The Letter of Credit shall permit partial draws, and provide that draws thereunder will be honored upon presentation by Landlord. The Letter of Credit shall have an expiration period of one (1) year but shall automatically renew by its terms unless affirmatively cancelled by either Issuer or Tenant, in which case Issuer must provide Landlord 30 days' prior written notice of such expiration or cancellation. If the Letter of Credit in effect during the final year of the Lease Term does not by its terms remain in effect until six (6) months after the Lease Expiration Date, Landlord may draw such Letter of Credit at any time during the thirty (30) days prior to the Lease Expiration date and hold and/or use such drawn proceeds for a period of ninety days following a surrender of the Leased Premises by Tenant. Any amount drawn under the Letter of Credit shall be held or used by Landlord in accordance with this Paragraph 3.7. If the Tenant fails to renew or replace the Letter of Credit as required under this Lease at least thirty (30) days before its stated expiration date, Landlord may draw upon the entire amount of the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall be assignable to Landlord's lender. No fees applicable to the Letter of Credit shall be charged to Landlord.
- On the condition that Tenant timely performs its obligations secured by the Letter of Credit constituting the Construction Security (the "Construction L/C"), Landlord shall pay the initial one percent fee charged by the Issuer for establishment of the Construction L/C, and shall pay such fee annually during the period such Construction L/C is maintained; provided, however, that if Landlord becomes entitled to draw on such Construction L/C at any time, then the total amount of all such fees theretofore or thereafter paid by Landlord shall be promptly reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

All glass within or a part of the Leased Premises, both interior and exterior, is at the sole risk of Tenant and any broken glass shall promptly be replaced by Tenant at Tenant's expense with glass of the same kind, size and quality. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, due to normal wear and tear Tenant would be required by this Paragraph 5.1(a) to make a repair or replacement to the Building Shells or the Landlord's Improvements (as defined in Schedule 1) that would be considered a "capital improvement" as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, Landlord shall make such repair or replacement and charge to Tenant, as Additional Rent, the cost thereof (provided that the cost of such repair or replacement shall be amortized over its useful life and only the amortizing portion of such cost shall be included in Additional Rent on a monthly basis). Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 4.11 and 5.1(b) and Articles 10 and 11, Landlord shall have no obligation to make any repair or replacement in accordance with the foregoing sentence to the extent such repair or replacement is required as a result of Tenant's negligence, misuse or overuse of the Leased Premises or Property.

- Each policy of liability insurance required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this paragraph or actually carried by Tenant with respect to the Leased Premises or the Property: (i) shall, except with respect to insurance required by subparagraph (a)(ii) and (vii) above, name Landlord, and such others as are designated by Landlord, as additional insureds; (ii) shall be primary insurance providing that the insurer shall be liable for the full amount of the loss, up to and including the total amount of liability set forth in the declaration of coverage, without the right of contribution from or prior payment by any other insurance coverage of Landlord; (iii) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord; (iv) shall be carried with companies reasonably acceptable to Landlord with Best's ratings of at least A and XI; (v) shall provide that such policy shall not be subject to cancellation, lapse or change except after at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord, and (vi) shall contain a so-called "severability" or "cross liability" endorsement.

With respect to each renewal or replacement of any such insurance, the requirements of this Paragraph must be complied with not less than thirty days prior to the expiration or cancellation of the policies being renewed or replaced. Landlord may, at any time and from time to time, inspect and/or copy any and all insurance policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to this Article. If Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or counsel reasonably determines at any time that the amount of coverage set forth in Paragraph 9.1(a) for any policy of insurance Tenant is required to carry pursuant to this Article is not adequate, then Tenant shall increase the amount of coverage for such insurance to such greater amount as Landlord's Lender, insurance broker, advisor or counsel reasonably deems adequate, provided such insurance is customarily maintained or required for projects similar to the Leased Premises.

- Private Restrictions . The term "Private Restrictions" shall mean (as they may exist from time to time) any and all covenants, conditions and restrictions, private agreements, easements, and any other recorded documents or instruments affecting the use of the Property, the Buildings, the Leased Premises, or the Outside Areas.
- Rent . The term "Rent" shall mean collectively Base Monthly Rent and all Additional Rent.
