maintenance of the Premises and all sidewalks and parking areas immediately adjacent to the
Premises, by either party, their agents, representatives, employees or contractors.
(a) Tenant’s Commercial General Liability. Tenant will maintain commercial

(b) Landlord’s Insurance Requirements. Landlord shall, at its own expense,
maintain a policy or policies of comprehensive general liability insurance with respect to
the respective activities of each in the Premises with the premiums thereon fully paid on or
before due date, issued by and binding upon some insurance company, and, such insurance
shall afford minimum protection of not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit coverage
of bodily injury, property damage or combination thereof. In addition, Landlord shall
maintain fire and extended coverage insurance on the Premises in such amounts as Landlord
shall deem appropriate. Landlord shall not be required to provide any coverage that would
be duplicative of the coverages described at Section 10.1(a).
(c) Other Insurance Provisions. Both parties, their partners, managers,
officers and directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, and agents will be named as
additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of the other party’s use,
occupancy, or maintenance of the Premises or activities performed thereon, on all liability
policies carried by both parties. Tenant’s insurance will be primary insurance over any
insurance carried by Landlord. Tenant’s Workers’ Compensation insurer will agree to waive
all rights of subrogation against Landlord and its partners, managers, officers and
directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries and affiliates for losses arising from work or
activities performed by Tenant. For all policies of insurance that must be maintained by
both parties under this Lease, both parties agree to notify each other at least 30 days
prior to any cancellation or reduction of coverage.
10.2 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant agree that all insurance required to be
carried under Section 9.1 and other property damage insurance which may be carried by either
of them will be endorsed with a clause providing that any release from liability of, or
waiver of claim for, recovery from the other party entered into in writing by the insured
thereunder prior to any loss or damage will not affect the validity of such policy or the
right of the insured to recover under such policy, and providing further that the insurer
waives all rights of subrogation which such insurer might have against the other party (and,
when the “other party” is Landlord, such waiver will apply to and Property Manager as well).
Without limiting any release or waiver of liability or recovery set forth elsewhere in this
Lease, and notwithstanding anything in this Lease which may appear to be to the contrary,
each of the parties hereto waives all claims for recovery from the other party for any loss
or damage to any of its property insured (or required by the terms of this Lease to be
insured) under valid and collectible insurance policies to the extent of any recovery
collectible (or would have been collectible if the insurance required under this Lease had
been maintained) under such insurance policies; provided, however, that this waiver will not
apply to the portion of any damage that is not reimbursable by the damaged party’s insurer
because of the deductible portion of the damaged party’s insurance coverage.
| 11. | DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION. |
11.1 Termination Options. If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty Landlord
will, promptly after learning of such damage, notify Tenant in writing of the time necessary
to repair or restore such damage, as estimated by Landlord’s architect, engineer or
contractor. If such estimate states that repair or restoration of all of
such damage that
was caused to the portion of the Premises that is necessary for Tenant’s occupancy cannot be
completed within 90 days from the date of such damage, or if such damage occurred within the
last 12 months of the Term and such estimate states that repair or restoration of all such
damage that was caused to the Premises or to any other portion of the Premises necessary for
Tenant’s occupancy cannot be completed within 30 days from the date of such damage, then
Tenant will have the option to terminate this Lease. If Tenant exercises its option to
terminate this Lease, the Term will expire and this Lease will terminate 10 days after notice
of termination is delivered; provided, however, that Rent for the period commencing on the
date of such damage until the date this Lease terminates will be reduced to the reasonable
value of any use or occupation of the Premises by Tenant during such period.
11.2 Repair Obligations. If the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty and
Tenant does not terminate this Lease according to Section 11.1, then Landlord will repair and
restore such damage with reasonable promptness, subject to reasonable delays and delays
caused by matters beyond Landlord’s control. Landlord will have no liability to Tenant and
Tenant will not be entitled to terminate this Lease if such repairs and restoration are not
in fact completed within the estimated time period. In no event will Landlord be obligated
to repair, restore or replace any of the property required to be insured by Tenant according
to Section 10.1. Tenant agrees to repair, restore or replace, at its expense, all leasehold
improvements required to be insured by Tenant according to Section 9.1 as soon as possible
after the date of damage to the prior condition. However, in connection with its repair and
restoration of such damage, Landlord may, at its option, elect to repair and restore the
damage, if any, caused to any or all of such leasehold improvements required to be insured by
Tenant. If Landlord makes such election, Landlord will be entitled to all proceeds of the
insurance policy described in Section 9.1 applicable to the leasehold improvements Landlord
so elects to repair or restore and may limit its repair or restoration of such leasehold
improvements to that which may be paid for in full by such proceeds.
