Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Premises (and keys thereto) to Tenant, with the Tenant Improvements Substantially Complete, on or before the Target Delivery Date. Notwithstanding any entry, use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date, Tenant shall not have any obligation to pay Monthly Base Rent, Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments or Utilities Costs until the Commencement Date, at which time such obligations shall begin to accrue.

Landlord hereby represents and warrants to Tenant that the Premises, the Building (including without limitation all Building systems) and all Exterior Areas, as of the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant with the Tenant Improvements Substantially Complete, shall be (i) in material compliance with all applicable Laws in effect as of the date of this Lease, including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act and all related state and local access laws, regulations and requirements (the "ADA"), local building codes and local fire/life/safety codes, and (ii) in good and working order.

The "holdover amount" shall mean (i) the difference between (A) the monthly base rental rate (on a per rentable square foot basis) paid by Tenant to its landlord for the use of the Current Space after February 1, 2006 and (B) the monthly base rental rate (on a per rentable square foot basis) paid by Tenant to its landlord for the use of the Current Space immediately prior to the scheduled expiration date of Tenant's lease of the Current Space, multiplied by (ii) the number of rentable square feet of the Current Space. If the Commencement Date has not occurred on or before June 1, 2006, then Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving ten (10) days' prior written notice to Landlord of such intent to terminate, and if the Commencement Date has not occurred on or before the expiration of such ten (10) day period, this Lease shall terminate, and Tenant shall retain a claim against Landlord for damages constituting Tenant's actual costs incurred in connection with this Lease and/or as a result of Landlord's failure to achieve Substantial Completion by June 1, 2006, (Landlord shall not in any event be liable for lost revenues, profits, or business opportunities, or incidental or consequential damages of any kind). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the February 1 and the June 1 dates in this Section 4(c) shall be extended on a day for day basis for Permit Delays (as defined in the Work Letter) in accordance with the Work Letter. 5. RENT. (a) MONTHLY BASE RENT. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord the Monthly Base Rent for the Premises in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the Term without prior notice or demand. If the Term of this Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month, then the rent for such period will be prorated in the proportion that the number of days this Lease is in effect during such period bears to the number of days in such month. The obligation to pay Rent is absolute and unconditional, and shall not at any time be subject to offset, discount, or reduction of any kind whatsoever, except as specifically provided in this Lease. (b) LATE PAYMENTS. Late payments of Monthly Base Rent and/or any item of additional rent will be subject to interest and a late charge as provided in Section 20(d) below. (c) ABATEMENT. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event Tenant's use of all or a material part of the Building is materially impaired, for any reason other than the acts or omissions of Tenant or any of the Tenant Parties, such that the disruption materially and adversely interferes with the conduct of Tenant's business in the Building for three (3) consecutive business days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord or ten (10) days after written notice from Tenant to Landlord in any twelve (12) month period (such three (3) consecutive business day period or ten (10) day period after written notice from Tenant to Landlord, as applicable, is referred to herein as the "Eligibility Period"), due to (i) an interruption of utility or mechanical services to the Building (A) caused by the negligence or misconduct of a Landlord Party, or (B) which is covered by Landlord's rental loss insurance policy, (ii) an inability to access the Building or Parking Areas (A) due to actions of a Landlord Party, or (B) which is covered by Landlord's rental loss insurance policy, (iii) the performance of repairs, maintenance or other work required to be made to the Building which are the responsibility of Landlord under this Lease or which otherwise are performed by or on behalf of Landlord, and/or (iv) Landlord's failure to perform repairs, maintenance or other work required to be made to the Building which are the responsibility of Landlord under this Lease or which otherwise are performed by or on behalf of Landlord, then Tenant shall be entitled to an equitable abatement of Monthly Base Rent under this Lease based upon the portion of the Building affected thereby (provided that if the operation of Tenant's business from the remainder of the Building not affected thereby is not reasonably practicable under the circumstances and Tenant in fact does not operate for business from the remainder of the Building, all Monthly Base Rent (but not additional rent) under this Lease shall be subject to such abatement) from the commencement of the Eligibility Period until the applicable material impairment is cured. The provisions of this Section 5(d) shall not, however, apply in the event of a casualty governed by the provisions of Section 18 below or in the event of a taking or condemnation governed by the provisions of Section 19 below. No abatement of rent shall apply to any portion of the Building which is not physically occupied and actually used by the Tenant during the Eligibility Period. -5- (d) ABATED MONTHLY BASE RENT. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant's installments of Monthly Base Rent (but not any additional rent or other payments or amounts due) for the first eight (8) full calendar months of the Term shall be abated in full. 6. OPERATING EXPENSES; REAL PROPERTY TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS; UTILITIES COSTS. (a) COVENANT TO PAY. In addition to Monthly Base Rent, commencing on the Commencement Date, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord as additional rent in accordance with the terms of this Section 6, determined on an annual basis, but payable monthly as provided herein, Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Utilities Costs attributable to the Premises. "Operating Expenses," "Real Property Taxes and Assessments," and "Utilities Costs" shall have the meanings set forth in Exhibit "C" hereto. (b) ESTIMATE STATEMENT. Commencing on the Commencement Date, and from time to time thereafter during the Term of this Lease, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a statement ("Estimate Statement") wherein Landlord will estimate some or all of the Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs attributable to the Premises for the then current calendar year. Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, as additional rent, one-twelfth (1/12th) of the estimated Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments and Utilities Costs pursuant to the most recently delivered Estimate Statement each month thereafter, beginning with the next installment of rent due, until such time as Landlord issues a revised Estimate Statement; except that, (i) concurrently with the regular monthly rent payment next due following the receipt of each such revised Estimate Statement, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord an amount equal to one monthly installment of any amounts by which the revised Estimate Statement exceeds the prior Estimate Statement (less any applicable Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and/or Utilities Costs already paid) multiplied by the number of months from the beginning of the applicable calendar year to the month of such rent payment next due, all months inclusive, (ii) Landlord shall not provide Tenant with revised Estimate Statements more than one time in any calendar year of the Term, and (iii) if Landlord delivers a revised Estimate Statement later than the twentieth (20th) day of a calendar month, then such revised Estimate Statement shall not be effective until the first day of the second calendar month after delivery. (c) RECONCILIATION STATEMENT. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease, Landlord will deliver to Tenant a statement ("Reconciliation Statement") which states the actual amounts incurred by Landlord for Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs for the preceding calendar year. If the Reconciliation Statement reveals that the actual Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs are more than the total additional rent paid by Tenant for Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs on account of the preceding calendar year, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord the difference in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Reconciliation Statement. If the Reconciliation Statement reveals that the actual Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs are less than the additional rent paid by Tenant for Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs on account of the preceding calendar year, Landlord will credit any overpayment toward the next monthly installments of Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs due under this Lease; provided however, if such excess exceeds $10,000 or this Lease has expired or terminated, Landlord will promptly refund any such overpayment to Tenant. (d) MISCELLANEOUS. Even though the Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of the actual Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments, and Utilities Costs for the year in which this Lease terminates (which shall occur if at all within 120 days of the expiration of the calendar year in which Lease termination occurs), Tenant agrees to promptly pay any increase due over the estimated amounts paid and, conversely, any overpayment made in the event said amounts decrease shall promptly be rebated by Landlord to Tenant or offset against the Monthly Base Rent coming due pursuant to this Lease. Such obligation will be a continuing one which will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. -6- (e) AUDIT RIGHTS. Tenant and its duly authorized representatives or any certified public accountant selected by Tenant shall have the right to audit the records of Landlord related to Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments and Utilities Costs. Any such audit shall be performed, if at all, within six (6) months after receipt of the applicable Reconciliation Statement for a calendar year. Any audit hereunder shall be upon not less then ten (10) days' prior written notice to Landlord, during normal business hours at the Building. Tenant may review and photocopy, at Tenant's expense, reasonable documentation supporting Operating Expense, Real Property Tax and Assessment and Utilities Cost items under review. If Tenant's Percentage of actual Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments and Utilities Costs are determined to have been overstated by Landlord for any calendar year in excess of one percent (1%), Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost of Tenant's audit within thirty (30) days following Tenant's submission to Landlord of reasonable evidence of the amount of such costs; provided, however, that such reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of the overcharge. Tenant's payment of Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and Assessments and Utilities Costs in accordance with Landlord's Estimate Statements or Reconciliation Statements shall not constitute a waiver of any right to audit and/or dispute such expenses as set forth herein. (f) CONTROLLABLE OPERATING EXPENSES. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease or Exhibit "C" attached hereto to the contrary, Tenant shall not be liable to Landlord for any aggregate increase in Controllable Operating Expenses (defined below) in excess of four percent (4%) over the Controllable Operating Expenses paid in the prior calendar year, with such excess to be borne by Landlord at Landlord's sole cost and expense. As used herein, "Controllable Operating Expenses" shall mean Operating Expenses which can be reasonably controlled by Landlord and shall not include insurance costs, Real Property Taxes and Assessments or Utilities Costs. Operating Expenses shall not be deemed to be "Controllable Operating Expenses" if Landlord exercises reasonable efforts to obtain competitive bids for the Operating Expense items in question and is not able to obtain a lower bid from a reasonably qualified contractor or service provider, for the same quality and quantity of items or services; provided, however, if Landlord fails to seek bids for an Operating Expense item that is likely to result in bids of varying prices, or if Landlord bids out work for an Operating Expense item and Landlord does not select the lowest bid from a reasonably qualified contractor or service provider, for the same quality and quantity of items or services, then such Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be Controllable Operating Expenses. 7. USE. (a) TENANT'S USE OF THE PREMISES. The Premises may be used for the use or uses set forth in Section 1(m) only, and Tenant will not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. (b) COMPLIANCE. At Tenant's sole cost and expense, Tenant agrees to procure, maintain all governmental licenses, insurance and permits required for the proper and lawful conduct of Tenant's business from the Premises, if any. Tenant agrees not to use, alter or occupy the Premises or allow the Premises to be used, altered or occupied in violation of, and Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to use and occupy the Premises in compliance with: (i) subject to Landlord's covenants under this Lease, any and all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations ("Laws"), and (ii) the requirements of the Board of Fire Underwriters and any other similar body. Tenant agrees not to cause, maintain or permit any nuisance or waste in, on, under or about the Premises. No obligation of Tenant to comply with Laws shall require Tenant to make any alterations, additions or improvements to the systems or structure of the Building or any areas outside the Premises, which obligation shall be performed by Landlord at its sole cost and expense; provided, however, Tenant shall construct the Tenant Improvements pursuant to the Work Letter in compliance with all applicable Laws (including the ADA). (c) HAZARDOUS MATERIALS (i) TENANT HAZARDOUS MATERIALS REQUIREMENTS. Except for ordinary office and equipment supplies typically used in the ordinary course of business within office buildings, such as copier toner, -7- liquid paper, glue, ink and common household cleaning materials (some or all of which may constitute "Hazardous Materials" as defined in this Lease and are referred to hereinafter as the "Permitted Substances"), Tenant agrees not to cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored, used, handled, generated, released or disposed of on, in, under or about the Premises, the Building or the Land by Tenant or the Tenant Parties, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion.

