The Commencement Date, the date upon which the Term of this Lease shall end unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Rentable Square Feet in the Premises and Tenant's Percentage as set forth in Section 1, shall be specified in a Memorandum of Lease Terms, which shall be in the form of Exhibit "C," attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference ("Memorandum of Lease Terms"), and shall be executed by Tenant as soon as practicable after Landlord delivers or tenders possession of the Premises to Tenant. The terms set forth in the Memorandum of Lease Terms shall be binding upon Tenant, unless Tenant objects to the Memorandum of Lease Terms in a writing served upon Landlord within five (5) business days of Tenant's receipt of the Memorandum of Lease Terms.

4.           POSSESSION

Landlord shall deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on April 1, 2019, contingent on the following occurring on or prior to April 1, 2019: (a) full execution of this Lease; (b) Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of Tenant’s insurance certificate; and (c) Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of the Letter of Credit.  Prior to delivery of possession of the Premises, Landlord shall have completed the work to cause the Premises to be in “White Box” condition.  Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that Tenant has elected to perform the Courtyard Work and that the Tenant Improvement Allowance has increased to compensate Tenant for performing the Courtyard Work. The commencement of the Term of the Lease shall commence upon the Commencement Date.

5.           ANNUAL BASIC RENT

(a)          Tenant shall pay Landlord as consideration for the use and enjoyment of the Premises the Annual Basic Rent designated in Section 1(k) (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided and except for the months when Annual Basic Rent is abated) in twelve (12) equal monthly installments, except as may be specified to the contrary in Subsection 1(k), each in advance on the first day of each calendar month during the Term commencing on the Commencement Date.  If the Term of this Lease commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month or ends on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the Rent for such period shall be prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day month.  In addition to the Annual Basic Rent, Tenant agrees to pay as Additional Rent the amount of Rent adjustments and other charges required by this Lease.  Other charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder, including, without limitation, payments for Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes, insurance, and repairs, shall be considered "Additional Rent" for purposes of this Lease.  The term "Rent" as used in this Lease shall mean Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent and all other amounts payable by Tenant pursuant to this Lease.  When no other time is stated herein for payment, payment of any amount due from Tenant to Landlord hereunder shall be made within thirty (30) days after Tenant's receipt of Landlord's invoice or statement therefor and all other payments are to be made prior to delinquency.  All Rent shall be paid to Landlord, without prior demand and without any deduction or offset (except as otherwise provided in Section 24(g) of this Lease and Section 6.2 of the Work Letter) in lawful money of the United States of America, at the address designated in Section 1(b) hereof or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.

(b)          If Tenant fails to pay any installment of Rent or any other payment for which Tenant is obligated under this Lease when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any interest assessed on account of such late payment and if such late payment was to be paid to Landlord, such late amount shall accrue interest as Additional Rent on such

delinquent amount at the lesser of the then prevailing prime rate of Bank of America, or if not available, a similar financial institution ("Prime Rate") plus three (3) percentage points or the maximum rate permitted by law (the “Interest Rate”) from the date such amount became due until such amount is paid (if such payment was due to a third party other than Landlord, Tenant shall be liable to pay for any late charge or interest assessed).  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT A LATE PAYMENT MAY CAUSE LANDLORD TO INCUR COSTS AND OTHER DAMAGE, THE EXACT AMOUNT OF WHICH WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN AND THAT SUCH INTEREST REPRESENTS A FAIR AND REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DETRIMENT THAT LANDLORD WILL SUFFER BY REASON OF LATE PAYMENT BY TENANT.  Acceptance of any such interest shall 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 hereunder or at law.

(c)          If any payment of rent made by check, draft or money order is returned to Landlord due to insufficient funds, or otherwise, Landlord shall have the right, at any time thereafter, to require Tenant to make all subsequent payments of Rent by cashier's or certified check.  Any payment returned to Landlord shall be subject to a handling charge of $50.00.

Landlord will deliver to Tenant Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes which it reasonably anticipates will be paid or incurred for the ensuing calendar or fiscal year, as Landlord may determine, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the estimated amount of such expenses for such year in equal monthly installments during such year with the installments of Base Monthly Rent. Until a new estimate statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Monthly Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant.  Landlord reserves the right to revise such estimate from time to time.  If Landlord receives a refund of any Real Property Taxes for any calendar year during the Term for which Tenant paid Additional Rent on account of such Real Property Taxes, Landlord shall pay to Tenant, or credit against subsequent payments of Rent due hereunder, an amount equal to Tenant’s Percentage of the refund, net of any reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in achieving such refund; provided, however, if this Lease shall have expired or is otherwise terminated, Landlord shall refund in cash any such refund or credit due to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of such refund or its receipt of such credit against future Real Property Taxes. Landlord’s obligation to so refund Tenant for any such refund or credit of Real Property Taxes shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.

(c)          Landlord shall furnish to Tenant following the end of the applicable calendar year a statement setting forth (i) the amount of such expenses paid or incurred during the just ended calendar year which shall state on a reasonably detailed line-item basis the Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes incurred or accrued and Landlord’s gross-up calculations (if any), and explanation of any capital item included in Operating Expenses (including the applicable amortization period used by Landlord), and (ii) the amount that Tenant has paid to Landlord for credit against such expenses for such period. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give to Tenant such statement within 150 days following the end of the applicable calendar year. If Tenant shall have paid more than its obligation for such expenses for the stated period, Landlord shall, at its election, either (i) credit the amount of such overpayment toward the next ensuing payment or payments of Additional Rent that would otherwise be due or (ii) concurrently with Landlord’s delivery of the statement, refund in cash to Tenant the amount of such overpayment. If such year-end statement shall show that Tenant did not pay its obligation for such expenses in full, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days from Landlord’s billing of same to Tenant. The provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

(d)          Even though the Term shall have expired and Tenant shall have vacated the Premises, when the final determination of actual annual Operating Expenses and/or of annual Real Property Taxes, for the year in which this Lease terminates are determined, Tenant shall immediately pay any amounts owed applicable to the time during

the Term or any additional time during which Tenant occupied the Premises.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenant’s Percentage of any Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes attributable to any calendar year which are first billed to Tenant more than two (2) calendar years after the earlier of the expiration of the applicable calendar year or the expiration of the Term, provided that in any event Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s Percentage of such expenses levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility company at any time which are attributable to any calendar year during the Term (provided that Landlord delivers Tenant a supplemental statement for such amounts within ninety (90) days following Landlord’s receipt of the bill therefor).

(e)          The amount Tenant is required to pay on an annualized basis for Tenant’s Percentage of the Operating Expenses which are considered “controllable expenses” shall not increase by more than five percent (5%) from one calendar year to the following calendar year provided however, if from any one calendar year to the following calendar year the increase for the controllable expenses is less than five percent (5%), then the difference may be applied to any future increases from one calendar year to the next such that the cap applicable to that future year to year increase in Tenant’s Percentage of controllable Operating Expenses may be higher than five percent (5%) for a year and the amount of Tenant’s Percentage of the controllable Operating Expenses that is in excess of five  percent (5%) for a year may be included in the unused portion of a future years’ cap. For purposes hereof, “controllable expenses” shall be defined as all Operating Expenses except utility charges, HVAC, trash removal, taxes, Real Property Taxes, assessments, insurance and other expenses over which Landlord has no control of the costs.

(f)           If Tenant disputes or otherwise desires additional information regarding the amount of Tenant’s Percentage of the Operating Expenses or the amount of Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes as set forth in the Landlord’s year-end statement (the “Statement”), Tenant shall have the right, but not more often than once per calendar year and Tenant shall only be permitted to audit each Statement one time, after reasonable notice and at reasonable times, to inspect and photocopy Landlord’s accounting records at Landlord’s office in the County in which the Premises are located. If, after such inspection and photocopying, Tenant still disputes or desires additional information regarding the amount of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses or the amount of Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes as set forth in the Statement, Tenant shall be entitled to retain a third party certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Landlord and whose fee is not based on the percentage of any discrepancy found to audit Landlords’ records to determine the proper amount of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses or the proper amount of Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes, as applicable. If such audit reveals that Landlord has overcharged Tenant, then within five (5) days after the results of such audit are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant the amount of such overcharge plus interest thereon at the Interest Rate. If the audit reveals that Tenant was undercharged, then within five (5) days after the results of the audit are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord the amount of such undercharge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit, provided that Landlord shall pay such cost if the audit reveals that Landlord’s determination of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses or the Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes as set forth in the Statement was in error by more than five percent (5%). Landlord shall be required to maintain records of all Operating Expenses for the entirety of the three-year period following delivery of each Statement. The payment by Tenant of any amounts pursuant to this Lease shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness of any Statement provided by Landlord, and the failure of Tenant to object thereto within one (1) year after its receipt thereof shall be conclusively deemed Tenant’s approval thereof; provided that if an audit for a particular year reveals that Landlord’s determination of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses or the Operating Expenses or Real Property Taxes as set forth in the Statement was in error by more than five percent (5%), then Tenant may also audit the two (2) years immediately prior to the year that was the subject of the audit.  The provisions of this Paragraph shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

7.           SECURITY DEPOSIT

Tenant shall deposit with Landlord the Letter of Credit in the Letter of Credit Amount, as set forth in and as adjusted pursuant to Section 1(n), upon the effectiveness of this Lease following the satisfaction or waiver of the Lease Contingency set forth in Section 1(s).

(a)          Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay, before delinquency, all taxes levied against any personal property or trade fixtures of Tenant in or about the Premises, provided that Tenant has received a bill for the same.  If any such taxes on Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property, or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon Tenant’s personal property or trade fixtures, and if Landlord, after reasonable Notice to Tenant, pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof, Tenant shall, upon demand, repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the portion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment.

(b)          If the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are separately assessed by the tax assessor for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming to Landlord's "Building Standard Improvements" are assessed, then the real property taxes and assessments levied against the Building by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 12(a) above. If the records of the County Assessor are available and sufficiently detailed to serve as a basis for determining whether the Tenant Improvements are assessed at a higher valuation than the Building Standard Improvements, such records shall be

binding on both Landlord and Tenant.  If the records of the County Assessor are not available or sufficiently detailed, the actual cost of construction shall be used.

