CLOSING CERTIFICATE
AND AGREEMENT
(MOFFETT BUSINESS CENTER)

     This CLOSING CERTIFICATE AND AGREEMENT (MOFFETT BUSINESS CENTER) (this “Certificate”), dated as of November 29, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and between BNP PARIBAS LEASING CORPORATION (“BNPPLC”), a Delaware corporation, and NETWORK APPLIANCE, INC. (“NAI”), a Delaware corporation.

RECITALS

     Contemporaneously with the execution of this Certificate, BNPPLC and NAI are executing a Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement (Moffett Business Center) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement”), which by this reference is incorporated into and made a part of this Certificate for all purposes. As used in this Certificate, capitalized terms defined in the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Certificate are intended to have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement.

     Also contemporaneously with this Certificate, BNPPLC is acquiring the Land described in Exhibit A and existing Improvements on the Land pursuant to the Existing Contract.

     Also contemporaneously with this Certificate, BNPPLC and NAI are executing a Lease Agreement (Moffett Business Center) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Lease”), pursuant to which NAI is leasing from BNPPLC the Land, which is described in Exhibit A, and all Improvements on such Land.

     Also contemporaneously with this Certificate, BNPPLC and NAI are executing a Purchase Agreement (Moffett Business Center) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which NAI may purchase or arrange for the purchase of the Property and BNPPLC may collect a Supplemental Payment from NAI sufficient to cover all or a substantial portion of the Lease Balance not otherwise repaid to BNPPLC from the proceeds of any sale of the Property.

     As a condition to BNPPLC’s acquisition of the Land and its execution of the other Operative Documents, BNPPLC requires the representations and covenants of NAI set out below.

AGREEMENTS

     In consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1 Representations, Covenants and Acknowledgments of NAI Concerning the Property. To induce BNPPLC to purchase the Property from the Prior Owner and to enter into this Certificate and the other Operative Documents, NAI represents, covenants and acknowledges as follows:

     (A) Prior Inspections and Investigations Concerning the Property. NAI has thoroughly inspected, investigated and evaluated the condition of and title to the Property and Applicable Laws which will govern the use and operation of the Property required or permitted by the Operative Documents, as necessary to make the representations concerning the Property set forth in this Certificate and other Operative Documents.

     (B) Title. Because of the conveyance from the Prior Owner to BNPPLC contemporaneously with the execution of this Certificate, good and indefeasible title to the Land and Improvements is currently vested in BNPPLC, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances described in Exhibit B, the rights of NAI itself under the Operative Documents and any Liens Removable by BNPPLC. NAI will not, without the prior consent of BNPPLC, create, place or authorize, or through any act or failure to act, acquiesce to or suffer the placing of, any deed of trust, mortgage or other Lien, whether statutory, constitutional or contractual against or covering the Property or any part thereof (other than Permitted Encumbrances and Liens Removable by BNPPLC), regardless of whether the same are expressly or otherwise subordinate to the Operative Documents or BNPPLC’s interest in the Property.

     (C) Title Insurance. Without limiting NAI’s obligations under the preceding subparagraph, contemporaneously with the execution of this Certificate NAI must provide to BNPPLC a title insurance policy or binder committing the applicable title insurer to issue a title insurance policy, without the payment of further premiums (as the case may be, the “Title Policy”) in an amount equal to the purchase price paid by BNPPLC to the Prior Owner for the Property, in form and substance satisfactory to BNPPLC (including comprehensive, survey, variable rate, access, and such other endorsements as may be requested by BNPPLC), written by one or more title insurance companies satisfactory to BNPPLC and insuring BNPPLC’s fee estate in the Land and Improvements.

     (D) Condition of the Property. The Land described in Exhibit A is the same as the land described in the Title Policy and as shown on the plat included as part of the ALTA/ACSM Survey prepared by Kier & Wright, Civil Engineers & Surveyors, Inc., dated October 8, 2007, Job No. A07175 (the “Survey”), which survey was delivered to BNPPLC at the request of NAI. All material improvements on the Land as of the Effective Date are as shown on the Survey, and except as shown on the Survey there are no easements or encroachments encumbering or affecting the Property. No part of the Land is within a flood plain as designated by any governmental authority. The Improvements are in good condition, free from latent or patent defects or deficiencies that, either individually or in the aggregate, could materially and adversely affect the use or occupancy of the Property as permitted by the Lease or could

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 2

reasonably be anticipated to cause injury or death to any person. The Property and use thereof permitted by the Lease comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws, including laws regarding access and use by disabled persons and local zoning ordinances. Adequate provision has been made for the Property to be served by electric, gas, storm and sanitary sewers, sanitary water supply, telephone and other utilities required for the use thereof. All streets, alleys and easements necessary to serve the Property for the uses permitted by the Lease have been completed and are serviceable. No extraordinary circumstances (including any use of the Land as a habitat for endangered species) exist that would materially and adversely affect such uses of the Property. The Improvements are useable for their intended purpose without the need to obtain any additional easements, rights-of-way or concessions from any third party or parties.

