DIRECT EXPENSES

8.1                               Tenant’s Obligation to Reimburse.  As Additional Rent, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share (specified in Section G of the Summary) of the amount of Direct Expenses paid or incurred in any calendar year.  The following provision shall apply to the foregoing obligation of Tenant:

A.                                    Payment shall be made by whichever of the following methods is from time to time designated by Landlord, and Landlord reserves the right to change the method of payment at any time in its sole and absolute discretion.

Alternatively, (i) Landlord shall deliver to Tenant Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the Direct Expenses it anticipates will be paid or incurred for the calendar year in question; (ii) during such calendar year, Tenant shall pay such Tenant’s Share of the estimated Direct Expenses in advance in equal monthly installments due with each installment of Base Monthly Rent; and (iii) within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of such calendar year (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practical), Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement in reasonable detail of the actual Direct Expenses for the just ending calendar year.  If Tenant’s estimated payments are less than Tenant’s Share of actual Direct Expenses as shown by the applicable statement, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery of such statement.  If Tenant shall have overpaid Tenant’s Share of actual Direct Expenses, then Landlord shall credit such overpayment toward Tenant’s next installment payment of Tenant’s Share of estimated Direct Expenses.  When the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of actual Direct Expenses for the calendar year in which this Lease expires or sooner terminates, Tenant shall, even though this Lease has terminated, pay the difference to Landlord within ten (10) business days after delivery of the final statement.  Conversely, any overpayment by Tenant shall be rebated by Landlord to Tenant concurrently with the delivery of such final statement.

D.                                    All additional costs and expenses incurred by Landlord with respect to the operation, protection, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Project which would be considered a current expense (and not a capital expenditure but subject to Tenant’s obligations under Section 5.4) pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles; provided, however, that Direct Expenses shall not include any of the following: (i) debt payments on any loans affecting the Project; (ii) depreciation of any buildings or any major systems of building service equipment within the Project; (iii) leasing commissions; and (iv) the cost of tenant improvements installed for the exclusive use of other tenants of the Project.

10.1                        Limitation on Landlord’s Liability.  Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, nor shall Tenant be entitled to terminate this Lease or to any abatement of rent (except as expressly provided otherwise herein), for any injury to Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, damage to the property of Tenant or Tenant’s Agents, or loss to Tenant’s business resulting from any cause, including, without limitation, any of the following:  (i) failure, interruption or installation of any HVAC or other utility system or service; (ii) failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any utilities or services when such failure or delay is caused by fire or other peril, the elements, labor disturbances of any character, or any other accidents or any other conditions; (iii) limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction on the use of water or electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any services or utility serving the Project; (iv) vandalism or forcible entry by unauthorized persons or the criminal act of any person; or (v) penetration of water into or onto any portion of the Premises or the Building through roof leaks or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 9.4 and Section 10.2, Landlord shall be liable for any such injury, damage or loss which is caused solely by Landlord’s willful misconduct or gross negligence of which Landlord has actual notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure but which it fails to so cure; provided, however, notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, in no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for lost profits, consequential damages and/or incidental damages of any kind or nature.

10.2                        Limitation on Tenant’s Recourse.  If Landlord is a corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, unincorporated association or other form of business entity:  (i) the obligations of Landlord shall not constitute personal obligations of the officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, managers, owners, stockholders, or other principals or representatives of such business entity, and (ii) Tenant shall not have recourse to the assets of such of officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, managers, owners, stockholders, principals or representatives except to the extent of their interest in the Project.  Tenant hereby waives and releases the officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, managers, owners, stockholders, principals or representative from personal liability for the obligations of Landlord under this Lease, and Tenant shall have recourse only to the interest of Landlord in the Project for the satisfaction of the obligations of Landlord hereunder and shall not have recourse to any other assets of Landlord for the satisfaction of such obligations.

10.3                        Indemnification of Landlord.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend Landlord, and its Agents, with competent counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (and Landlord agrees to accept counsel that any insurer requires be used), from all liability, penalties, losses, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action, claims and/or judgments arising by reason of any death, bodily injury, personal injury or property damage resulting from (i) any cause or causes whatsoever (other than solely by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Landlord of which Landlord has had notice and a reasonable time to cure, but which Landlord has failed to cure) occurring in or about or resulting from an occurrence in or about the Premises during the Lease Term, (ii) the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or its Agents, wherever the same may occur, or (iii) an Event of Tenant’s Default.  The provisions of this Section 10.3 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

10.4                        Indemnification of Tenant.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, but subject to the express limitations on liability contained in this Lease (including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3), Landlord shall defend, indemnify, protect, save and hold harmless Tenant, its agents and any and all affiliates of Tenant, from and against any and all Damages arising either before or after the Commencement Date from (a) the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its contractors, employees or authorized agents in connection with the operation, maintenance or repair of the Project; and (b) any other matters for which Landlord has agreed to indemnify Tenant pursuant to any other provision of this Lease.  The provisions of this Section 10.4 shall expressly survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE 11

DAMAGE TO PREMISES

11.1                        Landlord’s Duty to Restore.  If the Premises are damaged by any peril after the Effective Date, Landlord shall restore the Premises unless the Lease is terminated by Landlord pursuant to Section 11.2 or by Tenant pursuant to Section 11.3.  All insurance proceeds available from the fire and property damage insurance carried by Landlord pursuant to Section 9.2 shall be paid to and become the property of Landlord.  If this Lease is terminated pursuant to either Section 11.2 or Section 11.3, then all insurance proceeds available from insurance carried by Tenant which covers loss to property that is Landlord’s property or would become Landlord’s property on expiration or termination of this Lease shall be paid to and become the property of Landlord.  If this Lease is not so terminated then upon receipt of the insurance proceeds (if the loss is covered by insurance) and the issuance of all necessary governmental permits, Landlord shall commence and diligently prosecute to completion the restoration of the Premises, to the extent then allowed by Law, to substantially the same condition in which the Premises were immediately prior to such damage.  Landlord’s obligation to restore shall be limited to the Premises and interior improvements constructed by Landlord as they existed as of the Commencement Date, excluding any Tenant’s Alterations, Trade Fixtures and/or personal property constructed or installed by Tenant in the Premises.  Tenant shall forthwith replace or fully repair all Tenant’s Alterations and Trade Fixtures installed by Tenant and existing at the time of such damage or destruction, and all insurance proceeds received by Tenant from the insurance carried by it pursuant to Section 9.1A(2) shall be used for such purpose.

