Related to Lease Term and Options to Renew

• Options to Renew Provided that no Event of Default by Tenant under this Lease exists as of the date of exercise of the applicable option or at the expiration of the initial term or preceding Option Term, and provided further that Tenant has not assigned this Lease, Tenant shall have the option to extend the initial lease term for four (4) additional, successive terms of five (5) years each (each, an "OPTION TERM"). Tenant shall exercise the option, if at all, by delivering to Landlord written notice of the exercise no sooner than fifteen (15) months nor later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term or preceding Option Term, as applicable. Tenant's right to exercise each option shall be conditioned upon Tenant delivering to Landlord with Tenant's notice of exercise, current financial reports which evidence that Tenant's financial condition on the date of exercise is equal to or better than Tenant's financial condition on the date of execution of this Lease. If Tenant's financial condition has declined in Landlord's business judgment, Landlord may refuse to accept Tenant's exercise unless Tenant agrees to provide a new Letter(s) of Credit with terms and amounts acceptable to Landlord in its business judgment to secure Tenant's obligations during the applicable Option Term. All terms, provisions, conditions and covenants of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect during the Option Terms, provided that Tenant shall have no additional option periods and the Base Rent payable during the first Lease Year of each Option Term (and for increases during the Option Term, as applicable) shall be the market rate then prevailing as projected for the commencement of the applicable Option Term, for premises comparable in size, quality and location in comparable class R&D/Office buildings throughout the Tri-Valley/Livermore area taking into account all relevant factors (the "MARKET RENT"). Base Rent for the Option Term shall be determined prior to the commencement of the applicable Option Term in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant are unable to agree on the market rent within sixty (60) days after Tenant gives notice of its exercise of the Option Term, then Tenant shall have the right to revoke its exercise of the option by delivering written notice within ten (10) days following the expiration of such 60-day period. In the event of such revocation, Tenant shall forfeit all rights to thereafter exercise any option under this Lease and the Lease shall terminate at the end of the initial term, or then Option Term, as applicable. If Tenant does not revoke its exercise and elects to proceed with the determination of market rent, then the monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent payable during the Option Term shall be determined by appraisal in the following manner: If Landlord and Tenant can agree on a single appraiser, then the rate set by such appraiser as set forth below shall be the Base Rent for the Option Term. If the parties cannot agree on a single appraiser, then each party, by giving written notice to the other party, shall appoint as an appraiser an experienced commercial real estate agent in the area in which the Premises are located. Said appointment shall be made within ten (10) days following the expiration of the sixty (60) day period aforesaid, and if one of the parties does not appoint an appraiser within that time, the single appraiser named shall be the sole appraiser and shall set the monthly Base Rent for the Option Term. If the two appraisers are appointed as provided herein, each shall independently prepare an estimate of the market rent within sixty (60) days. If the higher of the two estimates so determined is within ten percent (10%) of the lower estimate, then the monthly Base Rent to be paid by Tenant during the Option Term shall be the average of the amounts determined by the appraisers. If the difference between the two estimates exceeds ten percent (10%) of the lower one, the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the qualifications set forth hereinabove within ten (10) days thereafter who will likewise independently estimate the market rate within sixty (60) days after the appointment. The average of the two closest appraisals shall be set as the monthly Base Rent. Each party shall pay the fees of the appraiser appointed by such party and the parties will share equally the fees of any third appraiser appointed pursuant to this Section A-2.1. Notwithstanding the above, the Base Rent payable by Tenant during each Option Term shall be in addition to all Additional Rent and other sums and charges payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the options granted herein are personal to Tenant and may not be assigned with an assignment of this Lease except in connection with an assignment to an entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Tenant (as defined in Article 20 of this Lease) or which is a successor to Tenant by merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of Tenant's assets with Landlord's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld.

• Term and Renewal Options The term of service is 24 months (Initial Term). Following the expiration of the Initial Term, service under this option will continue on a month-to-month basis subject to the terms and conditions, including rates and discounts set forth under this option (Extension Term). The Company or the Customer may elect to forego the Extension Term by providing the other party written notice at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. Either party may terminate service during the Extension Term by providing the other party at least 60 days prior written notice. Term shall mean the Initial Term and the Extension Term.

