The term of this Lease (“Lease Term”) shall begin on September 1, 2005 or any earlier date on which Lessee or Lessee’s invitees commences Lessee’s business operations at the Premises (the “Commencement Date”) and expire, unless sooner terminated as provided for herein, on August 31, 2010 (“Expiration Date”). The parties shall execute a “Memorandum of Commencement of Lease Term” on the Commencement Date and shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”.

 

Section 3.02 Option to Extend.

 

(a) Exercise.

 

Lessee is given one (1) option to extend the Lease Term (the “Option to Extend”) for one (1) five (5) year period (“Extended Term”) following the date on which the initial Lease Term would otherwise expire, which option may be exercised only by written notice (“Option Notice”) from Lessee to Lessor given not less than twelve (12) months prior to the end of the initial Lease Term (“Option Exercise Date”); provided, however, if any of the Conditions to the Option to Extend are not met on the Option Exercise Date or on any day thereafter on or before the last day of the initial Lease Term, the Option Notice shall be totally ineffective, and this Lease shall expire on the last day of the initial Lease Term, if not sooner terminated. As used herein, the term “Conditions to the Option to Extend” shall mean all of the following conditions to the effectiveness of Lessee’s exercise of the Option to Extend: (i) Lessee is not in default under this Lease, (ii) Lessee has not assigned this Lease to any party other then an Affiliate, (iii) Lessee has not sublet more than fifty percent (50%) of the rentable square footage of the Premises to any party other than an Affiliate, (iv) Lessee or any Affiliate thereof is then in physical occupancy of at least fifty percent (50%) of the then-existing rentable square footage of the Premises and (v) Lessee has not been in default beyond any applicable grace and cure periods hereunder during the initial Lease Term on more than three (3) occasions.

 

4


(b) Extended Term Rent.

 

In the event Lessee exercises the Option to Extend set forth herein, all the terms and conditions of this Lease shall continue to apply to the Extended Term, except that the Base Rent payable by Lessee during the Extended Term shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of Fair Market Rent (defined below), as determined under subparagraph (c) below. “FairMarket Rent” shall mean the effective rate being charged (including periodic adjustments thereto as applicable during the period of the Extended Term), for comparable space in similar buildings in the vicinity, i.e., of a similar age and quality considering any recent renovations or modernization, and floor plate size or, if such comparable space is not available, adjustments shall be made in the determination of Fair Market Rent to reflect the age and quality of the Building and Premises as contrasted to other buildings used for comparison purposes, with similar amenities, taking into consideration: size, location, floor level, leasehold improvements or allowances provided or to be provided, term of the lease, extent of services to be provided, the time that the particular rate under consideration became or is to become effective, and any other relevant terms or conditions applicable to both new and renewing tenants.

 

(c) Determination of Fair Market Rent.

 

(i) Negotiation.

 

At any time prior to Lessee’s delivery of the Option Notice to Lessor, but in no event earlier than fifteen (15) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, Lessee may request in writing that Lessor provide Lessee with a written estimate (the “Rent Estimate”) in the form of a range of potential rental rates, of Lessor’s determination of the Fair Market Rent for the Premises for the Extended Term. Lessor shall deliver such Rent Estimate to Lessee within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of Lessee’s request therefor. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Rent Estimate shall not be a binding agreement upon either party as to the Fair Market Rent for the Extended Term or an exercise by Lessee of Lessee’s Option to Extend. Such Rent Estimate is to be provided merely as an accommodation to Lessee in order to assist Lessee in determining whether to exercise Lessee’s Option to Extend hereunder. If Lessee so exercises its Option to Extend in a timely manner, the parties shall then meet in good faith to negotiate the Base Rent for the Premises for the Extended Term, during the first thirty (30) days after the date of the delivery by Lessee of the Option Notice (the “Negotiation Period”). If, during the Negotiation Period, the parties agree on the Base Rent applicable to the Premises for the corresponding Extended Term, then such agreed amount shall be the Base Rent payable by Lessee during such Extended Term.

 

(ii) Arbitration.

 

In the event that the parties are unable to agree on the Base Rent for the Premises within the Negotiation Period, then within ten (10) business days after the expiration of the Negotiation Period, each party shall separately designate to the other in writing an appraiser to make this determination. Each appraiser designated shall be a member of MAI and shall have at least ten (10) years experience in appraising commercial real property, of similar quality and use as the Premises, in Santa Clara County. The failure of either party to appoint an appraiser within the time allowed shall be deemed equivalent to appointing the appraiser appointed by the other party, who shall then determine the Fair Market Rent for the Premises for the Extended Term. Within five (5) business days of their appointment, the two designated appraisers shall jointly

 

5


designate a third similarly qualified appraiser. Within thirty (30) days after their appointment, each of the two appointed appraisers shall submit to the third appraiser a sealed envelope containing such appointed appraiser’s good faith determination of the Fair Market Rent for the Premises for the Extended Term in accordance with the procedures and guidelines set forth herein; concurrently with such delivery, each such appraiser shall deliver a copy of his or her determination to the other appraiser. The third appraiser shall within ten (10) days following receipt of such submissions, then determine which of the two appraisers’ determinations most closely reflects Fair Market Rent as defined above. The determination most closely reflecting the third appraiser’s determination shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Rent for the Premises during the Extended Term; the third appraiser shall have no rights to adjust, amend or otherwise alter the determinations made by the appraiser selected by the parties, but must select one or the other of such appraisers’ submissions. The determination by such third appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties. Said third appraiser shall, upon selecting the determination which most closely reflects Fair Market Rent, concurrently notify both parties hereto. The Base Rent for the Extended Term shall be the determination so selected. The parties shall share the appraisal expenses equally. If the Extended Term begins prior to the determination of Fair Market Rent, Lessee shall pay monthly installments of Base Rent equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the monthly installment of Base Rent in effect for the last year of the initial Lease Term (in lieu of “holdover rent” payable under Section 17.09(b)). Once a determination is made, any over payment or under payment shall be reimbursed as a credit against, or paid by adding to, the monthly installment of Base Rent next falling due.

 

Section 3.03 Early Entry.

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the execution of this Lease by Lessor and Lessee, provided that Lessee has delivered to Lessor the Letter of Credit Security, the first month’s Base Rent and certificates evidencing the insurance described in Article VII below, Lessee and Lessee’s invitees may enter the Premises, at Lessee’s sole risk, for the sole purpose of installation of Lessee’s trade fixtures, equipment, telecommunications systems and other equipment thereon. Lessee’s occupancy of the Premises prior to the Commencement Date shall be on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease (including the obligation to pay utilities described in Section 10.01 below), except the obligation to pay Base Rent, Operating Expenses and real property taxes. Lessee and Lessee’s agents, employees, representatives and contractors shall at all times during such period of early entry avoid interfering with Lessor’s ongoing work in substantially completing the improvements to be constructed by Lessor therein.

However, should Lessee default hereunder beyond any applicable cure period during such twelve (12) month period such that Lessor properly exercises Lessor’s remedies pursuant to Subsection 12.02 of this Lease, then the Excused Base Rent shall no longer be excused and shall become an obligation of Lessee hereunder, and Lessor shall be entitled to seek recovery of the Excused Base Rent as part of the damages to which Lessor is entitled pursuant to the terms of this Lease.

Section 4.05 Lessee’s Right to Review Supporting Data.

 

(a) Exercise of Right by Lessee.

 

Provided that Lessee is not in default under this Lease and provided further that Lessee strictly complies with the provisions of this Section 4.05, Lessee shall have the right to reasonably review supporting data for any portion of a Lessor’s statement that Lessee claims is incorrect. In order for Lessee to exercise its right under this Section 4.05, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after any Lessor’s Statement is sent, deliver a written notice to Lessor specifying the portions of the Lessor’s statement that are claimed to be incorrect, and Lessee shall simultaneously pay to Lessor all amounts due from Lessee to Lessor as specified in the Lessor’s Statement. Except as expressly set forth in subparagraph (c) below, in no event shall Lessee be entitled to withhold, deduct, or offset any monetary obligation of Lessee to Lessor under the Lease including, without limitation, Lessee’s obligation to make all Base Rent payments and all

 

10


payments for Additional Rent pending the completion of, and regardless of the results of, any review under this Section 4.05. The right to review granted to Lessee under this Section 4.05 may only be exercised once for any Lessor’s Statement, and if Lessee fails to meet any of the above conditions as a prerequisite to the exercise of such right, the right of Lessee under this Section 4.05 for a particular Lessor’s Statement shall be deemed waived.

 

(b) Procedures for Review.

 

Lessee acknowledges that Lessor maintains its books and records for 420 N. Mary and the Project at its offices in San Francisco, and Lessee therefore agrees that any review and audit of the same and supporting data under this Section shall occur at such location. Any review to be conducted by Lessee under this Section shall be at the sole expense of Lessee and shall be conducted by an independent (i.e., no then engaged by Lessee for any other purpose) firm of certified public accountants of national standing on a non-contingency fee basis. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that any supporting data reviewed under this Section shall constitute confidential information of Lessor, which shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the accountants performing the review and the principals of Lessee who receive the results of the review. The disclosure of such information or results of the review to any other person, by Lessee or its agents, whether or not caused by the conduct of Lessee, shall constitute a material breach of this Lease.

 

(c) Finding of Error.

 

Any errors disclosed by the review of supporting data under this Section shall be promptly corrected, provided that Lessor shall have the right to cause another review of the supporting data to be made by an independent (i.e., not then engaged by Lessor for any other purposes) firm of certified public accountants of Lessor’s choice. In the event of a disagreement between the two accounting firms, the review that discloses the least amount of deviation from the Lessor’s statement shall be deemed to be correct and its review shall be final and binding on both Lessor and Lessee If the results of the review of supporting data taking into account, if applicable, the results of any additional review caused by Lessor reveal that Lessee has overpaid obligations for a preceding period, the amount of such overpayment shall be credited against Lessee’s subsequent installment obligations to pay Lessee’s Share of Additional Rent, or if no Rent is owed, such overpayment shall be promptly refunded to Lessee. In the event that such results show that Lessee has underpaid its obligations for a preceding period, the amount of such underpayment shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor with the next succeeding installment obligation of Additional Rent or, if the Lease has terminated, in cash within thirty (30) days after the determination of underpayment is delivered to Lessee. Each party shall pay the cost and expense of its chosen accounting firm.

 

(d) Effect of Lessee’s Default.

 

In the event that Lessee becomes in default of its obligations under this Lease at any time during the pendency of a review of records under this Section, said right to review shall immediately cease and the matters originally set forth in the Lessor’s statement shall be deemed to be correct.

