4. DELIVERY OF POSSESSION
The Premises shall be deemed to be suitable for possession and delivery to
Tenant and Tenant shall accept delivery on the date Landlord completes
Landlord's portion of any improvements to the Premises. Landlord shall not be
liable to Tenant if Landlord is unable for any reason to deliver possession of
the Premises to Tenant on the Commencement Date set forth in Article 2 hereof.
Landlord's failure to deliver of the Premises to Tenant on that Date shall not
impair the validity of this Lease, but the Commencement Date of the Lease and
Tenant's obligation to pay rent or other sums thereunder shall be delayed until
possession of the Premises is delivered to Tenant. However, if Landlord does not
deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant within ninety (90) days after the
Commencement Date set forth in Article 2, and if the delay is attributable to
Landlord's actions which are not beyond its control, Tenant may elect to cancel
this Lease by giving written notice to Landlord at any time between the end of
said ninety (90) day period and the date that Landlord is able to deliver
possession of the Premises to Tenant, which notice shall specify the reasons
Tenant believes Landlord is in default with respect to the delay. If Tenant
gives such notice to Landlord, this Lease shall be canceled, any refundable
deposits shall be returned to Tenant, and Landlord and Tenant shall have no
further obligations under this Lease or to each other. If Tenant does not give
such notice to Landlord, then Tenant's right to cancel this Lease shall expire
and the Lease Term shall commence upon Landlord's delivery of possession of
Premises to Tenant. If delivery of Possession of the Premises to Tenant shall
occur on a date other than the Commencement Date set forth in said Article 2,
then the date of such delivery of possession of the Premises to Tenant shall
become the Commencement Date of this Lease and Landlord and Tenant shall within
ten (10) days of such date execute a Lease Amendment to amend said Article 2
accordingly.
5. RENT
5.1 Payment of Base Rent. Tenant agrees to pay the monthly
installments of Base Rent for the Premises, in advance on the
first day of each calendar month of the Term. If the Term begins
(or ends) on other than the first (or last) day of a calendar
month, the Base Rent for the partial month shall be prorated on a
per diem basis. Tenant shall pay Landlord the first Monthly
Installment of Base Rent when Tenant executes the Lease.
5.2 Adjustment to Base Rent. Base Rent shall be adjusted upward on
each Anniversary Date of this Lease (each such date being an
"Adjustment Date") for the purpose of reflecting the increase, if
any, of the cost of living, in the following manner:
5.2.1 The base for computing the increase in monthly rent shall
be the "Index" which is published and in effect for the
ninetieth (90) day preceding the Commencement Date
("Beginning Index"). The Index published and in effect for
the ninetieth (90) day preceding the each Adjustment Date
("Comparison Index") shall be used in computing the amount
of increase. On each Adjustment Date, the Base Rent then in
effect shall be increased to equal the product achieved by
multiplying the initial Base Rent specified in Article 2A
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Comparison
Index and the denominator of which is the Beginning Index.
If the Comparison Index declines, the monthly rent due
during the twelve (12) month period following the
Adjustment Date in question shall be the same amount as the
Monthly rent due immediately before the Adjustment Date in
question. No adjustment of Base Rent shall be less than
three percent (3%) and no more than seven percent (7%) of
the Base Rent payable on the Adjustment Date.
5.2.2 As soon as the Base Rent for the next succeeding twelve
(12) months is set, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of
the amount of Base Rent for that succeeding twelve (12)
months indicating how the new Base Rent was computed. Upon
the adjustment of the Base Rent, Tenant shall, upon the
request of the Landlord, promptly execute an amendment to
this Lease setting forth the adjusted Base Rent. In no
event shall Base Rent be reduced below the Base Rent in
effect immediately preceding any such Adjustment Date.
5.2.3 The delay or failure of Landlord to demand any adjustment
to Base Rent shall not constitute a waiver of Landlord's
right to adjust and collect the Base Rent in accordance
with the provisions of this Article 5.2 as to future
adjustments to Base Rent or for prior periods for which
Landlord is entitled to increase Base Rent under this
Article 5.2. If the new Base Rent cannot be determined on
the Adjustment Date in question, Tenant shall continue
paying the Base Rent payable immediately preceding the
Adjustment Date in question, until such time as the new
Base Rent is determined. When the new Base Rent is
determined, Tenant shall pay the new Base Rent retroactive
to the applicable adjustment date.
5.3 Project Operating Costs.
TENANT'S INITIALS:__ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:__
3
A. So that the Rent payable during the Term reflects any increase in
Project Operating Costs, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord as Rent,
Tenant's Proportionate Share of all increases in costs, expenses
and obligations attributable to the Project and its operation, all
as provided below.
B. If, during any calendar year during the Term, Project Operating
Costs exceed the Project Operating Costs for the Base Year, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord, in addition to the Base Rent and all other
payments due under this Lease, an amount equal to Tenant's
Proportionate Share of such excess Project Operating Costs in
accordance with the provisions of this Article 5.3.B.
(1) The term "Project Operating Costs" shall include all those
items described in the following subparagraphs (a) and (b).
(a) All taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges and other
similar governmental charges levied on or attributable to the
Building or Project or their operation, including without
limitation, (i) real property taxes or assessments levied or
assessed against the Building or Project, (ii) assessments or
charges levied or assessed against the Building or Project by
any redevelopment agency, and (iii) any tax measured by gross
rentals received from the leasing of the Premises, Building
or Project, excluding any net income, franchise, capital
stock, estate or inheritance taxes imposed by the State of
Federal government or their agencies, branches or
departments; provided that if at any time during the Term any
governmental entity levies, assesses or imposes on Landlord
any (1) general or special, ad valorem or specific, excise,
capital levy or other tax, assessment, levy or charge
directly on the Rent received under this Lease or on the rent
received under any other leases of space in the Building or
Project, or (2) any license fee, excise or franchise tax,
assessment, levy, or charge measured by or based, in whole or
in part, upon such rent, or (3) any transfer, transaction, or
similar tax, assessment, levy or charge based directly or
indirectly upon the transaction represented by this Lease or
such other leases, or (4) any occupancy, use per capita or
other tax, assessment, levy or charge based directly or
indirectly upon the use or occupancy of the Premises or other
premises within the Building or Project, then any such taxes,
assessments, levies and charges shall be deemed to be
included in the term Project Operating Costs.
(b) Operating costs incurred by Landlord in maintaining,
repairing, replacing and operating the Building and Project,
including without limitation the following: (1) utilities,
including all utilities and services described in Article 9
below; (2) supplies; (3) insurance (including public
liability, properly damage, earthquake, and fire and extended
coverage insurance for the full replacement cost of the
Building and Project as required by Landlord or its lenders;
(4) services of independent contractors; (5) compensation
(including employment taxes and fringe benefits) of all
persons who perform duties connected with the operation,
maintenance, repair or overhaul of the Building or Project,
and equipment, improvements and facilities located within the
Project, including without limitation engineers, janitors,
painters, floor waxers, window washers, security and parking
personnel and gardeners (but excluding persons performing
services not uniformly available to or performed for
substantially all Building or Project tenants); (6) operation
and maintenance of a room for delivery and distribution of
mail to tenants of the Building or Project as required by the
U.S. Postal Service (including, without limitation, an amount
equal to the fair market rental value of the mail room
premises); (7) management of the Building or Project, whether
managed by Landlord or an independent contractor (including,
without limitation, an amount equal to the fair market value
of any on-site manager's office); (8) rental expenses for (or
a reasonable depreciation allowance on) personal property
used in the maintenance, operation or repair of the Building
or Project; (9) costs, expenditures or charges (whether
capitalized or not) required by any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority; (10) amortization of capital
expenses (including financing costs) (i) required by a
governmental entity for energy conservation or life safety
purposes, or (ii) made by Landlord to reduce Project
Operating Costs; and (11) any other costs or expenses
incurred by Landlord under this Lease which are customarily
treated as
TENANT'S INITIALS:__ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:__
4
operating expenses at comparable office buildings in the
area. For the purposes of Article 5.3, for any period during
the term in which the Project is not fully occupied, Landlord
may adjust the "occupancy costs component" of Project
Operating Costs (i.e. those costs of operations which vary
directly with the occupancy level of the Project including,
but not limited to, janitorial expenses) to reasonably
approximate the occupancy costs which would have been
incurred had the Project been fully occupancy.
(2) Tenant's Proportionate Share of Project Operating Costs shall be
payable by Tenant to Landlord as follows:
(a) Beginning with the calendar year following the Base Year
and for each calendar year thereafter ("Comparison Year"),
Tenant shall pay Landlord an amount equal to Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the Project Operating Costs incurred
by Landlord in the Comparison Year which, after applying the
same adjustment in the index to the increase in Project
Operating Costs as is applied to Base Rent in the Comparison
Year, exceeds the total amount of Project Operating Costs
payable by Landlord for the Base Year. This excess is
referred to as the "Excess Expenses". For example, assume
that (i) the Project Operating Costs in the Base Year are
$1.00 per square foot and in the Comparison Year they are
$1.05 per square foot, (ii) the Index has increased 3% in the
Comparison Year over the prior year, and therefore (iii) the
Base Rent has increased by 3% over the prior year. Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the Project Operating Costs for the
Comparison Year will be $.02 per square foot [Comparison Year
expenses ($1.05) minus (Base Year expenses ($1.00) times
Index (3%) = $1.03) = $1.05 minus $1.03) = $.02].
(b) To provide for current payments of Excess Expenses,
Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, pay as additional rent
during each Comparison Year, an amount equal to Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the Excess Expenses, payable during
such Comparison Year, as estimated by Landlord from time to
time. Such payments shall be made in monthly installments,
commencing on the first day of the month following the month
in which Landlord notifies Tenant of the amount it is to pay
hereunder and continuing until the first day of the month
following the month in which Landlord gives Tenant a new
notice of estimated Excess Expenses.-Landlord will estimate
from time to time the amount of the Excess Expenses for each
Comparison Year and Tenant's Proportionate Share thereof, and
then will make an adjustment in the following year based on
the actual Excess Expenses incurred for the Comparison Year.
(c) On or before April 1 of each Comparison Year after the
first Comparison Year (or as soon thereafter as is
practical), Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement
setting forth Tenant's Proportionate Share of the Excess
Expenses for the preceding Comparison Year. If Tenant's
Proportionate Share of the actual Excess Expenses for the
previous Comparison Year exceed the total of the estimated
monthly payments made by Tenant for such year, Tenant shall
pay Landlord the amount of the deficiency within ten (10)
days for the receipt of the statement. If such total exceeds
Tenant's Proportionate Share of the actual Excess Expenses
for such Comparison Year, then Landlord shall credit against
Tenant's next ensuing monthly installment(s) of additional
rent an amount equal to the difference until the credit is
exhausted. If a credit is due from Landlord on the Expiration
Date, Landlord shall pay Tenant the amount of the credit. The
obligations of Tenant and Landlord to make payments required
under this Article 5.3 shall survive the Expiration Date.
(d) Tenant's Proportionate Share of Excess Expenses in any
Comparison Year having less than 365 days shall be
appropriately prorated.
(e) If any dispute arises as to the amount of any additional
rent due hereunder, Tenant shall have the right after
reasonable notice and at reasonable times to inspect
Landlord's accounting records at Landlord's accounting office
and, if after such inspection Tenant still disputes the
amount of additional rent owed, a certification as to the
proper amount shall be made by Landlord's certified public
accountant, which certification shall
TENANT'S INITIALS:__ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:__
5
be final and conclusive. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of
such certification unless it is determined that Landlord's
original statement overstated Project Operating Costs by more
than five percent (5%).
(f) If this Lease sets forth an Expense Stop at Article 2.F.,
then during the Term Tenant shall be liable for Tenant's
Proportionate Share of any actual Project Operating Costs per
rentable square foot which exceed the amount of the Expense
Stop per rentable square foot rather than the Base Year.
Tenant shall make current payments of such excess costs
during the Term in the same manner as is provided for payment
of Excess Expenses under the applicable provisions of Article
5.3, B(2)(b) and (c) above.
5.4 Definition of Rent. All costs and expenses which Tenant assumes or
agrees to pay to Landlord under this Lease shall be deemed
additional rent (which, together with the Base Rent is sometimes
referred to as the "Rent"). The Rent shall be paid to the Building
manager (or other person) and at such place, as Landlord may from
time to time designate in writing, without any prior demand
therefore and without deduction or offset, in lawful money of the
United States of America.
5.5 Rent Control. If the amount of Rent or any other payment due under
this Lease violates the terms of any governmental restrictions on
such Rent or payment, then the Rent or payment due during the
period of such restrictions shall be the maximum amount allowable
under those restrictions. Upon termination of the restrictions,
Landlord shall, to the extent it is legally permitted, recover
from Tenant the difference between the amounts received during the
period of the restrictions and the amounts Landlord would have
received had there been no restrictions.
5.6 Taxes Payable by Tenant. In addition to the Rent and any other
charges to be paid by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable by Landlord
(other than net income taxes) which are not otherwise reimbursable
under this Lease, whether or not now customary or within the
contemplation of the parties, where such taxes are upon, measured
by or reasonably attributable to (a) the cost or value of Tenant's
equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property located
in the Premises, or the cost or value of any leasehold
improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, other
than Building Standard Work made by Landlord, regardless of
whether title to such improvements is held by Tenant or Landlord;
(b) the gross or net Rent payable under this Lease, including,
without limitation, any rental or gross receipts tax levied by any
taxing authority with respect to the receipt of the Rent
hereunder; (c) the possession, leasing, operation, management,
maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the
Premises or any portion thereof; or (d) this transaction or any
document to which Tenant is a party creating or transfering an
interest or an estate in the Premises. If it becomes unlawful for
Tenant to reimburse Landlord for any costs as required under this
Lease, the Base Rent shall be revised to give to Landlord the same
net Rent after imposition of any tax or other charge upon Landlord
as would have been payable to Landlord but for the reimbursement
being unlawful.
6. INTEREST AND LATE CHARGES
If Tenant fails to pay when due any Rent or other amounts or charges
which Tenant is obligated to pay under the terms of this Lease, the
unpaid amounts shall bear interest at the maximum rate then allowed by
law. Tenant acknowledges that the late payment of any monthly
installment of Rent will cause Landlord to lose the use of that money
and incur costs and expenses not contemplated under this Lease,
including without limitation, administrative and collection costs and
processing and accounting expenses, the exact amount of which is
extremely difficult to ascertain. Therefore, in addition to interest
calculated from the due date, if any such installment is not received
by Landlord within ten (10) days from the date it is due, Tenant shall
pay Landlord a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such
installment. Landlord and Tenant agree that this late charge represents
a reasonable estimate of such costs and expenses and is fair
compensation to Landlord for the loss suffered from such nonpayment by
Tenant. Acceptance of any interest or late charge shall not constitute
a waiver of Tenant's default with respect to such nonpayment by Tenant
nor prevent Landlord from exercising any other rights or remedies
available to Landlord under this Lease.
7. SECURITY DEPOSIT
Tenant agrees to deposit with Landlord the Security Deposit set forth
in Article 2.O upon execution of this Lease, as security for Tenant's
faithful performance of its obligations under this Lease. Landlord and
Tenant agree that the Security Deposit may be commingled with funds of
Landlord and
TENANT'S INITIALS:__ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:__
6
Landlord shall have no obligation or liability for payment of interest
on such deposit. Tenant shall not mortgage, assign, transfer or
encumber the Security Deposit without the prior written consent of
Landlord and any attempt by Tenant to do so shall be void, without
force or effect and shall not be binding upon Landlord.
If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or other amount when due and payable
under this Lease, or fails to perform any of the terms hereof, Landlord
may appropriate and apply or use all or any portion of the Security
Deposit for Rent payments or any other amount then due and unpaid, for
payment of any amount for which Landlord has become obligated as a
result of Tenant's default or breach, and for any loss or damage
sustained by Landlord as a result of Tenant's default or breach, and
Landlord may so apply or use this deposit without prejudice to any
other remedy Landlord may have be reason of Tenant's default or breach.
If Landlord so uses any of the Security Deposit, Tenant shall, within
ten (10) days after written demand therefore, restore the Security
Deposit to the full amount originally deposited; Tenant's failure to do
so shall constitute an act of default hereunder and Landlord shall have
the right to exercise any remedy provided for in Article 27 hereof.
Within fifteen (15) days after the Term (or any extension thereof) has
expired or Tenant has vacated the Premises, whichever shall last occur,
and provided Tenant is not then in default on any of its obligations
hereunder, Landlord shall return the Security Deposit to Tenant, or, if
Tenant has assigned its interest under this Lease, to the last assignee
of Tenant. If Landlord sells its interest in the Premises, Landlord may
deliver this deposit to the purchaser of Landlord's interest and
thereupon be relieved of any further liability or obligation with
respect to the Security Deposit.
8. TENANT'S USE OF THE PREMISES
Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the purposes set forth in
Tenant's Use Clause and in compliance with Article 1l.C. and Exhibit
F.
9. SERVICES AND UTILITIES
Landlord shall provide and install a separate electric meter for the
Premises and shall distribute sufficient electric capacity to the
Premises for normal office equipment, lighting, and HVAC (heating,
ventilating and air-conditioning) as required in Landlord's judgement
for the intended use and occupancy of the Premises and as customarily
furnished at comparable office buildings in the area. Any increase of
electric service over that provided by Landlord shall require
Landlord's advance written permission and the costs of any such
increase of electric service shall be the responsibility of Tenant.
Tenant shall not connect any apparatus employing electric current
except through existing outlets and receptacles within the Premises.
Landlord shall furnish, to the Premises, water, sewer and elevator ser-
vice, and janitorial service, exterior window-washing, HVAC equipment &

