AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Sublandlord and Subtenant agree as follows:
1. Subleased Premises. Subject to the terms of this Sublease, Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant, and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord the Premises in its entirety, together with the right to exercise, in common with Sublandlord and others entitled thereto, Sublandlord’s right to use the Common Areas (as defined in the Master Lease) of the Building and the Project under the Master Lease necessary or appropriate to Subtenant’s use of the Subleased Premises, subject to the terms of the Master Lease and any rules and regulations established from time to time by Master Landlord with respect to the use of such Common Areas. The parties hereto agree that the sublease of the Subleased Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and Subtenant covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Sublease to keep and perform each and all of such terms, covenants and conditions by it to be kept and performed and that this Sublease is made upon the condition of such performance. Sublandlord shall observe and perform for the benefit of Subtenant all of the obligations of “Tenant” under the Master Lease which are necessary and required to give Subtenant the benefits and rights provided by this Sublease, and which are not Subtenant’s obligations hereunder. Except as specifically set forth in this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Subleased Premises. Subtenant also acknowledges that neither Sublandlord nor any agent of Sublandlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Subleased Premises, the Building or the Project or with respect to the suitability of any of the foregoing for the conduct of Subtenant’s business, except as specifically set forth in this Sublease. The square footage of the Premises will not be re-measured at any time during the term of this Sublease.

2. Sublease Term.
2.1 Term. The term of this Sublease (the “Term”) shall be for the period commencing upon the earlier to occur (“Commencement Date”): (a) the date Subtenant commences business operations in any portion of the Subleased Premises or (b) October 1, 2021 (the “Target Commencement Date”) and ending on September 30, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”), unless this Sublease is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms or the Master Lease is sooner terminated pursuant to its terms; and provided, however, that in no event shall the Commencement Date occur before Subtenant’s receipt of the Master Landlord Consent (as defined in Section 21 below). Sublandlord shall submit the Sublease to Master Landlord within one business day following execution by Sublandlord and Subtenant and shall endeavor, in good faith, to obtain promptly the Master Landlord Consent on or before July 1, 2021, and Subtenant shall diligently cooperate with Sublandlord in all reasonable respects as may be required to obtain the Master Landlord Consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Subtenant is forced to delay its occupancy of the Subleased Premises for the conducting of business due to Force Majeure (as defined in Section 29.16 of the Master Lease and which, for purposes of this Sublease, includes an epidemic or pandemic) beyond the Target Commencement Date (an “Occupancy Delay”), the Delivery of the Subleased Premises to Subtenant and the Commencement Date shall be delayed for the number of days of such Occupancy Delay. In addition, if any new or amended order or declaration from state or local governmental authorities related to COVID-19 prohibits Subtenant from occupying or otherwise results in an inability of Subtenant to occupy the Subleased Premises after the Commencement Date (a “COVID Closure”), Subtenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent hereunder shall be abated one day for each day that Subtenant is unable to occupy the Subleased Premises. To clarify the foregoing, Subtenant agrees that there shall not be deemed any Occupancy Delay or COVID Closure hereunder (i) if the City and County of San Francisco is in the “orange” or “moderate” tier or in the “yellow” or “minimal” tier of risk described in the Blueprint for a Safer Economy (published at xxxxx00.xx.xxx/xxxxx-xxxxxxx) or (ii) if the City and County of San Francisco permits non-essential, indoor offices to open at 20% capacity or greater. In addition, if Subtenant is delayed in its initial occupancy or subsequently prohibited from occupying or otherwise unable to occupy the Premises as a result of any Occupancy Delay or COVID Closure, and such condition shall, in either case, continue for more than ninety (90) days after the Commencement Date, Sublandlord shall have the right to terminate this Sublease by written notice to Subtenant delivered before the end of such Occupancy Delay or COVID Closure and, this Sublease shall terminate on the date specified in Sublandlord’s termination notice (in no event shall such date be less than ten (10) business days following the date of Subtenant’s receipt of such notice), unless, within three (3) business days following Subtenant’s receipt of Sublandlord’s termination notice, Subtenant agrees in writing to waive its rights hereunder in the event of an Occupancy Delay and COVID Closure and, in the case of an Occupancy Delay, agrees that the Commencement Date shall be deemed to have occurred on January 1, 2022, and, in the case of a COVID Closure, agrees that Subtenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent shall recommence as of the termination date specified in Sublandlord’s termination notice.
2.2 Delivery Conditions. If, as of the date (as specified in advance in writing from Sublandlord to Subtenant) that Sublandlord would otherwise deliver possession of the Subleased Premises to Subtenant (“Delivery”), Subtenant has not delivered to Sublandlord the following (collectively, the “Delivery Conditions”): (a) the Prepaid Rent pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.3 below, (b) evidence of Subtenant’s procurement of all insurance coverage required hereunder, and (c) the Letter of Credit required pursuant to Section 4 below, then Sublandlord will have no obligation to deliver the Subleased Premises to Subtenant on such date, but the failure on the part of Sublandlord to so deliver the Subleased Premises to Subtenant in such event will not serve to delay the occurrence of the Commencement Date or the commencement of Subtenant’s obligations to pay Rent (defined below) hereunder.
2.3 Early Access. Provided that the Delivery Conditions are satisfied, Subtenant shall be permitted to enter the Subleased Premises upon receipt of the Master Landlord Consent following mutual execution of this Sublease (the “Early Access Date”) for the sole purpose of installing furniture, fixtures and equipment (including data and telephone lines and equipment) therein and otherwise readying the Subleased Premises for Subtenant’s occupancy, provided that Subtenant’s work in the Subleased Premises prior to the Commencement Date shall comply with the requirements of Section 9 below. Subtenant’s occupancy of the Subleased Premises before the Commencement Date shall be subject to all
2
of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Sublease, including Subtenant’s indemnity obligations set forth in Section 12 below, except that Sublandlord agrees that Subtenant’s obligation to pay Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be waived. Subtenant shall, however, pay the cost of all utilities and other services provided to the Subleased Premises prior to the Commencement Date that are required solely by reason of Subtenant’s early occupancy.
2.4 No Option to Extend. The parties hereby acknowledge that Subtenant has no right to extend the Term of this Sublease.
2.5 Acknowledgment of Commencement Date. Within five (5) business days following determination of the Commencement Date, Sublandlord shall deliver to Subtenant a written acknowledgment of the Commencement Date and Expiration Date in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (“Commencement Date Acknowledgement”). Subtenant shall execute and return (or, by notice to Sublandlord, reasonably object to) such acknowledgment within five (5) business days after receipt and, if Subtenant fails to do so within five (5) business days following notice of such failure to execute and return such acknowledgment, Subtenant shall be deemed to have executed and returned the acknowledgment without exception.
2.6 Sublease Year. For purposes of this Sublease, the term “Sublease Year’’ shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) calendar month period during the Term of this Sublease; provided, however, that the first Sublease Year shall commence on the Commencement Date of this Sublease and end on the last day of the month in which the first anniversary of such Commencement Date occurs (or if such Commencement Date is the first day of a calendar month, then the first Sublease Year shall commence on such Commencement Date and end on the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of such Commencement Date), and the second and each succeeding Sublease Year shall commence on the first day of the next calendar month; and further provided that the last Sublease Year shall end on the Expiration Date of this Sublease.
3. Rent.
3.1 Base Rent.
(a) Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the following amounts as base rent (“Base Rent”) for the Subleased Premises for each month during the Term, subject to the Rent Abatement pursuant to Section 3.4 below:
Period |
Monthly Rate per Rentable Square Foot (rounded to the nearest 100th of a dollar) |
Monthly Base Rent |
||||||
Sublease Year 1 |
$ | 4.58 | $ | 263,487.40 | ||||
Sublease Year 2 |
$ | 4.72 | $ | 271,541.60 | ||||
Sublease Year 3 |
$ | 4.86 | $ | 279,595.80 | ||||
Sublease Year 4 |
$ | 5.01 | $ | 288,225.30 |
(b) Base Rent and Additional Rent, as defined below, shall be paid in advance on or before the first (1st) day of each and every calendar month during the Term. If the Term does not begin on the first (1st) day of a calendar month or end on the last day of a month, the Base Rent for any partial month shall be prorated in the same manner that rent payable by Sublandlord is prorated under the Master Lease; and, if the Commencement Date is other than the first (1st) day of a calendar month, Subtenant will pay to Sublandlord on the Commencement Date a prorated payment of Base Rent reflecting
3
the partial calendar month in which the Term commences. Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be payable without notice or demand and without any deduction, offset, or abatement (except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Sublease), in lawful money of the United States of America. Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be paid directly to Sublandlord by ACH or wire transfer, at Tenant’s option, initially in accordance with the following instructions:
Account Name: ###
Account Number: ###
Branch: ###
IBAN/ABA: ###
SWIFT: ###
or by such other methods or to such other persons or at such other places as Sublandlord may reasonably designate in writing.
3.2 Additional Rent.
(a) If, for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Term, the Direct Expenses for such Expense Year exceed the Direct Expenses applicable to the Sublease Base Year (the “Excess”),then Subtenant shall, without deduction or right of offset, pay to Sublandlord, in advance, on or before the first (1st) day of each calendar month of such Expense Year, 17.64% (“Subtenant’s Share”) of such Excess in the manner set forth in Section 3.2(b) below. For purposes hereof, the “Sublease Base Year” shall be calendar year 2022. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount is due for such Excess for any portion of the Term of the Sublease occurring in calendar year 2021, and any commercial rent tax or gross receipts tax assessed by the City and County of San Francisco and payable by Subtenant shall be based solely on the Rent pursuant to this Sublease and not any rent payable by Sublandlord pursuant to the Master Lease nor any other gross receipts. In addition, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the amount of electrical costs charged by Master Landlord and applicable to the Subleased Premises (“Electrical Costs”) as Additional Rent pursuant to the terms of this Sublease.
(b) For each Expense Year, Subtenant’s monthly payments of Subtenant’s Share of the Excess, plus the Electrical Costs applicable to the Subleased Premises, shall be based on the estimates provided to Sublandlord by Master Landlord under the Master Lease, provided the actual Additional Rent payable by Subtenant pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be based on Master Landlord’s annual statement of Direct Expenses (“Annual Statement”) for the particular Expense Year. The provisions of this Section 3.2(b) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease.
(c) Subtenant shall have the right to request Sublandlord to perform an inspection of Master Landlord’s records as provided in Section 4.6 of the Master Lease, provided that Subtenant has requested Sublandlord to perform such audit at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the period to elect an audit, and Sublandlord shall notify Master Landlord prior to the expiration of such period. Following Subtenant’s timely request, Sublandlord shall, within the time period set forth in Section 4.6 of the Master Lease, perform such inspection utilizing a reputable certified public accountant selected by Sublandlord. Following the completion of such inspection, the amount of Direct Expenses due from Subtenant for such period covered by such inspection shall be reconciled in the same manner as set forth in Section 4.6 of the Master Lease. Subtenant shall reimburse Sublandlord for all costs and expenses incurred by Sublandlord to conduct such inspection; provided however, that, if Sublandlord receives a reimbursement from Master Landlord pursuant to Section 4.6 of the Master Lease for such inspection, Sublandlord shall credit Subtenant’s Share of such reimbursement against the next Rent payment due hereunder (or refund such amounts to Subtenant if no further Rent may become due from Subtenant).
(d) All amounts payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord hereunder, in addition to Base Rent, shall be deemed additional rent (“Additional Rent”). Subtenant shall only be responsible for such Additional Rent obligations arising on or after the Early Access Date; and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Sublease, Subtenant shall have no liability for any Additional Rent incurred as a result of the failure of Sublandlord, or anyone claiming by, through or under Sublandlord other than Subtenant, to perform any of the terms or obligations of the Master Lease, and not attributable to or reasonably allocable to Subtenant’s use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises. Base Rent and Additional Rent hereinafter collectively shall be referred to as “Rent”.
4
3.3 Prepaid Rent. Within five (5) business days of obtaining Master Landlord’s Consent, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord the sum of Two Hundred Sixty-Three Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Seven and 40/100ths Dollars ($263,487.40) (the “Prepaid Rent”), which shall constitute Base Rent for the first full calendar month of the Term which occurs after the expiration of the Rent Abatement Period (as defined below).
3.4 Abated Base Rent. Subtenant shall have no obligation to pay Base Rent or Excess for the Subleased Premises (the “Rent Abatement”) for the first six (6) months of the Term (the “Rent Abatement Period”). Sublandlord and Subtenant acknowledge that the aggregate amount of the Rent Abatement (as it relates to Base Rent) equals One Million Five Hundred Eighty Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-Four and 40/100 Dollars ($1,580,924.40), and that such amount shall be automatically applied by Sublandlord to the Base Rent payable during the Rent Abatement Period until such amount is exhausted. Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing Rent Abatement has been granted to Subtenant as additional consideration for entering into this Sublease, and for agreeing to pay the Rent and performing the terms and conditions otherwise required under this Sublease. If a Default (as defined in Section 16) by Subtenant occurs under this Sublease, or if this Sublease is terminated for any reason other than Sublandlord’s breach of this Lease, then the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Rent Abatement as of the date of such Default or termination, as the case may be, shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Term and the Rent Abatement applicable to the Rent Abatement Period shall be of no further force or effect.
4. Letter of Credit.
4.1 General Provisions. Within five (5) business days following receipt of the Consent, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord a standby, unconditional negotiable, irrevocable, transferable letter of credit (the “Letter of Credit) in the form of Exhibit E and containing the terms required herein, in the face amount of Eight Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($850,000.00) (the “Letter of Credit Amount”). The Letter of Credit shall be collateral for the full performance by Subtenant of all of its obligations under this Sublease and for all losses and damages that Sublandlord may suffer as a result of Subtenant’s failure to comply with one or more provisions of this Sublease, including any damages arising under California Civil Code § 1951.2 following termination of this Sublease. The Letter of Credit shall name Sublandlord as beneficiary, shall be issued (or confirmed) by a financial institution acceptable to Sublandlord in Sublandlord’s reasonable discretion (“Issuing Bank”), shall permit multiple and partial draws thereon, and shall otherwise be in form acceptable to Sublandlord in its sole discretion. The Issuing Bank shall have a branch in San Francisco, California, at which draws on the Letter of Credit will be accepted. Subtenant shall cause the Letter of Credit to be continuously maintained in effect (whether through replacement, renewal or extension) in the Letter of Credit Amount through the date (the “Final LC Expiration Date”) that is 60 days after the Expiration Date. If the Letter of Credit held by Sublandlord expires before the Final LC Expiration Date (whether by reason of a stated expiration date or a notice of termination or non-renewal given by the Issuing Bank), Subtenant shall deliver a new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension to Sublandlord not later than 90 days before the expiration date of the Letter of Credit then held by Sublandlord. In addition, if, at any time before the Final LC Expiration Date, the financial institution that issued (or confirmed) the Letter of Credit held by Sublandlord fails to meet the Minimum Financial Requirement (defined below), then, within five (5) business days after Sublandlord’s demand, Subtenant shall deliver to Sublandlord, in replacement of such Letter of Credit, a new Letter of Credit issued (or confirmed) by a financial institution that meets the Minimum Financial Requirement and is otherwise acceptable to Sublandlord in Sublandlord’s reasonable discretion, whereupon Sublandlord shall return to Subtenant the Letter of Credit that is being replaced. For purposes hereof, a financial institution shall be deemed to meet the “Minimum Financial Requirement” on a particular date if and only if, as of such date, such financial institution (i) has not been placed into receivership by the FDIC; and (ii) has a financial strength reasonably approved by Sublandlord and at a minimum having a long term issuer rating from Standard & Poor’s Professional Rating Service of A or a comparable rating from Xxxxx’x Professional
5
Rating Service. Any new Letter of Credit or certificate of renewal or extension (a “Renewal or Replacement LC”) shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 4, shall be irrevocable, transferable and shall remain in effect (or be automatically renewable) through the Final LC Expiration Date upon the same terms as the Letter of Credit that is expiring or being replaced.
4.2 Drawings under Letter of Credit. If Subtenant fails to pay Rent or other charges due hereunder or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Sublease, then Sublandlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy provided in this Sublease or by applicable laws, draw on the Letter of Credit and use all or part of the proceeds as provided in Section 4.3 below. In addition, if Subtenant fails to furnish a Renewal or Replacement LC complying with all of the provisions of Section 4.1 when required under Section 4.1, Sublandlord may draw upon the Letter of Credit and hold the proceeds thereof in accordance with the terms of Section 4.3 below.
4.3 Use of Proceeds by Sublandlord. The proceeds of the Letter of Credit shall constitute Sublandlord’s sole and separate property (and not Subtenant’s property or the property of Subtenant’s bankruptcy estate) and Sublandlord may, immediately upon any draw (and without notice to Subtenant), apply or offset the proceeds of the Letter of Credit against (i) any Rent payable by Subtenant under this Sublease that is not paid when due; (ii) all losses and damages that Sublandlord has suffered or that Sublandlord reasonably estimates that it may suffer as a result of Subtenant’s failure to comply with one or more provisions of this Sublease, including any damages arising under California Civil Code § 1951.2 following termination of this Sublease; (iii) any costs incurred by Sublandlord in connection with this Sublease (including attorneys’ fees) that Subtenant is obligated to pay or reimburse; and (iv) any other reasonable amount that Sublandlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Subtenant’s failure to comply with this Sublease and that Subtenant is obligated to pay or reimburse under this Sublease or under applicable laws. Provided that Subtenant has performed all of its obligations under this Sublease, Sublandlord shall pay to Subtenant, within 45 days after the Final LC Expiration Date, the amount of any proceeds of the Letter of Credit received by Sublandlord and not applied as provided above; provided, however, that if, before the expiration of such 45-day period, a voluntary petition is filed by Subtenant, or an involuntary petition is filed against Subtenant by any of Subtenant’s creditors, under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, then such payment shall not be required until either all preference issues relating to payments under this Sublease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed, in each case pursuant to a final court order not subject to appeal or any stay pending appeal.
4.4 Additional Covenants of Subtenant. If, for any reason, the amount of the Letter of Credit becomes less than the Letter of Credit Amount, Subtenant shall, within five (5) days thereafter, either provide Sublandlord with a cash Security Deposit equal to such difference, or provide Sublandlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency (or a replacement letter of credit in the total Letter of Credit Amount), and any such additional (or replacement) letter of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Section 4.4, and if Subtenant fails to comply with the foregoing, notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Sublease, such failure shall constitute a Default by Subtenant with no further opportunity to cure. Subtenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the Letter of Credit or any part thereof and that neither Sublandlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. The use, application or retention of the Letter of Credit, or any portion thereof, by Sublandlord shall not prevent Sublandlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Sublease or by any applicable laws, it being intended that Sublandlord shall not first be required to proceed against the Letter of Credit, and shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Sublandlord may otherwise be entitled. Subtenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Sublandlord of the proceeds of the Letter of Credit, either prior to or following a “draw” by Sublandlord of any portion of the Letter of Credit, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Subtenant and Sublandlord as to Sublandlord’s right to draw upon the Letter of Credit, provided that nothing herein shall affect Subtenant’s rights and remedies after the Letter of Credit is drawn if Subtenant disputes Sublandlord’s right to draw on the Letter of Credit or to apply any portion of the proceeds thereof. No condition or term of this Sublease shall be deemed to render the Letter of Credit conditional to justify the issuer of the Letter of Credit in failing to honor a drawing upon such Letter of Credit in a timely manner. Subtenant agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Letter of Credit constitutes a separate
6
and independent contract between Sublandlord and the Issuing Bank, (ii) Subtenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (iii) Subtenant has no property interest whatsoever in the Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof, and (iv) in the event Subtenant becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, neither Subtenant, any trustee, nor Subtenant’s bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Sublandlord’s claim and/or rights to the Letter of Credit and/or the proceeds thereof under the provisions of this Sublease by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
4.5 Nature of Letter of Credit. Sublandlord and Subtenant (i) acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Letter of Credit or any renewal thereof, any substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under California Civil Code § 1950.7, as it may be amended or succeeded, or any other law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context (“Security Deposit Laws”); (ii) acknowledge and agree that the Letter of Credit (including any renewal thereof, any substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit and shall not be subject to the Security Deposit Laws; (iii) any unused proceeds shall constitute the property of Sublandlord and need not be segregated from Sublandlord’s other assets; and (iv) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations either party may now or, in the future, will have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Subtenant hereby waives the provisions of California Civil Code § 1950.7 and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (A) establish the time frame by which Sublandlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (B) provide that Sublandlord may claim from the security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by Subtenant or to clean the Premises, it being agreed that Sublandlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified above in this Section 4.5 and/or those sums reasonably necessary to compensate Sublandlord for any loss or damage caused by Subtenant’s breach of this Sublease or the acts or omission of Subtenant or any of its employees, agents, contractors or invitees, including any damages Sublandlord suffers following termination of this Sublease.
5. Delivery and Acceptance.
5.1 Condition of Subleased Premises. Sublandlord, at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense, shall deliver the Subleased Premises to Subtenant in a professionally-cleaned condition, with the carpet professionally cleaned and all stains removed prior to the Early Access Date, with all of Sublandlord’s signage or branding removed and patched and painted, and wired (low-voltage and high voltage) to existing workstations. If Sublandlord fails to deliver possession of the Subleased Premises to Subtenant on or before the Target Commencement Date set forth in Section 2.1 for any reason whatsoever, then this Sublease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Sublandlord be liable to Subtenant for any loss or damage. Subtenant acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to thoroughly inspect the condition of the Subleased Premises, and, except as expressly provided in this Section 5, Subtenant agrees that it is leasing the Subleased Premises on an “AS IS” basis, with all defects, without any representation or warranty by Sublandlord or its agents as to the condition of the Subleased Premises or their fitness for Subtenant’s use, and subject to all applicable zoning, municipal, county and state laws, ordinances and regulations governing and regulating the use of the Subleased Premises, and any easements, covenants or restrictions of record. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.2 and Section 5.3 below, by taking possession of the Subleased Premises, Subtenant conclusively shall be deemed to have accepted the Subleased Premises in their as-is, then-existing condition, without any warranty whatsoever of Sublandlord with respect thereto, and Subtenant acknowledges that it has satisfied itself that the Subleased Premises are suitable for its intended use.
5.2 Systems Warranty Period. If, within thirty (30) days following the Commencement Date (the “Systems Warranty Period”), Subtenant notifies Sublandlord in writing that any of the existing HVAC, electrical, lighting, fire sprinkler, plumbing or window systems serving and within the Premises (“Premises Systems”) require repair or replacement, then, so long as such repairs or replacement are Sublandlord’s responsibility pursuant to Article 7 of the Master Lease, and provided that such repairs or replacements are not necessitated by (a) the negligence or willful misconduct of Subtenant or any Subtenant Parties (as defined below) or (b) any defects or deficiencies in any Alterations performed by or for Subtenant or any Subtenant Parties, Sublandlord shall promptly perform such repairs or replacements at no cost or expense to Subtenant. If Subtenant does not give Sublandlord written notice of any such deficiency within the Systems Warranty Period, the correction of such deficiency shall be governed by the provisions of Article 7 of the Master Lease and Section 8 below.
7
5.3 Compliance with Laws. To the best of Sublandlord’s knowledge, without any duty of inquiry or investigation, Sublandlord represents and warrants to Subtenant that the Building and the Subleased Premises comply with all Applicable Laws, including all Environmental Laws (as defined in the Master Lease), the Americans with Disabilities Act, and Title 24 of the California Energy Code, and that Sublandlord has satisfied all of Sublandlord’s obligations set forth in Article 24 of the Master Lease. If, at any time, it is determined that Sublandlord breached the foregoing representation and warranty with respect to the Subleased Premises, Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant for any damages, but Sublandlord, at no cost to Subtenant, shall, as Subtenant’s sole remedy, perform such work or take such other action as may be necessary to cure such violation, but only to the extent that such violation materially and adversely affects Subtenant’s use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord shall have the right to contest any alleged violation in good faith, including, without limitation, the right to apply for and obtain a waiver or deferment of compliance, the right to assert any and all defenses allowed by law, and the right to appeal any decisions, judgments or rulings to the fullest extent permitted by law, and Sublandlord’s obligation to perform work or take such other action to cure a violation under this Section 5.2 shall apply after the exhaustion of any and all rights to appeal or contest. If, at any time, it is determined that Sublandlord breached the foregoing representation and warranty with respect to the portion of the Building outside of the Subleased Premises, Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant for any damages, but Sublandlord, at no cost to Subtenant, shall, as Subtenant’s sole remedy, use commercially reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to cause Master Landlord to comply with its obligations under the Master Lease, provided that in no event will this sentence be construed to require Sublandlord to commence any litigation or similar proceeding against Master Landlord.
6. Use and Occupancy.
6.1 Use. The Subleased Premises shall be used and occupied by Subtenant and all Subtenant Parties only for the permitted uses specified in Article 5 of the Master Lease. Sublandlord shall request that Master Landlord permit Subtenant to use at Subtenant’s convenience the Building stairwells between Subtenant’s floors as internal stairs, provided that making such request shall be Sublandlord’s sole responsibility with respect to Subtenant’s use of the Building stairwells, and if the Master Landlord is unwilling to permit Subtenant’s use of the Building stairwells, the same shall not in any way affect this Sublease or any of Subtenant’s obligations hereunder.
6.2 Compliance with Master Lease. Subtenant will occupy the Subleased Premises in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease and will not suffer to be done, or omit to do, any act which may result in a violation of or a default under the Master Lease, or render Sublandlord liable for any damage, charge or expense thereunder. Any other provision in this Sublease to the contrary notwithstanding, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as Rent hereunder any and all sums which Sublandlord may be required to pay to Master Landlord arising out of a request by Subtenant for, or the use by Subtenant of, additional or over-standard Building services (for example, but not by way of limitation, charges associated with after-hour HVAC usage and over-standard electrical charges).
6.3 Master Landlord’s Obligations. Subtenant agrees that Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any of the covenants, agreements or obligations of Master Landlord under the Master Lease, and, insofar as any of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Sublandlord hereunder are required to be performed under the Master Lease by Master Landlord thereunder, Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that Sublandlord shall be entitled to look to Master Landlord for such performance. In addition, Sublandlord shall have no obligation to perform any repairs or any other obligation of Master Landlord under the Master Lease, nor shall any representations or warranties made by Master Landlord under the Master Lease be deemed to have been made by Sublandlord. Sublandlord shall not be responsible for any failure or interruption, for any reason whatsoever, of the services or facilities that may be appurtenant to or supplied at the Building by Master Landlord or otherwise, including, without limitation, heat, air conditioning, ventilation, life-safety, water, electricity, elevator service and cleaning service, if any; and no failure to

