3. Demise And Term.
---------------
3.1 Demise And Term. Landlord hereby leases the Premises to Tenant and
---------------
Tenant hereby leases the Premises from Landlord, subject to all of the terms,
covenants and conditions in this Lease. The Premises are a part of the North
Tower and the South Tower. The North Tower and the South Tower are part of an
office project known as the "Project". This Lease shall commence, subject to the
provisions of this Lease, on the date (the "Commencement Date") on which each of
Landlord and Tenant shall execute and deliver to the other party hereto this
Lease (and if one party executes and delivers this Lease on a date later than
the date of execution and delivery by the other party, the latter date shall be
the "Commencement Date" hereunder) and shall expire on the Expiration Date.
3.1.1 Project. The term "Project", as used in this Lease, shall mean
-------
(i) the North Tower and the "Common Areas", as that term is defined below, (ii)
the South Tower, (iii) the land (which is improved with landscaping,
subterranean parking facilities and other improvements) upon which the North
Tower, the South Tower and the Common Areas are located, and (iv) the parking
garage located at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the

-------------
buildings or other improvements added thereto. The Common Areas shall consist of
the "Project Common Areas" and the "Building Common Areas" (which Building
Common Areas shall mean both the Common Areas of the North Tower and the Common
Areas of the South Tower).
3.1.2 Project Common Areas. The term "Project Common Areas", as used
--------------------
in this Lease, shall mean those portions of the Project located on the block
bordered by Flower, Sixth, Figueroa and Fifth Streets, and the J-2 Parking
Garage, and subject to Section 3.1.3, designated as such by Landlord, and may
-------------
include, without limitation, any fixtures, systems, signs, facilities, parking
areas, gardens or other landscaping contained, maintained or used in connection
with the Project, and may include any city sidewalks adjacent to the Project,
pedestrian walkway system, whether above or below grade, park or other
facilities open to the
4
general public and roadways, sidewalks, walkways, parkways, driveways and
landscape areas appurtenant to the Project.
3.1.3 Building Common Areas. The term "Building Common Areas", as
---------------------
used in this Lease, shall mean those portions of the Common Areas located within
each Building designated as such by Landlord, and may include, without
limitation, the common entrances, lobbies, atrium areas, public restrooms,
elevators, stairways and access ways, loading docks, ramps, drives, platforms,
passage ways, service ways, common pipes, conduits, wires, equipment, loading
and unloading areas, parking facilities and trash areas servicing each Building.
Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.1.3, Landlord reserves the right
-------------
from time to time without notice to Tenant (i) to close temporarily any of the
Common Areas; (ii) to make changes to the Common Areas, including, without
limitation, changes in the location, size, shape and number of street entrances,
driveways, ramps, entrances, exits, passages, stairways and other ingress and
egress, direction of traffic, landscaped areas, loading and unloading areas and

alterations to the Project or to any adjacent land, or any portion thereof; and
(v) to do and perform such other acts or make such other changes in, to or with
respect to the Project, Common Areas, the South Tower and the North Tower as
Landlord may deem to be appropriate. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Lease to the contrary, and except to the extent required by applicable laws,
rules, regulations or orders of any governmental agency having jurisdiction,
Landlord shall not exercise its rights under this Section 3.1.3 or under
-------------
Sections 3.1.1, 3.1.2 or 29 hereunder in a manner which would result in the
-------------- ----- --
Project not being maintained or operated in a manner consistent with the
standards of First Class Buildings, nor shall the exercise of Landlord's rights
hereunder result in increasing Tenant's Monthly Rent hereunder or increasing
Tenant's payments of its Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses, except to the
extent that Direct Expenses may include the costs of maintaining and operating
Common Areas affected by changes permitted hereunder, or otherwise materially
and adversely affecting Tenant's rights, obligations or leasehold interest
hereunder.
3.2 Delivery of Initial Premises and Rent Commencement Date.
-------------------------------------------------------
3.2.1 Delivery of Initial Premises. Delivery to Tenant of
----------------------------
possession of the Initial Premises shall be made by Landlord following Tenant's
delivery to Landlord of a written request for delivery of the Initial Premises
("Delivery Notice"). Tenant's Delivery Notice shall be delivered within ten (10)
business days following mutual execution and delivery of the Lease; provided,
however, that if no Delivery Notice is delivered within such period, Landlord
shall deliver the Initial Premises within ten (10) business days following the
mutual execution and delivery of this Lease in accordance with the provisions of
the Work Letter and otherwise in its then "AS IS" condition ("Delivery
Condition"). Tenant may elect to deliver one Delivery Notice with respect to the
Initial 515 Premises and one Delivery Notice with respect to Suite 3700. The
date Landlord so delivers all or the applicable portion of the Initial Premises
shall be referred to herein as the "Delivery Date" with respect thereto. If
Landlord is unable for any reason to so deliver either Premises Portion (defined
in Section 3.2.3) within ten (10) business days following receipt of Tenant's
-------------
Delivery Notice with respect to such Premises Portion, Landlord shall not be
subject to any liability therefor, provided that in the event such Premises
Portion is not delivered within sixty (60) days (the "Last Delivery Date")
following receipt of Tenant's applicable Delivery Notice with respect thereto,
Tenant may elect to terminate this Lease with respect to the Premises Portion
not delivered, by delivering written notice of such election to Landlord within
ten (10) days following such Last Delivery Date, provided, however, that the
Last Delivery Date shall be extended one (1) day for each day that the
Landlord's failure to deliver such Premises Portion is due to Force Majeure (as
defined in Section 31.8) or any Tenant Delay (as defined in the Work Letter).
------------
3.2.2 Rent Commencement Date. The "Rent Commencement Date" shall
----------------------
be, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2.3, the earlier of (i) the date that
-------------
any portion of the Initial Premises are occupied by Tenant for the actual
conduct of business operations (with "business operations" not to include any
activity related to moving in, delivery and installation of furniture, fixtures
and equipment and related activities) and (ii) the first day following the end
of the Construction Period (as defined below) and the Move-in Period (as defined
below) with respect to the Initial Premises. With respect to any Premises
Portion, "Construction Period" means a one hundred fifty (150) day period
commencing with the Delivery Date with respect thereto, and "Move-In Period"
means the period starting the day following the end of the Construction Period
and ending on the second Sunday thereafter, provided that (a) if the
5
Construction Period ends on a day of the week after Wednesday, the Move-In
Period shall end on the third (3rd) Sunday following the end of the Construction
Period and (b) both the Construction Period and Move-In Period shall be extended
one (1) day for each day (or partial day) of Construction Period Delay (as
defined in the Work Letter) in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 of
---------
the Work Letter.
3.2.3 Separate Commencement Dates. Notwithstanding the foregoing
---------------------------
reference to one "Delivery Date" for the entire Initial Premises, Tenant may
elect to issue one Delivery Notice for the Initial 515 Premises and a separate
Delivery Notice for Suite 3700 at different times during the period for giving
notice; (in such case, each of such two separate spaces is referred to herein as
a "Premises Portion"). In the event Tenant elects to issue multiple Delivery
Notices (for multiple Premises Portions ), the Delivery Date, Construction
Period and Move-In Period shall be separately determined for each such Premises
Portion and the occupancy for business operations in any part of any Premises
Portion shall only trigger the occurrence of the Rent Commencement Date for that
Premises Portion. If there are separate Rent Commencement Dates (for separate
Premises Portions), the Rent Commencement Date for the Initial 515 Premises
shall be deemed to be the "Rent Commencement Date" of this Lease (for purposes
of determining the commencement of the Lease Term and the rights and obligations
of the parties hereunder that are based on the "Rent Commencement Date") and the
Rent Commencement Date for Suite 3700 shall have meaning only for determining
the commencement of rent and the commencement of occupancy obligations with
respect to Suite 3700.
3.2.4 Commencement of Construction. Notwithstanding the provisions
----------------------------
of this Section 3.2 to the contrary, with respect to any Premises Portion where
-----------
Tenant has commenced construction work (pursuant to an agreement by and between
Landlord and Tenant permitting such work prior to the mutual execution of the
Lease), the Delivery Date with respect to such Premises Portion shall be the
date this Lease becomes effective by the mutual execution and delivery of this
Lease by Landlord and Tenant (provided that such Premises Portion has been
delivered to Tenant in Delivery Condition (defined in the Work Letter) and
otherwise in accordance with the provisions of the Work Letter), and no Delivery
Notice shall be made with respect to such Premises Portion where any such
construction work has commenced.
4. Confirmation Of Rent Commencement Date.
--------------------------------------
Within thirty (30) days following Landlord's request, Tenant shall confirm,
to Tenant's actual knowledge, the Rent Commencement Date by executing a lease
confirmation in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "C", but Tenant's failure to
-----------
do so shall not affect the commencement of the Lease Term.
5. Monthly Rent.
------------
Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent for the Premises the Monthly Rent for
the Premises as set forth in Section 2.1 (g). Subject to the provisions of
---------------
Section 3.2.3, the Monthly Rent shall be payable in advance on or before the
-------------
first day of the first full calendar month of the Lease Term following the Rent
Commencement Date (the "First Month") and on or before the first day of each
successive calendar month thereafter during the Lease Term; provided, however,
if there are separate Premises Portions, Monthly Rent for each Premises Portion
shall only commence on the Rent Commencement Date for such Premises Portion.
The Monthly Rent for any period during the Lease Term which is for less than one
(1) month shall be prorated based on a thirty (30) day month. The Monthly Rent
and all other rent hereunder shall be paid without prior notice or demand,
without deduction or offset (except as otherwise provided in this Lease), in
lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender at the
time of payment, at the office of the Project or to another person or at another
place (so long as such other place is not located outside of California) as
Landlord may from time to time reasonably designate in writing. The term
"additional rent" means all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord
hereunder (whether or not designated as additional rent).

