessor’s interest in the Demised Land, together with any and all taxes thereon, and for any and all hook up charges and cost of installation of utility lines and meters (including, but not limited to, the costs of bringing such utilities to the Demised Land, if any, and if at the action of Lessee) only to the extent that any of the forgoing, if not paid can become a lien on Lessor’s interest in the Demised Land. To the extent such charges are regularly scheduled payments from Lessee to Lessor and can be calculated in advance, Lessee shall make such payments to Lessor three (3) months in advance. Respecting the provision of water, electricity, and natural gas to the Premises, Lessor and Lessee agree specifically as follows:

                    (a) From Lessor’s supplies of water delivered pursuant to its agreements with the City of Folsom, as those agreements currently exist or are, from time to time, amended or re-negotiated by Lessor and the City of Folsom (or, at Lessor’s option, a comparable replacement source), Lessor shall, subject to the provisions of Section 4.4(f), to provide to Lessee at and for the Premises, during the Term, up to ten thousand (10,000) gallons per day of potable water and up to fifty thousand (50,000) gallons per day of non-potable water and Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor monthly for Lessee’s proportionate share (based upon the ratio of the quantity of Lessee’s use compare to the quantity of total use) of Lessor’s supply costs

incurred at the rates set forth in said agreements with the City of Folsom. To the extent that water deliveries under said agreements with the City of Folsom are terminated or reduced, Lessor and Lessee agree to work cooperatively with each other, using commercially reasonable efforts, in attempting to identify and arrange for replacement water, and if replacement water is arranged, Lessor and Lessee shall each pay its fair share of all costs incurred in securing and delivering such replacement water;

                    (b) Lessor, at its sole cost and expense, shall install and maintain, for so long as Lessor has an obligation to and does supply water under Section 4.4(a), water meters, at a location mutually agreed upon by Lessor and Lessee, serving the Premises, for measuring and monitoring water usage, which installation shall be effected as soon as reasonably practical following mutual execution hereof. Following installation of such meters, for so long as Lessor has the obligation to and does supply water under Section 4.4(a), Lessee shall pay to Lessor, Lessee’s proportionate share of the cost for such water as reimbursement to Lessor for providing water to the Premises, as set forth in (a) above. All payments under this Section 4.4(b) shall be paid, in arrears, at the end of each month during the Term, prorated, based upon a 30-day month, for any partial months at the beginning and ending of the Term;

                    (c) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4(f), Lessee shall, with respect to natural gas, be responsible for obtaining and paying directly for, Lessee’s metered supply from Pacific Gas & Electric or other provider through lines crossing the Aerojet Site. Lessor covenants and agrees to maintain such lines (to the extent not maintained by PG&E or any successor public utility) and to provide any and all necessary easements to the natural gas provider sufficient for such existing lines, or in Lessor’s discretion, such replacement lines, crossing the Aerojet Site. To the extent that such lines entering the Demised Land carrying natural gas purchased by Lessee also supply natural gas to buildings that are either Aerojet Buildings or are located outside the area of the Demised Land, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for its proportionate share of the cost to Lessee of such natural gas. Said reimbursement shall be paid in arrears, at the end of each month during the Term, prorated based upon a 30-day month, for any partial months at the beginning and ending of the Term. When and to the extent any of such buildings are no longer used by Lessor’s proportionate share shall be adjusted;

                    (d) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4(f), Lessor shall, with respect to electricity, be responsible for supplying and paying (subject to reimbursement by Lessee as provided below) directly for, the supply currently in place from the Sacramento Municipal Utility District through lines crossing the Aerojet Site, and Lessee shall install a meter on said lines from the Prairie City Substation, at a location reasonably acceptable to Lessee and Lessor. If Lessor is required to pay for such electricity directly to SMUD, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor, within twenty (20) days after presentation of each invoice, for Lessee’s share of SMUD’s charges for electricity. To the extent that such lines also supply electricity to buildings that are either Aerojet Buildings, Aerojet Temporary Use Buildings or are located outside the area of the Demised Land, Lessee shall not be responsible for (and Lessee may deduct from its said reimbursement to Lessor) Lessor’s proportionate share of such electricity. Said reimbursement shall be paid, in arrears, at the end of each month during the Term, prorated, based upon a thirty (30)-day month, for any partial months at the beginning and ending of the

Term. When and to the extent any of such buildings are no longer used by Lessor’s proportionate share shall be adjusted;

                    (e) Lessee’s rights under this Section 4.4 with respect to utilities (“Lessee’s Utilities Rights”) shall be deemed to be an easement appurtenant to Lessee’s interests in the Premises and a covenant real, running with the land that Lessor shall have no right to terminate or restrict during the Term (or subsequent to the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises), subject to the following provisions:

                         (i) Lessee’s Utilities Rights are non-exclusive;

                         (ii) Said easement for Lessee’s Utilities Rights shall be exercised initially over, and encumber only, the areas described in Exhibit “K” attached hereto and made a part hereof; provided that Lessor reserves the right to change the description set forth in Exhibit “K” at any time, and from time to time, and upon any such change, Lessee’s Utilities Rights shall be exercised over, and encumber only, the new area as chosen by Lessor. Any such change in the area described in Exhibit “K” shall be effective when Lessor gives to Lessee written notice thereof. Promptly upon request by Lessor, Lessee shall execute and deliver an amendment to this Lease setting forth in a new Exhibit “K” describing the new area for exercise of Lessee’s Utilities Rights as so changed by Lessor; and

                    (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.4, Lessee and Lessor acknowledge that Adjacent Development may include installation of additional public utility lines, including water, natural gas, and electricity. Lessor and Lessee agree to coordinate reasonably with each other concerning Lessee’s transition to said public utilities. In connection therewith, in the event public utility lines become available within a one thousand (1,000) foot radius of the point at which the existing utility lines enter the Demised Land, then either Lessor or Lessee shall have the right to cause to be installed all infrastructure necessary for the public utilities to deliver to Lessee the utilities contemplated by this Section 4, and, in connection therewith, Lessor shall execute and record reasonable easement agreements for such infrastructure that are appurtenant to and run with the Demised Land. The party exercising such right shall bear all costs and expenses in connection with the installation of such infrastructure as well as all reasonable third-party costs and expenses associated with the preparation and recording of such easements. In the event public utilities that are functionally equivalent to those currently used in connection with the Acquired Business are installed and made available to Lessee from a public utility company in accordance with this Section 4.4(f), then Lessor shall have no further obligations to Lessee, under subparts (a) through (e) of this Section 4.4 (except for reimbursement of utility use in Aerojet Buildings), all easements granted pursuant to Section 4.4(e) hereof (but not any easements granted in connection with this Section 4.4(f)) shall cease to exist, and Lessee shall have no further obligations to Lessor under such subparts, and Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, arrange for obtaining its utility services exclusively from such public utility provider.

               4.5 Sewer Outfall. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.5, to the extent the sewer outfall commonly used in connection with the Acquired Business operated at the Premises as of the Term Commencement Date, identified in the Acquired Business’s

discharge permit as “SRCSD manhole #072-023-018,” (“Sewer Outfall”) is located on the Aerojet Site, then Lessor shall permit Lessee to use such Sewer Outfall and Lessee’s Access Rights shall be deemed to include reasonable and sufficient access to and from the Sewer Outfall; provided that Lessor reserves the right at any time, and from time to time, to substitute a functionally equivalent alternative sewer outfall on the Aerojet Site to which Lessee has reasonably equivalent access (a “Substitute Sewer Outfall”) and upon any such change, Lessee’s rights hereunder shall be exercised with respect to such Substitute Sewer Outfall. Lessor shall, during the Term, reasonably maintain the Sewer Outfall or the Substitute Sewer Outfall, as appropriate. Each party shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless the other party from and against any liability to the extent arising out of such party’s wastewater discharge. Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for Lessee’s pro-rata share of the costs of wastewater discharge based upon the measured volume of wastewater discharged by Lessee, as compared to the measured volume of all wastewater discharged from the Aerojet Site. In the event a public sewer on fair and non-discriminatory terms which would provide adequate service to the Acquired Business is installed by Lessor as part of the Adjacent Development to the boundary of the Demised Premises, then Lessee shall, at its sole cost and expense, arrange for the connection to and the use thereof and upon such connection Lessor shall have no further obligations to Lessee under this Section 4.5.

               5.1 Definition. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Property Taxes”:

                    (a) means and includes all taxes, assessments, and other governmental charges of every kind and nature whatsoever, whether general or special, ordinary or extraordinary, including, but not limited to, assessments for public improvements or benefits and bonds, including, but not limited to Mello-Roos bonds, issued to finance such improvements or benefits, that have been heretofore or shall be during the term of this Lease as allocated to Lessee as provided in Section 4.1(c) hereto (i) assessed, levied, or imposed upon, or become due and payable and a lien upon, the Premises or any part thereof; or (ii) assessed, levied, or imposed by reason of the use or occupancy or change in ownership of the Premises or any part thereof; or (iii) assessed, levied, or imposed upon this Lease or Lessee’s rental obligations or Lessor’s right to receive rents or other sums under this Lease; or (iv) subject to (b) below, assessed, levied, or imposed by reason of Lessor’s ownership or interest in all or any part of the Premises, this Lease, or rents or other sums accruing under this Lease, including, but not limited to, a tax or excise on rents; or (v) assessed, levied, or imposed in lieu of any of the foregoing taxes, assessments, or other governmental charges; or (vi) assessed by reason of any Improvements made for or on behalf of Lessee; but

                    (b) does not mean or include franchise, estate, inheritance, successor, capital levy, transfer, net income, or excess profit taxes imposed upon Lessor, nor does the term “Property Taxes” include any taxes, assessments, or other governmental charges assessed, levied, or imposed upon, or attributable to the value of Lessor’s ownership of, the Aerojet Buildings; and

                    (c) if, at any time during the Term of this Lease, any portion of the Premises is jointly assessed, for property tax purposes, with other real property that is not a part of the Premises, then Lessor and Lessee shall make a reasonable allocation of the taxes, assessments, or other governmental changes that are assessed, levied, or imposed thereon, and only the portion thereof reasonably attributable to the Premises shall be deemed Property Taxes payable by Lessee as set forth in Section 5.2, which allocation may be based upon any and all records, memoranda, and notes available at the Assessor’s Office, calculations of respective square footage, evaluation of respective permanent improvements and uses, and other relevant evidence available to Lessor at no substantial cost or provided by Lessee. Lessor shall provide Lessee with written evidence of Lessor’s payment of any taxes, charges or assessments affecting the Premises which Lessor is obligated to pay at least three (3) business days prior to delinquency. If Lessor fails to pay any such taxes, charges or assessments, Lessee shall have the right to pay such taxes, charges or assessments and deduct the amount of such payment from Base Rent.

