Landlord also agrees that Landlord shall install a new exhaust system for the Premises as soon as reasonably practicable following Tenant’s written request to Landlord, as more particularly set forth in Exhibit F-4 attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to install such exhaust system prior to the Commencement Date so long as the timing of Tenant’s delivery of written notice to Landlord provides Landlord with a commercially reasonable amount of time to do so.

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that, among other circumstances for which Landlord could reasonably withhold consent to a proposed Transfer, it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent where (a) Tenant is or has been in default of its obligations under this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, (b) the use to be made of the Premises by the proposed Transferee is prohibited under this Lease or differs from the uses permitted under this Lease, (c) the proposed Transferee or its business is subject to compliance with additional requirements of the ADA beyond those requirements which are applicable to Tenant, unless the proposed Transferee shall (1) first deliver plans and specifications for complying with such additional requirements (the “Transfer Plans and Specifications”) and obtain Landlord’s written consent thereto, and (2) comply with all Landlord’s conditions contained in such consent, (d) the proposed Transferee does not intend to occupy a substantial portion of the Premises assigned or sublet to it, (e) Landlord reasonably disapproves of the proposed Transferee’s business operating ability or history or creditworthiness or the character of the business to be conducted by the proposed Transferee at the Premises, (0 the proposed Transferee is a governmental agency or unit or an existing tenant in the Industrial Center, (g) the proposed Transfer would violate any “exclusive” rights of any occupants in the Industrial Center or cause Landlord to violate another agreement or obligation to which Landlord is a party or otherwise subject, (h) Landlord or Landlord’s agent has shown space in the Industrial Center to the proposed Transferee or responded to any inquiries from the proposed Transferee or the proposed Transferee’s agent concerning availability of space in the Industrial Center, at any time within the preceding twelve (12) months, (i) Landlord otherwise reasonably determines that the proposed Transfer would have the effect of decreasing the value of the Building or the Industrial Center, or increasing the expenses associated with operating, maintaining and repairing the Industrial Center, (j) either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee: (i) occupies space in the Building at the time of the request for consent, (ii) is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the Building at such time, or (in) has negotiated with Landlord during the 12 month period immediately preceding the Tenant’s Notice, (k) the rent proposed to be charged by Tenant to the proposed Transferee during the term of such Transfer, calculated using a present value analysis, is less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the rent then being quoted by Landlord, at the proposed time of such Transfer, for comparable space in the Building or any other Building in the Industrial Center for a comparable term, calculated using a present value system, or (1) the proposed Transferee will use, store or handle Hazardous Substances in or about the Premises of a type, nature or quantity not then acceptable to Landlord.

12.4 Effectiveness of Transfer and Continuing Obligations. Prior to the date on which any permitted Transfer becomes effective, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord (i) a counterpart of the fully executed Transfer document, (ii) an executed Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto (the “Transferee HazMat Certificate”), and (iii) Landlord’s form of Consent to Assignment or Consent to Sublease, as applicable, executed by Tenant and the Transferee in which each of Tenant and the Transferee confirms its obligations pursuant to this Lease. Failure or refusal of a Transferee to execute any such consent instrument shall not release or discharge the Transferee from its obligation to do so or from any liability as provided herein. The voluntary, involuntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, or a mutual cancellation by Landlord and Tenant, shall not work a merger, and any such surrender or cancellation shall, at the option of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases. Each permitted Transferee shall assume and be deemed to assume this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Tenant for payment of Rent and for the due performance of, and compliance with all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements herein contained on Tenant’s part to be performed or complied with, for the Term of this Lease. No Transfer shall affect the continuing primary liability of Tenant (which, following assignment, shall be joint and several with the assignee), and Tenant shall not be released from performing any of the terms,

 