furnish, or interruption of, any such services or facilities shall give rise to any (a) abatement, diminution or reduction of Subtenant’s obligations under this Sublease, except as expressly provided below, or (b) liability on the part of Sublandlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to secure such performance upon Subtenant’s request to Sublandlord to do so, provided that in no event will this sentence be construed to require Sublandlord to commence any litigation or similar proceeding against Master Landlord. In no event shall Subtenant have any right to directly enforce Master Landlord’s obligations under the Master Lease. If and to the extent that Sublandlord’s rental obligation is abated or reduced pursuant to the Master Lease due to a casualty, condemnation or other interference with the use of the Premises including abatements under Section 6.4 of the Master Lease, the Rent hereunder shall be abated or reduced in the same proportion and period as the abatement or reduction under the Master Lease. Subtenant shall not be entitled to any further abatement or reduction in Rent.
7. Janitorial Services. All cleaning and janitorial services for the Premises, including regular removal of trash and debris and the washing of all windows in the Premises, all in a manner consistent with Master Landlord’s commercially reasonable janitorial standards established for the Building, shall be performed and obtained at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense exclusively by or through Master Landlord’s janitorial contractors. Prior to the Commencement Date, Subtenant shall contract directly with Master Landlord’s janitorial contractors for the Project and the janitorial contract for the same must be approved in writing by Master Landlord in advance. Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that Master Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to change its designated janitorial services provider for the Building, in which event Subtenant shall terminate its contract with Master Landlord’s previously designated janitorial services provider and enter into a contract with Master Landlord’s newly designated janitorial services provider. Further, Master Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Premises for purposes of confirming that Subtenant is cleaning the Premises as required by this Section 7, and to require Subtenant to provide additional cleaning, if necessary. In the event Subtenant shall fail to provide any of the services described in this Section 7 within five (5) business days after notice from Master Landlord or Sublandlord, which notice shall not be required in the event of an emergency, then Master Landlord or Sublandlord shall have the right to provide such services and any charge or cost incurred by Master Landlord or Sublandlord in connection therewith shall be deemed Additional Rent due and payable by Subtenant upon receipt by Subtenant of a written statement of cost. Failure of Subtenant to comply with any one or more of the foregoing provisions shall be deemed to be a default under this Sublease.
8. Repairs. The parties acknowledge and agree that, except as expressly provided in this Sublease, (a) Subtenant is subleasing the Subleased Premises on an “as is” basis, (b) Sublandlord has made no representations or warranties with respect to the condition of the Subleased Premises as of the Commencement Date, and (c) Sublandlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to make or pay the cost of any alterations, improvements, or repairs to the Subleased Premises, including any improvement or repair required to comply with any law, regulation, building code or ordinance (including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990). Master Landlord shall be solely responsible for performance of any repairs required to be performed by Master Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease. Notwithstanding any provision of this Sublease to the contrary, at Sublandlord’s option, or if Subtenant fails to commence to make repairs or replacements to the Subleased Premises pursuant to Article 7 of the Master Lease within five (5) business days following notice from Sublandlord, Sublandlord may, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, in which event, within ten (10) days following demand, and Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord the cost thereof, plus an additional fifteen percent (15%) to reimburse Sublandlord for overhead, general conditions, fees and other costs or expenses arising from Sublandlord’s involvement with such repairs and replacements.
9. Alterations. No alterations or improvements shall be made to the Subleased Premises, except in accordance with the Master Lease, and with the prior written consent of both Master Landlord and Sublandlord, which consent, in the case of Sublandlord, shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Subtenant shall not be obligated to remove any alterations or improvements installed by or on behalf of Subtenant unless Master Landlord requires such removal in accordance with the Master Lease.
9
10. Assignment and Subletting. Subtenant shall not assign this Sublease or further sublet all or any part of the Subleased Premises, except subject to and in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the Master Lease, and Sublandlord shall have the same rights with respect to assignment and sub-subleasing as Master Landlord has under the Master Lease, except that Sublandlord shall not have any right of recapture with respect to the Subleased Premises unless Subtenant proposes to further sublet the entire Subleased Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between Sublandlord and Subtenant, the parties acknowledge and agree that Section 14.8 of the Master Lease (Deemed Consent Transfers) is incorporated herein by reference pursuant to Section 20.2 below, subject, however, to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 20.3(i) below. Subtenant shall pay all fees and costs payable to Master Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease, as well as all of Sublandlord’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs relating to any proposed assignment, sub-sublease or transfer by Subtenant of the Subleased Premises or Subtenant’s interest in this Sublease, regardless of whether any consent is required or, if required, is granted.
11. Insurance. Subtenant shall obtain and keep in full force and effect, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense during the Term, the insurance required to be carried by Sublandlord under the Master Lease. Subtenant shall name Master Landlord and Sublandlord as additional insureds under its liability insurance policies. Subtenant shall provide Sublandlord and Master Landlord with certificates of insurance evidencing the insurance required to be carried by Subtenant hereunder as a condition to Subtenant’s being granted permission to enter the Subleased Premises, and Subtenant’s failure to provide evidence of the required insurance coverage shall not delay the Commencement Date.
12. Indemnity.
12.1 Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.1 of the Master Lease (as the same is incorporated herein by reference pursuant to Section 20 below), Subtenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless Master Landlord, Sublandlord and their respective directors, officers, trustees, partners, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (collectively, “Sublandlord Indemnitees”) from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Claims”) arising out of or in connection with the following: (a) any matter for which Master Landlord asserts a claim for indemnity pursuant to the Master Lease based upon the act, omission, or negligence of Subtenant or any person or entity claiming through or under Subtenant, or of any of their respective agents, employees, contractors, sub-subtenants, licensees, invitees, or visitors (“Subtenant Parties”), or (b) any failure by Subtenant to surrender the Subleased Premises at the end of the Term in the required condition, including, but not limited to, all rent and damages payable to Master Landlord pursuant to Article 16 of the Master Lease by reason of Subtenant’s failure to so surrender the Subleased Premises; provided, however, Subtenant shall not be obligated to indemnify any Sublandlord Indemnitees against any Claims (1) to the extent it is ultimately determined that the Claims resulted from the negligence of willful misconduct of such Sublandlord Indemnitee and are not covered by the insurance required to be carried by Subtenant hereunder, or (2) to the extent such indemnity is prohibited by applicable law. Should Sublandlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought against Subtenant for which Subtenant’s indemnity obligation is applicable, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord its reasonable and actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including its actual professional fees such as appraisers’, accountants’ and attorneys’ fees. Subtenant’s obligations pursuant to this Section are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any indemnity or other similar obligations in the Master Lease for which Subtenant is responsible pursuant to Section 22 below, provided that, in the event of any inconsistency between this Section 12 and the comparable provisions of the Master Lease, Subtenant and Sublandlord agree that, as between Subtenant and Sublandlord, the provisions of this Section 12.1 shall govern. Further, Subtenant’s agreement to indemnify Sublandlord pursuant to this Section 12.1 is not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried pursuant to the provisions of this Sublease, to the extent such policies cover, or if carried, would have covered the matters, subject to Subtenant’s indemnification obligations; nor shall they supersede any inconsistent agreement of the parties set forth in any other provision of this Sublease. The provisions of this Section 12.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease with respect to any claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination.
10
12.2 Sublandlord shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subtenant and their respective directors, officers, trustees, partners, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (collectively, the “Subtenant Indemnitees”) from and against any and all Claims, including, but not limited to, Claims for injury or damage to persons or property, arising out of or in connection with: (a) any causes in, on or about the Subleased Premises occurring prior to the Early Access Date; (b) the use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises by Sublandlord or any other person claiming under Sublandlord prior to the Early Access Date; (c) any breach, violation or non-performance by Sublandlord or any person claiming under Sublandlord or the employees, agents, contractors of Sublandlord or any such person of any term, covenant or provision of this Sublease or the Master Lease, or (d) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord or any person claiming under Sublandlord, or the contractors, agents or employees of Sublandlord or any such person in, on or about the Subleased Premises. Sublandlord’s agreement to indemnify Subtenant pursuant to this Section 12.2 is not intended to and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Sublandlord pursuant to the provisions of this Sublease, to the extent such policies cover the matters subject to Sublandlord’s indemnification obligations; nor shall they supersede any inconsistent agreement of the parties set forth in any other provision of this Sublease. The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease with respect to any claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination.
13. Release and Waiver of Subrogation. Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant, nor shall Subtenant be entitled to terminate this Sublease or to xxxxx Rent for any reason, including: (a) failure or interruption of any utility system or service; (b) failure of Master Landlord to maintain the Subleased Premises as may be required under the Master Lease; or (c) penetration of water into or onto any portion of the Subleased Premises; provided, however, that if and to the extent that Sublandlord’s rental obligation is abated or reduced pursuant to the Master Lease due to a casualty, condemnation, service interruption, or other interference with the use of the Premises, the Rent hereunder shall be abated or reduced in the same proportion and period as the abatement or reduction under the Master Lease. The obligations of Sublandlord shall not constitute the personal obligations of the officers, directors, trustees, partners, joint venturers, members, owners, stockholders, or other principals or representatives of the business entity. Subtenant releases Master Landlord and Sublandlord, and their respective employees, agents, successors, and assigns from all liability for damage to any property that is caused by or results from a risk which is actually insured against, or which is required to be insured against under the Sublease or the Master Lease. The waivers of subrogation pursuant to Section 10.3.2.4 of the Master Lease shall apply as between Sublandlord and Subtenant. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall cause each insurance policy obtained by it pursuant to this Sublease or the Master Lease to provide that the insurer waives any rights of subrogation that such insurers may have against the other party to this Sublease or Master Landlord, and agree to look solely to, and seek recovery only from, their respective insurance carriers in the event of a Claim to the extent that such coverage is agreed to be provided under this Sublease.
14. Casualty and Condemnation. Notwithstanding any provision of the Master Lease to the contrary, Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that, if the Premises suffers damage following a casualty such that, under the terms of the Master Lease, Sublandlord would have the right to terminate the Master Lease, Sublandlord shall notify Subtenant of such fact in writing (a “Casualty Notice”) and Subtenant shall have the right, exercisable within ten (10) days after receipt of the Casualty Notice, to elect to terminate this Sublease, time being of the essence. If Subtenant fails to terminate this Sublease within such ten (10) day period, then the Sublease shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. If the Master Lease imposes on Sublandlord (as “Tenant” under the Master Lease) the obligation to repair or restore leasehold improvements or alterations in the Subleased Premises, and if Subtenant will maintain property insurance on such improvements or alterations pursuant to Section 11 above, Subtenant shall be responsible for repair or restoration of such leasehold improvements or alterations as and to the extent required by the Master Lease.
15. Signage. Sublandlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make arrangements with Master Landlord to provide Subtenant with permission to install, at Subtenant’s sole expense, identification signage listing Subtenant’s name and suite number in the lobby of the Building, in the elevator lobbies, on the floors in which the Subleased Premises are located, and at the entrance of the Subleased
11
Premises, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Master Lease. Any signage shall be subject to the signage provisions of the Master Lease; provided, however, that Subtenant acknowledges that (a) this Sublease, and any incorporation of the Master Lease into this Sublease, does not bind Master Landlord and (b) Sublandlord’s approval of any signage is conditioned upon Sublandlord’s obtaining the approval of Master Landlord. Prior to the Commencement Date, Sublandlord shall remove its current signage and branding from the Premises and repair any damage caused by such removal.
16. Default. It shall constitute a “Default” hereunder if Subtenant fails to timely perform any obligation hereunder (including the obligation to pay Rent), or any obligation under the Master Lease which has been incorporated herein by reference, and, in each instance, Subtenant has not remedied such failure (a) in the case of any monetary default, within three (3) business days after delivery of written notice from Sublandlord and (b) in the case of any other default, within twenty (20) calendar days after delivery of written notice from Sublandlord or, if such failure cannot be cured within such twenty (20) day period, Subtenant fails within such twenty (20) day period to commence and thereafter diligently and continuously proceed with all actions necessary to cure such failure as soon as reasonably possible, provided that, for the avoidance of any ambiguity with respect to Subtenant’s time for performance, the time periods provided for in the Master Lease for performance of any act, condition or covenant, or the exercise of any right, remedy or option, are amended for the purposes of this Sublease by shortening the time for Subtenant to perform in each instance by five (5) business days, as appropriate, so that notices may be given, demands made or any act, condition or covenant performed, or any right, remedy or option hereunder exercised, by Sublandlord within the time period relating thereto contained in the Master Lease, however in no event shall Subtenant have less than two (2) business days to perform, unless Sublandlord promptly delivered such notice to Subtenant and the same would result in a Default under the Master Lease. The notice periods provided herein are in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice periods provided by law.
17. Remedies.
17.1 Generally. In the event of any Default by Subtenant, Sublandlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Sublandlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or more of the remedies provided pursuant to Section 19.2 of the Master Lease, and all other rights and remedies available at law and in equity. Sublandlord may resort to its remedies cumulatively or in the alternative, and without any notice or demand whatsoever.
17.2 Right to Cure Defaults. Without limiting the provisions of Section 17.1 above, if Subtenant fails to pay any sum of money under this Sublease or fails to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, then Sublandlord may, but shall not be obligated to after passage of any applicable notice and cure periods, make such payment or perform such act. All such sums paid, and all reasonable costs and expenses of performing any such act, shall be deemed Additional Rent payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord upon demand, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate (as defined in Article 25 of the Master Lease) from the date of the expenditure until repaid.
17.3 No Waiver. Sublandlord may accept Subtenant’s payments without waiving any rights under the Sublease, including rights under a previously served notice of default. No payment by Subtenant or receipt by Sublandlord of a lesser amount than any installment of rent due or other sums shall be deemed as other than a payment on account of the amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction; and Sublandlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice of Sublandlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or other sum or pursue any other remedy provided in this Sublease, at law or in equity. If Sublandlord accepts payments after serving a notice of default, Sublandlord may nevertheless commence and pursue an action to enforce rights and remedies under the previously served notice of default without giving Subtenant any further notice or demand. Furthermore, Sublandlord’s acceptance of rent from Subtenant when Subtenant is holding over without express written consent does not convert Subtenant’s tenancy from a tenancy at sufferance to a month-to-month tenancy. No waiver of any provision of this Sublease shall be implied by any failure of Sublandlord to enforce any remedy for the violation of that provision, even if that violation continues or is repeated. Any waiver by Sublandlord of any provision of this
12
Sublease must be in writing. Such waiver shall affect only the provisions specified and only for the time and in the manner stated in the writing. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by Sublandlord shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver thereof by Sublandlord. No act or conduct of Sublandlord, including the acceptance of keys to the Subleased Premises shall constitute acceptance or the surrender of the Subleased Premises by Subtenant before the Expiration Date. Only written notice from Sublandlord to Subtenant of acceptance shall constitute such acceptance or surrender of the Subleased Premises. Sublandlord’s consent to or approval of any act by Subtenant that requires Sublandlord’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Sublandlord’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Subtenant.
17.4 Sublandlord Default. Sublandlord will be in default of this Sublease if Sublandlord fails or refuses to perform any obligation, covenant, or agreement pursuant to the Sublease or Master Lease, and this failure or refusal continues for twenty (20) days after Subtenant or Master Landlord (as applicable) notifies Sublandlord of such failure. If such failure cannot be cured within such twenty (20) day period, Sublandlord fails within such twenty (20) day period to commence and thereafter diligently and continuously proceed with all actions necessary to cure such failure as soon as reasonably possible). In the event of a default by Sublandlord, Subtenant may, at its option, pursue any remedy available to Subtenant at law or in equity.
18. Surrender. Prior to expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease, Subtenant shall peaceably surrender the Subleased Premises and appurtenances to Sublandlord in broom-clean condition and in as good condition as when Subtenant takes possession on the Commencement Date, including the repair of any damage to the Subleased Premises caused by the removal of any personal property or trade fixtures from the Subleased Premises by Subtenant (or anyone claiming by, through or under Subtenant) or any of their respective employees, agents or contractors, except for reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Master Landlord under the Master Lease and damage or loss caused by casualty or condemnation for which Subtenant is not responsible to repair pursuant to Article 11 of the Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant shall not be obligated to repair any leasehold improvements existing in the Subleased Premises as of the Early Access Date, except to the extent such repairs are required to be performed by Subtenant pursuant to the incorporation of Article 7 of the Master Lease hereunder. Subtenant shall remove any alterations or improvements constructed or installed by or on behalf of Subtenant or any Subtenant Party that are required to be removed pursuant to the Master Lease or this Sublease, except for Cosmetic Alterations and any existing or additional low-voltage cabling installed by or on behalf of Subtenant or any Subtenant Party. For purposes of clarity, the parties acknowledge and agree that Subtenant shall not be required to remove any leasehold improvements existing in the Subleased Premises on the Commencement Date nor shall Subtenant be required to remove any leasehold improvements installed or constructed in the Premises after the Commencement Date, including but not limited to any workstations and benching, unless required by Master Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease. If the Subleased Premises are not so surrendered, then Subtenant shall be liable to Sublandlord for all reasonable costs incurred by Sublandlord in returning the Subleased Premises to the required condition, including costs incurred due to any resultant holdover under the Master Lease, plus interest thereon at the Interest Rate. Without limiting the foregoing, Subtenant acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 8.5 of the Master Lease, the Master Landlord may require Sublandlord to remove certain of the leasehold improvements existing in the Subleased Premises on the Commencement Date, including any ventilation systems located in any kitchen within the Premises and any showers installed in the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant. Unless Master Landlord waives the requirement that such leasehold improvements be removed, Subtenant agrees to allow Sublandlord reasonable access to the Subleased Premises during the last three (3) months of the Term to perform such removal work, and any such entry into the Subleased Premises by Sublandlord shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Article 27 of the Master Lease, except that Subtenant shall cooperate with Sublandlord as may be reasonably necessary to accommodate the timely completion of such removal work prior to the end of the Term.
19. Intentionally Omitted.
20. Master Lease and Other Sublease Terms.
13
20.1 Subject to Master Lease.
(a) This Sublease is and shall be at all times subject and subordinate to the Master Lease. Subtenant acknowledges that Subtenant has reviewed and is familiar with all of the terms, agreements, covenants and conditions of the Master Lease (except items which have been redacted by Sublandlord). During the Term and for all periods subsequent thereto with respect to obligations which have arisen prior to the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease, Subtenant agrees to perform and comply with, for the benefit of Sublandlord and Master Landlord, the obligations of “Tenant” under the Master Lease which pertain to the Subleased Premises or this Sublease, except for those provisions of the Master Lease which are excluded from incorporation as set forth below or directly contradicted by this Sublease, in which event the terms of this Sublease shall control over the Master Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Sublease, in the event the Master Lease is terminated for any reason other than the default of Sublandlord, this Sublease shall terminate simultaneously with such termination without any liability of Sublandlord to Subtenant; provided, however, that Sublandlord shall not voluntarily terminate the Master Lease except pursuant to a right of termination arising out of casualty or condemnation expressly set forth in the Master Lease.
(b) Sublandlord represents and warrants to Subtenant that (i) Exhibit B is a true, correct and complete (other than redactions as shown) copy of the Master Lease, (ii) the Master Lease is in full force and effect, and (iii) Sublandlord has not delivered to Master Landlord or received from Master Landlord any notice of default under the Master Lease that remains uncured, and, to Sublandlord’s actual knowledge, without any duty of inquiry or investigation, no event has occurred or circumstance exists which, with the delivery of notice, the passage of time or both, would constitute a material breach or material default of the Master Lease. Sublandlord shall not: (1) surrender nor terminate the Master Lease prior to the Expiration Date, except as expressly permitted under the Master Lease and this Sublease, or (2) take any action, the result of which would adversely affect Subtenant’s rights or obligations under this Sublease or with respect to the Subleased Premises, without, in each instance, obtaining Subtenant’s prior written consent in Subtenant’s sole discretion.
(c) So long as this Sublease is in full force and effect, Subtenant shall be entitled to the benefit of Master Landlord’s obligations and agreements to furnish utilities and other services to the Subleased Premises and to repair and maintain the Common Areas, roof, building systems, and all of the other obligations of Master Landlord under the Master Lease.
20.2 Incorporation of Terms of Master Lease. The terms and conditions of this Sublease shall include all of the terms of the Master Lease that relate to the Subleased Premises or Subtenant’s use or occupancy of the Building or the Subleased Premises and such terms are incorporated into this Sublease as if fully set forth herein, except for those provisions of the Master Lease which are excluded from incorporation as set forth below in Section 20.3 or are inconsistent with or contradicted by the express provisions of this Sublease, in which event the terms of this Sublease shall control over the Master Lease. Therefore, for purposes of this Sublease, each reference in the incorporated sections of the Master Lease to (a) the “Lease” shall be deemed a reference to “Sublease”; (b) to the “Premises” shall be deemed a reference to the “Subleased Premises”; and (c) to “Landlord” and “Tenant” shall be deemed a reference to “Sublandlord” and “Subtenant”, respectively.
20.3 Modifications and Exclusions. For the purposes of incorporation herein, the terms of the Master Lease are subject to the following additional modifications:
(a) Any waiver, non-liability, release, indemnity or hold harmless provision in the Master Lease for the benefit of Master Landlord shall, for the purpose of incorporation by reference in this Sublease, be deemed to inure to the benefit of Sublandlord, Master Landlord and any other person intended to be benefited by said provision, except to the extent such provision is excluded from incorporation as set forth below in Section 20.3(b), and except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Master Landlord or Sublandlord.
14
(b) Any right of Master Landlord under the Master Lease of access or inspection shall be deemed to inure to the benefit of Sublandlord and Master Landlord.
(c) In all provisions of the Master Lease requiring “Tenant” to designate Master Landlord as an additional or named insured on any insurance policy, Subtenant shall be required to so designate Master Landlord, Sublandlord and any individual, party or entity as required by Master Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease.
(d) Whenever in the Master Lease a time is specified for the giving of any notice or the making of any demand by the “Tenant” to Master Landlord thereunder, such time is hereby changed, for the purpose of this Sublease only, by adding three (3) business days thereto. It is the purpose and intent of the preceding sentence to provide Sublandlord with time within which to transmit to Master Landlord any notices or demands received from Subtenant.
(e) With respect to work, services, repairs, restoration, insurance, indemnities, representations, warranties or the performance of any other obligation of Master Landlord under the Master Lease, the sole obligation of Sublandlord is set forth above in Section 6.3;
(f) With respect to any approval required to be obtained from the “Landlord” under the Master Lease, such consent must be obtained from Master Landlord and Sublandlord (except as expressly provided in this Sublease), and the approval of Sublandlord may be withheld if Master Landlord’s consent is not obtained, provided Sublandlord has made commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consent;
(g) In any case where the “Landlord” reserves or is granted the right to manage, supervise, control, repair, alter, regulate the use of, or use the Subleased Premises or any areas beneath, above or adjacent thereto, such reservation or grant of right of entry shall be deemed to be for the benefit solely of Master Landlord;
(h) Intentionally omitted
(i) With respect to assignments of this Sublease or sub-subleases, Subtenant acknowledges that (i) this Sublease, and any incorporation of the Master Lease into this Sublease, does not bind Master Landlord and (ii) if, by incorporation of the assignment and subletting provisions of the Master Lease, Subtenant has the right to assign this Sublease or sub-sublease the Subleased Premises without Sublandlord’s consent, any such assignment or sub-sublease is nonetheless expressly conditioned upon Sublandlord’s obtaining the Master Landlord’s approval of any such assignment or sub-sublease;
(j) In all provisions of the Master Lease requiring “Tenant” to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide Master Landlord with evidence, certificates, notices or any other matter or thing, Subtenant shall be required to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide, as the case may be, the same to both Master Landlord and Sublandlord; and
(k) Sublandlord shall have no obligation to construct or pay for any improvements, except as expressly set forth in this Sublease.