Landlord, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the removal of any Hazardous Materials located in or about the Building or Land as of date that possession of the Premises is delivered to Tenant, to the extent that removal is required by the Environmental Laws or to the extent that the presence of such Hazardous Materials (even if in compliance with Environmental Laws) would materially adversely affect Tenant's use and occupancy of the Building pursuant to this Lease. Except for Permitted Substances, and except as may be in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws, Landlord agrees not to cause or knowingly permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored, used, handled, generated, released or disposed of on, in, under or about the Premises, the Building, the Exterior Areas or any other portion of the Land by Landlord Parties").

The foregoing indemnities shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 10. SURRENDER; HOLDING OVER. (a) SURRENDER. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not constitute a merger, and shall, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all subleases or subtenancies. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant agrees to peaceably surrender the Premises to Landlord broom clean, with data and telecommunications wiring and cabling in place, and in reasonably good repair and condition, ordinary wear and tear and casualty damage excepted, with all of Tenant's personal property removed from the Premises and all damage caused by such removal repaired. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or to Landlord's agent or any employee thereof alone will not be sufficient to constitute a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises. (b) HOLDING OVER. Tenant will not be permitted to hold over possession of the Premises after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term without the express written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Landlord may, at its option, treat Tenant as a tenant at sufferance only, and such continued occupancy by Tenant shall be subject to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, so far as applicable, except that the Monthly Base Rent for any such -9- holdover period shall be (i) the same Monthly Base Rent in effect under this Lease immediately prior to such holdover during the first ninety (90) days of holdover, and (ii) thereafter one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Base Rent in effect under this Lease immediately prior to such holdover. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not be liable for any consequential, punitive or other damages caused by the first ninety (90) days of any holdover, but if Tenant fails to surrender the Premises within ninety (90) days after the expiration of this Lease in accordance with the terms of this Section 10(b) despite demand to do so by Landlord, Tenant agrees to promptly indemnify, protect, defend and hold Landlord harmless from all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, expenses and costs (including attorneys' fees and costs), including, without limitation, costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in returning the Premises to the condition in which Tenant was to surrender it and claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from Tenant's failure to surrender the Premises. The provisions of this Section 10(b) will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 11. TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY; RENT TAX. (a) TAXES ON TENANT'S PROPERTY. Tenant agrees to pay before delinquency, all taxes and assessments (real and personal) levied against any personal property, trade fixtures or Alterations placed by Tenant in or about the Premises (including any increase in the assessed value of the Premises based upon the value of any such personal property or trade fixtures). If any such taxes or assessments are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property, Landlord may, after written notice to Tenant (and under proper protest if requested by Tenant) pay such taxes and assessments, in which event Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord all amounts paid by Landlord within ten (10) business days after demand by Landlord; provided, however, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, will have the right, with Landlord's cooperation, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the amount of any such taxes and assessments so paid under protest. (b) RENT TAX. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, any tax ("RENT TAX") upon Rent payable under this Lease or any tax or fee in any form payable by Landlord because of or measured by receipts or income of Landlord derived from this Lease. The preceding sentence shall not apply to general income tax or business and occupation tax of Landlord, except to the extent a Rent Tax is imposed as a business and occupation tax. If a Rent Tax imposed on a monthly basis as Rent is due, then such Rent Tax shall be payable monthly on the first day of each calendar month; provided, however, that the first payment shall be due no sooner than thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord, and each change in the amount due shall require thirty (30) days written notice prior to the change. 12. ALTERATIONS. After installation of the initial Tenant Improvements for the Premises pursuant to Exhibit "B", Tenant may, at its sole cost and expense, make alterations, additions, improvements and decorations (including, without limitation, wall coverings, window coverings, floor coverings and other finishes) to the Premises (collectively, "Alterations") subject to and upon the following terms and conditions: (a) PERMITTED ALTERATIONS. Except for Permitted Alterations, Tenant shall not perform any Alterations in the Premises or the Land without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may without the prior written consent of Landlord, but upon prior notice to Landlord, replace carpeting, floor coverings and/or wall coverings; repaint walls; and make other Alterations that do not (i) materially and adversely affect the Building's structure, equipment, services or systems, or the proper functioning thereof; (ii) materially and adversely affect the outside appearance or character of the Building; or (iv) cost more than the greater of $2.50 per square foot or One Hundred Thousand and No/100ths Dollars ($100,000.00) per project (exclusive of the cost of carpeting, painting, floor coverings and/or wall coverings) (collectively, "Permitted Alterations"). (b) LANDLORD'S APPROVAL. Before proceeding with any Alterations other than Permitted Alterations, Tenant must first obtain Landlord's written approval of the plans, specifications and working drawings for such Alterations, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay as long as -10- (i) Tenant delivers to Landlord notice and a copy of any final plans, specifications and working drawings for any such Alterations at least ten (10) days prior to commencement of the work thereof, and (ii) the other conditions of this Section 12 are satisfied. Landlord shall approve or be deemed to have approved all such requests for approval within twenty (20) days after request therefor. (c) CONTRACTORS. Alterations other than Permitted Alterations may be made or installed only by contractors and subcontractors which have been approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay. Before proceeding with any Alterations, Tenant agrees to provide Landlord with ten (10) days prior written notice and Tenant's contractors must obtain and maintain, on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant's sole cost and expense all necessary governmental permits and approvals for the commencement and completion of such Alterations. Throughout the performance of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to obtain, or cause its contractors to obtain, workers compensation insurance and general liability insurance in compliance with the provisions of Section 17 of this Lease. (d) MANNER OF PERFORMANCE. All Alterations must be performed: (i) substantially in accordance with the approved plans, specifications and working drawings (if applicable); (ii) in a lien-free and first-class and workmanlike manner; and (iii) in compliance with all applicable permits, laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders and rulings now or hereafter in effect and imposed by any governmental agencies and authorities having jurisdiction. (e) OWNERSHIP. The Tenant Improvements and all Alterations will become the property of Landlord and will remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises and become the property of the Landlord at the end of the Term of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord may, by written notice delivered to Tenant concurrently with Landlord's approval of any Alterations, identify those Alterations which Landlord will require Tenant to remove at the end of the Term of this Lease. Tenant shall have no obligation to remove upon termination of the Lease any initial Tenant Improvements constructed in accordance with the Work Letter, any Alterations to which Landlord does not require removal in writing concurrently with its approval of working drawings, or any Permitted Alterations. If Landlord requires Tenant to remove any Alterations pursuant to this Section, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to remove the identified Alterations on or before the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and repair any damage to the Premises caused by such removal and return the Premises back to the substantially the same condition as when originally received by Landlord, normal wear and tear and casualty excepted. (f) PERSONAL PROPERTY. All articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises (including Tenant's business and trade fixtures, furniture, movable partitions, raised floors, and equipment such as telephones and switches, video conference equipment, projectors, copy machines, computer terminals, wireless network equipment, refrigerators, supplemental HVAC units and facsimile machines), whether or not attached to the Building, will be and remain the property of Tenant, and must be removed by Tenant from the Premises, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, on or before the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant agrees to repair any damage caused by such removal at its cost on or before the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. 13. REPAIRS. (a) LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS. Landlord agrees to repair and maintain or cause to be repaired or maintained in a manner consistent with similar office buildings with similar physical characteristics in King County and Snohomish County, Washington, but in no event to a lesser standard than described in Exhibit "D" attached hereto, the structural portions of the Building (including the shell and core), the plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, elevator and electrical systems for the Building, and all Exterior Areas (excluding the Tenant Improvements, Alterations, and any improvements and equipment installed by Tenant), unless such maintenance and repairs are caused by the act, neglect or omission of any duty by Tenant or the Tenant Parties under this Lease. Landlord will not be liable for any failure to make any such repairs or to perform any maintenance unless such failure shall persist for ten (10) days (or 24 hours in the case of an emergency) after written notice of the need of such repairs or maintenance is given to Landlord by Tenant. -11- (b) TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS. Subject to Landlord's repair and maintenance obligations under Section 13(a) above and Exhibit "D" attached hereto, Tenant agrees to keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in good condition and repair (reasonable wear and tear, damage by casualty event, Landlord's repair and maintenance obligations under this Lease and/or the negligence or misconduct of Landlord or Landlord Parties excepted) and, when and if needed, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, to make all repairs to the Premises and every part thereof. Tenant has no authority to allow any liens to encumber all or any portion of the Premises, and Tenant agrees to cause any mechanics' liens or other liens arising as a result of work performed by Tenant or at Tenant's direction to be eliminated as provided in Section 14 below. (c) SELF-HELP. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord agrees that if Landlord fails to perform any repair or maintenance obligation under this Lease which it is obligated to perform within the time periods set forth in Section 21 below, then Tenant shall be permitted to perform such obligations on Landlord's behalf in the Premises, provided Tenant first delivers to Landlord an additional three (3) business days' prior written notice that Tenant will be performing such obligations, and provided further that Landlord fails to commence to perform such obligations within such additional three (3) business day period and diligently prosecute such work to completion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the nature of the unperformed obligation is such that a bona fide emergency involving an immediate and imminent danger to life, health or property or material interference with Tenant's business exists, the foregoing time periods and those set forth in Section 21 shall be reasonably reduced based upon such emergency circumstances. All contractors engaged by Tenant pursuant to this Section 13(c) shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval, and Landlord agrees to approve or reject any contractor proposed to be used by Tenant within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of Tenant's second notice, provided that if a proposed contractor is licensed and reputable, and all requisite permits have been obtained for the desired work, then Landlord shall be deemed to have given its approval of the proposed contractor. Any work performed by Tenant, and the obligations of Landlord, pursuant to this Section 13(c) shall be subject to the terms of Section 21 below. 14. LIENS. Tenant has no authority to allow any liens to encumber all or any portion of the Premises. Tenant agrees not to permit any mechanic's, materialmen's or other liens to be filed against all or any part of the Land, the Building or the Premises, nor against Tenant's leasehold interest in the Premises, by reason of or in connection with any repairs, alterations, improvements or other work contracted for or undertaken by Tenant or any other act or omission of Tenant or the Tenant Parties. Landlord will have the right at all reasonable times to post on the Premises and record any notices of non-responsibility which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. If any such liens are filed, Tenant will, at its sole cost, promptly cause such liens to be released of record or removed by posting a bond in compliance with RCW 60.04.161 so that they no longer affects title to the Land, the Building or the Premises. 15.

This insurance policy must be upon all property owned by Tenant and located at the Building including, without limitation, any Alterations made by or for the Tenant (expressly excluding the initial Tenant Improvements installed by Tenant per Exhibit "B" which shall be insured by Landlord as part of its coverage of the Building's shell and core), and all furniture, fittings, installations, fixtures and any other personal property of Tenant, in an amount not less than the full replacement cost thereof. (ii) Commercial General Liability Insurance or Comprehensive General Liability Insurance with an aggregate liability amount not less than $5,000,000 combined single limit for both bodily injury and property damage, including blanket broad form property damage, personal injury, completed operations, products liability and host liquor liability (or liquor liability, if applicable). At least $1,000,000 of such coverage shall be provided by a primary liability policy, and any balance may be provided by a so-called "umbrella" or excess liability policy. If such policy is an aggregate liability limit policy, not less than $5,000,000 of such limit per annum shall be available for claims originating at the Premises.

Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord, as soon as practicable after placing the required insurance, but in any event within the time frame specified in Section 17(a) above, certificate(s) of insurance evidencing the existence of such insurance (except for the workers' compensation coverage required pursuant to Section 17(a)(iii) above) and Tenant's compliance with the provisions of this Section 17. Tenant agrees to cause replacement certificates to be delivered to Landlord not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any such policy or policies. (iii) General Liability policies under Section 17(a)(ii) must include policy endorsements naming Landlord (and at Landlord's request, Superior Mortgagees of which Tenant has been informed in writing) as additional insureds. -13- (c) MUTUAL WAIVER OF PARTIES. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive their rights against each other with respect to any claims or damages or losses which are caused by or result from (a) any occurrence insured against under any insurance policy (other than the commercial general liability insurance) carried by Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be) pursuant to the provisions of this Lease and enforceable at the time of such damage or loss, or (b) any occurrence which would have been covered under any insurance (other than the commercial general liability insurance) required to be obtained and maintained by Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be) under this Lease (as applicable) had such insurance been obtained and maintained as required therein. The foregoing waivers shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, any other waivers or releases contained in this Lease. (d) WAIVER OF INSURERS. Each party shall cause each insurance policy (other than the commercial general liability insurance) required to be obtained by it pursuant to this Lease to provide that the insurer waives all rights of recovery by way of subrogation against either Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, in connection with any claims, losses and damages covered by such policy. If either party fails to maintain any such insurance required hereunder, such insurance shall be deemed to be self-insured with a deemed full waiver of subrogation as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. (e) LANDLORD INSURANCE. (i) "LANDLORD INSURANCE" shall mean the following: (a) Commercial General Liability Insurance, including Contractual Liability Insurance coverage, applicable to the Building and Land, on an occurrence basis, with a minimum combined single limit of at least $5,000,000; (b) property insurance on the Building (including Tenant Improvements) and Land (including parking), and personal property related thereto, with coverage for perils as set forth under the Causes of Loss - Special Form (or, if not available at any time, then the broadest form available at such time), with coverage extended for the perils of flood and earthquake, in an amount equal to full insurable replacement cost, and with an ordinance and law endorsement, and debris removal coverage; (c) Rent Loss Insurance for not less than twelve (12) months, and not more than twenty-four (24) months; and (d) such other coverage as may be required by Landlord's lender holding a lien against the Building and Land provided that such insurance coverage is commercially reasonable given the location and physical characteristics of the Building. (ii) If at any time Landlord does not maintain any one or more of the policies of Landlord Insurance as provided in this Section 17(e), then Tenant may obtain the policy or policies that are not maintained by Landlord (the "NON-MAINTAINED POLICY"), at Tenant's expense (including the payment of any deductibles). If Tenant maintains an insurance policy in replacement of a Non-maintained Policy, and Landlord subsequently decides to obtain a policy with such coverage, then Landlord may not charge to Tenant, as an Operating Expense, the cost of the policy until after thirty (30) days' prior written to Tenant. If at any time Landlord maintains insurance not included in the definition of Landlord Insurance, Landlord may not charge to Tenant as an Operating Expense, the additional cost of such coverage. (f) BLANKET INSURANCE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 17, Tenant's obligation to obtain and maintain the insurance required hereunder may be satisfied by obtaining coverage under so-called blanket and excess liability policies of insurance carried and maintained by Tenant provided that the coverage afforded Landlord will not be reduced or diminished by reason of the use of such blanket and excess liability policies of insurance and provided further that the other applicable requirements of this Section 17 are satisfied. 18. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. (a) PARTIAL DESTRUCTION. If the Premises, the Building or the Exterior Areas (including Parking Areas) are damaged by fire or other casualty to an extent not exceeding fifty percent (50%) of the full replacement cost thereof, and the damage thereto may be repaired, reconstructed or restored to substantially its condition immediately prior to such damage within three hundred sixty five (365) days from the date of such casualty, then Landlord agrees to commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair, reconstruction and restoration and this Lease will continue in full force and effect. Landlord agrees to give written notice to Tenant of its intention to repair or terminate, as permitted above, within -14- the earlier of sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such casualty, or fifteen (15) days after Landlord's receipt of the estimate from Landlord's contractor (the applicable time period to be referred to herein as the "Notice Period"). (b) SUBSTANTIAL DESTRUCTION. Any damage or destruction to the Premises, the Building or the Exterior Areas (including the Parking Areas) which Landlord is not obligated to repair pursuant to Section 18(a) above will be deemed a substantial destruction. In the event of a substantial destruction, either Landlord or Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease effective as of the date thirty (30) days after receipt of either party's written election to so terminate; provided, however, that such written notice to so terminate shall be effective only if given within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such casualty. If this Lease is not terminated in accordance with this Section 18(b), then Landlord shall repair, reconstruct and restore the portion of the Building, the Premises and the Exterior Areas damaged by such casualty in accordance with this Section 18. (c) RESTORATION OBLIGATIONS. In the event of any damage or destruction of all or any part of the Premises, Tenant agrees to immediately notify Landlord thereof.