     (E) Environmental Representations. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Environmental Report, to the knowledge of NAI: (i) no Hazardous Substances Activity has occurred prior to the Effective Date; (ii) no owner or operator of the Property has reported or been required to report any release of any Hazardous Substances on or from the Property pursuant to any Environmental Law; and (iii) no owner or operator of the Property has received from any federal, state or local governmental authority any warning, citation, notice of violation or other communication regarding a suspected or known release or discharge of Hazardous Substances on or from the Property or regarding a suspected or known violation of Environmental Laws concerning the Property. Further, NAI represents, to its knowledge, that the Environmental Report taken as a whole is not misleading or inaccurate in any material respect.

     (F) Cooperation by NAI and its Affiliates.

     (1) After the Designated Sale Date, if neither NAI nor an Applicable Purchaser has purchased BNPPLC’s interest in the Property pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and if a use of the Property by BNPPLC or any new Improvements or any removal or modification of Improvements proposed by BNPPLC would violate any Permitted Encumbrance or Applicable Law unless NAI or any of its Affiliates, as an owner of adjacent property or otherwise, gave its consent or approval thereto or agreed to join in a modification of a Permitted Encumbrance, then NAI must give and cause its Affiliates to give such consent or approval or join in such modification.

     (2) After the Designated Sale Date, if neither NAI nor an Applicable Purchaser has purchased BNPPLC’s interest in the Property pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and if any Permitted Encumbrance or Applicable Law requires the consent or approval of NAI or any of its Affiliates or of any other Person to an assignment of any interest in the Property by BNPPLC or by any of its successors or assigns, NAI will without charge give and cause its Affiliates to give such consent or approval and will cooperate in any way reasonably requested by BNPPLC to assist BNPPLC to obtain such consent or approval from the other Person.

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 3

     (3) NAI’s obligations under this subparagraph 1(F) will be binding upon any successor or assign of NAI or its Affiliates with respect to the Land and other properties encumbered or benefitted by the Permitted Encumbrances, and such obligations will survive any sale of the Property by BNPPLC, other than to NAI or an Applicable Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement, for the benefit of BNPPLC’s assignees.

     (G) Compliance with Covenants and Laws. The use of the Property permitted by the Lease complies, or will comply after NAI obtains readily available permits ( as the tenant under the Lease), in all material respects with all Applicable Laws. NAI has obtained or can and will promptly obtain all utility, building, health and operating permits required by any governmental authority or municipality having jurisdiction over the Property for the use of the Property permitted by the Lease.

2 Representations and Covenants by NAI. NAI also represents and covenants to BNPPLC as follows:

     (A) Concerning NAI and the Operative Documents.

     (1) Entity Status. NAI is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing in the State of Delaware and is authorized to do business in and is in good standing under the laws of California.

     (2) Authority. The Constituent Documents of NAI permit the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents by NAI, and all actions and approvals necessary to bind NAI under the Operative Documents have been taken and obtained. Without limiting the foregoing, the Operative Documents will be binding upon NAI when signed on behalf of NAI by Ingemar Lanevi, Vice President and Corporate Treasurer of NAI. NAI has all requisite power and all governmental certificates of authority, licenses, permits and qualifications to carry on its business as now conducted and contemplated to be conducted and to perform the Operative Documents.

     (3) Solvency. NAI is not “insolvent” on the Effective Date (that is, the sum of NAI’s absolute and contingent liabilities — including the obligations of NAI under the Operative Documents — does not exceed the fair market value of NAI’s assets), and NAI has no outstanding liens, suits, garnishments or court actions which could render NAI insolvent or bankrupt. NAI’s capital is adequate for the businesses in which NAI is engaged and intends to be engaged. NAI has not incurred (whether by the Operative Documents or otherwise), nor does NAI intend to incur or believe that it will incur, debts which will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature. No petition or answer has been filed by or, to NAI’s knowledge, against NAI in bankruptcy or other legal proceedings that seeks an assignment for the benefit of creditors, the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator with respect to NAI or any significant portion of

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 4

NAI’s property, a reorganization, arrangement, rearrangement, composition, extension, liquidation or dissolution of NAI or similar relief under the federal Bankruptcy Code or any state law.

     (4) Financial Reports. All reports, financial statements and other data furnished by NAI to BNPPLC in connection with the agreements set forth in the Operative Documents are true and correct in all material respects and do not omit to state any fact or circumstance necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. No material adverse change has occurred since the dates of such reports, statements and other data in the financial condition of NAI.

     (5) Pending Legal Proceedings. No judicial or administrative investigations, actions, suits or proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of NAI, threatened against or affecting NAI by or before any court or other Governmental Authority that have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. NAI is not in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any court or other Governmental Authority in a manner that has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (6) No Default or Violation. The execution and performance by NAI of the Operative Documents do not and will not contravene or result in a breach of or default under any other agreement to which NAI is a party or by which NAI is bound or which affects any assets of NAI. Such execution and performance by NAI do not contravene any law, order, decree, rule or regulation to which NAI is subject. Further, such execution and performance by NAI will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or security interest in, any property of NAI pursuant to the provisions of any such other agreement.