11.2                        Landlord’s Right to Terminate.  Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which right may be exercised by delivery to Tenant of a written notice of election to terminate within forty-five (45) days after the date of such damage:

A.                                    The Project is damaged by an Insured Peril to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore exceeds ten percent (10%) of the then actual replacement cost thereof, or the Building in which the Premises is located is damaged to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of the then actual replacement cost thereof;

B.                                    Either the Project or the Building is damaged by an Uninsured Peril to such an event that the estimated cost to restore exceeds two percent (2%) of the then actual replacement cost of the Building;

C.                                    The Premises are damaged by any peril within twelve (12) months of the last day of the Lease Term to such an extent that the estimated cost to restore equals or exceeds an amount equal to six (6) times the Base Monthly Rent then due; or

D.                                    Either the Project or the Building is damaged by any peril and, because of the Laws then in force, (i) cannot be restored at reasonable cost to substantially the same condition in which it was prior to such damage, or (ii) cannot be used for the same use being made thereof before such damage if restored as required by this Article.

E.                                     As used herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings: (i) the term “Insured Peril” shall mean a peril actually insured against for which the insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord (and which are not required to be paid to any Lender) are sufficient (except for any “deductible” amount specified by such insurance) to restore the Project under then existing Laws to the condition existing immediately prior to the damage; and (ii) the term “Uninsured Peril” shall mean any peril which is not an Insured Peril.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the “deductible” for earthquake or flood insurance exceeds two percent (2%) of the replacement cost of the improvements insured, such peril shall, at Landlord’s election, be deemed an “Uninsured Peril” for purposes of this Lease.

11.3                        Tenant’s Right to Terminate.  If the Premises are damaged by any peril and Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease or is not entitled to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 11.2, then as soon as reasonably practicable, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with the written opinion of Landlord’s architect or construction consultant as to when the restoration work required of Landlord may be completed.  Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which right may be exercised only by delivery to Landlord of a written notice of election to terminate within seven (7) days after Tenant receives from Landlord the estimate of the time needed to complete such restoration.

A.                                    The Premises are damaged by any peril and, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord’s architect or construction consultant, the restoration of the Premises cannot be substantially completed within two hundred seventy (270) days after the date of such damage; or

B.                                    The Premises are damaged by any peril within twelve (12) months of the last day of the Lease Term and, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord’s architect or construction consultant, the restoration of the Premises cannot be substantially completed within ninety (90) days after the date of such damage and such damage renders unusable more than thirty percent (30%) of the Premises.

11.4                        Abatement of Rent.  In the event of damage to the Premises which does not result in the termination of this Lease, while Landlord repairs or restores the Premises or access or parking thereto, the Base Monthly Rent and Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses shall be temporarily abated during the period of restoration in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Premises is impaired by such damage, but in no event shall such abatement exceed the rental interruption insurance proceeds actually received by Landlord.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of Tenant’s business or property or for any inconvenience or annoyance caused by such damage or restoration.  Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter enacted.

ARTICLE 12

CONDEMNATION

12.1                        Total Taking - Premises.  If title to the Premises or so much thereof is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain so that reconstruction of the Premises will not result in the Premises being reasonably suitable for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the uses and purposes permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall terminate as of the date possession of the Premises or part thereof is so taken.

12.2                        Partial Taking - Project.  If title to ten percent (10%) of more of the Project is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date possession of such portion of the Project is so taken by providing Tenant with written notice thereof no less than sixty (60) days prior to possession being so taken.

12.3                        Partial Taking - Premises.  If any part of the Premises is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain and the remaining part is reasonably suitable for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the uses permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall, as to the part so taken, terminate as of the date possession of such part of the Premises is taken and Base Monthly Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion that the floor area of the portion of the Premises so taken (less any addition thereto by reason of any reconstruction) bears to the original floor area of the Premises, as reasonably determined by Landlord.  Landlord shall, at its own cost and expense, make all necessary repairs and alterations to the Premises so as to make the portion of the Premises not taken a complete architectural unit.  Such work shall not, however, exceed the scope of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing the Premises.  If severance damages from the condemning authority are not available to Landlord in sufficient amounts to permit such restoration, Landlord may terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant.  Base Monthly Rent due and payable hereunder shall be temporarily abated during such restoration period in proportion to the degree to which there is substantial interference with Tenant’s use of the Premises, as reasonably determined by Landlord.  Each party hereby waives the provisions of Sections 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and any present or future law allowing either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the Building or the Premises.

12.4                        No Apportionment of Award.  No award for any partial or total taking shall be apportioned, it being agreed and understood that Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award for any partial or entire taking.  Tenant assigns to Landlord its interest in any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant arising in or to the same or any part thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in or require Tenant to assign to Landlord any separate award made to Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s Trade Fixtures, for the interruption of Tenant’s business or its moving costs, or for the loss of goodwill.

12.5                        Temporary Taking.  No temporary taking of the Premises (which for purposes hereof shall mean a taking of all or any part of the Premises for one hundred eighty (180) days or less) shall terminate this Lease or give Tenant any right to abatement or reduction in Rent.  Any award made to Tenant by reason of such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Tenant and Landlord shall not be entitled to share therein.  Each party agrees to execute and deliver to the other all instruments that may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section 12.5.

12.6                        Sale Under Threat of Condemnation.  A sale made in good faith to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes of this Article 12.

