LANDLORD'S SERVICES 6.01. Landlord shall:
(a) maintain in reasonable condition and repair the roof, foundation, structure, infrastructure, utilities, HVAC, other Building operating systems, exterior and common areas of the Building;
(b) furnish reasonable amounts of heat and air-conditioning (.HVAC.) to the Demised Premises from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. on Monday through Friday except holidays, and on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. upon request. After hours HVAC shall be provided by Landlord upon request of Tenant, so long as all costs of providing such after hours service, as reasonably estimated by Landlord, are borne by Tenant. Irrespective of the foregoing, as to each whole floor occupied by Tenant, in lieu of Saturday HVAC hours, Tenant shall be provided with three hundred (300) free hours of HVAC service per year (pro rated for the first and last lease years) at such times as Tenant may request; however, there shall be no carry over of any unused free hours from one calendar year to the next. Chilled fluid lines shall be available in the Building to permit Tenant to obtain supplemental air conditioning on a twenty-four (24) hour basis, but Tenant shall be responsible for all installation and energy costs associated therewith;
(c) provide sufficient elevator service for reasonable access to the Demised Premises;
(d) furnish reasonable janitorial services for the Demised Premises;
(e) furnish a reasonable amount of electricity for normal office use in the Demised Premises; however, Landlord's agreement to furnish electricity does not include electricity for electrical equipment requiring voltage greater than that supplied by the Building's standard receptacle circuits unless Landlord's prior written consent is obtained, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld so long as Tenant is responsible for all costs of installation and which consent shall be deemed to have been granted if such requirement is contained in Exhibits! C or C-l of this Lease;
(f) furnish in the first floor lobby of the Building a directory of the firm or business names of tenants of the Building: and
(g) provide access to hookups to any public or private right-of-ways adjacent to the Land for utilities or other communications systems available to Landlord or Tenant and accessible by Tenant by air or underground at Tenant's sole cost and expense
6.02. If Landlord defaults in the performance or observance of any provision of Paragraph 6.01 (except to the extent permitted under Paragraph 6.04), Tenant shall give Landlord notice specifying in what manner Landlord has defaulted and if such default shall not be cured by Landlord within the period of time provided for elsewhere in this Lease, and otherwise within thirty (30) consecutive days after the delivery of such notice (except that if such default cannot be cured within said thirty (30) day period, this period shall be extended for a reasonable additional time, provided that Landlord commences to cure such default within the thirty (30) day period and proceeds diligently thereafter to effect such cure), Tenant may terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity to Tenant; provided, however, that if the Demised Premises is not supplied with utilities required pursuant to the terms of this Lease due to circumstances within the control of Landlord for a period in excess of 24 hours after of receipt by Landlord of Tenant's verbal notice of such failure, Tenant may terminate this Lease or pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity. No such termination shall relieve Landlord of its obligations under the Lease, and such obligations shall survive any such termination. No action on the part of Tenant shall limit or prejudice the right of Tenant to obtain the maximum amount of damages allowed by any statute or rule of law related to any such default by Landlord.
6.03. If, in Landlord's opinion, any Tenant shall:
(a) use any utility, including but not limited to electricity or water, in an excessive, extravagant or unreasonable manner, Landlord may install meters measuring the quantity of such utility used in the Demised Premises and Tenant, on demand, shall pay Landlord (i) all costs incident to said installation and necessary appurtenances thereto and (ii) additional rent equal to the cost of the utility used at rates equal to the rate that the supplying utility company with its own equipment would then charge Tenant for such service. If this method of furnishing utilities to Tenant is utilized, an adjustment will be made to Operating Expenses under Section 5.02 to reflect Tenant's payment of its own utilities in such a manner as to avoid requiring Tenant to pay more than the excess utilities and its ratable share of normal utilities usage included in Operating Expenses; and
(b) require removal of refuse and rubbish in larger quantities or more often than is reasonable in the rendering of janitorial service, Tenant on demand shall pay the removal cost to Landlord.
(c) No action will be taken by Landlord under Section 6.03(a) or 6.03
Landlord Services Any services provided by, or on behalf of, Landlord will not prevent any amounts received or accrued from qualifying as "Rents from real property" (within the meaning of Section 856(d)(2) or Section 512(b)(3) of the Code).