- Landlord has advised Tenant that the approval of the development and construction of the Buildings and improvement of the balance of the Property (collectively, the "Project") by the City is or will be conditioned upon, among other things, Landlord's development and implementation of a Transportation Demand Management Plan (the "TDMP") pursuant to which Landlord is required to undertake various measures to try to reduce the volume of traffic generated by the Project. Landlord shall be responsible for obtaining the initial permit for and approval of the TDMP from the City. Tenant shall be responsible for compliance with all aspects of the TDMP so approved and the costs arising therefrom, including but not limited to (i) designating one of its employees to act as a liaison with Landlord in facilitating and coordinating such programs as may be required from time to time by governmental agencies and/or by the terms of the TDMP to reduce the traffic generated by the Project (as required by the City as part of the conditions of approval of this project) and to facilitate and encourage the use of public transportation, (ii) making reasonable efforts to encourage cooperation and participation by Tenant's employees in the programs implemented from time to time pursuant to the TDMP, including (but not limited to) programs described in this Paragraph 13.15, and (iii) cooperating with Landlord in identifying an appropriate area within the Buildings where an information kiosk can be maintained for the dissemination of transportation-related information, to be updated from time to time by Landlord's designated transportation coordinator.
- Tenant also acknowledges that Landlord has informed Tenant that: (1) In order to be consistent with the TDMP, it is expected that a specified percentage (presently anticipated to be ten percent (10%) of Project parking spaces will be designated for carpool, vanpool and clean fuel vehicles. Among other things, the City may or will require that Landlord charge a monthly parking fee for each parking space allocated to tenants and their employees. (2) The monthly fee per parking space is not yet known by Landlord, but monthly fee per parking space in another recently approved project in the City (the "Brittannia Oyster Point Project") was $20 per parking space for each of the first five (5) years after the applicable rent commencement date, $30 per parking space for years six (6) through ten (10) after the applicable rent commencement date, and $40 per parking space for years eleven (11) through fifteen (15) after the applicable rent commencement date. (3) The policies and requirements of the City may require or suggest that Tenant pass through these parking charges to Tenant's employees using the spaces.
- On or about the date Tenant commences business in the Building, Landlord intends to provide Tenant with an appropriate number of packets of employee transportation information, presently expected to include (but not be limited to) information about carpool parking; schedules and maps for SamTrans, Caltrain, BART and shuttle services operating to and from the Property; and a bicycle map. Landlord shall thereafter provide updated copies of the employee transportation information packet to Tenant from time to time, as appropriate, and shall make additional copies of the packet available to Tenant from time to time, upon request by Tenant, for new employees. Tenant shall distribute copies of the employee transportation information packet to all employees commuting to the Property at the time Tenant commences business in the Building, shall thereafter distribute copies of the packet to new employees from time to time, and shall distribute updated packets to all employees from time to time when and as such updated packets are furnished to Tenant by Landlord.
- Landlord expects to be required to conduct, pursuant to the TDMP, annual surveys of its tenants and their employees regarding both quantitative and qualitative aspects of commuting and transportation patterns at the Project. Landlord anticipates that these surveys will be prepared, administered and analyzed by an independent transportation consultant retained by the City, and will be summarized by that consultant in an annual report to be submitted by that consultant to the City and the City of South San Francisco Redevelopment Agency (the "Redevelopment Agency") with respect to the Project. Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord, and use reasonable efforts to cause Tenant's employees to cooperate, in the completion and return of such surveys from time to time, when and as requested by Landlord. Tenant acknowledges and understands that employees who fail to respond to such surveys may be counted as drive-alone commuters under the TDMP provisions.
