Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and then throughout the Term, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord Base Rent according to the following provisions. Base Rent during each Lease Year (or portion of a Lease Year) described in Section 1.1(k) will be payable in equal monthly installments, in advance, on or before the first day of each and every month. However, if the Rent Commencement Date is not the first day of a month or if the Term ends on other than the last day of a month, Base Rent for such month will be prorated based on the number of days in such month. The first monthly installment of Base Rent shall be payable concurrently with the execution of this Lease by Tenant.
11
4.2 | Additional Rent. |
Commencing on the thirteenth (13th) month of the Lease Term, Tenant agrees to pay Landlord, as Additional Rent, in the manner provided below for each Fiscal Year subsequent to the Base Year that contains any part of the Term, Tenant’s Share of the amount by which Expenses for such Fiscal Year exceed Expenses for the Base Year (“Additional Expenses”).
(a) Estimated Payments. Landlord will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Tenant, prior to or as soon as practicable after the beginning of each Fiscal Year subsequent to the Base Year but in no event later than four months after the beginning of each Fiscal Year, a line by line item statement reasonably detailing all actual Expenses incurred during the immediately preceding Fiscal Year, Tenant’s Share of the Additional Expenses (if any) for the preceding Fiscal Year, Landlord’s good faith estimate of the Expenses to be incurred during the ensuing Fiscal Year and Tenant’s Share of the estimated Additional Expenses (if any) for the ensuing Fiscal Year. On or before the first day of each calendar month following receipt of such notice, and during the ensuing Fiscal Year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in advance, an amount equal to (i) the difference between (A) Tenant’s Share of Landlord’s estimate of Additional Expenses for such Fiscal Year and (B) all Additional Rent paid to date by Tenant attributable to such Fiscal Year, divided by (ii) the number of full calendar months remaining in such Fiscal Year. Until such notice is given with respect to the ensuing Fiscal Year, Tenant will continue to pay on the basis of the prior Fiscal Year’s estimate until the month after the month in which such notice is given. If at any time or times, in Landlord’s good faith, reasonable judgment, Tenant’s Share of Additional Expenses for the then-current Fiscal Year will vary from Landlord’s estimate by more than five percent (5%), Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant, revise its estimate for such Fiscal Year and subsequent payments by Tenant for such Fiscal Year will be based upon the revised estimate.
(b) Annual Settlement. Landlord will deliver to Tenant its reasonably itemized statement of Tenant’s Share of Additional Expenses actually incurred for the preceding Fiscal Year within a commercially reasonable period of time after the end of the Fiscal Year (but not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days). If on the basis of such statement Tenant owes an amount that is less than the estimated payments previously made by Tenant for such Fiscal Year, Landlord will either refund such excess amount to Tenant within thirty (30) days after delivery of such statement or shall credit Tenant such excess amount against the next payment(s), if any, due from Tenant to Landlord provided that in no instance will there be any credit or refund below the Base Year amount for Expenses. If on the basis of such statement Tenant owes an amount that is more than the estimated payments previously made by Tenant for such Fiscal Year, Tenant will pay the deficiency to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such statement. If this Lease terminates on a day other than the last day of a Fiscal Year, Tenant’s Share of Additional Expenses applicable to the Fiscal Year in which termination of this Lease occurs will be prorated on the basis of the number of days within such Fiscal Year prior to the termination date.
12
(c) Final Payment. Tenant’s obligation to pay the Additional Rent and Landlord’s obligation to refund or credit any overpayment of Additional Rent provided for in this Section 4.2 which is accrued but not paid for periods prior to the expiration or early termination of the Term will survive such expiration or early termination. Prior to or as soon as practicable after the expiration or early termination of the Term, Landlord may submit an invoice to Tenant stating Landlord’s estimate of the amount by which Tenant’s Share of Additional Expenses through the date of such expiration or early termination will exceed Tenant’s estimated payments of Additional Rent for the Fiscal Year in which such expiration or termination has occurred or will occur. Tenant will pay the amount of any such excess to Landlord within thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s invoice and Landlord will promptly refund any overpayment to Tenant, provided that in no instance will there be any refund below the Base Year amount for Expenses.
(d) Gross-Up of Expenses and Taxes. For each Fiscal Year during the Term in which the Building is less than one hundred percent (100%) occupied, the amount by which those Expenses that vary with occupancy (e.g., cleaning costs and utilities) would have increased had the Building been one hundred percent (100%) leased and occupied and operational and had all Building services been provided to all tenants will be reasonably determined and the amount of such increase will be included in Expenses for such Fiscal Year (including the Base Year). Management fees shall not be grossed up. Landlord shall provide to Tenant the tax assessments and bills for the Project within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s request for the same.
(e) Challenge Regarding Taxes; Proposition 8 Protests. Landlord may, if Landlord elects, challenge with the appropriate governmental authority the amount of Taxes (or related valuation) related to the Land and Building, including Proposition 8 assessment reviews, challenges and protests. In addition, Landlord shall, upon written request by Tenant, use commercially reasonable diligence to challenge Taxes (or related valuation), including Proposition 8 assessment reviews, challenges and protests. As provided in item (viii) of the definition of Expenses in Section 1.2, reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in attempting to reduce or avoid an increase in Taxes shall be included in Expenses. A reduction in Taxes obtained by Landlord, if any, shall not affect the Taxes included in Expenses for the Base Year.
4.3 | Other Taxes. |
Tenant will reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days of Tenant’s receipt of a written demand from Landlord for any and all of the following taxes payable by Landlord (other than income, franchise or similar taxes and taxes included in Taxes) whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of Landlord and Tenant: (a) upon, measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located in the Premises; (b) upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or
13
occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Premises; and (c) upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.4 | Terms of Payment. |
All Base Rent, Additional Rent and other Rent will be paid to Landlord in lawful money of the United States of America, at Landlord’s Address or to such other person or at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, without notice or demand and without right of deduction, abatement or setoff, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease.
4.5 | Late Charge and Interest on Late Payments. |
All amounts payable under this Lease by Tenant to Landlord, if not paid within five (5) days of the date when due if concerning regular payments of Base Rent and Additional Rent and otherwise five days after receipt of notice from Landlord that payment is past due, will (a) incur a late charge equal to the greater of five percent (5%) of the amount past due or Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($500.00), and (b) bear interest from the due date until paid at the lesser of the highest interest rate permitted by applicable law or two percent (2%) in excess of the then-current Prime Rate. Provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to receive one (1) past due notice from Landlord during any consecutive twelve (12) month period of the Term, or any extension thereof, before any late charge shall be incurred by Tenant hereunder.
4.6 | Right to Accept Payments. |
No receipt by Landlord of an amount less than Tenant’s full amount due will be deemed to be other than payment “on account”, nor will any endorsement or statement on any check or any accompanying letter effect or evidence an accord and satisfaction. Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the balance or pursue any right of Landlord. No payments by Tenant to Landlord after the expiration or other termination of the Term, or after the giving of any notice (other than a demand for payment of money) by Landlord to Tenant, will reinstate, continue or extend the Term or make ineffective any notice given to Tenant prior to such payment. After notice or commencement of a suit, or after final judgment granting Landlord possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any sums of Rent due under this Lease, and such receipt will not void any notice or in any manner affect any pending suit or any judgment obtained.
4.7 | Tenant’s Right To Audit. |
(a) Landlord shall maintain complete and accurate books and records detailing all Expenses (including Taxes) for not less than the three (3) Fiscal Years preceding the then current Fiscal Year. Landlord may keep the books and records at the Building or at Landlord’s regional office. Upon thirty (30) days written notice, Tenant
14
and/or its representatives shall have the right, at Tenant’s expense, to examine, copy, and audit, during normal business hours at the place where Landlord maintains such records, Landlord’s books and records pertaining to the Expenses for the then immediately preceding Fiscal Year (including the Base Year, but with respect to the Base Year, Tenant shall only have one (1) right to audit the same) to enable Tenant to verify the accuracy thereof. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in any such examination. If it is determined that the Expenses reported by Landlord are in excess of one hundred five (105%) percent of the actual amount of Expenses with respect to any Fiscal Year, then if (a) Landlord fails to dispute such finding, or (b) Landlord agrees with such finding, or (c) following a dispute of Tenant’s audit by Landlord the calculation selected by the arbitrator, if submitted to arbitration (as provided below) or the reconciled audits, still evidence that Tenant was overcharged by more than five percent (5%) as set forth above, then Tenant’s reasonable actual out-of-pocket, third party costs of said audit shall be payable by Landlord on demand. If it is determined, as set forth in the preceding sentence that Tenant was not overcharged by more than five percent (5%), then Landlord’s reasonable actual out-of-pocket, third party costs of monitoring and responding to said audit shall be payable by Tenant on demand. Any overpayment by Tenant shall be credited to Tenant and any undercharge shall be paid by Tenant within thirty (30) days. Failure by Tenant to contest or dispute the allocation of Additional Rent (i) within ninety (90) days following Landlord’s delivery of the Expense reconciliation statement pursuant to Section 4.2 for a particular Fiscal Year, or (ii) with respect to the final Fiscal Year during the Term, within ninety (90) days following the delivery of the Expense reconciliation statement for the final Fiscal Year, (A) is deemed a waiver of Tenant’s audit or dispute right and any right to contest the Additional Rent charges (undercharges or overcharges) with respect to the Fiscal Year in question (but not with respect to any other Fiscal Year); and (B) is deemed acceptance of the Additional Rent charges as submitted to and reviewed by Tenant for such Fiscal Year. Subject to the preceding sentence, the foregoing provisions shall survive termination or expiration of the Lease. In the event Tenant exercises its audit rights as provided above and Landlord and Tenant cannot reconcile their respective calculations of Expenses within forty-five (45) days following the delivery by Tenant to Landlord of the results of Tenant’s audit, either Landlord or Tenant can cause the calculation of Expenses to be submitted to arbitration by delivering written notice to the other of such election. In such event, Landlord and Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days following the election by either party to submit the calculation to arbitration, mutually agree upon a third party arbitrator satisfactory to both parties to render a final determination of the Expenses. In the event Landlord and Tenant are unable to mutually agree upon an arbitrator within such period, the parties shall then apply to the American Arbitration Association or any successor thereto for the designation of an arbitrator to render a final determination of the Expenses. In either event the arbitrator shall (1) be a certified public accountant licensed in the State of California, (2) have at least ten (10) years experience in the field of commercial office operations, (3) not have represented either Landlord or Tenant during the preceding (5) years (other than with respect to other audits conducted by either party for the Project), and (4) be generally experienced and competent in determining and calculating the proper allocation of operating expenses among tenants in office buildings similar to the Building. The arbitrator shall, within thirty (30) days following his or her appointment, determine which
15
of (x) the Landlord’s calculation of Expenses for the year in question, as submitted to the Tenant, or (y) the Tenant’s calculation of Expenses for the applicable year, as determined by its audit, is closer to the arbitrator’s determination of Expenses allocable to the Premises for the applicable year, and whichever of the Landlord’s calculation or the Tenant’s calculation is determined by the arbitrator to be closest to the arbitrator’s determination shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant. The party who does not prevail in such arbitration shall be responsible for all arbitration fees and the reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys fees and costs of the prevailing party incurred in connection with such arbitration.