13.         CONDITION OF PREMISES

Tenant accepts the Premises and the Project in “AS-IS” condition and repair, subject toLandlord’s Work.  Except as set forth in this Lease or the Work Letter, Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises, the Building, the Parking Facilities or any other portion of the Project or with respect to the condition thereof or the suitability of the same for the conduct of Tenant's business.  The taking of possession by Tenant of the Building in “white box” condition shall conclusively establish that the Premises, the Building and the Parking Facilities were in good and sanitary order, condition and repair at such time, subject only to latent defects and Landlord's obligations set forth elsewhere in this Lease (e.g., Landlord’s Work, and Landlord's obligations regarding restoration set forth in Section 22 and 23).  Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant's execution of the Memorandum of Lease Terms shall constitute a specific acknowledgment and acceptance of the various inconveniences that may be associated with the use of the Building, the Parking Facilities and other portions of the Project, such as certain construction obstacles (e.g., scaffolding), unavailability of certain elevators for Tenant's use, uneven air-conditioning services and other typical conditions.  Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and releases its right to terminate this Lease under Section 1932(1) of the California Civil Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the best of Landlord’s knowledge, as of the date of this Lease, Landlord has not received any notices that the Building or Premises are in violation of any code or ordinance. As of the Commencement Date, (i) the Premises, the Building and the Project shall be in Code Compliance (but excluding any improvements included in the Tenant Improvements); (ii) all structural components, exterior walls (including painting) and building systems servicing the Project, consisting of the roof, HVAC systems, windows, including seals, elevators and elevator equipment, electrical systems and equipment, lighting systems and equipment, plumbing systems and equipment, sprinkler system and equipment and irrigation system (collectively, the “Building Systems”) shall be in good working order; and (iii) the HVAC system shall have a useful life of at least eight (8) years.. If Tenant notifies Landlord that Landlord is not in compliance with clauses (i) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence or that a Building System or painting of the exterior walls, at Landlord’s reasonable discretion, requires repair or replacement within six (6) months after the Commencement Date, Landlord shall perform such work and/or repair or replace such Building System, as required at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and without reimbursement from Tenant either directly or as an Operating Expense; provided, however, with respect to the roof membrane and HVAC systems only, Landlord shall be responsible for the required repair or replacement thereof for a period of two (2) years following the Commencement Date (“collectively, Landlord’s Warranty Obligations”).

14.         ALTERATIONS

(a)          Tenant shall make no alterations, additions or improvements in or to the Premises (“Alterations”) without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and then only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  Tenant shall submit to Landlord plans and specifications for any proposed Alterations and may not make such Alterations until Landlord has approved such plans and specifications and the contractor in writing.  Tenant shall construct such Alterations in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by Landlord and in compliance with all applicable Laws, and shall not amend or modify such plans and specifications.  If the proposed change requires the consent or approval of the holder of a mortgage encumbering the Premises, Tenant acknowledges that such consent or approval must be secured prior to the construction of such Alteration.  Tenant agrees not to construct or erect partitions or other obstructions that may interfere with free access to mechanical installations or service facilities of the Building or interfere with the moving of equipment to or from the enclosures containing said installations or facilities.  All Alterations shall be done at such times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate. Tenant shall pay the entire cost of all Alterations and any work necessitated by the Alterations.  Tenant shall obtain and/or require from its contractor builder’s  “all risk insurance” in an amount at least equal to the replacement value of the Alterations naming Landlord and other parties required by Landlord as additional insureds, which shall specifically include completed operations.  Tenant covenants and agrees that all work done by Tenant, including the Tenant Improvements, shall be performed in full compliance with all

 

Glaukos

Building 26600

Laws, including the ADA.  If a governmental authority requires any alterations to the Project, Buildings or Premises as a result of Tenant’s Permitted Use or as a result of the Tenant Improvements or an Alteration to the Premises, or due to Tenant’s unique and specific use, and which are not included in Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall pay the cost of all such required alterations.  Any other code violation or alterations required by a governmental authority not covered by the previous two (2) sentences shall be the responsibility of Landlord at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and without reimbursement from Tenant either directly or as an Operating Expense. Before commencing any work, Tenant shall give Landlord at least ten (10) days’ Notice of the proposed commencement of such work.  For Alterations costing more than $50,000 and if Tenant fails to demonstrate to Landlord that it has sufficient available funds set aside for payment of the Alterations, Landlord may require that Tenant secure for such work at Tenant's own cost and expense a completion and payment bond in form, substance and amount reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. All Alterations made after the Commencement Date, shall, at Landlord's election, which election shall be communicated in writing to Tenant at the time of Landlord’s consent, either be removed by Tenant or shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon, and be surrendered with, the Premises at the end of the Term hereof; provided, however, that if Landlord, by Notice to Tenant, requires Tenant to remove such improvements, Tenant shall repair all damage resulting from such removal or, at Landlord's option, shall pay to Landlord the reasonable and documented cost of such removal prior to the expiration of the Term.  In no event shall Tenant be required to remove the Tenant Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall not be required to obtain Landlord’s prior written consent for non-structural, non-exterior, cosmetic alterations to the Premises, provided such alterations do not affect the Building Systems and cost in the aggregate for each alteration project no more than $150,000. Additionally, the construction of the Tenant Improvements shall be governed by the terms of the Work Letter and not the terms of this Section 14.

(b)          All articles of personal property and all business and trade fixtures, machinery and equipment, furniture and movable partitions owned by Tenant or installed by or for Tenant in the Premises shall be and remain the property of Tenant and shall be removed by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term and Tenant shall repair all damage to the Premises resulting from such removal.  If Tenant shall fail to remove any of the foregoing from the Premises on or before termination of this Lease for any cause whatsoever, Tenant shall be deemed to be holding over without Landlord’s consent, and Landlord may, at its option, remove the same in any manner that Landlord shall choose, and store the same without liability to Tenant for loss thereof, and Tenant shall pay Landlord upon demand any and all reasonable and documented expenses incurred in such removal, including court costs and attorneys' fees and storage charges thereon, for any length of time that the same shall be in Landlord's possession or control.  Landlord may without Notice, sell such property, at a private sale and without legal process, for such price as Landlord may obtain and apply the proceeds of such sale to any amounts due under this Lease from Tenant to Landlord and/or to all reasonable and documented expenses, including attorneys' fees and costs, incident to the removal and/or sale thereof.

15.         REPAIRS

(a)          Tenant shall, when and if needed, at Tenant's sole cost and expense and subject to Landlord’s Work and Landlord’s repair and restoration obligations under Sections 22 and 23, make all repairs to the Premises and every part thereof and all supplemental equipment installed in the Premises for Tenant’s use to maintain the Premises and such equipment in first class condition and repair and free from any Hazardous Materials resulting from Tenant’s use of the Premises or during Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, or while Tenant is the “Tenant” under this Lease unless such Hazardous Materials are brought onto the Premises by Landlord; provided that Tenant shall not be responsible for any repairs to the extent necessitated by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or contractors.  Tenant shall, upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term hereof, surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by Section 31(a) below. Landlord shall maintain the Common Areas.  From time to time, upon prior notice to Landlord, Tenant shall have the right to assume all or any of the maintenance and repair of the Common Areas or other portions of the Project for which Landlord is responsible hereunder, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. In such event, the Operating Expenses shall exclude any cost or expense related to such repair and maintenance performed by Tenant.

(b)          In addition, Tenant shall repair and maintain the Parking Facilities, other than those repairs considered capital items, as defined in Section 15(c) (to the extent Landlord is the owner thereof), and the plumbing, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, elevator and electrical systems installed therein, except for Landlord’s Work and

Landlord’s repair and restoration obligations under Sections 22 and 23.  Additionally, Tenant shall not be responsible for any repairs to the extent necessitated by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or contractors.  Except as provided in Sections 19, 22, 23 or 24(h) hereof, there shall be no abatement of rent and no liability of Landlord by reason of any injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from the making of any repairs, alterations or improvements in or to any portion of the Building or the Premises or in or to fixtures, appurtenances and equipment therein.  Except as specifically set forth in Section 24(g) hereof, Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

(c)          Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense and without reimbursement from Tenant either directly or as an Operating Expense, shall repair and maintain the structural portions of the Buildings including the foundation, the structural portion of the roof, exterior walls (including painting), below grade plumbing, and any repairs to the extent necessitated by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s agents, employees or contractors (collectively, “Landlord’s Structural Obligations”); provided, however, if a repair to any of the above is necessitated as a result of Tenant’s negligent use thereof, Tenant shall pay for all required repairs to the extent Landlord is not reimbursed by insurance. Landlord shall also make all repairs and replacement which are considered a capital item (as described below).  Provided the same are not included in Landlord’s Work, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such capital items in connection with payment of Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses, but subject to the limitations on capital expenditures in the definition of Operating Expenses in Section 6(a) for the amortized portion of each capital item applicable to the remaining portion of the Term, as such Term may be extended. For purposes of this Section 15(c), capital items consist of the maintenance, repair and replacement of the roof membrane, any Landlord HVAC system, the Parking Facility and any Building System which has an estimated useful life in excess of three (3) years.

16.         LIENS

If arising out of work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant or other actions taken by or on behalf of Tenant, Tenant shall remove any mechanics', materialmen's or other liens filed against the Building, the Project or of any portion thereof or against Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises, including without limitation any state, federal or local "superfund" or Hazardous Materials cleanup lien imposed as a result of the presence of Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Project arising out of work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant or other actions taken by or on behalf of Tenant. Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices that it deems necessary for protection from such liens.  Tenant shall discharge any lien filed against the Premises or against the Building for work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished to, Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within twenty (20) days after notice by Landlord, at the cost and expense of Tenant.  If any such liens are filed and Tenant fails to discharge them pursuant to the foregoing sentence, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder, pay such amounts as are necessary to cause such lien(s) to be released.  Tenant shall pay to Landlord, immediately upon Notice by Landlord, any cost or expense, including without limitation attorneys' fees and costs, incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to discharge any such lien, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate per annum permitted by law from the date of such payment by Landlord.