TENANT’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Tenant at its sole expense shall comply with all applicable laws and governmental regulations governing the Premises and make all repairs necessary to keep the Premises in the condition as existed on the Commencement Date (or on any later date that the improvements may have been installed), excepting ordinary wear and tear, including without limitation the electrical and mechanical systems, any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises, all walls, glass, windows, doors, door closures, hardware, fixtures, electrical, plumbing, fire extinguisher equipment and other equipment. Any damage or deterioration of the Premises shall not be deemed ordinary wear and tear if the same could have been prevented by good maintenance practices by Tenant. As part of its maintenance obligations hereunder, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request, provide Landlord with copies of all maintenance schedules, reports and notices prepared by, for or on behalf of Tenant. Tenant shall obtain preventive maintenance contracts from a licensed heating and air conditioning contractor to provide for regular inspection and maintenance of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems servicing the Premises, all subject to Landlord’s approval. All repairs shall be at least equal in quality to the original work, shall be made only by a licensed contractor approved in writing in advance by Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall be made only at the time or times approved by Landlord. Any contractor utilized by Tenant shall be subject to Landlord’s standard requirements for contractors, as modified from time to time. Landlord shall have the right at all times (upon at least 24 hours’ prior notice) to inspect Tenant’s maintenance of all equipment (including without limitation air conditioning, ventilating and heating equipment), and may impose reasonable restrictions and requirements with respect to repairs, as provided in Section 7.3, and the provisions of Section 7.4 shall apply to all repairs. Alternatively, Landlord may elect to make any repair or maintenance required hereunder on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant’s expense, and Tenant shall promptly reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred upon submission of an invoice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.1, in the event Tenant’s obligation for compliance with all applicable laws and governmental regulations, or making repairs, results in a capital improvement on Tenant’s part (or Tenant’s being obligated to reimburse Landlord for a capital improvement), Tenant shall only be responsible for the amortized cost of such capital improvement (amortized at a market cost of funds as reasonably determined by Landlord) over the useful life of such improvements during the Term (except in the event obligation for any such capital improvement is required due to Tenant’s particular use of the Premises, in which case Tenant shall be fully responsible for the entire cost and installation of such capital improvement).
LANDLORD’S MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR Subject to Section 7.1 and Article XI, Landlord shall provide service, maintenance and repair with respect to any air conditioning, ventilating or heating equipment which serves the Premises (exclusive, however, of supplemental HVAC equipment serving only the Premises), and shall maintain in good repair the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (including exterior glass), and the structural, electrical and mechanical systems, except that Tenant at its expense shall make all repairs which Landlord deems reasonably necessary as a result of the act or negligence of Tenant, its agents, employees, invitees, subtenants or contractors. Landlord shall have the right to employ or designate any reputable person or firm, including any employee or agent of Landlord or any of Landlord's affiliates or divisions, to perform any service, repair or maintenance function. Landlord need not make any other improvements or repairs except as specifically required under this Lease, and nothing contained in this Section shall limit Landlord's right to reimbursement from Tenant for maintenance, repair costs and replacement costs as provided elsewhere in this Lease. Tenant understands that it shall not make repairs at Landlord's expense or by rental offset. Tenant further understands that Landlord shall not be required to make any repairs to the roof, foundations, footings, the exterior surfaces of the exterior walls of the Building (excluding exterior glass), or structural, electrical or mechanical systems unless and until Tenant has notified Landlord in writing of the need for such repair and Landlord shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter to commence and complete said repair, if warranted. All costs of any maintenance, repairs and replacement on the part of Landlord provided hereunder shall be considered part of Project Costs. Tenant further agrees that if Tenant fails to report any such need for repair in writing within sixty (60) days of its discovery by Tenant, Tenant shall be responsible for any costs and expenses and other damages related to such repair which are in excess of those which would have resulted had such need for repair been reported to Landlord within such sixty (60) day period.
LANDLORD'S MAINTENANCE Subject to the provisions of Articles 4 and 14, Landlord shall, as an Operating Expense, maintain and make necessary repairs to the foundations, roofs, exterior walls, and the structural elements of the Building, the electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, mechanical, communication, security and the fire and life safety systems of the Building and those corridors, washrooms and lobbies which are Common Areas of the Building, except that: (a) Landlord shall not be responsible for the maintenance or repair of any floor or wall coverings in the Premises or any of such systems which are located within the Premises and are supplemental or special to the Building’s standard systems; and (b) the cost of performing any of said maintenance or repairs whether to the Premises or to the Building caused by the negligence of Tenant, its employees, agents, servants, licensees, subtenants, contractors or invitees, shall be paid by Tenant, subject to the waivers set forth in Section 16.4. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any expense, injury, loss or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or in connection with the use of, any adjacent or nearby building, land, street or alley.
Use of Basement and Service Areas The basement(s) and service areas, if any, as located within the

Tenant shall be responsible to enter into a servicing agreement for the heating and air conditioning equipment, at Tenant's expense satisfaction to Landlord. Landlord shall in no event be responsible for replacement of any broken windows, regardless of the cause thereof, the responsibility for which being that of Tenant. Tenant shall make no alterations or structural changes to the improvements on the demised premises or place signs on the exterior thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Tenant shall also be billed directly for and pay the maintenance fees charged by the Northgate Center Association and covering the term of this Lease, as it may be renewed. Upon the commencement of this Lease and the termination of this Lease, if it does not coincide with the Association's billing cycle, Tenant shall pay to Landlord his pro rata amount of the Association fees until the beginning of the next billing cycle, if at the beginning of the Lease term, and from the end of the last billing cycle to the date of termination, upon termination of the Lease.
LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO PERFORM TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS (a) Without limiting the rights and remedies of Landlord contained in Sections 20.2 and 20.3 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 Landlord’s 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 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 Tenant’s Agents.
(b) Without limiting the rights of Landlord under Sections 20.2 and 20.3 above, Landlord shall have the right at Landlord’s option, without any obligation to do so, to perform any of Tenant’s covenants or obligations under this Lease without notice to Tenant in the case of an emergency, as determined by Landlord in its sole and absolute judgment, or if Landlord determines, in its sole and absolute judgment, that such action is necessary or desirable to avoid imminent harm to the Premises or any persons.
(c) If Landlord performs any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder in accordance with this Section 20.4, 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 promptly pay to Landlord upon demand, as Additional Charges, the full amount thereof with interest thereon from the date of payment by Landlord at the lower of (i) ten percent (10%) per annum, or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
Landlord’s Right to Perform Tenant’s Covenants Tenant covenants and agrees that, if it shall at any time fail to make any payment or perform any other act on its part to be made or performed as in this Lease provided, then Landlord, in its sole discretion may after due notice to, or demand upon, Tenant and subject to the limitations set forth below, make any payment or perform any other act on the part of Tenant to be made and performed as in this Lease provided, in such manner and to such extent as Landlord may reasonably deem desirable, and in exercising any such rights, Landlord may pay necessary and incidental costs and expenses, employ counsel, and incur and pay reasonable attorneys’ fees. The making of any such payment or the performing of any other act by Landlord pursuant to this Article shall not waive, or release Tenant from, any obligations of Tenant in this Lease contained. All sums so paid by Landlord and all reasonably necessary and incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord shall, except as otherwise in this Lease expressly provided, be payable to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay any such sum or sums promptly, and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of the Base Rent. Whenever practicable, Landlord, before proceeding as provided in this Section 12.4, shall give Tenant notice in writing of the failure of Tenant which Landlord proposes to remedy, and shall allow Tenant such length of time as may be reasonable in the circumstances, consistent with any grace periods contained herein, but not exceeding 30 days from the giving of notice, to remedy the failure itself and, if Tenant shall not remedy the failure in the time so allowed, Landlord shall be deemed to have given “due notice” and may proceed as provided in this Section 12.4; provided that nothing in this Section shall prevent Landlord from acting without notice to Tenant in case of any emergency wherein there is danger to property or person or where there may exist any violation of legal requirements including but not limited to the presence of Hazardous Materials, in which event no notice shall be required.
Tenant’s Responsibilities Except as expressly provided in Paragraph 10.1 above, Tenant shall, at its sole cost, maintain the entire Premises and every part thereof, including without limitation, windows, skylights, window frames, plate glass, freight docks, doors and related hardware, interior walls and partitions, and the electrical, plumbing, lighting, heating and air conditioning systems in good order, condition and repair. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, every six (6) months during the Lease Term, a certificate of maintenance or its equivalent, signed by a licensed HVAC repair and maintenance contractor and stating that the heating and air conditioning systems servicing the Premises have been inspected, serviced and are in good order, condition and repair. Tenant's failure to deliver said certificate or its equivalent within thirty (30) days following written notice from Landlord that said certificate is past due shall be a Default by Tenant. If Tenant fails to make repairs or perform maintenance work required of Tenant hereunder within fifteen (15) days after notice from Landlord specifying the need for such repairs or maintenance work, Landlord or Landlord's agents may, in addition to all other rights and remedies available hereunder or by law and without waiving any alternative remedies, enter into the Premises and make such repairs and/or perform such maintenance work. If Landlord makes such repairs and/or performs such maintenance work, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand and as Additional Rent, for the cost of such repairs and/or maintenance work. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any damage, inconvenience or interference with the use of the Premises by Tenant or Tenant's agents as a result of Landlord performing any such repairs or maintenance (unless such damage, inconvenience or interference is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its agents, employees or contractors); provided, however, under no circumstances shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for claims of lost profits, loss of business or lost income. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord, on demand and as Additional Rent, for the cost of damage to the Premises and/or Common Area caused by Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees or contractors. Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any statute now or hereafter in effect (including without limitation the provisions of subsection 1 of Section 1932, Section 1941 and Section 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect) which would otherwise afford Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's expense (or to deduct the cost of such repairs from Rentals due hereunder) or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's failure to keep the Premises in good and sanitary order.
