LEASE
By this Lease Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord the Premises in the Building as set forth and described on the Reference Pages. The Premises are depicted on the floor plan attached hereto as Exhibit A, and the Building is depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit A-1. The Reference Pages, including all terms defined thereon, are incorporated as part of this Lease.
1. USE AND RESTRICTIONS ON USE.
1.1 The Premises are to be used solely for general office purposes. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building or injure, annoy, or disturb them, or allow the Premises to be used for any (in Landlords reasonable judgment) improper, immoral, unlawful, or objectionable purpose, or commit any waste. Tenant shall not do, permit or suffer in, on, or about the Premises the sale of any alcoholic liquor without the written consent of Landlord first obtained. Tenant shall comply with all federal, state and city laws, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations (collectively, Regulations) applicable to the use of the Premises and its occupancy and shall promptly comply with all governmental orders and directions for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violations in the Building or appurtenant land, caused or permitted by, or resulting from the specific use by, Tenant, or in or upon, or in connection with, the Premises, all at Tenants sole expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except to the extent properly included in Expenses, Landlord shall be responsible for the cost of correcting any violations of Title III of the ADA with respect to the interior and exterior common areas of the Building, at its sole cost and expense. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done on or about the Premises or bring or keep anything into the Premises which will in any way increase the rate of, invalidate or prevent the procuring of any insurance protecting against loss or damage to the Building or any of its contents by fire or other casualty or against liability for damage to property or injury to persons in or about the Building or any part thereof.
1.2 Tenant shall not, and shall not direct, suffer or permit any of its agents, contractors, employees, licensees or invitees (collectively, the Tenant Entities) to at any time handle, use, manufacture, store or dispose of in or about the Premises or the Building any (collectively, Hazardous Materials) flammables, explosives, radioactive materials, hazardous wastes or materials, toxic wastes or materials, or other similar substances, petroleum products or derivatives or any substance subject to regulation by or under any federal, state and local laws and ordinances relating to the protection of the environment or the keeping, use or disposition of environmentally hazardous materials, substances, or wastes, presently in effect or hereafter adopted, all amendments to any of them, and all rules and regulations issued pursuant to any of such laws or ordinances (collectively, Environmental Laws), nor shall Tenant suffer or permit any Hazardous Materials to be used in any manner not fully in compliance with all Environmental Laws, in the Premises or the Building and appurtenant land or allow the environment to become contaminated with any Hazardous Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may handle, store, use or dispose of products containing small quantities of Hazardous Materials (such as aerosol cans containing insecticides, toner for copiers, paints, paint remover and the like) to the extent customary and necessary for the use of the Premises for general office purposes; provided that Tenant shall always handle, store, use, and dispose of any such Hazardous Materials in a safe and lawful manner and never allow such Hazardous Materials to contaminate the Premises, Building and appurtenant land or the environment. Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold each and all of the Landlord Entities (as defined in Article 31) harmless from and against any and all loss, claims, liability or costs (including court costs and reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by reason of any actual or asserted failure of Tenant to fully comply with all applicable Environmental Laws, or the presence, handling, use or disposition in or from the Premises of any Hazardous Materials by Tenant or any Tenant Entity (even though permissible under all applicable Environmental Laws or the provisions of this Lease), or by reason of any actual or asserted failure of Tenant to keep, observe, or perform any provision of this Section 1.2. As of the date hereof, Landlord has not received written notice from any governmental agencies that the Building is in violation of any Environmental Laws.
1.3 Tenant and the Tenant Entities will be entitled to the non-exclusive use of the common areas of the Building as they exist from time to time during the Term, including the parking facilities, subject to Landlords reasonable rules and regulations adopted from time to time regarding such use, which rules and regulations shall be generally applicable to all users of the parking facilities. However, in no event will Tenant or the Tenant Entities park more vehicles in the parking facilities than Tenants Proportionate Share of the total parking spaces available for common use. The foregoing shall not be deemed to provide Tenant with an exclusive right to any parking spaces or any guaranty of the availability of any particular parking spaces or any specific number of parking spaces (except as specifically set forth in the Reference Pages under Parking.

2. TERM.
2.1 The Term of this Lease for the Initial Premises, subject to Tenant Delays (as defined below in Section 2.2), shall begin on the date that Landlord shall tender possession of the Initial Premises to Tenant with the Initial Premises Alterations (as defined in Exhibit B to this Lease) Substantially Complete (as defined below in this Section 2.1) (such date is the Initial Premises Commencement Date), and shall terminate on the date as shown on the Reference Pages (Termination Date), unless sooner terminated by the provisions of this Lease. The Term of this Lease for the Additional Premises, subject to Tenant Delays, shall begin on the date that Landlord shall tender possession of the Additional Premises to Tenant with the Additional Premises Alterations Substantially Complete (the Additional Premises Commencement Date), and shall terminate on the Termination Date, unless sooner terminated by the provisions of this Lease. The Initial Premises Commencement Date shall be the Commencement Date as used in this Lease, except that with respect to obligations that are specific to the Additional Premises, the Commencement Date shall mean the Additional Premises Commencement Date. Tenant shall deliver a punch list of items of the Initial Premises Alterations that are not completed within thirty (30) days after Landlord tenders possession of the Initial Premises and Landlord agrees to proceed with due diligence to perform its obligations regarding such items and to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such items within thirty (30) days following receipt of such punch list. Tenant shall deliver a punch list of items of the Additional Premises Alterations not completed within thirty (30) days after Landlord tenders possession of the Additional Premises and Landlord agrees to proceed with due diligence to perform its obligations regarding such items and to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete such items within thirty (30) days following receipt of such punch list. Tenant shall, at Landlords request, execute and deliver memorandum agreements provided by Landlord in the form of Exhibit C and Exhibit C-1 attached hereto, setting forth the Initial Premises Commencement Date, the Additional Premises Commencement Date, Termination Date and, if necessary, a revised rent schedule. Should Tenant fail to do so within thirty (30) days after any such Landlords request, the information set forth in any such memorandum agreements provided by Landlord shall be conclusively presumed to be agreed and correct. The Initial Premises Alterations and the Additional Premises Alterations shall each be deemed to be Substantially Complete on the later of (a) date that all of the Initial Premises Alterations or the Additional Premises Alterations, as the case may be, have been performed, in accordance with the applicable Plans and with the exception of any punch list items of the type typically found on architectural punch list, and (b) the date Landlord receives from the appropriate governmental authorities, with respect to the Initial Alterations, all approvals necessary for the occupancy of the Premises, if any.
2.2 Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to Substantially Complete the Initial Premises Alterations on or before the Initial Premises Scheduled Commencement Date and the Additional Premises Alterations on or before the Additional Premises Scheduled Commencement Date. Tenant agrees that in the event of the inability of Landlord to so deliver possession of the Initial Premises on the Scheduled Initial Premises Commencement Date or the Additional Premises on the Scheduled Additional Premises Commencement Date, as the case may be, for any reason, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage resulting from such inability, but except to the extent such delay is the result of a Tenant Delay, Tenant shall not be liable for any rent until the time when Landlord delivers possession of the Initial Premises to Tenant and Tenant shall not be liable for any rent until the time when Landlord delivers possession of the Additional Premises to Tenant. No such failure to give possession on the Scheduled Initial Premises Commencement Date or the Scheduled Additional Premises Commencement Date, as applicable, shall affect the other obligations of Tenant under this Lease, except that the actual Initial Premises Commencement Date and Additional Premises Commencement Date shall be postponed until the date that Landlord delivers possession of the Initial Premises and Additional Premises, respectively, to Tenant, except to the extent that such delay is as a result of a Tenant Delay. For purposes of this Lease, each of the following events shall constitute a Tenant Delay: (a) Tenants failure to agree to or deliver plans and specifications (in particular by the due dates set forth in Exhibit B) and/or construction cost estimates or bids; (b) Tenants request for materials, finishes or installations other than Landlords standard except those, if any, that Landlord shall have expressly agreed to furnish without extension of time agreed by Landlord; (c) Tenants change in any plans or specifications (subject to any grace periods in Exhibit B); or, (d) performance or completion by a party employed by Tenant (each of the foregoing, a Tenant Delay). If any delay is the result of a Tenant Delay, the Initial Premises Commencement Date or the Additional Premises Commencement Date, as the case may be, and the payment of rent under this Lease shall be the date that Landlord could have delivered possession of the applicable Premises to Tenant absent such Tenant Delay. Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to notify Tenant in writing, of any circumstances of which Landlord is aware that have caused or may cause a Tenant Delay, so that Tenant may take whatever action is appropriate to minimize or prevent such Tenant Delay.
