OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT is made and entered into by and between Landlord and Tenant on the Lease Date. The defined terms used in this Lease which are defined in the Basic Lease Information attached to this Lease Agreement (Basic Lease Information) shall have the meaning and definition given them in the Basic Lease Information. The Basic Lease Information, the Exhibits, the Addendum or Addenda attached hereto, if any, and this Office Lease Agreement are and shall be construed as a single instrument and are referred to herein as the Lease.
1. | DEMISE |
In consideration for the rents and all other charges and payments payable by Tenant, and for the agreements, terms and conditions to be performed by Tenant in this Lease, LANDLORD DOES HEREBY LEASE TO TENANT, AND TENANT DOES HEREBY HIRE AND TAKE FROM LANDLORD, the Premises described below (the Premises), upon the agreements, terms and conditions of this Lease for the Term hereinafter stated.
2. | PREMISES AND COMMON AREAS |
(a) The Premises demised by this Lease are located in that certain building (the Building) specified in the Basic Lease Information, which Building is located in that certain real estate development (the Project) specified in the Basic Lease Information. The Premises has the address and contains the Rentable Area specified in the Basic Lease Information and, until June 30, 2010, shall consist of the Phase I Premises, and, thereafter, shall consist of both the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises; provided, however, that any statement of Rentable Area set forth in this Lease, or that may have been used in calculating any of the economic terms hereof, is an approximation which Landlord and Tenant agree is reasonable and, except as expressly set forth in Paragraph 4(d)(iii) below, no economic terms based thereon shall be subject to revision whether or not the actual square footage is more or less. The location and dimensions of the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises are depicted on Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. As used in this Lease, (the Rentable Area) shall mean an area determined in accordance with the standards of the Building Owners and Managers Association ANSI/BOMA Z65.1 (1996).
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Phase II Premises as described in the Basic Lease Information is a portion of the Building that will be occupied by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date for the Phase II Premises pursuant to that certain Sub-Sublease by and between E-Loan, Inc., as sub-sub landlord and Tenant as sub-subtenant (the E-Loan Sub-Sublease). The E-Loan Sub-Sublease is expressly subject and subordinate to that certain Amended and Restated Office Building Lease effective March 16, 2000 (the Master Lease), between Landlord (as successor-in-interest to California Corporate Properties B, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company) and Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., a California corporation. In the event that the portion of the Building subleased by Tenant under the E-Loan Sub-Sublease is expanded to include space in the Building which is in addition to the Phase II Premises as described in the Basic Lease Information, then the Phase II Premises as defined herein shall also be expanded to include such additional space. In such event, the economic terms of this Lease relating to the Phase II Premises shall also be adjusted accordingly to reflect the additional Rentable Area (e.g., square footage, Monthly Base Rent, Tenants Proportionate Share, and Tenant Improvement Allowance).
1
(c) Tenant and Tenants employees, agents, and invitees shall have the non-exclusive right (in common with any other tenants, Landlord and any other person granted use by Landlord) to use the Common Areas (as hereinafter defined), except that, with respect to the Projects parking areas (the Parking Areas), Tenant shall have only the rights, if any, set forth in Paragraph 44 below. For purposes of this Lease, the term Common Areas shall mean all areas and facilities outside the Premises and within the exterior boundary lines of the Project that are, from time to time, reasonably provided and designated by Landlord for the non-exclusive use of Landlord, Tenant and other tenants of the Project and their respective employees, guests and invitees; provided, however, the following portions of the Project are expressly denoted as Common Areas for the non-exclusive use of Tenant and Tenants employees, guests and invitees: the entrance and lobby areas on the first (1st) floor of the Building; the risers and runs in the Building (subject to the limitations below in this Paragraph 2(c)); and, in the event effected, the Sports Court specified in Paragraph 2(f) below. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall have the non-exclusive rights to Tenants Proportionate Share of the common risers and runs in the Building in order to install, maintain, replace, remove or use any communications or computer wires and cables serving the Premises (collectively, the Data Lines), provided that (i) Tenant shall obtain Landlords prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), use an experienced and qualified contractor reasonably approved in writing by Landlord, and comply with all of the other provisions of Paragraph 12 below, (ii) an acceptable number of spare lines and space for additional lines shall be maintained for existing and future occupants of the Property, as determined in Landlords reasonable opinion, (iii) the Data Lines (including riser cables) shall be appropriately insulated to prevent excessive electromagnetic fields or radiation, shall be surrounded by a protective conduit reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and shall be identified in accordance with the Identification Requirements, as that term is set forth below, (iv) any new or existing Data Lines installed by Tenant and servicing the Premises shall comply with all applicable Laws, (v) as a condition to permitting the installation of new Data Lines, Landlord may require that Tenant remove existing redundant Lines located in or serving the Premises and repair any damage in connection with such removal, and (vi) Tenant shall pay all costs in connection therewith. All Data Lines shall be clearly marked with adhesive plastic labels (or plastic tags attached to such Data Lines with wire) to show Tenants name, suite number, telephone number and the name of the person to contact in the case of an emergency (A) every four feet (4) outside the Premises (specifically including, but not limited to, the electrical room risers and other Common Areas), and (B) at the Lines termination point(s) (collectively, the Identification Requirements). Landlord may, by notice to Tenant given not later than ninety (90) days prior to the Expiration Date (except in the event of a termination of this Lease prior to the scheduled Expiration Date, in which event no advance notice shall be required), require Tenant at Tenants expense to remove any or all Data Lines located in or serving the Premises prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
(d) Landlord has the right, in its sole discretion, from time to time, to: (i) make changes to the Common Areas, the Building and/or the Project, including, without limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of driveways, entrances, parking spaces, Parking Areas, ingress,
2
egress, direction of driveways, entrances, hallways, corridors, lobby areas and walkways; (ii) close temporarily any of the Common Areas for maintenance purposes so long as reasonable access to the Premises remains available; (iii) add additional buildings and improvements to the Common Areas or remove existing buildings or improvements therefrom; (iv) use the Common Areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs or alterations to the Project or any portion thereof; and (v) do and perform any other acts, alter or expand, or make any other changes in, to or with respect to the Common Areas, the Building and/or the Project as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, deem to be appropriate. Without limiting the foregoing, Landlord reserves the right from time to time to install, use, maintain, repair, relocate and replace pipes, ducts, conduits, wires, and appurtenant meters and equipment for service to the Premises or to other parts of the Building which are above the ceiling surfaces, below the floor surfaces, within the walls and in the central core areas of the Building which are located within the Premises or located elsewhere in the Building. In connection with any of the foregoing activities of Landlord, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts while conducting such activities to minimize any interference with Tenants use of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord makes any alterations to the Common Areas pursuant to its rights under this Paragraph 2, Landlord agrees that such alterations shall not unreasonably interfere with Tenants use of, or access to, the Premises.
(e) No rights to any view or to light or air over any property, whether belonging to Landlord or any other person, are granted to Tenant by this Lease. If at any time any windows of the Premises are temporarily darkened or the light or view therefrom is obstructed, the same shall be without liability to Landlord and without any reduction or diminution of Tenants obligations under this Lease.
(f) Tenant has notified Landlord that Tenant desires to construct a sports court, including exterior volleyball/basketball (sand and hard surface) courts in a portion of the Common Areas shown on Exhibit A-1 with specifications and in a location to be mutually agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant(the Sports Court). Landlord has generally approved the Sports Court and Tenant shall have the right to construct the Sports Court, provided that (i) Landlord and Tenant mutually agree on the precise design and location of the Sports Court, and (ii) Tenant fully complies with the terms and conditions of Paragraphs 12(a) through 12(g) below, including, without limitation, the review and approval by Landlord of detailed plans and specifications, and the approval by Landlord of Tenants contractor(s). Tenant shall be solely responsible for the costs to construct the Sports Court; provided, however, that Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for up to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) of all actual and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses directly incurred by Tenant in connection with Tenants construction of the Sports Court. In the event Sellers actual costs to construct the Sports Court exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00), then any such excess shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant; provided, however, that Tenant may apply any such costs against the Tenant Improvement Allowance for the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises. Landlords obligation to reimburse Tenant as set forth herein shall be subject to (i) Tenant providing Landlord with reasonable documentary evidence that Tenant has paid for the bill(s) or invoice(s) related to the design and construction of the Sports Court, and (ii) Tenant requesting such reimbursement within twelve (12) months following the Lease Date. Upon completion of the Sports Court, such area shall remain as part of the Common Areas and shall be available to all tenants of the Project. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Paragraph 11, upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease, or earlier termination, Tenant shall not be required to restore the Sports Court to its original Common Area condition prior to construction of the Sports Court.
3
(g) If and when Tenant leases and occupies the portion of the first (1st) floor of the Building located contiguous to the Outdoor Eating Area described in Exhibit A-1 attached hereto, then Tenant, at Tenants sole cost and expense, may convert a portion of the Common Areas as generally shown in Exhibit A-1 as the Outdoor Eating Area into an outdoor seating/eating area for the exclusive use of Tenant, provided that (i) Landlord and Tenant mutually agree on the precise size, design and location (provided that any design elements that are visible from areas outside the Building shall be subject to Landlords sole but good faith discretion), and (ii) Tenant fully complies with the terms and conditions of Paragraphs 12(a) through 12(g) below, including, without limitation, the review and approval by Landlord of detailed plans and specifications, and the approval by Landlord of Tenants contractor(s).

(d) Payment of Additional Rent.
(i) Within ninety (90) days after the end of the Base Year and each Computation Year or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give to Tenant notice of Landlords estimate of the total amounts that will be payable by Tenant under Paragraph 4(b) for the following Computation Year, and Tenant shall pay such estimated Additional Rent on a monthly basis, in advance, on the first (1st) day of each month. Tenant shall continue to make said monthly payments of estimated Additional Rent until Landlord provides at least thirty (30) days prior notice and reasonably justifies any increase in such monthly payments. If at any time or times Landlord reasonably determines that the amounts payable under Paragraph 4(b) for the current Computation Year will vary from Landlords estimate given to Tenant, Landlord, by at least thirty (30) days notice to Tenant, may revise the estimate for such Computation Year, and subsequent payments by Tenant for such Computation Year shall be based upon such revised estimate. Each calendar year following the initial Computation Year, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Tenant by April 1, a statement showing the actual
12
Additional Rent due to Landlord for the prior Computation Year. If the total of the monthly payments of Additional Rent that Tenant has made for the prior Computation Year is less than the actual Additional Rent chargeable to Tenant for such prior Computation Year, then Tenant shall pay the difference in a lump sum within twenty (20) days after receipt of such statement from Landlord. Any overpayment by Tenant of Additional Rent for the prior Computation Year shall, at Landlords option, be either credited towards the Rent next due or returned to Tenant in a lump sum payment within ten (10) days after delivery of such statement; provided, however, that upon the expiration of the Term, or earlier termination, Landlord shall, within sixty (60) days thereafter, provide Tenant a reconciliation of estimated payments of Additional Rent and estimated actual Additional Rent and bill Tenant for any Additional Rent due or reimburse any overpayment at the time of such reconciliation.
(ii) Landlords then-current annual operating and capital budgets for the Building and the Project or the pertinent part thereof shall be used for purposes of calculating Tenants monthly payment of estimated Additional Rent for the current year, subject to adjustment as provided above. Landlord shall make the final determination of Additional Rent for the year in which this Lease terminates as soon as possible after termination of such year. Even though the Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, with respect to the year in which this Lease expires or terminates, Tenant shall remain liable for payment of any amount due to Landlord in excess of the estimated Additional Rent previously paid by Tenant for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the date that the Lease expires, and, conversely, Landlord shall promptly return within twenty (20) days of determination to Tenant any overpayment made by Tenant during such period. The failure of Landlord to submit statements within twenty-four (24) months of the respective statement due date as called for herein shall be deemed a waiver of Tenants obligation to pay Additional Rent as herein provided.
(iii) With respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to the Building, Tenants Proportionate Share shall be the percentage set forth in the Basic Lease Information as Tenants Proportionate Share of the Building, as adjusted by Landlord from time to time for changes in the physical size of the Premises or the Building, whether such changes in size are due to an addition to or a sale or conveyance of a portion of the Building or otherwise. With respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord reasonably allocates to the Project as a whole or to only a portion of the Project, Tenants Proportionate Share shall be, with respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to the Project as a whole, the percentage set forth in the Basic Lease Information as Tenants Proportionate Share of the Project and, with respect to Operating Expenses, Insurance Expenses, Utility Expenses or Taxes which Landlord allocates to only a portion of the Project, a percentage calculated by Landlord from time to time in its reasonable discretion and furnished to Tenant in writing, in either case as adjusted by Landlord from time to time for a remeasurement of or changes in the physical size of the Premises or the Project, whether such changes in size are due to an addition to or a sale or conveyance of a portion of the Project or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 4(d)(iii), Landlord may, in its reasonable discretion, equitably adjust Tenants Proportionate Share(s) for all or part of any item of expense or cost reimbursable by Tenant that relates to a repair, replacement, or service that benefits only the Premises or only a portion of the Building and/or the Project or that varies with the occupancy of the Building and/or the Project. Without limiting
13
the generality of the foregoing, Tenant understands and agrees that Landlord shall have the right to adjust Tenants Proportionate Share(s) of any Utility Expenses based upon Tenants use of the Utilities or similar services as reasonably estimated and determined by Landlord based upon factors such as size of the Premises and intensity of use of such Utilities by Tenant such that Tenant shall pay the portion of such charges reasonably consistent with Tenants excessive use or underuse of such Utilities and similar services. If Tenant disputes any such estimate or determination of Utility Expenses, then Tenant shall either pay the estimated adjusted amount (and, if disputed, resolve the dispute pursuant to the Interim Resolution procedure specified in Paragraph 66 below) or, with the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval may be given or withheld in Landlords sole and absolute discretion, cause the Premises to be separately metered, at Tenants sole expense.
(iv) In the event the average occupancy level of the Building or the Project for the Base Year and/or any subsequent Computation Year is not ninety-five percent (95%) or more of full occupancy and fully used, then the Operating Expenses for such Base Year and/or subsequent Computation Year shall be apportioned among the tenants by the Landlord to reflect those costs which would have occurred had the Building or the Project, as applicable, been ninety-five percent (95%) occupied during such Base Year and/or subsequent Computation Year.
(v) Landlord reserves the right from time to time to remeasure the Premises, the Building and/or the Project in accordance with the current or revised standards promulgated from time to time by the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) or the American National Standards Institute or other generally accepted measurement standards utilized by Landlord, but in no event shall the Base Rent or Proportionate Share(s) of Tenant be adjusted solely by reason of such remeasurement.
(vi) In the event that the Commencement Date shall be a day other than the first day of a Computation Year or the Expiration Date or other termination of this Lease shall be a day other than the last day of a Computation Year, the amounts payable by Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 4(b) above with respect to the year in which such Commencement Date or Expiration Date (or other termination of this Lease) occurs will be prorated on the basis on which the number of days of the Term included in such year bears to three hundred sixty (360).
(vii) With respect to any Expenses that are incurred but not paid by Landlord in any Computation Year, such Expenses shall only be included to the extent such inclusion is generally consistent with commonly and consistently utilized commercial real estate accounting principles. Expenses shall be reduced by the amount of all reimbursements, recoupments, payments, credits, allowances or the like actually received by Landlord in respect of amounts previously billed to Tenant as Expenses; provided, however, that Landlord may include in Expenses, the reasonable and actual costs and expenses, if any, incurred by Landlord in obtaining such reimbursements, recoupments, payments, credits, allowances or the like. Landlord shall not collect as Additional Rent an amount that would reimburse Landlord for a sum in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of Expenses in any calendar year and Landlord shall not recover any item of Expenses more than once. Landlord shall at all times use its best efforts to operate the Project in an economically reasonable manner consistent with other First-Class Buildings.
14
(viii) Landlord shall have no right to bill Tenant for any Expenses (other than Taxes) attributable to a Computation Year after the date which is twenty-four (24) months after the end of such Computation Year. Landlord shall have no obligation to return, rebate or credit to Tenant any refund, rebate, or return of Expenses (other than Taxes) received by Landlord after the date which is twenty-four (24) months after the Expiration Date of this Lease.
(e) General Payment Terms. The Base Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, including, without limitation, any late charges assessed pursuant to Paragraph 6 below and any interest assessed pursuant to Paragraph 46 below, are referred to as the Rent. All Rent shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America and through a domestic branch of a United States financial institution. Checks are to be made payable to 6200 Stoneridge Mall Road Investors LLC and shall be mailed to: Department 33149, P.O. Box 39000, San Francisco, California 94139-3149 or to such other person or place as Landlord may, from time to time, designate to Tenant in writing. The Rent for any fractional part of a calendar month at the commencement or termination of the Term shall be a prorated amount of the Rent for a full calendar month based upon a thirty (30) day month.
(f) Statements Binding. Every statement given by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 4(a) above shall be conclusive and binding upon Tenant unless (i) within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such statement Tenant shall notify Landlord that desires to review the correctness thereof, and (ii) if Landlord and Tenant are unable to settle by agreement any dispute which may arise in connection with such review by Tenant, then, unless, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 4(g) below, Tenant shall submit such dispute to the CPA Arbitration within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the statement. Pending the determination of such dispute by agreement or the CPA Arbitration (as hereinafter defined), Tenant shall, within twenty (20) days after receipt of such statement, pay Additional Rent in accordance with Landlords statement and such payment shall be without prejudice to Tenants position. If the dispute shall be determined in Tenants favor, Landlord shall forthwith pay Tenant the amount of Tenants overpayment of Additional Rent resulting from compliance with Landlords statement.
(g) Audit Rights. Provided Tenant notifies Landlord in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 4(f) above that Tenant disputes a statement received from Landlord, Tenant or its CPA (as defined below) shall have the right, at Tenants sole cost and expense, provided Tenant utilizes a Certified Public Accountant (the CPA) compensated solely on an hourly basis, upon at least twenty (20) days prior notice to Landlord at any time during regular business hours, to audit, review and photocopy Landlords records pertaining to Operating Expenses for the immediately previous two (2) calendar years and the Base Year only. Tenant shall complete the audit and present any disputed charges to Landlord, in writing, within six months of receipt of Landlords statement pursuant to Paragraph 4(d) above. If, following Landlords receipt of the audit and any disputed charges (the Report Date), Landlord disputes the findings contained therein, and Landlord and Tenant are not able to resolve their differences within thirty (30) days following the Report Date, the dispute shall be resolved by the CPA Arbitration as follows: Landlord and Tenant shall each designate an independent certified public accountant, which shall in turn jointly select a third independent Certified Public Accountant (the Third CPA). The Third CPA, within thirty (30) days of selection, shall, at Tenants sole expense, audit the relevant records and certify the proper amount within. That certification shall be final and conclusive. If the Third CPA determines that the amount of Operating Expenses billed to Tenant was incorrect,
15
the appropriate party shall pay to the other party the deficiency or overpayment, as applicable, within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Third Party CPAs decision, without interest. Tenant agrees to keep all information thereby obtained by Tenant confidential and to obtain the agreement of its CPA and Third CPA to keep all such information confidential. Tenant shall provide a copy of such CPA agreements to Landlord promptly upon request. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Third CPA determines that Landlord overstated the amount of Operating Expenses by five percent (5%) or more, then Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its reasonable out-of-pocket audit expenses, including the cost of the Third CPA.
5. UTILITIES AND SERVICES

