Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of any Default under this Lease, Tenant may introduce evidence in any proceeding and/or take discovery on the issue of whether the Minimum Rent in later years is higher than what such Minimum Rent would have been in the absence of the Abated Minimum Rent, with regard to the issue of whether there is an excess recovery by Landlord.

Section 1.02. Definitions. In addition to the definitions set forth in Section 1.01, above, the following additional defined terms shall apply to the interpretation of this Lease.
A. Additional Rent: All sums payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Lease, other than Minimum Rent.
B. Building Hours: 7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. on each Business Day during the Term.
C. Business Day: Monday through Friday other than holidays observed by the United States Federal Government.
D. Commercial Portion: All portions of the Project (including the Building), other than the Residential Portion.
E. Common Areas: (i) Any existing or future improvements, equipment, areas and/or spaces located within the area designated as “Common Areas” on Exhibit A hereto which are for the non-exclusive, common and joint use or benefit of Landlord, Tenant and other tenants, occupants and users of the Project, as determined by Landlord, (ii) the Parking Garage (other than the Locker Room and Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) and (iii) the Lot 7 Parking Garage. The Common Areas include, without limitation, sidewalks, roofs, gutters and downspouts, patio areas, landscaped areas, and parking areas, drive aisles, and the parking islands within the Parking Garage and/or Lot 7 Parking Garage.
F. Floor Area: When used with respect to the Leased Premises, the number of square feet set forth in Section 1.01.A, above, subject to adjustment as provided herein, which the Leased Premises shall be deemed to contain. The Floor Area of the Leased Premises was calculated by Landlord’s architect based on the Building Plans (as defined in Exhibit B) in accordance with the 2009 Office Standard ANSI/BOMA Z65.3-2009 for Measuring Gross Building Area for a single tenant building (i.e., the area computed by measuring to the outside finished surface of permanent outer building walls, without deductions) as modified as follows: (i) the Floor Area of the Building shall include covered balconies and terraces measured to the outer-most face of the Building element above such balcony or terrace (i.e., a “dripline” measurement); (ii) any portions of the Building used exclusively by the retail portions of the Project (e.g., penetrations for the two east side elevators) shall not be included in the calculation of the Floor Area of the Building; and (iii) neither the Locker Room nor the Exclusive Elevator Lobbies will be included in the calculation of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises. Tenant will have the right, at its cost, to do its own survey of the as-built Floor Area of the Building in accordance with the foregoing standard within one hundred twenty (120) days after Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work. If such survey shows that the actual as-
3
constructed Floor Area deviates from the Floor Area set forth in Section 1.01A above by more than one percent (1%), then Tenant may notify Landlord in writing within such one hundred twenty (120) day period (which Notice shall include a copy of Tenant’s survey). In the event that Landlord and Tenant cannot agree upon the final Floor Area of the Leased Premises within thirty (30) days of Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s survey, then the parties agree to the following method of resolving the dispute: (a) Landlord and Tenant shall select a non-interested third party architect (hereinafter referred to as the “Architect”), whose determination as to the square footage of the Leased Premises (which shall be calculated in accordance with the standard set forth above) shall be binding on the parties; and (b) the parties shall share, equally, the cost of such Architect, except that in the event the Architect agrees with one of the parties as to the square footage of the Leased Premises (within one hundred (100) square feet of such party’s measurement of the Floor Area), the other party shall bear the full cost of the Architect. If the final determination of the Floor Area differs from that set forth in Section 1.01.A. by more than one percent (1%), then Monthly Minimum Rent as well as all charges payable under this Lease which are based on the Floor Area of the Leased Premises, the Tenant Work Allowance (as defined in Exhibit B) and the maximum amount of Abated Minimum Rent shall be adjusted in accordance with the new measurement of the Floor Area and Landlord and Tenant shall promptly execute an amendment to this Lease setting forth the Floor Area and the adjusted Rent, Tenant Work Allowance and maximum Abated Minimum Rent. If Tenant fails to complete such survey within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, then the Floor Area set forth in Section 1.01.A, above, shall be deemed accurate and accepted by Tenant. When used with respect to any other space in the Project, Floor Area shall mean the number of square feet of such space as reasonably determined by Landlord in accordance with the practices of similar first class institutional landlords of mixed-use projects such as the Project.
G. Interest: A rate per annum of the lesser of (i) seven percent (7%) or (ii) the maximum permitted by law.
H. Lease Year: Each twelve (12) month period beginning with the Term Commencement Date, and each anniversary thereof, if the Term Commencement Date occurs on the first day of a month. If the Term Commencement Date occurs on a day other than the first day of a month, then the first Lease Year shall begin on the Term Commencement Date and shall terminate on the last day of the twelfth (12th) full calendar month after the Term Commencement Date. Each subsequent Lease Year shall commence on the date immediately following the last day of the preceding Lease Year and shall continue for a period of twelve (12) full calendar months, except that the last Lease Year of the Term shall terminate on the date this Lease expires or is otherwise terminated.
I. Operating Year: Each calendar year or part thereof during the Term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, or at Landlord’s option, any other twelve (12) month period or part thereof designated by Landlord.
J. Partial Lease Year: Any period during the Term which is less than a full Lease Year.
K. Person: Any individual, firm, partnership, association, corporation, limited liability company, or any other legal entity.
L. Project: That certain mixed-use project known as Santana Row located in San Jose, California.
M. Rent: Minimum Rent plus Additional Rent.
N. Residential Portion: Those portions of the Project adjacent to and/or above certain portions of the Commercial Portion of the Project used for residential purposes. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the Residential Portion is controlled separately from the Commercial Portion and, for purposes of this Lease, shall not be deemed to be a part of the Commercial Portion.
O. Tenant’s Share: A proportion determined as follows: (a) with respect to the calculation of Operating Costs (including Insurance Costs, as defined below) for the Building, except as provided in Section 6.03 with respect to Cost Pools or otherwise provided in this Lease a fraction, the numerator of which is the Floor Area of the Building and the denominator of which is the total Floor Area of the Building (i.e., one hundred percent (100%)); (b) with respect to the cost of maintaining the components of the Condenser Water System (as defined in Section 7.01.C below), subject to the exclusions set forth in Article VI, Tenant’s Share shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is Tenant’s total usage of condenser water from the Condenser Water System and the denominator of which is the usage of condenser water of all occupants of the Project that use the Condenser Water System, in each case as measured by the applicable flow meters; (c) with respect to the cost of providing the services described in Sections 7.01.E and 7.01.F to the Parking Garage and the cost of cleaning, sweeping, trash removal, resurfacing and restriping of or in the Parking Garage and other general upkeep of the Parking Garage, Tenant’s Operating Cost Share shall be sixty-five percent (65%); and (d) with respect to the cost of providing security services to the Commercial Portion, Tenant’s Operating Costs Share shall be four percent (4%). There shall be no pass-through of expenses related to the Lot 7 Parking Garage, except as part of permitted Project expenses.
4
P. Tenant’s Tax Share: One hundred percent (100%) for Taxes assessed on the Building.
Q. Tenant Work Allowance: See Exhibit B.

ARTICLE III
TERM
Section 3.01. | Term. |
A. The Term shall commence on the Term Commencement Date specified in Section 1.01.C above, and shall be for the period of time specified in Section 1.01.B above, and expire on the Termination Date specified in Section 1.01.E above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all obligations of the parties, as set forth in this Lease, shall be binding as of the date hereof. If Landlord does not deliver the Leased Premises to Tenant with the Landlord Work substantially complete on or before October 31, 2016 (as such date may be extended as hereinbelow described, the “Outside Date”), then Landlord shall not be liable or responsible for any Losses (as defined below) by reason of such delay and Tenant, as its sole and exclusive remedy, may cancel this Lease by Notice delivered to Landlord no later than 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the thirtieth (30th) day after the Outside Date, and Landlord shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of Tenant’s Notice to deliver the Leased Premises in the condition required hereunder. If Landlord fails to so deliver within such thirty (30) day period, then this Lease shall be deemed terminated and the parties hereto shall have no further liability to each other except that Landlord shall promptly refund the Security Deposit, the Prepaid Base Rent and the OE/Tax Estimate to Tenant. If Landlord’s failure to deliver is caused directly or indirectly by Force Majeure and Landlord has provided Notice as required under Section 17.13, below, and/or any Tenant Delays (as defined in Exhibit B), then Tenant’s option to cancel this Lease shall be postponed for the period of such delay(s) and the Outside Date shall be automatically extended for a period equal to the period or periods of such delay. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall promptly enter into one or more supplementary written agreements specifying or confirming the Term Commencement Date and Termination Date.
B. For purposes of this Lease, the Leased Premises shall be deemed delivered with Landlord’s Work Substantially Completed when Substantial Completion (as defined in Exhibit B) has occurred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, if Substantial Completion is delayed by reason of Tenant Delay, then, for purposes of establishing the Rent Commencement Date, the Term Commencement Date shall be the date the Landlord Work would have been Substantially Complete, absent any Tenant Delay.
Section 3.02. | End of Term. |
This Lease shall terminate on the Termination Date without the necessity of Notice from either Landlord or Tenant. Upon the Termination Date, Tenant shall quit and surrender to Landlord the Leased Premises with the Leased Premises in the same condition as of the date the Tenant Work and approved Alterations were complete, subject to any removal and restoration obligations Tenant may have pursuant to Section 9.05 hereof, and broom-clean, in good order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty that Landlord is obligated hereunder to repair excepted, and shall surrender to Landlord all keys and access cards, if applicable, to or for the Leased Premises. In addition, Tenant shall remove Tenant’s Property in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 9.06 hereof (the foregoing, collectively, the “Required Condition”).
Section 3.03. | Holding Over. |
A. Tenant agrees that it will not occupy or retain or allow occupancy or retention by any subtenant of possession of the Leased Premises at any time after the Termination Date. If Tenant fails to vacate the Leased Premises and deliver Landlord possession of the Leased Premises in the Required Condition on the Termination Date, Landlord shall have the benefit of all provisions of law respecting the speedy recovery of possession of the Leased Premises (whether by summary proceedings or otherwise). In addition to and not in limitation of the
5
foregoing, occupancy subsequent to the Termination Date (“Holdover Occupancy”) shall be a tenancy at sufferance. Holdover Occupancy shall be subject to all terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease (including those requiring payment of Additional Rent), except that the Minimum Rent for each day that Tenant holds over (“Holdover Minimum Rent”) shall be equal to one and one-half (1-1/2) times the per diem Minimum Rent payable in the last Lease Year for the first sixty (60) days and two (2) times the per diem Minimum Rent payable in the last Lease Year thereafter, and any right or option to extend or renew the Lease or to lease any other space or premises in the Building or Project shall be void and of no effect.
B. Subject to the terms hereof, Landlord shall also be entitled to recover all damages, including lost business opportunity regarding any prospective tenant(s) for the Leased Premises, suffered by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s Holdover Occupancy. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may undertake a renovation or redevelopment of the Leased Premises or Building and/or lease the Leased Premises (in whole or in part) to another tenant immediately after the Termination Date and that any breach or other violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03 may result in material damages to Landlord (including without limitation, any damages to Landlord in connection with renovation or redevelopment activities or its reletting of the Leased Premises or any part thereof). Further, Tenant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Landlord for, from and against any and all claims, causes of action, suits, proceedings, demands, damages, losses (including, without limitation, lost rentals and lost business opportunities), liabilities, expenses and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable experts’, consultants’, attorneys’ and court fees and costs) suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of Tenant’s Holdover Occupancy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord’s right to recover any damages under this Subsection B and Tenant’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall not be effective unless Landlord delivers Notice (the “Damage Notice”) to Tenant that Landlord will incur damages if Tenant shall extend its occupancy beyond the Termination Date, which Damage Notice shall reasonably identify the damages that Landlord expects to incur (provided, however, such estimate shall not be binding on Landlord), and provided, further than any Damage Notice will be delivered at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Term, and if it is not delivered prior to such sixty (60) day period, then Tenant will have sixty (60) days after the delivery of any Damage Notice before Tenant will be liable for any damages described in a Damage Notice. For the sake of clarity, nothing in this Subparagraph B shall limit Tenant’s obligation to pay any Holdover Minimum Rent during any Holdover Occupancy or constitute Landlord’s consent to any Holdover Occupancy. The preceding indemnification and hold harmless shall survive the Termination Date and any Holdover Occupancy.
ARTICLE IV
USE AND OPERATION OF THE LEASED PREMISES
Section 4.01. | Intentionally Deleted. |
Section 4.02. | Use. |
A. Tenant shall use the Leased Premises solely for general office, administration, research and development, sales and marketing and reasonably ancillary legal uses consistent with all recorded matters, and in conformity with municipal zoning requirements of the City of San Jose, California, other applicable laws, and the character of the Building as a first class institutional quality office building (the “Permitted Use”) that is part of a mixed-use Project, and for no other purpose. Tenant shall comply with all statutes, laws, rules, orders, regulations and ordinances affecting the Leased Premises or relating to the use, occupancy or alteration thereof and all the orders or reasonable recommendations of any insurance underwriters, safety engineers, and loss prevention consultants as may from time to time be consulted by Landlord. Without limiting the terms and conditions of Section 6.03.B, below, in addition, if Landlord makes any alteration to any part of the Building as a result of any damage or alteration to the Leased Premises caused or made by or on behalf of Tenant or in order to comply with any requirement of any statutes, laws, rules, orders, regulations and ordinances applicable to Tenant’s particular use of the Leased Premises (and not office use of the Leased Premises, generally), then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days after demand (which demand will include a reasonable substantiation of the cost of the relevant improvements and the reason such improvements are necessary), for the actual out of pocket cost thereof. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant is solely responsible for determining if its business complies with the applicable zoning regulations, and that Landlord makes no representation (explicit or implied) concerning such zoning regulations.
B. Tenant shall, at its sole expense: (i) keep the portions of the Leased Premises that Tenant is obligated to maintain under this Lease in a good order and condition consistent with the operation of a first class institutional quality office building that is part of a mixed use project (the “Operating Standard”); (ii) pay before delinquency any and all taxes, assessments and public charges levied, assessed or imposed upon Tenant’s business, upon the leasehold estate created by this Lease or upon Tenant’s fixtures, furnishings or equipment in the Leased Premises; (iii) not use or permit or suffer the use of any portion of the Leased Premises for any unlawful purpose; (iv) not use the plumbing facilities for any purpose other than that for which they were constructed, or dispose of any foreign
6
substances therein; (v) not place a load on any floor exceeding the floor load per square foot which such floor was designed to carry in accordance with the plans and specifications of the Building, and not install, operate or maintain in the Leased Premises any heavy item of equipment except in such manner as to achieve a proper distribution of weight; (vi) not strip, overload, damage or deface the Leased Premises, or the hallways, stairways, elevators of the Building, the Parking Garage, the Common Areas or the fixtures therein or used therewith, nor permit any hole to be made in any of the same; (vii) not move any furniture or equipment into or out of the Leased Premises except at such reasonable times and in such manner as Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate; (viii) not install or operate in the Leased Premises any electrical heating, air conditioning or refrigeration equipment, or other equipment not shown on approved plans which will increase the amount of electricity required for use of the Leased Premises as general office space (other than ordinary office equipment such as personal computers, printers, copiers and the like), without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (ix) not install any other equipment of any kind or nature which will or may necessitate any changes, replacements or additions to, or in the use of, the water, heating, plumbing, air conditioning or electrical systems of the Leased Premises or the Building, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
C. In addition to and not in limitation of the other restrictions on use of the Leased Premises set forth in this Section 4.02, Tenant hereby agrees that the following uses of the Leased Premises shall not be considered permitted: (1) any use of the Leased Premises by an organization or Person enjoying sovereign or diplomatic immunity (the foregoing will not be deemed to prohibit invitees who are representatives or officials of any U.S., state or foreign government); (2) any use of the Leased Premises by or for an employment agency or bureau (other than Tenant’s normal recruitment activities); (3) any use of the Leased Premises for classroom purposes (other than training purposes, including seminars for clients reasonably related to the sale or use of Tenant’s products or other occasional educational events consistent with the Operating Standard that it may be customary or reasonable for software companies such as Tenant to hold or sponsor); (4) any use of the Leased Premises by or for any user which distributes governmental or other payments, benefits or information to Persons who are required to personally appear at the Leased Premises to collect such benefits; (5) any laboratory use that requires the handling of Hazardous Substances; (6) any medical use involving the treatment of patients or handling of medical waste and/or Hazardous Substances in the Building, other than employee first aid; (7) except as expressly provided in Section 15.01.G, below, retail sales of merchandise to members of the public, other than one or more company stores that may sell products, including clothing branded with Tenant’s logos to Tenant’s employees and/or invitees; (8) any use that interferes with, injures or unreasonably annoys other occupants of the Project; (9) any use that constitutes a nuisance; (10) any use that involves the presence, use, release or discharge of Hazardous Substances (as defined below); provided, however, that Tenant may handle, store, use and dispose of products containing small quantities of Hazardous Substances for general office purposes (such as toner for copiers and standard cleaning solvents and chemicals found in office cleaning supplies and reasonable quantities of other substances that Tenant may store as required to fulfill Tenant’s maintenance obligations under this Lease), to the extent customary and necessary for the Permitted Use of the Leased Premises, so long as Tenant always handles, stores, uses, and disposes of any such Hazardous Substances in a safe and lawful manner and does not allow such Hazardous Substances to contaminate the Leased Premises, Building, or Project or surrounding land or environment); (10) any use that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the utility, use, appearance or value of the Building, the Project, or any portion thereof; and (11) any other use of the Leased Premises by any user that is not otherwise permitted in this Lease and will attract a volume, frequency or type of visitor or employee to the Leased Premises which is not consistent with the Operating Standard, or that will in any way impose an excessive demand or use on the facilities or services of the Leased Premises or the Building.
Section 4.03. | Signs and Advertising. |
Tenant shall not inscribe, paint, affix, or otherwise display any sign, advertisement or notice on any part of the outside of the Leased Premises, other than signs permitted hereunder; provided, however, (i) that so long as Tenant, any Permitted Transferee or other assignee approved by Landlord occupies at least thirty percent (30%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises originally leased hereunder, Tenant shall be entitled to the maximum exterior signage allowed by applicable law and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, subject to compliance with all such applicable laws; provided, however, that any exterior signage located on any portion of the exterior of the Building that is twenty feet (20’) or less in height from grade shall be subject to Landlord’s office sign criteria attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Single Tenant Office Building Sign Criteria”) and all other matters contained in the public records, including any applicable laws and/or ordinances; and (ii) Tenant will in any event be permitted to install lobby and suite door signage, from time to time at Tenant’s sole cost; provided, however, that any lobby signage visible from outside of the Leased Premises shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as the same complies with the Single Tenant Office Building Sign Criteria. The material, typeface, graphic format and proportions of Tenant’s exterior signage, as well as the precise location of such signage and method of installation, shall be subject to Landlord’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby approves Tenant’s exterior signage attached hereto as Exhibit G; provided, however, that such approval shall neither constitute a representation

and/or warranty that such exterior signage complies with all applicable laws nor obviate the need for Tenant to obtain all necessary approvals and permits for such signage from the City of San Jose, which permits and approvals Tenant shall obtain at Tenant’s sole cost. The failure of Tenant to obtain such approvals shall not release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease. Tenant, at its sole expense, shall maintain Tenant’s signs in accordance with the Operating Standard during the Term. Landlord will, to the extent consistent with applicable laws, maintain the Protected Area (as defined below) in such a way to avoid unreasonable obstruction or blocking of the visibility of Tenant’s exterior signs. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove all such signs by the expiration or any earlier termination of this Lease. Such installations and removals shall be made in such manner as to avoid injury to or defacement of the Building and any improvements contained therein, and Tenant shall reasonably repair any injury or defacement including, without limitation, discoloration caused by such installation or removal to an appearance consistent with the Operating Standard. At such time that Tenant, a Permitted Transferee or another Transferee by assignment approved by Landlord no longer occupies at least thirty percent (30%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises originally leased hereunder, Tenant’s right to maintain its signage on the exterior of the Building shall terminate within thirty (30) days after Landlord provides Notice of the failure of the foregoing condition. Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with Notice once Tenant no longer occupies at least thirty percent (30%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises originally leased hereunder. Further, promptly upon Landlord’s written request, Tenant shall notify Landlord of the percentage of the Leased Premises occupied by Tenant as of the date of its receipt of such request. If any of Tenant’s signs, advertisements or notices are painted, affixed, or otherwise displayed on the exterior of the Building without the prior written approval of Landlord, then, without limiting Landlord’s other rights hereunder, Landlord shall have the right after ten (10) Business Days prior notice to Tenant, to remove the same, and Tenant shall be liable for any and all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such removal. The signage rights provided to any retail Transferee shall be subject to Section 15.01.G, below and such retail Transferee’s rights shall not be dependent on the occupancy test set forth above.