2.3 Subject to the terms of this Section 2.3 and provided that this Lease has been fully executed by all parties, Tenant has execute the Early Possession Agreement attached as Exhibit E and Tenant has delivered all prepaid rental, the Security Deposit, and insurance certificates required hereunder, Landlord grants Tenant the right to enter the Initial Premises following Landlords Substantial Completion of the Initial Premises Alterations (but in any event not more than four (4) weeks prior to the Initial Premises Commencement Date), at Tenants sole risk solely for the purpose of installing
2
telecommunications and data cabling, equipment, furnishings and other personalty therein. Such possession prior to the Initial Premises Commencement Date shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be required to pay Monthly Installment of Rent or Tenants Proportionate Share of Expenses, Taxes and Insurance Costs with respect to the period of time prior to the Initial Premises Commencement Date during which Tenant occupies the Initial Premises solely for such purposes. However, Tenant shall be liable for any utilities or special services provided to Tenant during such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant takes possession of the Initial Premises before the Initial Premises Commencement Date for any purpose other than as expressly provided in the preceding sentence, such possession shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay Monthly Installment of Rent, Tenants Proportionate Share of Expenses, Taxes and Insurance Costs, and any other charges payable hereunder to Landlord for each day of possession before the Initial Premises Commencement Date. Said early possession shall not advance the Termination Date. Further, if Tenant takes possession of the Additional Premises before the Additional Premises Commencement Date, such possession shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and Tenant shall pay Monthly Installment of Rent, Tenants Proportionate Share of Expenses, Taxes and Insurance Costs, and any other charges payable hereunder to Landlord for each day of possession before the Additional Premises Commencement Date.
2.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Initial Premises Commencement Date has not occurred on or before the Required Completion Date (defined below), Tenant, as its sole remedy, may terminate this Lease by giving Landlord written notice of termination on or before the earlier to occur of: (i) 5 Business Days after the Required Completion Date; and (ii) the Initial Premises Commencement Date. In such event, this Lease shall be deemed null and void and of no further force and effect and Landlord shall promptly refund any prepaid rent and Security Deposit previously advanced by Tenant under this Lease and, subject to any then existing defaults by Tenant under Exhibit B, if any, the parties hereto shall have no further responsibilities or obligations to each other with respect to this Lease. The Required Completion Date shall mean the date which is 75 days after the later of the date this Lease is properly executed and delivered by Tenant, the date all prepaid rental and Security Deposits required under this Lease are delivered to Landlord, and the date the building permit for the Initial Premises Alterations has been obtained. Landlord shall make commercially reasonable efforts to timely obtain any such building permits. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that: (i) the determination of the Initial Premises Commencement Date shall take into consideration the effect of any Tenant Delays; and (ii) the Required Completion Date shall be postponed by the number of days the Initial Premises Commencement Date is delayed due to events of Force Majeure (as defined in Article 31).
3. RENT.
3.1 Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the Annual Rent in effect from time to time by paying the Monthly Installment of Rent then in effect on or before the first day of each full calendar month during the Term, except that the first full months rent shall be paid upon the execution of this Lease. The Monthly Installment of Rent in effect at any time shall be one-twelfth (1/12) of the Annual Rent in effect at such time. Rent for any period during the Term which is less than a full month shall be a prorated portion of the Monthly Installment of Rent based upon the number of days in such month. Said rent shall be paid to Landlord, without deduction or offset and without notice or demand, at the Rent Payment Address, as set forth on the Reference Pages, or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing. If an Event of Default occurs, Landlord may require by notice to Tenant that all subsequent rent payments be made by an automatic payment from Tenants bank account to Landlords account, without cost to Landlord. Tenant must implement such automatic payment system prior to the next scheduled rent payment or within ten (10) days after Landlords notice, whichever is later. Unless specified in this Lease to the contrary, all amounts and sums payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease shall be deemed additional rent.
3.2 Tenant recognizes that late payment of any rent or other sum due under this Lease will result in administrative expense to Landlord, the extent of which additional expense is extremely difficult and economically impractical to ascertain. Tenant therefore agrees that if rent or any other sum is not paid when due and payable pursuant to this Lease, a late charge shall be imposed in an amount equal to the greater of: (a) Fifty Dollars ($50.00), or (b) five percent (5%) of the unpaid rent or other payment; provided that Tenant shall be entitled to a grace period of 5 days for the first late payments of Rent in any 12 month period before such late fee shall apply. The amount of the late charge to be paid by Tenant shall be reassessed and added to Tenants obligation for each successive month until paid. The provisions of this Section 3.2 in no way relieve Tenant of the obligation to pay rent or other payments on or before the date on which they are due, nor do the terms of this Section 3.2 in any way affect Landlords remedies pursuant to Article 19 of this Lease in the event said rent or other payment is unpaid after date due.
3.3 Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, so long as Tenant is not then in default under this Lease following written notice thereof, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Monthly Installment of Rent solely with respect to the Initial Premises for the first forty-five (45) days of the Term (the Monthly Rent Abatement Period), in the
3
amount of $999.85 per day, which totals $44,993.03 (the Abated Rent). During the Monthly Rent Abatement Period, only Monthly Installment of Rent for the Initial Premises shall be abated as set forth above, and Tenants Proportionate Share of Expenses, Taxes and Insurance Costs for the Initial Premises, and all other costs and charges specified in this Lease, shall remain as due and payable pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 4.7 below.

4.1.3 Taxes: Real estate taxes and any other taxes, charges and assessments which are levied with respect to the Building or the land appurtenant to the Building, or with respect to any improvements, fixtures and equipment or other property of Landlord, real or personal, located in the Building and used in connection with the operation of the Building and said land, any payments to any ground lessor in reimbursement of tax payments made by such lessor; and all fees, expenses and costs incurred by Landlord in investigating, protesting, contesting or in any way seeking to reduce or avoid increase in any assessments, levies or the tax rate pertaining to any Taxes to be paid by Landlord in any Lease Year. Taxes shall not include any corporate franchise, or estate, inheritance or net income tax, or tax imposed upon any transfer by Landlord of its interest in this Lease or the Building or any taxes to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Article 28.
4.1.4 Insurance Costs: Any and all insurance charges of or relating to all insurance policies and endorsements deemed by Landlord to be reasonably necessary or desirable and relating in any manner to the protection, preservation, or operation of the Building or any part thereof.

4.2 If in any Lease Year, (i) Expenses paid or incurred shall exceed Expenses paid or incurred in the Base Year (Expenses) and/or (ii) Taxes paid or incurred by Landlord in any Lease Year shall exceed the amount of such Taxes which became due and payable in the Base Year (Taxes), and/or (iii) Insurance Costs paid or incurred by Landlord in any Lease Year shall exceed the amount of such Insurance Costs which became due and payable in the Base Year (Insurance), Tenant shall pay as additional rent for such Lease Year Tenants Proportionate Share of each such excess amount.
4.3 The annual determination of Expenses and Insurance Costs shall be made by Landlord and shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.3. During the Term, Tenant may review, at Tenants sole cost and expense, the books and records supporting such determination in an office of Landlord, or Landlords agent, during normal business hours, upon giving Landlord five (5) days advance written notice within sixty (60) days after receipt of such determination, but in no event more often than once in any one (1) year period, subject to execution of a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and provided that if Tenant utilizes an independent accountant to perform such review it shall be one with expertise in and familiarity with general industry practice with respect to the operation of and accounting for a first class office building and which is reasonably acceptable to Landlord, is not compensated on a contingency basis and is also subject to such confidentiality agreement. If Tenant fails to object to Landlords determination of Expenses and Insurance Costs within one hundred and twenty (120) days after receipt, or if any such objection fails to state with specificity the reason for the objection, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved such determination and shall have no further right to object to or contest such determination. In the event that during all or any portion of any Lease Year or Base Year, the Building is not fully rented and occupied Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment in occupancy-related Expenses for such year for the purpose of avoiding distortion of the amount of such Expenses to be attributed to Tenant by reason of variation in total occupancy of the Building, by employing consistent and sound accounting and management principles to determine Expenses that would have been paid or incurred by Landlord had the Building been at least ninety-five percent (95%) rented and occupied, and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been Expenses for such Lease Year.
4.4 Prior to the actual determination thereof for a Lease Year, Landlord may from time to time estimate Tenants liability for Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes under Section 4.2, Article 6 and Article 28 for the Lease Year or portion thereof. Landlord will give Tenant written notification of the amount of such estimate and Tenant agrees that it will pay, by increase of its Monthly Installments of Rent due in such Lease Year, additional rent in the amount of such estimate. Any such increased rate of Monthly Installments of Rent pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall remain in effect until further written notification to Tenant pursuant hereto.
4.5 When the above mentioned actual determination of Tenants liability for Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes is made for any Lease Year and when Tenant is so notified in writing, then:
4.5.1 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to Section 4.3 on account of Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes for the Lease Year is less than Tenants liability for Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord as additional rent in one lump sum within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlords bill therefor; and
4.5.2 If the total additional rent Tenant actually paid pursuant to Section 4.3 on account of Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes for the Lease Year is more than Tenants liability for Expenses, Insurance Costs and/or Taxes, then Landlord shall credit the difference against the then next due payments to be made by Tenant under this Article 4, or, if this Lease has terminated, refund the difference in cash. Tenant shall not be entitled to a credit by reason of actual Expenses and/or Taxes and/or Insurance Costs in any Lease Year being less than Expenses and/or Taxes and/or Insurance Costs in the Base Year (Expenses and/or Taxes and/or Insurance).
4.6 If the Commencement Date is other than January 1 or if the Termination Date is other than December 31, Tenants liability for Expenses, Insurance Costs and Taxes for the Lease Year in which said Date occurs shall be prorated based upon a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year.
