OFFICE LEASE

This LEASE, which includes the preceding Summary of Basic Lease Information and Definitions (“Summary”) attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (“Lease”), is made as of the ___day of August, 2006, by and between PRENTISS/COLLINS DEL MAR HEIGHTS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and OREXIGEN THERAPEUTICS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).

1. Premises.

1.1		Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the Premises described in Section 1.5 of the Summary above, improved or to be improved with the Tenant Improvements. Such lease is upon, and subject to, the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth and each party covenants, as a material part of the consideration for this Lease, to keep and perform their respective obligations under this Lease. Subject to casualty, emergency, condemnation, Landlord’s repair and maintenance of the Project and the testing of the life safety and building systems of the Project, Tenant shall have access to the Premises twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week during the Lease Term.

1.2		Landlord’s Reservation of Rights. Provided Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises is not materially interfered with in an unreasonable manner, and subject to the terms of this Lease, Landlord reserves for itself the right from time to time to install, use, maintain, repair, replace and relocate pipes, ducts, conduits, wires and appurtenant meters and equipment above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces and within the walls of the Building and the Premises.

1.3		Measurement of Premises, Building and/or the Project. Landlord reserves the right to re-measure the Premises, the Building and/or the Project and adjust all provisions of this Lease which are based upon the area of the Premises, the Building and/or the Project such as Tenant’s Percentage, Monthly Basic Rent, and the Allowance, if any. As used in this Lease, the following terms have the meanings indicated:

(a)		The term “usable area” means the usable area as determined, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, in substantial accordance with the Standard Method for Measuring Floor Area in Office Buildings, ANSI/BOMA Z65.1 — 1996 (the “BOMA Standard”); and

(b)		The term “rentable area” or “rentable square footage” means the rentable area measured, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, in substantial accordance with the BOMA Standard.

1.4		Project. The term “Project,” as used in this Lease, shall include, collectively, (i) the Building, (ii) the other building in the Project (and additional buildings if and when constructed), (iii) any outside plaza areas, walkways, driveways, courtyards, public and private streets, transportation facilitation areas and other improvements and facilities now or hereafter constructed surrounding and/or servicing the Building and the other buildings in the Project (and additional buildings if and when constructed), including parking structures and surface parking facilities now or hereafter servicing the Building and the other building in the Project (and additional buildings if and when constructed) (collectively, the “Parking Facilities”), which are designated from time to time by Landlord as common areas (or parking facilities, as the case may be) appurtenant to or servicing the Building and the other building in the Project; (iv) any additional buildings, improvements, facilities, parking areas and structures and common areas which Landlord (and/or any common area association formed by Landlord or Landlord’s assignee for the Project) may add thereto from time to time within or as part of the Project; and (v) the land upon which any of the foregoing are situated. The site plan depicting the current configuration of the proposed Project is set forth in Exhibit “A” attached hereto (the “Site”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, (1) Landlord has no obligation to expand or otherwise make any improvements within the Project, including, without limitation, any of the outside plaza areas, walkways, driveways, courtyards, public and private streets, transportation facilitation areas and other improvements and facilities which may be depicted on Exhibit “A” attached hereto (as the same may be modified by Landlord from time to time without notice to Tenant), other than Landlord’s obligations set forth in the Work Letter Agreement to construct the Base, Shell and Core of the Building, and (2) Landlord shall have the right from time to time to include or exclude any improvements or facilities within the Project, at Landlord’s sole election.

2. Term; Extension Option; Early Access.

2.1

Term. The Term of this Lease shall be for the period designated in Section 1.6 of the Summary commencing on the Commencement Date, and ending on the expiration of such period, unless the Term is sooner terminated as provided in this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commencement Date falls on any day other than the first day of a calendar month then the term of this Lease will be measured from the first day of the month following the month in which the Commencement Date occurs so that the Term will end on the last day of a month. By written instrument substantially in the form of Exhibit “D” attached hereto, Landlord shall notify Tenant of the Commencement Date, the rentable and usable square feet of the Premises, Tenant’s Percentage and all other matters stated therein, and Tenant shall, within ten (10) days following delivery of such Commencement Notice, either (i) acknowledge and agree to all matters set forth in the Commencement Notice by executing the same and delivering the fully executed Commencement Notice to Landlord (in which case the Commencement Notice shall be conclusive and binding on Tenant as to all matters set forth therein), or (ii) deliver written notice to Landlord of any objections to matters contained in the Commencement Notice. The foregoing notwithstanding, Landlord’s failure to deliver any Commencement Notice to Tenant shall not affect Landlord’s determination of the Commencement Date. If for any reason Landlord cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on the anticipated Commencement Date, Landlord shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder or extend the term hereof, but in such case,

		Tenant shall not be obligated to pay rent or perform any other obligation of Tenant under the terms of this Lease, except as may be otherwise provided in this Lease, until possession of the Premises is tendered to Tenant.

2.2		Option to Extend.

(a)		Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant one (1) option (the “Extension Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease with respect to the entire Premises for three (3) years (“Option Term”), on the same terms, covenants and conditions as provided for in this Lease during the initial Lease Term, except that all economic terms such as, without limitation, Monthly Basic Rent, a new Base Year for Operating Expenses, if appropriate, parking charges, etc., shall be established based on the “fair market rental rate” for the Premises for the Option Term as defined and determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2 and except that the Tenant shall have no further right to extend the Lease Term.

(b)		The Extension Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice (“Extension Notice”) delivered by Tenant to Landlord (and actually received by Landlord) no earlier than the date which is twelve (12) months, and no later than the date which is nine (9) months, prior to the expiration of the then current Term of this Lease. If the Extension Notice is not so given and received, the Extension Option shall automatically expire. As a condition to the extension of the Lease Term pursuant to the Extension Option, any prior Tenant that has not been expressly released from liability under this Lease, and any guarantor of the Tenant’s performance hereunder, must expressly reaffirm in writing the extension of their liability for the Option Term.

(c)		The term “fair market rental rate” as used herein shall mean the annual amount per rentable square foot, projected during the relevant period, that a willing, comparable, non-equity renewal tenant (excluding sublease, assignment and new tenant transactions) would pay, and a willing, comparable landlord of a comparable quality building located in the vicinity of the Building would accept, at arm’s length (what Landlord is accepting in current transactions for the Project may be considered), for space unencumbered by any other tenant’s expansion rights and comparable in size, quality and floor height as the leased area at issue taking into account the age, quality and layout of the existing improvements in the leased area at issue (with consideration given to the fact that the improvements existing in the Premises are specifically suitable to Tenant) and taking into account items that professional real estate brokers customarily consider in renewal transactions, including, but not limited to, rental rates, office space availability, tenant size, refurbishment allowances, operating expenses and allowance, parking charges, and any other amounts then being charged by Landlord or the lessors of such similar office buildings but specifically disregarding concessions then being granted by comparable landlords to new tenants in comparable buildings located in the vicinity of the Building. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Monthly Basic Rent during the Option Term shall in no event be less than the Monthly Basic Rent scheduled to be paid during the month prior to the commencement of the Option Term.

(d)		Landlord’s determination of fair market rental rate shall be delivered to Tenant in writing not later than thirty (30) days following Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s Extension Notice. Tenant will have five (5) days (“Tenant’s Review Period”) after receipt of Landlord’s notice of the fair market rental rate within which to accept such fair market rental rate or to object thereto in writing. Tenant’s failure to accept or reject the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord in writing within Tenant’s Review Period will conclusively be deemed Tenant’s approval thereof. If Tenant objects to the fair market rental rate submitted by Landlord within Tenant’s Review Period, then Landlord and Tenant will attempt in good faith to agree upon such fair market rental rate. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement on such fair market rental rate within ten (10) days following the expiration of Tenant’s Review Period, the Extension Option shall void and the Lease shall expire at the end of the original Lease Term.

(e)		Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, the Extension Option is personal to the original Tenant executing this Lease (“Original Tenant”) and may be exercised only by the Original Tenant (and not any sublessee or other Transferee of Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) while occupying the entire Premises and may not be exercised or be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, by any person or entity other than the Original Tenant executing this Lease. The Extension Option is not assignable separate and apart from this Lease, nor may the Extension Option be separated from this Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise.

(f)		Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Extension Option, notwithstanding any provision of the grant of the Extension Option to the contrary, (i) during the time that Landlord has given Tenant a notice of default under the terms of this Lease until the default identified in such notice is cured, (ii) during the period of time commencing on the day after a monetary obligation to Landlord is due from Tenant and unpaid (without any necessity for notice thereof to Tenant) continuing until the obligation is paid, (iii) at any time after an event of default described in Sections 23.1(a), 23.1(d), 23.1(e) or 23.1(f) (without any necessity of Landlord to give notice of such default to Tenant), or (iv) in the event that Landlord has given to Tenant three or more notices of default under Paragraph 23.1(b), where a late charge has become payable under Paragraph 23.7 for each of such defaults, or three or more valid notices of default under Paragraph 23.1(c), whether or not the defaults are cured, during the twelve (12) month period prior to the time that Tenant intends to exercise the Extension Option. The period of time within which the Extension Option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise the Extension Option because of the provisions of Section 2.2(f). If Landlord desires to contend that clause (ii) of this Section 2.2(g) applies to negate Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option, then, unless Landlord has given Tenant written notice of Tenant’s failure to satisfy such monetary obligation, Landlord must do so by providing Tenant with a notice of such contention that specifies the basis thereof within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s delivery of the Extension Notice. Failure of Landlord to deliver such a notice (unless Landlord has given Tenant written notice of Tenant’s failure to satisfy such monetary obligation) within said thirty (30) day period shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to contend that clause (ii) of this Section 2.2(g) applies to negate Tenant’s exercise of the Extension Option.

(g)		The Extension Option may, at Landlord’s option, be nullified by Landlord and deemed of no further force or effect, if (i) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of Tenant for a period of thirty (30) days after such obligation becomes due where Landlord has notified Tenant of such monetary obligation, or (ii) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default specified in Section 23.1(c) within 30 days after the date that Landlord gives notice to Tenant of such default and/or Tenant fails thereafter to diligently prosecute said cure to completion, or (iii) Tenant commits a default described in Section 23.1(a), 23.1(d), 23.1(e) or 23.1(f) (without any necessity of Landlord to give notice of such default to Tenant), or (iv) Landlord gives to Tenant three or more notices of default under Paragraph 23.1(b), where a late charge becomes payable under Paragraph 23.7 for each such default, or three or more notices of default under Paragraph 23.1(c), whether or not the defaults are cured.

2.3		Early Access. Tenant shall be permitted to enter the Premises prior to the Commencement Date (the “Early Access Period”) for purposes of installing Tenant’s cabling, security system, furniture, fixtures and equipment; provided, however, that Tenant’s entry into the Premises during the Early Access Period shall be subject to and conditioned upon (i) Tenant’s coordination of such entry with Landlord and Landlord’s general contractor(s) so as not to delay Substantial Completion, (ii) Tenant providing Landlord with copies of certificates of insurance, complying in all respects with the terms of this Lease for all insurance required to be provided hereunder prior to entering the Premises, (iii) Tenant having obtained any and all governmental approvals required for such access, and (iv) Tenant complying with such restrictions and conditions on such access which Landlord deems reasonably necessary (and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any restrictions and conditions imposed by Landlord with the purpose of attempting to avoid any delay in the Commencement Date shall be deemed reasonable). Such access and the installation of such cabling, security system, furniture, fixtures and equipment shall also be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 17, 20 and 22; provided, however, that so long as Tenant does not commence the operation of business from the Premises, Tenant will not be obligated to pay Monthly Basic Rent or Excess Rent during the Early Access Period,. In no event shall Tenant or Tenant’s employees, agents, consultants, contractors or invitees interfere with any construction being undertaken by or on behalf of Landlord, nor with any inspections or issuance of final approvals by any applicable governmental authority, and if Tenant fails to cease such interference promptly after notice from Landlord specifying the nature of such interference, Landlord shall have the right to terminate Tenant’s access. Such access shall not advance the Termination Date. Other than with respect to the gross negligence of Landlord or Landlord’s contractors or agents (but in no event shall Landlord be liable for any loss of business, loss of profits or other consequential damages), Tenant hereby releases and discharges Landlord and Landlord’s employees, agents, consultants, contractors and manager from and against any and all claims of loss, damage or injury to persons or property, including without limitation any product inventory, which is alleged to have occurred during the Early Access Period. Landlord makes no representation or warranty about safety of the Premises during the Early Access Period, as construction and other activities may be ongoing.

The Monthly Basic Rent shall be paid by Tenant in monthly installments in the amounts designated in Section 1.8 of the Summary in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month during the Term, without demand, notice, deduction or offset except that the first full month’s Monthly Basic Rent shall be paid upon Tenant’s execution and delivery of this Lease to Landlord. Monthly Basic Rent for any partial month shall be prorated in the proportion that the number of days this Lease is in effect during such month bears to a thirty (30) day month.

3.2		Additional Rent. All amounts and charges payable by Tenant under this Lease in addition to the Monthly Basic Rent described in Section 3.1 above (including, without limitation, payments for insurance, repairs and parking, and Excess Expenses, as defined in Section 4.3) shall be considered additional rent for the purposes of this Lease, and the word “rent “ in this Lease shall include such additional rent unless the context specifically or clearly implies that only the Monthly Basic Rent is referenced.

(f)		perform such other acts and make such other changes with respect to the Project as Landlord may, in the exercise of good faith business judgment, deem to be appropriate.

Except with respect to the gross negligence of Landlord or Landlord’s contractors or agents (but in no event shall Landlord be liable for any loss of business, loss of profits or other consequential damages), Landlord shall have no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect injury to or interference with Tenant’s business arising from Landlord’s actions with respect to this Section 4.2, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant’s personal property or improvements resulting from Landlord’s actions with respect to this Section 4.2, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by Landlord’s actions with respect to this Section 4.2.