Section 4.06 Letter of Credit Security.

 

(a) Deposit of Letter of Credit Security

 

Lessee shall deposit with Lessor, no later than ten (10) business days after the execution of this Lease, an unconditional, irrevocable letter of credit (“Letter of Credit”) on a form acceptable to Lessor and, if required, Lessor’s lender(s), and in favor of Beneficiary, defined below, in the amount of Three Hundred Sixty-One Thousand Four Hundred Sixteen and 60/100 Dollars ($361,416.60) (the “Letter of Credit Security”). “Beneficiary,” as used herein refers to either: (x) Lessor as beneficiary, or (y) if required by Lessor’s lender(s), Lessor and Lessor’s lender(s) as co-beneficiaries under the Letter of Credit Security. The Letter of Credit Security shall: (i) be issued by a commercial money center bank reasonably satisfactory to Lessor with retail branches in San Francisco, California (the “Issuer”); (ii) be a standby, at-sight, irrevocable letter of credit; (iii) be payable to Beneficiary; (iv) permit multiple, partial draws, (v) provide that any draw on the Letter of Credit Security shall be made upon receipt by the Issuer of a sight draft accompanied by a letter from Lessor stating that Lessor is entitled to draw on the Letter of Credit Security; (vi) provide for automatic annual extensions, without amendment (so-called “evergreen” provision) with a final expiry date no sooner than ninety (90) days after the end of the Lease Term; (vii) provide that is governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 revisions) International Chamber of Commerce Publication 500; and (viii) be cancelable if, and only if, Issuer delivers to Beneficiary no less than sixty (60) days advance written notice of Issuer’s intent to cancel. Lessee shall pay all costs, expenses, points and/or fees incurred by Lessee in obtaining the Letter of Credit Security.

 

(b) Lessor’s Right to Draw on Letter of Credit Security

 

The Letter of Credit Security shall be held by Lessor as security for the faithful performance by Lessee of all of the terms, covenants, and conditions this Lease applicable to Lessee. Lessor shall have the immediate right to draw upon the Letter of Credit Security, in whole or in part and without prior notice to Lessee, other than as required under this Lease, at any time and from time to time: (i) if a default occurs under this Lease (beyond any applicable notice and cure period), or (ii) Lessee either files a voluntary bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against Lessee by an entity or entities other than Lessor, under 11 U.S.C. §101 et seq., or Lessee executes an assignment for the benefit of creditors. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit Security conditional, thereby justifying the Issuer of the Letter of Credit Security in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit Security in a timely manner. The Letter of Credit Security and its proceeds shall constitute Lessor’s sole and separate property (and not Lessee’s property or, in the event of a bankruptcy filing by or against Lessee, property of Lessee’s bankruptcy estate) and Lessor shall immediately upon any draw (and without notice to Lessee) apply or offset the proceeds of the Letter of Credit Security against: (i) any amounts payable by Lessee under the Lease that are not paid when due, after the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period; (ii) subject to the limitations of Section 7.07(d) below, all losses and damages that Lessor has suffered or may reasonably estimate that it may suffer as a result of any default by Lessee under this Lease, including any damages arising under Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code for rent due following termination of this Lease; (iii) any costs incurred by Lessor in connection with a default by Lessee under this Lease (including attorney’s fees); and (iv)subject

 

12


to the limitations of Section 7.07(d) below, any other amount that Lessor may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Lessee’s default under this Lease but in no event in excess of amounts to which the Lessor would be entitled under the law. If any portion of the Letter of Credit Security is so drawn upon or applied, Lessee shall, within five (5) business days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Issuer in an amount sufficient to restore the Letter of Credit Security to its original amount; Lessee’s failure to do so shall be a Default by Lessee. It is expressly understood that Lessor shall be relying on Issuer rather than Lessee for the timely payment of proceeds under the Letter of Credit Security and the rights of Lessor pursuant to this Section are in addition to any rights which Lessor may have against Lessee pursuant to Article XII below. Lessor shall not be required to keep the proceeds from the Letter of Credit Security separate from Lessor’s general funds or be deemed a trustee of same. Lessee hereby waives any and all rights Lessee may now or hereinafter acquire pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1950.7, except with respect to Lessee’s priority rights to the security deposit as it relates to Lessor’s creditors or trustee in bankruptcy.

 

(c) Replacement Letter of Credit Security

 

If, for any reason whatsoever, the Letter of Credit Security becomes subject to cancellation or expiration during the Lease Term, within thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the Letter of Credit Security, Lessee shall cause the Issuer or another bank satisfying the conditions of Section 4.06(a) above to issue and deliver to Lessor a Letter of Credit Security to replace the expiring Letter of Credit Security (the “Replacement Letter of Credit Security”). The Replacement Letter of Credit Security shall be in the same amount as the original Letter of Credit Security and shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in items (i) through (viii) of Section 4.05(a) above. Failure of Lessee to cause the Replacement Letter of Credit Security to be issued thirty (30) days prior to the then pending expiration or cancellation shall entitle Lessor to fully draw down on the existing Letter of Credit Security and, at Lessor’s election, shall be an event of default under this Lease without any relevant notice and cure period.

 

(d) Transfer of Beneficiary

 

During the Lease Term Lessor may transfer its interest in the Lease or Lessor’s lender may change. Lessor may request a change to Beneficiary under the Letter of Credit Security to the successor of Lessor and/or Lessor’s lender (the “Transferee”). Lessor and Lessee agree to cooperate in causing Issuer, at Lessor’s cost, to timely issue a new Letter of Credit Security on the same terms and conditions as the original Letter of Credit Security, except that the new Letter of Credit Security shall be payable to the Transferee. Lessor shall surrender the existing Letter of Credit Security to Lessee simultaneously with Lessee’s delivery of the new Letter of Credit Security to Transferee.

 

(e) Return of the Letter of Credit Security

 

If Lessee fully and faithfully performs every provision of this Lease to be performed by it, the Letter of Credit Security or any balance thereof shall be returned (without interest) to Lessee (or, at Lessee’s option, to the last assignee of Lessee’s interests hereunder) within thirty (30) days after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease and after Lessee has vacated the Premises and surrendered possession; provided that if prior to the Lease

 

13


Expiration Date a voluntary bankruptcy provision is filed by Lessee, or an involuntary bankruptcy is filed against Lessee by any of Lessee’s creditors other than Lessor, under 11 U.S.C. § 101 et seq., or Lessee executes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, then Lessor shall not be obligated to return the Letter of Credit Security or any proceeds of the Letter of Credit Security until all statutes of limitations for any preference avoidance statutes applicable to such bankruptcy or assignment for the benefit of creditors have elapsed or the bankruptcy court or assignee, whichever is applicable, has executed a binding release releasing Lessor of any and all liability for the preferential transfers relating to payments made under this Lease, and Lessor may retain and offset against any remaining Letter of Credit Security proceeds the full amount Lessor is required to pay to any third party on account of preferential transfers relating to this Lease. Lessor agrees it will cooperate in providing Issuer with a letter of cancellation or such other reasonable documentation as Issuer requests to effect the return and extinguishment of the credit issued under the Letter of Credit Security.

 

(f) Acknowledgment of Parties

 

So long as the Letter of Credit Security is not reduced to cash in excess of the damage and held by Lessor, Lessor and Lessee (a) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the Letter of Credit Security or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context, including, but not limited to Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, as such Section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded (the “Security Deposit Laws”), (b) acknowledge and agree that the Letter of Credit Security (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (c) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations that any such party may now, or in the future will, have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Lessee hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (i) establish the time frame by which a Lessor must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (ii) provide that a Lessor may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a Lessee or to clean the premises, it being agreed that, subject to the limitations of Section 7.07(d) below, Lessor may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Section 4.05 and/or those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Lessor for any loss or damage caused by Lessee’s breach of this Lease, including any damages Lessor suffers following termination of this Lease.

 

ARTICLE V

USE

 

Section 5.01 Permitted Use and Limitations on Use.

 

The Premises shall be used and occupied only for the following purposes: general office, research and development, software or hardware laboratory purposes and sales and for no other use, without Lessor’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as such use is lawful and does not conflict with any other provision of this Lease including without limitation the restrictions set forth in the following

 

14


provisions of this Section. Lessee shall not use, suffer or permit the use of the Premises in any manner that will tend to constitute waste, nuisance or unlawful acts provided, that biological and chemical and other waste generated and disposed of in the ordinary course of business for the permitted uses in full and timely compliance with all applicable laws shall not be deemed a violation of this Section 5.01. In no event shall it be unreasonable for Lessor to withhold its consent as to uses other than those expressly permitted above which it determines would tend to increase materially the wear of the Premises or any part thereof or increase the potential liability of Lessor or decrease the marketability, financability, leasability or value of the Premises or Project. Lessee shall not do anything in or about the Premises which will (i) cause structural injury to the Building or Premises, or (ii) cause damage to any part of the Building or Premises except to the extent reasonably necessary for the installation of Lessee’s trade fixtures and Lessee’s Alterations, and then only in a manner and to the extent consistent with this Lease. Lessee shall not operate any equipment within the Building or Premises which will (a) materially damage the Building or the Common Area, (b) overload existing electrical systems or other mechanical equipment servicing the Building, (c) impair the efficient operation of the sprinkler system or the heating, ventilating or air conditioning (“HVAC”) equipment within or servicing the Building, (d) damage, overload or corrode the sanitary sewer system, or (e) damage the Common Area or any other part of the Project. Lessee shall not attach, hang or suspend anything from the ceiling, roof, walls (other than artwork and standard wall hangings that are hung on the interior walls of the Premises and do not affect the structural components of the building) or columns of the Building or set any load on the floor in excess of the load limits for which such items are designed nor operate hard wheel forklifts within the Premises. Any dust, fumes, or waste products generated by Lessee’s use of the Premises shall be contained and disposed so that they do not (1) create an unreasonable fire or health hazard, (2) damage the Premises, or (3) result in the violation of any law. Except as approved by Lessor, Lessee shall not change the exterior of the Building, or the outside area of the Premises, or install any equipment or antennas on or make any penetrations of the exterior or roof of the Building. Lessee shall not conduct on any portion of the Premises any sale of any kind (but nothing herein is meant to prohibit sales and marketing activities of Lessee’s products and services in the normal course of business consistent with the permitted uses), including any public or private auction, fire sale, going-out-of-business sale, distress sale or other liquidation sale, and any such sale shall be an immediate event of default hereunder without the benefit of a notice and cure period from Lessor, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease. No materials, supplies, tanks or containers, equipment, finished products or semifinished products, raw materials, inoperable vehicles or articles of any nature shall be stored upon or permitted to remain within the outside areas of the Premises except in fully fenced and screened areas outside the Building which have been designed for such purpose and have been approved in writing by Lessor for such use by Lessee and for which Lessee has obtained all appropriate permits from governmental agencies having jurisdiction over such articles.