(f) Sublandlord shall not agree to any amendment to the Master Lease which would have an adverse effect on Subtenant’s use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises without first obtaining Subtenant’s prior written approval.
20.5 Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, Subtenant does not assume any obligation to (a) pay the Base Rent or Additional Rent due under the Master Lease, (b) cure any default of Sublandlord, its agents, employees or contractors under the Master Lease unless attributable to a default under this Sublease by Subtenant, its agents, employees, contractors, invitees or anyone claiming by, through or under Subtenant, (c) perform any obligation of Sublandlord under the Master Lease which arose prior to the Commencement Date (provided that the same shall not limit or otherwise affect the parties’ agreements set forth in Sections 5.2 and 5.3 above, or Subtenant’s repair obligations set forth in Section 8 above), or (d) discharge any liens on the Premises or the Building which arise out of any work performed, or claimed to be performed, by or at the direction of Sublandlord (and not by or at the direction of Subtenant).
21. Conditions Precedent. Sublandlord’s and Subtenant’s obligations hereunder are conditioned upon obtaining the written consent of Master Landlord in a commercially reasonable form (the “Master Landlord Consent”). If Sublandlord fails to obtain Master Landlord’s Consent within forty-five (45) days after execution of this Sublease by Sublandlord, then Sublandlord or Subtenant may terminate this Sublease by giving the other party written notice within ten (10) days thereof. In the event of such termination, Sublandlord shall return to Subtenant its payment of the first installment of monthly Rent paid by Subtenant pursuant to Section 3.3, and the parties shall have no further obligation under this Sublease.
22. Termination; Recapture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Subtenant acknowledges that, under the Master Lease, Master Landlord has certain termination and recapture rights. Nothing herein shall prohibit Master Landlord from exercising any such rights, and Master Landlord nor Sublandlord shall have any liability to Subtenant as a result thereof. In the event Master Landlord exercises any such termination or recapture rights pursuant to the Master Lease, this Sublease shall terminate without any liability to Master Landlord or Sublandlord.
23. Effect of Conveyance. As used in this Sublease, the term “Sublandlord” means the holder of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease. In the event of any assignment, transfer or termination of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease, which assignment, transfer or termination may occur at any time during the Term hereof in Sublandlord’s sole discretion, Sublandlord shall be and hereby is entirely relieved of covenants and obligations of Sublandlord hereunder, and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties, that any transferee has assumed and shall carry out all covenants and obligations thereafter to be performed by Sublandlord hereunder. Sublandlord may transfer and deliver any security of Subtenant to the transferee of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease, and thereupon Sublandlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.
24. Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment: Subtenant shall have the right to use during the Term the office furnishings, and equipment comprising the existing security and technology infrastructure, within the Subleased Premises which are identified on Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Furniture”) at no additional cost to Subtenant. Prior to the Commencement Date, Sublandlord shall at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense remove desks and conference room furniture and any other items not identified on Exhibit D. The Furniture is provided in its “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition, without representation or warranty whatsoever. Subtenant shall insure the Furniture under the property insurance policy required under the Master Lease, as incorporated herein. Subtenant shall maintain the Furniture in the same condition as received, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and shall be responsible for any loss or damage to the same occurring
17
during the Term. Subtenant shall surrender the Furniture to Sublandlord upon the termination of this Sublease in the same condition as exists as of the Commencement Date, reasonable wear and tear and casualty excepted. Subtenant may remove any of the Furniture from the Subleased Premises following ten (10) business days’ prior written notice to Sublandlord, provided that, promptly following such notice, Sublandlord shall have the right, if it so elects, to remove such Furniture from the Subleased Premises for its own purposes (and Subtenant shall cooperate with Sublandlord as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate such removal). Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided (i) Subtenant has not defaulted under this Sublease and no event has occurred that, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, would constitute a default by Subtenant under this Sublease and (ii) this Sublease has not terminated prior to the Expiration Date, which conditions may be waived by Sublandlord in its sole discretion, then, upon the termination of this Sublease, Subtenant agrees to purchase the Furniture from Sublandlord in its “AS IS, WHERE IS” condition without representation or warranty, in exchange for One Dollar ($1.00), in which event the transfer of ownership of the Furniture shall occur automatically on the termination of this Sublease, this Sublease shall constitute a xxxx of sale evidencing the transfer of the Furniture as of the termination of this Sublease, unless otherwise agreed to in a writing signed by both Sublandlord and Subtenant, and Subtenant will be liable for all sales tax payable pursuant thereto. In addition, if Sublandlord elects to transfer ownership of the Furniture to Subtenant as provided in the preceding sentence, Subtenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, for removal of the Furniture, exclusive of all cabling and wiring, in accordance with Section 18 above and the requirements of the Master Lease.
25. Disclosure Regarding Certified Access Specialist. Subtenant acknowledges that, to Sublandlord’s knowledge, the Subleased Premises have not been inspected by a Certified Access Specialist (“CASp”) for purposes of California Civil Code Section 1938 and in accordance with said Section 1938, Sublandlord hereby discloses as follows: “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises.” Sublandlord represents and warrants that, to Sublandlord’s actual knowledge, without any duty of inquiry or investigation, neither Sublandlord nor Master Landlord has requested the performance of a CASp Inspection of the Subleased Premises. In furtherance of the foregoing, and without limiting any provision of this Sublease, Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree as follows: (a) any CASp inspection requested by Subtenant shall be conducted, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, by a CASp designated by Master Landlord, subject to Master Landlord’s rules and requirements; and (b) Subtenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for making any improvements or repairs within the Subleased Premises to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards.
26. OFAC. Each party represents and warrants to the other party that, as the representing party, it: (a) is not acting, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of any person, group, entity, or nation, named by any Executive Order or the United States Treasury Department as a “terrorist”, “Specially Designated National and Blocked Person”, or other banned or blocked person, group, or nation (collectively, “Banned Person”) pursuant to any anti-terrorism law; (b) is not engaged in this Sublease transaction, or instigating or facilitating this Sublease, directly or indirectly on behalf of any Banned Persons; and (c) currently does not appear, and throughout the Term, Subtenant shall not appear, on any list of Banned Persons. For purposes hereof, “anti-terrorism laws” shall mean Executive Order 13224 and related regulations promulgated and enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, the Money Laundering Control Act, the United States Patriot Act, or any similar law, order, rule or regulation enacted in the future. The representing party hereby agrees to defend, indemnity, protect, and hold harmless the other party and Master Landlord from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, risks, liabilities, fines, penalties, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and costs arising from or related to a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties. The foregoing indemnity obligations shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease.
18
27. Miscellaneous.
27.1 Not an Offer. The submission of this Sublease for review or signature by Subtenant does not constitute an offer or option to sublease, and it shall not be effective as a sublease or otherwise until this Sublease is executed and delivered by Sublandlord and Subtenant, and the written approval of Master Landlord is obtained.
27.2 Entire Agreement. Sublandlord and Subtenant acknowledge and agree that (a) there are no covenants, representations, warranties, agreements or conditions express or implied, collateral or otherwise forming part of or in any way affecting or relating to this Sublease, except as expressly set forth in this Sublease and the Exhibits attached hereto, and (b) this Sublease and such Exhibits constitute the entire agreement between Sublandlord and Subtenant and may not be modified except by agreement in writing executed by Sublandlord and Subtenant.
27.3 Interpretation. The captions of the Sections of this Sublease are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to be relevant in resolving any question of interpretation or construction of any Section of this Sublease. The provisions of this Sublease shall be construed in accordance with the fair meaning of the language used and shall not be strictly construed against either party. When required by the contents of this Sublease, the singular includes the plural. Wherever the term “including” is used in this Sublease, it shall be interpreted as meaning “including, but not limited to,” the matter or matters thereafter enumerated.
27.4 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Sublease.
27.5 Authority to Execute. Subtenant and Sublandlord each represent and warrant to the other that each person executing this Sublease on behalf of each party is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Sublease on behalf of that party.
27.6 Broker.

Sublandlord shall be responsible for the payment of the commission or fee, if any, owed to the brokers named in the immediately preceding sentence pursuant to the terms and conditions of separate written agreements. Each party agrees to hold the other party harmless from and against all claims for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or other compensation made by any other agent, broker, salesman or finder as a consequence of such party’s actions or dealings with such agent, broker, salesman, or finder.

All notices, demands, statements or communications (collectively, “Notices”) given or required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be in writing, shall be (a) delivered by a nationally recognized overnight courier, or (b) delivered personally. Any Notice will be deemed given on the date of receipted delivery, of refusal to accept delivery, or when delivery is first attempted but cannot be made due to a change of address for which no Notice was given. The party delivering any Notice shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide a courtesy copy of each such Notice to the receiving party via electronic mail. All notices given to Master Landlord under the Master Lease shall be considered received only when delivered in accordance with the Master Lease. Whenever a notice is given or received pursuant to the Master Lease by or to Sublandlord or Subtenant which has relevance to the Subleased Premises, Sublandlord and Subtenant each agree promptly to provide the other with a copy of such notice.
27.8 Choice of Law; Severability. This Sublease shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. If any term of this Sublease is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Sublease shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent possible under the law and shall not be affected or impaired.
19
27.9 Amendment. This Sublease may not be amended, except by the written agreement of all parties hereto.
27.10 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party brings any action or legal proceeding with respect to this Sublease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees, and court costs. If either party becomes the subject of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, then the other party shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees, and other costs incurred by that party in protecting its rights hereunder and in obtaining any other relief as a consequence of such proceeding.
27.11 Counterparts. This Sublease may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and both of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Sublease may be executed by a party’s signature transmitted by electronic mail in portable document format (“pdf”) or through an electronic signature/online signature service such as “DocuSign”, and copies of this Sublease executed and delivered by means of pdf signatures or by DocuSign or similar service shall have the same force and effect as copies hereof executed and delivered with original signatures. All parties hereto may rely upon pdf signatures as if such signatures were originals. Upon request by either party, any party executing and delivering this Sublease by pdf shall promptly thereafter deliver a counterpart of this Sublease containing said party’s original signature. All parties hereto agree that a pdf signature page may be introduced into evidence in any proceeding arising out of or related to this Sublease as if it were an original signature page.
27.12 Sublandlord’s Costs. In the event Subtenant requests consent from Sublandlord or Master Landlord to assign, sublet, make alterations, or receive any other consent or obtain any waiver from or modification to the terms of this Sublease, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord or Master Landlord, as the case maybe, a reasonable administrative charge and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in reviewing such request (subject to any caps on such charges and fees set forth in the Master Lease) or such amount as set forth in this Sublease or Master Lease as the case may be.
27.13 Waiver of Damages. Except as expressly set forth in this Sublease to the contrary, in no event shall Sublandlord or Subtenant be liable for, and each hereby waives any claim for, any indirect, consequential or punitive damages, including loss of profits or business opportunity, arising under or in connection with this Sublease; provided however, nothing herein shall limit any remedies available to Sublandlord under applicable law as a result of a Default of this Sublease by Subtenant.