In addition to the Monthly Basic Rent required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 3.1 above, during each month during the Term of this Lease (after the Base Year noted in Section 1.10 of the Summary), Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount by which Tenant’s Percentage of Operating Expenses for such calendar year exceeds Landlord’s Contribution to Operating Expenses (such amount shall be referred to in this Section 4 as the “Excess Expenses “), in the manner and at the times set forth in the following provisions of this Section 4.

4.4

Definition of Operating Expenses. As used in this Lease, the term “Operating Expenses “ shall consist of all costs and expenses of operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Project and the Common Areas as determined by Landlord utilizing standard accounting practices calculated assuming the Project is 95% occupied. Operating Expenses shall include the following costs by way of illustration but not limitation: (a) Real Property Taxes and Assessments (as defined in Section 4.5) and any taxes or assessments imposed in lieu thereof; (b) any and all assessments imposed with respect to the Project, Common Areas, and/or Site pursuant to any covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Site, Common Areas or Project; (c) except to the extent paid by Tenant as part of Electricity Utility Charges (as defined in Section 16.2), water and sewer charges and the costs of electricity, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and other utilities; (d) except to the extent paid by Tenant as part of Electricity Utility Charges, utilities surcharges and any other costs, levies or assessments resulting from statutes or regulations promulgated by any government authority in connection with the use or occupancy of the Site, Project, the Premises, or the Parking Facilities; (e) costs of insurance obtained by Landlord pursuant to Section 21 of this Lease; (f) except to the extent paid by Tenant as part of Electricity Utility Charges, waste disposal and janitorial services; (g) security; (h) costs incurred in the management of the Site, Project and Common Areas, including, without limitation: (1) supplies, (2) wages, salaries, benefits, pension payments, fringe benefits, uniforms and dry-cleaning thereof (and payroll taxes, insurance and similar governmental charges related thereto) of employees used in the operation and maintenance of the Site, Project and Common Areas, (3) the rental of personal property used by Landlord’s personnel in the maintenance, repair and operation of the Project, (4) management office expenses including rent and operating costs, (5) accounting fees, legal fees and real estate consultant’s fees, and (6) a management/administrative fee not to exceed five percent (5%) of the annual gross revenues of the Project; (i) supplies, materials, equipment and tools; (j) repair, replacement and

maintenance of the elevators and the structural portions of the Project, including the plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, electrical and other utility systems installed or furnished by Landlord; (k) maintenance, costs and upkeep of all parking and Common Areas; (l) amortization on a straight-line basis over the useful life (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect from time to time in the United States), together with interest at the Interest Rate (as defined in Section 1.14 of the Summary of this Lease) on the unamortized balance of all costs of a capital nature (including, without limitation, capital improvements, capital replacements, capital repairs, capital equipment and capital tools): (1) intended to produce a reduction in operating charges or energy consumption or effect other economies in the operation or maintenance of the Project; or (2) required after the date of this Lease under any governmental law or regulation; (3) for repair or replacement of any equipment or improvements needed to operate and/or maintain the Project, the Common Areas and/or the Site at the same quality levels as prior to the repair or replacement; or (4) which are reasonably determined by Landlord to be in the best interests of the Project; (m) costs and expenses of gardening and landscaping; (n) maintenance of signs (other than signs of other tenants of the Project); (o) personal property taxes levied on or attributable to personal property used in connection with the Project, the Common Areas and/or the Site; and (p) costs and expenses of repairs, resurfacing, repairing, maintenance, painting, lighting, cleaning, refuse removal, security and similar items, including appropriate reserves.

In no event shall costs for any item of utilities included in Operating Expenses for any year subsequent to the Base Year be less than the amount included in Operating Expenses for the Base Year for such utility item. In addition, if in any calendar year subsequent to the Base Year, the amount of Operating Expenses decreases due to a reduction in the cost of providing utilities, security and/or other services to the Project for any reason, including without limitation, because of deregulation of the utility industry and/or reduction in rates achieved in contracts with utilities and/or service providers, then for purposes of the calendar year in which such decrease in Operating Expenses occurred and all subsequent calendar years, the Operating Expenses for the Base Year shall be decreased by an amount equal to such decrease.

Notwithstanding anything in the definition of Operating Expenses set forth above, Operating Expenses shall not include the following:

(a)

(b)

the following costs incurred with respect to the tenant leases at the Project: (i) the legal expenses and brokerage fees incurred in connection with negotiating and documenting such leases, (ii) the cost with respect to tenant improvements to the premises demised by such leases, (iii) free rent and tenant allowance concessions provided by Landlord to tenants under such leases, and (iv) the expenses of advertising the Project to prospective tenants;

(e)

the wages and benefits of any employee who does not devote substantially all of his or her employed time to the Project unless such wages and benefits are prorated to reflect time spent on operating and managing the Project vis-à-vis time spent on matters unrelated to operating and managing the Project; provided, that in no event shall Operating Expenses for purposes of this Lease include wages and/or benefits attributable to personnel above the level of Project general manager unless those personnel are acting in the capacity of their respective positions and the amount of salary being charged to the Project is comparable to Comparable Buildings in the area;

(f) amount paid by Landlord as ground rental for the Project;

(g)

costs of capital improvements (including rentals which would constitute a capital improvement if purchased), alterations and repairs except as set forth above in this Section 4.4;

(i)

the cost of all items and services for which Tenant or any other tenant in the Project is obligated to reimburse Landlord such cost, or the cost of such items and services for which Landlord provides selectively to one or more tenants (other than Tenant) without reimbursement;

(l)

cost incurred to correct violations of Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 existing as of the Commencement Date, which violations were of such a nature that a federal, state or municipal governmental or quasi-governmental authority, if it had then had knowledge of the existence of such violations would have then required the correction of such violations; and

(m) costs arising from Landlord’s charitable or political contributions.

Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate some or all of the Operating Expenses between the Building and/or among different tenants of the Project and/or different buildings of the Project as and when such different buildings are constructed and added to (and/or excluded from) the Project or otherwise (the “Cost Pools”). Such Cost Pools may include, without limitation, the office space tenants and industrial space tenants of the Project or of a building or buildings in the Project. Such Cost Pools may also include an allocation of certain Operating Expenses within or under covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project. In addition, Landlord shall have the right from time to time, in its reasonable discretion, to include or exclude existing or future buildings in the Project for purposes of determining Operating Expenses and/or the provision of various services and amenities thereto, including allocation of Operating Expenses in any such Cost Pools.

4.5

Definition of Real Property Taxes and Assessments. All Real Property Taxes and Assessments shall be adjusted to reflect an assumption that the Project is fully assessed for real property tax purposes as a completed building(s) ready for occupancy. As used in this Lease, the term “Real Property Taxes and Assessments” shall mean: any form of assessment, license fee, license tax, business license fee, commercial rental tax, levy, charge, improvement bond, tax, water and sewer rents and charges, utilities and communications taxes and charges or similar or dissimilar imposition imposed by any authority having the direct power to tax, including any city, county, state or federal government, or any school, agricultural, lighting, drainage or other improvement or special assessment district thereof, or any other governmental charge, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, which may be assessed against any legal or equitable interest of Landlord in the Premises, Building, Common Areas, Site or Project, including the following by way of illustration but not limitation:

(a)

any tax on Landlord’s “right” to rent or “right” to other income from the Premises or as against Landlord’s business of leasing the Premises;

(b)

any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax, it being acknowledged by Tenant and Landlord that Proposition 13 was adopted by the voters of the State of California in the June, 1978 election and that assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges may be imposed by governmental agencies for such services as fire protection, street, sidewalk and road maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services formerly provided without charge to property owners or occupants. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges be included within the definition of “Real Property Taxes and Assessments” for the purposes of this Lease;

(c)

any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or other premises in the Building or the rent payable by Tenant hereunder or other tenants of the Project, including, without limitation, any gross receipts tax or excise tax levied by state, city or federal government, or any political subdivision thereof, with respect to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof but not on Landlord’s other operations;

(d)

any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises; and/or

(e)

any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge by any governmental agency related to any transportation plan, fund or system (including assessment districts) instituted within the geographic area of which the Project is a part.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after the Commencement Date Real Property Taxes and Assessments are reduced, then for purposes of all subsequent calendar years including the calendar year in which the reduction occurs, Landlord’s Contribution to Operating Expenses shall be proportionately reduced. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 above to the contrary, “Real Property Taxes and Assessments“ shall not include Landlord’s federal or state income, franchise, inheritance or estate taxes.

4.6

Estimate Statement. By the first day of April of each calendar year during the Term of this Lease (after the Base Year noted in Section 1.10 of the Summary) or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible, Landlord shall endeavor to deliver to Tenant a statement (“Estimate Statement”) estimating the Operating Expenses for the current calendar year and the estimated amount of Excess Expenses payable by Tenant. Landlord shall have the right no more than three (3) times in any calendar year to deliver a revised Estimate Statement showing the Excess Expenses for such calendar year if Landlord determines that the Excess Expenses are greater than those set forth in the original Estimate Statement (or previously delivered revised Estimate Statement) for such calendar year. The Excess Expenses shown on the Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement, as applicable) shall be divided into twelve (12) equal monthly installments, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, concurrently with the regular Monthly Basic Rent payment next due following the receipt of the Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement, as applicable), an amount equal to one (1) monthly installment of such Excess Expenses multiplied by the number of months from January in the calendar year in which such statement is submitted to the month of such payment, both months inclusive (less any amounts previously paid by Tenant with respect to any previously delivered Estimate Statement or revised Estimate Statement for such calendar year). Subsequent installments shall be paid concurrently with the regular monthly rent payments for the balance of the calendar year and shall continue until the next calendar year’s Estimate Statement (or current calendar year’s revised Estimate Statement) is received.

4.7

Actual Statement. By the first day of April of each succeeding calendar year during the Term of this Lease (after the Base Year, as defined in Section 1.10 of the Summary) or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible, Landlord shall endeavor to deliver to Tenant a statement (“Actual Statement”) of the actual Operating Expenses and Excess Expenses for the immediately preceding calendar year. If the Actual Statement reveals that Excess Expenses were over-stated or under-stated in any Estimate Statement (or revised Estimate Statement) previously delivered by Landlord pursuant to Section 4.6 above, then within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Actual Statement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any such under-payment, or, Landlord shall credit Tenant against the next monthly rent falling due, the amount of such over-payment, as the case may be. Such obligation will be a continuing one which will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Prior to the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term and Landlord’s acceptance of Tenant’s surrender of the Premises, Landlord will have the right to estimate the actual Operating Expenses for the then current calendar year and to collect from Tenant prior to Tenant’s surrender of the Premises, Tenant’s Percentage of any excess of such actual Operating Expenses over the estimated Operating Expenses paid by Tenant in such calendar year.

4.8

No Release. Any delay or failure by Landlord in delivering any Estimate or Actual Statement pursuant to this Section 4 shall not constitute a waiver of its right to receive Tenant’s payment of Excess Expenses, nor shall it relieve Tenant of its obligations to pay Excess Expenses pursuant to this Section 4, except that Tenant shall not be obligated to make any payments based on such Estimate or Actual Statement until ten (10) business days after receipt of such statement.

4.9

Audit Rights. In the event Tenant disputes the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in the Actual Statement for the particular calendar year delivered by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to Section 4.7 above, Tenant shall have the right, at Tenant’s cost, after reasonable notice to Landlord, to have Tenant’s authorized employees or agents inspect, at Landlord’s office during normal business hours, Landlord’s books, records and supporting documents concerning the Operating Expenses set forth in such Actual Statement; provided, however, Tenant shall have no right to conduct such inspection, have an audit performed by the Accountant as described below, or object to or otherwise dispute the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in any such Actual Statement, unless Tenant notifies Landlord of such objection and dispute, completes such inspection, and has the Accountant commence and complete such audit within six (6) months immediately following Landlord’s delivery of the particular Actual Statement in question (the “Review Period”); provided, further, that notwithstanding any such timely objection, dispute, inspection, and/or audit, and as a condition precedent to Tenant’s exercise of its right of objection, dispute, inspection and/or audit as set forth in this Section 4.9, Tenant shall not be permitted to withhold payment of, and Tenant shall timely pay to Landlord, the full amounts as required by the provisions of this Section 4 in accordance with such Actual Statement. However, such payment may be made under protest pending the outcome of any audit which may be performed by the Accountant as described below. In connection with any such inspection by Tenant, Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably cooperate with each other so that such inspection can be performed pursuant to a mutually acceptable schedule, in an expeditious manner and without interference with Landlord’s operation and management of the Building. If after such inspection and/or request for documentation, Tenant still disputes the amount of the Operating Expenses set forth in the Actual Statement, Tenant shall have the right, within the Review Period, to cause an independent certified public accountant which is not paid on a contingency basis, which is mutually approved by Landlord and Tenant, and which is not representing or performing auditing work for any other tenant of the Project (the “Accountant”) to complete an audit of Landlord’s books and records pertaining to Operating Expenses to determine the proper amount of the Operating Expenses incurred and amounts payable by Tenant for the calendar year which is the subject of such Actual Statement. Such audit by the Accountant shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If Landlord and Tenant cannot mutually agree as to the identity of the Accountant within thirty (30) days after Tenant notifies Landlord that Tenant desires an audit to be performed, then the Accountant shall be one of the “Big 4” accounting firms, which is not paid on a contingency basis and which is selected by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. If such audit reveals that Landlord has over-charged Tenant, then within thirty (30) days after the results of such audit are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall reimburse to Tenant the amount of such over-charge. If the audit reveals that the Tenant was under-charged, then within thirty (30) days after the results of such audit are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord the amount of such under-charge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit unless it is subsequently determined that Landlord’s original Actual Statement which was the subject of such audit was in error to Tenant’s disadvantage by five percent (5%) or more of the total Operating Expenses which was the subject of such audit. The payment by Tenant of any amounts pursuant to this Section 4 shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness of any Actual Statement provided by Landlord at any time during the Review Period, but the failure of Tenant to object thereto, conduct

and complete its inspection and have the Accountant conduct and complete the audit as described above prior to the expiration of the Review Period shall be conclusively deemed Tenant’s approval of the Actual Statement in question and the amount of Operating Expenses shown thereon. In connection with any inspection and/or audit conducted by Tenant pursuant to this Section 4.9, Tenant agrees to keep, and to cause all of Tenant’s employees and consultants and the Accountant to keep, all of Landlord’s books and records and the audit, and all information pertaining thereto and the results thereof, strictly confidential, and in connection therewith, Tenant shall cause such employees, consultants and the Accountant to execute such commercially reasonable confidentiality agreements as Landlord may require prior to conducting any such inspections and/or audits.