10


covenants and conditions of this Lease. An assignee of Tenant shall become directly liable to Landlord for all obligations of Tenant hereunder, but no Transfer by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligations or liability under this Lease whether occurring before or after such consent, assignment, subletting or other Transfer. The acceptance of any or all of the Rent by Landlord from any other person (whether or not such person is an occupant of the Premises) shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any Transfer. Except as set forth in Paragraph 12.9 below, if Tenant is a business entity, the direct or indirect transfer of more than fifty percent (50%) of the ownership interest of the entity (whether in a single transaction or in the aggregate through more than one transaction) shall be deemed a Transfer and shall be subject to all the provisions hereof and in such event, it shall be a condition to Landlord’s consent to such ownership change that such entities or persons acquiring such ownership interest assume, as a primary obligor, all rights and obligations of Tenant under this Lease (and such entities and persons shall execute all documents reasonably required to effectuate such assumption). Any and all options, first rights of refusal, tenant improvement allowances and other similar rights granted to Tenant in this Lease, if any, shall not be assignable by Tenant unless expressly authorized in writing by Landlord (which shall be in Landlord’s sole discretion). Except as set forth in Paragraph 12.9 below, any transfer made without Landlord’s prior written consent, shall, at Landlord’s option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a material default by Tenant of this Lease. As Additional Rent hereunder. Tenant shall pay to Landlord each time it requests a Transfer, an administrative fee in the amount of two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) and, in addition, Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for actual legal and other expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with any actual or proposed Transfer.

12.5 Rent Adjustment/Recapture. In the event the proposed Transfer (together with any prior Transfers) is of an amount of square footage equal to or greater than fifty percent (50%) of the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to recapture the Subject Space described in the Tenant’s Notice. If such recapture notice is given, it shall serve to terminate this Lease with respect to the proposed Subject Space, or, if the proposed Subject Space covers all the Premises, it shall serve to terminate the entire Term of this Lease, in either case, as of the Proposed Effective Date. However, no termination of this Lease with respect to part or all of the Premises shall become effective without the prior written consent, where necessary, of the holder of each deed of trust encumbering the Premises or any other portion of the Industrial Center. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent shall be adjusted on the basis of the proportion of rentable square feet retained by Tenant to the rentable square feet originally demised and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect.

12.6 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto. Tenant shall pay to Landlord monthly, as Additional Rent, at the same time as the monthly installments of Rent are payable hereunder, fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Premium, after first deducting commercially reasonable brokerage commissions and reasonable attorneys’ fees. The term “Transfer Premium’” shall mean all rent, additional rent and other consideration payable by such Transferee which either initially or over the term of the Transfer exceeds the Rent or pro rata portion of the Rent, as the case may be, for such space reserved in the Lease.

12.7 Waiver. Notwithstanding any Transfer, or any indulgences, waivers or extensions of time granted by Landlord to any Transferee, or failure by Landlord to take action against any Transferee, Tenant agrees that Landlord may, at its option, proceed against Tenant without having taken action against or joined such Transferee, except that Tenant shall have the benefit of any indulgences, waivers and extensions of time granted to any such Transferee.

12.8 Special Transfer Prohibitions. Notwithstanding anything set forth above to the contrary. Tenant may not (a) sublet the Premises or assign this Lease to any person or entity in which Landlord owns an interest, directly or indirectly (by applying constructive ownership rules set forth in Section 856(d)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”); or (b) sublet the Premises or assign this Lease in any other manner which could cause any portion of the amounts received by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or any sublease to fail to qualify as “rents from real property” within the meaning of Section 856(d) of the Code, or which could cause any other income received by Landlord to fail to qualify as income described in Section 856(c)(2) of the Code.

12.9 Affiliates. The assignment or subletting by Tenant of all or any portion of this Lease or the Premises to (i) a parent or subsidiary of Tenant, or (ii) any person or entity which controls, is controlled by or under the common control with Tenant, or (iii) any entity which purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, or (iv) any entity into which Tenant is merged or consolidated (all such persons or entities described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) being sometimes herein referred to as “Affiliates”) shall not be subject to obtaining Landlord’s prior consent and no Transfer Premium shall be payable, provided in all instances that:

(a) any such Affiliate was not formed as a subterfuge to avoid the obligations of this Article 12:

(b) Tenant gives Landlord prior notice of any such assignment or sublease to an Affiliate, except solely for those assignments or subleases in connection with which any applicable law precludes Tenant’s delivery to Landlord of prior notice of said assignment or sublease then, in all such instances, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord subsequent notice of said assignment or sublease within ten (10) days following the first (1st) day on which Tenant is permitted by law to deliver notice of such assignment or sublease to Landlord;