Tenant shall not consume any of the above services or utilities in
excess of that usually furnished and supplied for use of the Premises
as general office R & D space (as determined by Landlord) without
Landlord's advance written permission (which may be denied) and
Landlord may under such circumstances establish a monthly charge for
Tenant's excess use or consumption of such services and utilities.
Landlord shall maintain and keep lighted the common areas of the
Project, including parking areas, building entries, lobbies, corridors,
staircases, and restrooms, and Landlord shall furnish restroom supplies
and lightbulb replacement for Building Standard (i.e. Landlord
installed) light fixtures within the Premises.
Landlord shall not be in default hereunder or be liable for any
damages directly or indirectly resulting from, nor shall rent be abated
by reason of (i) the installation, use or interruption of use of any
equipment in connection with the furnishing of any of the foregoing
services or utilities, (ii) failure to furnish or delay in furnishing
any such services or utilities where such failure or delay is caused by
accident or making of necessary repairs or improvements to the
Premises, Building or Project, or (iii) the limitation, curtailment or
rationing of, or restrictions on, use of water, electricity, gas or any
other form of energy serving the Premises, Building or Project.
Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances, unless directly
attributable to Landlord's wrongful or negligent acts, for the loss or
damage to Tenant's property or business, through or in connection with
or incidental to failure to furnish or delay in the furnishing of any
of the foregoing services or utilities.
Tenant shall arrange for the initiation of service for any separately
metered utilities to the Premises, including telephone service,
directly with the appropriate utility vendor or supplier, and all
billing invoices, security deposits, and any other charges relating to
the initiation and continued provision of such separately metered
utilities and telephone service shall be the responsibility of and in
the name of Tenant.