4.7 Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, so long as Tenant is not then in default under this Lease following written notice thereof, Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Tenants Proportionate Share of any Expenses, Insurance Costs and Taxes in excess of the applicable Base Year (as described in Section 4.2 above), if any, for the period commencing on the Initial Premises Commencement Date and ending on the day before the 12-month anniversary of the Initial Premises Commencement Date (the Expense Abatement Period) (collectively, the Abated Expenses). During the Expense Abatement Period, only Expenses, Insurance Costs and Taxes shall be abated as set forth above, and Tenants Monthly Installment of Rent, and all other costs and charges specified in this Lease, shall remain as due and payable pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 3.3 above.

5. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Tenant shall deposit the Security Deposit with Landlord upon the execution of this Lease. Said sum shall be held by Landlord as security for the faithful performance by Tenant of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be kept and performed by Tenant and not as an advance rental deposit or as a measure of Landlords damage in case of Tenants Event of Default. In an Event of Default, Landlord may use any part of the Security Deposit for the payment of any rent or any other sum in default, or for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenants Event of Default, or to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of Tenants Event of Default. If any portion is so used, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit with Landlord an amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount and Tenants failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Except to such extent, if any, as shall be required by law, Landlord shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such deposit. If Tenant shall fully and faithfully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Tenant at such time after termination of this Lease when Landlord shall have determined that all of Tenants obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in Article 23 hereof, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.
6. ALTERATIONS.
6.1 Except for those, if any, specifically provided for in Exhibit B to this Lease, Tenant shall not make or suffer to be made any alterations, additions, or improvements, including, but not limited to, the attachment of any fixtures or equipment in, on, or to the Premises or any part thereof or the making of any improvements as required by Article 7, without the prior written consent of Landlord. When applying for such consent, Tenant shall, if requested by Landlord, furnish complete plans and specifications for such alterations, additions and improvements. Landlords consent shall not be unreasonably withheld with respect to alterations which (i) are not structural in nature, (ii) are not visible from the exterior of the Building, (iii) do not affect or require modification of the Buildings electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC or other systems, and (iv) in aggregate do not cost more than $5.00 per rentable square foot of that portion of the Premises affected by the alterations in question. In addition, Tenant shall have the right to perform, with prior notice but without Landlords consent, any alteration, addition, or improvement that satisfies all of the following criteria (a Cosmetic Alteration): (1) is of a cosmetic nature such as painting, wallpapering, hanging pictures and installing carpeting; (2) is not visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building; (3) will not affect the systems or structure of the Building; (4) costs less than $25,000.00 in the aggregate during any 12-month period of the Term of this Lease, and (5) does not require work to be performed inside the walls or above the ceiling of the Premises. However, even though consent is not required, the performance of Cosmetic Alterations shall be subject to all the other provisions of this Article 6.
6.2 In the event Landlord consents to the making of any such alteration, addition or improvement by Tenant, the same shall be made by using either Landlords contractor or a contractor reasonably approved by Landlord, in either event at Tenants sole cost and expense. If Tenant shall employ any contractor other than Landlords contractor and such other contractor or any subcontractor of such other contractor shall employ any non-union labor or supplier, Tenant shall be responsible for and hold Landlord harmless from any and all delays, damages and extra costs suffered by Landlord as a result of any dispute with any labor unions concerning the wage, hours, terms or conditions of the employment of any such labor. In any event Landlord may charge Tenant a construction management fee not to exceed five percent (5%) of the cost of such work to cover its overhead as it relates to such proposed work (but this fee shall apply only if Landlord performs or contracts for the work or, at Tenants request, supervises the work for Tenant), plus third-party costs actually incurred by Landlord in connection with the proposed work and the design thereof, with all such amounts being due five (5) days after Landlords demand.
6.3 All alterations, additions or improvements proposed by Tenant shall be constructed in accordance with all Regulations, using Building standard materials where applicable, and Tenant shall, prior to construction, provide the additional insurance required under Article 11 in such case, and also all such assurances to Landlord as Landlord shall reasonably require to assure payment of the costs thereof, including but not limited to, notices of non-responsibility, waivers of lien, surety company performance bonds and funded construction escrows and to protect Landlord and the Building and appurtenant land against any loss from any mechanics, materialmens or other liens. Tenant shall pay in addition to any sums due pursuant to Article 4, any increase in real estate taxes attributable to any such alteration, addition or improvement for so long, during the Term, as such increase is ascertainable; at Landlords election said sums shall be paid in the same way as sums due under Article 4. Landlord may, as a condition to its consent to any particular alterations or improvements, require Tenant to deposit with Landlord the amount reasonably estimated by Landlord as sufficient to cover the cost of removing such alterations or improvements and restoring the Premises, to the extent required under Section 26.2; provided that Landlord may require such a deposit only to the extent that the approved alterations, in Landlords reasonable judgment,
7
are of a nature that would require removal and repair costs that are materially in excess of the removal and repair costs associated with standard office improvements.
7. REPAIR.
7.1 Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises, except as specified in Exhibit B if attached to this Lease and except that Landlord shall repair and maintain the structural portions of the Building, including the basic plumbing, air conditioning, heating and electrical systems installed or furnished by Landlord. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that the base Building, electrical, heating, ventilation and air conditioning and plumbing systems located in the Premises shall be in good working order as of the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant. Except to the extent caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant or any Tenant Entities or by any alterations or improvements performed by or on behalf of Tenant, if such systems are not in good working order as of the date possession of the Premises is delivered to Tenant and Tenant provides Landlord with notice of the same within thirty (30) days following the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, Landlord shall be responsible for repairing or restoring the same. Subject to the foregoing, by taking possession of the Premises, Tenant accepts them as being in good order, condition and repair and in the condition in which Landlord is obligated to deliver them, except as set forth in the punch list to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.1. It is hereby understood and agreed that no representations respecting the condition of the Premises or the Building have been made by Landlord to Tenant, except as specifically set forth in this Lease.
7.2 Tenant shall, at all times during the Term, keep the Premises in good condition and repair excepting damage by fire, or other casualty, and in compliance with all applicable governmental laws, ordinances and regulations, promptly complying with all governmental orders and directives for the correction, prevention and abatement of any violations or nuisances in or upon, or connected with, the Premises, all at Tenants sole expense.
7.3 Landlord shall not be liable for any failure to make any repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for an unreasonable time after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant.
7.4 Except as provided in Article 22, there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenants business arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Building or the Premises or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment in the Building. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.
8. LIENS. Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and appurtenant land and Tenants leasehold interest in the Premises free from any liens arising out of any services, work or materials performed, furnished, or contracted for by Tenant, or obligations incurred by Tenant. In the event that Tenant fails, within twenty (20) days following the imposition of any such lien, to either cause the same to be released of record or provide Landlord with insurance against the same issued by a major title insurance company or such other protection against the same as Landlord shall reasonably accept (such failure to constitute an Event of Default), Landlord shall have the right to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all expenses incurred by it in connection therewith shall be payable to it by Tenant within ten (10) days of Landlords written demand.
9. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
9.1 Except as provided herein with respect to a Permitted Transfer, Tenant shall not have the right to assign or pledge this Lease or to sublet the whole or any part of the Premises whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by anyone other than Tenant, and shall not make, suffer or permit such assignment, subleasing or occupancy without the prior written consent of Landlord, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and said restrictions shall be binding upon any and all assignees of this Lease and subtenants of the Premises. In the event Tenant desires to sublet, or permit such occupancy of, the Premises, or any portion thereof, or assign this Lease, Tenant shall give written notice thereof to Landlord at least thirty (30) days but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the proposed commencement date of such subletting or assignment, which notice shall set forth the name of the proposed subtenant or assignee, the relevant terms of any sublease or assignment and copies of financial reports and other relevant financial information of the proposed subtenant or assignee.
9.2 Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, permitted or otherwise, Tenant shall at all times remain directly, primarily and fully responsible and liable for the payment of the rent specified in this Lease and for compliance with
8
all of its other obligations under the terms, provisions and covenants of this Lease. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if the Premises or any part of them are then assigned or sublet, Landlord, in addition to any other remedies provided in this Lease or provided by law, may, at its option, collect directly from such assignee or subtenant all rents due and becoming due to Tenant under such assignment or sublease and apply such rent against any sums due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease, and no such collection shall be construed to constitute a novation or release of Tenant from the further performance of Tenants obligations under this Lease.