- Landlord has advised Tenant that: (1) Pursuant to conditions imposed or expected to be imposed by the City and the Redevelopment Agency, Landlord may incur financial penalties if implementation of the TDMP at the Project fails to achieve a target rate of at least some minimum percentage (thirty-five percent (35%) at the Britannia Oyster Point Project) alternative mode transportation usage (the "Alternative Mode Standard") by employees working at the Project, as reflected in the surveys conducted pursuant to Paragraph 13.15(d) above. (2) Any such financial penalties shall be imposed by the Redevelopment Agency, in its sole discretion, based on its review of the annual reports submitted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 13.15(d) above. (3) The amount of such financial penalties for the Britannia Oyster Point Project were set at $15,000 per year for each percentage point (if any) by which, after a phase-in period (two (2) years after the granting of a certificate of occupancy) for each building, the aggregate rate of alternative mode transportation usage by employees throughout the Britannia Oyster Point Project falls short of the Alternative Mode Standard. If any such financial penalties are imposed on Landlord for failure to meet the Alternative Mode Standard on a Project-wide basis for any applicable survey period, then Landlord shall be entitled to pass such financial penalties through to all tenants of the Project whose employees have failed to demonstrate (pursuant to the applicable surveys) compliance with the Alternative Mode Standard for the applicable period (each such tenant being hereinafter referred to as a "Noncomplying Tenant" for that period), in which event the actual penalty amount shall be allocated among the Noncomplying Tenants for the applicable period in the following manner: Each Noncomplying Tenant shall be liable for a portion of the applicable penalty amount equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of employees by which such Noncomplying Tenant fell short of meeting the Alternative Mode Standard for the applicable period and the denominator of which is the sum of the respective numbers of employees by which all Noncomplying Tenants, in the aggregate, fell short of meeting the Alternative Mode Standard for the applicable period. Each such Noncomplying Tenant shall pay its share of the applicable penalty amount to Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of written demand from Landlord, accompanied by supporting documentation evidencing the applicable penalty amount, as provided by the Redevelopment Agency or its consultant, and demonstrating in reasonable detail the calculation of such Noncomplying Tenant's share of that penalty amount. Under no circumstances shall Tenant be required to bear any portion of any penalties contemplated in this paragraph with respect to any period as to which Tenant can demonstrate that its employees, as evidenced by the applicable survey(s) for that period, met the Alternative Mode Standard. If Tenant subleases any portion(s) of the Buildings from time to time, then for purposes of this Paragraph 13.15, as between Tenant and Landlord, Tenant shall be fully and solely responsible for compliance by its subtenant(s) and their employees with the requirements of this Paragraph 13.15, and all surveys and reports submitted by Tenant to Landlord and/or to the independent consultant pursuant to this Paragraph 13.15 shall cover the entirety of the Buildings and shall report figures for Tenant and its subtenant(s) on an aggregate basis. Nothing in the preceding sentence, however, shall preclude Tenant, as between itself and its subtenant(s), from allocating to such subtenant(s) in the applicable sublease agreement any compliance obligations and/or penalty reimbursement obligations under this Paragraph 13.15(e), but no such allocation shall be binding on Landlord or require Landlord to deal directly with any such subtenant(s) regarding the matters addressed in this Paragraph 13.15. If Tenant believes, reasonably and in good faith, that there are circumstances particular to the nature of Tenant's business operations that would justify a mitigation of penalties and/or a modification of the implementation of the TDMP as applied to Tenant's business, and requests in writing (with supporting information describing, in reasonable detail, the circumstances on which Tenant is relying) that Landlord present such mitigation or modification arguments to the Redevelopment Agency, or it Tenant has other good reason to challenge the imposition of any cost or penalty which Tenant would bear with respect to the TDMP, then Landlord shall forward such arguments to the Redevelopment Agency, but Tenant acknowledges and understands that any decision with respect to such mitigation and/or modification arguments will be in the sole discretion of the Redevelopment Agency and agrees that Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant if such mitigation and/or modification arguments or other contest are not accepted by the Redevelopment Agency provided however, that Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant (at Tenant's cost) in contesting any cost or penalty.

The arbitrator shall be qualified as a real estate broker with no less than 7 years experience leasing of similar industrial, research and development, or office space in Northern San Mateo County. Failure on the part of Tenant to make a proper demand in a timely manner for such arbitration shall constitute a waiver of the right thereto. Within fifteen (15) days after the service of the demand for arbitration, Landlord shall give notice to Tenant, specifying the name and address of the person designated by Landlord to act as arbitrator on its behalf who shall be similarly qualified. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant of the appointment of its arbitrator, within or by the time above specified, then the arbitrator appointed by Tenant shall be the arbitrator to determine the issue.

If the two arbitrators shall be unable to agree upon a determination of Fair Market Rent within such 15-day period, they, themselves, shall appoint a third arbitrator, who shall be a competent and impartial person with qualifications similar to those required of the first two arbitrators pursuant to Paragraph 15.4(a). In the event they are unable to agree upon such appointment within seven days after expiration of such 15-day period, the third arbitrator shall be selected by the parties themselves, if they can agree thereon, within a further period of fifteen (15) days. If the parties do not so agree, then either party, on behalf of both, may request appointment of such a qualified person by the then Presiding Judge of the California Superior Court having jurisdiction over the County of San Mateo, acting in his private and not in his official capacity, and the other party shall not raise any question as to such Judge's full power and jurisdiction to entertain the application for and make the appointment. The three arbitrators shall decide the dispute if it has not previously been resolved by following the procedure set forth below.