     (7) Use of Proceeds. In no event will the funds from any Funding Advance be used directly or indirectly for personal, family, household or agricultural purposes or for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing, acquiring or carrying any “margin stock” or any “margin securities” (as such terms are defined in Regulation U promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or to extend credit to others directly or indirectly for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock or margin securities. NAI represents that NAI is not engaged principally, or as one of NAI’s important activities, in the business of extending credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying such margin stock or margin securities.

     (8) Enforceability. The Operative Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of NAI enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 5

     (9) Pari Passu. The claims of BNPPLC against NAI under the Operative Documents rank at least pari passu with the claims of all its other unsecured creditors, except those whose claims are preferred solely by any laws of general application having effect in relation to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or other similar events.

     (10) Conduct of Business and Maintenance of Existence. So long as any obligations of NAI under the Operative Documents remain outstanding, NAI will continue to engage in business of the same general type as now conducted by it and will preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of business.

     (11) Investment Company Act, etc. NAI is not and will not become, by reason of the Operative Documents or any business or transactions in which it participates voluntarily, (a) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” (as each of the quoted terms is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), or (b) subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act, or any foreign, federal or local statute or regulation limiting NAI’s ability to incur or guarantee indebtedness or obligations, or to pledge its assets to secure indebtedness or obligations, as contemplated by any of the Operative Documents.

     (12) Not a Foreign Person. NAI is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the Code (i.e. NAI is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as those terms are defined in the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder).

     (13) ERISA. NAI is not and will not become an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA. The assets of NAI do not and will not in the future constitute “plan assets” of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101. NAI is not and will not become a “governmental plan” within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA. Transactions by or with NAI are not subject to state statutes regulating investments of and fiduciary obligations with respect to governmental plans. No ERISA Termination Event has occurred with respect to any Plan, and NAI and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with ERISA. Neither NAI nor its Subsidiaries are required to contribute to, or has any other absolute or contingent liability in respect of, any Multiemployer Plan. As of the Effective Date no “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 412(a) of the Code) exists with respect to any Plan, whether or not waived by the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate, and there are no Unfunded Benefit Liabilities with respect to any Plan.

     (14) Compliance With Laws. NAI and its Subsidiaries comply and will comply with all Applicable Laws (including environmental laws and ERISA and the rules and

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 6

regulations thereunder), except when the necessity of compliance is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings which do not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither NAI nor its Subsidiaries have received any notice asserting or describing a material failure on the part of NAI or any Subsidiary to comply with Applicable Laws, other than failures that have been fully rectified by NAI or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, in a manner approved or accepted by Governmental Authorities responsible for the enforcement of the Applicable Laws.

     (15) Payment of Taxes Generally. Except when the failure to do so does not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (taking into account any appropriate contest of taxes), NAI and its Subsidiaries have filed and will file all tax declarations, reports and returns which are required by (and in the form required by) Applicable Laws and have paid and will pay all taxes or other charges shown to be due and payable on such declarations, reports and returns and all assessments made against it or its assets by any Governmental Authority; and no liens have been filed or established by any Governmental Authority against NAI or its assets or against any Subsidiary or its assets to secure the payment of taxes or assessments that are past due or claimed to be past due.

     (16) Maintenance of Insurance Generally. Except when the failure to do so does not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, NAI and its Subsidiaries have maintained and will maintain insurance with respect to its properties and businesses, with financially sound and reputable insurers, having coverages against losses or damages of the kinds customarily insured against by reputable companies in the same or similar businesses, such insurance being the types, and in amounts no less than the amounts, which are customary for such companies under similar circumstances.

     (17) Franchises, Licenses, etc. Except when the failure to do so does not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, NAI and its Subsidiaries have and comply with, and will have and will comply with, all franchises, certificates, licenses, permits and other authorizations from Governmental Authorities that are necessary for the ownership, maintenance and operation of its properties and assets.

     (18) Patents, Trademarks, etc. Except when the failure to do so does not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, NAI and its Subsidiaries have and will have and maintain in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other such rights, free from burdensome restrictions, which are necessary for the operation of its businesses. Without limiting the foregoing, to the knowledge of NAI, no product, process, method, service or other item presently sold by or employed by NAI or any Subsidiary in

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 7

connection with its business as presently conducted infringes any patents, trademark, service mark, trade name, copyright, license or other right owned by any other Person. No claim or litigation is presently pending, or to the knowledge of NAI, threatened against or affecting NAI or any Subsidiary that contests its right to sell or use any such product, process, method, substance or other item and that has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (19) Labor. Neither NAI nor any of its Subsidiaries has experienced strikes, labor disputes, slow downs or work stoppages due to labor disagreements that currently have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and to the knowledge of NAI there are no such strikes, disputes, slow downs or work stoppages threatened against it or against any Subsidiary. The hours worked and payment made to employees of NAI and its Subsidiaries have not been in violation in any material respect of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other Applicable Laws dealing with such matters. All material payments due on account of wages or employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits from NAI or from any Subsidiary have been paid or accrued as liabilities on its books.

