Unless otherwise provided herein, any statement of size set forth in this Sublease, or that may have been used in calculating Rent, is an approximation which the Parties agree is reasonable and any payments based thereon are not subject to revision whether or not the actual size is more or less.

Sublessee does not give Sublessor the required notice within the appropriate warranty period, correction of any such non-compliance, malfunction or failure shall be the obligation of Sublessee at Sublessee’s sole cost and expense.
          2.3 Compliance. Sublessor warrants that any improvements, alterations or utility installations made or installed by or on behalf of Sublessor to or on the Premises comply with all applicable covenants or restrictions of record and applicable building codes, regulations and ordinances (“Applicable Requirements”) in effect on the date that they were made or installed. Sublessor makes no warranty as to the use to which Sublessee will put the Premises or to modifications which may be required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any similar laws as a result of Sublessee’s use. NOTE: Sublessee is responsible for determining whether or not the zoning and other Applicable Requirements are appropriate for Sublessee’s intended use, and acknowledges that past uses of the Premises may no longer be allowed. If the Premises do not comply with said warranty, Sublessor shall, except as otherwise provided, promptly after receipt of written notice from Sublessee setting forth with specificity the nature and extent of such non-compliance, rectify the same. If the Applicable Requirements are hereafter changed so as to require during the term of this Sublease the construction of an addition to or an alteration of the Building, the remediation of any Hazardous Substance, or the reinforcement of other physical modification of the Building (“Capital Expenditure”), Sublessor and Sublessee shall allocate the cost of such work as follows:
               (a) If such Capital Expenditures are required as a result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Sublessee as compared with uses by tenants in general, Sublessee shall be fully responsible for the cost thereof, provided, however that if such Capital Expenditure is required during the last two years of this Sublease and the cost thereof exceeds 6 months’ Base Rent, Sublessee may instead terminate this Sublease unless Sublessor notifies Sublessee in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Sublessee’s termination notice that Sublessor has elected to pay the difference between the actual cost thereof and the amount equal to 6 months’ Base Rent. If the Parties elect termination, Sublessee hall immediately cease the use of the Premises which requires such Capital Expenditure and deliver to Sublessor written notice specifying a termination date at least 90 days thereafter. Such termination date shall, however, in no event be earlier then the last day that Sublessee could legally utilize the Premises without commencing such Capital Expenditure.
               (b) If such Capital Expenditure is not the result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Sublessee (such as governmentally mandated seismic modifications, then Sublessor shall pay for said Capital Expenditure and the cost thereof shall be prorated between the Sublessor and Sublessee and Sublessee shall only be obligated to pay, each month during the remainder of the term of this Sublease, on the date on which Rent is due, an amount equal to 1/144th the cost of such Capital Expenditure. Sublessee shall pay interest on the unamortized balance at a rate that is then commercially reasonable in the judgment of Sublessor’s accountant. Sublessee may, however, prepay its obligation at any time. Provided, however, that if such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Sublease or if Sublessor reasonably determines that it is not economically feasible to pay its share thereof, Sublessor shall have the option to terminate this Sublease upon 90 days prior written notice to Sublessee unless Sublessee notifies Sublessor, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Sublessor’s termination notice that Sublessee will pay for such Capital Expenditure. If Sublessor does not elect to terminate, and fails to tender its share of any such Capital Expenditure, Sublessee may advance such funds and deduct same, with interest, from Rent until Sublessor’s share of such costs have been fully paid. If Sublessee is unable to finance Sublessor’s share, or if the balance of the Rent due and payable for the remainder of this Sublease is not sufficient to fully reimburse Sublessee on an offset basis, Sublessee shall have the right to terminate this Sublease upon 10 days written notice to Sublessor.
               (c) Notwithstanding the above, the provisions concerning Capital Expenditures are intended to apply only to non-voluntary, unexpected, and new Applicable Requirements. If the Capital Expenditures are instead triggered by Sublessee as a result of an actual or proposed change in use, change in intensity of use, or modification to the Premises the, and in that event, Sublessee shall be fully responsible for the cost thereof, and Sublessee shall not have any right to terminate this Sublease.
          2.4 Acknowledgements. Sublessee acknowledges that: (a) it has been advised by Sublessor and/or Brokers to satisfy itself with respect to the condition of the Premises (including but not limited to the electrical, HVAC and fire sprinkler systems, security, environmental aspects, and compliance with Applicable Requirements and the Americans with Disabilities Act), and their suitability for Sublessee’s intended use, (b) Sublessee has made such investigation as it deems necessary with reference to such matters and assumes all responsibility therefor as the same relate to its occupancy of the Premises, and (c) neither Sublessor, Sublessor’s agents, nor Brokers have made any oral or written representations or warranties with respect to said matters other than as set forth in this Sublease. In addition, Sublessor acknowledges that: (i) Brokers have made no representations, promises or warranties concerning Sublessee’s ability to honor the Sublease or suitability to occupy the Premises, and (ii) it is Sublessor’s sole responsibility to investigate the financial capability and/or suitability of all proposed tenants.
          2.5 Americans with Disabilities Act. In the event that as a result of Sublessee’s use, or intended use, of the Premises the American’s with Disabilities Act or any similar law requires modifications or the construction or installation of improvements in or to the Premises, Building, Project and/or Common Areas, the Parties agree that such modifications, construction or improvements shall be made at: Sublessor’s expense Sublessee’s expense.
3. Possession.
          3.1 Early Possession. If Sublessee totally or partially occupies the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the obligation to pay Base Rent shall be abated for the period of such early possession. All other terms of this Sublease (including but not limited to the obligations to pay Sublessee’s Share of Common Area Operating Expenses, Real Property Taxes and insurance premiums and to maintain the Premises) shall, however, be in effect during such period. Any such early possession shall not affect the Expiration Date.
          3.2 Delay in Commencement. Sublessor agrees to use its best commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Premises by the Commencement Date. If, despite said efforts, Sublessor is unable to deliver possession as agreed, Sublessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Sublease. Sublessee shall not, however, be obligated to pay Rent or perform its other obligations until it receives possession of the Premises. If possession is not delivered within