-------------- -----
shall include, without limitation:

that except for Voluntary Tax Expenses (as defined below), Tax Expenses shall
also include any governmental assessments or the Project's contribution towards
a governmental or cost-sharing agreement for the purpose of augmenting or
improving the quality of services and amenities normally provided by
governmental agencies. It is the intention of Tenant and Landlord that all such
new and increased assessments, taxes, fees, levies, and charges and all similar
assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges be included within the definition
of Tax Expenses for purposes of this Lease;
(ii) Any governmental assessment, tax, fee, levy, or
charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the rent payable

operating, management, maintenance, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises,

reduced to zero (0).
7.1.3.2 The amount of Tax Expenses for the Base Year
attributable to the valuation of the Project and Land, inclusive of tenant
improvements, shall be known as "Base Taxes". If Tax Expenses for any Comparison
Year are less than the Tax Expenses for the Base Year, Tenant's Share of Tax
Expenses shall be deemed zero (0) and no offset shall be permitted against
Operating Expenses for such Comparison Year on account thereof.
7.1.3.3 Any expenses incurred by Landlord in attempting in
good faith to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax
Expenses in the calendar

---------
Landlord shall either, no later than the delivery of the Final Statement for the

of such refund, or credit such amount against Monthly Rent next coming due
hereunder, provided that if Tenant's share of such refund exceeds twenty-five
thousand dollars ($25,000), Landlord shall pay Tenant its share within sixty
(60) days following receipt by Landlord of such refund.
7.1.3.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Lease, there shall be excluded from Tax Expenses (i) all excess profits
taxes, franchise taxes, gift taxes, capital stock taxes, inheritance and
succession taxes, estate taxes, federal, state and local income taxes, and other
taxes to the extent applicable to Landlord's general or net income (as opposed
to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii)
any items includible as Operating Expenses, (iii) any items payable by Tenant
under Section 7.1.4 of this Lease, (iv) any transfer taxes incurred in
-------------
connection with any sale, lease, transfer or financing of the Project or any
portion thereof by Landlord; (v) any fines, interest or penalties assessed
because of Landlord's negligence or illegal acts or its failure to pay any taxes
or assessments prior to the delinquency date; (vi) any taxes or assessments
which are payments to a government agency for the rights to make improvements to
or renovations of the Buildings, Project or surrounding area; (vii) any cost,
interest or tax penalties incurred as a result of Landlord's negligence,
inability or unwillingness to make tax payments (or to file tax filings or
returns) when due; (viii) any assessment made pursuant to the Los Angeles City
Fire Safety Improvements District No. 1 (Ordinances 167158 and successors).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Tax
Expense exists due to Landlord's voluntary election to have the Project included
in an assessment district or otherwise to make the Project subject to the Tax
Expense in question ("Voluntary Tax Expense"), with respect to such Voluntary
Tax Expense such Voluntary Tax Expense shall be included in Tax Expenses only if
the same tax expense is generally imposed on other First Class Buildings and a
majority of such buildings include such expense as a tax expense billed to their
tenants, or if the same tax expense is not generally imposed on other First
Class Buildings, then such expense shall not be included as a Tax Expense if,
and only if, the purpose is to provide Landlord with funds to make capital
improvements to, or for the benefit of, the Project, the costs of which could
not be included as an Operating Expense under this Lease.
7.1.3.5 Tenant's Payment of Certain Tax Expenses.
----------------------------------------
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, in the event
that at any time during the first five (5) years of the Lease Term commencing
with the Rent Commencement Date, (i) any change in ownership (as defined in
Division 1, Part 0.5, Chapter 2 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code) of
the Project, the Buildings or any part thereof, (ii) any similar or comparable
sale, encumbrance or transfer of any portion of the Project, the Buildings or
any interest therein, or (iii) any major alteration of the Project is commenced
and/or consummated, and as a result thereof, and to the extent that in
connection therewith, the Project, the Buildings or any part thereof, is
reassessed so as to establish a new base year for real estate tax purposes under
California law (an "Exempted Reassessment"), then the terms of this Section
-------
7.1.3.5 shall apply.
-------
7.1.3.5.1 The Proposition 13 Tax Increase. For
-------------------------------
purposes of this Section 7, the term "Proposition 13 Tax Increase" shall mean
---------
that portion of the Tax Expenses (or Operating Expenses), as calculated
immediately following any Exempted Reassessment, which is attributable to the
Exempted Reassessment; provided, however, that the term Proposition 13 Tax
Increase shall not include any portion of the Tax Expenses, as calculated
immediately following the Exempted Reassessment, which is attributable to
assessments pending immediately prior to the Exempted Reassessment, which
assessments were conducted during, and included in, such Exempted Reassessment,
or which assessments were otherwise rendered unnecessary following the Exempted
Reassessment; provided that any Exempted Reassessment shall include any real
estate taxes (or Operating Expenses) which are attributable to the annual
inflationary increase of real estate taxes permitted to be assessed annually
under Proposition 13.
8
7.1.3.5.2 First 5 Year Exclusion. During the first
----------------------
five (5) years of the initial Lease Term (following the Commencement Date), any
Proposition 13 Tax Increase shall not be included in Tax Expenses.
7.1.3.5.3 After First 5 Years. After the first
-------------------
five (5) years of the initial Lease Term, any Proposition 13 Tax Increase shall
be included in Tax Expenses.

-----------------------------------
use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue Proposition 8 (or comparable
interim real property) assessed value reductions in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 7.1.3.6. In the event the assessed value of the
---------------
Project for the Base Year is less than the maximum assessed value then allowable
for the Project under Proposition 13, for all Comparison Years thereafter until
a "change in ownership" occurs under Proposition 13, Landlord shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to pursue Proposition 8 or comparable assessed
value reductions to minimize the assessed value of the Project and in the event
that prior to such change in ownership, Landlord fails to use commercially
reasonable efforts to pursue such Proposition 8 or similar assessment reductions
and as a result thereof, the assessed value of the Project for such Comparison
Year and/or subsequent Comparison Years is higher than it otherwise would have
been had Landlord used commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such assessed
value reductions, for each such Comparison Year, Tax Expenses shall be reduced
to equal the tax assessments which would have been in effect if Landlord had
used commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such assessment reduction
proceedings.
7.1.4 Operating Expenses.
------------------
7.1.4.1 Inclusion. Subject to the provisions of Section
--------- -------
7.1.4.2, all expenses of managing, operating, maintaining and repairing the
--------