the Building, or (iv) the act, omission, misuse or negligence of
Tenant, its agents, contractors, employees or invitees.
(4) If Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order,
condition and repair, Landlord shall give Tenant notice to do such
acts as are reasonably required to so maintain the Premises. If
Tenant fails to promptly commence such work and diligently
prosecute it to completion, then Landlord shall have the right to
do such acts and expend such funds at the expense of Tenant as are
reasonably required to perform such work. Any amount so expended
by Landlord shall be paid by Tenant promptly after demand with
interest at the prime commercial rate then being charged by Bank
of America NT & SA plus four percent (4%) per annum, from the date
of such work, but not to exceed the maximum rate then allowed by
law. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any damage,
inconvenience, or interference with the use of the Premises by
Tenant as a result of performing any such work.
C. Compliance with Law. Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises
in violation of law or any covenant, condition or restriction
affecting the Building or Project or the certificate of occupancy
issued for the Building or Project, and shall, upon notice from
Landlord, immediately discontinue any use of the Premises which is
declared by any governmental authority having jurisdiction to be a
violation of law or the certificate of occupancy. Tenant, at
Tenant's own cost and expense, shall comply with all laws,
ordinances, regulations, rules and/or any directions of any
governmental agencies or authorities having jurisdiction which
shall, by reason of the nature of Tenant's use or occupancy of the
Premises, impose any duty upon Tenant or Landlord with respect to
the Premises or its use or occupation. A judgment of any court of
competent jurisdiction or the admission by Tenant in any action or
proceeding against Tenant that Tenant has violated any such laws,
ordinances, regulations, rules and/or directions in the use of the
Premises shall be deemed to be a conclusive determination of that
fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall not do or permit
to be done anything which will invalidate or increase the cost of
any fire, extended coverage or other insurance policy covering the
Building or Project and/or property located therein, and shall
comply with all rules, orders, regulations, requirements and
recommendations of the Insurance Services Office or any other
organization performing a similar function. Tenant shall promptly
upon demand reimburse Landlord for any additional premium charged
for such policy by reason of Tenant's failure to comply with the
provisions of this Article. Tenant shall not do or permit anything
to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way obstruct
or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the
Building or Project, or injure or

annoy them, or use or allow the Premises to be used for any
improper, immoral, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor
shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or
about the Premises. Tenant shall not commit or suffer to be
committed any waste in or upon the Premises.
D. Waiver by Tenant. Tenant expressly waives the benefits of any
statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise
afford the Tenant the right to make repairs at Landlord's
expense or to terminate this Lease because of Landlord's
failure to keep the Premises in good order, condition and
repair.
E. Load and Equipment Limits. Tenant shall not place a load upon
any floor of the Premises which exceeds the load per square
foot which such floor was designed to carry, as determined by
Landlord or Landlord's structural engineer. The cost of any
such determination required to be made by Landlord's
structural engineer because of Tenant's load requirements
shall be paid for by Tenant upon demand. Tenant shall not
install business machines or mechanical equipment which cause
noise or vibration to such a degree as to be objectionable to
Landlord or other Building tenants.
F. Limit of Landlord's Liability. Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Lease, Landlord shall have no liability to
Tenant nor shall Tenant's obligations under this Lease be
reduced or abated in any manner whatsoever by reason of any
inconvenience, annoyance, interruption or injury to business
arising from any repairs or changes which Landlord is required
or permitted to make in or to any portion of the Project,
Building or the Premises. Landlord shall nevertheless use
reasonable efforts to minimize any interference with Tenant's
business in the Premises.
G. Tenant Notice. Tenant shall give Landlord prompt notice of any
damage to or defective condition in any part or appurtenance
of the Building's mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC or
other systems serving, located in, or passing through the
Premises.