5. Security Deposit. Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, upon delivery of an executed copy of this Lease to Landlord, a security deposit (the “Security Deposit”) for the performance of all of Tenant’s obligations hereunder in the amount set forth in Section 1.11 of the Summary; provided, however, that if no default under this Lease by Tenant shall exist and be continuing as of the thirtieth (30^th) month of the Lease Term, the Security Deposit shall be reduced to Seventy Thousand Dollars ($70,000) at the beginning of the thirtieth (30^th) month of the Lease Term and Landlord shall cooperate, at no expense to Landlord, in connection with an amendment to the Letter of Credit to effectuate such reduction. The Security Deposit shall be in the form of an unconditional and irrevocable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit”): (i) in form and substance satisfactory to Landlord, (ii) naming Landlord as beneficiary, (iii) expressly allowing Landlord to draw upon it at any time from time to time, in whole or in part, by delivering to the issuer notice that Landlord is entitled to draw thereunder, (iv) issued by an FDIC-insured financial institution satisfactory to Landlord, and (v) redeemable by presentation of a sight draft in the State of Landlord’s choice. At least ten (10) days before the stated expiration date of any then current Letter of Credit, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a substitute Letter of Credit complying with all of the requirements hereof. If Tenant does not provide Landlord with a substitute Letter of Credit complying with all of the requirements hereof at least ten (10) days before the stated expiration date of any then current Letter of Credit, Landlord shall have the right to draw the full amount of the current Letter of Credit and hold the funds drawn in cash without obligation for interest thereon as the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit shall be held by Landlord as security for the performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of Landlord’s damages in case of Tenant’s default. Upon each occurrence of a default under this Lease by Tenant, Landlord may use all or any part of the Security Deposit to pay delinquent payments due under this Lease, and the cost of any damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such default, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law. Upon any such use of all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand the amount that will restore the Security Deposit to the amount set forth on Page 1 of this Lease. Upon bankruptcy or other debtor-creditor proceedings against Tenant, (y) Landlord shall have the right to draw the full amount of the current Letter of Credit and hold the funds drawn in cash without obligation for interest thereon as the Security Deposit, and (z) the Security Deposit shall be deemed to be applied first to the payment of Rent and other charges due Landlord for periods prior to the filing of such proceedings. If the credit rating assigned to the long term unsecured debt of issuer of the Letter of Credit by Standard & Poor’s rating services or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. has been reduced to BBB-/Baa3 or worse and Tenant has not provided Landlord with a substitute Letter of Credit satisfying the conditions of this Section 5 and issued by an FDIC-insured financial institution satisfactory to Landlord within fifteen (15) days thereafter, Landlord shall have the right to draw the full amount of the current Letter of Credit and hold the funds drawn in cash without obligation for interest thereon as the Security Deposit. Upon any such use of all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within 5 days after demand from Landlord, restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. If Te nant shall fully perform every provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant, the Security Deposit, or any balance thereof (i.e., after deducting therefrom all amounts to which Landlord is entitled under the provisions of this Lease), shall be returned to Tenant (or, at Landlord’s option, to the last assignee of Tenant’s interest hereunder) within sixty (60) days after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease; provided that Landlord may retain the Security Deposit until such time as any amount due from Tenant in accordance with this Lease has been determined and paid in full. If Landlord transfers its interest in the Project or this Lease, Landlord shall either (a) transfer any Security Deposit then held by Landlord to a person or entity assuming Landlord’s obligations under this Section 5, or (b) return to Tenant any Security Deposit then held by Landlord and remaining after the deductions permitted herein. Upon such transfer to such transferee or the return of the Security Deposit to Tenant, Landlord shall have no further obligation with respect to the Security Deposit, and Tenant’s right to the return of the Security Deposit shall apply solely against Landlord’s transferee. Landlord’s obligation respecting the Security Deposit is that of a debtor, not a trustee, and no interest shall accrue thereon. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code. Tenant also waives the provisions of any law, now or hereafter in force, which provide that Landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of Rent, to repair damage caused by Tenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord for any other loss or damage, foreseeable or unforeseeable, caused by the act or omission of Tenant or any officer, employee, agent or invitee of Tenant.

6. Use.

6.1

General. Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use specified in Section 1.12 of the Summary, and shall not use or permit the Premises to be used for any other use or purpose whatsoever. Tenant shall observe and comply with the “Rules and Regulations” attached hereto as Exhibit “E”, and all reasonable, non-discriminatory modifications thereof and additions thereto from time to time put into effect and furnished to Tenant by Landlord. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the Rules and Regulations, but shall have no liability to Tenant for the violation or non-performance by any other tenant or occupant of the Project or the Building of any such Rules and Regulations.

Except for such identification sign, Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Building or the common areas of the Building or the Project. Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building are subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion. Tenant shall have no right to conduct any auction in, on or about the Premises, the Building or Site. Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) line on the Building directory to display Tenant’s name and suite number, at Landlord’s expense.

6.4

Hazardous Materials. Tenant will (i) obtain and maintain in full force and effect all Environmental Permits (as defined below) that may be required from time to time under any Environmental Laws (as defined below) applicable to Tenant or the Premises and (ii) be and remain in compliance in all respects with all terms and conditions of all such Environmental Permits and with all other limitations, restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements, obligations, schedules and timetables contained in all Environmental Laws applicable to Tenant or the Premises. As used in this Lease, the term “Environmental Law” means any past, present or future federal, state, local or foreign statutory or common law, or any regulation, ordinance, code, plan, order, permit, grant, franchise, concession, restriction or agreement issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder, relating to (a) the environment, human health or safety, including, without limitation, emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of Hazardous Materials (as defined below) into the environment (including, without limitation, air, surface water, groundwater or land), or (b) the manufacture, generation, refining, processing, distribution, use, sale, treatment, receipt, storage, disposal, transport, arranging for transport, or handling of Hazardous Materials. “Environmental Permits” means, collectively, any and all permits, consents, licenses, approvals and registrations of any nature at any time required pursuant to, or in order to comply with, any Environmental Law. Except for ordinary and general office supplies, such as copier toner, liquid paper, glue, ink and common household cleaning materials (some or all of which may constitute “Hazardous Materials” as defined in this Lease), Tenant agrees not to cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, stored, used, handled, generated, released or disposed of on, in, under or about the Premises, the Building, the Common Areas or any other portion of the Project by Tenant, its agents, employees, subtenants, assignees, licensees, contractors or invitees (collectively, “Tenant’s Parties”), without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant agrees to promptly remove from the Premises, the Building and the Project, at its sole cost

and expense, any and all Hazardous Materials, including any equipment or systems containing Hazardous Materials which are installed, brought upon, stored, used, generated or released upon, in, under or about the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any portion thereof by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant agrees to promptly indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless Landlord and Landlord’s partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities, penalties, fines, expenses and costs (including, without limitation, clean-up, removal, remediation and restoration costs, sums paid in settlement of claims, attorneys’ fees, consultant fees and expert fees and court costs) which arise or result from the presence of Hazardous Materials on, in, under or about the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Project and which are caused by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties. Tenant agrees to promptly notify Landlord of any release of Hazardous Materials in the Premises, the Building or any other portion of the Project which Tenant becomes aware of during the Term of this Lease, whether caused by Tenant or any other persons or entities. In the event of any release of Hazardous Materials caused by Tenant or any of Tenant’s Parties, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause Tenant , at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, to immediately take all steps Landlord deems necessary or appropriate to remediate such release and prevent any similar future release to the satisfaction of Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagee(s). At all times during the Term of this Lease, at Tenant’s expense, Landlord will have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the Premises to inspect, investigate, sample and/or monitor the Premises to determine if Tenant is in compliance with the terms of this Lease regarding Hazardous Materials. If Tenant has violated the provisions of this Section 6.4 or if there is a reasonable basis to believe that Tenant may have violated the provisions of this Section 6.4, Tenant will, upon the request of Landlord or any mortgagee at any time during which Tenant is in default under this Lease, cause to be performed an environmental audit of the Premises at Tenant’s expense by an established environmental consulting firm reasonably acceptable to Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagee(s). As used in this Lease, the term “Hazardous Materials” shall mean and include any hazardous or toxic materials, substances or wastes as now or hereafter designated under any Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, asbestos, petroleum, petroleum hydrocarbons and petroleum based products, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, polychlorinated biphenyls (“PCBs”), and freon and other chlorofluorocarbons. The provisions of this Section 6.4 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

Landlord shall have no further or separate obligation for payment of commissions or fees to any other real estate broker, finder or intermediary. Tenant represents that it has not had any dealings with any real estate broker, finder or intermediary with respect to this Lease, other than Landlord’s Broker and the broker specified in Section 1.13 of the Summary as representing Tenant (“Tenant’s Broker”). Any commissions or fees payable to Tenant’s Broker with respect to this Lease shall be paid exclusively by Landlord’s Broker.

Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) resulting from any breach by Tenant of the foregoing representation, including, without limitation, any claims that may be asserted against Landlord by any broker, agent or finder undisclosed by Tenant herein.

Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender all keys for the Premises to Landlord, and exclusive possession of the Premises to Landlord broom clean and in first-class condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, with all of Tenant’s personal property (and those items, if any, of Tenant Improvements and Tenant Changes identified by Landlord pursuant to Section 12.2 below) removed therefrom and all damage caused by such removal repaired, as required pursuant to Sections 12.2 and 12.3 below. If, for any reason, Tenant fails to surrender the Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of

this Lease (including upon the expiration of any subsequent month-to-month tenancy consented to by Landlord pursuant to Section 9.2 below), with such removal and repair obligations completed, then, in addition to the provisions of Section 9.3 below and Landlord’s rights and remedies under Section 12.4 and the other provisions of this Lease, Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel approved in writing by Landlord) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) resulting from such failure to surrender, including, without limitation, any claim made by any succeeding tenant based thereon. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

Tenant shall pay an entire month’s Monthly Basic Rent calculated in accordance with this Section 9.2 for any portion of a month it holds over and remains in possession of the Premises pursuant to this Section 9.2. This Section 9.2 shall not be construed to create any expressed or implied right to holdover beyond the expiration of the Lease Term or any extension thereof.

9.3

Hold Over Without Landlord’s Consent. If Tenant holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term without the express written consent of Landlord, then, in addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, Tenant shall become a tenant at sufferance only, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease so far as applicable (including Tenant’s obligation to pay all Excess Expenses and any other additional rent under this Lease), but at a Monthly Basic Rent equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Basic Rent applicable to the Premises immediately prior to the date of such expiration or earlier termination. Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination shall not constitute a consent to a hold over hereunder or result in an extension of this Lease.

To the extent not otherwise included in Operating Expenses, Tenant shall be liable for, and shall pay before delinquency, all taxes and assessments (real and personal) levied against (a) any personal property or trade fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises (including any increase in the assessed value of the Premises based upon the value of any such personal property or trade fixtures); and (b) any Tenant Improvements or alterations in the Premises (whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant) to the extent such items are assessed at a valuation higher than the valuation at which tenant improvements conforming to the Building’s standard tenant improvements are assessed. If any such taxes or assessments are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property, Landlord may, after written notice to Tenant, pay such taxes and assessments, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord therefor within ten (10) days after demand by Landlord.

11. Condition of Premises; Repairs.

11.1

Condition of Premises. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that it has had an opportunity to inspect the Premises, the Building, the Site and the Project, and finds the same in satisfactory condition and repair. Tenant accepts the Premises, the Building, the Site and the Project in their “then as-is” condition as of the date hereof. Tenant also acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease, neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty with respect to the Premises, the Building, the Site or the Project or their condition, or with respect to the suitability thereof for the conduct of Tenant’s business. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Project, the Site, the Premises, the Tenant Improvements therein, the Building and the Common Areas were at such time complete and in good, sanitary and satisfactory condition and repair with all work required to be performed by Landlord, if any, pursuant to Exhibit “C” completed and without any obligation on Landlord’s part to make any alterations, upgrades or improvements thereto; provided, however, Landlord acknowledges that Tenant’s entry into the Premises during the Early Access Period as set forth in Section 2.3 shall not constitute taking of possession of the Premises for purposes of this Section with respect to the condition of the Tenant Improvements or the satisfaction of Landlord’s obligations set forth in Exhibit “C.” Nothing contained in this Section 11.1 shall limit or affect Landlord’s warranties set forth in Section 11.2.