- Where an issue cannot be resolved by agreement between the two arbitrators selected by Landlord and Tenant or settlement between the parties during the course of arbitration, the issue shall be resolved by the three arbitrators within 15 days of the appointment of the third arbitrator in accordance with the following procedure. The arbitrator selected by each of the parties shall state in writing his determination of the Fair Market Rent supported by the reasons therefor with counterpart copies to each party. The arbitrators shall arrange for a simultaneous exchange of such proposed resolutions. The role of the third arbitrator shall be to select which of the two proposed resolutions most closely approximates his determination of Fair Market Rent. The third arbitrator shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any modification of either of the two proposed resolutions. The resolution he chooses as most closely approximating his determination shall constitute the decision of the arbitrators and be final and binding upon the parties.
- In the event of a failure, refusal or inability of any arbitrator to act, his successor shall be appointed by him, but in the case of the third arbitrator, his successor shall be appointed in the same manner as provided for appointment of the third arbitrator. The arbitrators shall decide the issue within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the third arbitrator. Any decision in which the arbitrator appointed by Landlord and the arbitrator appointed by Tenant concur shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties. Each party shall pay the fee and expenses of its respective arbitrator and both shall share the fee and expenses of the third arbitrator, if any, and the attorneys' fees and expenses of counsel for the respective parties and of witnesses shall be paid by the respective party engaging such counsel or calling such witnesses.
- The arbitrators shall have the right to consult experts and competent authorities to obtain factual information or evidence pertaining to a determination of Fair Market Rent, but any such consultation shall be made in the presence of both parties with full right on their part to cross-examine. The arbitrators shall render their decision and award in writing with counterpart copies to each party. The arbitrators shall have no power to modify the provisions of this Lease.

THIS WORK LETTER ("Work Letter") sets forth the agreement of Landlord and Tenant with respect to the Tenant Improvements and Landlord's Work to be constructed on the Property. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Work Letter and the terms of the Lease, the terms of the Lease shall control. All defined terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Lease, unless otherwise defined in this Work Letter.
- Landlord's Work. Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall perform or cause to be performed the "Landlord's Work," defined herein to mean demolition of the Existing Building and construction of two (2) concrete tilt-up building shells substantially in accordance with final plans and specifications to be submitted to and approved by the Tenant pursuant to Section 1(b) below and by the City (once so approved, the "Final Shell Plans"), which building shells shall contain only the items listed on Exhibit B-2 or shown on the Final Shell Plans (the "Building Shells"). Landlord's Work shall upon completion be in compliance with all then-applicable Laws and Private Restrictions (except to the extent noncompliance is the result of Tenant- requested changes in the Preliminary or Final Shell Plans). Landlord's Work shall be performed using a general contractor selected by Landlord from the contractors listed Exhibit B-1; provided that Landlord may use contractors other than those on Exhibit B-1 subject to Tenant's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
- Landlord shall cause WHL Architects ("Architect") to prepare initial plans for construction of the Building Shells based on the shell specifications attached as Exhibit B-2 and the site plans attached as Exhibit B-3 (the "Preliminary Shell Plans"). The Preliminary Shell Plans shall provide for accommodation of Tenant's sewer line in the Buildings' slabs and may incorporate either of the site plans attached at Exhibit B-3 or be a combination thereof, as reasonably approved by Landlord and Tenant as set forth below, provided that in no event shall the design of the Project provide for a lobby larger than 6,000 square feet or for a number of parking spaces less than 3 spaces per 1,000 (in Landlord's discretion, provided that in no event shall the parking be less than 2.75 per 1,000) Rentable Square Feet (excluding the Rentable Square Feet of the lobby). Landlord shall submit the Preliminary Shell Plans to Tenant for Tenant's approval. Tenant will provide written approval of the Preliminary Shell Plans within five (5) days after such submission. If Tenant disapproves any part of the Preliminary Shell Plans, the disapproval shall include written instructions adequate for Architect to revise the Preliminary Shell Plans. Such revisions shall be subject to Landlord's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided that neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be entitled to request or require changes to the Preliminary Shell Plans to the extent inconsistent with Exhibits B-2 and B- 3. Tenant will finally approve the revised Preliminary Shell Plans within two (2) business days after submission thereof to Tenant. If Tenant fails to approve the Preliminary Shell Plans within the applicable periods set forth in herein, then (A) Landlord shall not be obligated to commence construction of the Building Shells, (B) Tenant shall be responsible for any resulting delay, and the cost of such delay, in Landlord's completion of the Building Shells and delivery of the Leased Premises, and (C) any such delay shall be deemed a Tenant Delay (as defined below). After Tenant's approval of the Preliminary Shells Plans, such plans shall be submitted to the City for approval.