termination of this Lease, Tenant shall return the Premises to
Landlord clean and in the same condition as on the date Tenant
took possession, except for normal wear and tear. Any damage
to the Premises, including any structural damage, resulting
from Tenant's use or from the removal of Tenant's fixtures,
furnishings, and equipment pursuant to Article 13.B. shall be
repaired by Tenant at Tenant's expense.
12. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS
A. Tenant shall not make any additions, alterations, or
improvements to the Premises without obtaining the prior
written consent of Landlord. Landlord's consent may be
conditioned on Tenant's removing any such additions,
alterations or improvements upon the expiration of the Term
and restoring the Premises to the same condition as on the
date Tenant took possession. All work with respect to any
addition, alteration or improvement shall be done in a good
and workmanlike manner by properly qualified and licensed
personnel approved by Landlord, and such work shall be
diligently prosecuted to completion. Landlord may, at
Landlord's option, require that Landlord's contractor or
Architect supervise and/or perform that portion of any such
alternation or additions involving the Building's roof,
exterior metal siding and/or stucco surfaces, windows and/or
window frames, waterproofing any underground work,
landscaping, building entry doors and/or building security
systems, common area equipment or improvements, and/or any
item or element with the Premises, Building or Project

or supplies for Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant.
Tenant shall keep Tenant's leasehold interest, and any
additions or improvements which are or become the property of
Landlord under this Lease, free and clear of all attachment or
judgment liens. Before the actual commencement of any work for
which a claim or lien may be filed, Tenant shall give Landlord
notice of the intended commencement date a sufficient time
before that date to enable Landlord to post notices of
non-responsibility or any other notices which Landlord deems
necessary for the proper protection of Landlord's interest in
the Premises, Building or the Project, and Landlord shall have
the right to enter the Premises

and post such notices at any reasonable time.
C. Landlord may require, at Landlord's sole option, that Tenant
provide to Landlord, at Tenant's expense, a lien and
completion bond in an amount equal to at least one and
one-half (1-1/2) times the total estimated cost of any
additions, alterations or improvements to be made in or to the
Premises, to protect Landlord against any liability for
mechanic's and materialmen's liens and to insure timely
completion of the work. Nothing contained in this Article
12.C. shall relieve Tenant of its obligation under Article
12.B. to keep the Premises, Building and Project free of all
liens.
D. Unless removal is required by Landlord as provided in Article
12.A., all additions, alterations and improvements made to the
Premises shall become the property of Landlord and be
surrendered with the Premises upon the expiration of the Term;

property owned by Tenant and located in the Premises
(collectively "Tenant's Property") shall be and shall remain
the property of Tenant and may be removed by Tenant at any
time during the Term; provided that if any of Tenant's
Property is removed, Tenant shall promptly repair any damage
to the Premises or to the Building resulting from such
removal.

preservation of the Premises or the Building or Landlord's interest
therein, or as may be necessary or desirable for the operation or
improvement of the Building or in order to comply with laws, orders or
requirements of governmental or other authority. Landlord agrees to use
its best efforts (except in an emergency) to minimize interference with
Tenant's business in the Premises in the course of any such entry.
16. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
No assignment of this Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises
shall be permitted, except as provided in this Article 16.
A. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord,
assign, transfer, encumber or hypothecate this Lease or any interest
herein or sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or permit the use of
the premises by any party other than Tenant. Any of the foregoing acts
without such consent shall be void and shall, at the option of
Landlord, terminate this Lease. This Lease shall not, nor shall any
interest of Tenant herein, be assignable by operation of law without
the written consent of Landlord. "Transfer" within the meaning of this
Article 16 shall include the transfer or transfers aggregating: (a) if
Tenant is a corporation, more than 25% of the voting stock of Tenant;
or (b) if Tenant is a partnership, more than 25% of the profit and loss
participation in such partnership.
B. If at any time or from time to time during the Term, Tenant desires to
assign this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Premises, Tenant
shall give notice to Landlord setting forth the terms and provisions of
the proposed assignment or sublease, and the identity of the proposed
assignee or subtenant. Tenant shall promptly supply Landlord with such
information concerning the business background and financial condition
of such proposed assignee or subtenant as Landlord may reasonably
request. Landlord shall have the option, exercisable by notice given to
Tenant within twenty (20) days after Tenant's notice is given, either
to sublet such space from Tenant at the rental and on the other terms
set forth in this Lease for the term set forth in Tenant's notice, or,
in the case of an assignment, to terminate this Lease. If Landlord does
not exercise such option, Tenant may assign the Lease or sublet such
space to such proposed assignee or subtenant on the following further
conditions:
(1) Landlord shall have the right to approve such proposed assignee or
subtenant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld;
(2) The assignment or sublease shall be on the same terms set forth in
the notice given to Landlord;
(3) No assignment or sublease shall be valid and no assignee or
sublessee shall take possession of the Premises until an executed

result of such assignment or subletting, however denominated under the
assignment or sublease, which exceed, in the aggregate, (i) the total
sums which Tenant is obligated to pay Landlord under this Lease
(prorated to reflect obligations allocable to any portion of the
Premises subleased), plus (ii) any real estate brokerage commissions or
fees payable in connection with such assignment or subletting, shall be
paid to Landlord as additional rent under this Lease without affecting
or reducing any other obligations of Tenant hereunder.
(6) If Tenant's obligation under this Lease have been guaranteed by
third parties, then an assignment or sublease, and Landlord's consent
thereto, shall not be effective unless said guarantors give their
written consent to each assignment or sublease and the terms thereof.
C. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs A. and B. above, Tenant
may assign this Lease or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof,
without Landlord's consent and without extending any recapture or
termination option to Landlord, to any corporation which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with Tenant, or to any
corporation resulting from a merger or consolidation with Tenant, or to
any person or entity which acquires all the assets of Tenant's business
as a going concern, provided that (i) the assignee or sublessee
assumes, in full, the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, (ii)
Tenant remains fully liable under this Lease, and (iii) the use of the
Premises under Article 8 remains unchanged.

11
D. No subletting or assignment shall release Tenant of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease or alter the primary liability of Tenant
to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by
Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other
person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision
hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be deemed
consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. In the event of
default by an assignee or subtenant of Tenant or any successor of
Tenant in the performance of any of the terms hereof, Landlord may
proceed directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting
remedies against such assignee, subtenant or successor. Landlord may
consent to subsequent assignments of the Lease or sublettings or
amendments or modifications to the Lease with assignees of Tenant,
without notifying Tenant, or any successor of Tenant, and without
obtaining its or their consent thereto and any such actions shall not
relieve Tenant of liability under this Lease.
E. If Tenant assigns the Lease or sublets the Premises or requests the
consent of Landlord to any assignment or subletting or if Tenant
requests the consent of Landlord for any act that Tenant proposes to
do, then Tenant shall, upon demand, pay Landlord an administrative fee
of One Hundred Fifty and No/100ths Dollars ($150.00) plus any
attorneys' fees reasonably incurred by Landlord in connection with such
act or request.
17. HOLDING OVER