• Initial Term and Renewal This Agreement shall become effective upon its execution and, shall have an initial term of five (5) years. Following the expiration of the initial term, the Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one-year terms until such time that the Agreement is terminated by either Party upon giving the other Party six (6) months’ written notice of termination.

• OPTION TO RENEW Provided Tenant is not, and has not been (more than two (2) times), in default under any of the terms and conditions contained herein, Tenant shall have two (2) additional consecutive five (5) year options to renew and extend the Rental Term as provided herein (“Option”). The Option shall only be exercised by Tenant delivering written notice thereof to Landlord no earlier than the date which is twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term and no later than the date which is nine (9) months prior to the expiration of the Rental Term (the “Option Notice”). The Base Monthly Rent during the first year of each extension periods shall be the lesser of: (i) the then current Fair Market Rate (as defined) for comparable space within the Project, and (ii) the Base Monthly Rent then in effect for the Leased Premises during the last month of the initial Rental Term (increasing each year thereafter by 3%, compounded). “Fair Market Rate” means the market rate for rent chargeable for the Leased Premises based upon the following factors applicable to the Leased Premises or any comparable premises: rent, escalation, term, size, expense stop, tenant allowance, existing tenant finishes, parking availability, and location and proximity to services. Within thirty (30) days of Option Notice, Tenant shall notify Landlord of Tenant’s option of Fair Market Rate for the applicable renewal period. If Landlord disagrees with Tenant’s opinion of the Fair Market Rate, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s opinion of Fair Market Rate within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Tenant’s opinion of Fair Market Rate (“Landlord’s Value Notice”). If the parties are unable to resolve their differences within thirty (30) days thereafter, Landlord or Tenant, at its sole option, may terminate this Lease, effective as of the last day of the then-current Rental Term. Alternatively, Tenant and Landlord may mutually agree to submit the determination of Fair Market Rate to a “Market Assessment Process,” as provided in Exhibit “F” – Market Assessment Process.

• Options to Extend a. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two (2) options (singularly an “Extension Option” and collectively the “Extension Options”) to extend the term of this Agreement for additional terms of five (5) years each (singularly an “Option Period” and collectively the “Option Periods”), on the same terms, conditions and covenants set forth in this Agreement, except the monthly rental shall be adjusted as hereinafter provided. Each Extension Option shall be exercised automatically without providing any notice of extension unless Tenant provides written notice delivered to the Landlord that Tenant will not extend the Term of this Agreement at least one (1) year prior to the expiration of the Primary Term or the preceding Option Period. b. Base Rent for the Extension Options shall be as set forth in Section 3.4 of this Agreement. c. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any option to extend the Term of this Agreement shall be deemed null and void, at Landlord’s sole discretion, if one or more of the following has occurred: 1) Tenant has been late in the payment of Rent on three (3) or more occasions within any twelve (12) month period, after Tenant first receiving written notice from Landlord that Tenant was late in the payment of Rent for the first two occasions before a third late payment is to occur. For this purpose, a payment shall be deemed to be late if it is received by Landlord after the tenth (10th) day of the month in which such Rent is due. 2) Tenant is in default beyond any applicable cure period in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement at the time Tenant exercises any Extension Option, or at the time of commencement of any Option Period. 3) This Agreement has ever been assigned by Tenant other than as set forth in this Agreement. d. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, at any time after the ninth full year after the Commencement Date, Landlord may elect to terminate the Agreement for any reason or no reason by giving Tenant three hundred sixty five (365) days prior written notice of such election (“Notice”), such termination to be effective as of the date three hundred sixty five (365) days after the date of the Notice (the “Termination Date”). In the event of any termination of the Agreement by Landlord as provided herein, Landlord hereby reserves any and all rights and remedies available to Landlord under the Agreement, at law or in equity with respect to any past due amounts due from Tenant under the Agreement or any other defaults by Tenant thereunder occurring prior to the Termination Date. Upon any such termination, Tenant shall surrender the Premises to Landlord in the condition required by the Agreement on the Termination Date and the parties shall be relieved of further obligation under the Agreement accruing after the Termination Date (except as to any monies due and owing as of the Termination Date, to include any outstanding amounts of Rent or those obligations which are specifically stated to survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Agreement).