11.3 Rent Abatement. If any fire or casualty damage renders the Premises untenantable
and if this Lease is not terminated according to Section 11.1, then Rent will xxxxx beginning
on the date of such damage. Such abatement will end on the date Landlord has substantially
completed the repairs and restoration Landlord is required to perform according to Section
11.2 and Tenant has had a reasonable period of time to substantially complete any repairs and
restoration Tenant is required to perform according to Section 11.2. Such abatement will be
in an amount bearing the same ratio to the total amount of Rent for such period as the
untenantable portion of the Premises bears to the entire Premises. In no event will Landlord
be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant
resulting in any way from damage caused by fire or other casualty or the repair of such
damage.
| 12. | WAIVERS AND INDEMNITIES. |
12.1 Waiver. No waiver of any default of Landlord or Tenant hereunder shall be implied
from any omission to take any action on account of such default if such default persists or
is repeated, and no express waiver shall affect any default other than the default
specified
in the express waiver and that only for the time and to the extent therein stated. One or
more waivers by Landlord or Tenant shall not be construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach
of the same covenant, term or condition.
12.2 Indemnity. Subject to Section 10.2 and except to the extent caused by the
misconduct or negligence of Landlord, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws,
Tenant will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord, its partners, managers, members,
officers, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees and agents from and against any and
all liability, loss, claims, demands, damages or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’
fees) due to or arising out of any accident or occurrence on or about the Premises
(including, without limitation, accidents or occurrences resulting in injury, death, property
damage or theft) or any willful or negligent act or omission of or breach of this Lease by
Tenant or anyone for whom Tenant is legally responsible. Tenant’s obligations under this
Section 12.2 will survive the expiration or early termination of the Term.
| 13. | CONDEMNATION. |
13.1 Full Taking. If all or substantially all of the Premises are taken for any public
or quasi-public use under any applicable Laws or by right of eminent domain, or are sold to
the condemning authority in lieu of condemnation, then this Lease will terminate as of the
date when the condemning authority takes physical possession of the Premises.
13.2 Partial Taking.
(a) Termination of Lease. If only part of the Premises is thus taken or sold,
and if after such partial taking, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, alteration or
reconstruction is not economically justified, then Tenant (whether or not the Premises are
affected) may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord within 60 days after
the taking.
(b) Effective Date of Termination. Termination by Tenant will be effective as
of the date when physical possession of the applicable portion of the Premises is taken by
the condemning authority.
(c) Election to Continue Lease. If Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease
upon a partial taking of a portion of the Premises, the Rent payable under this Lease will
be diminished by an amount allocable to the portion of the Premises which was so taken or
sold. If this Lease is not terminated upon a partial taking of the Premises, Landlord will,
at Landlord’s sole expense, promptly restore and reconstruct the Premises to substantially
their former condition to the extent the same is feasible. However, Landlord will not be
required to spend for such restoration or reconstruction an amount in excess of
the net amount received by Landlord as compensation or damages for the part of the
Premises so taken.
| 14. | ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. |
14.1 General Prohibition. No assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any part of
the Premises shall be permitted without the written consent of Landlord.
14.2 Tenant Still Liable. No subletting or assignment shall release Tenant or Tenant’s
guarantor, if any, of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of
Tenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Tenant
hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to
be a waiver by Landlord of any provision hereof.
| 15. | PERSONAL PROPERTY. |
15.1 Installation and Removal. Tenant may install in the Premises its personal property
(including Tenant’s usual trade fixtures) in a proper manner, provided that no such
installation will interfere with or damage the mechanical, plumbing or electrical systems or
the structure of the Premises, and provided further, that if such installation would require
any change, addition or improvement to the Premises, such installation will be subject to
Section 8.1. Any such personal property installed in the Premises by Tenant (a) may be
removed from the Premises from time to time in the ordinary course of Tenant’s business or in
the course of making any changes, additions or improvements to the Premises permitted under
Section 8.1, and (b) will be removed by Tenant at the end of the Term according to Section
16.1. Tenant will promptly repair at its expense any damage to the Project resulting from
such installation or removal.