7.1.4.3 Special Adjustments for Earthquake Insurance. If
--------------------------------------------
earthquake insurance is not obtained in the Base Year Operating Expenses but is
added thereafter, an adjustment shall be made to the Base Year Operating
Expenses to include in Base Year Operating Expenses the costs of earthquake
insurance in the first Comparison Year that earthquake insurance was obtained
(and if earthquake insurance is thereafter canceled, such amount shall not
longer be included in the Base Year Operating Expenses). Furthermore (i) if
the premiums for earthquake coverage included in Operating Expenses during the
Base Year are a prorata or allocated share of the cost for blanket coverage of
the Project and other projects, at no time during any Comparison Year shall the
method of allocation of cost to the Project for its share of the cost of blanket
earthquake insurance coverage be less favorable (for Tenant) than in the Base
Year, or (ii) if the scope of the earthquake insurance is increased over the
Base Year, Operating Expenses for the Base Year shall be increased to reflect
the increased costs, if any, which would have been incurred in the Base Year if
such different basis of coverage had been obtained for the entire Base Year
(with such imputed Base Year costs to be determined on an annualized blended
rate basis if the premiums for such different basis of coverage varied
throughout the Base Year). In the event that damage occurs to the Project due
to an earthquake,
13
the total amount that Tenant shall pay as its Tenant's Share of Operating
Expenses for earthquake insurance deductibles shall not exceed one hundred
thousand dollars ($100,000) in any year or with respect to any earthquake,
including foreshock and aftershocks.
7.1.4.4 Management Fees. Property management fees and expenses
---------------
included within Operating Expenses shall not exceed property management fees and
expenses charged for projects of comparable size (in rentable square feet),
provided, however, in no event shall the property management fee included within
Operating Expenses for any Comparison Year be less than the property management
fee charged and included within Operating Expenses for the Base Year. If
property management fees and expenses are included within Operating Expenses for
any Comparison Year are computed as a percentage of gross revenues, such
percentage applicable to any Comparison Year shall not exceed one hundred fifty
percent (150%) of such percentage applicable to the Base Year. Provided,
however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord may include within Operating
Expenses a fair market management fee (and expenses) derived from a competitive
bid process , provided such bid process includes at least three bidders who are
not affiliated with Landlord and the contract is awarded to the lowest bidder
7.1.4.5 Hazardous Materials Costs. In the event that Landlord's
-------------------------
costs for the remediation of Hazardous Materials (which are otherwise includable
in Operating Expenses hereunder) in any year exceeds one hundred thousand
dollars ($100,000), then for purposes of inclusion within Operating Costs
Landlord shall amortize such total costs over a period of thirty-nine (39)
years.
7.2 Payment For Increases In Direct Expenses. Tenant shall pay, as
----------------------------------------
additional rent, Tenant's Share of the positive excess ("Excess Direct
Expenses"), if any, of Direct Expenses for each Comparison Year over Direct
Expenses for the Base Year in the manner set forth in this Section 7.2. If,
-----------
during any period in the Base Year or a Comparison Year, less than ninety-five
percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Project is occupied by tenants
conducting business operations, then an appropriate adjustment, consistent with
sound and neutral institutional real estate management and accounting principles
(and the provisions hereof) shall be made on a consistent basis to those
components of Direct Expenses which vary with the actual occupancy for that year
to reflect the level or amount of Direct Expenses which would have been incurred
for such year if ninety-five percent (95%) of the rentable area of the Project
had been occupied by tenants conducting business operations throughout that
year. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.2, Tenant's Share of Excess
-----------
Direct Expenses shall be prorated for any partial Comparison Year which falls
within the Lease Term. In addition, if during any particular calendar year
(including the Base Year) Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or
service (the cost of which, if performed by Landlord, would be included in
Operating Expenses) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or
service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord for each period,
Operating Expenses shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the
additional Operating Expenses which would reasonably have been incurred during
such period by Landlord if Landlord had at its own expense furnished such work
or service to such tenant. Landlord shall have the right, from time to time, to
equitably allocate on a basis consistent with the practices of owners of First
Class Buildings (and the calculation of Tenant's Share hereunder) some or all of
the Direct Expenses among different tenants of the Project (the "Cost Pools").
Such Cost Pools may include, but shall not be limited to, separate pools for the
office space tenants of the Project and the retail space tenants of the Project.
In the calculation of any expenses hereunder, it is understood that no expense
shall be charged more than once. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth in this Article 7, when calculating Operating Expenses for the Base Year,
---------
Operating Expenses shall exclude the incremental cost increase resulting from
amortization of the capital items, if any, described on Exhibit "J". If and to
-----------
the extent in any Comparison Year any component of Operating Expenses that is
directly based on utility rates decreases below the amount of such component
Landlord included in Base Year, then in such Comparison Year, to that extent,
the amount included in Operating Expenses attributable to such utility rate
expense shall be not lower than the amount included for such component in the
Base Year.
7.3 Annual Cost of Cost-Saving Devices and Amortization of Capital Items.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The annual cost of any Cost-Saving Device properly includible within Operating
Expenses shall in no case exceed the actual savings in Operating Expenses (which
would otherwise have been incurred during such calendar year had such Cost-
Saving Device not been implemented) generated by use or operating of such Cost-
Saving Device in such calendar year.
14
Subject to the foregoing limitation, a Cost-Saving Device shall be amortized
(including interest thereon at the Reference Rate [as defined below] on the
unamortized cost with the interest rate fixed at the time such expenditure is
placed in service) over its Useful Life or such shorter period of time as
reasonably determined by Landlord. Any Capital Item other than a Cost-Saving
Device shall be amortized over its Useful Life. "Useful Life" shall mean and
refer to that period of time which the subject capital improvement, modification
or addition will be productive and/or useful, without replacement, for the
purpose required and intended at the time of installation. The cost of each
Change In Law item shall be amortized in equal installments of principal and
interest (i.e., a standard mortgage amortization basis with interest thereon at
the Reference Rate on the unamortized cost with the interest rate fixed at the
time such expenditure is placed in service) over its Useful Life. The "Reference
Rate" shall mean the prime lending rate established by BankAmerica plus two
percent (2%) or Landlord's then effective mortgage interest rate, whichever is
lower.
7.4 Manner Of Payment. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement
-----------------
showing Landlord's reasonable estimate of the Direct Expenses for the Base Year
and after the Base Year for each Comparison Year, the amount of Tenant's Share
of any Excess Direct Expenses based on such estimate (each a "Landlord's
Statement'"), which Landlord's Statement shall be in a reasonable line items
form. Commencing as of the first day of each Comparison Year, Tenant shall pay
to Landlord, at the times and in the manner provided herein for the payment of
Monthly Rent, one-twelfth (1/12) of Tenant's Share of any such Estimated Excess
Direct Expenses as shown by Landlord's Statement. If Landlord's Statement is
furnished after January 1st of a Comparison Year, then on or before the first
day of the first calendar month following Tenant's receipt of Landlord's
Statement (provided that Tenant's receipt is at least 20 days prior thereto), in
addition to the monthly installment of Tenant's Share of any such Estimated
Excess Direct Expenses due on that date, Tenant shall pay the amount of Tenant's
Share of any such Estimated Excess Direct Expenses for each calendar month or
fraction thereof that has already elapsed in such Comparison Year.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, in no event shall
Tenant be obligated to pay any amount of Excess Direct Expenses attributable or
allocable to the twelve (12) month period immediately following the Rent
Commencement Date.
7.5 Final Statement. After the end of the Base Year and each Comparison
---------------
Year (including the Comparison Year in which the Lease Term terminates),
Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a final statement ("Landlord's Final
Statement'") showing a reasonably detailed line item description of Tenant's
Share of the annual actual Excess Direct Expenses for the prior calendar year.
Landlord shall diligently endeavor to deliver to Tenant the Landlord's Statement
for each Comparison Year and the Base Year on or before May 31st of the
succeeding year. If Tenant's Share of the amount of actual Excess Direct
Expenses due for a Comparison Year exceeds any amounts paid by Tenant as
estimated additional rent under this Article 7 for such Comparison Year, within
---------
thirty (30) days of delivery of such Landlord's Statement, Tenant shall pay
Landlord the amount of such excess over the estimated payments already made by
Tenant. If the Tenant's Share of the amount of actual Excess Direct Expenses
due for a Comparison Year is less than any amounts paid by Tenant as estimated
additional rent for such Comparison Year, the amount of such overpayment shall
be credited against the installments of Monthly Rent next coming due
(immediately following preparation of Landlord's reconciliation of actual and
Estimated Excess Direct Expenses); provided, however that overpayments for the
Comparison Year in which the Lease Term terminates shall be paid by Landlord to
Tenant within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Landlord's Statement.
Objections by Tenant shall not excuse or xxxxx Tenant's obligation to make the
payments required under this Section 7.5 (or under Section 7.4) pending the
----------- -----------
resolution of Tenant's objection.
7.6 Charges For Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible. Tenant shall
------------------------------------------------
reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days following receipt of Landlord's
written demand for any and all governmental taxes or assessments required to be
paid by Landlord for: (i) taxes attributable to the cost or value of Tenant's
equipment, furniture, fixtures and other personal property (which does not
constitute Tenant Improvements or Alterations) located in the Premises; (ii) at
Landlord's election, taxes attributable to the amount that the market value of
any tenant improvements made in or to the Premises by or for Tenant, is in
excess of sixty and no/100 dollars ($60.00) per rentable square foot of the
Premises (the "Threshold Value"); provided, if Landlord makes such election,
Landlord shall reduce Tax Expenses by the total amount that would be reimbursed
to Landlord assuming all other tenants of the Project with tenant improvements
having a fair market value in excess of the Threshold Value made similar
15
reimbursements; or (iii) such taxes as are assessed upon any document to which
Tenant is a party transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
7.7 Tenant's Share. Notwithstanding the singular use of the term
--------------
"Tenant's Share'" throughout this Lease, "Tenant's Share" shall be defined as
follows: (i) in connection with calculation and payment matters relating to Tax
Expenses, the percentage number corresponding to the fraction derived by
dividing the number of rentable square feet of the Premises by 2,443,000; and
(ii) in connection with matters relating to Operating Expenses, the percentage
number corresponding to the fraction derived by dividing the number of rentable
square feet of the Premises by 2,218,000. For purposes of this Lease, the term
"Project Square Footage" shall mean (i) 2,443,000 in connection with calculation
of Tenant's Share, as the same relates to Tax Expenses, and (ii) 2,218,000 in
connection with the calculation of Tenant's Share as the same relates to
Operating Expenses.
7.8 Tenant's Audit Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to
---------------------
the contrary, Tenant shall have the right, after reasonable notice and at all
reasonable times during Business Hours, to have it and/or its agents and
representatives inspect and photocopy Landlord's Project accounting and Direct
Expense records at Landlord's onsite Project property manager's office. Tenant
and/or its agents and representatives shall have the right, for a period of
three (3) years following the date any Landlord's Statement is delivered to
Tenant, to commence to review and/or examine and photocopy Landlord's books and
records with respect to the Direct Expenses (and the calculation of Tenant's
Share of Excess Direct Expenses) covered by such Landlord's Statement during
Normal Business Hours in Landlord's onsite Project property management office,
upon written notice delivered at least five (5) business days in advance (a
"Review"). Any such Review shall be performed by an accounting firm or a firm
that performs a combination of real estate and accounting services who is
selected by Tenant and who shall not be compensated in any respect on a
percentage of recovery basis. There shall be no more than two (2) Reviews of
Direct Expenses for any twelve (12) month period. Landlord shall only be
required to maintain records of Direct Expenses (i) with respect to each
Comparison Year, for three (3) years following the date the Landlord Final
Statement for such Comparison Year was delivered to Tenant; and (ii) with
respect to the Base Year, for three (3) years following the delivery to Tenant
of the Landlord Final Statement for the first Comparison Year under this Lease.
Any Review of any Comparison Year must commence within three (3) years after
Landlord's delivery to Tenant of the Landlord Final Statement for such year
("Claims Period"), or the right to a Review of Tenant's Share of Excess Direct
Expenses for such year shall be deemed waived. If after any Review, Tenant
continues to dispute the amounts payable (or in the case of a Base Year, the
Direct Expenses covered) under the Landlord's Statement in question, and the
parties are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days thereafter,
either party may demand binding arbitration of the dispute pursuant to the
arbitration provisions set forth in Section 30.18. Tenant agrees that any
-------------
Review performed hereunder shall be at its expense, unless it is determined that
Tenant's Share of Excess Direct Expenses for the entire period under Review was
overstated by five percent (5%) or more, in which event Landlord shall pay for
all of Tenant's costs and expenses of such Review provided in no event shall
Landlord be required to pay costs in excess of the amount Tenant is entitled to
receive as a refund of Excess Direct Expenses. Pending resolution of any
disputes as to Tenant's Share of Excess Direct Expenses, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord any rent adjustments alleged to be due from Tenant as reflected on the
Landlord Final Statement or any invoice issued on the basis thereof. Any
overpayment by Tenant of Tenant's Share of Excess Direct Expenses agreed to by
Landlord following a Review or determined through arbitration (together with
interest thereon calculated at the Interest Rate (defined below) from the date
of overpayment until repaid in full) shall be paid by Landlord to Tenant or
credited against all rent hereunder next due; provided, if this Lease shall have
expired or terminated, Landlord shall, within ten (10) days of the determination
that there has been an overpayment, pay in cash to Tenant such overpayment and
interest. The "Interest Rate" as used in this Lease shall mean the lower of ten
percent (10%) per annum or the maximum lawful rate of interest.
7.9 Tenant's Remedies. In addition to such other limitations on Tenant's
-----------------
damages and remedies as set forth in this Lease, Tenant's remedy for Landlord's
default under any terms of this Section 7 shall be limited to monetary damages
---------
and in no event shall Tenant's remedies include the right to terminate this
Lease.
16

8.1 Permitted Use. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.1, Tenant
------------- -----------
shall use the Premises only for the Permitted Use and shall not use or, to the
extent such use is within its control, permit the Premises to be used for any
other purpose without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be

for the following ancillary uses provided the portions of the Premises so used,
and the extent such uses, are consistent with or compatible with the normal
office operations of a tenant occupying approximately one hundred thousand
(100,000) rentable square feet in a major first class office project (or with

business with Tenant unrelated to the usage of Premises described in (a) through
(j). Subject to Landlord's prior approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, Tenant may contract with third party independent
contractors to provided limited services such as food service, messenger service
or copy service to Tenant at the Premises who shall be deemed to be permitted
occupants of the Premises for this purpose only and that the same shall not be
deemed to be an assignment of this Lease or a subletting of any portion of the
Premises.
Notwithstanding the foregoing statements of specific ancillary uses for the
Premises, in no event shall any such statement imply that Landlord represents
that such any use is permitted under applicable Laws or that Landlord agrees to
perform or permit any work to the Base Building (as defined below) or Building
Systems (as defined below) to accommodate such uses. Any use of the Premises
specified above shall be permitted only to the extent permitted by Applicable
Laws and subject to all other restrictions of the Lease including, without

8.2 Restrictions on Use. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2
------------------- -----------
and Section 31.28, (a) Tenant shall not do or to the extent the same is within
-------------
Tenant's control, permit anything to be done in or about the Premises nor bring

casualty or other insurance for the Project or any of its contents procured by
17
Landlord (except where Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for any such increase
in cost); (ii) obstruct or interfere with the occupancy of other tenants or
occupants of the Project; (iii) cause any nuisance in or about the Premises or
the Project; or (iv) impair the proper and economic maintenance, operation and
repair of the Project or any potion thereof, (b) Tenant shall not use or allow

food or beverages (excluding incidental food and beverage storage, preparation
and consumption reasonably associated with office use) or for the manufacture,
retail sale or auction onsite of tangible merchandise, goods or property of any
kind which is located within the Premises, or as a school or classroom, or for
any unlawful or objectionable purpose; provided, however that Tenant shall be
permitted to conduct periodic training classes and seminars in the Premises and
(c) Tenant shall not commit or permit to be committed any waste to the Premises
or the Project.