11.2

Landlord’s Repair Obligations. Subject to Sections 18 and 19 of this Lease, Landlord shall, as part of the Operating Expenses, repair, maintain and replace, as necessary (a) the Building shell and other structural portions of the Building (including the roof and foundations), (b) the basic heating, ventilating, air conditioning (“HVAC”), sprinkler and electrical systems within the Building core and standard conduits, connections and distribution systems thereof within the Premises (but not any above standard improvements installed in the Premises such as, for example, but by way of limitation, custom lighting, special or supplementary HVAC or plumbing systems or distribution extensions, special or supplemental electrical panels or distribution systems, or kitchen or restroom facilities and appliances to the extent such facilities and appliances are intended for the exclusive use of Tenant), and (c) the Common Areas; provided, however, to the extent such maintenance, repairs or replacements are required as a result of any act, neglect, fault or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors, licensees or invitees, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, the costs of such maintenance, repairs and replacements. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for failure to perform any such maintenance, repairs or replacements, unless Landlord shall fail to make such maintenance, repairs or

replacements and such failure shall continue for an unreasonable time following written notice from Tenant to Landlord of the need therefor. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under any law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect (including the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1942 and any successive sections or statutes of a similar nature). Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring. Landlord warrants to Tenant to Landlord’s actual knowledge that (i) the Premises, in the state existing on the Commencement Date, but without regard to alterations by Tenant or to the use for which Tenant will occupy the Premises, does not violate any covenants or restrictions of record, or any applicable building code, regulation or ordinance in effect on the Commencement Date and (ii) the building systems of the Project serving the Premises, including, without limitation, the HVAC, are in good operating condition as of the Commencement Date. In the event it is determined that the foregoing warranties has been violated, then, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy, it shall be the obligation of the Landlord, after written notice from Tenant, to promptly, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, rectify any such violation or condition; provided, however, that if Tenant does not give to Landlord written notice of the violation of these warranties within thirty (30) from the Commencement Date, such warranties shall be deemed to have been waived by the Tenant, Tenant shall have no right to assert any claim, demand or defense against Landlord or the enforcement of this Lease against Tenant as a result of the conditions giving rise to such violation and the correction of same shall be the obligation of Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost; provided, however, without limitation upon Tenant’s obligations to pay Excess Expenses, Tenant shall only be responsible for the costs to correct the warranty regarding building systems which serve the Premises exclusively.

11.3

Tenant’s Repair Obligations. Except for Landlord’s obligations specifically set forth in Sections 11.1, 11.2, 16.1, 18.1 and 19.2 hereof, Tenant shall at all times and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, keep, maintain, clean, repair, preserve and replace, as necessary, the Premises and all parts thereof including, without limitation, all Tenant Improvements, Tenant Changes, utility meters, all special or supplemental HVAC systems, electrical systems, pipes and conduits, located within the Premises, all fixtures, furniture and equipment, Tenant’s signs, locks, closing devices, security devices, windows, window sashes, casements and frames, floors and floor coverings, shelving, kitchen and/or restroom facilities and appliances located within the Premises to the extent such facilities and appliances are intended for the exclusive use of Tenant, if any, custom lighting, and any alterations, additions and other property located within the Premises in first-class condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall replace, at its expense, any and all plate and other glass in and about the Premises which is damaged or broken from any cause whatsoever except due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees and not covered by insurance maintained, or required to be maintained, by Tenant hereunder. Such maintenance and repairs shall be performed with due diligence, lien-free and in a first-class and workmanlike manner, by licensed contractor(s) which are selected by Tenant and approved by Landlord, which approval Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair, renovate, redecorate or paint all or any part of the Premises.

11.4

Landlord Work.

(a)

Landlord has constructed, through its contractor, the base, shell and core of the Premises and the Building (collectively, the “Base, Shell and Core”), and, without limitation on Landlord’s warranties set forth in Section 11.2, Tenant shall accept the Base, Shell and Core in its current “As-Is” condition existing as of the date of the Lease and the Commencement Date. Landlord shall install in the Premises the improvements described on Exhibit C attached hereto (the “Tenant Improvements”). Except for the Tenant Improvements and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord shall not be obligated to make or pay for any alterations or improvements to the Premises, the Building or the Project.

(b)

For purposes of the Lease, including for purposes of determining the Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Summary to the Lease), “Substantial Completion” of the Premises shall occur upon the completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises, with the exception of any punchlist items and any tenant fixtures, work-stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant. If, other than as a result of Tenant Delays, Substantial Completion of the Premises has not occurred by January 1, 2007, Tenant may terminate this Lease, by providing Landlord with notice of such termination prior to January 15, 2007.

(c)

If there shall be a delay or there are delays in the Substantial Completion of the Premises as a direct, indirect, partial, or total result of any acts or omissions of Tenant, or its agents, or employees (collectively, “Tenant Delays”) then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease and regardless of the actual date of the Substantial Completion of the Premises, the Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Summary) shall be deemed to be the date the Commencement Date would have occurred if no Tenant Delays, as set forth above, had occurred.

(d)

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, if an event of default by Tenant of this Lease has occurred at any time on or before the Substantial Completion of the Premises, then (i) in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord pursuant to this Lease, at law and/or in equity, Landlord may cease the construction of the Tenant Improvements (in which case, Tenant shall be responsible for any delay in the Substantial Completion of the Tenant Improvements caused by such work stoppage as set forth in (c) above, and (ii) all other obligations of Landlord under the terms of this Section 11.4 shall be forgiven until such time as such default is cured pursuant to the terms of this Lease (in which case, Tenant shall be responsible for any delay in the Substantial Completion of the Premises caused by such inaction by Landlord). In addition, if the Lease is terminated prior to the Commencement Date, for any reason due to a default by Tenant of this Lease, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, at law and/or in equity, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent under the Lease, within five (5) days of receipt of a statement therefor, any and all

costs incurred by Landlord and not reimbursed or otherwise paid by Tenant through the date of such termination in connection with the Tenant Improvements to the extent planned, installed and/or constructed as of such date of termination, but only to the extent that such Tenant Improvements exceed building standard, including, but not limited to, any costs related to the removal of all or any portion of the Tenant Improvements and restoration costs related thereto.

12. Alterations.

12.4

Tenant’s Failure to Remove. If Tenant fails to remove by the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease all of its personal property, or any items of Tenant Improvements or Tenant Changes identified by Landlord for removal pursuant to Section 12.2 above, or if Tenant fails to comply with its obligations under Section 12.3, Landlord may, at its option, treat such failure as a hold over pursuant to Section 9.3 above, and/or may (without liability to Tenant for loss thereof, at Tenant’s sole cost and in addition to Landlord’s other rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity: (a) remove and store such items in accordance with applicable law; and/or (b) upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to Tenant, sell all or any such items at private or public sale for such price as Landlord may obtain as permitted under applicable law. Landlord shall apply the proceeds of any such sale to any amounts due to Landlord under this Lease from Tenant (including Landlord’s attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred in the removal, storage and/or sale of such items), with any remainder to be paid to Tenant.

13. Liens. Tenant shall not permit any mechanic’s, materialmen’s or other liens to be filed against all or any part of the Project, the Site, the Building or the Premises, nor against Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Premises, by reason of or in connection with any repairs, alterations, improvements or other work contracted for or undertaken by Tenant or any other act or omission of Tenant or any Tenant Parties. Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with enforceable, unconditional and final lien releases (and other evidence reasonably requested by Landlord to demonstrate protection from liens) from all persons furnishing labor and/or materials with respect to the Premises. Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times to post on the Premises and record any notices of non-responsibility which it deems necessary for protection from such liens. If any such liens are filed, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, promptly cause such lien to be released of record or bonded to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction so that it no longer affects title to the Project, the Site, the Building or the Premises. If Tenant fails to cause such lien to be so released or bonded within twenty (20) days after filing thereof, Landlord may, without waiving its rights and remedies based on such breach, and without releasing Tenant from any of its obligations, cause such lien to be released by any means it shall deem proper, including payment in satisfaction of the claim giving rise to such lien. Tenant shall pay to Landlord within five (5) days after receipt of invoice from Landlord, any sum paid by Landlord to remove such liens, together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date of such payment by Landlord. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT LANDLORD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS FURNISHED OR TO BE FURNISHED TO TENANT, OR TO ANYONE HOLDING THE PREMISES THROUGH OR UNDER TENANT, AND THAT NO MECHANICS’ OR OTHER LIENS FOR ANY SUCH LABOR, SERVICES OR MATERIALS SHALL ATTACH TO OR AFFECT THE INTEREST OF LANDLORD IN THE PREMISES.

14. Assignment and Subletting.

14.1

Restriction on Transfer. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 14, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent Landlord will not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay, assign this Lease or any interest herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use or occupancy of the Premises by any party other than Tenant (any such assignment, encumbrance, sublease, license or the like shall sometimes be referred to as a “Transfer”). In no event may Tenant encumber or hypothecate this Lease. Any Transfer without Landlord’s consent (except for a Permitted Transfer pursuant to Section 14.2 below) shall constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease, without the benefit of any additional notice or cure period specified in Section 23.1 below, and in addition to all of Landlord’s other remedies at law, in equity or under this Lease, such Transfer shall be voidable at Landlord’s election. In addition, this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest of Tenant herein, be assignable by operation of law without the written consent of Landlord. For purposes of this Section 14, other than with respect to a Permitted Transfer under Section 14.2 and transfers of stock of Tenant if Tenant is (now or hereafter) a publicly-held corporation and such stock is transferred publicly over a recognized security exchange or over-the-counter market (neither of which shall be considered a Transfer), if Tenant is a corporation, partnership or other entity, any direct or indirect transfer, assignment, encumbrance or hypothecation of forty-nine percent (49%) or more (individually or in the aggregate) of any stock or other ownership interest in such entity, and/or any transfer, assignment, hypothecation or encumbrance of any controlling ownership or voting interest in such entity, shall be deemed a Transfer and shall be subject to all of the restrictions and provisions contained in this Section 14. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a public offering or offerings of stock in Tenant over a recognized security exchange or over-the-counter

market shall not constitute a Transfer requiring Landlord’s consent or subject Tenant to the provisions of Subsection 14.3 or Subsection 14.4.

14.2

Permitted Controlled Transfers. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.1 above to the contrary, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof (herein, a “Permitted Transfer”), without Landlord’s consent and without extending any sublease or termination option to Landlord, to any corporation which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any corporation resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to any person or entity which acquires all the assets of Tenant’s business as a going concern, provided that: (a) at least twenty (20) days prior to such assignment or sublease, Tenant delivers to Landlord the financial statements and other financial and background information of the assignee or sublessee described in Section 14; (b) if an assignment, the assignee assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant under this Lease (or if a sublease, the sublessee of a portion of the Premises or Term assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant with respect to such portion); (c) the financial net worth of the assignee or sublessee equals or exceeds that of Tenant as of the date of execution of this Lease; (d) Tenant remains fully liable under this Lease; (e) the use of the Premises under Section 6 remains unchanged; and (f) such transaction is not entered into as a subterfuge to avoid the restrictions and provisions of this Lease.

14.3

Landlord’s Options. If at any time or from time to time during the Term Tenant desires to effect a Transfer, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date Tenant desires the Transfer to be effective (“Transfer Date”), written notice (“Transfer Notice”) setting forth the Transfer Date, the terms and provisions of the proposed Transfer, the identity of the proposed assignee, sublessee or other transferee (sometimes referred to hereinafter as a “Transferee”), and any ownership or commercial relationship between Tenant and the proposed Transferee. Tenant shall also deliver to Landlord with the Transfer Notice, a current financial statement and financial statements for the preceding two (2) years of the Transferee which have been certified or audited by a reputable independent accounting firm acceptable to Landlord, and such other information concerning the business background and financial condition of the proposed Transferee as Landlord may reasonably request. Except with respect to a Permitted Transfer, Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by written notice delivered to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Transfer Notice, such financial statements and other information requested by Landlord, either to:

(a)

approve or disapprove such Transfer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, unconditioned or delayed; or

(b)

sublet from Tenant that portion of the Premises which Tenant has requested to sublease at the rental and on the other terms set forth in this Lease prorated for the portion of the Premises to be sublet and for the term set forth in Tenant’s Notice, or, in the case of an assignment or encumbrance, terminate this Lease with respect to the entire Premises and recapture the Premises, which termination shall be effective thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to a Permitted Transfer or a Transfer which does not require Landlord’s consent and Tenant may void such termination and recapture by withdrawing such request for assignment or encumbrance by notifying Landlord of its irrevocable election to withdraw such request within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s notice.

If Landlord exercises its option to sublease any such space from Tenant following Tenant’s request for Landlord’s approval of the proposed sublease of such space, (i) Landlord shall be responsible for the construction of any partitions which Landlord reasonably deems necessary to separate such space from the remainder of the Premises, and (ii) Landlord and any sub-subtenant or assignee of Landlord with respect to such subleased space shall have the right to use in common with Tenant all lavatories, corridors and lobbies which are within the Premises and which are reasonably required for the use of such space. Landlord may sub-sublease such space or lease the Premises to any person, including, without limitation, Tenant’s proposed sublessee or assignee.

14.4

Additional Conditions; Excess Rent. If for a Transfer other than a Permitted Transfer Landlord does not exercise its sublease or termination option and instead approves of the proposed Transfer pursuant to Section 14.3(a) above, Tenant may enter into the proposed Transfer with such proposed Transferee subject to the following further conditions:

(a)

the Transfer shall be on the same terms set forth in the Transfer Notice delivered to Landlord (if the terms have changed, Tenant must submit a revised Transfer Notice to Landlord and Landlord shall have another twenty (20) days after receipt thereof to make the election in Sections 14.3(a) or 14.3(b) above);

(b)

no Transfer shall be valid and no Transferee shall take possession of the Premises until an executed counterpart of the assignment, sublease or other instrument affecting the Transfer has been delivered to Landlord pursuant to which the Transferee shall expressly assume all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease (or with respect to a sublease of a portion of the Premises or for a portion of the Term, all of Tenant’s obligations applicable to such portion) and the Transferee shall have executed Landlord’s standard form of consent;

(c)

no Transferee shall have a further right to assign, encumber or sublet, except on the terms herein contained; and

(d)

fifty percent (50%) of any rent or other economic consideration to the extent received by Tenant as a result of such Transfer which exceeds, in the aggregate, (i) the total rent which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease (prorated to reflect obligations allocable to any portion of the Premises subleased, but excluding any amortized tenant improvement costs, if any), plus (ii) any reasonable brokerage commissions, attorneys’ fees and moving costs actually paid by Tenant in connection with such Transfer and any other customary, reasonable and market based out-of-pocket tenant concessions paid by Tenant, shall be paid to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt thereof as additional rental under this Lease, without affecting or reducing any other obligations of

Tenant hereunder. The foregoing is not intended to permit Landlord to share in proceeds of the sale of Tenant’s business, except to the extent that such proceeds are attributable to the value of the leasehold created hereby, or to permit Tenant to deduct expenses attributable to such sale from such proceeds attributable to the value of the leasehold created hereby.