17
hundred percent (100%) of the Building and Tenant demonstrates to Landlords reasonable satisfaction that an alternative electrical service provider can provide electric service at a reduced rate, then Landlord agrees to consider, in good faith, any reasonable request by Tenant that such an alternative or additional electrical service provider be permitted to provide electrical services to the Premises and/or the Building, provided the same would not adversely affect existing Systems and would not result in any exterior changes to the Building or Project; provided, however in no event shall Landlord have any liability or be in breach hereunder for any failure to engage, or permit the use of, any such alternative or additional electrical service provider for any good faith reason.
(f) Except as expressly set forth in Paragraph 5(j) below, in no event shall Landlord be liable or responsible for any loss, damage, expense or liability, including, without limitation, loss of business or any consequential damages, arising from any failure or inadequacy of the electrical service being provided to the Premises or the Building, whether resulting from any change, failure, interference, disruption, or defect in the supply or character of the electrical service furnished to the Premises or the Building, or arising from the partial or total unavailability of electrical service to the Premises or the Building, from any cause whatsoever, or otherwise, nor shall any such failure, inadequacy, change, interference, disruption, defect or unavailability constitute an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant, or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of Rent or otherwise relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease.

Tenant acknowledges and agrees that its tenancy and occupancy hereunder shall be subject to such rationing or restrictions as may be imposed upon Landlord, Tenant, the Premises, the Building and/or the Project, and Tenant shall in no event be excused or relieved from any covenant or obligation to be kept or performed by Tenant by reason of any such rationing or restrictions.

In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for any damage to the Premises or for any loss, damage or injury to any property therein or thereon occasioned by bursting, rupture, leakage or overflow of any plumbing or other pipes (including, without limitation, water, steam, and/or refrigerant lines), sprinklers, tanks, drains, drinking fountains or washstands, or other similar cause in, above, upon or about the Premises, the Building, or the Project.
(i) Landlord makes no representation with respect to the adequacy or fitness of the air conditioning or ventilation equipment in the Building to maintain temperatures which may be required for, or because of, any equipment of Tenant, other than normal fractional horsepower

office equipment, or occupancy of the Premises in excess of the Base Service Load. Tenant shall not, without Landlords prior written consent, use heat-generating machines, machines other than normal fractional horsepower office machines, equipment or lighting other than Building standard lights in the Premises, which may affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system or increase the water normally furnished for the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph 5. If such consent is given, Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air conditioning units or other facilities in the Premises, including supplementary or additional metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment and other similar charges, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing by Landlord. Tenants consumption of electricity shall not exceed the Buildings capacity considering all other tenants of the Building.
(j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Premises, or a material portion of the Premises, is made untenantable, inaccessible or unsuitable for the ordinary conduct of Tenants business, as a result of an interruption in any of the Basic Services provided by Landlord pursuant to Paragraph 5(a) above, then (i) Landlord shall use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to restore the same as soon as is reasonably possible, (ii) if, despite such commercially reasonable good faith efforts by Landlord, such interruption persists for a period in excess of three (3) consecutive Business Days, then Tenant, as its sole remedy, shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable hereunder during the period beginning on the fourth (4th) consecutive business day of such interruption and ending on the day the utility or service has been restored; provided, however, that in the event such interruption is not due to Landlords negligence or willful misconduct, then such abatement shall only apply to the extent Landlord collects proceeds under the policy of rental-loss insurance the cost of which has been included in Operating Expenses and the proceeds from which are allocable to the Premises.

6. LATE CHARGE
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenant hereby acknowledges that the late payment to Landlord of Rent, or other amounts due hereunder will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. If any Rent or other sums due from Tenant are not received by Landlord or by Landlords designated agent within five (5) days after their due date, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00) plus five percent (5%) of such overdue amount, plus any costs and attorneys fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenants failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder; provided, however, that in any twelve (12) consecutive month period, such late charge shall be waived (a) with respect to the first (1st) occurrence of a late payment of Base Rent, and (b) with respect to the first two (2) occurrences of a late payment of Additional Rent. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that such late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost that Landlord will incur by reason of Tenants late payment and shall not be construed as a penalty. Landlords acceptance of such late charges shall not constitute a waiver of Tenants default with respect to such overdue amount or estop Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted under this Lease.