RENT
Section 5.01. | Rent Payable. |
A. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay all Rent owing from time to time to Landlord, without prior Notice or demand and without offset, deduction or counterclaim whatsoever, in the amounts, at the rates and times set forth herein, in the manner set forth in this Section 5.01.A. Tenant shall (i) promptly execute any and all agreements and authorizations, and supply any and all information necessary, to authorize Landlord to initiate debit entries (“Auto-Debit Transfers”) from Tenant’s account to Landlord for such portions of Rent due under this Lease as Landlord may elect to be paid by Auto-Debit Transfer; and (ii) take all actions necessary on Tenant’s part to insure that any and all such payments will be received by the Landlord by the dates due as specified in this Lease. Except for the first month’s Rent and Security Deposit, Landlord initially elects that Minimum Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes shall be paid by Auto-Debit Transfer. Landlord may change any election to cause Rent or any portion thereof to be paid by Auto-Debit Transfer by giving Notice to Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any change. All payments of Rent not made by Auto-Debit Transfer shall be made at the place set forth in Section 1.01 or as Landlord may otherwise designate by Notice to Tenant at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any change.
B. If Tenant fails to make any payment of Rent by the date such Rent is due, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late payment charge equal to five percent (5%) of such payment of Rent, except that Landlord agrees to waive such late charge for the first time (but only once) during any Lease Year if Tenant pays the past due Rent within five (5) Business Days after receipt of Landlord’s Notice of nonpayment. Payment of such late charge shall not excuse or waive the late payment of Rent. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that such late charge is a reasonable estimate of the damages Landlord may incur as a result of Tenant’s late payment of Rent, and that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to determine Landlord’s actual damages.
C. If Landlord receives two (2) or more checks from Tenant that are dishonored by Tenant’s bank, all checks for Rent thereafter shall be bank certified and Landlord shall not be required to accept checks except in such form. Tenant shall pay Landlord any bank service charges resulting from dishonored checks, plus Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) for each dishonored check as compensation to Landlord for the additional cost of processing such check.
D. Any payment by Tenant of less than the total Rent due shall be treated as a payment on account. Acceptance of any check bearing an endorsement, or accompanied by a letter stating, that such amount constitutes “payment in full” (or terms of similar import) shall not be an accord and satisfaction or a novation, and such statement shall be given no effect. Landlord may accept any check without prejudice to any rights or remedies which Landlord may have against Tenant.
8
E. For any portion of a calendar month at the beginning of the Term, Tenant shall pay in advance the pro-rated amount of the Rent for each day included in such portion of the month.
Section 5.02. | Payment of Minimum Rent. |
Tenant shall pay Landlord the Minimum Rent set forth in Section 1.01.F, above, in equal monthly installments, in advance, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, subject only to the express abatement rights provided in this Lease, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter throughout the Term. An amount equal to the Prepaid Base Rent shall be paid in advance in accordance with Section 1.01.M, above, and credited toward the first payment of Minimum Rent due hereunder.
ARTICLE VI
COMMON AREAS
Section 6.01. | Use of Common Areas. |
A. Tenant shall have a non-exclusive license to use the Common Areas for ingress to and egress from the Leased Premises, and the non-exclusive right to use any portion of the Common Areas designated for parking, including, without limitation the Lot 7 Parking Garage and Parking Garage for parking, subject to (i) Tenant’s right to exclusively use the Parking Garage during Normal Business Hours, (ii) the exclusive control and management of Landlord and the rights of Landlord, and (iii) to the extent of any such Common Areas are shared with other tenants, the rights of other tenants. Tenant shall comply with such non-discriminatory rules and regulations as Landlord prescribes regarding use of the Common Areas; provided, however, that such rules and regulations shall be consistent with the Operating Standard. Tenant shall not use the Common Areas for any sales or display purposes, or for any purpose which would impede or create hazardous conditions for the flow of pedestrian or other traffic. The Common Areas shall at all times be subject to the exclusive control and management of Landlord.
B. Landlord, at its sole cost, shall purchase outdoor chairs, tables and umbrellas (collectively, the “Outdoor Furniture”) to be located in the area designated on Exhibit A as the “Outdoor Furniture Area” for the non-exclusive use of Tenant, its employees and invitees. The Outdoor Furniture shall be substantially similar in quality as other outdoor furniture maintained by Landlord in the Common Areas of the Project. Further, Landlord shall clean, maintain, repair and replace such Outdoor Furniture in a manner consistent with the Operating Standard; provided, however, that the cost thereof shall be includable as an Operating Cost.
C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, with respect to the areas designated as the “Protected Area” on Exhibit A, Landlord agrees that Landlord shall not construct any improvements within the Protected Area that materially and adversely affect access to the Leased Premises via the entrances to the Building or the visibility of Tenant’s exterior signage; provided, however, nothing contained herein shall limit Landlord’s right to install, maintain, repair and/or replace (i) those improvements within the Protected Area and depicted on Exhibit A; (ii) the Outdoor Furniture within the Outdoor Furniture Area; and (iii) landscaping, fountains and other similar types of improvements and amenities within the Protected Area that are typically found in common areas of projects similar to the Project. Further, the foregoing provisions of this section shall not apply in instances where access and/or visibility is temporarily affected as a result of repairs, remodeling, renovation or other construction to the Project or where such changes are required in order to comply with applicable laws.
D. So long as no Default is continuing and Tenant occupies at least seventy percent (70%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises initially leased hereunder, Tenant shall have the right to use the Protected Area for Tenant’s special events (e.g. product launches, company events, job fairs, etc.) (collectively, “Special Event(s)”) subject to the following: (i) Tenant shall provide Landlord with no less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior Notice (a “Special Events Notice”) of any Special Event, which Special Events Notice shall specify the date, time and specific uses (which shall be consistent with the Operating Standard) planned for the specific Special Event; (ii) Tenant may hold Special Events in the Protected Area up to a total of twenty-four (24) days during each Lease Year, provided, however, that no single Special Event shall extend beyond two (2) consecutive days in duration; (iii) all Special Events shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws, the terms and conditions of this Lease, and in a manner that will not unreasonably disturb or interfere with the other tenants and occupants of the Project or otherwise impede any loading/drop-off areas, fire-lanes, “no-parking” areas, or ingress/egress generally within the Project; (iv) no Special Event shall be used for the sale, display, marketing, promotion, testing, training or other use that violates the exclusive mercantile rights of any other tenants or occupants in the Project (copies of which Landlord shall provide upon receipt of Tenant’s written request); and (v) if the Special Event will require additional security, then Landlord shall notify Tenant within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of the Special Events Notice whereupon Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, arrange for such additional security measures as Landlord may reasonably request. Tenant shall insure Tenant’s activities related to any Special Events, shall clean (including the removal of any and all trash and refuse) the Protected Area both during such Special Event and following the completion of any such Special Event, and shall repair all damage to the Protected Area resulting from any activities
9
related to such Special Event. The rights granted under this Section 6.01.D are personal to the Original Tenant (as defined below) and any Permitted Transferee (as defined below).
Section 6.02. | Management and Operation of Common Areas. |
Landlord shall operate, repair, equip and maintain the Common Areas in a manner consistent with the Operating Standard and shall have the exclusive right and authority to employ and discharge personnel with respect thereto (provided Landlord will endeavor to respond, subject to Landlord’s customary employment practices and applicable employment laws, to any reasonable complaints of Tenant regarding the behavior of specific personnel who interact with Tenant or its employees or invitees). Without limiting the foregoing, so long as such use is consistent with the Operating Standard Landlord may (i) use the Common Areas (other than the Protected Area) from time to time for short term promotions, exhibits and displays, outdoor seating, food facilities and any other use which tends to benefit the Project, or any part thereof that are consistent with the Operating Standard; (ii) grant the temporary right to conduct sales in the Common Areas (other than the Protected Area); (iii) erect, remove and lease kiosks, planters, pools, sculptures and other improvements within the Common Areas (other than the Protected Areas); (iv) enter into, modify and terminate easements and other agreements pertaining to the use and maintenance of the Project, or any part thereof that do not materially and adversely affect access to the Leased Premises pursuant to the entrances to the Building or the use of the Leased Premises for the Permitted Use or Tenant’s parking rights, or the visibility of Tenant’s exterior signs; (v) construct, maintain, operate, replace and remove lighting, equipment, and signs on all or any part of the Common Areas that do not materially interfere with the visibility of Tenant’s exterior signs; (vi) provide security personnel for the Parking Garage and Lot 7 Parking Garage and/or other Common Areas; and (vii) subject to Tenant’s express parking rights hereunder, restrict parking in the Parking Garage and/or the Lot 7 Parking Garage. Subject to Tenant’s express parking rights hereunder, Landlord reserves the right at any time and from time to time to change or alter the location, layout, nature or arrangement of the Common Areas or any portion thereof, so long as such changes do not unreasonably interfere with access to the Leased Premises via the entrances to the Building or the use of the Leased Premises for the Permitted Use. Landlord shall have the right to close temporarily all or any portion of the Common Areas to such extent as may, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be necessary for repairs, replacements or maintenance to the Common Areas, provided such repairs, replacements or maintenance are performed expeditiously and in such a manner so as not to deprive Tenant of access to the Leased Premises and Landlord otherwise uses reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with access to the Leased Premises via the entrances to the Building, or use of the Leased Premises for the Permitted Use and are made in good faith and not with the intent to interfere with the visibility of Tenant’s signs. Any diminution or shutting off of light, air or view by any structure which may be erected on lands adjacent to or in the vicinity of the Building shall in no way affect this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord.
Section 6.03. | Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes. |
A. For each Operating Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner provided herein, Tenant’s share of Operating Costs and Taxes (“Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes”). The applicable percentage to be applied to each element of Operating Costs and Taxes will be determined in accordance with Sections 1.02(O) and (P); provided, however, that for the Operating Years during which the Term begins and ends, Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days Tenant occupied, or could have occupied based on the Term of this Lease, the Leased Premises during each such Operating Year.
B. Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes shall be paid, in advance, without Notice, demand, abatement (except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease), deduction or set-off, on the first day of each calendar month during the Term, said monthly amounts to be determined on the basis of reasonable estimates prepared by Landlord on an annual basis (each an “Operating Costs Statement”) and delivered to Tenant prior to the commencement of each Operating Year. If, however, Landlord fails to furnish any such estimate prior to the commencement of an Operating Year, then (a) until the first day of the month following the month in which such estimate is furnished to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each month an amount equal to the monthly sum payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Section 6.03 in respect of the last month of the preceding Operating Year; (b) promptly after such estimate is furnished to Tenant, Landlord shall give Notice to Tenant whether the installments of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes paid by Tenant for the current Operating Year have resulted in a deficiency or overpayment compared to payments which would have been paid under such estimate, and Tenant, within ten (10) days after receipt of such estimate, shall pay any deficiency to Landlord and any overpayment shall at the option of Tenant be credited against future payments required by Tenant, or paid to Tenant; and (c) on the first day of the month following the month in which such estimate is furnished to Tenant and monthly thereafter throughout the remainder of the Operating Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the monthly payment shown on such estimate. Landlord may at any time or from time to time not more than twice each year furnish to Tenant a revised estimate of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes for such Operating Year, and in such case, Tenant’s monthly payments shall be adjusted and paid or credited, as the case may be, substantially in the same manner as provided in the preceding sentence. Each Operating Costs Statement provided by Landlord shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless within sixty (60) days after receipt thereof, Tenant notifies Landlord that
10
it disputes the correctness thereof, specifying those respects in which Tenant claims the Operating Costs Statement to be incorrect. After the expiration of each Operating Year, Landlord shall submit to Tenant a statement showing the determination of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes (the “Reconciliation Statement”). If such statement shows that the total of Tenant’s monthly payments pursuant to this Section 6.03 exceed Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes, then Landlord will credit such refund to the next payment(s) coming due or, at the election of Tenant, refund such monies to Tenant; provided, however, that no such refund shall be made while Tenant is in Default of any provision of this Lease and such Default shall continue. If such Reconciliation Statement shows that Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes exceeded the aggregate of Tenant’s monthly payments pursuant to this Section 6.03 for the applicable Operating Year, then Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receiving the statement, pay such deficiency to Landlord. Each Reconciliation Statement provided by Landlord shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt thereof, Tenant notifies Landlord that it disputes the correctness thereof. Tenant or its agent (which, in either event, shall be an accountant experienced in conducting such audits that is not paid on a contingency basis) shall have the right, during the one hundred twenty (120) day period following delivery of a Reconciliation Statement, at Tenant’s sole cost to review, in Landlord’s offices or in the offices of Landlord’s property manager in the Project, Landlord’s records of Operating Costs and Taxes for the subject Operating Year during normal business hours and upon at least fifteen (15) days prior Notice to Landlord (“Audit”). No Audit shall in any way delay or excuse Tenant’s obligation to pay any deficiency referenced in the Reconciliation Statement within the time period stated above. If Tenant does not complete its Audit and object in writing to the Reconciliation Statement within one hundred twenty (120) day period of its receipt of such Reconciliation Statement, then such Reconciliation Statement shall be deemed final and binding on Landlord and Tenant. Tenant and its agents shall keep any information gained from its Audit of Landlord’s books and records confidential and shall not disclose any such information to any other party, except (x) as required by applicable laws, including securities laws, (y) in any litigation to resolve any disputed amounts with Landlord (provided such disclosure shall be limited to matters relating to such dispute), or (z) as otherwise required by law in response to a court order or legal process; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required under this clause (z), Tenant shall provide Landlord with prompt notice of any such disclosure requirement so that Landlord may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive Landlord’s compliance with such requirement. Subject to the foregoing, Landlord may require that Tenant and/or its auditor execute a commercially reasonable non-disclosure agreement prior to making any records available for review. Only one (1) Audit may be performed with respect to each Operating Year. Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with a full and complete copy of any Audit. If such Audit discloses a liability for a refund by Landlord and if Landlord agrees with the analysis provided in Tenant’s Audit, then Landlord shall remit such refund to Tenant within thirty (30) days; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right, without the obligation, to apply all or any portion of such refund to remedy any monetary Default by Tenant occurring hereunder; provided, further, it is expressly covenanted and agreed that such remedy by Landlord shall not be deemed to waive, or release, the monetary Default of Tenant. If such Audit discloses a liability for a payment by Tenant, then Tenant shall remit such payment to Landlord within thirty (30) days. Further, if such Audit establishes (either by agreement with Landlord or determination by the Audit Professionals (as defined below)) that the Reconciliation Statement overstated the total amount owed by Tenant by more than five percent (5%), then Landlord shall be responsible for the reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses paid by Tenant to third parties in connection with such Audit up to Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) per Audit. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, Tenant shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with such Audit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Landlord disputes the findings of an Audit and the parties are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days, then Landlord and Tenant agree to submit any disputed items to a firm of real estate audit professionals mutually acceptable to Landlord and Tenant (“Audit Professionals”) for resolution (as provided below) and any payment or refund shall not become effective until ten (10) day after the determination of the Audit Professionals. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on Audit Professionals within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, then Landlord and Tenant shall each, within ten (10) days of the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, select one (1) independent firm of Audit Professionals, and such two (2) Audit Professionals shall together select a third Audit Professional, which third firm shall be the Audit Professional who shall resolve the dispute. The third Audit Professional shall be entitled to review all records relating to the disputed items. The determination of the third Audit Professional shall be final and binding upon both Landlord and Tenant and the third Audit Professional’s expenses shall be borne by the party against whom the decision is rendered. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, Tenant may not examine Landlord’s records or dispute any Annual Statement if there is an uncured Default that is continuing, no assignee of Tenant’s interest in this Lease or the Leased Premises shall have the right to review Landlord’s records or dispute any Reconciliation Statement for any period during which such transferee was not in possession of the Leased Premises, and no sublessee of Tenant shall have the right to review Landlord’s records or dispute any Reconciliation Statement.
C. “Operating Costs” means the following expenses and costs which Landlord shall pay or become obligated to pay because of or in connection with owning, operating, managing, painting, repairing, insuring and cleaning the Building, the Parking Garage and, only to the extent expressly provided below, the Commercial Portion of the Project, as applicable:
11
(i) a property management fee equal to the lesser of (a) the actual property management fee paid by Landlord to an independent third party property management company if Landlord retains a third party property management company to manage the Common Areas, or (b) three percent (3%) of annual Minimum Rent (it being agreed that during the Abatement Period, such property management fee shall be based on the Minimum Rent shown on the Minimum Rent schedule set forth in Section 1.01, above, without considering the abatement of Minimum Rent during such period);
(ii) the cost of all insurance coverage, including self-insurance, for the Building and the Parking Garage including but not limited to the costs of premiums for insurance with respect to personal injury, bodily injury, including death, property damage, business interruption, workmen’s compensation insurance covering personnel and such other insurance as Landlord shall deem reasonably necessary and is permitted to maintain under this Lease, which insurance Landlord may maintain under policies covering other properties owned by Landlord in which event the premium shall be reasonably allocated among all properties covered by such insurance (collectively, the “Insurance Costs”);
(iii) the cost of providing the services described in Sections 7.01 below, except as otherwise expressly provided therein, or unless the service is directly metered and paid to the relevant utility;
(iv) the cost of providing security services to the Commercial Portion, allocated as set forth in this Lease;
(v) the cost of performing Landlord’s obligations under Section 10.01 below, subject to the exclusions set forth herein; and
(vi) any other costs incurred by Landlord in connection with the ownership, management, maintenance, repair and operation of the Leased Premises, Building and Parking Garage except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease.
Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate any Operating Costs applicable to the Project among different portions or occupants of the Project (the “Cost Pools”); provided, however, in no event shall the use of such Cost Pools result in a duplication of Operating Costs and all such allocations will be made in accordance with sound property management practices and general in accord with the practices of similar landlords of mixed-use projects. Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants of a particular building of the Project or of the Project, the retail space tenants of a particular building of the Project or of the Project, the hotel tenants of a particular building of the Project and the Residential Portion of the Project, but all such allocations shall be reasonable such that there is no material cross-subsidy or underpayment of Operating Cost contribution by any user in relation to the services consumed by any such user. The Operating Costs allocated to any such Cost Pool shall be allocated and charged to the tenants and occupants within such Cost Pool in otherwise in an equitable manner, in Landlord’s reasonable discretion.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operating Costs will in no event include the following: (1) costs paid directly by Tenant; (2) depreciation on the Building; (3) debt service; (4) rental under any ground or underlying lease; (5) interest unless expressly recoverable under this Lease, (6) attorneys’ fees and expenses or other costs, including brokers’ commissions incurred in connection with lease negotiations or lease disputes with prospective, current or past Building tenants, including the negotiation of letters of intent or leases; (7) the cost of any improvements, equipment or tools that would be properly classified as capital expenditures under generally accepted accounting principles (except that the following capital costs may be included in Operating Costs: (i) the cost of any capital improvements made by Landlord to the Building or capital assets acquired by Landlord during the term of this Lease for the Building, or Project if such capital improvements or capital assets are required under any governmental law, regulation or insurance requirement, that shall come into effect after the date of Substantial Completion, such cost or allocable portion to be amortized over the useful life thereof, together with interest on the unamortized balance at a rate per annum equal to the actual rate of interest paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the purpose of constructing or acquiring such capital improvements or capital assets as reasonably documented by Landlord; provided, however, that if Landlord does not borrow funds for such construction or acquisition, then interest at the rate of one percent (1%) above the prime rate of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or such successor national bank selected by Landlord then in force (the “Imputed Interest Rate”); and (ii) the cost of any capital improvements made by Landlord to the Building or Project or capital assets acquired by Landlord after the date hereof that are reasonably determined by Landlord to reduce other Operating Costs, such cost or allocable portion thereof to be amortized over the useful life thereof (except that Landlord may include as an Operating Costs in any calendar year a portion of the cost of such a capital improvement or capital asset equal to Landlord’s estimate of the amount of the reduction of other Operating Expenses in such year resulting from such capital improvement or capital asset, if such amount is greater than the amortization provided, until such amount and interest as calculated hereunder is fully amortized), together with interest on the unamortized balance at a rate per annum equal to the actual interest rate paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the purpose of constructing or acquiring such capital improvements or capital assets
12
to reduce Operating Costs; provided, however, that if Landlord does not borrow funds for the foregoing, then interest at the Imputed Interest Rate will be applied to any outstanding unamortized balance); and (iii) the cost of any capital improvements made by Landlord to the Building Project or the Parking Garage or capital assets acquired by Landlord during the term of this Lease; provided, however, that Operating Costs shall not contain as a component thereof in any one Lease Year a charge for the capital expenditures referenced in this subparagraph (iii) in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) (the “CapEx Cap”); provided, that the CapEx Cap shall be increased by ten percent (10%) on the first (1st) day of the fifth (5th) Lease Year and every fifth (5th) year thereafter during the Term and any extensions and renewals thereof); (8) the cost of decorating, improving for tenant occupancy, painting or redecorating portions of the Building to be demised to tenants, including tenants of the Retail Area advertising expenses relating to vacant space or real estate brokers’ or other leasing commissions; (9) costs of utilities for any tenant’s premises if separately metered, (10) costs incurred in connection with the original construction of the Building or Project or in connection with any major change in the Building that is not made at the request of Tenant, or any change to the Building or Project that is required to correct any violation of law not caused by Tenant existing on the Rent Commencement Date, or a breach by Landlord of the Lease, including the Work Letter; (11) costs for which Landlord is fully reimbursed by any tenant or occupant of the Building or by insurance by its insurance carrier or any tenant’s insurance carrier or by anyone else; (12) any bad debt loss, rent loss, or reserves for bad debts or rent loss; (13) costs associated with the operation of the business of the partnership or limited liability company or other entity that may from time to time constitute Landlord, as the same are distinguished from the costs of operation of the Building or Project, including accounting and legal matters, costs of defending any lawsuits with any Mortgagee (except as the actions of Tenant may be the issue), costs of selling, syndicating, financing, mortgaging or hypothecating any of Landlord’s interest in the Building or Project (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs), costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs) of settlement, judgments and payments in lieu thereof) arising from claims, disputes or potential disputes in connection with potential or actual claims, litigation or arbitrations respecting Landlord and/or the Building; (14) the wages and benefits of any employee who does not devote substantially all of his or her time to the Building or Project, unless such wages and benefits are prorated to reflect time spent by any such employee on maintaining, securing, repairing, operating or managing the Building or Project vis-a-vis the total time spent by any such employee on matters unrelated to such activities, and in any case no wages or benefits of any employee of Landlord above Building manager will be included in Operating Costs; (15) costs paid to Landlord or to affiliates of Landlord for services in the Building or Project to the extent the same materially exceed or would materially exceed the costs for such services if rendered by first class unaffiliated third parties on a competitive basis; (16) costs arising from Landlord’s political or charitable contributions; (17) costs for sculpture, paintings or other objects of art; (18) Landlord’s general corporate overhead; (19) costs of removal or remediation of Hazardous Substances; (20) the cost of rental for items (except when needed in connection with normal repairs and maintenance or keeping permanent systems in operation while repairs are being made) which if purchased, rather than rented, would constitute a capital improvement or expense except to the extent permitted above; (21) expenses directly resulting from defaults by or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees; (22) intentionally deleted; (23) penalties, fines and late charges resulting from Landlord’s failure to make payments when required under applicable law, unless resulting from the failure of Tenant to pay Rental as and when required herein; (24) costs arising from latent defects in any portion of the Landlord’s Work for a period of one (1) year after Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work; and (25) costs associated exclusively with the retail portions of the Commercial Portion, if any. The foregoing will not in any event be construed to prohibit payment to Landlord of any Tenant Capital Repair Amortization in accordance with Article X hereof, the Metered Charge for the Condenser Water System provided herein, but the foregoing limitations on inclusions of capital expenditures will apply to any capital expenses included in the expense base for the purposes of calculating the Metered Charge.
D. “Taxes” means all governmental or quasi-governmental real estate taxes, fees, charges, impositions and assessments (whether general, special, ordinary, or extraordinary) applicable to the Building and/or Project (including without limitation any assessments or charges by any business improvement district), together with all reasonable costs and fees (including reasonable appraiser, consultant and attorney’s fees) incurred by Landlord in any tax contest, appeal or negotiation. “Taxes” shall also include that portion of any ground rent payments made by Landlord that represent the pass-through of real estate taxes from any ground lessor to Landlord and all rent or services taxes and/or so-called “gross receipts” or “receipts” taxes (including, but not limited to, any business license, sales, use or similar taxes) whether or not enacted in addition to, in lieu of or in substitution for any other tax. “Taxes” shall also include any personal property taxes incurred on Landlord’s personal property used in connection with the Building. “Taxes” shall not include personal income taxes, personal property taxes, inheritance taxes, or franchise taxes levied against the Landlord, and not directly against said property, even though such taxes might become a lien against said property.