Subject to Section 12, at Tenant's expense as provided in this Lease, Tenant shall restore any Alterations and Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property unless this Lease is terminated as permitted in this Section 18. (d) ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of any damage, repair, reconstruction and/or restoration described in this Section 18, rent will be abated or reduced, as the case may be, from the date of such casualty, in proportion to the degree to which Tenant's use of the Building is impaired during such period of repair until Landlord completes all repairs to be performed by Landlord under this Lease and Tenant has been given a reasonable period of time not to exceed forty-five (45) days to re-fixturize and move back into the Premises. (e) INABILITY TO COMPLETE. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 18, if Landlord is obligated or elects to repair, reconstruct and/or restore the damaged portion of the Building or the Premises pursuant to Section 18(a) or 18(b) above, but is delayed from completing such repair, reconstruction and/or restoration beyond the date which is the earlier of (i) forty-five (45) days after the date estimated by Landlord's contractor for completion thereof by reason of any causes (other than delays caused by Tenant or Tenant Parties, but excluding Force Majeure Delay pursuant to Section 27 below) or (ii) three hundred sixty five (365) days after the date of the casualty damage, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease upon ten (10) days' prior written notice given to Landlord after the expiration of such forty-five (45) day period (unless the work is completed within such ten (10) day notice period. (f) DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. Either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Building occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease and either Landlord or Tenant reasonable determines that the restoration of such damage cannot be completed within sixty (60) days after the date of such casualty; provided, however, notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, if Landlord has elected to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 18(f), then within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such termination, Tenant may exercise any of its unexercised Extension Options, which exercise shall negate and render null and void Landlord's election to terminate this Lease, and the restoration of the Building and other improvements to the Land shall proceed in accordance with this Section 18. (g) TERMINATION. Upon any termination of this Lease under any of the provisions of this Section 18, the Parties will be released without further obligation to the other from the date possession of the Premises is surrendered to Landlord except for items which have accrued and are unpaid as of the date of termination and matters which are to survive any termination of this Lease as provided in this Lease. -15- (h) SUBORDINATION. Nothing in this Section 18 shall be construed as overriding any requirements in the Superior Mortgages regarding damage and/or destruction, and the Landlord's obligations in connection therewith, and/or any provisions or requirements in the Superior Mortgages regarding the use and control of insurance proceeds; all provisions in this Section 18 shall be subject and subordinate to the requirements and provisions of the Superior Mortgages; provided, however, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that this Section 18(h) shall not operate to absolve or otherwise excuse Landlord from Landlord's obligation to restore the Premises when and as required pursuant to this Section 18. 19. EMINENT DOMAIN. (a) SUBSTANTIAL TAKING. If the whole of the Building, or such part of the Land or the Building as shall substantially and adversely interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises as contemplated by this Lease (including without limitation Tenant's use of the Parking Areas), is taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the right of appropriation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking, then Tenant will have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to such authority. With respect to a taking or condemnation affecting solely the number of parking spaces available in the Parking Areas, so long as the number of parking stalls remaining on the Land are not reduced below the minimum number required by City of Bothell codes applicable to Tenant's use of the Premises, then such taking shall not be deemed to substantially and/or adversely interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises provided that reasonable ingress and egress to the Parking Areas from public streets remains available. (b) PARTIAL TAKING; ABATEMENT OF RENT. In the event of a taking of a portion of the Building which does not materially or adversely interfere with Tenant's use and occupancy of the Building, then Landlord will thereafter proceed to make a functional unit of the remaining portion of the Building, and rent will be abated with respect to the part of the Building which Tenant is deprived of on account of such taking. (c) CONDEMNATION AWARD. In connection with any taking of the Premises or the Building, Landlord will be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award which may be made or given in such taking or condemnation, without deduction or apportionment for any estate or interest of Tenant, it being expressly understood and agreed by Tenant that no portion of any such award will be allowed or paid to Tenant for any so-called bonus or excess value of this Lease, and such bonus or excess value will be the sole property of Landlord. Tenant agrees not to assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking (including any claim for bonus or excess value of this Lease); provided, however, if any portion of the Premises is taken, Tenant will have the right to recover from the condemning authority (but not from Landlord) any compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant for the taking of Tenant's furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property within the Premises (but not the Tenant Improvements), for Tenant's relocation expenses, for any loss of goodwill or other damage to Tenant's business by reason of such taking, and any other damages that may be recovered under the laws of the State, so long as any award to Tenant does not reduce any award to Landlord. (d) TEMPORARY TAKING. In the event of taking of the Building or any part thereof for temporary use, (i) this Lease will remain unaffected thereby and rent will abate for the duration of the taking in proportion to the extent Tenant's use of the Building is interfered with, and (ii) Landlord will be entitled to receive such portion or portions of any award made for such use. For purpose of this Section 19(d), a temporary taking shall be defined as a taking for a period of ninety (90) days or less. 20. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. (a) DEFAULTS. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events will be deemed a "Default" by Tenant: (i) The failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where such failure continues for a period of five (5) business days -16- after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that written notice shall not be required more than twice in any calendar year. (ii) The failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the express or implied covenants or provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant, other than as specified in Section 20(a)(i) above, where such failure continues (where no other period of time is expressly provided) for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant. If the nature of Tenant's Default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant will not be deemed to be in Default if Tenant commences such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion, but in not event longer than one hundred twenty (120) days. (iii) (a) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (b) the filing by or against Tenant of a petition to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (c) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Tenant within sixty (60) days; or (d) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant's assets located at the Premises or of Tenant's interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days. (b) LANDLORD'S REMEDIES. After the occurrence of a Default by Tenant, Landlord may, at its option, immediately declare Tenant's rights under this Lease terminated, and, subject to the requirements of applicable laws, reenter the Premises using such force as may be necessary, and repossess itself thereof, as of its former estate, and remove all persons and property from the Premises. Notwithstanding any such reentry, the liability of Tenant for the full Rent provided for herein shall not be extinguished for the balance of this Lease, and Tenant shall make good to Landlord any deficiency arising from a reletting of the Premises at a lesser Rent, plus the costs and expenses of renovating, altering and reletting the Premises, including attorneys' fees or brokers' fees incident to Landlord's reentry or reletting. Tenant shall pay any such deficiency each month as the amount thereof is ascertained by Landlord or, at Landlord's option, Landlord may recover in addition to all Rent and any other sums unpaid at the time of judgment, the present value of the amount at the time of judgment by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Lease Term after judgment exceeds the amount of Rent loss which Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, discounted at the rate of five percent (5%). In reletting the Premises, Landlord may grant commercially reasonable rent concessions and the amount due from Tenant shall not be reduced thereby. Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the right of Landlord to recover for indemnification under any provision herein, for matters which occurred prior to the termination of this Lease, or for any other remedy at law or in equity. Tenant acknowledges that if Tenant is in Default under this Lease and at that time any other property owned by Landlord is available for lease, Landlord has the right to lease such other premises, and this shall not reduce Tenant's obligations under this Lease through the remaining Lease Term. (c) LANDLORD'S REMEDIES; PERFORMANCE FOR TENANT. All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease are to be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and, except as expressly provided in this Lease, without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant fails to pay any sum of money owed to any party other than Landlord, for which it is liable under this Lease, or if Tenant fails to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, and such failure constitutes a Default by Tenant, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from its obligations, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such other act to be made or performed by Tenant. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord upon demand for all sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate, from the date of such payment by Landlord until reimbursed by Tenant. This remedy shall be in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord set forth in this Section 20. (d) LATE PAYMENT. If Tenant fails to pay any installment of Rent within ten (10) days of when due or if Tenant fails to make any other payment for which Tenant is obligated under this Lease within ten (10) -17- days of when due, such late amount will accrue interest at the Interest Rate and Tenant agrees to pay Landlord as additional rent such interest on such amount from the date such amount becomes due until such amount is paid. In addition, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord concurrently with such late payment amount, as additional rent, a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the amount due to compensate Landlord for the extra costs Landlord will incur as a result of such late payment. Acceptance of any such interest and late charge will not constitute a waiver of the Tenant's Default with respect to the overdue amount, or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the first two (2) monetary delinquencies in any calendar year, Tenant shall be entitled to receive written notice and five (5) business days from receipt of such notice to cure such monetary delinquency before Landlord may assess any interest or late charges under this Lease. (e) RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord and Tenant contained in this Lease will be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them will be exclusive of the other, and except as otherwise expressly stated in this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by law or in equity, whether or not stated in this Lease. Nothing in this Section 20 will be deemed to limit or otherwise affect each party's indemnification of the other pursuant to any provision of this Lease. 