7. SECURITY DEPOSIT (LETTER OF CREDIT)
(a) As collateral 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 for which Tenant is liable hereunder, Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, from time to time, the aggregate amount of all security deposits as determined, from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit E (as so determined, the Security Deposit). The Security Deposit shall be provided to Landlord either in the form of cash or in the form of one or more irrevocable and unconditional negotiable letter(s) of credit in a form reasonably approved by Landlord (each a Letter of Credit). For purposes of the initial Letter of Credit to be delivered by Tenant, Landlord approves of the form attached hereto as Exhibit G. At Tenants option, from time to time during the Term (but, following the end of the 24th month of the Term, not more frequently than one (1) time every twelve (12) months), Tenant may replace or substitute cash for a Letter of Credit, or vice versa, as all or portions of the Security Deposit. The Security Deposit for the Phase I Premises shall be paid to Landlord within five (5) Business Days of the full execution and delivery of this Lease. The Security Deposit for the Phase II Premises shall be paid to Landlord no later than the Commencement Date respecting the Phase II Premises.
(b) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by a money-center bank (a bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local office which will negotiate a letter of credit and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC) approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each Letter of Credit shall be (i) at sight and irrevocable; (ii) subject to the terms of this Paragraph 7, maintained in effect, whether through replacement, renewal or extension, for the entire period from the date of execution of this Lease through that date which is ninety (90) days following the expiration or earlier termination hereof, and to the extent the
20
Letter of Credit delivered to Landlord does not extend by its terms until the end of the Term, Tenant shall deliver a new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, without any action whatsoever on the part of Landlord; and (iii) fully assignable by Landlord in connection with a transfer of Landlords interest in this Lease and permit partial draws. In addition to the foregoing, any Letter of Credit shall provide that: (A) Landlord, or its then managing agent, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of any Letter of Credit upon the presentation to the issuing bank of Landlords (or Landlords then managing agents) written statement that such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this Lease and/or because Tenant failed to cause a new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to be delivered to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit; (B) the Letter of Credit will be honored by the issuing bank without inquiry as to the accuracy thereof and regardless of whether the Tenant disputes the content of such statement; and (C) in the event of a transfer of Landlords interest in this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the Letter of Credit, in whole or in part (or cause a substitute letter of credit to be delivered, as applicable) to the transferee and thereupon the Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties, be released by Tenant with respect to matters relating to the Letter of Credit arising after Landlords transfer. It is agreed that the provisions of this Paragraph 7(b) shall apply to every transfer or assignment of the whole or any portion of said Letter of Credit to a new Landlord.
(c) If the amount of the Security Deposit shall be less than the amount required by the terms of Exhibit E for any reason, including as a result of any expansion of the Premises or the application or use by Landlord of all or any part of the Security Deposit, then Tenant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of notice of the amount of the deficiency, provide Landlord with additional cash or Letter(s) of Credit in an amount equal to the deficiency (or a replacement Letter of Credit in the total amount then required by the terms of Exhibit E) and any such additional (or replacement) Letter of Credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Paragraph 7. If Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing, the same shall constitute a Default by Tenant. Tenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber any Letter of Credit or any part thereof 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 any Letter of Credit expires earlier than the expiration of the Term, Landlord will accept a renewal Letter of Credit or substitute Letter of Credit such renewal or substitute Letter of Credit to be in effect and delivered to Landlord, as applicable, not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of such Letter of Credit, which with respect to any Letter of Credit shall be irrevocable and automatically renewable as above provided through the expiration of the Term, upon the same terms as the expiring Letter of Credit or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion. However, if the Letter of Credit is not timely renewed thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit or a substitute Letter of Credit is not timely received within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit, or if Tenant fails to maintain the Letter of Credit in the amount and in accordance with the terms set forth in this Paragraph 7, then Landlord shall have the right to present the Letter of Credit to the bank in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 7, and the entire sum evidenced thereby shall be paid to and held by Landlord as a cash Security Deposit and as collateral for the performance of Tenants obligations under this Lease, and Tenant shall cause to be issued and delivered to Landlord within ten (10) days of
21
written notice to Tenant either cash or a replacement Letter of Credit, such that the aggregate Security Deposit held by Landlord shall be equal to the amount required pursuant to Exhibit E, and, the failure to do so shall constitute a Default by Tenant.
(d) If there shall occur a default (beyond applicable notice and cure periods, or if delivery of any such notice is prohibited by applicable law, without regard to any such notice and cure periods) under this Lease, then Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, apply cash funds from the Security Deposit or draw upon any Letter(s) of Credit, in part or in whole, to cure any such default of Tenant and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which may be sustained by Landlord resulting from such default by Tenant. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.7 and/or any successor statute, it being expressly agreed that Landlord may apply all or any portion of the Security Deposit, or proceeds thereof, in payment of any and all sums reasonably necessary to compensate Landlord as required by this Lease, and that following a Default by Tenant, all or any portion of the Security Deposit (including any Letter of Credit or proceeds), may be retained by Landlord following a termination of the Lease and applied to future damages, including damages for future rent, pending determination of the same. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of any Letter of Credit, either prior to 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 Landlords right to draw from 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 drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner.
8. POSSESSION
(a) Tenants Right of Possession. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 3(b) above and 8(b) below, Landlord shall deliver possession of the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises upon the respective Term Commencement Date of each such space. Landlord shall deliver possession of any additional space leased pursuant to the provisions of Paragraphs 58, 59 and 60 below.
(b) Early Access. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 8(a), Tenant shall be permitted to enter upon the Phase I Premises following mutual execution hereof; provided, however, that prior to any such entry, Tenant shall provide Landlord with proof of Tenants insurance as set forth in Paragraph 15 of this Lease. Such entry upon the Premises shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Lease, except that Tenant shall not be required to pay Base Rent or Additional Rent during such early occupancy period.
(c) Delay in Delivering Possession. If for any reason whatsoever, Landlord cannot deliver possession of any portion of the Premises (including the Phase I Premises, the Phase II Premises, or any additional space leased pursuant to Paragraphs 58, 59 and 60) to Tenant on or before the required date for delivery as set forth in this Lease, then, except as provided in Paragraph 8(d) below, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord, or Landlords agents, advisors, employees, partners, shareholders, directors, invitees, independent contractors or Landlords Investment Advisors (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, Landlords Agents), be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom. In the event the Phase I Premises or
22
the Phase II Premises is not timely delivered, then (i) Base Rent payable by Tenant respecting the Phase I Premises or the Phase II Premises, as applicable, shall be abated for the same number of days between the applicable Commencement Date and the date on which such possession is delivered, (ii) with respect to any additional space leased pursuant to Paragraphs 58, 59, or 60, Base Rent payable shall be abated for the same number of days between the applicable Commencement Date and the date of delivery of possession, and (iii) Tenant shall also be entitled to one (1) day of free Base Rent for every day late during the first thirty (30) days of delay, and two (2) days of free Base Rent for every day late thereafter (collectively, Free Base Rent Credits) in addition to the abatement of Base Rent as specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above. Except as provided in Paragraph 8(d) below, the aforesaid rights of abated Base Rent shall be the sole remedies available to Tenant as a result of Landlords delay in delivery of possession of any portion of the Premises.
(d) Failure to Deliver Possession; Cancellation Right. In the event that the Phase I Premises are not delivered to Tenant as provided herein, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, as its sole remedy, to cancel this Lease upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other; provided, however, if Landlord delivers the Phase I Premises to Tenant within ninety (90) of Tenants notice, then any such cancellation shall be vitiated and of no force and effect. Additionally, if Tenant exercises its right to lease additional space pursuant to the terms of Paragraphs 58, 59 and 60, and in the event Landlord fails to deliver the respective additional space subject to such exercise within the period pursuant to the applicable provision of this Lease, then either Landlord or Tenant shall have the right, as its sole remedy, to cancel its exercise to lease such space upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other; provided, however, if Landlord delivers such space to Tenant within ninety (90) of Tenant s notice, then any such cancellation shall be vitiated and of no force and effect. The aforesaid rights of termination shall be the sole remedies available to Tenant as a result of Landlords failure in delivery of possession.
9. USE OF PREMISES
(a) Permitted Use. The use of the Premises by Tenant and Tenants agents, advisors, employees, partners, shareholders, directors, customers, invitees and independent contractors (collectively, Tenants Agents) shall be solely for the Permitted Use specified in the Basic Lease Information and for no other use; provided, however, that Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to uses of portions of the Premises for childcare facilities, food service facilities or fitness center facilities that are ancillary to the Permitted Use and available for use only by Tenant and its employees. Tenant shall not permit any objectionable or unpleasant odor, smoke, dust, gas, noise or vibration to emanate from or near the Premises. The Premises shall not be used to create any nuisance or trespass, for any illegal purpose, for any purpose not permitted by Laws, for any purpose that would invalidate the insurance or increase the premiums for insurance on the Premises, the Building or the Project or for any purpose or in any manner that would interfere with other tenants use or occupancy of the Project. Tenant shall not conduct, or permit to be conducted, any sale by auction on the Premises or otherwise on the Project. If any of Tenants office machines or equipment unreasonably disturb any other tenant in the Building, then Tenant shall provide adequate insulation or take such other action as may be necessary to eliminate the noise or disturbance. Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, any increases in premiums on policies resulting from
23
Tenants Permitted Use or any other use or action by Tenant or Tenants Agents which increases Landlords premiums or requires additional coverage by Landlord to insure the Premises. Tenant agrees not to overload the floor(s) of the Building beyond the floor loads generally associated with the full occupancy and utilization of the Premises consistent with the Initial Alterations (hereinafter defined); provided, however, that if Tenant shall desire a floor load in excess of that which is contemplated by the Initial Alterations (e.g., installation of safes or file storage), then Tenant shall have the right to perform the work necessary to strengthen and reinforce the floor so as to give the live load desired, provided that (i) Tenant first obtains the written approval of Landlord with respect to the specific excess floor loading installation contemplated by Tenant and the method of installation and reinforcement proposed by Tenant, (ii) such reinforcement is fully concealed behind finished surfaces, and (iii) Tenant otherwise complies with the provisions of Paragraph 12.
(b) Compliance with Governmental Regulations and Private Restrictions. Tenant and Tenants Agents shall, at Tenants expense, faithfully observe and comply with (i) all municipal, state and federal laws, statutes, codes, rules, regulations, ordinances, requirements, and orders (collectively, Laws), now in force or which may hereafter be in force pertaining to the Premises or Tenants use of the Premises, the Building or the Project; (ii) all recorded covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the Project (Private Restrictions) in force as of the Lease Date, or subsequent amendments that have no material adverse impact on Tenants rights under this Lease or increase Tenants Rent or obligations; and (iii) the Rules and Regulations (as defined in Paragraph 42 of this Lease). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent Landlord is required by government authorities to maintain carpooling and public transit programs, Tenant shall cooperate in the implementation and use of these programs by and among Tenants employees. The final, non-appealable judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction, or the unequivocal admission of Tenant in any action or proceeding against Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any such Laws or Private Restrictions, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Subject to reimbursement pursuant to Paragraph 4 above, if any portion of the Building or Premises which is the responsibility of Landlord to maintain is required to be modified in order to comply with Laws, then such work shall be the responsibility of Landlord; provided, however, that if such work is required as a result of Tenants specific use of the Premises or any work or Alteration (as hereinafter defined) made by or on behalf of Tenant, then such work shall be performed by Landlord at the sole cost and expense of Tenant.
(c) Compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act. The Premises, the Building and/or the Project may be subject to, among other Laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq., including, but not limited to, Title III thereof, and all regulations and guidelines related thereto, together with any and all laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes and statutes now or hereafter enacted by local or state agencies having jurisdiction thereof, including, without limitation, all requirements of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, as the same may be in effect on the date of this Lease and may be hereafter modified, amended or supplemented (collectively, the ADA). Any Tenant Improvements and Alterations to be constructed hereunder shall comply with the ADA, and all costs incurred to comply therewith shall be a part of and included in the cost of the Tenant Improvements or Alterations, as applicable. Tenant shall be solely responsible for conducting its own independent investigation of this matter and for ensuring that the design of all Tenant Improvements and Alterations strictly complies with all
24
requirements of the ADA. Subject to reimbursement pursuant to Paragraph 4 above, if any barrier removal work or other work is required to the Building, the Common Areas or the Project under the ADA, then such work shall be the responsibility of Landlord; provided, however, that if such work is required under the ADA as a result of Tenants specific use of the Premises or any work or Alteration (as hereinafter defined) made to the Project by or on behalf of Tenant, then such work shall be performed by Landlord at the sole cost and expense of Tenant. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and expense for fully and faithfully complying with all applicable requirements of the ADA within the Premises. Within ten (10) days after receipt, Tenant shall advise Landlord in writing, and provide Landlord with copies of (as applicable), any notices alleging violation of the ADA relating to any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project; any claims made by government authorities in writing or orally regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any portion of the Premises, the Building, or the Project; or any governmental or regulatory actions or investigations instituted or threatened regarding noncompliance with the ADA and relating to any portion of the Premises, the Building or the Project.
(d) Roof Access. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the non-exclusive right (it being understood that Landlord may grant, extend or renew similar rights to others) to install, maintain, and from time to time replace a satellite dish (a Dish) on the roof of the Building, provided that prior to commencing any installation or maintenance, Tenant shall (i) obtain Landlords prior approval of the proposed size, weight and location of the Dish and method for fastening the Dish to the roof, (ii) such installation and/or replacement shall comply strictly with all Laws and the conditions of any bond or warranty maintained by Landlord on the roof, (iii) use the Dish solely for its internal use, (iv) not grant any right to use of the Dish to any other party, and (v) obtain and maintain in effect, at Tenants sole cost and expense, any necessary federal, state, and municipal permits, licenses and approvals, and deliver copies thereof to Landlord. Landlord may supervise or perform any roof penetration related to the installation of a Dish, and Landlord may charge the cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant agrees that all installation, construction and maintenance shall be performed in a neat, responsible, and workmanlike manner, using generally acceptable construction standards, consistent with such reasonable requirements as shall be imposed by Landlord. Tenant further agrees to label each cable or wire placed by Tenant in the telecommunications pathways of the Building, with identification information as required by Landlord. Tenant shall repair any damage to the Building caused by Tenants installation, maintenance, replacement, use or removal of the Dish. The Dish shall remain the property of Tenant, and Tenant may remove the Dish at its cost at any time during the Term. Tenant shall remove the Dish at Tenants cost and expense upon the expiration or termination of this Lease. Tenant agrees that the Dish, and any wires, cables or connections relating thereto, and the installation, maintenance and operation thereof shall in no way interfere with the use and enjoyment of the Building, or the operation of communications (including, without limitation, other satellite dishes) or computer devices by Landlord or by other tenants or occupants of the Project. If such interference shall occur, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice thereof and Tenant shall correct the same within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of such notice. Landlord reserves the right to disconnect power to any Dish if Tenant fails to correct such interference within twenty-four (24) hours after such notice. Landlord makes no warranty or representation that the Building or any portions thereof are suitable for the use of a Dish, it being assumed that Tenant has satisfied itself thereof. Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and Landlords Agents from and against claims, damages, liabilities, costs and
25
expenses of every kind and nature, including attorneys fees, incurred by or asserted against Landlord arising out of Tenants installation, maintenance, replacement, use or removal of the Dish. Tenants obligations under this paragraph shall survive any termination of this Lease.
(e) Emergency Generator. Landlord agrees to consider in good faith any request by Tenant to install an emergency back-up generator to service the Premises in the located depicted in Exhibit I hereto. Any such installation, maintenance and use by Tenant of a back-up generator system shall be subject to any commercially reasonable terms and conditions as may be imposed by Landlord, including, without limitation, reimbursement by Tenant of any third party consultant or attorneys fees incurred by Landlord in connection therewith; provided, however, that Landlord shall not charge Tenant any monthly recurring charge in connection with the same.
10. ACCEPTANCE OF PREMISES
(a) By accepting Landlords delivery of the same, Tenant acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to fully inspect the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises, including, but not limited to, conducting any desired testing.
(b) By execution hereof, Tenant accepts the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises as suitable for Tenants intended use and as being in good and sanitary operating order, condition and repair, AS IS, and without representation or warranty by Landlord as to the condition, use or occupancy which may be made thereof.