18.         UTILITIES AND SERVICES

Tenant shall obtain and pay all charges for all utilities and services furnished to the Premises and used within the Premises and within the Project.  Unless attributable to Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or to the extent that Landlord is expressly required to furnish the same hereunder, Landlord's failure to furnish or cause to be furnished any of the foregoing items shall not result in any liability to Landlord.  In addition, except as otherwise provided in Section 24(h), Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of Rent, no eviction of Tenant shall result from and Tenant shall not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement in this Lease by reason of such failure, interruption or stoppage.  Tenant shall pay all charges of the utility providing such service to the Premises directly to the purveyor thereof.

Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant that survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the clauses of this Section 19(a) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease until all Claims against Landlord involving any of the indemnified matters are fully, finally, and absolutely barred by the applicable statutes of limitations.

22.         DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

(a)          If the Building and/or the Premises and/or the Project are damaged by fire or other perils covered by insurance, Landlord shall:

(i)           In the event of total destruction or an uninsured casualty, at Landlord's option, as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, commence repair, reconstruction and restoration of the Building and/or the Premises and prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; provided, however, that if within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such damage, Landlord shall by Notice to Tenant elect not to repair, reconstruct or restore the Building and/or the Premises and/or the Project, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such total destruction.

(ii)          In the event of a partial destruction (i.e., not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value) of the Building and/or the Premises and if the damage thereto is such that the Building and/or the Premises is capable of being repaired, reconstructed or restored within a period of ninety (90) days from the date the casualty occurred and if Landlord will receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the total cost of such repairs (without considering any deductible amounts), Landlord shall commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair, reconstruction and restoration of the Building and/or the Premises or both, as the case may be, and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If such work of repair, reconstruction and restoration shall require a period longer than ninety (90) days or exceeds twenty-five percent (25%) of the full insurable value of the Building and/or the Premises, or both, as the case may be, or if said insurance proceeds will not be sufficient to cover the cost of such repairs (without considering any deductible amounts), then Landlord either may elect (A) to repair, reconstruct or restore and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (B) not to repair, reconstruct or restore and this Lease shall then terminate as of the date of such partial destruction.  Landlord shall give Notice to Tenant of its intention regarding repairs within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such casualty.  If the damage is due to any cause other than fire or a peril covered by extended coverage insurance, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease as of the date the casualty occurred.

(b)          Upon any termination of this Lease under any of the provisions of this Section 22, the parties shall be released without further obligation to the other from the date possession of the Premises is surrendered to Landlord except for items which have therefore accrued and/or are then unpaid or which expressly survive the termination of this Lease.

(c)          In the event of repair, reconstruction or restoration by Landlord following a casualty as herein provided, the Rent payable under this Lease shall be abated proportionately with the degree to which Tenant's Permitted Use is impaired during the period of such repair, reconstruction or restoration, but only to the extent that Landlord is compensated for such loss by the insurance carried or required to be carried pursuant to Section 21(a)(iv) above. Tenant’s abatement period provided for herein shall continue until Tenant has been given reasonably sufficient time and sufficient access to the Premises, to rebuild the portion of the Premises it is required to rebuild (if any), to install its property, furniture, fixtures, data and telecommunications cabling and equipment and to move in to the Premises.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no abatement of Rent if such damage is caused, by Tenant's negligence or intentional wrongdoing.  Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages for loss in the use of the whole or any part of the Premises and/or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.  If Landlord is obligated to or elects to repair or restore as herein provided, Landlord shall be obligated to make repair or restoration only of those portions of the Building and the Premises which were originally provided at Landlord's expense, and the repair and restoration of items not provided at Landlord's expense shall be the obligation of Tenant and Tenant shall be entitled to all insurance proceeds under the insurance maintained by Tenant under Section 21(a) that are allocable to such items.

(d)          In the event of damage to the Premises and/or the Building, Tenant shall not be released from any of its obligations under this Lease except to the extent and upon the conditions expressly stated in this Section 22.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 22, if Landlord cannot repair or restore the damaged Premises within nine (9) months after the occurrence of such damage or destruction by reason of force majeure as described in Section 34 below, Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease, whereupon Landlord shall be relieved

of its obligations to make such repairs or restoration and Tenant shall be released from its obligations under this Lease as of the end of said nine (9) month period.

(e)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 22, Landlord shall not have any obligation whatsoever to repair, reconstruct or restore the Premises when the damage resulting from any casualty covered under this Section 22 occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease or any extension hereof  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord exercises its right to terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions of this subparagraph and Tenant has an unexpired, unexercised option to renew the term of this Lease, Tenant may cause Landlord’s termination exercise to be rescinded by exercising such option to renew within ten (10) business days following delivery of notice of Landlord’s exercise of its right to terminate this Lease, provided that all other conditions for the effectiveness of the exercise of such option to renew are satisfied..

(f)           Landlord will exercise all termination rights hereunder in good faith or merely to gain the benefit of higher market rents or if Landlord intends to rebuild.  In addition and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, (i) during the last 12 months of the Term or any extension thereof, twenty percent (20%) or more of the Premises is damaged or destroyed, and Tenant ceases to occupy such portion of the Premises or (ii) any damage or destruction would take more than sixty (60) days to repair; or (iii) Tenant will not receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the cost of restoring its tenant improvements that Landlord is not obligated to restore (without considering any deductible amounts and provided Tenant maintains the insurance required under Section 21(a)), Tenant shall have the right to terminate the Lease as of the date of such damage or destruction by written notice to Landlord, given within thirty (30) days after such damage or destruction.

(g)          Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932, Subsection 2, and Section 1933, Subsection 4, and any other statute or court decision relating to the abatement or termination of a lease upon destruction of the Premises; and the provisions of this Section shall govern in case of such destruction.

23.         EMINENT DOMAIN

(a)          If all of the Premises or the Project, or such part thereof as shall prevent Tenant's use and occupancy thereof in substantially the same manner as Tenant’s use and occupancy prior to the taking while still retaining substantially the same material rights and benefits it bargained to receive under this Lease, shall be 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 (collectively, “Taking”) or if access to the Project is substantially impaired as a result of any Taking, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease by Notice to the other effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered.  Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking, and Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Term pursuant the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do no diminish the award available to Landlord, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant.  If the amount of property or the type of estate taken shall not substantially interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business in substantially the same manner as Tenant’s use and occupancy prior to the taking while still retaining substantially the same material rights and benefits it bargained to receive under this Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to the entire amount of the award without deduction for any estate or interest of Tenant, Landlord shall restore the Premises to substantially their same condition prior to such partial taking, and Annual Basic Rent shall be reduced, effective as of the date the condemning authority takes possession, in the same proportion which the Rentable Square Feet of the portion of the Premises so taken bears to the Rentable Square Feet of the entire Premises before the taking. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in any award made to Tenant for the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant.

(b)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 23(a) above, in the event of taking of the Premises or any part thereof for temporary use, (i) this Lease shall be and remain unaffected thereby and Rent shall not abate, and (ii) Tenant shall be entitled to receive for itself such portion or portions of any award made for such use with respect to the period of the taking which is within the Term, provided that if such taking shall remain in force at

the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall then pay to Landlord a sum equal to the reasonable cost of performing Tenant's obligations under Section 15(a) with respect to surrender of the Premises and, upon such payment, shall be excused from such obligations.  For purpose of this Section 23(b), a "temporary" taking shall be defined as a taking for a period of 180 days or less.

(c)          Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and releases its rights under Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

24.         DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

(a)          The occurrence of any one or more of the following events, upon the expiration of any applicable time period, shall constitute a default hereunder by Tenant ("Default"):

(i)           Abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. Notwithstanding the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1951.3, "Abandonment" means any absence by Tenant from the Premises for fifteen (15) business days or longer while in default pursuant to Sections 24(a)(ii) and/or (iv);

(ii)          The failure by Tenant to make any payment of Rent or Additional Rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of three (3) business days after Notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant.

(iii)         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 24(a)(i) or (ii) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after 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 shall not be deemed to be in Default if Tenant shall commence such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion; which completion shall occur not later than one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of such Notice from Landlord; or

(iv)         (1) The making by Tenant of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (2) 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); (3) 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 thirty (30) days; (4) 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 thirty (30) days; or (5) Tenant's convening of a meeting of its creditors or any class thereof for the purpose of effecting a moratorium upon or composition of its debts, or any class thereof.

Any Landlord Notice required hereby shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any Notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161 and Tenant hereby expressly waives the notice requirements of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1162.

(b)          In the event of any such Default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including without limitation the remedies of Civil Code Section 1951.2 and any successor statute, Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder.  If Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease then Landlord may recover from Tenant:  (i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment caused by Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the cost of

recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary repair, renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees and any other reasonable costs; provided that any such reletting costs shall be amortized over the term of any new lease, and Tenant shall only be liable for the portion amortizing during the balance of the Term.

As used in Sections 24(b)(i) and (ii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by allowing interest at the maximum rate permitted by law.  As used in Section 24(b)(iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" is computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco ("Discount Rate") at the time of award plus one percent (1%). If the format or components of the Discount Rate are materially changed, or if the Discount Rate ceases to exist, Landlord shall substitute a discount rate which is maintained by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco or similar financial institution and which is most nearly equivalent to the Discount Rate.

(c)          If any such Default by Tenant occurs, Landlord may utilize the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4.

(d)          If Tenant abandons the Premises or if Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided above or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided above, Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, either recover all Rent as it becomes due or relet the Premises or any part thereof for the Term of this Lease on terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises.

If Landlord shall elect to so relet, such reletting shall not relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder, except that the rents received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as follows:  first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the payment of the cost of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; fourth, to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied to payment of future Rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rents received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder, be less than the Rent payable during that month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord immediately upon demand therefor by Landlord.  Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly.  Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rents received from such reletting.

(e)          Tenant hereby acknowledges that Default by Tenant hereunder, and Landlord's election to prepare and serve a Notice of Default hereunder, will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, and costs in addition to any costs which may be reimbursed to Landlord by any provision which may be contained herein relative to the payment of interest or late charges on amounts due hereunder. Accordingly, Landlord shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of Notice of Default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default.  It is further hereby specifically agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant that any and all such fees and costs shall be deemed Additional Rent hereunder, and may, at the option of Landlord, be included in any Notice of Default hereunder.