     (20) Title to Properties Generally. Except when the failure to do so does not have and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, NAI and its Subsidiaries have and will have and maintain good and indefeasible fee simple title to or valid leasehold interests in all of its real property and good title to or a valid leasehold interest in all of its other material assets, as such properties and assets are reflected in the most recent financial statements delivered to BNPPLC, other than properties or assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since such date; subject, however, in the case of the Property, to Permitted Encumbrances and Liens created by the Operative Documents. NAI enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all of its leases.

     (21) Books and Records. NAI will keep proper books of record and account, containing complete and accurate entries of all its financial and business transactions.

     (B) Further Assurances. NAI will, upon the reasonable request of BNPPLC, (i) execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of the Operative Documents and to subject to any of the Operative Documents any property intended by the terms thereof to be covered thereby, including specifically, but without limitation, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements or appurtenances to the Property; (ii) execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure and record or file any document or instrument deemed advisable by BNPPLC to protect its rights in and to the Property against the rights or interests of third persons; and (iii) provide such certificates, documents, reports, information, affidavits and other instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper in the reasonable determination of BNPPLC to enable BNPPLC to comply with the requirements or requests of

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 8

any agency or authority having jurisdiction over it.

     (C) Syndication. Without limiting the foregoing, NAI will cooperate with BNPPLC as reasonably required to allow BNPPLC to induce banks not affiliated with BNPPLC to become Participants. Such cooperation will include the execution of any modification proposed by BNPPLC to any of the Operative Documents at the request of a prospective Participant; subject, however, to the conditions that (i) in no event will NAI be required to approve or accept an increase in the Spread or other modifications that change the economics of the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents to NAI, and (ii) in other respects the form and substance of any such modification agreement must not be reasonably objectionable to NAI.

     (D) Financial Statements; Required Notices; Certificates. Throughout the Term of the Lease, NAI will deliver to BNPPLC and to each Participant of which NAI has been notified:

     (1) as soon as available and in any event within 45 days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of NAI, the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of NAI and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such quarter and consolidated unaudited statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flow of NAI and its Subsidiaries for the period commencing at the end of the previous fiscal year and ending with the end of such quarter, setting forth in comparative form figures for the corresponding period in the preceding fiscal year, in the case of such statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flow, and figures for the preceding fiscal year in the case of such balance sheet, all in reasonable detail, in accordance with GAAP, and certified in a manner acceptable to BNPPLC by a Responsible Financial Officer of NAI (subject to normal year-end adjustments); provided, that so long as NAI is a company subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, NAI will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this clause (1) if NAI delivers to BNPPLC the same quarterly reports, certified by a Responsible Financial Officer of NAI (subject to year-end adjustments), that NAI delivers to its shareholders;

     (2) as soon as available and in any event within ninety days after the end of each fiscal year of NAI, the consolidated balance sheet of NAI and its Subsidiaries as of the end of such fiscal year and consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flow of NAI and its Subsidiaries for the period commencing at the end of the previous fiscal year and ending with the end of such fiscal year, setting forth in comparative form figures for the preceding fiscal year, all in reasonable detail, in accordance with GAAP, and certified in a manner acceptable to BNPPLC by independent public accountants of recognized national standing reasonably acceptable to BNPPLC; provided, that so long as NAI is a company subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, NAI will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this clause (ii) if NAI delivers to BNPPLC the

BNPPLC is hereby authorized to deliver a copy of any information or certificate delivered to it pursuant to this subparagraph 2(D) to any Participant and to any regulatory body having jurisdiction over BNPPLC, BNPPLC’s Parent or any Participant that requires or requests it.

     (E) Omissions. None of NAI’s representations in the Operative Documents or in any other document, certificate or written statement furnished to BNPPLC by or on behalf of NAI contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein (when taken in their entireties) not misleading.

(In clause (b) of this definition, “capitalized portion” means, with respect to any synthetic lease, the price for which the lessee can purchase the leased property or could purchase it if the synthetic lease expired on the date of the applicable calculation of the Consolidated Debt for Borrowed Money. Thus, for example, the “capitalized portion” of the transactions governed by the Operative Documents will equal the Lease Balance.)

     (2) Minimum Liquidity. NAI and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall maintain, at all times, Liquidity of not less than $300,000,000.

4 Limited Representations and Covenants of BNPPLC

     (A) Concerning Accounting Matters.