Any claims by Tenant under the preceding sentence shall be made in writing not later than the one hundred eightieth (180th) day after delivery of possession of the respective Premises to Tenant. In the event Tenant fails to deliver a written claim to Landlord on or before such one hundred eightieth (180th) day, then Landlord shall be conclusively deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this Paragraph 10(c). Landlords obligations under this Paragraph 10(c) shall specifically exclude any obligation to repair any damage caused to the Systems by Tenant or Tenants Agents.
11. SURRENDER
Tenant agrees that on the last day of the Term, or on the sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord (a) in good condition and repair (damage by acts of God, fire, and normal wear and tear excepted) and (b) otherwise in accordance with Paragraph 33(f). Normal wear and tear shall not include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by proper maintenance by Tenant, or Tenant otherwise performing all of its obligations under this Lease. On or before the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, (i) Tenant shall remove all of Tenants Property (as hereinafter defined), and Tenants signage from the Premises, the Building and the Project and repair any damage caused by such removal, and (ii) Landlord may, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 12(g) below, by notice to Tenant
26
given not later than ninety (90) days prior to the Expiration Date (except in the event of a termination of this Lease prior to the scheduled Expiration Date, in which event no advance notice shall be required), require Tenant at Tenants expense to remove any or all Alterations and/or any Tenant Improvements constructed and installed pursuant to Exhibit B hereto that Landlord has not consented to or that Landlord has not informed Tenant may remain in the Premises pursuant to Paragraph 12(h) below, and to repair any damage caused by such removal; however, Tenant shall have no obligation to remove the Initial Alterations specified in Paragraph 12(i) below. Any of Tenants Property not so removed by Tenant as required herein shall be deemed abandoned and may be stored, removed, and disposed of by Landlord at Tenants expense, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any damages resulting from Landlords retention and disposition of such property; provided, however, that Tenant shall remain liable to Landlord for all costs actually incurred and paid to third parties in storing and disposing of such abandoned property of Tenant. All Tenant Improvements and Alterations except those which Landlord requires Tenant to remove shall remain in the Premises as the property of Landlord.
12. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS
(a) Tenant shall not make, or permit to be made, any alteration, addition or improvement (hereinafter referred to individually as an Alteration and collectively as the Alterations) to the Premises or any part thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Landlord shall have the right in Landlords sole and absolute discretion to consent or to withhold its consent to any Alteration which would adversely affect the structural portions of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the Systems serving the Premises, the Building and/or the Project or any portion thereof. Landlord acknowledges that Landlord has approved Tenants Plans for the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises Tenant Improvements as specified in Paragraph 12(i) below.
(b) Subject to any applicable Tenant Improvement Allowance payable by Landlord, any Alteration to the Premises shall be at Tenants sole cost and expense, in compliance with all applicable Laws and all reasonable requirements requested by Landlord, including, without limitation, the requirements of any insurer providing coverage for the Premises or the Project or any part thereof, and in accordance with plans and specifications approved in writing by Landlord, and shall be constructed and installed by a Tenant contractor approved in writing by Landlord. Landlord hereby approves Wilcox and Company to act as Tenants general contractor (and the subcontractors of Wilcox and Company) in performing any Alterations (including any Tenant Improvements) constructed during the twelve (12) month period following the Lease Date. In connection with any Alteration, Tenant shall deliver plans and specifications therefore to Landlord. As a further condition to giving consent to any Alterations (except Tenant Improvements), Landlord may reasonably require Tenant to provide Landlord, at Tenants sole cost and expense, a payment and performance bond in form acceptable to Landlord, in a principal amount not less than one and one-half times the estimated costs of any Alterations that are reasonably expected to cost in excess of two (2) months Base Rent (net of any available Tenant Improvement Allowance), to ensure Landlord against any liability for mechanics and materialmens liens and to ensure completion of work. Before Alterations may begin, valid building permits or other required permits or licenses must be furnished to Landlord, and, once the Alterations begin, Tenant (or Tenants contractor) will diligently and continuously pursue
27
their completion, subject to force majeure events. Landlord may monitor construction of the Alterations and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for its reasonable actual third-party costs (including, without limitation, the costs of any construction manager retained by Landlord) in reviewing plans and documents and in monitoring construction. Tenant shall cause to be maintained during the course of construction, at its sole cost and expense, Builders Risk insurance for the amount of the completed value of the Alterations but not in excess of the contract sum covering all improvements under construction, including building materials. In addition to and without limitation on the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall ensure that its contractor(s) procure and maintain in full force and effect during the course of construction a broad form commercial general liability and property damage policy of insurance naming Landlord, Tenant, Landlords Investment Adviser, any property manager designated by Landlord and Landlords lenders as additional insureds. The minimum limit of coverage of the aforesaid policy shall be in the amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of one person in anyone accident or occurrence and in the amount of not less than Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) for injury or death of more than one person in anyone accident or occurrence, and shall contain a severability of interest clause or a cross liability endorsement. Such insurance shall further insure Landlord and Tenant against liability for property damage of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00).
(c) All Alterations, including, but not limited to, heating, lighting, electrical, air conditioning, fixed partitioning, drapery, wall covering and paneling, built-in cabinet work and carpeting installations made by Tenant shall at once be and become the property of Landlord, and shall not be deemed trade fixtures or Tenants Property.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that Tenant installs any equipment or lights which generate heat or require electrical service in the Premises which exceeds the Basic Services, Tenant shall obtain the written permission of Landlord, which permission will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord may refuse to grant such permission unless Tenant agrees to pay the costs to Landlord for installation of supplementary air conditioning capacity or electrical systems necessitated by such equipment. Provided Tenant fully complies with the terms and conditions of Paragraphs 12(a) through 12(i), Landlord approves Tenants installation, at Tenants sole cost and expense, of a separate electrical submeter (i.e., an E-mon D-mon) for measuring electrical service to Tenants IT server room (Tenant Server Room) located in the Phase I Premises. All electrical service for such Tenant Server Room shall be paid by Tenant as an extra service.
(e) Tenant agrees not to proceed to make any Alterations, notwithstanding consent from Landlord to do so, until Tenant notifies Landlord in advance in writing of the date Tenant desires to commence construction or installation of such Alterations and Landlord has approved such date in writing, in order that Landlord may post appropriate notices to avoid any liability to contractors or material suppliers for payment for Tenants improvements. Tenant will at all times permit such notices to be posted and to remain posted until the completion of work.
(f) Tenant shall not, at any time prior to or during the Term, directly or indirectly employ, or permit the employment of, any contractor, mechanic or laborer in the Premises, whether in connection with any Alteration or otherwise, if it is reasonably foreseeable that such employment will materially interfere or cause any material conflict with other contractors, mechanics, or
28
laborers engaged in the construction, maintenance or operation of the Project by Landlord, Tenant or others. In the event of any such interference or conflict, Tenant, upon demand of Landlord, shall cause all contractors, mechanics or laborers causing such interference or conflict to leave the Project immediately.
(g) Tenant shall not use or employ materials that are susceptible to the growth of mold, particularly in areas where moisture accumulation is common.
(h) At the time of requesting Landlords consent to any Alterations (except the Initial Alterations), Tenant shall have the right to request that Landlord inform Tenant whether such Alterations may remain in the Premises following, or must be removed from the Premises prior to, the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.
(i) Tenant has notified Landlord that Tenant desires to perform certain Alterations to the Phase I Premises and the Phase II Premises (collectively, the Initial Alterations) as described in those certain Drawings (as such term is defined in the Approved Construction Contract, as defined below) referenced and described in that certain Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor (AIA AIOI-2007), dated September 1, 2008 entered into by and between Tenant, as Owner, and Wilcox & Company, Inc., as Contractor (the Approved Construction Contract). Landlord has generally approved the Initial Alterations and Tenant shall have the right to make the Initial Alterations to the Premises provided that Tenant fully complies with the terms and conditions of Paragraphs 12(a) through 12(i) and the terms and conditions of Exhibit B. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in no event shall Tenant be required to remove the Initial Alterations.
13. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS OF PREMISES

Subject to Paragraphs 10(c), 13(b), 21 and 22 hereof, Tenant shall, at Tenants sole expense, (i) keep and maintain in good order and condition the Premises and Tenants Property, (ii) keep and maintain in good order and condition, repair and replace all of Tenants security systems in or about or serving the Premises, and (iii) maintain and replace all specialty lamps, bulbs, starters and ballasts. Tenant shall not do nor shall Tenant allow Tenants Agents to do anything to cause any damage, deterioration or unsightliness to the Premises, the Building or the Project.
(b) Maintenance by Landlord. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 13(a), 21 and 22, and further subject to Tenants obligation under Paragraph 4 to reimburse Landlord, in the form of Additional Rent, for Tenants Proportionate Share(s) of the cost and expense of the following items, Landlord shall repair, replace and maintain as a First-Class Building the following items: the roof coverings (provided that Tenant installs no additional air conditioning or other equipment on the roof that damages the roof coverings, in which event Tenant shall pay all costs resulting from the presence of such additional equipment); routine cleaning of exterior glass; the Systems serving the Premises (excluding any specialty systems installed by or for Tenant) and the Building; and the Common Areas including the Parking Areas, pavement, landscaping, sprinkler systems, sidewalks, driveways, curbs, and common lighting systems. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 13(a), 21 and 22, Landlord, at Landlords own cost and expense, agrees to repair and maintain the following items: the structural portions of the roof (specifically
29
excluding the roof coverings), the foundation, the footings, the floor slab, and the load bearing walls and exterior walls of the Building (excluding any glass and any routine maintenance, including, without limitation, any painting, sealing, patching and waterproofing of such walls, which shall be performed as necessary by Landlord as an Operating Expense, subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 4(c)). Notwithstanding anything in this Paragraph 13 to the contrary, but subject to the waiver of subrogation specified in Paragraph 17 below, Landlord shall have the right to either repair (but only after giving written notice to Tenant and an opportunity to cure within a reasonable time) or to require Tenant to repair any damage to any portion of the Premises, the Building and/or the Project caused by or created due to any act, omission, negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or Tenants Agents, and, thus, to restore the Premises, the Building and/or the Project, as applicable, to the condition existing prior to the occurrence of such damage; provided, however, that in the event Landlord elects to perform such repair and restoration work, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in connection therewith. Landlords obligation hereunder to repair and maintain is subject to the condition precedent that Landlord shall have actual knowledge (or, in the exercise of reasonable care, should have had actual knowledge) of the need for such repairs and maintenance and a reasonable time to perform such repair and maintenance. Tenant shall promptly report in writing to Landlord any defective condition actually known to it which Landlord is required to repair, and failure to so report such defects shall make Tenant responsible to Landlord for any damage which could have reasonably been avoided had Tenant promptly reported such defective condition as required herein.
(c) Tenants Waiver of Rights. Tenant hereby expressly waives all rights to make repairs at the expense of Landlord or to terminate this Lease, as provided for in California Civil Code Sections 1941 and 1942, and 1932(1), respectively, and any similar or successor statute or law in effect or any amendment thereof during the Term.

Landlord may from time to time require reasonable increases in any such limits if consistent with practices of First-Class Buildings. The policy limits of any insurance shall not limit the liability of Tenant hereunder. No policy maintained by Tenant under this Paragraph 15(a) shall contain a deductible greater than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00). Such policies of insurance shall be issued as primary policies and not contributing with or in excess of coverage that Landlord may carry, by an insurance company authorized to do business in the state/commonwealth in which the Premises are located for the issuance of such type of insurance coverage and rated B+:VIII, or better, in Bests Key Rating Guide.

Tenant shall, at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of each policy, furnish Landlord with certificates of renewal thereof. Each certificate shall expressly provide that such policies shall not be cancelable or otherwise subject to modification except after thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord and the other parties named as additional insureds as required in this Lease (except for cancellation for nonpayment of premium, in which event cancellation shall not take effect until at least ten (10) days notice has been given to Landlord).
16. INDEMNIFICATION
(a) Of Landlord. Subject to the terms of Paragraph 17 below, Tenant shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and Landlords Agents against and from any and all claims, suits, liabilities, judgments, costs, demands, causes of action and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements) arising from (i) the use of the Premises, the Building or the Project by Tenant or Tenants Agents, or from any activity done, permitted or suffered by Tenant or Tenants Agents in or about the Premises, the Building or the Project, and (ii) any act, neglect, fault, willful misconduct or omission of Tenant or Tenants Agents, or from any breach or default in the terms of this Lease by Tenant or Tenants Agents, and (iii) any action or proceeding brought on account of any matter in items (i) or (ii); however, the foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to the extent any claims arising by reason of the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlords Agents. If any action or proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, upon notice from Landlord, Tenant shall defend the same at Tenants expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. As a material part of the consideration to Landlord, Tenant hereby releases Landlord and Landlords Agents from responsibility for, waives its entire claim of recovery for and assumes all risk of (A) damage to property or injury to persons in or about the Premises, the Building or the Project from any cause whatsoever (except to the extent is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlords Agents or by the failure of Landlord to observe any of the terms and conditions of this Lease, if such failure has persisted for an unreasonable period of time after written notice of such failure), or (B) loss resulting from business interruption or loss of income at the Premises. The obligations of Tenant under this Paragraph 16 shall survive any termination of this Lease.
(b) Of Tenant. Subject to the terms of Paragraph 17 below, Landlord shall indemnify and hold harmless Tenant and Tenants Agents against and from any and all claims, suits, liabilities, judgments, costs, demands, causes of action and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlords Agents.
(c) No Impairment of Insurance. The foregoing indemnities shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under any policies required to be carried by either party pursuant to this Lease, to the extent that such policies cover the peril or occurrence that results in the claim that is subject to the foregoing indemnity.
32
17. SUBROGATION
Landlord and Tenant hereby mutually waive any claim against the other and its agent(s) for any loss or damage to any of their property located on or about the Premises, the Building or the Project that is caused by or results from perils covered by property insurance required to be carried by the respective parties, to the extent of the proceeds of such insurance actually received with respect to such loss or damage, whether or not due to the negligence of the other party or its Agents. Because the foregoing waivers will preclude the assignment of any claim by way of subrogation to an insurance company or any other person, each party shall immediately notify its insurer, in writing, of the terms of these mutual waivers and have their insurance policies endorsed to prevent the invalidation of the insurance coverage because of these waivers. Nothing in this Paragraph 17 shall relieve a party of liability to the other for failure to carry insurance required by this Lease.
18. SIGNS
(a) Project Standard Signage. Effective as of the Lease Date, Tenant shall be entitled to the following Building standard signage to be installed by Landlord at Tenants sole cost and expense: (i) directory signage in the Building lobby, (ii) suite directional signage in the floor elevator lobby of each floor occupied by Tenant, and (iii) suite signage at the entrance to the Premises.