14.5

Reasonable Disapproval. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge that Landlord’s disapproval of any proposed Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer) pursuant to Section 14.3(a) shall be deemed reasonably withheld if based upon any reasonable factor, including, without limitation, any or all of the following factors: (a) the proposed Transfer would result in more than two subleases of portions of the Premises being in effect at any one time during the Term; (b) the net effective rent payable by the Transferee (adjusted on a rentable square foot basis) is less than the net effective rent then being quoted by Landlord for new leases in the Building for comparable size space for a comparable period of time; (c) the proposed Transferee is an existing tenant of the Project or is negotiating with Landlord (or has negotiated with Landlord in the last six (6) months) for space in the Project; (d) the proposed Transferee is a governmental entity; (e) the portion of the Premises to be sublet or assigned is irregular in shape with inadequate means of ingress and egress; (f) the use of the Premises by the Transferee (i) is not permitted by the use provisions in Section 6 hereof, or (ii) violates any exclusive use granted by Landlord to another tenant in the Building; (g) the Transfer would likely result in significant increase in the use of the parking areas or Common Areas by the Transferee’s employees or visitors, and/or significantly increase the demand upon utilities and services to be provided by Landlord to the Premises; (h) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the Transferee does not have the financial capability to fulfill the obligations imposed by the Transfer; or (i) the Transferee is not in Landlord’s reasonable opinion of reputable or good character or consistent with Landlord’s desired tenant mix. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent to a proposed Transfer or otherwise has breached its obligations under this Section 14, Tenant’s and such Transferee’s only remedy shall be to seek a declaratory judgment and/or injunctive relief, and Tenant, on behalf of itself and, to the extent permitted by law, such proposed Transferee waives all other remedies against Landlord, including, without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages or to terminate this Lease.

14.6

No Release. No Transfer shall release Tenant of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. Landlord may require that any Transferee remit directly to Landlord on a monthly basis, all monies due Tenant by said Transferee, and each sublease shall provide that if Landlord gives said sublessee written notice that Tenant is in default under this Lease, said sublessee will thereafter make all payments due under the sublease directly to or as directed by Landlord, which payments will be credited against any payments due under this Lease. Tenant hereby irrevocably and unconditionally assigns to Landlord all rents and other sums payable under any sublease of the Premises; provided, however, that Landlord hereby grants Tenant a license to collect all such rents and other sums so long as Tenant is not in default under this Lease. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after the execution and delivery of any assignment or sublease, deliver a duplicate original copy there of to Landlord. However, the acceptance of rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof. Consent by Landlord to one Transfer shall not be deemed consent to any subsequent Transfer. In the event of default by any Transferee of Tenant or any successor of Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such Transferee or successor. Landlord may consent to subsequent assignments of the Lease or sublettings or amendments or modifications to the Lease with assignees of Tenant, without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant, and without obtaining its or their consent thereto and any such actions shall not relieve Tenant of liability under this Lease.

14.7

Administrative and Attorneys’ Fees. If Tenant effects a Transfer or requests the consent of Landlord to any Transfer, then Tenant shall, upon demand, pay Landlord a non-refundable administrative fee of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500.00), plus any reasonable attorneys’ and paralegal fees and costs incurred by Landlord in connection with such Transfer or request for consent (whether attributable to Landlord’s in-house attorneys or paralegals or otherwise). Acceptance of the One Thousand Five Hundred Dollar ($1,500.00) administrative fee and/or reimbursement of Landlord’s attorneys’ and paralegal fees shall in no event obligate Landlord to consent to any proposed Transfer.

14.8

Material Inducement. Tenant understands, acknowledges and agrees that (a) Landlord’s option to sublease from Tenant any space which Tenant proposes to sublease or terminate this Lease upon any proposed assignment or encumbrance of this Lease by Tenant as provided in Section 14.3(b) above rather than approve the proposed sublease, assignment or encumbrance, and (b) Landlord’s right to receive any excess consideration paid by a Transferee in connection with an approved Transfer as provided in Section 14.4(d) above, are a material inducement for Landlord’s agreement to lease the Premises to Tenant upon the terms and conditions herein set forth.

15. Entry by Landlord. Landlord and its employees and agents shall at all reasonable times have the right to enter the Premises to inspect the same, to supply janitorial service and any other service required to be provided by Landlord to Tenant under this Lease, to exhibit the Premises to prospective lenders or purchasers (or during the last year of the Term, to prospective tenants), to post notices of non-responsibility, and/or to alter, improve or repair the Premises or any other portion of the Building or Project, all without being deemed guilty of or liable for any breach of Landlord’s covenant of quiet enjoyment or any eviction of Tenant, and without abatement of rent. In exercising such entry rights, Landlord shall endeavor to minimize, as reasonably practicable, the interference with Tenant’s business, and shall provide Tenant with reasonable advance written notice of such entry (except in emergency situations and for scheduled services). For each of the foregoing purposes, Landlord shall at all times have and retain a key with which to unlock all of the doors in, upon and about the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults and safes, and Landlord shall have the means which Landlord may deem proper to open said doors in an emergency in order to obtain entry to the Premises. Any entry to the Premises obtained

by Landlord by any of said means or otherwise shall not under any circumstances be construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises or any portion thereof, or grounds for any abatement or reduction of rent and Landlord shall not have any liability to Tenant for any damages or losses on account of any such entry by Landlord except, subject to the provisions of Section 22.1, to the extent of Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

16. Utilities and Services.

16.1

Standard Utilities and Services. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, and the obligations of Tenant as set forth hereinbelow, Landlord shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Premises the following utilities and services, the costs of which shall be included in Operating Expenses, unless otherwise specified below (Landlord reserves the right to adopt reasonable, non-discriminatory modifications and additions to the following provisions from time to time):

(a)

Landlord shall make the elevator of the Building available for Tenant’s non-exclusive use, twenty-four (24) hours per day.

(b)

Landlord shall furnish during the Business Hours for the Building specified in Section 1.17 of the Summary (which Business Hours shall be subject to change from time to time by Landlord, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion), HVAC for the Premises as required in Landlord’s reasonable judgment for the comfortable and normal occupancy of the Premises. The cost of maintenance and service calls to adjust and regulate the HVAC system shall be charged to Tenant if the need for maintenance work results from either Tenant’s adjustment of room thermostats or Tenant’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section 16, including keeping window coverings closed as needed. Such work shall be charged at hourly rates equal to then-current journeyman’s wages for HVAC mechanics. If Tenant desires HVAC at any time other than during the Business Hours for the Building, Landlord shall provide such “after-hours” usage after advance reasonable request by Tenant, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent (and not as part of the Operating Expenses) the cost, as fairly determined by Landlord, of such after-hours usage (as well as the cost of any HVAC used by Tenant in excess of what Landlord considers reasonable or normal), including any minimum hour charges for after-hours requests and any special start-up costs for after-hours services which requires a special start-up (such as late evenings, weekends and holidays) together with an administrative fee of fifteen percent (15%) of the cost of such after-hours usage, which administrative fee shall also be payable by Tenant to Landlord for the cost of any other services provided by Landlord to Tenant that are not otherwise required to be provided by Landlord to Tenant hereunder.

(c)

Landlord shall furnish janitorial services to the Premises five (5) days per week pursuant to janitorial and cleaning specifications as may be adopted by Landlord from time to time. No person(s) other than those persons approved by Landlord shall be permitted to enter the Premises for such purposes. Janitorial service shall include ordinary dusting and cleaning by the janitor assigned to do such work and shall not include cleaning of carpets or rugs, except normal vacuuming, or moving of furniture, interior window cleaning, coffee or eating area cleaning and other special services. Such additional services may be rendered by Landlord pursuant to written agreement with Tenant as to the extent of such services and the payment of the cost thereof. Janitorial service will not be furnished on nights when rooms are occupied after 7:30 p.m. or to rooms which are locked unless a key is furnished to the Landlord for use by the janitorial contractor. Window cleaning shall be done only by Landlord, at such time and frequency as determined by Landlord at Landlord’s sole discretion. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of removal of any of Tenant’s refuse and rubbish to the extent that the same exceeds the refuse and rubbish usually attendant upon the use of the Premises as offices.

(d)

Landlord may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, provide security service or protection in the Building and/or the Project, in any manner deemed reasonable by Landlord at Landlord’s sole discretion, from the Commencement Date throughout the Term.

16.2

Tenant’s Obligations. Tenant shall control and be separately metered for the electricity, gas, water and telephone service for the Premises or other services which are metered (collectively, the “Electricity Utility Charges”), chargeable or provided to the Premises, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Tenant shall make all such payments directly to the utility provider as and when bills are rendered. Should Tenant fail to pay such amounts, Landlord shall have the right to pay the same on Tenant’s behalf and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in conjunction with such payment within ten (10) days after demand therefor. All such costs and expenses incurred by Landlord on Tenant’s behalf shall be deemed additional rent payable by Tenant and collectible by Landlord as such. At no time shall use of electricity in the Premises exceed the capacity of existing feeders and risers to or wiring in the Premises. Any risers or wiring to meet Tenant’s excess electrical requirements shall, upon Tenant’s written request, be installed by Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost, if, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the same are necessary and shall not (i) cause permanent damage or injury to the Project, the Building or the Premises, (ii) cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition, (iii) entail excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expenses, or (iv) interfere with or disturb other tenants or occupants of the Building. Tenant shall cooperate fully at all times with Landlord, and abide by all reasonable regulations and requirements which Landlord may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the Building’s services and systems. Tenant shall not use any apparatus or device in, upon or about the Premises which may in any way increase the amount of services or utilities usually furnished or supplied to the Premises or other premises in the Building. In addition, Tenant shall not connect any conduit, pipe, apparatus or other device to the Building’s water, waste or other supply lines or systems for any purpose. Neither Tenant nor its employees, agents, contractors, licensees or invitees shall at any time enter, adjust, tamper with, touch or otherwise in any manner affect the mechanical installations or facilities of the Building.

16.3

Failure to Provide Services. Landlord’s failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any of the services described in Section 16.1 above when such failure is caused by all or any of the following shall not result in any liability of Landlord: (a) casualty, accident, breakage or repairs; (b) acts of terrorism, strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances or labor disputes of any such character; (c) governmental regulation, moratorium or other governmental action; (d) inability, despite the exercise of reasonable diligence, to obtain electricity, water or fuel, including due to shortages, blackouts or any other cause; or (e) any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control. In addition, in the event of the failure of any said utilities or services, Tenant shall not be entitled to any abatement or reduction of rent (except as expressly provided in Sections 18.3 and 19.2 if such failure is a result of a damage or taking described therein), no eviction of Tenant shall result, and Tenant shall not be relieved from the performance of any covenant or agreement in this Lease. Furthermore, Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services as set forth in this Section 16. In the event of any stoppage or interruption of services or utilities, Landlord shall diligently attempt to resume such services or utilities as promptly as practicable. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(1) or any other applicable existing or future law, ordinance or governmental regulation permitting the termination of this Lease due to an interruption, failure or inability to provide any services.

16.4

Abatement of Rent When Tenant is Prevented From Using Premises. If Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, for five (5) consecutive business days (the “Eligibility Period”) as a result of (i) any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord after the Commencement Date, or (ii) any failure to provide to the Premises any of the essential utilities and services required to be provided in Sections 16.1(a), 16.1(b), or 16.1(c) above, (iii) any failure to provide access to the Premises, or (iv) Landlord’s exercise of its rights in Section 4.2 of this Lease, then Tenant’s obligation to pay Monthly Basic Rent and Operating Expenses shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, from and after the first (1st) day following the Eligibility Period and continuing until such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable square feet of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises; provided, however, that Tenant shall only be entitled to such abatement of rent if the matter described in clauses (i) (i.e, the matter giving rise to the repair, maintenance or alteration), (ii) or (iii) of this sentence is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s contractors or agents. To the extent Tenant shall be entitled to abatement of rent because of a damage or destruction pursuant to Section 18 or a taking pursuant to Section 19, then the Eligibility Period shall not be applicable.

17. Indemnification and Exculpation.

17.1

Tenant’s Assumption of Risk and Waiver. Except to the extent such matter is not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease and such matter is attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, Tenant’s employees, agents or invitees for: (i) any damage to property of Tenant, or of others, located in, on or about the Premises, nor for (ii) the loss of or damage to any property of Tenant or of others by theft or otherwise, (iii) any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, water, rain or leaks from any part of the Premises or from the pipes, plumbing works or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other places or by dampness or by any other cause of whatsoever nature, or (iv) any such damage caused by other tenants or persons in the Project, occupants of adjacent property of the Project, or the public, or caused by operations in construction of any private, public or quasi-public work. Landlord shall in no event be liable to Tenant for any consequential damages or for loss of revenue or income and Tenant waives any and all claims for any such damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 17.1, all property of Tenant, its agents, employees and invitees kept or stored on the Premises, whether leased or owned by any such parties, shall be so kept or stored at the sole risk of Tenant and Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from any claims arising out of damage to the same, including subrogation claims by Tenant’s insurance carriers.

17.2

Indemnification. Tenant shall be liable for, and shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord and Landlord’s partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, property manager, successors and assigns (collectively, “Landlord Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs (collectively, “Indemnified Claims”), arising or resulting from (a) any occurrence at the Premises, unless caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors and not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by Tenant under this Lease, (b) any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, contractors, subtenants, assignees, licensees or invitees (collectively, “Tenant Parties”); (c) the use of the Premises and Common Areas and conduct of Tenant’s business by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, or any other activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, in or about the Premises, the Building or elsewhere on the Project; and/or (d) any default by Tenant of any obligations on Tenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Lease or the terms of any contract or agreement to which Tenant is a party or by which it is bound, affecting this Lease or the Premises. The foregoing indemnification shall include, but not be limited to, any injury to, or death of, any person, or any loss of, or damage to, any property on the Premises, or on adjoining sidewalks, streets or ways, or connected with the use, condition or occupancy thereof, whether or not Landlord or its mortgagee has or should have knowledge or notice of the defect or conditions causing or contributing to such injury, death, loss or damage. In case any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord or any Landlord Indemnified Parties by reason of any such Indemnified Claims, Tenant, upon notice from Landlord, shall defend the same at Tenant’s expense by counsel approved in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from and against, any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of action, losses, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs (but not including any loss of business, loss of profits or other

consequential damages) arising or resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord at the Project.