Premises with Landlord's permission (express or implied), Tenant shall
become a tenant from month to month only, upon all the provisions of
this Lease (except as to term and Base Rent), but the monthly
installments of Base Rent payable by Tenant shall be increased to one
hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Monthly Installments of Base Rent
payable by Tenant at the expiration of the Term. Such monthly rent
shall be payable in advance on or before the first day of each month.
If either party desires to terminate such month to month tenancy, it
shall give the other party not less than thirty (30) days advance
written notice of the date of termination.
18. SURRENDER OF PREMISES
A. Tenant shall peaceably surrender the Premises to Landlord on the
Expiration Date, in broomclean condition and in as good
condition as when Tenant took possession, except for (i)
reasonable wear and tear, (ii) loss by fire or other casualty
and (iii) loss by condemnation. Tenant shall, on Landlord's
request, remove Tenant's Property on or before the Expiration
Date and promptly repair all damage to the Premises or Building
caused by such removal.

all or any part of such Tenant's Property, the cost of removal,
including repairing any damage to the Premises or Building
caused by such removal, shall be paid by Tenant. On the
Expiration Date, Tenant shall surrender all keys to the
Premises.
19. DESTRUCTION OR DAMAGE
A. If the Premises or the portion of the Building necessary for
Tenant's occupancy is damaged by fire, earthquake, act of God,
the elements or other casualty, Landlord shall, subject to the
provisions of this Article, promptly repair the damage, if such
repairs can, in Landlord's opinion, be completed within ninety
(90) days and if sufficient insurance proceeds are available to
landlord to complete the repair. If Landlord determines that
repairs can be completed within ninety (90) days, this Lease
shall remain in full force and effect, except that if such
damage is not the result of the negligence or willful misconduct
of Tenant or Tenant's agents, employees, contractors, licensees
or invitees, the Base Rent shall be abated to the extent
Tenant's use of the Premises is impaired, commencing with the
date of damage and continuing until completion of the repairs
required by Landlord under Article 19.D.
B. If in Landlord's opinion, such repairs to the Premises or
portion of the Building necessary for Tenant's occupancy cannot
be completed within ninety (90) days, Landlord may elect, upon
notice to Tenant given within thirty (30) days after the date of
such fire or other casualty, to repair such damage, in which
event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but
the Base Rent shall be partially abated as provided in Article
19.A. If Landlord does not so elect to make such repairs, this
Lease shall terminate as of the date of such fire or other
casualty.

repair thereof cannot be completed within ninety (90) days, or
if

12
sufficient insurance proceeds are not available to Landlord to complete
the repair. Landlord may elect upon notice to Tenant given within
thirty (30) days after the date of such fire or other casualty, to
repair such damage, in which event this Lease shall continue in full
force and effect, but the Base Rent shall be partially abated as
provided in Article 19.A. If Landlord does not elect to make such
repairs, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such tire or
other casualty.

repair at its cost any injury or damage to the Building and Building
Standard Work in the Premises. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole
cost and expense for the repair, restoration and replacement of any
other Leasehold Improvements and Tenant's Property. Landlord shall not
be liable for any loss of business, inconvenience or annoyance arising
from any repair or restoration of any portion of the Premises, Building
or Project as a result of any damage from fire or other casualty.
E. This Lease shall be considered an express agreement governing any case
of damage to or destruction of the Premises, Building or Project by
fire or other casualty, and any present or future law which purports to
govern the rights of Landlord and Tenant in such circumstances in the
absence of express agreement, shall have no application.
20. EMINENT DOMAIN
A. If the whole of the Building or Premises is law-fully taken by
condemnation or in any other manner for any public or quasi-public
purpose, this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such taking, and
Rent shall be prorated to such date. If less than the whole of the
Building or Premises is so taken, this Lease shall be unaffected by
such taking, provided that (i) Tenant shall have the right to terminate
this Lease by notice to Landlord given within ninety (90) days after
the date of such taking if twenty percent (20%) or more of the Premises
is taken and the remaining area of the Premises is not reasonably
sufficient for Tenant to continue operation of its business, and (ii)
Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by notice to
Tenant given within ninety (90) days after the date of such taking. If
either Landlord or Tenant so elects to terminate this Lease, the Lease
shall terminate on the thirtieth (30th) day after either such notice.
The Rent shall be prorated to the date of termination. If this Lease
continues in force upon such partial taking, the Base Rent and Tenant's
Proportionate Share shall be equitably adjusted according to the
remaining Rentable Area of the Premises and Project.
B. In the event of any taking, partial or whole, all of the proceeds of
any award, judgment or settlement payable by the condemning authority

or settlement from the condemning authority. Tenant, however, shall be
entitled to any separate award for loss of or damage to Tenant's trade
fixtures, removable personal property and unamortized Tenant
improvements that have been paid for by Tenant. For that purpose, the
cost of such improvements shall be amortized over the original term of
the Lease, excluding any options.
C. In the event of a partial taking of the Premises which does not result
in a termination of this Lease, Landlord shall restore the remaining
portion of the Premises as nearly as practicable to its condition prior
to the condemnation or taking, but only to the extent of Building
Standard Work. Tenant shall be responsible at its sole cost and--
expense for the repair, restoration and replacement of any other
Leasehold Improvements and Tenant's Property.
21. INDEMNIFICATION
A. Unless caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord,
Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless against and from any
and all liability and claims of any kind for loss or damage to property
of Tenant or any other person, or for any injury to or death of any
person, arising out of: (1) Tenant's use and occupancy of the Premises,
or any work, activity or other things done in, on or about the Premises
or elsewhere; (2) any breach or default by Tenant of any of Tenant's
obligations under this Lease; or (3) any act or omission of Tenant, its

any action or proceeding arising from any such claim and shall
indemnify Landlord against all costs, attorneys' fees, expert witness
fees and any other expenses incurred in such action or proceeding. As a

Landlord be liable for injury to the person of Tenant, Tenant's
employees, agents, invitees, or contractors whether such damage or
injury is, caused by or resulting from theft, fire, steam, electricity,
gas, water or rain which may leak or flow from or into any part of the
Premises or Project, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or
other defects of pipes, sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air
conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether

act or omission of any other tenant or occupants of the Building or
Project.

maintain such insurance, Landlord may (but shall not be required to)
procure said insurance on Tenant's behalf and charge the Tenant the
premiums together with a handling charge of twenty-five percent (25%)

provide such insurance coverage pursuant to blanket policies obtained

Tenant shall mutually agree to increases in all of Tenant's insurance
policy limits for all insurance to be carried by Tenant as set forth in
this Article. In the event Landlord and Tenant cannot mutually agree
upon the amounts of said increases, then Tenant agrees that all
insurance policy limits as set forth in this Article shall be adjusted
for increases in the cost of living in the same manner as is set forth
in Article 5.2 hereof for the adjustment of the Base Rent.
23. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION
Landlord and Tenant each hereby waive all rights of recovery against the
other and against the officers, employees, agents and representatives of the
other, on account of loss by or damage to the waiving party or its property
or the property of others under its control, to the extent that such loss or
damage is insured against under any fire and extended coverage insurance
policy which either may have in force at the time of the loss or damage.
Tenant shall, upon obtaining the policies of insurance required under this
Lease, give notice to its insurance carrier or carriers that the foregoing
mutual waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease.
24. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT
Upon written request of Landlord, or any mortgage or deed of trust
beneficiary of Landlord, or ground lessor of Landlord, Tenant shall, in
writing, subordinate its rights under this Lease to the lien of any mortgage
or deed of trust, or to the interest of any lease in which Landlord is
lessee ("Security Device"), and to all advances made or hereafter to be made
thereunder. However, before signing any subordination agreement, Tenant
shall have the right to obtain from any lender or lessor of Landlord
requesting such subordination, an agreement in writing providing that, as
long as Tenant is not in default hereunder, this Lease shall remain in
effect for the full Term. The holder of any Security Device may, upon
written notice to Tenant, elect to have this Lease prior to its Security
Device regardless of the time of the granting or recording of such Security
Device.
In the event of any foreclosure sale, transfer in lieu of foreclosure or
termination of the lease in which Landlord is lessee, Tenant shall attorn to
the purchaser, transferee or lessor as the case may be, and recognize that
party as Landlord under this Lease, provided such party acquires and accepts
the Premises subject to this Lease.
25. TENANT ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) days after written request from Landlord, Tenant shall