(f)           Landlord shall be in default hereunder if (i) in the event a failure by Landlord is with respect to the payment of money, Landlord fails to pay such unpaid amounts within thirty (30) days of written notice from Tenant that the same was not paid when due; or (ii) in the event a failure by Landlord is other than (i) above, Landlord fails to perform such obligation within a reasonable time period with the expenditure of diligent efforts, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from Tenant specifying in detail Landlord's failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion.  Upon any such default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of its rights provided at law or in equity.

(g)          Should Landlord fail to make any repairs or otherwise maintain the Premises, the Buildings and the Project in the manner in which Landlord is obligated under the terms of this Lease (including Landlord’s Work), and such failure materially interferes with Tenant’s ability to operate its business in the Premises, then, provided Landlord has not reasonably disputed the need for such repair or maintenance, if Landlord fails to complete the repairs or perform the maintenance within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed thirty (30) days) after notice  (or such longer time as is reasonably necessary so long as Landlord has commenced to cure such failure within a reasonable period of time and is diligently proceeding with such cure), Tenant may proceed, upon delivery of an additional three (3) business days’ notice to Landlord specifying Tenant’s intent to take such action, to make such repairs in a reasonable manner at the prevailing cost of same. Tenant shall not be permitted to make any repairs to the structural portions of the Premises. Any work required to the roof of the Building must be performed by Landlord’s designated roofing contractor. Landlord shall reimburse Tenant therefor within thirty (30) days after the completion of the repairs by Tenant and receipt by Landlord of final lien waivers and a copy of the paid invoices, setting forth in reasonable detail the work performed and materials used. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless for any damage caused to the Building or Building Systems by Tenant exercising its self-help right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant has not received payments due from Landlord as of the end of the thirtieth (30th) day following Landlord’s receipt of a statement or notice thereof, Tenant shall have the right to offset said sums against each month’s Monthly Installment of Basic Rent due under this Lease until the total amount of such sums due to Tenant has been recaptured by Tenant through such offset.

(h)          In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of (i) any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord, or which Landlord failed to perform, after the Commencement Date and required by this Lease, which substantially interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises, or (ii) any failure to provide services, utilities or access to the Premises or Common Areas as required by this Lease (either such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i) or (ii), above, to be known as an "Abatement Event"), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for three (3) consecutive business days after Landlord's receipt of any such notice (or occurs for ten (10) non-consecutive business days in any six (6) month period (provided Landlord is notified of each of such Abatement Event) (in either of such events, the "Eligibility Period") then the Annual Basic Rent and Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes shall be abated or reduced based on that portion of the Premises which Tenant is prevented from using, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use for the normal conduct of Tenant's business, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein, and if Tenant does not conduct its business from such remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from effectively conducting its business therein, the Annual Basic Rent and Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses and Real Property Taxes for the entire Premises shall be abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises.  If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such period, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises.  To the extent an Abatement Event is caused by an event covered by Section 22 or 23 of this Lease, then Tenant's right to abate rent shall be governed by the terms of such Section 22 or 23, as applicable, and the Eligibility Period shall not be applicable thereto.  If Tenant's right to abatement occurs during a free rent period which arises after the Commencement Date, Tenant's free rent period shall be extended for the number of days that the abatement period overlapped the free rent period.

25.         NO WAIVER

All rights, options and remedies of Landlord or Tenant contained in this Lease shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and not one of them shall be exclusive of the other, and Landlord or Tenant, as applicable, 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, whether or not stated in this Lease.  The waiver by either party of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or

condition herein contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may grow up between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of or in any way affect the right of a party to insist upon the performance by the other party in strict accordance with said terms. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord or payment of Rent hereunder by Tenant shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant or Landlord, as applicable, of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord's or Tenant’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of Landlord’s acceptance or Tenant’s payment of such Rent.  No acceptance by Landlord of a lesser sum than the Annual Basic Rent and Additional Rent or other sum then due shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest installment of such Rent or other amount due, nor shall 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.

26.         ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

(a)          Subject to Section 26(i), Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, sell, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer all or any part of its interest in this Lease or in the Premises or sublease all or any part of the Premises, or allow any other person or entity to occupy or use all or any part of the Premises, without first obtaining Landlord's prior written consent, which consent Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay.  Any assignment, sale, encumbrance, pledge, sublease or other transfer without Landlord's prior written consent shall be voidable at Landlord's election and shall constitute a Default.

(b)          For purposes hereof, unless Tenant is a publicly traded company, any of the following shall constitute a voluntary assignment subject to the provisions of this Section:

(i)           If Tenant is a partnership or limited liability company. (A) a change in ownership effected voluntarily, involuntarily, or by operation of law or forty-nine percent (49%) or more of the partners or members of forty-nine percent (49%) or more of the partnership or membership interest; or (B) the dissolution of the partnership or limited liability company without its immediate reconstitution;

(ii)          If Tenant is a corporation: (A) the sale or other transfer of more than an aggregate of forty-nine percent (49%) of the shares of Tenant (B) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation , or pledge of more than an aggregate of forty-nine percent (49%) of the value of Tenant’s unencumbered assets, or (C) the dissolution, merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of Tenant.

No consent to an assignment, encumbrance or sublease shall constitute a waiver of any provision of this Section 26 or consent to any future assignment, encumbrance or transfer.

(c)          If Tenant desires to assign, hypothecate or otherwise transfer this Lease or sublet the Premises, then at least thirty (30) days prior to the date when Tenant desires the assignment or sublease to be effective ("Assignment Date") Tenant shall give Landlord a Notice ("Assignment Notice"),  setting forth the name, address and business of the proposed assignee or sublessee, information (including references) concerning the character, ownership and financial condition of the proposed assignee or sublessee, the Assignment Date, any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed assignee or sublessee and the consideration and all other material terms and conditions of the proposed assignment or sublease, all in such detail as Landlord shall reasonably require.  If Landlord reasonably requests additional detail, the Assignment Notice shall not be deemed to have been received until Landlord receives such additional detail, and Landlord may withhold consent to any assignment or sublease until such information is provided to it.

(d)          Within thirty (30) days of Landlord's receipt of such Assignment Notice, and all information specified in Section 26(c) above, Landlord may, by Notice to Tenant, elect to: (i) consent to such proposed assignment, encumbrance or sublease upon the terms and to the subtenant or assignee proposed; or (ii) refuse to give its consent, specifying in reasonable detail the reasonable reason(s) therefor.  Tenant shall, at Tenant's own cost and expense, discharge in full any commissions which may be due and owing as a result of any proposed assignment or subletting.

(e)          As a condition for granting its consent to any assignment, encumbrance or sublease, Landlord shall be entitled to require that the assignee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due to Tenant by said assignee. In addition, as a condition to Landlord's consent to any assignment, transfer or hypothecation of this Lease shall be the delivery to Landlord of a true copy of a fully executed instrument of assignment and assumption, transfer or hypothecation, and the delivery to Landlord of an agreement executed by the assignee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and expressly enforceable by Landlord, whereby the assignee 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.  As a condition to Landlord's consent to any sublease, such sublease (or the consent document specifically evidencing Landlord's consent thereto) shall be delivered to Landlord in advance.

(f)           If Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease under the provisions of this Section 26, Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable expenses, costs and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with processing such consent, not to exceed $1500 for each request.  If Landlord shall consent to any assignment of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of all sums and other consideration in excess of the Rent due hereunder paid to  Tenant by the assignee for Tenant's leasehold estate hereunder after Tenant has deducted its expenses for subletting or assigning, including tenant improvements, reasonable brokerage and legal fees, rent and operating expense abatement or other reasonable sublease and assignment concessions, as and when such sums and other consideration are paid by the assignee to Tenant shall instruct the assignee to pay such sums and other consideration directly to Landlord.  If for any proposed sublease, Tenant receives Annual Basic Rent or other consideration, either initially or over the term of the sublease, in excess of the Annual Basic Rent called for hereunder or, in case of the sublease of a portion of the Premises, in excess of such Annual Basic Rent fairly allocable to such portion, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent hereunder fifty percent (50%) of the excess after Tenant has deducted its expenses for subletting or assigning, including tenant improvements, reasonable brokerage and legal fees, rent and operating expense abatement or other reasonable sublease and assignment concessions, of each such payment of rent or other consideration received by Tenant promptly after its receipt.  Landlord's consent to any assignment or subletting shall not relieve Tenant or any assignee or sublessee from any obligation under this Lease whether or not accrued as of the date of the assignment or subletting.

(g)          All options to extend, renew or expand, if any, contained in this Lease are personal to Tenant.  Consent by Landlord to any assignment or subletting shall not include consent to the assignment or transfer of any such rights with respect to the Premises, any special privileges or extra services granted to Tenant (and such options, rights, privileges or services shall terminate upon such assignment or subletting), unless Landlord specifically grants in writing such options, rights, privileges or services to such assignee or subtenant.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all options to extend, renew or expand, if any, contained in this Lease shall transfer to a Permitted Transferee.

(h)          If Landlord consents to such assignment or subletting or does not exercise any option set forth in Section 26(d) above within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant may thereafter within one hundred eighty (180) days after the expiration of said thirty (30) day period enter into a valid assignment or sublease of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions described in the information required to be furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 26(c), or upon other terms not materially less favorable to Tenant; provided, however, that any material change in such terms shall be subject to Landlord's consent as provided in this Section and, provided further, that any amount to be paid to Landlord by Tenant in connection therewith pursuant to Section 26(f) above shall be paid to Landlord upon the later of consummation of such transaction or receipt by Tenant of such consideration.

(i)           So long as Tenant is not entering into the Permitted Transfer (as defined below) for the purpose of avoiding or otherwise circumventing the remaining terms of this Paragraph 26,  Tenant may assign its entire interest under this Lease or sublease a portion of the Premises, without the consent of Landlord, to (a) an affiliate, subsidiary or parent of Tenant, or a corporation, partnership or other legal entity wholly owned by Tenant, (b) any entity, controlling, controlled by or under common control of Tenant or Tenant’s parent, (c) a successor to Tenant by purchase, merger, consolidation or reorganization; (each such transfer a “Permitted Transfer” and any such assignee of a Permitted Transfer, a “Permitted Transferee”), provided Tenant notifies Landlord no less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the assignment and provides Landlord with evidence that the net worth of the Permitted Transferee at the time of the Transfer is equal to or exceeds the net worth of Tenant as of the Commencement Date or

at the time of transfer, whichever is less. In addition, Tenant may share occupancy of the Premises with Tenant’s contractors, customers, partners, or business teammates, which for purposes hereof shall not be considered an assignment or subletting; provided, Tenant shall be fully responsible for all actions of such occupants and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord for any and all claims, losses and damages related to such occupants. For purposes of this Section 26(i), “Control” means the possession of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such entity. Tenant acknowledges that following a Permitted Transfer, Tenant remains fully liable for all obligations and liabilities under this Lease.