 

Section 5.02 Compliance with Law.

 

(a) Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee on the Commencement Date (without regard to the use for which Lessee will use the Premises) free of violations of Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as such Act existed as of the date the Premises were built.

 

15


(b) Except as provided in paragraph 5.02(a), Lessee shall, at Lessee’s cost and expense, comply promptly with all statutes, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations, orders, covenants and restrictions of record, and requirements applicable to the Premises and Lessee’s particular use and occupancy of same in effect during any part of the Lease Term, whether the same are presently foreseeable or not, and without regard to the cost or expense of compliance provided that any Alteration(s) required for compliance shall be subject to the provisions of this Lease.

 

(c) By executing this Lease, Lessee acknowledges that it has reviewed and satisfied itself as to its compliance, or intended compliance with the applicable zoning and permit laws, hazardous materials and waste requirements, and all other statutes, laws, or ordinances relevant to the uses stated in Section 5.01, above.

 

Section 5.03 Condition of Premises at Commencement Date.

 

Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee on the Commencement Date with the Building roof and the base building plumbing, lighting, heating, ventilating, air conditioning (excluding the Liebert units on the first and second floors), gas, electrical (excluding the two UPS units located on the first floor), and sprinkler systems (but not any supplemental portions thereof added to such base building systems and surrendered by any previous tenants of the Building) in good operating condition, subject to any damage thereto caused by Lessee while at the Premises prior to the Commencement Date. Additionally, on or before the Commencement Date, Lessor shall, at Lessor’s expense, (i) raise the existing separating wall height in the cubes to sixty-six inches, replace the perforated panel between the cubes with a solid panel, and shall add on an additional work surface (24 inches or 36 inches) in the cubes pursuant to mutually agreed upon specifications, (ii) shall be responsible for a one-time reconfiguration of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the existing cubicles in the Premises, provided that Lessor shall not be obligated to spend more than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) in connection with such reconfiguration. Further, the obligations of Lessor hereunder shall not apply to the extent that Lessee’s actions on the Premises shall result in the termination or invalidity of any warranty that Lessor has received from a third party in connection with those building systems. Subject only to the foregoing sentence, Section 5.02(a) above and Sections 5.04 and 6.01(b) below, and having made such inspection of the Premises, Furniture, Building and Project as it deemed prudent and appropriate (including, without limitation, testing for the presence of mold), Lessee hereby accepts the Premises and Furniture in their condition existing as of the Commencement Date, “AS-IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws, ordinances and regulations governing and regulating the use and condition of the Premises, and any covenants or restrictions, liens, encumbrances and title exceptions of record, and accepts this Lease subject thereto and to all matters disclosed thereby and by any exhibits attached hereto. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 5.02(a) and Section 5.03 above as to the condition of the Premises on the Commencement Date, Lessee acknowledges that neither Lessor nor any agent of Lessor has made any representation or warranty as to the present or future suitability of the Premises or Furniture for the conduct of Lessee’s business.

 

16


Section 5.04 Defective Condition at Commencement Date.

 

In the event that Lessee determines, and Lessee notifies Lessor in writing within six (6) months after the Commencement Date, that any of the obligations of Lessor set forth in Section 5.02(a) or Section 5.03 were not performed, and such failure is not due to Alterations to the Premises made by Lessee or Lessee’s activities at the Premises, then it shall be the obligation of Lessor (and together with its rights under Section 12.03 the sole right and remedy of Lessee), after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature of the failed performance, to promptly, within a reasonable time and at Lessor’s sole cost, correct same. Except as to certain defects which remain Lessor’s responsibility under Section 6.01(b) Lessee’s failure to give such written notice to Lessor within six (6) months after the Commencement Date shall constitute a conclusive presumption that Lessor has complied with all of Lessor’s obligations under the foregoing Section 5.02(a) and Section 5.03, and any required correction after that date shall be performed by Lessee, at its sole cost and expense.

 

Section 5.05 Building Security.

 

Lessee acknowledges and agrees that it assumes sole responsibility for security at the Premises for its agents, employees, invitees, licensees, contractors, guests and visitors and will provide such systems and personnel for same including, without limitation, while such person(s) are using the Common Area, as it deems necessary or appropriate and at its sole cost and expense. Lessor shall have absolutely no liability whatsoever with respect to the security of Lessee’s agents, employees or invitees or their respective personal property at the Project. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor does not intend to provide any security system or security personnel at the Premises or Project, including, without limitation, at the Common Area, provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent Lessor from providing such system or personnel in the future, the cost of which will be included in those items for which Lessee pays additional rent. Lessee may, at Lessee’s sole expense and at Lessee’s sole risk, connect its own building security system to any existing security system built into the Building by Lessor; provided, however, that: (i) no such activities by Lessee shall be permitted if the effect would be to terminate or lessen any warranties that Lessor has received on such security system, and (ii) Lessor shall have absolutely no liability whatsoever to Lessee, nor shall Lessee be entitled to any reduction in the Base Rent due hereunder, due to any failure, defect of such security system or failure of such systems to prevent theft, loss or injury.

 

Section 5.06 Rules and Regulations.

 

Lessor may from time to time promulgate reasonable and nondiscriminatory rules and regulations applicable for the care and orderly management of the Premises, the Project and/or its Common Area. Such rules and regulations shall be binding upon Lessee upon delivery of a copy thereof to Lessee, and Lessee agrees to abide by such rules and regulations. A copy of the initial Rules and Regulations is attached hereto as Exhibit ”D.” If there is a conflict between the rules and regulations and any of the provisions of this Lease, the provisions of this Lease shall prevail. Lessor shall not be responsible for the violation of any such rules and regulations by any person, including, without limitation, Lessee or its employees, agents, invitees, licensees, guests, visitors or contractors.

ARTICLE VI

MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS

 

Section 6.01 Maintenance of Premises and Building.

 

(a) Throughout the Lease Term, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall keep, maintain, repair and replace the Premises and every part thereof (except as provided in 6.01(b) and also except for uninsured maintenance, repairs or replacement costs caused solely by an act of negligence or intentional misconduct by Lessor during the Lease Term) and all improvements and appurtenances in the Premises, including, without limitation, all interior walls, all doors and windows, all wall surfaces and floor coverings, the Furniture and Alterations, additions and improvements installed by or on behalf of Lessee during the Lease Term, all sewer, plumbing, electrical, lighting, heating, ventilation and cooling systems and fixtures, fire sprinklers, fire safety and security systems and fixtures and all wiring and glazing, in the same good order, condition and repair as they are in on the Commencement Date, or may be improved during the Lease Term, reasonable wear excepted, provided that wear which could be prevented by first class maintenance shall not be deemed reasonable.

 

(b) Lessor, at its sole cost and expense, (and in addition to its obligations set forth in Section 5.04) shall repair defects in the exterior walls (including all exterior glass which is damaged by structural defects in such exterior walls), supporting pillars, structural walls, roof structure and foundations of the Building and sewer and plumbing systems outside the Building. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the need for such repair is caused by Lessee, Lessor shall, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, repair same. Lessor, subject to recovering the cost and expense of same as an Operating Expense (except for damage, other than normal wear and tear, caused by Lessee or its employees, agents, contractors, invitees or visitors, the cost and expense of which shall be paid by Lessee within thirty (30) days after presentation of Lessor’s bill for same), shall maintain and repair the roof membrane of the Building; provided, however, that Lessor’s obligation under this Section 6.01(b) in any instance where the damage, other than normal wear and tear, was caused by Lessor or its employees, agents or contractors and is not covered by insurance maintained by Lessee or which Lessee is required to maintain hereunder shall not be recovered by Lessor from Lessee as Operating Expenses or in any other manner. Lessee shall give Lessor written notice of any needed repairs which are the obligation of Lessor hereunder. It shall then be the obligation of Lessor, after receipt of such notice, to perform the same within ten (10) business days after such notice; provided, however, that if the nature of the repairs is such that more than ten (10) business days are reasonably required for performance, then Lessor shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder if Lessor commences such repairs within said ten (10) business day period and thereafter diligently completes them and provided further, that for purposes of this sentence “commences” includes any steps taken by Lessor to investigate, design, consult, bid or seek permit or other governmental approval in connection with such repair. Should Lessor default as provided in Section 12.03 with respect to its obligation to make any of the repairs assumed by it hereunder with respect to the Premises or Building, Lessee shall have the right to perform such repairs and Lessor agrees that within thirty (30) days after written demand accompanied by detailed invoice(s), it shall pay to Lessee the cost of any such repairs together with accrued interest from the date of Lessee’s payment at the Agreed Rate. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any damage to person or property as a result of any failure to

 

18


timely perform any of its obligations with respect to the repair, maintenance or replacement of the Premises, Buildings or Project or any part thereof, and Lessee’s sole right and remedy (together with its rights under Section 12.03 below) shall be the performance of said repairs by Lessee with right of reimbursement from Lessor of the reasonable fair market cost of said repairs, not exceeding the out-of-pocket sums actually expended by Lessee, together with accrued interest from the date of Lessee’s payment at the Agreed Rate, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to create a right of setoff or withholding by Lessee of Base Rent or Additional Rent or any other amounts due herein. Lessee hereby expressly waives all rights under and benefits of Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect to make repairs and offset the cost of same against rent or to withhold or delay any payment of rent or any other of its obligations hereunder as a result of any default by Lessor under this Section 6.01(b).

 

(c) Lessee agrees to keep the Premises, both inside and out, clean and in sanitary condition as required by the health, sanitary and police ordinances and regulations of any political subdivision having jurisdiction and to remove all trash and debris which may be found in or around the Premises. Lessee further agrees to keep the interior surfaces of the Premises, including, without limitation, windows, floors, walls, doors, showcases and fixtures clean and neat in appearance.