Landlord shall have access to and reserves the right to inspect, erect, use, connect to, maintain and repair pipes, ducts, conduits, cables, plumbing, vents and wires, and other facilities in, to and through the Leased Premises as and to the extent that Landlord may now or hereafter deem to be reasonably necessary or appropriate for the proper operation and maintenance of the Building or the Parking Garage and the right at all times to transmit water, heat, air conditioning and electric current through such pipes, conduits, cables, plumbing, vents and wires and the right to interrupt the same in the event of an Emergency (as defined below) without eviction of Tenant or abatement of Rent, provided that, except in the event of an Emergency, no such facilities or work shall unreasonably interfere with the use of the Leased Premises for the Permitted Use, access to the Leased Premises via the entrances to the Building or result in a reduction of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises by more than one percent (1%) of any floor thereof and one percent (1%) on an aggregate basis. Any failure by Landlord to furnish the services described in Section 7.01 (or any other services as may be required of Landlord under this Lease) resulting from circumstances beyond Landlord’s reasonable control or from interruption of such services due to repairs or maintenance, shall not render Landlord liable in any respect for damages to either Person or property, nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor cause an abatement of Rent hereunder, nor relieve Tenant from any of its obligations hereunder, unless expressly provided to the contrary in this Lease. If any public utility or governmental body shall require Landlord or Tenant to restrict the consumption of any utility or reduce any service for the Leased Premises or the Building, Landlord and Tenant shall comply with such requirements without any liability on the part of Landlord to Tenant or any other Person or any reduction or adjustment in Rent payable hereunder. Landlord and its agents shall be permitted reasonable access to the Leased Premises for the purpose of installing and servicing systems within the Leased Premises deemed reasonably necessary by Landlord to perform Landlord’s obligations under this Lease, provided that, except in the event of an Emergency, no such work shall unreasonably interfere with the use of the Leased Premises for the Permitted Use or access to the Leased Premises via the entrances to the Building. For purposes of this Lease, an “Emergency” shall mean an event that poses an imminent risk to the health or safety of
14
persons or property in the Building. Further, Tenant agrees that the tenants of the Project shall be permitted to access the dumpsters and/or trash compactors located in the loading dock at the rear of the Building for the sole purpose of disposing of their trash and refuse; subject however to Landlord’s indemnity in Section 8.01(B) hereof.
Section 7.03. | Utilities. |
A. Tenant shall pay, when due, all charges for water, sewer, electricity, telephone service and other utilities supplied to the Leased Premises (“Utility Charges”). Electric utility charges shall be based upon test meter readings, and water utility charges (including, without limitation, Landlord supplied condenser water) shall be based upon flow and/or BTU meter readings as provided below. Tenant shall also pay Landlord Tenant’s proportionate share of Utility Charges for any non-separately metered utilities as reasonably documented by Landlord, calculated by Landlord reasonably consistent with the practices of other first class institutional landlords for calculation of such charges. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, (i) all utility charges to the Retail Area shall be separately metered at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, and no portion of any such charges shall be included in the Utility Charges assessed to the Leased Premises, and (ii) if the Building includes facilities such as elevators for access to the retail areas of the Project that are excluded from the calculation of Floor Area for the purposes hereof, all such areas and/or facilities will be separately metered at Landlord’s sole cost and expense.
B. Landlord shall install, at Landlord’s expense, a check meter, test meter or other such device(s) that separately measures actual electricity and water usage for and in the Leased Premises. Tenant shall pay Landlord electric and water Utility Charges based upon such readings, plus a reasonable, non-discriminatory service fee for reading Tenant’s check meter, test meter or other such device(s), within ten (10) Business Days after billing, provided such Utility Charges shall be comparable to the rate Tenant would have paid had the relevant utilities been charged directly for the same services by the local utility authority plus a reasonable meter check fee. It is the intent of the parties that Utility Charges shall be separate from and in addition to Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs.
C. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord, as part of the Landlord’s Work, shall install, at Tenant’s expense, flow and/or BTU meters that measure Tenant’s use of condenser water from the Condenser Water System, and, in addition to payment of Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s standard, nondiscriminatory metered charge, assessed in the same manner for all tenants of the Project that use such Condenser Water System based on metered usage, and consistent with the practices of other first class institutional landlords that bill tenants for use of condenser water from shared condenser water systems, for the condenser water delivered to the HVAC systems serving the Leased Premises and/or for any other uses of such condenser water approved by Landlord, which charge shall include the cost of such condenser water as assessed by the water utility, the cost of the electricity necessary to produce such condenser water and deliver it to the Leased Premises as shown on meters that shall service the Condenser Water System, the cost of the scheduled regular maintenance on the Condenser Water System, and a seven and one-half percent (7.5%) management fee (collectively, the “Metered Charge”). The Metered Charge shall be billed to Tenant no more frequently than monthly and Tenant shall pay Landlord the Metered Charge within thirty (30) days after receipt of each Landlord invoice therefor, which shall detail and reasonably substantiate any relevant charges. At the time Landlord provides a Reconciliation Statement, Landlord will provide Tenant with a statement of the total amounts billed to Tenant and to other tenants for the Condenser Water System in the aggregate, and total costs to operate the system, including the management fee, for Tenant’s review. In addition, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Share (as determined in accordance with Section 1.02.O, above) of the cost of repairing and replacing the Condenser Water System and/or components thereof, subject to the same exclusions set forth in Section 6.03.C, above, applicable to Operating Costs but applied to the costs of such repairs and/or replacements.
D. Tenant, promptly upon request, shall deliver to Landlord (or, at Landlord’s option, execute and deliver to Landlord an instrument enabling Landlord to obtain from such provider) any data about such consumption that Landlord, in its reasonable judgment, is required to disclose to a prospective buyer, tenant or Lender or prospective Lender under California Public Resources Code §25402.10 or any similar law. Landlord hereby authorizes Tenant to make any disclosures required in connection with foregoing and shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant to provide Tenant with any data required to complete any Data Verification Checklist or other document required to be completed to comply with the foregoing. The foregoing will not in any event be construed to require Tenant to report any data that is generated by any Landlord operated system, such as the Condenser Water System, or that is in the exclusive control of Landlord.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, Tenant shall cause any contractor performing any portion of the Tenant Work to maintain Commercial General Liability Insurance, including completed operations and contractual liability coverage, providing on an occurrence basis limits not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) per occurrence and Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00) general aggregate until Substantial Completion (and thereafter limits of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) per occurrence and general aggregate, and if the policy also covers projects other than the Leased Premises, the policy shall include a provision to the effect that the aggregate limit shall apply separately at the Leased Premises.
Section 8.05. | Policy Requirements. |
Any company writing any insurance which Tenant is required to maintain or cause to be maintained under Sections 8.03 and 8.04 as well as any other insurance pertaining to the Leased Premises or the operation of Tenant’s business therein (all such insurance being referred to as “Tenant’s Insurance”) shall at all times be licensed and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Leased Premises are located and shall have received an A-VII or better rating by the latest edition of A.M. Best’s Insurance Rating Service. All of Tenant’s Insurance may be carried under a blanket policy covering the Leased Premises and any other location of Tenant, if (i) the coverage afforded Landlord and any designees of Landlord shall not be reduced or otherwise adversely affected, and (ii) such blanket policy allocates to the properties and liabilities to be insured under this Article VIII an amount not less than the amount of insurance required to be covered pursuant to this Article VIII, so that the proceeds of such insurance
17
shall not be less than the proceeds that would be available if Tenant were insured under a unitary policy. Tenant’s and Tenant’s contractors Commercial General Liability policies shall name Landlord and/or its designees described in Section 8.03(A), above as additional insured, and Tenant’s property insurance policies shall name Landlord and/or its designees as loss payee for Leasehold Improvements and betterments. All policies of Tenant’s Insurance shall, if available from the insurer, contain endorsements requiring the insurer(s) to give to all additional insureds at least thirty (30) days’ advance Notice of any reduction, cancellation, termination or non-renewal of said insurance. If such endorsement is not available, then Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing of any potential cancellation or material modification of Tenant’s insurance policies of which Tenant has knowledge at least ten (10) Business Days before any such insurance shall be cancelled or modified. Tenant shall be solely responsible for payment of premiums for all of Tenant’s Insurance. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord at least fifteen (15) days prior to the time Tenant’s Insurance is first required to be carried by Tenant, and upon renewals within three (3) days from the expiration of the term of any such insurance policy (provided, however, in no event shall Tenant allow any such insurance to lapse at any time during the Term), a certificate of insurance of all policies of Tenant’s Insurance. The limits of Tenant’s Insurance shall not limit Tenant’s liability under the Lease, at law, or in equity. Tenant’s Commercial General Liability Insurance shall be primary and non-contributory with respect to Landlord’s liability arising out of the act or omission of Tenant, its officers, agents, contractors, employees. If Tenant fails to deposit a certificate of insurance with Landlord (which shows compliance with the provisions of this Article VIII) within three (3) days after Notice from Landlord, Landlord may acquire such insurance, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of the premium applicable thereto within five (5) days following Notice from Landlord.
Neither the insurance requirements set forth in the Lease nor the Landlord’s review and approval of any insurer or insurance policy shall be deemed to limit the Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or the Tenant’s underlying liability in any manner. The insurance requirements herein merely prescribe the minimum amounts and forms of insurance coverage that the Tenant and their contractors are required to carry. Any failure by the Landlord to enforce in a timely manner any of the provisions of the Lease shall not act as a waiver to enforcement of any of such provisions at a later date.
Section 8.06. | Increase in Insurance Premiums. |
Tenant shall not keep or do anything in the Leased Premises, the Building, or the Common Areas (including, without limitation, the Parking Garage) that will: (i) cause an increase in the rate of any insurance on the Building and/or Project; (ii) violate the terms of any insurance coverage on the Building or Project carried by Landlord or any other tenant; (iii) prevent Landlord from obtaining such policies of insurance acceptable to Landlord or any Mortgagee of the Building; or (iv) violate the rules, regulations or recommendations of Landlord’s insurers, loss prevention consultants, safety engineers, the National Fire Protection Association, or any similar body having jurisdiction over the Leased Premises. If Tenant does so, and Tenant does not correct the relevant condition within thirty (30) days after Notice, Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the amount of any increase in any such insurance premium. In determining the cause of any increase in insurance premiums, the schedule or rate of the organization issuing the insurance or rating procedures shall be conclusive evidence of the items and charges which comprise the insurance rates and premiums on such property.
Section 8.07. | Waiver of Right of Recovery. |
Except for the indemnification for Hazardous Substances as set forth in Section 17.22, neither Landlord nor Tenant shall be liable to the other party or to any insurance company (by way of subrogation or otherwise) insuring such other party for loss or damage to any building, structure or other tangible property, or any resulting loss of income, or losses under worker’s compensation laws or benefits, even though such loss or damage might have been occasioned by the negligence of Landlord or Tenant, or their respective managing agents or employees; provided, however, the mutual release contained herein shall not apply to damage to property or loss of income caused by the willful misconduct of such other party. This Section 8.07 shall not limit or supersede the indemnification to third parties as provided in Section 8.01. The provisions of this Section 8.07 shall apply to any Transferee pursuant to Article XV of this Lease, and the Transferee shall expressly agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 8.07 (as if such Transferee were Tenant hereunder) for the benefit of Landlord.
Section 8.08. | Landlord’s Insurance. |
All insurance maintained by Landlord shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under Landlord’s sole control. Landlord shall maintain throughout the Term (i) “all risk” or “special causes of loss form” property insurance including, at Landlord’s election, standard earthquake and flood insurance, insuring the structural components of the Building and the Project, to the extent of at least eighty percent (80%) of the full replacement value of such Building (excluding the Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements and Specialized Leasehold Improvements), provided if any coverage that is not permitted to be maintained by Landlord hereunder would cause Operating Costs to increase by a material amount, then such coverage may only be added to Operating Costs if such coverage is either (a) maintained by a majority of landlords in Northern California of projects similar to the Project, as reasonably documented by Landlord, or (b) required by Landlord’s then-Mortgagee; and (ii) Commercial General
18
Liability Insurance (ISO form or equivalent) covering Landlord’s activities in and about the Project. Provided the insurance coverage carried by Landlord pursuant to (i) above shall not be reduced or otherwise adversely affected, all of Landlord’s insurance may be carried under a blanket policy covering the Project and any other property owned, leased or operated by Landlord or its affiliates, provided the insurance requirements in this Lease are fulfilled and the insurance coverage is not diminished in any way. The cost of all such insurance is included in Operating Costs. Landlord shall not be obligated to insure, and shall have no responsibility whatsoever for any damage to, the Tenant Work, any Leasehold Improvements, Specialized Leasehold Improvements or Tenant’s Property that Tenant may make, keep or maintain in the Leased Premises during the Term.
ARTICLE IX
CONSTRUCTION AND ALTERATIONS
Section 9.01. | Condition of Leased Premises Upon Delivery. |
Tenant agrees to accept possession of the Leased Premises upon Substantial Completion thereof, subject only to Landlord’s express representations and warranties set forth in this Section 9.01. Except for Landlord’s express representations and warranties contained in this Lease, neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Leased Premises, the Building, or the Project, the suitability of the Leased Premises for Tenant’s use, or the identity of other tenants or potential tenants of the Project. Landlord represents and warrants that, to Landlord’s actual knowledge, as of the date of execution of this Lease, upon completion of the Landlord Work (a) the Building will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, including, but not limited to, the Americans With Disability Act and Title 24 (as such laws are applied and interpreted by the applicable governmental authorities or quasi-governmental authorities as of the date of this Lease) applicable to the condition in which the Building is being delivered, without regard to any specific use of the Leased Premises or the improvements to be installed by Tenant, (b) the Landlord Work (including, without limitation, the heating, ventilating and air conditioning system and equipment, the roof, the plumbing, electrical, and other mechanical systems (collectively, the “Building Systems”)) shall have been constructed in substantial conformity with Exhibit B and the Building Plans and Specifications attached thereto, and (c) the Landlord Work and the Condenser Water System shall be in an good working order and repair. If (x) as of the Term Commencement Date the Building does not comply in all material respects with laws applicable to the condition thereof, or (y) the Building was not constructed in substantial conformity with Exhibit B and the Building Plans and Specifications attached thereto, or the Landlord Work or the Condenser Water System are not in a good working order and repair, on or before the first anniversary of Substantial Completion, then Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any damages, but as Tenant’s sole remedy, Landlord, at no cost to Tenant (and not charged as Operating Costs), shall perform such corrective work or take such other actions as may be necessary to cure any violation of law, cure any substantial deviation from Exhibit B and the Building Plans and Specifications, or place the Landlord Work or Condenser Water System in good working order and repair. Landlord shall not be responsible for any condition that arises due to the construction of any of the Tenant Work, the construction of any other modifications, alterations and/or improvements or the installation of any of Tenant’s furniture, fixtures, equipment or property, or that are due to Tenant’s particular use of the Leased Premises or the particular manner in which Tenant conducts its business in the Leased Premises. Landlord shall have the right to apply for and obtain a waiver or deferment of compliance, the right to contest any violation in good faith, including, but not limited to, the right to assert any and all defenses allowed by applicable laws, and the right to appeal any decisions, judgments or rulings to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, and Landlord’s obligation to perform corrective work or take other action to cure a violation under this Section 9.01 shall not apply until after the exhaustion of any and all rights to appeal or contest, provided no such contest may materially, adversely affect Tenant’s ability to use and operate any portion of the Leased Premises during the progress of any such contest, or result in the expiration of the Landlord Warranty Period so long as Notice of the initial claim is given to Landlord during the Landlord Warranty Period. If Tenant does not notify Landlord in writing on or before the Term Commencement Date, of any violation or alleged violation of the representations and warranties in subsection (a) above, then the such representations and warranties shall conclusively be deemed to be true and correct, and Landlord shall thereafter have no further liability or responsibility pursuant to this Section 9.01 with respect thereto. Further, if Tenant does not notify Landlord in writing of a breach of the representation and warranty in subclause (b), above, on or before the earlier of (1) ten (10) Business Days after Tenant’s discovery of such breach, or (2) the first (1st) anniversary of Substantial Completion, then such representation and warranty shall be deemed to be true and correct, and Landlord shall thereafter have no further liability or responsibility pursuant to this Section 9.01 with respect thereto. Finally, if Tenant does not notify Landlord in writing on or before the first (1st) anniversary of Substantial Completion (the period of time from Substantial Completion to the first (1st) anniversary thereof being referred to herein as the “Landlord Warranty Period”) of any violation of the representation and warranty in subsections (b) or (c), above (or, in the case of subclause (b), above, such earlier time as set forth above), then Landlord shall not be responsible for correcting such condition pursuant to this Section 9.01 but rather such condition shall be corrected as otherwise provided in the Lease and the cost of performing such correction shall be included in Operating Costs, to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 6.03.C or performed by Tenant as required under Section 10.02. Nothing in the foregoing
19
disclaimer will be deemed to affect or impair the obligation of Landlord to maintain those portions of the Building that Landlord is required to maintain under Section 10.01 hereof, including, without limitation, the elevators.
Section 9.02. | Tenant Improvements. |
Landlord and Tenant, at their respective sole cost and expense, agree to provide all improvements to the Building and Leased Premises in accordance with their respective obligations set forth in Exhibit B.
Section 9.03. | Alterations. |
Tenant shall not make or cause to be made any alterations, additions, renovations, improvements or installations in or to the Leased Premises (“Alterations”) without Landlord’s prior consent, which such consent may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, unless expressly provided herein to the contrary. Tenant shall in no event make or permit to be made any Alterations that affect (i) any of the Building Systems, (ii) the structural components of the Building including, without limitation, the roof, (iii) the exterior appearance of the Building, or (iv) the Parking Garage (collectively, the “Restricted Alterations”), without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may make cosmetic Alterations within the Leased Premises that are not otherwise Restricted Alterations that cost up to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) in the aggregate annually as long as such cosmetic Alterations comply with laws, are consistent in appearance with the Operating Standard and such Alterations are removed, and any damage to the Leased Premises repaired as required hereunder, prior to the expiration of the Term; provided, however, that such repair and restoration obligation shall not apply to paint or carpet. If Landlord consents to any such alterations, additions, renovations, improvements or installations by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right (but not the obligation) in its sole discretion to manage or supervise such work and Tenant shall pay to Landlord a reasonable fee to reimburse Landlord for overhead and administrative costs and expenses incurred in connection with the management or supervision of such work by Landlord, not to exceed three percent (3%) of the hard costs of construction of any such Alterations.
Section 9.04. | Work Requirements. |
All Alterations performed by Tenant in the Leased Premises shall be performed (i) promptly and in a workmanlike manner with first-class materials; (ii) by duly qualified or licensed Persons; (iii) without unreasonable interference with, or disruption to, the operations of Landlord or other tenants or occupants of the Building; and (iv) in accordance with (a) plans and specifications approved in writing in advance by Landlord (as to both design and materials) which such approval may be granted or withheld in Landlord’s reasonable discretion, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.03 above, and (b) all applicable governmental permits, rules and regulations.
Section 9.05. | Ownership of Improvements. |
All present and future Alterations and Specialized Leasehold Improvements made by Tenant (collectively the “Leasehold Improvements”), that are accepted by Landlord in accordance herewith, shall become property of Landlord upon Tenant’s vacation or abandonment of the Leased Premises, unless Landlord directs otherwise, shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Leased Premises in good order, condition and repair; provided, however, in no event shall Landlord require Tenant to remove any Leasehold Improvements or Tenant’s Work unless the same are Specialized Leasehold Improvements. For purposes of this Lease, “Specialized Leasehold Improvements” shall mean Leasehold Improvements that are not reasonably reusable by, and have insubstantial utility for, future office tenants of the type that are typically found in Silicon Valley (but not factoring in Tenant as “typical”) as reasonably determined by Landlord; provided, however, that in all events the following shall constitute Specialized Leasehold Improvements: cafeterias, interior staircases, vaults, raised floor systems, roll-up doors, generators, rack systems, all Tenant Lines, Rooftop Installations, and Rooftop Equipment (each as defined below); provided, further, however, that the foregoing shall not constitute Landlord’s consent to the installation of any of the foregoing. If Tenant installs one or more interior staircases in the Leased Premises, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s obligation hereunder shall be limited to the removal of such interior staircase(s) and the replacement thereof with a floor with a structural integrity equivalent to that which existed as of Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work. At the time of Tenant’s request for Landlord’s approval of any Leasehold Improvements requiring Landlord’s consent, if Tenant includes a request that Landlord identify any Specialized Leasehold Improvements that Landlord intends to require Tenant to remove at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, then if and to the extent that Landlord approves any Specialized Leasehold Improvements, Landlord shall, simultaneous with its approval thereof, identify in writing to Tenant which of such Specialized Leasehold Improvements Tenant is required to remove at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, if any, and Landlord shall not thereafter require Tenant to remove any such Specialized Leasehold Improvements that were not so identified by Landlord for removal. All movable goods, inventory, office furniture, equipment, trade fixtures, signs, Tenant Lines, Rooftop Installations, Rooftop Equipment and other movable personal property belonging to Tenant that are not permanently affixed to the Leased Premises, shall remain Tenant’s property (“Tenant’s Property”) and shall be removable by Tenant at any time, provided that Tenant repairs any damage to the Leased Premises or the Building caused by the removal of any of Tenant’s Property.
20
Section 9.06. | Removal of Tenant’s Property. |
Tenant shall remove all of Tenant’s Property (and any Leasehold Improvements as Landlord may direct, consistent with Section 9.05, above) prior to the Termination Date or the termination of Tenant’s right to possession. Tenant shall repair any damage to the remaining Leasehold Improvements, the Leased Premises or any other portion of the Building caused by such removal to a condition reasonably comparable to the condition delivered or the initial condition of the Leasehold Improvements, as applicable, reasonable wear and tear and damage by casualty to be repaired by Landlord excepted. If Tenant fails to timely remove said items, they shall be considered as abandoned and shall become the property of Landlord, or Landlord may remove and dispose of them.
Section 9.07. | Mechanic’s Liens. |
No mechanic’s or other lien shall be allowed against the Building as a result of Tenant’s improvements to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall give Landlord Notice not less than thirty (30) days prior to commencement of any work in, on or about the Leased Premises, and Landlord shall have the right to record and post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Leased Premises. Tenant shall promptly pay all Persons furnishing labor, materials or services with respect to any work performed by Tenant on the Leased Premises. If any mechanic’s or other lien shall be filed against the Leased Premises or the Building by reason of work, labor, services or materials performed or furnished, or alleged to have been performed or furnished, to or for the benefit of Tenant, Tenant shall cause the same to be discharged of record or bonded in the manner required by statute to remove the effect of the relevant lien within ten (10) days subsequent to Notice by Landlord. If Tenant fails to discharge or bond any such lien, Landlord, in addition to all other rights or remedies provided in this Lease, may bond said lien or claim (or payoff said lien or claim if it cannot with reasonable effort be bonded) without inquiring into the validity thereof and all expenses incurred by Landlord in so discharging said lien, including reasonable attorney’s fees, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord as Additional Rent on ten (10) Business Days demand.
Section 9.08. | Cabling; Rooftop Installations. |
A. All voice, data, video, audio and other low voltage control transport system cabling and/or cable bundles (“Tenant Lines”) installed in the Building by Tenant or its contractor shall be (i) plenum rated and/or have a composition makeup suited for its environmental use in accordance with NFPA 70/National Electrical Code; (ii) reasonably identifiable as Tenant Lines; (iii) installed in accordance with all EIA/TIA standards and the National Electric Code; and (iv) installed and routed in accordance with a routing plan showing “as built” or “as installed” configurations of cable pathways, outlet identification numbers, locations of all wall, ceiling and floor penetrations, riser cable routing and conduit routing (if applicable), and such other information as Landlord may request. The routing plan shall be available to Landlord and its agents at the Leased Premises upon request. Upon Landlord’s written request and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, Tenant shall cause all Tenant Lines (or such Tenant Lines as Landlord shall request) to be removed at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease; provided, however, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, shall have the right within ten (10) Business Days following Notice, to cause such Tenant Lines to be removed by Landlord’s contractors at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, and in such event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord (within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written demand) for all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, as reasonably demonstrated by Landlord (which obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease). Tenant and its telecommunications companies, including local exchange telecommunications companies and alternative access vendor services companies, shall have no right of access to and within the Building (including the roof of the Building), for the installation and operation of telecommunications systems, including voice, video, data, Internet, and any other services provided over wire, fiber optic, microwave, wireless, and any other transmission systems (“Telecommunications Services”), for part or all of Tenant’s telecommunications within the Building and from the Building to any other location without Landlord’s prior written consent, not be unreasonably withheld, provided in all cases such providers will have access to the Minimum Point of Entry (“MPOE”) of the Building for the purposes of initiating such service. All providers of Telecommunications Services must be on the then-current pre-approved list for the Project, if any, which Landlord shall provide upon request by Tenant, or shall be approved by Landlord in advance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld if Tenant selects a national provider of such services, and shall be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the Building, all applicable statutes, laws, rules, orders, regulations and ordinances, and Landlord’s reasonable, nondiscriminatory policies and practices for the Building. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be required to provide or arrange for any Telecommunications Services and that Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant in connection with the installation, operation or maintenance of Telecommunications Services or any equipment or facilities relating thereto, subject to the indemnity provision hereof. Tenant, at its cost and for its own account, shall be solely responsible for obtaining all Telecommunications Services.
B. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease including, without limitation, the Rooftop Rules and Regulations (as defined below), Tenant may during the Term, at no additional charge to Tenant, install, operate, maintain and repair on a location of the roof of the Building designated by Landlord, solely in connection with the conduct of Tenant’s business in the Leased Premises, the Rooftop Equipment (as defined below) (collectively,