ARTICLE 1
PREMISES, BUILDING, PROJECT, AND COMMON AREAS
1.1 Premises, Building, Project and Common Areas.
1.1.1 The Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the premises set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary (the “Premises”). The outline of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and each floor of the Premises has approximately the number of rentable square feet as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary. The parties hereto agree that the lease of the Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions (the “TCCs”) herein set forth, and Tenant covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Lease to keep and perform each and all of such TCCs by it to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the purpose of Exhibit A is to show the approximate location of the Premises in the “Building,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below, only, and such Exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement, representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the “Common Areas,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.3, below, or the elements thereof or of the accessways to the Premises or the “Project,” as that term is defined in Section 1.1.2, below. Except as specifically set forth in this Lease and in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Work Letter”), Tenant shall accept the Premises in its existing “as-is” condition and Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises. Tenant also acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the condition of the Premises, the Building or the Project or with respect to the suitability of any of the foregoing for the conduct of Tenant’s business, except as specifically set forth in this Lease and the Work Letter. The taking of possession of the Premises by Tenant shall conclusively establish that the Premises and the Building were at such time in good and sanitary order, condition and repair.
1.1.2 The Building and the Project. The Premises is a part of the building set forth in Section 2.1 of the Summary (the “Building”). The Building is the principal component of an office project known as “000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx.” The term “Project,” as used in this Lease, shall mean (i) the Building and the Common Areas, (ii) the land (which is improved with landscaping, parking structures and/or facilities and other improvements) upon which the Building and the Common Areas are located, and (iii) at Landlord’s discretion, any additional real property, areas, land, buildings or other improvements added thereto.
1.1.3 Common Areas. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, and subject to the rules and regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the “Common Areas”). The Common Areas shall
-0- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
consist of the “Project Common Areas” and the “Building Common Areas” (as both of those terms are defined below). The term “Project Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portion of the Project designated as such by Landlord. The term “Building Common Areas,” as used in this Lease, shall mean the portions of the Common Areas located within the Building designated as such by Landlord. The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to such rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may make from time to time, provided that such rules, regulations and restrictions do not unreasonably interfere with the rights granted to Tenant under this Lease and the Permitted Use. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas; provided that no such changes shall be permitted which materially reduce Tenant’s rights or access hereunder. Except when and where Tenant’s right of access is specifically excluded in this Lease, Tenant shall have the right of access to the Premises, the Building, and the Project parking facility twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week during the “Lease Term,” as that term is defined in Section 2.1, below.
1.2 Right of First Offer. Landlord hereby grants to the tenant originally named herein (the “Original Tenant”) and any Permitted Transferee Assignee (as defined in Section 14.8) a one-time right of first offer with respect to approximately 29,498 rentable square feet, commonly known as Suite 400, located on the fourth (4th) floor of the Building as depicted on Exhibit G attached hereto (the “First Offer Space”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such first offer right of Tenant shall apply only following the expiration or earlier termination of the existing lease of the First Offer Space (including renewals of such lease, irrespective of whether such renewal is currently set forth in such lease or is subsequently granted or agreed upon, and regardless of whether such renewal is consummated pursuant to a lease amendment or a new Building, which rights relate to the First Offer Space and are set forth in leases of space in the lease). In addition, such right of first offer shall be subordinate to all rights of other tenants of the Building existing as of the date hereof, including, without limitation, any expansion, first offer, first refusal, first negotiation and other rights, regardless of whether such rights are executed strictly in accordance with their respective terms or pursuant to a lease amendment or a new lease. The existing tenant of the First Offer Space (the “First Offer Existing Tenant”), and all such third party tenants in the Building with a right to lease the First Offer Space, are collectively referred to as the “Superior Right Holders”. Tenant’s right of first offer shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 1.2.
1.2.1 Procedure for Offer. Subject to the terms of this Section 1.2, Landlord shall notify Tenant (the “First Offer Notice”) at least thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated “First Offer Commencement Date”, as that term is defined in Section 1.2.5, below, subject to the rights of any Superior Right Holder; provided, however, if the First Offer Existing Tenant’s lease is terminated earlier than the scheduled expiration date of such lease for any reason, then Landlord shall instead deliver the First Offer Notice to Tenant no less than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated First Offer Commencement Date. Pursuant to such First Offer Notice, Landlord shall offer to lease to Tenant the First Offer Space. The First Offer Notice shall describe the “First Offer Rent”, as that term is defined in Section 1.2.3 below, and other fundamental material economic terms upon which Landlord is willing to lease the First Offer Space to Tenant (collectively, the “Economic Terms”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall Landlord have the obligation to deliver a First Offer Notice (and Tenant shall have no right to exercise its right under this Section 1.2) to the extent that the First Offer Commencement Date is anticipated by Landlord to occur on or after the twenty-fourth (24th) month prior to the Lease Expiration Date, as defined in Section 2.1 below (the “ROFO Expiration”).
-0- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
1.2.2 Procedure for Acceptance. If Tenant wishes to exercise Tenant’s right of first offer, then within ten (10) days of delivery of the First Offer Notice to Tenant (“Tenant’s Exercise Period”), Tenant shall deliver notice to Landlord (the “First Offer Exercise Notice”) of Tenant’s election to exercise its right of first offer with respect to the entire First Offer Space on the terms contained in the First Offer Notice. If Tenant does not so notify Landlord within such ten (10) day period, then Landlord shall be free to lease the First Offer Space to anyone to whom Landlord desires on any terms Landlord desires. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) Tenant was entitled to exercise its right of first offer pursuant to this Section 1.2, but did not accept Landlord’s offer set forth in Landlord’s First Offer Notice, and (ii) within a six (6) months period following Landlord’s delivery of the First Offer Notice to Tenant, Landlord proposes to lease the First Offer Space to any potential third party tenant other than a Superior Right Holder on Economic Terms less than ninety percent (90%) as favorable to Landlord as the Economic Terms offered in such First Offer Notice to Tenant (as determined using a Net Equivalent Lease Rate, as defined in Exhibit H attached hereto), then so long as Tenant’s right of first offer has not otherwise terminated pursuant to Section 1.2.6, Landlord may not lease the First Offer Space to such third party tenant (other than a Superior Right Holder) without first providing Tenant with a new First Offer Notice on such reduced Economic Terms. If Landlord provides such a new First Offer Notice to Tenant, Tenant’s Exercise Period (as defined in Section 1.2.2 below) with respect to such new First Offer Notice shall be amended to be a period of five (5) days. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant must elect to exercise its right of first offer, if at all, with respect to all of the space offered by Landlord to Tenant, and Tenant may not elect to lease only a portion thereof.
(a) First Offer Space Rent. The rent payable by Tenant for the First Offer Space (the “First Offer Rent”) shall be the rent (including additional rent and considering any “base year” or “expense stop” applicable thereto), including all escalations, at which tenants, as of the anticipated First Offer Commencement Date, are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, nonequity space comparable in size, location and quality to the First Offer Space for a similar lease term (“Comparable First Offer Transactions”), which comparable space is located in the Building and/or in Comparable Buildings, taking into consideration only the following concessions: (a) rental abatement concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space, (b) tenant improvements or allowances provided or to be provided for such comparable space, taking into account, and deducting the value of, the existing improvements in the First Offer Space, such value to be based upon the age, quality and layout of the improvements and the extent to which the same could be utilized by a general office user, (c) any period of rental abatement, if any, granted to tenants in comparable transactions in connection with the design, permitting and construction of tenant improvements in such comparable spaces, and (d) other reasonable monetary concessions, if any, being granted such tenants in connection with such comparable space; provided, however, that in calculating the First Offer Rent, no consideration shall be given to the fact that Landlord is or is not required to pay a real estate brokerage commission in connection with Tenant’s lease of the First Offer Space or the fact that Landlord and/or the landlords of the Comparable Buildings are or are not paying real estate brokerage commissions in connection with such comparable space. The terms of Section 3.2 of this Lease shall be inapplicable in connection with the First Offer Space.
-0- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
1.2.3 Construction in First Offer Space. Tenant shall take the First Offer Space in its “as is” condition, and the construction of improvements in the First Offer Space shall comply with the terms of Article 8 of this Lease subject to Landlord’s express repair and maintenance obligations set forth in Section 7. Any improvement allowance to which Tenant may be entitled shall be as set forth in the First Offer Notice.
1.2.4 Amendment to Lease. If Tenant timely exercises Tenant’s right to lease the First Offer Space, then Landlord and Tenant shall within fifteen (15) days thereafter execute an amendment to this Lease for the First Offer Space upon the terms and conditions as set forth in the First Offer Notice and this Section 1.2; provided, however, that an otherwise valid exercise of the such right of first offer shall be fully effective whether or not a lease amendment is executed. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Section 1.2, the rentable square footage of the First Offer Space shall be determined by Landlord in accordance with Landlord’s then current standard of measurement for the Building. Tenant shall commence payment of rent for the First Offer Space, and the term of Tenant’s lease of the First Offer Space shall commence, upon the date of delivery of the First Offer Space to Tenant (the “First Offer Commencement Date”) and shall terminate as of the date set forth in the First Offer Notice.
1.2.5 Termination of Right of First Offer. Tenant’s rights under this Section 1.2 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and any Permitted Transferee Assignee, and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant or any Permitted Transferee Assignee (and not any other assignee, sublessee or transferee of the Tenant’s interest in this Lease) if the Original Tenant or its Permitted Transferee Assignee occupies the entire Premises. The right of first offer granted herein shall terminate upon the failure by Tenant to exercise its right of first offer as offered by Landlord, subject to the terms of Section 1.2.2 above. Tenant shall not have the right to lease First Offer Space, as provided in this Section 1.2, if, as of the date of the attempted exercise of any right of first offer by Tenant, or, at Landlord’s option, as of the scheduled date of delivery of such First Offer Space to Tenant, Tenant is in default under this Lease beyond the applicable notice and cure periods or has previously been in default beyond the applicable notice and cure periods under this Lease.
1.2 Stipulation of Rentable Square Feet of Premises and Building. For purposes of this Lease, “rentable square feet” and “usable square feet” of the Premises shall be deemed as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary and the rentable square feet of the Building shall be deemed as set forth in Section 2.1 of the Summary.
ARTICLE 2

-00- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
the Summary (the “Lease Expiration Date”) unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. If Landlord is unable for any reason to deliver possession of the Premises to Tenant on any specific date, then Landlord shall not be subject to any liability for its failure to do so, and such failure shall not affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 2.1 or elsewhere in this Lease, if Landlord fails to grant Tenant access to the Premises pursuant to Section 2.3 as of the Early Access Date (as defined in Section 2.3), subject to extension by virtue of force majeure, then except to the extent such failure is the result of the acts or omissions of Tenant or any Tenant Parties (including any failure of Tenant to fully satisfy the Early Access Conditions (as defined in Section 2.3) (each, a “Tenant Delay”) the Lease Commencement Date shall be delayed by one (1) day for each day elapsing between the Early Access Date and the date on which Landlord does grant Tenant access to the Premises in accordance with Section 2.3. In the event that the Early Access Date is delayed as a result of a Tenant Delay there shall be no delay of the Lease Commencement Date hereunder. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Year” shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) calendar month period during the Lease Term; provided, however, that the first Lease Year shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date and end on the last day of the month in which the first anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date occurs (or if the Lease Commencement Date is the first day of a calendar month, then the first Lease Year shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date and end on the day immediately preceding the first anniversary of the Lease Commencement Date), and the second and each succeeding Lease Year shall commence on the first day of the next calendar month; and further provided that the last Lease Year shall end on the Lease Expiration Date. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Lease Month” shall mean each succeeding calendar month during the Lease Term; provided that the first Lease Month shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date and shall end on the last day of the first (1st) full calendar month of the Lease Term and that the last Lease Month shall expire on the Lease Expiration Date. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice in the form as set forth in Exhibit C, attached hereto, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within five (5) days of receipt thereof.
2.2 Option Term.
2.2.1 Option Right. Landlord hereby grants the tenant originally named herein (the “Original Tenant”) and its “Permitted Transferee Assignee,” as that term is set forth in Section 14.8 of this Lease, one (1) option to extend the Lease Term for the entire Premises by a period of five (5) years (the “Option Term”). Such option shall be exercisable only by “Notice” (as that term is defined in Section 29.18 of this Lease) delivered by Tenant to Landlord as provided below, provided that, as of the date of delivery of such Notice, (i) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods), and (ii) Tenant has not been in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods) during the prior Lease Term. Upon the proper exercise of such option to extend, and provided that, at Landlord’s election, as of the end of the Lease Term, (A) Tenant is not in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods), and (B) Tenant has not been in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods) during the prior Lease Term, then the Lease Term, as it applies to the entire Premises, shall be extended for a period of five (5) years. The rights contained in this Section 2.2 shall only be exercised by the Original Tenant or its Permitted Transferee Assignee (and not any other assignee, sublessee or other transferee of the Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) if Original Tenant and/or its Permitted Transferee Assignee is in occupancy of the entire then-existing Premises.
-11- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
2.2.2 Option Rent. The Rent payable by Tenant during the Option Term (the “Option Rent”) shall be equal to the “Market Rent,” as that term is defined in, and determined pursuant to, Exhibit H attached hereto; provided, however, that the Market Rent for each Lease Year during the Option Term, shall be equal to the amount set forth on a “Market Rate Schedule,” as that term is defined below. The “Market Rate Schedule” shall be derived from the Market Rent for the Option Term as determined pursuant to Exhibit H, attached hereto, as follows: (i) the Market Rent for the first Lease Year of the Option Term shall be equal to the sum of (a) the Market Rent, as determined pursuant to Exhibit H, (b) the amount of Direct Expenses applicable to the Premises, as reasonably determined by Landlord, for the calendar year in which the Option Term commences, and (c) an amount equal to the monthly amortization reimbursement payment for the “Renewal Allowance” (as defined in Section 3 of Exhibit H to this Lease) to be paid by Landlord in connection with Tenant’s lease of the Premises for the Option Term, with such Renewal Allowance being amortized at a reasonable rate of return to Landlord based on the rates of return then being received by the landlords of the “Comparable Buildings” as that term is set forth in Section 4 of Exhibit H attached hereto, in connection with improvement allowances then being granted by such landlords, and (ii) the Market Rent for each subsequent Lease Year shall be equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the prior Lease Year’s Market Rent. The calculation of the Market Rent shall be derived from a review of, and comparison to, the “Net Equivalent Lease Rates” of the “Comparable Transactions,” as provided for in Exhibit H.
2.2.3 Exercise of Option. The option contained in this Section 2.2 shall be exercised by Tenant, if at all, only in the manner set forth in this Section 2.2. Tenant shall deliver notice (the “Exercise Notice”) to Landlord not more than fifteen (15) months nor less than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term, stating that Tenant is exercising its option. Concurrently with such Exercise Notice, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord Tenant’s calculation of the Market Rent (the “Tenant’s Option Rent Calculation”). Landlord shall deliver notice (the “Landlord Response Notice”) to Tenant on or before the date which is thirty (30) days after Landlord’s receipt of the Exercise Notice and Tenant’s Option Rent Calculation, stating that (A) Landlord is accepting Tenant’s Option Rent Calculation as the Market Rent, or (B) rejecting Tenant’s Option Rent Calculation and setting forth Landlord’s calculation of the Market Rent (the “Landlord’s Option Rent Calculation”). Within ten (10) business days of its receipt of the Landlord Response Notice, Tenant may, at its option, accept the Market Rent contained in the Landlord’s Option Rent Calculation. If Tenant does not affirmatively accept or Tenant rejects the Market Rent specified in the Landlord’s Option Rent Calculation, the parties shall follow the procedure set forth in Section 2.2.4 below, and the Market Rent shall be determined in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2.4 below.
2.2.4 Determination of Market Rent. In the event Tenant timely and appropriately exercises its option to extend the Lease but rejects the Option Rent set forth in the Option Rent Notice pursuant to Section 2.2.3, above, then Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Option Rent using their best good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement upon the Option Rent applicable to the Option Term on or before the date that is
-12- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial Lease Term (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then the Option Rent shall be determined by arbitration pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2.4.

ARTICLE 3
BASE RENT
3.1 In General. Tenant shall pay, without prior notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord’s agent at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord’s option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, or, at Tenant’s option, by wire or ACH transfer of immediately available funds to Landlord’s bank account, the details of which Landlord shall provide to Tenant upon request, base rent (“Base Rent”) as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary in advance on or before the first day of each and every calendar month during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever. In accordance with Section 4 of the Summary, any increases in Base Rent shall occur on the first day of the applicable Lease Month. The parties acknowledge, however, that Tenant shall pay Base Rent for each “calendar month” of the Lease Term (or a prorated portion of a “calendar month”, as applicable), even though the first “Lease Month” may pertain to a period longer than one (1) calendar month. The Base Rent for the first full month of the Lease Term which occurs after the expiration of any free rent period shall be paid at the time of Tenant’s execution of this Lease. If any payment of Rent is for a period which is shorter than one month, the Rent for any such fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis during such fractional month and shall total an amount equal to the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such fractional month and the denominator of which is the actual number of days occurring in such calendar month, and (ii) the then-applicable Monthly Installment of Base Rent. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the TCCs of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis.
3.2 Abated Base Rent. Provided that no event of default is occurring beyond the applicable notice and cure periods provided in this Lease during the [********************************************************************************************************************** ****************] full calendar month of the initial Lease Term (the “Base Rent Abatement Period”), Tenant shall not be obligated to pay any Base Rent otherwise attributable to the Premises during such Base Rent Abatement Period (the “Base Rent Abatement”). [*************************** ********************************************************************************************] Tenant acknowledges and agrees that during such Base Rent Abatement Period, such abatement of Base Rent for the Premises shall have no effect on the calculation of any future increases in Base Rent or Direct Expenses payable by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, which increases shall be calculated without regard to such Base Rent Abatement. Additionally, Tenant shall be obligated to pay all “Additional Rent” (as that term is defined in Section 4.1 of this Lease) during the Base Rent Abatement Period. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing Base Rent Abatement has been granted to Tenant as additional consideration for entering into this Lease, and for agreeing to pay the Base Rent and perform the terms and conditions otherwise required
-16- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
under this Lease. If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease and shall fail to cure such default within the notice and cure period, if any, permitted for cure pursuant to this Lease, or if this Lease is terminated for any reason other than Landlord’s breach of this Lease, then the dollar amount of the unapplied portion of the Base Rent Abatement as of the date of such default or termination, as the case may be, shall be converted to a credit to be applied to the Base Rent applicable at the end of the Lease Term and Tenant shall immediately be obligated to begin paying Base Rent for the Premises in full. The foregoing Base Rent Abatement right set forth in this Section 3.2 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and shall only apply to the extent that the Original Tenant (and not any assignee, or any sublessee or other transferee of the Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease) is the Tenant under this Lease during such Base Rent Abatement Period.
ARTICLE 4
ADDITIONAL RENT
4.1 In General. In addition to paying the Base Rent specified in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay “Tenant’s Share” of the annual “Direct Expenses,” as those terms are defined in Sections 4.2.6 and 4.2.2, respectively, of this Lease, which are in excess of the amount of Direct Expenses applicable to the “Base Year,” as that term is defined in Section 4.2.1, below; provided, however, that in no event shall any decrease in Direct Expenses for any “Expense Year” (as that term is defined in Section 4.2.3, below) below Direct Expenses for the Base Year entitle Tenant to any decrease in Base Rent or any credit against sums due under this Lease. Such payments by Tenant, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the TCCs of this Lease, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Additional Rent,” and the Base Rent and the Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as “Rent.” All amounts due under this Article 4 as Additional Rent shall be payable for the same periods and in the same manner as the Base Rent; provided, however, the parties hereby acknowledge that the first monthly installment of Tenant’s Share of any “Estimated Excess,” as that term is set forth in, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of, Section 4.4.2 of this Lease, shall first be due and payable for the calendar month occurring immediately following the expiration of the Base Year. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay the Additional Rent provided for in this Article 4 shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.
4.2 Definitions of Key Terms Relating to Additional Rent. As used in this Article 4, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth:
4.2.1 “Base Year” shall mean the period set forth in Section 5 of the Summary.
4.2.2 “Direct Expenses” shall mean “Operating Expenses” and “Tax Expenses.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not be obligated to file any application or institute any proceeding seeking a reduction in Tax Expenses.
4.2.5.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, the amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year and any Expense Year shall be calculated without taking into account any decreases in real estate taxes obtained in connection with Proposition 8, and, therefore, the Tax Expenses in the Base Year and/or an Expense Year may be greater than those actually incurred by Landlord, but shall, nonetheless, be the Tax Expenses due under this Lease; provided that (i) any costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in securing any Proposition 8 reduction shall not be included in Direct Expenses for purposes of this Lease, and (ii) tax refunds under Proposition 8 shall not be deducted from Tax Expenses, but rather shall be the sole property of Landlord. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that this Section 4.2.5.4 is not intended to in any way affect (A) the inclusion in Tax Expenses of the statutory two percent (2.0%) annual maximum allowable increase in Tax Expenses (as such statutory increase may be modified by subsequent legislation), or (B) the inclusion or exclusion of Tax Expenses pursuant to the terms of Proposition 13, which shall be governed pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.2.5.1 through 4.2.5.3, above.
4.2.6 “Tenant’s Share” shall mean the percentage set forth in Section 6 of the Summary.
4.3 Cost Pools. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to equitably allocate some or all of the Direct Expenses for the Project among different portions or occupants of the Project (the “Cost Pools”), in Landlord’s discretion. Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, the office space tenants of a building of the Project or of the Project, and the retail space tenants of a building of the Project or of the Project. The Direct Expenses within each such Cost Pool shall be allocated and charged to the tenants within such Cost Pool in an equitable manner.
4.4 Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent. If for any Expense Year ending or commencing within the Lease Term, Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year exceeds Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses applicable to the Base Year, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section 4.4.1, below, and as Additional Rent, an amount equal to the excess (the “Excess”).
4.4.1 Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant. Landlord shall give to Tenant following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the “Statement”) which shall state in general major categories the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for the particular Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of the Excess.
-24- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver such Statement to Tenant on or before May 1 following the end of the Expense Year to which such Statement relates. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall pay, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Statement, the full amount of the Excess for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as “Estimated Excess,” as that term is defined in Section 4.4.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant’s overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease. Except as provided below in this Section 4.4.1, the failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, if an Excess is present, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Statement, pay to Landlord such amount, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Excess than the actual Excess, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment. The provisions of this Section 4.4.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenant’s Share of any Direct Expenses attributable to any Expense Year which are first billed to Tenant more than eighteen (18) full calendar months after the Lease Expiration Date, provided that in any event Tenant shall be responsible for Tenant’s Share of Direct Expenses which (x) were levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility companies, and (y) Landlord had not previously received an invoice therefor and which are currently due and owing (i.e., costs invoiced for the first time regardless of the date when the work or service relating to this Lease was performed), at any time following the Lease Expiration Date which are attributable to any Expense Year.
4.4.2 Statement of Estimated Direct Expenses. In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the “Estimate Statement”) which shall set forth in general major categories Landlord’s reasonable estimate (the “Estimate”) of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated excess (the “Estimated Excess”) as calculated by comparing the Direct Expenses for such Expense Year, which shall be based upon the Estimate, to the amount of Direct Expenses for the Base Year. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Additional Rent under this Article 4, nor shall Landlord be prohibited from revising any Estimate Statement or Estimated Excess theretofore delivered to the extent necessary, provided that Landlord shall not have the right to issue such revisions more frequently than two (2) times during any Expense Year. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Estimate Statement, a fraction of the Estimated Excess for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the second to last sentence of this Section 4.4.2). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at any time, subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4.2), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Excess set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant. Throughout the Lease Term Landlord shall maintain records with respect to Direct Expenses in accordance with sound real estate management and accounting practices, consistently applied.