Tenant shall, at Tenants sole cost and expense, design, construct and install the Eyebrow Signage and Lobby Signage. Tenant shall maintain the Eyebrow Signage and Lobby Signage in good condition and repair, and all costs of maintenance and repair shall be borne solely by Tenant. Maintenance shall include, without limitation, cleaning and, if the Eyebrow Signage or Lobby Signage is illuminated, relamping at reasonable intervals. Tenant shall be responsible for any electrical energy used in connection with the Eyebrow Signage or Lobby Signage.
(ii) At Landlords option, Tenants right to the Eyebrow Signage or Lobby Signage may be revoked and terminated upon occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Tenant is in Default; (b) Tenant, any Permitted Transferee, or Subtenant/assignee occupy less than two (2) full floors of the Building; or (c) Tenant assigns this Lease (other than a Permitted Transferee) to a party who occupies less than two (2) full floors of the Building. Unless otherwise agreed by Landlord in writing in its sole discretion, the rights provided in this Paragraph l8(b) shall be non-transferable, except to a Permitted Transferee or any assignee approved by Landlord in accordance with Paragraph 23 who occupies at least two (2) full floors of the Building.
33
(c) Monument Signage.
(i) Subject to the rights of any existing tenants of the Building, Tenant shall have the right to have its name listed on the shared monument sign for the Building (the Monument Sign); provided, however, Tenants rights to such Monument Sign shall become exclusive if no other tenant leases at least one (1) full floor in the Building unless such tenant has rights to the Monument Sign existing as of the Lease Date. Landlord shall have the right to require that all names on the Monument Sign be of the same size. Tenants right to place its name on the Monument Sign, and the location of Tenants name on the Monument Sign, shall be subject to the existing rights of existing tenants in the Building, and the location of Tenants name on the Monument Sign shall be further subject to Landlords reasonable approval. Although the Monument Sign will be maintained by Landlord, Tenant shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of any maintenance and repair associated with the Monument Sign. As long as Tenant (including Permitted Transferees and subtenants) occupies more Rentable Area in the Building than any other tenant, Tenant shall have the right to dictate its placement on the Monument Sign. In the event that additional names are listed on the Monument Sign, all costs of maintenance and repair shall be prorated between Tenant and the other parties that are listed on such Monument Sign. Except if Tenant (including Permitted Transferees and subtenants) occupies more Rentable Area in the Building than any other tenant, Landlord may, at anytime during the Lease Term (or any extension thereof), upon five (5) days prior written notice to Tenant, relocate the position of Tenants name on the Monument Sign. The cost of such relocation of Tenants name shall be at the cost and expense of Landlord.
(ii) At Landlords option, Tenants right to the Monument Signage may be revoked and terminated upon occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Tenant is in Default; (b) Tenant, any Permitted Transferee, or subtenant/assignee occupy less than two (2) full floors of the Building; or (c) Tenant assigns this Lease (other than a Permitted Transferee) to a party who occupies less than two (2) full floors of the Building. Unless otherwise agreed by Landlord in writing in its sole discretion, the rights provided in this Paragraph 18(c) shall be non-transferable, except to a Permitted Transferee or any assignee approved by Landlord in accordance with Paragraph 23 who occupies at least two (2) full floors of the Building.
(d) Parapet Signage.
(i) Effective as of the Commencement Date respecting the Phase II Premises, Tenant shall be entitled to one (1) tenant identification sign (which sign shall be non-exclusive parapet signage on the Building) if Tenant occupies at least two (2) full floors of the Building, and two (2) Tenant identification signs (which two (2) signs shall be the exclusive parapet signage on the Building) during any period in which Tenant occupies at least three (3) full floors of the Building; provided, however, that notwithstanding any occupancy by Tenant of three (3) full floors of the Building, in the event any other tenant of the Building occupies two (2) full floors of the Building, then Tenant shall only be entitled to one (1) tenant identification sign (such identification signage, the Parapet Signage). Any such Parapet Signage shall be located in the same general area as preexisting parapet signage on the Building, and the size, color and design of which shall be subject to Landlords prior written approval; however, in the event Tenant is entitled to exclusive parapet signage on the Building as set forth herein, then Tenant shall be entitled to choose the location of the Parapet Signage, subject to Landlords reasonable approval. Tenant shall, at Tenants sole cost and expense, design, construct and install the Parapet Signage. Tenant shall maintain the Parapet Signage in good condition and repair, and all costs of maintenance and repair shall be borne solely by Tenant. Maintenance shall include, without limitation, cleaning and, if the Parapet Signage is illuminated, relamping at reasonable intervals. Tenant shall be responsible for any electrical energy used in connection with the Parapet Signage.
34
(ii) At Landlords option, Tenants right to the Parapet Signage may be revoked and terminated upon occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Tenant is in Default; (b) Tenant, any Permitted Transferee, or Subtenant/assignee occupy less than two (2) full floors of the Building; or (c) Tenant assigns this Lease (other than a Permitted Transferee) to a party who occupies less than two (2) full floors of the Building. Unless otherwise agreed by Landlord in writing in its sole discretion, the rights provided in this Paragraph 18(d) shall be non-transferable, except to a Permitted Transferee or any assignee approved by Landlord in accordance with Paragraph 23 who occupies at least two (2) full floors of the Building.
(e) General Requirements. Tenant shall not place or permit to be placed in, upon, or about the Premises, the Building or the Project any exterior lights, decorations, balloons, flags, pennants, banners, advertisements or notices, or erect or install any signs, windows or door lettering, placards, decorations, or advertising media of any type which can be viewed from the exterior of the Premises without obtaining Landlords prior written consent or without complying with Landlords signage criteria, as the same may be modified by Landlord from time to time (the Signage Criteria) and without complying with all applicable Laws (including, without limitation, obtaining any required consent of the City of Pleasanton or any other public authorities having jurisdiction). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant must obtain Landlords written consent as to the design, size and color of Tenants signage and the manner in which it is attached to the Project prior to its fabrication and installation. To obtain Landlords consent, Tenant shall submit design drawings to Landlord showing the type and sizes of all lettering; the colors, finishes and types of materials used; and (if applicable and Landlord consents in its sole discretion) any provisions for illumination. Landlord reserves the right to withhold consent to any sign that, in the good faith judgment of Landlord, is offensive, political or otherwise not harmonious with First-Class Buildings. Subject to the requirements contained in this Paragraph 18, Landlord has generally approved the aesthetics of the signage as shown on Exhibit J hereto. Upon the expiration of the Term or sooner termination of this Lease or at such other time that any of Tenants signage rights are terminated pursuant to the terms of this Paragraph 18, Tenant shall remove any such signage and repair any damage or injury to the Premises, the Building or the Project caused thereby (including, if necessary, the replacement of any precast concrete panels), all at Tenants sole cost and expense. If any signs are not removed, or necessary repairs are not made, then Landlord shall have the right to remove and dispose of such sign(s) and repair any damage or injury to the Premises, the Building or the Project at Tenants sole cost and expense. Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses for such removal and restoration within five (5) Business Days following delivery of an invoice therefore.
19. FREE FROM LIENS
Tenant shall keep the Premises, the Building and the Project free from any liens arising out of any work performed, material furnished or obligations incurred by or for Tenant. In the event that Tenant shall not, within twenty (20) days following Landlords notice to Tenant of such lien, cause the lien to be released of record by payment or posting of a proper bond, Landlord shall have, in addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right (but not the obligation) to cause same to be released by such reasonable means as it shall deem proper,
35
including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All such sums paid by Landlord and all reasonable expenses incurred by it in connection therewith (including, without limitation, attorneys fees) shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant within twenty (20) days of demand. Landlord shall reasonably have the right at all times to post and keep posted on the Premises any notices permitted or required by law or that Landlord shall reasonably deem proper for the protection of Landlord, the Premises, the Building and the Project, from mechanics and materialmens liens. Tenant shall give to Landlord at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the commencement of any repair or construction on the Premises.
20. ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Tenant shall permit Landlord and Landlords Agents to enter into and upon the Premises at all reasonable times, following at least forty-eight (48) hours prior notice, which may be telephonic, (except in the case of an emergency or scheduled services, for which no notice shall be required), and subject to Tenants reasonable security arrangements, for the purpose of inspecting the same or showing the Premises to prospective purchasers, lenders or, during the last two hundred seventy (270) days of the Term, tenants or to alter, improve, maintain and repair the Premises or the Building as required or permitted by Landlord under the terms hereof, or for any other business purpose, without any rebate of Rent and without any liability to Tenant for any loss of occupation or quiet enjoyment of the Premises thereby occasioned (except for actual damages resulting from the sole active gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord); and Tenant shall permit Landlord to post notices of non-responsibility and ordinary for sale or for lease signs. No such entry shall be construed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant from the Premises. Landlord may temporarily close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators or other facilities without liability to Tenant by reason of such closure in the case of an emergency and when Landlord otherwise deems such closure necessary. Except in emergency situations, as determined by Landlord, Landlord shall exercise reasonable efforts to perform any entry into the Premises in a manner that is reasonably designed to minimize interference with the operation of Tenants business in the Premises.
21. DESTRUCTION AND DAMAGE
(a) Insured Damage. If the Premises, the Building or the Project are damaged by fire or other perils required to be covered by Landlords Casualty Insurance, then provided this Lease is not terminated by either Landlord or Tenant pursuant to the express terms of this Paragraph 21, Landlord shall repair and restore the Premises (including Tenants Alterations) and prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
(i) If such repair and restoration requires longer than one (1) year from the date Landlord obtains actual knowledge of such destruction (Casualty Discovery Date), then either Landlord or, if such damage materially impairs Tenants ability to continue its business operations in the Premises, then Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease by written notice to the other. Landlords architect shall issue its reasonable opinion of the duration of the restoration period and the extent of the damage and estimated restoration cost (Architects Estimate) within sixty (60) days after the Casualty Discovery Date, and Landlord and Tenant shall exercise their right to terminate pursuant to this Paragraph 21(a)(i), if at all, within thirty (30) days after receipt of Architects Estimate.
36
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Paragraph 21, in the event of damage to more than twenty-five percent (25%) of any floor of the Premises occurring during the last twelve (12) months of the Term, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease as to the damaged Premises by written notice of such election given to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the Casualty Discovery Date; provided, however, that Tenant may vitiate and cancel such termination election by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 21(a)(ii) by exercising any applicable Renewal Option as to the entirety of the Premises by notice to Landlord within thirty (30) days of receipt of Landlords notice of cancellation.
(b) Uninsured Damage. If any portion of the Premises are damaged by any peril not required to be covered by Landlords Casualty Insurance, and the cost to repair such damage exceeds by Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) any uninsured amount Tenant may agree to contribute, then Landlord may elect either to promptly commence to repair and restore the Premises and prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease shall remain in full force and effect; or not to repair or restore the Premises, in which event this Lease shall terminate. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its intention within sixty (60) days after the Casualty Discovery Date. If Landlord elects not to restore the Premises, this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the date on which Tenant surrenders possession of the Premises to Landlord, except that if the damage to the Premises materially impairs Tenants ability to continue its business operations in the Premises, then this Lease shall be deemed to have terminated as of the date such damage occurred. If the cost to repair such Premises does not exceed by Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) any uninsured amount Tenant may agree to contribute, then Landlord shall promptly commence to repair the Premises and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect.
(c) Additional Landlord Termination Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 21, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease, exercisable by notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days after issuance of Architects Estimate under the following circumstances:

(ii) There shall be damage, resulting from a risk other than an insured risk, to an extent greater than ten percent (10%) of the replacement cost of the Building above the foundation; or
(iii) There shall be damage to the Project in a loss amount of at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) that cannot be repaired within twelve (12) months after the Casualty Discovery Date as reasonably estimated by Landlords architect in the Architects Estimate.
37
(d) Landlords Failure to Restore. If Landlord is required to restore the Premises and fails to diligently commence and pursue same, or fails to complete the restoration with one (1) year from the Casualty Discovery Date, then Tenant, at Tenants option, shall have the right to terminate this Lease as to the damaged portion of the Premises, or if the damage to the Premises materially impairs Tenants ability to continue its business operations in the remainder (i.e., the undamaged portion) of the Premises then as to the entire Premises, by written notice to Landlord within fifteen (15) months after the Casualty Discovery Date, provided that Landlord does not complete the restoration prior to Tenants cancellation notice.
(e) Abatement of Rent. In the event of repair and restoration as herein provided, all monthly installments of Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated proportionately in the ratio which Tenants use of the Premises is impaired during the period of such repair or restoration; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to such abatement to the extent that such damage or destruction resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or Tenants Agents. Except as expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to abatement of Base Rent and Additional Rent, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for, and hereby releases Landlord and Landlords Agents from responsibility for and waives its entire claim of recovery for any cost, loss or expense suffered or incurred by Tenant as a result of any damage to or destruction of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the repair or restoration thereof, including, without limitation, any cost, loss or expense resulting from any loss of use of the whole or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project and/or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration.
(f) Tenants Waiver. Tenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1932(2) and Section 1933(4) which permit termination of a lease upon destruction of the leased premises, and the provisions of any similar law now or hereinafter in effect, and the provisions of this Paragraph 21 shall govern exclusively in case of such destruction.
(g) Insurance Proceeds. The proceeds from any insurance paid by reason of damage to or destruction of the Building or any part thereof, or any other element, component or property insured by Landlord shall belong to and be paid to Landlord. The proceeds from any insurance paid by reason of damage to or destruction of Tenants Personal Property shall belong to and be paid to Tenant.
(h) Global Termination Right. In the event Tenant has a termination right as to the entirety of the Premises pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph 21, then Tenants termination right shall extend to all the Premises included in this Lease, whether the Term for such Premises has or has not commenced.
22. CONDEMNATION
(a) If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of either the Premises, the Building or the Project or the Parking Areas is permanently taken for any public or quasi-public purpose by any lawful governmental power or authority, by exercise of the right of appropriation, inverse condemnation, condemnation or eminent domain, or sold to prevent such taking (each such event being referred to as a Condemnation), Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease as of the date title vests in the condemning party. If twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the
38
Premises is taken and if the Premises remaining after such Condemnation and any repairs by Landlord would be untenantable (in Tenants reasonable opinion) for the conduct of Tenants business operations, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease as of the date title vests in the condemning party. If either party elects to terminate this Lease as provided herein, such election shall be made by written notice to the other party given within thirty (30) days after the nature and extent of such Condemnation have been finally determined. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects to terminate this Lease to the extent permitted above, Landlord shall promptly proceed to restore the Premises, to the extent of any Condemnation award received by Landlord, to substantially the same condition as existed prior to such Condemnation, allowing for the reasonable effects of such Condemnation, and a proportionate abatement shall be made to the Base Rent and Expenses corresponding to the time during which, and to the portion of the floor area of the Premises (adjusted for any increase thereto resulting from any reconstruction) of which, Tenant is deprived on account of such Condemnation and restoration, as reasonably determined by Landlord. Except as expressly provided in the immediately preceding sentence with respect to abatement of Base Rent (and Expenses to the extent of a reduction in the Rentable Area), Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for, and hereby releases Landlord and Landlords Agents from responsibility for and waives its entire claim of recovery for any cost, loss or expense suffered or incurred by Tenant as a result of any Condemnation, whether permanent or temporary, or the repair or restoration of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the Parking Areas following such Condemnation, including, without limitation, any cost, loss or expense resulting from any loss of use of the whole or any part of the Premises, the Building, the Project or the Parking Areas and/or any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned by such Condemnation, repair or restoration. The provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.130, which allows either party to petition the Superior Court to terminate this Lease in the event of a partial taking of the Premises, the Building or the Project or the Parking Areas, and any other applicable law now or hereafter enacted, are hereby waived by Tenant.
(b) Landlord shall be entitled to any and all compensation, damages, income, rent, awards, or any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with any Condemnation, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord for the value of any unexpired Term of this Lease or otherwise; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to receive any award separately allocated by the condemning authority to Tenant for Tenants relocation expenses or the value of Tenants Property (specifically excluding fixtures, Alterations and other components of the Premises which under this Lease or by law are or at the expiration of the Term will become the property of Landlord), provided that such award does not reduce any award otherwise allocable or payable to Landlord.
(c) In the event Tenant has a termination right pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph 22, Tenants termination right shall extend to all the Premises then included in this Lease, whether the Term for such Premises has or has not commenced.
23. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
(a) Tenant shall not voluntarily or by operation of law, (i) mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or encumber this Lease or any interest herein, (ii) assign or transfer this Lease or any interest herein, sublease the Premises or any part thereof, or any right or privilege appurtenant thereto, or otherwise allow any other person (the employees and invitees of Tenant excepted) to occupy or
39
use the Premises, or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, as set forth below in this Paragraph 23; provided, however, that Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease nor is any event then occurring which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder. A transfer of greater than a fifty percent (50%) interest (whether stock, partnership interest, membership interest or otherwise) of Tenant, either in one (1) transaction or a series of transactions shall be deemed to be an assignment under this Lease.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 23(a) above, Tenant shall be entitled, without the consent of Landlord, to assign this Lease or sublet all or a portion of the Premises to (i) an Affiliate (as defined below) of Tenant, (ii) to the surviving entity of Tenant in connection with any merger, consolidation or reorganization of Tenant or a newly formed public company with stock on a registered stock exchange as a successor to Tenant, (iii) to business and customer partners (Strategic Partners) of Tenant provided such occupancy, in the aggregate, is less than ten percent (10%) of the Rentable Area of the Premises (but in no event more than fifteen thousand (15,000) square feet in each building leased by Tenant in the Project), or (iv) to the purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant and Tenants business provided that in each instance under clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) above, (A) such assignee or sublessee of Tenant has a net worth (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied) of at least One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000.00) (exclusive of goodwill) both immediately prior to and immediately following the consummation of such assignment or subletting and (B) Tenant notifies Landlord of the assignment or subletting within ten (10) days after such event, provided that the foregoing shall not relieve Tenant of any of its liabilities or obligations under this Lease (a Permitted Transfer). In addition, a sale or transfer of the capital stock of Tenant shall be deemed a Permitted Transfer if (1) such sale or transfer occurs in connection with any bona fide financing or capitalization for the benefit of Tenant, or (2) Tenant is or becomes a publicly traded corporation. For purposes of this Lease, the term Affiliate shall mean any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Tenant, and the term Control shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such controlled person or entity. A Permitted Transferee is an assignee or sublessee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer under clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) above.
(c) When Tenant requests Landlords consent to an assignment or subletting, it shall notify Landlord in writing of the name and address of the proposed assignee or subtenant and the nature and character of the business of the proposed assignee or subtenant and shall provide current and three (3) years prior financial statements for the proposed assignee or subtenant, which financial statements shall be audited to the extent available and shall in any event be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Tenant shall also provide Landlord with a copy of the proposed sublease or assignment agreement, including all material terms and conditions thereof. Landlord shall have the option, to be exercised within thirty (30) days of receipt of the foregoing request for consent, to (i) terminate this Lease with respect to the entire Premises as of the term commencement date stated in a proposed assignment, or, in the case of a proposed sublease which when aggregated with any other subleases of the Premises comprises more than seventy percent (70%) of the Premises for substantially the remainder of the Term, terminate this Lease as of the commencement date stated in the proposed sublease, (ii) consent to the proposed assignment or sublease, or (iii) refuse its consent to the proposed assignment or
40
sublease, provided that (A) such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as Tenant is not then in Default under this Lease, and (B) as a condition to providing such consent, Landlord may require attormnent from the proposed subtenant on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Landlord. In the event Landlord elects to terminate this Lease or sublease or take an assignment from Tenant of the interest, or portion thereof, in this Lease and/or the Premises that Tenant proposes to assign or sublease as provided in the foregoing clause (i), then Landlord shall have the additional right to negotiate directly with Tenants proposed assignee or subtenant and to enter into a direct lease or occupancy agreement with such party on such terms as shall be acceptable to Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion, and Tenant hereby waives any claims against Landlord related thereto, including, without limitation, any claims for any compensation or profit related to such lease or occupancy agreement.
(d) Without otherwise limiting the criteria upon which Landlord may withhold Landlords consent, Landlord shall be entitled to consider all commercially reasonable criteria including, but not limited to, the following: (i) whether or not the proposed subtenant or assignee is engaged in a business which, and the use of the Premises will be in an manner which, is in keeping with the then character and nature of all other tenancies in the Project; (ii) whether the use to be made of the Premises by the proposed subtenant or assignee will conflict with any so-called exclusive use then in favor of any other tenant of the Building or the Project, and whether such use would be prohibited by any other portion of this Lease, including, but not limited to, any rules and regulations then in effect, or under applicable Laws, and whether such use imposes a greater load upon the Premises and the Building and the Project services than imposed by Tenant; (iii) the business reputation of the proposed individuals who will be managing and operating the business operations of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and the long-term financial and competitive business prospects of the proposed assignee or subtenant; and (iv) the creditworthiness and financial stability of the proposed assignee or subtenant in light of the responsibilities involved.
(e) In any event, Landlord may withhold its consent to any assignment or sublease, if: (i) the actual use proposed to be conducted in the Premises or portion thereof conflicts with the Permitted Use under this Lease or with the permitted use of any other lease which restricts the use to which any space in the Building or the Project may be put; (ii) the portion of the Premises proposed to be sublet does not comply with governmental safety and other codes; (iii) the proposed sublessee or assignee is either a governmental or quasi-governmental agency or instrumentality thereof; or (iv) the proposed sublessee or assignee has signed a letter of intent to lease space in the Building and is actively pursuing the consummation of a lease transaction for comparable space in the Building during the three (3) month period immediately preceding the date Landlord receives Tenants request for consent.
(f) If Landlord approves an assignment or subletting as herein provided, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, fifty percent (50%) of the excess, if any, of (i) the Base Rent and any Additional Rent paid by the assignee or sublessee to Tenant, less all actual and reasonable costs for (A) customary market-based leasing commissions, (B) costs of Tenant alterations and improvements and related architect and engineering fees, (C) consulting fees, (D) attorneys fees, and (E) rental concessions and allowances, incurred by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease; minus (ii) Base Rent plus Additional Rent allocable to that part of the Premises affected by such assignment or sublease pursuant to the provisions of this
41
Lease. All of Tenants costs shall be applied on a cash basis as paid by Tenant rather than amortized before paying any excess Rent to Landlord. The assignment or sublease agreement, as the case may be, after approval by Landlord, shall not be amended without Landlords prior written consent, and shall contain a provision directing the assignee or subtenant to pay the rent and other sums due thereunder directly to Landlord upon receiving written notice from Landlord that Tenant is in Default under this Lease with respect to the payment of Rent. In the event that, notwithstanding the giving of such notice, Tenant collects any rent or other sums from the assignee or subtenant, then Tenant shall hold such sums in trust for the benefit of Landlord and shall immediately forward the same to Landlord. Landlords collection of such rent and other sums shall not constitute an acceptance by Landlord of attornment by such assignee or subtenant.
(g) Notwithstanding any assignment or subletting, Tenant and any guarantor or surety of Tenants obligations under this Lease shall at all times remain fully and primarily responsible and liable for the payment of the Rent and for compliance with all of Tenants other obligations under this Lease (regardless of whether Landlords approval has been obtained for any such assignment or subletting).
(h) Tenant shall pay Landlords actual and reasonable fees (including, without limitation, the fees of Landlords counsel), incurred in connection with Landlords review and processing of documents regarding any proposed assignment or sublease.
(i) A consent to one assignment, subletting, occupation or use shall not be deemed to be a consent to any other or subsequent assignment, subletting, occupation or use, and consent to any assignment or subletting shall in no way relieve Tenant of any liability under this Lease. Any assignment or subletting (which is not a Permitted Transfer) without Landlords consent shall be void, and shall, at the option of Landlord, constitute a Default under this Lease.
(j) Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions, conditions and limitations imposed by this Paragraph 23 on Tenants ability to assign or transfer this Lease or any interest herein, to sublet the Premises or any part thereof, to transfer or assign any right or privilege appurtenant to the Premises, or to allow any other person to occupy or use the Premises or any portion thereof, are, for the purposes of California Civil Code Section 1951.4, as amended from time to time, and for all other purposes, reasonable at the time that this Lease was entered into, and shall be deemed to be reasonable at the time that Tenant seeks to assign or transfer this Lease or any interest herein, to sublet the Premises or any part thereof, to transfer or assign any right or privilege appurtenant to the Premises, or to allow any other person to occupy or use the Premises or any portion thereof.
(k) If this Lease is assigned, whether or not in violation of the provisions of this Lease, Landlord may collect Rent from the assignee. If the Premises or any part thereof is sublet or used or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, whether or not in violation of this Lease, Landlord may, after a Default by Tenant, collect Rent from the subtenant or occupant. In either event, Landlord may apply the net amount collected to Rent, but no such assignment, subletting, occupancy or collection shall be deemed a waiver of any of the provisions of this Paragraph 23, or the acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from the further performance by Tenant of Tenants obligations under this Lease. The consent by Landlord to an assignment, mortgaging, pledging, encumbering, transfer, use, occupancy or
42
subletting pursuant to any provision of this Lease shall not, except as otherwise provided herein, in any way be considered to relieve Tenant from obtaining the express consent of Landlord to any other or further assignment, mortgaging, pledging, encumbering, transfer, use, occupancy or subletting. References in this Lease to use or occupancy by anyone other than Tenant shall not be construed as limited to subtenants and those claiming under or through subtenants but as including also licensees or others claiming under or through Tenant, immediately or remotely. The listing of any name other than that of Tenant on any door of the Premises or on any directory or in any elevator in the Building, or otherwise, shall not, except as otherwise provided herein, operate to vest in the person so named any right or interest in this Lease or in the Premises, or be deemed to constitute, or serve as a substitute for, or any waiver of, any prior consent of Landlord required under this Paragraph 23.
(l) If Landlord shall consent to, or reasonably withhold its consent to, any proposed assignment or sublease, Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord against and from any and all loss, liability, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) resulting from any claims that may be made against Landlord by the proposed assignee or sublessee or by any brokers or other persons claiming a commission or similar fee in connection with the proposed assignment or sublease.
24. DEFAULT
The occurrence of anyone of the following events shall constitute a default on the part of Tenant (Default):
(a) The abandonment of the Premises by Tenant;
(b) Failure to pay any installment of Rent or any other monies due and payable hereunder, said failure continuing for a period of five (5) days after receipt of written notice;
(c) A general assignment by Tenant or any guarantor or surety of Tenants obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, Lease Guarantor, if any (collectively, Guarantor) for the benefit of creditors;
(d) The filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy by Tenant or any Guarantor, the filing by Tenant or any Guarantor of a voluntary petition for an arrangement, the filing by or against Tenant or any Guarantor of a petition, voluntary or involuntary, for reorganization, or the filing of an involuntary petition by the creditors of Tenant or any Guarantor, said involuntary petition remaining undischarged for a period of sixty (60) days;
(e) Receivership, attachment, or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenants assets on the Premises, such attachment or other seizure remaining undismissed or undischarged for a period of sixty (60) days after the levy thereof;
(f) Death or disability of Tenant or any Guarantor, if Tenant or such Guarantor is a natural person, or the failure by Tenant or any Guarantor to maintain its legal existence, if Tenant or such Guarantor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other legal entity, where such failure continues for a period of five (5) days after receipt of written notice;
43
(g) Failure of Tenant to execute and deliver to Landlord any estoppel certificate, subordination agreement, or lease amendment within the time periods and in the manner required by Paragraphs 31 or 32 or 43, and/or failure by Tenant to deliver to Landlord any financial statement within the time period and in the manner required by Paragraph 41, where any such failure continues for a period of five (5) days after receipt of written notice;
(h) An assignment or sublease, or attempted assignment or sublease, of this Lease or the Premises by Tenant contrary to the provision of Paragraph 23, unless such assignment or sublease is expressly conditioned upon Tenant having received Landlords consent thereto;
(i) Failure of Tenant to restore the Security Deposit to the amount and within the time period provided in Paragraph 7 above, where such failure continues for a period of five (5) Business Days after receipt of written notice;
(j) Failure in the performance of any of Tenants covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder (except those failures specified as events of Default in any other subparagraphs of this Paragraph 24, which shall be governed by the notice and cure periods set forth in such other subparagraphs), which such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant, provided that, if Tenant has exercised reasonable diligence to cure such failure and such failure cannot be cured within such thirty (30) day period despite reasonable diligence, Tenant shall not be in default under this subparagraph so long as Tenant thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes the cure to completion;
(k) Chronic delinquency by Tenant in the payment of Rent, or any other periodic payments required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease. Chronic delinquency means failure by Tenant to pay Rent, or any other payments required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease within three (3) days after written notice thereof for any four (4) months (consecutive or nonconsecutive) during any period of twelve (12) months;
(l) Any Default as described in Paragraph 44 below;
(m) Any insurance required to be maintained by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall be canceled or terminated or shall expire or be reduced or materially changed, except as permitted in this Lease and is not replaced within five (5) Business Days of notice;
(n) Any failure by Tenant to discharge or bond over any lien or encumbrance placed on the Project or any part thereof in violation of this Lease within twenty (20) days after the date Tenant has knowledge of such lien or encumbrance; and
(o) Any representation of Tenant herein or in any financial statement or other materials provided by Tenant or any guarantor of Tenants obligations under this Lease shall prove to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect, or any such financial statements or other materials shall have omitted any material fact.
Tenant agrees that any notice given by Landlord pursuant to Paragraphs 24(a) through 24(o) above shall satisfy the requirements for notice under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, and Landlord shall not be required to give any additional notice in order to be entitled to commence an unlawful detainer proceeding.
44
25. LANDLORDS REMEDIES
(a) Termination. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord may terminate this Lease immediately and all rights of Tenant hereunder by giving written notice to Tenant of such intention to terminate. If 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 and any other sums due and payable which have 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 and any other sums due and payable which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and any other sums due and payable for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenants failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course would be likely to result therefrom, including, without limitation, (A) any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord (1) in retaking possession of the Premises; (2) in maintaining, repairing, preserving, restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering, remodeling or rehabilitating the Premises or any affected portions of the Building or the Project, including such actions undertaken in connection with the reletting or attempted reletting of the Premises to a new tenant or tenants; (3) for leasing commissions, advertising costs and other expenses of reletting the Premises; or (4) in carrying the Premises, including taxes, insurance premiums, utilities and security precautions; (B) any unearned brokerage commissions paid in connection with this Lease; (C) reimbursement of any previously waived or abated Base Rent or Additional Rent or any free rent or reduced rental rate granted hereunder; and (D) any concession made or paid by Landlord for the benefit of Tenant including, but not limited to, any moving allowances, contributions, payments or loans by Landlord for tenant improvements or build-out allowances (including, without limitation, any unamortized portion of the Tenant Improvement Allowance (as defined in the Tenant Improvements Work Letter) (such Tenant Improvement Allowance to be amortized over the Term in the manner reasonably determined by Landlord), if any, and any outstanding balance (principal and accrued interest) of the Tenant Improvements Loan, if any), or assumptions by Landlord of any of Tenants previous lease obligations; plus
(v) such reasonable attorneys fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default, and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedy; and plus
(vi) at Landlords election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
45
As used in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above, the worth at the time of award is computed by allowing interest at an annual rate equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less. As used in subparagraph (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%). Tenant waives redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any other pertinent present or future law, in the event Tenant is evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any Default of Tenant hereunder.
(b) Continuation of Lease. In the event of any Default by Tenant, then in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity and under this Lease, Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenants Default and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due, provided that Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). In addition, Landlord shall not be liable in any way whatsoever for its failure or refusal to relet the Premises. For purposes of this Paragraph 25(b), the following acts by Landlord will not constitute the termination of Tenants right to possession of the Premises:
(i) Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relent the Premises, including, but not limited to, alterations, remodeling, redecorating, repairs, replacements and/or painting as Landlord shall consider advisable for the purpose of reletting the Premises or any part thereof; or
(ii) The appointment of a receiver upon the initiative of Landlord to protect Landlords interest under this Lease or in the Premises.
(c) Re-entry. In the event of any Default by Tenant, Landlord shall also have the right, with or without terminating this Lease, in compliance with applicable law, to re-enter the Premises, by force if necessary, and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant.
(d) Reletting. In the event of the abandonment of the Premises by Tenant or in the event that Landlord shall elect to re-enter as provided in Paragraph 25(b) or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceeding or pursuant to any notice provided by law, then if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Paragraph 25(a), Landlord may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, relet the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Premises in Landlords sole discretion. In the event that Landlord shall elect to so relent, then rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied in the following order: (i) to reasonable attorneys fees incurred by Landlord as a result of a Default and costs in the event suit is filed by Landlord to enforce such remedies; (ii) to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; (iii) to the payment of any costs of such reletting; (iv) to the payment of the costs of any alterations and repairs to the Premises; (v) to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and (vi) the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent and other sums payable by Tenant hereunder as the same may become due and payable hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of Rent hereunder, be less than the Rent payable during the month by Tenant hereunder, then Tenant shall pay such deficiency to
46
Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall also pay to Landlord, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such reletting or in making such alterations and repairs not covered by the rentals received from such reletting.
(e) Termination. No re-entry or taking of possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Paragraph 25 shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of any Default by Tenant, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease for any such Default.
(f) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies herein provided are not exclusive and Landlord shall have any and all other remedies provided herein or by law or in equity.
(g) No Surrender. No act or conduct of Landlord, whether consisting of the acceptance of the keys to the Premises, or otherwise, shall be deemed to be or constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by Tenant prior to the expiration of the Term, and such acceptance by Landlord of surrender by Tenant shall only flow from and must be evidenced by a written acknowledgment of acceptance of surrender signed by Landlord. The surrender of this Lease by Tenant, voluntarily or otherwise, shall not work a merger unless Landlord elects in writing that such merger take place, but shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of any and all existing subleases, or Landlord may, at its option, elect in writing to treat such surrender as a merger terminating Tenants estate under this Lease, and thereupon Landlord may terminate any or all such subleases by notifying the sublessee of its election so to do within five (5) days after such surrender.
26. LANDLORDS RIGHT TO PERFORM TENANTS OBLIGATIONS
(a) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Landlord contained in Paragraph 25 above, if Tenant shall be in Default in the performance of any of the terms, provisions, covenants or conditions to be performed or complied with by Tenant pursuant to this Lease, then Landlord may at Landlords option, without any obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant perform any such term, provision, covenant, or condition, or make any such payment on behalf of Tenant and Landlord by reason of so doing shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage thereby sustained by Tenant or anyone holding under or through Tenant or any of Tenants Agents.
(b) Without limiting the rights of Landlord under Paragraph 26(a) above, Landlord shall have the right at Landlords option, without any obligation to do so, to perform any of Tenants maintenance or repair obligations under this Lease without notice to Tenant in the case of an emergency, as determined by Landlord in its reasonable judgment.
(c) If Landlord performs any of Tenants obligations hereunder in accordance with this Paragraph 26, the full amount of the cost and expense incurred or the payment so made or the amount of the loss so sustained shall immediately be owing by Tenant to Landlord, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord within twenty (20) days of demand, as Additional Rent, the full amount thereof with interest thereon from the date of payment by Landlord at the Legal Rate.
47
27. LANDLORD DEFAULT
If Landlord fails to perform its obligations under this Lease, Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails to perform such obligations within thirty (30) days after notice by Tenant to Landlord specifying the nature of the obligations Landlord has failed to perform; provided, however, that if the nature of Landlords obligations is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. If Landlord is unable to fulfill or is delayed in fulfilling any of Landlords obligations under this Lease by reason of floods, earthquakes, lightning, or any other acts of God, accidents, breakage, repairs, strikes, lockouts, other labor disputes, inability to obtain utilities or materials, or by any other reason beyond Landlords reasonable control, or if Landlord enters the Premises or makes any Alterations to the Premises, the Building or any portion thereof pursuant to this Lease, then no such inability or delay by Landlord and no such entry or work by Landlord shall constitute an actual or constructive eviction, in whole or in part, or entitle Tenant to any abatement or diminution of Rent, or relieve Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease, or impose any liability upon Landlord or its agents. This Lease shall be construed as though the covenants herein between Landlord and Tenant are independent, and Tenant shall not be entitled to any setoff, offset, abatement or deduction of Rent or other amounts due Landlord hereunder if Landlord fails to perform its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Tenants sole remedy for a default of this Lease by Landlord shall be an action for damages, injunction or specific performance; Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease on account of any breach or default by Landlord.
28. ATTORNEYS FEES
(a) If either party hereto fails to perform any of its obligations under this Lease or if any dispute arises between the parties hereto concerning the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Lease, then the defaulting party or the party not prevailing in such dispute, as the case may be, shall pay any and all costs and expenses incurred by the other party on account of such default and/or in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements. Any such attorneys fees and other expenses incurred by either party in enforcing a judgment in its favor under this Lease shall be recoverable separately from and in addition to any other amount included in such judgment, and such attorneys fees obligation is intended to be severable from the other provisions of this Lease and to survive and not be merged into any such judgment.
(b) Without limiting the generality of Paragraph 28(a) above, if Landlord utilizes the services of an attorney for the purpose of collecting any Rent due and unpaid by Tenant or in connection with any other breach of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant agrees to pay Landlords actual and reasonable attorneys fees as determined by Landlord for such services, regardless of the fact that no legal action may be commenced or filed by Landlord.
48
29. TAXES
Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay directly to the taxing authority, prior to delinquency, all taxes levied against Tenants Property. If any Alteration installed by Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 12 or any of Tenants Property is assessed and taxed with the Project or the Building, Tenant shall pay such taxes to Landlord within the earlier of thirty (30) days after delivery to Tenant of a statement therefore, or thirty (30) days prior to the Property Tax payment delinquency date.
30. EFFECT OF CONVEYANCE
The term Landlord as used in this Lease means, from time to time, the then current owner of the Building or the Project containing the Premises, so that, in the event of any sale of the Building or the Project, Landlord shall be and hereby is entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder accruing prior to the date of sale or transfer, and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties and the purchaser at any such sale, that the purchaser of the Building or the Project has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder from and after the date of sale or transfer.
31. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
From time to time upon written request of Landlord or Tenant, the other party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an Estoppel Certificate in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, and with any other factual statements reasonably requested. Any such Estoppel Certificate may be relied upon by a prospective purchaser of Landlords interest or a mortgagee of (or holder of a deed of trust encumbering) Landlords interest or assignment of any mortgage or deed of trust upon Landlords interest in the Premises, or in the case of Tenant, a prospective purchaser of Tenants business or shares pursuant to a reorganization or public offering. If the requesting party fails to provide such certificate within ten (10) days of receipt of a written request as herein provided and an additional ten (10) days notice, the requesting party shall be deemed to have given such certificate as above provided without modification and shall be deemed to have admitted the accuracy of any such information.
32. SUBORDINATION
At the option of Landlord, this Lease, and all rights of Tenant hereunder, are and shall be subject and subordinate to all ground leases, overriding leases and underlying leases affecting the Building or the Project now or hereafter existing and each of the terms, covenants and conditions thereto (the Superior Lease(s)), and to all mortgages or deeds of trust which may now or hereafter affect the Building, the Property or any of such leases and each of the terms, covenants and conditions thereto (the Superior Mortgage(s)), whether or not such mortgages or deeds of trust shall also cover other land, buildings or leases, to each and every advance made or hereafter to be made under such mortgages or deeds of trust, and to all renewals, modifications, replacements and extensions of such leases and such mortgages or deeds of trust and spreaders and consolidations of such mortgages or deeds of trust. This Paragraph shall be self-operative and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. Tenant shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any reasonable instrument that Landlord, the lessor under any such lease or the holder of any such mortgage or deed of trust or any of their respective successors in interest may reasonably request to evidence such subordination; if Tenant fails to execute, acknowledge or deliver any such instrument within ten (10) days after request therefore, Tenant
49
hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenants attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to execute and deliver any such instrument for and on behalf of Tenant. As used herein the lessor of a Superior Lease or its successor in interest is herein called Superior Lessor; and the holder of a Superior Mortgage is herein called Superior Mortgagee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 32, if a Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage is hereafter placed against or affecting any or all of the Building or the Premises or any or all of the Building and improvements now or at any time hereafter constituting a part of or adjoining the Building, Landlord shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an agreement from the holder thereof in recordable form and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant, whereby the holder of such Superior Lease or Superior Mortgage agrees that Tenant, upon paying the Base Rent and all of the Additional Rent and other charges herein provided for, and observing and complying with the covenants, agreements and conditions of this Lease on its part to be observed and complied with, shall lawfully and quietly hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises during the Term (including any exercised renewal term), without hindrance or interference from anyone claiming by or through said Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor and that said Superior Mortgagee or Superior Lessor shall respect Tenants rights under this Lease and, upon succeeding to Landlords interest in the Building and Lease, shall observe and comply with all of Landlords duties under this Lease.
If any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee shall succeed to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, whether through possession or foreclosure action or delivery of a new lease or deed (such party so succeeding to Landlords rights herein called Successor Landlord), then Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such Successor Landlord as Tenants landlord under this Lease (without the need for further agreement) and shall promptly execute and deliver any reasonable instrument that such Successor Landlord may reasonably request to evidence such attornment. This Lease shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between the Successor Landlord and Tenant upon all of the terms, conditions and covenants as are set forth in this Lease, except that the Successor Landlord shall not (a) be liable for any previous act or omission of Landlord under this Lease, except to the extent such act or omission shall constitute a continuing Landlord default hereunder; (b) be subject to any offset, not expressly provided for in this Lease; or (c) be bound by any previous modification of this Lease or by any previous prepayment of more than one months Base Rent, unless such modification or prepayment shall have been expressly approved in writing by the Successor Landlord (or its predecessor in interest).
33. ENVIRONMENTAL COVENANTS