8.4.2 Compliance Cost. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord may incur
---------------
costs (a) for complying with laws, codes, regulations or ordinances relating to
Hazardous Material, or (b) otherwise in connection with Hazardous Material
including, without limitation, the following: (i) Hazardous Material present in
soil or ground water; (ii) Hazardous Material that migrates, flows, percolates,

the Project or their agents, employees, contractors or invitees, or by others;
and (iv) material which becomes Hazardous Material due to a change in laws,
codes, regulations or ordinances which relate to hazardous or toxic material,

Sections 7.1.4.2 and 7.1.4.3 Tenant agrees that the costs incurred by Landlord
---------------- -------
with respect to, or in connection with, the Project for complying with laws,
codes, regulations or ordinances relating to Hazardous Material shall be an
Operating Expense, unless the cost of such compliance, as between Landlord and
Tenant, is made the responsibility of Tenant or Landlord under this Lease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following costs shall not be included in
Operating Expenses and shall not be the obligation of Tenant: (a) costs
incurred to comply with laws relating to the removal of Hazardous Material which
was in existence on the Project prior to the Commencement Date, and was of such
a nature that a federal, state or municipal governmental authority, if it had
then had knowledge of the presence of such Hazardous Material, in the state, and
under the conditions that it existed on the Project, would have then required
the removal of such Hazardous Material or other remedial or containment action
with respect thereto; (b) costs incurred to remove, remedy, contain, or treat
Hazardous Material, which Hazardous Material is brought onto the Project after
the date hereof by Landlord and is of such a nature, at that time, that a
federal, state or municipal governmental authority, if it had then had knowledge
of the presence of such Hazardous Material, in the state, and under the
conditions, that it exists on the Project, would have then required the removal
of such Hazardous Material or other remedial or containment action with respect
thereto; and (c) costs incurred in
18
connection with or relating to asbestos abatement, removal, monitoring and
reporting. To the extent any Operating Expense relating to Hazardous Material is
subsequently recovered or reimbursed through insurance, or recovered from
responsible third parties, or by other action, Tenant shall be entitled to a
proportionate share of such Operating Expense to which such recovery or
reimbursement relates.
8.4.3 Asbestos Abatement. Tenant specifically acknowledges that Tenant
------------------
has been advised that asbestos and/or asbestos-containing materials ("ACM") were
---
used in the initial construction of the Buildings, and may have been used in
connection with various additions and improvements made thereafter from time to
time. Tenant has further been advised that Landlord has started, and is in the
process of pursuing, an asbestos abatement program with respect to the Building
under which most, but not all, of the asbestos and asbestos-containing materials
located in the Building will be removed. In certain areas of the Building,
inclusive of central core areas of the Building, it is not practicable to remove
all of the asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, and in those instances the
remaining asbestos and asbestos-containing materials have been or will be
enclosed, encapsulated or otherwise isolated or stabilized in such a manner as
Landlord believes, based upon professional advice received by Landlord, and
consistent with all Applicable Laws, will minimize any health risk of having the
same remain in the Building. Landlord agrees to comply with all Applicable Laws
relating to the treatment of ACM in the Project. Any remediation and abatement
of ACM in, on and about the Premises or the Project to be undertaken by Landlord
shall be performed in accordance with all applicable Laws and, following
completion of such work, upon Tenant's request, Landlord shall provide Tenant
with copies of all air sampling tests, governmental filings and other evidence
of such completion as shall be reasonably required by Tenant, subject to such
conditions relating to the confidentiality of such information as Landlord may
reasonably require. Such ACM remediation and abatement, and all other activities
(including construction, alteration, maintenance and repair activities and
implementation of the O & M program described below) of Landlord and its agents,
contractors or representatives relevant to, bearing upon, or affected by the
existence, handling, monitoring, remediation, abatement, testing or reporting of
ACM (or prevention of recirculation of friable ACM in each Building or through
each Building's HVAC system) shall comply with all Laws applicable thereto and
shall be consistent with the standards and practices of First Class Buildings.
In connection therewith, Landlord shall maintain throughout the Term, so long as
it is consistent with the operation of a First Class Building or required by
applicable Laws, an ACM Operations and Maintenance Program ("O & M Program") for
maintaining compliance with applicable Laws and standards of First Class
Buildings with respect to the presence of ACM, which program shall include (so
long as such procedures are consistent with the operation of a First Class
Building or required by applicable Laws) the monitoring, identifying and warning
to prevent disturbance of remaining ACM on floors on which abatement has been
previously undertaken (including stairwells, elevators and air shafts, core
walls and pipe chase cavities in which ACM may remain). As used herein, the O&M
Program shall mean the following work: (i) removal of all ACM from the ceiling
and exposed interior core columns; (ii) enclosure of window columns, and (iii)
encapsulation of all ACM located under the induction units.
9. Alterations And Additions.
-------------------------
9.1 Alterations Requiring Prior Notice. Except as otherwise provided
----------------------------------
herein, Tenant shall not make or permit to be made any alterations, additions or
improvements (singularly and collectively "Alterations") to the Premises or any
part thereof without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance;
provided, however, Landlord's consent shall not be required (but Tenant must
provide prior written notice) for cosmetic decorations of the Premises such as
installation of wall coverings, wall hangings and built-in cabinetry, or for the
installation of furnishings and, subject to the provisions of Section 11.2,
------------
office equipment (collectively, "Cosmetic Alterations").
9.1.1 Alterations Requiring Prior Consent. Landlord shall not
-----------------------------------
withhold its consent (which consent shall be granted or denied in compliance
with the terms of Section 31.28) to any proposed Alterations (or plans and
-------------
specifications therefor) unless a Design Problem exists, request therefor is
received by Landlord and Landlord has received all information requested by
Landlord in connection with reviewing said request, and then only by contractors
or mechanics approved by Landlord in writing and upon the approval by Landlord
in writing of fully detailed and dimensioned plans and specifications pertaining
to the Alterations in question, to be prepared and submitted by Tenant at its
sole cost and expense. A "Design
19
Problem" is defined as, and will be deemed to exist if such Alteration will (i)
affect the exterior appearance of the Building, (ii) adversely affect the Base
Building, (iii) adversely affect the Building Systems, (iv) interfere with any
other occupant's normal and customary office operation, or (v) fail to comply
with Applicable Laws. Landlord shall, within ten (10) business days of receipt
of such request for consent (together with Tenant's plans and specifications for
the Alterations and all contractors (including subcontractors) who shall perform
them, if any) (the "Review Period"), either (i) consent to such Alterations in
writing or (ii) in the event that Landlord determines, in Landlord's reasonable
judgment (consistent with First Class Buildings) that the Alterations proposed
by Tenant shall create a Design Problem, notify Tenant in writing (together with
a reasonably detailed explanation as to the basis for Landlord's determination),
at which time Tenant shall have the right to cure such Design Problem and
perform the Alterations with Landlord's consent. Landlord, may, if reasonable to
do so based on the scope of such proposed Alterations, require additional time
to consent by notifying Tenant in writing of the need for such additional time
(provided, however that in no event shall the Review Period be extended longer
than twenty (20) business days). Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease
(including the Work Letter) to the contrary, in no case shall Tenant be required
to pay any charge, fee or reimbursement for expense to Landlord in connection
with any Alterations; provided, however, that in the case where any Alterations
(other than Cosmetic Alterations) proposed by Tenant reasonably requires
Landlord's consultation with independent consultants, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord for Landlord's actual and direct third party costs in so consulting
with such independent consultants.
9.1.2 Other Terms. Not less than five (5) days nor more than twenty
-----------
(20) days prior to commencement of any Alterations (including, without
limitation, Cosmetic Alterations), Tenant shall notify Landlord of its estimated
commencement date so that Landlord may post notices of nonresponsibility about
the Premises. All Alterations must comply with all Laws and the final plans and
specifications approved by Landlord in accordance with Section 9.1.1.
-------------
Landlord's review and approval of Tenant's plans and specifications pursuant to
Section 9.1.1 are solely for Landlord's benefit. Landlord shall have no duty to
-------------
Tenant, nor shall Landlord be deemed to have made any representation or warranty
to Tenant, with respect to the safety, adequacy, correctness, efficiency or
compliance with Laws of the design of the Alterations, the plans and
specifications therefor, or any other matter regarding the Alterations. Tenant
shall deliver to Landlord a complete set of "as built" plans and specifications
for each Alteration (which, for this purpose, may be a marked up set of the
record plans and specifications for the Alterations in question.).
9.2 Ownership and Surrender.
-----------------------
9.2.1 Alterations. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.1, upon the
-----------
expiration of the Term, all Alterations, including, but not limited to, cabling,
wall covering, paneling and built-in cabinetry, but excluding movable furniture,
trade fixtures and office equipment ("Tenant's Property'"), shall become a part
of the realty and belong to Landlord. Subject to the provisions of this Section
-------
9.2.1, upon the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term, Tenant
-----
shall, at Tenant's expense, immediately remove any Alterations made by Tenant
which are designated by Landlord to be removed. Tenant may request any time
within the last one hundred eighty (180) days of the Lease Term that Landlord
confirm in writing which Alterations shall be removed and if Tenant makes such
written request and identifies this Section 9.2.1 and Landlord's obligation to
-------------
respond, Landlord shall confirm the Alterations that Landlord will require to be
removed in a written notice delivered to Tenant not less than ninety (90) days
prior to the expiration of the Term. Tenant shall repair any damage to the
Premises caused by such removal. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to
the contrary, in no case shall Landlord have the right to require Tenant to
remove or restore (and Tenant shall be entitled to leave the same in place in
the Premises at the expiration or early termination of this Lease) any
Alteration which both constitutes an improvement which is reasonably compatible
with general business or office use in a first-class office project and is not
the type of Alteration which would likely be unusable by or objectionable to
most subsequent single floor office tenants in the Project. When requesting
Landlord's consent to any Alteration, Tenant may also request by written notice,
which notice shall reference this Section 9.2.1, that Landlord elect either: (i)
-------------
that such Alterations will be removed at the end of the expiration or earlier
termination of the Lease; or (ii) that such Alterations will remain with the
Premises at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. Landlord shall
make such election within thirty (30) days of such notice, which election shall
be binding on Landlord, provided in the event Landlord does not respond within
ten (10) days of receipt of such notice, Tenant shall have the right to deliver
a second notice to
20
Landlord requesting such election, and Landlord's failure to respond to such