5. CONDITION OF PREMISES.
Landlord shall within a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from Tenant, repair, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense (which shall not be included in Expenses), any latent defects in the Building or the Premises discovered during the Term.

Tenant will not cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in or about the Premises and will keep the Premises free of debris, and anything of a dangerous, noxious, toxic or offensive nature or which could create a fire hazard or undue vibration, heat or noise. If any item of equipment, building material or other property brought into the Building by Tenant or on Tenant’s request causes a dangerous, noxious, toxic or offensive effect (including an environmental effect) and in Landlord’s reasonable opinion such effect will not be permanent but will only be temporary and is able to be eliminated, then Tenant will not be required to remove such item, provided that Tenant promptly and diligently causes such effect to be eliminated, pays for all costs of elimination and indemnifies Landlord against all liabilities arising from such effect.

In the event Landlord fails to so notify Tenant within such ten (10) day period, Landlord shall be deemed to have given its consent to the proposed Alterations. If requested by Tenant in writing at the time Tenant requests Landlord’s approval for an Alteration, Landlord shall notify Tenant at the time Landlord responds to Tenant’s request whether Landlord will require Tenant to remove the proposed Alterations at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term. In addition, in connection with any proposed Alterations as to which Landlord’s consent is not required hereunder, Landlord shall, if Tenant so requests, notify Tenant in writing, within ten (10) days after Tenant’s request (so long as such request contains a reasonable description of such Alterations), whether Landlord will require Tenant to remove all or part of the proposed Alterations at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term.
(d) For any alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord at least five (5) days written notice before any work is commenced, which notice shall state the date work shall commence. Tenant will maintain, or will cause the persons performing any such work to maintain, worker’s compensation insurance and public liability and property damage insurance (with Landlord named as an additional insured), in amounts, with companies and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, which insurance will remain in effect during the entire period in which the work will be carried out. If requested by Landlord, Tenant will deliver to Landlord proof of all such insurance. Tenant will promptly pay, when due, the cost of all such work and, upon completion, Tenant will deliver to Landlord, to the extent not previously received by Landlord, evidence of payment for labor, services or materials. Tenant will also pay any increases in fire or casualty insurance premiums for the Building attributable to such Alterations and the cost of any modifications to the Building outside the Premises that are required to be made in order to make the Alterations to the Premises. Tenant, at its expense, will have submitted to Landlord reproducible as-built plans of any such Alterations upon its completion.
9.2 | Alterations and Entry by Landlord. |
(a) Landlord may from time to time make repairs, changes, additions and improvements to the Building, Common Areas and Building systems, provided that no change, addition or improvement made by Landlord will materially impair Tenant’s use of, or access to the Premises. For such purposes, Landlord may enter the Premises upon not less than one (1) days’ prior written notice to Tenant (except in cases of actual or reasonably suspected emergency, in which case no prior notice will be required) without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage incurred as a result of such entry, provided that
26
in doing so Landlord will not disturb or interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises and operation of its business any more than is reasonably necessary under the circumstances and will repair any damage to the Premises caused by such entry and Landlord shall be responsible for any loss or damage due to Landlord’s active negligence or willful misconduct. Entry by Landlord to pursue repair, maintenance, or correction shall not be deemed an actual or constructive eviction and shall not entitle Tenant to any abatement of reduction in Rent.
(b) Landlord and its agents, employees and contractors shall also have the right to enter the Premises during Tenant’s normal business hours upon not less than twenty four (24) hours prior notice, without undue interference with the conduct of Tenant’s business therein, to inspect and examine the Premises and to exhibit the Premises to prospective purchasers or prospective tenants of the Project, and Landlord shall allow a representative of Tenant to accompany Landlord, its agents, employees and/or contractors if so requested by Tenant.
9.3 | Project Management; No Review, Supervisory, Profit or Overhead Charges. |
Subject to Landlord approval thereof, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, Tenant may engage its own project managers, architects, engineers, consultants, general contractors and subcontractors in connection with any repairs or any improvements, alterations, additions, renovations or refurbishments to be performed by Tenant hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, no review fees of Landlord or any third party relating to the design or performance of any such repairs, improvements, alterations, additions, renovations or refurbishments shall be charged to Tenant and no Landlord profit, overhead, or supervision fee, or general conditions costs shall be charged to Tenant with respect to any repairs or any improvements, alterations, additions, renovations or refurbishments, whether such work shall be undertaken by Landlord (or Landlord’s contractor) or Tenant (or Tenant’s contractor).
10. LIENS.
Tenant agrees to pay before delinquency all costs for work, services or materials furnished to Tenant for the Premises, the nonpayment of which could result in any lien against the Land or Building. Tenant will keep title to the Land and Building free and clear of any such lien. Tenant will immediately notify Landlord of the filing of any such lien or any pending claims or proceedings relating to any such lien and will indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by Landlord as a result of such lien, claims and proceedings. In case any such lien attaches, Tenant agrees to cause it to be immediately released and removed of record (failing which Landlord may do so at Tenant’s sole expense), unless Tenant has a good faith dispute as to such lien in which case Tenant may contest such lien by appropriate proceedings so long as Tenant deposits a lien release bond (if applicable) drawn on a bondsman acceptable to Landlord or deposits with Landlord a bond or other security in an amount reasonably acceptable to
27
Landlord which may be used by Landlord to release such lien. Upon final determination of any permitted contest, Tenant will immediately pay any judgment rendered and cause the lien to be released.
11. INSURANCE.
11.1 | Landlord’s Insurance. |
During the Term, Landlord will provide and keep in force the following insurance:
(a) commercial general liability insurance relating to Landlord’s operation of the Building, for personal and bodily injury and death, and damage to others’ property; and
(b) all risk or fire insurance (including standard extended coverage endorsement perils, leakage from fire protective devices and other water damage, and other commercial reasonable coverage customarily carried by landlords of similar class buildings as Landlord may elect to cover) relating to the Land and Building (but excluding Tenant’s leasehold improvements, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, personal property, documents, files, inventory, stock-in-trade and work products), on a full replacement cost basis.
(c) Insurance effected by Landlord under this Section 11.1 will be in amounts which Landlord from time to time reasonably determines sufficient or any Building mortgagee requires except that the coverage under Section 11.1(b) shall provide full replacement cost coverage; (ii) will be subject to such deductibles and exclusions as Landlord reasonably determines; (iii) will, in the case of insurance under Sections 11.1(b), permit the release of Tenant from certain liability under Section 13.1; and (iv) will otherwise be on such terms and conditions as Landlord from time to time reasonably determines sufficient.
11.2 | Tenant’s Insurance. |
During the Term, Tenant will provide and keep in force the following insurance:
(a) commercial general liability insurance relating to Tenant’s business (carried on in or from the Premises) and Tenant’s use and occupancy, for personal and bodily injury and death, and damage to others’ property, with limits of not less than the Liability Insurance Amount for any one accident or occurrence;
(b) all risk or fire insurance (including standard extended endorsement perils, leakage from fire protective devices and other water damage, but excluding coverage for earthquake or earth movement) relating to Tenant’s leasehold improvements, trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, documents, files, work products, inventory, stock-intrade in the Premises on a full replacement cost basis;
28
(c) if any boiler or machinery is operated in the Premises, boiler and machinery insurance; and
(d) workers compensation insurance as required by law.