The right granted to Landlord herein to perform inspections shall not create a duty on Landlords part to inspect the Premises, or liability on the part of Landlord for Tenants use, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials, it being understood that Tenant shall be solely responsible for all liability in connection therewith.
(f) Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease free of (i) visible or black mold, Mold Conditions (defined below), debris, waste and (ii) Hazardous Materials and in a condition which complies with all Environmental Laws and any additional requirements of Landlord that are reasonably necessary to protect the value of the Premises, the Building or the Project. Tenants obligations and liabilities pursuant to this Paragraph 33 shall be in addition to any other surrender requirements in this Lease and shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If it is determined by Landlord that the condition of all or any portion of the Premises, the Building, and/or the Project is not in compliance with the provisions of this Lease with respect to Hazardous Materials, mold, debris, or waste, including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, then at Landlords sole option, Landlord may require Tenant to hold over possession of the Premises until Tenant can surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition in which the Premises existed as of the Commencement Date. For purposes hereof, the term normal wear and tear shall not include any deterioration in the condition or diminution of the value of any portion of the Premises, the Building, and/or the Project in any manner whatsoever related to directly, or indirectly, Hazardous Materials. Any such holdover by Tenant will be with Landlords consent, will not be terminable by Tenant in any event or circumstance and will otherwise be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 36 of this Lease.
(g) Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all claims, damages, fines, judgments, penalties, costs, losses (including, without limitation, loss in value of the Premises or the property in which the Premises is located, damages due to loss or restriction of rentable or usable space, and damages due to any adverse impact on marketing of the space and any and all sums paid for settlement of claims), liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys, consultants, and experts fees) incurred by Landlord during or after the Term and attributable to (i) any Hazardous Materials placed on or about the Premises, the Building or the Project by Tenant or Tenants Agents, or resulting from the action or inaction of Tenant or Tenants Agents, or (ii) Tenants breach of any provision of this Paragraph 33. This indemnification includes, without limitation, any and all costs incurred by Landlord due to any investigation of the site or any cleanup, removal or restoration mandated by a federal, state or local agency or political subdivision.
(h) Tenant acknowledges the necessity of adopting and enforcing good housekeeping practices, ventilation and vigilant moisture control within the Premises (particularly in kitchen areas, janitorial closets, bathrooms, in and around water fountains and other plumbing facilities and fixtures, break rooms, in and around outside walls, and in and around HVAC systems and associated drains) for the prevention of mold (such measures, Mold Prevention Practices). Tenant will, at its sole cost and expense, endeavor to maintain commercially reasonable Mold Prevention Practices as follows:
52
(i) Regularly monitor the Premises for the presence of mold and any conditions that reasonably can be expected to give rise to or be attributed to mold or fungus including, but not limited to, observed or suspected instances of water damage, condensation, seepage, leaks or any other water collection or penetration (from any source, internal or external), mold growth, mildew, repeated complaints of respiratory ailments or eye irritation by Tenants employees or any other occupants of the Premises, or any notice from a governmental agency of complaints regarding the indoor air quality at the Premises (the Mold Conditions); and
(ii) Promptly notify Landlord in writing if it observes visible or black mold or Mold Conditions in, at, or about the Premises or a surrounding area.
(i) In the event of suspected mold or Mold Conditions in, at, or about the Premises and surrounding areas, Landlord may cause an inspection of the Premises to be conducted, during such time as Landlord may designate, to determine if visible or black mold or Mold Conditions are present in, at, or about the Premises.
(j) Landlord represents and warrants that to its actual knowledge, without duty of investigation, the Premises and the Building do not currently suffer from any violation of any Environmental Laws. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not be responsible for the clean-up, monitoring or remediation of, and shall not be required to indemnify Landlord against any claims, losses, liabilities or expenses resulting from, any Hazardous Materials placed on or about the Premises by parties other than Tenant or Tenants agents, advisors, employees, partners, shareholders, directors, and independent contractors.
(k) If (i) Tenant is prevented from using all or part of the Premises as a result of any Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Premises or the Project (whether because of a direct interference with Tenants use of the Premises or because, considering the nature and amount of the substances involved, Tenant reasonably determines that the presence of such Hazardous Materials presents a health risk to the occupants of the Premises) (an Environmental Interruption), (ii) such Environmental Interruption continues for five (5) consecutive Business Days after Landlords receipt of notice thereof from Tenant and (iii) such Environmental Interruption was not caused by the use, storage, treatment, transportation, release or disposal of any Hazardous Materials on or about the Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, then the Base Rent and Additional Rent payable under this Lease shall be equitably abated or reduced for such time that Tenant continues to be prevented from using the entirety of the Premises in the proportion that the Rentable Area affected by the Hazardous Materials condition bears to the total Rentable Area of the Premises provided, however, that in the event such interruption is not due to Landlords negligence or willful misconduct, then such abatement shall only apply to the extent Landlord collects proceeds under any policy of rental-loss insurance the cost of which has been included in Operating Expenses and the proceeds from which are allocable to the Premises. In addition, if (1) Tenant is prevented from using a material part of the Premises as a result of an Environmental Interruption, (2) such Environmental Interruption continues for one (1) year, and (3) such Environmental Interruption was not caused by the use, storage, treatment, transportation, release or disposal of any Hazardous Materials on or about the Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, then Tenant may, as its sole and exclusive remedy, terminate this Lease, by giving written notice to Landlord at any time prior to the date the Environmental Interruption has been remedied.