15.2 Responsibility. Tenant will be solely responsible for all costs and expenses
related to personal property used or stored in the Premises. Tenant will pay any taxes or
other governmental impositions levied upon or assessed against such personal property, or
upon Tenant for the ownership or use of such personal property, on or before the due date for
payment. Such personal property taxes or impositions are not included in Costs.
| 16. | END OF TERM. |
16.1 Surrender. Upon the expiration or other termination of the Term, Tenant will
immediately vacate and surrender possession of the Premises in good order, repair and
condition, except for ordinary wear and tear. Upon the expiration or other termination of
the Term, Tenant agrees to remove (a) all changes, additions and improvements to the Premises
the removal of which Landlord requested at the time Landlord consented to their installation,
and (b) all of Tenant’s trade fixtures, office furniture, office equipment and other personal
property. Tenant will reimburse Landlord the cost of repairing any damage to the Premises
caused by the removal of any such items. Any of Tenant’s property remaining in the Premises
will be conclusively deemed to have been abandoned by Tenant and may be appropriated, stored,
sold, destroyed or otherwise disposed of by Landlord without notice or obligation to account
to or compensate Tenant,
and Tenant will pay Landlord on demand all costs incurred by Landlord relating to such
abandoned property.
Tenant’s obligations under this Section 15.1 will survive the expiration
or early termination of this Lease.
16.2 Holding Over. Tenant understands that it does not have the right to hold over and
Landlord may exercise any and all remedies at law or in equity to recover possession of the
Premises, as well as any damages incurred by Landlord, due to Tenant’s failure to vacate the
Premises and deliver possession to Landlord as required by this Lease. If Tenant holds over
after the Expiration Date with Landlord’s prior written consent, Tenant will be deemed to be
a tenant from month-to-month, at a monthly Base Rent, payable in advance, equal to 150% of
monthly Base Rent payable during the last year of the Term, and Tenant will be bound by all
of the other terms, covenants and agreements of this Lease as the same may apply to a
month-to-month tenancy, including, without limitation, the obligation to pay Operating
Expenses. If Tenant holds over after the Expiration Date without Landlord’s prior written
consent, Tenant will be deemed a tenant at sufferance, at a daily Base Rent, payable in
advance, equal to 200% of the Base Rent per day payable during the last year of the Term, and
Tenant will be bound by all of the other terms, covenants and agreements of this Lease as the
same may apply to a tenancy at sufferance, including, without limitation, the obligation to
pay Operating Expenses.
| 17. | DEFAULT AND REMEDIES. |
17.1 Default by Tenant. Each of the following events will constitute a material breach
by Tenant and a “Default” under this Lease:
(a) Failure to Pay Rent. Tenant fails to pay Base Rent, Operating Expenses or
any other Rent payable by Tenant under the terms of this Lease when due. Tenant
shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice thereof to cure such Default.
(b) Failure to Perform Other Obligations. Tenant breaches or fails to comply
with any other provision of this Lease applicable to Tenant, and such breach or
noncompliance continues for a period of 30 days after notice by Landlord to Tenant; or, if
such breach or noncompliance cannot be reasonably cured within such 30-day period, Tenant
does not in good faith commence to cure such breach or noncompliance within such 30-day
period or does not diligently complete such cure within 30 days after such notice from
Landlord. However, if such breach or noncompliance causes or results in (i) a dangerous
condition on the Premises or any portion of the Project, (ii) any insurance coverage carried
by Landlord or Tenant with respect to the Premises or any portion of the Project being
jeopardized, or (iii) a material disturbance to another tenant, then a Default will exist if
such breach or noncompliance is not cured as soon as reasonably possible after notice by
Landlord to Tenant, and in any event if not cured within 30 days after such notice. For
purposes of this Section 17.1(b), financial inability will not be deemed a reasonable ground
for failure to immediately cure any breach of, or failure to comply with, the provisions of
this Lease.
(c) Nonoccupancy of Premises. Tenant fails to occupy and use the Premises in
compliance with Section 4 of this Lease or vacates and abandons substantially all of the
Premises.
(d) Transfer of Interest Without Consent. Tenant’s interest under this Lease
or in the Premises is transferred or passes to, or devolves upon, any other party in
violation of Section 14.
(e) Execution and Attachment Against Tenant. Tenant’s interest under this
Lease or in the Premises is taken upon execution or by other process of law directed against
Tenant, or is subject to any attachment by any creditor or claimant against Tenant.