               5.2 Payment.

                    (a) Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor or the appropriate governmental entity, as applicable, prior to delinquency, as Additional Rent additional to all other rent reserved in this Lease, all Property Taxes for each fiscal tax year or portion thereof that is within the Term, for each fiscal tax year that is not entirely within the Term in the same ratio as the number of days of such fiscal tax year that are within the Term bears to the number of such days that are outside the Term.

                    (b) With respect to Property Taxes that may, under the Law then in force, be paid in installments, Lessee shall be required to pay hereunder only such installments, prorated between Lessor and Lessee for partial fiscal tax years as above provided.

                    (c) In the event that Lessee fails to pay any Property Taxes, Lessor shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to pay such Property Taxes or any portion thereof before or after the delinquency date and any and all fines, penalties, and interest thereon, and Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor immediately for the total amount so paid by Lessor, as Additional Rent additional to all other rent reserved in this Lease.

                    (d) In the event that Lessor has paid, before the Term Commencement Date, any Property Taxes or installment thereof for a fiscal tax year or portion thereof that is in part within the Term, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor, on the Term Commencement Date, Lessee’s prorata portion thereof.

                    (e) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5.2 to the contrary, for the first three (3) years of the Term, Lessor agrees to pay one-half (1/2) of that portion of Property Taxes attributable to said three (3) years that is the amount of the increase in Property Taxes triggered by the change in ownership effected by the execution and delivery of this Lease.

               5.3 Personal Property Taxes.

                    (a) Lessee agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, directly to the taxing authority or authorities before delinquency, any and all taxes that are levied or assessed upon Personal Property.

                    (b) If any such taxes upon Personal Property are assessed, levied, or imposed upon Lessor or upon all or any part of the Premises or on Lessor’s interest in the Premises or this Lease, or if such taxes upon Personal Property become a lien upon or may be enforced against Lessor or all or any part of the Premises or against Lessor’s interest in the Premises or in this Lease, Lessor shall as soon as practicable notify Lessee of same, and Lessor shall have the right and option, but no obligation, to pay such taxes upon Personal Property or any portion thereof before or after the delinquency date, and Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor immediately therefor, including, but not limited to, any and all late payment penalties or fines and interest paid by Lessor, as Additional Rent additional to all other rent reserved in this Lease.

               5.4 Contests. Nothing herein shall prevent Lessee from contesting, and Lessee may contest and institute all proceedings reasonably necessary to contest, in good faith, the validity or amount of any Property Taxes, including, but not limited to, any applicable or potentially applicable exemptions from Property Taxes, provided Lessee protects the Premises and the interests of Lessor by payment by Lessee of the Property Taxes under protest not later than thirty (30) days before delinquency, and provided, further, that Lessee shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Lessor from and against any liability for the payment of said Property Taxes. Lessor shall aid Lessee in all reasonable respects in obtaining any such refund or rebate, provided that all costs of obtaining the same shall be paid by Lessee. In connection with the foregoing, Lessor shall provide Lessee with assessor’s valuation notices promptly following the receipt of same and shall provided Lessee with any assessor’s work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available relating to the taxes or other charges which are the subject of Lessee’s challenge. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Lessee may postpone payment of any contested tax, assessment or other charge pending timely prosecution of any such challenge and appeals of any ruling related thereto. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to require either party to pay any tax or governmental entity charge of any kind that is or may be imposed upon the other party, its successors or assigns with respect to such other party’s property.

               5.5 Survival. The obligations set forth in this Article 5 shall survive the Term.

ARTICLE 6.

INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE

          6.1 Lessee’s Indemnity.

          (a) Except to the extent the same arise from Lessor’s actions or omissions, Lessee agrees to indemnify, defend, and protect Lessor and its agents and employees from and against and hold Lessor and its agents and employees harmless and free from any and all liability, loss, cost, expense, or obligation (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other expenses, including those of appeal) on account of or arising out of, injury to or death of any person or persons or damage to or loss of use of property, from whatever cause, occurring during the Term, in any way connected with the condition of, or Lessee’s maintenance or use of, the Premises, the alteration or improvement of the Premises (including without limitation, the demolition of Improvements and the construction of New Improvements), or the Personal Property or connected with any activities of Lessee or of any of its employees, agents, sublessees, invitees, contractors, or licensees, including, without limitation, any and all liability for injury to or death of, or damage to or loss of the use of the property of, Lessee or any of Lessee’s employees, agents, invitees, contractors, or licensees

               (b) Nothing contained in this Section 6.1 shall apply to, or affect in any way, Lessor and Lessee’s obligations and rights respecting, any Release, threat of Release, or the presence of any Hazardous Substance, all of which are governed by other provisions of this Lease, particularly by Sections 2.5 and 5.1 of Exhibit “G”. The obligations set forth in this Section 6.1 shall survive the Term.

          6.2 Liability Insurance.

               (a) Lessee agrees to procure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, during the Term, commercial general liability insurance, occurrence basis, as broad as the most common generally available ISO Commercial General Liability, policy form CG 00 01, insuring against liabilities related to the condition of or use of the Premises in an amount that is not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00), combined single limit, for bodily injury or death and for damage to or loss of use of property. Tenant shall also maintain an umbrella policy in excess of the foregoing coverages in an amount not less than Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00). Such insurance shall be subject to periodic increases as provided below and shall specifically (i) insure performance by Lessee of its indemnity obligations under Section 6.1; (ii) provide that the coverage is primary and that any coverage that Lessor or any mortgage holder may maintain shall be in excess thereof; (iii) name Lessor and such mortgage holder as additional insureds; (iv) provide that the policy cannot be canceled or modified without thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lessor and to the mortgage holder; and (v) include a cross-liability or severability-of-interests endorsement in the event that the basic policy obtained by Lessee does not contain such a provision, which cross-liability or severability-of-interests endorsement shall apply to all additional insureds, as well as the named insureds, and shall be referenced in the additional insureds endorsement. Any self-insured retention respecting said liability insurance shall not exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) per occurrence.

               (b) Neither the maintenance nor the amount of any such general liability insurance shall be construed to limit in any way Lessee’s obligations under any indemnity, defense, or hold harmless agreements set forth in this Lease.

               (c) At the request of Lessor, the amount of said general liability insurance shall be increased periodically as may be reasonable, from time to time (but not more than once in any two year period), based upon advice from a professional insurance consultant selected by Lessor and approved by Lessee, to an amount equal to that which customarily would be carried for a business similar to the Acquired Business and a lease of similarly-situated property and usage.

               (d) Lessee shall also procure such other insurance as may be required by applicable Law. Lessee shall also from time to time procure any modifications to or endorsements for the insurance policies provided for in this Lease as may reasonably be required in order to adequately insure against the risks contemplated in this Article 6 in a manner comparable to other prudent operators of comparable facilities, including increases in the amounts of insurance coverage as may be appropriate in Lessee’s reasonable judgment to reflect inflation.

          6.3 Waiver of Subrogation. Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other from, and if and to the extent permitted by their insurance policies, waive their entire right of recovery against the other for, direct or consequential loss or damage arising out of or incident to the perils covered by the property insurance carried by such party, whether due to the negligence of Lessor or Lessee or their agents, employees, or invitees. If necessary, all property insurance policies, if any, maintained by Lessor or Lessee, shall be endorsed to so provide. Lessee and Lessor each waive any rights to recover indirect, consequential, punitive, special or exemplary damages or any claim for a multiplier effect or any capitalization of out-of-pocket expenses or lost profits, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to preclude recovery by the indemnified party in respect of losses directly incurred from third-party claims. Each of Lessee and Lessor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate their damages.

During the Term of this Lease, Lessor shall maintain general liability, workers’ compensation and employer’s liability, and business automobile liability insurance, covering Lessor’s operations and activities on the Aerojet Site, use of the Aerojet Buildings and Lessor’s exercise of Lessor’s Access Rights.

          6.6 Environmental Remediation and Related Matters. The parties’ respective obligations regarding environmental remediation, environmental matters and related matters are set forth in Exhibit “G” which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Such obligations shall survive the Term if Lessee acquires fee title to the Premises.

ARTICLE 7.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

          7.1 Lessor’s Obligations. Lessor shall keep the Aerojet Buildings in as good a condition, and repair as at the Term Commencement Date, and free from hazards, including replacements as needed. Subject to the foregoing and except as otherwise set forth in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to make or bear the cost of any repairs, replacements, rebuilding, or renewals of any kind, nature, or description whatsoever related to the Premises or any portion thereof, except to the extent such maintenance, repair or replacement is required as a result of the negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor or its agents, employees, representatives, invitees, guests, contractors, subcontractors or any other Person acting for or on behalf of Lessor.

          7.2 Lessee’s Obligations.

               (b) Lessee hereby waives the benefit of any Law that would otherwise accord Lessee the right to make repairs at Lessor’s expense or to terminate this Lease because of Lessor’s failure to keep the Premises or any portion thereof in good order, condition, or repair.

ARTICLE 8.

CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES

          8.1 Construction of New Improvements and Construction in General. Subject to the terms of this Lease, and in accordance with all Law and Government Restrictions, Lessee is, in the course of operating the Premises, authorized to do all things necessary to construct, operate, maintain and adapt the Acquired Business or Lessee’s other lawful use, including, but not limited to, making new improvements (including buildings, structures, fixtures, equipment, paving, landscaping and other physical improvements), removing, razing and/or destroying such improvements, trees, plants, shrubs, and topsoil located on the Premises and making such excavations as Lessee may deem necessary, subject to the provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, this Article 8. Lessee may (but is not obligated to) construct New Improvements upon the Demised Land and Lessee may demolish, alter, and make additions to Lessee’s Improvements and replace obsolete Lessee’s Improvements; provided that all such construction activities, as well as any rebuilding or restoration of damaged or destroyed Improvements under Article 9, shall comply with the following requirements:

               (a) All New Improvements and all such demolitions, alterations, and additions shall be designed and constructed in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with Law, this Lease, and with approval by the PCD Agencies, to the extent required by Law.

               (b) The design and construction of all such New Improvements and all such demolitions, alterations, and additions shall comply with all Law and with all Governmental Decrees and Orders.

               (c) At Lessee’s sole cost and expense, Lessor will (i) notify the PCD Agencies of Lessee’s proposed designs and drawings or demolition, alteration, or construction plans and (ii) seek the approval of the PCD Agencies pursuant to paragraph 11 of the Partial Consent Decree or other applicable Governmental Decrees and Orders, all prior to the commencement of any construction activities at the Premises.

               (d) No New Improvement or the use thereof shall expand the area affected by the Air Emissions Requirements outside the area of the Demised Land plus the Current Air Emissions Requirements Boundaries.

               (e) Lessee, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, shall procure all necessary permits, approvals, and other authorizations that may be necessary or appropriate, including, but not limited to, compliance with the requirements of Section 2.5 of Exhibit “G” hereto, and shall reimburse Lessor for its direct costs and expenses incurred in submitting designs, drawings, and plans to, and seeking the approval of, the PCD Agencies.

               (f) Lessee shall diligently prosecute such construction.

               (g) The entire cost of construction of all New Improvements and of accomplishing such demolitions, alterations, and additions, including, but not limited to, any off site work, plans and specifications, and all permits, fees, and licenses therefore, shall be paid by Lessee.

               (h) In the event Lessee desires to locate a New Improvement on the Demised Land in accordance with the terms of this Lease and all Law and Government Restrictions, and there exist Hazardous Substances (that are Pre-Term Environmental Liabilities) at, on or under that portion of the Demised Land chosen by Lessee for the location of such New Improvement, then Lessor and Lessee shall cooperate in identifying an alternative location for such New Improvement where there are fewer or no such Hazardous Substances (that are Pre-Term Environmental Liabilities) present and where such location would allow Lessee to comply with the terms of Section 8.1(d) and the other provisions of this Lease. If after consultation with Lessor, Lessee cannot locate a New Improvement on the Demised Land in compliance with Section 8.1(d) due to the presence of Hazardous Substances (that are Pre-Term Environmental Liabilities), then the parties shall cooperate in identifying another location on the Demised Premises, including a location that would otherwise cause Lessee to breach the terms of Section 8.1(d). Such alternative location will be mutually agreed to by Lessor and Lessee and shall be chosen with goal of reducing the impact on Aerojet Site Adjoining Uses and the Adjacent Development or plans. Lessor shall be responsible for the additional cost, if any, incurred by Lessee to locate such New Improvement to the alternative location rather than the location selected initially by Lessee.

          8.2 Relocation of Utilities. Lessee shall be responsible, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, for obtaining all agreements, consents, and permits that may be required to relocate any utility improvement that may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the construction and installation of any New Improvements or any demolitions, alterations, or additions.

          8.3 Personal Property. Personal Property may be removed from the Premises by Lessee at any time during the Term and shall be removed from the Premises by Lessee upon the expiration or termination of the Term.

          8.4 Liens and Notices of Violation Prohibited. Lessee shall not enter into any contract or agreement that purports to permit any contractors, subcontractors, or materialmen

engaged by Lessee with respect to the Premises to make, file, or maintain a mechanic’s or other lien or claim of any kind or character against any real property or personal property of Lessor, including Lessor’s Property and any other property interest owned, held, occupied, or otherwise possessed by Lessor or its affiliates, for or on account of any labor, materials, fixtures, tools, machinery, equipment, or any other things furnished, or any other work done or performance given under, arising out of, or in any manner connected with Lessee’s ownership or operation of the Acquired Business (or other Permitted Uses) or possession of the Premises (such liens or claims being collectively referred to herein as “Liens”). If any Lien is made, filed or maintained against the fee interest in the Demised Land, Lessee shall within thirty (30) days following Lessor’s written request therefore either contest such Lien by appropriate proceedings which operate to preclude the enforcement of such Lien during the pendency of such contest, or obtain and maintain a mechanics’ lien release bond or such other bond as shall result in the removal of any Lien under applicable law, or otherwise address the Lien in a commercially reasonable manner. Lessee shall not have any liability hereunder under any circumstances for any lien or claim filed by any person for or on account of any labor, materials, fixtures, tools, machinery, equipment, or any other things furnished, or any other work alleged to be done or performed by or on behalf of Lessor.

          8.5 Mechanics’ Liens.

          (a) Lessee agrees:

          (i) To pay for all labor, services and materials used by or furnished to Lessee or any contractor employed by Lessee with respect to the Premises or any part thereof, whether or not such labor, services, or materials were related to trade fixtures or other works of improvement;

          (ii) to indemnify, defend, and protect Lessor and the Premises from and against, and to hold Lessor and the Premises free and harmless from, any and all liabilities, claims, liens, encumbrances, and judgments created or suffered in connection with such labor, services, or materials; and

          (iii) to permit Lessor to post and maintain notices of nonresponsibility on the Premises in accordance with California Civil Code Section 3094 or other similar statute hereafter enacted; provided that, nothing herein shall prevent Lessee from contesting in good faith the validity or amount of any lien, claim, encumbrance, or judgment, provided that, in the case of a mechanics’ or materialman’s lien, Lessee obtains and records an appropriate bond as provided by Law to remove the record lien created thereby.

          (b) Should a judgment on any lien, charge, encumbrance, order, notice or violation be rendered against the Premises for which Lessor is not responsible hereunder, and should Lessee fail to discharge such judgment or take action to protest such judgment as provided herein, Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to discharge said judgment. If Lessor exercises that option, any amount paid by Lessor shall be due from Lessee as Additional Rent, and subject to interest as provided above. Lessor shall be responsible for any lien, charge, encumbrance, order, notice or violation rendered against the Premises arising out of

any work performed by or on behalf of Lessor or any contractor on behalf of Lessor, except to the extent such work is performed as a result of Lessee’s failure to comply with its obligations as provided in this Lease.

          8.6 Permits or Approvals.

Lessee may, without cost or expense to Lessor, at any time and from time to time during the Lease Term, place or permit to be placed signs on or about the Premises (and at the applicable entrances to the Aerojet Site, in locations reasonably acceptable to Lessor), and to remove them or permit them to be removed, provided the same is done in full compliance with all Law, Government Restrictions and requirements pertaining thereto. Lessor hereby agrees to execute any applications and consents that are required by Law with regard to such signs, provided that Lessee reimburses Lessor for any actual external cost it is required to pay to a third party upon delivery by Lessor to Lessee of written documentation, in reasonable detail, evidencing Lessor’s payment of such cost.

ARTICLE 9.

DESTRUCTION

          9.1 Rebuild. In the event that Lessee’s Improvements or any of them are damaged or destroyed in whole or in part by any casualty, whether or not covered by insurance, Lessee may, in its sole and absolute judgment, elect to rebuild or restore them with such alterations as Lessee may reasonably desire, subject to compliance with Article 8. In the event Lessee elects not to rebuild or restore such Lessee’s Improvements, it shall have the option to terminate this Lease, effective as of ninety (90) days from the date such damage or destruction occurs, which option may be exercised only by giving to Lessor, within said ninety (90) days, a written notice of termination.

Lessee also shall be entitled to such portion of the Award allocable to Lessee’s Improvements, and Lessor shall have no right or interest therein or thereto.

          10.3 Total Permanent Taking. In the event of a Total Taking during the Term that is not a Total Temporary Taking:

          (a) the rights of Lessee under this Lease and the leasehold estate of Lessee in and to the Demised Land shall cease and terminate as of the Date of Taking;

          (b) Lessor shall refund to Lessee any prepaid Base Rent or Additional Rent prorated as of the Date of Taking;

          (c) Lessee shall pay to Lessor any Base Rent and Additional Rent due to Lessor under this Lease prorated as of the Date of Taking, with no further obligations thereafter accruing under this Lease;

          (d) Lessee shall receive from the Award those portions of the Award that are attributable to (i) removal, relocation, and replacement of Personal Property, (ii) any special damages to Lessee that Lessee recovers directly as its own claim without diminution of any claim by Lessor, such as for loss of business goodwill or business moving expenses, and (iii) the value of Lessee’s Improvements and its Leasehold interest; and

          (e) the remainder of the Award, which shall include the value of the Demised Land unencumbered by this Lease and the value of Lessor’s Improvements, shall be paid to Lessor.

          10.4 Partial Permanent Taking. In the event of a Partial Taking during the Term that is not a Partial Temporary Taking,

          (a) The rights of Lessee under this Lease and the leasehold estate of Lessee in and to the portion of the Demised Land taken shall cease and terminate as of the Date of Taking, with no further obligations thereafter accruing under this Lease with respect to that portion;

          (b) Base Rent or Additional Rent and other charges hereunder shall be abated based on the proportion by which Lessee’s use and enjoyment of the Premises has been reduced by such Partial Taking;

          (c) Lessee shall receive from the Award those portions of the Award that are attributable to (i) removal, relocation, and replacement of the Personal Property, (ii) any special damages to Lessee that Lessee recovers directly as its own claim without diminution of any claim by Lessor, such as loss of business goodwill or business moving expenses, and (iii) the value of Lessee’s Improvements taken and its Leasehold interest; and

          (d) the remainder of the Award, which shall include value of the portion taken of the Demised Land unencumbered by this Lease and the value of the portion taken of Lessor’s Improvements, shall be paid to and be the property of Lessor.