and deliver such statement within the time required shall at Landlord's
election be in default under this Lease and shall also be conclusive upon
Tenant that: (1) this Lease is in full force and effect and has not been
modified except as represented by Landlord; (2) there are no uncured
defaults in Landlord's performance and that Tenant has no right of offset,
counter-claim or deduction against Rent; and (3) not more than one month's
Rent has been paid in advance.
26. TRANSFER OF LANDLORD'S INTEREST
In the event of any sale or transfer by Landlord of the Premises, Building
or Project, and assignment of this Lease by Landlord, Landlord shall be and
is hereby entirely freed and relieved of any and all liability and
obligations contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act,
occurrence or omission relating to the Premises, Building, Project or Lease
occurring after the consummation of such sale or transfer, providing the
purchaser shall expressly assume all of the covenants and obligations of
Landlord under this Lease. If any security deposit or prepaid Rent has been
paid by Tenant, Landlord may transfer the security deposit or prepaid Rent
to Landlord's successor and upon such transfer, Landlord shall be relieved
of any and all further liability with respect thereto.
27. DEFAULT

TENANT'S INITIALS:___ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:___
15
B. If Tenant fails to pay any Rent or any other charges required to be
paid by Tenant under this Lease and such failure continues for five (5)
days after such payment is due and payable; or
C. If Tenant fails to promptly and fully perform any other covenant,
condition or agreement contained in this Lease and such failure
continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from
Landlord to Tenant; or
D. If a writ of attachment or execution is levied on this Lease or on any
of Tenant's Property; or
E. If Tenant makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
provides for an arrangement, composition, extension or adjustment with
its creditors; or
F. If Tenant files a voluntary petition for relief or if a petition
against Tenant in a proceeding under the federal bankruptcy laws or
other insolvency laws is filed and not withdrawn or dismissed within
forty-five (45) days thereafter, or if under the provisions of any law
providing for reorganization or winding up of corporations, any court
of competent jurisdiction assumes jurisdiction, custody or control of
Tenant or any substantial part of its property and such jurisdiction,
custody or control remains in force unrelinquished, unstayed or
unterminated for a period of forty-five (45) days; or
G. If in any proceeding or action in which Tenant is a party, a trustee,
receiver, agent or custodian is appointed to take charge of the
Premises or Tenant's Property (or has the authority to do so) for the
purpose of enforcing a lien against the Premises or Tenant's Property;
or
H. If Tenant is a partnership or consists of more than one (1) person or
entity, if any partner of the partnership or other person or entity is
involved in any of the acts or events described in subparagraphs D.

27.2 Remedies. In the event of Tenant's default hereunder, then in addition to
any other rights or remedies Landlord may have under any law, Landlord shall
have the right, at Landlord's option, without further notice or demand of
any kind to do the following:
A. Terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to possession of the Premises
and reenter the Premises and take possession thereof, and Tenant shall
have no further claim to the Premises or under this Lease; or
B. Continue this Lease in effect, reenter and occupy the Premises for the
account of Tenant, and collect any unpaid Rent or other charges which
have or thereafter become due and payable; or
C. Reenter the Premises under the provisions of subparagraph B, and
thereafter elect to terminate this Lease and Tenant's right to
possession of the Premises.
If Landlord reenters the Premises under the provisions of subparagraphs B or
C above, Landlord shall not be deemed to have terminated this Lease or the
obligation of Tenant to pay any Rent or other charges thereafter accruing,
unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of Landlord's election to
terminate this Lease. In the event of any reentry or retaking of possession
by Landlord, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
remove all or any part of Tenant's Property in the Premises and to place
such property in storage at a public warehouse at the expense and risk of
Tenant. If Landlord elects to relete the Premises for the account of Tenant,
the rent received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied as
follows: first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than Rent due
hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs of
such reletting including but not limited to leasing brokerage fees; third,
to the payment of the cost of any alterations or repairs to the Premises;
fourth to the payment of Rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the balance, if
any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future Rent as it
becomes due. If that portion of rent received from the reletting which is
applied against the Rent due hereunder is less than the amount of the Rent
due, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord promptly upon demand by
Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Tenant shall
also pay to Landlord, as soon as determined, any costs and expenses incurred
by Landlord in connection with such reletting or in making alterations and
repairs to the Premises, which are not covered by the rent received from the
reletting.

Should Landlord elect to terminate this Lease under the provisions of
subparagraph A or C above, Landlord may recover as damages from Tenant
the following:
1. Past Rent. The worth at the time of the award of any unpaid Rent
which had been earned at the time of termination; plus
2. Rent Prior to Award. 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
3. Rent After Award. 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 award exceeds the amount of the rental loss that Tenant proves
could be reasonably avoided; plus
4. Proximately Caused Damages. Any other amount necessary to compensate
Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to
perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary
course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but
not limited to, any costs or expenses (including attorneys' fees),
incurred by Landlord in (a) retaking possession of the Premises, (b)
maintaining the Premises after Tenant's default, (c) preparing the
Premises for reletting to a new tenant, including any repairs or
alterations, and (d) reletting the Premises, including brokers'
commissions.
"The worth at the time of the award" as used in subparagraphs 1 and 2
above, is to be computed by allowing interest at the rate of the
percent (10%) per annum. "The worth at the time of the award" as used
in subparagraph 3 above, is to be computed by discounting the amount at
the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank situated nearest to the
Premises at the time of the award plus one percent (1%).
The waiver by Landlord of any breach of any term, covenant or condition
of this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of such term, covenant or
condition or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term,
covenant or condition. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord subsequent to any
breach hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any preceding breach
other than the failure to pay the particular Rent so accepted,
regardless of Landlord's knowledge of any breach at the time of such
acceptance of Rent. Landlord shall not be deemed to have waived any
term, covenant or condition unless Landlord gives Tenant written notice
of such waiver.
27.3 Landlord's Default. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, the obligations of Landlord (including any actual or alleged
breach or default by Landlord) do not constitute personal obligations
of the individual partners, directors, officers or shareholders of
Landlord or Landlord's partners, and Tenant shall not seek recourse
against the individual partners, directors officers or shareholders of
Landlord or Landlord's partners, or any of their personal assets for
satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Lease other than
their interest in and to the project. If Landlord fails to perform any
covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Lease within thirty
(30) days after receipt of written notice from Tenant specifying such
default, or if such default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty
(30) days, if Landlord fails to commence to cure within that thirty
(30) day period, then Landlord shall be liable to Tenant for any
damages sustained by Tenant as a result of Landlord's breach; provided,
however, it is expressly understood and agreed that if Tenant obtains a
money judgment against Landlord resulting from any default or other
claim arising under this Lease, that judgment shall be satisfied only
out of the rents, issues, profits, and other income actually received
on account of Landlord's right, title and interest in the Premises,
Building or Project, and no other real, personal or mixed property of
Landlord (or of any of the partners which comprise Landlord, if any)
wherever situated, shall be subject to levy to satisfy such judgment.
If, after notice to Landlord of default, Landlord (or any mortgagee or
deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord) fails to cure the default as
provided herein, then Tenant shall have the right to cure that default
at Landlord's expense. Tenant shall not have the right to terminate
this Lease or to withhold, reduce or offset any amount against any
payments of Rent or any other charges due and payable under this Lease.
28. BROKERAGE FEES
Tenant warrants and represents that it has not dealt with any real estate
broker or agent in connection with this Lease or its negotiation except
Broker and Sales Agent as set forth in Article 2.C. Tenant shall indemnify
and hold Landlord harmless from any cost, expense or liability (including
costs of
TENANT'S INITIALS:______ LANDLORD'S INITIALS:_______
17
suit and reasonable attorneys' fees) for any compensation, commission or
fees claimed by any other real estate broker or agent in connection with
this Lease or its negotiation by reason of any act of Tenant.
29. NOTICES