(f) Bankruptcy or Related Proceedings. Tenant files a petition in bankruptcy
or insolvency, or for reorganization or arrangement under any bankruptcy or insolvency Laws,
or voluntarily takes advantage of any such Laws by answer or otherwise, or dissolves or
makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or involuntary proceedings under any such
Laws or for the dissolution of Tenant are instituted against Tenant, or a receiver or
trustee is appointed for the Premises or for all or substantially all of Tenant’s property.
17.2 Remedies. If any Default occurs, Landlord will have the right, at Landlord’s
election, then or at any later time, to exercise any one or more of the remedies described
below. Exercise of any of such remedies will not prevent the concurrent or subsequent
exercise of any other remedy provided for in this Lease or otherwise available to Landlord at
law or in equity.
(a) Cure by Landlord. Landlord may, at Landlord’s option but without
obligation to do so, and without releasing Tenant from any obligations under this Lease,
make any payment or take any action as Landlord deems necessary or desirable to cure any
Default in such manner and to such extent as Landlord deems necessary or desirable.
Landlord may do so without additional demand on, or additional written notice to, Tenant and
without giving Tenant an additional opportunity to cure such Default. Tenant covenants and
agrees to pay Landlord, upon demand, all advances, costs and expenses of Landlord in
connection with making any such payment or taking any such action, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees, together with interest at the rate described in Section 0, from the date of
payment of any such advances, costs and expenses by Landlord.
(b) Termination of Lease and Damages. Landlord may terminate this Lease,
effective at such time as may be specified by written notice to Tenant, and demand (and, if
such demand is refused, recover) possession of the Premises from Tenant. Tenant will remain
liable to Landlord for damages in an amount equal to the Base Rent, Operating Expenses and
other Rent which would have been owing by Tenant for the balance of the Term had this Lease
not been terminated, less the net proceeds, if any, of any re-letting of the Premises by
Landlord subsequent to such termination, after deducting all Landlord’s expenses in
connection with such recovery of possession or re-letting. Landlord will be entitled to
collect and receive such damages from Tenant on the days on which the Base
Rent, Operating Expenses and other Rent would have been payable if this Lease had not
been terminated.
(c) Repossession and Re-letting. Landlord may reenter and take possession of
all or any part of the Premises, without additional demand or notice, and repossess the same
and expel Tenant and any party claiming by, through or under Tenant, and remove the effects
of both using such force for such purposes as may be necessary, without being liable for
prosecution for such action or being deemed guilty of any manner of trespass, and without
prejudice to any remedies for arrears of Rent or right to bring any proceeding for breach of
covenants or conditions. No such reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord
will be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease unless a written notice
of such intention is given to Tenant. No notice from Landlord or notice given under an
unlawful detainer or ejectment statute, or similar Laws will constitute an election by
Landlord to terminate this Lease unless such notice specifically so states. Landlord
reserves the right, following any reentry or re-letting, to exercise its right to terminate
this Lease by giving Tenant such written notice, in which event the Lease will terminate as
specified in such notice. Landlord may make such repairs, alterations or improvements as
Landlord considers appropriate to re-let the Premises. Landlord may collect and receive the
rents for such re-letting but Landlord will in no way be responsible or liable for any
failure to re-let the Premises or for any inability to collect any rent due upon such
re-letting. Regardless of Landlord’s recovery of possession of the Premises, Tenant will
continue to pay on the dates specified in this Lease, the Base Rent, Operating Expenses and
other Rent which would be payable if such repossession had not occurred, less a credit for
the net amounts, if any, actually received by Landlord through any re-letting of the
Premises.
(d) Commence Actions. Landlord may commence one or more actions to recover all
unpaid rent and/or recover possession of the Premises.