     (1) To permit NAI to determine the appropriate accounting for NAI’s relationship with BNPPLC under FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”), BNPPLC represents that to the knowledge of BNPPLC the fair value of the Property and of other properties, if any, leased to NAI by BNPPLC (collectively, whether one or more, the “Properties Leased to NAI”) are, as of the Effective Date, less than half of the total of the fair values of all assets of BNPPLC, excluding any assets of BNPPLC held within a silo. Further, none of the Properties Leased to NAI are, as of the Effective Date, held within a silo. Consistent with the directions of NAI (based upon the current interpretation of FIN 46 by NAI and its auditors), and for purposes of this representation only:

	•		“held within a silo” means, with respect to any asset or group of assets leased by BNPPLC to a single lessee or group of affiliated lessees, that BNPPLC has obtained funds equal to or in excess of 95% of the fair value of the leased asset or group of assets to acquire or maintain its investment in such asset or group of assets through non-recourse financing or other contractual arrangements (such as targeted equity or bank participations), the effect of which is to leave such asset or group of assets (or proceeds thereof) as the only significant asset or assets of BNPPLC at risk for the repayment of such funds;
	•		“fair value” means, with respect to any asset, the amount for which the asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 26

negotiated at arms length between willing parties (that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale);

	•		with respect to the Properties Leased to NAI (regardless of how BNPPLC accounts for the leases of the Properties Leased to NAI), and with respect to other assets that are subject to leases accounted for by BNPPLC as operating leases pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement 13 (“FAS 13”), fair value is determined without regard to residual value guarantees, remarketing agreements, non-recourse financings, purchase options or other contractual arrangements, whether made by BNPPLC with NAI or with other parties, that might otherwise impact the fair value of such assets;
	•		with respect to assets, other than Properties Leased to NAI, that are subject to leases accounted for by BNPPLC as leveraged leases pursuant to FAS 13, fair value is determined on a gross basis prior to the application of leveraged lease accounting, recognizing that equity investments made by BNPPLC in its assets subject to leveraged lease accounting should be grossed up in applying this test (however, equity investments made by BNPPLC through another legal entity should not be so grossed up in applying this test);
	•		with respect to assets, other than Properties Leased to NAI, that are subject to leases accounted for by BNPPLC as direct financing leases pursuant to FAS 13, fair value is determined as the sum of the fair values (considering current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities) of the corresponding finance lease receivables and related unguaranteed residual values.

     (2) BNPPLC also represents that BNPPLC’s Parent is, as of the Effective Date, including BNPPLC as a consolidated subsidiary in the audited financial statements issued by BNPPLC’s Parent.

     (3) BNPPLC covenants that, as reasonably requested by NAI from time to time with respect to any accounting period during which the Lease is or was in effect, BNPPLC will provide to NAI confirmation of facts concerning BNPPLC and its assets as necessary to permit NAI to determine the proper accounting for the Lease (including updates of the facts set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above); except that BNPPLC will not be required by this provision to (w) provide any information that is not in the possession

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 27

or control of BNPPLC or its Affiliates, (x) disclose the specific terms and conditions of its leases or other transactions with other parties or the names of such parties, (y) make disclosures prohibited by any law applicable to BNPPLC or BNPPLC’s Parent, or (z) disclose any other information that is protected from disclosure by confidentiality provisions in favor of such other parties or would be protected if their agreements with BNPPLC contained confidentiality provisions similar in scope and substance to any confidentiality provisions set forth in the Operative Documents for the benefit of NAI or its Affiliates. BNPPLC will represent that information provided by it pursuant to this clause is true and complete in all material respects, but only to the knowledge of BNPPLC as of the date it is provided, utilizing the form of the certificate attached hereto as Exhibit E (signed by an officer of BNPPLC), which certificate will be provided periodically by BNPPLC within five business days of reasonable written request therefor by NAI as provided above, or such longer period of time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances in order for BNPPLC to confirm such information.

     (4) Although the representations required of BNPPLC by this subparagraph are intended to cover facts, it is understood and agreed (consistent with subparagraph 4(C) of the Lease) that BNPPLC has not made and will not make any representation or warranty as to the proper accounting by NAI or its Affiliates of the Lease or as to other accounting conclusions.

     (B) Other Limited Representations. BNPPLC represents that:

     (1) Entity Status. BNPPLC is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware.

     (2) Authority. The Constituent Documents of BNPPLC permit the execution, delivery and performance of the Operative Documents by BNPPLC, and all actions and approvals necessary to bind BNPPLC under the Operative Documents have been taken and obtained. Without limiting the foregoing, the Operative Documents will be binding upon BNPPLC when signed on behalf of BNPPLC by Lloyd G. Cox, Managing Director of BNPPLC. BNPPLC has all requisite power and all governmental certificates of authority, licenses, permits and qualifications to carry on its business as now conducted and contemplated to be conducted and to perform the Operative Documents, except that BNPPLC makes no representation as to whether it has obtained governmental certificates of authority, licenses, permits, qualifications or other documentation required by state or local Applicable Laws. With regard to any such state or local requirements, NAI may require that BNPPLC obtain a specific governmental certificates of authority, licenses, permits, qualifications or other documentation pursuant to subparagraph 4(C), subject to the conditions set forth in that subparagraph.

