Sublease Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the conditions set forth herein, the Subleased Premises.
Master Lease A. All the obligations contained in the Master Lease conferred and imposed upon Sublessor (as Tenant therein) shall be borne by Sublessor and Sublessee in accordance with the Sublessor's Percentage and the Sublessee's Percentage, respectively, except as modified and amended by this Sublease, and all rights and privileges contained in the Master Lease conferred upon Sublessor (as Tenant therein), are hereby conferred and imposed upon Sublessee, to the extent of Sublessee's Percentage. Sublessor covenants and agrees it will make payment of the rentals reserved under the Master Lease as and when due, will perform Sublessor's insurance obligations under the Master Lease, and will otherwise fully and faithfully perform the terms and conditions of the Master Lease with respect to the Sublessor's Percentage. Sublessee covenants and agrees to otherwise fully and faithfully perform the terms and conditions of the Master Lease and the Sublease on its part to be performed. Neither the Sublessor nor Sublessee shall do or cause to be done any act which would or might cause the Master Lease, or the rights of Sublessor as tenant under the Master Lease to be endangered, cancelled, terminated, forfeited or surrendered, or which would or might cause Sublessor to be in default thereunder or liable for any damage, claim or penalty. Sublessee agrees, as an express inducement for Sublessor executing this Sublease, that if there is any conflict between the provisions of the Master Lease and this Sublease which would permit Sublessee to do or cause to be done any act which is prohibited by the Master Lease then the provisions of the Master Lease shall prevail.
B. Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, within ten (10) days after demand therefor by Sublessor, Sublessee's Percentage of any and all sums (except fixed annual rent payable under the Master Lease) due pursuant to the Master Lease. Sublessor shall not demand such payment prior to the date which is thirty (30) days before the date any such sum shall be due and owing under the Master Lease.
C. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, Sublessor shall have no duty itself to perform any obligations of the Master Landlord, nor shall such default of the Master Landlord affect this Sublease or waive or defer the performance of any of Sublessee' s obligations hereunder; provided, nevertheless, that in the event of any such default or failure of performance by Master Landlord, Sublessor agrees, upon notice from Sublessee, to make immediate demand upon Master Landlord to perform its obligations under the Master Lease.
Sublease Term The term of the Sublease (“Sublease Term”) commences on the later to occur of (1) Sublandlord’s receipt of Prime Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease, and (2) October 1, 2009 (“Sublease Commencement Date”); and expires on January 28, 2018 (“Sublease Expiration Date”; i.e., the day prior to the Termination Date pursuant to the Prime Lease). Sublandlord shall deliver the Subleased Premises “broom clean” and free of all of Sublandlord’s personal property (other than the F&F (defined in Section 2(f))) and debris, but otherwise in “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition on the Sublease Commencement Date; provided that Subtenant shall not be responsible for, or required to remedy, any violation of any applicable law, or any condition or state of facts, with respect to the Subleased Premises, the Building or the Land existing on or prior to the Sublease Commencement Date. Sublandlord is not required to perform any work to prepare the Subleased Premises for Subtenant’s intended use. If (i) for any reason Sublandlord has not received Prime Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease in form required by Section 15(i) below by the date which is sixty (60) days from the date hereof, or (ii) Prime Landlord elects to terminate the Prime Lease in respect of the Subleased Premises pursuant to Prime Landlord’s recapture right set forth in Section 16.5 of the Prime Lease, then in the case of (i), then Sublandlord and Subtenant each may elect at any time thereafter to terminate this Sublease by written notice to the other, whereupon the parties shall deem this Sublease to be null and void and of no effect (except for those provisions expressly stated herein to survive a termination), and in the case of (ii) the Sublease will be deemed terminated in accordance with Section 16.5 of the Prime Lease.
Option to Extend Lease Term Landlord hereby grants to Tenant an option to extend the Lease Term for either a) a one (1) year period; b) a two (2) year period; or c) a three (3) year period (“Option Period”), on the following terms and conditions:
A. Tenant must give Landlord notice in writing of its exercise of the option in question, and the length of the Option Period, no earlier than 270 days before the date the Lease Term would end, but for the exercise of the said option, and no later than 180 days before the date the Lease Term would end, but for the exercise of the said option.
B. Tenant may not extend the Lease Term pursuant to any option granted by this paragraph if Tenant is in Default beyond any applicable notice and cure period as of the date of exercise of the option, or as of the date this Lease would have been terminated but for said exercise.
C. All terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease shall apply during the option period, except that the Base Monthly Rent for the Option Period shall be determined as provided in section D below.
D. The Base Monthly Rent for the Option Period shall be the greater of: (i) the Base Monthly Rent payable for the last month of the Premises Lease Term, or (ii) ninety-five (95%) percent of the then fair market monthly rent determined as of the commencement of the Option Period, based upon a lease for premises of like size, quality and location in the Menlo Park area. If the parties are unable to agree upon the fair market monthly rent for the Premises for the Option Period within 30 days from Tenant’s delivery of notice of exercise of the option, then the fair market monthly rent shall be determined by appraisal conducted pursuant to subsection E of this paragraph.