17.3 Default by Landlord. If Landlord fails to perform any of its obligations under
this Lease and does not cure such failure within 30 days after written notice (or such
longer period as is reasonably required as provided in the following sentence), Tenant may
but shall not be obligated to perform any obligation of Landlord under this Lease; and, if
Tenant so elects, all reasonable costs and expenses actually paid by Tenant in performing
such obligation, together with interest at the Default Rate, shall be reimbursed by Landlord
to Tenant on demand, accompanied by a Form W-9, original notarized lien waivers from all
contractors for the work, copies of all contracts for the work, and copies of all payments
for the work made by Tenant. In the event that Landlord fails to reimburse such reasonable
costs and expenses within thirty (30) days following Tenant’s written demand and receipt of
such documentation, Tenant shall be entitled to receive an abatement of Rent in the amount
of such costs and expenses. If the default is of a nature that cannot reasonably be cured
within 30 days, the Landlord shall have such time as is reasonably necessary to cure the
default provided that Landlord commenced its efforts to cure within the initial thirty (30)
day period and continues to diligently pursue such cure thereafter (but in no event shall
such time exceed 180 days). Any and all remedies set forth in this Lease: (i) shall be in
addition to any and all other remedies Tenant may have at law or in equity, (ii) shall be
cumulative, and (iii) may be
pursued successively or concurrently as Tenant may elect. The exercise of any remedy
by Tenant shall not be deemed an election of remedies or preclude Tenant from exercising any
other remedies in the future.
18. LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY. In no event will either party be liable to the other or any other
person for consequential, special or punitive damages, including, without limitation, lost profits.
19. NOTICES. All notices required or permitted under this Lease must be in writing and will only
be deemed properly given and received (a) when actually given and received, if delivered in person
to a party who acknowledges receipt in writing; (b) three business days after deposit with a
private courier or overnight delivery service, if such courier or service confirms delivery; or (c)
five business days after deposit in the United States mails, certified or registered mail with
return receipt requested and postage prepaid. All such notices must be transmitted by one of the
methods described above to the party to receive the notice at:
| To Landlord: | ____________________ | |||

| Attn: _______________ | ||||
| To Tenant: | 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxx | |||
| Xxxx Xxxxxxx, XX 00000 | ||||
| Attn: |
20. BROKERAGE. Tenant and Landlord each represent to the other that it has dealt with no broker in
connection with this Lease, other than Xxxxx & Xxxxx|Pacific Realty and Xxxxxxxx Partners
(collectively, “Tenant’s Broker”), and each shall hold the other harmless from and against any and
all liability, loss, damage, expense, claim, action, demand, suit or obligation arising out of or
relating to a breach of such representation. Landlord agrees to pay a commission to Tenant’s
Broker equal to three percent (3%) of the gross lease value over the Initial Term of the Lease,
payable at lease execution.
| 21. | MISCELLANEOUS. |
21.1 Landlord Assignment. Landlord may assign this Lease and all of its rights therein,
and upon assignment, Landlord shall be relieved of all liability to Tenant subsequent to
assignment. In the event Landlord sells the Premises or assigns this Lease, Tenant shall,

not bind Landlord in any manner, and no obligations will arise under this Lease until it is

21.5 No Air Rights. This Lease does not grant any easements or rights for light, air or
view. Any diminution or blockage of light, air or view by any structure or condition now or
later erected will not affect this Lease or impose any liability on Landlord.
21.6 No Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Lease will be implied by any failure
of either party to enforce any remedy upon the violation of such provision, even if such
violation is continued or repeated subsequently. No express waiver will affect any provision
other than the one specified in such waiver, and that only for the time and in the manner
specifically stated.
21.7 Confidentiality. Tenant agrees to keep the Lease terms, provisions and conditions
confidential and will not disclose them to any other person without Landlord’s prior written
consent. However, Tenant may disclose Lease terms, provisions and conditions to Tenant’s
accountants, attorneys, managing employees and others in privity with Tenant, as reasonably
necessary for Tenant’s business purposes, without such prior consent, provided that, upon
such disclosure, Tenant’s accountants, attorneys, managing employees and others in privity

of any xxxx or invoice from Landlord, such xxxx or invoice will be deemed true and correct
and Tenant may not later question the validity of such xxxx or invoice or the underlying
information or computations used to determine the amount stated.
21.10 Severability. If any provision of this Lease is declared void or unenforceable by
a final judicial or administrative order, this Lease will continue in full force and effect,

be valid and enforceable.
21.11 Jury Trial. Landlord and Tenant waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or
counterclaim brought by Landlord or Tenant against the other with respect
to any matter arising out of or in connection with this Lease, Tenant’s use and
occupancy of the Premises, or the relationship of Landlord and Tenant. However, such waiver
of jury trial will not apply to any claims for personal injury.

Tenant represent and warrant that they are empowered and duly authorized to bind Landlord or
Tenant, as the case may be, to this Lease according to its terms.

provision of this Lease nor any act of the parties will be deemed to create any relationship