addressed as follows: (a) if to Landlord, to Landlord's Mailing Address and
to the Building manager, and (b) if to Tenant, to Tenant's Mailing Address;
provided, however, notices to Tenant shall be deemed duly served or given if
delivered or mailed to Tenant at the Premises. Landlord and Tenant may from
time to time, by notice to the other, designate another place for receipt of
future notices.
30. GOVERNMENT ENERGY OR UTILITY CONTROLS
In the event of imposition of federal, state or local government controls,
rules, regulations, or restrictions on the use or consumption of energy or
other utilities during the Term, both Landlord and Tenant shall be bound
thereby. In the event of a difference in interpretation by Landlord and
Tenant of any such controls, the interpretation of Landlord shall prevail,
and Landlord shall have the right to enforce compliance therewith, including
the right of entry into the Premises to effect compliance.
31. QUIET ENJOYMENT
Tenant, upon paying the Rent and performing all of its obligations under
this Lease, shall peaceably and quietly enjoy the Premises, subject to the
terms of this Lease and to any mortgage, lease, or other agreement to which
this Lease may be subordinate.
32. FORCE MAJEURE
Any prevention, delay or stoppage of work to be performed by Landlord or
Tenant which is due to strikes, labor disputes, inability to obtain labor,
materials, equipment or reasonable substitutes therefore, acts of God,
governmental restrictions or regulations or controls, judicial orders, enemy
or hostile government actions, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, or
other causes beyond the reasonable control of the party obligated to perform
hereunder, shall excuse performance of the work by that party for a period
equal to the duration of that prevention, delay or stoppage. Nothing in this
Article 34 shall excuse or delay Tenant's obligation to pay Rent or other
charges under this Lease.
33. CURING TENANT'S DEFAULTS
If Tenant defaults in the performance of any of its obligations under this
Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) without waiving such
default, perform the same for the account and at the expense of Tenant.
Tenant shall pay Landlord all costs, plus a 10% fee on all such costs, of
such performance promptly upon receipt of a xxxx therefore.
34. SIGN CONTROL
Tenant shall not affix, paint, erect or inscribe any sign, projection,
awning, signal or advertisement of any kind to any part of the Premises,
Building or Project, including without limitation, the inside or outside of
windows or doors, without the written consent of Landlord. Landlord shall
have the right to remove any signs or other matter, installed without
Landlord's written permission, without being liable to Tenant by reason of
such removal, and to charge the cost of removal to Tenant as additional rent
hereunder, payable within ten (10) days of written demand by Landlord.
35. MISCELLANEOUS
A. Accord and Satisfaction; Allocation of Payments. No payment by Tenant
or receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the Rent provided for in
this Lease shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest
due Rent, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or
letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be deemed an accord
and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without
prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of the Rent or
pursue any other remedy provided for in this Lease. In connection with
the foregoing, Landlord shall have the absolute right in its sole
discretion to apply any payment received from Tenant to any account or
other payment of Tenant then not current and due or delinquent.
B. Riders. If any provision contained in a rider to this Lease is
inconsistent with any other

provision herein, the provision contained in the rider shall control,
unless otherwise provided in the rider.
C. Attorneys' Fees. If any action or proceeding is brought by either party
against the other pertaining to or arising out of this Lease, the finally
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred on account of such action

reference only and in no way define, limit or enlarge the scope or
meaning of this Lease. All references to Article and Section numbers
refer to Articles and Sections in this Lease.
E. Changes Requested by Lender. Tenant shall not unreasonably withhold its
consent to changes or amendments to this Lease requested by Landlord's
lender, so long as these changes do not alter the basic business terms of
this Lease or otherwise materially diminish any rights or materially
increase any obligations of the Tenant.
F. Choice of Law. This Lease shall be construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State.
G. Consent. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the
contrary, Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to any
claim against Landlord for money damages by reason of any refusal,
withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent, approval or statement
of satisfaction, and in such event, Tenant's only remedies therefore
shall be an action for specific performance, injunction or declaratory
judgment to enforce any right to such consent, etc.
H. Corporate Authority. If Tenant is a corporation, each individual signing
this Lease on behalf of Tenant represents and warrants that he is duly
authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the
corporation, and that this Lease is binding on Tenant in accordance with
its terms. Tenant shall, at Landlord's request, deliver a certified copy
of a resolution of its board of directors authorizing such execution.
I. Counterparts. This Lease may be executed in multiple counterparts, all of
which shall constitute one and the same Lease.
J. Execution of Lease; No Option. The submission of this Lease to Tenant
shall be for examination purposes only, and does not and shall not
constitute a reservation of or option for Tenant to lease, or otherwise
create any interest of Tenant in the Premises or any other premises
within the Building or Project. Execution of this Lease by Tenant and its
return to Landlord shall not be binding on Landlord notwithstanding any
time interval, pending Landlord's Lender's approval of this Lease and
that Landlord has executed and delivered this Lease to Tenant.
K. Furnishing of Financial Statements; Tenant's Representations. To induce
Landlord to enter into this Lease or any extension thereof, Tenant agrees
that it shall promptly furnish Landlord, for Landlord's review and
approval, upon Landlord's written request, with financial statements
reflecting Tenant's current financial condition. Tenant represents and
warrants that all financial statements, records and information furnished
by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease are true, correct and
complete in all respects.
L. Further Assurances. The parties agree to promptly sign all documents
reasonably requested to give effect to the provisions of this Lease.
M. Mortgagee Protection. Tenant agrees to send by certified or registered
mail to any mortgagee or deed of trust beneficiary of Landlord whose
address has been furnished to Tenant, a copy of any notice of default
served by Tenant on Landlord. If Landlord fails to cure such default
within the time provided for in this Lease, such mortgagee or beneficiary
shall have an additional thirty (30) days to cure such default; provided
that if such default cannot reasonably be cured within that thirty (30)
day period, then such mortgagee or beneficiary shall have such additional
time to cure the default as is reasonably necessary under the
circumstances.
N. Prior Agreements; Amendments. This Lease contains all of the agreements
of the parties with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this
Lease, and no prior agreement or understanding pertaining to any such
matter shall be effective for any purpose. No provisions
TENANT'S INITIALS: __ LANDLORD'S INITIALS: __
19
of this Lease may be amended or modified except by an agreement in writing
signed by the parties or their respective successors in interest.
O. Severability. A final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction
that any provision of this Lease is invalid shall not affect the
validity of any other provision, and any provision so determined to be
invalid shall, to the extent possible, be construed to accomplish its
intended effect.
P. Successors and Assigns. This Lease shall apply to and bind the heirs,
personal representatives, and permitted successors and assigns of the
parties.
Q. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of this Lease.
R. Waiver. No delay or failure to exercise any right or remedy of Landlord
upon any default by Tenant shall impair such right or remedy or be
construed as a waiver of such default.
No act or conduct of Landlord, including, without limitation, the
acceptance of keys to the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the
surrender of the Premises by Tenant before the expiration of the Term.
Only a written notice from Landlord to Tenant shall constitute acceptance
of the surrender of the Premises and accomplish a termination of the
Lease.
Landlord's consent to or approval of any act by Tenant requiring
Landlord's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of any subsequent act by
Tenant.