          10.5 Temporary Taking. In the event of a Total or Partial Temporary Taking during the Term for a period ending on or before the expiration of the Term,

          (a) this Lease shall continue in full force and effect;

          (b) that portion of the Award attributable to the rental value of the Demised Land and of Lessor’s Improvements for the period of the Total or Partial Temporary Taking shall be paid to Lessor and credited by Lessor to the benefit of Lessee to the Base Rent and Additional Rent that become due during the period of the Total or Partial Temporary Taking;

          (c) any excess of the Award over the amounts paid to Lessor under subpart (b) of this Section 10.5, shall be paid to Lessee; and

          (d) Rent and other charges hereunder shall be abated based on the proportion by which Lessee’s use and enjoyment of the Premises has been reduced by such Temporary Taking.

ARTICLE 11.

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

          11.1 Default Defined. For the purposes of this Lease, the terms “Default by Lessee” and “Lessee’s Default” both mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:

          (a) failure of Lessee to pay any Base Rent and Additional Rent within thirty (30) days after Lessee receives notice from Lessor that such Base Rent and Additional Rent are past due;

          (b) breach by Lessee of any provision of this Lease, except those mentioned in subpart (a) of this Section 11.1, not cured within sixty (60) days after Lessor gives Lessee (and Lessee receives) written notice of the breach, or, in the case of breaches reasonably requiring more than sixty (60) days to cure, not cured within a reasonable time after the giving of such notice, provided that the curing of the breach is commenced within said sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice and is diligently prosecuted to completion thereafter.

          11.2 Lessor’s Right to Terminate. Subject to the rights of Lessee’s Mortgagee herein, in the event of a Default by Lessee, Lessor shall have, in addition to any other remedies now or later available to Lessor at law or equity, the right to terminate this Lease and Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by giving written notice of termination to Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee (and if no minimum notice is specified in this Lease, then Lessor will provide not less than sixty (60) days’ written notice, to Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee, of its intention to terminate this Lease) and to recover from Lessee:

               (a) the worth at the time of award (computed by including interest at the rate specified elsewhere in this Lease for arrearages) of the unpaid Base Rent and Additional Rent required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease that had been earned at the time of termination;

               (b) the worth at the time of award (computed by including interest at the rate specified elsewhere in this Lease for arrearages) of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent and Additional Rent required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease that would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided;

               (c) the worth at the time of award (computed by discounting at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%)) of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent and Additional Rent required to be paid by Lessee under this Lease for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and

               (d) any and all other amounts necessary to compensate Lessor for detriment proximately caused by the Default by Lessee or which in the ordinary course of events would be likely to result therefrom.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall have no right to terminate this Lease as a result of the bankruptcy or insolvency of Lessee, so long as Base Rent, Additional Rent and other obligations hereunder are being paid and satisfied in accordance with this Lease.

          11.3 Lessor’s Right Not to Terminate. Unless and until Lessor elects to terminate this Lease and Lessee’s right to possession as provided in Section 11.2, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect after Default by Lessee, and Lessor may enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including, but not limited to, the right to recover or enforce payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent as they become due under this Lease.

          11.4 Extension of Cure Periods. In the case of a bona fide dispute between Lessor and Lessee regarding whether a Default by Lessee has actually occurred, the cure periods set forth above shall be extended by the amount of time reasonably necessary to resolve such dispute in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.16.

          11.5 General. Efforts by Lessor to mitigate damages caused by any Default by Lessee shall not constitute a waiver by Lessor of any of Lessor’s rights or remedies under this

Lease, and nothing contained in this Lease shall affect the right of Lessor under this Lease to indemnification for liability for personal injuries or property damages arising prior to termination of this Lease. Neither reasonable acts of repair, alteration, maintenance, reletting, or preservation of the Premises, nor the appointment of a receiver or trustee, whether in bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, upon initiative of Lessor to protect Lessor’s interests under this Lease, shall constitute an election by Lessor to terminate this Lease or Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises. If Lessor permits this Lease to continue in full force and effect after a Default by Lessee, Lessor may, nevertheless, at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease (after following the procedures set forth above) and Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises under the provisions of Section 11.2, for such previous Default by Lessee, provided the Default by Lessee has not then been cured. The rights and remedies of Lessor under this Article 11 shall be additional to all other rights and remedies provided to Lessor in this Lease or by law, whether now in force or hereafter enacted, including, but not limited to, injunctions and other equitable relief.

          11.6 Lessor’s Default. If Lessor shall be in default hereunder, then Lessee, after sixty (60) days written notice that Lessee intends to cure such default, or without notice if in Lessee’s reasonable judgment an emergency shall exist, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default, and Lessor shall pay to Lessee upon demand the reasonable cost thereof. If Lessor shall default or fail in the performance in any respect of a covenant or agreement on its part to be performed under this Lease, and such default shall not have been cured for a period of sixty (60) days after receipt by Lessor of written notice of said default from Lessee, or if such default cannot, with due diligence, be cured within sixty (60) days, and Lessor shall not have commenced the remedying thereof within such period or shall not be proceeding with due diligence to remedy it with thirty (30) days following the initial sixty (60) day period (it being intended in connection with a default not susceptible of being cured by Lessor with due diligence within sixty (60) days that the time period within which to remedy the same shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) days), then Lessee may declare Lessor in default of this Lease upon written notice to Lessor, seek any compensatory damages which may be available to Lessee in an action at law or equity, and in addition to its other remedies, cure any default of Lessor at Lessor’s cost and deduct the cost of such cure from Base Rent.

          11.7 Right of Lessor to Perform. Subject to the rights of Lessee’s Mortgagee herein, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated, to make any payment or perform any obligation required of Lessee under this Lease that Lessee fails timely to pay or perform as provided herein, and Lessor may do so with or without giving further notice of Lessor’s intention to do so. No such payment or performance by Lessor shall constitute a waiver of, or release Lessee from, Lessee’s said obligation or any other obligation of Lessee under this Lease, nor shall such payment or performance by Lessor diminish or affect in any way other rights and remedies of Lessor set forth elsewhere in this Lease that may be applicable by reason of such failure by Lessee to pay or perform its obligation.

ARTICLE 12.

LOAN OR SALE

          12.1 Estoppel Certificates, etc. Each party (both Lessor and Lessee) agrees within twenty (20) days following request by the other to execute and deliver to the requesting party an estoppel certificate (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect, or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect, and certifying the date to which the Base Rent and Additional Rent and any other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to such party’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of either party hereunder, or specifying such defaults if they are claimed) evidencing the status of this Lease. The statement shall also state the dates to which the Base Rent and Additional Rent has been paid in advance. The statement shall be such that it can be relied on by any other auditor, creditor, commercial banker, and investment banker of either party and by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises or Improvements or both or of all or any part or parts of Lessee’s or Lessor’s interests under this Lease.

          12.2 Liability of Transferee. In the event that Lessor shall sell or otherwise transfer its title to the Premises, after the effective date of such sale or transfer, and upon assumption of Lessor’s obligations hereunder, whether expressly or by operation of law, Lessor shall have no further liability under this Lease to Lessee except as to matters of liability which have accrued before, and are unsatisfied as of, the date of sale or transfer, and Lessee shall thereafter seek performance solely from Lessor’s successor.

ARTICLE 13.

MORTGAGE HOLDER PROTECTIONS

          13.1 Subordination or Superiority. The rights of Lessee under this Lease shall be superior to any mortgage or deed of trust (including a consolidated mortgage or deed of trust) constituting a lien on Lessor’s title to the Premises, whether such mortgage or deed of trust has heretofore been, or may hereafter be, executed by Lessor (any such mortgage herein called an “Underlying Encumbrance”). To further assure the foregoing superiority, prior to the Term Commencement Date and as a condition to Lessor’s rights and Lessee’s obligations under this Lease (or any new lease executed pursuant to Section 13.5(k)), Lessor shall either (a) obtain a release of any and all existing Underlying Encumbrances with respect to the Premises, or (b) obtain an SNDA from each holder of an existing Underlying Encumbrance in form and substance acceptable to Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee providing for the unqualified recognition of Lessee’s and Lessee’s Mortgagee’s interests under this Lease (or any new lease executed pursuant to Section 13.5(k)), and each of their respective successors and assigns, in the event of a foreclosure of such holder’s security interest so long as no a Default by Lessee has occurred and is continuing hereunder. All future Underlying Encumbrances shall contain clauses acceptable to Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee which automatically subordinate the lien of such Underlying Encumbrance not only to the lien of this Lease but to that of any new lease executed pursuant to

Section 13.5(k). Nothing herein shall be construed to give the holder of any Underlying Encumbrance any right, title or interest in or to, or any lien on or security interest in, any rights or interests of Lessee under or created by this Lease, including without limitation Lessee’s leasehold estate and the fee interest of Lessee in any buildings, improvements or personal property now or hereafter situated on or used in connection with the Premises.

          13.2 Attornment. Subject to the rights of Lessee’s Mortgagee hereunder, Lessee agrees (i) to attorn to any Mortgage Holder and to any party acquiring title to the Premises or any portion thereof by judicial foreclosure, trustee’s sale, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, and (ii) to execute an attornment agreement reasonably acceptable to Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee to confirm same.

          13.3 SNDA Form. Lessor and Lessee agree to act reasonably with each other and with the Mortgage Holder in reviewing and approving the SNDA form described in Section 13.1 above, and agree that the Mortgage Holder and Lessee shall be entitled to have the customary protections expected in such an agreement, including provisions on subject matters that are not expressly mentioned in this Lease.