21
“Rooftop Installations”). All costs associated with the design, fabrication, engineering, permitting, installation, screening, maintenance, repair, operation, use and removal of the Rooftop Installations shall be borne solely by Tenant except to the extent that the Rooftop Installations are part of the Tenant Work and are paid for out of the Tenant Work Allowance. For purposes of this Lease, “Rooftop Equipment” shall mean (i) telecommunications antennae, microwave dishes and other communications and information technology equipment to serve Tenant’s business in the Leased Premises, (ii) connections for such equipment for electrical wiring to the Building’s existing electrical supply and cable (including the Tenant Lines) or similar connections necessary to connect the Rooftop Equipment with Tenant’s related equipment located in the Leased Premises.
C. The routes or paths for such wiring and connections (including the Tenant Lines) shall be through the Building’s risers, plenums, conduits and shafts, subject to reasonable space limitations and Landlord’s reasonable requirements for use of such areas, and in all events subject to Landlord’s approval of plans and installation pursuant to other provisions of this Lease (such routes or paths are collectively referred to herein as “Cable Paths” and all such electrical and other connections, including the Tenant Lines, are collectively referred to herein as “Connections”) with respect to any Rooftop Installations installed after the Tenant Work is completed. If the Rooftop Equipment or other Rooftop Installations or Connections, or any part thereof, constitute part of the Tenant Work, then Landlord’s approvals or disapprovals above shall be given by Landlord in connection with, and subject to the time periods governing, its approval or disapproval of the Construction Drawings pursuant to the Work Agreement.
D. Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, Tenant shall install, maintain, use and operate its Rooftop Equipment in compliance with all applicable statutes, laws, rules, orders, regulations and ordinances and the Rooftop Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Exhibit E, and shall not interfere with or otherwise impair the use and operation of any of the following that is operating within the manufacturer’s specifications therefor or any license granted in connection therewith: (i) television or radio equipment in or about the Project; (ii) transmitting, receiving or master television, telecommunications or microwave antennae equipment located in any portion of the Project; or (iii) radio communication system located on any portion of the Project.
E. If roof repairs and/or roof replacements to the Building (the “Roof Repairs”) are reasonably necessary at any time, and such roof repairs are conducted by Landlord, Landlord shall give Tenant at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior Notice of the date Landlord intends to commence such Roof Repairs (except that no prior Notice shall be required in the event of an emergency), along with a description of the work scheduled to be performed, where it is scheduled to be performed on the roof, and an estimate of the time frame required for that performance. Tenant shall, at its sole expense, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such Notice, remove or relocate the Rooftop Installations on a temporary basis if Landlord reasonably determines such removal of relocation is reasonably necessary or appropriate for the expeditious performance of any Roof Repairs, provided Landlord and Tenant will reasonably cooperate to minimize any interference in service from Rooftop Equipment cause by such relocation or repairs.
F. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 9.08 or elsewhere in this Lease, if at any time during the Lease Term, the Building shall become a multi-tenant Building due to the termination of this Lease as to part of the Building, then Tenant shall only be entitled to use its proportionate share of the roof area of the Building designated by Landlord for the installation of such type of equipment, calculated based on the total number of square feet available on the roof for the installation of such equipment, and the proportion of the Floor Area of the remaining Leased Premises to the total Floor Area available for lease in the Building. Subject to capacity and other provision set forth above, Landlord will reasonably cooperate with Tenant to provide for the installation of Rooftop Equipment by Tenant’s sublesees.
ARTICLE X
REPAIRS, MAINTENANCE, AND LANDLORD’S ACCESS
Section 10.01. | Repairs by Landlord. |
Subject to the terms of this Lease, Landlord agrees to maintain the roof, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls (including the glazing), the elevators in the Building and the structural portions of the Building and the Condenser Water System in good order, condition and repair. The costs incurred by Landlord to perform such repairs, maintenance and replacements shall constitute Operating Costs and shall be reimbursed to Landlord in accordance with Article VI above, subject to the exclusions and limitations therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such repairs, maintenance or replacements are necessitated by Tenant’s default under this Lease, or by any act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, assigns, concessionaires, contractors, subcontractors or invitees, Tenant shall reimburse to Landlord the reasonable cost incurred in completing such repairs within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, which demand will be accompanied by a reasonable itemization and invoices to evidence the relevant charges.
22
Section 10.02. | Repairs and Maintenance by Tenant; Janitorial; Tenant Capital Repairs. |
A. Except for the performance of repairs and maintenance that are expressly the responsibility of Landlord under Section 9.01 above, Tenant shall at all times during the Term at Tenant’s sole cost and expense maintain the Building (including, without limitation, the Locker Room and the Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) in a first-class, good, clean, and secure condition and promptly make all necessary repairs and replacements, as reasonably determined by Landlord, with materials and workmanship of the same character, kind and quality as the original (provided Tenant will not be required to correct defects in the Landlord’s Work during the Warranty Period to the extent such defects are required to be corrected by Landlord under Section 9.01, above), including, without limitation, the following: (a) interior glass, windows, window frames, window casements (including the repairing, resealing, cleaning and replacing of such interior windows); (b) interior and exterior doors, door frames and door closers; (c) interior lighting (including, without limitation, light bulbs and ballasts); (d) the Building Systems including, without limitation, the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing, sewer, drainage, electrical, fire protection, elevator, life safety and security systems and equipment and other mechanical, electrical and communications systems and equipment and any specialty or supplemental Building Systems installed by or for Tenant), but in no event (i) any elevators which shall be the responsibility of Landlord, and not Tenant to repair and maintain; (ii) the Retail Area or any facilities or systems serving the Retail Area; or (iii) the Condenser Water System, maintenance and repair of which will be Landlord’s responsibility; (e) all of Tenant’s security systems in or about or serving the Premises; (f) Tenant’s signage; and (g) interior demising walls and partitions (including painting and wall coverings), equipment, floors, and any roll-up doors, ramps and dock equipment. Tenant shall cause such repairs to be performed with reasonable commercial diligence and in a good and workmanlike manner and/or request that Landlord make such repairs in accordance with this Lease, even if located outside the Building, provided Tenant is granted a license over the Common Areas for the purposes of making any such repairs. Tenant’s obligations hereunder includes replacements that constitute capital improvements and/or capital expenditures, but subject to the provisions hereof regarding amortization of certain capital expenses. Without limiting the foregoing, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, procure and maintain contracts, with copies to Landlord, in customary form and substance for and with licensed, bondable contractors reasonably acceptable to Landlord specializing and experienced in (i) the inspection, maintenance and service of the Building Systems that the Tenant is responsible to repair hereunder; (ii) the inspection, maintenance and service of the fire, life safety and security systems within the Building; (iii) pest control for the Building; and (iv) exterior and interior window washing for the Building. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord copies of all reports related to such maintenance contracts thereafter received by Tenant, including maintenance reports, monitoring reports and testing reports, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt. Further, Tenant shall be responsible for providing janitorial service on each Business Day to the Operating Standard. In furtherance of the foregoing, Tenant shall have the right to contract directly with Landlord’s janitorial contractor (“Landlord’s Janitor”) at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, for the janitorial services to be provided to the Leased Premises; provided, however, if Tenant does not elect to contract directly with Landlord’s Janitor, then Tenant shall engage for the Leased Premises a reputable third party janitorial contractor reasonably satisfactory to Landlord (the “Third Party Janitor”). Tenant agrees that Tenant shall only engage the services of such contractors and subcontractors who will work in harmony with Landlord’s contractors and the contractors employed by the other tenants and occupants of the Project so that there shall be no labor disputes which would interfere with the operation, construction and completion of the Project or with any work being carried out therein.
B. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10.02.A, above, to the contrary, if Tenant is required by the terms of this Lease to make any capital repair or replacement (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) to the Leased Premises or any of the Building Systems (a “Tenant Capital Repair”), then such Tenant Capital Repairs shall be made as follows:
(i) Any Specialized Leasehold Improvements which Landlord designates to be removed from the Premises on or before the Termination Date and Tenant’s Property, any specialized supplementary Building Systems installed by Tenant and any Tenant Capital Repairs necessitated by Tenant’s failure to perform its maintenance and repair obligations hereunder shall be repaired by Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and without amortization as required hereunder.
(ii) If the Tenant Capital Repair shall cost less than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), Tenant shall make such Tenant Capital Repair at its cost subject to the Alterations provisions of this Lease.
(iii) Any Tenant Capital Repairs that are not the responsibility of Tenant under subsection (i) hereof and are not made by Tenant as provided in subsection (ii) above, shall be made by Tenant (unless Landlord elects otherwise pursuant to the terms hereof) and subject to the Tenant Capital Repair Amortization. If Landlord elects to make any such Tenant Capital Repairs, then such Tenant Capital repairs will be initiated and completed promptly after Tenant provides Notice and in accordance with the terms hereof.
(iv) Prior to engaging a contractor to perform any Tenant Capital Repairs, Tenant shall provide Landlord with Notice thereof, describing the scope of the proposed Tenant Capital Repairs, and the estimated cost thereof, and
23
Landlord shall, within ten (10) Business Days of Landlord’s receipt of such Notice, advise Tenant if Landlord objects to the scope or cost estimate or if Landlord elects to complete such Tenant Capital Repair; provided, however, that if Landlord fails to respond within such ten (10) Business Day period, then Landlord shall be deemed to have objected to the proposed Tenant Capital Repair. If Landlord approves the Tenant Capital Repair but fails to expressly state in writing that it elects to complete such Tenant Capital Repair, then Landlord will be deemed to have elected not to complete the Tenant Capital Repair, in which case Tenant shall complete such Tenant Capital Repair. Within ten (10) Business Days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s objection, each of Landlord and Tenant shall appoint a technical expert qualified to give an opinion with respect to the necessity of the Tenant Capital Repair, the pros and cons of repairing versus replacing the system at issue, the estimated useful life of the Tenant Capital Repair, the reasonableness of the cost estimate and whether or not such Tenant Capital Repair is covered by Landlord’s limited warranty under Section 9.01, above. If the two (2) technical experts are unable to agree on a joint recommendation to Landlord and Tenant with respect to such Tenant Capital Repair within ten (10) Business Days of the appointment of the second technical expert, then the two (2) technical experts shall appoint a third technical expert with the same qualifications within ten (10) Business Days of the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period. The third technical expert shall render his or her decision on all contested issues within ten (10) Business Days of his or her appointment and the opinion of the third technical expert shall be final and binding on the parties. If the foregoing procedure results in a determination that the Tenant Capital Repair is necessary and that its cost estimate is reasonable and the Tenant Capital Repair is not covered by Landlord’s limited warranty under Section 9.01 hereof, then the cost of such Tenant Capital Repair shall be paid in accordance with Section 10.02.B(v), below, and treated as set forth in Section 10.02.B.(vi), below. Alternatively, if the foregoing procedure results in a determination that all or a portion of the Tenant Capital Repair is either unnecessary or that its cost estimate is unreasonable and is not covered by Landlord’s limited warranty under Section 9.01, then, if Tenant elects to proceed with such Tenant Capital Repair, the cost of such Tenant Capital Repair that is necessary or reasonable shall be paid by Landlord pursuant to Section 10.02.B.(v), below and treated as set forth in Section 10.02.B.(vi), below, and Tenant shall solely bear the portion of the cost of such Tenant Capital Repair that is found to be unnecessary or unreasonable without reimbursement from Landlord.
(v) Subject to subsections (i), (ii) and the last sentence of subsection (iv), above, if either Tenant or Landlord elect to make a Tenant Capital Repair, then Landlord shall (subject to the terms set forth in Section 10.02.B.2(vi), below) pay for the cost thereof. If Tenant pays the cost, such cost shall be reimbursed to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant presents Landlord with copies of paid invoices covering the costs approved pursuant to subsection (iv), above, together with lien waivers reasonably satisfactory to Landlord from contractors and subcontractors performing the work and copies of any warranties, indemnities or guaranties provided in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time Landlord is obligated to reimburse Tenant for any amounts under this subsection Tenant is in monetary Default of this Lease, then Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to offset such past due amounts against any amounts otherwise due and payable hereunder.
(vi) If Landlord pays for a Tenant Capital Repair, the cost of such repair shall be amortized over the useful life of the relevant repair as reasonably determined by Landlord in accordance with industry practices together with interest at a rate per annum equal to the actual rate of interest paid by Landlord on funds borrowed for the purpose of paying for such Tenant Capital Repair; provided, however, that if Landlord does not borrow funds for the payment thereof, then interest at the Imputed Interest Rate (“Tenant Capital Repair Amortization”). The portion of the Tenant Capital Repair Amortization attributable to the Term, shall be payable by Tenant as Additional Rent, in monthly installments over the Term, including any extensions thereof.
Section 10.03. | Inspections, Access and Emergency Repairs by Landlord. |
Upon reasonable prior notice (not less than one (1) Business Day) and without materially adversely affecting Tenant’s business within the Leased Premises, Tenant shall permit Landlord to enter all parts of the Leased Premises to inspect the same and to perform its obligations under this Lease, provided no such entry will unreasonably interfere with access to, or use of the Leased Premises. In the event of an Emergency, Landlord may enter the Leased Premises at any time and make such inspection and repairs as Landlord deems necessary, at the risk and for the account of Tenant.
Section 10.04. | California Accessibility Compliance. |
Landlord hereby notifies Tenant that, as of the date of this Lease, the property being leased hereunder has not been constructed and therefore has not been inspected by a Certified Access Specialist (as that term is defined in California Civil Code Section 55.52) and, therefore, Tenant waives any and all rights it may have under Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, as such code section may be amended from time to time, and any successor statutes and similar applicable laws, now or hereafter in effect.
ARTICLE XI
CASUALTY
24
Section 11.01. | Fire or Other Casualty. |
Tenant shall give prompt Notice to Landlord in case of fire or other casualty (“Casualty”) to the Leased Premises or the Building.
Section 11.02. | Right to Terminate. |
G. If (i) the Leased Premises (other than the Locker Room and/or Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) and/or Building are damaged to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or more of the cost of replacement thereof (i.e., more than fifty percent (50%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises immediately before such Casualty is rendered untenantable) and Landlord determines that such damage cannot be repaired to the condition required hereunder within two hundred seventy (270) days from the date of such occurrence; (ii) during the last two (2) Lease Years or in any Partial Lease Year at the end of the Term, the Leased Premises are damaged to the extent of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the cost of replacement thereof; then (x) Landlord may terminate this Lease by Notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty, subject to Tenant’s rights hereunder to negate such Notice, provided Landlord’s Notice will include reasonable substantiation of Landlord’s cost of repair and the time required to repair. If Landlord so terminates this Lease and Tenant does not negate Landlord’s Notice as provided herein, then the Termination Date shall be the date set forth in the Notice to Tenant, which date shall not be more than ninety (90) days after the giving of said Notice. The “cost of replacement” shall be determined by the company or companies insuring Landlord against the Casualty, or, if there shall be no such determination, by a qualified Person selected by Landlord to determine such “cost of replacement.”
H. If during the last two (2) Lease Years or in any Partial Lease Year at the end of the Term either (i) the Leased Premises (other than the Locker Room and Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) are damaged to the extent of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the cost of replacement thereof, or (ii) more than fifty percent (50%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises (other than the Locker Room and Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) immediately before such Casualty is rendered untenantable and Landlord determines that such damage cannot be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such occurrence, Tenant may, notwithstanding any right Landlord may have hereunder to elect that this Lease continue, terminate this Lease by giving Landlord sixty (60) days’ prior Notice given within sixty (60) days after the date of the Casualty.
Section 11.03. | Landlord’s Duty to Reconstruct. |
Landlord shall repair the Leased Premises (excluding Tenant’s Property and the Leasehold Improvements and Tenant’s Work, which shall be Tenant’s obligation to repair, restore or replace) to a substantially similar condition as existed prior to the Casualty except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other applicable laws, codes, regulations and ordinances that do not materially reduce Floor Area. Unless this Lease is terminated as provided in this Article XI, Landlord shall to the extent the insurance proceeds are received by Landlord therefor (or would have been available to Landlord had Landlord carried the insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Lease and complied with the terms thereof), proceed with reasonable diligence and promptness, given the nature of the damage to be repaired, to effect the Landlord’s restoration work, all subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustments, zoning laws, building codes, and other applicable laws, codes, regulations and ordinances then in effect, Tenant Delays and Force Majeure. Under no circumstance shall Landlord’s restoration work include repairs and restoration of the Tenant Work, any subsequent Leasehold Improvements or Tenant’s Property. Unless this Lease is terminated as provided in this Article XI, if and to the extent that any damaged Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements, or Tenant’s Property must be removed in order for Landlord to prosecute Landlord’s restoration work or to eliminate any hazard or nuisance resulting from such damaged Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements or Tenant’s Property then, after Landlord gives Tenant access for that purpose, Tenant shall proceed with reasonable diligence, given the nature of the work, to remove such damaged Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements and/or Tenant’s Property in accordance with applicable laws, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustments and Force Majeure, unless removal is covered by Landlord’s insurance if Landlord removes such items, in which case Landlord shall remove such items.
Section 11.04. | Tenant’s Duty to Reconstruct. |
Unless this Lease is terminated as provided in this Article XI, in the event of a Casualty, Tenant shall, to the extent that insurance proceeds are available to Tenant therefor (or would have been available to Tenant had Tenant carried the insurance required to be carried pursuant to this Lease and complied with the terms thereof) restore the Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements, and Tenant’s Property to substantially the same condition existing prior to the Casualty except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other applicable laws, codes, regulations and ordinances. Tenant shall proceed with reasonable diligence, given the nature of the work, to effect such restoration in a good and workmanlike manner and in accordance with applicable laws, subject to Force Majeure. If this Lease is terminated as provided in this Article XI, Tenant, no later than the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, shall remove the damaged Tenant Work, Leasehold Improvements, and Tenant’s Property unless the Building is to be razed and/or demolished, in which case Tenant shall have no obligation to remove any such improvements or personal property.
25
Section 11.05. | Insurance Proceeds. |
In the event of any damage to the Leased Premises or the Building (or any equipment, furniture, furnishings, trade fixtures or personal property therein) from any Casualty, Landlord shall be entitled to the full proceeds of any insurance coverage carried by Landlord in connection with such loss or damage, and Tenant shall be entitled to the full proceeds of any insurance coverage carried by Tenant in connection with such loss or damage; provided, however, in the event Tenant shall exercise any right to terminate this Lease as a result of a Casualty in accordance with this Article XI, then Tenant shall have the obligation to remit to Landlord, from (and to the extent of) the proceeds of any of Tenant’s insurance covering same, an amount equal to the unamortized cost of the Tenant Work (or other allowances afforded Tenant by Landlord hereunder with respect to construction of improvements to any portion of the damaged Leased Premises) if Landlord advises Tenant that Landlord intends in good faith to restore the Building to substantially the condition and substantially the same use existing prior to such loss or damage.
Section 11.06. | Landlord Not Liable For Business Interrupt. |
Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall not be liable for any loss of business, inconvenience or annoyance arising from any repair, restoration or rehabilitation of any portion of the Leased Premises or the Building as a result of any damage from a Casualty; provided that the foregoing shall not be deemed to excuse or otherwise modify Landlord’s continuing obligation to perform Landlord’s restoration work, all as and to the extent otherwise provided in this Article XI, nor impair Tenant’s right to abatement of Rent as provided herein.
Section 11.07. | Rent Abatement. |
Whether or not Landlord or Tenant elect to terminate this Lease under this Article XI, while this Lease shall remain in full force after a Casualty, Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction of Minimum Rent and Tenant’s Share of Operating Costs and Taxes in proportion that the Floor Area of the Leased Premises not actually used by Tenant in good faith after the Casualty bears to the total Floor Area of the Lease Premises, during the period beginning with the date such Floor Area becomes untenantable and Tenant ceases to use such Floor Area for the normal conduct of its business and ending either thirty (30) days after substantial completion of Landlord’s restoration work or on the effective date of any termination, as applicable. For purposes of this Article XI, the term “Substantial Completion” shall have the same meaning as provided in Exhibit B with respect to substantial completion of the Landlord Work.
Section 11.08. | Casualty Prior To Completion Of Initial Improvements. |
The terms and provisions of this Article XI shall apply to any damage to the Building caused as a result of a Casualty, regardless of whether such damage occurs prior to or after the Term Commencement Date
Section 11.09. | Election of Tenant to Complete Repairs. |
In the event that Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease in accordance with the provisions hereof, or shall undertake a restoration of the Leased Premises, but shall fail to complete the same within the two hundred seventy (270) day period provided herein, Tenant may provide Notice to Landlord, within thirty (30) days after any termination Notice, or the expiration of the relevant period, whereby Tenant may elect to undertake the relevant restoration. Tenant shall include with its Notice, evidence that it has sufficient funds, together with any funds to be provided by Landlord from the undisbursed proceeds of its insurance available for such restoration, to complete such restoration. If Tenant undertakes such restoration, Landlord shall assign and make available to Tenant the insurance proceeds paid to Landlord on account of such casualty, which shall be disbursed in accordance with the requirements of any lender to Landlord, or, if Landlord does not have a lender, commercially reasonable construction disbursement procedures. If Tenant undertakes such restoration, Rent shall be abated in accordance with Section 11.07, Tenant shall be subject to the approval requirement for Alterations to the extent that it shall elect to restore the Building in any manner that is at variance with the Building Plans, Tenant’s Work and/or any approved Leasehold Improvements, and Tenant shall, throughout the period of reconstruction, diligently pursues such reconstruction to completion subject to Landlord Delay and Force Majeure.
Section 11.10. | Waiver. |
This Article XI shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of damage or destruction to the Leased Premises or the Building. As a material inducement to Landlord entering into this Lease, Tenant hereby waives any rights it may have under Sections 1932, 1933(4), 1941 or 1942 of the Civil Code of California with respect to any destruction of the Leased Premises, Landlord’s obligation for tenantability of the Leased Premises and Tenant’s right to make repairs and deduct the expenses of such repairs, or under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.
ARTICLE XII
CONDEMNATION
26
Section 12.01. | Taking of Leased Premises. |
A. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises (other than the Locker Room or the Exclusive Elevator Lobbies) or if more than 25% of the parking spaces provided to Tenant hereunder shall be appropriated or taken under the power of eminent domain, or conveyance shall be made in anticipation or in lieu thereof and Landlord does not provide reasonably comparable parking (both in number of parking stalls and convenience (it being acknowledged that if the Parking Garage is subject to a Taking, comparably convenient parking may be located in other portions of the Project)) for Tenant’s use (“Taking”), either party may terminate this Lease as of the effective date of the Taking by giving Notice to the other party of such election within thirty (30) days prior to the date of such Taking.
B. If there is a Taking of a portion of the Leased Premises and this Lease is not terminated pursuant to Section 12.01.A, above, then (i) as of the effective date of the Taking, this Lease shall terminate only with respect to the portion of the Leased Premises taken; (ii) after the effective date of the Taking, the Rent shall be reduced by multiplying the same by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Floor Area not useable by Tenant after the Taking and the denominator of which shall be the Floor Area of the Leased Premises immediately prior to the Taking; and (iii) as soon as reasonably possible after the effective date of the Taking, Landlord shall, to the extent feasible, restore the remaining portion of the Leased Premises to a complete unit of a similar condition as existed prior to any work performed by Tenant, provided, however, Landlord shall not be required to expend more on such alteration or restoration work than the condemnation award received and retained by Landlord for the Leased Premises. If the taking affects the parking Landlord will use reasonable measures to provide reasonably comparable (both in number of parking stalls and convenience it being acknowledged that if the Parking Garage is subject to a Taking, comparably convenient parking may be located in other portions of the Project) to substitute for the spaces lost.
Section 12.02. | Taking of Building. |
If there is a Taking of any portion of the Building so as to render, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, the remainder unsuitable for use as an office building, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon thirty (30) days’ Notice to Tenant. Provided Tenant is not then in Default, Tenant shall receive a proportionate refund from Landlord of any Rent paid in advance by Tenant.
Section 12.03. | Condemnation Award. |
All compensation awarded for a Taking of any part of the Leased Premises (including the Leasehold Improvements) or a Taking of any other part of the Building shall belong to Landlord. Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of its right, title and interest in any such award. Tenant shall have the right to collect and pursue any separate award as may be available under local procedure for moving expenses or Tenant’s Property, so long as such award does not reduce the award otherwise belonging to Landlord as aforesaid.
Section 12.04. | Waiver of CCP § 1265.130. |
Each party waives the provisions of California Civil Code Procedure Section 1265.130 allowing either party to petition the superior court to terminate this Lease as a result of a partial taking. The rights contained in this Article XII shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a Taking. Tenant waives the provisions of Sections 1265.130 and 1265.150 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and the provisions of any successor or other law of like import.
ARTICLE XIII
PARKING GARAGE AND PARKING RIGHTS
Section 13.01. | Parking Rights. |
Provided that Tenant or any Permitted Transferee or assignee of Tenant approved by Landlord is leasing the entire Leased Premises and is not in Default under this Lease, Tenant shall have the right to use a total of seven hundred (700) parking spaces which shall include (a) the exclusive right during Business Hours (and the non-exclusive right after Business Hours) to all of the parking spaces in the four level subterranean parking area under the Building (the “Parking Garage”) (which shall consist of approximately six hundred sixty-six (666) Spaces), and (b) the non-exclusive right to use approximately thirty four (34) spaces in the Lot 7 Parking Garage. If Tenant or any Permitted Transferee or assignee of Tenant approved by Landlord no longer leases the entire Leased Premises originally leased hereunder, then the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant shall be proportionately reduced based on a fraction the numerator of which is the Floor Area then leased by Tenant and the denominator of which is the Floor Area of the entire Building. Any reduction in the number of parking spaces allocated to Tenant hereunder pursuant the foregoing shall be proportionately reduced from the Parking Garage and the Lot 7 Parking Garage. The use of the foregoing spaces shall be at no additional charge to Tenant. Such parking spaces shall be used solely for the parking of passenger vehicles by Tenant and its employees, business invitees, and permitted sublessees and assignees hereunder only. Parking spaces may not be assigned or transferred separate and apart from this Lease, or
27