- After approval by the City of the Preliminary Shell Plans, Landlord shall cause Architect to prepare Final Shell Plans. Tenant will provide written approval of the Final Shell Plans within five (5) days after such submission. If Tenant disapproves any part of the Final Shell Plans, the disapproval shall include written instructions adequate for Architect to revise the Final Shell Plans. Such revisions shall be subject to Landlord's approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant will finally approve the revised Final Shell Plans within two (2) business days after submission thereof to Tenant. If Tenant fails to approve the Final Shell Plans within the applicable periods set forth in herein, then (A) Landlord shall not be obligated to commence construction of the Building Shells, (B) Tenant shall be responsible for any resulting delay, and the cost of such delay, in Landlord's completion of the Building Shells and delivery of the Leased Premises, and (C) any such delay shall be deemed a Tenant Delay (as defined below).
- Landlord's Work shall be deemed to have been "Substantially Completed" or to have attained "Substantial Completion" as and when hereinafter set forth in this subparagraph 1(c).
- When Landlord receives written certification from Architect that construction of the foundation, structural slab on grade (except to the extent delayed by Tenant's action or inaction, including at Tenant's request to accommodate Tenant's design requirements and/or any underslab aspects of the Tenant Improvements), Landlord's underslab plumbing work, structural steel framework, decking and concrete on second floor, roof structure and installation of main fire sprinkler risers in the Buildings and all other work shown on the Final Plans (other than the Late Delivery Items and punchlist items) have been completed in accordance with the Final Shell Plans approved by the City and the parties, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a certificate signed by both Landlord and Architect (the "Structural Completion Certificate") certifying that the construction of such portions of the Buildings have been substantially completed in accordance with the Final Shell Plans in all material respects and specifying the date of that completion. To the extent reasonably available from the City, Landlord shall include reasonable evidence that the City has signed off on the items of Landlord's Work. The delivery of such Structural Completion Certificate (and evidence from the City, if any) shall memorialize the date that the Landlord's Work was "Substantially Completed," subject to concurrence by Tenant's architect, which concurrence shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be given (or reasonably withheld) within five (5) business days after receipt of the Structural Completion Certificate. Within five (5) business after Landlord's delivery of the Structural Completion Certificate, Landlord and Tenant (and/or their representatives) shall conduct a walkthrough of the Building Shells using diligence to specify any items remaining incomplete (pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter) or in need of repair. Landlord and Tenant within said five (5) business day period after their inspection shall prepare a "punchlist" of any items remaining incomplete (pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter) or in need of repair, and Landlord shall cause such items to be completed or corrected at its sole cost and expense within a reasonable time thereafter. Promptly after Landlord provides Tenant with the Final Completion Certificate, Landlord shall cause the recordation of a Notice of Completion (as defined in Section 3093 of the California Civil Code) with respect to Landlord's Work. The term "Substantially Completed" shall not include the parking areas or landscaping of the Property (the "Late Delivery Items") or punchlist items. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Late Delivery Items shall be completed by Landlord no later than the date which is the later to occur of (A) the date Tenant actually occupies the Leased Premises for the conduct of its business or (B) June 30, 2003.

SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT
NOTICE: THIS SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT AND NON- DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR LEASEHOLD INTEREST BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE LIEN OF SOME OTHER OR LATER SECURITY INSTRUMENT.
THIS SUBORDINATION, ATTORNMENT AND NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENT ("Agreement"), dated as of March 3, 2001, between MID- PENINSULA BANK ("Beneficiary"), Drawbridge/Forbes, LLC, a California limited liability company ("Owner") and Cell Genesys, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Tenant"), is as follows:
Owner and Tenant have entered into that certain Lease dated March 3, 2001, together with any amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions thereof ("Lease") pursuant to which Owner leased to Tenant and Tenant leased from Owner the premises more particularly described in the Lease ("Premises") and located on the real property described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto (the "Secured Property"). Owner has obtained financing for the Secured Property and has executed a promissory note in the principal amount of Nine Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($9,250,000) ("Note") in favor of Beneficiary, payment of which is secured by a Deed of Trust ("Deed of Trust") encumbering the Secured Property and an Assignment of Real Property Leases and Rents.