6. ABATEMENT OF RENT WHEN TENANT IS PREVENTED FROM USING PREMISES
--------------------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, in the
event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any
portion of the Premises greater than five percent (5%) of the Rentable Area of
the Premises for ten (10) consecutive days (the "Eligibility Period") as a
result of any damage or destruction to the Premises, or the taking of all or any
part of the Premises by eminent domain, or any failure on the part of Landlord
or Landlord's agents, employees, contractors or representatives, to provide
services or access to the Premises, except for those provided by public
utilities or other public entities over which Landlord has no control, then
Tenant's obligation to pay Rent shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be,
after expiration of the Eligibility Period, for such time that Tenant continues
to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion
thereof, in the proportion that the Rentable Area of the portion of the Premises
that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total
Rentable Area of the Premises. If Tenant's right to abatement occurs because of
an eminent domain taking and/or because of damage or destruction to the Premises

TENANT'S INITIALS: __ LANDLORD'S INITIALS: __

7. LIMITATION ON TENANT'S INDEMNITY
--------------------------------
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Lease, Tenant
shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless from any loss, cost,
liability, damage and expense, including, but not limited to, penalties, fines
and actual attorneys' fees and costs, (collectively "Claims"), to any person,
property, or entity resulting from any breach of the Lease by Landlord or any
default by Landlord thereunder or from the negligence or the willful misconduct
of Landlord or its agents, employees, in connection with Landlord's activities
in the Project and/or the Building (except for damage to the Tenant improvements
and Tenant's personal property, fixtures, furniture and equipment in the
Premises as to which Tenant is required to obtain the requisite insurance
coverage) and Landlord hereby so indemnifies and saves Tenant harmless from any
such Claims. However, Tenant's agreement to indemnify and hold harmless pursuant
to Article 21 of the Lease, and the agreement by Landlord to indemnify and hold
Tenant harmless set forth above are not intended to, and shall not relieve any
insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by
Landlord or Tenant, respectively, pursuant to the provisions of the Lease to the
extent that such policies cover the results of such acts or conduct. The parties
hereby agree that if either party breaches this Rider provision by its failure
to carry required insurance, such failure shall automatically be deemed to be
the covenant and agreement by such party to self-insure said required coverage,
with full waiver of subrogation in favor of the other party. The parties further
agree that to the extent any damage or repair obligation of Tenant is covered by
insurance obtained by Landlord or would have been covered by insurance had
Landlord maintained the insurance required to be maintained by Landlord under
the Lease as part of the Project Operating Costs, but is not covered by
insurance obtained by Tenant, then Tenant shall be relieved of its indemnity
obligation up to the amount of the insurance proceeds which the Landlord
actually receives (or would have received had Landlord maintained insurance as
aforesaid).
8. RECIPROCAL INDEMNITY
--------------------
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord
hereby indemnifies and holds Tenant harmless from any loss, cost, liability,
damage or expense (including, but not limited to, penalties, fines, and
reasonable actual attorneys' fees and costs) to any person or property outside
of the Premises or unrelated to the Premises, (except if resulting from the sole
or joint and several negligent acts or omissions of Tenant or those of its
employees, licensees or agents) to the extent such loss, costs, liability,
damage or expenses are covered by the insurance obtained by Landlord. In the
event the Premises, the Building or the Project are damaged or destroyed and
such damage or destruction is covered by insurance' obtained by Landlord but not
covered by insurance obtained by Tenant, and further, that Tenant is not in
default hereunder and Tenant has fully complied with all insurance required to
be carried by Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall use the proceeds of its insurance
to repair the damage or destruction to the Premises, the Building and/or the
Project, subject to any rights either Landlord or Tenant may have to terminate
this Lease in the event such damage or destruction occurs.

TENANT'S INITIALS: __ LANDLORD'S INITIALS: __
9. RULES AND REGULATIONS
---------------------
Landlord agrees that the Rules and Regulations of the Project, attached to
and made a part of this Lease as Exhibit "D" shall not be changed or revised at
Landlord's will in a manner which materially interferes with the purposes
permitted under Tenant's Use Clause and Landlord agrees to give Tenant thirty
(30) days prior written notice of any changes to the Rules and Regulations.
10. NON-DISTURBANCE AGREEMENTS
--------------------------
Landlord also agrees (a) to provide Tenant with commercially reasonable
Non-Disturbance Agreements in favor of Tenant from any ground lessors, mortgage
holders or lien holders of Landlord in existence as of the date of this Lease on
or before ninety (90) days after Commencement Date, and (b) to provide Tenant
with commercially reasonable Non-Disturbance Agreements in favor of Tenant from
any ground lessors, mortgage holders or lien holders of Landlord who later come
into existence at any time during the term of the Lease in consideration of, and
as a condition precedent to, Tenant's agreement to be bound by Article 24 of the
Lease. Such Non-Disturbance Agreement(s) shall provide that such Holders shall
be responsible for fulfilling all of Landlord's obligations pursuant to the
Lease.
11. LANDLORD'S ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES

Provided that Tenant is not at the time in default hereunder, then
Landlord within ten (10) days after written request from Tenant, Landlord shall

the nature of any claim default. Any such statement may be relied upon by any
assignee, sublessee or lender. Landlord's failure to execute and deliver such

13. DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION

if the Premises or the portion of the Building or parking areas necessary for
Tenant's occupancy is damaged by fire, earthquake, act of God, the elements, or
other casualty, Landlord shall notify Tenant within thirty (30) days of said
casualty if Landlord, in its reasonable judgment, believes that the repairs will
take longer than sixty (60) days to complete, which notice shall include
Landlord's best estimate of the total time that said repairs will take to

shall have the right to terminate the Lease by providing Landlord written notice
of Tenant's election to terminate within thirty (30) days of Tenant's receipt of
the Estimate, in which case the Lease shall terminate as of the date of the
casualty.
14. CONSENTS

available to the Premises 24 hours per day, every day throughout the term, in
quantities sufficient for Tenant's normal business operations. Landlord shall
also provide to Tenant access to the Premises 24 hours per day, every day
throughout the term. In the event that Tenant consumes services or utilities in
excess of that usually supplied to the Premises for use of the Premises as
general office space, as reasonably determined by Landlord, and such services or
utilities are not separately metered or otherwise directly paid for by Tenant,
then Landlord may under such circumstances establish a monthly pro rata charge
for Tenant's excess use or consumption of such services and utilities.
Notwithstanding any provisions of Article 9 of the Lease to the contrary,
Landlord shall provide natural gas and electricity, including steam generator,
vacuum, reverse osmosis/deionized water treatment system, uninterrupted power
supply, and emergency generator to the Premises. Landlord, Tenant and Tenant's
second floor co-tenant, shall cooperate to establish fair and equitable methods
for the proration of second floor costs of the natural gas and electricity
supplied by Landlord. Such agreed upon methods shall be in writing and
incorporated within the Lease. If no such methods can be agreed upon, the costs
of such utilities shall be prorated by Landlord on a straight square-footage
basis; provided, however, in the event that said formula does not lead to a fair
and equitable proration because the second floor tenants do not use electricity
or other utilities in proportionally equal amounts, Landlord shall adjust said
formula as necessary to lead to such fair and equitable proration. Any such
proration shall be reviewed from time to time so that it accomplishes the
purposes intended hereby. In either case, the prorated costs of such utilities
shall be additional rent due under the Lease.