 

(d) If Lessee refuses or neglects to commence such repairs and/or maintenance for which Lessee is responsible under this Article VI within a ten (10) day period (or as soon as practical and in no event later than five (5) days, if the failure to initiate the repair threatens to cause further damage to the Premises) after written notice from Lessor and thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion, then Lessor may (i) enter the Premises (except in an emergency, upon at least 24 hours advance written notice) during Lessor’s business hours and cause such repairs and/or maintenance to be made and shall not be responsible to Lessee for any loss or damage occasioned thereby other than physical damage to the Premises caused by the negligence of Lessor which damage Lessor shall repair at its sole cost as Lessor’s sole obligation and Lessee’s sole right and remedy with respect to such damages, and Lessee agrees that upon demand, it shall pay to Lessor the reasonable cost of any such repairs, not exceeding the amount of out-of-pocket expenses actually expended by Lessor, together with accrued interest from the date of Lessor’s payment at the Agreed Rate, and (ii) if Lessor becomes entitled to enter the Premises as aforesaid more than once in any twelve (12) calendar months or more than twice during the Lease Term, elect to enter into a maintenance contract at a market rate for first-rate maintenance with a third party for the performance of all or a part of Lessee’s maintenance obligations, whereupon, Lessee shall be relieved from its obligations to perform only those maintenance obligations covered by such maintenance contract, and Lessee shall bear the entire cost of such maintenance contract which shall be paid in advance, as Additional Rent, on a monthly basis with Lessee’s Base Rent payments.

 

Section 6.02 Maintenance of Common Areas.

 

Lessor shall maintain, repair and replace all landscape, hardscape and other improvements within the Common Area and shall operate and manage the Common Area features and facilities described in Section 2.02 including, without limitation, all landscape, hardscape and other improvements within the outside areas of Building and the other Buildings

 

19


located within the Project, including without limitation, landscaping, curbs, walkways, driveways, roadways, parking areas and lighting, sprinkler, drainage, sewer, plumbing systems. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any damage thereto, except for normal wear, caused by Lessee or its employees, agents, contractors, invitees or visitors which shall be repaired by Lessor and the cost thereof shall be paid by Lessee within thirty (30) days after presentation of Lessor’s bill for same. The cost and expense of Lessor’s obligations hereunder shall be Operating Expenses as to which Lessee shall pay Lessee’s Share pursuant to Section 4.04; provided, however, that Lessor’s obligation under this Section 6.02(b) in any instance where the damage, other than normal wear and tear, was caused by Lessor or its employees, agents or contractors shall not be recovered by Lessor from Lessee as Operating Expense or in any other manner.

 

Section 6.03 Alterations, Additions and Improvements.

 

No alterations, additions, or improvements (“Alterations”) shall be made to the Premises by Lessee without the prior written consent of Lessors which Lessor will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay, provided, however, that Lessee may make Alterations (including removal and rearrangement of the prior Alterations) which do not affect the Building systems, exterior appearance, structural components or structural integrity, which do not require a building permit and which do not exceed collectively One Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars ($120,000) in cost within any twelve (12) month period, without Lessor’s prior written consent. As a condition to Lessor’s obligation to consider any request for consent hereunder, Lessee shall pay Lessor upon demand for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of consultants, engineers, architects and others for reviewing plans and specifications and for monitoring the construction of any proposed Alterations. Lessor may require Lessee to remove any such Alterations at the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term and to restore the Premises to their prior condition pursuant to the terms of Section 17.09 hereof; provided, however, that if requested in writing by Lessee to do so at the time consent for such Alteration is requested, Lessor shall inform Lessee at the time Lessor consents to such Alteration whether such Alteration must be removed from the Premises upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. All Alterations to be made to the Premises shall be made under the supervision of a competent, California licensed architect and/or competent California licensed structural engineer (each of whom has been approved by Lessor) and shall be made in accordance with plans and specifications which have been furnished to and approved by Lessor in writing prior to commencement of work. All Alterations shall be designed, constructed and installed at the sole cost and expense of Lessee by California licensed architects, engineers, and contractors approved by Lessor, in compliance with all applicable law, and in good and workmanlike manner, and shall have been approved in writing by the City of Sunnyvale and any other applicable governmental agencies. Such approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by Lessor. Subject to Lessor’s right to have Lessee retain ownership and remove same, any Alteration, including, without limitation, all lighting, electrical, heating, ventilation, air conditioning and full height partitioning, drapery and carpeting installations made by Lessee, together with all property that has become an integral part of the Premises, shall not be deemed trade fixtures and shall become the property of Lessor at the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease. For those Alterations which do not require Lessor’s consent, to the extent specifically requested of Lessor in writing by Lessee at the time such Alteration is made, Lessor shall by written notice to Lessee advise Lessee whether Lessee is required to remove such Alterations upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Lessee shall retain title to all furniture

 

20


and trade fixtures placed on the Premises. Within thirty (30) days after completion of any Alteration, Lessee shall provide Lessor with a complete set of “as built” plans for same.

 

Section 6.04 Covenant Against Liens.

 

Lessee shall not allow any liens arising from any act or omission of Lessee to exist, attach to, be placed on, or encumber Lessor’s or Lessee’s interest in the Premises, Building or Project, or any portion of either, by operation of law or otherwise. Lessee shall not suffer or permit any lien of mechanics, material suppliers, or others to be placed against the Premises, Building or Project, or any portion of either, with respect to work or services performed or claimed to have been performed for Lessee or materials furnished or claimed to have been furnished to Lessee or the Premises. Lessor has the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notice that it considers necessary for protection from such liens. At least ten (10) days before beginning construction of any Alteration, Lessee shall give Lessor written notice of the expected commencement date of that construction to permit Lessor to post and record a notice of nonresponsibility. If any such lien attaches or Lessee received notice of any such lien, Lessee shall cause the lien to be immediately released and removed of record. Despite any other provision of this Lease, if the lien is not released and removed within twenty (20) days after Lessor delivers notice of the lien to Lessee, Lessor may immediately take all action necessary to release and remove the lien, without any duty to investigate the validity of it. All expenses (including reasonable attorney fees and the cost of any bond) incurred by Lessor in connection with a lien incurred by Lessee or its removal shall be considered Additional Rent under this Lease and be immediately due and payable by Lessee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense, defend and protect itself, Lessor and the Premises, Building and Project against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof. If Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish a surety bond in an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount of such contested lien, claim or demand, indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same. If Lessor elects to participate in or is made a party to any such action, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor’s attorneys’ fees and costs within thirty (30) days after demand.

 

Section 6.05 Lessee Improvements.

 

Upon execution of this Lease, Lessor and Lessee shall also execute a Work Letter for Lessee Improvements in the form of the agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Work Letter”). Lessee shall install certain Lessee improvements in the Premises pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter.

 

ARTICLE VII

INSURANCE

 

Section 7.01 Property/Rental Insurance for Premises.

Lessee shall pay Lessee’s Share of any deductibles; provided, however, that in no event shall Lessee’s Share of any deductible exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). The amount of such insurance shall not be less than 100% of replacement cost.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessee, in its sole discretion determined that it cannot maintain earthquake and earthquake sprinkler leakage insurance coverage, or flood coverage, at commercially reasonable premiums, then Lessee can instead request that Lessor carry such earthquake and/or flood insurance coverage on Lessee’s behalf, and the cost of such additional coverage shall be reimbursed by Lessee to Lessor within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice therefor by Lessor. In connection therewith, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that Lessor shall have no obligation to maintain any such earthquake and/or flood insurance coverage on any Alterations made to the Premises by Lessee unless Lessee informs Lessor of such Alterations in writing, which notice shall include a description of the Alteration and the replacement value thereof, and if Lessee fails to provide Lessor with written notice of such Alterations, then Lessee shall be deemed to have self-insured any such Alteration, and shall be responsible, at Lessee’s sole expense, for the replacement of such Alteration in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Further, to the extent that Lessor provides such earthquake and/or flood insurance hereunder, then Lessor’s sole obligations in the event of such a casualty shall be to deliver any proceeds of such a policy to Lessee in order for Lessee to perform Lessee’s rebuilding or replacement obligations hereunder. The amount of such insurance shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the replacement cost thereof with commercially reasonable deductibles, and, except as provided for herein, Lessor shall not have any responsibility nor pay any cost for maintaining any types of such insurance. Lessee shall pay all deductibles, subject to the terms of Section 7.01 above.

Such insurance shall include coverage for additional lessors or Premises and coverage for “amendment of the pollution exclusion” to provide coverage for damage caused by heat, smoke, fumes from a hostile fire. The limits of said insurance required by this Lease as carried by Lessee shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligation hereunder. All insurance to be carried by the Lessee shall be primary to and not contributory with, any similar insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall be considered excess insurance only.

Lessor and Lessee each shall use diligence in making such repairs within a reasonable time period, subject to the Force Majeure provisions of Section 17.21, in which instance the time period shall be extended accordingly, and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, with the rent to be proportionately reduced as provided above in this Section.

If Lessor states that it will repair within said nine (9) months (subject to Force Majeure), Lessor shall, upon receipt of and to the extent of insurance proceeds paid in connection with such casualty and the deductible amount from Lessee (to the extent required to

 

25


be paid pursuant to Article VII hereof), forthwith conduct the repair and diligently pursue the same to completion, but such destruction shall in no way annul or void this Lease, provided that Lessee shall be entitled, as of the date Lessee’s use of the Premises is impaired due to such casualty, to a proportionate credit for rent equal to rental income insurance proceeds received by Lessor (or which would have been received by Lessor had Lessor maintained the rental income insurance specified in Subsection 7.01(iii) above).

 

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Section 8.01, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease in the event any of the following occurs, which right may be exercised only by delivery to Lessor of a written notice of election to terminate within thirty (30) days after Lessee receives from Lessor the estimate of the time needed to complete such restoration:

 

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

Section 8.03 No Abatement of Rentals.

 

The Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges due under this Lease shall not be reduced or abated by reason of any damage or destruction to the Premises (but will be subject to credit as provided in Section 8.01(a) and (b) above with respect to rental loss insurance proceeds received or which would have been received had Lessor maintained the rental loss insurance specified in Subsection 7.01(iii) above), and Lessor shall be entitled to all proceeds of the insurance maintained pursuant to Section 7.01 above during the period of rebuilding pursuant to Section 8.01 above, or if the Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01 above, to the extent the insured item in question is or would become the property of Lessor upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor, including, without limitation, for compensation for inconvenience or loss of business, profits or goodwill during any period of repair or reconstruction.

Section 9.02 Pro Ration for Partial Years.

 

If any such taxes paid by Lessee shall cover any period prior to the Commencement Date or after the Expiration Date of the Lease Term, Lessee’s Share of such taxes shall be equitably prorated to cover only the period of time within the tax fiscal year during which this Lease shall be in effect, and Lessor shall reimburse Lessee to any extent required.

Lessor may, at Lessee’s expense, install devices which separately meter Lessee’s consumption of utilities. The disruption, failure, lack or shortage of any service or utility with respect to the Premises, Building or Project due to any cause whatsoever shall not affect any obligation of Lessee hereunder, and Lessee shall faithfully keep and observe all the terms, conditions and covenants of this Lease and pay all rent due hereunder, all without diminution, credit or deduction, provided that, to the extent the cause is the failure of Lessor to observe or perform an obligation of Lessor, hereunder Lessor shall initiate the cure of such failure immediately after receipt from Lessee of notice of the failure and Lessor shall thereafter diligently prosecute said cure to completion.