Landlord and the holder of any Encumbrance will be named as an additional insureds in the policy described in Section 11.2(a), which will include cross liability and severability of interests clauses and will be on an “occurrence” (and not a “claims made”) form. Tenant will file with Landlord, on or before the Rent Commencement Date and at least ten (10) days before the expiration date of expiring policies, such copies of either current policies, an insurance binder (countersigned by the insurer), evidence of insurance, a binding certificate or other proofs, as may be reasonably required to establish Tenant’s insurance coverage in effect from time to time and payment of premiums. If Tenant fails to insure or pay premiums, or to file satisfactory proof as required, Landlord may, upon a minimum of two business days notice, effect such insurance and recover from Tenant on demand any premiums paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may carry any insurance required to be carried by Tenant under this Lease by Tenant in whole or in part under an umbrella policy or policies, or under a blanket policy or policies, covering other properties.
12. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
12.1 | Damage Notice; Repair Estimate. |
If the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or other casualty, Landlord or Tenant, whichever learns of such damage first, will promptly notify the other party of such damage. Landlord will, promptly after learning of such damage, notify Tenant in writing (the “Repair Estimate”) of the estimated time and cost necessary to repair or restore such damage, as estimated by a licensed architect, engineer or contractor selected by Landlord and approved by Tenant.
12.2 | Termination Options. |
(a) Tenant’s Termination Options. If (i) the Repair Estimate states that damage to the Building (measured by the estimated cost of repair or restoration) is fifty percent (50%) or more of the Building’s then replacement cost above the foundation as indicated in the Repair Estimate, (ii) the Repair Estimate states that the repair or restoration of all such damage to the Building cannot be completed, through the use of commercially reasonable diligence in the preparation of plans, obtaining of permits and construction, within eighteen (18) months from the date of such damage, (iii) more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the Rentable Square Feet then included in the Premises is rendered Untenantable and any material portion of the Premises will likely remain Untenantable for more than nine (9) months after the date of the casualty, or (iv) the Repair Estimate states that repair or restoration of all such damage that was caused to the Premises or to any other portion of the Building necessary for Tenant’s occupancy cannot
29
be completed within ninety (90) days from the date of such damage and less than twelve (12) months are then remaining in the Term, then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease.
(b) Landlord’s Termination Options. If (i) the Repair Estimate states that damage to the Building (measured by the estimated cost of repair or restoration) is fifty percent (50%) or more of the Building’s then replacement cost above the foundation as indicated in the Repair Estimate, or (ii) the Repair Estimate states that the repair or restoration of all such damage to the Building cannot be completed, through the use of commercially reasonable diligence in the preparation of plans, obtaining of permits and construction, within eighteen (18) months from the date of such damage, or (iii) the Repair Estimate states that repair or restoration of all such damage that was caused to the Premises or to any other portion of the Building necessary for Tenant’s occupancy cannot be completed within ninety (90) days from the date of such damage and less than twelve (12) months are then remaining in the Term and Tenant fails to exercise its Extension Option within fifteen (15) days after Landlord delivers the Repair Estimate, then Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall only be able to terminate this Lease if Landlord also terminates the leases of all other tenants in the Building which are similarly affected by such casualty and as to which Landlord has the right to terminate such leases.
(c) Exercise of Options. Any option to terminate granted above must be exercised by written notice to the other party given within fifteen (15) days after Landlord delivers to Tenant the Repair Estimate. If either party exercises its option to terminate this Lease, the Term will expire and this Lease will terminate thirty (30) days after notice of termination is delivered; provided, however, that notwithstanding the delivery of any such termination notice, in order to provide an orderly transition to another building, Tenant may elect to continue this Lease as to any portion of the Premises that remains tenantable, for a period of up to four (4) months on a month to month basis, in which event the terms of this Lease shall continue to apply as to any space continuing to be so occupied, including the payment of Base Rent and Additional Rent with respect to such space and parking rights on the same basis as originally applicable to such portion of the Premises. 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.
12.3 | Repair Obligations. |
If the Premises or the Building are damaged by fire or other casualty and neither party (a) has the right to terminate this Lease according to Section 12.2, or (b) terminates this Lease according to Section 12.2, then Landlord will repair and restore such damage with reasonable promptness, subject to delays for insurance adjustments and delays caused by Force Majeure or delays caused by Tenant. Except as set forth below, Landlord will have no liability to Tenant and Tenant will not be entitled to terminate this Lease if such repairs and restoration are completed within the estimated time period indicated in the Repair Estimate or within thirty (30) days thereafter; however, if the repairs or restoration
30
are not completed within thirty (30) days following the end of the estimated time period (subject to Force Majeure and delays caused by Tenant), Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease. 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 11.2.
12.4 | Rent Abatement. |
If any fire or casualty damage renders any portion of the Premises Untenantable, 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 12.3. 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; provided, however, that to the extent Tenant remains in possession of a portion of the Premises, Landlord shall take all reasonable steps to minimize unreasonable disruption to Tenant’s business and use of such portion of the Premises during the period of repair, including, to the extent the same can be done without Landlord incurring material additional costs for overtime labor, performing all noisy work (such as hammering, slab work, nail guns and the like) outside of Building Business Hours.
13. WAIVERS AND INDEMNITIES.
As used in this Section 13, a party’s “Affiliates” means each Affiliate of such party and its and their directors, officers, shareholders, agents, servants, employees and, in Tenant’s case, permitted subtenants.
13.1 | Landlord’s Waivers. |
Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Tenant and its Affiliates will not be liable or in any way responsible to Landlord for, and Landlord waives all claims against Tenant and its Affiliates to the extent any loss, injury or damage is insured or required to be insured by Landlord under Section 11.1(b), EXCLUDING ANY DEDUCTIBLE THEREUNDER (NOT TO EXCEED $5,000) REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LOSS, INJURY OR DAMAGE IS ATTRIBUTABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART TO THE NEGLIGENCE, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF TENANT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES. Landlord’s waivers under this Section 13.1 will survive the expiration or early termination of the Term.
13.2 | Tenant’s Waivers. |
Except to the extent caused by the willful or active negligent act or omission or breach of this Lease by Landlord or anyone for whom Landlord is legally responsible, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord, its Affiliates and the
31
holder of any Encumbrance will not be liable or in any way responsible for, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord, its Affiliates and the holder of any Encumbrance for any loss, injury or damage suffered by Tenant or others relating to (a) loss or theft of, or damage to, property of Tenant or others; (b) injury or damage to persons or property from any cause, including, without limitation, fire, explosion, falling plaster, escaping steam or gas, electricity, water, rain or snow, or leaks from any part of the Building or from any pipes, appliances or plumbing, or from dampness; or (c) damage caused by other tenants, occupants or persons in the Premises or other premises in the Building, or caused by the public or by construction of any private or public work.
In addition and without limiting the foregoing, Landlord, its Affiliates and the holder of any Encumbrance will not be liable or in any way responsible to Tenant for, and Tenant waives all claims against Landlord, its Affiliates and the holder of any Encumbrance to the extent any loss, injury or damage is insured or required to be insured by Tenant under Sections 11.2(b) or (c), EXCLUDING ANY DEDUCTIBLE THEREUNDER (NOT TO EXCEED $10,000), REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LOSS, INJURY OR DAMAGE IS ATTRIBUTABLE IN WHOLE OR IN PART TO THE NEGLIGENCE, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF LANDLORD OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES. Tenant’s waivers under this Section 13.2 will survive the expiration or early termination of the Term.
13.3 | Landlord’s Indemnity. |
Subject to Section 7.5 and 13.2 and except to the extent caused by the willful or active negligent act or omission or breach of this Lease by Tenant or anyone for whom Tenant is legally responsible, Landlord will indemnify, defend and hold Tenant harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, claims, demand, damages or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) for any personal injury or property damage to persons other than Landlord or Tenant due to or arising out of any willful or active negligent act or omission of Landlord or anyone for whom Landlord is legally responsible. Landlord’s obligations under this Section 13.3 will survive the expiration or early termination of the Term.
13.4 | Tenant’s Indemnity. |

Tenant’s obligations under this Section 13.4 will survive the expiration or early termination of the Term.
32
13.5 | Waiver of Subrogation. |
Each party shall require its insurers to include in the insurance policies required under Section 11.1(b) and Sections 11.2(b) and (c) a waiver of subrogation clause in favor of the other party and its Affiliates (providing that each party’s waivers of rights of recovery against the other shall not impair the effectiveness of such policy or the insured’s ability to recover thereunder).
14. CONDEMNATION.
14.1 | Full Taking. |
If all or substantially all of the Building, Parking Facilities or 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 the earlier of when the condemning authority takes physical possession of or title to the Building or Premises.
14.2 | Partial Taking. |
(a) Landlord’s Termination of Lease. If ten percent (10%) or more, but less than all, of the Building is thus taken or sold, and if after such partial taking, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, alteration or reconstruction is not economically feasible, then Landlord (whether or not the Premises are affected) may terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Tenant within 60 days after the taking.
(b) Tenant’s Termination. If over twenty percent (20%) of the Premises or Parking Facilities is taken or sold, or rendered unusable for its Use, and Landlord is unable to provide Tenant with comparable replacement premises in the Building or parking facilities, as applicable, Tenant may terminate this Lease. Such termination by Tenant must be exercised by written notice to Landlord given not later than 60 days after Tenant is notified of the taking.