9.3 In addition to Landlords right to approve of any subtenant or assignee, except in the case of a Permitted Transfer, Landlord shall have the option, in its sole discretion, in the event of any proposed subletting or assignment, to terminate this Lease, or in the case of a proposed subletting of less than the entire Premises that is at least 25% of the Premises for all or substantially all of the remaining Term, to recapture the portion of the Premises to be so sublet, as of the date the subletting or assignment is to be effective. The option shall be exercised, if at all, by Landlord giving Tenant written notice given by Landlord to Tenant within thirty (30) days following Landlords receipt of Tenants written notice as required above. However, if Tenant notifies Landlord, within five (5) business days after receipt of Landlords termination notice, that Tenant is rescinding its proposed assignment or sublease, the termination notice shall be void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If this Lease shall be terminated with respect to the entire Premises pursuant to this Section, the Term of this Lease shall end on the date stated in Tenants notice as the effective date of the sublease or assignment as if that date had been originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term. If Landlord recaptures under this Section only a portion of the Premises, the rent to be paid from time to time during the unexpired Term shall abate proportionately based on the proportion by which the approximate square footage of the remaining portion of the Premises shall be less than that of the Premises as of the date immediately prior to such recapture. Tenant shall, at Tenants own cost and expense, discharge in full any outstanding commission obligation which may be due and owing as a result of any proposed assignment or subletting, whether or not the Premises are recaptured pursuant to this Section 9.3 and rented by Landlord to the proposed tenant or any other tenant.
9.4 In the event that Tenant sells, sublets, assigns or transfers this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of any Increased Rent (as defined below), less the Costs Component (as defined below), when and as such Increased Rent is received by Tenant. As used in this Section, Increased Rent shall mean the excess of (i) all rent and other consideration which Tenant is entitled to receive by reason of any sale, sublease, assignment or other transfer of this Lease, over (ii) the rent otherwise payable by Tenant under this Lease at such time. For purposes of the foregoing, any consideration received by Tenant in form other than cash shall be valued at its fair market value as determined by Landlord in good faith. The Costs Component is that amount which, if paid monthly, would fully amortize on a straight-line basis, over the entire period for which Tenant is to receive Increased Rent, the reasonable costs incurred by Tenant for leasing commissions, reasonable attorneys fees, and tenant improvements in connection with such sublease, assignment or other transfer.
9.5 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, it shall be considered reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any assignment of this Lease or sublease of any portion of the Premises if at the time of either Tenants notice of the proposed assignment or sublease or the proposed commencement date thereof, there shall exist any uncured default of Tenant, or if the proposed assignee or sublessee is an entity: (a) with which Landlord is already in negotiation; (b) is already an occupant of the Building unless Landlord is unable to provide the amount of space required by such occupant; (c) is a governmental agency; (d) is incompatible with the character of occupancy of the Building; (e) with which the payment for the sublease or assignment is determined in whole or in part based upon its net income or profits; or (f) would subject the Premises to a use which would: (i) involve significant increased personnel or significant wear upon the Building; (ii) violate any exclusive right granted to another tenant of the Building; (iii) require any addition to or modification of the Premises or the Building in order to comply with building code or other governmental requirements; or, (iv) involve a violation of Section 1.2. Tenant expressly agrees that for the purposes of any statutory or other requirement of reasonableness on the part of Landlord, Landlords refusal to consent to any assignment or sublease for any of the reasons described in this Section 9.5, shall be conclusively deemed to be reasonable.
9.6 Upon any request to assign or sublet, Tenant will pay to Landlord the Assignment/Subletting Fee plus, on demand, a sum equal to all of Landlords costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in investigating and considering any proposed or purported assignment or pledge of this Lease or sublease of any of the Premises, regardless of whether Landlord shall consent to, refuse consent, or determine that Landlords consent is not required for, such assignment, pledge or sublease (the Review Reimbursement). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Review Reimbursement shall not exceed $1,000.00 (the Cap). If: (a) Tenant fails to execute Landlords standard form of consent without any changes to this Lease, without material changes to the consent and without material negotiation of the consent, and (b) Landlord shall notify Tenant that the Review Reimbursement shall exceed the Cap as a result of such changes and/or negotiation, and (c) Tenant elects to proceed with such changes and/or negotiation, then the Cap shall not apply and Tenant
9
shall pay to Landlord the Assignment/Subletting Fee plus the Review Reimbursement in full. The foregoing shall in no event be deemed to be a right of Tenant to rescind its written notice to Landlord requesting consent to a transfer of this Lease or a sublease of all or a portion of the Premises as provided in Section 9.1. In the event that Tenant fails to notify Landlord of its election as provided in subsection (c) above within three (3) business days following Landlords notice to Tenant of the excess described in subsection (b) above, then Tenant shall be deemed to have elected proceed with any such changes and/or negotiation and the Cap shall not apply. Any purported sale, assignment, mortgage, transfer of this Lease or subletting which does not comply with the provisions of this Article 9 shall be void.
9.7 Unless Tenant is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a recognized securities exchange, or if at least fifty-one (51%) of its voting stock is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed (in either of which case an acquisition of a controlling interest in Tenant while Tenant is so listed shall not be a Transfer, even if such acquisition is by a privately held entity that later causes Tenant to be removed from such securities exchange), if Tenant is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or trust, any transfer or transfers of or change or changes within any twelve (12) month period in the number of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation or limited liability company, the general partnership interests in the partnership or the identity of the persons or entities controlling the activities of such partnership or trust resulting in the persons or entities owning or controlling a majority of such shares, partnership interests or activities of such partnership or trust at the beginning of such period no longer having such ownership or control shall be regarded as equivalent to an assignment of this Lease to the persons or entities acquiring such ownership or control and shall be subject to all the provisions of this Article 9 to the same extent and for all intents and purposes as though such an assignment.
9.8 So long as Tenant is not entering into the Permitted Transfer (as defined below) for the purpose of avoiding or otherwise circumventing the remaining terms of this Article 9, Tenant may assign its entire interest under this Lease, without the consent of Landlord, to (a) an affiliate, subsidiary, or parent of Tenant, or a corporation, partnership or other legal entity wholly owned by Tenant (collectively, an Affiliated Party), or (b) a successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied (each such transfer a Permitted Transfer and any such assignee or sublessee of a Permitted Transfer, a Permitted Transferee): (i) Tenant is not in an Event of Default under this Lease; (ii) the Permitted Use does not allow the Premises to be used for retail purposes; (iii) Tenant shall give Landlord written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the proposed Permitted Transfer; (iv) with respect to a proposed Permitted Transfer to an Affiliated Party, either (I) Tenant continues to have a net worth equal to or greater than Tenants net worth at the date of this Lease, or (II) in the event such transferee does not have a net worth equal to or greater than Tenants net worth as of the date of the Lease, Tenant obtains and delivers to Landlord a written guaranty from an entity (X) that is incorporated or organized in the United States, (Y) that is not on the OFAC list, and (Z) has a net worth that is equal to greater than the net worth of Tenant as of the date of the Lease, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, guaranteeing Tenants obligations under this Lease; and (v) with respect to a purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization or any Permitted Transfer which results in Tenant ceasing to exist as a separate legal entity, (A) Tenants successor shall own all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, and (B) Tenants successor shall have a net worth which is at least equal to the greater of Tenants net worth at the date of this Lease or Tenants net worth as of the day prior to the proposed purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization, or shall obtain and deliver to Landlord a written guaranty from an entity (x) that incorporated or organized in the United States, (y) that is not on the OFAC list, and (z) has a net worth that is equal to greater than the net worth of Tenant as of the date of the Lease, in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, guaranteeing Tenants obligations under this Lease. Tenants notice to Landlord shall include information and documentation showing that each of the above conditions has been satisfied. If requested by Landlord, Tenants successor shall sign a commercially reasonable form of assumption agreement. As used herein, (1) parent shall mean a company which owns a majority of Tenants voting equity; (2) subsidiary shall mean an entity wholly owned by Tenant or at least fifty-one percent (51%) of whose voting equity is owned by Tenant; and (3) affiliate shall mean an entity controlled, controlling or under common control with Tenant.
10. INDEMNIFICATION.
10.1 None of the Landlord Entities shall be liable and Tenant hereby waives all claims against them for any damage to any property or any injury to any person in or about the Premises or the Building by or from any cause whatsoever (including without limiting the foregoing, rain or water leakage of any character from the roof, windows, walls, basement, pipes, plumbing works or appliances, the Building not being in good condition or repair, gas, fire, oil, electricity or theft), except to the extent caused by or arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors. Tenant shall protect, indemnify and hold the Landlord Entities harmless from and against any and all loss, claims, liability or costs (including court costs and attorneys fees) incurred by reason of (a) any damage to any property (including but not limited to property of any Landlord Entity) or any injury (including but not limited to death) to any person occurring in, on or about the Premises or the Building to the extent that such injury or damage shall be caused by or arise from any actual or alleged act, neglect, fault, or omission by or of Tenant or any Tenant Entity to meet any standards
10
imposed by any duty with respect to the injury or damage; (b) the conduct or management of any work or thing whatsoever done by the Tenant in or about the Premises or from transactions of the Tenant concerning the Premises; (c) Tenants failure to comply with any and all Regulations applicable to the condition or use of the Premises or its occupancy; or (d) any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant or agreement on the part of the Tenant to be performed pursuant to this Lease.

10.2 Landlord shall protect, indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all loss, claims, liability or costs (including court costs and attorneys fees) incurred by reason of any damage to any property (including but not limited to property of Tenant) or any injury (including but not limited to death) to any person occurring in, on or about the common areas of the Building to the extent that such injury or damage shall be caused by or arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of Landlords agents or employees.

Each party shall obtain any special endorsements required by their insurer to evidence compliance with the aforementioned waiver.