27.         SUBORDINATION

Subject to Tenant’s receipt of commercially reasonable non-disturbance protection from any mortgagor or hold of deed of trust on the Promises or the Project, without the necessity of any additional documents being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of Landlord or any mortgagee or holder of deed of trust with a lien on the Building or the Project or any ground lessor with respect to the Building or the Project, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to:  (a) all ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Building, the Project, or the land upon which the Building and the Project are situated, or both; and (b) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist or hereafter be executed in any amount for which the Building, the Project, the land upon which the Building and the Project are situated, ground leases or underlying leases, or Landlord's interest or estate in any of said items is specified as security.  Landlord shall cause any future lienholder senior or made senior to this Lease to provide Tenant with a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement as a condition precedent to any subordination by Tenant under this Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated such ground leases or any such liens to this Lease.  If any ground lease or underlying lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the tenant of the successor-in-interest to Landlord, at the option of such successor-in-interest to Landlord.  Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, within ten (10) business days after demand by Landlord therefor, any commercially reasonable additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases, underlying leases or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust.

28.         SNDA

Landlord agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts, but at no cost to Landlord, to assist Tenant in obtaining a Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (“SNDA”) from the current holder of the existing deed of trust encumbering the Project by providing Tenant with (a) a lender’s standard form SNDA, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “J” and (b) the lender’s or the lender’s servicer’s contact information. It is the parties’ intent to permit Tenant to work directly with the lender or lender’s servicer to finalize the SNDA. Landlord further agrees to contact the lender if necessary to assist in finalizing the SNDA. Any fees charged by lender or lender’s servicer in connection with the SNDA shall be paid by Tenant.

29.         ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

(a)          Within ten (10) business days following any written request which Landlord may make from time to time, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord a statement, in a form substantially similar to the form of Exhibit "E" attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference or as otherwise reasonably required by Landlord’s lender ("Tenant Estoppel Certificate").  Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section 29 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Building or the Project or any interest therein.

(b)          Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant (i) that 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 Annual Basic Rent has been paid in advance.

(c)          Within ten (10) business days following any written request which Tenant may make from time to time, Landlord shall execute and deliver to Tenant a statement in form reasonably satisfactory to Tenant and Landlord  (i) acknowledging whether or not the Lease is then in full force and effect and has been modified (and if modified, setting forth the specific nature of all modifications) and (ii) setting forth the date to which the fixed and additional rent has been paid, and (iii) stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of Landlord, Tenant is in default under the Lease, and if Tenant is in default, setting forth the specific nature of all such defaults.  Landlord acknowledges that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by the party to whom it is delivered.

30.         PROJECT PLANNING

Intentionally Deleted.

31.         SURRENDER OF PREMISES

(a)          The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation thereof, shall not work a merger, and shall, at the option of Landlord, operate as an assignment to it of any or all subleases or subtenancies. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, subject to the terms of this Section 31(a) and Section 14(a), Tenant shall peaceably surrender the Premises and all alterations and additions thereto, broom-clean and in good order, repair and condition, free from any and all Hazardous Materials resulting solely from Tenant’s use and occupancy, including those  Tenant allows to occupy the Premises, of the Premises and Project, reasonable wear and tear, casualty, condemnation and repairs which are the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted, and shall comply with the provisions of Section 14(a).   Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any Tenant Improvements or perform any restoration work with respect to any Tenant Improvements except to the extent Landlord notified Tenant of such obligation on or before Landlord’s approval of the applicable Space Plan (as defined in the Work Letter). In addition, Tenant may elect to remove all or some of Tenant’s equipment and trade fixtures from the Premises. Subject to the foregoing, Tenant must, at Tenant’s sole cost, remove upon termination of their Lease, any and all of Tenant’s furniture, furnishings, equipment, movable partitions of less than full height from floor to ceiling and other personal property as well as all data/telecommunications cabling and wiring, whether inside walls, under any raised floor or above any ceiling (collectively, “Personalty”). Personalty not so removed shall be deemed abandoned by the Tenant and title to the same shall thereupon pass to Landlord under this Lease as by a bill of sale, but Tenant shall remain responsible for the reasonable cost of removal and disposal of such Personalty, as well as any damage caused by such removal. In addition, Tenant shall terminate as of the expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Lease, at its sole cost and expense, including the payment of any termination or cancellation fees, all contracts with respect to the maintenance and repair of the Premises. The delivery of keys to any employee of Landlord or to Landlord's agent or any employee thereof shall not be sufficient to constitute a termination of this Lease or a surrender of the Premises.

(b)          In connection with its surrender of the Premises, Tenant shall submit to Landlord at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date of this Lease (or in the event of an earlier termination of this Lease, as soon as reasonably possible following such termination), the following information (i) a list of any Hazardous Materials existing on the Premises resulting from Tenant’s use of the Premises or during Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, or while Tenant is the “Tenant” under this Lease unless such Hazardous Materials are brought onto the Premises by Landlord, and (ii) Tenant’s plan to remove those items on the list. Upon termination or expiration of the Term, Tenant at its sole expense shall cause all Hazardous Materials located in or about the Premises, the Building and/or the Project, and all installations (whether interior or exterior) relating to the storage, use, disposal or transportation of Hazardous Materials, including, but not limited to the emergency generator, and resulting from Tenant’s use of the Premises or during Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, or while Tenant is the “Tenant” under this Lease unless such Hazardous Materials are brought onto the Premises by Landlord to be removed from the property and transported for use, storage or disposal in accordance and compliance with all Laws and other requirements respecting Hazardous Materials. To the extent required by Applicable Laws, Tenant shall apply for and shall obtain from all appropriate regulatory

similar list maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, executive order or regulation (collectively, the “List”), and (ii) not a person or entity with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited to engage in transactions by any trade embargo, economic sanction, or other prohibition of United States law, regulation, or Executive Order of the President of the United States, and (iii) not an Embargoed Person (as hereinafter defined), (b) to Tenant’s actual knowledge, none of the funds or other assets of Tenant constitute property of, or are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Embargoed Person, and (c) to Tenant’s actual knowledge, no Embargoed Person has any interest of any nature whatsoever in Tenant (whether directly or indirectly).  The term “Embargoed Person” means any person, entity or government subject to trade restrictions under U.S. law, including but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §1701 et seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders or regulations promulgated thereunder.

39.         OPTION TO EXTEND.

Provided Tenant is not in Default and has not assigned or subleased any portion of the Premises, other than to a Permitted Transferee, Tenant shall have the right and option (“Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease for two (2) additional periods of five (5) years each (each an “Option Term”) with respect to all of the Premises.  The Option Term shall commence on the day immediately succeeding the last day of the then current Term and shall end on the day immediately preceding the fifth (5th) anniversary of the first day of such Option Term.

Tenant shall exercise the Option by giving written notice to Landlord of its election to do so not earlier than twelve (12) months or later than nine (9) months prior to the expiration date of the applicable Term.  The giving of such notice of extension by Tenant shall automatically extend the Term of this Lease for such Option Term, and no instrument of renewal or extension need be executed.  In the event that Tenant fails to give notice to Landlord, this Lease shall automatically terminate at the end of the Term, as extended, and Tenant shall have no further option to extend the Term of this Lease.  The Option shall be exercisable by Tenant only on the express condition that at the time of the exercise, and at all times after the exercise of the Option until the commencement of the Option Term, Tenant shall not be in Default under any of the provisions of this Lease and Tenant or a Permitted Transferee is occupying the Premises. The Option is personal to Glaukos Corporation and/or a Permitted Transferee.

The Option Term shall be on all the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that:  (i) following Tenant’s exercise of the second Option Term, Tenant shall have no further right or option to extend the Term as provided by this Paragraph and (ii) the Annual Basic Rent for each Option Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises (including periodic adjustments) for such Option Term, determined pursuant to the following paragraph. If Tenant subleases any portion of the Premises or assigns or otherwise transfers any interest under this Lease, the Option shall lapse.

For the purposes hereof, “Fair Market Rental Value” of the Premises shall mean the prevailing annual market rental value (which rental value determination may include increases in Rent during the Option Term) for space of comparable type, size, quality and location in comparable buildings located within Aliso Viejo, California, as of the date of commencement of the applicable Option Term (“Comparable Transactions”), taking into consideration and adjusting for, as appropriate, the amount and availability of parking, differences in project amenities, condition of the space in question, operating expense protections, insurance obligations and type of lease (net, gross, etc.), as well as the following concessions (collectively, the “Renewal Concessions”):  (i) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; (ii) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space taking into account and deducting the value of the existing Tenant Improvements in the Premises, such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the Tenant Improvements existing in the Premises are specifically suitable to Tenant (iii) other reasonable monetary concessions being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space.  The fact that landlords are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space and the period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable transactions in connection with the design, permitting and construction of tenant improvements in such comparable spaces shall not be considered. The Fair Market Rental Value shall additionally include a determination as to whether, and if so to what extent, Tenant must provide Landlord with financial security, such as a letter of credit or security deposit, for Tenant’s Rent obligations in connection with Tenant’s lease of the Premises during the applicable Option Term.  Such determination shall be made by reviewing the extent of financial

security then generally being imposed in Comparable Transactions from tenants of comparable financial condition and credit history to the then existing financial condition and credit history of Tenant (with appropriate adjustments to account for differences in the then-existing financial condition of Tenant and such other tenants).

Promptly after receiving Tenant’s notice of its election to exercise the Option to extend the Term of this Lease (but in no event less than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the existing Term, Landlord shall provide Tenant with Landlord’s good faith estimate of the Fair Market Rental Value of the Premises for the Option Term (“Landlord’s Fair Market Rental Value Notice”).  In the event that Tenant objects to Landlord’s determination of the Fair Market Rental Value within twenty (20) business days following Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Fair Market Rental Value Notice, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Fair Market Rental Value using their good faith efforts.  If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within ten (10) business days following Tenant’s objection to the Fair Market Rental Value (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then within five (5) business days after the Outside Agreement Date, the parties shall each make a separate determination of the Fair Market Rental Value, which determinations shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Subsections (i) through Subsection (vii) below.