(c) Effective Date of Termination. Termination by Landlord or Tenant will be effective as of the date when physical possession of the applicable portion of the Building or Premises is taken by condemning authority.
(d) Election to Continue Lease. If neither Landlord nor Tenant elects 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 or rendered unusable for its Use. In no event shall the loss of any portion of the Land (other than the portion of the Land on which the Premises are physically located) result in a reduction of Rent. If this Lease is not terminated upon a partial taking of the Building or Premises, Landlord will, at Landlord’s sole expense, promptly restore and reconstruct the Building and Premises to substantially their former condition to the extent the same is feasible; however, Landlord will not be required to
33
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 Building or Premises so taken.
14.3 | Awards. |
As between the parties to this Lease, Landlord will be entitled to receive, and Tenant assigns to Landlord, all of the compensation awarded upon taking of any part or all of the Building or Premises, including any award for the value of the unexpired Term. However, Tenant may assert a claim in a separate proceeding against the condemning authority for any damages resulting from the taking of Tenant’s trade fixtures or personal property, or for moving expenses, business relocation expenses or damages to Tenant’s business incurred as a result of such condemnation. Tenant shall not be entitled to any “bonus value” as Landlord shall be the only party entitled to an award that would otherwise cover “bonus value”.
15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
15.1 | General. |
Except as set forth in this Section 15, without Landlord’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Tenant will not assign all or any of its interest under this Lease, or sublet all or any part of the Premises to any parties other than Tenant and its Affiliates nor shall Tenant permit the Premises to be used by anyone other than Tenant, it Affiliates, and their respective employees and invitees. Landlord shall have fourteen (14) days following receipt from Tenant of written notice of its intent to assign this Lease or sublease all or a portion of the Premises, including all relevant financial information with respect to the proposed assignee or subtenant reasonably necessary for Landlord to make such decision, to notify Tenant in writing that it does not consent to a prospective assignee or sublessee. Any such notice shall provide in reasonable detail the reasons for Landlord’s non-consent. The fact that a prospective assignee or sublessee is an existing tenant in the Building or the complex of which it is a part or a prospect with whom Landlord is or may be negotiating to lease space in the Building or the complex of which it is a part shall not be a reasonable basis upon which Landlord may withhold its consent. Failure to exercise its election to not consent within such fourteen (14) day period shall be deemed consent by Landlord to the proposed assignee or sublessee. Landlord shall be reimbursed Landlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket, third party costs and reasonable attorney fees incurred in reviewing any requested assignment or subleasing.
15.2 | Form Of Transfer. |
If Landlord consents to a proposed assignment or sublease, Landlord’s consent will not be effective unless and until Tenant delivers to Landlord an original duly executed assignment or sublease, as the case may be, that provides, in the case of a sublease, that the subtenant will comply with all applicable terms and conditions of this Lease as they
34
apply to the space subleased, and, in the case of an assignment, an assumption by the assignee of all obligations of Tenant under this Lease arising from and after the date of such assignment.
15.3 | Payments To Landlord. |
If Tenant assigns this Lease or subleases all or a portion of the Premises other than an assignment or subletting pursuant to Section 15.4, then Landlord will be entitled to receive from Tenant fifty percent (50%) of the amount by which (a) the rent (and other consideration) received by Tenant from such transferee exceeds (b) the sum of the Rent then due for the same period of time under this Lease payable by Tenant to Landlord (and if a sublease, allocable to the subleased space) plus the amortized portion of any costs and expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with such transfer (including tenant improvement allowances, brokerage commissions, attorneys fees and other customary and reasonable costs) amortized on a straight line basis over the term of such transfer; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to recoup one hundred percent (100%) of its actual out of pocket tenant improvement allowances as well as it’s customary and reasonable brokerage commissions, attorneys fees and other costs before paying Landlord any portion of such excess if the rent (and other consideration) received by Tenant from such transferee is paid in a lump sum. Landlord’s percentage of such excess will be payable to Landlord if and within fifteen (15) days after Tenant is paid the same (whether in monthly installments, in a lump sum, or otherwise).
15.4 | Permitted Transfers. |
Tenant may, without obtaining Landlord’s consent, assign this Lease or sublease all or any part of the Premises to (i) any Affiliate, (ii) any entity resulting from the merger or consolidation, liquidation or reorganization of Tenant so long as all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant located at the Premises were transferred to the resulting entity, or (iii) any entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant located at the Premises as part of the purchase of the business that is being conducted on or from the Premises; provided that in all such cases such transferee assumes in full the obligations of Tenant under the Lease arising from and after the effective date of the assignment or sublease (but, in the case of a sublease, only as to the portion of the Premises subleased to such subtenant). In any event described in this Section 15.4, Tenant shall have no obligation to share with Landlord any rent or other consideration received by Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease. Tenant shall promptly provide notice to Landlord of any assignment or sublease of the Premises which does not require Landlord’s consent pursuant to this Section 15.4. Tenant shall use good faith efforts to provide such notice prior to date of such transfer, but shall have no liability for failing to do so.
15.5 | Effect Of Transfers. |
Except as provided in Section 15.5 below, no assignment or subletting will release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease unless Landlord agrees to the contrary
35
in writing. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any person other than Tenant will not be deemed a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Section 15. Consent to one assignment or subletting will not be deemed a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.
15.6 | Restrictions on Assignment and Subletting. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, pursuant to the terms of a contractual arrangement between Landlord and BMC Software, Inc. (“BMC”), Landlord shall have not right to consent to any assignment or subletting by Tenant to the companies listed on Exhibit H attached hereto and any additional persons or entities that BMC designates from time to time as a direct competitor of BMC in writing to Landlord (individually, an “Excluded Company” and collectively, the “Excluded Companies”) and Tenant shall not assign or sublease the Premises (or any portion thereof) to an Excluded Company(ies) pursuant to Section 15.4 above. In no event shall the total number of Excluded Companies exceed ten (10). Landlord shall deliver copies of any such written notice received by Landlord from BMC to Tenant (together with any documentation delivered by BMC regarding the addition of direct competitors). Tenant acknowledges that Landlord shall not be deemed to be acting unreasonably should it reject any proposed assignment or subletting because of this contractual arrangement with BMC and that Landlord shall not be subject to any liability whatsoever for so rejecting an assignment or sublease.
16. PERSONAL PROPERTY.
16.1 | Installation And Removal. |
Tenant may install in the Premises its personal property (including Tenant’s usual trade fixtures), provided that no such installation will damage or materially interfere with the mechanical, plumbing or electrical systems or the structure of the Building, and provided further that if such installation would require any Alterations to the Premises, such installation will be subject to Section 9.1. 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 Alterations to the Premises permitted under Section 9.1, and (b) will be removed by Tenant at the end of the Term according to Section 3.3. Tenant will promptly repair at its expense any damage to the Building resulting from such installation or removal.
16.2 | 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 Taxes. Tenant agrees that all personal property of whatever kind, including, without limitation, inventory and/or
36
goods stored at or about the Premises, Tenant’s trade fixtures, and Tenant’s interest in tenant improvements which may be at any time located in, on or about the Premises or the Building, whether owned by Tenant or third parties, shall be at the sole risk or at the risk of those claiming through Tenant, and that Landlord shall not be liable for any damage to or loss of such property except for loss or damage arising from or caused by the active negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or any of Landlord’s officers, employees, agents, or authorized representatives each acting within the scope of their authority.
16.3 | Landlord’s Lien. |
Landlord waives any and all liens, whether statutory or at common law, which it may have upon any of the goods, wares, equipment, fixtures, furniture, improvements or personal property of Tenant located within or about the Premises.
17. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES.
Tenant agrees that at any time and from time to time (but on not less than ten (10) business days prior request by Landlord), Tenant will execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a certificate indicating any or all of the following: (a) the Rent Commencement Date and Expiration Date; (b) that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of each modification); (c) the date, if any, through which Base Rent, Additional Rent and any other Rent payable have been paid; (d) that no default by Landlord, to the best of Tenant’s knowledge, or by Tenant exists which has not been cured, except as to defaults stated in such certificate; (f) provided such events have occurred, that Tenant has accepted the Premises and that all improvements required to be made to the Premises by Landlord have been completed according to this Lease; (g) that, except as specifically stated in such certificate, Tenant, and only Tenant (or its Affiliates so identified in the certificate), currently occupies the Premises; and (h) such other matters as may be reasonably requested by Landlord. Any such certificate may be relied upon by the Landlord, its Affiliates, any prospective purchaser or present or prospective mortgagee, deed of trust beneficiary or ground lessor of all or a portion of the Building and/or Land.
18. TRANSFER OF LANDLORD’S INTEREST.
18.1 | Sale, Conveyance And Assignment. |
Nothing in this Lease will restrict Landlord’s right to sell, convey, assign or otherwise transfer the Building or Landlord’s interest under this Lease.
18.2 | Effect Of Sale, Conveyance Or Assignment. |
A sale, conveyance or assignment of the Building will automatically release Landlord from liability under this Lease from and after the effective date of the transfer, except for
37
any liability relating to or arising from the period prior to such effective date, and Tenant will look solely to Landlord’s transferee for performance of Landlord’s obligations relating to the period after such effective date. This Lease will not be affected by any such sale, conveyance or assignment and Tenant will attorn to Landlord’s transferee.