any sublease or license hereunder, and upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant’s rights with respect to all parking spaces shall immediately terminate. Outside of Building Hours, the parking spaces in the Parking Garage shall be available for use, on a non-exclusive, first come/first served basis, by Landlord, Tenant and the customers, patrons, guests and invitees of the Commercial Portion of the Project, but free of charge to Tenant. Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that the thirty four (34) parking spaces in the Lot 7 Parking Garage shall be non-exclusive and first come/first use at all times during the day; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Landlord from granting any tenant or occupant of the Project the exclusive right to any spaces within the Lot 7 Parking Garage so long as if such exclusive rights are granted, Tenant will also be granted similar rights on a “most favored nation” status to the exclusive rights granted to such other party, for Tenant’s thirty four (34) spaces. Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that the designation of any parking spaces within the Lot 7 Parking Garage as “short term parking” or the equivalent shall not constitute the granting of any exclusive parking rights for purposes of Tenant’s right to exclusive parking. Further, throughout the Term, Tenant and its employees, business invitees, and permitted sublessees and assignee shall have the non-exclusive right to use all other parking areas in the Project on a non-exclusive, first come/first use basis subject to payment of any applicable parking charges.
Section 13.02. | Use of Bicycle Lockers and Showers. |
So long as Tenant is leasing the entire Leased Premises, Tenant shall have the exclusive right to use the bicycle lockers and locker room and shower facilities located on the first floor of the Parking Garage (the “Locker Room”) and constructed for Tenant’s use as part of the Landlord Work, and the Exclusive Elevator Lobbies without charge, during the Term. Tenant shall have the same responsibilities with regard to any damage or liability of any kind or for any injury to or death of persons arising in connection with the use of the bicycle lockers and/or on or about the Locker Room and/or the Exclusive Elevator Lobbies that Tenant has pursuant to this Lease in respect of such events occurring within the Leased Premises, and Tenant shall be solely responsible to provide liability insurance and all-risk property insurance coverage relating to the entirety of such areas.
Section 13.03. | Parking Rules and Conditions. |
Use of the Parking Garage, the spaces in the Lot 7 Parking Garage and any other parking facilities of the Project by Tenant, its employees, business invitees, and permitted subleesses and assignees is further subject to the reasonable rules and regulations of Landlord as may be promulgated or amended by Landlord from time to time in Landlord’s reasonable discretion. Landlord shall at all times during the Term of this Lease have in place reasonable policies to prevent the use of the spaces exclusively designated for Tenant’s use in the Parking Garage by other users of the Project, during Building Hours, including without limitation any users of the Residential Portion or other portions of the Project.
ARTICLE XIV
SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT
Section 14.01. | Subordination. |
Tenant’s rights under this Lease are subordinate to (i) all present and future ground or underlying leases affecting all or any part of the Building, and (ii) any easement, license, mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument now or hereafter affecting the Building (those documents referred to in (i) and (ii) above being collectively referred to as a “Mortgage” and the Person or Persons having the benefit of same being collectively referred to as a “Mortgagee”). Tenant’s subordination provided in this Section 14.01 is self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required; provided, however, (x) any such subordination is conditioned on the Mortgagee’s agreement not to disturb Tenant in possession of the Leased Premises after a foreclosure of any Mortgage for so long as there shall be no Default under the Lease and (y) if requested by Tenant, Landlord agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a commercially reasonable subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement from any future Mortgagee recognizing Tenant’s rights under this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord’s inability to obtain such an agreement shall neither constitute a default herein or release Tenant from its obligations hereunder. Landlord represents and warrants that, as of the date of this Lease, the Leased Premises is not encumbered by any Mortgage or other interest superior to that of Tenant, the termination of which could give rise to a termination of the Lease.
Section 14.02. | Attornment. |
If any Person succeeds to all or part of Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises, whether by purchase, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, power of sale, termination of lease or otherwise, Tenant shall, without charge, attorn to such successor-in-interest upon request from Landlord, provided such successor agrees to recognize this Lease for so long as there is no Default hereunder.
Section 14.03. | Estoppel Certificate. |
Each of Landlord and Tenant, within twenty (20) days after receiving Notice from, and without charge or cost to, the other, shall certify by written instrument to the other or any other Person designated by Landlord or
28
Tenant: (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified (or if modified, stating the modification); (ii) the dates, if any, to which each component of the Rent due under this Lease has been paid; (iii) whether Landlord or Tenant has failed to perform any covenant, term or condition under this Lease, and the nature of Landlord’s or Tenant’s failure, if any; and (iv) such other relevant information as Landlord or Tenant may reasonably request.
Section 14.04. | Quiet Enjoyment. |
Landlord covenants that it has full right, power and authority to enter into this Lease and that Tenant, upon performing all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease and timely paying all Rent, shall, subject to the terms of this Lease and all matters of record affecting the Leased Premises, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Leased Premises during the Term without hindrance, ejection or molestation by any Person lawfully claiming by, through or under Landlord.
ARTICLE XV
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Section 15.01. | Landlord’s Consent Required. |
A. Tenant, shall not voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise: (i) transfer, assign, mortgage, encumber, pledge, hypothecate, or assign all or any of its interest in this Lease; (ii) sublet or permit the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, to be used by others, including, but not limited to, concessionaires or licensees; (iii) issue new stock (or partnership shares or membership interests), create additional classes of stock (or partnership shares or membership interests), or sell, assign, hypothecate or otherwise transfer the outstanding voting stock (or partnership shares or membership interests) so as to result in a change in the present control of Tenant, provided, however, that this subsection (iii) shall not be applicable to Tenant so long as it is a publicly owned corporation whose outstanding voting stock is listed on a national securities exchange (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) or is traded actively in the over-the-counter market; without the prior consent of Landlord, in each instance, which consent Landlord may not unreasonably withhold, which reasonableness is subject to the provisions set forth in Section 15.01.D and subject to Section 15.03, below. All of the foregoing transactions shall be referred to collectively or singularly as a “Transfer”, and the Person to whom Tenant’s interest is transferred shall be referred to as a “Transferee”.
B. Any Transfer requiring consent hereunder and made without Landlord’s consent shall not be binding upon Landlord, shall confer no rights upon any third Person, and shall, without Notice or grace period of any kind, constitute an immediate Default by Tenant under this Lease. Acceptance by Landlord of Rent following any Transfer shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to any such Transfer, acceptance of the Transferee as a tenant, release of Tenant from the performance of any covenants herein, or waiver by Landlord of any remedy of Landlord under this Lease, although amounts received shall be credited by Landlord against Tenant’s Rent obligations. Consent by Landlord to any one Transfer shall not be a waiver of the requirement for consent to any other Transfer. No reference in this Lease to assignees, concessionaires, subtenants or licensees shall be deemed to be a consent by Landlord to occupancy of the Leased Premises by any such assignee, concessionaire, subtenant or licensee.
C. Landlord’s consent to any Transfer shall not operate as a waiver of, or release of Tenant from, Tenant’s covenants and obligations hereunder; nor shall the collection or acceptance of Rent or other performance from any Transferee have such effect. Rather, Tenant shall remain fully and primarily liable and obligated under this Lease for the entire Term in the event of any Transfer, and in the event of a Default by the Transferee, Landlord shall be free to pursue Tenant, the Transferee, or both, without prior Notice or demand to either.
D. Landlord reserves the right to withhold its consent to a Transfer if any of the following conditions are applicable and it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to deny such consent if any of the following conditions are applicable:
(i) Tenant is in Default of this Lease;
(ii) The net worth (excluding goodwill) of the Transferee immediately prior to the Transfer is insufficient to fulfill the financial obligations arising under the Lease, as reasonably determined by Landlord, based on financial information provided by Tenant;
(iii) Subject to Section 15.01.G, below, the inability of Transferee to continue to operate the business conducted in the Leased Premises for general office purposes or the other purposes permitted in this Lease; or
(iv) During any period that Tenant does not lease the entire Building, Transferee is an existing tenant in the Building and Landlord has sufficient available space in the portion of the Building not subject to Lease to satisfy such proposed subtenant’s space requirements.
E. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following conditions shall apply to any proposed Transfer:
29
(i) Each and every covenant, condition, or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease and each and every right, remedy, or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease shall not be impaired or diminished as a result of such Transfer.
(ii) Tenant to which the Leased Premises were initially leased shall continue to remain liable under this Lease for the performances of all terms, including, but not limited to, payment of Rent due under this Lease.
(iii) Transferee must expressly assume in a written instrument delivered and reasonably acceptable by Landlord all the obligations of Tenant under the Lease.
(iv) Landlord shall furnish the appropriate documentation in connection with any such Transfer and be entitled to a reasonable administrative fee therefor, as set forth in Section 17.03.
(v) At the time Tenant requests approval of the Transfer, Landlord shall receive the following information in connection with such Transfer: the name of the proposed Transferee, a copy of the financial statement of the proposed Transferee and any guarantor, information regarding the proposed Transferee’s business history and experience and the proposed Transferee’s business plan and projections for the Leased Premises.
(vi) 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. 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 the applicable space in the case of a subletting, or any amount allocated in writing to the value of the leasehold in the Building, in the case of an assignment, and (a) the actual third party brokers’ commissions paid by Tenant, (b) reasonable attorneys’ fees, (c) reasonable tenant improvement costs incurred by Tenant to effect such Transfer; and (d) all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs of such subletting. “Transfer Premium” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money and bonus money paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 15.01.E(vi) shall not apply to, and no Transfer Premium shall be payable in connection with, any Permitted Transfer (as defined below).
Landlord shall approve or disapprove of such proposed Transfer within thirty (30) days following receipt of Tenant’s Notice of its intent to Transfer the Lease together with the required information set forth above, provided Landlord will inform Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of the initial submission if any items required to be submitted hereunder are missing.
F. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Tenant desires to Transfer seventy percent (70%) or more of the Leased Premises in a transaction, where Landlord’s consent is required under the terms of this Article XV, then Landlord shall have the right to recapture the Leased Premises and terminate the Lease by giving Notice of such termination to Tenant within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s Notice of its intent to Transfer, together with the required information as set forth above, is delivered to Landlord. If Landlord gives Tenant such a termination Notice within such thirty (30) days period, then Tenant may rescind its request for a sublease or assignment within five (5) Business Days after Landlord delivers its response and if Tenant does not do so, this Lease shall terminate effective as of the ninetieth (90th) day after Landlord’s termination Notice is received by Tenant. If Landlord does not exercise such right to terminate this Lease, then Tenant’s proposed Transferee shall nonetheless be required to meet the conditions in Sections 15.01.D. and 15.01.E. above. If after any such recapture Tenant shall occupy less than all the Building, this Lease will be amended as reasonably required to make it a multitenant lease, with Tenant’s responsibility for maintenance restricted to the Leased Premises and not including Building Systems.
G. Notwithstanding Section 15.01.D(iii), above, Landlord agrees that if Tenant proposes to sublease the first (1st) floor of the Building (or any part of such floor) to a Transferee that proposes to use such space for retail purposes, then Landlord shall not withhold its consent to such proposed subletting solely because such Transferee does not intend to use the subleased premises for general office uses; provided, that each of the following conditions are fully satisfied:
(i) the retail use is of the type typically found in and consistent with the character of comparable first class mixed-use projects in Northern California area at that time (but specifically excluding an “outlet” “off-price” or “discount” operation or a store that sells irregular, seconds or factory damaged goods); provided, however, such proposed retail use shall not: (a) conflict with or violate any exclusives or prohibited uses then in effect for the Project; (b) conflict with, or be substantially similar to, the primary use of any then existing tenant in the Project; (c) violate any applicable laws; (d) cause Landlord’s existing parking facilities to be in violation of applicable laws or require Landlord to increase parking to meet applicable laws; or (e) overburden other Project facilities, including but not limited to lighting, security, maintenance or building premises. Further, in no event shall the Transferee propose to operate the subleased premises for any “Noxious Use”, defined as a use which is repugnant to the sensibility of the community in general, including, by way of example and not limitation: (1) a store primarily selling or leasing sexually explicit materials such as cassettes, films, books and magazines; (2) a movie theater primarily showing “X” rated or other sexually explicit movies; (3) a massage parlor (other than a “Massage Envy” or similar first-class therapeutic massage operator); (4) a so-called “head shop” or drug paraphernalia store; (5) a store showing so-called “peep” shows; (6) a facility featuring scantily clad waiters or waitresses (e.g., Tilted Kilt and Hooters), “strip tease
30
acts”, “nude dancing” or similar activities; (7) a store primarily selling items concerning sexuality (e.g., a so-called “sex” shop); (8) a mortuary; and (9) a carnival or fair;
(ii) the proposed Transferee has at least five (5) years’ experience operating the same type of business as is being proposed for the sublet premises in connection with such subletting;
(iii) the proposed Transferee, on the effective date of the subletting, owns and/or operates at least ten (10) locations of a similar type of business as is being proposed for the Leased Premises in connection with such subletting;
(iv) the proposed Transferee is not then in default of any other leases and/or operating agreements with Landlord or its affiliates;
(v) Landlord is not then in negotiations with the proposed Transferee for other vacant space in the Commercial Portion.
Nothing contained in this Section 15.01.G shall limit Landlord’s right to withhold its consent to a subletting to a Transferee intending to use the subleased premises pursuant to Sections 15.01.G(i), (ii), or (iv), above. If Tenant subleases the first (1st) floor of the Building (or any part of such floor) to a retail Transferee, then such retail Transferee may maintain exterior signage, however any such signage maintained on the exterior portions of the Building by such retail Transferee shall comply with Landlord’s signage criteria for the Project, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit H-1 (the “Retail Tenant Sign Criteria”); provided, however, that the Retail Tenant Sign Criteria shall be subject to change from time to time so long as such changes are consistent with the Operating Standard.
Section 15.02. | Tenant Remedies. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed its consent under this Article XV or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article XV, Tenant’s sole remedies shall be declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought, or an action for compensatory monetary damages, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right provided under California Civil Code Section 1995.310 or other applicable laws to terminate this Lease.
Section 15.03. | Landlord Consent Not Required. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XV, as long as no Default by Tenant has then occurred and is continuing, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet any portion of the Leased Premises (hereinafter collectively referred to as a “Permitted Transfer”) to (a) an affiliate of Tenant (an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant), (b) any successor entity to Tenant by way of merger, consolidation or other non-bankruptcy corporate reorganization, or (c) an entity which acquires all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets or stock and continuing Tenant’s business operations at or from the Leased Premises (collectively, “Permitted Transferees,” and, individually, a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that (i) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Transfer (or three (3) Business Days after the Transfer if prior notice of such Transfer is prevented by applicable laws or confidentiality restrictions), Tenant notifies Landlord of such Transfer, and supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such Transfer or Permitted Transferee, including, but not limited to, copies of any sublease or instrument of assignment and copies of documents establishing to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that the transaction in question is one permitted under this Section 15.03; (ii) if the transaction is an assignment, or acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, promptly after the Permitted Transfer, Tenant furnishes Landlord with a written document executed by the proposed Permitted Transferee in which, in the case of an assignment, such entity assumes all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease thereafter to be performed, and, in the case of a sublease, such entity agrees to sublease the applicable space subject to this Lease; (iii) in the case of an assignment pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) above, the successor entity must have a net worth (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, except that intangible assets such as goodwill, patents, copyrights, and trademarks shall be excluded in the calculation (“Net Worth”)) at the time of the Transfer of at least One Billion Dollars ($1,000,000,000.00) together with a debt-to-market capitalization ratio (“Debt Ratio”) of twenty-five percent (25%) or less; (iv) any such proposed Transfer is not, whether in a single transaction or in a series of transactions, entered into as a subterfuge to evade the obligations and restrictions relating to Transfers set forth in this Article 15; and (v) the Tenant to which the Leased Premises were initially leased shall continue to remain liable under this Lease for the performances of all terms, including, but not limited to, payment of Rent due under this Lease. “Control,” as used in this Section 15.03, shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting interest in, any person or entity.
31
ARTICLE XVI
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 16.01. | Default. |
Each of the following events shall constitute a default (“Default”) by Tenant under this Lease: (i) Tenant’s failure to pay, or make available as required by this Lease, any Rent by the date such Rent is due and has not been paid; (ii) if Tenant breaches or fails to observe or perform any term, condition or covenant of this Lease, other than those involving the payment of Rent or the timely delivery by Tenant of an estoppel certificate, documents in connection with a Transfer or insurance certificates, and such breach or failure is not cured within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s receipt of Notice thereof, unless such condition cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) days, in which case Tenant must commence such cure within said thirty (30) days and diligently pursue said cure to its completion (provided, however, if such breach or failure creates a hazard, public nuisance or dangerous situation, said thirty (30) day grace period shall be reduced to forty-eight (48) hours after Tenant’s receipt of Notice); (iii) Tenant’s failure to timely deliver an estoppel certificate, a document in connection with a Transfer or any insurance certificate and such failure continues for five (5) Business Days after Tenant’s receipt of Notice thereof; or (iv) if Tenant fails to carry and maintain the insurance required by this Lease and such failure continues for five (5) Business Days after Tenant’s receipt of Notice thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Default can be cured by the payment of money, Tenant shall, except as hereinafter provided, have five (5) Business Days after Notice from Landlord to cure the Default. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if Landlord shall give Notice of two (2) such Defaults within any twelve (12) month period, then thereafter, Tenant shall be in Default under this Lease if it fails to pay any Rent within ten (10) days after the same shall be due and payable, without the necessity of Notice.
Section 16.02. | Remedies and Damages. |
A. If a Default described in Section 16.01, above, occurs, Landlord shall have all the rights and remedies provided in this Section 16.02, in addition to all other rights and remedies available under this Lease or provided at law or in equity.
B. Landlord may, upon Notice to Tenant, terminate this Lease, or terminate Tenant’s right to possession without terminating this Lease (as Landlord may elect). If this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession under this Lease are at any time terminated under this Section 16.02 or otherwise, Tenant shall immediately surrender and deliver the Leased Premises peaceably to Landlord. If Tenant fails to do so, Landlord shall be entitled to re-enter, without process and without Notice (any Notice to quit or of re-entry being hereby expressly waived), using such force as may be necessary, and, alternatively, Landlord shall have the benefit of all provisions of law respecting the speedy recovery of possession of the Leased Premises (whether by summary proceedings or otherwise).
C. Landlord may also perform, on behalf and at the expense of Tenant, any obligation of Tenant under this Lease which Tenant fails to perform, the cost of which (together with an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) to cover Landlord’s overhead in connection therewith) shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within five (5) Business Days after demand therefor. In performing any obligations of Tenant, Landlord shall incur no liability for any loss or damage that may accrue to Tenant, the Leased Premises or Tenant’s Property by reason thereof, except if caused by Landlord’s willful and malicious act. The performance by Landlord of any such obligation shall not constitute a release or waiver of any of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
D. Upon termination of this Lease or of Tenant’s right to possession under this Lease, Landlord may at any time and from time to time relet all or any part of the Leased Premises for the account of Tenant or otherwise, at such rentals and upon such terms and conditions as Landlord shall deem appropriate. Landlord shall receive and collect the rents therefor, applying the same first to the payment of such expenses as Landlord may incur in recovering possession of the Leased Premises, including legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, in placing the Leased Premises in good order and condition and in preparing or altering the same for re-rental; second, to the payment of such expenses, commissions and charges as may be incurred by or on behalf of Landlord in connection with the reletting of the Leased Premises; and third, to the fulfillment of the covenants of Tenant under this Lease, including the various covenants to pay Rent. Any such reletting may be for such term(s) as Landlord elects. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay Landlord until the end of the Term of this Lease the equivalent of the amount of all the Rent and all other sums required to be paid by Tenant, less the net avails of such reletting, if any, on the dates such Rent and other sums above specified are due. Any reletting by Landlord shall not be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless Notice of such intention is given by Landlord to Tenant. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination of this Lease, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease. In any event, Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant’s obligations hereunder be diminished by reason of, any failure by Landlord to relet the Leased Premises or any failure by Landlord to collect any sums due upon such reletting.
32
E. In addition to all other remedies provided in this Lease and at law, if there occurs a Default by Tenant, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord may terminate this Lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder by Notice to Tenant, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Leased Premises to Landlord. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so terminate this Lease, then Landlord may recover from Tenant:
(i) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii) The worth at the time of 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
(iii) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) 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 events would likely result therefrom, specifically including, but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Leased Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and
(v) 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 subsections (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of award” is computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate. As used in subsection (iii) 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%).
Efforts by Landlord to mitigate damages caused by Tenant’s Default or breach of this Lease shall not waive Landlord’s right to recover damages under this Section. If termination of this Lease is obtained through an unlawful detainer action, Landlord shall have the right to recover in such proceeding the unpaid rent and damages as are recoverable thereon, or Landlord may reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit for such rent and/or damages.
F. At Landlord’s option and in addition to all other remedies provided in this Lease and at law, if there occurs a Default, Landlord may elect to continue this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession in effect under California Civil Code Section 1951.4 after Tenant’s breach or Default and recover the rent as it becomes due. Landlord and Tenant agree that the limitations on assignment and subletting set forth in Article XV in this Lease are reasonable. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Leased Premises or the appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession.
Section 16.03. | Remedies Cumulative. |
No reference to any specific right or remedy in this Lease shall preclude Landlord from exercising any other right, from having any other remedy, or from maintaining any action to which it may otherwise be entitled under this Lease, at law or in equity.
Section 16.04. | Waiver. |
A. Landlord shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of this Lease, or the breach of any such provision, unless specifically waived by Landlord in a writing executed by an authorized officer of Landlord. No waiver of a breach shall be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same provision, or of the provision itself, or of any other provision.
B. Tenant hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption and any and all rights to relief from forfeiture which would otherwise be granted or available to Tenant under any present or future statutes, rules or case law.
C. IN ANY LITIGATION (WHETHER OR NOT ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE LEASE) IN WHICH LANDLORD AND TENANT SHALL BE ADVERSE PARTIES, BOTH LANDLORD AND TENANT KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.
33
D. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant waives the right to make repairs at Landlord’s expense under Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and all other laws now or hereafter in effect. Furthermore, Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) and the provisions of any successor or other law of like import.
Section 16.05. | Tenant Self-Help Rights. |
Notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Lease to the contrary, if Tenant provides Notice to Landlord of an event or circumstance which requires the action of Landlord with respect to repair and/or maintenance of the Building and/or the Condenser Water System, and Landlord fails to commence such action within a reasonable period of time, given the circumstances, after the receipt of such Notice, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of such Notice (or not less than three (3) Business Days, if the matter is an Emergency) and thereafter continue providing such action through completion, then Tenant may proceed to take the required action upon delivery of an additional ten (10) Business Days’ Notice to Landlord and any Mortgagee of which Tenant has been given Notice (or one (1) Business Day in the event of an emergency) (a “Self-Help Notice”), specifying that Tenant is taking such required action if Landlord does not do so within the second notice period. If Landlord fails to commence to cure its failure to perform such time period, then Tenant may take such action is reasonably necessary to perform such obligations subject to the following terms and conditions:
A. All work performed by Tenant or its agents in accordance with this Section 16.05 must be performed in accordance with Section 9.03 (Alterations) above (except that the prior approvals by Landlord set forth in Section 9.03 shall not be required, nor shall Tenant have any restoration obligation under Section 9.05) at prevailing and competitive rates (taking into account the scope of the services, the financial strength, reputation and quality of Tenant’s selected contractor, the urgency of the situation and the requirement that harmonious labor relations be maintained within the Project) and so as to minimize interference with the rights of other occupants of the Project (if applicable); and
B. Promptly following completion of any work performed by Tenant pursuant to this Section 16.05 Tenant shall deliver a detailed invoice of the work completed, the materials used and the costs relating thereto and an assignment on a non-exclusive basis of any and all warranties relating to such work. If Landlord does not deliver a detailed written objection to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from Tenant, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the amount set forth in the invoice together with an administrative fee of ten percent (10%) of the cost thereof within thirty (30) days after Tenant’s delivery of such invoice. If, however, Landlord delivers to Tenant, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Tenant’s invoice, a written objection to the payment of such invoice, setting forth with reasonable detail Landlord’s good faith reasons for its claim that such action did not have to be taken by Landlord pursuant to this Lease or that the charges are excessive (in which case Landlord shall pay the amount it contends would not have been excessive), then Tenant shall not then be entitled to such reimbursement. Rather, Tenant may proceed to claim a default by Landlord or, if elected by either Landlord or Tenant, the matter shall proceed to resolution by the selection of an arbitrator to resolve the dispute. If Tenant prevails in the arbitration, the amount of the award (which shall include Interest from the time of delivery of Tenant’s invoice for such expenditures until the date Tenant receives such amount by payment or offset and attorneys’ fees and related costs) shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of the issuance of such award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 16.05, Tenant shall have no right under this Section to proceed to arbitration as provided above so long as Default has occurred and remains uncured.