          13.4 Mortgage Holder’s Right to Cure Lessor’s Defaults. In the event of any default on the part of Lessor under this Lease, Lessee agrees to give notice by certified mail to any Mortgage Holder whose address shall have been furnished to Lessee, and offer such Mortgage Holder, except in the case of emergency, a reasonable opportunity, not to exceed thirty (30) days (or such longer period as is specifically required under this Lease), to cure the default, which cure period shall be in addition to any cure period provided Lessor hereunder.

          13.5 Leasehold Mortgage.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease regarding any assignment of this Lease, but subject to the provisions of this Section 13.5, Lessee shall have the right at any time and from time to time to encumber the leasehold estate created by this Lease and Lessee’s Improvements during the Term by mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument, including, without limitation, an assignment of the rents, issues and profits from the Premises (a “Leasehold Mortgage”), to secure repayment of a loan (and associated obligations) made to Lessee by an Institutional Lender for any purpose whatsoever; provided that the Leasehold Mortgage shall contain an express acknowledgment and agreement by the mortgagee that its interest are subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor not later than thirty (30) days prior to, and promptly after, execution by Lessee a true copy of any Leasehold Mortgage, and any amendment, modification or extension thereof, together with the name and address of the owner and holder thereof (“Lessee’s Mortgagee”).

          (b) During the continuance of any Leasehold Mortgage until such time as the lien of such Leasehold Mortgage has been extinguished, and if a true copy of such Leasehold Mortgage shall have been delivered to Lessor together with a written notice of the name and address of Lessee’s Mortgagee, Lessor shall not do or agree to any of the following without the prior written consent of Lessee’s Mortgagee: (A) mutually terminate or accept any voluntary

surrender of this Lease (except upon the expiration of the Term), or (B) consent to any material amendment or modification of this Lease.

          (c) Notwithstanding any default by Lessee in the performance or observance of any covenant, condition, or agreement of this Lease on the part of Lessee to be performed or observed, Lessor shall have no right to terminate this Lease even though a Default by Lessee under this Lease shall have occurred and be continuing, unless and until Lessor shall have given Lessee’s Mortgagee written notice of such Default by Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have failed to remedy (it being agreed that Lessee’s Mortgagee shall not be obligated to remedy) such default or to acquire Lessee’s leasehold estate created hereby or to commence foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, all as set forth in, and within the time specified by, this Section 13.5.

          (d) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time prior to termination of this Lease, and without any additional penalty therefor, to pay all of the rents due hereunder, to provide any insurance, to pay any taxes and make any other payments, to make any repairs and improvements and do any other act or thing required of Lessee hereunder, and to do any act or thing which may be necessary and proper to be done in the performance and observance of the covenants, conditions and agreements hereof to prevent the termination of this Lease. All payments so made and all things so done and performed by Lessee’s Mortgagee shall be as effective as the same would have been if made, done and performed by Lessee instead of by Lessee’s Mortgagee, and shall be accepted by Lessor.

          (e) Should any Default by Lessee under this Lease occur, Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of notice from Lessor setting forth the nature of such Default by Lessee, and, if the default is such that possession of the Premises may be reasonably necessary to remedy the default, a reasonable time after the expiration of such sixty (60) day period, within which to remedy such default (it being agreed that Lessee’s Mortgagee shall not be obligated to remedy such default), provided that (A) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have fully cured any default in the payment of any monetary obligations of Lessee under this Lease within such sixty (60) day period and shall continue to pay currently such monetary obligations as and when the same are due, and (B) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have acquired Lessee’s leasehold estate created hereby or commenced foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof within such sixty (60) day period or prior thereto, and shall be diligently and continuously prosecuting any such proceedings to completion. All rights of Lessor to terminate this Lease, as against Lessee’s Mortgagee, as the result of the occurrence of any such Default by Lessee shall be subject to and conditioned upon Lessor having first given Lessee’s Mortgagee written notice of such Default by Lessee and Lessee’s Mortgagee having failed, within said limited period, to remedy such default or acquire Lessee’s leasehold estate created hereby or commence foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof as set forth in and within the time period specified by this Section 13.5(e).

          (f) A Default by Lessee under this Lease which in the nature thereof cannot be remedied by Lessee’s Mortgagee shall be deemed to be remedied if (A) within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from Lessor setting forth the nature of such Default by Lessee, Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have acquired Lessee’s leasehold estate created hereby or commenced

foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, (B) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall diligently and continuously prosecute any such proceedings to completion, (C) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have fully cured any default in the payment of any monetary obligations of Lessee under this Lease which do not require possession of the Premises within such sixty (60) day period and shall thereafter continue to faithfully perform all such monetary obligations which do not require possession of the Premises, and (D) after gaining possession of the Premises, Lessee’s Mortgagee shall perform all of the obligations of Lessee hereunder as and when the same are due.

          (g) If Lessee’s Mortgagee is prohibited by any process or injunction issued by any court or by reason of any action by any court having jurisdiction of any bankruptcy, debtor rehabilitation or insolvency proceedings involving Lessee from commencing or prosecuting foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, the times specified in subparagraphs (f) and (g) above for commencing or prosecuting such foreclosure or other proceedings shall be extended for the period of such prohibition; provided that Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have fully cured any default in the payment of any monetary obligations of Lessee under this Lease and shall continue to pay currently such monetary obligations as and when the same fall due, and provided that Lessee’s Mortgagee shall diligently attempt to remove any such prohibition.

          (h) Lessor shall mail to Lessee’s Mortgagee a duplicate copy by certified mail of any and all notices which Lessor may from time to time give to or serve upon Lessee pursuant to the provisions of this Lease; and no notice by Lessor to Lessee hereunder shall be deemed to have been given unless and until a copy thereof has been mailed to Lessee’s Mortgagee. Lessee’s Mortgagee shall have the right to give notices on behalf of Lessee.

          (i) Foreclosure of a Leasehold Mortgage or any sale thereunder, whether by judicial proceedings or by virtue of any power of sale contained in the Leasehold Mortgage, or any conveyance of the leasehold estate created hereby from Lessee to Lessee’s Mortgagee by virtue or in lieu of foreclosure or other appropriate proceedings in the nature thereof, shall not require the consent of Lessor or constitute a breach of any provision of or a default under this Lease. Upon such foreclosure, sale or conveyance, Lessor shall recognize Lessee’s Mortgagee, or any other foreclosure sale purchaser, as Lessee hereunder. In the event Lessee’s Mortgagee becomes Lessee under this Lease or under any new lease obtained pursuant to Section 13.5(j), Lessee’s Mortgagee shall be liable for the obligations of Lessee under this Lease or such new lease only for the period of time that Lessee’s Mortgagee is the Lessee hereunder or thereunder. This Lease or any new lease shall be freely assignable by Lessee’s Mortgagee or any other foreclosure sale purchaser. In the event Lessee’s Mortgagee subsequently assigns or transfers its interest under this Lease after acquiring the same by foreclosure or by an acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or subsequently assigns or transfers its interest under any such new lease, and in connection with any such assignment or transfer Lessee’s Mortgagee takes back a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering such leasehold interest to secure a portion of the purchase price given to Lessee’s Mortgagee for such assignment or transfer, then such mortgage or deed of trust shall be considered a Leasehold Mortgage as contemplated under this Section 13.5 and Lessee’s Mortgagee shall be entitled to receive the benefit of this Section 13.5 and any other provisions of this Lease intended for the benefit of the holder of a Leasehold Mortgage. During the pendency

of any foreclosure or sale proceedings, Lessor will recognize and give effect to any and all subleases covering any portion of the Premises, so long as the sublessees thereunder are not in default under their respective subleases.

          (j) Should this Lease be terminated by reason of any default by Lessee hereunder, Lessor shall, upon written request by Lessee’s Mortgagee to Lessor received within sixty (60) days after such termination, execute and deliver a new lease of the Demised Land to Lessee’s Mortgagee for the remainder of the term of this Lease with the same covenants, conditions and agreements (except for any requirements which have been satisfied by Lessee prior to termination) as are contained herein, and which new lease shall be freely assignable by Lessee’s Mortgagee (or its assignee), in all cases subject to the provisions of paragraph 11 of the PCD and any Governmental Restrictions. Together with the execution and delivery of such new lease of the Premises, Lessor shall, at the request of Lessee’s Mortgagee, deliver to Lessee’s Mortgagee a quitclaim deed respecting Lessee’s Improvements for the term of such new lease. Lessor’s obligation to enter into such new lease of the Premises with Lessee’s Mortgagee shall be conditioned as follows: (A) Lessee’s Mortgagee has remedied and cured all monetary defaults hereunder and has remedied and cured or has commenced and is diligently completing the cure of all nonmonetary defaults of Lessee susceptible to cure by any party other than by the original Lessee, and (B) Lessee’s Mortgagee shall pay or cause to be paid all actual and reasonable costs and expenses of Lessor, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, real property transfer taxes and any escrow fees and recording charges, incurred in connection with the preparation and execution of such new lease and any conveyances related thereto.

ARTICLE 14.

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

          14.1 Generally Forbidden. Except as permitted under Section 14.2, or upon the written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, this Lease and Lessee’s interests under this Lease shall not be assigned or otherwise transferred or delegated by Lessee, in whole or in part, nor shall Lessee sublet or permit or suffer any third party to occupy or use all or any portion of the Demised Land or the Premises. Any attempt to effect such an assignment or other transfer or delegation or such a subletting or third-party occupancy or use, without Lessor’s prior written consent, or in violation of Section 14.2, shall be null and void. The foregoing prohibition of any assignment shall apply fully to an assignment by operation of law. For purposes hereof, sales, transfers or assignments of (i) a controlling interest in the shares of Lessee if Lessee is a corporation that is not publicly traded, or (ii) general partnership interests sufficient to control management decisions if Lessee is a partnership, or (iii) the majority or controlling underlying beneficial interest if Lessee is any other form of business entity, are forbidden by this Section 14.1.

