Not more than 2 days thereafter, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant the written objections, questions or comments of Landlord and the TI Architect with regard to the TI Design Drawings. Tenant shall cause the TI Design Drawings to be revised to address such written comments and shall resubmit said drawings to Landlord for approval within 2 days thereafter.

Common Area Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease and such rules and regulations as Landlord may from time to time reasonably prescribe, Tenant and Tenant’s employees, invitees and customers shall, in common with other occupants of the Parcel, and their respective employees, invitees and customers, and others entitled to the use thereof, have the non-exclusive right to use the access roads, parking areas and facilities provided and designated by Landlord for the general use and convenience of the occupants of the Parcel, which areas and facilities are referred to herein as “Common Area.” This right shall terminate upon the termination of this Lease. Landlord reserves the right from time to time to make changes in the shape, size, location, amount and extent of the Common Area; provided that no such changes shall prevent or materially diminish or adversely affect Tenant’s ability to have access to and use of the Premises or Tenant’s allocation of parking spaces. Landlord further reserves the right to promulgate such rules and regulations relating to the use of the Common Area, and any part or parts thereof, as Landlord may reasonably deem appropriate for the best interest of the occupants of the Building. The rules and regulations shall be binding upon Tenant upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant, and Tenant shall abide by them and cooperate in their observance. Such rules and regulations may be reasonably amended by Landlord from time to time, with advance notice, and all amendments shall be effective upon delivery of a copy of them to Tenant. Tenant shall have the exclusive use of Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the parking spaces in the Common Area on a “first-come, first served” basis at no cost to Tenant during the Term or any extension or renewal of the Term. Tenant shall not at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s trucks or other vehicles, or the trucks or other vehicles of others, adjacent to loading areas so as to interfere in any way with the use of such areas, nor shall Tenant at any time park or permit the parking of Tenant’s vehicles or trucks, or the vehicles or trucks of Tenant’s suppliers or others, in any portion of the Common Area not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not abandon any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any portion of the Common Area. Tenant shall make no alterations, improvements or additions to the Common Area without prior written approval of Landlord. Landlord shall at all times operate, manage, insure, maintain and repair the Common Area in good order, condition and repair. The manner in which the Common Area shall be maintained and the expenditures for such maintenance shall be at the unfettered discretion of Landlord. Except as excluded herein or in Addendum One, the cost of such repair, maintenance, operation, insurance and management, including without limitation, maintenance and repair of landscaping, irrigation systems, paving, sidewalks, fences, and lighting, shall be a Common Area Charge and Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of such costs as provided in Paragraph 12 below.
Tenant’s Signage Tenant shall be entitled to install the following signage in connection with Tenant's lease of the Premises (collectively, the "Tenant's Signage"):
TENANT PARKING Subject to the terms of this Article 28, Tenant shall have the right to rent from Landlord, commencing on the Rent Commencement Date, the amount of unreserved parking passes set forth in Section 9 of the Summary (of which up to five (5) may be converted to reserved parking passes), on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term, which parking passes shall pertain to the Property parking facility. Tenant shall pay to Landlord for automobile parking passes on a monthly basis the prevailing rate charged from time to time at the location of such parking passes; provided, however, during the first year of the Lease Term following the Rent Commencement Date only, Tenant shall be entitled to rent the unreserved parking passes at a rate of One Hundred Fifty and 00/100 Dollars ($150.00) per unreserved parking pass per month; and provided, further, that thereafter, the prevailing rate charged by Landlord shall be subject to market rate increases consistent with the parking rates being charged by landlords of Comparable Buildings in the Mid-Market/Civic Center Area. The foregoing parking rates may only be utilized by Tenant, its Permitted Transferee Assignees and any other assignee, sublessee, or transferee of the Tenant’s interest in this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall be responsible for the full amount of any taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with the renting of such parking passes by Tenant or the use of the parking facility by Tenant. Tenant may change the number of parking passes rented pursuant to this Article 28 upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord; provided that notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Lease, if Tenant elects to rent less than all of the unreserved parking passes at any time during the Lease Term, then Tenant’s right to again increase the number of parking passes that it elects to rent under this Lease shall be subject to availability (as determined by Landlord in its reasonable discretion); and provided, further, that in no event shall Tenant be entitled to rent more than the amount and type of parking passes allocated to Tenant as set forth in Section 9 of the Summary during the Lease Term. Tenant’s continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are reasonably prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking passes are located, including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord and Tenant’s cooperation in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations. So long as the same do not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s parking rights, Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Property parking facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Property parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant, except in connection with a Transfer of the Premises pursuant to Article 14 of this Lease, without Landlord’s prior approval. Tenant may validate visitor parking by such method or methods as the Landlord may establish, at the validation rate from time to time generally applicable to visitor parking. If Landlord adds a parking valet, Tenant shall have the right to use such valet’s services at the rate established by Landlord for the Building. In addition, if Landlord expands the parking area, Tenant shall have the right to its proportionate share of such additional spaces.
Premises Building Project and Common Areas 1.1 Premises, Building, Project and Common Areas.
LESSEE'S IMPROVEMENTS Since Lessor is the Insuring Party, Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor under the terms of this Lease.