ARTICLE 13

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

13.1                        Events of Tenant’s Default.  Tenant shall be in default of its obligations under this Lease if any of the following events occurs (an “Event of Tenant’s Default”):

A.                                    Tenant shall have failed to pay any Rent when due, and such failure is not cured within three (3) business days after delivery of written notice from Landlord or Landlord’s counsel specifying such failure to pay; or

B.                                    Tenant shall have failed to perform any term, covenant, or condition of this Lease except those requiring the payment of Rent, and Tenant shall have failed to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord specifying the nature of such breach where such breach could reasonably be cured within said thirty (30) day period, or if such breach could not be reasonably cured within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall have failed to commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter continue with due diligence to prosecute such cure to completion within such time period as is reasonably needed but not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of Landlord’s notice; or

C.                                    Tenant shall have sublet the Premises or assigned its interest in the Lease in violation of the provisions contained in Article 14; or

D.                                    Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises or left the Premises substantially vacant; or

ARIDIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

E.                                     The occurrence of the following: (i) the making by Tenant of any general arrangements or assignments for the benefit of creditors: (ii) Tenant becomes a “debtor” as defined in 11 U.S.C. Section 101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days; provided, however, in the event that any provision of this Section 13.1E is contrary to any applicable Law, such provision shall be of no force or effect; or

F.                                      Tenant shall have failed to deliver documents required of it pursuant to Section 3.6, Section 15.4 or Section 15.6 within the time periods specified therein; or

G.                                    Chronic delinquency by Tenant in the payment of any Rent.  For purposes of this Lease, “Chronic delinquency” shall mean failure by Tenant to pay within five (5) days of the due date any Rent for any three (3) months (consecutive or non-consecutive) during any twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term.  This section shall in no way limit, nor be construed as a waiver of the rights and remedies of Landlord provided hereunder or by law in the event of even one (1) instance of delinquency in the payment of Rent by Tenant.  In the event of chronic delinquency, at Landlord’s option, Landlord shall have the right, in addition to all other rights under this Lease and at law, to require that all Rent be paid by Tenant on a quarterly basis, in advance.  In addition, the occurrence of such chronic delinquency shall automatically void any options granted to Tenant under this Lease.

13.2                        Landlord’s Remedies.  If an Event of Tenant’s Default occurs, Landlord shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by any Law or otherwise provided in this Lease, to which Landlord may resort to cumulatively or in the alternative:

A.                                    Landlord may keep this Lease in effect and enforce by an action at law or in equity all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including (i) the right to recover the rent and other sums as they become due by appropriate legal action, (ii) the right to make payments required of Tenant or perform Tenant’s obligations and be reimbursed by Tenant for the cost thereof with interest at the Agreed Interest Rate from the date the sum is paid by Landlord until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant, and (iii) the remedies of injunctive relief and specific performance to compel Tenant to perform its obligations under this Lease.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease, in the event of a breach of an obligation by Tenant which results in a condition which poses an imminent danger to safety of persons or damage to property, an unsightly condition visible from the exterior of the Building, or a threat to insurance coverage, then if Tenant does not cure such breach within three (3) days after delivery to it of written notice from Landlord identifying the breach, Landlord may cure the breach of Tenant and be reimbursed by Tenant for the cost thereof with interest at the Agreed Interest Rate from the date the sum is paid by Landlord until Landlord is reimbursed by Tenant.

B.                                    Landlord may enter the Premises and re-lease them to third parties for Tenant’s account for any period, whether shorter or longer than the remaining Lease Term.  Tenant shall be liable immediately to Landlord for all costs Landlord incurs in releasing the Premises, including, without limitation, brokers’ commissions, expenses of altering and preparing the Premises required by the releasing.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord the rent and other sums due under this Lease on the date the rent is due, less the rent and other sums Landlord received from any releasing.  No act by Landlord allowed by this subparagraph shall terminate this Lease unless Landlord notices Tenant in writing that Landlord elects to terminate this Lease. Notwithstanding any releasing without termination, Landlord may later elect to terminate this Lease because of the default by Tenant.

C.                                    Landlord may terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice of termination, in which event this Lease shall terminate on the date set forth for termination in such notice. Any termination under this Section 13.2C shall not relieve Tenant from its obligation to pay sums then due Landlord or from any claim against Tenant for damages or rent previously accrued or then accruing.  In no event shall any one or more of the following actions by Landlord, in the absence of a written election by Landlord to terminate this Lease, constitute a termination of this Lease: (i) appointment of a receiver or keeper in order to protect Landlord’s interest hereunder; (ii) consent to any subletting of the Premises or assignment of this Lease by Tenant, whether pursuant to the provisions hereof or otherwise; or (iii) any other action by Landlord or Landlord’s Agents intended to mitigate the adverse effects of any breach of this Lease by Tenant, including, without limitation, any action taken to maintain and preserve the Premises or any action taken to relet the Premises or any portions thereof to the event such actions do not affect a termination of Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises.

D.                                    In the event Tenant breaches this Lease and abandons the Premises, this Lease shall not terminate unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of its election to so terminate this Lease.  No act by or on behalf of Landlord intended to mitigate the adverse effect of such breach, including those described by Section 13.2C, shall constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice of termination.  Should Landlord not terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice, Landlord may enforce all its rights and remedies under this Lease and/or any Laws, including, without limitation, the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).  Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the express standards and conditions set forth in Article 14 below relating to assignments of this Lease and sublettings of the Premises are reasonable at the time this Lease is executed by Tenant.

E.                                     In the event Landlord terminates this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled, at Landlord’s election, to damages in an amount as set forth in California Civil Code Section 1951.2 as in effect on the Effective Date.  For purposes of computing damages

ARIDIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1951.2, (i) an interest rate equal to the Agreed Interest Rate shall be used where permitted, and (iii) the term “rent” includes Base Monthly Rent and Additional Rent.  Such damages shall include, without limitation:

(1)                                 The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%); and

(2)                                 Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including the following: (i) expenses for cleaning, repairing or restoring the Premises; (ii) expenses for altering, remodeling or otherwise improving the Premises for the purpose of reletting, including installation of leasehold improvements (whether such installation be funded by a reduction of rent, direct payment or allowance to a new tenant, or otherwise); (iii) broker’s fees, advertising costs and other expenses of reletting the Premises; (iv) costs of carrying the Premises, such as taxes, insurance premiums, utilities and security precautions; (v) expenses in retaking possession of the Premises; and (vi) attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by Landlord in retaking possession of the Premises and in releasing the Premises or otherwise incurred as a result of Tenant’s default.

F.                                      Nothing in this Section 13.2 shall limit Landlord’s right to indemnification from Tenant as provided in Section 7.2 and Section 10.3.  Any notice given by Landlord in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 13.1A or 13.1B above shall also satisfy the notice requirements of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 regarding unlawful detainer proceedings.