60 days after the commencement date, Sublessee may, at its option, by notice in writing within 10 days after the end of such 60 day period, cancel this Sublease, in which event the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations hereunder. Except at otherwise provided, if possession is not tendered to Sublessee when required and Sublessee does not terminate this Sublease, as aforesaid, any period of rent abatement that Sublessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date of delivery of possession and continue for a period equal to what Sublessee would otherwise have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the acts or omissions of Sublessee. If possession is not delivered within 120 days after the commencement date, this Sublease shall automatically terminate unless the Parties agree, in writing, to the contrary.
          3.3 Sublessee Compliance. Sublessor shall not be required to tender possession of the Premises to Sublessee until Sublessee complies with its obligation to provide evidence of insurance. Pending delivery of such evidence, Sublessee shall be required to perform all of its obligations under this Sublease from and after the Start Date, including the payment of Rent, notwithstanding Sublessor’s election to withhold possession pending receipt of such evidence of insurance. Further, if Sublessee is required to perform any other conditions prior to or concurrent with the Start Date, the Start Date shall occur but Sublessor may elect to withhold possession until such conditions are satisfied.
4. Rent and Other Charges.
          4.1 Rent Defined. All monetary obligations of Sublessee to Sublessor under the terms of this Sublease (except for the Security Deposit) are deemed to be rent (“Rent”).

          4.2 Utilities. Sublessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, trash disposal and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon.
5. Security Deposit. Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor the sum specified in Paragraph 1.6(b) as security for Sublessee’s faithful performance of Sublessee’s obligations hereunder. If Sublessee fails to pay Rent or other charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of any Rent or other charge in default or for the payment of any other sum to which Sublessor may become obligated by reason of Sublessee’s default, or to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which Sublessor may suffer thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any, portion of said deposit, Sublessee shall within 10 days after written demand therefore forward to Sublessor an amount sufficient to restore said Deposit to the full amount provided for herein and Sublessee’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Sublease. Sublessor shall not be required to keep said Deposit separate from its general accounts. If Sublessee performs all of Sublessee’s obligations hereunder, said Deposit, or so much thereof as not therefore been applied by Sublessor, shall be returned, without payment of interest to Sublessee (or at Sublessor’s option, to the last assignee, if any, of Sublessee’s interest hereunder) at the expiration of the term hereof, and after Sublessee has vacated the Premises.