          14.2 Permitted Transactions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.1, and subject to approval under paragraph 11 of the PCD and any applicable Governmental Restrictions, Lessee shall have the right and power to assign, in whole or in part, its interests

under this Lease (a) to any person or entity that is concurrently acquiring substantially all of the business assets of Lessee, whether structured as an “assets” sale or a sale of voting equity interests in Lessee; or (b) to any business entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Lessee, with the word “control” meaning beneficial ownership of equity interests with voting power that are sufficient to dictate management and all business decisions of the entity in question; provided that no such assignment shall be effective except after at least thirty (30) days have elapsed from the date Lessor is given by Lessee written notice of the proposed assignment together with a copy of the proposed instrument of assignment; provided further that Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a copy of the fully executed assignment within ten (10) days after it is executed by Lessee and delivered to the assignee.

          14.3 Miscellaneous Provisions. No assignment by Lessee shall release Lessee from Lessee’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Lessee to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of Base Rent and Additional Rent by Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Lessor of any provision of this Article 14. In the event of default by an assignee in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee.

          14.4 Partial Consent Decree. Any assignee, sublessee, or transferee will be bound by the terms of Exhibit G, as well as the restrictions set forth in Paragraph 11 of the PCD.

This Lease may not be amended or modified, in whole or in part, except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto, or their respective successors or assigns.

          15.9 Severability. If any provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall to any extent be held in any proceeding to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law, but only if and to the extent such enforcement would not materially and adversely frustrate the parties essential objectives as expressed herein.

          15.10 Construction. No provision of this Lease shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of either Lessor or Lessee by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party’s having or being deemed to have structured, written, drafted or dictated such provisions.

          15.11 Governing Law. This Lease and all of the rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee under this Lease or related to the Demised Land, or any part thereof, shall be governed by the Law of the State of California, not including choice of law rules and principles.

          15.12 Time is of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease.

          15.13 No Joint Venture. Nothing in this Lease shall be construed to render or constitute Lessor in any way or for any purpose a partner, joint venturer or associate in any relationship with Lessee other than that as landlord and tenant, nor shall this Lease be construed to authorize either party to act as agent for the other party except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease.

          15.14 Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall be deemed one and the same instrument, and each of which counterparts shall be deemed an original of this Lease for all purposes notwithstanding that less than all of the signatures may appear on any one counterpart.

          15.15 Recordation. Lessor and Lessee agree to record this Lease in its entirety, including all exhibits attached to this Lease, in the Official Records at or after the Term Commencement Date. Lessor and Lessee further agree that:

          (a) This Lease is not intended to, and does not, encumber, or affect, in any way, property other than (i) the Demised Land (as described in Exhibit “A”), which Demised Land includes the only portion of the area described in Exhibit “C” that is affected by this Lease; (ii) the area within the Current Air Emissions Requirements Boundaries (as described in Exhibit “D”); (iii) the Roadways (subject to the provisions of Sections 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3, including Exhibit “I”); (iv) the land described in Exhibit “K”; and (v) the Improvements (collectively, the “Encumbered Property”).

          (b) If any provisions of this Lease appears to be contrary to, or in conflict with, any of the provisions of Section 15.15(a), then, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease, the provisions of Section 15.15(a) shall control over such apparently contrary or conflicting other provisions. All rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee under this Lease are personal rights and obligations of Lessor and Lessee that do not run with, and are not binding upon successors in interest to, any property that is not part of the Encumbered Property.

          (c) Lessor and Lessee agree, upon request by either of them, from time to time, promptly to provide further assurances, including, but not limited to, certifications, estoppel letters, quitclaim deeds, affidavits, amendments to this Lease, or other proof or comfort, addressed to Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, or to third parties, including, but not limited to, title insurance companies and prospective buyers, lessees, and lenders having or anticipating interests in any property that is not within the Encumbered Property, that: (i) such property is not part of the Encumbered Property and is not burdened or benefited by this Lease or any provision of this Lease; and (ii) as and when, as provided elsewhere in this Lease, from time to time, the area of the Encumbered Property becomes changed or some portion of the Encumbered Property becomes released from the burdens of this Lease, that such change or release has occurred and such property is no longer Encumbered Property.

          15.16 Dispute Resolution.

          (a) If a dispute arises between the parties arising from or related to this Lease, the dispute resolution processes set forth in this Section 15.16 shall govern the resolution of such dispute.

          (b) The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any controversy, claim arising out of or relating to this Lease or the construction, interpretation, performance, breach, termination, enforceability or validity thereof (a “Dispute”) promptly by negotiation between executives who have authority to settle the Dispute (“Senior Party Representatives”).

          (c) Either party may give the other party written notice (a “Controversy Notice”) of any Dispute which has not been resolved in the normal course of business. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Controversy Notice, the receiving party shall submit to the other a written response (the “Response”). The Controversy Notice and the Response shall include (i) a statement setting forth the position of the party giving such notice and a summary of arguments supporting such position, and (ii) the name and title of such party’s Senior Party Representative and any other persons who will accompany the Senior Party Representative at the meeting at which the parties will attempt to settle the Dispute. Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Controversy Notice, the Senior Party Representatives of both parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute. All reasonable requests for information made by one party to the other will be honored.

          (d) If the Senior Party Representatives meet and are unable to reach an agreement on the dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Controversy Notice, the parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute using the mediation services of JAMS. The mediation will be conducted by a mutually agreeable mediator from the San Francisco office of JAMS. The costs of the mediator and other JAMS’ costs shall be shared equally by the parties. Any settlement reached by mediation shall be recorded in writing, signed by the parties, and shall be binding on them. In no event shall the existence of a dispute or disagreement between Lessor and Lessee, or their consultation under this Section 15.16 to attempt to resolve it, delay the filing or submission of any document, or the performance of any action or activity, beyond the legally required deadline nor prevent either party from pursuing any remedy to which it is entitled under the indemnification portion of this Agreement.

          (e) All negotiations pursuant to this Section 15.16 shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations. Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document produced, in the course of such negotiations that is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose in any current or future arbitration.

          (f) If the Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days after delivery of the Controversy Notice, or if the parties fail to meet within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Controversy Notice as hereinabove provided, either party may initiate arbitration of the Dispute as provided in subpart (g) of this Section 15.16.

          (g) If the Dispute is not resolved as provided in Section 15.16(b) – (d), then either party may initiate arbitration proceedings by providing the other party written notice of such initiation of arbitration (“Arbitration Notice”). If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator and a time and place for the arbitration within twenty (20) business days of the Arbitration Notice, the party who sent the Arbitration Notice may arrange for arbitration in San Francisco before an arbitrator appointed by JAMS on a date which is acceptable to both parties; provided however, that such date may not be later than forty-five (45) Business Days after the Arbitration Notice, or as soon thereafter as the schedule of the arbitrator(s) permit. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Francisco, California in accordance with the procedures established by JAMS. Any determination by the arbitrator shall be final and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The parties hereby waive any right to appeal or challenge such arbitrable award in any court or otherwise. The parties shall each pay one half of the costs and fees of the arbitrator and the cost of the arbitration.

          15.17 Proceedings. Nothing in Section 15.16 shall prohibit either party from initiating litigation or other judicial or administrative proceedings if such party would be substantially harmed by a failure to act during the time that such good faith efforts are being made to resolve the Dispute through negotiation or mediation. In the even that litigation is commenced under this Section 15.17, the parties agree to continue to attempt to resolve any Dispute according to the terms of Section 15.16 during the course of such litigation proceedings under this Section 15.17.

          15.18 Confidentiality. If Lessor and Lessee shall obtain, or seek to obtain, from the other, as a result of their respective rights and obligations under this Lease, any material or information obtained from the other which is specifically and reasonably determined by the other party as confidential information, the parties shall promptly enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to each party to govern the use and disclosure of such information.

Aerojet may proceed with the proposed use or construction and shall be deemed to have obtained the approval of DRS unless, within 30 days following receipt of such notice, the California Attorney General files an objection in the Court to the use or construction on the ground that it may cause a significant hazard to present or future public health by reason of discharges of hazardous substances occurring before the effective date of this

Decree, or that it will interfere with the performance of Aerojet’s obligations pursuant to this Decree. Filing of the objection shall constitute a dispute to be resolved pursuant to Paragraph 20 (Dispute Resolution) and the burden of proof shall be on Plaintiffs.

     (E) Aerojet will not grant any possessory interest in the land described in Exhibits I-1 or I-5 (“Exhibit I-1 or I-5 land”) without first giving notice to the California Attorney General and the United States, accompanied by a statement of the name of the grantee, the intended uses of the land contemplated by the grantee, and Aerojet’s obligations if any, to be performed by the grantee. The notice shall be either by personal service received, or by registered mail postmarked, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the proposed grant. Aerojet may proceed with the proposed grant unless within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such notice, the United States or the California Attorney General files an objection in the Court to the grant on the ground that it would interfere with the performance of Aerojet’s obligations pursuant to this Decree. Filing of an objection shall constitute a dispute to be resolved pursuant to Paragraph 20 (Dispute Resolution) and the burden of proof shall be on Plaintiffs.

     (F) In the event of a grant subject to the restrictions of this Paragraph, all of Aerojet’s obligations pursuant to this Decree shall continue to be met by Aerojet, or, subject to Plaintiffs’ approval, by one or more grantees. Plaintiffs shall either approve or disapprove the assumption of the obligation by a grantee within sixty (60) days of receipt of written notice seeking such assumption. Any dispute regarding the assumption of any obligation shall be resolved pursuant to Paragraph 20 (Dispute Resolution). The issue before the Court shall be whether the assumption by the grantee would or would not have a material adverse effect on the fulfillment of the requirements of the Decree proposed for assumption, including the adequacy of financial assurance. A copy of Plaintiffs’ approval of the assumption or an order from the Court that

Plaintiffs approved the assumption will, when recorded, conclusively establish that the obligation was assumed.