13.3                        Waiver.  One party’s consent to or approval of any act by the other party requiring the first party’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the first party’s consent to or approval of any subsequent similar act by the other party.  The receipt by Landlord of any rent or payment with or without knowledge of the breach of any other provision hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any such breach unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord.  No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy accruing to either party upon any breach by the other party under this Lease shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver of any such breach theretofore or thereafter occurring.  The waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Lease shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or of any other provisions herein contained.

13.4                        Limitation On Exercise of Rights.  At any time that an Event of Tenant’s Default has occurred and remains uncured, (i) it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to deny or withhold any consent or approval requested of it by Tenant which Landlord would otherwise be obligated to give, and (ii) Tenant may not exercise any option to extend, right to terminate this Lease, or other right granted to it by this Lease which would otherwise be available to it.

13.5                        Waiver by Tenant of Certain Remedies.  Tenant waives the provisions of Sections 1932(1), 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar or successor law regarding Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease or to make repairs and deduct the expenses of such repairs from the rent due under this Lease.  Tenant hereby waives any right of redemption or relief from forfeiture under the laws of the State of California, or under any other present or future law, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 1174 and 1179 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

13.6                        Landlord’s Default.  Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by it hereunder unless and until it has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Tenant to Landlord (and any Lender who have provided Tenant with notice) specifying the nature of such default; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be deemed to be in default if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.  Tenant expressly waives any right to terminate this Lease or to claim a constructive eviction by reason of any default by Landlord hereunder.

13.7                        Limitation of Actions Against Landlord.  Any claim, demand or right of any kind by Tenant which is based upon or arises in connection with this Lease shall be barred unless Tenant commences an action thereon within six (6) months after the date that the act, omission, event or default upon which the claim, demand or right in question arises, has occurred.

ARTICLE 14

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING,

14.1                        Transfer By Tenant.  The following provisions shall apply to any assignment, subletting or other transfer by Tenant or any subtenant or assignee or other successor in interest of the original Tenant (collectively referred to in this Section 14.1 as “Tenant”):

A.                                    Tenant shall not do any of the following (collectively referred to herein as a “Transfer”), whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (subject to Section 14.1B and Section 14.1C below):  (i) sublet all or any part of the Premises or allow it to be sublet, occupied or used by any person or entity other than Tenant; or (ii) assign its interest in this Lease.  In no event shall Tenant mortgage or encumber the Lease (or otherwise use the Lease as a security device) in any manner, or materially amend or modify an assignment, sublease or other transfer that has been previously approved by Landlord. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all reasonable costs and attorneys’

ARIDIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

fees incurred by Landlord in connection with the evaluation, processing and/or documentation of any requested Transfer, plus an amount equal to one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) as a fee for Landlord’s review whether or not Landlord’s consent is granted. Landlord’s reasonable costs shall include the cost of any review or investigation performed by Landlord or consultant acting on Landlord’s behalf of (i) Hazardous Materials (as defined in Section 7.2E of this Lease) used, stored, released, or disposed of by the potential subtenant or assignee, and/or (ii) violations of Hazardous Materials Law (as defined in Section 7.2E of this lease) by Tenant or the proposed subtenant or assignee.  Any Transfer so approved by Landlord shall not be effective until Tenant has delivered to Landlord an executed counterpart of the document evidencing the Transfer which (i) is in a form reasonably approved by Landlord, (ii) contains the same terms and conditions as stated in Tenant’s notice given to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1B, and (iii) in the case of an assignment of the Lease, contains the agreement of the proposed transferee to assume all obligations of Tenant under this Lease arising after the effective date of such Transfer and to remain jointly and severally liable therefor with Tenant.  Any attempted Transfer without Landlord’s consent shall constitute an Event of Tenant’s Default and shall be voidable at Landlord’s option.  Landlord’s consent to any one Transfer shall not constitute a waiver of the provisions of this Section 14.1 as to any subsequent Transfer or a consent to any subsequent Transfer.  No Transfer, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its personal and primary obligation to pay the rent and to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder.  The acceptance of rent by Landlord from any person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease nor to be a consent to any Transfer.

B.                                    At least thirty (30) days before a proposed Transfer is to become effective, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of the proposed terms of such Transfer and request Landlord’s approval, which notice shall include the following: (i) the name and legal composition of the proposed transferee; (ii) a current financial statement of the transferee, financial statements of the transferee covering the preceding three (3) years if the same exist, and (if available) an audited financial statement of the transferee for a period ending not more than one year prior to the proposed effective date of the Transfer; (iii) the nature of the proposed transferee’s business to be carried out in the Premises; (iv) all consideration to be given on account of the Transfer; (v) a current financial statement of Tenant; and (vi) a completed copy of Landlord’s then-standard Hazardous Materials Questionnaire.  Landlord shall respond in writing to Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent to a Transfer within the later of (i) fifteen (15) business days of receipt of such request together with the required accompanying documentation, or (ii) seven (7) days after Landlord’s receipt of all information which Landlord reasonably requests within seven (7) days after it receives Tenant’s first notice regarding the Transfer in question.  If Landlord fails to respond in writing within said period, Landlord will be deemed to have withheld its consent to such Transfer, provided that if Tenant specifically requests from Landlord, within five (5) days following the expiration of said period a statement of reasons for withholding consent, Landlord shall have thirty (30) days following such request within which to provide Tenant with a written statement of its reasonable objections to the Transfer in question (and, if Landlord fails to provide such statement to Tenant within such thirty (30) day, then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to the Transfer in question).  Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord of any material modification to the proposed terms of such Transfer.