     (3) Solvency. BNPPLC is not “insolvent” on the Effective Date (that is, the

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 28

sum of BNPPLC’s absolute and contingent liabilities — including the obligations of BNPPLC under the Operative Documents — does not exceed the fair market value of BNPPLC’s assets), and BNPPLC has no outstanding liens, suits, garnishments or court actions which could render BNPPLC insolvent or bankrupt. BNPPLC’s capital is adequate for the businesses in which BNPPLC is engaged and intends to be engaged. BNPPLC has not incurred (whether by the Operative Documents or otherwise), nor does BNPPLC intend to incur or believe that it will incur, debts which will be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature. No petition or answer has been filed by or, to BNPPLC’s knowledge, against BNPPLC in bankruptcy or other legal proceedings that seeks an assignment for the benefit of creditors, the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator with respect to BNPPLC or any significant portion of BNPPLC’s property, a reorganization, arrangement, rearrangement, composition, extension, liquidation or dissolution of BNPPLC or similar relief under the federal Bankruptcy Code or any state law. (As used in the Operative Documents, “BNPPLC’s knowledge” and words of like effect mean the present actual knowledge of Lloyd G. Cox and Barry Mendelsohn, the current officers of BNPPLC having primary responsibility for the negotiation of the Operative Documents.)

     (4) Pending Legal Proceedings. No judicial or administrative investigations, actions, suits or proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of BNPPLC, threatened against or affecting BNPPLC by or before any court or other Governmental Authority. BNPPLC is not in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any court or other Governmental Authority in a manner that has or could reasonably be expected to have a a material adverse effect on BNPPLC or its ability to perform its obligations under the Operative Documents.

     (5) No Default or Violation. The execution and performance by BNPPLC of the Operative Documents do not and will not contravene or result in a breach of or default under any other agreement to which BNPPLC is a party or by which BNPPLC is bound or which affects any assets of BNPPLC. Such execution and performance by BNPPLC do not contravene any law, order, decree, rule or regulation to which BNPPLC is subject. Further, such execution and performance by BNPPLC will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien, charge or encumbrance on, or security interest in, any property of BNPPLC pursuant to the provisions of any such other agreement.

     (6) Enforceability. The Operative Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of BNPPLC enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

     (7) Conduct of Business and Maintenance of Existence. So long as any of the

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 29

Operative Documents remains in force, BNPPLC will continue to engage in business of the same general type as now conducted by it and will preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and its rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of business.

     (8) Not a Foreign Person. BNPPLC is not a “foreign person” within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the Code (i.e. BNPPLC is not a non-resident alien, foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as those terms are defined in the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however or any other provision herein or in other Operative Documents to the contrary, it is understood that NAI is not relying upon BNPPLC for any evaluation of California or local Applicable Laws upon the transactions contemplated in the Operative Documents, and BNPPLC makes no representation and will not make any representation that conditions imposed by zoning ordinances or other state or local Applicable Laws to the purchase, ownership, lease or operation of the Property have been satisfied.

     (C) Further Assurances. During the Term of the Lease BNPPLC will take any action reasonably requested by NAI to facilitate the use of the Property permitted by the Lease; subject, however, to the following terms and conditions:

     (1) This subparagraph 4(C) will not impose upon BNPPLC the obligation to take any action that can be taken by NAI, NAI’s Affiliates or anyone else other than BNPPLC in its capacity as the owner of the Property.

     (2) BNPPLC will not be required by this subparagraph 4(C) to incur any expense or to make any payments to another Person unless BNPPLC has received funds from NAI, in excess of any other amounts due from NAI under any of the Operative Documents, sufficient to cover all such expenses or payments or other Persons.

     (3) BNPPLC will not be required by this subparagraph 4(C) to incur or assume any significant potential liability to another Person.

     (4) BNPPLC will have no obligations whatsoever under this subparagraph 4(C) at any time when a Default has occurred and is continuing.

     (5) NAI must request any action to be taken by BNPPLC pursuant to this subparagraph 4(C), and such request must be specific and in writing, if required by BNPPLC at the time the request is made.

     (6) No action may be required of BNPPLC pursuant to this subparagraph 4(C) that could constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws or compromise or constitute a

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 30

waiver of BNPPLC’s rights under other provisions of this Certificate or any of the other Operative Documents or that for any other reason is reasonably objectionable to BNPPLC.