second notice within ten (10) days thereafter shall be deemed as Landlord's
election to allow such Alterations to remain at the end of the Term.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to remove the
existing staircase between the third (3rd) and fourth (4th) floors of the
Premises at the end of the Term, provided that if Tenant elects to renew the
Lease with respect to one of the third (3rd) or fourth (4th) floors and not the
other, Tenant shall be obligated to remove such stairwell and restore the
ceilings and floors relating thereto to normal condition of floors without a
staircase.
9.2.2 Tenant's Property. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of
-----------------
the Lease (or within fifteen (15) days thereafter), Tenant shall immediately
remove Tenant's Property from the Premises and repair any damage to the Premises
caused by the removal of Tenant's Property. If Tenant fails to remove Tenant's
Property on or before the expiration or sooner termination of the Lease, and
such failure continues for five (5) business days after delivery of written
notice to Tenant, (i) such Tenant's Property shall be, at Landlord's option,
deemed abandoned by Tenant, (ii) Tenant hereby waives any statutory or common
law rights to Tenant's Property or to assert the means by which Landlord
disposes of Tenant's Property, (iii) Tenant agrees that Landlord may keep or
dispose of Tenant's Property in any manner Landlord desires, without liability
to Tenant therefor, and (iv) Tenant shall be obligated to promptly reimburse
Landlord for any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in removing and disposing
of Tenant's Property (and for any reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in
repairing the Premises as a result of the removal of Tenant's Property),
provided Landlord has given Tenant at least ten (10) days notice that such costs
will be incurred.
9.3 Liens. Tenant shall discharge (or eliminate from record) by bond or
-----
otherwise, from the Premises, the Project and the Land all liens, security
interests and encumbrances (including, without limitation, all mechanic's liens
and stop notices) created as a result of or arising in connection with the
Alterations or any other labor, services or materials provided at the request of
Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates (such liens, security interests and encumbrances
singularly and collectively are herein called "Liens") within a reasonable
-----
period of time following receipt of written request to do so from Landlord. If
Tenant has failed to remove any lien within ten (10) days of receipt of the
written notice provided below, Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all
Liabilities incurred by Landlord or Landlord's Affiliates in connection with the
failure to so remove such lien. If Tenant fails to discharge (or eliminate from
record) any Lien caused by Tenant in accordance with the foregoing, and such
failure continues for ten (10) days following delivery to Tenant of written
notice reasonably describing such failure, then, in addition to any other rights
and remedies available to Landlord, Landlord may take any good faith action
necessary to discharge (or eliminate from record) such Liens, including, but not
limited to, payment to the claimant on whose behalf the Lien was filed.
9.4 Additional Requirements.
-----------------------
9.4.1 Tenant Responsibilities. All of Tenant's Alterations shall
-----------------------
comply with all Laws and subject to the provisions of Section 10.4, Tenant shall
------------
be responsible for, shall comply with, and shall perform any work required by
any and all Laws in any way arising out of or in connection with such
Alterations. Tenant, at its expense, shall obtain all necessary permits and
certificates for the commencement and performance of Alterations and for final
approval thereof upon completion, and shall cause the Alterations to be
performed in compliance therewith and with all customary applicable insurance
requirements, and in a good, first-class and workmanlike manner. Tenant, at its
expense, shall diligently cause the cancellation or discharge of all notices of
violation arising from or otherwise connected with Alterations, or any other
work, labor, services or materials done for or supplied to Tenant or Tenant's
Affiliates, or by any person claiming through or under Tenant or Tenant's
Affiliates. Alterations shall be performed so as not to interfere with any
other tenant in the Project, cause labor disharmony therein, or delay or impose
any additional expense on Landlord in the construction, maintenance, repair or
operation of the Project. Throughout the performance of the Alterations,
Tenant, at its expense, shall carry, or cause to be carried, in addition to the
insurance described in Article 13: (a) Workers' Compensation insurance in
----------
statutory limits, (b) "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by
Landlord and (c) such other insurance as Landlord may reasonably require, with
insurers reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant shall furnish Landlord
upon request with satisfactory evidence that such insurance is in effect at or
before the commencement of the Alterations and at reasonable intervals
thereafter until completion of the Alterations.
21
10. Repairs.
-------
10.1 Tenant Repairs. Subject to the provisions of this Lease and the Work
--------------
Letter, the Premises shall be delivered to Tenant in an "as is" and "all faults"
condition and Landlord shall have no obligation whatsoever to alter, remodel,
improve, repair, decorate or paint the Premises or any part thereof either prior
to or during the Lease Term. Subject to the provisions of this Lease, Tenant, at
its expense, shall keep the Premises and every part thereof in good condition
and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted and shall, upon the expiration or
sooner termination of the Lease Term, surrender the Premises to Landlord broom
clean and in good condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Tenant
waives all rights to make repairs at Landlord's expense under Sections 1941 and
1942 of the California Civil Code or under any similar Laws now or hereafter in
effect. If the Premises require repairs due to the negligence or wilful
misconduct of Landlord or its agents, Tenant shall not be required to make such
repairs under this Section except to the extent such repair work is covered by
insurance that Tenant maintains or is required to maintain hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall have no obligation to repair damage
to the Base Building unless due to Tenant's gross negligence or wilful
misconduct.
10.2 Landlord Repairs. Landlord shall maintain and operate the Project,
-----------------
including the Base Building arid the Building Systems, substantially in
accordance with the standards of First Class Buildings, provided that Tenant
acknowledges that to its current actual knowledge, except for the items
described on Exhibit "L" attached herewith, the Project is currently maintained
-----------
and operated in accordance with such standards. Landlord at its sole cost and
expense (which costs shall be included in Operating Expenses, unless
specifically excluded hereunder) shall maintain and operate the Project in
substantial compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall
not be required to replace or realign the elevator rails of the elevators in
order the improve the quality (i.e., the smoothness) of the movement of the
elevators of the Buildings from floor to floor.
10.3 Tenant Right to Make Repairs. If Tenant provides notice to Landlord
----------------------------
of an event or circumstance which requires the action of Landlord with respect
to the providing of utilities and/or services and/or repairs and/or maintenance
and/or compliance as set forth in Sections 8.4.3, 10.2, 10.4.2, and 11.1 of this
-------------- ---- ------ ----
Lease, and provided Landlord's failure to take such action has a material and
adverse affect on Tenant's conduct of its business within the Premises, and
Landlord fails on a timely basis to provide such action as required by the terms
of this Lease, then Tenant may proceed to take the required action upon delivery
of an additional thirty (30) days notice to Landlord specifying that Tenant is
taking such required action pursuant to this Section, and if such action was
required under the terms of this Lease to be taken by Landlord, then Tenant
shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement by Landlord of Tenant's reasonable
costs and expenses in taking such action plus interest at the Interest Rate. In
the event Tenant takes such action, and such work will affect the Systems and
Equipment, the structural integrity of the Building or the exterior appearance
of the Building, Tenant shall use only those contractors used by Landlord in the
Building for such work unless such contractors are unwilling or unable to
perform such work, in which event Tenant may utilize the services of any other
qualified contractor which normally and regularly performs similar work in the
First Class Buildings. Tenant shall comply with the terms and conditions of
this Lease if Tenant takes the required action. Further, if Landlord does not
deliver a detailed written objection to Tenant, within thirty (30) days after
receipt of an invoice by Tenant of its costs of taking the action which Tenant
claims should have been taken by Landlord, and if such invoice from Tenant sets
forth a reasonably particularized breakdown of its costs and expenses in
connection with taking such action on behalf of Landlord, then Tenant shall be
entitled to deduct from Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease, the amount set
forth in such invoice together with interest at the Interest Rate. If, however,
Landlord delivers to Tenant,within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant's
invoice, a written objection to the payment of such invoice, setting forth with
reasonable particularity Landlord's reasons for its claim that such action did
not have to be taken by Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease or that the
charges are excessive (in which case Landlord shall pay the amount it contends
would not have been excessive), then Tenant shall not be entitled to such
deduction from Rent, but Tenant may proceed to institute legal or arbitration
proceedings against Landlord to collect the amount set forth in the subject
invoice. In the event Tenant prevails in such legal or arbitration proceedings
and receives a final, non-appealable judgment against Landlord, then Landlord
shall pay such judgment to Tenant within thirty (30)
22
final, non-appealable days of such judgment being entered. If such judgment is
not so paid, then Tenant shall be entitled to deduct from Rent payable under
this Lease the amount of such judgment together with interest thereon at the
Interest Rate from the date of Tenant's payment of the costs which are the
subject of the judgment until the date of such deduction.
Disputes concerning this Section 10.3 shall be resolved through the
------------
arbitration provisions set forth in Section 30.18, provided Landlord shall not
-------------
be restricted from seeking an injunction against Tenant's actions through court
proceedings.
10.4 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
--------------------
10.4.1 Tenant shall not use the Premises or knowingly permit
anything to be done in or about the Premises which shall in any material and
adverse way conflict with or violate any present or future law, statute,
ordinance, code, rule, regulation, requirement, license, permit, certificate,
judgment, decree, order or direction of any present or future governmental
authority, agency, department, board, panel or court (singularly and
collectively "Laws"). Except to the extent it is the responsibility of Landlord
to so comply with such Laws under this Section 10.4, Tenant shall, at its
------------
expense, promptly comply with all Laws, and with the requirements of any board
of fire insurance underwriters, directly applicable to the condition, use or
occupancy of the Premises (other than applicable to the Base Building or
Building Systems contained in the Premises except to the extent that the Base
Building and/or the Building Systems are damaged by the actions of Tenant and
such damage is not covered by insurance carried or required to be carried by
Landlord under this Lease) or to the tenant improvements located in or about the
Premises. Tenant shall not use or knowingly permit another person or entity to
use any part of the Premises for the storage, use, treatment, manufacture or
sale of Hazardous Materials; provided, however, that Tenant shall be permitted
to store, maintain and use products in the Premises which are incidental to the
operation of its offices, such as photocopy supplies, secretarial supplies and
limited janitorial supplies, which products contain chemicals which are
categorized as Hazardous Materials. Landlord agrees that the use of such
products in the Premises in compliance with all applicable Laws and in the
manner in which such products are designed to be used shall not be a violation