Tenant agrees, by way of example and without limitation, that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to a proposed Transfer if any of the following situations exist or may exist:

(1)                                 Landlord determines that the proposed assignee’s or sublessee’s use of the Premises conflicts with Article 4 above, presents an unacceptable risk, as determined by Landlord, under Section 7.2 above, or conflicts with any other provision under this Lease;

(2)                                 Landlord determines that the proposed assignee or sublessee is not financially responsible as Tenant as of the date of Tenant’s request for consent or as of the effective date of such proposed assignment or subletting;

(3)                                 Landlord determines that the proposed assignee or sublessee lacks sufficient business reputation or experience to conduct on the Premises a business of a type and quality equal to that conducted by Tenant;

(4)                                 Landlord determines that the proposed assignment or subletting would breach a covenant, condition or restriction in some other lease, financing agreement or other agreement relating to the Project, the Building, the Premises or this Lease;

(5)                                 An Event of Tenant’s Default (or any act or omission which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Tenant’s Default) has occurred and is continuing at the time of Tenant’s request for Landlord’s consent, or as of the effective date of such assignment or subletting;

(6)                                 With respect to a proposed assignment, the consideration to be paid by the proposed assignee for such assignment is less than the fair market value thereof (as reasonably determined by Landlord), and, with respect to a proposed subletting, the rent to be paid by the proposed sublessee under the sublease is less than the fair market rental value of the Premises or the applicable portion thereof (as reasonably determined by Landlord);

(7)                                 The proposed assignment or subletting would require alterations, additions or changes to the Premises not otherwise approved by Landlord pursuant to Section 5.2; or

C.                                    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article 14 to the contrary, in the event that Tenant seeks to make any Transfer that is an assignment of this Lease or is a sublease of all or substantially all of the Premises for all or substantially all of the remainder of the Term, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease.  In the event Landlord elects to so terminate this Lease, then the Lease shall so terminate in its entirety (or as to the space to be so sublet) fifteen (15) days after Landlord has notified Tenant in writing of such election.  Upon such termination, Tenant shall be released from any further obligation under this Lease if it is terminated in its entirety (or shall be released from any further obligation under the Lease with respect to the space proposed to be sublet in the case of a proposed partial sublease), except that the foregoing release shall not apply to, and Tenant shall not be released from, (i) any obligations under this Lease accruing prior to such termination, (iii) any obligations under Section 15.2 below relating to the surrender of the Premises or such space proposed to be sublet, as applicable, and (ii) any obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.  Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall execute a separate termination agreement evidencing any termination of this Lease pursuant to this Section 14.1C.

D.                                    If Landlord consents to a Transfer proposed by Tenant, Tenant may enter into such Transfer, and if Tenant does so, the following shall apply:

(1)                                 Tenant shall not be released of its liability for the performance of all of its obligations under this Lease.

(2)                                 If Tenant assigns its interest in this Lease, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of all Transfer Consideration (as defined in Section 14.1D(5) received by Tenant over and above (i) the assignee’s agreement to assume the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, and (ii) all Permitted Transfer Costs related to such assignment.  In the case of assignment, the amount of Transfer Consideration owed to Landlord shall be paid to Landlord on the same basis, whether periodic or in lump sum, that such Transfer Consideration is paid to Tenant by the assignee.

(3)                                 If Tenant sublets any part of the Premises, then with respect to the space so subleased, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one hundred percent (100%) of the positive difference, if any, between (i) all Transfer Consideration paid by the subtenant to Tenant, less (ii) the sum of all Base Monthly Rent and Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses allocable to the space sublet and all Permitted Transfer Costs related to such sublease.  Such amount shall be paid to Landlord on the same basis, whether periodic or in lump sum, that such Transfer Consideration is paid to Tenant by its subtenant.  In calculating Landlord’s share of any periodic payments, all Permitted Transfer Costs shall be first recovered by Tenant.

(4)                                 Tenant’s obligations under this Section 14.1D shall survive any Transfer, and Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations hereunder shall be an Event of Tenant’s Default.  At the time Tenant makes any payment to Landlord required by this Section 14.1D, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an itemized statement of the method by which the amount to which Landlord is entitled was calculated, certified by Tenant as true and correct. Landlord shall have the right at reasonable intervals to inspect Tenant’s books and records relating to the payments due hereunder.  Upon request therefor, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all bills, invoices or other documents upon which its calculations are based.  Landlord may condition its approval of any Transfer upon obtaining a certification from both Tenant and the proposed transferee of all Transfer Consideration and other amounts that are to be paid to Tenant in connection with such Transfer.

(5)                                 As used in this Section 14.1D, the term “Transfer Consideration” shall mean any consideration of any kind received, or to be received, by Tenant as a result of the Transfer, if such sums are related to Tenant’s interest in this Lease or in the Premises, including payments from or on behalf of the transferee (in excess of the book value thereof) for Tenant’s assets, fixtures, leasehold improvements, inventory, accounts, goodwill, equipment, furniture, and general intangibles. As used in this Section 14.1D, the term “Permitted Transfer Costs” shall mean (i) all reasonable leasing commissions paid to third parties not affiliated with Tenant in order to obtain the Transfer in question, and (ii) all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Tenant with respect to negotiating the Transfer in question. The purpose of this section is to avoid a subterfuge regarding the transfer of the Lease and is not intended to give Landlord any rights to Tenant’s assets, fixtures, leasehold improvements, inventory, accounts, goodwill, equipment, furniture, and general intangibles other than what would be equitably determined to be associated with the transfer of the Lease.

E.                                     The sale of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets (other than bulk sales in the ordinary course of business), any dissolution of Tenant, or, if Tenant is a corporation, an unincorporated association, a partnership or a limited liability company, the transfer, assignment and/or hypothecation of any stock or other interest in such corporation, association, partnership or limited liability company in the aggregate in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) during the Term (except for publicly traded shares of stock constituting a transfer of twenty-five percent (25%) or more in the aggregate, so long as no change in the controlling interests of Tenant occurs as a result thereof) shall be deemed an assignment within the meaning and provisions of this Article 14.  As used in the Section 14.1E, the term “Tenant” shall mean Tenant and/or any person or entity that owns, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, Tenant (e.g., a parent corporation of Tenant).

F.                                      In connection with any Transfer under this Lease, Landlord shall keep all of the terms of the Transfer and documents provided in connection therewith strictly confidential and shall not disclose such confidential information to any person or entity other than Landlord’s financial, legal, brokers, space planning consultants, investors, insurers, lenders and buyers. Landlord shall not issue or release any public notice, statement and/or press release or make any public comment concerning the Transfer (“Landlord’s Statements”) until after Tenant has either (i) made a formal press release that the Transfer has been entered into (“Tenant’s Press Release”) or (ii) Tenant has notified Landlord that it does not intend to issue Tenant’s Press Release.  Landlord’s Statement and Tenant’s

ARIDIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

Press Release shall not contain financial or other material terms of the Transfer and shall be respectful of the business reputation of Tenant.