17.3

Survival; No Release of Insurers. Tenant’s indemnification obligations under Section 17.2 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant’s covenants, agreements and indemnification in Sections 17.1 and 17.2 above are not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.

18. Damage or Destruction.

18.1

Landlord’s Rights and Obligations. In the event the Premises or any part of the Building is damaged by fire or other casualty to an extent not exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full replacement cost thereof, and Landlord’s contractor estimates in a writing delivered to the parties that the damage thereto is such that the Building and/or Premises may be repaired, reconstructed or restored to substantially its condition immediately prior to such damage within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of such casualty, and Landlord will receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the costs of such repairs, reconstruction and restoration, then Landlord shall commence and proceed diligently with the work of repair, reconstruction and restoration and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If, however, the Premises or any other part of the Building is damaged to an extent exceeding twenty-five percent (25%) of the full replacement cost thereof, or Landlord’s contractor estimates that such work of repair, reconstruction and restoration will require longer than one hundred twenty (120) days to complete, or Landlord will not receive insurance proceeds (and/or proceeds from Tenant, as applicable) sufficient to cover the costs of such repairs, reconstruction and restoration, then Landlord may elect to either:

(a)

repair, reconstruct and restore the portion of the Building and Premises damaged by such casualty (including the, to the extent of insurance proceeds received from Tenant, the Tenant Improvements and the Tenant Changes), in which case this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; or

(b)

terminate this Lease effective as of the date which is thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s election to so terminate.

Under any of the conditions of this Section 18.1, Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant of its intention to repair or terminate within the later of sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such casualty, or fifteen (15) days after Landlord’s receipt of said estimate from Landlord’s contractor.

18.2

Abatement of Rent. In the event that as a result of any such damage, repair, reconstruction and/or restoration of the Premises or the Building, Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, then the Monthly Basic Rent shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, during the period that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using and does not use the Premises or portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable square feet of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the damage is due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or any Tenant Parties, there shall be no abatement of Monthly Basic Rent, except to the extent that Landlord receives business interruption insurance attributable to the Lease and such damage. Except for abatement of Monthly Basic Rent as provided hereinabove, Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages for loss of, or interference with, Tenant’s business or use or access of all or any part of the Premises resulting from any such damage, repair, reconstruction or restoration.

18.3

Inability to Complete. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 18, in the event Landlord is obligated or elects to repair, reconstruct and/or restore the damaged portion of the Building or Premises pursuant to Section 18.1, but is delayed from completing such repair, reconstruction and/or restoration beyond the date which is six (6) months after the date estimated by Landlord’s contractor for completion thereof pursuant to Section 18.1, by reason of any causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord (including, without limitation, delays due to Force Majeure events as defined in Section 32.15, and delays caused by Tenant or any Tenant Parties), then Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Tenant.

18.4

Damage Near End of Term. In addition to the termination rights in Sections 18.1 and 18.4, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Building or Premises, and, in addition to the termination rights set forth in Section 18.6, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease if any damage to the Premises, occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Term of this Lease and Landlord’s contractor estimates in a writing delivered to the parties that the repair, reconstruction or restoration of such damage cannot be completed within the earlier of (a) the scheduled expiration date of the Lease Term, or (b) one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of such casualty.

18.5

Waiver of Termination Right. This Lease sets forth the terms and conditions upon which this Lease may terminate in the event of any damage or destruction. Accordingly, the parties hereby waive the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932, Subsection 2, and Section 1933, Subsection 4 (and any successor statutes thereof permitting the parties to terminate this Lease as a result of any damage or destruction).

18.6

Termination by Tenant. In the event the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, and Landlord’s contractor estimates in a writing delivered to the parties that the damage thereto is such that the repair, reconstruction or restoration of the Premises to substantially its condition immediately prior to such damage will take longer than one two hundred seventy (270) days to effectuate, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving

Landlord notice of such termination within ten (10) days of receipt by Tenant of Landlord’s contractor’s notice. In addition, if Landlord undertakes the repair, reconstruction or restoration of the Premises and fails to complete such repair, reconstruction or restoration within two hundred seventy (270) days thereafter, Tenant may terminate this Lease by giving Landlord notice of such termination prior to the completion of such repair, reconstruction or restoration.

19. Eminent Domain.

19.1

Substantial Taking. Subject to the provisions of Section 19.4 below in case the whole of the Premises, or such part thereof as shall substantially interfere with Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises as reasonably determined by Landlord, 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, either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to said authority.

19.2

Partial Taking; Abatement of Rent. In the event of a taking of a portion of the Premises which does not substantially interfere with the conduct of Tenant’s business, then, except as otherwise provided in the immediately following sentence, neither party shall have the right to terminate this Lease and Landlord shall thereafter proceed to make a functional unit of the remaining portion of the Premises (but only to the extent Landlord receives proceeds therefor from the condemning authority), and rent shall be abated with respect to the part of the Premises which Tenant shall be so deprived on account of such taking. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence to the contrary, if any part of the Building or the Site shall be taken (whether or not such taking substantially interferes with Tenant’s use of the Premises), Landlord may terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Tenant.

19.3

Condemnation Award. Subject to the provisions of Section 19.4 below, in connection with any taking of the Premises or Building, Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire amount of any award which may be made or given in such taking or condemnation, without deduction or apportionment for any estate or interest of Tenant, it being expressly understood and agreed by Tenant that no portion of any such award shall be allowed or paid to Tenant for any so-called bonus or excess value of this Lease, and such bonus or excess value shall be the sole property of Landlord. Tenant shall not assert any claim against Landlord or the taking authority for any compensation because of such taking (including any claim for bonus or excess value of this Lease); provided, however, if any portion of the Premises is taken, Tenant shall be granted the right to recover from the condemning authority (but not from Landlord) any compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and other personal property within the Premises and for Tenant’s relocation expenses.

19.4

Temporary Taking. In the event of a taking of the Premises or any part thereof for temporary use, (a) this Lease shall be and remain unaffected thereby and rent shall not abate, and (b) 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 perform its obligations under Section 9 with respect to surrender of the Premises and shall pay to Landlord the portion of any award which is attributable to any period of time beyond the Term expiration date. For purpose of this Section 19.4, a temporary taking shall be defined as a taking for a period of two hundred seventy (270) days or less.

19.5

Waiver of Termination Right. This Lease sets forth the terms and conditions upon which this Lease may terminate in the event of a taking. Accordingly, the parties waive the provisions of the California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130 and any successor or similar statutes permitting the parties to terminate this Lease as a result of a taking.

20. Tenant’s Insurance.

20.1

Types of Insurance. On or before the earlier of the Commencement Date or the date Tenant occupies all or any portion of the Premises or commences or causes to be commenced any work of any type in or on the Premises pursuant to this Lease, and continuing during the entire Term, Tenant shall obtain and keep in full force and effect, the following insurance:

(a)

Special Form (fka All Risk) insurance, including fire and extended coverage, sprinkler leakage, vandalism and malicious mischief upon property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and located in the Premises or Building, or for which Tenant is legally liable including, without limitation, furniture, equipment and any other personal property, in an amount not less then the full replacement cost thereof. In the event that there shall be a dispute as to the amount which comprises full replacement cost, the decision of Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord shall be conclusive.

(b)

Commercial general liability insurance coverage, on an occurrence basis (except for products and completed operations insurance, which may be on a claims made basis), including personal injury, bodily injury (including wrongful death), broad form property damage, operations hazard, owner’s protective coverage, contractual liability (including Tenant’s indemnification obligations under this Lease, including Section 17 hereof), liquor liability (if Tenant serves alcohol on the Premises), products and completed operations liability, and owned/non-owned auto liability, with an initial combined single limit of liability of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) (which may be obtained through a single policy or a combination of primary and umbrella policies). The limits of liability of such commercial general liability insurance shall be increased every five (5) years during the Term of this Lease to an amount reasonably required by Landlord.

(c)

Worker’s compensation and employer’s liability insurance, with limits no less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence, covering all persons employed in connection with any work done on or about the Premises for which claims for death or bodily injury could be asserted against Landlord, Tenant or the Premises.

(d)

Loss of income, extra expense and business interruption insurance in such amounts as will reimburse Tenant for direct or indirect loss of earnings attributable to all perils commonly insured against by prudent tenants or attributable to prevention of access to the Premises, Tenant’s parking areas or to the Building as a result of such perils.

(e)

Any other form or forms of insurance as Tenant or Landlord or the mortgagees of Landlord may reasonably require from time to time, in form, amounts and for insurance risks against which a prudent tenant would protect itself, but only to the extent such risks and amounts are available in the insurance market at commercially reasonable costs.

20.2

Requirements. Each policy required to be obtained by Tenant hereunder shall: (a) be issued by insurers which are approved by Landlord and/or Landlord’s mortgagees and are authorized to do business in the state in which the Building is located and are rated not less than financial class VII, and not less than policyholder rating A- in the most recent version of Best’s Key Rating Guide (provided that, in any event, the same insurance company shall provide the coverages described in Sections 20.1(a) and 20.1(d) above); (b) be in form reasonably satisfactory from time to time to Landlord; (c) name Tenant as named insured thereunder and shall name Landlord and, at Landlord’s request, Landlord’s mortgagees, ground lessors (if any) and managers of which Tenant has been informed in writing, as additional insureds thereunder, all as their respective interests may appear; (d) not have a deductible amount exceeding Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00), which amount shall be deemed self-insured with full waiver of subrogation); (e) specifically provide that the insurance afforded by such policy for the benefit of Landlord and Landlord’s mortgagees and ground lessors shall be primary, and any insurance carried by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagees and ground lessors shall be excess and non-contributing; (f) contain an endorsement that the insurer waives its right to subrogation as described in Section 22 below; (g) contain an undertaking by the insurer to notify Landlord (and the mortgagees and ground lessors of Landlord who are named as additional insureds) in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to any cancellation or other termination thereof; (h) contain a cross liability or severability of interest endorsement; and (i) be in amounts sufficient at all times to satisfy any coinsurance requirements thereof. Each such policy shall also provide that any loss otherwise payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding (i) any act or omission of Landlord or Landlord Indemnified Parties or Tenant which might, absent such provision, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment, (ii) the occupation or use of the Premises for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the provisions of such policy, (iii) any foreclosure or other action or proceeding taken by any mortgagee pursuant to any provision of the mortgage upon the happening of a default thereunder, or (iv) any change in title or ownership of the Premises. Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord, in no event later than the earlier of (i) the Commencement Date or (ii) the date Tenant takes possession of all or any part of the Premises, certificates from the insurance company evidencing the existence of such insurance and Tenant’s compliance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 20. Tenant shall cause replacement policies or certificates to be delivered to Landlord not less than ten (10) business days prior to the expiration of any such policy or policies. If any such initial or replacement certificates are not furnished within the time(s) specified herein, Tenant shall be deemed to be in material default under this Lease without the benefit of any additional notice or cure period provided in Section 23.1 below, and Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to procure such policies and certificates at Tenant’s expense.

20.3

Effect on Insurance. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done anything which will (a) violate or invalidate any insurance policy maintained by Landlord or Tenant hereunder, or (b) increase the costs of any insurance policy maintained by Landlord pursuant to Section 21 or otherwise with respect to the Building or the Project. If Tenant’s occupancy or conduct of its business in, on or about the Premises results in any increase in premiums for any insurance carried by Landlord with respect to the Building or the Project, Tenant shall pay such increase as additional rent within ten (10) days after being billed therefor by Landlord. If any insurance coverage carried by Landlord pursuant to Section 21 or otherwise with respect to the Building or the Project shall be cancelled or reduced (or cancellation or reduction thereof shall be threatened) by reason of the use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or by anyone permitted by Tenant to be upon the Premises, and if Tenant fails to remedy such condition within five (5) days after notice thereof, Tenant shall be deemed to be in default under this Lease, without the benefit of any additional notice or cure period specified in Section 23.1 below, and Landlord shall have all remedies provided in this Lease, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the right (but not the obligation) to enter upon the Premises and attempt to remedy such condition at Tenant’s cost.

21. Landlord’s Insurance. During the Term, Landlord shall insure the Building and the Premises (excluding, however, Tenant’s furniture, equipment and other personal property against damage by fire and standard extended coverage perils and with vandalism and malicious mischief endorsements, rental loss coverage, at Landlord’s option, earthquake damage coverage, and such additional coverage as Landlord deems appropriate. Landlord shall also carry commercial general liability insurance, in such reasonable amounts and with such reasonable deductibles as would be carried by a prudent owner of a similar building in the State of California. At Landlord’s option, all such insurance may be carried under any blanket or umbrella policies which Landlord has in force for other buildings and projects. In addition, at Landlord’s option, Landlord may elect to self-insure all or any part of such required insurance coverage. Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, carry any other form or forms of insurance as Landlord or the mortgagees or ground lessors of Landlord may reasonably determine is advisable. The cost of insurance obtained by Landlord pursuant to this Section 21 (including self-insured amounts and deductibles) shall be included in Operating Expenses.

22. Waiver of Claims; Waiver of Subrogation.

22.1

Mutual Waiver of Parties. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive their rights against each other with respect to any claims or damages or losses which are caused by or result from (a) occurrences insured against under any insurance policy carried by Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be) pursuant to the provisions of this Lease and enforceable at the time of such damage or loss, or (b) occurrences which would have been covered under any insurance required to be obtained and maintained by Landlord or Tenant (as the case may be) under Sections 20 and 21 of this Lease (as applicable) had such insurance been obtained and maintained as required therein. The foregoing waivers shall be in addition to, and not a limitation of, any other waivers or releases contained in this Lease.