21. LANDLORD'S DEFAULT. Landlord's failure to perform or observe any of its obligations under this Lease or to correct a breach of any warranty or representation made in this Lease (provided that such breach of representation or warranty is reasonably susceptible of cure) within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Tenant setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and extent of the failure referencing pertinent Lease provisions or if more than thirty (30) days is required to cure the breach, Landlord's failure to begin curing within the thirty (30) day period and diligently prosecute the cure to completion, shall constitute a default. If Tenant has provided simultaneous written notice thereof to Superior Mortgagees (if any and if Tenant has notice thereof) and Landlord (and/or Superior Mortgagees if any) has failed to commence to cure such default within thirty (30) days (or such shorter time as is commercially reasonable in the case of an emergency threatening imminent harm to persons or property), Tenant may at its option (but shall not be obligated), without waiving any claim for breach of agreement, thereafter cure the default for the account of the Landlord, which cure shall be preceded by an additional written notice given at least three (3) days prior to such cure to Landlord and Superior Mortgagees that Tenant plans to undertake the cure, and the reasonable cost of such cure shall be deemed paid or incurred for the account of Landlord, and Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for Tenant's out-of-pocket expenditures paid to third parties to effectuate such cure, such reimbursement to be within thirty (30) days after completion of the cure and invoice to Landlord showing the costs of cure. If Tenant elects to exercise such cure rights, such election shall be in lieu of any right to terminate this Lease for purposes of such cured default only; Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this Lease for any Landlord default which Tenant has elected to cure as provided in this Section 21. If Landlord disputes either the necessity of the cure or the cost thereof, the matter shall be settled by arbitration in Seattle, Washington, pursuant to Section 33(n) below. The arbitration shall be held within sixty (60) days of Landlord notifying Tenant it disputes Tenant's cure. If Landlord fails to reimburse Tenant within the 30 day period above (or, if disputed then within ten (10) days after final determination in the arbitration), then thereafter Tenant may offset such reimbursement against the monthly Rent (but not additional rent) up to a maximum of a 25% offset in any month, until Tenant has recovered the entire expenditure. 22. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. (a) RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. Tenant shall have not have the right to assign, encumber, sublease, or transfer this Lease without Landlord's prior written consent, which shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed (any such assignment, encumbrance, sublease, or transfer will sometimes be referred to as a "Transfer"). Upon a Transfer, or a request therefor, Landlord shall not have the right to recapture the Premises. Any Transfer shall state that the Transferee shall make all payments under the assignment or sublease directly to Landlord, after written notice from Landlord of an uncured Default by Tenant under this Lease. Tenant agrees that all payments from Transferee shall be payable directly to Landlord for the duration of any uncured Default by Tenant under this Lease. -18- (b) NON-TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 22 to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 22, a reorganization, merger, sale, partnership change, assignment, transfer or hypothecation of any partnership or other ownership interest in Tenant shall not be deemed a Transfer under the Lease so long as the successor entity reasonably has the financial wherewithal to perform its obligations under this Lease. If the successor entity has comparable or greater financial strength to that of the Tenant as of the Commencement Date, then such successor entity shall be conclusively deemed to have the financial wherewithal to perform its obligations under the Lease. The use by or the subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to any subsidiary or Affiliate of Tenant shall not constitute a Transfer under this Lease or require the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant may allow any person or company which is a client or customer of Tenant, or which is providing a service to Tenant or one of Tenant's clients, to occupy certain portions of the Building without such occupancy being deemed a Transfer. For purposes of this Lease, an "Affiliate" of any entity shall mean another entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such entity. Prior to effecting a sublease, assignment or other transfer pursuant to this Section 22(b), Tenant shall provide to Landlord reasonable evidence that such transaction satisfies the requirements of this Section 22(b). If confidentiality obligations or the requirements of securities or other laws preclude the disclosure of such transaction prior to its closing, then Tenant shall provide such evidence to Landlord within ten (10) business days after the closing of such transaction. (c) TRANSFER NOTICE. If Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, then at least ten (10) days prior to the date when Tenant desires the Transfer to be effective (the "Transfer Date"), Tenant agrees to give Landlord a written notice (the "Transfer Notice"), stating the name, address and business of the proposed assignee, sublessee, encumbrance holder, or other transferee (sometimes referred to hereinafter as "Transferee"), reasonable information (including references) concerning the ownership, and financial condition of the proposed Transferee, the Transfer Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed Transferee, and the consideration and all other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, all in such detail as Landlord may reasonably require. Within ten (10) days of Landlord's receipt of any Transfer Notice (including all the information described above), and Landlord will elect in writing to do one of the following (i) consent to the proposed Transfer; or (ii) refuse such consent, which refusal shall be on reasonable grounds (set forth in reasonable detail in such notice of election). (d) EXCESS RENT. In the event of any Transfer, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, fifty percent (50%) of all sums and other consideration payable to and for the benefit of Tenant by the Transferee assignee on account of the Transfer, after recovery of Tenant's Re-Leasing Costs (as defined below), as and when such sums and other consideration are due and payable by the Transferee (or, if Landlord so requires, and without any release of Tenant's liability for the same, Tenant agrees to instruct the Transferee to pay such sums and other consideration directly to Landlord). If for any proposed sublease Tenant receives Rent or other consideration, either initially or over the term of the sublease, in excess of the Rent fairly allocable to the portion of the Building which is subleased based on rentable square footage, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord as additional rent fifty percent (50%) of the excess of each such payment of Rent or other consideration received by Tenant, after recovery of Tenant's Re-Leasing Costs (as defined below), within ten (10) days after its receipt. In calculating excess Rent or other consideration which may be payable to Landlord under this subsection, Tenant will be entitled to deduct commercially reasonable third party brokerage commissions, transaction costs, tenant improvement costs or allowances funded by Tenant, tenant incentives, rental abatement or free rent awarded or granted to the Transferee, attorneys' fees and other amounts reasonably and actually paid by Tenant to third parties in connection with such assignment or subletting ("Tenant's Re-Leasing Costs") if acceptable written evidence of such expenditures is provided to Landlord. (e) MISCELLANEOUS. Any Transferee of Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a true copy of the fully executed instrument of assignment, sublease, transfer or hypothecation, and, in the case of an assignment, the delivery to Landlord of an agreement executed by the Transferee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, whereby the Transferee assumes and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Lease and to perform all of the obligations of Tenant hereunder. -19- (f) NO RELEASE. No Transfer (or non-transfer permitted pursuant to Section 22(b) above), whether or not permitted, nor Landlord's consent thereto, shall operate to release Tenant from liability under this Lease. Tenant shall remain jointly and severally liable under this Lease, along with any Transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Emulex Design & Manufacturing Corporation, as the assigning Tenant, and Emulex Corporation, as the guarantor of this Lease, shall be released from any further obligations and/or liability which first arise under this Lease from and after the effective date of any assignment of the Lease to a Transferee if all of the following are met in connection with such assignment: (i) The Transferee has a net worth at the time of such assignment of at least Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000) as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (ii) The Transferee executes and delivers to Landlord an assumption of this Lease in accordance with Section 22(e) above. (g) COSTS. If Tenant requests Landlord's consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable out-of-pocket legal and out-of-pocket administrative costs incurred in connection with such request. (h) LANDLORD COOPERATION. The Landlord agrees to reasonable cooperate with the Tenant in making arrangements for a Transferee in accordance with this Section 22. Should Tenant make a written request to Landlord requesting Landlord to offer an assignment of this Lease on the open market, Landlord shall do so by listing the Premises with a broker or brokers and using reasonable efforts to engage a Transferee, and Tenant shall pay to the Landlord an amount equal to one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the sum of the commission to such broker and the actual reasonable expenses of the Landlord, provided, however, that Landlord's reimbursable expenses (other than commissions due) shall not exceed twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). Should an assignment of this Lease not be executed by an assignee within one hundred eighty (180) days of such a request by Tenant, then Tenant shall have the option to require the Landlord to discontinue the listing of the Premises, and to discontinue efforts by the Landlord to engage a Transferee, and the obligations of Tenant for such efforts shall be limited to paying the actual reasonable expenses of the Landlord therefore in a total payment amount not to exceed any payment due to real estate brokers, plus twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). 23. SUBORDINATION. (a) CURRENT LIENHOLDERS. No later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement ("SNDA") substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "E", or on another commercially reasonable form required by the Superior Mortgagee, from any mortgage holders or lien holders (each, a "SUPERIOR MORTGAGEE") then in existence. (A "SUPERIOR MORTGAGE" shall mean a lien encumbering the Premises held by a Superior Mortgagee, and any documents evidencing the debt secured by such lien.) Any SNDAs executed pursuant to this Section 22 shall subordinate this Lease to the Superior Mortgage and include the Superior Mortgagee's agreement to not disturb Tenant for so long as Tenant has not committed a Default under this Lease. (b) FUTURE LIENS. Tenant agrees to subordinate this Lease and its interest in the Premises and the Land to the lien of any Superior Mortgagee who comes into existence at any time prior to the expiration of the Term, provided that such subordination is conditioned upon the Superior Mortgagee's delivery to Tenant of an executed SNDA substantially in the form of Exhibit "E", or on another commercially reasonable form required by the Superior Mortgagee. (c) ATTORNMENT. Subject to the provisions of this Section, in the event of any foreclosure of any or all mortgages or deeds of trust encumbering the Premises by trustee's sale, voluntary agreement, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by the commencement of any judicial action seeking foreclosure, Tenant, at the request of the then landlord under this Lease, shall attorn to and recognize the beneficiary or purchaser at the foreclosure sale, as Tenant's landlord under this Lease, and Tenant agrees to execute and deliver at -20- any time upon request of such ground or underlying lessor, beneficiary, purchaser, or their successors, any commercially reasonable instrument evidencing such attornment that does not amend Tenant's rights under this Lease. 24. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. (a) TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS. Within ten (10) business days following any written request which Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord a statement, in a form substantially similar to the form of Exhibit "F-1" attached hereto or as may reasonably be required by a Superior Mortgagee, certifying to Tenant's actual knowledge (subject to any applicable exceptions set forth in such statement): (i) the Commencement Date of this Lease; (ii) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (iii) the date to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (iv) that, to the best of Tenant's knowledge, there are no current Defaults under this Lease by either Landlord except as specified in Tenant's statement; and (v) such other matters reasonably requested by Landlord. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section 24 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or any interest therein. (b) TENANT'S FAILURE TO DELIVER. Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time will be conclusive upon Tenant (i) that the statement as submitted is correct without modification, and this Lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord, (ii) that there are no uncured Defaults in Landlord's performance, and (iii) that not more than one (1) month's rent has been paid in advance. Without limiting the foregoing, if Tenant fails to deliver any such statement within such ten (10) business day period, Landlord may deliver to Tenant an additional request for such statement and Tenant's failure to deliver such statement to Landlord within five (5) business days after delivery of such additional request will constitute a Default under this Lease. (c) LANDLORD'S OBLIGATIONS. No more than once per calendar year (unless requested in connection with an assignment, sublease or other transfer of Tenant's interest in the Lease), within ten (10) business days following any written request from Tenant, Landlord agrees to execute and deliver to Tenant a statement, in a form substantially similar to the form of Exhibit "F-2" attached hereto, certifying to Landlord's actual knowledge (subject to any applicable exceptions set forth in such statement): (i) the Commencement Date of this Lease; (ii) the fact that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (iii) the date to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (iv) whether Landlord has delivered to Tenant a notice of default which has not been fully cured by Tenant; and (v) whether, in Landlord's actual knowledge, without inquiry or investigation, there exists any event or condition which with the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute a Default by Tenant under this Lease. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section 24(c) may be relied upon by any prospective Transferee, lender, purchaser and/or investor of any interest in Tenant or its interest under this Lease. (d) LANDLORD'S FAILURE TO DELIVER. If Landlord fails to deliver any such statement within such ten (10) business day period, Tenant may deliver to Landlord an additional request for such statement and Landlord's failure to deliver such statement to Tenant within five (5) business days after delivery of such additional request will (A) be conclusive upon Landlord (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect, (ii) that not more than one (1) month's rent has been paid in advance; (iii) that there are no uncured defaults that have been the subject of a written notice by Landlord; and (iv) that Landlord has no actual knowledge of any event or condition which with the giving of notice or the passage of time would constitute a Default by Tenant under this Lease; and (B) cause Landlord to be liable for and Landlord shall pay to Tenant upon demand Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) per day for each day beyond the expiration of the foregoing second five (5) business day period that Landlord delays in delivering the statement to Tenant. -21- 25. WAIVER. The waiver by either party of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained will not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent or any other payment hereunder by Landlord will not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay only that portion of the Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Monthly Base Rent and additional rent or other sum then due will be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment of such Rent or other amount due, nor will any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of such installment or other amount or pursue any other remedy provided in this Lease. The consent or approval of Landlord to or of any act by Tenant requiring Landlord's consent or approval will not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar acts by Tenant. 26. PARKING. So long as this Lease is in effect, Landlord grants to Tenant and its employees, agents, customers, visitors, officers, contractors, licensees and invitees the exclusive right to use all parking spaces located on the Land. Landlord shall not reduce the number of parking stalls on the Land below the amount present on the Effective Date. 27. FORCE MAJEURE. If either Landlord or Tenant is delayed, hindered in or prevented from the performance of any act required under this Lease by reason of an unusual and unforeseeable event (each a "Force Majeure Event") not within the reasonable control of the party delayed in performing work or doing acts required under the provisions of this Lease, then performance of such act will be excused for the period of the delay and the period for the performance of any such act will be extended for a period equivalent to the period of such delay (a or "Force Majeure Delay"). Force Majeure Events include, but are not limited to, strikes, lock-outs, labor troubles, inability to procure standard materials, restrictive governmental laws, regulations or orders or governmental action or inaction (including failure, refusal or delay in issuing permits, approvals and/or authorizations which is not the result of the action or inaction of the party claiming such delay), riots, civil unrest or insurrection, war, terrorism, bioterrorism, fire, earthquake, flood or other natural disaster, unusual and unforeseeable delay which results from an interruption of any public utilities (e.g., electricity, gas, water, telephone) including, without limitation, utility service provider initiated "brown-outs" or "black-outs". In no event shall the inability to pay or other financial matter be considered a Force Majeure Event. Under no circumstances shall the due date for the payment of Rent or other amounts due under this Lease, or the obligation to pay Rent or other amounts due under this Lease, be delayed or otherwise affected by a Force Majeure Event. 28. SIGNS. Tenant shall be permitted to install an identification sign on each floor of the Premises in the elevator lobby of such floor as well as adjacent to Tenant's entry door on any other floors of the Premises. In addition, Tenant shall be permitted to place Tenant's name, the name of each of Tenant's professionals and other employees, and the name(s) of any Transferees or successors of Tenant and their professionals and employees on the directory board in the Building's lobby as well as any other directories on the Land or any project of which the Building may be a part. During the Term of this Lease (including all Extension Terms), Tenant shall have the exclusive right to install building top and eyebrow signage on the exterior Building in accordance with applicable Laws. Upon the termination of the Lease, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, Tenant shall remove its building top signage from the Building and repair any damage caused by such removal. 29. QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that upon Tenant paying the Rent required under this Lease and paying all other charges and performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant's part to be observed and performed under this Lease, Tenant may peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises in accordance with this Lease without hindrance or molestation by Landlord or its employees or agents. -22- 30. EXTENSION OPTIONS. (a) Subject to the terms of this Section 30, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two (2) options (the "Extension Option(s)") to extend the Term of this Lease with respect to the entire Premises for five (5) years per Extension Option (each, an "Option Term"), on the same terms, covenants and conditions as provided for in this Lease during the initial Term, except that Monthly Base Rent shall be established based upon the "fair market rental rate" for the Premises for each Option Term as defined and determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 30 below. (In addition to the Monthly Base Rent, additional rent shall be payable throughout each Option Term as provided in this Lease.) An Extension Option may be exercised by Tenant, and Transferee of Tenant or any of the parties described in Section 30(b) below. (b) An Extension Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice ("Extension Notice") delivered by Tenant to Landlord no later than six (6) full calendar months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease term or the first Option Term, as applicable. Once an Extension Notice is delivered, then the extension of this Lease shall be binding. (c) The term "fair market rental rate" as used in this Section 30 shall mean the annual amount per rentable square foot, which as of the date of determination is projected for and throughout the Option Term to be acceptable to a willing, non-equity, non-renewal tenant of credit worthiness comparable to Tenant, and a willing landlord of a comparable building of similar physical characteristics within the North Creek/Canyon Park/Totem Lake submarket of Bothell, Washington (the "Comparison Market"), in an arm's length transaction, leasing an entire building, comparable in quality as the Premises, taking into account the triple net nature of the Lease, the age and layout of the existing improvements in the Premises and comparison leases and other items that professional real estate brokers customarily consider, including, but not limited to, rental rates, office space availability, tenant size and creditworthiness, tenant improvement allowances, abatements, free rent, concessions, operating expenses and other additional rent charges and allowance, and any other lease considerations, if any, then being charged or granted by Landlord or the lessors of such similar office buildings. (d) Landlord shall provide written notice of Landlord's determination of the fair market rental rate ("Landlord's Estimate") within thirty (30) days following the exercise by Tenant of the applicable Extension Option. Tenant shall have thirty (30) days ("Tenant's Review Period") after receipt of Landlord's notice of Landlord's Estimate within which to accept such amount or to object thereto in writing. Failure of Tenant to so object to Landlord's Estimate in writing within Tenant's Review Period shall conclusively be deemed Tenant's objection thereto. If Tenant objects to or is deemed to have objected to the Landlord's Estimate, Landlord and Tenant will meet to present and discuss their individual determinations of the fair market rental rate for the Premises under the parameters set forth in Section 30(c) above and shall diligently and in good faith attempt to negotiate a rental rate on the basis of such individual determinations. Such meeting shall occur no later than ten (10) business days after Tenant objects to, or is deemed to have objected to, Landlord's Estimate. The Parties shall each provide the other with such supporting information and documentation as they deem appropriate. At such meeting if Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the fair market rental rate, they shall each submit to the other their respective best and final offer ("Final Offer") as to the fair market rental rate. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on such fair market rental rate within five (5) business days following such a meeting (the "Outside Agreement Date"), then each party's determination shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the Section 33(n) below, subject to the provision so of this Section 30(d). For ten (10) business days after the Outside Agreement Date, Landlord and Tenant shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to select a mutually acceptable independent MAI appraiser or broker ("Appraiser") who has been active over the five-year period ending on the date of such appointment in appraising buildings (or in the case of a broker, commercial leasing) in the Comparison Market with comparable physical characteristics to the Building and which has not been engaged by Landlord, Tenant or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate thereof within the last three (3) years. If Landlord and Tenant are not able to agree upon a mutually acceptable Appraiser pursuant to the preceding sentence, then either Landlord or Tenant may petition the Seattle, Washington office of JAMS to appoint an Appraiser satisfying the requirements of the previous sentence. The method of arbitration shall be that known as the "baseball" type of -23- arbitration: Each party shall submit to the Appraiser its Final Offer made pursuant to this Section 30(d) in advance of the hearing. The Appraiser shall be limited to awarding only one or the other of the two figures submitted. Landlord and Tenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Monthly Base Rent for the Option Term to be determined at least thirty (30) days prior to the start of the Option Term. The Appraiser's determination of the fair market rental rate shall be binding on the parties. 31. ROOFTOP COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, and at Tenant's sole expense, during the Term of this Lease (including any Extension Terms) including without limitation, Section 12, Landlord's approval of Tenant's plans, and subject to all applicable Laws, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to install, maintain and operate satellite and/or microwave dishes and/or antennae, and related communications equipment ("Communication Equipment") on the roof of the Building. Use of the roof top space shall be at no charge to Tenant during the Term. Tenant reserves the right to run cabling, conduit or wiring across the roof of the Building to and through appropriate conduit risers that will terminate within the Premises as set forth in plans and specifications.