Rentable Area of the Premises The term "Rentable Area of the Premises" shall mean 7,000 square feet, which Landlord and Tenant have stipulated as the Rentable Area of the Premises. Tenant acknowledges that the Rentable Area of the Premises includes the usable area of the premises, without deduction for columns or projections, multiplied by a load factor to reflect a share of certain areas, which may include lobbies, corridors, mechanical, utility, janitorial, boiler and service rooms and closets, restrooms and other public, common and service areas of the Building.
Tenant’s Signs Except as expressly provided in this Article 32, without Landlord’s prior consent, which Landlord may withhold in its sole discretion, Tenant shall not place on the Premises or on the Building any exterior signs nor any interior signs that are visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building. Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses relating to any such sign approved by Landlord, including without limitation, the cost of the installation and maintenance of the sign. On the date of expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove all signs and repair any damage caused by such removal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the lobby signage rights of Scient Corporation (“Scient”) are relinquished pursuant to the terms of that certain lease between Scient Corporation and Landlord with respect to the 5th and 6th Floors of the Building (the “Scient Premises”), then, subject to obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent as to size, design and location, which consent shall not be unreasonably withhold, Tenant shall have the right to install signage in the lobby of the Building for the remainder of the Term of this Lease so long as such signage shall not be more than 80% as large as the Del Monte signage. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Scient Lease contains the following provision, which shall not be amended by Landlord without obtaining Tenant’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld: “If Tenant [Scient] at any time pursuant to the terms of this Article 17 [of the Scient Lease] either (a) subleases less than the entire Premises [Scient Premises] or (ii) subleases all of the Premises [Scient Premises] to a subtenant, other than Epicentric, whose “creditworthiness” is less than that of Epicentric, such subletting shall result in Tenant’s [Scient’s] relinquishment for the balance of the Term of any rights to signage in the ground floor lobby of the Building as provided in Article 32 [of the Scient Lease]. For purposes of determining “creditworthiness” under this Section 17.10 [of the Scient Lease], the company with the greater net worth shall be considered the more creditworthy company. Net worth shall be determined according to the following formula: assets minus current and long term liabilities equals net worth, as determined according to generally accepted accounting principles.”
Common Areas Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the Rules and Regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the “Common Areas”). The Common Areas shall consist of the “Project Common Areas” and the “Building Common Areas.” The term “Project Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord or areas within the Project that the occupants of the Building are permitted to utilize pursuant to a recorded declaration and which areas shall be maintained in accordance with the declaration. The term “Building Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the Building reasonably designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the reasonable discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to the Rules and Regulations as Landlord may make from time to time. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that, in connection therewith, Landlord shall perform such closures, alterations, additions or changes in a commercially reasonable manner and, in connection therewith, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any material interference with Tenant’s use of and access to the Premises.
Storage Space A. During the initial Term and any renewal thereof, Landlord agrees to lease to Tenant and Tenant accepts the space containing approximately (a) 800 square feet on the ground floor of the Building, (b) 400 square feet on the ground floor of the Building, and 65 square feet on the ground floor of the Building, as shown on EXHIBIT A-5 attached hereto (collectively, the "Storage Space"). However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the portion of the Storage Space described above containing approximately 400 rentable square feet shall not be leased to Tenant until such space becomes available, which is scheduled to occur on or about February 1, 2000. Further, the portion of the Storage Space containing 65 square feet described above is available for lease to Tenant only if Tenant pays Landlord the reasonable cost to install a demising wall and door to separately demise such space. In addition to the Storage Space described above, Tenant shall have an option to lease an additional approximately 800 square feet of storage space, located on the ground floor of the Building as shown on EXHIBIT A-6 attached hereto (the "Option Storage Space") when such Option Storage Space becomes available. Tenant shall exercise the foregoing option as follows: When Landlord informs Tenant that the Option Storage Space is available for lease by Tenant (but prior to leasing the Option Storage Space to any party other than the current occupant of such space or its successors or assigns), Tenant may elect to lease such space, upon the terms and conditions contained in this Section VII (in which event, the Option Storage Space shall be included within the definition of Storage Space hereunder), by providing written notice to Landlord within 7 days after Tenant's receipt of the notice from Landlord. Failure to provide such written notice to Landlord within the 7 day period shall be deemed a waiver of Tenant's option rights with respect to the Option Storage Space. The Storage Space shall be used by Tenant for the storage of equipment, inventory or other non-perishable items normally used in Tenant's business, and for no other purpose whatsoever. Tenant agrees to keep the Storage Space in a neat and orderly fashion and to keep all stored items in cartons, file cabinets or other suitable containers. All items stored in the Storage Space shall be elevated at least 6 inches above the floor on wooden pallets, and shall be at least 18 inches below the bottom of all sprinklers located in the ceiling of the Storage Space, if any. Tenant shall not store anything in the Storage Space which is unsafe or which otherwise may create a hazardous condition, or which may increase Landlord's insurance rates, or cause a cancellation or modification of Landlord's insurance coverage. Without limitation, Tenant shall not store any flammable, combustible or explosive fluid, chemical or substance nor any perishable food or beverage products, except with Landlord's prior written approval. Landlord reserves the right to adopt and enforce reasonable rules and regulations governing the use of the Storage Space from time to time. Upon expiration or earlier termination of this Lease or Tenant's rights under this Section, Tenant shall completely vacate and surrender the Storage Space to Landlord in accordance with the terms of this Lease. Without limitation, Tenant shall leave the Storage Space in the condition in which it was delivered to Tenant, reasonable wear and tear excepted, broom-clean and empty of all personalty and other items placed therein by or on behalf of Tenant.