Section 17.05. | Successors and Assigns. |
This Lease and the covenants and conditions herein contained shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Landlord and Tenant, and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

Section 17.06. | Limitation on Right of Recovery Against Landlord; Transfer of Landlord’s Interest. |
No shareholder, member, trustee, partner, director, officer, employee, representative or agent of Landlord shall be personally liable in respect of any covenant, condition or provision of this Lease. If Landlord breaches or defaults in any of its obligations in this Lease, Tenant shall look solely to the equity of the Landlord in the Building and any insurance proceeds arising from the insurance required hereunder for satisfaction of Tenant’s remedies. Further, Tenant acknowledges that Landlord has the right to transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Leased Premises, Building and/or this Lease. Tenant expressly agrees that in the event of any such transfer, Landlord shall automatically be released from all liability under this Lease arising after the date of any such transfer and Tenant agrees to look solely to such transferee for the performance of Landlord’s obligations hereunder after the date of such transfer, except as provided in Section 17.07, below. Any transferee shall agree to perform Landlord’s obligations hereunder arising or accruing after the date of such transfer, including, without limitation, the right to a return of the Security Deposit, unless the relevant transfer is made prior to the date the Tenant Work Allowance is funded and primarily for the purposes of avoiding payment of same, in which case the prior Landlord will continue to be liable. A ground lease or similar long term lease by Landlord of the entire Building, of which the Leased Premises are a part, shall be deemed a sale within the meaning of this Section 17.06. Tenant agrees to attorn to such new owner provided such new owner does not disturb Tenant’s use, occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises so long as Tenant is not in Default of this Lease. In no event shall Landlord be responsible for consequential damages (e.g., lost profits), punitive damages or any damages other than direct, actual and compensatory damages incurred by Tenant.
35
Section 17.07. | Security Deposit; Letter of Credit. |
A. Security Deposit. Unless Tenant elects to deliver a Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 17.07.B, below, no later than five (5) Business Days after the mutual execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, for Landlord’s general account, the Security Deposit set forth in Section 1.01.G hereof as security for the performance of each and every term, covenant, agreement and condition of this Lease to be performed by Tenant. Landlord may use, apply on Tenant’s behalf or retain (without liability for interest) during the Term all or any part of the Security Deposit to the extent required for the payment of any Rent which may be owed hereunder which is not paid when due, or for any sum which Landlord may expend to cure any Default of Tenant. In this regard, Tenant hereby waives any restriction on the uses to which the Security Deposit may be applied as contained in Section 1950.7(c) of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute. After each application from the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within five (5) Business Days after of Notice from Landlord, restore said deposit to the amount set forth in Section 1.01.G hereof. The use, application or retention of the Security Deposit by Landlord shall not be deemed a limitation on Landlord’s recovery in any case, or a waiver by Landlord of any Default, nor shall it prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy for a Default by Tenant. Landlord shall not be deemed a trustee of the Security Deposit. Landlord may use the Security Deposit in Landlord’s ordinary business and shall not be required to segregate it from Landlord’s general accounts. Tenant shall not be entitled to any interest on the Security Deposit. If Landlord transfers the Building during the Term, Landlord may pay the Security Deposit to any subsequent owner in conformity with the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and/or any successor statute, in which event the transferring landlord shall be released from all liability for the return of the Security Deposit. Tenant specifically grants to Landlord (and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 to the contrary) a period of sixty (60) days following the later of (i) the Termination Date, and (ii) when Tenant surrenders possession of the Leased Premises to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease within which to inspect the Leased Premises, make required restorations and repairs, receive and verify workmen’s billings therefor, and prepare a final accounting with respect to the Security Deposit and return any unused portion. In no event shall the Security Deposit or any portion thereof, be considered prepaid rent.
(ii) Letter of Credit.
(a) In lieu of a Security Deposit, Tenant shall have the right to deliver to Landlord, as protection for the full and faithful performance by Tenant of all of its obligations under this Lease and for all losses and damages Landlord may suffer (or that Landlord reasonably estimates it may suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease, an irrevocable and unconditional negotiable standby Letter of Credit (“Letter of Credit”), in the form attached to this Lease as Exhibit I and containing the terms required in this provision, payable in the Cities of Santa Clara or San Jose, California, running in favor of Landlord and issued by Silicon Valley Bank or another solvent, nationally recognized bank with a long term rating of BBB or higher, under the supervision of the Superintendent of Banks of the State of California, or a national banking association, in the amount of Two Million Seven Thousand Two Hundred Sixty and 37/100ths Dollars ($2,007,260.37) (“Letter of Credit Amount”). Tenant shall deliver the Letter of Credit to Landlord no later than five (5) Business Days after the mutual execution and delivery of this Lease. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points, or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall (1) be “callable” at sight, irrevocable, and unconditional; (2) be maintained in effect, whether through renewal or extension, for the period from the Lease Commencement Date and continuing until the date (“Letter of Credit Expiration Date”) that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of the Term, and Tenant shall deliver a new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord at least sixty (60) days before the expiration of the Letter of Credit then held by Landlord, without any action whatsoever on the part of Landlord; (3) be fully assignable by Landlord, its successors, and assigns; (4) permit partial draws and multiple presentations and drawings; (e) be honored by the bank issuing the same (“Bank”) regardless of whether Tenant disputes Landlord’s right to draw on the Letter of Credit; and (5) be otherwise subject to Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (UCP600) or International Standby Practices-ISP98, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590 (1998). In addition, the form and terms of the Letter of Credit and the issuing Bank shall be acceptable to Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord, or its then managing agent, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of the Letter of Credit if any of the following shall have occurred or be applicable: (1) such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this Lease; (2) Tenant has filed a voluntary petition under any chapter of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any similar state law (collectively, “Bankruptcy Code”); (3) Tenant has assigned any or all of its assets to creditors in accordance with any federal or state laws; (4) an involuntary petition has been filed against Tenant under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code; or (5) the Bank has notified Landlord that the Letter of Credit will not be renewed or extended through the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.
(b) The Letter of Credit shall also provide that Landlord, its successors, and assigns, may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent, transfer (one or more times) all or any portion of its interest in and to the Letter of Credit to another party, person, or entity, regardless of whether such transfer is separate from or a part of the assignment by Landlord of its rights and interests in and to this Lease.
36
In the event of a transfer of Landlord’s interest in the Leased Premises, Landlord shall transfer the Letter of Credit, in whole or in part, to the transferee and Landlord shall then, without any further agreement between the parties, be released by Tenant from all liability therefor, and it is agreed that the provisions of this Article shall apply to every transfer or assignment of the whole or any portion of the Letter of Credit to a new landlord. In connection with any such transfer of the Letter of Credit by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the Bank such applications, documents, and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer, and Tenant shall be responsible for paying the Bank’s transfer and processing fees in connection with any such transfer.
(c) If, as a result of Landlord drawing on the Letter of Credit, the amount of the Letter of Credit shall be less than the Letter of Credit Amount, Tenant shall, within five (5) Business Days after the drawdown by Landlord, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency, and any such additional letter(s) of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 17.07(ii). If Tenant fails to comply with this requirement, despite anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, the same shall constitute an incurable default by Tenant.
(d) Tenant covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the Letter of Credit or any part of it and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment, or attempted encumbrance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Letter of Credit expires earlier than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, Landlord will accept a renewal of the letter of credit (such renewal letter of credit to be in effect and delivered to Landlord, as applicable, not later than sixty (60) days before the expiration of the Letter of Credit), which shall be irrevocable and automatically renewable as required in section above through the Letter of Credit Expiration Date on the same terms as the expiring Letter of Credit or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. However, if the Letter of Credit is not timely renewed, or if Tenant fails to maintain the Letter of Credit in the amount and in accordance with the terms set forth above, Landlord shall have the right to present the Letter of Credit to the Bank in accordance with the terms hereof, and the proceeds of the Letter of Credit may be applied by Landlord against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that is not paid when due and to pay for all losses and damages that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease. Any unused proceeds shall constitute the property of Landlord and need not be segregated from Landlord’s other assets. Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date the amount of any proceeds of the Letter of Credit received by Landlord and not (1) applied against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that was not paid when due or (2) used to pay for any losses and damages suffered by Landlord (or reasonably estimated by Landlord that it will suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease; provided, however, that if before the Letter of Credit Expiration Date a voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code is filed by Tenant, or an involuntary petition is filed against Tenant by any of Tenant’s creditors, then Landlord shall not be obligated to make such payment in the amount of the unused Letter of Credit proceeds until either (x) all preference issues relating to payments under this Lease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or (y) such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed.
(e) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is entering into this Lease in material reliance on the ability of Landlord to draw on the Letter of Credit on the occurrence of any breach or default on the part of Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant shall breach any provision of this Lease or otherwise be in default under this Lease, Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant, draw on the Letter of Credit, in part or in whole, to cure any breach or default of Tenant and to compensate Landlord for any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it will sustain resulting from Tenant’s breach or default, including any damages that accrue upon termination of the Lease under the Lease and/or California Civil Code §1951.2 or any similar provision. Landlord’s use, application, or retention of any proceeds of the Letter of Credit, or any portion of it, shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Lease or by any applicable law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be required to proceed against the Letter of Credit, and shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit, either before or following a draw by Landlord of any portion of the Letter of Credit, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw on the Letter of Credit. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a draw on such Letter of Credit in a timely manner. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that (1) the Letter of Credit constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the Bank; (2) Tenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract; (3) Tenant has no property interest whatsoever in the Letter of Credit or the proceeds of it; and (4) if Tenant becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, neither Tenant, any trustee, nor Tenant’s bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Landlord’s claim or rights to the Letter of Credit or the proceeds of it by application of 11 USC §502(b)(6) or otherwise.
(f) Tenant may, from time to time, replace any existing Letter of Credit with a new Letter of Credit if the new Letter of Credit: (1) becomes effective at least sixty (60) days before expiration of the Letter of
37
Credit that it replaces; (2) is in the required Letter of Credit amount; (3) is issued by a Letter of Credit bank acceptable to Landlord; and (4) otherwise complies with the requirements of this Section 17.07(ii).
(g) Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the Letter of Credit or any renewal or proceeds of it be (1) deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” within the meaning of California Civil Code §1950.7, (2) subject to the terms of §1950.7, (3) intended to serve as a “security deposit” within the meaning of §1950.7, or (4) limit Landlord’s remedies hereunder. Landlord and Tenant (x) confirm that the Letter of Credit is not intended to serve as a security deposit and §1950.7 and any and all other laws, rules, and regulations applicable to security deposits in the commercial context (“Security Deposit Laws”) shall have no applicability or relevancy to the Letter of Credit and (y) waive any and all rights, duties, and obligations either party may now or in the future have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws.
Section 17.08. | Entire Agreement; No Representations; Modification. |
This Lease is intended by the parties to be a final expression of their agreement and as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms thereof. All prior negotiations, considerations and representations between the parties (oral or written) are incorporated herein. No course of prior dealings between the parties or their officers, employees, agents or affiliates shall be relevant or admissible to supplement, explain or vary any of the terms of this Lease. No representations, understandings, agreements, warranties or promises with respect to the Leased Premises or the Building, or with respect to past, present or future tenancies, rents, expenses, operations, or any other matter, have been made or relied upon in the making of this Lease, other than those specifically set forth herein. This Lease may only be modified, or a term thereof waived, by a writing signed by an authorized officer of Landlord and Tenant expressly setting forth said modification or waiver.
Section 17.09. | Severability. |
If any term or provision of this Lease, or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance, shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease, or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Lease shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 17.10. | Joint and Several Liability. |
If two or more Persons shall sign this Lease as Tenant, the liability of each such Person to pay the Rent and perform all other obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be joint and several, and all Notices, payments and agreements given or made by, with or to any one of such Persons shall be deemed to have been given or made by, with or to all of them. In like manner, if Tenant shall be a partnership or other legal entity, the partners or members of which are, by virtue of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, subject to personal liability, the liability of each such partner or member under this Lease shall be joint and several and each such partner or member shall be fully obligated hereunder and bound hereby as if each such partner or member had personally signed this Lease.
Section 17.11. | Broker’s Commission. |
Other than Cornish & Carey Commercial dba Newmark Cornish & Carey (“Broker”), Landlord and Tenant each warrants and represents to the other that no broker, finder or agent has acted for or on its behalf in connection with the negotiation, execution or procurement of this Lease. Subject to the next sentence, Landlord and Tenant each agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against all liabilities, obligations and damages arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with a claim from a broker, finder or agent with respect to this Lease or the negotiation thereof, including costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in the defense of any claim made by a broker alleging to have performed services on behalf of the indemnifying party. Landlord agrees to pay Broker a commission with respect to this Lease in accordance with a separate written agreement between Landlord and Broker.
Section 17.12. | No Option; Irrevocable Offer. |
The submission of this Lease by Landlord, its broker, agent or representative, for examination or execution by Tenant, does not constitute an option or offer to lease the Leased Premises upon the terms and conditions contained herein or a reservation of the Leased Premises in favor of Tenant; it being intended hereby that notwithstanding the preparation of space plans and/or tenant improvements plans, etc., and/or the expenditure by Tenant of time and/or money while engaged in negotiations in anticipation of it becoming the Tenant under this Lease, or Tenant’s forbearing pursuit of other leasing opportunities, or even Tenant’s execution of this Lease and submission of same to Landlord, that this Lease shall become effective and binding upon Landlord only upon the execution hereof by Landlord and its delivery of a fully executed counterpart hereof to Tenant. No exception to the foregoing disclaimer is intended, nor shall any be implied, from expressions of Landlord’s willingness to negotiate with respect to any of the terms and conditions contained herein. Tenant’s execution of this Lease shall be deemed an offer by Tenant.
38
Section 17.13. | Inability to Perform. |
Except for the payment of monetary obligations, in any case where either party hereto is required to do any act, and the performance of such act is prevented, delayed or stopped due to any of the following (“Force Majeure”): acts of God or nature, war, terrorism, civil commotion, fire, flood or other Casualty, labor difficulties, shortages of labor or materials or equipment, government regulations, delay by government or regulatory agencies with respect to approval or permit process, unusually severe weather or other reasonably unforeseeable circumstances not within the control of the party or its agents delayed in performing work or doing acts required under the terms of this Lease, the time for performance of such act (whether designated by a fixed date, a fixed time or a “reasonable time”) shall be deemed to be extended by the period of such prevention, delay or stoppage. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, if either party is unable to perform or delayed in performing any of its obligations under this Lease to the extent due to a foregoing event, such party shall not be in default under this Lease; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section shall (i) extend the time at which Tenant is entitled to terminate this Lease pursuant to any express termination right under this Lease, or (ii) permit Tenant to holdover in the Leased Premises after the Termination Date. It shall be a condition of the right to claim an extension of time or other consequence as a result of any of the foregoing events that the party seeking such extension or consequence shall notify the other party thereof, specifying the nature and (to the extent known) the estimated length thereof. If such Notice is given later than five (5) Business Days after the notifying party first has actual knowledge of the existence of the event, then the event occurring during the period commencing on such fifth (5th) Business Day and ending on the date of such Notice, shall be disregarded and deemed not to have occurred.
Section 17.14. | Survival. |
Occurrence of the Termination Date shall not relieve Tenant from its obligations accruing prior to the expiration of the Term. All such obligations shall survive termination of this Lease.
Section 17.15. | Corporate Tenants. |
If Tenant is not an individual, the individual(s) executing this Lease on behalf of Tenant hereby covenant(s) and warrant(s) that: (i) Tenant is duly formed, qualified to do business and in good standing in the state in which the Building is located; and (ii) such Person(s) are duly authorized by such Person to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall remain qualified to do business and in good standing in said state throughout the Term.
Section 17.16. | Construction of Certain Terms. |
The term “including” shall mean in all cases “including, without limitation.” Wherever Tenant is required to perform any act hereunder, such party shall do so at its sole cost and expense, unless expressly provided otherwise. All payments to Landlord, other than Minimum Rent, whether as reimbursement or otherwise, shall be deemed to be Additional Rent, regardless of whether denominated as “Additional Rent.” The parties acknowledge that this Lease has been agreed to by both the parties, that both Landlord and Tenant have consulted with attorneys with respect to the terms of this Lease and that no presumption shall be created against Landlord because Landlord drafted this Lease.
Section 17.17. | Showing of Leased Premises. |
Landlord may enter upon the Leased Premises for purposes of showing the Leased Premises to Mortgagees, prospective Mortgagees, insurers, prospective insurers, investors, underwriters, and purchasers and prospective purchasers at any time during the Term and to prospective tenants during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, subject to execution of a reasonable and customary nondisclosure agreement by any person other than Landlord having access to the Premises, and after providing at least two (2) Business Days’ Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Mortgagee, prospective Mortgagee, insurer or prospective insurer refuses to execute a nondisclosure agreement, then such Mortgagee, prospective Mortgagee, insurer or prospective insurer shall nevertheless be permitted to access the Leased Premises for purposes of completing customary underwriting activities (i.e., seismic and property condition reports) in the Leased Premises.
Section 17.18. | Relationship of Parties. |
This Lease shall not create any relationship between the parties other than that of Landlord and Tenant.