EXHIBIT "A" -1- EXHIBIT "B" WORK LETTER AGREEMENT (LANDLORD BUILD W/ALLOWANCE) This WORK LETTER AGREEMENT ("Work Letter Agreement") is entered into as of the ___ day of August, 2005, between 24000 DEVELOPMENT LLC, a Washington limited liability company ("Landlord"), and EMULEX DESIGN & MANUFACTURING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Tenant"), with reference to the following recitals: A. Concurrently with the execution of this Work Letter Agreement, Landlord and Tenant have entered into a lease (the "Lease") covering certain premises ("Premises") more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached to the Lease. All terms not defined herein have the same meaning as set forth in the Lease. To the extent applicable, the provisions of the Lease are incorporated herein by this reference. B. In order to induce Tenant to enter into the Lease and in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows: 1. PREPARATION OF CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS. (a) Selection of Architect and Engineers. After the execution of this Lease, Landlord shall engage JPC Architects, P.L.L.C. ("Architect") to prepare the Space Plan (defined below) for the Tenant Improvements (defined below). With consultation from Tenant and Architect, Landlord shall select and retain engineering consultants (the "Engineers") to prepare the Working Drawings (defined below), which shall be consistent with the Approved Space Plan and include without limitation all plans and engineering working drawings relating to the structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, life/safety, and sprinkler work in connection with the Tenant Improvements. Prior to the execution of any agreement engaging the Architect or any of the Engineers, Landlord shall submit such agreement to Tenant for Tenant's review, comment and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, the provisions of such contracts pertaining to the recourse of Landlord against Architect and Engineers shall be subject to Tenant's approval to be exercised in Tenant's sole and absolute good faith discretion. Landlord may not enter into an agreement with Architect or any of the Engineers unless such agreement has been approved in writing by Tenant pursuant to this Section. Landlord shall not amend any contract between Landlord and the Architect or the Engineers in such a manner that would adversely affect Tenant's recourse against Architect or the Engineers under the Design and Construction Warranties (defined below) to be assigned to Tenant pursuant to Section 4(d) of this Work Letter Agreement, or increase the hourly rates charged by Architect or the Engineers in performing the Landlord's Work. (b) Space Plan. On or before the date therefor specified in the Work Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit "B-1" ("Work Schedule"), Architect shall prepare and deliver to Landlord and Tenant for their respective approval four (4) copies of the space plan for all Tenant Improvements in the Premises ("Space Plan"), which Space Plan shall be prepared consistent with Tenant's directions and other instructions to Architect and further shall reflect a layout and description of all offices, rooms and other partitions, their intended use, and the equipment to be contained therein. Landlord or Tenant may request reasonable clarification or more specific drawings reasonably required for special use items not included in the Space Plan. Landlord or Tenant shall, no later than the deadline specified in the Work Schedule, (i) approve the Space Plan, or (ii) approve the Space Plan subject to specified conditions to be complied with in connection with the Working Drawings (defined below). Landlord and Tenant shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any disputes that may arise between Landlord and Tenant regarding any conditions imposed pursuant to subpart (ii) of this Section 1(b). The Space Plan, as approved by Landlord and Tenant pursuant to this Section 1(b) (including the revisions required in EXHIBIT "B" -1- connection with a conditional approval), shall be referred to in this Work Letter Agreement as the "Approved Space Plan." (c) Working Drawings. Based upon the Approved Space Plan, by the date specified in the Work Schedule, Landlord shall cause the Engineers to complete and deliver to Tenant for Tenant's approval, two (2) copies of complete, fully coordinated architectural and (to the extent required) structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing working drawings and specifications for the Tenant Improvements for the Premises in a form which is sufficiently complete to allow the Contractor and all subcontractors to bid on the work shown therein and to obtain all applicable Permits (defined below) therefor (collectively, the "Working Drawings"). The Working Drawings shall be consistent with the Approved Space Plan. Tenant shall, by the date specified in the Work Schedule, either (i) approve the Working Drawings, (ii) approve the Working Drawings subject to specified conditions to be satisfied by Landlord prior to submission of the same by Landlord for the Permits, or (iii) disapprove and return the same to Landlord with required revisions. If Tenant disapproves the Working Drawings, within three (3) business days of receipt of such disapproval, Landlord shall cause the Architect to make all changes thereto required to satisfy Tenant's required revisions and shall resubmit to Landlord such revised Working Drawings, and Landlord shall, within three (3) business days after Tenant receives such resubmitted Working Drawings, approve, approve with conditions, or disapprove the resubmitted Working Drawings, with the foregoing procedure to be repeated until the Working Drawings are ultimately approved by Tenant. The Working Drawings, as approved by Tenant pursuant to this Section 1(c) shall be referred to in this Work Letter Agreement as the "Approved Working Drawings." Landlord shall cause the process of preparing and approving the Working Drawings to be completed by such a time that will not delay Landlord's submission of the bid materials and Approved Working Drawings to the Bidding Contractors with sufficient time for such Bidding Contractors to prepare bids for the construction of the Tenant Improvements, and for Landlord to review, analyze and deliver to Tenant a detailed written recommendation regarding the bids of the Bidding Contractors, by no later than September 27, 2005. (d) Changes in Approved Working Drawings. In the event Tenant desires to change any set of Approved Working Drawings, Tenant shall deliver a notice (a "Drawing Change Notice") of such proposed change to Landlord, which Drawing Change Notice shall set forth in detail all changes (the "Tenant Changes") Tenant desires to make to the Approved Working Drawings. To the extent that drawings or depictions of the proposed Tenant Changes are reasonably required by Landlord, then Tenant shall instruct Architect and/or the Engineers, as may be applicable, to prepare drawings setting forth in reasonable detail the proposed Tenant Changes. Landlord shall, within three (3) business days following Landlord's receipt of any Drawing Change Notice either: (i) approve the Tenant Changes in question, or (ii) disapprove such Tenant Changes and deliver a notice to Tenant specifying in reasonably sufficient detail the reasons for Landlord's disapproval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Landlord may not withhold its consent to Tenant Changes where Tenant, subject to funding from any remaining unspent portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, agrees to bear the increased cost of the construction of the Tenant Improvements directly resulting from the Tenant Changes. If the Contractor has already been engaged by Landlord at the time Tenant requests a Tenant Change, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a change order to the construction contract between Landlord and the Contractor consistent with the Tenant Change upon the best possible terms and conditions for the Tenant. Subject to funding from any remaining unspent portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, Tenant shall bear (A) the cost of the Architect and Engineers incurred as a result of revising the Approved Working Drawings to effect any Tenant Change, and (B) the cost of construction of the Tenant Improvements that are the subject of the Tenant Change. (e) Tenant Improvements; Standards for Approval. The term "Tenant Improvements" means all initial improvements, fixtures and equipment to be permanently affixed to the Premises pursuant to this Work Letter Agreement. The term "Landlord's Work" shall mean and refer to the work and activities performed by, or caused to be performed by, Landlord in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements pursuant to this Work Letter Agreement. Except as provided otherwise herein, each time Landlord or Tenant is granted the right under this Work Letter Agreement to review, consent or approve the Space Plan, the Working Drawings, any part or component thereof, or any proposed Tenant Change (each such approval is referred to herein as a "Consent"), such Consent shall not be not be withheld or EXHIBIT "B" -2- conditioned unless the proposed improvements (i) would unduly burden the Building's operating systems or (ii) would fail to comply with applicable laws, codes, ordinances or regulations. (f) Permits. By no later than the date specified in the Work Schedule, Landlord shall cause the Engineers to prepare updated versions of the Space Plans containing sufficient information to submit to the City of Bothell to apply for and obtain the Permits. Such plans and drawings shall be referred to in this Work Letter Agreement as the "Permit Drawings." By no later than the date specified in the Work Schedule, Landlord shall submit to the appropriate governmental entities the Approved Space Plans (including such additional reasonable detail as is customarily required by the applicable governmental entities) and Landlord shall otherwise apply for all applicable building and other permits and approvals (collectively, "Permits") necessary or required for the Contractor to commence, perform and fully complete the construction of the Tenant Improvements (and to permit Tenant to legally occupy the Premises). If the governmental entities reviewing the applications for permits and related materials require any revisions to the Permit Drawings, Landlord shall cause such revisions to be made within five (5) business days and delivered to Tenant for its approval in accordance with the same procedures for Tenant's review and approval of the Working Drawings in accordance with Section 1(c) above. Revisions to the Permit Drawings made in connection with responding to the request of a governmental agency pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not constitute a Tenant Change, notwithstanding any provision of this Work Letter to the contrary. In addition to its covenants in the preceding sentence, Landlord shall use good faith, commercially reasonable and diligent efforts to cause all of the Permits to be fully issued (in "ready to issue" form) on or before the date specified therefor in the Work Schedule. Neither Landlord nor any (i) Landlord Party shall have any obligation or liability to Tenant if any Permit (including, without limitation, any building permit, certificate of occupancy, or equivalent) is not timely issued to Landlord, provided that Landlord has applied for such Permits in accordance with the Work Schedule, (ii) Landlord has exercised good faith, commercially reasonable and diligent efforts to cause the Permits to be issued in accordance with the Work Schedule, and (iii) the delay in the issuance of the Permits has not been caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any Landlord Parties. As used herein, "Landlord Party" shall mean Landlord and its partners, advisors, lenders and each of their respective officers, managers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, architects, engineers, successors and assigns. 