by Tenant of this Section 10.4.
------------
10.4.2 Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary,
Landlord (and not Tenant) shall be responsible, at its expense, to comply with
all Laws applicable to the Common Areas, Base Building, and Building Systems of
the Project to the extent noncompliance with the same shall materially and
adversely affect Tenant's use of, or operations in, the Premises and with
respect thereto shall promptly take all action necessary to immediately effect
full compliance with such Laws if and to the extent such immediate compliance is
required to comply with any governmental order; provided, however, that in no
case shall Landlord be responsible for any of the foregoing compliance with law
obligations to the extent such compliance is only required due to special (as
opposed to the general range of office use of tenants in the Project) use by
Tenant of the Premises.
10.4.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord and Tenant may
utilize exemptions, variances and grandfather provisions contained in any Law to
effect compliance therewith; provided, however, if Landlord utilizes any of the
same to perform its compliance with law obligations hereunder or under the Work
Letter ("Exemption Compliance") and at a later date, Tenant is required,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.4, to perform such Exemption
------------
Compliance, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for its actual costs in doing so.
11. Services And Utilities.
----------------------
11.1 Landlord's Services. Landlord shall in accordance with the Rules and
-------------------
Regulations furnish to the Premises the following services and utilities, which
shall, at a minimum, be comparable in quality, quantity and consistency to those
same services provided in First Class Buildings:
11.1.1 HVAC. HVAC performing at a level consistent with the
----
Project's HVAC system design specifications set forth on Exhibit "F" when
----------
necessary for normal comfort for normal office use in the Premises, from the
following periods: (1) with respect to the North Tower Premises: Monday through
Friday, during the period from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and on Saturdays during
the period from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; (2) with respect to the South Tower
Premises: Monday through Friday, during the period from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
and on
23
Saturdays during the period from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. (collectively, the
"Normal Business Hours"), except for Sundays and New Year's Day, Memorial Day,
Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and any other
nationally and locally recognized holidays designated in accordance with the
practices of the owners of the First Class Buildings (collectively, the
"Holidays").
11.1.2 Electricity. Adequate electrical wiring and facilities for
-----------
connection to Tenant's lighting fixtures and incidental use equipment, provided
that total capacity for the incidental use equipment and lighting fixtures does
not exceed an average of eight (8) xxxxx per rentable square foot of the
Premises and provided further that the total amount of such use for 120 volt use
shall be (but not shall not be required to exceed unless Tenant complies with
the following sentence) three (3) xxxxx per rentable square foot of the
Premises. If Tenant desires to have the 120 volt electrical use exceed three (3)
xxxxx per rentable square foot, Landlord shall co-operate with permitting the
performance of the work required to install the transformers, panels or other
work (collectively, the "Electrical Upgrade Work") necessary to permit such use,
provided that the costs and expense for such Electrical Upgrade Work shall be
paid by Tenant and shall be performed by contractors reasonably approved by
Landlord. Upon installation, all Electrical Upgrade Work shall be part of the
Building Systems and be deemed the property of Landlord. Tenant shall not be
charged hereunder for any additional electrical consumption in the Premises at
any time until the total consumption within the Premises (excluding therefrom
electrical consumption relating to HVAC and fluorescent lighting) exceeds a
monthly consumption level that would exist if Tenant used an average of five (5)
xxxxx per rentable square foot of the Premises during Normal Business Hours (the
"Electrical Cost Threshold"). Any charges to Tenant for electrical consumption
within the Premises above the Electrical Cost Threshold shall not exceed
Landlord's Actual Cost (defined below) for such excess consumption. "Actual
Cost" means the actual and direct out-of-pocket cost paid by Landlord for the
service or utility supplied without charge for administration, profit or
overhead.
11.1.3 Water. Hot and cold water for use in Base Building lavatories
-----
and other fixtures and amenities consistent with the standards of First Class
Buildings. If Landlord believes that Tenant is consuming water in its Premises
at a rate which materially exceeds the average level of water consumption (on a
per rentable square foot basis) by all tenants and occupants in the Project, and
such matter cannot be resolved following reasonable discussions with Tenant,
then Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to) install a meter to measure the
water furnished in the Premises (the cost of such meter being paid by Tenant).
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord's Actual Cost payments to the applicable utility
service provided for the amount of water used by Tenant which is materially in
excess of such average in accordance with the usage set forth on the meter, plus
an administrative fee consistent with administrative fees of First Class
Buildings reasonably established by Landlord. In all events, Tenant shall not
waste or knowingly permit the waste of water.
11.1.4 Cleaning Services. Cleaning services except the date of
-----------------
observation of the Holidays, in and about the Premises, which services shall be
provided as set forth in the attached Exhibit "G".
-----------
11.1.5 Elevator Service. Landlord shall provide first class
----------------
nonexclusive, non-attended automatic passenger elevator service to and from the
Premises during Normal Business Hours consistent with the service provided by
First Class Buildings; provided, however, that Landlord shall provide a minimum
of three (3) passenger elevators serving Tenant's floors at all times during
Normal Business Hours. Landlord shall also provide passenger elevator service
(consisting of at least one (1) passenger elevator serving Tenant's floors) at
all times other than Normal Business Hours. Freight elevator service will also
be provided to Tenant after Normal Business Hours at all times upon reasonable
advance notice to Landlord's property manager. Freight elevator service after
Normal Business Hours shall be provided by Landlord, provided Tenant will pay
the Building's customary charge for after-hours freight elevator service, which
is currently thirty-five and no/100 dollars ($35.00) per hour. The costs
charged to Tenant for after-hours freight elevator service shall be subject to
reflect an incremental increase in Landlord's Actual Costs for providing such
service.
11.1.6 Security. Tenant and its employees, customers and contractors
--------
(and those of its subleases and permitted occupants) shall be permitted access
to the Premises and the Project's parking facilities seven (7) days per week and
twenty-four (24) hours per day, provided such access may be limited, (consistent
with the standards of First Class Buildings) by
24
Landlord's Rules and Regulations of the Project and access to parking shall only
be to exercise the parking rights granted in this Lease. Landlord shall provide
security personnel to escort employees and visitors of Tenant (and its
sublessees and permitted occupants) from the Building lobby to the Project
parking facilities during hours other than Normal Business Hours consistent with
the operating standards of First Class Buildings. In addition to the foregoing,
Tenant and Tenant's contractors shall have the right (without further payment of
rent to Landlord) to install, repair, replace, remove, operate and maintain such
Tenant security systems and cable, wiring, conduits or other equipment
incidental to such security systems (the "Tenant Security Systems") as
reasonably desired by Tenant in, on or upon the Premises and in the common
stairwells and shafts in the core of the Building(s) at such locations as
reasonably requested by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord. The Tenant
Security Systems shall be designed and operated so as not to interfere with the
systems and operations of the Building. The Tenant Security Systems shall remain
the property of Tenant and shall be removed by Tenant (and all damage to the
Building(s) caused by the installation, operation and such removal repaired by
Tenant) upon delivery of the Premises to Landlord at the expiration or sooner
termination of this Lease. Landlord shall, at no cost to Landlord, use
reasonable efforts to coordinate its security system with Tenant Security
Systems and to otherwise cooperate with Tenant's installation, alteration and
operation of a security system for its Premises. If Landlord incurs costs in
connection with co-ordinating the installation and operation of the Tenant
Security systems with the systems and operations of the Building, following
Landlord's notice of the costs that will be incurred, Tenant will reimburse
Landlord for such costs within thirty (30) days following Landlord's request for
such reimbursement.
11.1.7 Common Areas. Landlord shall operate, maintain, clean, light,
------------
heat, ventilate and air-condition the Common Areas to a standard no less than
that which is comparable to the First Class Buildings and to the extent
consistent with the standards of First Class Buildings provide both Buildings
with lobby visitor reception services and after hours access monitoring.
11.1.8 Directory Board. At the lobby directory of each Building,
---------------
Tenant shall, at no cost to Tenant, be furnished with up to two (2) designated
names (identifying Tenant, its Affiliates, sublessees and assignees) per one
thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the space of the Initial Premises
leased to Tenant in such Building. Additional lines of directory space will be
added at a ratio and cost to Tenant to the extent consistent with the standards
of First Class Buildings.
11.1.9 Access to Special Tenant Areas, Shafts, Risers and Conduits.
-----------------------------------------------------------
11.1.9.1 In addition to Tenant's rights (and Landlord's
obligations with respect to intra-Building risers pursuant to the Work Letter),
subject to Landlord's prior review and approval of specific plans describing
Tenant's intended use, provide Tenant with reasonable access to and use (taking
into account the size of the Premises and any other space leased or subleased by
Tenant in the Project (including without limitation any space on the C-Level of
the Project), the needs of a tenant of the size of Tenant and the demands of
modern telecommunications technology) of (a) intra-Building telephone network
cabling and equipment within the control of Landlord, and (b) intra-Building
risers and conduits to allow installation, alteration, repair, maintenance and
replacement of such telecommunications cabling as Tenant may require to operate
its telecommunications system servicing the Premises and any other space leased
or subleased by Tenant in the Project (including without limitation any space on
the C-Level of the Project); provided such uses do not interfere with the
Building systems or operations or the other uses by other tenants of such areas.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby acknowledges and agrees that
pursuant to the Work Letter, Landlord shall provide Tenant commercially
reasonable room in the intra-Building riser of the North Tower for the
installation of Tenant's cabling to accommodate the commercially reasonable
telecommunication needs of Tenant (taking into account the size of the Premises
and any other space leased or subleased by Tenant in the Project (including
without limitation any space on the C-Level of the Project)).
11.1.9.2 Landlord shall provide Tenant with (i)
approximately 240 rentable square feet of space on the 14th Floor of the North
Tower for the purpose of installing and operating a chilled water unit ("Chiller
Unit") and (ii) approximately 400 rentable square feet of space on the D- Level
of the Project for the purpose of installing and operating an auxiliary
electrical generator (the "Electrical Generator") (together, the Chiller Unit
and the Electrical Generator will be referred to herein as "Utility Units"). The
spaces referred to above
25
for the Utility Units (the "Utility Spaces") shall be considered part of the
Premises, except that (i) Tenant shall not be required to pay rent for such
Utility Spaces; (ii) such space shall be used only for purposes relating to the
Utility Units; (iii) no services shall be provided to the Utility Spaces and