Tenant shall cooperate with Landlord and provide access to the Leased Premises from time to time for inspections and assessments of environmental conditions and shall remove all Hazardous Substances from the Leased Premises upon expiration or termination of the Lease. Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and Landlord’s Indemnitees harmless from and against all liabilities, obligations, damages, judgments, losses, penalties, claims, costs, charges and expenses, including reasonable architects’ and attorneys’ fees, which may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord or Landlord’s Indemnitees by a third party and arising, directly or indirectly, out of or in connection with the presence of Hazardous Substances at or affecting the Building due to any act or failure to act of Tenant, its agents, servants, employees or contractors. As used herein, “Hazardous Substances” shall mean (i) hazardous or toxic substances, wastes, materials, pollutants and contaminants which are included in or regulated by any federal, state or local law, regulation, rule or ordinance, including CERCLA, Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Toxic Substances Control Act, as any of the foregoing may be amended from time to time, (ii) petroleum products, (iii) halogenated and non-halogenated solvents, and (iv) all other regulated chemicals, materials and solutions which, alone or in combination with other substances, are potentially harmful to the environment, public health or safety or natural resources.

Section 17.27. | Future Development. |
Tenant understands and agrees that Landlord is, will or may be engaged in the design, development, demolition, construction and leasing activities in connection with additional development of the Project and the Common Areas within areas adjacent to or near the Leased Premises and that these activities may result in, among other things, the creation of temporary periods of noise, vibrations, dust, lights, and odors. Tenant acknowledges that it has received notification of these activities. In addition to Landlord’s rights set forth elsewhere in this Lease, Tenant covenants and agrees that Landlord shall have the right, in the nature of an easement, to subject the Leased Premises and areas adjacent to or near to the Leased Premises to such temporary nuisances during such activities. Landlord shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with or disruption of Tenant’s business in the Leased Premises, but neither Landlord nor its related entities or affiliates shall be liable to Tenant for any inconvenience or disruption resulting from such construction nor shall any such inconvenience serve as the basis for any abatement in Rent. Tenant further agrees that Tenant shall take no action to limit or delay Landlord’s activities in connection with the design, development, demolition, construction or leasing of such areas in the Project.
Section 17.28. | Rights of First Offer to Lease. |
A. 700 Santana Row.
1. If, at any time during the initial Term hereof (such period of time being referred to herein as the “700 SR ROFO Term”), Landlord determines in its sole and absolute discretion that it will develop and lease that portion of the Project identified on Exhibit A as “700 Santana Row Building” (“700 SR”) to a single tenant for the Permitted Use, then Tenant shall have a right of first offer (the “700 SR ROFO”) to lease all, but not less than all, of 700 SR, subject to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 17.28.A. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that 700 SR refers to a currently unimproved parcel of land upon which a building may be constructed. Landlord does not currently have definitive plans to construct any improvements on such unimproved parcel and nothing in this Lease shall be construed to obligate Landlord to construct a building or other improvements on the unimproved land. Tenant shall be entitled to rights and options granted with respect to the 700 SR subject to the terms of this Section 17.28.A if, and only if, Landlord elects, in its sole and absolute judgment, to develop the 700 SR for the Permitted Use during the 700 SR ROFO Term. Tenant further acknowledges that its rights under this Section 17.28.A are subject and subordinate to the rights of tenants of the Project as of the date of this Lease. For the avoidance of any doubt, the 700 SR ROFO shall not apply to any leasing of less than all of 700 SR.
2. If Landlord elects during the 700 SR ROFO Term to enter into a lease with a third party for all of 700 SR, then, prior to entering into such lease, Landlord will give a Notice to Tenant (an “Offering Notice”) setting forth the material terms upon which Landlord is willing to lease all of 700 SR to Tenant, including, but not limited to, (a) the approximate Floor Area of building; (b) the Annual Minimum Rent (which may include periodic increases) Landlord proposes to charge, based upon Landlord’s assessment of current market conditions, and which amount may be more or less than the Annual Minimum Rent set forth in this Lease; (c) the tenant improvements, if any, Landlord proposes to install and/or the tenant improvement allowance, if any, that Landlord proposes to pay in connection with a lease of the building; (d) the anticipated date upon which possession of the building will be available; (e) the term for which Landlord proposes to lease the building; (f) the parking associated with the building; and (g) any other material conditions or provisions relating to the leasing of the building that vary materially from the provisions of this Lease.
3. If Tenant wishes to exercise the 700 SR ROFO on the terms specified in the Offering Notice, then Tenant shall so notify Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, which Notice shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Tenant may exercise its 700 SR ROFO only with respect to all of 700 SR. If Tenant timely exercises its 700 SR ROFO to lease all of 700 SR, then Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a new lease (the form of which will be substantially the same as this Lease) for 700 SR Building on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease except (i) as specified in the Offering Notice (which shall govern to the extent of any conflict with this Lease), and (ii) the lease for the 700 SR Building shall not include a right of first offer with respect to the 900 SR Building (as defined below) unless otherwise set forth in the Offering Notice.
4. If Tenant (i) fails to timely notify Landlord that it wishes to lease 700 SR on the terms set forth in any Offering Notice, or (ii) fails to execute and deliver to Landlord the lease for the 700 SR within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt thereof by Tenant, then, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Tenant’s rights under this Section 17.28.A shall terminate and Landlord may lease 700 SR to any third party on terms and conditions Landlord may deem appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to
41
exercise its 700 SR ROFO within the time required, then the 700 SR ROFO shall apply again (subject to the provisions of this Section 17.28.A, except that Tenant must give Landlord irrevocable and unconditional written notice of its exercise of the 700 SR ROFO with respect to 700 SR within five (5) Business Days after Tenant receives the revised Offering Notice) if (i) Landlord desires to offer all of 700 SR for lease to another party at an Effective Rental Rate (as hereinafter defined) that is less than ninety percent (90%) of the Effective Rental Rate of the terms provided in the initial Offering Notice, or (ii) Landlord has not entered into a lease for 700 SR within two hundred forty (240) days of its delivery of an Offering Notice; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall extend Tenant’s rights hereunder beyond the expiration of the 700 SR ROFO Term. The “Effective Rental Rate” shall mean the constant rent per period that equals the present value of the net cash flows, including, without limitation, cash flows related to capital items such as tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and taking into account all concessions, abatements, incentives and similar items, over the lease term, discounted at an annual cost of capital rate equal to eight percent (8%).
B. 900 Santana Row.
1. If (a) Landlord delivers an Offering Notice to Tenant with respect to 700 SR; (b) Tenant does not lease the 700 SR pursuant to such Offering Notice, and (c) Landlord enters into a lease for all of 700 SR with a party other than Tenant (the “700 SR Tenant”), then, commencing on the date Landlord enters into such lease for 700 SR with the 700 SR Tenant and expiring on the expiration of the initial Term (such period of time being referred to herein as the “900 SR ROFO Term”), Landlord determines in its sole and absolute discretion that it will develop and lease that portion of the Project identified on Exhibit A as “900 Santana Row Building” (“900 SR”) to a single tenant for the Permitted Use, then Tenant shall have a right of first offer (the “900 SR ROFO”) to lease all of the then available space, but not less than all the then available space, at 900 SR, subject to, and in accordance with, the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 17.28.B. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that 900 SR refers to a currently unimproved parcel of land upon which a building may be constructed. Landlord does not currently have definitive plans to construct any improvements on such unimproved parcel and nothing in this Lease shall be construed to obligate Landlord to construct a building or other improvements on the unimproved land. Tenant shall be entitled to rights and options granted with respect to 900 SR subject to the terms of this Section 17.28.B if, and only if, Landlord elects, in its sole and absolute judgment, to develop the 900 SR for the Permitted Use during the 900 SR ROFO Term and the conditions set forth in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 17.28.B.1 are otherwise satisfied. Tenant further acknowledges that its rights under this Section 17.28.B are subject and subordinate to the rights of tenants of the Project as of the date of this Lease.
2. Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to lease any or all of 900 SR to the 700 SR Tenant free and clear of Tenant’s rights hereunder provided that such lease is entered into substantially at the same time as the lease for 700 SR. Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that the 900 SR ROFO shall only apply to those portions of 900 SR not leased by the 700 SR Tenant (such space being referred to herein as the “900 SR ROFO Space”). By way of example only, if the 700 SR Tenant leases fifty percent (50%) of 900 SR, then the 900 SR ROFO Space shall mean only the fifty percent (50%) of 900 SR not leased to the 700 SR Tenant.
3. If Landlord elects during the 900 SR ROFO Term to enter into a lease with a third party for the entire 900 SR ROFO Space, then, prior to entering into such lease, Landlord shall deliver an Offering Notice to Tenant setting forth the material terms upon which Landlord is willing to lease the 900 SR ROFO Space to Tenant. The Offering Notice shall contain the information required in Section 17.2.A.2, above. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the 900 SR ROFO shall not apply to any lease of less than all of the 900 SR ROFO Space.
4. If Tenant wishes to exercise its right of first offer with respect to the 900 SR ROFO Space on the terms specified in the Offering Notice, then Tenant shall so notify Landlord within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, which Notice shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Tenant may exercise its ROFO only with respect to the entire 900 SR ROFO Space. If Tenant timely exercises its ROFO to lease the 900 SR ROFO Space, then Landlord and Tenant shall enter into a new lease (the form of which will be substantially the same as this Lease) for the 900 SR ROFO Space on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease except as specified in the Offering Notice (which shall govern to the extent of any conflict with this Lease).
5. If Tenant (i) fails to timely notify Landlord that it wishes to lease the 900 SR ROFO Space on the terms set forth in any Offering Notice, or (ii) fails to execute and deliver to Landlord the lease for the 900 SR ROFO Space within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt thereof by Tenant, then, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Tenant’s rights under this Section 17.28.B shall terminate and Landlord may lease the 900 SR ROFO Space to any third party on terms and conditions Landlord may deem appropriate in its sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to exercise its right of first offer with respect to the 900 SR ROFO Space within the time required, then the 900 SR ROFO shall apply again (subject to the provisions of this Section 17.28.B, except that Tenant must give Landlord irrevocable and unconditional written notice of its exercise
42
of the 900 SR ROFO with respect to the 900 SR ROFO Space within five (5) Business Days after Tenant receives the revised Offering Notice) if (i) Landlord desires to offer the entire 900 SR ROFO Space for lease to another party at an Effective Rental Rate that is less than ninety percent (90%) of the Effective Rental Rate of the terms provided in the initial Offering Notice, or (ii) Landlord has not entered into a lease for the 900 SR ROFO Space within two hundred forty (240) days of its delivery of an Offering Notice; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall extend Tenant’s rights hereunder beyond the expiration of the 900 SR ROFO Term.
C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) if an event of Default is occurring under this Lease beyond any applicable cure period at the time any Offering Notice would otherwise be required to be sent under this Section 17.28.A or Section 17.28.B, then Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies, the right (but not the obligation) to refrain from delivering the Offering Notice to Tenant, and (ii) if this Lease shall have been terminated by Landlord as a reason of a Default by Tenant hereunder, any exercise of Tenant’s rights hereunder shall, at Landlord’s election, be void unless the term of the lease of the 700 SR Lease or 900 SR ROFO Space, as applicable, has already then commenced; provided, further, that if the lease for 700 SR has already commenced but the term of the lease for the 900 SR ROFO Space has not commenced, then the 900 SR ROFO shall, at Landlord’s election, be void.
D. Tenant’s rights pursuant to this Section 17.28 are personal to, and may be exercised only by, the Original Tenant and any Permitted Transferee of the Original Tenant under this Lease, and only if the Original Tenant or the Permitted Transferee (i) occupies at least seventy percent (70%) of the Floor Area of the Leased Premises originally leased hereunder at the time of such exercise, (ii) the Original Tenant’s Net Worth (or the Net Worth of the Permitted Transferee) is equal to or greater than that of the Tenant as reported for the second (2nd) fiscal quarter of 2015, and (iii) the Debt Ratio maintained by the Original Tenant (or the Debt Ratio maintained by the Permitted Transferee) is twenty-five percent (25%) or less.
E. Without limiting the other terms and conditions of this Lease, Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) Tenant’s rights under this Section 17.28 shall fully, finally and automatically terminate upon the earlier of (a) the expiration of the 700 SR ROFO Term and the 900 SR ROFO Term, as applicable, either by natural expiration or the earlier termination of this Lease as a result of a casualty or taking; and (b) a termination of this Lease as a result of a Tenant Default; (ii) time is of the essence with respect to all of the terms of this Section 17.28; and (iii) none of the time periods set forth in this Section 17.28 shall be extended as a result of Force Majeure.
Section 17.29. Notice of Sale.
Landlord shall provide a courtesy notice to Tenant of its intention to actively market for sale the Building unless such sale is in connection with the sale of the entire Project. Landlord shall endeavor to provide such notice ten (10) Business Days prior to commencing such active marketing efforts.
Section 17.30. Limit on Tenant’s Maximum Payments During Construction Period.
A. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease (or any other agreement between Tenant and Landlord entered into in connection with this Lease) to the contrary, at any time prior to Substantial Completion (the “Construction Period”), the aggregate amount of all payments made or expenses incurred by Tenant under this Lease (or any other agreement between Tenant and Landlord entered into in connection with this Lease), including but not limited to (i) Minimum Rent paid by Tenant; (ii) Tenant’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 8.01 hereof; and (iii) any draws of the Letter of Credit shall not (and will not) exceed the Construction Period Maximum Liability Cap (as defined below); provided, however, that if and to the extent that Tenant’s payment obligations under this Lease or any agreement between Tenant and Landlord entered into in connection with this Lease are limited by the Construction Period Maximum Liability Cap, so that Tenant does not make any payment to Landlord to which Landlord would have been entitled but for the Construction Period Maximum Liability Cap, then Tenant shall pay such amount (plus interest at the rate set forth in Section 1.02.G, above) to Landlord within three (3) business days after the earlier of (a) the first date on which a payment to Landlord may be made by Tenant that does not violate the Construction Period Maximum Liability Cap, or (b) the date on which the Construction Period ends. Further, during the Construction Period, Tenant’s payment and indemnification obligations under this Lease shall be limited such that Tenant shall only be obligated to (i) indemnify Landlord and not any of the other Landlord Indemnities; and (2) pay those costs or indemnify Landlord for those Losses resulting from Tenant’s own acts or failures to act as opposed to Losses arising from the actions or failures to act of others.
B. For purposes of this Lease, “Construction Period Maximum Liability Cap” shall mean 89.9% of the then incurred project costs for the Landlord Work that are properly capitalizable under US GAAP incurred as of such date (after having reduced such costs for any Force Majeure Costs (as defined below) and any costs not resulting from the acts or omissions of Tenant) minus the sum of (i) any payments previously paid by the Tenant in connection with the Landlord Work which have been future valued at five percent (5%) to such point in time; and (ii) the present value of any future payments made by Tenant during the Construction Period in connection with the Landlord Work discounted at five percent (5%) that the Tenant is obligated to make but in each case excluding
43
payments that are not required to be included in the calculation of the Tenant’s maximum guaranty amount under ASC 840-40-55 (EITF 97-10).
C. For purpose of this Lease, “Force Majeure Costs” shall mean the sum of (i) all costs and expenses incurred by the Landlord to restore the Landlord Work in connection with an event of Force Majeure (including (a) all capitalized interest and other collateral costs and carrying costs accruing on such cost necessary to repair and restore damage caused by such event of Force Majeure following such event of Force Majeure and (b) all capitalized interest and other collateral costs and carrying costs accruing as a result of time delays necessary to repair and restore damage caused by such event of Force Majeure following such event of Force Majeure) less the amount of all insurance proceeds applied to the restoration of the Landlord Work, and (ii) to the extent the Landlord Work is not restored following such event of Force Majeure, the reduction, if any, in fair market value of the Landlord Work as a result of such event of Force Majeure, as set forth in an appraisal in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord conducted by an independent appraiser selected by the Landlord; provided, however, in no event shall the amount determined in the foregoing clause (ii) be less than the remaining estimated cost to restore the Landlord Work to substantially the same condition as immediately prior to the event of Force Majeure.
D. TENANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (I) LANDLORD MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY REGARDING TENANT’S TAX OR ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF THIS LEASE; (II) TENANT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY INDEPENDENT COUNSEL OF TENANT’S CHOOSING; (III) TENANT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN ALL LEGAL, ACCOUNTING, TAX AND ANY OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE IT DEEMS NECESSARY PRIOR TO ENTERING INTO THIS LEASE; (IV) THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SECTIONS 17.30.A, B AND C SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY EVENTS ARISING AFTER THE CONSTRUCTION PERIOD; (V) THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS SECTION 17.30.D SHALL SURVIVE THE CONSTRUCTION PERIOD AND THE EXPIRATION OR EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS LEASE; AND (VI) LANDLORD SHALL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO AMEND OR OTHERWISE MODIFY OR RESTRUCTURE THIS LEASE TO ACHIEVE ANY PARTICULAR TAX OR ACCOUNTING TREATMENT.
Section 17.31. Energy Use Disclosure.
Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Building has not yet been constructed and, as a result, no data or other information regarding the historical and/or future energy consumption of the Building is available, and (b) Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and releases (for itself and all others claiming through Tenant), all rights and claims it may have under or in connection with Section 25402.10 of the California Public Resources Code and/or its implementing regulations with respect to this Lease and the Building.

WORK AGREEMENT
THIS WORK AGREEMENT (“Work Agreement”) is attached to and made a part of that certain Office Lease (the “Lease”) by and between FRIT SAN JOSE TOWN AND COUNTRY VILLAGE, LLC, a California limited liability company, by its managing member, STREET RETAIL, INC., a Maryland corporation, as landlord (“Landlord”), and SPLUNK, INC., a Delaware corporation, as tenant (“Tenant”) for the premises (the “Leased Premises”) described therein and consisting of approximately 236,622 square feet of Floor Area in the building located at 3090 Olsen Drive, San Jose, California, also known as 500 Santana Row (the “Building”).
1. Landlord Work. Landlord shall construct the improvements described on Exhibit B-1 (the “Landlord Work”) in a manner that is in substantial compliance with those certain plans described on Exhibit B-2 (the “Building Plans”). In the event of a conflict between the description of the Landlord Work on Exhibit B-1 and the Building Plans described on Exhibit B-2, the description of the Landlord Work on Exhibit B-1 shall control. Landlord may make non-material revisions to the Building Plans, subject to Tenant’s approval of any material changes, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as the Landlord Work, when constructed, will be comparable in appearance, design, efficiency, and quality to the improvements described in in the Building Plans. The cost of all design, architectural, engineering and construction work in connection with Landlord Work shall be at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Any work by Tenant of work in and to the Leased Premises above the Landlord Work in connection with the preparation of the Leased Premises for Tenant’s occupancy and use is referred to herein as “Tenant Work”. Any capitalized terms used herein, not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth elsewhere in the Lease
2. Landlord Work Substantial Completion. Landlord shall advise Tenant at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date that Substantial Completion of the Landlord Work is expected to occur. As used herein “Substantial Completion” shall mean completion of all items shown on the Building Plans (other than minor items considered to be of a “punchlist” nature that will not interfere with the ability to obtain such permits or certificates or Tenant’s ability to commence Tenant’s Work hereunder), and with the Condenser Water System fully operational and prepared to deliver chilled water to the Building Systems and the Leased Premises and the Parking Garage completed to a light broom finish condition and accessible. Substantial Completion will be confirmed by inspection by Tenant’s and Landlord’s construction representatives who will agree that Substantial Completion has occurred, and will also agree upon a punch list listing all items to be completed after Substantial Completion (the “Punchlist”). All items listed on the Punchlist will be completed by Landlord within forty-five (45) days (or such longer period as Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably agree is appropriate) after Substantial Completion is agreed to have occurred, subject to extension as a result of Tenant Delay and Force Majeure.
3. Warranties. Landlord will deliver to Tenant copies of all warranties, guaranties, and operating manuals and information relating to the improvements, equipment, and systems in the Building installed as part of Landlord’s Work that Tenant is obligated to maintain and repair pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease. Landlord will assign such warranties to Tenant on a nonexclusive basis to the extent such assignment is necessary in order to make any such warranties available to Tenant and such assignment can be done without the consent of any third party. Landlord will also deliver as-built CAD files to Tenant covering the Landlord Work.
4. Tenant’s Agent. Tenant hereby designates Per Johanson (“Tenant’s Agent”) as having authority to approve plans and specifications, to accept cost estimates, and to authorize changes or additions to Tenant Work during construction.
5. Plans and Specifications.
(A) Prior to the date hereof, Landlord provided to Tenant, and Tenant approved, the Building Plans. Tenant’s architect shall be responsible for performing all necessary field measurements and confirming the completeness and accuracy of such drawings.

(ii) Within fifteen (15) Business Days after Tenant delivers to Landlord Tenant’s Preliminary Plans for the initial Phase of the Tenant Work, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant in writing its approval of the Preliminary Plans or changes to the Preliminary Plans that will be required to obtain Landlord’s approval, which shall be reasonably specific regarding any required changes.
(iii) Within ten (10) Business Days after Landlord delivers to Tenant its required revisions to the Preliminary Plans for the initial Phase of the Tenant Work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord revised Preliminary Plans containing any required revisions and such suggested revisions as Tenant chooses to incorporate.
(iv) Within ten (10) Business Days after Tenant delivers to Landlord revised Preliminary Plans, Landlord shall deliver its confirmation that all required revisions have been made (if such is the fact) and its approval of the revised Preliminary Plans.
(v) Within the earlier of sixty (60) calendar days or forty-five (45) Business Days after Landlord approves the Preliminary Plans for the initial Phase of the Tenant Work, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord detailed architectural, mechanical, plumbing and electrical (and structural, if required) working drawings and construction documents for the for the initial Phase of the Tenant Work (including without limitation, the HVAC systems and fire and life safety systems serving such portion of the Tenant Work), based upon the approved Preliminary Plans, prepared by Tenant’s architects and engineers, and Tenant shall indicate its approval of such working drawings and construction documents in writing by signing and dating such working drawings and construction documents (the “Construction Documents”).