(c) the successor of Tenant shall have throughout the Term a tangible net worth and net assets, in the aggregate, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (but excluding goodwill as an asset), which is sufficient to meet the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, as reasonably determined by Landlord:

(d) any such assignment or sublease shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, and such assignee or sublessee (i.e. any such Affiliate), other than in the case of an Affiliate resulting from a merger or consolidation, shall assume, in a written document reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and delivered to Landlord upon or prior to the effective date of such assignment or sublease, all the obligations of Tenant under this Lease; and

 

11


(e) Tenant and any guarantor shall remain fully liable for all obligations to be performed by Tenant under this Lease.

13. Default; Remedies.

13.1 Default. The occurrence of any one of the following events shall constitute an event of default on the part of Tenant (“Default”):

(a) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant;

(b) Failure to pay any installment of Base Rent, Additional Rent, or any other monies due and payable hereunder, said failure continuing for a period of five (5) days after Landlord’s delivery of written notice to Tenant that said payment is past due. Tenant agrees that any such written notice delivered by Landlord shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law. serve as the statutorily required notice under applicable law to the extent Tenant fails to cure such failure to pay within such five (5) day period. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant agrees to notice and service of notice as provided for in accordance with applicable statutory requirements;

(c) A general assignment by Tenant for the benefit of creditors;

(d) The filing of a voluntary petition of bankruptcy by Tenant; the filing of a voluntary petition for an arrangement; the filing of a petition, voluntary or involuntary, for reorganization; or the filing of an involuntary petition by Tenant’s creditors;

(e) Receivership, attachment, or other judicial seizure of the Premises or all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets on the Premises;

(f) Failure of Tenant to maintain insurance as required by Paragraph 8.2;

(g) Any breach by Tenant of its covenants under Paragraph 6.2;

(h) Failure in the performance of any of Tenant’s covenants, agreements, or obligations hereunder (except those failures specified as events of Default in other Paragraphs of this Paragraph 13.1 which shall be governed by such other Paragraphs), which failure continues for 10 days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that, if Tenant has exercised reasonable diligence to cure such failure and such failure cannot be cured within such 10-day period despite reasonable diligence. Tenant shall not be in default under this subparagraph unless Tenant fails thereafter diligently and continuously to prosecute the cure to completion; and

(i) Except as set forth in Paragraph 12.9, any transfer of a substantial portion of the assets of Tenant, unless such transfer or obligation is undertaken or incurred in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business, or in good faith for equivalent consideration, or with Landlord’s consent.

 

13.2 Remedies. In the event of any Default by Tenant, Landlord shall have any or all of the following remedies:

(a) Termination. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord shall have the immediate option to terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice of such intention to terminate. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease then Landlord may recover from Tenant:

(1) the worth at the time of award of any unpaid Rent and any other sums due and payable which have been earned at the time of such termination; plus

(2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and any other sums due and payable which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and any other sums due and payable for the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus

(4) 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 would be likely to result therefrom, including, without limitation, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord (i) in retaking possession of the Premises; (ii) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, the Premises or any portion thereof, including such acts for reletting to a new lessee or lessees; (iii) for leasing commissions; or (iv) for any other costs reasonably necessary or reasonably appropriate to relet the Premises; plus

(5) such reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default, and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy; and plus

 

12


(6) at Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law. As used in subparagraphs (1) and (2) above, the “worth at the lime of award” is computed by allowing interest at an annual rate equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. As used in subparagraph (3) 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 (I %). Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any other present or future law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any Default of Tenant hereunder.

(b) Continuation of Lease. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s Default and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, provided tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations).

(c) Re-entry. In the event of any Default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, in compliance with applicable law, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant.

(d) Reletting. In the event of the abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or in the event that Landlord shall elect to re-enter or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Paragraph a. Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relet, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied in the following order: (1) to reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedies; (2) to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (3) to the payment of any costs of such reletting; (4) to the payment of the costs of any alterations and repairs to the Premises: (5) to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and (6) the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent and other sums payable by Tenant hereunder as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder, be less than the Rent payable during the month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting; provided, Tenant shall not be obligated to Landlord for any such costs attributable to the removal (or repair following removal) of the Initial Tenant Improvements described in Exhibit F.