(iv) access to such spaces shall be reasonably limited by Landlord. Within one
(1) year following the actual execution and delivery of this Lease, Tenant must
request in writing that Landlord deliver the Utility Spaces and Landlord shall
deliver such requested space(s) to Tenant within sixty (60) days of such notice.
If Tenant fails to deliver such request within such one (1) year period,
Tenant's rights under this Section 11.1.9.2 shall terminate and be of no further
----------------
force or effect. Landlord shall deliver the Utility Spaces "As-Is" with all
faults and with no representations or warranties with respect to the quality or
suitability of such spaces for Tenant's purposes. Tenant shall be solely
responsible for all costs and expenses and for the performance or any work
required to comply with Applicable Laws as may be applicable to Tenant's
installation of the Utility Units and the use of the Utility Spaces. Landlord
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant with reasonable
access to the Building's risers and other parts of the Building and to Building
Systems for the purpose of connecting cable, chilled water pipes and other
connections ("Utility Connections") necessary to connect the Utility Units with
the portions of the Premises (and any other space leased or occupied by Tenant
in the Project (including, without limitation, any space on the C-Level of the
Project)) to be serviced by such Utility Units. No such Utility Connections
shall interfere with Landlord's operations of the Building Systems. The
installation and removal of such Utility Connections shall be performed by
Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense in a good and workmanlike manner using
quality materials and following Landlord's reasonable approval of the plans and
specifications for such work. At the end of the Lease Term, Tenant shall
surrender each Utility Space to Landlord with the Utility Units and Utility
Connections removed and all affected areas of the Building and the Project
restored to the condition existing prior to the installation of the Utility
Units. Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall submeter the electricity,
water and other Utility Connections to the Utility Units and shall be solely
responsible for all such utility costs.
11.1.9.3 Tenant shall have access at all times to and from the
Premises and any space leased and/or occupied by Tenant on the subterranean
levels of the Project.
11.2 Restrictions on Use. Tenant will not, without the prior written
-------------------
consent of Landlord, which shall not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unless
such use shall cause a Design Problem, use any apparatus or device in the
Premises which will in any way increase the amount of electricity or water
usually furnished or supplied for use of the Premises as general office space,
nor connect any apparatus, machine or device with water pipes or electric
current (except through existing electrical outlets in the Premises), for the
purpose of using electric current or water. If any lights, machines or
equipment (other than standard general office equipment for comparable tenants)
are used by Tenant in the Premises which materially affect the temperature
otherwise maintained by the air conditioning system, or generate substantially
more heat in the Premises than would be generated by the building standard
lights and usual office equipment, Landlord shall have the right to install any
machinery and equipment which Landlord reasonably deems necessary to restore
temperature balance, including but not limited to modifications to the standard
air conditioning equipment, and the cost thereof, including the cost of
installation and any additional cost of operation and maintenance occasioned
thereby, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days after
demand therefor by Landlord.
If Tenant desires service for the excess consumption needs of Tenant,
following Tenant's written request of Landlord to provide the same and Tenant's
written approval of the cost thereof, and if Landlord is able to provide such
service with its available facilities, Landlord shall provide such services and
charge Tenant the Actual Costs for such additional needs. When reasonably
appropriate to do so based upon a reasonable history of such excess electrical
consumption by Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to install, at Tenant's
expense, an electric current meter in the Premises to measure the amount of
electric current consumed on the Premises. In those cases where Landlord
requires Tenant to pay for excess usage of electricity, water or other service
or utility, Landlord shall provide, upon Tenant's request, evidence that such
charges are made in compliance with the terms of this Lease. Provided such units
do not pose a Design Problem, Landlord will reasonably approve Tenant's request
to install supplemental air-conditioning units ("Supplemental AC Units")
provided all work is performed (including the installation of 220 volt
electrical power and installation of separate meters for the electricity used by
such Supplemental AC Units) at Tenant's sole cost and expense, complies with the
other terms applicable to Alterations to the Premises and Tenant reimburses
Landlord for all electrical charges for operating such Supplemental AC Units.
26
11.3 Other Terms Applicable to Extra Utilities and Services.
------------------------------------------------------
11.3.1 Average Consumption Limits. Notwithstanding any provision of
--------------------------
this Lease to the contrary, Tenant shall not be required to pay any charge or
fee for excessive use of utilities (other than After Hours HVAC and excess
electricity, the costs of which are specifically set forth in Sections 11.3.2
---------------
and 11.1.2, respectively) if Tenant's average consumption per square foot of
------
rentable area for the entire Premises, measured over a reasonably representative
time period, of the utility in question (e.g., water) does not materially exceed
the average consumption by office tenants in First Class Buildings with normal
business operations (the "Average Consumption") per rentable square foot of such
utility service measured over the same period of time. Any such charges for
excess utilities or services which Tenant is obligated to pay shall be deemed to
be additional rent hereunder.
11.3.2 After Hours HVAC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord
----------------
agrees to make available, subject to interruption for repairs and restorations,
after-hours HVAC service to the Premises (at the prevailing rates for the
Building, from time to time subject to the provisions below) during the Term of
this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that Landlord currently charges a fee per hour
for after-hours heat or air-conditioning (the "Hourly Charge") of two hundred
Forty-Three and no/100 dollars ($243.00) per hour and that such service is
provided for a minimum of two (2) hours. Tenant further acknowledges that such
Hourly Charge shall be applicable to any after-hours heat or air-conditioning
which Tenant requests and obtains from each Building's heating and air-
conditioning system. The Hourly Charge shall not be increased by Landlord except
in the event that Landlord's Actual Cost to provide such after-hours HVAC
increases above the greater of such amount or Landlord's Actual Cost to provide
the same as of the date hereof (whichever is greater), in which event Landlord
may increase the Hourly Charge by such actual incremental increase in such
Actual Cost. In the event Tenant and/or other tenants request from Landlord use
of after-hours HVAC serving the same zone for the same time period, the Tenant's
charge hereunder shall be reduced to be its pro-rata share (based upon rentable
square feet) of the HVAC service provided to such zone. During the initial Term
of this Lease only and not part of a renewal period, the first two hundred forty
(240) hours of after-hours HVAC service requested by Tenant and provided by
Landlord during any calendar year shall be at no charge.
11.3.3 After-Hours Uses of Other Services or Utilities. Subject to
-----------------------------------------------
the provisions of this Article 11, if Tenant desires to have any services or
----------
utilities supplied to the Premises at times other than those which Landlord is
obligated to provide such service of utilities, and if Landlord is able to
provide the same and Tenant provides adequate notice thereof to Landlord, Tenant
shall pay Landlord such charge as Landlord shall establish from time to time for
providing such services or utilities.
11.4 Interruption Of Use. Except as provided in Sections 14.4 and 30.16,
------------------- ------------- -----
below, 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 repairs, replacements, or improvements, by
any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity,
gas, water, or other fuel at each Building after reasonable effort to do so, by
any 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, subject
to the provisions of Sections 14.4 and 30.16. 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 any such failure to furnish any services or utilities.
12. Entry by Landlord.
-----------------
12.1 Entry by Landlord. Landlord shall at all reasonable times upon
-----------------
reasonable advance notice (except in the event of an emergency) have the right
to enter the Premises in order to: inspect the Premises; post notices of non-
responsibility; show the Premises to prospective purchasers or lenders or,
during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, to prospective tenants;
perform its obligations and exercise its rights hereunder; and subject to the
27
provisions of this Lease, make repairs, improvements, alterations or additions
to the Buildings or any portion thereof as Landlord deems necessary or desirable
and to do all things necessary in connection therewith. Landlord shall retain
(or be given by Tenant) keys to unlock all of the doors to or within the
Premises, excluding doors to Tenant's vaults and files and except as provided in
Section 12.3 below. Landlord shall have the right to use any and all means
------------
necessary to obtain entry to the Premises in an emergency. Landlord may make
any such entries without abatement of rent and may take such steps as required
to accomplish the stated purposes(subject to the provisions of Sections 12.2 and
-------------
30.16 below). Subject to the provisions of this Lease, Landlord's entry to the
-----
Premises shall not, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a forcible or
unlawful entry into, or a detainer of, the Premises, or an eviction of Tenant
from the Premises or any portion thereof.
12.2 Landlord Entry Restrictions. Notwithstanding any provision of this
---------------------------
Lease to the contrary, with respect to any entry by Landlord or any Landlord
employee, agent or contractor (a "Landlord Party"): (i) if such entry is for
the purpose of performing any construction, repair or maintenance work, which
will materially affect the operation of Tenant's business with respect to any
significant portion of the Premises, Landlord shall, if Tenant so requests,
schedule such work during hours other than Normal Business Hours and otherwise
at such times as shall minimize the impact on Tenant's business; provided,
however, that the provisions of this Section 12.2 shall not apply in the case of
------------
any entry in an emergency, or at the request of Tenant; (ii) Landlord shall take
all measures reasonably necessary to avoid any damage to the Premises, the
leasehold improvement therein, any Alterations and Tenant's Property; provided,
however, in any emergency, consideration of those "measures reasonably
necessary" shall take into account the nature of the emergency; and (iii)
Landlord shall promptly fully restore, repair and/or replace any damage to the
leasehold improvements, any Alteration, the Premises and Tenant's Property
resulting from such entry.
12.3 Secure Areas. Tenant may designate up to two (2) areas of the
------------
Premises totaling no more than five hundred (500) rentable square feet of space
as "Secure Areas" should Tenant require such areas for the purpose of securing
certain valuable property or confidential information. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may not enter such Secured
Areas except in the case of emergency or in the event of a Landlord inspection,
in which latter case Landlord shall provide Tenant with three (3) days' prior
written notice of the specific date and time of such Landlord inspection.
Tenant shall provide Landlord with a key for such Secure Areas (to be held
pursuant to a security procedure reasonably satisfactory to Tenant) for
Landlord's use for entry purposes in the event of an emergency.
13. Insurance.
---------
13.1 All-Risk Insurance. At all times during the Lease Term, Tenant, at
------------------
its expense, shall maintain in effect policies of "All Risk" (Special Causes of
Loss) (without coverage for earthquake damage except for sprinkler leakage)
insurance covering: (a) for their full replacement cost new (subject to