4.5 Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible.
4.5.1 Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property located in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant’s equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord’s property or if the assessed value of Landlord’s property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such equipment, furniture, fixtures or any other personal property and if Landlord pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to do regardless of the validity thereof but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, as the case may be.
4.5.2 If the improvements in the Premises, whether installed and/or paid for by Landlord or Tenant and whether or not affixed to the real property so as to become a part thereof, are assessed for real property tax purposes at a valuation higher than the valuation at which improvements conforming to Landlord’s “building standard” in other space in the Building are assessed, then the Tax Expenses levied against Landlord or the property by reason of such excess assessed valuation shall be deemed to be taxes levied against personal property of Tenant and shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.5.1, above.
4.5.3 Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Tenant shall pay prior to delinquency any (i) rent tax or sales tax, service tax, transfer tax or value added tax, or any other applicable tax on the rent or services herein or otherwise respecting this Lease, (ii) taxes assessed upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion of the Project, including the Project parking facility; or (iii) taxes assessed upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
4.6 Landlord’s Records. Upon Tenant’s written request given not more than ninety (90) days after Tenant’s receipt of a Statement for a particular Expense Year, and provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond the applicable notice and cure period provided in this Lease, specifically including, but not limited to, the timely payment of Additional Rent (whether or not a component thereof is the subject of the audit contemplated herein), Landlord shall furnish Tenant with such reasonable supporting documentation pertaining to the calculation of the Excess set forth in the Statement as Tenant may reasonably request. Landlord shall provide said documentation pertaining to the relevant Excess to Tenant within sixty (60) days after Tenant’s written request therefor. Within one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of a Statement by Tenant (the “Audit Period”), if Tenant disputes the amount of the Excess set forth in the Statement, an independent certified public accountant (which accountant (A) is a member of a nationally or regionally recognized certified public accounting firm which has previous experience in auditing financial operating records of landlords of office buildings, (B) shall not already be providing primary accounting services to Tenant and shall not have provided primary accounting services to Tenant in the past three (3) years, (C) is not working on
-00- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
a contingency fee basis [i.e., Tenant must be billed based on the actual time and materials that are incurred by the certified public accounting firm in the performance of the audit], and (D) shall not currently or in the future be providing accounting and/or lease administration services to another tenant in the Building and/or the Project in connection with a review or audit by such other tenant of similar expense records), designated and paid for by Tenant, may, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, audit Landlord’s records with respect to the Excess set forth in the Statement at Landlord’s corporate offices, provided that (i) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods provided under this Lease), (ii)Tenant has paid all amounts required to be paid under the applicable Estimate Statement and Statement, and (iii) a copy of the audit agreement between Tenant and its particular certified public accounting firm has been delivered to Landlord prior to the commencement of the audit. In connection with such audit, Tenant and Tenant’s certified public accounting firm must agree in advance to follow Landlord’s reasonable rules and procedures regarding an audit of the aforementioned Landlord records, and shall execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding such audit. Any audit report prepared by Tenant’s certified public accounting firm shall be delivered concurrently to Landlord and Tenant within the Audit Period. Tenant’s failure to audit the amount of the Excess set forth in any Statement within the Audit Period shall be deemed to be Tenant’s approval of such Statement and Tenant, thereafter, waives the right or ability to audit the amounts set forth in such Statement. If after such audit, Tenant still disputes such Excess, an audit to determine the proper amount shall be made, at Tenant’s expense, by an independent certified public accountant (the “Accountant”) selected by Landlord and subject to Tenant’s reasonable approval; provided that if such audit by the Accountant proves that the Direct Expenses in the subject Expense Year were overstated by more than five percent (5%), then the cost of the Accountant and the cost of such audit, in an amount not to exceed Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000.00), shall be paid for by Landlord. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant’s sole right to audit Landlord’s records and to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section 4.6, and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to applicable law to audit such records and/or to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant.
ARTICLE 5
USE OF PREMISES
5.1 Permitted Use. Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use set forth in Section 7 of the Summary and Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose or purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion. To Landlord’s actual knowledge, except for any violations cured or remedied on or before the date of this Lease, if any, Landlord has not received any written notice from any governmental authority of any violation of any Law applicable to the Premises. “Landlord’s actual knowledge” shall be deemed to mean and be limited to the current actual knowledge of Xxxx Xxxxxx, Landlord’s asset manager for the Building, at the time of execution of this Lease and not any implied, imputed, or constructive knowledge of said individual or of Landlord or any parties related to or comprising Landlord and without any independent investigation or inquiry having been made or any implied duty to investigate or make any inquiries; it being understood and agreed that such individual shall have no personal liability in any manner whatsoever hereunder or otherwise related to the transactions contemplated hereby.

5.2 Prohibited Uses. The uses prohibited under this Lease shall include, without limitation, use of the Premises or a portion thereof for (i) offices of any agency or bureau of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof; (ii) offices or agencies of any foreign governmental or political subdivision thereof; (iii) offices of any health care professionals or service organization; (iv) schools or other training facilities which are not ancillary to corporate, executive or professional office use; (v) retail or restaurant uses; or (vi) communications firms such as radio and/or television stations. Tenant shall not allow occupancy density for the Premises which is greater than seven (7) persons per each one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Lease, Landlord hereby agrees that occupancy of the initial Premises by up to ten (10) persons per each one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Premises for the Permitted Use during “Building Hours” (as that term is defined in Section 6.1.1 below) (with the density in excess of seven (7) persons per each one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Premises being hereafter called the “Excess Occupancy Density”) shall not constitute a breach by Tenant under the terms of this Section 5.2 so long as such Excess Occupancy Density complies with and is not greater than the density permitted by Applicable Laws and zoning requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall Landlord be obligated to make any changes to the Building Structure or Building Systems (as defined in Article 7) to accommodate Tenant’s Excess Occupancy Density and nothing set forth herein shall be construed as entitling Tenant or any Tenant Party to use more parking than the Parking Pass Ratio set forth in Section 9 of the Summary. In addition, any HVAC usage or other utility usage attributable to Tenant’s Excess Occupancy Density shall be deemed to be in excess of the Building standard to be provided by Landlord under this Lease and shall instead be at Tenant’s sole cost, pursuant to the terms of Section 6.2 below. Tenant further covenants and agrees that it shall not use, or suffer or permit any person or persons to use, the Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose contrary to the rules and regulations promulgated by Landlord from time to time (“Rules and Regulations”), the current set of which (as of the date of this Lease) is attached to this Lease as Exhibit D; or in violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California, or the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project including, without limitation, any such laws, ordinances, regulations or requirements relating to hazardous materials or substances, as those terms are defined by applicable laws now or hereafter in effect; provided, however, Landlord shall not enforce, change or modify the Rules and Regulations in a discriminatory manner and Landlord agrees that the Rules and Regulations shall not be unreasonably modified or enforced in a manner which will unreasonably interfere with the normal and customary conduct of Tenant’s business. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way damage the reputation of the Project or obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Building, or injure or annoy them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises.

5.3 CC&Rs. Tenant shall comply with all recorded covenants, conditions, and restrictions currently affecting the Project. Additionally, Tenant acknowledges that the Project may be subject to any future covenants, conditions, and restrictions (the “CC&Rs”) which Landlord, in Landlord’s discretion, deems reasonably necessary or desirable, and Tenant agrees that this Lease shall be subject and subordinate to such CC&Rs, so long as such CC&Rs do not cause a material increase in costs or expenses to Tenant or in any other way materially and adversely change the rights and obligations of Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to execute and acknowledge, within fifteen (15) business days of a request by Landlord, a “Recognition of Covenants, Conditions, and Restriction,” in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit F, agreeing to and acknowledging the CC&Rs.
ARTICLE 6

6.1.1 Subject to reasonable changes implemented by Landlord and all governmental rules, regulations and guidelines applicable thereto, Landlord shall provide heating, ventilation and air conditioning (“HVAC”) when necessary for normal comfort for normal office use in the Premises from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M Monday through Friday (collectively, the “Building Hours”), except for the date of observation of New Year’s Day, President’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and, at Landlord’s discretion, other locally or nationally recognized holidays (collectively, the “Holidays”).

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall pay directly to Landlord pursuant to the separate electrical submeters, the cost of all electricity services provided to and/or consumed in the Premises (including normal and excess consumption and including the cost of electricity to operate the HVAC air handlers), which electricity shall be separately submetered as described above (or otherwise equitably allocated and directly charged by Landlord to Tenant). Tenant shall pay such electricity cost within ten (10) days after demand and as Additional Rent under this Lease (and not as part of the Operating Expenses). Landlord shall designate the utility provider from time to time.

Tenant shall cooperate fully with Landlord at all times and abide by all regulations and requirements that Landlord may reasonably prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the HVAC, electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems.
6.2 Overstandard Tenant Use. Tenant shall not, without Landlord’s prior written consent, use heat-generating machines, machines other than normal fractional horsepower office machines, or equipment or lighting other than Building standard lights in the Premises, which may affect the temperature otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system or increase the water normally furnished for the Premises by Landlord pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease. If such consent is given, Landlord shall have the right to require installation of supplementary air conditioning units or other facilities in the Premises, including supplementary or additional metering devices, and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation, operation and maintenance, increased wear and tear on existing equipment and other similar charges, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon billing by Landlord. If Tenant uses water (including, without limitation, in connection with any shower facilities located in the Premises), electricity, heat or air conditioning in excess of that supplied by Landlord pursuant to Section 6.1 of this Lease (including without limitation, as a result of any Excess Occupancy Density), Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon billing, the cost of such excess consumption, the cost of the installation, operation, and maintenance of equipment which is installed in order to supply such excess consumption, and the cost of the increased wear and tear on existing equipment caused by such excess consumption; and Landlord may install devices to separately meter any increased use and in such event Tenant shall pay the increased cost directly to Landlord, including the cost of such additional metering devices. Tenant’s use of electricity shall never exceed the capacity of the feeders to the Project or the risers or wiring installation, and subject to the terms of Section 29.32, below, Tenant shall not install or use or permit the installation or use of any computer or electronic data processing equipment in the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord. If Tenant desires to use heat, ventilation or air conditioning during hours other than those for which Landlord is obligated to supply such utilities pursuant to the terms of Section 6.1 of this Lease, Tenant shall give Landlord such prior notice, if any, as Landlord shall from time to time establish as appropriate, of Tenant’s desired use in order to supply such utilities, and Landlord shall supply such utilities to Tenant at such hourly cost to Tenant (which shall be treated as Additional Rent) as Landlord shall from time to time establish.

6.3 Interruption of Use. Subject to Section 6.4, Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for damages, by abatement of Rent or otherwise, for failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any service (including telephone and telecommunication services), or for any diminution in the quality or quantity thereof, when such failure or delay or diminution is occasioned, in whole or in part, by breakage, repairs, replacements, or improvements, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water, or other fuel at the Building or Project after reasonable effort to do so, by any riot or other dangerous condition, emergency, accident or casualty whatsoever, by act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any other cause beyond Landlord’s reasonable control; and such failures or delays or diminution shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of Tenant’s use and possession of the Premises or relieve Tenant from paying Rent or performing any of its obligations under this Lease, except to the extent provided below in Section 6.4. Furthermore, Landlord shall not be liable under any circumstances for a loss of, or injury to, property or for injury to, or interference with, Tenant’s business, including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring, through or in connection with or incidental to a failure to furnish any of the services or utilities as set forth in this Article 6.
6.4 Abatement Event. If (i) Landlord fails to perform the obligations required of Landlord under the TCCs of this Lease, (ii) such failure causes all or a portion of the Premises to be untenantable and unusable by Tenant, and (iii) such failure relates to (A) the nonfunctioning of the heat, ventilation, and air conditioning system in the Premises, the electricity in the Premises, the nonfunctioning of the elevator service to the Premises, or (B) a failure to provide access to the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the “Initial Notice”), specifying such failure to perform by Landlord (the “Abatement Event”). If Landlord has not cured such Abatement Event within five (5) business days after the receipt of the Initial Notice, Tenant may deliver an additional notice to Landlord (the “Additional Notice”), specifying such Abatement Event and Tenant’s intention to xxxxx the payment of Rent under this Lease. If Landlord does not cure such Abatement Event within five (5) business days of receipt of the Additional Notice, Tenant may, upon written notice to Landlord, immediately xxxxx Rent payable under this Lease for that portion of the Premises rendered untenantable and not used by Tenant, for the period beginning on the date five (5) business days after the Initial Notice to the earlier of the date Landlord cures such Abatement Event or the date Tenant recommences the use of such portion of the Premises. Such right to xxxxx Rent shall be Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity for an Abatement Event. Except as provided in this Section 6.4, nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused from paying Rent due hereunder.
6.5 Janitorial Service. All cleaning and janitorial services for the Premises, including regular removal of trash and debris and the washing of all windows in the Premises, all in a manner consistent with Landlord’s commercially reasonable janitorial standards established for the Building, shall be performed and obtained at Tenant’s sole cost and expense exclusively by or through Landlord’s janitorial contractors. Prior to the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall contract directly with Landlord’s janitorial contractors for the Project and the janitorial contract for the same must be approved in writing by Landlord in advance. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to change its designated janitorial services provider for the Building, in which event Tenant shall terminate its contract with Landlord’s previously designated janitorial services provider and enter into a contract with Landlord’s newly designated janitorial services provider. Landlord shall have the right to inspect the Premises for purposes of confirming that Tenant is cleaning the Premises as required by this Section 6.5, and to require Tenant to provide additional cleaning, if necessary. In the event Tenant shall fail to provide any of the services described in this Section 6.5 within five (5) business days after notice from Landlord, which notice shall not be required in the event of an emergency, then Landlord shall have the right to provide such services and any charge or cost incurred by Landlord in connection therewith shall be deemed Additional Rent due and payable by Tenant upon receipt by Tenant of a written statement of cost from Landlord. Failure of Tenant to comply with any one or more of the foregoing provisions shall be deemed to be a default under this Lease.

ARTICLE 7
REPAIRS
Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense, keep the Premises, including all improvements, fixtures, equipment, interior window coverings, and furnishings therein, and the floor or floors of the Building on which the Premises is located, in good order, repair and condition at all times during the Lease Term. In addition, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s own expense, but under the supervision and subject to the prior approval of Landlord, and within any reasonable period of time specified by Landlord, promptly and adequately repair all damage to the Premises and replace or repair all damaged, broken, or worn fixtures and appurtenances, except for damage caused by ordinary wear and tear or beyond the reasonable control of Tenant; provided however, that, at Landlord’s option, or if Tenant fails to make such repairs, Landlord may, after written notice to Tenant and Tenant’s failure to repair within five (5) business days thereafter, but need not, make such repairs and replacements, and Tenant shall pay Landlord the cost thereof, including a percentage of the cost thereof (to be uniformly established for the Building and/or the Project) sufficient to reimburse Landlord for all overhead, general conditions, reasonable fees and other reasonable costs or expenses arising from Landlord’s involvement with such repairs and replacements forthwith upon being billed for same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall be responsible for repairs to the exterior walls, foundation and roof of the Building, the structural portions of the floors of the Building, and the systems and equipment of the Building, except to the extent that such repairs are required due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant; provided, however, that if such repairs are due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, Landlord shall nevertheless make such repairs at Tenant’s expense, or, if covered by Landlord’s insurance, Tenant shall only be obligated to pay any deductible in connection therewith. Landlord may, but shall not be required to, enter the Premises at all reasonable times to make such repairs, alterations, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Project or to any equipment located in the Project as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as Landlord may be required to do by governmental or quasi-governmental authority or court order or decree; provided, however, except for (i) emergencies, (ii) repairs, alterations, improvements or additions required by governmental or quasi-governmental authorities or court order or decree, or (iii) repairs which are the obligation of Tenant hereunder, any such entry into the Premises by Landlord shall be performed in a manner so as not to materially interfere with Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises; provided that, with respect to items (ii) and (iii) above, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar law, statute, or ordinance now or hereafter in effect.

ARTICLE 8
ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS
8.1 Landlord’s Consent to Alterations. Tenant may not make any improvements, alterations, additions or changes to the Premises or any mechanical, plumbing or HVAC facilities or systems pertaining to the Premises (collectively, the “Alterations”) without first procuring the prior written consent of Landlord to such Alterations, which consent shall be requested by Tenant not less than fifteen (15) business days prior to the commencement thereof, and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by Landlord, provided it shall be deemed reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Alteration which adversely affects the structural portions or the systems or equipment of the Building or is visible from the exterior of the Building. Subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Article 8 (including, without limitation, Tenant’s removal and restoration obligations set forth in Section 8.5 below), Tenant shall have the right to install one (1) shower in the Premises. Tenant hereby acknowledges there are two (2) showers located on the second floor of the Building as of the date of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make Alterations following ten (10) business days’ notice to Landlord, but without Landlord’s prior consent, to the extent that such Alterations do not (i) adversely affect the systems and equipment of the Building, exterior appearance of the Building, or structural aspects of the Building, (ii) adversely affect the value of the Premises or Building, (iii) require a building or construction permit, or (iv) cost more than Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) for a particular job of work (the “Cosmetic Alterations”). The construction of the initial improvements to the Premises shall be governed by the terms of the Work Letter and not the terms of this Article 8.
8.2 Manner of Construction. Landlord may impose, as a condition of its consent to any and all Alterations or repairs of the Premises or about the Premises, such requirements as Landlord in its reasonable discretion may deem desirable, including, but not limited to, the requirement that Tenant utilize for such purposes only contractors reasonably approved by Landlord, and any removal and/or restoration obligations required to be performed pursuant to the TCCs of Section 8.5 of this Lease. If Landlord shall give its consent, the consent shall be deemed conditioned upon Tenant acquiring a permit to do the work from appropriate governmental agencies, the furnishing of a copy of such permit to Landlord prior to the commencement of the work, and the compliance by Tenant with all conditions of said permit in a prompt and expeditious manner. If such Alterations will involve the use of or disturb hazardous materials or substances existing in the Premises, Tenant shall notify Landlord prior to performing such Alterations and comply with Landlord’s rules and regulations concerning such hazardous materials or substances. Tenant shall construct such Alterations and perform such repairs in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformance with any and all applicable federal, state, county, local or municipal laws, ordinances, rules and regulations and pursuant to a valid building permit (to the extent a building permit is required due to the nature of the Alterations being performed), issued by the city in which the Building is located (or other applicable governmental authority), all in conformance with Landlord’s construction rules and regulations; provided, however, that prior to commencing to construct any Alteration, Tenant shall meet with Landlord to discuss Landlord’s design parameters and code compliance issues. In the event Tenant performs any Alterations in the Premises which require or give rise to governmentally required changes to the “Base Building,” as that term is defined below, then Landlord shall, at
-33- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
Tenant’s expense, make such changes to the Base Building. Since all or a portion of the Project is or may become in the future certified under the LEED rating system (or other applicable certification standard) (all in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion), Tenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that without limitation as to other grounds for Landlord withholding its consent to any proposed Alteration, Landlord shall have the right to withhold its consent to any proposed Alteration in the event that such Alteration is not compatible with such certification or recertification of the Project under such LEED rating system (or other applicable certification standard). The “Base Building” shall include the structural portions of the Building, and the public restrooms, elevators, exit stairwells and the systems and equipment located in the internal core of the Building on the floor or floors on which the Premises is located. In performing the work of any such Alterations, Tenant shall have the work performed in such manner so as not to obstruct access to the Project or any portion thereof, by any other tenant of the Project, and so as not to obstruct the business of Landlord or other tenants in the Project. Tenant shall retain any union trades to the extent designated by Landlord. Further, Tenant shall not use (and upon notice from Landlord shall cease using) contractors, services, workmen, labor, materials or equipment that, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, would disturb labor harmony with the workforce or trades engaged in performing other work, labor or services in or about the Building or the Common Areas. In addition to Tenant’s obligations under Article 9 of this Lease, upon completion of any Alterations, Tenant agrees to cause a Notice of Completion to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of the City and County of San Francisco in accordance with Section 8182 of the Civil Code of the State of California or any successor statute, and as a condition precedent to the enforceability and validity of Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall deliver to the management office for the Project a reproducible copy of the “as built” and CAD drawings of the Alterations, to the extent applicable, as well as all permits, approvals and other documents issued by any governmental agency in connection with the Alterations.
8.3 Payment for Improvements. With respect to payments to be made to Tenant’s contractors for any Alterations, Tenant shall (i) comply with Landlord’s requirements for final lien releases and waivers in connection with Tenant’s payment for work to contractors, and (ii) sign Landlord’s standard contractor’s rules and regulations. In addition, in connection with all Alterations, Tenant shall pay Landlord an oversight fee equal to three percent (3%) of the cost of the work, and reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s reasonable, actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with Landlord’s review of such work.
8.4 Construction Insurance. In addition to the requirements of Article 10 of this Lease, in the event that Tenant makes any Alterations, prior to the commencement of such Alterations, Tenant shall provide Landlord with evidence that Tenant carries “Builder’s Risk” insurance in an amount reasonably approved by Landlord covering the construction of such Alterations, and such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, it being understood and agreed that all of such Alterations shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to Article 10 of this Lease immediately upon completion thereof. In addition, Landlord may, in its reasonable discretion, require Tenant to obtain a lien and completion bond or some alternate form of security satisfactory to Landlord in an amount sufficient to ensure the lien-free completion of such Alterations and naming Landlord as a co-obligee; provided, however, that Landlord shall only be entitled to require the Original Tenant to provide to Landlord a lien and completion bond or other such security in connection with any Alterations in the event that following Landlord’s evaluation of Tenant’s then-current financial condition and performance history, Landlord determines in its good faith, prudent business judgment that the same is reasonably and prudently required.