G.                                    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 14, an assignment of the Lease or sublease of all or any portion of the Premises to any entity which controls or is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant or which acquires all or substantially all of the assets, stock or equity interests of Tenant or which is the surviving entity resulting from a merger or consolidation of Tenant (in each such case, an “Affiliate”), shall not require Landlord’s consent provided that at least ten (10) days prior to such assignment or sublease (or ten (10) days after such assignment or sublease, if prohibited by law or subject to a confidentiality restriction) (i) in connection with an assignment of this Lease, Tenant provides Landlord with reasonable evidence that the successor to Tenant (including Tenant, following a “reverse triangular merger” or other similar transaction), has both (a) a tangible net worth computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (and excluding goodwill) (“Net Worth”) that is sufficient to meet the obligations of Tenant under the Lease, and that is at least equal to the Net Worth of Tenant immediately prior to such transaction , or, if either of the foregoing requirements are not satisfied, a legal entity acceptable to Landlord with a higher Net Worth than Tenant immediately before the transaction (such as a parent company of the merging or acquiring company) shall provide a guaranty to Landlord in form and content reasonably acceptable to Landlord and such entity; (ii) Tenant notifies Landlord in writing of any such assignment or sublease and provides Landlord with evidence that such assignment or sublease is a Transfer permitted by this section; (iii) prior to the date an assignment or sublease will take effect (or promptly thereafter if Tenant is prohibited by law from notifying Landlord prior to the effective date of such assignment or sublease), the assignee or sublessee and Tenant shall enter into Landlord’s standard consent to sublease agreement or consent to assignment agreement (the “Transfer Agreements”), and (iv) Tenant shall pay Landlord’s expenses pursuant to Section 14.1(A).  Whether or not an assignment or sublease to an Affiliate is made pursuant to the terms of this section, Tenant shall not be relieved of its obligations under this Lease.

14.2                        Transfer By Landlord.  Landlord and its successors in interest shall have the right to transfer their interest in this Lease, the Building and the Project at any time and to any person or entity.  In the event of any such transfer, the Landlord originally named herein (and, in the case of any subsequent transfer, the transferor) from the date of such transfer, shall be automatically relieved, without any further act by any person or entity, of all liability for the performance of the obligations of the Landlord hereunder which may accrue after the date of such transfer.  After the date of any such transfer, the term “Landlord” as used herein shall mean the applicable transferee of such interest in the Premises.

ARTICLE 15

GENERAL PROVISIONS

15.1                        Landlord’s Right to Enter.  Subject to the terms and conditions herein, Landlord and its Agents may enter the Premises at any reasonable time after giving reasonable prior written, email, or verbal notice to Tenant (except in the case of any emergency or regularly scheduled services, in which case no prior notice shall be required) for the purpose of: (i) inspecting the same; (ii) posting notices of non-responsibility; (iii) supplying any service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant; (iv) showing the Premises to prospective purchasers, Lenders or tenants; (v) making necessary alterations, additions or repairs; (vi) performing Tenant’s obligations when Tenant has failed to do so after written notice from Landlord; (vii) placing upon the Premises ordinary “for lease” signs or “for sale” signs; and (viii) responding to an emergency.  Tenant has advised Landlord that due to the sensitive nature of Tenant’s operations, Landlord shall not enter the Premises in other than an emergency situation without first providing Tenant with no less than one (1) business day’s written, email, or verbal notice of the proposed entry.  Tenant shall have the right and option to cause a Tenant-authorized representative to be present during any such entry by Landlord, its agents, employees and representatives.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Tenant may designate certain areas of the Premises as “Secured Areas” should Tenant require such areas for the purpose of securing certain valuable property or confidential information.  Landlord may not enter such Secured Areas except in the case of emergency or in the event of a Landlord inspection, in which case Landlord shall provide Tenant with two (2) business days’ prior written, verbal, or email notice (but only shall be valid if delivered to Mike Nazak at ***@*** or such other individual(s) identified by Tenant and Tenant shall promptly identify a new individual if Mike Nazak is no longer employed by Tenant) of the specific date and time of such Landlord inspection.  In addition, Tenant shall have the right to cause Landlord to conduct any work in the Premises during other than normal business hours in particular instances if Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for the extra cost incurred in connection with such work which exceeds the cost of such work which would have been incurred had it been performed during the Building’s normal business hours.  If Tenant elects to have an employee of Tenant accompany the person(s) entering the Premises on behalf of Landlord, and Tenant shall arrange for its employee or representative to be available at times reasonably requested by Landlord for such entry.  If Tenant shall not be personally present to open and permit an entry into the Premises at any time when such an entry by Landlord is necessary or permitted hereunder, Landlord may enter by means of a master key or may enter forcibly, only in the case of an emergency, without liability to Tenant and without affecting this Lease.  Tenant shall provide Landlord with reasonable means of accessing all areas of the Premises in the event of an emergency, including, without limitation, providing Landlord with master pass keys and bypass mechanisms for electronic doors.

15.2                        Surrender of the Premises.  Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Premises to Landlord in the same condition as existed on the Commencement Date, except for (i) reasonable wear and tear, (ii) damage caused by any casualty not caused by Tenant or Tenant’s Agents or condemnation, and (iii) contamination by Hazardous Materials for which Tenant is not responsible pursuant to Section 7.2A or Section 7.2B.  In this regard, normal wear and tear shall be construed to mean wear and tear caused to the Premises by the natural aging process which occurs in spite of prudent application of the best standards for maintenance, repair and janitorial practices, and does not include items of neglected or deferred maintenance.  In any event, Tenant shall cause the following to be done prior to the expiration or the sooner termination of this Lease:  (i) all interior walls shall

ARIDIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

be painted or cleaned so that they appear freshly painted; (ii) all non-carpeted floor coverings shall be cleaned and waxed; (iii) all carpets shall be cleaned and shampooed; (iv) all broken, marred, stained or nonconforming acoustical ceiling tiles shall be replaced; and (v) all windows shall be washed.  If required pursuant to Section 5.2(C), or if Tenant has not requested a determination from Landlord with respect to such Tenant’s Alterations pursuant to Section 5.2(C), if Landlord so requests, Tenant shall, prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, (i) remove any Tenant’s Alterations which Tenant is required to remove pursuant to Section 5.2 and repair all damage caused by such removal, and (ii) return the Premises or any part thereof to its original configuration existing as of the time the Premises were delivered to Tenant.  If the Premises are not so surrendered upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in returning the Premises to the required condition, plus interest on all costs incurred at the Agreed Interest Rate.  Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from delay by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant or losses to Landlord due to lost opportunities to lease to succeeding tenants.