(e) Termination. No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Addendum shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of any Default by Tenant, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such Default.

(f) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies herein provided are not exclusive and Landlord shall have any and all other remedies provided herein or by law or in equity.

(g) No Surrender. No act or conduct of Landlord, whether consisting of the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be or constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term, and such acceptance by Landlord of surrender by Tenant shall only flow from and must be evidenced by a written acknowledgment of acceptance of surrender signed by Landlord. The surrender of this Lease by Tenant, voluntarily or otherwise, shall not work a merger unless Landlord elects in writing that such merger take place, but shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and all existing subleases, or Landlord may, at its option, elect in writing to treat such surrender as a merger terminating Tenant’s estate under this Lease, and thereupon Landlord may terminate any or all such subleases by notifying the sublessee of its election so to do within five (5) days after such surrender.

(h) Notice Provisions Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 13.1 of the Lease shall satisfy the requirements for notice under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, and Landlord shall not be required to give any additional notice in order to be entitled to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding. Should Landlord prepare any notice to Tenant for failure to pay rent, additional rent or perform any other obligation under the Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, without any further notice from Landlord, the additional sum of $75.00 which the parties hereby agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of preparing such notice.

13.3 Late Charges. Tenant hereby acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of Rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges. Accordingly, if any installment of Rent or other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee within 4 days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to 5% of such overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge

 

13


represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of such late charge by Landlord shall in no event constitute a waiver of Tenant’s Default with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In addition, should Landlord be unable to negotiate any payment made by Tenant on the first attempt by Landlord and without any notice to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a fee of $50.00 per item which the parties hereby agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Landlord will incur by reason of Landlord’s inability to negotiate such item(s).

14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of exercise of said power (all of which are herein called “condemnation”), this Lease shall terminate as to the part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than 10% of the floor area of the Premises, or more than 25% of the portion of the Common Areas designated for Tenant’s parking, is taken by condemnation, Tenant may, at Tenant’s option, to be exercised in writing within 10 days after Landlord shall have given Tenant written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within 10 days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession), terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Tenant does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the Base Rent shall be reduced in the same proportion as the rentable floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable floor area of the Premises. No reduction of Base Rent shall occur if the condemnation does not apply to any portion of the Premises. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat of the exercise of such power shall be the property of Landlord; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to any compensation, separately awarded to Tenant, for Tenant’s relocation expenses and/or loss of Tenant’s trade fixtures. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Landlord shall to the extent of its net severance damages in the condemnation matter, repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation authority. Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any amount in excess of such net severance damages required to complete such repair.

15. Estoppel Certificate and Financial Statements.

15.1 Estoppel Certificate. Each party (herein referred to as “Responding Party’”) shall within 10 business days after written notice from the other Party (the “Requesting Party”) execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the Requesting Party, to the extent it can truthfully do so. an estoppel certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to the Responding Party, or any of Landlord’s lenders or any prospective purchasers of the Premises or the Industrial Center as the case may be, plus such additional information, confirmation, and statements as be reasonably requested by the Requesting Party.

15.2 Financial Statement. If Landlord desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Building, Industrial Center, or any part thereof, Tenant shall deliver to any potential lender or purchaser designated by Landlord such financial statements of Tenant as are prepared by Tenant in the ordinary course of business, including hut not limited to Tenant’s financial statements for the past 3 years (if then available). All such financial statements shall be received by Landlord and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth. Landlord agrees to execute and Landlord shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause Landlord’s lender or purchaser to execute a non-disclosure agreement reasonably acceptable to such parties related to such financial statements of Tenant.

16. Additional Covenants and Provisions.

16.1 Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not affect the validity of any other provision hereof.

16.2 Interest on Past-Due Obligations. Any monetary payment due Landlord hereunder not received by Landlord within 10 days following the date on which it was due shall bear interest from the date due at 12% per annum, but not exceeding the maximum rate allowed by law in addition to the late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.3.

16.3 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this Lease.