18.3 | Subordination And Nondisturbance. |
Subject to receipt by Tenant of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in either: (i) the form reasonably acceptable to Landlord’s lender and Tenant or (ii) the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust to secure debt (an “Encumbrance”) encumbering the Building in the future, and to any renewal, modification, supplement, consolidation and replacement thereto or thereof. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from any future holder of a mortgage covering the Project a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, Tenant and the holder of the mortgage. Landlord represents and warrants that as of the date hereof the Project is not currently encumbered.
19. RULES AND REGULATIONS.
Tenant agrees to faithfully observe and comply with the Rules and Regulations (“Rules and Regulations”) set forth in Exhibit D and with all reasonable modifications and additions to such Rules and Regulations (which will be applicable to all Building tenants) from time to time adopted by Landlord and of which Tenant is notified in writing. No such modification or addition will contradict or abrogate any right expressly granted to Tenant under this Lease or impose additional costs on Tenant. Landlord’s enforcement of the Rules and Regulations will be uniform and nondiscriminatory, but Landlord will not be responsible to Tenant for failure of any person to comply with the Rules and Regulations.
20. TENANT’S DEFAULT AND LANDLORD’S REMEDIES.
20.1 | Tenant’s Default. |
The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall be a material default (“Default”) and breach of this Lease by Tenant:
(a) Tenant fails to pay Base Rent or any other payment due under this Lease after the same shall be due and payable, and such failure continues for a period of three (3) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant (but with respect to the first installment of Additional Rent after Landlord has changed the amount of the estimated payment, Tenant shall be provided a thirty (30) day notice rather than a three (3) day notice);
(b) Tenant fails to perform or observe any other term, condition, covenant, or obligation required to be performed or observed by it under this Lease for a period of
38
thirty (30) days (or such shorter time provided herein) after notice thereof from Landlord; provided, however, that if the term, condition, covenant, or obligation to be performed by Tenant is of such nature that the same cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days and if Tenant commences such performance within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently undertakes to complete the same, then such failure shall not be a default hereunder if it is cured with reasonable diligence and in no event later than ninety (90) days following Landlord’s notice.
(c) A trustee, disbursing agent, or receiver is appointed to take possession of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in, on or about the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease (and Tenant does not regain possession within sixty (60) days after such appointment); or Tenant makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets in, on or about the Premises or Tenant’s interest in this Lease are attached or levied upon under execution (and Tenant does not discharge the same within sixty (60) days thereafter).
(d) A petition in bankruptcy, insolvency, or for reorganization or arrangement is filed by or against Tenant pursuant to any federal or state statute, and, with respect to any such petition filed against it, Tenant fails to secure a stay or discharge thereof within sixty (60) days after the filing of the same.
(e) Any assignment, subletting, or other transfer for which the prior written consent of the Landlord has not been obtained, except for Permitted Transfers.
(f) Tenant’s admission in writing of its inability to pay its debts as they mature.
(g) Suspension of Tenant’s right to conduct its business, caused by the order, judgment, decree, decision, or other act of any court or government agency.
(h) Tenant’s failure to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord, within ten (10) business days following written notice from Landlord that Tenant has failed to deliver any documents required to effectuate an attornment, a subordination, or to make this Lease or any option granted herein prior to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, or ground lease, or any estoppel certificate, as the case may be within the time period specified in this Lease therefore.
(i) Tenant’s vacating of the Premises coupled with a Default by Tenant under Section 20.1(a) after the expiration of the applicable cure periods set forth therein (but vacating alone shall not be a Default).
If the Lease is assigned, and if the assignor provides a mailing address to Landlord for purposes of notices hereunder, then Landlord shall mail to such assignor any notice to be given to Tenant under this Section 20.1; however, the fact that any such prior Tenant does not actually receive any such notice shall not restrict Landlord’s right to exercise its remedies hereunder. Such notice to an assignor shall not be required if such assignor is
39
not liable for the default set forth in the notice. No time to cure shall be added as a result of any such mailing. Any notice required by the terms of this Lease in connection with any such default shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under Sections 1161, et seq., of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
20.2 | Landlord’s Remedies. |
Upon the occurrence of any event of Default, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies, in addition to those allowed by law or in equity, any one or more of which may be exercised or not exercised without precluding the Landlord from exercising any other remedy provided in this Lease or otherwise allowed by law or in equity:
(a) Landlord may terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises. If Tenant has abandoned and vacated the Premises, the mere entry onto the Premises by Landlord in order to perform acts of maintenance, cure defaults, preserve the Premises, or attempt to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver in order to protect the Landlord’s interest under this Lease, shall not be deemed a termination of Tenant’s right to possession or a termination of this Lease unless Landlord has notified Tenant in writing that this Lease is terminated. If Landlord terminates this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises pursuant to this Subsection 20.2(a), then Landlord may recover from Tenant any and all damages set forth in California Civil Code Section 1951.2, or any successor statute, and including without limitation the following:
(i) the worth at the time of the award of unpaid rent, including, without limitation, Tenant’s Share of Additional Expenses, which had been earned at the time of termination; plus
(ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Term after the time of the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; plus
(iv) the costs of repairs, cleanup, refurbishing, removal, and storage or disposal of Tenant’s personal property, equipment, fixtures, and anything else that Tenant is required under this Lease to remove but does not remove (including those alterations which Tenant is required to remove pursuant to an election by Landlord, and which Landlord actually removes, whether or not notice to remove shall be delivered to Tenant) to the extent necessary to compensate Landlord for the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s Default; plus
(v) any costs for alterations, additions, and renovations incurred by Landlord in regaining possession of and reletting (or attempting to relet) the Premises to the extent necessary to compensate Landlord for the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s Default; plus
40
(vi) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s Default.
However the foregoing damages expressly exclude any lost profits and expressly exclude any consequential damages arising from a Default by Tenant.
All computations of the “worth at the time of the award” of amounts recoverable by Landlord under Subsection (a)(i) and (ii) hereof shall be computed by allowing interest at the lesser of (A) ten percent (10%) or (B) the maximum legal rate allowed by law. The “worth at the time of the award” recoverable by Landlord under Subsection (a)(iii) shall be computed by discounting the amount recoverable by Landlord at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award plus one percent (1%).
(b) Upon termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, Tenant shall immediately vacate the Premises and deliver possession to Landlord. If Tenant is in Default under Section 20.1(j) and Landlord or any of its agents has reason to believe that Tenant does not intend to reoccupy the Premises, and current or past rent has been due or unpaid for at least fourteen (14) consecutive days, then Landlord shall have the right to send Tenant a notice of belief of abandonment pursuant to Section 1951.3 of the California Civil Code. The Premises will be deemed abandoned, and the Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises will terminate on the date set forth in such notice, unless Landlord receives (at its address for notices pursuant to this Lease) before such date a notice from Tenant stating (i) Tenant’s intent not to abandon the Premises, and (ii) an address at which Tenant may be served in any action for unlawful detainer of the Premises and/or damages or other relief available at law or in equity. If the Premises are deemed abandoned pursuant to the foregoing (either through the aforementioned procedure or due to any statement by Tenant to that effect), or if Landlord or any of its agents acts pursuant to a court order, then Landlord or any of its agents shall have the right, without terminating this Lease, to re-enter the Premises and remove all persons therefrom and any or all of Tenant’s fixtures, equipment, furniture, and other personal property (herein collectively referred to as “Property”) from the Premises, without being deemed in any manner liable for trespass, eviction, or forcible entry or detainer, or conversion of Property, and without relinquishing any right given to Landlord under this Lease or by operation of law. If Landlord re-enters the Premises in such situation, all Property removed from the Premises by Landlord or any of its agents and not claimed by the owner may be handled, removed, or stored, in a commercial warehouse or otherwise by Landlord at Tenant’s risk and expense, and Landlord shall in no event be responsible for the value, preservation, or safekeeping thereof. Before the retaking of any such Property from storage, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon demand, all expenses incurred in such removal and all storage charges against such Property. Any such Property of Tenant not so retaken from storage by Tenant within thirty (30) days after such Property is removed from the Premises shall be deemed abandoned and may be either disposed of by Landlord pursuant to Section 1988 of the California Civil Code or retained by Landlord as its own property.