15.3                        Holding Over.  This Lease shall terminate without further notice at the expiration of the Lease Term. Any holding over by Tenant after expiration of the Lease Term shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease or give Tenant any rights in or to the Premises except as expressly provided in this Lease.  Any holding over after such expiration with the written consent of Landlord shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month on the same terms and conditions herein specified insofar as applicable except that Base Monthly Rent shall be increased to an amount equal to one hundred seventy-five percent (175%) of the full unabated Base Monthly Rent payable during the last full calendar month of the Lease Term.

15.4                        Subordination.  The following provisions shall govern the relationship of this Lease to any Security Instrument:

A.                                    The Lease is subject and subordinate to all Security Instruments existing as of the Effective Date.  Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Tenant a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance, and attornment agreement from each Lender, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F.  It shall not be a condition precedent to Tenant’s obligations under this Lease that Landlord deliver such subordination, non-disturbance, and attornment agreement and Tenant shall have no rights with respect to Landlord’s failure to deliver such.  Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such subordination, non-disturbance, and attornment agreement within ten (10) days after demand.

B.                                    At Landlord’s election, this Lease shall become subject and subordinate to any Security Instrument created after the Effective Date.  Notwithstanding such subordination, Tenant’s right to quiet possession of the Premises shall not be disturbed so long as Tenant is not in default and performs all of its obligations under this Lease, unless this Lease is otherwise terminated pursuant to its terms.

C.                                    Tenant shall upon request execute and acknowledge any document or instrument reasonably required by any Lender to make this Lease either prior or subordinate to a Security Instrument, which may include such other matters as the Lender customarily requires in connection with such agreements, including provisions that the Lender not be liable for (i) the return of any security deposit unless the Lender receives it from Landlord,  (ii) any defaults on the part of Landlord occurring prior to the time the Lender takes possession of the Project in connection with the enforcement of its Security Instrument, and/or (iii) completion of any improvements to the Premises or the Project agreed to or undertaken by Landlord.  Tenant’s failure to execute any such document or instrument within ten (10) days after written demand therefor shall constitute an Event of Tenant’s Default.

15.5                        Mortgage Protection and Attornment.  In the event of any default on the part of the Landlord, Tenant will use reasonable efforts to give notice by registered mail to any Lender whose name has been provided to Tenant and shall offer such Lender a reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to obtain possession of the Premises by power of sale or judicial foreclosure or other appropriate legal proceedings, if such should prove necessary to effect a cure.  Tenant shall attorn to any purchaser of the Premises at any foreclosure sale or private sale conducted pursuant to any Security Instrument encumbering the Premises, or to any grantee or transferee designated in any deed given in lieu of foreclosure.

15.6                        Estoppel Certificates and Financial Statements.  At all times during the Lease Term, Tenant agrees, following any request by Landlord, to execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days following delivery of such request 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, (ii) stating the date to which the Rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, (iii) acknowledging that there are not any uncured defaults on the part of any party hereunder or, if there are uncured defaults, specifying the nature of such defaults, and (iv) certifying such other information about the status of the Lease and the Premises as may be required by Landlord.  A failure to deliver an estoppel certificate within ten (10) days after delivery of a request therefor shall be a conclusive admission that, as of the date of the request for such statement: (i) this Lease is unmodified except as may be represented by Landlord in said request and is in full force and effect, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, (iii) no rent has been paid more than thirty (30) days in advance, and (iv) the information regarding the status of this Lease, as represented by Landlord in said request, is true and correct.  At any time during the Lease Term Tenant shall, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice from landlord, provide Tenant’s most recent financial statement and financial statements covering the twenty-four (24) month period prior to the date of such most recent financial statement to any existing Lender or to any potential Lender or buyer of the Premises.  Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be certified by Tenant’s chief financial officer as true and correct in all material respects or, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant.

15.7                        Landlord’s Consent.  Wherever Landlord’s approval or consent is required under this Lease before any action may be taken by Tenant, such approval or consent may be withheld or conditioned in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion unless a different standard is specifically provided for with respect to the required approval or consent in question.

15.8                        Notices.  Any notice required or desired to be given regarding this Lease shall be in writing and may be given by personal delivery, by facsimile telecopy, by courier service, or by mail.  A notice shall be deemed to have been given (i) on the third business day after mailing if such notice was deposited in the United States mail, certified or registered, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to be served at its Address for Notices specified in Section R or Section S of the Summary (as applicable), (ii) when delivered if given by personal delivery, and (iii) in all other cases when actually received at the party’s Address for Notices.  Either party may change its address by giving notice of the same in accordance with this Section 15.8, provided however, that any address to which notices may be sent must be a California address.

15.9                        Attorneys’ Fees.  In the event either Landlord or Tenant shall bring any action or legal proceeding or any appeal there from, for an alleged breach of any provision of this Lease, to recover rent, to terminate this Lease or otherwise to enforce, protect or establish any term or covenant of this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover as a part of such action or proceeding, or in a separate action brought for that purpose, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and experts’ fees as may be fixed by the court.

15.10                 Authority.  If Tenant is a corporation (or partnership or limited liability company), each individual executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of such corporation in accordance with the by-laws of such corporation (or partnership in accordance with the partnership agreement of such partnership or limited liability company in accordance with the operating agreement of such limited liability company) and that this Lease is binding upon such corporation (or partnership or limited liability company) in accordance with its terms.  Each of the persons executing this Lease on behalf of a corporation, partnership or limited liability company does hereby covenant and warrant that the party for whom it is executing this Lease is a duly authorized and existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company, that such entity is qualified to do business in California, and that such entity has full right and authority to enter into this Lease.

