DEFAULT 19. In the event of any breach of this Lease by the Lessee, or an abandonment of the Premises by the Lessee, the Lessor has the option of 1) removing all persons and property from the Premises and repossessing the Premises in which case any of the Lessee's property which the Lessor removes from the Premises may be stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of, and for the account of Lessee, or 2) allowing the Lessee to remain in full possession and control of the Premises. If the Lessor chooses to repossess the Premises, the Lease will automatically terminate in accordance with provisions of the California Civil Code, Section 1951.2. In the event of such termination of the Lease, the Lessor may recover from the Lessee: 1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of termination including interest at 7% per annum; 2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided including interest at 7% per annum; 3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and 4) any other amount necessary to compensate the Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee's failure to perform his obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. If the Lessor chooses not to repossess the premises, but allows the Lessee to remain in full possession and control of the Premises, then in accordance with provisions of the California Civil Code, Section 1951.4, the Lessor may treat the Lease as being in full force and effect, and may collect from the Lessee all rents as they become due through the termination date of the lease as specified in the lease. For the purposes of this paragraph, the following do not constitute a termination of Lessee's right to possession: a) Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the property. b) The appointment of a receiver on the initiative of the Lessor to protect his interest under this Lease. LATE CHARGES 20. 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 designee within ten (10) days after such amount shall be due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount. 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. SURRENDER OF LEASE 21. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Lessor, terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies, or may, at the option of Lessor, operate as an assignment to him of any or all such subleases or subtenancies. 3 of 5 4 TAX INCREASES 22.

If such repairs cannot be made in ninety (90) days. Lessor may at his option, make same within a reasonable time, this Lease continuing in full force and effect and the rent to be proportionately reduced as aforesaid in this paragraph provided. In the event that Lessor does not so elect to make such repairs which cannot be made in ninety (90) days, or such repairs cannot be made under such laws and regulations, this Lease may be terminated at the option of either party. In respect to any partial destruction which Lessor is obligated to repair or may elect to repair under the terms of this paragraph, the provision of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and of Section 1933, Subdivision 4, of the Civil Code of the State of California are waived by Lessee. In the event that the building in which the Premises may be situated be destroyed to the extent of not less than 33 1/3% of the replacement cost thereof, Lessor may elect to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises be injured or not. A total destruction of the building in which the Premises may be situated shall terminate this Lease. In the event of any dispute between Lessor and Lessee relative to the provisions of this paragraph, they shall each select an arbitrator, the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator and the three arbitrators so selected shall hear and determine the controversy and their decision thereon shall be final and binding upon both Lessor and Lessee, who shall bear the cost of such arbitration equally between them.

As a condition for granting its consent to any subletting the Lessor may require the Lessee to agree to pay to the Lessor, as additional rental, all rents received by the Lessee from its Sublessee which are in excess of the amount payable by the Lessee to the Lessor hereunder. The Lessee shall, by one hundred twenty (120) days written notice, advice the Lessor of its intent to sublet the Premises or any portion thereof for any part of the term hereof.

If Lessee intends to sublet the entire Premises and Lessor elects to terminate this ease, this Lease shall be terminated on the date specified in Lessee's notice. If, however, this Lease shall terminate pursuant to the foregoing with respect to less than all the Premises, the rent, as defined and reserved hereinabove shall be adjusted on a prorate basis to the number of square feet retained by Lessee, and this Lease as so amended shall continue in full force and effect. In the event Lessee is allowed to assign, transfer or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, with the prior written consent of Lessor, no assignee, transferee or sublessee shall assign or transfer this Lease, either in whole or in part, or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises, without also having obtained the prior written consent of the Lessor. A consent of Lessor to one assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use by any other person shall not release Lessee from any of Lessee's obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent similar or dissimilar assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use by any other person.

The leasehold estate under this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest therein, be assignable for any purpose by operation of law without the written consent of Lessor. As a condition to its consent, Lessor may require Lessee to pay all expense in connection with the assignment, and Lessor may require Lessee's assignee or transferee (or other assignees or transferees) to assume in writing all of the obligations under this Lese. *Lessor agrees not to unreasonably withhold consent to sublet or assign. CONDEMNATION 27. If any part of the premises shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use, under any statute or by right of eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof, and a part thereof remains which is susceptible of occupation hereunder, this Lease shall, as to the part to taken, terminate as of the date title shall vest in the condemnor or purchaser, and the rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted so that the Lessee shall be required to pay for the remainder of the term only such portion of such rent as the value of the part remaining after such taking bears to the value of the entire Premises prior to such taking; but in such event Lessor shall have the option to terminate this Lease as of the date when title to the part so taken vests in the condemnor or purchaser. If all of the premises, or such part thereof be taken so that there does not remain a portion susceptible for occupation hereunder, this Lease shall thereupon terminate. If a part of all of the Premises be taken, all compensation awarded upon such taking shall go to the Lessor and the Lessee shall have no claim thereto. 4 of 5 5 EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE 28.

WAIVER 30. The waiver by Lessor of any breach of any term, covenant or condition, herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition therein contained. The subsequent acceptance of rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such rent. HOLDING OVER 31.