(i)           Landlord and Tenant shall each appoint one arbitrator who shall be a real estate broker who shall have been active over the five (5) year period ending on the date of such appointment in the leasing of commercial office properties in Aliso Viejo, California.  The determination of the arbitrators (including the third arbitrator provided for below) shall be limited solely to the issue of whether Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value is the closest to the actual Fair Market Rental Value, as determined by the arbitrators, taking into account the requirements herein.  Each such arbitrator shall be appointed within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date.

(ii)          The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall within ten (10) days of the date of the appointment of the last appointed arbitrator agree upon and appoint a third neutral arbitrator who shall be qualified under the same criteria set forth hereinabove for qualification of the initial two (2) arbitrators.

(iii)         The three (3) arbitrators shall within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the third arbitrator reach a decision as to whether the parties shall use Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value and shall notify Landlord and Tenant thereof.

(iv)         The decision of the majority of the three (3) arbitrators shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.

(v)          If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the applicable Outside Agreement Date, then the arbitrator appointed by one of them shall reach a decision, notify Landlord and Tenant thereof and such arbitrator’s decision shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant.

(vi)         If the two (2) arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint a third arbitrator, or if both parties fail to appoint an arbitrator, then the appointment of the third arbitrator or any arbitrator shall be dismissed and the matter to be decided (that is, the selection of Landlord’s or Tenant’s submitted Fair Market Rental Value) shall be forthwith submitted to arbitration under the provisions of the American Arbitration Association, but subject to the instruction set forth in this Subsection.

(vii)        The cost of the arbitration shall be paid by Landlord and Tenant equally.

3.5          Permits.  The Final Working Drawings for the applicable Construction Phase of construction of the Tenant Improvements must have been reviewed and approved by Landlord in accordance with Section 3.3 above (the “Approved Working Drawings”) prior to the commencement of such Construction Phase of construction of the Tenant Improvements.  Tenant shall cause the Architect to submit the Approved Working Drawings to the appropriate municipal authorities for all applicable building permits necessary to allow “Contractor,” as that term is defined in Section 4.1 below, to commence and fully complete the construction of the particular Construction Phase of Tenant Improvements (the “Permits”).  No material changes, modifications or alterations in the Approved Working Drawings may be made without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

3.6          Change Orders.  In the event Tenant desires to materially change the Final Working Drawings, Tenant shall deliver written notice (the “Change Notice”) of the same to Landlord, setting forth in detail the changes (the “Tenant Change”) Tenant desires to make.  Promptly after receipt of a Change Notice related to a Tenant Change, Landlord shall either (a) approve the Tenant Change, or (b) disapprove the Tenant Change and deliver a notice to Tenant specifying in reasonably sufficient detail the reasons for Landlord’s disapproval, which approval shall be limited to determining if and to the extent a Design Problem exists, as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion.

3.7          Time Deadlines.  Tenant shall use its good faith efforts and due diligence to cooperate with the Architect, the Engineers, and Landlord to complete Construction Drawings and the permitting process and to receive the permits for the Tenant Improvements in a timely manner based on the applicable Construction Phase of construction of the Tenant Improvements selected by Tenant.  Tenant shall meet with Landlord on a scheduled basis to be mutually determined by Landlord and Tenant, to discuss Tenant’s progress in connection with the applicable Construction Phase of the Tenant Improvements.  The parties acknowledge that Tenant will not have access to the Premises prior to April 1, 2019.  To the extent permitted by City ordinance and any applicable CC&Rs, Landlord shall not restrict the hours during which construction activities may occur within the Premises.

payment request (such inspection to be limited to confirming that the Tenant Improvements substantially conform to the Approved Working Drawings).  Landlord shall not be required to make disbursements from the Tenant Improvement Allowance more than once in any 30-day period.

6.1.1       As the cost of the Tenant Improvements is expected to exceed the Tenant Improvement Allowance, and as the extent of such overage is not yet known, the parties agree that Landlord shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of each approved and properly submitted request for payment until Landlord has disbursed in the aggregate a portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance up to the amount of the Letter of Credit following which Landlord shall pay fifty percent (50%) of each approved and properly summited request for payment and Tenant shall be responsible for the other fifty percent (50%) until the remaining amount of the Tenant Improvement Allowance has been disbursed. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of all remaining costs for the Tenant Improvements.  Tenant shall pay such excess costs, and provide Landlord with evidence of such payment and lien waivers.  Additionally, upon the earlier of (i) substantial completion of the Tenant Improvements; or (ii) the TI Allowance Reconciliation Date, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a reconciliation of all costs incurred for the Tenant Improvements.  If such reconciliation shows that Tenant has paid for any costs that should have been funded from the Tenant Improvement Allowance (i.e., due to the fact that Landlord and Tenant are each paying 50% of the costs of the Tenant Improvements after Landlord has paid for 100% of Tenant Improvements up to the face amount of the Letter of Credit), Landlord shall pay such amount to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the TI Allowance Reconciliation Date.

6.1.2       A request for payment signed by Tenant on the form reasonably acceptable to Landlord certifies, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, (a) the percent of the Tenant Improvements covered by the Construction Contract completed and that percent not completed as of the date of the payment request, (b) unpaid costs for which invoices have been received from the Contractor and the subcontractors as of the date of the payment request, (c) the amount funded from the Tenant Improvement Allowance and/or paid to date by Tenant (during such periods when Tenant is required to pay a 50% share of the costs), (d) all costs projected to be necessary to complete the Tenant Improvements, (e) the application of all past receipts, and (f) evidence that Tenant has incurred no less than the requested amount for the Tenant Improvements.

6.1.3       Credits to which Tenant is entitled under the Construction Contract and any subcontracts, specifically deductive change orders.

6.1.4       Copies of invoices from Tenant and its subcontractors, suppliers and others requesting payment, accompanied by executed Conditional Waivers and Releases Upon Progress Payment which conform with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(1) from Tenant and Potential Lien Claimants (defined in Section 6.4 below) who are receiving payments from a payment request, as to any work performed on and materials delivered to the Building for which payment is requested in the current payment request.

6.1.5       Executed Unconditional Waivers and Releases Upon Progress Payment, which releases conform with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(2) from Tenant and all other Potential Lien Claimants with regard to any payments received in the immediately preceding progress payment by any such parties.

6.1.6       Invoices from service providers qualified for payment as a Tenant Improvement Allowance Item.

6.1.7       Prior to the commencement of construction, insurance certificates from Tenant’s Contractor evidencing insurance required hereunder.  Insurance certificates, if previously provided, need not be provided in connection with each payment request.

6.2          Payments.  Within the period provided in the Construction Contract, and subject to Tenant’s compliance with the provisions of Section 6.1 above, Landlord shall deliver a check, in payment of the lesser of: (a) either one hundred percent (100%) of the amounts so requested, or Landlord’s fifty percent (50%) share of the amounts so requested by Tenant, as applicable according to Section 6.1.1, (such payment shall be less a ten percent (10%) retention (the aggregate amount of such retentions to be known as the “Final Retention”) of the amount of that portion

of the request which is subject to the Construction Contract unless the payment request already reflects the Contractor’s Final Retention); or (b) the balance of any remaining available portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (not including the Final Retention unless the payment request already reflects the Contractor’s Final Retention).  Landlord’s payment of any amounts shall not be deemed Landlord’s approval or acceptance of the work furnished or materials supplied as set forth in Tenant’s payment request. If Tenant has not submitted the required mechanic’s lien waivers and releases from Tenant and Potential Lien Claimants, Landlord shall withhold from the disbursement an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the value of labor and/or materials for which a mechanic’s lien waiver and release was not submitted, and the balance of the payment request shall be disbursed by Landlordin accordance with this Section 6.2.  The payment check shall be made payable individually to Tenant, or, upon request by Tenant, to Tenant’s designee.

If Landlord fails to make a payment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.2 or Section 6.3 below, provided Landlord has not notified Tenant of any missing or disputed item in Tenant’s payment request, Tenant shall provide a notice to Landlord that the applicable payment has not been paid and it is Tenant’s intent to offset the amount of the requested payment (the “Offset Notice”) and if the requested payment is not made within fifteen (15) days of Landlord’s receipt of the Offset Notice, Tenant shall have the right to offset said unpaid amount against each month’s Monthly Installment of Basic Rent due under this Lease until the total amount of such unpaid payment has been recaptured by Tenant through such offset.

6.3          Contractor’s Final Retention.  Subject to the provisions of this Work Letter Agreement, a check for the Contractor’s Final Retention or, if applicable, the Final Retention, payable either (a) jointly to Tenant and any subcontractor if a lien claim has been filed by such subcontractor or (b) to Tenant, and shall be delivered by Landlord to Tenant within three (3) days after all of the following have occurred: (i) Tenant has delivered to Landlord original, properly executed mechanic’s lien releases in compliance with California Civil Code Section 3262(d)(3) from itself and any Potential Lien Claimants; (ii) Landlord’s reasonable determination that no substandard work by Tenant or any other agents of Tenant including the subcontractors of Tenant exists; (iii) Landlord’s reasonable determination that the construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises has been completed in accordance with the Approved Work Drawings; (iv) Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of two blue line sets of drawings with notations indicating material deviations between the actual construction and the Approved Work Drawings, prepared by Tenant or its Contractor; (v) all items required pursuant to Section 5.6 of this Exhibit “B”; and (vi) Tenant’s written certification that it has accepted the work, subject to punch list items, warranty items and latent defects.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that Tenant, Contractor or any major subcontractor files a mechanic’s lien against the Premises or does not submit the requisite mechanic’s lien releases, Landlord shall withhold from the Contractor’s Final Retention (or, if applicable, the Final Retention) an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the claimed amount or value of services and material until the requisite mechanic’s lien releases are delivered to Landlord and the balance of the Contractor’s Final Retention (or, if applicable, the Final Retention) shall be released.