15.11                 Miscellaneous.  Should any provision of this Lease prove to be invalid or illegal, such invalidity or illegality shall in no way affect, impair or invalidate any other provision hereof, and such remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.  Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of every provision of this Lease in which time of performance is a factor.  The captions used in this Lease are for convenience only and shall not be considered in the construction or interpretation of any provision hereof.  Any executed copy of this Lease shall be deemed an original for all purposes.  This Lease shall, subject to the provisions regarding assignment, apply to and bind the respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of Landlord and Tenant. “Party” shall mean Landlord or Tenant, as the context implies.  If Tenant consists of more than one person or entity, then all persons or entities so comprising Tenant shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder.  This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.  The language in all parts of this Lease shall in all cases be construed as a whole according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against either Landlord or Tenant.  When the context of this Lease requires, the neuter gender includes the masculine, the feminine, a partnership or corporation or joint venture, and the singular includes the plural. The terms “shall”, “will” and “agree” are mandatory.  The term “may” is permissive.  When a party is required to do something by this Lease, it shall do so at its sole cost and expense without right of reimbursement from the other party unless a provision of this Lease expressly requires reimbursement.

15.12                 Termination by Exercise Right.  If this Lease is terminated pursuant to its terms by the proper exercise of a right to terminate specifically granted to Landlord or Tenant by this Lease, then this Lease shall terminate thirty (30) days after the date the right to terminate is properly exercised (unless another date is specified in that part of the Lease creating the right, in which event the date so specified for termination shall prevail), the rent and all other charges due hereunder shall be prorated as of the date of termination, and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall have any further rights or obligations under this Lease except for those that have accrued prior to the date of termination or those obligations which this Lease specifically provides are to survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.  This Section 15.12 does not apply to a termination of this Lease by Landlord as a result of an Event of Tenant’s Default.

15.13                 Brokerage Commissions.  Each party hereto (i) represents and warrants to the other that it has not had any dealings with any real estate brokers, leasing agents or salesmen, or incurred any obligations for the payment of real estate brokerage commissions or finder’s fees which would be earned or due and payable by reason of the execution of this Lease, other than to the Retained Real Estate Brokers described in Section T of the Summary (and then only to the extent set forth in such separate agreement), and (ii) agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party from any claim for any such commission or fees which allegedly result from the actions of the indemnifying party.  Landlord shall be responsible for the payment of any commission owed to the Retained Real Estate Brokers if, and only to the extent, there is a separate written commission agreement between Landlord and the Retained Real Estate Brokers for the payment of a commission as a result of the execution of this Lease by Tenant.  The indemnity, defense and hold harmless obligations under this Section 15.13 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

15.17                 Disclosure Regarding Accessibility Inspection.  The Premises have not undergone an inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (“CASp”) to determine whether or not the Premises meets all applicable construction-related accessibility standards pursuant to California Civil Code Section 55.51 et. seq.  Accordingly, pursuant to California Civil Code § 1938(e), Landlord hereby further states as follows:  “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law.  Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant.  The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises”.  Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) to obtain a report from a CASp, and, in the event that Landlord does so, and such report provides that the Project is in compliance (or any issues of non-compliance are corrected), then, as between Landlord and Tenant, (regardless of whether the claim is brought by any third party, including a subtenant or invitee of Tenant) such report, upon delivery to Tenant shall be conclusive that Landlord has complied any obligation relating specifically to matters covered by the CASp as of delivery (and exclusive of any improvements made by Tenant) pursuant to California Civil Code sections 55.52 and 55.53.  Landlord and Tenant agree that if Tenant requests or performs a CASp inspection of the Premises, Building or Project, then (i) Tenant shall pay the fee for such inspection, (ii) Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards to the Premises, Building, Common Areas, and/or Project; and (iii) if Tenant commissions an inspection by a CASp, Tenant (a) will not provide Landlord with a copy of such report unless such report is specifically requested in writing by Landlord; (b) shall be responsible for any and all consequences resulting from the commissioning of such inspection, including, but not limited to, implementing, managing and performing any and all repairs, improvements and/or modifications to the Premises, Building, Project or Common Area related to addressing and/or correcting any violations disclosed by such inspection; and (c) shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and claims that may be made against Landlord by any party claiming that Landlord had knowledge of a non-compliance of the Premises, Building, Project or Common Area with applicable laws as a result of such inspection.  Notwithstanding clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, Landlord may elect to require Tenant to implement, manage and/or perform such repairs, improvements and/or modifications in lieu of performing such and, in such case, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses associated therewith within twenty (20) days after demand from Landlord.

15.18                 Service Dogs.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease, Tenant shall be permitted to bring onto the Premises non-aggressive, fully-domesticated, fully-vaccinated service dogs as defined under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act and California Civil Code § 54.1(b)(6)(C)(iii) (a “Tenant Service Dog”). A Tenant Service Dog must be owned by the person requesting to bring the animal onto the Premises.  The Tenant shall have the obligation to verify to the Landlord whether the animal is a qualified service dog as defined under Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act and California Civil Code § 54.1(b)(6)(C)(iii).  The Landlord reserves the right to request from the Tenant copy of the Tenant Service Dog’s health records showing that the animal is in good health, parasite-free and immunized/vaccinated.  The Tenant Service Dog must be on a leash, under control, and accompanied by its owner at all times.  The Tenant is required to comply with applicable laws and regulations related to Service Animals doing work or performing tasks for individuals with disabilities.  No Tenant Service Dog shall be brought to the Premises if such dog is ill or contracts a disease that could potentially threaten the health or well-being of any tenant or occupant of the Project (which diseases may include, but shall not be limited to, rabies, leptospirosis and Lyme disease).  The Tenant shall not permit any objectionable dog-related odors to emanate from the Premises, and in no event, shall any Tenant Service Dog remain at the Premises overnight.  All bodily waste generated by a Tenant Service Dog in or about the Premises or Project shall be promptly removed and disposed of in trash receptacles designated by the Landlord, and any areas of the Premises or Project affected by such waste shall be cleaned and otherwise sanitized by Tenant.  No Tenant Service Dog shall be permitted to enter the Premises if such Tenant Service