     (G) A grant of possessory interest in Exhibit I-1 or I-5 land shall contain a notice stating that such land is a subject of this Decree and setting forth the caption of the case, case number, and court having jurisdiction herein. No grant of Exhibit I—1 or I-5 land may be made by Aerojet or its successors unless it contains a covenant that the grantee and any successor shall comply with the restrictions of this Paragraph, that the grantee will not interfere with the performance of obligations or exercise of rights pursuant to this Decree, and that the grantee will subject itself to the jurisdiction of this Court in this action to enforce the restrictions of this Paragraph. The covenant shall be in full force and effect until such time as Aerojet or a successor records with the Recorder a waiver or waivers by Plaintiffs of the restrictions in a form acceptable for recording, or an order of the Court eliminating the restrictions.

     (H) DHS may propose the addition of a portion of Exhibit I-1 or I-5 land to Exhibit I-5 or Exhibit I-7 until the Phase II RI/FS report has been approved pursuant to Subparagraph 5(L). If Plaintiffs and Aerojet cannot agree on any proposed addition, the dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Paragraph 20 (Dispute Resolution) and the Plaintiffs shall have the burden of proving the need of the addition. The State shall record with the Recorder a court order incorporating additions to Exhibit I-6 or Exhibit I-7 land pursuant to this Subparagraph (H) within 60 (sixty) days of issuance. Any such addition shall not be effective as to any subsequent grantee unless the order has been timely recorded with the Recorder.

     (I) The Phase II RI/FS Report will address the appropriateness of deed restrictions.

     (J) This Paragraph imposes no restrictions on grants of possessory interest in land by Aerojet made under leases, agreements or other conveyances existing as of the effective date of

this Decree, to the extent that the imposition of such restrictions would violate or change the provisions of any such conveyance.

     (K) At any time, Aerojet or any grantee or successor may petition the Court for removal of the restrictions stated in any or all subparagraphs of this Paragraph as to any or all lands, and any such restriction shall be ordered removed unless the Court finds that, as to Exhibit I-6 or Exhibit I-7 land, there is a need to retain such restriction to prevent a significant hazard to present or future public health by reason of discharges of hazardous substances occurring before the effective date of this Decree, or that as to Exhibit I-1 or I-5 land, there is need to retain it to prevent interference with the performance of Aerojet’s obligations pursuant to this Decree.

     (L) Recording by Aerojet or a successor with the Recorder of an approval, order or notice specified below in this Subparagraph (L) shall conclusively establish that Aerojet and any subsequent grantee is free of any restrictions under the Order released by said approval, order or notice:

          (1) Approval by DHS or Plaintiffs, as appropriate, of a grant, use, or construction;

          (2) An order of the Court permitting such grant, use, or construction;

          (3) A notice that Plaintiffs do not object to the grant, use or construction (notice of non-objection), with proof of service of such notice on Plaintiffs, to which notice of non-objection Plaintiffs do not, within 45 days of service, record in the office of the County Recorder a notice that an objection had been timely made;

          (4) A notice that the obligations have terminated pursuant to Paragraph 26 of the Decree to which notice Plaintiffs do not, within twenty (20) days of service, record a notice that such obligations have not so terminated; or

          (5) A Court Order that the obligations have terminated pursuant to Paragraph 26 of the Decree.

     (M) As used in this Paragraph, “grantee” includes “lessee” and “grant” includes “lease.”

     (N) wherever it is provided in this Paragraph that notice shall be given to DHS, it shall be sent to the person(s) on the most recent “Designation of person(s) to be notified regarding restrictions on Aerojet use and transfer of land’ as provided to Aerojet by DHS.

Sections 9601, et seq. (“CERCLA”) the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Sections 6901, et seq. (“RCRA”), the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. Sections 2601, et seq., the Clean Water Act, as amended, 33 U.S.C. Sections 1251, et seq., the Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Sections 7401, et seq., and analogous state statutes (collectively, “Environmental Statutes”) and the following:

               (a) In the event Lessee shall, on, at or about the Premises, use, store, or generate or permit or suffer the use, storage, or generation of any Hazardous Substance, then Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall comply with all applicable Environmental Statutes, rules, regulations, orders, and decrees relating to the same.

Any election by Lessor to take such steps shall not constitute a waiver or irreversible election of any rights or remedies. Regardless whether Lessor or Lessee is required to, or does, undertake such action, Lessee agrees to defend, pay and to indemnify and protect Lessor (to the extent that the Release occurred after the Term Commencement Date, or to the extent that is it is not a Pre-Term Environmental Liability) from and against all costs, expenses, and liabilities, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, expert and consultant fees, fines, and penalties, as and when incurred by Lessor with respect to such Release or threat of Release of any Hazardous Substance and any response thereto undertaken by the other.

               (c) Lessee shall, at all times, indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Lessor and any lender of Lessor, including, with respect to Lessor, any mortgage holder, against and from any and all claims, liens, suits, actions, debts, damages, costs, losses, liabilities, obligations, judgments, and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs, expert and consultant fees, attorneys’ fees, including those incurred on appeal, fines, penalties, and damage to, or loss suffered by, Lessor, or the Aerojet Site or any portion thereof), of any nature whatsoever, arising from or relating to (i) Lessee’s failure to perform the obligations required under this Section 5.1; (ii) a Release of any Hazardous Substance that occurs in connection with Lessee’s activities or the activities of any of its employees, agents, representatives, lessees, sublessees, licensees or contractors to the extent that the Release occurred after the Term Commencement Date, or to the extent that is it is not a Pre-Term Environmental Liability, on or about the Premises or on or about the Aerojet Site, including, but not limited to, the Roadways; (iii) the threat of a Release of any Hazardous Substance occurring in connection with Lessee’s activities or the activities of any of its employees, agents, representatives, lessees, sublessees, licensees or contractors on or about the Premises or on or about the Aerojet Site, including, but not limited to, the Roadways to the extent that the threatened Release occurred after the Term Commencement Date, or to the extent that is it is not a Pre-Term Environmental Liability; or (iv) the presence of any Hazardous Substance at the Premises which is not a Pre-Term Environmental Liability. Lessee’s obligations under the Lease shall arise whether or not any Governmental Authority or individual has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Substance.

               (d) Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall be construed to make Lessee liable in any way for any Release or the presence of any Hazardous Substance affecting the Premises occurring prior to the Term Commencement Date, or anyone claiming by, through or under Lessee, or anyone by, through or under whom Lessee claims, except to the extent any of such parties or their agents, employees, representatives, licensees, invitees, contractors or the like caused the Release. By making the covenants contained in this Section 5.1, Lessee does not undertake any obligation with respect to any environmental condition that is not attributable to Lessee’s activities or the activities of one or more of Lessee’s employees, agents, representatives, sublessees, licensees or contractors on or about the Premises, including, but not limited to, the contamination of groundwater underlying the Demised Land as is the subject of the Partial Consent Decree.

               (e) Lessee shall provide all relevant information regarding such Hazardous Substances, including, without limitation, its Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), to (i) Lessor, and (ii) emergency personnel such as fireman and hazardous materials teams immediately upon the occurrence of a Release, fire, casualty or other occurrence in, on or about the Premises.

               (f) Lessee agrees to permit Lessor and its authorized representatives to enter, inspect and assess the Premises and Lessee’s records at reasonable times for the purpose of determining Lessee’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.1. Such inspections and assessments may include obtaining samples and performing tests of building materials, soil, surface water, groundwater or other media. Any activity taken by Lessor pursuant to this Section 5.1(f) shall minimize the negative impact on Lessee’s operations.

               (g) Upon the expiration or termination of the Lease, Lessee agrees to pay, defend, protect, and indemnify Lessor from and against all costs, expenses, and liabilities associated with the investigation, reconnaissance, remediation, removal, and disposal of any and all Hazardous Substances that: (i) are not otherwise Pre-Term Environmental Liabilities; or (ii) are not the result of Lessor’s activities or the activities of any employee, agents, representatives, lessees, licensees or contractors of Lessor in order to return the Premises to the condition existing as of the Term Commencement Date and to save Lessor harmless therefrom.

               (h) Lessor shall, at all times, indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Lessee (and its permitted subtenants, assignees, successors and assigns) and any lender of such parties including any mortgage holder, against and from any and all claims, liens, suits, actions, debts, damages, costs, losses, liabilities, obligations, judgments, and expenses (including, without limitation, court costs, expert and consultant fees, attorneys’ fees, including those incurred on appeal, fines, penalties, and damage to, or loss suffered by, Lessee, or the Demised Land), of any nature whatsoever, arising from or relating to Pre-Term Environmental Liabilities.

     The obligation of Seller to consummate the sale of the Property as contemplated by this Agreement is subject to the fulfillment of each of the following conditions (in addition to such other items as are set forth elsewhere in this Agreement as conditions to Seller’s obligations to close), any or all of which may be waived in whole or in part by Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law:

     (a) Deposit of Funds. Buyer shall have deposited into Escrow the Purchase Price, subject to adjustment for any prorations and credits provided hereunder, and all other monies required to be deposited by Buyer hereunder.

     (c) Payment of Note and Earn Out.

     (d) Buyer’s Compliance. Buyer shall have performed and satisfied in all material respects the covenants and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement to the extent such covenants and obligations are to be performed or satisfied as of the Closing Date.

     The conditions set forth in this Section 4.1 are solely for the benefit of Seller and may be waived only by Seller. Seller shall at all times have the right to waive any condition.

     Provided that all of the conditions precedent to the Closing have been satisfied or waived, the Closing shall be held, and delivery of all items to be made at the Closing under the terms of this Agreement shall be made, at the offices of the Escrow Holder on a date to be designated by Buyer in its Purchase Notice (as defined in the Ground Lease), but not fewer than six (6) months or more than twelve (12) months after delivery of the Purchase Notice, or such earlier date and time as Buyer and Seller may mutually agree upon in writing (the “ Closing Date ”). At the Closing, Seller shall convey, by way of a Deed, fee simple absolute title to the Property, subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

     5.2 Seller’s Deliveries

     At the Closing, or at such later date as may be indicated below for any specific item, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer through the Escrow or otherwise, each of the following instruments and documents, duly executed and acknowledged by Seller, as appropriate:

     (a) Grant Deed in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “ Deed ”), subject only to the Permitted Exceptions.