41
(c) Notwithstanding Landlord’s right to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 20.2(a), Landlord may, at its option, even though Tenant has breached this Lease and abandoned the Premises, continue this Lease in full force and effect and not terminate Tenant’s right to possession, and enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease. In such event, Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations-which Tenant agrees are set forth in this Lease). Further, in such event, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all costs of maintenance and preservation of the Premises, and all costs, including attorneys’ fees and receivers’ fees, incurred in connection with appointment of and performance by a receiver to protect the Premises and Landlord’s interest under this Lease. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord pursuant to this Section 20.2(c) shall be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice (signed by a duly authorized representative of Landlord) of intention to terminate this Lease is given to Tenant. Landlord may at any time after Default by Tenant elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Section 20.2(a), notwithstanding Landlord’s prior continuance of this Lease in effect for any period of time, and upon and after Tenant’s Default under this Lease, Landlord may, but need not, relet the Premises or any part thereof for the account of Tenant to any Person for such rent, for such time, and upon such terms as Landlord, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Subject to the provisions of this Lease regarding assignment and subletting in Section 15, Landlord shall not be required to accept any substitute tenant offered by Tenant or to observe any instructions given by Tenant regarding such reletting. Landlord may remove (and repair any damage caused by such removal) and store (or dispose of) any of Tenant’s personal property, equipment, fixtures, and anything else Tenant is required (under this Lease at the election of Landlord or otherwise) to remove but does not remove, and Landlord may also make repairs, renovations, alterations, and/or additions to the Premises to the extent deemed by Landlord necessary or desirable in connection with any attempt to relet the Premises. Tenant shall upon demand pay the cost of such repairs, alterations, additions, removal, storage, and renovations, together with any reasonable legal expenses, brokers commissions, or finders fees and any other reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with its entry upon the Premises and attempt to relet the Premises. If Landlord is able to relet the Premises for Tenant’s account during the remaining portion of the Term and the consideration collected by Landlord from any reletting is not sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of rent and additional rent payable by Tenant under this Lease, together with any reasonable legal expenses, brokers commissions, or finders fees, any reasonable cost for repairs, alterations, additions, removal, storage, and renovations, and any other reasonable cost and expense incurred by Landlord in reentering the Premises and reletting the Premises, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of each monthly deficiency upon demand. Any rentals received by Landlord from any such reletting shall be applied as follows:
(i) First, to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord;
42
(ii) Second, to the payment of any reasonable costs of reentry and reletting the Premises;
(iii) Third, to the payment of reasonable costs of any such alterations, repairs, additions, removal, storage, and renovations to the Premises;
(iv) Fourth, to the payment of rent due and unpaid under this Lease; and
(v) The residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied as payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable under this Lease.
(d) No act or omission by Landlord or its agents during the Term shall be an acceptance of a surrender of the Premises, and no agreement to accept a surrender of the Premises shall be valid, unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Landlord. Neither any remedy set forth in this Lease nor pursuit of any particular remedy shall preclude Landlord from any other remedy set forth in this Lease or otherwise available at law or in equity. Landlord shall be entitled to a restraining order or injunction to prevent Tenant from breaching or defaulting under any of its obligations under this Lease other than the payment of rent or other sums due hereunder.
(e) Neither the termination of this Lease nor the exercise of any remedy under this Lease or otherwise available at law or in equity shall affect the right of Landlord to any right of indemnification set forth in this Lease or otherwise available at law or in equity by reason of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, and all rights to indemnification or other obligations of Tenant shall survive termination of this Lease and termination of Tenant’s right to possession under this Lease.
21. LANDLORD DEFAULT AND TENANT’S REMEDIES.
21.1 | Landlord Default. |
It shall be a default and breach of this Lease by Landlord if Landlord shall fail to perform or observe any term, condition, covenant, or obligation required to be performed or observed by it under this Lease (other than Landlord’s obligations under Sections 7.4 and 12.2, which shall be governed by those Sections) for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Tenant; provided, however, that if the term, condition, covenant, or obligation to be performed by Landlord is of such nature that the same cannot reasonably be performed within such thirty (30) day period, such default shall be deemed to have been cured if Landlord commences such performance within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently undertakes to complete the same.

27.1 | Grant of Extension Options. |
Provided that Tenant is not in Default at the time of its exercise of this option or as of the commencement of the Extension Term, Tenant shall have the option to extend the Term of the Lease (“Extension Option”) for (1) one additional term of five (5) years (“Extension Term”). The Extension Option shall entitle Tenant to extend the Term of this Lease as to all of the Premises.
27.2 | Exercise of Extension Option. |
Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing (the “Tenant’s Extension Notice”) of its intention (subject to the terms and provisions hereof) to exercise the option granted herein no earlier than the date that is two hundred seventy (270) days and no later than the date that is one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the termination of the then existing Term of this Lease or this Extension Option shall automatically be canceled and of no further force and effect, time expressly being of the essence.
48
27.3 | Determination of Extension Annual Base Rental Rate. |
Within thirty (30) days following the receipt of Tenant’s Extension Notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing of Landlord’s determination of the “Extension Annual Base Rental Rate” which shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Market Rate as of the time of Tenant’s Extension Notice, determined as provided in Section 29.1 below. If the parties are unable to agree upon a Market Rate for the Extension Term within sixty (60) days following the date of Landlord’s notice, Tenant shall elect (by written notice delivered to Landlord) to (i) decline to exercise the Extension Option or (ii) elect to exercise the Extension Option and submit the determination of Market Rate to arbitration as provided in Section 29.2, the determination of which shall be binding upon both Landlord and Tenant. The failure by Tenant to timely notify Landlord of its election shall be deemed to constitute Tenant’s election pursuant to clause (i) in the immediately preceding sentence, whereupon all rights and privileges granted to Tenant to renew or extend this Lease shall automatically terminate. If for any reason the Market Rate shall not have been determined prior to the commencement of the Extension Term, then, until the Market Rate and, accordingly, the Extension Annual Base Rental Rate, shall have been finally determined, the Annual Base Rental Rate per Rentable Square Foot in the Premises shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the rate specified in Landlord’s notice as the Market Rate. Upon final determination of the Market Rate, an appropriate adjustment to the Annual Base Rental Rate per rentable square foot in the Premises shall be made reflecting such final determination, and Landlord and Tenant, as the case may be, shall promptly refund or pay to the other any overpayment or deficiency, as the case may be, in the payment of Base Rent from the commencement of the Extension Term to the date of such final determination.
28. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER.
28.1 | Grant of Right of First Offer. |
(a) Throughout the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall have one time right of first offer to lease (the “ROFO”) the currently vacant approximately 11,059 Rentable Square Feet located on the third floor of the Building which is identified on Exhibit A-3 (the “ROFO Space”). Landlord shall notify Tenant of the availability of the ROFO Space (“ROFO Offer Notice”) which such ROFO Offer Notice shall set forth Landlord’s determination of the Market Rate, and a complete copy of any letters of intent, proposals, leases or other writings indicating the terms and conditions of such proposed lease, if applicable.
(b) The Annual Base Rental Rate with respect to the ROFO Space shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Market Rate. In determining the Market Rate applicable to the ROFO Space, Additional Rent shall be calculated pursuant to Section 4 of this Lease as follows: the Base Year shall be the calendar year in which the term for the ROFO Space commences; and Tenant’s Share shall be determined by the ratio of the ROFO Space to the total number of Rentable Square Feet contained in the Building.
49
(c) Tenant shall have a period of ten (10) days after receipt of a ROFO Offer Notice to notify Landlord in writing of either (A) its election to lease such space at the Market Rate if Landlord and Tenant have agreed to the Market Rate during the applicable time period or (B) its election to decline to lease such space or (C) its election to lease such space while leaving the determination of Market Rate to arbitration in accordance with Section 29.2, which shall be binding upon the parties. If Tenant fails to timely notify Landlord regarding (A), (B) or (C) in the preceding sentence within the applicable time period, Tenant shall be deemed to have elected to decline to lease such space, and Landlord may lease the subject space to any third party on any terms. Tenant’s ROFO shall apply to the ROFO Space regardless of whether Tenant has previously failed to exercise its ROFO or any other right with respect to all or any portion of the ROFO Space.
(e) If Tenant elects to lease space pursuant to this Section 28, Tenant and Landlord shall execute an amendment, reflecting the agreed upon terms, within thirty (30) days after agreement is reached regarding such terms, if at all.
29. DETERMINATION OF MARKET RATE.
29.1 | Definition of Market Rate. |
As used in this Lease, “Market Rate” shall mean the then prevailing fair market effective rental rate (which rate could include the payment of a tenant improvement allowance by Landlord, to the extent it is part of fair market rental rate structure), based on tenancies (for a term comparable to the time period in question) covering office space of comparable size and condition to the space in question in comparable buildings in comparable locations in the Pleasanton area including Hacienda Business Park and the Building, determined on a “gross” lease basis (with “gross” meaning terms substantially similar to this Lease) as of the date Tenant exercises the applicable option taking into account the following: (1) the location, quality and age of the building; (2) location, size and/or floor levels of the space in question, including view, elevator, lobby exposure, etc.; (3) definition of “rentable” area; (4) extent of leasehold improvements in the space in question or to be provided, and/or any allowance for same; (5) abatements (including base rental, operating expenses and real estate taxes, and parking charges); (6) inclusion and/or exclusion of parking charges in rental; (7) lease takeovers and assumptions; (8) programming/space planning/interior architecture and engineering allowances; (9) relocation allowances; (10) refurbishment allowances; (11) distinction between “gross,” “modified gross” and “net” leases; (12) base year or dollar amounts for escalation purposes; (13) any other adjustments (including, for example, by way of indices) to base rental; (14) credit standing of Tenant and any applicable tenant; (15) term or length of lease; (16) the time the particular rental rate under consideration was agreed upon and becomes or is to become effective; and (17) any other concession or inducement and/or relevant terms or conditions that a reasonable and knowledgeable real estate professional
50
would include in making such fair value rental rate determination. In each and every instance under this Lease in which the Market Rate is to be determined, integral to such determination shall be all relevant economic factors as enumerated above, including, without limitation, lease takeovers, abatements, leasehold improvements and other allowances, etc. The valuation shall be based on the highest and best use of the Premises permitted under this Lease and not necessarily the use being made by Tenant.