2. COST OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS. (a) Allocation of Costs. Landlord shall bear all Tenant Improvement Costs (defined below) to the extent that the total Tenant Improvement Costs do not exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance set forth in Section 1(l) of the Lease (as the same may be increased pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease). Tenant shall bear all Tenant Improvement Costs in excess of the Tenant Improvement Allowance ("Excess Costs") in accordance with the provisions of this Work Letter Agreement. (b) Payment of Excess Costs by Tenant. Excess Costs shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord, on a proportionate basis promptly upon request from Landlord, as Landlord incurs such costs after the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been paid in full by Landlord in accordance with this Work Letter Agreement. Tenant shall pay Landlord for Excess Costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements pursuant to this Section 2(b) within five (5) business days following Landlord's request therefor, which request shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation (e.g., as set forth on invoices paid or payable by Landlord as of such date). Notwithstanding anything in this Work Letter Agreement or the Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to discontinue its performance of the Landlord's Work until such time as Tenant complies with the requirements of this Section 2(b). If Tenant fails to pay Excess Costs when due hereunder, the unpaid Excess Costs shall accrue interest from the due date at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, simple interest. EXHIBIT "B" -3- (c) Disbursement of Tenant Improvement Allowance. (i) Definition of Tenant Improvement Costs. As used herein, "Tenant Improvement Costs" shall mean the actual, out-of-pocket costs incurred by Landlord in performing the Landlord's Work, preparing the Space Plan and Working Drawings and obtaining the Permits. (ii) Exclusions from Tenant Improvement Costs. Notwithstanding Section 2(c)(i) above or any other provision of the Lease or this Work Letter Agreement to the contrary, Tenant Improvement Costs shall not include any of the following costs and expenses (collectively, the "Excluded Costs"): (A) costs for the Base Building Work; (B) costs incurred in the inspection, testing, removal, abatement or remediation of Hazardous Materials to the extent that such costs are incurred by Landlord in the performance of Landlord's obligations under the Lease; (C) any breaches of Landlord's covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Lease or this Work Letter Agreement; (D) the cost of work performed prior to the execution of the Lease or which is not authorized by the Lease or this Work Letter Agreement; (E) costs that are recovered or are reasonably recoverable from a third party (e.g., insurers, warrantors or tortfeasors); (F) construction management fees incurred by Landlord or any party acting on behalf of Landlord in excess of the lesser of (1) an arms' length rate or (2) five percent (5%) of the Tenant Improvement Costs; and (G) profit and overhead charges paid to Landlord or any person controlled by, controlling or under common control with Landlord. The Excluded Costs shall be borne by Landlord (or, as may be applicable, Contractor or any other third party) at its sole cost and expense, without reimbursement from the Tenant Improvement Allowance. (iii) Disbursement. Landlord shall have the right to disburse the Tenant Improvement Allowance for such Tenant Improvement Costs in accordance with the provisions of this Work Letter Agreement and in such order as Landlord shall determine; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Work Letter Agreement to the contrary, Landlord shall not be authorized to incur, or pay any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance, overtime wages or like changes to contractor (or any subcontractors) in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements, unless such overtime has been authorized by Tenant in writing prior to being incurred, which authorization may be given or withheld in Tenant's sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall have the right to apply any portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance to Tenant's actual, out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and reimbursable expenses, where applicable) of Tenant's Agents (defined below), including without limitation, the following types of fees, costs and expenses: (A) Tenant's third-party construction manager, (B) purchasing and installing cabling, conduits and/or data or telecommunications wiring, (C) the design, construction and installation of Tenant's signage, (D) Tenant's security system and related equipment and the installation thereof, (E) relocation and moving costs in connection with Tenant's relocation and move-in to the Premises, (F) movable and built-in furniture, (G) trade fixtures and other fixtures, (H) modifications or improvements to the landscaping of the Premises, (I) interior and landscape design services, (J) Tenant's enforcement of the Design and Construction Warranties against Architect, the Engineers and/or the Contractor (and any of Contractor's subcontractors or suppliers), and (K) other interior decorations intended to be used or installed by Tenant at the Premises.

In the event that, (1) Tenant desires Landlord to disburse the Tenant Improvement Allowance for Tenant Improvement Costs payable directly by Tenant and (2) in Landlord's commercially reasonable judgment, the Tenant Improvement Allowance is sufficient to cover the (a) amount of the Tenant Improvement Costs to be incurred by Landlord and (b) the amounts desired to be so disbursed by Tenant, Landlord shall make such disbursements to Tenant pursuant to this Section 2(c)(iii).

Landlord's payment of such amounts shall not be deemed Landlord's approval or acceptance of the work furnished (or materials supplied, if any) as set forth in Tenant's payment request. 3.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Tenant has agreed to subordinate its interest in the Lease to the lien of the Deed of Trust so long as, among other things, Lender agrees not to disturb Tenant's possession of the portion of the Premises covered by the Lease (the "Demised Premises"). NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Subordination. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Lease, and the rights of Tenant in, to and under the Lease and the Demised Premises, are hereby subjected and subordinated to the lien of the Deed of Trust, and to any renewal, substitution, extension, modification or replacement thereof. EXHIBIT "E" -1- 2. Tenant Not To Be Disturbed. So long as Tenant is not in default (beyond any period given Tenant by the terms of the Lease to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, (a) Tenant's possession of the Demised Premises, and its rights and privileges under the Lease shall not be diminished or interfered with by Lender, and (b) Lender will not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding foreclosing the Deed of Trust unless such joinder is necessary to foreclose such Deed of Trust and then only for such purpose and not for the purpose of terminating the Lease. Lender represents and warrants that it has received and reviewed a copy of the Lease. 3. Tenant to Attorn To Lender. If the Premises shall be sold by reason of foreclosure (whether judicial or non judicial) or other proceedings brought to enforce the Deed of Trust, or the Premises shall be transferred by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the then owner of the Premises, who shall succeed to the rights and duties of the Landlord, and Tenant for the balance of the term thereof. Tenant shall attorn to Lender or any other such owner as its Landlord, said attornment to be effective and self operative without the execution of further instruments; provided, however, that Lender or any such other owner shall not be (a) personally liable for any act or omission of Landlord or any prior landlord which cannot be cured; (b) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against Landlord or any prior landlord except to the extent of Tenant's right to offsets set forth in the Lease; (c) required or obligated to credit Tenant with any rent or additional rent for any rental period beyond the then current month which Tenant might have paid Landlord or any prior landlord, excluding any reconciliations as provided for in the Lease; or (d) liable for the return of any security deposit unless and only to the extent such security deposit shall have been actually received by Lender. Tenant hereby agrees that upon the occurrence of any default under the Loan or the documents evidencing or securing the same, and in the event of a demand on Tenant by Lender, or its successors and assigns, for the payment to Lender or its successors and assigns of the rent due under the Lease, Tenant will pay said rent to Lender and Landlord hereby consents to said payment and releases Tenant from any and all liability, damages, or claims in connection with any such payment or payments. Landlord agrees that receipt by Tenant of any such demand shall be conclusive evidence of the right of Lender to the receipt of said rental payments. Tenant shall be under no obligation to pay rent to Lender or any such other owner until Tenant receives written notice from Lender or any such other owner. 4. Notice of Default. If Landlord is in material default of one or more of its obligations under the Lease, Tenant agrees to give written notice thereof to Lender. Tenant further agrees that Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default within thirty (30) days or if such default cannot be cured within that time, then such additional time as may be reasonably required to complete such cure, provided, that Lender commences such cure during the initial thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion. 5. Notice of Discharge. Landlord shall give notice to Tenant of the reconveyance or other release of the Deed of Trust within thirty (30) days after the date the reconveyance or other release is recorded. 6. Limitation. This Agreement shall not apply to any equipment, inventory, merchandise, furniture, fixtures or other personal property owned or leased by Tenant which is now or hereafter placed or installed on the Demised Premises, and Tenant shall have the full right to remove said property at any time during or at the expiration of the Lease term. 7. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder must be in writing and may be given by personal delivery (including delivery by overnight courier or an EXHIBIT "E" -2- express mailing service) or by mail, if sent by registered or certified mail, to the parties at their addresses set forth above. The addresses to which notices shall be sent may be changed by any party by notice given pursuant to this paragraph. 8. Successors And Assigns. This Agreement and each and every covenant, agreement and other provision hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their representatives, successors and assigns. 9. Miscellaneous. This Agreement may not be modified other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the parties hereto or by their respective successors in interest. 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 Lender. 10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts which together shall constitute but one and the same original.