8.5 Landlord’s Property. Landlord and Tenant hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) all Alterations, improvements, fixtures, equipment and/or appurtenances which may be installed or placed in or about the Premises (excluding Tenant’s removable trade fixtures, furniture or non-affixed office equipment), from time to time, shall be at the sole cost of Tenant and shall be and become part of the Premises and the property of Landlord, and (ii) the “Improvements” (as that term is defined in the Work Letter) to be constructed in the Premises pursuant to the TCCs of the Work Letter shall, upon completion of the same, be and become a part of the Premises and the property of Landlord. Furthermore, Landlord may, by written notice to Tenant at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Lease Term, or given following any earlier termination of this Lease, require Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, to remove any Alterations or improvements in the Premises (including, without limitation, the Improvements), and to repair any damage to the Premises and Building caused by such removal and return the affected portion of the Premises to a building standard improved condition as determined by Landlord, subject to reasonable wear and tear; provided, however, if, in connection with its notice to Landlord with respect to any such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations, (x) Tenant requests Landlord’s decision with regard to the removal of such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations, and (y) Landlord thereafter agrees in writing to waive the removal requirement with regard to such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations, then Tenant shall not be required to so remove such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations; provided further, however, that if Tenant requests such a determination from Landlord and Landlord, within ten (10) business days following Landlord’s receipt of such request from Tenant with respect to Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations, fails to address the removal requirement with regard to such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations, Landlord shall be deemed to have required the removal requirement with regard to such Alterations or Cosmetic Alterations. In any event, Tenant shall be required to remove the interconnecting stairwell between the second (2nd) and third (3rd) floors of the Premises (unless Landlord notifies Tenant in writing a new tenant is leasing both the second (2nd) and third (3rd) floors of the Premises and desires that the stairwell not be removed, in which event Tenant shall have no obligation to remove such stairwell), any ventilation systems located in any kitchen within the Premises and any showers installed in the Premises by or on behalf of Tenant. If Tenant fails to complete such removal and/or to repair any damage caused by the removal of any Alterations or improvements in the Premises, and/or to return the affected portion of the Premises to a building standard improved condition as determined by Landlord, then at Landlord’s option, either (A) Tenant shall be deemed to be holding over in the Premises and Rent shall continue to accrue in accordance with the terms of Article 16, below, until such work shall be completed, and/or (B) Landlord may do so and may charge the cost thereof to Tenant. Tenant hereby protects, defends, indemnifies and holds Landlord harmless from any liability, cost, obligation, expense or claim of lien in any manner relating to the installation, placement, removal or financing of any such Alterations, improvements, fixtures and/or equipment in, on or about the Premises, which obligations of Tenant shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

ARTICLE 9
COVENANT AGAINST LIENS
Tenant shall keep the Project and Premises free from any liens or encumbrances arising out of the work performed, materials furnished or obligations incurred by or on behalf of Tenant, and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, judgments or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of same or in connection therewith. Tenant shall give Landlord notice at least twenty (20) days prior to the commencement of any such work on the Premises (or such additional time as may be necessary under applicable laws) to afford Landlord the opportunity of posting and recording appropriate notices of non-responsibility. Tenant shall remove any such lien or encumbrance by bond or otherwise within five (5) days after notice by Landlord, and if Tenant shall fail to do so, Landlord may pay the amount necessary to remove such lien or encumbrance, without being responsible for investigating the validity thereof. The amount so paid shall be deemed Additional Rent under this Lease payable upon demand, without limitation as to other remedies available to Landlord under this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall authorize Tenant to do any act which shall subject Landlord’s title to the Building or Premises to any liens or encumbrances whether claimed by operation of law or express or implied contract. Any claim to a lien or encumbrance upon the Building or Premises arising in connection with any such work or respecting the Premises not performed by or at the request of Landlord shall be null and void, or at Landlord’s option shall attach only against Tenant’s interest in the Premises and shall in all respects be subordinate to Landlord’s title to the Project, Building and Premises.
ARTICLE 10
INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE
10.1 Indemnification and Waiver. Tenant hereby assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons in, upon or about the Premises from any cause whatsoever and agrees that Landlord, its partners, subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors (individually, a “Landlord Party” and collectively, “Landlord Parties”) shall not be liable for, and are hereby released from any responsibility for, any damage either to person or property or resulting from the loss of use thereof, which damage is sustained by Tenant or by other persons claiming through Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless the Landlord Parties from and against any and all loss, cost, damage, expense and liability (including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with or arising from: (a) any causes in, on or about the Premises; (b) the use or occupancy of the Premises by Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant; (c) any activity, work, or thing done, or permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises; (d) any acts, omission, or negligence of Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant, or the contractors, agents, employees, invitees, or visitors of Tenant or any such person, in, on or about the Project (collectively, “Tenant Parties”); (e) any breach, violation, or non-performance by Tenant or any person claiming under Tenant or the employees, agents, contractors, invitees, or visitors of Tenant or any such person of any term, covenant, or provision of this Lease or any law, ordinance, or governmental requirement of any kind; (f) any injury or damage to the person, property, or business of Tenant, its employees, agents, contractors, invitees, visitors, or any other

Should Landlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought against Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord its costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including without limitation, its actual professional fees such as appraisers’, accountants’ and attorneys’ fees. Further, Tenant’s agreement to indemnify Landlord pursuant to this Section 10.1 is not intended and shall not relieve any insurance carrier of its obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this Lease, to the extent such policies cover the matters subject to Tenant’s indemnification obligations; nor shall they supersede any inconsistent agreement of the parties set forth in any other provision of this Lease. The provisions of this Section 10.1 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability arising in connection with any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination.
10.2 Tenant’s Compliance With Landlord’s Fire and Casualty Insurance. Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, comply with Landlord’s insurance company requirements pertaining to the use of the Premises, to the extent that Tenant has been notified in writing of such requirements. If Tenant’s conduct or use (other than Building standard general office use) of the Premises causes any increase in the premium for such insurance policies then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any such increase. Tenant, at Tenant’s expense, shall comply with all rules, orders, regulations or requirements of the American Insurance Association (formerly the National Board of Fire Underwriters) and with any similar body.
10.3 Tenant’s Insurance. Throughout the Lease Term, Tenant shall maintain the following coverages in the following amounts.

10.3.1 Commercial General Liability Insurance, including Broad Form contractual liability covering the insured against claims of bodily injury, personal injury and property damage (including loss of use thereof) based upon or arising out of Tenant’s operations, occupancy or maintenance of the Project and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be written on an “occurrence” basis. Landlord and any other party the Landlord so specifies in writing to Tenant that has a material financial interest in the Project, including Landlord’s managing agent, ground lessor and/or lender, if any, shall be named as additional insureds as their interests may appear using Insurance Service Organization’s form CG2011 or a comparable form approved by Landlord. Tenant shall provide an endorsement or policy excerpt showing that Tenant’s coverage is primary and any insurance carried by Landlord shall be excess and non- contributing. The coverage shall also be extended to include damage caused by heat, smoke or fumes from a hostile fire. The policy shall not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations. This policy shall include coverage for all liabilities assumed under this Lease as an insured contract for the performance of all of Tenant’s indemnity obligations under this Lease. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Tenant nor relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder. Limits of liability insurance shall not be less than the following; provided, however, such limits may be achieved through the use of an Umbrella/Excess Policy:
Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability | $5,000,000 each occurrence | |||||

Tenant shall pay for any increase in the premiums for the property insurance of the Project if said increase is caused by Tenant’s acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises; provided that Landlord shall have delivered to Tenant reasonable supporting documentation evidencing that such increased premium results from such acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises byTenant.
10.3.2.2 Property Damage. Tenant shall use the proceeds from any such insurance for the replacement of personal property, trade fixtures, Improvements, Original Improvements and Alterations.
10.3.2.3 No Representation of Adequate Coverage. Landlord makes no representation that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified herein are adequate to cover Tenant’s property, business operations or obligations under this Lease.

Landlord and Tenant intend that their respective property loss risks shall be borne by insurance carriers to the extent above provided (and, in the case of Tenant, by an insurance carrier satisfying the requirements of Section 10.4(i) below), and Landlord and Tenant hereby agree to look solely to, and seek recovery only from, their respective insurance carriers in the event of a property loss to the extent that such coverage is agreed to be provided hereunder.

Tenant will cause all subtenants and licensees of the Premises claiming by, under, or through Tenant to execute and deliver to Landlord a waiver of claims similar to the waiver in this Section 10.3.2.4 and to obtain such waiver of subrogation rights endorsements. If either party hereto fails to maintain the waivers set forth in items (i) and (ii) above, the party not maintaining the requisite waivers shall indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless the other party for, from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of, resulting from, or relating to, such failure.

ARTICLE 11
DAMAGE AND DESTRUCTION
11.1 Repair of Damage to Premises by Landlord. If the Base Building or any Common Areas serving or providing access to the Premises shall be damaged by a fire or any other casualty (collectively, a “Casualty”), Landlord shall promptly and diligently, subject to reasonable delays for insurance adjustment or other matters beyond Landlord’s reasonable control, and subject to all other terms of this Article 11, restore the Base Building and such Common Areas. Such restoration shall be to substantially the same condition of the Base Building and the Common Areas prior to the Casualty, except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other laws or by the holder of a mortgage on the Building or Project or any other modifications to the Common Areas deemed desirable by Landlord, which are consistent with the character of the Project, provided that access to the Premises and any common restrooms serving the Premises shall not be materially impaired. Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord upon the occurrence of any damage to the Premises resulting from a Casualty, and Tenant shall promptly inform its insurance carrier of any such damage. Upon notice (the “Landlord Repair Notice”) to Tenant from Landlord, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under Section 10.3 of this Lease, and Landlord shall repair any injury or damage to the Improvements and the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Improvements and the Original Improvements to their original condition; provided that if the cost of such repair by Landlord exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant’s insurance carrier, as assigned by Tenant, the cost of such repairs shall be paid by
-40- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
Tenant to Landlord prior to Landlord’s commencement of repair of the damage. In the event that Landlord does not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice within sixty (60) days following the date the Casualty becomes known to Landlord, Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, repair any injury or damage to the Improvements and the Original Improvements installed in the Premises and shall return such Improvements and Original Improvements to their original condition. Whether or not Landlord delivers a Landlord Repair Notice, prior to the commencement of construction, Tenant shall submit to Landlord, for Landlord’s review and approval, all plans, specifications and working drawings relating thereto, and Landlord shall select the contractors to perform such improvement work. Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or its visitors, or injury to Tenant’s business resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof; provided however, that if such Casualty shall have damaged the Premises or Common Areas necessary to Tenant’s occupancy, and the Premises is not occupied by Tenant as a result thereof, then during the time and to the extent the Premises is unfit for occupancy, the Rent shall be abated in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which is unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. In the event that Landlord shall not deliver the Landlord Repair Notice, Tenant’s right to rent abatement pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate as of the date which is reasonably determined by Landlord to be the date Tenant should have completed repairs to the Premises assuming Tenant used reasonable due diligence in connection therewith.
11.2 Landlord’s Option to Repair. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises, Building and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building or Project shall be damaged by Casualty, whether or not the Premises is affected, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) the damage is not fully covered by Landlord’s insurance policies; (iv) Landlord decides to rebuild the Building or Common Areas so that they will be substantially different structurally or architecturally; (v) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; or (vi) any owner of any other portion of the Project, other than Landlord, does not intend to repair the damage to such portion of the Project; provided, however, that if the Premises and/or access thereto are materially damaged by Casualty, and Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord’s termination right as provided above, and either the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after being commenced, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant. At any time, from time to time, after the date occurring sixty (60) days after the date of the damage, Tenant may request that Landlord inform Tenant of Landlord’s reasonable opinion of
-00- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
the date of completion of the repairs and Landlord shall respond to such request within five (5) business days (“Landlord’s Repair Estimate Notice”). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions is satisfied: (a) the damage to the Project by Casualty was not caused by the gross negligence or intentional act of Tenant or its partners or subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors; (b) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods); (c) as a result of the damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business from the Premises; and, (d) as a result of the damage to the Project, Tenant does not occupy or use the Premises at all. In the event this Lease is terminated in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord) all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant’s insurance required under items (ii) and (iii) of Section 10.3.2 of this Lease. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions is satisfied: (a) a material portion of the Premises is rendered untenantable by a Casualty during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; (b) the Casualty was not caused by the negligence or intentional act of Tenant or any Tenant Parties; (c) Tenant is not then in default under this Lease beyond the requisite notice and cure periods set forth under this Lease; (d) as a result of the Casualty, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business from the Premises; (e) Landlord notifies Tenant that such damage cannot reasonably be repaired (as determined by Landlord) within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Casualty; and (f) Tenant provides Landlord with written notice (“Landlord’s Damage Notice”) of its intent to terminate within thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Damage Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Landlord has the right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Section 11.2, Landlord agrees to exercise such right in a nondiscriminatory fashion among leases affecting the Project. Consideration of the following factors in arriving at its decision shall not be deemed discriminatory: length of term remaining on this Lease, time needed to repair and restore, costs of repair and restoration not covered by insurance proceeds, Landlord’s plans to repair and restore Common Areas serving the Premises, Landlord’s plans for repair and restoration of the Building, and other relevant factors of Landlord’s decision as long as they are applied to Tenant in the same manner as other tenants of the Project;
11.3 Waiver of Statutory Provisions. The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and any statute or regulation of the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project.

ARTICLE 12
NONWAIVER
No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party hereto unless expressly waived in a writing signed thereby. The waiver by either party hereto of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No acceptance of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to receive the full amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment or any letter accompanying such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord’s right to recover the full amount due. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in anyway alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant’s right of possession hereunder, or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.
ARTICLE 13
CONDEMNATION
If the whole or any part of the Premises, Building or Project shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in such manner as to require the use, reconstruction or remodeling of any part of the Premises, Building or Project, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument n lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the rentable square feet of the Premises is taken, or if access to the Premises is substantially impaired, in each case for a period in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days, Tenant shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority. Tenant shall not because of such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant’s personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking.

14.1 Transfers. Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or enter into any license or concession agreements or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant and its employees and contractors (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as “Transfers” and any person or entity to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a “Transferee”). If Tenant desires Landlord’s consent to any Transfer, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the “Transfer Notice”) shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the “Subject Space”), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including calculation of the “Transfer Premium”, as that term is defined in Section 14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, including all existing operative documents to be executed to evidence such Transfer or the agreements incidental or related to such Transfer, provided that Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to utilize Landlord’s standard Transfer documents in connection with the documentation of such Transfer, (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner thereof, business credit and personal references and history of the proposed Transferee and any other information required by Landlord which will enable Landlord to determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee’s business and proposed use of the Subject Space and (v) an executed estoppel certificate from Tenant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E. Any Transfer made without Landlord’s prior written consent shall, at Landlord’s option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord’s option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Whether or not Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord’s review and processing fees, as well as any reasonable professional fees (including, without limitation, attorneys’, accountants’, architects’, engineers’ and consultants’ fees) incurred by Landlord, within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord; provided that such review and processing fees and attorneys’ fees and costs shall not exceed Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($5,000.00) in the aggregate for any one (1) particular Transfer in the ordinary course of business. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that a proposed Transfer shall not be considered “in the ordinary course of business” if such particular proposed Transfer involves the review of documentation by Landlord on more than two (2) occasions.