16.4 Landlord Liability. Tenant, its successors, and assigns shall not assert nor seek to enforce any claim for breach of this Lease against any of Landlord’s assets other than Landlord’s interest in the Industrial Center. Tenant agrees to look solely to such interest for the satisfaction of any liability or claim against Landlord under this Lease. In no event whatsoever shall Landlord (which term shall include, without limitation, any general or limited partner, trustees, beneficiaries, officers, directors, or stockholders of Landlord) ever be personally liable for any such liability.

16.5 Entire Agreement. It is understood and acknowledged that there are no oral agreements between the parties hereto affecting this Lease and this Lease supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, brochures, agreements and understandings, if any, between the parties hereto or displayed by Landlord to Tenant with respect to the subject matter thereof, and none thereof shall be used to interpret or construe this Lease. This Lease and any side letter or separate agreement executed by Landlord and Tenant in connection with this Lease and dated of even date herewith contain all of the terms, covenants, conditions, warranties and agreements of the parties relating in any manner to the rental, use and occupancy of the Premises, shall be considered to be the only agreement between the parties hereto and their representatives and agents, and none of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease can be modified, deleted or added to except in writing signed by the parties hereto. All negotiations and oral agreements acceptable to both parties have been merged into and are included herein. There are no other representations or warranties between the parties, and all reliance with respect to representations is based totally upon the representations

 

14


and agreements contained in this Lease. The parties acknowledge that (i) each party and/or its counsel have reviewed and revised this Lease, and (ii) no rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall be employed in the interpretation or enforcement of this Lease or any amendments or exhibits to this Lease or any document executed and delivered by either party in connection with this Lease.

16.6 Notice Requirements. All notices required or permitted by this Lease shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand, messenger, or courier service) or may be sent by regular, certified, or registered mail or U.S. Postal Service Express Mail, with postage prepaid, or by facsimile transmission during normal business hours, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if served in a manner specified in this Paragraph 16.6. The addresses noted adjacent to a Party’s signature on this Lease shall be that Party’s address for delivery or mailing of notice purposes. Either Party may by written notice to the other specify a different address for notice purposes, except that upon Tenant’s taking possessing of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Tenant’s address for the purpose of mailing or delivering notices to Tenant. A copy of all notices required or permitted to be given to Landlord hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as Landlord may from time to time hereafter designate by written notice to Tenant.

16.7 Date of Notice. Any notice sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If sent by regular mail, the notice shall be deemed given 48 hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or an overnight courier that guarantees next day delivery shall be deemed given 24 hours after delivery of the same to the United States Postal Service or courier. If any notice is transmitted by facsimile transmission or similar means, the same shall be deemed served or delivered upon telephone or facsimile confirmation of receipt of the transmission thereof, provided a copy is also delivered via hand or overnight delivery or certified mail. If notice is received on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, it shall be deemed received on the next business day.

16.8 Waivers. No waiver by Landlord of a Default by Tenant shall be deemed a waiver of any other term, covenant, or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default by Tenant of the same or any other term, covenant, or condition hereof. In addition the acceptance by Landlord of any rent or other payment after it is due, whether or not a notice of default has been served or any action (including, without limitation, an unlawful detainer action) has been filed by Landlord thereon, shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s rights to proceed on any notice of default or action which has been filed against Tenant based upon Tenant’s breach of the Lease.

16.9 Holdover. Tenant has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Tenant holds over with the consent of Landlord: (a) the Base Rent payable shall be increased to 150% of the Base Rent applicable during the month immediately preceding such expiration or earlier termination; (b) Tenant’s right to possession shall terminate on 30 days notice from Landlord; and (c) all other terms and conditions of this Lease shall continue to apply. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, losses, damages, obligations, costs, and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees incurred or suffered by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s failure to surrender the Premises on the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Lease.

16.10 Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies in law or in equity.

16.11 Binding Effect: Choice of Law. This Lease shall be binding upon the Parties, their personal representatives, successors, and assigns, and be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located. Any litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be initiated in the county in which the Premises are located.

16.12 Landlord. The covenants and obligations contained in this Lease on the part of Landlord are binding on Landlord, its successors, and assigns only during their respective period of ownership of an interest in the Building. In the event of any transfer or transfers of such title to the Building, Landlord (and, in the case of any subsequent transfers or conveyances, the then grantor) shall be concurrently freed and relieved from and after the date of such transfer or conveyance, without any further instrument or agreement, of all liability with respect to the performance of any covenants or obligations on the part of Landlord contained in this Lease thereafter to be performed.