• Term and Renewal This Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date and shall remain in effect for a period of three years from and after the Live Date (the “Initial Term”), and thereafter shall automatically renew for successive three year terms (each such period, a “Renewal Term”) unless terminated by any party giving written notice of non-renewal at least one hundred eighty days prior to the last day of the then current term to each other party hereto.

• Options to Extend Term Tenant shall have options (each, an “Option”) to extend the Term of this Lease upon the following terms and conditions: 42.1. Tenant shall have two (2) consecutive Options to extend the Term of this Lease by three (3) years each on the same terms and conditions as this Lease. Basic Annual Rent shall equal ninety-five percent (95%) of the fair market value (“FMV”) for comparable office/research and development projects in the Brisbane/Peninsula market as of the date Tenant exercises the respective Option, increased on each annual anniversary of the commencement of each extended term by such percentage, if any, that constitutes a market rate annual increase for such market. In the event that Landlord and Tenant disagree as to the FMV, they shall hire an appraiser reasonably acceptable to both parties, the cost of which shall be split equally by Landlord and Tenant, which appraiser’s decision as to the FMV shall be binding on both parties. 42.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not assign or transfer an Option, either separately or in conjunction with an assignment or transfer of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. 42.3. The Options are conditional upon Tenant giving Landlord written notice of its election to exercise the applicable Option at least nine (9) months prior to the end of the expiration of the then-current Term of this Lease. 42.4. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 42, Tenant shall not have the right to exercise an Option: (a) During the time commencing from the date Landlord delivers to Tenant a written notice that Tenant is in default under any provisions of this Lease and continuing until Tenant has cured the specified default to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction; or (b) At any time after an event of Default as described in Section 24 of the Lease (provided, however, that, for purposes of this Subsection 42.4(b), Landlord shall not be required to provide Tenant with notice of such Default) and continuing until Tenant cures any such Default, if such Default is susceptible to being cured; or (c) In the event that Tenant has committed a Default two (2) or more times and a service or late charge has become payable under Section 24.1 for each of such Defaults during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the date that Tenant intends to exercise the Option, whether or not Tenant cures such Defaults within any applicable cure period. 42.5. The period of time within which Tenant may exercise an Option shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise such Option because of the provisions of Section 42.4. 42.6. All of Tenant’s rights under the provisions of the Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect even after Tenant’s due and timely exercise of an Option if, after such exercise, but prior to the commencement date of the new term, (a) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of Tenant for a period of twenty (20) days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant, (b) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default (other than a monetary default) within thirty (30) days after the date Landlord gives notice to Tenant of such default or (c) Tenant has defaulted under this Lease three (3) or more times and a service or late charge under Section 24.1 has become payable for any such default, whether or not Tenant has cured such defaults.

• Term and Renewal of Agreements The Agreement with TIPS is for three (3) years with an option for renewal for an additional one (1) consecutive year if both parties agree. TIPS may or may not exercise the one-year extension beyond the base three-year term and whether or not to offer the extension is at the sole discretion of TIPS. The scheduled Agreement termination date shall be the last date of the month of the last month of the agreement’s legal effect. Example: If the agreement is scheduled to end on May 23, the anniversary date of the award, it would actually be extended to May 31 in the last month of the last year the contract is active. No Agreement for goods or services with a TIPS Member by the awarded vendor named in this Agreement that results from the solicitation award named in this Agreement, may incorporate an automatic renewal clause that exceeds month to month terms with which the TIPS Member must comply. All renewal terms incorporated in an Agreement by the vendor with the TIPS Member shall only be valid and enforceable when the vendor receives written confirmation by purchase order, executed Agreement or other written instruction issued by the TIPS Member for any renewal period. The purpose of this clause is to avoid a TIPS Member inadvertently renewing an Agreement during a period in which the governing body of the TIPS Member has not properly appropriated and budgeted the funds to satisfy the Agreement renewal. This term is not negotiable and any Agreement between a TIPS Member and a TIPS awarded vendor with an automatic renewal clause that conflicts with these terms is rendered void and unenforceable.