6.4          Potential Lien Claimants.  The term “Potential Lien Claimants” shall mean Tenant and those persons and entities who are engaged by Tenant or its agents and are described in Sections 3110 and 3111 of the California Civil Code who are entitled to lien rights, but only to the extent that the claimant complies with the preliminary twenty (20) day notice requirement of Section 3087 of the California Civil Code, if required by such section.

6.5          Deposit of Tenant Improvement Allowance in Escrow.  If Landlord sells the Property prior to disbursement of the full Tenant Improvement Allowance, an amount equal to the undisbursed portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance as of the closing date for the sale of the Property shall be placed in an escrow account for Tenant’s benefit following the Closing at  an escrow company reasonably acceptable to Tenant and the buyer of the Property (“Buyer”). The Tenant and the Buyer shall submit commercially reasonable and mutually acceptable instructions to the escrow holder that are consistent with the terms of this Work Letter Agreements.  Such instructions shall require the escrow holder to make disbursements from the escrow upon Tenant’s submission of the documentation required under Section 6.1 and in accordance with the timing set forth in Section 6.1.

LETTER OF CREDIT TERMS

Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, as collateral for the full performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease and for all losses and damages Landlord may suffer as a result of any Default by Tenant under this Lease including, but not limited to, any post lease termination damages under section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code, a standby, irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”), substantially in the form of Exhibit “L” attached hereto or in such other form acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion and containing the terms required herein, in the face amount designated in Paragraph 1(n) (the “Letter of Credit Amount”), naming Landlord as beneficiary.  The Letter of Credit shall be issued by a money-center, solvent and nationally recognized bank (a bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local office in Orange County) that will negotiate a letter of credit, and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC (as defined below).  The issuing bank shall be acceptable to Landlord in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, and shall permit multiple and partial draws on the Letter of Credit.  Tenant shall cause the Letter of Credit to be continuously maintained in effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in the Letter of Credit Amount through the date (the “Letter of Credit Expiration Date”) which is thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Term of this Lease, or any extension thereof.  If the Letter of Credit held by Landlord expires earlier than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by the issuing bank), Tenant shall deliver a new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord.  Any renewal or replacement Letter of Credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 1, and shall remain in effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in the Letter of Credit Amount through the Letter of Credit Expiration Date upon the same terms as the expiring Letter of Credit or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion.

Landlord shall have the immediate right to draw up to the then-aggregate face amount of the Letter of Credit, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time (each of the following being an “Letter of Credit Draw Event”):  (i) If such amount is due and payable to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this Lease, beyond applicable notice and cure periods or (ii) if the Letter of Credit held by Landlord expires (or is set to expire) earlier than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by the issuing bank), and Tenant fails to deliver to Landlord, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, a renewal or substitute Letter of Credit that is in effect and that complies with the provisions of this Lease, including the amount of the Letter of Credit required under this Lease (such failure in this clause (ii) hereinafter being referred to as a “Renewal Failure”) following five (5) days notice to Tenant of the Renewal Failure; (iii) Tenant has filed a voluntary petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy code (collectively, “Bankruptcy Code”), (iv) an involuntary petition has been filed against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, (v) Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, or becomes subject to similar proceedings under Federal or State law; (vi) Tenant executes an assignment for the benefit of creditors and/or (vii) if (1) any of the issuing bank’s Fitch Ratings (or other comparable ratings to the extent the Fitch Ratings are no longer available) have been reduced below a “BBB+” rating, or (2) there is otherwise a material adverse change in the financial condition of the issuing bank, and Tenant has failed to provide Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit that complies with the provisions of this Lease, including the Letter of Credit Amount required under this Lease, within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary) (such failure in this clause (iii) hereinafter being referred to as an “Issuing Bank Replacement Failure”). No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner.  In addition, in the event the issuing bank is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any successor or similar entity (as applicable, the “FDIC”), and the FDIC does not honor the commitments of such issuing bank, then, effective as of the date such receivership or conservatorship occurs, the Letter of Credit shall be deemed to fail to meet the requirements of this Lease, and, within ten (10) days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such receivership or conservatorship (the “Letter of Credit FDIC Replacement Notice”), Tenant shall replace the Letter of Credit with a substitute letter of credit from a different issuer (which issuer shall be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion) and that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Lease.  If Tenant fails to replace the Letter of Credit with a conforming, substitute letter of credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 2 as a result of a Renewal Failure or an Issuing Bank

Replacement Failure, then, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to declare Tenant in Default of this Lease for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto (other than the aforesaid ten (10) day period).  Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all costs incurred with the review of any replacement Letter of Credit (including without limitation Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees), which replacement is required pursuant to this Section or is otherwise requested by Tenant.

Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is entering into this Lease in material reliance upon the ability of Landlord to draw upon the Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any Letter of Credit Draw Event.  Upon the occurrence of any Letter of Credit Draw Event, Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, and without additional notice to Tenant, draw upon the Letter of Credit, in part or in whole, to cure any such Letter of Credit Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it will sustain resulting from Tenant’s Default under this Lease or other Letter of Credit Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code. The use, application or retention of the Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Lease or by any applicable law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be required to proceed against the Letter of Credit, and such Letter of Credit shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit, either prior to or following a “draw” by Landlord of any portion of the Letter of Credit, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw upon the Letter of Credit. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner.  Tenant agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Letter of Credit constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the issuing bank, (ii) Tenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (iii) Tenant has no property interest whatsoever in the Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof, and (iv) in the event Tenant becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, and/or there is an event of a receivership, conservatorship or a bankruptcy filing by, or on behalf of, Tenant, neither Tenant, any trustee, nor Tenant’s bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Landlord’s claim and/or rights to the Letter of Credit and/or the proceeds thereof by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  If Landlord draws on the Letter of Credit due to a Renewal Failure or an Issuing Bank Replacement Failure and is holding those proceeds of the Letter of Credit before application due to any other Letter of Credit Draw Event (the “Letter of Credit Proceeds”) and has not elected to terminate this Lease due to Tenant’s failure to deliver a replacement letter of credit as required under Section 2 above, then Landlord agrees to return to Tenant the Letter of Credit Proceeds, provided that Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease (other than as a result of Tenant’s failure to deliver the replacement letter of credit) and Tenant concurrently delivers to Landlord a substitute letter of credit in the Letter of Credit Amount that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Lease (including, in the case of a Letter of Credit Issuing Bank Replacement Failure, a substitute Letter of Credit from a different issuer, which issuer shall be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion).  Nothing contained in the immediately preceding sentence shall imply that Landlord waives any right to declare Tenant in Default under this Lease due to a Renewal Failure or an Issuing Bank Replacement Failure.

If Landlord assigns or transfers its interest in this Lease, Landlord may, upon notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer all or any portion of its interest in and to the Letter of Credit to Landlord’s assignee, successor, transferee or mortgagee and/or to have the Letter of Credit reissued in the name of Landlord’s assignee, successor, transferee or mortgagee.  If Landlord transfers its interest in the Building and transfers the Letter of Credit (or any proceeds thereof then held by Landlord) in whole or in part to the transferee, Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties hereto, thereupon be released by Tenant from all liability therefor.  The provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of all or any part of the Letter of Credit to a new landlord.  In connection with any such transfer of the Letter of Credit by Landlord, Tenant shall execute and submit to the issuer of the Letter of Credit such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer.  Landlord shall be responsible to pay any then-applicable “market-rate” transfer fee in connection with such transfer

Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the Letter of Credit or any renewal of it or any proceeds of it be (1) deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” within the meaning of California Civil Code Section 1950.7, (2) subject to the terms of Section 1950.7, or (3) intended to serve as a “security

deposit” within the meaning of Section 1950.7.  Landlord and Tenant (1) further acknowledge and agree that the Letter of Credit is not intended to serve as a security deposit and Section 1950.7 and any and all other laws, rules, and regulations applicable to security deposits in the commercial context (“Security Deposit Laws”) shall have no applicability or relevancy to the Letter of Credit, and (2) waive any and all rights, duties, and obligations either party may now or in the future have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws.

SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

This Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated ______________, 2018 is made by and between ______________________________ (“Tenant”), and ACM CRE FUND I, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Lender”).

WHEREAS, on or about the date hereof, CIP 2014 SG ALISO OWNER LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its successors, assigns and all future owners of the Property (hereinafter defined), “Landlord”) and one or more of Landlord’s affiliates (collectively, “Borrower”) and Lender will enter into that certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which Lender will make a loan facility available to Borrower (the “Loan”) pursuant to the provisions of such Loan Agreement and the documents entered into in connection therewith (the “Loan Documents”), which Loan is secured by, among other things, a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or similar security instrument (as the same may have been or may be from time to time renewed, extended, amended or supplemented, the “Security Instrument”), to be recorded in the applicable land records, covering, among other property, the land (the “Land”) described in Exhibit A which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and the improvements (“Improvements”) thereon (such Land and Improvements being herein together called the “Property”);

WHEREAS, Tenant is the tenant under a lease from Landlord dated _________________ (as it may from time to time be renewed, extended, amended or supplemented, the “Lease”), covering a portion of the Property, more particularly described in the Lease (said portion being herein referred to as the “Premises”); and

WHEREAS, the term “Landlord” as used herein means the present landlord under the Lease or, if the landlord’s interest is transferred in any manner, the successor(s) or assign(s) occupying the position of landlord under the Lease at the time in question.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.            Subordination.  Tenant agrees and covenants that the Lease and the rights of Tenant thereunder, all of Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to the Property covered by the Lease, and any lease thereafter executed by Tenant covering any part of the Property, are and shall be subject, subordinate and inferior to (a) the Security Instrument and the rights of Lender thereunder, and all right, title and interest of Lender in the Property, and (b) all other security documents now or hereafter securing payment of any indebtedness of the Landlord (or any prior landlord) to Lender which cover or affect the Property (the “Security Documents”).  This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed

to subordinate the Lease to any deed of trust, mortgage or other security document other than those referred to in the preceding sentence, securing the Loan.