14.2 Landlord’s Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
14.2.1 The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project, or would be a significantly less prestigious occupant of the Building than Tenant;
14.2.2 The Transferee intends to use the Subject Space for purposes which are not permitted under this Lease;
14.2.3 The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;
14.2.4 The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested;
14.2.5 The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease;
14.2.6 The terms of the proposed Transfer will allow the Transferee to exercise a right of renewal, right of expansion, right of first offer, or other similar right held by Tenant (or will allow the Transferee to occupy any space at the Building pursuant to any such right that has not previously been exercised by Tenant); or
14.2.7 Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, (i) occupies space in the Project at the time of the request for consent(provided that Landlord will not withhold its consent solely because the proposed Transferee is an occupant of the Project if Landlord does not have reasonably comparable space available for lease to such proposed Transferee in the Project within six (6) months of the anticipated commencement of the proposed Transfer); or (ii) is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the Project at such time, or (iii) has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6)-month period immediately preceding the Transfer Notice; or
14.2.8 The Transferee does not intend to occupy the entire Premises and conduct its business therefrom for a substantial portion of the term of the Transfer.
If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section 14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section 14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord’s consent, but not later than the expiration of said six (6)- month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section 14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would
-45- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section 14.2, or (ii) which would cause the proposed Transfer to be more favorable to the Transferee than the terms set forth in Tenant’s original Transfer Notice, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14 (including Landlord’s right of recapture, if any, under Section 14.4 of this Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under this Section 14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought without any monetary damages, and Tenant hereby waives the provisions of Section 1995.310 of the California Civil Code, or any successor statute, and all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee. Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Landlord from any and all liability, losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action and proceedings involving any third party or parties (including without limitation Tenant’s proposed subtenant or assignee) who claim they were damaged by Landlord’s wrongful withholding or conditioning of Landlord’s consent.
14.3 Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any “Transfer Premium,” as that term is defined in this Section 14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee. “Transfer Premium” shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred, after deducting the reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant for (i) any changes, alterations and improvements to the Premises in connection with the Transfer, (ii) any free base rent or other economic concessions reasonably provided to the Transferee, and (iii) any brokerage commissions and attorneys’ fees in connection with the Transfer. “Transfer Premium” shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer.
14.4 Landlord’s Option as to Subject Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 14, Landlord shall have the option except in the case of a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee pursuant to Section 14.7, by giving written notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Transfer Notice, in the event of a proposed assignment of this Lease or sublease that would (i) result in fifty percent (50%) or more of the Premises (when aggregated with all prior subleases then in effect) being subject to a sublease, or (ii) be for a term of more than fifty percent (50%) of the then-remaining Lease Term, or (iii) result in a full floor of the Premises being subject to a sublease, to recapture the Subject Space. Such recapture notice shall cancel and terminate this Lease with respect to the Subject Space as of the date stated in the Transfer Notice as the effective date of the proposed Transfer until the last day of the term of the Transfer as set forth in the Transfer Notice (or at Landlord’s option, shall cause the Transfer to be made to Landlord or its agent, in which case the parties shall execute the Transfer documentation promptly thereafter). In the event of a recapture by Landlord, if this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein
-46- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same. If Landlord declines, or fails to elect in a timely manner to recapture the Subject Space under this Section 14.4, then, provided Landlord has consented to the proposed Transfer, Tenant shall be entitled to proceed to Transfer the Subject Space to the proposed Transferee, subject to provisions of this Article 14.
14.5 Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the TCCs of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Landlord’s request a complete statement, certified by an independent certified public accountant, or Tenant’s chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord’s consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from any liability under this Lease, including, without limitation, in connection with the Subject Space. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right, upon not less than five (5) business days’ advance written notice to Tenant, to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, subject to the following limitations: (A) the audit must occur during the normal business hours of Tenant at Tenant’s office in the Building or at such other location as Tenant may reasonably designate in the San Francisco Bay Area; (B) the audit shall last no longer than one (1) business day; (C) Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have no right to make copies of Tenant’s books, records and papers; (D) Landlord shall not conduct any such audit more than once during any twelve (12) month period (provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall no longer apply if the Transfer Premium is found at any time to be understated) by more than three percent (3%); and (E) Landlord shall enter into Landlord’s standard commercially reasonable form of confidentiality agreement with Tenant, which agreement shall cover confidential financial information provided by Tenant to Landlord in connection with such audit. If the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after demand, pay the deficiency, and if understated by more than five percent (5%), Tenant shall pay Landlord’s costs of such audit up to a maximum of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00).
14.6 Additional Transfers. For purposes of this Lease, the term “Transfer” shall also include (i) if Tenant is a partnership, the withdrawal or change, voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, of more than fifty percent (50%) or more of the partners, or transfer of more than fifty percent (50%) or more of partnership interests, within a twelve (12)-month period, or the dissolution of the partnership without immediate reconstitution thereof, and (ii) if Tenant is a closely held corporation (i.e., whose stock is not publicly held and not traded through an exchange or over the counter), (A) the dissolution, merger, consolidation or other reorganization of Tenant, subject to Section 14.8 below or (B) the sale or other transfer of an aggregate of more than fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting shares of Tenant (other than to immediate family members by reason of gift or death), within a twelve (12)-month period subject to Section 14.8 below, or (C) the sale, mortgage, hypothecation or pledge of an aggregate of more than fifty
-47- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
percent (50%) or more of the value of the unencumbered assets of Tenant within a twelve (12)-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 14.6 and except as set forth in item (B) of Section 14.8 below), if Tenant is a corporation, so long as Tenant is publicly traded on a major over-the-counter stock exchange, the ordinary transfer of shares over the counter shall be deemed not to be a Transfer for purposes of this Section 14.6.
14.7 Occurrence of Default. Any Transfer hereunder shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this Lease, and if this Lease shall be terminated during the term of any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to: (i) treat such Transfer as cancelled and repossess the Subject Space by any lawful means, or (ii) require that such Transferee attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under any such Transfer. If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Tenant’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all payments under or in connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply towards Tenant’s obligations under this Lease) until such default is cured. Such Transferee shall rely on any representation by Landlord that Tenant is in default hereunder, without any need for confirmation thereof by Tenant. Upon any assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease. No collection or acceptance of rent by Landlord from any Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 14 or the approval of any Transferee or a release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing. In no event shall Landlord’s enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any Transferee be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person. If Tenant’s obligations hereunder have been guaranteed, Landlord’s consent to any Transfer shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such Transfer.
14.8 Deemed Consent Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, (A) an assignment or subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant (an entity which is controlled by, controls, or is under common control with, Tenant as of the date of this Lease), (B) a sale of corporate shares of capital stock in Tenant in connection with an initial public offering of Tenant’s stock on a nationally-recognized stock exchange, (C) an assignment of the Lease to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of the stock or assets of Tenant, or (D) an assignment of the Lease to an entity which is the resulting entity of a merger, consolidation or reorganization of Tenant during the Lease Term, shall not be deemed a Transfer requiring Landlord’s consent under this Article 14 (any such assignee or sublessee described in items (A) through (D) of this Section 14.8 hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Transferee”), provided that (i) Tenant notifies Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any such assignment or sublease and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such Transfer or Permitted Transferee as set forth above (or promptly after such transaction if disclosure is prohibited by legally enforceable confidentiality requirements or Applicable Law), (ii) Tenant is not in default, beyond the applicable notice and cure period, and such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease, (iii) such Permitted Transferee shall be of a character and reputation consistent with the quality of the Building, (iv) such Permitted Transferee shall have a tangible net worth (not including goodwill as an asset) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“Net Worth”) at least equal to Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000.00), (v) no assignment or sublease relating to
-48- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
this Lease, whether with or without Landlord’s consent, shall relieve Tenant from any liability under this Lease, and (vi) the liability of such Permitted Transferee under either an assignment or sublease shall be joint and several with Tenant. An assignee of Tenant’s entire interest in this Lease who qualifies as a Permitted Transferee may also be referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee Assignee.” “Control,” as used in this Section 14.8, shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interest in, any person or entity.
ARTICLE 15
SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND
REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
15.1 Surrender of Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in writing by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises or terminate any or all such sublessees or subtenancies.
15.2 Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, in addition to Tenant’s obligations under Section 29.32, below, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, business and trade fixtures, free-standing cabinet work, server and telephone equipment, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its sole discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises and Building resulting from such removal.
-49- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
ARTICLE 16
HOLDING OVER
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term, with the express written consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate of one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month tenancy shall be subject to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein. If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term without the express written consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be a tenancy at sufferance, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and in such case daily damages in any action to recover possession of the Premises shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the greater of (i) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease (calculated on a per diem basis) or (ii) the fair market rental rate for the Premises as of the commencement of such holdover period. Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to vacate and deliver possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Tenant holds over without Landlord’s express written consent, and tenders payment of rent for any period beyond the expiration of the Lease Term by way of check (whether directly to Landlord, its agents, or to a lock box) or wire transfer, Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the cashing of such check or acceptance of such wire shall be considered inadvertent and not be construed as creating a month-to-month tenancy, provided Landlord refunds such payment to Tenant promptly upon learning that such check has been cashed or wire transfer received. Tenant acknowledges that any holding over without Landlord’s express written consent may compromise or otherwise affect Landlord’s ability to enter into new leases with prospective tenants regarding the Premises. Therefore, if Tenant fails to vacate and deliver the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease within thirty (30) days after Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord has entered into a lease for the Premises or has received a bona fide offer to lease the Premises, and that Landlord will be unable to deliver possession, or perform improvements, due to Tenant’s holdover, then, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to vacate and deliver, and any losses suffered by Landlord, including lost profits, resulting from such failure to vacate and deliver. Tenant agrees that any proceedings necessary to recover possession of the Premises, whether before or after expiration of the Lease Term, shall be considered an action to enforce the terms of this Lease for purposes of the awarding of any attorney’s fees in connection therewith.
ARTICLE 17
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E, attached hereto (or such other form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser
-50- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
of all or any portion of the Project. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord with a current financial statement and financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shallbe prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”); provided that Landlord acknowledges that as of the date hereof, Tenant’s financial statements are not prepared according to GAAP and accordingly, until such time as Tenant has GAAP financial statements available (which shall be no later than January 1, 2019), Tenant shall provide such financial statement in the form as is provided to Tenant’s board of directors and otherwise in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, and, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the Original Tenant only, in the event that (i) stock in the entity which constitutes Original Tenant under this Lease is publicly traded on a national stock exchange, and (ii) Original Tenant has its own, separate and distinct 10K and 10Q filing requirements (as opposed joint or cumulative filings with an entity that controls Original Tenant or with entities which are otherwise affiliates of Original Tenant), then Original Tenant’s obligation to provide Landlord with a copy of its most recent current financial statement shall be deemed satisfied. Failure of Tenant to timely execute, acknowledge and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not request financial statements more than once in each consecutive one (1) year period during the Lease Term unless (i) Tenant is in default, (ii) Landlord reasonably believes that there has been an adverse change in Tenant’s financial position since the last financial statement provided to Landlord, or (iii) requested in connection with a proposed financing, sale or transfer of any portion of Landlord’s interest in the Building or Project.
ARTICLE 18
SUBORDINATION
This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any mortgage, trust deed or other encumbrances now or hereafter in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages, trust deeds or other encumbrances, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof (or if any ground lease is terminated), to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the lessor under this Lease, provided such lienholder or purchaser or ground lessor shall agree to accept this Lease and not disturb Tenant’s occupancy, so long as Tenant timely pays the rent and observes and performs the TCCs of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant. Landlord’s interest herein may be assigned as security at any time to
-51- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
any lienholder. Tenant shall, within ten (10) days of request by Landlord, execute such further reasonable instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that as of the date of this Lease, there is no mortgage, trust deed or ground lease in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof.
ARTICLE 19
DEFAULTS; REMEDIES
19.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default of this Lease by Tenant:
19.1.1 Any failure by Tenant to pay any Rent or any other charge required to be paid under this Lease, or any part thereof, when due unless such failure is cured within five (5) business days after notice; or
19.1.2 Except where a specific time period is otherwise set forth for Tenant’s performance in this Lease, in which event the failure to perform by Tenant within such time period shall be a default by Tenant under this Section 19.1.2, any failure by Tenant to observe or perform any other provision, covenant or condition of this Lease to be observed or performed by Tenant where such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; provided that if the nature of such default is such that the same cannot reasonably be cured within a thirty (30) day period, Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if it diligently commences such cure within such period and thereafter diligently proceeds to rectify and cure such default, but in no event exceeding a period of time in excess of ninety (90) days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; or
19.1.3 To the extent permitted by law, (i) Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease being placed into receivership or conservatorship, or becoming subject to similar proceedings under Federal or State law, or (ii) a general assignment by Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease for the benefit of creditors, or (iii) the taking of any corporate action in furtherance of bankruptcy or dissolution whether or not there exists any proceeding under an insolvency or bankruptcy law, or (iv) the filing by or against Tenant or any guarantor of any proceeding under an insolvency or bankruptcy law, unless in the case of such a proceeding filed against Tenant or any guarantor the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days, or (v) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant or any guarantor, unless possession is restored to Tenant or such guarantor within thirty (30) days, or (vi) any execution or other judicially authorized seizure of all or substantially all of Tenant’s assets located upon the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease, unless such seizure is discharged within thirty (30) days; or
-00- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
19.1.4 Abandonment or vacation of all or a substantial portion of the Premises by Tenant (provided that temporarily vacating the Premises to facilitate remodeling, repairs, or a Transfer, or for a temporary shutdown of business, shall not constitute a default so long as Tenant continues to pay the Rent and otherwise complies with the TCCs under this Lease and so long as Tenant does not abandon the Premises or allow the Premises to appear abandoned or otherwise adversely impact the normal and customary operations of the Building or the Project (including, without limitation, creating any potential security risk or attractive nuisance); or
19.1.5 The failure by Tenant to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 5, 14, 17 or 18 of this Lease where such failure continues for more than two (2) business days after notice from Landlord; or
19.1.6 Tenant’s failure to occupy the Premises within one hundred fifty (150) days after the Lease Commencement Date; provided, however, that (i) Tenant shall be deemed to have occupied the Premises as of the date that at least one person is consistently working in the Premises during regular business days and hours for the building, and Tenant has received a certificate of occupancy, temporary certificate of occupancy, or signed off permit card (or their legal equivalent) allowing legal occupancy of the Premises and (ii) the one hundred fifty (150) day period shall be extended on a day-for-day basis for each day that Tenant is unable to occupy the Premises as the result of events or circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, delays by the City and County of San Francisco or other governmental authorities or any event of Force Majeure, as defined in Section 29.16.
The notice periods provided herein are in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice periods provided by law.
19.2 Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1 Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim for damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
(a) The worth at the time of award of any unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(b) The worth at the time of 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
-53- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
(c) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the Lease Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus
(d) Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the 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, specifically including but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof for a new tenant, whether for the same or a different use, and any special concessions made to obtain a new tenant; and
(e) At Landlord’s election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted from time to time by applicable law.
The term “rent” as used in this Section 19.2 shall be deemed to be and to mean all sums of every nature required to be paid by Tenant pursuant to the terms of this Lease, whether to Landlord or to others. As used in Sections 19.2.1(a) and (b), above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate. As used in Section 19.2.1(c), above, the “worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
19.2.2 Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee’s breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.
19.2.3 Landlord shall at all times have the rights and remedies (which shall be cumulative with each other and cumulative and in addition to those rights and remedies available under Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2, above, or any law or other provision of this Lease), without prior demand or notice except as required by applicable law, to seek any declaratory, injunctive or other equitable relief, and specifically enforce this Lease, or restrain or enjoin a violation or breach of any provision hereof.
19.3 Subleases of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, succeed to Tenant’s interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord’s election to succeed to Tenant’s interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.

19.4 Form of Payment After Default. Following the occurrence of an event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to require that any or all subsequent amounts paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder, whether to cure the default in question or otherwise, be paid in the form of cash, money order, cashier’s or certified check drawn on an institution acceptable to Landlord, or by other means approved by Landlord, notwithstanding any prior practice of accepting payments in any different form.
19.5 Efforts to Relet. No re-entry or repossession, repairs, maintenance, changes, alterations and additions, reletting, appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord’s interests hereunder, or any other action or omission by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession, or to accept a surrender of the Premises, nor shall same operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant’s obligations hereunder, unless express written notice of such intention is sent by Landlord to Tenant. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease.
19.6 Landlord Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease if Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from Tenant specifying in detail Landlord’s failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursues the same to completion. Upon any such default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of its rights provided at law or in equity. Any award from a court or arbitrator in favor of Tenant requiring payment by Landlord which is not paid by Landlord within the time period directed by such award, may be offset by Tenant from Rent next due and payable under this Lease; provided, however, Tenant may not deduct the amount of the award against more than fifty percent (50%) of Base Rent next due and owing (until such time as the entire amount of such judgment is deducted) to the extent following a foreclosure or a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

ARTICLE 21
LETTER OF CREDIT
21.1 Delivery of Letter of Credit. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, concurrently with Tenant’s execution of this Lease, an unconditional, clean, irrevocable letter of credit (the “L-C”) in the amount set forth in Section 21.3 below (the “L-C Amount”), which L-C shall be issued by a money-center, solvent and nationally recognized bank (a bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local San Francisco, California office which will negotiate a letter of credit, and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC) reasonably acceptable to Landlord (such approved, issuing bank being referred to herein as the “Bank”), which Bank must have a short term Fitch Rating which is not less than “F1”, and a long term Fitch Rating which is not less than “A”(or in the event such Fitch Ratings are no longer available, a comparable rating from Standard and Poor’s Professional Rating Service or Xxxxx’x Professional Rating Service) (collectively, the “Bank’s Credit Rating Threshold”), and which L-C shall be in the form of Exhibit I, attached hereto. Landlord acknowledges and agrees that for the purposes of this Lease, the term “Bank” shall include without limitation Silicon Valley Bank. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points and/or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the L-C. The L-C shall (i) be “callable” at sight, irrevocable and unconditional, (ii) be maintained in effect, whether through renewal or extension, for the period commencing on the date of this Lease and continuing until the date (the “L-C Expiration Date”) that is no less than one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of the Lease Term, as the same may be extended, and Tenant shall deliver a new L-C or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the L-C then held by Landlord, without any action whatsoever on the part of Landlord, (iii) be fully assignable by Landlord, its successors and assigns, (iv) permit partial draws and multiple presentations and drawings, and (v) be otherwise subject to the International Standby Practices-ISP 98, International Chamber of Commerce Publication #590. Landlord, or its then managing agent, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of the L-C if any of the following shall have occurred or be applicable: (A) such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this Lease, or (B) Tenant has filed a voluntary petition under the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy code (collectively, “Bankruptcy Code”), or (C) an involuntary petition has been filed against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, or (D) the Lease has been rejected, or is deemed rejected, under Section 365 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, following the filing of a voluntary petition by Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, or the filing of an involuntary petition against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code, or (E) the Bank has notified Landlord that the L-C will not be renewed or extended through the L-C Expiration Date, or (F) Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, or becomes subject to similar proceedings under Federal or State law, or (G) Tenant executes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (H) if (1) any of the Bank’s Fitch Ratings (or other comparable ratings to the extent the Fitch Ratings are no longer available) have been reduced below the Bank’s Credit Rating Threshold, or (2) there is otherwise a material adverse change in the financial condition of the Bank, and Tenant has failed to provide Landlord with a replacement letter of credit, conforming in all respects to the requirements of this Article 21 (including, but not limited to, the requirements placed on the issuing Bank more particularly set forth in this Section 21.1 above), in the amount of the applicable L-C Amount, within ten (10) days following Landlord’s written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary) (each of the
-56- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
foregoing being an “L-C Draw Event”). The L-C shall be honored by the Bank regardless of whether Tenant disputes Landlord’s right to draw upon the L-C, and regardless of any discrepancies between the L-C and this Lease. In addition, in the event the Bank is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any successor or similar entity, then, effective as of the date such receivership or conservatorship occurs, said L-C shall be deemed to fail to meet the requirements of this Article 21, and, within ten (10) days following Landlord’s notice to Tenant of such receivership or conservatorship (the “L-C FDIC Replacement Notice”), Tenant shall replace such L-C with a substitute letter of credit from a different issuer (which issuer shall meet or exceed the Bank’s Credit Rating Threshold and shall otherwise be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion) and that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Article 21. If Tenant fails to replace such L-C with such conforming, substitute letter of credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 21.1, then, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to declare Tenant in default of this Lease for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto (other than the aforesaid ten (10) day period). Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all costs incurred with the review of any replacement L-C (including without limitation Landlord’s reasonable attorneys’ fees), which replacement is required pursuant to this Section or is otherwise requested by Tenant. In the event of an assignment by Tenant of its interest in the Lease (and irrespective of whether Landlord’s consent is required for such assignment), the acceptance of any replacement or substitute letter of credit by Landlord from the assignee shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion, and the reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Landlord in connection with such determination shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days of billing.
21.2 Application of L-C. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is entering into this Lease in material reliance upon the ability of Landlord to draw upon the L-C upon the occurrence of any L-C Draw Event. In the event of any L-C Draw Event, Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant (except in connection with an L-C Draw Event under Section 21.1(H) above), draw upon the L-C, in part or in whole, to cure any such L-C Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it will sustain resulting from Tenant’s breach or default of the Lease or other L-C Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code. The use, application or retention of the L-C, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Lease or by any applicable law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be required to proceed against the L-C, and such L-C shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the L-C, either prior to or following a “draw” by Landlord of any portion of the L-C, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw upon the L-C. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the L-C conditional to justify the issuer of the L-C in failing to honor a drawing upon such L-C in a timely manner. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that (i) the L-C constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the Bank, (ii) Tenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (iii) Tenant has no property interest whatsoever in the L-C or the
-57- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
proceeds thereof, and (iv) in the event Tenant becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, and/or there is an event of a receivership, conservatorship or a bankruptcy filing by, or on behalf of, Tenant, neither Tenant, any trustee, nor Tenant’s bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Landlord’s claim and/or rights to the L-C and/or the proceeds thereof by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.
21.3 L-C Amount; Maintenance of L-C by Tenant; Liquidated Damages.
21.3.1 L-C Amount. Subject to Section 21.9 below, the L-C Amount shall be equal to [**************************] (the “L-C Amount”).
21.3.2 In General. If, as a result of any drawing by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, the amount of the L-C shall be less than the L-C Amount, Tenant shall, within five (5) days thereafter, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency, and any such additional letter(s) of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Article 21, and if Tenant fails to comply with the foregoing, the same shall be subject to the terms of Section 21.3.3 below. Tenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the L-C or any part thereof and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the L-C expires earlier than the L-C Expiration Date, Landlord will accept a renewal thereof (such renewal letter of credit to be in effect and delivered to Landlord, as applicable, not later than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the L-C), which shall be irrevocable and automatically renewable as above provided through the L-C Expiration Date upon the same terms as the expiring L-C or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. If Tenant exercises its option to extend the Lease Term pursuant to Section 2.2 of this Lease then, not later than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the commencement of the Option Term, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a new L-C or certificate of renewal or extension evidencing the L-C Expiration Date as one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration of the Option Term. However, if the L-C is not timely renewed, or if Tenant fails to maintain the L-C in the amount and in accordance with the terms set forth in this Article 21, Landlord shall have the right to either (x) present the L-C to the Bank in accordance with the terms of this Article 21, and the proceeds of the L-C may be applied by Landlord against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that is not paid when due and/or to pay for all losses and damages that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease, or (y) pursue its remedy under Section 21.3.3 below. In the event Landlord elects to exercise its rights under the foregoing item (x), (I) any unused proceeds shall constitute the property of Landlord (and not Tenant’s property or, in the event of a receivership, conservatorship, or a bankruptcy filing by, or on behalf of, Tenant, property of such receivership, conservatorship or Tenant’s bankruptcy estate) and need not be segregated from Landlord’s other assets, and (II) Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the L-C Expiration Date the amount of any proceeds of the L-C received by Landlord and not applied against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that was not paid when due or used to pay for any losses and/or damages suffered by Landlord (or reasonably estimated by Landlord that it will suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease; provided, however, that if prior to the L-C Expiration Date a voluntary petition is filed by Tenant, or an involuntary petition
-58- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
is filed against Tenant by any of Tenant’s creditors, under the Bankruptcy Code, then Landlord shall not be obligated to make such payment in the amount of the unused L-C proceeds until either all preference issues relating to payments under this Lease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed.
21.3.3 FAILURE TO MAINTAIN; REPLACE AND/OR REINSTATE L-C; LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. IN THE EVENT THAT TENANT FAILS, WITHIN (I) THAT PERIOD SET FORTH IN SECTION 21.3.2 ABOVE, OR (II) THAT PERIOD SET FORTH IN THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE, TO PROVIDE LANDLORD WITH ADDITIONAL L-C(S) IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY OR A REPLACEMENT L-C (AS APPLICABLE), THEN TENANT’S MONTHLY INSTALLMENT OF BASE RENT SHALL BE INCREASED BY ONE HUNDRED FIFTY PERCENT (150%) OF ITS THEN EXISTING LEVEL DURING THE PERIOD COMMENCING ON THE DATE WHICH IS THE LAST DAY OF THE PERIOD IDENTIFIED IN SECTION 21.3.2 OR THE L- C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE), AND ENDING ON THE EARLIER TO OCCUR OF (X) THE DATE TENANT PROVIDES LANDLORD WITH ADDITIONAL L- C(S) IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY AS CONTEMPLATED BY THE TERMS OF SECTION 21.3.2 ABOVE, OR THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE), OR (Y) THE DATE WHICH IS NINETY (90) DAYS AFTER THE LAST DAY OF THE PERIOD IDENTIFIED IN SECTION 21.3.2 OR THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE). IN THE EVENT THAT TENANT FAILS, DURING SUCH NINETY (90) DAY PERIOD FOLLOWING THE LAST DAY OF THE PERIOD IDENTIFIED IN SECTION 21.3.2 OR THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE), TO PROVIDE LANDLORD WITH ADDITIONAL L-C(S) IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY OR A REPLACEMENT L-C (AS APPLICABLE), THEN TENANT’S MONTHLY INSTALLMENT OF BASE RENT SHALL BE INCREASED BY TWO HUNDRED PERCENT (200%) OF ITS THEN EXISTING LEVEL DURING THE PERIOD COMMENCING ON THE DATE WHICH IS NINETY (90) DAYS AFTER THE LAST DAY OF THE PERIOD IDENTIFIED IN SECTION 21.3.2 OR THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE) AND ENDING ON THE DATE SUCH ADDITIONAL L-C(S) ARE ISSUED IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY OR SUCH A REPLACEMENT L-C IS ISSUED (AS APPLICABLE) PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF SECTION 21.3.2 OR THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE). THE PARTIES AGREE THAT IT WOULD BE IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN THE ACTUAL DAMAGES SUFFERED BY LANDLORD AS A RESULT OF TENANT’S FAILURE TO TIMELY PROVIDE LANDLORD WITH ADDITIONAL L-C(S) IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY AS REQUIRED IN SECTION 21.3.2, OR A REPLACEMENT L-C AS CONTEMPLATED BY THE L-C FDIC REPLACEMENT NOTICE (AS APPLICABLE), AND THAT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES EXISTING AS OF THE DATE OF THIS LEASE, THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVIDED FOR IN THIS SECTION 21.3.3 REPRESENT A REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES WHICH LANDLORD WILL INCUR AS A RESULT OF SUCH FAILURE, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT WAIVE OR AFFECT LANDLORD’S RIGHTS AND TENANT’S INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER OTHER SECTIONS OF THIS LEASE (EXCEPT THAT THE PARTIES SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING PROVISION WAS AGREED TO IN LIEU OF MAKING TENANT’S FAILURE TO PROVIDE LANDLORD WITH ADDITIONAL
-59- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
L-C(S) IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE DEFICIENCY OR A REPLACEMENT L-C (AS APPLICABLE) A DEFAULT UNDER THIS LEASE). THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 3275 OR 3369, BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO LANDLORD PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1671. THE PARTIES HAVE SET FORTH THEIR INITIALS BELOW TO INDICATE THEIR AGREEMENT WITH THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PROVISION CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 21.3.3.