In order to induce Beneficiary to make the above- described loan to Owner and to establish certain safeguards and priorities with respect to their respective rights in connection with the Premises, Beneficiary has requested that Owner obtain certain warranties and agreements from Tenant as hereinafter set forth. In consideration of the mutual benefits accruing to the parties hereto, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Subordination. The Lease is and at all times shall continue to be subject and subordinate to the Note and the lien of the Deed of Trust and to all advances made or to be made thereunder, and to any renewals, extensions, modifications or replacements thereof, unless Beneficiary has filed a notice subordinating the lien of its Deed of Trust to the Lease. Beneficiary specifically reserves the right to file such a notice at its sole election. Tenant shall not subordinate the Lease to any lien, claim, mortgage, deed of trust, or other encumbrance of any kind, except as provided in this paragraph, and any such other subordination shall be deemed a default under the Lease and this Agreement. Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Beneficiary or to any party to whom Tenant hereby agrees to attorn, in form and substance satisfactory to such party, such other instrument as either shall request in order to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement.
2. Limitation on Liability. Nothing herein contained shall impose any obligation upon Beneficiary to perform any of the obligations of Owner under the Lease unless and until Beneficiary shall become an owner or mortgagee in possession of the Premises, and Beneficiary shall have no personal liability to Tenant beyond Beneficiary's interest in the Secured Property.
3. Attornment. In the event of a foreclosure or other acquisition of the Premises (including, without limitation, by deed in lieu of foreclosure), the Lease shall be recognized as a direct lease from the Beneficiary, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, or any such subsequent owner (collectively referred to as "Purchaser"), except Purchaser shall not be (i) liable for any previous act or omission of Owner under the Lease; (ii) subject to any offset which shall theretofore have accrued to Tenant against Owner; (iii) subject to any obligation with respect to any security deposit under the Lease unless such security deposit has been physically delivered to Purchaser; or (iv) bound by any previous modification or prepayment of rents or other sums due under the Lease greater than one month unless such modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by Beneficiary, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
4. Non-disturbance. So long as no default exists (after notice, if any, required by the Lease) as would entitle Owner under the Lease to terminate the Lease or would cause, without any further action of Owner, the termination of the Lease or would entitle Owner to dispossess Tenant thereunder, the Lease shall not be terminated nor shall Tenant's use, possession, or enjoyment of the Premises be interfered with, nor shall the leasehold estate granted by the Lease be affected in any foreclosure, or in any action or proceeding instituted under or in connection with the Deed of Trust and Lender shall recognize Tenant as the tenant of the Premises and Tenant's Option to Purchase and Right of First Refusal under the Lease for the remainder of the term of the Lease in accordance with the provisions thereof.
5. Payment of Rent on Default. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Lease has been assigned to Beneficiary by Owner as security for its obligations under, and secured by, the Note and Deed of Trust. Tenant agrees that, upon receipt of notice from Beneficiary that a default exists under the Note or Deed of Trust, or any instrument or document collateral thereto, Tenant shall make all rental and other payments required pursuant to the Lease, as directed by written instruction from Beneficiary. Tenant may make payments to Beneficiary directly in the event of such a default, for which written notice has been delivered to Tenant, and thereby be properly credited with an offset and credit for such payments as against the rental payments then due under the Lease.
Owner acknowledges and agrees that Beneficiary shall be entitled to collect and receive rents pursuant to the Lease as provided herein and Tenant is authorized and hereby directed to make all such payments of rent to Beneficiary upon receipt of the notice of default provided that Tenant shall be under no duty or obligation to make further inquiry. Tenant shall continue to make all such payments of rent to Beneficiary unless and until Tenant is otherwise authorized and directed in writing by Beneficiary.
6. Further Documents. Tenant shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary or to any party to whom Tenant hereby agrees to attorn, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such party, such other instruments as either shall request in order to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement.
7. Subordination. Tenant declares, agrees and acknowledges that it intentionally and unconditionally subordinates the Lease and its leasehold interest in favor of the lien or charge upon the Secured Property of the Deed of Trust in favor of Beneficiary, subject to the terms of this Agreement.
8. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their successors and assigns, and the holder from time to time of the Note.
9. Attorneys' Fees. If any legal action, arbitration or other proceeding is commenced to enforce any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of its actual expenses, including without limitation, expert witness fees, actual attorneys' fees and disbursements.
10. Notices. All notices to Beneficiary shall be by certified mail to the address given at the top of page one of this Agreement. All notices to Tenant shall be by certified mail to the Premises.

Except as herein modified all of the terms and provisions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect. In the event of a conflict between the Lease and this Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way impair or affect the lien created by the Deed of Trust or the other lien rights of Beneficiary.
12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts which together shall constitute but one and the same original.