2.           Non-Disturbance.  Lender agrees that so long as the Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default in the payment of rent, additional rent or other payments or in the performance of any of the other terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be performed (beyond the period, if any, specified in the Lease within which Tenant may cure such default),

(a)          Tenant’s possession and use of the Premises under the Lease shall not be disturbed or interfered with by Lender in the exercise of any of its rights under the Security Instrument or in connection with any conveyance in lieu of foreclosure and the enforcement of the Security Instrument by the Lender shall not terminate the Lease, and

3.          Attornment.

(a)          Tenant covenants and agrees that in the event of foreclosure of the Security Instrument, whether by power of sale or by court action, or upon a transfer of the Property by conveyance in lieu of foreclosure (the purchaser at foreclosure or the transferee in lieu of foreclosure, including Lender if it is such purchaser or transferee, being herein called “New Owner”), Tenant shall attorn to the New Owner as Tenant’s new landlord, and agrees that the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Tenant and New Owner upon all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements set forth in the Lease and this Agreement, except for provisions which are impossible for New Owner to perform; provided, however, that in no event shall the New Owner be:

(i)           liable for any act, omission, default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty, of any previous landlord (including Landlord) or obligations accruing prior to New Owner’s actual ownership of the Property provided, however, that nothing contained in this subsection shall be deemed to release New Owner from any obligation it may have to cure any default under the Lease that is capable of being cured by New Owner and which continues after New Owner’s acquisition of Landlord’s interest in the Lease and;

(ii)          subject to any offset, defense, claim or counterclaim (that are not specifically provided for in the Lease or have accrued as a result of a default that is not capable of being cured by New Owner) which Tenant might be entitled to assert against any previous landlord (including Landlord);

(iii)         bound by any payment of rent, additional rent or other payments, made by Tenant to any previous landlord (including Landlord) for more than one (1) month in advance;

(iv)         bound by any material amendment or modification of the Lease hereafter made, or consent or acquiescence by any previous landlord (including Landlord) under the Lease to any assignment or sublease hereafter granted, without the written consent of Lender; or

(v)          liable for any deposit that Tenant may have given to any previous landlord (including Landlord) which has not, as such, been transferred to New Owner.

(b)          The provisions of this Agreement regarding attornment by Tenant shall be self-operative and effective without the necessity of execution of any new lease or other document on the part of any party hereto or the respective heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns of any such party.  Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver upon the request of New Owner, any instrument or certificate which in the reasonable judgment of New

Owner may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment, including a new lease of the Premises on the same terms and conditions as the Lease for the unexpired term of the Lease.

(c)          Nothing herein shall be construed as a waiver of any contractual claim that Tenant may have against Landlord, or as a release of Landlord from liability to Tenant, on account of the non-performance of any obligation of Landlord under the Lease.

4.           Estoppel Certificate.  Tenant agrees to execute and deliver from time to time, upon the request of Landlord or of any holder(s) of any of the indebtedness or obligations secured by the Security Instrument, a certificate regarding the status of the Lease, consisting of statements, if true (or if not, specifying why not), (a) that the Lease is in full force and effect, (b) the date through which rentals have been paid, (c) the date of the commencement of the term of the Lease, (d) the nature of any amendments or modifications of the Lease, (e) to the best of Tenant’s knowledge no default, or state of facts which with the passage of time or notice (or both) would constitute a default, exists under the Lease, (f) no setoffs, recoupments, estoppels, claims or counterclaims exist against Landlord, and (g) such other matters as may be reasonably requested.

5.          Acknowledgment and Agreement by Tenant.  Tenant acknowledges and agrees as follows:

(a)          Tenant acknowledges that the Security Instrument includes an assignment of leases and rents.  Tenant hereby expressly consents to such assignment and agrees that such assignment shall, in all respects, be superior to any interest Tenant has in the Lease of the Property, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.  Tenant will not amend, alter or waive any provision of, or consent to the amendment, alteration or waiver of any provision of the Lease without the prior written consent of Lender.  Tenant shall not prepay any rents or other sums due under the lease for more than one (1) month in advance of the due date therefor.  Tenant acknowledges that Lender will rely upon this instrument in connection with the making of the Loan and entering into the Loan Documents.

(b)          Lender, in making any disbursements to Landlord, is under no obligation or duty to oversee or direct the application of the proceeds of such disbursements, and such proceeds may be used by Landlord for purposes other than improvement of the Property.

(c)          From and after the date hereof, in the event of any act or omission by Landlord which would give Tenant the right, either immediately or after the lapse of time, to terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant will not exercise any such right (i) until it has given written notice of such act or omission to the Lender; and (ii) until the same period of time as is given to Landlord under the Lease to cure such act or omission shall have elapsed following such giving of notice to Lender, but in any event not less than thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice or, in the event the default is not readily capable of being cured by Lender without obtaining possession of the Property and Lender acts diligently to obtain possession of the Property and promptly cures or causes the cure of all such defaults that are capable of being cured without Lender’s obtaining possession of the Property, such longer period of time as may be necessary to obtain possession of the Property and thereafter cure such default, act, or omission, during which period of time Lender shall be permitted to cure or remedy such default, act or omission; provided, however, that Lender shall have no duty or obligation to cure or remedy any breach or default.  In the event Lender fails to cure said default, Tenant shall have all rights and remedies provided in the Lease.  It is specifically agreed that Tenant shall not, as to Lender, require cure of any such default which is personal to Landlord, and therefore not susceptible to cure by Lender.

(d)          In the event that Lender notifies Tenant of a default under the Security Instrument, Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents and demands that Tenant pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Lender, Tenant shall honor such demand and pay the full amount of its rent and all other sums due under the Lease directly to Lender, without offset, or as otherwise required pursuant to such notice, beginning with the payment next due after such notice of default (provided that such next payment is not due within ten (10) days from such notice from Lender), without inquiry as to whether a default actually exists under the Security Instrument, Loan Agreement or otherwise in connection with the other Loan Documents, and notwithstanding any contrary instructions of or demands from Landlord.

(e)          Tenant shall send a copy of any notice or statement under the Lease to Lender at the same time such notice or statement is sent to Landlord if such notice or statement has a material impact on the economic terms, operating covenants or duration of the Lease.

(f)           Tenant has no right or option of any nature whatsoever, whether pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, to purchase the Premises or the Property, or any portion thereof or any interest therein, and to the extent that Tenant has had, or hereafter acquires, any such right or option, same is hereby acknowledged to be subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument and is hereby waived and released as against Lender and New Owner.

(g)          This Agreement satisfies any condition or requirement in the Lease relating to the granting of a non-disturbance agreement and Tenant waives any requirement to the contrary in the Lease.

(h)          Lender and any New Owner shall have no liability to Tenant or any other party for any conflict between the provisions of the Lease and the provisions of any other lease affecting the Property, including, but not limited to, any provisions relating to exclusive or non-conforming uses or rights, renewal options and options to expand, and in the event of such a conflict, Tenant shall, subject to the foregoing, have the same rights it has pursuant to the Lease.

(i)           Lender and any New Owner shall have no obligation nor incur any liability with respect to the erection or completion of the improvements in which the Premises are located or for completion of the Premises or any improvements for Tenant’s use and occupancy, either at the commencement of the term of the Lease or upon any renewal or extension thereof or upon the addition of additional space, pursuant to any expansion rights contained in the Lease.

(j)           Lender and any New Owner shall have no obligation nor incur any liability with respect to any warranties of any nature whatsoever, whether pursuant to the Lease or otherwise, including, without limitation, any warranties respecting use, compliance with zoning, Landlord’s title, Landlord’s authority, habitability, fitness for purpose or possession.

(k)          In the event that Lender or any New Owner shall acquire title to the Premises or the Property, Lender or such New Owner shall have no obligation, nor incur any liability, beyond Lender’s or New Owner’s then equity interest, if any, in the Property or the Premises, and Tenant shall look exclusively to such equity interest of Lender or New Owner, if any, for the payment and discharge of any obligations imposed upon Lender or New Owner hereunder or under the Lease or for recovery of any judgment from Lender, or New Owner, and in no event shall Lender, New Owner, nor any of their respective officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, servants, employees or partners ever be personally liable for such judgment.

(l)           Tenant will not permit, the generation, treatment, storage or disposal of any hazardous substance as defined under federal, state, or local law, on the Premises or Property except for such substances of a type and only in a quantity normally used in connection with the occupancy or operation of buildings such as the Improvements, which substances are being held, stored, and used in strict compliance with federal, state, and local laws.   Tenant shall be solely responsible for and shall reimburse and indemnify Landlord, New Owner or Lender, as applicable, for any loss, liability, claim or expense, including without limitation, cleanup and all other reasonable expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees that Landlord, New Owner or Lender, as applicable, may incur by reason of Tenant’s use of the Premises subsequent to the date hereof in violation of the requirements of this Paragraph 5(l).

6.           Intentionally Omitted.

7.           Lease Status.  Tenant certifies to Lender that Tenant has no knowledge of any default on the part of Landlord or Tenant under the Lease, that the Lease is bona fide and contains all of the agreements of the parties thereto with respect to the letting of the Premises and that all of the agreements and provisions therein contained are in full force and effect.

8.           Notices.  All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or which any party desires to give hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by telegram, telex, or facsimile, by expedited delivery service with proof of delivery, or by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, at the addresses specified at the end of this Agreement (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed).  Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of delivery service or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of telegram, telex or facsimile, upon receipt.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon receipt. This Paragraph 8 shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Agreement or in the Lease or in any document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the loan evidenced by the Note or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any person in any situation or for any reason.

9.          Miscellaneous.

(a)          This Agreement supersedes any inconsistent provision of the Lease.

(b)          Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to derogate from or in any way impair, or affect the lien, security interest or provisions of the Security Instrument, Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents.

(c)          This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns, and any New Owner, and its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that in the event of the assignment or transfer of the interest of Lender, all obligations and liabilities of the assigning Lender under this Agreement shall terminate, and thereupon all such obligations and liabilities shall be the responsibility of the party to whom Lender’s interest is assigned or transferred; and provided further that the interest of Tenant under this Agreement may not be assigned or transferred without the prior written consent of Lender.

(d)          THIS AGREEMENT AND ITS VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND APPLICABLE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW EXCEPT ONLY TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, THAT THE LAWS OF THE STATE IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED NECESSARILY CONTROL.

(e)          The words “herein”,  “hereof”,  “hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” as used in this Agreement refer to this entire Agreement and not to any particular section or provision.

(f)           This Agreement may not be modified orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest.

(g)          If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not apply to or affect any other provision hereof, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability did not exist.