     The actions BNPPLC will take pursuant to this subparagraph 4(C) if reasonably requested by NAI will include, subject to the conditions listed in the proviso above, executing or consenting to, or exercising or assisting NAI to exercise rights under any: (I) grant of easements, licenses, rights of way, and other rights in the nature of easements encumbering the Land or the Improvements, (II) release, relocation or termination of easements, licenses, rights of way or other rights in the nature of easements which are for the benefit of the Land or Improvements or any portion thereof, (III) dedication or transfer of portions of the Land not improved with a building, for road, highway or other public purposes, (IV) agreements (other than with NAI or its Affiliates) for the use and maintenance of common areas, for reciprocal rights of parking, ingress and egress and amendments to any covenants and restrictions affecting the Land or any portion thereof, (V) documents required to create or administer a governmental special benefit district or assessment district for public improvements and collection of special assessments, (VI) instruments necessary or desirable for the exercise or enforcement of rights or performance of obligations under any Permitted Encumbrance or any contract, permit, license, franchise or other right included within the term “Property”, (VII) modifications of Permitted Encumbrances, (VIII) permit applications or other documents required to accommodate any construction permitted by the Lease, (IX) confirmations of NAI’s rights under any particular provisions of the Operative Documents which NAI may wish to provide to a third party, or (X) tract or parcel map subdividing the Land into lots or parcels. However, the determination of whether any such action is reasonably requested or reasonably objectionable to BNPPLC may depend in whole or in part upon the extent to which the requested action may result in a lien to secure payment or performance obligations against BNPPLC’s interest in the Property, may cause the value of the Property to be less than the Lease Balance after any Qualified Prepayments that may result from such action are taken into account, or may impose upon BNPPLC any present or future obligations greater than the obligations BNPPLC is willing to accept, taking into consideration the indemnifications provided by NAI under the Lease. In addition, with respect to any request made by NAI to facilitate a relocation of any easements, the following will be relevant to the determination of whether the request is reasonable:

     (i) whether material encroachments will result from the relocation, and whether title to the land over or under which any such easement is to be relocated is encumbered by Liens other than those which are Fully Subordinated or Removable or which otherwise constitute Permitted Encumbrances;

     (ii) whether the relocation will result in any interruption of access or services provided to the Property which is likely to extend beyond the Designated Sale Date (it being understood, however, that any such interruption which is not likely to extend beyond the Designated Sale Date will not be a reason for BNPPLC to decline the

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 31

request); and

     (iii) whether the relocation is to be accomplished in a manner that will not, when the relocation is complete, result in a material adverse change in the access to or services provided to the Improvements or the Land.

     Any and all Losses incurred by BNPPLC because of any action taken pursuant to this subparagraph 4(C) will be covered by the indemnification set forth in subparagraph 5(C) of the Lease. Further, for purposes of such indemnification, any such action taken by BNPPLC will be deemed to have been made at the request of NAI if made pursuant to any request of counsel to or any officer of NAI (or with their knowledge, and without their objection) in connection with the execution or administration of the Lease or the other Operative Documents.

     (D) Actions Permitted by NAI Without BNPPLC’s Consent. No refusal by BNPPLC to execute or join in the execution of any agreement, application or other document requested by NAI pursuant to the preceding subparagraph 4(C) will prevent NAI from itself executing such agreement, application or other document, so long as NAI is not purporting to act for BNPPLC and does not thereby create or expand any obligations or restrictions that encumber BNPPLC’s title to the Property. Further, subject to the other terms and conditions of the Lease and other Operative Documents, NAI may do any of the following in NAI’s own name and to the exclusion of BNPPLC during the Term of the Lease, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, and provided NAI is not purporting to act for BNPPLC and does not thereby create or expand any obligations or restrictions that encumber BNPPLC’s title to the Property:

     (1) perform obligations arising under and exercise and enforce the rights of NAI or the owner of the Property under the Permitted Encumbrances;

     (2) perform obligations arising under and exercise and enforce the rights of NAI or the owner of the Property with respect to any other contracts or documents (such as building permits) included within the Personal Property; and

     (3) recover and retain any monetary damages or other benefit inuring to NAI or the owner of the Property through the enforcement of any rights, contracts or other documents included within the Personal Property (including the Permitted Encumbrances); provided, that to the extent any such monetary damages may become payable as compensation for an adverse impact on value of the Property, the rights of BNPPLC and NAI under the other Operative Documents with respect to the collection and application of such monetary damages will be the same as for condemnation proceeds payable because of a taking of all or any part of the Property.

     (E) Waiver of Landlord’s Liens. BNPPLC waives any security interest, statutory landlord’s lien or other interest BNPPLC may have in or against computer equipment and other

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 32

tangible personal property placed on the Land from time to time that NAI or its Affiliates own or lease from other lessors; however, BNPPLC does not waive its interest in or rights with respect to equipment or other property included within the “Property” as described in Paragraph 7 of the Lease. Although computer equipment or other tangible personal property may be “bolted down” or otherwise firmly affixed to Improvements, it will not by reason thereof become part of the Improvements if it can be removed without causing structural or other material damage to the Improvements and without rendering HVAC or other major building systems inoperative and if it does not otherwise constitute “Property” as provided in Paragraph 7 of the Lease.

     Without limiting the foregoing, BNPPLC acknowledges that NAI may obtain financing from other parties for inventory, furnishings, equipment, machinery and other personal property that is located in or about the Improvements, but that is not included in or integral to the Property, and to secure such financing NAI may grant a security interest under the California Uniform Commercial Code in such inventory, furnishings, equipment, machinery and other personal property. Further, BNPPLC acknowledges that the lenders providing such financing may require confirmation from BNPPLC of its agreements concerning landlord’s liens and other matters set forth in this subparagraph 4(E), and NAI may obtain such confirmation in any statement required of BNPPLC by the next subparagraph.

