Further, if Sublessee is required to perform any other conditions prior to or concurrent with the Start Date, the Start Date shall occur but Sublessor may elect to withhold possession until such conditions are satisfied.

4. Rent and Other Charges.

4.1 Rent Defined. All monetary obligations of Sublessee to Sublessor under the terms of this Sublease are deemed to be rent (“Rent”). Rent shall be payable in lawful money of the United States, or by means of other consideration, to Sublessor at the address stated herein or to such other persons or at such other places as Sublessor may designate in writing.

a. Common Area Operating Expenses. Sublessee shall not be required to pay Common Area Operating Expenses to Sublessor during the term

4.2 Payment. Sublessee shall cause payment of Rent to be received by Sublessor in lawful money of the United States on or before the day on which it is due, without offset or deduction. Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of said month. Payment of Rent shall be made to Sublessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or place as Sublessor may from time to time designate in writing. Acceptance of a payment which is less than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of Sublessor’s rights to the balance of such Rent, regardless of Sublessor’s endorsement of any check so stating. In the event that any check, draft, or other instrument of payment given by Sublessee to Sublessor is dishonored for any reason, Sublessee agrees to pay to Sublessor the sum of $25.

4.3 Utilities. Sublessee shall pay for all gas, heat, light, power, telephone, trash disposal and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon.

5. Security Deposit and Default. Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor upon execution hereof the Security Deposit as security for Sublessee’s faithful performance of its obligations under this Lease. If Sublessee fails to pay Rent or other charges or otherwise Defaults under this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said Security Deposit for the payment of any amount due Sublessor or to reimburse or compensate Sublessor for any liability, expense, loss or damage which Sublessor may suffer or incur by reason thereof. Sublessee waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7, and all other provisions of law now in force or that become in force after the date of execution of this Sublease, that provide that Sublessor may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of Rent, to repair damage caused by Sublessee, or to clean the Subleased Premises. If Sublessor uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Sublessee shall within 10 days after written request therefor deposit monies with Sublessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease and Sublessee’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Sublease. Sublessor’s application or retention of the Security Deposit shall not constitute a waiver of Sublessee’s default to the extent that the Security Deposit does not fully compensate Sublessor for all losses or damages incurred by Sublessor in connection with such Default and shall not prejudice any other rights or remedies available to Sublessor under this Sublease or by law. If the Base Rent increases during the term of this Lease, Sublessee shall, upon written request from Sublessor, deposit additional moneys with Sublessor so that the total amount of the Security Deposit shall at all times bear the same proportion to the increased Base Rent as the initial Security Deposit bore to the initial Base Rent. Should the Agreed Use be amended to accommodate a material change in the business of Sublessee or to accommodate a sublessee or assignee, Sublessor shall have the right to increase the Security Deposit to the extent necessary, in Sublessor’s reasonable judgment, to account for any increased wear and tear that the Premises may suffer as a result thereof. If a change in control of Sublessee occurs during this Sublease and following such change the financial condition of Sublessee is, in Sublessor’s reasonable judgment, significantly reduced, Sublessee shall deposit such additional monies with Sublessor as shall be sufficient to cause the Security Deposit to be at a commercially reasonable level based on such change in financial condition. Sublessor shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Within 14 days after the expiration or termination of this Lease, if Sublessor elects to apply the Security Deposit only to unpaid Rent, and otherwise within 30 days after the Premises have been vacated pursuant to this Sublease, Sublessor shall return that portion of the Security Deposit not used or applied by Sublessor. No part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in trust, to bear interest or to be prepayment for any monies to be paid by Sublessee under this Lease.

6. Agreed Use. The Premises shall be used and occupied only for office and warehouse uses and for no other purpose.