 

ARTICLE XI

ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

 

Section 11.01 Lessor’s Consent Required.

 

Except as provided in Section 11.02, Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet, license or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part of Lessee’s interest in this Lease or in the Premises or any part thereof, without Lessor’s prior written consent, which Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Lessor shall respond in writing to Lessee’s request for consent hereunder in a timely manner and any attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance, subletting or licensing without such consent shall be void, and shall constitute a breach of this Lease. By way of example, but not limitation, reasonable grounds for denying consent include: (i) poor credit history or insufficient financial strength of transferee, (ii) transferee’s intended use of the Premises is inconsistent with the permitted use or will materially and adversely affect Lessor’s interest. Lessee shall reimburse Lessor upon demand for Lessor’s reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, architect fees and engineering fees) involved in renewing any request for consent whether or not consent is granted, not to exceed Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500).

 

Section 11.02 Lessee Affiliates.

 

Lessee may assign or sublet the Premises, or any portion thereof, without Lessor’s consent, to any corporation which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Lessee, or to any corporation resulting from the merger or consolidation with Lessee, or to any person or entity which acquires all of Lessee’s stock or all, or substantially all of the assets of

 

29


Lessee as a going concern of the business that is being conducted on the Premises (“Affiliate”), provided that said assignee or sublessee assumes, in full, the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, the net worth of the Affiliate is at least equal to the greater of Lessee’s net worth as of the date of this Lease or the net worth of Lessee as of the date of such transfer, Lessee is not released of Lessee’s obligations or liability hereunder and provided further that the use to which the Premises will be put does not materially change. Any such assignment shall not, in any way, affect or limit the liability of Lessee under the terms of this Lease. Any portion of the Premises which is assigned or sublet to an Affiliate of Lessee shall not be included in the calculation of subleased, assigned or transferred Rentable Area for the purposes of Section 11.06.

 

Section 11.03 No Release of Lessee.

 

Regardless of Lessor’s consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Lessee of Lessee’s obligation or alter the primary liability of Lessee to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of default by any assignee of Lessee or any successor of Lessee, in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee without the necessity of exhausting remedies against said assignee.

 

Section 11.04 Excess Rent.

 

In the event Lessor shall consent to a sublease or an assignment, Lessee shall pay to Lessor with its regularly scheduled Base Rent payments, fifty percent (50%) of all sums and the fair market value of all consideration collected or received by Lessee from a sublessee or assignee which are in excess of the Base Rent and Additional Rent due and payable with respect to the subject space pursuant to Article IV for the time period encompassed by the sublease or assignment term, after first deducting: (i) reasonable leasing commissions paid by Lessee with respect to such sublease or assignment, which commissions shall not exceed those which are then being typically charged in the Sunnyvale market for similar sublease transactions, and (ii) legal fees associated with such transfer not in excess of Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500). The amount of such transfer costs shall be amortized over the term of such sublease for the purposes of this Section 11.04.

 

Section 11.05 Information to be Provided.

 

Lessee’s written request to Lessor for consent to an assignment or subletting or other form of transfer shall be accompanied by (a) the name and legal composition of the proposed transferee; (b) the nature of the proposed transferee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (c) the terms and provisions of the proposed transfer agreement; and (d) such financial and other reasonable information as Lessor may request concerning the proposed transferee.

 

Section 11.06 Lessor’s Recapture Rights.

 

(a) Lessor’s Recapture Rights.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 11, in the event that Lessee proposes to sublease or assign or otherwise transfer to any person or entity not an Affiliate of

 

30


Lessee any interest in this Lease or the Premises or any part thereof affecting (collectively with all other such subleases, assignments, or transfers then in effect) more than fifty percent (50%) of the square footage of the Rentable Area of the Building (such affected portion of the Rentable Area of the Premises is hereafter designated “Recapture Space”) for more than fifty percent (50%) of the then remaining Lease Term, then Lessor shall have the option to recapture the Recapture Space by written notice to Lessee (“Recapture Notice”) given within ten (10) business days after Lessor receives any notice of such proposed assignment or sublease or other transfer (“Transfer Notice”). A timely Recapture Notice terminates this Lease for the Recapture Space, effective as of the date specified in the Transfer Notice. If Lessor declines or fails timely to deliver a Recapture Notice, Lessor shall have no further right under this Section 11.06 to the Recapture Space unless it becomes available again after transfer by Lessee. Lessor’s recapture rights shall be subject to the rights of any sublessee, assignee or transferee of Lessee set forth in any sublease, assignment or agreement of transfer to which Lessor has consented, but subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Lessor’s consent; any such sublease, assignment or agreement of transfer shall be assigned to Lessor as of the effective date of the recapture.

 

(b) Consequences of Recapture.

 

To determine the new Base Rent under this Lease if Lessor recaptures the Recapture Space, the then current Base Rent (immediately before Lessor’s recapture) under the Lease shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the square feet of the Rentable Area retained by Lessee after Lessor’s recapture and the denominator of which is the total square feet of the Rentable Area before Lessor’s recapture. The Additional Rent, to the extent that it is calculated on the Rentable Area of the Premises, shall be reduced to reflect Lessee’s Share based on the Rentable Areas of the Premises retained by Lessee after Lessor’s recapture. This Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect. Either party may require written confirmation of the amendments to this Lease necessitated by Lessor’s recapture of the Recapture Space. If Lessor recaptures the Recapture Space, Lessor shall, at Lessor’s sole expense, construct, paint, and furnish any partitions required to segregate the Recapture Space from the remaining Premises retained by Lessee as well as arrange separate metering of utilities.

(a) The abandonment of the Premises by Lessee or the commission of waste at the Premises or the making of an assignment or subletting in violation of Article XI, provided however, that Lessee shall not be in default under the Lease if it abandons all or any part of the Premises so long as (i) Lessee is performing all of its other obligations under the Lease, including the obligation to pay Rent (ii) Lessee provides on-site security during normal business hours for those parts of the Premises left vacant, (iii) such abandonment does not materially and adversely affect the validity or coverage of any policy of insurance carried by Lessor or Lessee with respect to the Premises, and (iv) the utilities and heating and ventilation system are operated

In the event that Lessor serves Lessee with a Notice to Pay Rent or Quit in the form required by applicable Unlawful Detainer statutes such Notice shall constitute the notice required by this paragraph, provided that the cure period stated in the Notice shall be five (5) business days rather than the statutory three (3) days;

 

(c) Lessee’s failure to provide (i) any instrument or assurance as required by Section 7.05 or (ii) estoppel certificate as required by Section 15.01 or (iii) any document subordinating this Lease to a Lender’s deed of trust as required by Section 17.13, if any such failure continues for five (5) business days after written notice of the failure. In the event Lessor serves Lessee with a Notice to Perform Covenant or Quit in the form required by applicable Unlawful Detainer Statutes, such Notice shall constitute the notice required by this paragraph, provided that the cure period stated in the Notice shall be five (5) business days rather than the statutory three (3) days;

 

(d) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee, other than described in paragraph (a) (b) or (c) above, if such failure continues for a period of fifteen (15) business days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee’s default is such that more than fifteen (15) business days are reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee commences such cure within said fifteen (15) business day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion within sixty (60) days of the date of such written notice;

 

(e) (i) The making by Lessee of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the filing by Lessee of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy under Title 11 U.S.C. or the filing of an involuntary petition against Lessee which remains uncontested for a period of sixty days; (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease and such is not discharged within sixty (60) days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease and such is not discharged within sixty (60) days, provided, however, in the event that any provisions of this Section 12.01(e) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect;

 

(f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement given to Lessor by Lessee was materially false; and

 

(g) The occurrence of a material default and breach by Lessee under any other Lease between Lessee and Lessor (or any affiliate of Lessor) for premises in the Project.

 

32


Section 12.02 Remedies.

 

In the event of any such material default and breach by Lessee, Lessor may at any time thereafter, and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such default and breach:

 

(a) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means including by way of unlawful detainer (and without any further notice if a notice in compliance with the unlawful detainer statutes and in compliance with paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of Section 12.01 above has already been given), in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee’s default including, but not limited to, (i) the cost of recovering possession of the Premises including reasonable attorney’s fees related thereto; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of any unpaid rent (including the Excused Base Rent, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof) that had been earned at the time of the termination, to be computed by allowing interest at the Agreed Rate but in no case greater than the maximum amount of interest permitted by law, (iii) the worth at the time at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent that would have been earned between the time of the termination and the time of the award exceeds the amount of unpaid rent that Lessee proves could reasonably have been avoided, to be computed by allowing interest at the Agreed Rate but in no case greater than the maximum amount of interest permitted by law, (iv) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of the award exceeds the amount of unpaid rent that Lessee proves could reasonably have been avoided, to be computed by discounting that amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus one per cent (1%), (v) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by Lessee’s failure to perform obligations under this Lease, including brokerage commissions and advertising expenses to relet the Premises, expenses of remodeling the Premises for a new tenant (whether for the same or a different use), and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant, and (vi) any other amounts, in addition to or in lieu of those listed above, that may be permitted by applicable law.

 

(b) Maintain Lessee’s right to possession as provided in Civil Code Section 1951.4 in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the Premises. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent as it becomes due hereunder.

 

(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the state of California. Unpaid amounts of rent and other unpaid monetary obligations of Lessee under the terms of this Lease shall bear interest from the date due at the Agreed Rate.

 

33


Section 12.03 Default by Lessor.

 

Lessor shall not be in default under this Lease unless Lessor fails to perform obligations required of Lessor within a reasonable time, but in no event later than ten (10) business days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor and to the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose name and address shall have theretofore been furnished to Lessee in writing, specifying that Lessor has failed to perform such obligation; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than ten (10) business days are reasonably required for performance then Lessor shall not be in default if Lessor commences performance within such ten (10) business day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. Lessee waives any right to terminate this Lease or to vacate the Premises on Lessor’s default under this Lease, provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to deny Lessee its rights pursuant to Section 12.01(a) of this Lease. Lessee’s sole remedy on Lessor’s default is an action for damages or injunctive or declaratory relief.

 

Section 12.04 Late Charges.