22.2

Waiver of Insurers. Each party shall cause each property and loss of income insurance policy required to be obtained by it pursuant to Sections 20 and 21 to provide that the insurer waives all rights of recovery by way of subrogation against either Landlord or Tenant, as the case may be, in connection with any claims, losses and damages covered by such policy. If either party fails to maintain property or loss of income insurance required hereunder, such insurance shall be deemed to be self-insured with a deemed full waiver of subrogation as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

23. Tenant’s Default and Landlord’s Remedies.

23.1

Tenant’s Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default under this Lease by Tenant:

(a)

the abandonment of the Premises by Tenant. “Abandonment” is herein defined to include, but is not limited to, any absence by Tenant from the Premises for five (5) business days or longer while in default of any other provision of this Lease;

(b)

the failure by Tenant to make any payment of rent or additional rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder, where such failure continues for three (3) days after written notice thereof from Landlord that such payment was not received;

(c)

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 Sections 23.1(a) or (b) above, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant’s default is such that more than ten (10) 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 ten (10) day period and thereafter diligently prosecute such cure to completion, which completion shall occur not later than sixty (60) days from the date of such notice from Landlord;

(d)

(i) the making by Tenant or any guarantor hereof of any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (ii) the filing by or against Tenant or any guarantor hereof of a petition to have Tenant or any guarantor hereof 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 or any guarantor hereof, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days), (iii) 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 or of substantially all of guarantor’s assets, where possession is not restored to Tenant or guarantor within sixty (60) days, or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of substantially all of guarantor’s assets or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease where such seizure is not discharged within sixty (60) days;

(e)

any material representation or warranty made by Tenant or guarantor in this Lease or any other document delivered in connection with the execution and delivery of this Lease or pursuant to this Lease proves to be incorrect in any material respect; and

(f)

Tenant or guarantor shall be liquidated or dissolved or shall begin proceedings towards its liquidation or dissolution.

Any notice sent by Landlord to Tenant pursuant to this Section 23.1 shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161.

23.2

Landlord’s Remedies; Termination. In the event of any default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:

(a)

the worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus

(b)

the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(c)

the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus

(d)

any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom including, but not limited to: unamortized Tenant Improvement costs; reasonable attorneys’ fees; brokers’ commissions; the costs of refurbishment, alterations, renovation and repair of the Premises; and removal (including the repair of any damage caused by such removal) and storage (or disposal) of Tenant’s personal property, equipment, fixtures, Tenant Changes, Tenant Improvements and any other items which Tenant is required under this Lease to remove but does not remove.

As used in Sections 23.2(a) and 23.2(b) above, the “worth at the time of award “ is computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate set forth in Section 1.14 of the Summary. As used in Section 23.2(c) 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 at the time of award plus one percent (1%).

23.3

Landlord’s Remedies; Re-Entry Rights. In the event of any such default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, at law or in equity, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed, stored and/or disposed of pursuant to Section 12.4 of this Lease or any other procedures permitted by applicable law. No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 23.3, and no acceptance of surrender of the Premises or other action on Landlord’s part, shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

23.4

Continuation of Lease. Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.

23.5

Landlord’s Right to Perform. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Lease, all covenants and agreements by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any abatement or offset of rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money (other than Monthly Basic Rent) or perform any other act on its part to be paid or performed hereunder and such failure shall continue for three (3) days with respect to monetary obligations (or ten (10) days with respect to non-monetary obligations, except in case of emergencies, in which such case, such shorter period of time as is reasonable under the circumstances) after Tenant’s receipt of written notice thereof from Landlord, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any of Tenant’s obligations, make such payment or perform such other act on behalf of Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary incidental costs incurred by Landlord in performing such other acts shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) days after demand therefor as additional rent.

23.6

Interest. If any monthly installment of Rent or Operating Expenses, or any other amount payable by Tenant hereunder is not received by Landlord by the date when due, it shall bear interest at the Interest Rate set forth in Section 1.14 of the Summary from the date due until paid. All interest, and any late charges imposed pursuant to Section 23.7 below, shall be considered additional rent due from Tenant to Landlord under the terms of this Lease.

23.7		Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that, in addition to interest costs, the late payments by Tenant to Landlord of any Monthly Basic Rent or other sums due under this Lease will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impractical to fix. Such other costs include, without limitation, processing, administrative and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any mortgage, deed of trust or related loan documents encumbering the Premises, the Building or the Project. Accordingly, if any monthly installment of Monthly Basic Rent or Operating Expenses or any other amount payable by Tenant hereunder is not received by Landlord by the due date thereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum of ten percent (10%) of the overdue amount as a late charge, but in no event more than the maximum late charge allowed by law. The parties agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of any late payment as hereinabove referred to by Tenant, and the payment of late charges and interest are distinct and separate in that the payment of interest is to compensate Landlord for the use of Landlord’s money by Tenant, while the payment of late charges is to compensate Landlord for Landlord’s processing, administrative and other costs incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s delinquent payments. Acceptance of a late charge or interest shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or at law or in equity now or hereafter in effect.

23.8		Intentionally Omitted.

23.9

Rights and Remedies Cumulative. All rights, options and remedies of Landlord contained in this Section 23 and elsewhere in this Lease (including Section 28 below) shall be construed and held to be cumulative, and no one of them shall be exclusive of the other, and Landlord shall have the right to pursue any one or all of such remedies or any other remedy or relief which may be provided by law or in equity, whether or not stated in this Lease. Nothing in this Section 23 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect Tenant’s indemnification of Landlord pursuant to any provision of this Lease.

23.10

Tenant’s Waiver of Redemption. Tenant hereby waives and surrenders for itself and all those claiming under it, including creditors of all kinds, (i) any right and privilege which it or any of them may have under any present or future law to redeem any of the Premises or to have a continuance of this Lease after termination of this Lease or of Tenant’s right of occupancy or possession pursuant to any court order or any provision hereof, and (ii) the benefits of any present or future law which exempts property from liability for debt or for distress for rent.

23.11

Costs Upon Default and Litigation. Tenant shall pay to Landlord and its mortgagees as additional rent all the expenses incurred by Landlord or its mortgagees in connection with any default by Tenant hereunder or the exercise of any remedy by reason of any default by Tenant hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. If Landlord or its mortgagees shall be made a party to any litigation commenced against Tenant or any litigation pertaining to this Lease or the Premises, at the option of Landlord and/or its mortgagees, Tenant, at its expense, shall provide Landlord and/or its mortgagees with counsel approved by Landlord and/or its mortgagees and shall pay all costs incurred or paid by Landlord and/or its mortgagees in connection with such litigation.

24. Landlord’s Default. Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord under this Lease unless Landlord has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice from Tenant specifying in detail Landlord’s failure to perform; provided however, that 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 deemed in default if it commences such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion. Upon any such uncured default by Landlord, Tenant may exercise any of its rights provided in law or at equity; provided, however: (a) Tenant shall have no right to offset or abate rent in the event of any default by Landlord under this Lease, except to the extent offset rights are specifically provided to Tenant in this Lease; (b) Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease; (c) Tenant’s rights and remedies hereunder shall be limited to the extent (i) Tenant has expressly waived in this Lease any of such rights or remedies and/or (ii) this Lease otherwise expressly limits Tenant’s rights or remedies, including the limitation on Landlord’s liability contained in Section 31 hereof, and (d) in no event will Landlord be liable for consequential damages or loss of business profits.

25. Subordination. Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, and at the election of Landlord or any mortgagee of a mortgage or a beneficiary of a deed of trust now or hereafter encumbering all or any portion of the Building or Site, or any lessor of any ground or master lease now or hereafter affecting all or any portion of the Building or Site, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to such ground or master leases (and such extensions and modifications thereof), and to the lien of such mortgages and deeds of trust (as well as to any advances made thereunder and to all renewals, replacements, modifications and extensions thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and any mortgagee and/or ground lessor of Landlord (“Holder”), as applicable, shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any or all ground or master leases or the lien of any or all mortgages or deeds of trust to this Lease. In the event that any ground or master 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, at the election of Landlord’s successor in interest, Tenant shall attorn to and become the tenant of such successor. Tenant hereby waives its rights under any current or future law which gives or purports to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event of any such foreclosure proceeding or sale. Tenant covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to Landlord within ten (10) days after receipt of written demand by Landlord and in the form reasonably required by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such Holder or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust or Tenant’s agreement to attorn. Such documents may include commercially reasonable provisions in favor of such Holder, including, without limitation, additional time on behalf of such Holder to cure defaults of the Landlord and provide that (a) neither Holder nor any successor-in-interest shall be bound by (i) any payment of the rent, additional rent, or other sum due under this Lease for more than 1 month in advance or (ii) any amendment or modification of the Lease made without the express written consent of Holder or any successor-in-interest; (b) neither Holder nor any successor-in-interest will be liable for (i) any act or omission or warranties of any prior landlord (including Landlord), (ii) the breach of any warranties or obligations relating to construction of improvements on the Project or any tenant finish work performed or to have been performed by any prior landlord (including Landlord), or (iii) the return of any security deposit, except to the extent such deposits have been received by Holder; and (c) neither Holder nor any successor-in-interest shall be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord). Should Tenant fail to sign and return any such documents within said ten day period, Tenant shall be in default hereunder without the benefit of any additional notice or cure periods specified in Section 23.1 above. Tenant shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably approved by Landlord in writing) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) attributable to any failure by Tenant to timely deliver any such documents to Landlord.

26. Estoppel Certificate.

26.1

Tenant’s Obligations. Within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s written request, Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, in a form substantially similar to the form of Exhibit “F” attached hereto, certifying: (a) the Commencement Date of this Lease; (b) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if modified, that this Lease is in full force and effect as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications); (c) the date to which the rent and other sums payable under this Lease have been paid; (d) that there are not, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, any defaults under this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant, except as specified in such certificate; and (e) such other matters as are reasonably requested by Landlord. Any such estoppel certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 26.1 may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of any portion of the Site, as well as their assignees.

26.2

Tenant’s Failure to Deliver. Tenant’s failure to deliver such estoppel certificate within such time shall constitute a default hereunder without the applicability of the notice and cure periods specified in Section 23.1 above and

shall be conclusive upon Tenant that: (a) this Lease is in full force and effect without modification, except as may be represented by Landlord; (b) there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s or Tenant’s performance (other than Tenant’s failure to deliver the estoppel certificate); and (c) not more than one (1) month’s rental has been paid in advance. Tenant shall indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably approved by Landlord in writing) and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, judgments, suits, causes of action, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) attributable to any failure by Tenant to timely deliver any such estoppel certificate to Landlord pursuant to Section 26.1 above.

27. Intentionally Omitted.

28. Modification and Cure Rights of Landlord’s Mortgagees and Lessors.

28.1

Modifications. If, in connection with Landlord’s obtaining or entering into any financing or ground lease for any portion of the Building or Site, the lender or ground lessor shall request modifications to this Lease, Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after request therefor, execute an amendment to this Lease including such modifications, provided such modifications are reasonable, do not increase the obligations of Tenant hereunder, or adversely affect the leasehold estate created hereby or Tenant’s rights hereunder.

28.2

Cure Rights. In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgagee covering the Premises or ground lessor of Landlord whose address shall have been furnished to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary, mortgagee or ground lessor a reasonable opportunity to cure the default (including with respect to any such beneficiary or mortgagee, time to obtain possession of the Premises, subject to this Lease and Tenant’s rights hereunder, by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if such should prove necessary to effect a cure).

29. Quiet Enjoyment. Landlord covenants and agrees with Tenant that, upon Tenant performing all of the covenants and provisions on Tenant’s part to be observed and performed under this Lease (including payment of rent hereunder), Tenant shall have the right to use and occupy the Premises in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease as against all persons claiming by, through or under Landlord.

30. Transfer of Landlord’s Interest. The term “Landlord” as used in this Lease, so far as covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord are concerned, shall be limited to mean and include only the owner or owners, at the time in question, of the fee title to, or a lessee’s interest in a ground lease of, the Site. In the event of any transfer or conveyance of any such title or interest (other than a transfer for security purposes only), the transferor shall be automatically relieved of all covenants and obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease accruing after the date of such transfer or conveyance. Landlord and Landlord’s transferees and assignees shall have the absolute right to transfer all or any portion of their respective title and interest in the Site, the Building, the Premises and/or this Lease without the consent of Tenant, and such transfer or subsequent transfer shall not be deemed a violation on Landlord’s part of any of the terms and conditions of this Lease.

31. Limitation on Landlord’s Liability. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, the obligations of Landlord under this Lease (including any actual or alleged breach or default by Landlord) do not constitute personal obligations of the individual partners, directors, officers, members or shareholders of Landlord or Landlord’s partners, and Tenant shall not seek recourse against the individual partners, directors, officers, members or shareholders of Landlord or against Landlord’s partners or any other persons or entities having any interest in Landlord, or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Lease. In addition, in consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder to Tenant and notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby covenants and agrees for itself and all of its successors and assigns that the liability of Landlord for its obligations under this Lease (including any liability as a result of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default hereunder by Landlord), shall be limited solely to, and Tenant’s and its successors’ and assigns’ sole and exclusive remedy shall be against, Landlord’s interest in the Building, and no other assets of Landlord.

32.4

Professional Fees. If either Landlord or Tenant should bring suit against the other with respect to this Lease, including for unlawful detainer or any other relief against the other hereunder, then all costs and expenses incurred by the prevailing party therein (including, without limitation, its actual appraisers’, accountants’, attorneys’ and other professional fees and court costs), shall be paid by the other party.

Waiver. The waiver by either party of any breach by the other party 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 and condition herein contained, nor shall any custom or practice which may become established between the parties in the administration of the terms hereof be deemed a waiver of, or in any way affect, the right of any party to insist upon the performance by the other in strict accordance with said terms.

		excuse Tenant from the payment of Monthly Basic Rent, Operating Expenses, additional rent or any other payments strictly in accordance with the terms of this Lease.