LANDLORD’S INITIALS TENANT’S INITIALS
21.4 Transfer and Encumbrance. The L-C shall also provide that Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer (one or more times) all or any portion of its interest in and to the L-C to another party, person or entity, regardless of whether or not such transfer is from or as a part of the assignment by Landlord of its rights and interests in and to this Lease. In the event of a transfer of Landlord’s interest in under this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the L-C, in whole or in part, to the transferee and thereupon Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties, be released by Tenant from all liability therefor, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of the whole of said L-C to a new landlord. In connection with any such transfer of the L-C by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the Bank such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer and, Tenant shall be responsible for paying the Bank’s transfer and processing fees in connection therewith; provided that, Landlord shall have the right (in its sole discretion), but not the obligation, to pay such fees on behalf of Tenant, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice from Landlord therefor.
21.5 L-C Not a Security Deposit. Landlord and Tenant (1) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the L-C or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context, including, but not limited to, Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, as such Section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded (the “Security Deposit Laws”), (2) acknowledge and agree that the L-C (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (3) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations that any such party may now, or in the future will, have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and any successor statute, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (x) establish the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (y) provide that a landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant or to clean the premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in
-60- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
this Article 21 and/or those sums reasonably necessary to (a) compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant’s breach of this Lease, including any damages Landlord suffers following termination of this Lease, and/or (b) compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code.
21.6 Non-Interference By Tenant. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with any payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the L-C, either prior to or following a “draw” by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw down all or any portion of the L-C. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the L-C conditional and thereby afford the Bank a justification for failing to honor a drawing upon such L-C in a timely manner. Tenant shall not request or instruct the Bank of any L-C to refrain from paying sight draft(s) drawn under such L-C.
21.7 Waiver of Certain Relief. Tenant unconditionally and irrevocably waives (and as an independent covenant hereunder, covenants not to assert) any right to claim or obtain any of the following relief in connection with the L-C:
21.7.1 A temporary restraining order, temporary injunction, permanent injunction, or other order that would prevent, restrain or restrict the presentment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C or the Bank’s honoring or payment of sight draft(s); or
21.7.2 Any attachment, garnishment, or levy in any manner upon either the proceeds of any L-C or the obligations of the Bank (either before or after the presentment to the Bank of sight drafts drawn under such L-C) based on any theory whatever.
21.8 Remedy for Improper Drafts. Tenant’s sole remedy in connection with the improper presentment or payment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C shall be the right to obtain from Landlord a refund of the amount of any sight draft(s) that were improperly presented or the proceeds of which were misapplied, together with interest at the Interest Rate and reasonable actual out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, provided that at the time of such refund, Tenant increases the amount of such L-C to the amount (if any) then required under the applicable provisions of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the presentment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C, or the Bank’s payment of sight drafts drawn under such L-C, could not under any circumstances cause Tenant injury that could not be remedied by an award of money damages, and that the recovery of money damages would be an adequate remedy therefor. In the event Tenant shall be entitled to a refund as aforesaid and Landlord shall fail to make such payment within ten (10) business days after demand, Tenant shall have the right to deduct the amount thereof together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the next installment(s) of Base Rent.
21.9 Reduction of L-C. The L-C Amount shall not be reduced during the period commencing as of the date of this Lease and continuing until the last day of the thirty-sixth (36th) full calendar month of the Lease Term (the “Fixed Period”). Provided that (a) on or prior to the applicable “Reduction Effective Date”, as defined below, Tenant tenders to Landlord documentation satisfactory to Landlord evidencing that Tenant has fully satisfied the applicable “LC-Reduction Conditions”, as defined below, and (b) on or after the applicable Reduction
-61- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
Date, Tenant delivers to Landlord an amendment to the existing L-C or a replacement L-C that fully complies in all respect to the requirements set forth in this Article 21 in the amount of the applicable reduced L-C Amount required as of the applicable Reduction Date, then following the expiration of the Fixed Period, the LC-Amount shall be reduced as follows: (i) on or after the first day of the thirty-seventh (37th) Lease Month (the “First Reduction Effective Date”) the L- C Amount shall be reduced so that the new L-C Amount shall be an amount equal to [******************************* ******************] (the “First L-C Reduction”); and (ii) on or after the first day of the fifty-fifth (55 ) Lease Month (the “Second Reduction Effective Date” and each, a “Reduction Effective Date”), the L-C Amount shall be reduced so that the new L-C Amount shall be an amount equal to [***************************] (the “Second L-C Reduction”). For purposes of this Section 21.9, the “L-C Reduction Conditions” shall mean the following: (A) in connection with the First L-C Reduction, (1) Tenant has timely paid Rent and is not then in default (beyond any applicable notice and cure period) under this Lease and has not been in default (beyond any applicable notice and cure period) under this Lease prior to the First Reduction Effective Date, (2) Tenant’s Financial Information (as defined below) for the trailing two (2) consecutive calendar quarters immediately preceding the First Reduction Effective Date reflects a tangible net worth (not including goodwill and other intangible assets) that is greater than Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000), and (3) Tenant has at least Fifty Million Dollars ($50,000,000) in cash and cash equivalents with the Bank and/or such other money-center, solvent and nationally recognized banks that meet the criteria for the Bank as set forth in Section 21.2 above, as evidenced by Tenant’s bank statement(s) from the Bank and/or such other money-center, solvent and/or nationally recognized banks that meet the criteria for the Bank as set forth in Section 21.2 above for the calendar month immediately preceding the First Reduction Effective Date (defined below), which bank statement(s) shall be certified by Tenant’s chief financial officer as being true, correct and complete; and (B) in connection with the Second L-C Reduction, (1) Tenant has timely paid Rent and is not then in default (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods) under this Lease and has not been in default (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods) under this Lease prior to the Second Reduction Effective Date, and (2) Tenant’s Financial Information reflects Tenant has generated positive cash flow (defined as operating cash flow less acquisitions and capital investments) during the trailing two (2) consecutive calendar quarters immediately preceding the Second Reduction Effective Date. If Tenant believes that it is entitled to a reduction in the L-C Amounts pursuant to this Section 21.9, Tenant shall provide Landlord with written notice requesting that the L-C Amount be reduced as provided above (the “Reduction Notice”). Concurrent with Tenant’s delivery of the Reduction Notice, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord for its review Tenant’s financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and audited by a public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Landlord and otherwise in compliance with Article 17, and any other financial information reasonably requested by Landlord evidencing Tenant’s full satisfaction of the First Reduction Condition or the Second Reduction Condition, as applicable (“Tenant’s Financial Information”). Tenant’s Financial Information shall be certified as true, correct and complete by Tenant’s chief financial officer, and at a minimum shall include an income statement, balance sheet and cash flow, and applicable notes thereto. As of the applicable Reduction Effective Date on which Tenant is entitled to a reduction of the L-C Amount pursuant to this Section 21.9, any reductions of the L-C Amount shall be accomplished by Tenant providing Landlord, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, with an amendment to the existing L-C or a replacement L-C that fully complies in all respect to the requirements set forth
-62- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
in this Article 21. In the event that Tenant fails to deliver evidence satisfactory to Landlord demonstrating that Tenant has fully satisfied the applicable Reduction Conditions or if Tenant fails to deliver an amendment to the L-C or replacement L-C as required herein on or prior to the applicable Reduction Effective Date, then the L-C Amount shall not be reduced as of such Reduction Effective Date, but the terms of this Section 21.9 shall remain effective and the L-C Amount shall thereafter be reduced to the amount applicable to such Reduction Effective Date on the date that Tenant delivers to Landlord the Reduction Notice and evidence that Tenant has fully satisfied the applicable Reduction Conditions to Landlord’s satisfaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no such reductions to the L-C Amount shall be permitted in the event that Tenant has been in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods) at any time prior to the applicable Reduction Effective Date. Tenant’s rights pursuant to this Section 21.9 shall be personal to the Original Tenant and Permitted Transferee Assignee and may only be exercised by the Original Tenant or any Permitted Transferee Assignee (and not any other assignee, sublessee or other transferee of Original Tenant’s interest in this Lease).
ARTICLE 22
SUBSTITUTION OF OTHER PREMISES
Landlord shall have the right to move Tenant to other space in the Project substantially equivalent in size and configuration to the Premises, which new space shall be located on or above the third (3rd) floor of the Building, and all terms hereof shall apply to such new space with equal force. In such event, Landlord shall give Tenant not less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of the scheduled date of the move, shall provide Tenant, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, with improvements at least equal in quality to those in the Premises and shall move Tenant’s effects to the new space at Landlord’s sole cost and expense at such time and in such manner as to inconvenience Tenant as little as reasonably practicable. Simultaneously with such relocation of the Premises, the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease stating the relocation of the Premises. Landlord will also pay the cost of printing a new supply of stationery and business cards showing the new address (not to exceed the lesser of the inventory of such items on hand as of the notice of relocation or a three (3) month supply of such items). Landlord shall also reimburse Tenant for the reasonable cost to install and connect telecommunication and data cabling in the new space in the manner and to the extent such cabling existed in the Premises prior to the relocation. From and after the date of the relocation, the Base Rent payable by Tenant hereunder shall be adjusted based on the rentable square footage of the new space; provided, however, that if the new space is larger than the square footage of the Premises prior to the relocation, in no event shall the Base Rent increase as a result of such increased square footage during the remainder of the then-current Lease Term (but the Base Rent shall be subject to the same annual adjustments to Base Rent applicable with respect to the initial Premises as set forth in Section 4 of the Summary).

SIGNS
23.1 Full Floors. Subject to Landlord’s prior written approval, in its sole discretion, and provided all signs are in keeping with the quality, design and style of the Building and Project, Tenant, if the Premises comprise an entire floor of the Building, at its sole cost and expense, may install identification signage anywhere in the Premises including in the elevator lobby of the Premises, provided that such signs must not be visible from the exterior of the Building.
23.2 Multi-Tenant Floors.

ARTICLE 24
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
24.1 In General. Landlord shall comply with all Applicable Laws relating to the Base Building, provided that compliance with such Applicable Laws is not the responsibility of Tenant under this Lease, and provided further that Landlord’s failure to comply therewith would prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, or would unreasonably and materially affect the safety of Tenant’s employees or create a significant health hazard for Tenant’s employees. Landlord shall be permitted to include in Operating Expenses any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under this Article 24 to the extent not prohibited by the terms of Section 4.2.4 above. For purposes of Section 1938(a) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp). As required by Section 1938(e) of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby states as follows: “A Certified Access Specialist (CASp) can inspect the subject premises and determine whether the subject premises comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards
-64- | XXXXXX REALTY 000 XXXXX XXXXXX Postmates Inc. |
under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, the commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit the lessee or tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of the lessee or tenant, if requested by the lessee or tenant. The parties shall mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the premises.” In furtherance of the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows: (a) any CASp inspection requested by Tenant shall be conducted, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, by a CASp designated by Landlord, subject to Landlord’s reasonable rules and requirements; (b) Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for making any improvements or repairs within the Premises to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards; and (c) if anything done by or for Tenant in its use or occupancy of the Premises shall require any improvements or repairs to the Building or Project (outside the Premises) to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand, as Additional Rent, for the cost to Landlord of performing such improvements or repairs. Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Project which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated, including, without limitation, any such governmental regulations related to disabled access (collectively, “Applicable Laws”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Tenant shall not bring upon the Premises or any portion of the Project or use the Premises or permit the Premises or any portion thereof to be used for the growing, manufacturing, administration, distribution (including without limitation, any retail sales), possession, use or consumption of any cannabis, marijuana or cannabinoid product or compound, regardless of the legality or illegality of the same. At its sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all Applicable Laws (including the making of any alterations to the Premises required by Applicable Laws) which relate to (i) Tenant’s use of the Premises, (ii) the Alterations or the Improvements in the Premises, or (iii) the Base Building (including any path of travel to the Premises with respect to the floors of the Building on which the Premises is located), but, as to the Base Building, only to the extent such obligations are triggered by Tenant’s Alterations, the Improvements, or use of the Premises for non-general office use. Should any standard or regulation now or hereafter be imposed on Landlord or Tenant by a state, federal or local governmental body charged with the establishment, regulation and enforcement of occupational, health or safety standards for employers, employees, landlords or tenants, then Tenant agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to comply promptly with such standards or regulations. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant.

ARTICLE 25
LATE CHARGES
If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord’s designee when due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount plus any attorneys’ fees incurred by Landlord by
reason of Tenant’s failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder; provided, however, with regard to the first such failure in any twelve (12) month period, Landlord will waive such late charge to the extent Tenant cures such failure within five (5) business days following Tenant’s receipt of written notice from Landlord that the same was not received when due. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord’s other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord’s remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid within ten (10) days after the date they are due shall bear interest from the date when due until paid at the “Interest Rate.” For purposes of this Lease, the “Interest Rate” shall be an annual rate equal to the lesser of (i) the annual “Bank Prime Loan” rate cited in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release Publication H.15(519), published weekly (or such other comparable index as Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably agree upon if such rate ceases to be published), plus four (4) percentage points, and (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
ARTICLE 26
LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT
26.1 Landlord’s Cure. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation under this Lease, and such failure shall continue in excess of the time allowed under Section 19.1.2, above, unless a specific time period is otherwise stated in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant’s part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.

Except as may be specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with the remedying by Landlord of Tenant’s defaults pursuant to the provisions of Section 26.1; (ii) sums equal to all losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses referred to in Article 10 of this Lease; and (iii) sums equal to all reasonable expenditures made and obligations incurred by Landlord in collecting or attempting to collect the Rent or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all reasonable legal fees and other amounts so expended. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 26.2 shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term.

ENTRY BY LANDLORD
Landlord reserves the right at all reasonable times (during Building Hours with respect to items (i) and (ii) below) and upon at least twenty-four (24) hours prior notice to Tenant (except in the case of an emergency) to enter the Premises to (i) inspect them; (ii) show the Premises to prospective purchasers, or to current or prospective mortgagees, ground or underlying lessors or insurers, or to prospective tenants (provided that Landlord agrees that except in the event (a) Tenant is in default under this Lease, (b) Landlord and Tenant are negotiating for or have agreed to an early termination of this Lease or Landlord intends to relocate Tenant, or (c) Landlord and Tenant otherwise mutually agree to the contrary, Landlord shall not show the Premises to prospective tenants except during the last twelve (12) months of the then current Lease Term); (iii) post notices of nonresponsibility; or (iv) alter, improve or repair the Premises or the Building, or for structural alterations, repairs or improvements to the Building or the Building’s systems and equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 27, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time to (A) perform services required of Landlord, including janitorial service; (B) take possession due to any breach of this Lease in the manner provided herein; and (C) perform any covenants of Tenant which Tenant fails to perform. Landlord may make any such entries without the abatement of Rent, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, and may take such reasonable steps as required to accomplish the stated purposes; provided, however, except for (x) emergencies, (y) repairs, alterations, improvements or additions required by governmental or quasi-governmental authorities or court order or decree, or (z) repairs which are the obligation of Tenant hereunder, any such entry shall be performed in a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises and shall be performed after normal business hours if reasonably practical. With respect to items (y) and (z) above, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of, or access to, the Premises. Tenant hereby waives any claims for damages or for any injuries or inconvenience to or interference with Tenant’s business, lost profits, any loss of occupancy or quiet enjoyment of the Premises, and any other loss occasioned thereby. For each of the above purposes, Landlord shall at all times have a key with which to unlock all the doors in the Premises, excluding Tenant’s vaults, safes and special security areas designated in advance by Tenant. In an emergency, Landlord shall have the right to use any means that Landlord may deem proper to open the doors in and to the Premises. Any entry into the Premises by Landlord in the manner hereinbefore described shall not be deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an actual or constructive eviction of Tenant from any portion of the Premises. No provision of this Lease shall be construed as obligating Landlord to perform any repairs, alterations or decorations except as otherwise expressly agreed to be performed by Landlord herein. Except in the case of an emergency, Tenant shall be entitled to have an employee of Tenant accompany the person(s) entering the Premises, provided Tenant makes such employee available at the time Landlord or such other party desires to enter the Premises, and, except in the case of an emergency, Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with Tenant’s reasonable security measures of which Landlord is notified in advance in writing which may include requiring that the person(s) entering the Premises and any third parties (such as prospective lenders, purchasers or tenants) execute Tenant’s standard confidentiality agreement upon sign-in to the Premises, provided Tenant makes such confidentiality agreement available at the time Landlord or such other party desires to enter the Premises, and further provided that such confidentiality agreement is in a standard form that Tenant requires all non-employee entrants to the Premises to execute prior to entry to the Premises and is on commercially reasonable terms. If Tenant requires a confidentiality agreement from any such party requiring access to space, Landlord shall not be responsible for any delays that occur in Landlord’s response to Tenant’s request for repairs or services. Nothing in the foregoing shall prohibit Landlord from accessing the Premises with a third party without such an agreement in an event of emergency or, following a reasonable period in which Landlord allows Tenant to seek such an agreement, to the extent reasonably necessary to perform maintenance and repairs to the Premises and the Project.

ARTICLE 28
TENANT PARKING
Tenant shall be entitled to rent, on a monthly basis throughout the Lease Term, commencing on the Lease Commencement Date, the amount of unreserved parking passes set forth in Section 9 of the Summary, which parking passes shall pertain to the Project parking structure. During the Lease Term and subject to availability, if Tenant desires to rent additional parking passes (the “Additional Passes”), Tenant may request upon no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord, to rent unreserved parking passes in the Project parking structure on a month to month basis at Landlord’s then prevailing rates for such parking passes; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed as any guaranty that parking passes shall be available for Tenant’s use. In the event that, due to unavailability of parking passes, Landlord is unable to provide Tenant with such Additional Passes for rent or if Landlord requires such Additional Passes for other users of the Project parking structure at any time, the unavailability of such Additional Passes shall not subject Landlord to any liability for any loss or damage resulting therefrom or entitle Tenant to any credit, abatement or adjustment of Rent or other sums payable under this Lease. Either Landlord or Tenant may terminate the use of such Additional Passes by providing no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other party. Tenant shall pay to Landlord (or its designee) for the parking passes rented by Tenant on a monthly basis at the prevailing rate charged from time to time at the location of such parking passes. In addition to any fees that may be charged to Tenant in connection with its parking of automobiles in the Project parking structure, Tenant shall be responsible for the full amount of any taxes imposed by any governmental authority in connection with the renting of such parking passes by Tenant or the use of the parking facility by Tenant. Tenant’s continued right to use the parking passes is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use of the parking facility where the parking passes are located, including any sticker or other identification system established by Landlord, Tenant’s cooperation in seeing that Tenant’s employees and visitors also comply with such rules and regulations and Tenant not being in default under this Lease (beyond the applicable notice and cure periods). Landlord specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design, layout and all other aspects of the Project parking facility at any time and Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project parking facility for purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration or improvements. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes rented by Tenant pursuant to this Article 28 are provided to Tenant solely for use by Tenant’s own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned, subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord’s prior approval.