29.2 | Determination by Arbitration. |
If submitted to arbitration, Market Rate for the space in question for the applicable term shall be determined in accordance with this Section 29.2. Within fifteen (15) days following Tenant’s election to submit the determination of Market Rate to arbitration, Tenant and Landlord shall simultaneously exchange in writing signed by the respective parties, in person, their respective determinations of Market Rate for the space in question for the applicable term (in each respective case the “Landlord’s Market Rate” and the “Tenant’s Market Rate”). In the event the Landlord’s Market Rate and the Tenant’s Market Rate differ by less than five percent (5%) per rentable square foot per annum during the applicable term (amortizing any upfront concessions, e.g., leasehold improvements, rental abatements, etc., over the applicable term), then the Market Rate for the space in question for the applicable term shall be the average of the Landlord’s Market Rate and the Tenant’s Market Rate. If the Landlord’s Market Rate and the Tenants Market Rate differ by five percent (5%) or more per rentable square foot per annum during the applicable term, then the Market Rate shall be determined by arbitration and Landlord and Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days following the exchange of the parties respective Market Rate determinations mutually agree upon a third party arbitrator satisfactory to both parties to render a final determination of the Market Rate. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to mutually agree upon an arbitrator within such period, the parties shall then apply to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or any successor thereto for the designation of an arbitrator to render a final determination of the Market Rate. In either event the arbitrator shall (a) be a real estate broker licensed in the State of California, (b) have at least ten (10) years experience in the field of office leasing (including at least five (5) years experience in Northern California-preferably in Pleasanton but not required), (c) not have individually represented either Landlord or Tenant during the preceding five (5) year period, (d) have been involved in transactions comprising at least 3,000,000 square feet in the aggregate and involved in at least 10 transactions in excess of 50,000 Rentable Square Feet, and (e) be generally experienced and competent in determining market rates for office space similar to the space in question. The arbitrator shall conduct such hearings and investigations as the arbitrator shall deem appropriate and shall, within thirty (30) days after having been appointed, choose either Tenant’s Market Rate or Landlord’s Market Rate, and that choice by the arbitrator shall be binding upon Landlord and Tenant as the Market Rate for the space in question for the applicable term. Each party shall pay its own counsel fees and expenses, if any, in connection with any arbitration under this Section 29.2, and the parties shall share equally all other expenses and fees of any such arbitration. The arbitrator shall not have the power to add to, modify, or change any of the provisions of this Lease.

If the Tenant promptly corrects the item(s) in i-iv caused by the Antennas to the Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, the Tenant may restore its operation. If, the Tenant is unable or unwilling to correct that item(s) in i-iv caused by the Antennas to the Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, Landlord, in its sole discretion, may require Tenant to remove the Antennas at Tenant’s own cost and expense.
33. ARBITRATION.
Other than the determination of the Market Rate pursuant to Section 29.2 (which shall be resolved in accordance with such Section), the submittal of all matters to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Section is the sole and exclusive method, means and procedure to resolve any and all claims, disputes or disagreements arising under this Lease, including, but not limited to Landlord’s failure to approve an assignment, sublease or other transfer of Tenant’s interest under this Lease, or any other defaults by Landlord or Tenant except for (i) unlawful detainer proceedings brought by Landlord to gain possession of the Premises or terminate Tenant’s right of possession to the Premises (including any defenses, but not counterclaims, of Tenant thereto), and (ii) claims for
54
specific performance of any obligations under this Lease, which disputes shall be resolved by suit filed in the Superior Court of Alameda County, California, the decision of which court shall be subject to appeal pursuant to applicable law. The parties hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights to the contrary and shall at all times conduct themselves in strict, full, complete and timely accordance with the provisions of this Section and all attempts to circumvent the provisions of this Section shall be absolutely null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever.
Any dispute to be arbitrated pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be determined by binding arbitration before a retired judge of the Superior Court of the State of California (the “Arbitrator”) under the auspices of Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”). Such arbitration shall be deemed initiated by either party sending written notice (the “Arbitration Notice”) of a demand to arbitrate to the other party and to JAMS. The Arbitration Notice shall contain a description of the subject matter of the arbitration, the dispute with respect thereto, the amount involved, if any, and the remedy or determination sought. The parties may agree on a retired judge from the JAMS panel. If they are unable to agree within fourteen (14) days after initiating the Arbitration, either party may direct JAMS to immediately provide a list of three available judges and each party may strike one (the strike list must be returned to JAMS within fourteen (14) days after receipt thereof, failing which either party may direct JAMS to immediately select the Arbitrator from the remaining judge (or if there are two, from the remaining two judges)). The remaining judge (or if there are two, the one selected by JAMS) will serve as the Arbitrator. In the event that JAMS shall no longer exist or if JAMS fails or refuses to accept submission of such dispute, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before AAA under the AAA’s commercial arbitration rules then in effect.
The Arbitrator shall schedule a pre-hearing conference to resolve procedural matters, arrange for the exchange of information, obtain stipulations, narrow the issues and provide a schedule for the Arbitration. The parties will submit proposed discovery schedules to the Arbitrator at the pre-hearing conference. The scope and duration of discovery will be within the sole discretion of the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator shall have the discretion to order a pre-hearing exchange of information by the parties, including, without limitation, production of requested documents, exchange of summaries of testimony of proposed witnesses, and examination by deposition of parties and third-party witnesses. This discretion shall be exercised in favor of discovery reasonable under the circumstances.
The arbitration shall be conducted in Alameda County, California. Any party may be represented by counsel or other authorized representative. In rendering a decision(s), the Arbitrator shall determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive and procedural laws of the State of California and the provisions of this Lease. The Arbitrator’s decision shall be based on the evidence introduced at the hearing, including all logical and reasonable inferences therefrom. The Arbitrator may make any determination, and/or grant any remedy or relief (an “Arbitration Award”) that is just and equitable and not inconsistent with the provisions of this Lease, including without
55
limitation, Sections 20, 21 and 26.6. The decision must be based on, and accompanied by, a written statement of decision explaining the factual and legal basis for the decision as to each of the principal controverted issues. The decision shall be conclusive and binding, and it may thereafter be confirmed as a judgment by the Superior Court of the State of California, subject only to challenge on the grounds set forth in the California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1286.2. The validity and enforceability of the Arbitrator’s decision is to be determined exclusively by the California courts pursuant to the provisions of this Lease. The Arbitrator may award costs, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, and expert and witness costs, to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the Arbitrator in his discretion. The Arbitrator’s fees and costs shall be paid by the non-prevailing party as determined by the Arbitrator in his discretion. A party shall be determined by the Arbitrator to be the prevailing party if its proposal for the resolution of dispute (including attorney fee liability to the date of such proposal) is the closer to that adopted by the Arbitrator.
During the pendency of any arbitration or other proceedings, Tenant shall continue to pay all Rent and Landlord and Tenant shall perform their respective obligations under this Lease.
Prior to the constitution of the arbitration tribunal, and thereafter as necessary in an emergency or to enforce the arbitrator’s rulings or in the absence of the jurisdiction of the arbitrators to rule on interim measures, any party may apply to a court of applicable jurisdiction for interim measures or emergency relief, and the parties agree that seeking and obtaining such measures shall not waive the right to arbitration.

2. The sidewalks, halls, passages, exits, entrances, elevators and stairways shall not be obstructed by Tenant for any purposes other than for ingress to and egress from the Premises. The halls, passages, exits, entrances, elevators, stairways, balconies and roof are not for the use of the general public and the Landlord shall in all cases retain the right to control and prevent access thereto by all persons whose presence in the judgment of Landlord, reasonably exercised, shall be prejudicial to the safety, character, reputation and interests of the Building.

Accordingly:
(a) Landlord may at any time, or from time to time, or for regularly scheduled time periods, as deemed advisable by Landlord and/or its agents, in their reasonable discretion, require that persons entering or leaving the Building identify themselves to watchmen or other employees designated by Landlord, by registration, identification or otherwise.
(b) Landlord may at any time, or from time to time, or for regularly scheduled time periods, as deemed advisable by Landlord and/or its agents, in their reasonable discretion, employ other reasonable security measures, such as, but not limited to, the search parcels, packages, etc., entering and leaving the Building, the evacuation of the Building, and the denial of access of any person to the Building.
(c) Tenant hereby assents to the exercise of the above discretion by Landlord and its agents, so long as such discretion is exercised under reasonable belief of cause regardless of whether or not such action shall in fact be warranted, and so long as any such action is applied uniformly or is aimed at specific persons whose conduct is deemed suspicious.
(d) To the extent such security measures are reasonable for a building such as the Building in light of the circumstances necessitating such security measures, the exercise of such security measures and the resulting interruption of service and cessation or loss of Tenant’s business, if any, shall never be deemed an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises, or any part thereof, or render Landlord liable to Tenant for damages or relieve Tenant from Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
(e) Tenant agrees that it and its employees will reasonably cooperate with Building employees in the implementation of any and all security procedures to the extent such security measures are reasonable for a building such as the Building in light of the circumstances.
(f) Such security measures shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord and Tenant shall have no liability for action taken by Landlord in connection therewith.
To the extent reasonably possible, Landlord shall minimize the disruption to, and shall not employ any such security measures for purposes of harassment or disruption of, Tenant’s business, its employees or Tenant’s invitees.