16.13 Attorneys’ Fees and Other Costs. If any Party brings an action or proceeding to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys” fees. The term “Prevailing Party’” shall include, without limitation, a Party who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought. Landlord shall be entitled to attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of Default (as defined in this Lease) and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default or resulting breach. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord on demand for all reasonable legal, engineering, and other professional services expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with all requests by Tenant or any lender of Tenant for consent, waiver or approval of any kind.

16.14 Landlord’s Access; Showing Premises; Repairs. Landlord and Landlord’s agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times upon reasonable notice for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or tenants, and making such alterations, repairs, improvements, or additions to the Premises or to the Building, as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary, provided, in no event shall Tenant be obligated to disclose or provide access to Tenant’s proprietary or confidential information in

 

15


connection with such inspections. Landlord may at any time place on or about the Premises or Building any ordinary “For Sale” signs, and Landlord may at any time during the last 180 days of the term hereof place on or about the Premises any ordinary “For Lease” signs. All such activities of Landlord shall be without abatement of rent or liability to Tenant.

16.15 Signs. Tenant shall not place any signs at or upon the exterior of the Premises or the Building, except that Tenant may, with Landlord’s prior written consent, install (but not on the roof) such signs as are similar to the signs of other tenants at the Industrial Center so long as such signs are in a location designated by Landlord and comply with sign ordinances and the signage criteria established for the Industrial Center by Landlord.

16.16 Termination; Merger. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by Landlord, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, the mutual termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Landlord for Default by Tenant, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate in the Premises; provided, however, Landlord shall, in the event of any such surrender, termination, or cancellation, have the option to continue any one or all of any existing subtenancies.

This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or other hypothecation or mortgage (collectively, “Mortgage”) now or hereafter placed by Landlord upon the real property of which the Premises are a part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, and extensions thereof. Tenant agrees that any person holding any Mortgage shall have no duty, liability, or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Landlord under this Lease. In the event of Landlord’s default with respect to any such obligation, Tenant will give any Lender, whose name and address have previously been furnished in writing to Tenant, notice of a default by Landlord. Tenant may not exercise any remedies for default by Landlord unless and until Landlord and the Lender shall have received written notice of such default and a reasonable time (not less than 90 days) shall thereafter have elapsed without the default having been cured. If any Lender shall elect to have this Lease superior to the lien of its Mortgage and shall give written notice thereof to Tenant, this Lease shall be deemed prior to such Mortgage. The provisions of a Mortgage relating to the disposition of condemnation and insurance proceeds shall prevail over any contrary provisions contained in this Lease.

(b) Attornment. Subject to the nondisturbance provisions of subparagraph (c) of this Paragraph 16.18, Tenant agrees to attorn to a Lender or any other party who acquires ownership of the Premises by reason of a foreclosure of a Mortgage. In the event of such foreclosure, such new owner shall not: (i) be liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership, (ii) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior Landlord, or (iii) be liable for security deposits or be bound by prepayment of more than one month’s rent.

(c) Non-Disturbance. With respect to a Mortgage entered into by Landlord after the execution of this Lease, Tenant’s subordination of this Lease shall be subject to receiving assurance (a “nondisturbance agreement”) from the Mortgage holder that Tenant’s possession and this Lease will not be disturbed so long as Tenant is not in default and attorns to the record owner of the Premises.

(d) Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 16.18 shall be effective without the execution of any further documents; provided, however, that upon written request from Landlord or a Lender in connection with a sale, financing, or refinancing of Premises, Tenant and Landlord shall execute such further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document any such subordination or nonsubordination, attornment, and/or nondisturbance agreement, as is provided for herein. Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power to subordinate this Lease to a Mortgage.