13.3 Wherever heat-generating machines or equipment (other than standard office equipment such as printers and copy machines) are used by Tenant in the Premises which affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system or Tenant allows occupancy of the Premises by more persons than the heating and air conditioning system is designed to accommodate, in either event whether with or without Landlords approval, Landlord reserves the right to install supplementary heating and/or air conditioning units in or for the benefit of the Premises and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation and the cost of operations and maintenance, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days of Landlords demand.
13.4 Tenant will not, without the written consent of Landlord, use any apparatus or device in the Premises, including but not limited to, electronic data processing machines and machines using current in excess of 2000 watts and/or 20 amps or 120 volts, which will in any way increase the amount of electricity or water usually furnished or supplied for use of the Premises for normal office use, nor connect with electric current, except through existing electrical outlets in the Premises, or water pipes, any apparatus or device for the purposes of using electrical current or water. If Tenant shall require water or electric current in excess of that usually furnished or supplied for use of the Premises as normal office use, Tenant shall procure the prior written consent of Landlord for the use thereof, which Landlord may refuse, and if Landlord does consent, Landlord may cause a water meter or electric current meter to be installed so as to measure the amount of such excess water and electric current. The cost of any such meters shall be paid for by Tenant. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord within five (5) days of Landlords demand , the cost of all such excess water and electric current consumed (as shown by said meters, if any, or, if none, as reasonably estimated by Landlord) at the rates charged for such services by the local public utility or agency, as the case may be, furnishing the same, plus any additional expense incurred in keeping account of the water and electric current so consumed.
13.5 Tenant will not, without the written consent of Landlord, contract with a utility provider to service the Premises with any utility, including, but not limited to, telecommunications, electricity, water, sewer or gas, which is not previously providing such service to other tenants in the Building. Subject to Landlords reasonable rules and regulations adopted from time to time regarding such use, which rules and regulations shall be generally applicable to all occupants of the Building, and the provisions of Articles 6 and 26, Tenant shall be entitled to the use of wiring (Communications Wiring) from the existing telecommunications nexus in the Building to the Premises, sufficient for normal general office use of the Premises. Tenant shall not install any additional Communications Wiring, nor remove any Communications Wiring, without in each instance obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlords sole and absolute discretion. Landlords shall in no event be liable for disruption in any service obtained by Tenant pursuant to this paragraph.
13.6 Tenant shall have access to the Building for Tenant and its employees 24 hours per day/7 days per week, subject to the terms of this Lease and such security or monitoring systems as Landlord may reasonably impose, including, without limitation, sign-in procedures and/or presentation of identification cards to the extent applicable.
12
14. HOLDING OVER. Tenant shall pay Landlord for each day Tenant retains possession of the Premises or part of them after termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise at the rate (Holdover Rate) which shall be One Hundred Fifty Percent (150%) of the greater of (a) the amount of the Annual Rent for the last period prior to the date of such termination plus Tenants Proportionate Share of Expenses, Taxes and Insurance Costs under Article 4; and (b) the then market rental value of the Premises as determined by Landlord assuming a new lease of the Premises of the then usual duration and other terms, in either case, prorated on a daily basis, and also pay all damages sustained by Landlord by reason of such retention. If Landlord gives notice to Tenant of Landlords election to such effect, such holding over shall constitute renewal of this Lease for a period from month to month or one (1) year, whichever shall be specified in such notice, in either case at the Holdover Rate, but if the Landlord does not so elect, no such renewal shall result notwithstanding acceptance by Landlord of any sums due hereunder after such termination; and instead, a tenancy at sufferance at the Holdover Rate shall be deemed to have been created. In any event, no provision of this Article 14 shall be deemed to waive Landlords right of reentry or any other right under this Lease or at law.
15. SUBORDINATION. Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to ground or underlying leases and to the lien of any mortgages or deeds of trust now or hereafter placed on, against or affecting the Building, Landlords interest or estate in the Building, or any ground or underlying lease; provided, however, that if the lessor, mortgagee, trustee, or holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust elects to have Tenants interest in this Lease be superior to any such instrument, then, by notice to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed superior, whether this Lease was executed before or after said instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver within ten (10) days of Landlords request such further instruments evidencing such subordination or superiority of this Lease as may be required by Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request by Tenant, Landlord will use reasonable efforts to obtain a non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement from Landlords then current mortgagee on such mortgagees then current standard form of agreement. Reasonable efforts of Landlord shall not require Landlord to incur any cost, expense or liability to obtain such agreement, it being agreed that Tenant shall be responsible for any fee or review costs charged by such mortgagee. Landlords failure to obtain a non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement for Tenant shall have no effect on the rights, obligations and liabilities of Landlord and Tenant or be considered to be a default by Landlord hereunder.
16. RULES AND REGULATIONS. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with all the rules and regulations as set forth in Exhibit D to this Lease and all reasonable and non-discriminatory modifications of and additions to them from time to time put into effect by Landlord. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Building of any such rules and regulations.
17. REENTRY BY LANDLORD.
17.1 Landlord reserves and shall at all times have the right to re-enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply janitor service and any other service to be provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease, to show said Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or tenants, and to alter, improve or repair the Premises and any portion of the Building, without abatement of rent, and may for that purpose erect, use and maintain scaffolding, pipes, conduits and other necessary structures and open any wall, ceiling or floor in and through the Building and Premises where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed, provided entrance to the Premises shall not be blocked thereby, and further provided that the business or operations of Tenant shall not be interfered with unreasonably. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except (i) to the extent requested by Tenant, (ii) in connection with scheduled maintenance programs, and/or (iii) in the event of an emergency, Landlord shall provide to Tenant reasonable prior notice (either written or oral) before Landlord enters the Premises to perform any repairs therein. Landlord shall have the right at any time to change the arrangement and/or locations of entrances, or passageways, doors and doorways, and corridors, windows, elevators, stairs, toilets or other public parts of the Building and to change the name, number or designation by which the Building is commonly known (in which event Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for replacement of a one month supply of stationary and a reasonable supply of business cards and advertising materials) provided the changes do not materially affect Tenants ability to use the Premises for the permitted use set forth in the Reference Pages or unreasonably interfere with Tenants access to the Premises. In the event that Landlord damages any portion of any wall or wall covering, ceiling, or floor or floor covering within the Premises, Landlord shall repair or replace the damaged portion to match the original as nearly as commercially reasonable but shall not be required to repair or replace more than the portion actually damaged. Tenant hereby waives any claim for damages for any injury or inconvenience to or interference with Tenants business, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned by any action of Landlord authorized by this Article 17. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in emergency situations as determined by Landlord, Landlord shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to perform any entry into the Premises that occurs during normal business hours in a manner that is reasonably designed to minimize interference and disruption with the operation of Tenants business in the Premises.
13
17.2 For each of the aforesaid purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenants vaults and safes or special security areas (designated in advance), and Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency to obtain entry to any portion of the Premises. As to any portion to which access cannot be had by means of a key or keys in Landlords possession, Landlord is authorized to gain access by such means as Landlord shall elect and the cost of repairing any damage occurring in doing so shall be borne by Tenant and paid to Landlord within five (5) days of Landlords demand.
18. DEFAULT.
18.1 Except as otherwise provided in Article 20, the following events shall be deemed to be Events of Default under this Lease:
18.1.1 Tenant shall fail to pay when due any sum of money becoming due to be paid to Landlord under this Lease, whether such sum be any installment of the rent reserved by this Lease, any other amount treated as additional rent under this Lease, or any other payment or reimbursement to Landlord required by this Lease, whether or not treated as additional rent under this Lease, and such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) days after written notice that such payment was not made when due, but if any such notice shall be given, for the twelve (12) month period commencing with the date of such notice, the failure to pay within five (5) days after due any additional sum of money becoming due to be paid to Landlord under this Lease during such period shall be an Event of Default, without notice. The notice required pursuant to this Section 18.1.1 shall replace rather than supplement any statutory notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 or any similar or successor statute.
18.1.2 Tenant shall fail to comply with any term, provision or covenant of this Lease which is not provided for in another Section of this Article and shall not cure such failure within twenty (20) days (forthwith, if the failure involves a hazardous condition) after written notice of such failure to Tenant provided, however, that such failure shall not be an Event of Default if such failure could not reasonably be cured during such twenty (20) day period, Tenant has commenced the cure within such twenty (20) day period and thereafter is diligently pursuing such cure to completion, but the total aggregate cure period shall not exceed ninety (90) days.
18.1.3 Tenant shall fail to vacate the Premises immediately upon termination of this Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon termination of Tenants right to possession only.
18.1.4 Tenant shall become insolvent, admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due for purposes of any state or federal insolvency proceeding with respect to Tenant, file a petition in bankruptcy or a petition to take advantage of any insolvency statute, make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, make a transfer in fraud of creditors, apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver of itself or of the whole or any substantial part of its property, or file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now in effect or hereafter amended, or any other applicable law or statute of the United States or any state thereof.
18.1.5 A court of competent jurisdiction shall enter an order, judgment or decree adjudicating Tenant bankrupt, or appointing a receiver of Tenant, or of the whole or any substantial part of its property, without the consent of Tenant, or approving a petition filed against Tenant seeking reorganization or arrangement of Tenant under the bankruptcy laws of the United States, as now in effect or hereafter amended, or any state thereof, and such order, judgment or decree shall not be vacated or set aside or stayed within sixty (60) days from the date of entry thereof.