32.17

Nondisclosure of Lease Terms. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms could adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord’s relationship with other tenants.

32.18

Independent Covenants. This Lease shall be construed as though the covenants herein between Landlord and Tenant are independent and not dependent and Tenant hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute to the contrary and agrees that if Landlord fails to perform its obligations set forth herein, Tenant shall not be entitled to make any repairs or perform any acts hereunder at Landlord’s expense or to any setoff of the Rent or other amounts owing hereunder against Landlord; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way impair the right of Tenant to commence a separate action against Landlord for any violation by Landlord of the provisions hereof so long as notice is first given to Landlord and any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Building, Project or any portion thereof, of whose address Tenant has theretofore been notified, and an opportunity is granted to Landlord and such holder to correct such violations as provided above.

33.5		Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease and each of its provisions.

35. Consent to Judicial Reference. If and to the extent that Section 34 immediately above is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or is otherwise not applied by any such court, each of Landlord and Tenant hereby consents and agrees that (a) any and all Disputes shall be heard by a referee in accordance with the general reference provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, sitting without a jury in the County of San Diego, California, (b) such referee shall hear and determine all of the issues in any Dispute (whether of fact or of law), including issues pertaining to a “provisional remedy” as defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.8, including without limitation, entering restraining orders, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing temporary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers, and shall report a statement of decision; provided that, if during the course of any Dispute, any party desires to seek such a “provisional remedy” at a time when a referee has not yet been appointed or is otherwise unavailable to hear the request for such provisional remedy, then such party may apply to the San Diego County Superior Court for such provisional relief, and (c) pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 640(a), judgment may be entered upon the decision of such referee in the same manner as if the Dispute had been tried directly by a court. The parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable and good faith efforts to agree upon and select such referee, provided that such referee must be a retired California state or federal judge, and further provided that if the parties cannot agree upon a referee, the referee shall be appointed by the Presiding Judge of the San Diego County Superior Court. Each party hereto acknowledges that this consent and agreement is a material inducement to enter into this Agreement, the Loan Documents and all other agreements and instruments provided for herein or therein, and that each will continue to be bound by and to rely on this consent and agreement in their related future dealings. The parties shall share the cost of the referee and reference proceedings equally; provided that, the referee may award attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of the referee and reference proceeding fees and costs to the prevailing party, whereupon all referee and reference proceeding fees and charges will be payable by the non-prevailing party (as so determined by the referee).

This consent and agreement is irrevocable, meaning that it may not be modified either orally or in writing, and this consent and agreement shall apply to any subsequent amendments, renewals, supplements, or modifications to this Agreement or any other agreement or document entered into between the parties in connection with this Agreement. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as evidence of either or both parties’ consent and agreement to have any and all Disputes heard and determined by a referee under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638.

WORK LETTER AGREEMENT

This Work Letter Agreement (“Work Letter Agreement“) sets forth the terms and conditions relating to the construction of improvements for the Premises. All references in this Work Letter Agreement to “the Lease” shall mean the relevant portions of the Lease to which this Work Letter Agreement is attached as Exhibit ”C”.

SECTION 1.

BASE, SHELL AND CORE

Landlord has constructed, through its contractor, the base, shell and core of the Premises and of the Building (collectively, the “Base, Shell and Core”), and Tenant shall accept the Base, Shell and Core in its current “As-Is” condition existing as of the date of the Lease and the Commencement Date. Landlord shall install in the Premises certain “Tenant Improvements” (as defined below) pursuant to the provisions of this Work Letter Agreement. Except for the Tenant Improvement work described in this Work Letter Agreement and Landlord’s maintenance and repair obligations expressly set forth in the Lease, Landlord shall not be obligated to make or pay for any alterations or improvements to the Premises, the Building or the Project.

SECTION 2.

CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS FOR THE PREMISES

Prior to the execution of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant have approved a detailed space plan for the construction of certain improvements in the Premises, which space plan has been prepared by BPA Architecture Planning Interiors, dated June 22, 2006, attached hereto as Schedule 1 (the “Final Space Plan”). Based upon and in conformity with the Final Space Plan, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers to prepare and deliver to Tenant, for Tenant’s approval, detailed specifications and engineered working drawings for the tenant improvements shown on the Final Space Plan (the “Working Drawings”). The Working Drawings shall incorporate modifications to the Final Space Plan as necessary to comply with the floor load and other structural and system requirements of the Building. To the extent that the finishes and specifications are not completely set forth in the Final Space Plan for any portion of the tenant improvements depicted thereon, the actual specifications and finish work shall be in accordance with the specifications for the Building’s standard tenant improvement items, as determined by Landlord. Within three (3) business days after Tenant’s receipt of the Working Drawings, Tenant shall approve or disapprove the same, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that Tenant may only disapprove the Working Drawings to the extent such Working Drawings are inconsistent with the Final Space Plan and only if Tenant delivers to Landlord, within such three (3) business days period, specific changes proposed by Tenant which are consistent with the Final Space Plan and do not constitute changes which would result in any of the circumstances described in items (i) through (iv) below. If any such revisions are timely and properly proposed by Tenant, Landlord shall cause its architect and engineers to revise the Working Drawings to incorporate such revisions and submit the same for Tenant’s approval in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and the parties shall follow the foregoing procedures for approving the Working Drawings until the same are finally approved by Landlord and Tenant. Upon Landlord’s and Tenant’s approval of the Working Drawings, the same shall be known as the “Approved Working Drawings.” The tenant improvements shown on the Approved Working Drawings shall be referred to herein as the “Tenant Improvements.” Once the Approved Working Drawings have been approved by Landlord and Tenant, Tenant shall make no changes, change orders or modifications thereto without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion if such change or modification would: (i) directly or indirectly delay the Substantial Completion of the Premises; (ii) increase the cost of designing or constructing the Tenant Improvements above the cost of the tenant improvements depicted in the Final Space Plan; (iii) be of a quality lower than the quality of the standard tenant improvement items for the Building; and/or (iv) require any changes to the Base, Shell and Core or structural improvements or systems of the Building. The Final Space Plan, Working Drawings and Approved Working Drawings shall be collectively referred to herein as, the “Construction Drawings.”

SECTION 3.

CONSTRUCTION AND PAYMENT FOR COSTS OF TENANT IMPROVEMENTS

Landlord shall cause a contractor designated by Landlord (the “Contractor”) to (i) obtain all applicable building permits for construction of the Tenant Improvements, and (ii) construct the Tenant Improvements as depicted on the Approved Working Drawings, in compliance with such building permits and all applicable laws in effect at the time of construction, and in good workmanlike manner. Except as otherwise provided in this Work Letter Agreement, Landlord shall pay for the cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements. The cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements shall include Landlord’s construction supervision and management fee in an amount equal to the product of (i) five percent (5%) and (ii) the total cost of the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements. In the event Tenant requests any changes, change orders or modifications to the Working Drawings and/or the Approved Working Drawings (which Landlord approves pursuant to Section 2 above) which increase the cost to construct the Tenant Improvements above the cost of the tenant improvements as described in the Final Space Plan, Tenant shall pay such increased cost to Landlord immediately upon Landlord’s request therefor, and, in any event, prior to the date Landlord causes the Contractor to commence construction of the changes, change orders or modifications. In no event

C-1

shall Landlord be obligated to pay for any of Tenant’s furniture, computer systems, telephone systems, equipment or other personal property which may be depicted on the Construction Drawings; such items shall be paid for by Tenant.

SECTION 4.

SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

4.1 Substantial Completion. For purposes of the Lease, including for purposes of determining the Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Summary to the Lease), “Substantial Completion” of the Premises shall occur upon the completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Premises pursuant to the Approved Working Drawings, with the exception of any punch list items that do not materially and adversely affect Tenant’s use and occupancy of the Premises and any tenant fixtures, work-stations, built-in furniture, or equipment to be installed by Tenant or under the supervision of Contractor.

4.2 Delay of the Substantial Completion of the Premises. If there shall be a delay or there are delays in the Substantial Completion of the Premises as a direct, indirect, partial, or total result of any of the following (collectively, “Tenant Delays”):

4.2.1 Tenant’s failure to timely approve the Working Drawings or any other matter requiring Tenant’s approval;

4.2.2 a breach by Tenant of the terms of this Work Letter Agreement or the Lease;

4.2.3 Tenant’s request for changes in any of the Construction Drawings;

4.2.4 Tenant’s requirement for materials, components, finishes or improvements which are not available in a commercially reasonable time given the anticipated date of Substantial Completion of the Premises, as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Summary of the Lease, or which are different from, or not included in, Landlord’s standard tenant improvement items for the Building;

4.2.5 changes to the Base, Shell and Core, structural components or structural components or systems of the Building required by the Approved Working Drawings;

4.2.6 any changes in the Construction Drawings and/or the Tenant Improvements required by applicable laws if such changes are directly attributable to Tenant’s use of the Premises or Tenant’s specialized tenant improvement(s) (as determined by Landlord); or

4.2.7 any other acts or omissions of Tenant, or its agents, or employees;

then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease and regardless of the actual date of Substantial Completion, the Commencement Date (as set forth in Section 1.7 of the Summary) shall be deemed to be the date the Commencement Date would have occurred if no Tenant Delays, as set forth above, had occurred.

SECTION 5.

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 Tenant’s Entry Into the Premises Prior to Substantial Completion. Subject to the terms hereof and provided that Tenant and its agents do not interfere with Contractor’s work in the Building and the Premises, at Landlord’s reasonable discretion, Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow Tenant access to the Premises not less than fourteen (14) days prior to the anticipated Substantial Completion of the Premises for the purpose of Tenant installing overstandard equipment or fixtures (including Tenant’s data and telephone equipment) and Tenant’s furniture in the Premises. Prior to Tenant’s entry into the Premises as permitted by the terms of this Section 5.1, Tenant shall submit a schedule to Landlord and Contractor, for their approval, which schedule shall detail the timing and purpose of Tenant’s entry. In connection with any such entry, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant’s employees, agents, contractors, consultants, workmen, mechanics, suppliers and invitees shall fully cooperate, work in harmony and not, in any manner, interfere with Landlord or Landlord’s Contractor, agents or representatives in performing work in the Building and the Premises, or interfere with the general operation of the Building and/or the Project. If at any time any such person representing Tenant shall not be cooperative or shall otherwise cause or threaten to cause any such disharmony or interference, including, without limitation, labor disharmony, and Tenant fails to immediately institute and maintain corrective actions as directed by Landlord, then Landlord may revoke Tenant’s entry rights upon twenty-four (24) hours’ prior written notice to Tenant. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that any such entry into and occupancy of the Premises or any portion thereof by Tenant or any person or entity working for or on behalf of Tenant shall be deemed to be subject to all of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease, excluding only the covenant to pay Basic Rent (until the occurrence of the Commencement Date). Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to any of Tenant’s work made in or about the Premises in connection with such entry or to any property placed therein prior to the Commencement Date, the same being at Tenant’s sole risk and liability. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for any damage to any portion of the Premises, including the Tenant Improvement work, caused by Tenant or any of Tenant’s employees, agents, contractors, consultants, workmen, mechanics, suppliers and invitees. In the event that the performance of Tenant’s work in connection with such entry causes extra costs to be incurred by Landlord or requires the use of any Building services, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for such extra costs and/or shall pay Landlord for such Building services at Landlord’s standard rates then in effect. In addition, Tenant shall hold Landlord harmless from and indemnify, protect and defend Landlord against

C-2

any loss or damage to the Premises or Project and against injury to any persons caused by Tenant’s actions pursuant to this Section 5.1.

5.2 Intentionally Omitted.

5.3 Tenant’s Representative. Tenant has designated Graham Cooper as its sole representative with respect to the matters set forth in this Work Letter Agreement, who shall have full authority and responsibility to act on behalf of the Tenant as required in this Work Letter Agreement.

5.4 Landlord’s Representative. Landlord has designated John Couvillion as its sole representative with respect to the matters set forth in this Work Letter Agreement, who, until further notice to Tenant, shall have full authority and responsibility to act on behalf of the Landlord as required in this Work Letter Agreement.

5.5 Time of the Essence in This Work Letter Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated, all references herein to a “number of days” shall mean and refer to calendar days. If any item requiring approval is timely disapproved by Landlord, the procedure for preparation of the document and approval thereof shall be repeated until the document is approved by Landlord. Both Landlord and Tenant shall use commercially reasonable, good faith, efforts and all due diligence to cooperate with each other to complete all phases of the Construction Drawings and the permitting process and to receive the permits, as soon as possible after the execution of the Lease, and, in that regard, shall meet on a scheduled basis to be determined by Landlord and Tenant, to discuss progress in connection with the same.

5.6 Tenant’s Lease Default. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, if an event of default by Tenant as described in Section 23 of the Lease or any default by Tenant under this Work Letter Agreement has occurred at any time on or before the Substantial Completion of the Premises and remains after the expiration of applicable notice and cure periods, then (i) in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord pursuant to the Lease, at law and/or in equity, Landlord shall have the right to cause Contractor to suspend the construction of the Premises (in which case, Tenant shall be responsible for any delay in the Substantial Completion of the Premises caused by such work stoppage as set forth in Section 4.2 of this Work Letter Agreement), and (ii) all other obligations of Landlord under the terms of this Work Letter Agreement shall be forgiven until such time as such default is cured pursuant to the terms of the Lease (in which case, Tenant shall be responsible for any delay in the Substantial Completion of the Premises caused by such inaction by Landlord). In addition, if the Lease is terminated prior to the Commencement Date, for any reason due to a default by Tenant as described in Section 23 of the Lease or under this Work Letter Agreement, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord under the Lease, at law and/or in equity, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent under the Lease, within five (5) days of receipt of a statement therefor, any and all costs incurred by Landlord and not reimbursed or otherwise paid by Tenant through the date of such termination in connection with the Tenant Improvements to the extent planned, installed and/or constructed as of such date of termination, including, but not limited to, any costs related to the removal of all or any portion of the Tenant Improvements and restoration costs related thereto.