16.19 Rules and Regulations. Tenant agrees that it will abide by, and to cause its employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, tenants, contractors, and invitees to abide by, all reasonable rules and regulations (“Rules and Regulations”) which Landlord may make from time to time for the management, safety, care, and cleanliness of the Common Areas, the parking and unloading of vehicles, and the preservation of good order, as well as for the convenience of other occupants or tenants of the Building and the Industrial Center and their invitees. The current Rules and Regulations are attached hereto as Exhibit E. Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the noncompliance with said Rules and Regulations by other tenants of the Industrial Center.

16.20 Security Measures. Tenant acknowledges that the rental payable to Landlord hereunder does not include the cost of guard service or other security measures. Landlord has no obligations to provide same. Tenant assumes all responsibility for the protection of the Premises, Tenant, its agents, and invitees and their property from the acts of third parties.

16.21 Reservations. Landlord reserves the right to grant such easements that Landlord deems necessary and to cause the recordation of parcel maps, so long as such easements and maps do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Tenant. Tenant agrees to sign any documents reasonably requested by Landlord to effectuate any

 

16


such easements or maps. Tenant further agrees that Landlord may at any time following the execution of this Lease, either directly or through Landlord’s agents, identify Tenant’s name in any marketing materials relating to the Building or Landlord’s portfolio and/or make press releases or other announcements regarding the leasing of the Premises by Tenant, and Tenant hereby waives any and all claims in connection therewith.

16.22 Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this Lease and the typewritten or handwritten provisions shall be controlled by the typewritten or handwritten provisions.

16.23 Offer. Preparation of this Lease by either Landlord or Tenant or Landlord’s agent or Tenant’s agent and submission of same to Tenant or Landlord shall not be deemed an offer to lease. This Lease is not intended to be binding until executed and delivered by all Parties hereto.

16.24 Amendments. This Lease may be modified only in writing, signed by the parties in interest at the time of the modification.

16.25 Multiple Parties. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if more than one person or entity is named herein as Tenant, the obligations of such persons shall be the joint and several responsibility of all persons or entities named herein as such Tenant.

Tenant hereby agrees that such Renovations and Landlord’s actions in connection with such Renovations shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent. 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 the Renovations, 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 Property, Alterations or improvements resulting from the Renovations or Landlord’s actions in connection with such Renovations, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such Renovations or Landlord’s actions in connection with such Renovations.

Landlord and Tenant agree that the Lease is hereby modified and supplemented as follows:

1. Option Term Tenant Improvements. Subject to the conditions set forth below, in the event Tenant exercises the Option described in Addendum 1, during the Extended Term, Landlord agrees to construct and install certain improvements (“Option Term Tenant Improvements”) in the Building of which the Premises are a part in accordance with the Approved Final Drawings (defined below) and pursuant to the terms of this Exhibit G.

2.

3. Tenant’s Initial Plans; the Work. Subject to Section 1 above, Tenant desires Landlord to perform certain Option Term Tenant Improvements in the Premises. The Option Term Tenant Improvements shall be in substantial accordance with a plan(s) and scope of work (collectively, the “Initial Plans”) which will be prepared by an Architect mutually agreeable to both Landlord and Tenant, after the parties meet and confer to agree upon a scope of work. Within fifteen (15) business days from the date Landlord and Tenant meet to discuss the scope of work, Landlord shall endeavor to deliver to Tenant the Initial Plans. A copy of the Initial Plans shall be executed or initialed by each of the parties, as soon as practicable thereafter. Such work, as shown in the Initial Plans and as more fully detailed in the Approved Final Drawings (as defined and described in Section 4 below), shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Work”. Not later than five (5) days after the Initial Plans are prepared and delivered to Tenant, Tenant or Tenant’s Entities shall furnish to Landlord such additional plans, drawings, specifications and finish details as Landlord may reasonably request to enable Landlord’s architects and engineers, as applicable, to prepare mechanical, electrical and plumbing plans and to prepare the Final Drawings, including, but not limited to, a final telephone layout and special electrical connections, if any. All plans, drawings, specifications and other details describing the Work which have been, or are hereafter, furnished by or on behalf of Tenant shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Landlord shall not be deemed to have acted unreasonably if it withholds its approval of any plans, specifications, drawings or other details or of any Change Request (hereafter defined in Section 11 below) because, in Landlord’s reasonable opinion, the work as described in any such item, or any Change Request, as the case may be: (a) is likely to adversely affect Building systems, the structure of the Building or the safety of the Building or its occupants; (b) might impair Landlord’s ability to furnish services to Tenant or other tenants in the Building; (c) would increase the cost of operating the Building or the Industrial Center; (d) would violate any Applicable Requirements; (e) contains or uses Hazardous Substances; (f) would adversely affect the appearance of the Building or the Industrial Center; (g) might adversely affect another tenant’s premises or such other tenant’s use and enjoyment of such premises; (h) is prohibited by any ground lease affecting the Building and/or the Industrial Center, any recorded matters or any mortgage, trust deed or other instrument encumbering the Building and/or the Industrial Center; (i) is likely to be substantially delayed because of unavailability or shortage of labor or materials necessary to perform such work or the difficulties or unusual nature of such work; (j) is not, at a minimum, in accordance with Landlord’s Building Standards (defined below); or (k) would increase the Option Term Tenant Improvement Costs (defined in Section 9 below) by more than twenty percent (20%) from the cost originally estimated and anticipated by the parties. The foregoing reasons, however, shall not be the only reasons for which Landlord may withhold its approval, whether or not such other reasons are similar or dissimilar to the foregoing. Neither the approval by Landlord of the Work or the Initial Plans or any other plans, specifications, drawings or other items associated with the Work nor Landlord’s performance. supervision or monitoring of the Work shall constitute any warranty or covenant by Landlord to Tenant of the adequacy of the design for Tenant’s intended use of the Premises.