19. REMEDIES.
19.1 Upon the occurrence of any Event or Events of Default under this Lease, whether enumerated in Article 18 or not, Landlord shall have the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies without any notice (except as expressly prescribed herein) or demand whatsoever (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant hereby specifically waives notice and demand for payment of rent or other obligations and waives any and all other notices or demand requirements imposed by applicable law):
19.1.1 Terminate this Lease and Tenants right to possession of the Premises and recover from Tenant an award of damages equal to the sum of the following:
19.1.1.1 The Worth at the Time of Award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination;
14
19.1.1.2 The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rent loss that Tenant affirmatively proves could have been reasonably avoided;
19.1.1.3 The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rent loss that Tenant affirmatively proves could be reasonably avoided;
19.1.1.4 Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment either proximately caused by Tenants failure to perform Tenants obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom; and
19.1.1.5 All such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time under applicable law.
The Worth at the Time of Award of the amounts referred to in parts 19.1.1.1 and 19.1.1.2 above, shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of a per annum rate equal to: (i) the greatest per annum rate of interest permitted from time to time under applicable law, or (ii) the Prime Rate plus 5%. For purposes hereof, the Prime Rate shall be the per annum interest rate publicly announced as its prime or base rate by a federally insured bank selected by Landlord in the State of California. The Worth at the Time of Award of the amount referred to in part 19.1.1.3, above, shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus 1%;
19.1.2 Employ the remedy described in California Civil Code § 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenants breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations); or
19.1.3 Notwithstanding Landlords exercise of the remedy described in California Civil Code § 1951.4 in respect of an Event or Events of Default, at such time thereafter as Landlord may elect in writing, to terminate this Lease and Tenants right to possession of the Premises and recover an award of damages as provided above in Section 19.1.1.
19.2 The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Landlords knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. No waiver by Landlord of any breach hereof shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Landlord.
19.3 TENANT HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS CONFERRED BY SECTION 3275 OF THE CIVIL CODE OF CALIFORNIA AND BY SECTIONS 1174 (c) AND 1179 OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OF CALIFORNIA AND ANY AND ALL OTHER REGULATIONS AND RULES OF LAW FROM TIME TO TIME IN EFFECT DURING THE TERM PROVIDING THAT TENANT SHALL HAVE ANY RIGHT TO REDEEM, REINSTATE OR RESTORE THIS LEASE FOLLOWING ITS TERMINATION BY REASON OF TENANTS BREACH. TENANT ALSO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LEASE.
19.4 No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Landlord is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing by agreement, applicable law or in equity. In addition to other remedies provided in this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to injunctive relief, or to a decree compelling performance of any of the covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or to any other remedy allowed to Landlord at law or in equity. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein provided upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of such Event of Default.
19.5 This Article 19 shall be enforceable to the maximum extent such enforcement is not prohibited by applicable law, and the unenforceability of any portion thereof shall not thereby render unenforceable any other portion.
19.6 If more than one (1) Event of Default occurs during the Term or any renewal thereof, Tenants renewal options, expansion options, purchase options and rights of first offer and/or refusal, if any are provided for in this Lease, shall be null and void.
15
19.7 If, on account of any Event of Default by Tenant in Tenants obligations under the terms and conditions of this Lease, it shall become necessary or appropriate for Landlord to employ or consult with an attorney or collection agency concerning or to enforce or defend any of Landlords rights or remedies arising under this Lease or to collect any sums due from Tenant, Tenant agrees to pay all costs and fees so incurred by Landlord, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and costs. TENANT EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO: (A) TRIAL BY JURY; AND (B) SERVICE OF ANY NOTICE REQUIRED BY ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE LAW OR ORDINANCE APPLICABLE TO LANDLORDS OR TENANTS BUT NOT REQUIRED BY THE TERMS OF THIS LEASE.
19.8 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) cure such Event of Default at Tenants sole expense. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord may, at Landlords option, enter into and upon the Premises if Landlord determines in its reasonable discretion that Tenant is not acting within a commercially reasonable time to maintain, repair or replace anything for which Tenant is responsible under this Lease or to otherwise effect compliance with its obligations under this Lease and correct the same, without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry and detainer and without incurring any liability for any damage or interruption of Tenants business resulting therefrom and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days of Landlords demand as additional rent, for any expenses which Landlord may incur in thus effecting compliance with Tenants obligations under this Lease, plus interest from the date of expenditure by Landlord at the Wall Street Journal prime rate.
20. TENANTS BANKRUPTCY OR INSOLVENCY.
20.1 If at any time and for so long as Tenant shall be subjected to the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or other law of the United States or any state thereof for the protection of debtors as in effect at such time (each a Debtors Law):
20.1.1 Tenant, Tenant as debtor-in-possession, and any trustee or receiver of Tenants assets (each a Tenants Representative) shall have no greater right to assume or assign this Lease or any interest in this Lease, or to sublease any of the Premises than accorded to Tenant in Article 9, except to the extent Landlord shall be required to permit such assumption, assignment or sublease by the provisions of such Debtors Law. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, any right of any Tenants Representative to assume or assign this Lease or to sublease any of the Premises shall be subject to the conditions that:
20.1.1.1 Such Debtors Law shall provide to Tenants Representative a right of assumption of this Lease which Tenants Representative shall have timely exercised and Tenants Representative shall have fully cured any default of Tenant under this Lease.
20.1.1.2 Tenants Representative or the proposed assignee, as the case shall be, shall have deposited with Landlord as security for the timely payment of rent an amount equal to the larger of: (a) three (3) months rent and other monetary charges accruing under this Lease; and (b) any sum specified in Article 5; and shall have provided Landlord with adequate other assurance of the future performance of the obligations of the Tenant under this Lease. Without limitation, such assurances shall include, at least, in the case of assumption of this Lease, demonstration to the satisfaction of the Landlord that Tenants Representative has and will continue to have sufficient unencumbered assets after the payment of all secured obligations and administrative expenses to assure Landlord that Tenants Representative will have sufficient funds to fulfill the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; and, in the case of assignment, submission of current financial statements of the proposed assignee, audited by an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Landlord and showing a net worth and working capital in amounts determined by Landlord to be sufficient to assure the future performance by such assignee of all of the Tenants obligations under this Lease.
20.1.1.3 The assumption or any contemplated assignment of this Lease or subleasing any part of the Premises, as shall be the case, will not breach any provision in any other lease, mortgage, financing agreement or other agreement by which Landlord is bound.
20.1.1.4 Landlord shall have, or would have had absent the Debtors Law, no right under Article 9 to refuse consent to the proposed assignment or sublease by reason of the identity or nature of the proposed assignee or sublessee or the proposed use of the Premises concerned.
21. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, while paying the rental and performing its other covenants and agreements contained in this Lease, shall peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term without hindrance or molestation from Landlord subject to the terms and provisions of this Lease. Landlord shall not be liable for any interference or disturbance by other
16
tenants or third persons, nor shall Tenant be released from any of the obligations of this Lease because of such interference or disturbance. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to end or minimize interference or disturbance by other tenants or third persons after Tenant has requested Landlord to do so in writing; provided however, that Landlord shall not be liable for any interference or disturbance by other tenants or third persons, nor shall Tenant be released from any of the obligations of this Lease because of such interference or disturbance.
22. CASUALTY.
22.1 In the event the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or other cause and in Landlords reasonable estimation such damage can be materially restored within one hundred eighty (180) days, Landlord shall forthwith repair the same and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, except that Tenant shall be entitled to a proportionate abatement in rent from the date of such damage. Such abatement of rent shall be made pro rata in accordance with the extent to which the damage and the making of such repairs shall interfere with the use and occupancy by Tenant of the Premises from time to time. Within forty-five (45) days from the date of such damage, Landlord shall notify Tenant, in writing, of Landlords reasonable estimation of the length of time within which material restoration can be made. For purposes of this Lease, the Building or Premises shall be deemed materially restored if they are in such condition as would not prevent or materially interfere with Tenants use of the Premises for the purpose for which it was being used immediately before such damage.
22.2 If such repairs cannot, in Landlords reasonable estimation, be made within one hundred eighty (180) days, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the option of giving the other, at any time within ninety (90) days after such damage, notice terminating this Lease as of the date of such damage. In the event of the giving of such notice, this Lease shall expire and all interest of the Tenant in the Premises shall terminate as of the date of such damage as if such date had been originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term. In the event that neither Landlord nor Tenant exercises its option to terminate this Lease, then Landlord shall repair or restore such damage, this Lease continuing in full force and effect, and the rent hereunder shall be proportionately abated as provided in Section 22.1.
22.3 Landlord shall not be required to repair or replace any damage or loss by or from fire or other cause to any panelings, decorations, partitions, additions, railings, ceilings, floor coverings, office fixtures or any other property or improvements installed on the Premises by, or belonging to, Tenant. Any insurance which may be carried by Landlord or Tenant against loss or damage to the Building or Premises shall be for the sole benefit of the party carrying such insurance and under its sole control.