     (b) If requested by Buyer, a commercially reasonable form of lease termination (the “ Lease Termination Agreement ”), provided that the effectiveness of the Lease Termination Agreement shall be expressly conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing.

     (d) Seller’s Closing Certification, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B , to be provided by Seller pursuant to Section 3.4 above.

     (f) An affidavit pursuant to Section 1445(b)(2) of the Federal Code, and on which Buyer is entitled to rely, from Seller that it is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Federal Code, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C attached hereto (the “ FIRPTA Affidavit ”). If Seller fails to deliver such FIRPTA Affidavit, Buyer shall not be excused from its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, but rather may deduct and withhold from the Purchase Price payable to Seller an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the “amount realized on the disposition” of any “United States real property interest” in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, all as defined and required by the Federal

Withholding Provisions. Any amount so withheld shall be deemed to have been paid by Buyer as a part of the Purchase Price. Should Seller deliver a withholding certificate issued by the IRS pursuant to the Federal Withholding Provisions which permits Buyer to withhold an amount less than 10% of the amount realized on the disposition, Buyer shall withhold such lesser amount, and the amount so withheld shall be deemed to have been paid by Buyer as part of the Purchase Price.

     (g) Either (i) a properly executed certificate (herein, a “ Qualifying Certificate ”) under Section 18662 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code (“ CALFIRPTA ”) certifying that Seller is not an “individual” seller under CALFIRPTA and either (A) has a permanent place of business in California, or (B) is qualified to do business in California, or (C) is exempt from California withholding on other grounds set forth in such certification, or (ii) evidence that the California Franchise Tax Board has authorized a partial reduction in the amount required to be withheld from the Purchase Price payable to Seller or a complete exemption from such withholding. If Seller fails to deliver such Qualifying Certificate or other evidence authorizing a complete exemption from such withholding, Buyer shall not be excused from its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, but rather shall deduct and withhold from the portion of the Purchase Price payable to Seller, and instead pay to the California Franchise Tax Board, an amount equal to three and one-third percent (3 1/3%) of the “sales price of the California real property conveyed” by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated herein or such lesser amount of withholding as may be expressly authorized by the California Franchise Tax Board, as provided and required by the California Withholding Provisions. Any amount so withheld and paid to the California Franchise Tax Board shall be deemed to have been paid by Buyer as a part of the Purchase Price. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it has received written notice of the CALFIRPTA withholding requirements.

     (h) A Designation Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D.

     (i) Such other customary documents and instruments as may be required by any other provision of this Agreement or as may reasonably be required to carry out the terms and intent of this Agreement; provided that Seller shall not be obligated to cause the delivery of any such instrument or document that would increase or expand Seller’s obligations or liability under this Agreement.

     5.3 Buyer’s Deliveries

     At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller each of the following instruments and documents, duly executed and acknowledged by Buyer, as appropriate:

instrument or document that would increase or expand Buyer’s obligations or liability under this Agreement.

6. Easements

     Promptly following mutual execution of this Agreement, and in any event prior to Closing, Seller and Buyer shall execute and cause to be recorded in the Official Records of Sacramento County, California easement agreement(s), that are appurtenant to and run with the Land, to the extent the same may be necessary to memorialize the then current rights and obligations of Seller, as Lessor, and Buyer, as Lessee, as contemplated by Sections 2.2, 4.1(a), 4.1(b), 4.4 and Exhibit C of the Ground Lease (the “ Easements ”). The Easements shall be in form and substance as may be necessary for First American Title Insurance Company, or a title company reasonably acceptable to Buyer, to include the same as insured easement parcel(s) in the legal description of the title insurance policy to be issued to Buyer at Closing and sufficient for such title company to issue a CLTA 103.4 or 103.7 endorsement (or its successor endorsement).

7. Prorations and Adjustments

     (a) At least ten (10) days before the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver, or cause Escrow Holder to prepare and deliver, to Buyer an unaudited statement for the Property (the “ Preliminary Proration Statement ”) showing prorations for rents and any additional charges and expenses payable under the Ground Lease (but only to the extent collected before the Closing Date), calculated as of 12:01 a.m. on the Closing Date, on the basis of a 365-day year. Buyer and Seller shall agree upon any adjustments to be made to the Preliminary Proration Statement before the Closing, and at the Closing, Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall receive a credit equal to the net amount due Buyer or Seller, as applicable, pursuant to the Preliminary Proration Statement as finally agreed upon by Buyer and Seller.

8. Condemnation

     In the event of any condemnation of any portion of the Property there shall be a credit against the Purchase Price due hereunder equal to the amount of any condemnation awards collected by Seller as a result of any condemnation, or if any such award exceeds the Purchase Price, then such amounts shall be deposited into escrow by Seller for the account of Buyer. If the awards have not been collected as of the Closing, then such awards shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing.

9. Default

     (a) Buyer’s Default. If the Closing does not occur as a result of Buyer’s default hereunder, then provided Seller is not in default hereunder, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to Buyer, whereupon the Deposit shall be paid to Seller as liquidated damages, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy on account of such default hereunder by Buyer; provided, however, that this provision will not limit Seller’s right to receive reimbursement for attorneys’ fees pursuant to Section 14.1 below, nor waive or affect any provisions of this Agreement which expressly state that they shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder, except for provisions of this Agreement which expressly state that they shall survive

the termination of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that Seller’s actual damages in the event of Buyer’s default would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine. After negotiation, the parties have agreed that, considering all the circumstances existing on the date of this Agreement, the amount of the Deposit is a reasonable estimate of the damages that Seller would incur in such event. The payment of the Deposit to Seller as liquidated damages under the circumstances provided for herein is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty within the meaning of Sections 3275 or 3369 of the California Civil Code, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller pursuant to Sections 1671, 1676 and 1677 of the California Civil Code. By signing this Agreement, each party specifically confirms the accuracy of the statements made above, the reasonableness of the amount of liquidated damages agreed upon, and the fact that each party was represented by counsel who explained, at the time this agreement was made, the consequences of this liquidated damages provision.

     (b) Seller’s Default. If the Closing does not occur as a result of Seller’s default hereunder, then, provided Buyer is not in default hereunder, Buyer may, at its sole election, proceed with one of the following mutually exclusive alternatives:

          (i) waive such default and proceed with the Closing; provided, however, that this provision will not waive or affect any of Seller’s other obligations under this Agreement to be performed after the Closing with respect to any matter other than such default;

          (ii) terminate this Agreement, whereupon the Deposit shall be returned and paid to Buyer, and Buyer shall be entitled to recover its costs (including, but not limited to, legal and other professional fees) incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement, and otherwise neither party shall have any further liability or obligation to the other hereunder, except for provisions of this Agreement which expressly state that they shall survive the termination of this Agreement; or

          (iii) file in any court of competent jurisdiction an action for specific performance to cause Seller to convey the Property to Buyer pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; but Buyer shall not be entitled to recover monetary damages from Seller in connection with such default; provided, however, that this provision will not limit Buyer’s right to receive reimbursement for attorneys’ fees pursuant to Section 14.1 below, nor waive or affect any of Seller’s other obligations under this Agreement to be performed after the Closing with respect to any matter other than such default.

10. Expenses

     (a) All documentary stamp taxes county transfer taxes shall be borne and paid by the parties as is customary practice in Sacramento County. All recording fees and city transfer taxes shall be borne and paid by the parties as is customary practice in Sacramento County.

     (b) All Escrow and Closing costs charged by the Escrow Holder, and any investment charges or escrow fees incurred with respect to the Escrow shall be borne and paid by the parties as is customary practice in Sacramento County.

     (c) Buyer shall pay the premium and all other costs and expenses associated with any title insurance Buyer chooses to have issued at or about the Closing. Seller shall not be required to pay or contribute toward any such premium, cost or expense.

     (d) Except as provided in Section 9(b)(ii), each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees in connection with the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder. Each party shall pay its own costs of preparing and/or reviewing the Preliminary Prorations Statement in connection with this Agreement.

     (e) Other costs, charges, and expenses shall be borne and paid as provided in this Agreement, or in the absence of such provision, in accordance with the custom in the County of Sacramento.

11. Brokers

     (a) Buyer represents to Seller, and Seller represents to Buyer that there is no broker, finder, or intermediary of any kind with whom such party has dealt in connection with this transaction.

     (b) Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer, the partners, members, trustees, shareholders, directors and officers of Buyer, any party owning a direct or indirect interest in Buyer, the affiliates of Buyer, and the partners, members, trustees, shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing parties (the “ Buyer-Related Parties ”), from and against all claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, and liabilities which may be asserted or recovered for brokerage or finders fees, commissions, or other compensation in connection with the transaction contemplated under this Agreement claimed by any party other than Broker to be owing to such party due to any dealings between Seller and the party claiming such fee, commission or compensation, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incident thereto. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller-Related Parties, from and against all claims, demands, causes of action, judgments, and liabilities which may be asserted or recovered for brokerage or finders fees, commissions, or other compensation in connection with the transaction contemplated under this Agreement claimed by any party other than the Broker to be owing to such party due to any dealings between Buyer and the party claiming such fee, commission or compensation, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incident thereto. The parties hereto agree that the foregoing obligations of indemnification shall survive the Closing hereunder or the expiration or termination of this Agreement, however caused.

12. Assignment

     This Agreement and all or any rights hereunder may be assigned by either party upon prior notice to the other party; provided, however, that no such assignment shall relieve the assigning party from its obligations, representations, warranties, indemnities or covenants under this Agreement and no such assignment and assumption shall diminish the other party’s rights, remedies and defenses under this Agreement or applicable law generally against the assigning party or its assignee, as the case may be.