Tenant shall cooperate diligently with Landlord and the architect, engineer and other representatives and Tenant shall furnish within five (5) days after any request therefor, all information required by Landlord or Landlord’s architect, engineer or other representatives for completion of the Final Drawings.

2. Tenant’s Option Notice. Tenant shall have the right to deliver written notice to Landlord of its intent to exercise this Option (the “Option Notice”). If Landlord does not receive the Option Notice from Tenant on a date which is not less than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the end of the initial Term of the Lease, all rights under this Option shall automatically terminate and shall be of no further force or effect. Upon the proper exercise of this Option, subject to the provisions, limitations and conditions set forth in Paragraph 5 below, the initial Term of the Lease shall be extended for the Extended Term.

3. Monthly Base Rent for the Extended Term; Tenant Improvement Allowance.

(a) The monthly Base Rent for the Premises for the first (1st) year of the Extended Term shall be Thirty One Thousand One Hundred Seventy Three and 80/100 Dollars ($31,173.80) and such Base Rent shall increase annually during the Extended Term by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Base Rent paid during the immediately preceding annual period.

(b) Subject to the terms of Exhibit G to this Lease, the Option Term Tenant Improvement Allowance may be partially or wholly utilized by Tenant during the Extended Term.

(c) Tenant shall have no other right to extend the Term of the Lease under this Addendum unless Landlord and Tenant otherwise agree in writing.

4. Condition of Premises for the Extended Term. If Tenant timely and properly exercises this Option, in strict accordance with the terms contained herein, Tenant shall accept the Premises in its then “As-Is” condition and, accordingly, Landlord shall not be required to perform any additional improvements to the Premises. Tenant shall not be responsible for brokerage commissions payable to a broker procured or hired by Tenant in connection with the Option if Landlord has agreed to pay such commission.

5. Limitations On, and Conditions To, Extension Option. This Option is personal to Tenant and may not be assigned, voluntarily or involuntarily, separate from or as part of the Lease. At Landlord’s option, all rights of Tenant under this Option shall terminate and be of no force or effect if any of the following individual events occur or any combination thereof occur: (1) Tenant has been in default at any time during the initial Term of the Lease, or is in default of any provision of the Lease on the date Landlord receives the Option Notice; and/or (2) Tenant has assigned its rights and obligations under all or part of the Lease or Tenant has subleased all or part of the Premises; and/or (3) Tenant’s financial condition is unacceptable to Landlord at the time the Option Notice is delivered to Landlord; and/or (4) Tenant has failed to exercise properly this Option in a timely manner in strict accordance with the provisions of this Addendum; and/or (5) Tenant no longer has possession of all or any part of the Premises under the Lease, or if the Lease has been terminated earlier, pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Lease.