The subsequent acceptance of Rent by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular rental so accepted, regardless of Landlords knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of Landlord or Tenant in regard to any Default by the other party shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by Landlord or Tenant of any Default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other Default concerning the same or any other provisions of this Lease.
36. HOLDING OVER
Any holding over after the expiration of the Term, without the express written consent of Landlord, shall constitute a Default and, without limiting Landlords remedies provided in this Lease, such holding over shall be construed to be a tenancy at sufferance, at a rental rate equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent last due in this Lease, plus Additional Rent, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable; provided, however, that in no event shall any renewal or expansion option, option to purchase, or other similar right or option contained in this Lease be deemed applicable to any such tenancy at sufferance. If the Premises are not surrendered at the end of the Term or sooner termination of this Lease, and in accordance with the provisions of Paragraphs 11 and 33(f), Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all loss or liability resulting from delay caused by Tenant in so surrendering the Premises without the permission or consent of Landlord including, without limitation, any loss or liability resulting from any claim against Landlord made by any succeeding tenant or prospective tenant founded on or resulting from such delay and losses to Landlord due to lost opportunities to lease any portion of the Premises to any such succeeding tenant or prospective tenant, together with, in each case, actual attorneys fees and costs incurred by Landlord.

40. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
In the event of any default or breach by Landlord under this Lease or arising in connection herewith or with Landlords operation, management, leasing, repair, renovation, alteration or any other matter relating to the Project or the Premises, Tenants remedy in damages (except in the event of fraud or matters covered by Landlords insurance) shall be limited solely and exclusively to an amount which is equal to the lesser of (a) the interest in the Building of the then-current Landlord or (b) the equity interest Landlord would have in the Building if the Building were encumbered by third party debt in an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the value of the Building (as such value is determined by Landlord), including, without limitation, any sales, condemnation or insurance proceeds received by Landlord or the Landlord Parties in connection with the Project, the Building or the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, Landlord Parties shall mean, collectively, Landlord, its partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, investment advisors, or any successor in interest of any of them. Neither Landlord, nor any of the Landlord Parties shall have any personal liability therefor, and Tenant hereby expressly waives and releases such personal liability on behalf of itself and all persons claiming by, through or under Tenant. The limitations of liability contained in this Paragraph 40 shall inure to the benefit of Landlords and the Landlord Parties present and future partners, beneficiaries, officers, directors, trustees, shareholders, agents and employees, and their respective partners, heirs, successors and assigns. Under no circumstances shall any present or future partner of Landlord (if Landlord is a partnership), future member in Landlord (if Landlord is a limited liability company) or trustee or beneficiary (if Landlord or any partner or member of Landlord is a trust), have any liability for the performance of Landlords obligations under this Lease. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, neither Landlord nor the Landlord Parties shall be liable under any circumstances for injury or damage to, or interference with Tenants
55
business, including, but not limited to, loss of profits, loss of rents or other revenues, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill or loss of use, in each case, however occurring.

Within ten (10) days after Landlords request, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord the then current audited financial statements of Tenant (including interim periods following the end of the last fiscal year for which annual statements are available), prepared or compiled by a certified public accountant, including a balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the most recent prior year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied. Tenants obligations with respect to financial statements shall be limited to Tenants financial statements existing as of the time of the request, provided the same are dated no earlier than nine (9) months prior to such request. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant will not have audited financial statements prior to July 1, 2009, and that unaudited financial statements will be acceptable to Landlord until July 1, 2009 provided the same are certified as true and correct by Tenants chief financial officer.

The then-current Rules and Regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this paragraph, if any future modification, amendment or supplement to the Rules or Regulations are in conflict with any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, then this Lease shall prevail. In the event any other tenant or other occupant of the Building or the Project fails to comply with the Rules and Regulations, and such non-compliance unreasonably interferes with Tenants use of the Premises, then Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts, following a written request from Tenant, to enforce such Rules and Regulations against other tenants of the Building; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be responsible to Tenant for the failure of any other person to observe and abide by any of said Rules and Regulations. The Rules and Regulations shall be uniformly applied without discrimination; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Landlord from waiving any of the Rules and Regulations for individual tenants in the exercise of its good faith business judgment, any such waiver shall not waive the applicability or enforceability of such rule or regulation as to any other tenant.
56
43. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION

56. ACCEPTANCE
This Lease shall only become effective and binding upon full execution hereof by Landlord and delivery of a signed copy to Tenant.
57. RENEWAL OPTION
(a) Exercise of Option. Tenant shall have one (1) option (the Extension Option) to renew this Lease as to the entirety of the Premises then leased for a period of either three (3) years or five (5) years (as applicable, the Extension Term) commencing on the date following the Expiration Date subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Paragraph 57. The Extension Option is personal to the original Tenant named herein (and any Permitted Transferee) and may not be exercised by any other sublessee or assignee, or by any other successor or assign of Tenant other than a Permitted Transferee. The Extension Option shall be effective only if
63
Tenant is not in Default under this Lease, nor has any event occurred which with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder at the time of Tenants exercise of the Extension Option. To exercise this Extension Option, Tenant shall give Landlord notice of its exercise of the Extension Option not less than nine (9) months, nor more than twelve (12) months, prior to the date on which the Extension Term will commence, which notice shall designate either a three (3) year or five (5) year extension term (the Extension Notice). The notice shall be given as provided in Paragraph 34 above. In the event Tenant validly exercises the Extension Option, the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term shall be an amount equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market Rate and this Lease will terminate in its entirety at the end of the Extension Term and Tenant will have no further option to renew or extend the Term of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant timely exercises the Extension Option, Landlord, in Landlords sole discretion, may elect to cause the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term to be an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Prevailing Market Rate, provided that Landlord pay to Tenant, on or prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, the then net present value of the difference between the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term at ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market Rate and the Base Rent payable during the Extension Term at one hundred percent (100%) of the Prevailing Market Rate, discounted at the then applicable Prime Rate, plus two percent (2%). Tenant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from any claim, loss, liability, and costs and expenses, including attorneys fees in conjunction with any claim or claims for any commission or fee by any broker or other party claiming to represent Tenant in connection with the Extension Option.
(b) Procedures for Determining Prevailing Market Rate.
(i) If Tenant timely exercises the Extension Option, not later than thirty (30) days after Tenants Extension Notice, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a good faith written proposal of the Prevailing Market Rate (for purposes of determining ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market Rate) for the Premises for the Extension Term. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlords proposal, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing that (A) Tenant accepts Landlords proposal or (B) Tenant rejects Landlords proposal. If Tenant does not give Landlord a timely notice in response to Landlords proposal, and Tenant further fails to respond within ten (10) days after an additional ten (10) days notice from Landlord to Tenant, Landlords proposal of Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term shall be deemed accepted by Tenant.
(ii) If Tenant timely rejects Landlords proposal, Landlord and Tenant shall first negotiate in good faith in an attempt to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term. If Landlord and Tenant are able to agree within thirty (30) days following the earlier of (A) Landlords receipt of Tenants notice rejecting Landlords proposal or (B) the expiration of the thirty (30) day period referred to in subparagraph (a) above (the Negotiation Period), such agreement shall constitute a determination of Prevailing Market Rate for purposes of this Paragraph. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree upon the Prevailing Market Rate during the Negotiation Period, then within thirty (30) days after expiration of the Negotiation Period, the parties shall meet and concurrently deliver to each other their respective written estimates of the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term, supported by the reasons therefore (respectively, Landlords Determination and Tenants Determination). Landlords written estimate shall be the same estimate as initially delivered to Tenant pursuant to Paragraph 57(b)(i) above. If either
64
party fails to deliver its Determination in a timely manner, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the amount specified by the other party. If the higher of such Determinations is not more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of such Determinations, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be the average of the two Determinations. If the Prevailing Market Rate is not resolved by exchange of the two (2) respective Determinations, then the Prevailing Market Rate shall be determined as follows, each party being bound to its Determination and such Determinations constituting the only two choices available to the Appraisal Panel (as hereinafter defined).
(iii) Within thirty (30) days after the parties exchange Landlords and Tenants Determinations, the parties shall each appoint a neutral and impartial appraiser who shall be certified as an MAI or ASA appraiser and shall have at least ten (10) years experience, immediately prior to his or her appointment, as a real estate appraiser of office properties in the City of Pleasanton and County of Contra Costa, including significant experience appraising suburban First-Class Buildings. For purposes hereof, an MAI appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, if there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar), and an ASA appraiser means an individual who holds the Senior Member designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Society of Appraisers (or its successor organization, or, if there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar). If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within said thirty (30) day period, the Prevailing Market Rate for the Extension Term shall be the Determination of the other party who timely appointed an appraiser. Landlords and Tenants appraisers shall work together in good faith to appoint a neutral or impartial third party appraiser within fifteen (15) days, and notify both Landlord and Tenant of such selection.
(iv) Within five (5) days following notification of the identity of the third appraiser, Landlord and Tenant shall submit copies of Landlords Determination and Tenants Determination to the third appraiser. The three (3) appraisers are referred to herein as the Appraisal Panel. The three (3) appraisers shall then work together in good faith to decide which of the two (2) Determinations more closely reflects the Prevailing Market Rate of the Premises for the Extension Term. The Determination selected by such appraisers shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. If all three (3) appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two Determinations more closely reflects the Prevailing Market Rate within forty-five (45) days, the decision of a majority of the appraisers shall prevail. The Appraisal Panel, if it so elects, may conduct a hearing, at which Landlord and Tenant may each make supplemental oral and/or written presentations, with an opportunity for rebuttal by the other party and for questioning by the members of the Appraisal Panel. Within forty-five (45) days following the appointment of the third appraiser, the Appraisal Panel, by majority vote, shall select either Landlords Determination or Tenants Determination as the Prevailing Market Rate for the Premises for the Extension Term, and the Appraisal Panel shall have no right to propose a middle ground or to modify either of the two (2) Determinations or the provisions of this Lease. The decision of the Appraisal 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 Appraisal Panel to act, a successor shall be appointed in the manner that applied to the selection of the member being replaced.
65
(v) All fees and expenses of the three (3) appraisers and the expenses incidental to the proceedings of the Appraisal Panel (excluding incidental attorneys fees and similar expenses incurred by each party) shall be paid by the party whose Determination is not selected by the Appraisal Panel.
(c) Prevailing Market Rate. As used in this Lease, the phrase Prevailing Market Rate means the amount that a landlord under no compulsion to lease the Premises, and a tenant under no compulsion to lease the Premises, would agree upon at arms length as Base Rent for the Premises for the Extension Term, as of the commencement of the Extension Term. The Prevailing Market Rate shall be based upon non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity lease transactions recently entered into for space in the Building and in comparable First-Class Buildings in the Pleasanton-San Ramon area (Comparison Leases) and may include periodic increases. Rental rates payable under Comparison Leases shall be adjusted to account for variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to: (i) the length of the Extension Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison Leases; (ii) rental structure, including additional rent, and taking into consideration any base year or expense stops; (iii) the size of the Premises compared to the size of the premises under the Comparison Leases; (iv) utility, location, floor levels, views and efficiencies of the floor(s) of the Premises compared to the premises under the Comparison Leases; (v) the age and quality of construction of the Building; (vi) the value of existing leasehold improvements; and (vii) the financial condition and credit history of Tenant compared to the tenants under the Comparison Leases. In determining the Prevailing Market Rate, no consideration shall be given to (1) any rental abatement periods, improvement allowances or similar concessions granted to new (i.e., non-renewal) tenants in Comparison Leases unless, and to the extent, also granted to renewal tenants, (2) whether Landlord or the landlords under Comparison Leases are paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with Tenants exercise of the Extension Option or in connection with the Comparison Leases, and (3) moving allowances paid. For purposes of this Paragraph, Comparable Buildings shall include, but not be limited to: Carr America Corporate Center; Hacienda Terrace; Dublin Corporate Center; and Stoneridge Corporate Plaza.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of the immediately preceding clause (ii), in the event Base Rent is calculated at ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market Rate, Landlord, in Landlords sole discretion, may elect to cause such Base Rent rate to be an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Prevailing Market Rate subject to Landlords payment to Tenant, on or prior to the commencement of the payment of such Rent, the then net present value of the difference between (A) the rental payable during the term for such 6210 Expansion Premises at ninety-five percent (95%) of the Prevailing Market Rate and (B) the rental payable during the term for such 6210 Expansion Premises at one hundred percent (100%) of the Prevailing Market Rate, discounted at the then applicable Prime Rate, plus two percent (2%).

In the event that Landlord should disapprove of any portion of the Tenant Improvements during an inspection, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing within a reasonable time of such inspection of such disapproval and shall specify in reasonably sufficient detail the items disapproved. Any defects or deviations in, and/or disapprovals in accordance herewith by Landlord of, the Tenant Improvements shall be rectified by Tenant at Tenants expense and at no expense to Landlord; provided, however, that in the event Landlord determines that a defect or deviation exists or reasonably disapproves of any matter in connection with any portion of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord may, following notice to Tenant and a reasonable period of time for Tenant to cure, take such action as Landlord deems reasonably necessary to correct the same, at Tenants expense, and at no additional expense to Landlord, and without incurring any liability on Landlords part.