 

Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor’s designated agent within five (5) days after such amount is due and owing, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such overdue amount every time a late charge is payable during the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor agrees, on a one-time only basis, and during the first twelve (12) months of the Lease Term only, to provide Lessee with written notice of Lessee’s failure to pay any amount due and owing hereunder, and the late charge described in this Section 12.04 shall not be due and owing on that one occasion unless Lessee fails to pay Lessor the amounts past due and owing hereunder within five (5) days after the date of such written notice. Other than that one occasion, if any, during the first twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, the late charge provided for herein shall be payable as otherwise provided for in this Section 12.04. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for three (3) consecutive installments of rent, then rent shall automatically become due and payable quarterly in advance, rather than monthly, notwithstanding Section 4.01 or any other provision of this Lease to the contrary.

 

Section 12.05 Lessor’s Right to Perform Lessee’s Obligations.

 

All obligations to be performed or observed by Lessee under this Lease shall be performed or observed by Lessee at Lessee’s expense and without any reduction of rent. Upon written notice to Lessee (except in the event of an emergency), Lessor may perform or observe

 

34


any obligation of Lessee which is in default hereunder, without waiving Lessor’s other rights and remedies for Lessee’s failure to perform or observe any obligations under this Lease and without releasing Lessee from any such obligations. Within thirty (30) days after receiving a statement from Lessor, Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of expense reasonably incurred by Lessor in performing or observing Lessee’s obligation.

 

ARTICLE XIII

CONDEMNATION OF PREMISES

 

Section 13.01 Total Condemnation.

 

If the entire Premises, whether by exercise of governmental power or the sale or transfer by Lessor to any condemnor under threat of condemnation or while proceedings for condemnation are pending, at any time during the Lease Term, shall be taken by condemnation such that there does not remain a portion suitable for occupation, this Lease shall then terminate as of the date transfer of possession is required. Upon such condemnation, all rent shall be paid up to the date transfer of possession is required, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor or the award for the value of the unexpired portion of this Lease Term.

 

Section 13.02 Partial Condemnation.

 

If any portion of the Premises is taken by condemnation during the Lease Term, whether by exercise of governmental power or the sale for transfer by Lessor to an condemnor under threat of condemnation or while proceedings for condemnation are pending, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect except that in the event a partial taking (i) is more than twenty percent (20%) of the total square footage of the Premises; or (ii) leaves the Premises unfit for the conduct of the business of Lessee, then Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective upon the date transfer of possession is required. Moreover, Lessor shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective on the date transfer of possession is required if more than twenty percent (20%) of the total square footage of the Premises or Project is taken by condemnation. Lessee and Lessor may elect to exercise their respective rights to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section by serving written notice to the other within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of condemnation. All rent shall be paid up to the date of termination, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for the value of any unexpired portion of the Lease Term. If this Lease shall not be terminated, the rent after such partial taking shall be that percentage of the adjusted Base Rent specified herein, equal to the percentage which the square footage of the untaken part of the Premises, immediately after the taking, bears to the square footage of the entire Premises immediately before the taking. If Lessee’s continued use of the Premises requires alterations and repair by reason of a partial taking, all such alterations and repair shall be made by Lessee at Lessee’s expense, provided that any condemnation award for such alterations and repair shall be paid over to Lessee. Lessee waives all rights it may have under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 or otherwise, to terminate this Lease based on partial condemnation.

 

Section 13.03 Award to Lessee.

 

In the event of any condemnation, whether total or partial, Lessee shall have the right to claim and recover from the condemning authority such compensation as may be

 

35


separately awarded or recoverable by Lessee for loss of its business fixtures, or equipment belonging to Lessee immediately prior to the condemnation and relocation costs. The balance of any condemnation award shall belong to Lessor (including, without limitation, any amount attributable to any excess of the market value of the Premises for the remainder of the Lease Term over the then present value of the rent payable for the remainder of the Lease Term) and Lessee shall have no further right to recover from Lessor or the condemning authority for any claims arising out of such taking.

 

ARTICLE XIV

ENTRY BY LESSOR

 

Section 14.01 Entry by Lessor Permitted.

 

Lessee shall permit Lessor and its employees, agents and contractors to enter the Premises and all parts thereof (i) upon twenty-four (24) hours notice (or without notice in an emergency), including without limitation, the Building and all parts thereof at all reasonable times for any of the following purposes: to inspect the Premises; to maintain the Premises; to make such repairs to the Premises as Lessor is obligated or may elect to make; to make repairs, alterations or additions to any other portion of the Premises or in connection with the use, maintenance, repair or modification of any existing MPOE in the Building and (ii) upon twenty-four (24) hours notice to show the Premises and post “To Lease” signs for the purposes of reletting during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term (provided that Lessee has failed to exercise its option to extend) or extended Lease Term to show the Premises as part of a prospective sale by Lessor or to post notices of nonresponsibility. Lessor shall have such right of entry without any rebate of rent to Lessee for any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises hereby occasioned.

 

ARTICLE XV

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

 

Section 15.01 Estoppel Certificate.

 

(a) Lessee shall at any time upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice from Lessor execute, acknowledge and deliver to Lessor a statement in writing (i) certifying, if true, that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification and certifying, if true, that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging, if true, that there are not, to Lessee’s knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Lessor hereunder, or specifying such defaults if any are claimed and (iii) certifying or acknowledging, if true, such other matters as are requested by any prospective lender or buyer which are reasonably related to the loan or sale transaction. Any such statement may be conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the Premises.

 

(b) Lessee’s failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Lessee (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Lessor, (ii) that there are no uncured defaults in Lessor’s performance, and (iii) that not more than one month’s rent has been paid in advance, if any, and stating

 

36


whether or not to the actual knowledge of the signer of such certificate Lessee is in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default of which the signer may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Section 15.01(b) may be relied upon by any prospective assignee of Lessee’s interest in this Lease or any lender or prospective lender (or investor) or purchaser of any interest in Lessee or its assets.

 

(c) Lessee’s or Lessor’s failure, as the case may be, to timely execute and deliver such statement upon five (5) business additional days written notice from the requesting party advising the other party on the consequences of a non-response, shall constitute an acceptance and an acknowledgment by the other party that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception.

 

ARTICLE XVI

LESSOR’S LIABILITY

 

Section 16.01 Limitations on Lessor’s Liability.

 

The term “Lessor” as used herein shall mean only the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title of the Premises. In the event of any transfer of such title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers then the grantor) shall be relieved from and after the date of such transfer of all liability as respects Lessor’s obligations thereafter to be performed, provided that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer, in which Lessee has an interest, shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor’s successors and assigns, only during their respective periods of ownership. For any breach of this Lease by Lessor, the liability of Lessor (including all persons and entities that comprise Lessor, and any successor Lessor) and any recourse by Lessee against Lessor shall be limited to the interest of Lessor, and Lessor’s successors in interest, in and to the Project. On behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through, or under Lessee, Lessee expressly waives and releases Lessor and each member, agent and employee of Lessor from any personal liability for breach of this Lease.

 

ARTICLE XVII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Section 17.01 Severability.

 

The invalidity of any provision of this Lease as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof.

 

Section 17.02 Agreed Rate Interest on Past-Due Obligations.

 

Except as expressly herein provided, any amount due to either party not paid within five (5) days after such amount is due shall bear interest at the Bank of America prime rate plus two percent (2%) or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is lesser (“Agreed Rate”). Payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default by Lessee under this Lease. Despite any other provision of this Lease, the total liability for interest payments shall

 

37


not exceed the limits, if any, imposed by the usury laws of the State of California. Any interest paid in excess of those limits shall be refunded to the payor by application of the amount of excess interest paid against any sums outstanding in any order that payee requires. If the amount of excess interest paid exceeds the sums outstanding, the portion exceeding those sums shall be refunded in cash to the payor by the payee. To ascertain whether any interest payable exceeds the limits imposed, any nonprincipal payment (including late charges) shall be considered to the extent permitted by law to be an expense or a fee, premium, or penalty rather than interest.

 

Section 17.03 Time of Essence.

 

Time is of the essence in the performance of all obligations under this Lease.

 

Section 17.04 Additional Rent.

 

Any monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease shall be deemed to be Additional Rent and Lessor shall have all the rights and remedies for the nonpayment of same as it would have for nonpayment of Base Rent. All references to “rent” (except specific references to either Base Rent or Additional Rent) shall mean Base Rent and Additional Rent.

 

Section 17.05 Incorporation of Prior Agreements, Amendments and Exhibits.

 

This Lease (including Exhibits A, B, C, D, E and F and Schedules 1 and 2) contains all agreements of the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein. No prior agreement or understanding pertaining to any such matter shall be effective. This Lease may be modified in writing only, signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification. Except as otherwise stated in this Lease, Lessee hereby acknowledges that neither the Lessor nor any employees or agents of the Lessor has made any oral or written warranties or representations to Lessee relative to the condition or use by Lessee of said Premises and Lessee acknowledges that Lessee assumes all responsibility regarding the Occupational Safety Health Act, the legal use and adaptability of the Premises and the compliance thereof with all applicable laws and regulations in effect during the Lease Term except as otherwise specifically stated in this Lease. Neither party has been induced to enter into this Lease by, and neither party is relying on, any representation or warranty outside those expressly set forth in this Lease.

 

Section 17.06 Notices.

 

(a) Written Notice.

 

Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by a method described in paragraph (b) below and shall be addressed to Lessee or to Lessor at the addresses noted below, next to the signature of the respective parties, as the case may be. Either party may by notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes, provided that in no event shall Lessee be deemed in default pursuant to Section 12.01(b) hereof if such failure is caused by a change of Lessor’s mailing address and Lessor failed to notify Lessee of such change in address at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such payment of Base Rent is due hereunder. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as

 

38


Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate by notice to Lessee, but delay or failure of delivery to such person shall not affect the validity of the delivery to Lessor or Lessee.

When delivery by overnight delivery Federal Express/Airborne/United Parcel Service/DHL WorldWide Express with charges prepaid or charged to the sender’s account, notice is effective on delivery if delivery is confirmed by the delivery service.

 

(c) Refused, Unclaimed or Undeliverable Notices.

 

Any correctly addressed notice that is refused, unclaimed, or undeliverable because of an act or omission of the party to be notified shall be considered to be effective as of the first date that the notice was refused, unclaimed, or considered undeliverable by the postal authorities, messenger, or overnight delivery service.

 

Section 17.07 Waivers.

 

No waiver of any provision hereof shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions. Any consent to, or approval of, any act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of consent to or approval of any subsequent act. The acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent.

 

Section 17.08 Recording.

 

Lessee may not record a “short form” memorandum of this Lease.