If Tenant desires to make revisions in the Construction Documents after Landlord has approved such Construction Documents, any such changes shall require Landlord to approve and date the revised Construction Documents. Promptly after the Construction Documents have been approved by Landlord, Tenant shall provide to Landlord a CAD CD of the Construction Documents and, upon any revisions to the Construction Documents pursuant to this Work Agreement, provide to Landlord a CAD CD of the revised Construction Documents.
Exhibit B

EXHIBIT B
WORK AGREEMENT
(B) The Preliminary Plans for each Phase of the Tenant Work and the Construction Documents related thereto, as finally approved by both Landlord and Tenant in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, shall collectively constitute the “Plans.” The Plans are expressly subject to Landlord’s prior written approval; provided, however, that Tenant shall be solely responsible for the content of the Plans and coordination of the Plans with base building design and/or Building Plans supplied to Tenant. In addition, Landlord’s approval of the Plans shall not constitute a warranty, covenant or assurance by Landlord that (i) any equipment or system shown thereon to be installed as part of Tenant’s Work will have the features or perform the functions for which such equipment or system was designed, (ii) the Plans satisfy applicable code requirements, (iii) the Plans are sufficient to enable the Tenant’s contractor to obtain a building permit for the Tenant Work; or (iv) the Tenant Work described thereon will not interfere with, and/or otherwise adversely affect, the Building Systems. Tenant shall be solely responsible for the Plans’ compliance with all applicable statutes, laws, rules, codes, ordinances and regulations of any governmental entity having jurisdiction over the Building and the Leased Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord determines at any time that the Tenant Work described on the Plans does or will interfere with, and/or otherwise adversely affect, the Building Systems or does not or will not comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation, Landlord will provide Notice of any matter that does not comply or will adversely affect the Building Systems, and the Plans shall be amended by Tenant, at Tenant’s cost, so that the Tenant Work will not interfere with, and/or otherwise adversely affect, the Building Systems and/or violate any applicable statutes, laws, rules, codes, ordinances or regulations, and Tenant shall be responsible for any delay arising in connection therewith, unless covered by the next sentence. Any material correction required as a result of material errors in the Building Plans submitted to Tenant that were not reasonably discoverable upon review thereof, or material deviation of as-built construction from such Building Plans will be paid for by Landlord and not result in any reduction of the Tenant Work Allowance. Further, if Landlord incurs any cost as a result of any failure of the Plans to comply with Applicable Laws or as a result of any impairment of any Building Systems or of Landlord’s ability to perform its obligations under this Exhibit B or the Lease resulting from any defect in the Plans, then Tenant, upon Notice and request from Landlord, shall, at Tenant’s expense, use reasonable efforts to enforce such any rights Tenant may have under the Design Professional Agreements directly against Tenant’s architect and/or engineers, as the case may be, in connection with any deficiency in the Plans and any monetary recovery related thereto shall be paid to Landlord after Tenant first recovers its reasonable out of pocket enforcement costs. As used herein, “Design Professional Agreements” means the agreements between Tenant and Tenant’s architect and engineers pursuant to which the Plans have been or will be prepared.
(C) Tenant shall pay the cost of preparing the Plans; provided, however, that Tenant may elect to apply up to $582,835.00 (i.e., $2.50 per square foot of Floor Area of the Leased Premises) of the Tenant Work Allowance, allocated by Phase, towards the cost of the Plans. So long as no Default is occurring hereunder, such portion of the Tenant Work Allowance will be paid within thirty (30) days after Tenant presents invoices for the relevant costs.
(D) Tenant may complete the Tenant Work in one or more phases (each a “Phase”); provided, however, that (i) each Phase shall consist of at least two (2) contiguous full floors, and (ii) Tenant must be able to obtain a certificate of occupancy for each such Phase upon completion of the applicable portion of the Tenant Work. If Tenant elects to construct the Tenant Work in Phases, then (a) Tenant shall provide Landlord with Notice of such election simultaneously with its initial submission of its Preliminary Plans for the first Phase; (b) the approval process set forth above shall apply to each subsequent Phase of construction but with respect to later Phases based on the date the request for approval is submitted and not the date set forth above; (c) the test fit allowance, portion of the Tenant Work Allowance applicable to architectural and plan costs will be allocated based on the Floor Area in each Phase, as will the Tenant Work Allowance and the Additional Allowance; and (d) Tenant will request approval of all Phases to be funded from the allowances provided herein within one (1) year following the Term Commencement Date.
6. Construction of Tenant Work.

Provided that this Lease is then in full force and effect and Tenant is not in Default of any of its obligations under the Lease, including this Exhibit B, and subject to Subsection B above regarding the Additional Allowance, then Landlord shall pay the Available Allowance to Tenant as follows:
(i) Landlord will disburse the Available Allowance applicable to any Phase (as calculated in accordance with Subsection C, above) based on percentage completion of such Phase (but in all events holding back the last 10% of such allocated amount until completion of all of Tenant’s Work in accordance with the terms hereof), no more frequently than monthly, and no later than thirty (30) days after any written request therefor. Each request shall (a) be accompanied by (I) a certification of Tenant’s architect that the Tenant Work for the Phase has been completed to a specified percentage completion, (II) an affidavit or other certification from Tenant listing all contractors and suppliers with whom Tenant has contracted with in connection with such Phase of the Tenant Work, together with the cost of each contract, (III) an affidavit or other certification from Tenant’s general contractor listing all subcontractors and suppliers whom the general contractor has contracted with in connection with such Phase of the Tenant’s Work, together with the cost of each contract, and (IV) conditional lien waivers in a form satisfactory to Landlord from Tenant’s general contractor, all subcontractors and material suppliers involved in the Phase of the Tenant Work with contracts having a value in excess of $2,500.00 and related to the initial progress payment (conditioned only on payment), and with respect to any payments other than the initial progress payment, copies of partial, unconditional lien waivers in a form satisfactory to Landlord from all contractors, subcontractors and material suppliers covering all work and materials under with contracts having a value in excess of $2,500.00 which were the subject of the immediately previous progress payment by Landlord.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right, without the obligation, to apply all or any portion of the undisbursed Tenant Work Allowance to remedy any monetary Default by Tenant occurring hereunder; provided, however, it is expressly covenanted and agreed that such remedy by Landlord shall not be deemed to
Exhibit B
Page 6
EXHIBIT B
WORK AGREEMENT
waive, or release, the monetary Default of Tenant. The foregoing remedy of Landlord is in addition to, and not in substitution for, all other rights and remedies of Landlord in the event of a Tenant Default under the Lease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Tenant have the right to deduct from Minimum Monthly Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease if Tenant has received written notice of a Default hereunder, and such Default remains uncured. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant agrees that during any period that Tenant is entitled to deduct sums from Minimum Monthly Rent (or any portion thereof) pursuant to this Section, then Tenant’s offset right shall be limited such that Tenant pays each month at least fifty percent (50%) of each successive installment of Minimum Monthly Rent (the “Offset Limit”).

Any capitalized terms used herein, not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth elsewhere in the Lease.
Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two (2) options to extend the Term (each, an “Extension Option” and, collectively, the “Extension Options”) for a period of five (5) years each (each, an “Extension Term”) commencing on the first day following the last day of the initial Term and, if applicable, the initial Extension Term on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Exhibit F; provided, however, that (i) Tenant has not sublet the Leased Premises (or any part thereof) or assigned its interest in the Lease except pursuant to a Permitted Transfer; (ii) an Extension Option is exercised, if at all, only with respect to the entire Leased Premises; and (iii) Tenant is not in Default of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease at the time Tenant exercises an Extension Option.

A. Exercise. Tenant shall exercise an Extension Option, if at all, by giving Landlord unconditional, irrevocable Notice of such election not earlier than 455 days and not later than 365 days prior to the last day of the initial Term or, if applicable, the initial Extension Term (as applicable, the “Exercise Period”), the time of such exercise being of the essence. Subject to the provisions of this Exhibit F, upon the giving of such Notice, this Lease and the Term shall be extended without execution or delivery of any other or further documents, with the same force and effect as if the applicable Extension Term had originally been included in the Term.
B. Conditions. If Tenant exercises an Extension Option pursuant to Section A above, all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease shall continue in full force and effect during the applicable Extension Term, including provisions regarding payment of Additional Rent, which shall remain payable on the terms herein set forth, except that (i) the Minimum Rent during an Extension Term shall be as determined in accordance with Section C below, (ii) Tenant shall continue to possess and occupy the Leased Premises in their existing condition, “as is,” as of the commencement of such Extension Term, and, subject to and without limiting Landlord’s repair, maintenance and other obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall have no obligation to repair, remodel, improve or alter the Leased Premises, to perform any other construction or other work of improvement upon the Leased Premises, or to provide Tenant with any construction or refurbishing allowance whatsoever, and (iii) Tenant shall have no further rights to extend the Term after the expiration of the second Extension Term.
C. Prevailing Market Rate. The Minimum Rent payable by Tenant for the Leased Premises during an Extension Term shall be the Prevailing Market Rate (as defined below) for the Leased Premises, valued as of the commencement of such Extension Term, determined in the manner hereinafter provided. As used herein, the term “Prevailing Market Rate” shall mean the annual Minimum Rent that a willing tenant would pay, and that a willing landlord would accept, at arm’s length, for space comparable to the Leased Premises within other comparable office buildings and comparable parking located in the West San Jose, Cupertino, Los Gatos and Campbell, California submarkets (the “Comparison Buildings”), based upon binding lease transactions for tenants in Comparison Buildings (“Comparison Leases”) entered into within twelve (12) months prior to the date of the determination of such Minimum Rent. Comparison Leases shall include renewal and new non-renewal tenancies, but shall exclude subleases and leases of space subject to another tenant’s expansion rights. Rent rates payable under Comparison Leases shall be adjusted to account for variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to: (a) the length of the Extension Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison Leases; (b) the rental structure, including, without limitation, rental rates per square foot (including whether gross or net, and if gross, adjusting for base year or expense stop), free rent additional rental, all other payments and escalations; (c) the size of the Leased Premises compared to the size of the premises of the Comparison Leases; (d) the location, floor levels and efficiencies of the floor(s) of the Leased Premises compared to the premises of the Comparison Lease; (e) the age and quality of construction of the Building compared to the Comparable Building; (f) the leasehold improvements and/or allowances, (g) the availability of parking, the parking ratio and parking charges and (h) all other economic factors or concessions available to a tenant in such a transaction.

E. Arbitration. If Tenant elects to submit the determination of Prevailing Market Rate to arbitration, Landlord and Tenant shall first negotiate in good faith in an attempt to determine the Prevailing Market Rate for the applicable Extension Term. If Landlord and Tenant are able to agree within thirty (30) days following the delivery of Tenant’s Notice to Landlord electing arbitration, then such agreement shall constitute a determination of Prevailing Market Rate for purposes of this Paragraph, and the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the Prevailing Market Rate and the Minimum Rent for such Extension Term. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the Prevailing Market Rate within such negotiating period, then within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of such negotiating period, the parties shall meet and concurrently deliver to each other their respective written estimates of Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term, supported by the reasons therefor (each, a “Determination”). Landlord’s Determination may be more or less than its initial proposal of Prevailing Market Rate. If either party fails to deliver its Determination in a timely manner and such failure continues for five (5) days after the receipt of Notice from the other party, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the amount specified by the other party. The Prevailing Market Rate shall be determined as set forth below, each party being bound to its Determination and such Determinations establishing the only two choices available to the Arbitration Panel (as hereinafter defined).
i. Within ten (10) days after the parties exchange Landlord’s and Tenant’s Determinations, the parties shall each appoint an arbitrator who shall be a licensed California real estate broker with at least ten (10) years’ experience in leasing commercial office space similar to the Building in Silicon Valley immediately prior to his or her appointment, and be familiar with the rentals then being charged in the Comparison Buildings. The parties may appoint the real estate brokers who assisted them in making their Determinations as their respective arbitrators. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an arbitrator and such failure continues for five (5) days after receipt of Notice from the other party, then the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term shall be the Determination of the other party.
ii. Within twenty (20) days following their appointment, the two arbitrators so selected shall appoint a third, similarly-qualified, independent arbitrator who has not had any prior business relationship with either party (the “Independent Arbitrator”). If an Independent Arbitrator has not been so selected by the end of such twenty (20) day period, then either party, on behalf of both, may request such appointment by the local office of the American Arbitration Association (or any successor thereto), or in the absence, failure, refusal or inability of such entity to act, then either party may apply to the presiding judge for the Santa Clara County Superior Court, for the appointment of such an Independent Arbitrator, and the other party shall not raise any question as to the court’s full power and jurisdiction to entertain the application and make the appointment.
iii. Within five (5) days following notification of the identity of the Independent Arbitrator so appointed, Landlord and Tenant shall submit copies of Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination to the three arbitrators (the “Arbitration Panel”). The Arbitration Panel, by majority vote, shall select either Landlord’s Determination or Tenant’s Determination as the Minimum Rent for the Extension Term, and shall have no right to propose a middle ground or to modify either of the two proposals or the provisions of this Lease. The Arbitration Panel shall attempt to render a decision within fifteen (15) Business Days after appointment. In any case, the Arbitration Panel shall render a decision within forty-five (45) days after appointment.
iv. The decision of the Arbitration Panel shall be final and binding upon the parties, and may be enforced in accordance with the provisions of California law. In the event of the failure, refusal or inability of any member of the Arbitration Panel to act, a successor shall be appointed in the manner that applied to the selection of the member being replaced.
v. Each party may submit any written materials to the Arbitration Panel within five (5) Business Days after selection of the Independent Arbitrator. No witnesses or oral testimony (i.e. no hearing) shall be permitted in connection with the Arbitration Panel’s decision unless agreed to by both parties. No ex parte communications shall be permitted between any member of the Arbitration Panel and either Landlord or Tenant following appointment of the Arbitrator Panel until conclusion of the arbitration process. The members of the Arbitration Panel are authorized to walk both the Leased Premises and any space in the Comparison Buildings (to the extent access is made available).
vi. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of the arbitrator designated by such party and the parties shall share the fees and expenses of the Independent Arbitrator and the expenses incident to the proceedings (excluding attorneys’ fees and similar expenses of the parties which shall be borne separately by each of the parties).

OPTIONS TO EXTEND
vii. With the exception of claims of fraud, gross negligence or criminal actions, Landlord and Tenant shall waive all claims, causes of action or other rights to proceed against the arbitrators and agree to indemnify and defend the arbitrators from and against any such claims, causes of action or proceedings brought by either Landlord or Tenant against the arbitrators.
viii. Until the matter is resolved by agreement between the parties or a decision is rendered in any arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section E, Tenant’s monthly payments of Minimum Rent shall be in an amount equal to the average of Landlord’s Determination and Tenant’s Determination. Within ten (10) Business Days following the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the decision of the arbitrators, as applicable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any deficiency in the Minimum Rent previously paid, or Landlord shall pay to Tenant any excess or credit the excess to the next succeeding installments of Minimum Rent in the Minimum Rent previously paid, as the case may be.
F. Rights Personal to Tenant. Tenant’s right to exercise each of the Extension Options is personal to, and may be exercised only by, Splunk Inc. (the “Original Tenant”). No assignee or subtenant, other than a Permitted Transferee, shall have any right to exercise the Extension Options granted herein.

SINGLE TENANT OFFICE BUILDING SIGN CRITERIA
500 SANTANA ROW SINGLE TENANT OFFICE BUILDING SIGN CRITERIA
All signs must be approved in writing by the Landlord and the City of San Jose Department of Planning, Building & Code Enforcement before Tenant commences sign fabrication, installation or obtaining other governmental approvals. No changes are permitted unless approved in writing by Landlord. Landlord's approval may be granted or withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion. Notwithstanding any City of San Jose code provision to the contrary, total Tenant sign area per facade shall be limited to one (1) square foot of sign area per each linear foot of respective building frontage.
Tenant shall submit sign shop drawings to Landlord for Landlord's written approval prior to commencing fabrication. The shop drawings shall indicate the size of all graphics and letters, along with spacing, type(s) of material, color, dimensions in relation to Leased Premises and installation details compatible with the materials and construction of the building facade. The drawings shall be to scale, indicating respective building elevations and appropriate section cuts through each sign, dimensioned to show overall length, height and letter depth, along with distance from end of letters to relevant building and/or demising lines.
Sign types installed at heights less than twenty feet (20’) as measured from the top of the adjacent sidewalk grade include the below-referenced Storefront Signs, Display Window Signs, Window Signs, Plaque Signs, Entry Area Paving Signs, and Address Signs. Other architectural elements that may be considered by Landlord at heights less than twenty feet (20’) as measured from the top of the adjacent sidewalk grade to communicate the tenant’s identity might include vertical projecting signs such as blade signs, and balcony treatments. Sign types installed at heights greater than twenty feet (20’) as measured from the top of the adjacent sidewalk grade include the below-referenced Storefront Signs.
A. Storefront Signs
Storefront signs must reflect the Trade Name of the Tenant. The storefront sign (or “flat mounted signs” as referenced in San Jose’s Sign Ordinance) can include a retail logo, a symbol, or an image which represents the Trade Name. Despite the term “flat” used in the Sign Ordinance, Tenant is encouraged to explore three-dimensional options at Santana Row, offering variety, texture and depth.
Signs should have a three-dimensional character and be illuminated by a fully-integrated light source. To meet City of San Jose lighting requirements, illumination needs to be concealed. Signage cut through a surface material with illumination from behind, or reverse channel “halo” letters are good examples of concealed lighting techniques.
Natural materials are the most appropriate for sign fabrication at Santana Row and can include: cast, polished or painted metal; painted, stained or natural wood; glazed or mosaic tile; etched, cut, edge-lit, or stained glass; cast-stone and carved natural stone. Bas-relief is encouraged, as are unique shapes and dimensional profiles.
All equipment, transformers, raceways, ballasts, crossovers, and conduits must be completely concealed. Connections and penetrations through the fascia shall be restricted. Tenant will remain responsible for damage and/or repair due to the attachment and/or removal of Tenant signs.
B. Display Window Signs
Storefronts may also incorporate signs inside a display window, if an integral part of the architectural design. Display window signs are intended for the Tenant Trade Name and/or logo only. Other brand names, brand logos and/or individual product names are prohibited. Display Window Signs shall be designed to complement architectural design, and in no event will be permitted to exceed more than 10% of the total glazed area.
Display Window Signs should generally be set-back sufficiently from the storefront to draw attention to the display area. Signs must be set back a minimum of twelve inches (12”) behind storefront glazing and in all events will be counted against overall sign area. All ballasts, transformers and other non-illuminated elements must be concealed.
C. Window Signs
Window Signs may be proposed in lieu of Display Window Signs or where display window signs are not allowed. Window Signs are intended to display the Tenant Trade Name and/or logo only, in no event will be permitted to exceed more than 10% of the total glazed area, and in all events will be counted against overall sign area.
Window Signs are applied directly to the surface of the glass. These include metal leaf, painted, etched, cut and sandblasted letters and/or logo graphics. Vinyl signs, and reverse cut vinyl adhesive signs on window glazing are not permitted at Santana Row.

RETAIL TENANT SIGN CRITERIA
SANTANA ROW SIGN CRITERIA
Storefront signs should have unique interpretations for different stores. Size, design, illumination, lack of illumination, height, and other characteristics may vary with different types of stores.
The two most important aspects of a sign are that it be clearly visible and that it accurately reflect the character of the store.
The Tenant's signage allowance shall be limited to a sign area 1.5 square feet for each linear foot of Tenant's store frontage.
All signage must be approved by the Landlord and the City of San Jose – Dept. of Planning before Tenant commences sign fabrication, installation or obtaining governmental approvals. No changes are permitted after final Landlord approval unless approved in writing by Landlord. Landlord's approval may be granted or withheld in Landlord's sole and absolute discretion.
Tenant shall submit sign shop drawings to Landlord for Landlord's written approval prior to commencing fabrication. The shop drawings shall show the size of all graphics and letters, along with spacing, type of material, color, dimensions in relation to Leased Premises and installation details compatible with the construction of the building facade and storefront. The drawings shall be to scale, showing a front elevation and section through sign, dimensioned to show overall length, height and letter depth, along with distance from end of letters to store demising line.
Primary sign types include storefront signs, blade signs, and window signs. Other elements that may be considered by the Landlord to also communicate the store’s identity might include options such as: fans, vertical projected signs, awnings, plaques, pavement graphics and perhaps balcony treatments.
A. Storefront Signs
Storefront signs must reflect the Trade Name of the Tenant. The storefront sign (or “flat mounted signs” as referenced in San Jose’s Sign Ordinance) can include retail logo, a symbol, or image that represents the store, or simply the Trade Name. Despite the term “flat” used in the Sign Ordinance, the Tenant is highly encouraged to explore three-dimensional design options at Santana Row, giving storefronts variety, texture and depth.
Signage should have a three-dimensional character and be illuminated by a light source fully integrated with the architecture of the storefront. To meet City of San Jose lighting requirements, illumination needs to be concealed. Signage cut through a surface material with illumination from behind, or reverse channel “halo” letters are good examples of concealed lighting techniques.
Natural materials are the most appropriate for signage fabrication in Santana Row and would include: cast, polished or painted metal; painted, stained or natural wood; glazed and mosaic tile; etched, cut, edge-lit, or stained glass; cast-stone and carved natural stone. Bas-relief is encouraged, as are unique shapes and dimensional profiles.
All equipment, transformers, raceways, ballasts, crossovers, and conduits must be concealed behind the fascia area. Connections and penetrations through the fascia shall be restricted. Tenants will be held responsible for damage to and repair of the Landlord’s fascia due to the attachment of signage.
B. Display Window Signs
Storefronts may also incorporate signs inside the display window. Display window signs are intended for the store name and logo only. Brand names, brand logos and product trademarks are prohibited. Display window signs shall be designed to complement the architectural design and work with the other display concepts of the storefront. All Are subject to Landlord’s review and approval.
While meeting the Sign Ordinance for the City of San Jose Code Requirements is to not exceed more than 25% of the total glazed area. Variance inquiry will be submitted by the Tenant after discussion with the Landlord, and at the Tenant’s own expense.
Display window signs should generally be set back sufficiently from the storefront to draw attention to the display area. Signs must be set back a minimum of twelve inches (12”) behind storefront glazing and are not to be counted against overall sign area. All ballasts, transformers and other non-illuminated elements must be concealed.
C. Window Signs

As part of this overall system, all Tenants will be required to install, at their own cost, a consistent addressing number. This will function as the premises address signage, its exact location will be determined by the Landlord in conjunction with the Fire Marshall.
G. Additional Signage per Building
Street level blade signs; larger multi-story, vertical blade signs; and balcony treatments should be discussed if the Tenant is interested in submitting ideas in their preliminary design package. Additional signage ideas will be reviewed and decided on a first-come, first-considered basis by Landlord.