     (F) Estoppel Letters. Upon thirty days written request by NAI at any time and from time to time prior to the Designated Sale Date, BNPPLC must provide a statement in writing certifying that the Operative Documents are unmodified and in full effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the Operative Documents are in full effect as modified, and setting forth such modifications), certifying the dates to which the Base Rent payable by NAI under the Lease has been paid, stating whether BNPPLC is aware of any Default by NAI that may exist under the Operative Documents and confirming BNPPLC’s agreements concerning landlord’s liens and other matters set forth in subparagraph 4(E). Any such statement by BNPPLC may be relied upon by anyone with whom NAI may intend to enter into an agreement for construction of the Improvements or other significant agreements concerning the Property.

     (G) No Implied Representations or Promises by BNPPLC. NAI acknowledges and agrees that neither BNPPLC nor its representatives or agents have made any representations or promises with respect to the Property or the transactions contemplated in the Operative Documents except as expressly set forth in the Operative Documents, and no rights, easements or licenses are being acquired by NAI from BNPPLC by implication or otherwise, except as expressly set forth in the other Operative Documents.

5 Usury Savings Provision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Operative Documents, BNPPLC does not intend to contract for, charge or collect any amount of money from NAI that constitutes interest in excess of the maximum nonusurious rate of interest, if any, allowed by applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”). BNPPLC and NAI agree that

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 33

it is their intent in the execution of the Lease, the Purchase Agreement and other Operative Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, if any. In furtherance thereof, BNPPLC and NAI stipulate and agree that none of the provisions of the Lease, the Purchase Agreement or the other Operative Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract requiring compensation for the use, forbearance or detention of money at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, and the provisions of this paragraph shall control over all other provisions of this Certificate or other Operative Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith. All interest paid or agreed to be paid by NAI to BNPPLC shall, to the extent permitted by applicable usury laws, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the period that any principal upon which such interest accrues is expected to be outstanding (including without limitation any renewal or extension of the term of the Lease) so that the amount of interest included in such payments does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable usury laws. If the Designated Sale Date is accelerated and as a result thereof amounts paid by NAI to BNPPLC as interest are determined to exceed the interest that would have accrued at the Maximum Rate for the period prior to the Designated Sale Date, then BNPPLC shall, at its option, either refund to NAI the amount of such excess or credit such excess as a Qualified Prepayment (and thus reduce the Lease Balance and other amounts, the determination of which depend upon Qualified Prepayments credited to NAI) and thereby shall render inapplicable any and all penalties of any kind provided by applicable usury laws as a result of such excess interest. If BNPPLC receives money (or anything else) that is determined to constitute interest and that would, but for this provision, increase the effective interest rate received by BNPPLC under or in connection with the Operative Documents to a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, then the amount determined to constitute interest in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest shall, immediately following such determination, be returned to NAI or be credited as a Qualified Prepayment, in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable usury law shall be inapplicable. If BNPPLC does not actually receive, but shall contract for, request or demand, a payment of money (or anything else) which is determined to constitute interest and to increase the effective interest rate contracted for or charged to a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate, BNPPLC shall be entitled, following such determination, to waive or rescind the contractual claim, request or demand for the amount determined to exceed the Maximum Rate, in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable usury law shall be inapplicable. If at any time NAI should have reason to believe that the transactions evidenced by the Operative Documents are in fact usurious, NAI shall promptly give BNPPLC notice of such condition, after which BNPPLC shall have ninety days in which to make appropriate refund or other adjustment in order to correct such condition if it in fact exists.

6 Obligations of NAI Under Other Operative Documents Not Limited by this Certificate. Except as provided above in Paragraph 5, nothing contained in this Certificate will limit, modify or otherwise affect any of NAI’s obligations under the other Operative Documents. Subject to Paragraph 5, those obligations are intended to be separate, independent and in addition to, and not in lieu of, those established by this Certificate.

Closing Certificate and Agreement (Moffett Business Center) — Page 34

7 Obligations of NAI Hereunder Not Limited by Other Operative Documents. Recognizing that but for this Certificate (including the representations of NAI set forth in Paragraph 1) BNPPLC would not acquire the Property or enter into the other Operative Documents, NAI agrees that BNPPLC’s rights for any breach of this Certificate (including a breach of such representations) will not be limited by any provision of the other Operative Documents that would limit NAI’s liability thereunder.

8 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives its right to a jury trial of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of this Agreement, the other Operative Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims, and all other common law or statutory claims (collectively, the “Claims”). If and to the extent that the foregoing waiver of the right to a jury trial is unenforceable for any reason in such forum, each of the parties hereto hereby consents to the adjudication of all Claims pursuant to judicial reference as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, and the judicial referee shall be empowered to hear and determine all issues in such reference, whether fact or law. Each of the parties hereto represents that each has reviewed this waiver and consent and each knowingly and voluntarily waives its jury trial rights and consents to judicial reference following consultation with legal counsel on such matters. In the event of litigation, a copy of this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court or to judicial reference under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 as provided herein.