22.4 In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs and material restoration within sixty (60) days after the date estimated by Landlord therefor as extended by this Section 22.4, Tenant may at its option and as its sole remedy terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to Landlord, within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of said period of time, whereupon this Lease shall end on the date of such notice or such later date fixed in such notice as if the date of such notice was the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term; provided, however, that if construction is delayed because of changes, deletions or additions in construction requested by Tenant, strikes, lockouts, casualties, Acts of God, war, material or labor shortages, government regulation or control or other causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, the period for restoration, repair or rebuilding shall be extended for the amount of time Landlord is so delayed.
22.5 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article: (a) Landlord shall not have any obligation whatsoever to repair, reconstruct, or restore the Premises when the damages resulting from any casualty covered by the provisions of this Article 22 occur during the last twelve (12) months of the Term or any extension thereof, but if Landlord determines not to repair such damages Landlord shall notify Tenant and if such damages shall render any material portion of the Premises untenantable Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlords notice; and (b) in the event the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises or Building requires that any insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within fifteen (15) days after such requirement is made by any such holder, whereupon this Lease shall end on the date of such damage as if the date of such damage were the date originally fixed in this Lease for the expiration of the Term.
22.6 In the event of any damage or destruction to the Building or Premises by any peril covered by the provisions of this Article 22, it shall be Tenants responsibility to properly secure the Premises and upon notice from Landlord to remove forthwith, at its sole cost and expense, such portion of all of the property belonging to Tenant or its licensees from such portion or all of the Building or Premises as Landlord shall request.
17
22.7 Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.
23. EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any substantial part of the Premises shall be taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain, or conveyance in lieu of such appropriation, either party to this Lease shall have the right, at its option, of giving the other, at any time within thirty (30) days after such taking, notice terminating this Lease, except that Tenant may only terminate this Lease by reason of taking or appropriation, if such taking or appropriation shall be so substantial as to materially interfere with Tenants use and occupancy of the Premises. If neither party to this Lease shall so elect to terminate this Lease, the rental thereafter to be paid shall be adjusted on a fair and equitable basis under the circumstances. In addition to the rights of Landlord above, if any substantial part of the Building shall be taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or conveyance in lieu thereof, and regardless of whether the Premises or any part thereof are so taken or appropriated, Landlord shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Lease. Landlord shall be entitled to any and all income, rent, award, or any interest whatsoever in or upon any such sum, which may be paid or made in connection with any such public or quasi-public use or purpose, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord any interest it may have in or claim to all or any part of such sums, other than any separate award which may be made with respect to Tenants trade fixtures and moving expenses; Tenant shall make no claim for the value of any unexpired Term. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, or any similar or successor Regulations or other laws now or hereinafter in effect.
24. SALE BY LANDLORD. In event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Building, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, expressed or implied, contained in this Lease in favor of Tenant, provided that any successor pursuant to a voluntary, third-party transfer (but not as part of an involuntary transfer resulting from a foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof) shall have assumed Landlords obligations under this Lease either by contractual obligation, assumption agreement or by operation of law, and in such event Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. Except as set forth in this Article 24, this Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Tenant agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee. If any security has been given by Tenant to secure the faithful performance of any of the covenants of this Lease, Landlord may transfer or deliver said security, as such, to Landlords successor in interest and thereupon Landlord shall be discharged from any further liability with regard to said security.
25. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within ten (10) days following any written request which Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord or mortgagee or prospective mortgagee a sworn statement certifying: (a) the date of commencement of this Lease; (b) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications to this Lease, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (c) the date to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease has been paid; (d) the fact that there are no current defaults under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant except as specified in Tenants statement; and (e) such other matters as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Article 25 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary or purchaser. Tenant irrevocably agrees that if Tenant fails to execute and deliver such certificate within such ten (10) day period Landlord or Landlords beneficiary or agent may execute and deliver such certificate on Tenants behalf, and that such certificate shall be fully binding on Tenant. Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days after receipt of a written request from Tenant, execute and deliver a commercially reasonable estoppel certificate to Tenants lender. Such estoppel certificate shall provide a certification solely as to (i) the date of commencement of this Lease, (ii) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications to this Lease, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (iii) the date to which the rent payable under this Lease have been paid; (iv) that, to the best of Landlords actual knowledge, there are no current defaults under this Lease by Tenant except as specified in Landlords statement.
26. SURRENDER OF PREMISES.
26.1 Tenant shall arrange to meet Landlord for two (2) joint inspections of the Premises, the first to occur at least thirty (30) days (but no more than sixty (60) days) before the last day of the Term, and an appointment for the second to be agreed upon to occur not later than forty-eight (48) hours after Tenant has vacated the Premises. In the event of Tenants failure to arrange such joint inspections and/or participate in either such inspection, Landlords inspection at or after Tenants vacating the Premises shall be conclusively deemed correct for purposes of determining Tenants responsibility for repairs and restoration.
18
26.2 All alterations, additions, and improvements (but not Tenants personalty) in, on, or to the Premises made or installed by or for Tenant, including, without limitation, carpeting (collectively, Alterations), shall be and remain the property of Tenant during the Term. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Term, all Alterations shall become a part of the realty and shall belong to Landlord without compensation, and title shall pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale. At the end of the Term or any renewal of the Term or other sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant will peaceably deliver up to Landlord possession of the Premises, together with all Alterations by whomsoever made, in the same conditions received or first installed, broom clean and free of all debris, excepting only ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord elects by notice given to Tenant at least ten (10) days prior to expiration of the Term, Tenant shall, at Tenants sole cost, remove any Alterations, including carpeting, so designated by Landlords notice, and repair any damage caused by such removal.

In the event of a default by Landlord under the Lease, Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages and losses arising from any such default and Tenant may pursue any and all remedies available to it at law or in equity, provided, however, in no event shall Tenant claim a constructive or actual eviction or that the Premises have become unsuitable or unhabitable prior to a default and failure to cure by Landlord and its mortgagee under this Lease and, further provided, in no event shall Tenant be entitled to receive more than its actual direct damages, it being agreed that Tenant hereby waives any claim it otherwise may have for special or consequential damages.

RREEF AMERICA REIT II CORP. FFF, a Maryland corporation, as Landlord and
AVANIR PHARMACEUTICALS, a California corporation, as Tenant
1. This Exhibit B shall set forth the obligations of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the improvements to be performed in the Initial Premises and the Additional Premises for Tenants use. All improvements described in this Exhibit B to be constructed in and upon the Initial Premises by Landlord in accordance with the Initial Premises Plans (as defined below) are hereinafter referred to as the Initial Premises Alterations and all improvements described in this Exhibit B to be constructed in and upon the Additional Premises by Landlord in accordance with the Additional Premises Plans (as defined below) are hereinafter referred to as the Additional Premises Alterations. The Initial Premises Alterations and the Additional Premises Alterations shall sometimes be collectively referred to herein as the Initial Alterations. It is agreed that construction of the Initial Alterations will be completed at Landlords sole cost and expense (subject to the Initial Premises Maximum Amount and the Additional Premises Maximum Amount (hereinafter defined) and further subject to the terms of Section 5 below), using Building standard methods, materials, and finishes, in a good and workmanlike manner, and in accordance with the Initial Premises Plans and the Additional Premises Plans, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Initial Premises Plans (hereinafter defined) for the Initial Premises Alterations have not yet been prepared and, therefore, it is impossible to determine the exact cost of the Initial Premises Alterations at this time. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlords obligation to pay for the cost of the Initial Premises Alterations (inclusive of the hard and soft costs of the Initial Premises Alterations, including the cost of preparing the Initial Premises Plans, obtaining permits, a construction management fee equal to three percent (3%) of the total construction costs and other related costs such as design and other professional fees and permitting costs) shall be limited to $169,785.00 (the Initial Premises Maximum Amount) and that Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of the Initial Premises Alterations, plus any applicable state sales or use tax, if any, to the extent that it exceeds the Initial Premises Maximum Amount. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that the Additional Premises Plans (hereinafter defined) for the Additional Premises Alterations have not yet been prepared and, therefore, it is impossible to determine the exact cost of the Additional Premises Alterations at this time. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant agree that Landlords obligation to pay for the cost of the Additional Premises Alterations (inclusive of the hard and soft costs of the Additional Premises Alterations, including the cost of preparing the Additional Premises Plans, obtaining permits, a construction management fee equal to three percent (3%) of the total construction costs and other related costs such as design and other professional fees and permitting costs) shall be limited to $94,350.00 (the Additional Premises Maximum Amount) and that Tenant shall be responsible for the cost of the Additional Premises Alterations, plus any applicable state sales or use tax, if any, to the extent that it exceeds the Additional Premises Maximum Amount. Landlord shall obtain bids for the Initial Alterations from up to three (3) general contractors identified by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord; provided that any such general contractor must at a minimum be qualified (with good references), bonded, licensed in the state in which the Alterations are being performed, and carry the insurance required by Landlord, all as reasonably determined by Landlord. Landlord shall consult with Tenant upon receipt of such bids, and following such consultation shall enter into a direct contract for the Initial Alterations with a general contractor selected by Landlord. Landlord shall not be required to select the contractor that presents the lowest bid. In addition, Landlord shall have the right to select and/or approve of any subcontractors used in connection with the Initial Alterations.
2. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission to Landlord of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (the Initial Premises Plans) necessary to construct the Initial Premises Alterations, which plans shall be subject to approval by Landlord and Landlords architect and engineers and shall comply with their requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission to Landlord of the final architectural, electrical and mechanical construction drawings, plans and specifications (the Additional Premises Plans) necessary to construct the Additional Premises Alterations, which plans shall be subject to approval by Landlord and Landlords architect and engineers and shall comply with their requirements to avoid aesthetic or other conflicts with the design and function of the balance of the Building. The Initial Premises Plans and the Additional Premises Plans shall sometimes be collectively referred to herein as the Plans. Tenant shall be responsible for all elements of the design of the Plans (including, without limitation, compliance with law, functionality of design, the structural integrity of the design, the configuration of the Initial Premises and the Additional Premises, as the case may be, and the placement of Tenants furniture, appliances and equipment), and Landlords approval of the Plans shall in no event relieve Tenant of the responsibility for such design. If requested by Tenant, Landlords architect will prepare the Plans necessary for such construction at Tenants cost. Whether or not the layout and Plans are prepared with the help (in whole or in part) of Landlords architect, Tenant agrees to remain solely responsible for the timely preparation and submission of the Plans and
B-1 | ||
Initials |
for all elements of the design of such Plans and for all costs related thereto. Tenant has assured itself by direct communication with the architect and engineers (Landlords or its own, as the case may be) that the final approved Initial Premises Plans can be delivered to Landlord on or before May 12, 2006 (the Initial Premises Plans Due Date), provided that Tenant promptly furnishes complete information concerning its requirements to the architect and engineers as and when requested by them. The final approved Additional Premises Plans shall be delivered to Landlord on or before February 28, 2007 (the Additional Premises Plans Due Date), provided that Tenant promptly furnishes complete information concerning its requirements to the architect and engineers as and when requested by them. Each of the Initial Premises Plans Due Date and the Additional Premises Plans Due Date shall be extended by one day for each day of Landlord Delay (defined below) in responding to Tenants requests for approval of the Plans or revisions thereto corresponding to the applicable Premises. Tenant covenants and agrees to cause the final, approved Plans to be delivered to Landlord on or before the Initial Premises Plans Due Date and the Additional Premises Plans Due Date, as applicable, and to devote such time as may be necessary in consultation with the architect and engineers to enable them to complete and submit the Plans within the required time limit. Time is of the essence in respect of preparation and submission of the Plans by Tenant. If the Initial Premises Plans are not fully completed and approved by the Initial Premises Plans Due Date, Tenant shall be responsible for one day of Tenant Delay for each day during the period beginning on the day following the Initial Premises Plans Due Date and ending on the date completed Initial Premises Plans are approved. If the Additional Premises Plans are not fully completed and approved by the Additional Premises Plans Due Date, Tenant shall be responsible for one day of Tenant Delay for each day during the period beginning on the day following the Additional Premises Plans Due Date and ending on the date completed Additional Premises Plans are approved. (The word architect as used in this Exhibit B shall include an interior designer or space planner.) Landlord shall respond to any Tenant request for approval of its Plans or any revisions thereto within three (3) business days following receipt thereof, and each day beyond such three (3) business day period in which Landlord fails to respond shall be considered one (1) day of Landlord Delay for purposes of this Exhibit B.
3. If Landlords estimate and/or the actual cost of the Initial Premises Alterations shall exceed the Initial Premises Maximum Amount, Landlord, prior to commencing any construction of the Initial Premises Alterations, shall submit to Tenant a written estimate setting forth the anticipated cost of the Initial Premises Alterations, including but not limited to labor and materials, contractors fees and permit fees. Within three (3) business days thereafter, Tenant shall either notify Landlord in writing of its approval of the cost estimate, or specify its objections thereto and any desired changes to the proposed Initial Premises Alterations. If Landlords estimate and/or the actual cost of the Additional Premises Alterations shall exceed the Additional Premises Maximum Amount, Landlord, prior to commencing any construction of the Additional Premises Alterations, shall submit to Tenant a written estimate setting forth the anticipated cost of the Additional Premises Alterations, including but not limited to labor and materials, contractors fees and permit fees. Within three (3) business days thereafter, Tenant shall either notify Landlord in writing of its approval of the cost estimate, or specify its objections thereto and any desired changes to the proposed Additional Premises Alterations. If Tenant notifies Landlord of such objections and desired changes with respect to either the Initial Premises Alterations or the Additional Premises Alterations, Tenant shall work with Landlord to reach a mutually acceptable alternative cost estimate and such period shall not be considered a Tenant Delay with respect to the applicable Initial Alterations; provided that if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on an alternative cost estimate within three (3) days after Tenants notification, then Landlord may either (a) proceed with construction of the applicable Initial Alterations using Landlords cost estimate, including any revisions to which Landlord and Tenant have agreed as of that date, or (b) if Tenant so requests in writing, Landlord may elect to continue to work with Tenant to further revise the cost estimate or applicable Initial Alterations, in which event any delay in completion of the applicable Initial Alterations beyond the 3-day period above shall be a Tenant Delay.
4. If Landlords estimate and/or the actual cost of construction shall exceed the Initial Premises Maximum Amount (such amounts exceeding the Initial Premises Maximum Amount being herein referred to as the Initial Premises Excess Costs), Tenant shall pay to Landlord such Initial Premises Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand. If Landlords estimate and/or the actual cost of construction shall exceed the Additional Premises Maximum Amount (such amounts exceeding the Additional Premises Maximum Amount being herein referred to as the Additional Premises Excess Costs), Tenant shall pay to Landlord such Additional Premises Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand. The statements of costs submitted to Landlord by Landlords contractors shall be conclusive for purposes of determining the actual cost of the items described therein. The amounts payable by Tenant hereunder constitute rent payable pursuant to the Lease, and the failure to timely pay same constitutes an Event of Default under the Lease.
5. If Tenant shall request any change, addition or alteration in any of the Plans after approval by Landlord, Landlord shall have such revisions to the drawings prepared as soon as practicable, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost thereof, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand to the extent that the cost of performing such revisions cause the cost of the Initial Premises Alterations to exceed the Initial Premises Maximum Amount or the cost of performing such revisions cause the cost of the Additional Premises Alterations to exceed the Additional Premises Maximum
B-2 | ||
Initials |
Amount. Promptly upon completion of the revisions, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of the increased cost, if any, which will be chargeable to Tenant by reason of such change, addition or deletion. Tenant, within one business day, shall notify Landlord in writing whether it desires to proceed with such change, addition or deletion. In the absence of such written authorization, Landlord shall have the option to continue work on the Initial Premises or the Additional Premises, as applicable, disregarding the requested change, addition or alteration, or Landlord may elect to discontinue work on the Initial Premises or the Additional Premises until it receives notice of Tenants decision, in which event Tenant shall be responsible for any Tenant Delay in completion of the Initial Premises or the Additional Premises resulting therefrom. If such revisions result in a higher estimate of the cost of construction and/or higher actual construction costs which exceed the Initial Premises Maximum Amount, such increased estimate or costs shall be deemed Initial Premises Excess Costs pursuant to Section 4 hereof and Tenant shall pay such Initial Premises Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand. If such revisions result in a higher estimate of the cost of construction and/or higher actual construction costs which exceed the Additional Premises Maximum Amount, such increased estimate or costs shall be deemed Additional Premises Excess Costs pursuant to Section 4 hereof and Tenant shall pay such Additional Premises Excess Costs, plus any applicable state sales or use tax thereon, upon demand.
6. Following approval of the Initial Premises Plans and the payment by Tenant of the required portion of the Initial Premises Excess Costs, if any, Landlord shall cause the Initial Premises Alterations to be constructed substantially in accordance with the approved Initial Premises Plans. Landlord shall notify Tenant of substantial completion of the Initial Premises Alterations. Following approval of the Additional Premises Plans and the payment by Tenant of the required portion of the Additional Premises Excess Costs, if any, Landlord shall cause the Additional Premises Alterations to be constructed substantially in accordance with the approved Additional Premises Plans. Landlord shall notify Tenant of substantial completion of the Additional Premises Alterations.
7. Any portion of the Initial Premises Maximum Amount which exceeds the cost of the Initial Premises Alterations or is otherwise remaining after September 30, 2006 may be added to the Additional Premises Maximum Amount. Any portion of the Additional Premises Maximum Amount (including any addition thereto carried over from the Initial Premises Maximum Amount) which exceeds the cost of the Additional Premises Alterations or is otherwise remaining after September 30, 2007, shall accrue to the sole benefit of Landlord, it being agreed that Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit, offset, abatement or payment with respect thereto.
8. This Exhibit B shall not be deemed applicable to any additional space added to the Premises at any time or from time to time, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, or to any portion of the original Premises or any additions to the Premises in the event of a renewal or extension of the original Term of the Lease, whether by any options under the Lease or otherwise, unless expressly so provided in the Lease or any amendment or supplement to the Lease.