E. In the event it becomes necessary to determine by appraisal the fair market rent of the Premises for the purpose of establishing the Base Monthly Rent during the Option Period, then such fair market monthly rent shall be determined by three real estate appraisers, all of whom shall be members of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, with not less than five years’ experience appraising real property (other than residential or agricultural property) located in San Mateo County, California, in accordance with the following procedures:
(i) The party demanding an appraisal (the “Notifying Party”) shall notify the other party (the “Non-Notifying Party”) thereof by delivering a written demand for appraisal, which demand, to be effective, must give the name, address, and qualifications of an appraiser selected by the Notifying Party. Within 10 days of receipt of said demand, the Non-Notifying Party shall select its appraiser and notify the Notifying Party, in writing, of the name, address, and qualifications of an appraiser selected by it. Failure by the Non-Notifying Party to select a qualified appraiser within said 10 business day period shall be deemed a waiver of its right to select a second appraiser on its own behalf; and the Notifying Party shall select a second appraiser on behalf of the Non-Notifying Party within five days after the expiration of said 10 business day period. Within 10 business days from the date the second appraiser shall have been appointed, the two appraisers so selected shall appoint a third appraiser. If the two appraisers fail to select a third qualified appraiser, the third appraiser shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association or if it shall refuse to perform this function, then at the request of either Landlord or Tenant, such third appraiser shall be promptly appointed by the American Arbitration Association or, if it shall refuse to perform this function then, at the request of either Landlord or Tenant, such third appraiser shall be promptly appointed by the then Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo.
(ii) The three appraisers so selected shall meet in Menlo Park, California, not later than 20 days following the selection of the third appraiser. At said meeting the appraisers so selected shall attempt to determine the fair market monthly rent of the Premises for the Option Period.
(iii) If the appraisers so selected are unable to complete their determinations in one meeting, they may continue to consult at such times as they deem necessary for a 15 day period from the date of the first meeting, in an attempt to have at least two of them agree. If, at the initial meeting or at any time during said 15 day period, two or more of the appraisers so selected agree on the fair market rent of the Leased Premises, such agreement shall be determinative and binding on the parties hereto, and the agreeing appraisers shall, in simple letter form executed by the agreeing appraisers, forthwith notify both Landlord and Tenant of the amount set by such agreement.
(iv) If two or more appraisers do not so agree within said 15 day period, then each appraiser shall, within five days after the expiration of said 15 day period, submit his independent appraisal in simple letter form to Landlord and Tenant stating his determination of the fair market rent of the Premises for the Option Period. The parties shall then determine the fair market rent for the Premises by determining the average of the fair market rent set by each of the appraisers. However, if the lowest appraisal is less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the middle appraisal then such lowest appraisal shall be disregarded and/or if the highest appraisal is greater than one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the middle appraisal then such highest appraisal shall be disregarded. If the fair market rent set by any appraisal is so disregarded, then the average shall be determined by computing the average set by the other appraisals that have not been disregarded.
(v) Nothing contained herein shall prevent Landlord and Tenant from jointly selecting a single appraiser to determine the fair market rent of the Premises, in which event the determination of such appraisal shall be conclusively deemed the fair market rent of the Premises.
(vi) Each party shall bear the fees and expenses of the appraiser selected by or for it, and the fees and expenses of the third appraiser (or the joint appraiser if one joint appraiser if one joint appraiser is used) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Landlord and fifty percent (50%) by Tenant.
F. The option rights of Tenant under the within article 20 of this Lease, and the extended term thereunder, are granted solely and exclusively for Tenants’ personal benefit and may not be assigned or transferred by Tenant other than as part of a Voluntary Permitted Transfer.
G. The Base Monthly Rent for the remainder of the Option Period, if any, shall be adjusted by annual CPI increases.

For purposes of this Sublease, all references to “Prime Lease” hereunder shall refer to the Prime Lease, excluding those Sections set forth in Section 2(a)(xiii). As between Sublandlord and Subtenant, the provisions of Section 35.1 shall not apply, but shall apply as between Sublandlord and Prime Landlord, and Subtenant and Prime Landlord. Subtenant expressly assumes and agrees to comply with all provisions of the Prime Lease and perform all of the obligations on the part of the “Tenant” to be performed under the Prime Lease (except where such obligation arises by reason of a (i) breach of Sublandlord under this Sublease, or (ii) breach of Sublandlord under the Prime Lease (other than a breach of the Prime Lease caused by Subtenant’s breach of its obligations under this Sublease)). In the event that the Prime Lease is terminated for any reason whatsoever, then subject to the provisions of, and Prime Landlord’s rights under the Prime Lease, this Sublease shall terminate simultaneously with such termination without any liability of Sublandlord to Subtenant. Subject to Subtenant’s performance of its obligations under this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not default in its monetary obligations under the Prime Lease (beyond any applicable notice and cure period).
(b) During the term of this Sublease, Sublandlord shall promptly deliver to Subtenant copies of any and all notices of default delivered to or received from Prime Landlord.
(c) Sublandlord hereby warrants and represents to Subtenant that (i) the Prime Lease is in full force and effect and Sublandlord has not received any notice of default thereunder from Prime Landlord which remains uncured as of the date hereof, and (ii) to Sublandlord’s knowledge, neither Sublandlord or Prime Landlord is in default under the Prime Lease (beyond any applicable notice and cure period), and there are no circumstances which with the giving of notice or passage of time would give rise to a default under the Prime Lease.