39


Common Area caused by Lessee’s removal of its property, (ii) patch and refinish, to Lessor’s reasonable satisfaction, all penetrations made by Lessee or its agents, contractors, employees or invitees to the roof, floor, interior or exterior walls or ceiling of the Premises and Building, whether such penetrations were made with Lessor’s approval or not, (iii) repair or replace all stained or damaged ceiling tiles, wall coverings and floor coverings to the reasonable satisfaction of Lessor, (iv) repair all damage caused by Lessee to the exterior surface of Building and to the paved surfaces of the Common Areas and, where necessary, replace or resurface same. Upon expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Lessor may reenter the Premises and remove all persons and property therefrom. If Lessee shall fail to surrender to Lessor the Premises, Building and the Common Area in the condition required by this paragraph at the expiration or, if sooner terminated, within ten (10) days after sooner termination, of this Lease, Lessor may, at Lessee’s expense, remove Lessee’s signs, property and/or improvements not so removed and make such repairs and replacements not so made or hire, at Lessee’s expense, independent contractors to perform such work. Lessee shall be liable to Lessor for all costs incurred by Lessor in returning the Premises, Building and the Common Area to the required condition, together with interest thereon at the Agreed Rate from the date incurred by Lessor until paid. Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount of all costs so incurred (including, without limitation, costs of disposal, storage and insurance) together with interest at the Agreed Rate within five (5) business days from Lessor’s delivery of a statement therefor. If the Premises are not surrendered at the end of the Lease Term, Lessee shall indemnify Lessor against loss or liability resulting from delay by Lessee in so surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, actual damages for lost rent and with respect to any claims of a successor occupant (provided that such damages shall be reduced by the amount of any holdover rent paid by Lessee pursuant to Section 17.09 (b) below); provided, however, Lessor shall have first informed Lessee in writing that Lessor has entered into an agreement with such a successor occupant and the anticipated commencement date of such succeeding lease, provided that Lessor will have no liability to Lessee for Lessor’s failure to do so.

 

(b) If Lessee, with Lessor’s prior written consent, remains in possession of the Premises after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination of this Lease and if Lessor and Lessee have not executed an express written agreement as to such holding over, then such occupancy shall be a tenancy from month to month at a monthly Base Rent equivalent to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the greater of: (i) the monthly rental in effect immediately prior to such expiration or (ii) the Fair Market Rent, as determined by Lessor, such payments to be made as herein provided for Base Rent. In the event of such holding over, all of the terms of this Lease, including the payment of Additional Rent all charges owing hereunder other than rent shall remain in force and effect on said month to month basis.

 

Section 17.10 Cumulative Remedies.

 

No remedy or election hereunder by Lessor shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity, provided that notice and cure periods set forth in Article XII are intended to extend and modify statutory notice provisions to the extent expressly stated in Section 12.01.

 

40

Lessee shall execute any documents which are commercially reasonable (i.e., of a type customarily executed between lenders and lessees for similar loans and leases) subordinating this Lease within ten (10) business days after delivery of same by Lessor so long as the mortgagee or beneficiary agrees therein that this Lease will not be terminated if Lessee is not in default following a foreclosure. Lessee agrees to attorn to the holder of any such mortgage, deed of trust or other encumbrance upon their foreclosure of such interest without the requirement to execute any additional agreements, provided that Lessee agrees to execute any such agreement required by such lender in order to consummate such an attornment.

Section 17.16 Merger.

 

The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a mutual cancellation thereof, or a termination by Lessor, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subtenancies or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to Lessor of any or all of such subtenancies.

 

Section 17.17 Quiet Possession.

Lessee shall sign any of the aforementioned or other documents, and take such other actions, which are reasonably necessary or appropriate to accomplish such granting, recordation and subordination of the Lease to same, upon request of Lessor, and failure to do so within ten (10) business days after a written request to do so shall constitute a material breach of this Lease, provided that Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for Lessee’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses necessarily incurred in the performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Section 17.18

 

Section 17.19 Authority.

 

Each individual executing this Lease on behalf of a corporation, limited liability company or partnership represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of such entity in accordance with a duly adopted resolution of the governing group of the entity empowered to grant such authority, and that this Lease is binding upon said entity in accordance with its terms.

43


permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, kept or used in, on or about the Project by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors, licensee, guests, visitors or invitees without the prior written consent of Lessor. Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold such consent so long as Lessee demonstrates to Lessor’s reasonable satisfaction that such Hazardous Materials are necessary or useful to Lessee’s business and will be used, kept and stored in a manner that complies with all applicable Environmental Laws. Lessee shall, at all times, use, keep, store, handle, transport, treat or dispose all such Hazardous Materials in or about the Project in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws.

(d) Lessee’s Obligation to Promptly Remediate.

 

If the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Premises results from an act or omission of Lessee (or Lessee’s successors), its agents, employees, invitees, vendors, contractors, guests, or visitors results in contamination or deterioration of the Project or any water or soil beneath the Property, Lessee shall promptly take all action necessary or appropriate to investigate and remedy that contamination, at its sole cost and expense, provided that Lessor’s consent to such action shall first be obtained, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

(e) Notification.

 

Lessor and Lessee each agree to promptly notify the other of any communication received from any governmental entity concerning Hazardous Materials or the violation of Environmental Laws that relate to the Project.

 

Section 17.22 Modifications Required by Lessor’s Lender.

 

If any lender of Lessor requests a modification of this Lease that will not increase Lessee’s cost or expense or materially and adversely change Lessee’s rights and obligations hereunder, this Lease shall be so modified and Lessee shall execute whatever documents are required by such lender and deliver them to Lessor within ten (10) business days after the request. Nothing in this Section 17.22 shall require Lessee to execute any modifications of this Lease that would increase the Base Rent, Additional Rent or any other Rent due hereunder, create a Letter of Credit Security obligation, change the Lease Term, affect Lessee’s Options to Renew or Right of First Offer, increase or decrease the size of Premises or create any new indemnification obligations of Lessee.

 

44


Section 17.23 Brokers.

 

Lessor and Lessee each represents to the other that it has had no dealings with any real estate broker or agent in connection with the negotiation of this Lease, except for Cornish & Carey Commerical and CPS (“Brokers”) and that they know of no other real estate broker or agent who is entitled to a commission or finder’s fee in connection with this Lease. Each party shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the other party against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, lawsuits, judgments, and costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) for any leasing commission, finder’s fee, or equivalent compensation alleged to be owning on account of the indemnifying party’s dealings with any real estate broker or agent other than the Brokers. Lessor shall pay for the commissions due Brokers pursuant to a separate agreement. The terms of this Section 17.23 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.

 

Section 17.24 Right of First Offer.

 

(a) Grant.

 

Subject to the terms of this Section 17.24, Lessor grants to Lessee during the Right of First Offer Term a one-time only right of first offer (“Right of First Offer”) to lease any space which is available for lease in the building located at 410 North Mary Avenue in the Project (“Available Space”). For the purposes of this Section 17.24, such space shall not be deemed available for lease, and this Right of First Offer shall not apply, if the space in question is already leased to a tenant thereof who leases or re-leases such space pursuant to any then-existing or future right to extend the term of its lease or expand the size of its premises agreed upon by Lessor and such tenant.

 

(b) Term.

 

The term of the Right of First Offer (“Right of First Offer Term”) shall commence on the Commencement Date of this Lease and shall terminate on June 30, 2007.

 

(c) Covenants of Lessor.

 

Subject to the conditions precedent established by subsection (e) below, if at any time during the Right of First Offer Term Lessor decides to offer any Available Space for lease to a bona fide third party, Lessor shall first provide Lessee with a written notice (“Offer Notice”) detailing (a) the rent at which said Available Space is being offered to the third party, (b) the rentable square footage and location thereof, (c) the date the Available Space will become available and (d) all other terms upon which Lessor proposes to lease the Available Space to Lessee.

 

(d) Exercise of Lessee’s Right of First Offer.

 

Subject to the conditions precedent established by subsection (e) below, Lessee may exercise Lessee’s Right of First Offer to lease all (but not less than all) of the Available Space described in the Offer Notice by providing Lessor with written notice (“Acceptance Notice”) thereof within five (5) business days of Lessor’s delivery to Lessee of the Offer Notice.

 

45


If Lessee does not exercise its Right of First Offer within said five (5) business day period, Lessor shall be relieved of Lessor’s obligation to lease the Available Space mentioned in the Offer Notice to Lessee and the provisions of this Section 17.24 shall not apply to Lessor, except if Lessor, within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Offer Notice, offers the Available Space for the same time period specified in the Offer Notice at a base rent which is less than ninety percent (90%) of the base rent specified in the Offer Notice, Lessor shall first re-offer such space to Lessee with those new terms and Lessee shall have the right to exercise such new Offer Notice within the time period set forth in this Section 17.24(d).

 

(e) Conditions to Right of First Offer.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 17.24, Lessor shall have no obligation to provide Lessee with an Offer Notice, and Lessee shall have no right to exercise Lessee’s Right of First Offer, if: (i) Lessee is in default either: (a) at the time Lessor seeks to lease the Available Space in question, or at the time Lessee seeks to give Lessor an Acceptance Notice, whichever, is relevant, or (b) upon the date Lessee seeks to take possession of the Available Space referenced in the Offer Notice, (ii) Lessee has assigned this Lease sublet more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable space located in the Premises to a party other than an Affiliate, (iii) Lessee then occupies less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Premises or (iv) Lessee has received more than three (3) notices of default from Lessor during the Term of this Lease. Lessee’s Right of First Offer shall be personal to Lessee and Lessee’s Affiliate and shall not be transferable with any assignment of this Lease or subletting of the Premises.

 

(f) Terms for Right of First Offer.

 

In the event that Lessee exercises Lessee’s Right of First Offer, Lessee’s occupancy of the Available Space taken shall be on all of the same terms and conditions described in the Offer Notice, except that the Base Rent due for the Available Space taken shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Rent (as defined in Section 3.02(b) hereunder) for such Available Space. In such event, Lessee’s Share due hereunder shall also be adjusted accordingly.

 

(g) Amendment to Lease.

 

Lessor and Lessee hereby agree to execute an amendment to this Lease (“Lease Amendment”) prior to Lessee’s occupancy of the Available Space in question. The Lease Amendment shall specify, among other things, the Rent, date of occupancy, increase in Lessee’s Share and square footage of the Available Space taken in connection with Lessee’s exercise of Lessee’s Right of First Offer. If Lessee does not execute such a Lease Amendment within fifteen (15) business days after the date on which it provides Lessor with the Acceptance Notice, then, at Lessor’s option, Lessee’s rights hereunder shall be void and terminated, but, otherwise, a valid exercise of Lessee’s Right of First Offer shall be fully effective, whether or not such amendment is executed.