21. Canvassing, soliciting or peddling in the Building is prohibited and Tenant shall cooperate to prevent same.
22. Tenant shall not make or permit any loud or improper noises in the Premises or the Building or otherwise unreasonably interfere in any way with other tenants in the Building.

Any damage caused by installing, moving or removing such aforementioned articles in the Building shall be paid for by Tenant.
25. The requirements of Tenant will be attended to only upon application at the office of the Building. Except as otherwise provided in the Lease, employees of Landlord and service contractors shall not perform any work for tenants outside of their regular duties, unless under special instructions form the office of the Building.

Landlord reserves the right to modify, amend or rescind any of these Rules and Regulations of the Building, and to make such other and further rules and regulations as in its judgment shall from time to time be needed for the safety, protection, care and cleanliness of the Building, the Leased Premises, the preservation of good order therein and the protection and comfort of the tenants in the Building and their agents, employees and invitees, which rules and regulations when modified, amended or made and written notice thereof is given to Tenant, shall be binding upon Tenant in like manner as if originally herein prescribed, subject to the limitations set forth in the Lease. As provided in the Lease, to the extent any inconsistency exists or arises between these Rules and Regulations and the provisions of the Lease, the provisions of the Lease shall control.
EXHIBIT E

5. DAMAGE TO OR CONDEMNATION OF PARKING FACILITIES: If Landlord fails or is unable to provide any parking space to Tenant in the Parking Facilities because of damage or condemnation, such failure or inability shall never be deemed to be a default by Landlord as to permit Tenant to terminate the Lease, either in whole or in part.
6. VIOLATION OF RULES: Landlord may refuse to permit any person who violates the rules for the Parking Facilities to park in the Parking Facilities and any violation of the rules shall subject the car to removal at the car owner’s expense.

Form of Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement
RECORDING REQUESTED BY AND
AFTER RECORDING, RETURN TO:
SPACE ABOVE THIS LINE RESERVED FOR RECORDER’S USE
SUBORDINATION, NON-DISTURBANCE
AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
This Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (“Agreement”), is made as of this day of , 200 among , its successors, assigns and affiliates (“Lender”), , a (“Landlord”) , and , a (“Tenant”).
Background
Lender has made a loan to Landlord in the original principal amount $ (“Loan”), which is or will be secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or similar security instrument (either, “Security Instrument”) on Landlord’s property described more particularly on Exhibit A attached hereto (“Property”).
Tenant is the present lessee under that certain lease agreement between Landlord and Tenant dated , as thereafter modified and supplemented (“Lease”), demising a portion of the Property described more particularly in the Lease (“Leased Space”).
A requirement of the Loan is that Tenant’s Lease be subordinated to the Security Instrument. Landlord has requested Tenant to so subordinate the Lease in exchange for Lender’s agreement not to disturb Tenant’s possession of the Leased Space upon the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises of this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Subordination. Subject to the terms hereof, and provided Lender complies with its obligations hereunder, Tenant agrees that the Lease, and all estates, options and rights created under the Lease, hereby are subordinated and made subject to the lien and effect of the Security Instrument, as if the Security Instrument had been executed and recorded prior to the Lease. This Agreement is not intended and shall not be construed to subordinate the Lease to any other liens or instruments other than the Security Instrument.
2. Nondisturbance. Lender agrees that no foreclosure (whether judicial or nonjudicial), deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or other sale of the Property in connection with
enforcement of the Security Instrument or otherwise in satisfaction of the Loan shall operate to terminate the Lease or Tenant’s rights thereunder to possess and use the Leased Space and Tenant shall not be named as a party therein unless Lender is legally required to do so in order to proceed with foreclosure, and in any event any such foreclosure shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, such joinder shall not result in the termination of the Lease or Tenant’s rights thereunder to possess and use the leased space and Lender hereby recognizes Tenant’s rights in and to the Leased Space under the Lease; and the sale of the Property in any such action or proceeding and the exercise by Lender of any of its other rights under the Note, the Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Security Instrument) shall be made subject to all rights of Tenant under the Lease, provided, however, that (a) the term of the Lease has commenced, (b) Tenant is in possession of the Leased Space, and (c) the Lease is in full force and effect and no uncured default exists under the Lease beyond any applicable cure periods under any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant’s part to be observed or performed.
3. Attornment. Tenant agrees to attorn to and recognize as its landlord under the Lease each party acquiring legal title to the Property by foreclosure (whether judicial or nonjudicial) of the Security Instrument, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or other sale in connection with enforcement of the Security Instrument or otherwise in satisfaction of the Loan (“Successor Owner”). Provided that the conditions set forth in Section 2 above are met at the time Successor Owner becomes owner of the Property, the Lease shall not be terminated or affected thereby but shall continue in full force and effect as a direct lease between Successor Owner and Tenant upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Lease and Successor Owner shall assume and be bound to Tenant to perform the obligations of Landlord under the Lease, and in that event, Tenant agrees to attorn to Successor Owner and Successor Owner by virtue of such acquisition of the Property shall be deemed to have agreed to accept such attornment. Successor Owner shall perform all obligations of the landlord under the Lease arising from and after the date title to the Property is transferred to Successor Owner. In no event, however, will any Successor Owner be: (a) liable for any default, act or omission of any prior landlord under the Lease except that (i) Successor Owner shall not be relieved from the obligation to cure any defaults which are non-monetary and continuing in nature and such that Successor Owner’s failure to cure the same, from and after the date title to the Property is transferred to Successor Owner, would constitute a continuing default under this Lease; (b) subject to any offset or defense which Tenant may have against any prior landlord under the Lease unless such sums are actually received by Successor Owner (it being understood and agreed that Successor Owner shall be subject to any offsets, defenses, abatements or counterclaims first arising under the Lease from and after the date of such acquisition of the Property by Successor Owner); (c) bound by any payment of rent or additional rent made by Tenant to Landlord more than 30 days in advance unless such sums are actually received by Successor Owner; (d) bound by any agreement terminating or amending or modifying the rent, term, commencement date or other material terms of the Lease, made without Lender’s prior written consent prior to the time Successor Owner succeeded to Landlord’s interest or (e) liable for the return of any security deposit or other prepaid charge paid by Tenant under the Lease, except to the extent such amounts were actually received by Successor Owner. Although the foregoing provisions of this Agreement are self-operative, Tenant agrees to execute and deliver to Lender or any Successor Owner such further instruments as Lender or a Successor Owner may from time to time request
in order to confirm this Agreement; provided, however, that no such instrument shall increase Tenant’s liability or obligations or decrease Tenant’s rights under this Agreement or the Lease (as modified hereby) other than in de minimis respects. If any liability of Successor Owner does arise pursuant to this Agreement, such liability shall be limited to Successor Owner’s interest in the Property.
4. Rent Payments; Notice to Tenant Regarding Rent Payments. Tenant agrees not to pay rent more than one (1) month in advance unless otherwise specified in the Lease. After written notice is given to Tenant by Lender that Landlord is in default under the Security Instrument and that the rentals under the Lease are to be paid to Lender directly pursuant to the assignment of leases and rents granted by Landlord to Lender in connection therewith (which notice shall include payment instructions for Lender’s account), Tenant shall thereafter pay to Lender all rent and all other amounts due or to become due to Landlord under the Lease. Landlord hereby expressly authorizes Tenant to make such payments to Lender upon reliance on Lender’s written notice (without any inquiry into the factual basis for such notice or any prior notice to or consent from Landlord) and hereby discharges and releases Tenant from all liability to Landlord in connection with Tenant’s compliance with Lender’s written instructions.
5. Lender Opportunity to Cure Landlord Defaults. Tenant agrees that, until the Security Instrument is released by Lender, it will not exercise any remedies under the Lease following a Landlord default without having first given to Lender (a) written notice of the alleged Landlord default and (b) the opportunity to cure such default within the longer of (i) 30 days after the cure period provided under the Lease to Landlord, (ii) 30 days from Landlord’s receipt of Tenant’s notice to Lender of a Landlord default, or (iii) if the cure of such default requires possession of the Property, 30 days after Lender has obtained possession of the Property; provided that, in each case, if such default cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period and Lender has diligently commenced to cure such default promptly within the time contemplated by this Agreement, such 30-day period shall be extended for so long as it shall require Lender, in the exercise of due diligence, to cure such default, but, unless the parties otherwise agree, in no event shall the entire cure period be more than 120 days. Tenant acknowledges that Lender is not obligated to cure any Landlord default, but if Lender elects to do so, Tenant agrees to accept cure by Lender as that of Landlord under the Lease and will not exercise any right or remedy under the Lease for a Landlord default. Performance rendered by Lender on Landlord’s behalf is without prejudice to Lender’s rights against Landlord under the Security Instrument or any other documents executed by Landlord in favor of Lender in connection with the Loan.
6. Miscellaneous.
6.1 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement are to be in writing and addressed as set forth below such party’s signature hereto.

6.3 Binding Effect; Joint and Several Obligations. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, legal representatives, successors, and assigns, whether by voluntary action of the parties or by operation of law.
6.4 Unenforceable Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or government body to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal shall be ineffective only to the extent of such determination and shall not affect the validity, enforceability or legality of any other provision, nor shall such determination apply in any circumstance or to any party not controlled by such determination.
6.5 Duplicate Originals; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of duplicate originals, and each duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original. This Agreement (and each duplicate original) also may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together constitute a fully executed Agreement even though all signatures do not appear on the same document.