 

Section 17.25 Telecommunications Equipment.

 

Lessee may install, or cause a carrier, vendor or other operator selected by Lessee and acceptable to Lessor to install, maintain and operate microwave dishes no greater than 6 feet

 

46


in diameter and such other equipment as listed on Exhibit “F” attached hereto (collectively, the “Telecommunications Equipment”) on a site (the “Site”) located on the roof of the Building with Lessor’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

(a) Conditions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lessor may condition its consent on (1) Lessor’s approval or designation of the pathway for any line, cable, wire or conduit; and (2) the installation by Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, of a structural platform and/or access walkway to protect the roof from damage from the placement of and access to the Telecommunications Equipment installed on the roof. Any installation, maintenance, operation, alteration, repair or replacement of Telecommunications Equipment by or for Lessee shall be subject to all of the requirements and provisions of this Lease, including the terms and conditions of Section 6.03 Alterations. Lessor may also require that any such work, including work on or involving the roof (and including, without limitation, any roof penetrations approved by Lessor), be performed, at Lessee’s cost, by a contactor designated or approved by Lessor. In addition, if Lessor determines that the riser or telecommunications closet space in the Building is inadequate to accommodate any Telecommunications Equipment proposed by Lessee along with the existing and/or future needs of other occupants and users of the Building, Lessor may condition Lessor’s approval of Lessee’s Telecommunications Equipment on the construction of additional riser or telecommunications closet space as designated by Lessor at Lessee’s expense. Lessor may require that Lessee, or the carrier or operator, as applicable, enter into a telecommunications access agreement on Lessor’s standard form prior to any installation of Telecommunications Equipment.

 

(b) Government Approvals. If Lessee installs any Telecommunications Equipment, Lessee shall do so at its sole cost and expense, and Lessee shall obtain, at its sole cost and expense, any and all permits, authorizations and certificates, including, without limitation, zoning variances or changes, as may be required with respect to such Telecommunications Equipment from all governmental agencies. Lessor agrees to reasonably cooperate with Lessee to obtain same if required by applicable governmental agencies; provided, however, that Lessor shall not be obligated to incur any costs or accept the imposition of any zoning change or use restrictions affecting the Building or Buildings.

 

(c) Noninterference. Telecommunications Equipment installed or operated by or for Lessee shall not interfere with the operations (including, without limitation, transmissions or reception) of any other Telecommunications Equipment located in the Building or buildings

 

(d) Indemnity. Lessee shall repair any damage caused by Lessee’s installation, maintenance, operation, alteration, repair or replacement of Telecommunications Equipment, and shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold Lessor harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, damages or expenses (collectively, the “Claims”) associated therewith, including, without limitation: (i) any Claims by other lessees of The Building or Buildings or other third parties that Lessee’s installation, maintenance, operation, alteration, repair or replacement of Telecommunications Equipment has caused interference or interruption with the operation of other Telecommunications Equipment; and (2) any voiding of or other effect that Lessee’s installation, maintenance, operation, alteration, repair or replacement of Telecommunications Equipment may have on any warranty with respect to the roof or other portions of the Building or Buildings. Lessor shall not be liable for any damage to or

 

47


interference with Lessee’s business or any loss of income from Lessee’s business, or for loss of or damage to Lessee’s Telecommunications Equipment caused by or resulting from any damage to or interference with, or operation of Lessee’s Telecommunications Equipment, including, without limitation, maintenance, operation, alteration, repair or replacement of other Telecommunications Equipment in the Building or Buildings, whether by or for Lessor, other lessees of the Building or Buildings, or other third parties, and Lessee waives all Claims against Lessor for the same, except that Lessor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold Lessee harmless from all Claims (but in no event lost profits or other consequential damages) to the extent arising out of or in connection with the gross negligence or willful acts of Lessor or its agents, employees, or representatives. Lessor’s approval of Lessee’s installation of any Telecommunications Equipment shall not constitute a representation that any Telecommunications Equipment will function effectively in or on the Building or the Buildings.

Each tenant of a single tenant Building will be permitted (subject to compliance with Section 17.15 of the Lease) to place one sign on the existing monument signs located near the entrance to the Project to be located near the entrance to the parking lot associated with the Building (“Monument”). The exact size, design, color, location and materials of the Monument, and of the Lessee’s sign on the Monument, will be determined by Lessor in its sole and absolute discretion, provided that Lessor will not unreasonably withhold its consent to a tenant sign which employs a design and color commonly used by such tenant for marketing purposes so long as it fits within the space allocated by Lessor, and so long as it is in keeping with the overall design scheme of the Project. Each such tenant will also be permitted (subject to compliance with Section 17.15 of the Lease) to place one sign on the exterior surface of the Building. Lessor reserves the right to allow different or additional signage anywhere in the Project, provided that, so long as Lessor may lawfully do so, Lessor will not reduce the size of space allocated on the Monument to a size smaller than that permitted as of the commencement date of the Lease, unless the size of the premises subject to the lease decreases from its size as of the lease commencement date or unless Lessor provides alternate signage of reasonably equivalent visibility. All signs shall comply with all applicable government laws and regulations.

If Lessor makes any objections to the Final Working Drawings, and provided such objections are reasonable, Lessee shall revise the Final Working Drawings and cause such objections to be remedied in the revised Final Working Drawings. Within two (2) business days after Lessor receives the revised Final Working Drawings, Lessor shall approve or reasonably disapprove such revised Final Working Drawings. This procedure shall be repeated until the Final Working Drawings is finally approved by Lessor and written approval has been delivered to and received by Lessee. Lessor’s failure to advise timely shall be deemed approval.

 

3.4 Approved Working Drawings. The Final Working Drawings shall be approved by Lessor (the “Approved Working Drawings”) prior to the commencement of construction of the Lessee Improvements by Lessee. After approval by Lessor of the Final Working Drawings, Lessee shall submit the same to the City of Sunnyvale for all applicable building permits. Lessee hereby agrees that neither Lessor nor Lessor’s consultants shall be responsible for obtaining any building permit or certificate of occupancy for the Premises and that obtaining the same shall be Lessee’s responsibility; provided, however, that Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in a timely manner in executing permit applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary to enable Lessee to obtain any such permit or certificate of occupancy.

Such indemnity by Lessee, as set forth in Section 7.07(a) of the Lease, shall also apply with respect to any and all costs, losses, damages, injuries and liabilities related in any way to Lessor’s performance of any ministerial acts reasonably necessary (i) to permit Lessee to complete the Lessee Improvements, and (ii) to enable Lessee to obtain any building permit or certificate of occupancy for the Premises.

 

4.2.2.3 Requirements of Lessee’s Agents.

connection with such removal or replacement of all or any part of the Lessee Improvements, and/or Building, and/or Furniture and/or Common Areas that may be damaged or disturbed thereby. All such warranties or guarantees as to materials or workmanship of or with respect to the Lessee Improvements shall be contained in the contract or subcontract and shall be written such that such guarantees or warranties shall inure to the benefit of both Lessor and Lessee, as their respective interests may appear, and can be directly enforced by either. Lessee covenants to give to Lessor any assignment or other assurances which may be necessary to effect such right of direct enforcement.

 

4.2.2.4 Insurance Requirements.

 

4.2.2.4.1 General Coverages.

4.2.2.4.2 Special Coverages. Lessee shall carry “Builder’s All Risk” insurance in an amount approved by Lessor covering the construction of the Lessee Improvements, and such other insurance as Lessor may require, it being understood and agreed that the Lessee Improvements shall be insured by Lessee pursuant to Section 7.02 of the Lease immediately upon completion thereof. Such insurance shall be in amounts and shall include such extended coverage endorsements as may be reasonably required by Lessor including, but not limited to, the requirement that all of Lessee’s Agents shall carry excess liability and Products and Completed Operation Coverage insurance, each in amounts not less than $1,000,000 per incident, $2,000,000 in aggregate, and in form and with companies as are required to be carried by Lessee as set forth in Section 7.05 of the Lease.

In the event that the Lessee Improvements are damaged by any cause during the course of the construction thereof, Lessee shall immediately repair the same at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. Lessee’s Agents shall maintain all of the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the Lessee Improvements are fully completed and accepted by Lessor. All policies carried under this Section 4.2.2.4 shall insure Lessor and Lessee, as their interests may appear, as well as Contractor and Lessee’s Agents. All insurance, except Workers’ Compensation, maintained by Lessee’s Agents shall preclude subrogation claims by the insurer against anyone insured thereunder. Such insurance shall provide that it is primary insurance as respects the Lessor and that any other insurance maintained by Lessor is excess and noncontributing with the insurance required hereunder.

4.2.4 Inspection by Lessor. Lessor shall have the right to inspect the Lessee Improvements at all reasonable times, provided however, that Lessor’s failure to inspect the Lessee Improvements shall in no event constitute a waiver of any of Lessor’s rights hereunder nor shall Lessor’s inspection of the Lessee Improvements constitute Lessor’s approval of the same. Should Lessor reasonably disapprove any portion of the Lessee Improvements, Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing of such disapproval and shall specify the items disapproved. Any defects or deviations in, and/or disapproval by Lessor of, the Lessee Improvements shall be rectified by Lessee at no expense to Lessor, provided however, that in the event Lessor determines that a defect or deviation exists or disapproves of any matter in connection with any portion of the Lessee Improvements and such defect, deviation or matter might adversely affect the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating and air-conditioning or life-safety systems of the Building, the structure or exterior appearance of the Building or any other Lessee’s use of such other Lessee’s leased premises, Lessor may take such action as Lessor deems reasonably necessary, at Lessee’s expense and without incurring any liability on Lessor’s part, to correct any such defect, deviation and/or matter, including, without limitation, causing the cessation of performance of the construction of the Lessee Improvements until such time as the defect, deviation and/or matter is corrected to Lessor’s satisfaction.

If Lessee fails to do so, Lessor may execute and file the same on behalf of Lessee as Lessee’s agent for such purpose, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. At the conclusion of construction, (i) Lessee shall cause the Architect and Contractor (A) to update the Approved Working Drawings as necessary to reflect all changes made to the Approved Working Drawings during the course of construction, (B) to certify to the best of their knowledge that the “record-set” of mylar “as-built” drawings are true and correct, which certification shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease, and (C) deliver to Lessor two (2) printed sets and one (1) electronic set in CAD format on CD of such record drawings within sixty (60) days following issuance of a final permit accepting the work of Lessee Improvements or similar final sign-off, and (ii) Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a copy of all warranties, guaranties, and operating manuals and information relating to the improvements, equipment, and systems in the Premises.