reasonable deductibles), the tenant improvements, including Alterations, wholly
contained within the Premises which are not part of (i) the Base Building,
Building Systems, Shell and Core (defined in the Work Letter), or (ii)
Landlord's Work (defined in the Work Letter) (such improvements and Alterations
being referred to herein as the "Tenant Responsible Improvements"); and (b) for
their full replacement cost (subject to reasonable deductibles) all of Tenant's
Property and other tangible personalty from time to time in, on or about the
Premises (without deduction for depreciation) (subject to reasonable
deductibles) from time to time during the Term of this Lease. Such policies
shall provide for protection against any perils normally included within the
classification of "All Risk", and shall contain endorsements, covering:
demolition and increased cost of construction; water damage, vandalism and
malicious mischief, but shall not be required to cover earthquake damage. The
proceeds of such insurance (for tenant improvements) shall be used for the
repair or replacement of the property so insured, except that upon termination
of this Lease following a casualty as set forth herein, the proceeds of such
insurance shall be paid as follows: first to Landlord in an amount equal to
forty dollars ($40.00) per rentable square foot of the North Tower Premises and
Forty-Five dollars ($45.00) per rentable square foot of the South Tower Premises
(and in the case of a partial termination, such amount shall be based on the
square footage of the applicable area of Premises terminated); and second, to
the extent there are remaining proceeds, the remaining proceeds to Tenant.
28
13.2 Public Liability And Property Damage Insurance. At all times during
----------------------------------------------
the Lease Term, Tenant, at its expense, shall maintain Commercial General
Liability Insurance (including property damage) with respect to the ownership,
maintenance and condition of the Premises and the business conducted therein,
which shall be on an occurrence form. Such insurance shall at all times have
limits of not less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) combined single limit
per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability.
At Landlord's request, and only following the first five (5) years of the Lease
Term, these limits shall be increased from time to time during the Lease Term
(but not more often than once every two (2) years) to such higher limits as
Landlord or its insurance consultant believe are necessary to protect Landlord,
provided such increased amounts shall be in no event greater than the amounts
typically required by landlords from comparable tenants of First Class
Buildings. The amount of such insurance shall not limit Tenant's liability nor
relieve Tenant of any obligation hereunder. Each policy shall contain cross
liability endorsements, if applicable.
13.3 Policy Requirements.
-------------------
13.3.1 General Requirements. All insurance required to be carried
--------------------
hereunder shall be issued by responsible insurance companies with a rating of
not less than A-VII in Best's Insurance Guide, or comparable company Landlord
approves. Copies of all certificates with respect to Tenant's insurance
therefor shall be delivered to Landlord prior to Tenant's occupancy of the
Premises. Each policy shall provide that the insurer shall not cancel such
policy unless it has provided thirty (30) days' prior written notice to
Landlord. Tenant shall furnish Landlord with renewals or "binders" of each
policy, together with evidence of payment of the premium therefor, at least
thirty (30) days prior to expiration. Tenant shall be permitted to use such
blanket policies of insurance and combinations of primary and excess (umbrella)
policies as is consistent with its normal practice, so long as the amount of
insurance and the scope and type of coverage shall conform to the requirements
contained in this Lease.
13.3.2 Additional Insureds. Landlord, any other party reasonably
-------------------
specified by Landlord and, if required, Landlord's Mortgagee shall be named as
additional insureds as to Tenant's Commercial General Liability policy, and if
requested by Landlord, they also shall be named as loss payees with respect to
the property insurance with respect to the tenant improvements contained within
the Premises (subject to the rights of Tenant hereunder).
13.3.3 Waivers Of Subrogation. Each policy of All Risk Insurance
----------------------
which either party obtains hereunder shall include a clause or endorsement
denying the insurer any right of subrogation against the other party hereto.
Landlord and Tenant each waive any rights of recovery against the other for
injury or loss due to hazards covered by its own All-Risk insurance, to the
extent of the injury or loss covered thereby.
13.4 Tenant's Failure To Deliver Policies. If Tenant fails to deliver
------------------------------------
insurance certificates and evidence of payment therefor within the time required
pursuant to Section 13.3.1, and such failure continues for three (3) business
--------------
days following Landlord's delivery to Tenant of written notice of such failure,
Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain the required insurance, and
the cost thereof shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days
following Landlord's written demand. Nothing in this Section 13.4 shall be
------------
deemed to be a waiver of any rights or remedies available to Landlord under this
Lease or at law or in equity if Tenant fails to obtain and deliver the required
insurance policies and evidence of payment.
13.5 Landlord's Property Insurance. Landlord shall insure the Building
-----------------------------
during the Lease Term against loss or damage due to fire and other casualties
covered within the classification of fire and extended coverage (and a rental
loss endorsement), vandalism coverage and malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage,
water damage and special extended coverage on the Building for its full
replacement. Such coverage shall be in such amounts, from such companies, and
on such terms and conditions, as is customarily carried by reasonably prudent
landlords of First Class Buildings. Additionally, at the option of Landlord,
but subject to the provisions of Section 7.1.4, above, such insurance coverage
-------------
may include the risks of earthquakes and/or flood damage and additional hazards,
a related rental loss endorsement and one or more loss payee endorsements in
favor of the holders of any mortgages or deeds of trust encumbering the interest
of Landlord in the Buildings or the ground or underlying lessors of the
Buildings, or any portion thereof. Upon inquiry by Tenant, from time to time,
Landlord shall inform Tenant of such coverage carried by Landlord. Tenant shall
neither knowingly use the Premises nor knowingly
29
permit the Premises to be used or acts to be done therein in a manner which will
(i) increase the premium of any insurance described in this Section 13.5 unless
------------
Tenant pays for the increase in such premium; or (ii) cause a cancellation of
any such insurance policies. If Tenant's conduct or use of the Premises causes
any increase in the premium for such insurance policies then Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for any such increase. Tenant and Landlord 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.
14. Damage Or Destruction; Eminent Domain.
-------------------------------------
14.1 Repair of Landlord's Restoration Areas By Landlord. Provided this
--------------------------------------------------
Lease is not subject to (or is no longer subject to) termination by Landlord or
Tenant as provided below (other than the rights of Tenant under the provisions
of Section 14.6 (excluding the first sentence thereof), following discovery of
------------
any damage or destruction to the Landlord Restoration Areas, Landlord shall, at
Landlord's sole cost and expense, in a commercially reasonable manner (and with
reasonable promptness), repair, restore and rebuild all such Landlord
Restoration Areas (during which time this Lease shall remain in full force and
effect) except for modifications required by zoning and building codes and other
laws ("Law Modifications"). Landlord Restoration Areas as used herein shall mean
any portion of the Project, including the Base Building and Building Systems of
any floor on which the Premises are located, the damage or destruction of which
materially and adversely affects Tenant's access to, or use, enjoyment or
occupancy of the Premises (or the parking facilities servicing the Premises).
14.2 Repair of the Tenant Responsible Improvements by Tenant. Provided
-------------------------------------------------------
this Lease is not subject to (or is no longer subject to ) termination by
Landlord or Tenant as provided below, following discovery of any damage to the
Tenant Responsible Improvements, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and
expense, promptly commence to repair, restore and rebuild such Tenant
Responsible Improvements (or their reasonable equivalent) to the same condition
existing immediately prior to the damage (which reflects reasonable wear and
tear existing immediately prior to the damage), or to any other configuration or
level of improvement consistent with general office use in First Class
Buildings, and thereafter shall diligently pursue such repair, restoration and
rebuilding to completion, during which time this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect subject to Section 14.4.
------------
14.3 Damage Estimate; Cooperation; Insurance Proceeds.
------------------------------------------------
(a) Within sixty (60) days after discovery of any occurrence of
damage or destruction affecting the Landlord Restoration Areas, Landlord shall
provide Tenant with written notice ("Landlord's Estimate Notice'") of whether
the Landlord Restoration Areas will be replaced, restored and rebuilt pursuant
to the terms hereof and of Landlord's best good faith estimate of the time to do
so. At any time, from time to time, after the date occurring twenty (20) days
after the date of the damage or destruction, but no more often than once every
ninety (90) days, Tenant may request that Landlord provide Tenant with a
certificate from a reputable architect or a reputable contractor setting forth
the architect or contractor's reasonable opinion of the date of completion of
the required repairs of the Landlord Restoration Areas and Landlord shall
respond to such request, in writing, within fifteen (15) days.
(b) In each case where Landlord and Tenant will be responsible for
prosecuting restoration work pursuant to this Article 14, each party will
----------
exercise reasonable efforts to cooperate with the efforts of the other party to
prosecute its work on a timely and cost-efficient basis.
14.4 Rent Abatement. If all or part of the Premises are rendered
--------------
completely or partially untenantable on account of fire or other casualty to the
Premises and/or Base Building and/or the Building System or the Common Areas,
Monthly Rent, Tenant's Share of Excess Direct Expenses, parking charges and all
other forms of additional rent (collectively, "Tenant's Monetary Obligations'")
shall be abated in the proportion that the rentable area of the untenantable
portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises. Such
abatement shall commence on the date of the damage or destruction and shall
continue until the Premises and all relevant portions of the Common Areas have
been substantially repaired and Tenant has been granted sufficient time to
reinstall the Tenant Improvements, its furniture, fixtures and equipment and
move into the Premises, which period of time shall be extended for Force Majeure
Events and delays caused by the Landlord. However, if Tenant reoccupies any
30
portion of damaged portion of the Premises prior to the date that the Premises
are substantially repaired, the Rent allocable to the reoccupied portion shall
be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy in the proportion that the
rentable area of the reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total
rentable area of the Premises, provided, further, if the Premises (or access
thereto) is damaged such that the remaining portion thereof is not sufficient to
allow Tenant to conduct its business operations from such remaining portion and
Tenant does not conduct its business operations therefrom, Landlord shall allow
Tenant a total abatement of Rent during the time and to the extent the Premises
are unfit for occupancy for the purposes permitted under this Lease, and not
occupied by Tenant as a result of the subject damage. If Tenant's right to
xxxxx under this Section 14.4 occurs during a free rent period or during another
------------
period during which Tenant's Monetary Obligations hereunder are abated or
subject to another rent credit provision under either this Lease or the Work
Letter ("Overlap Period"), Tenant shall be entitled to an additional free rent
credit (applicable to the rent next due and payable) equal to the free rent to
which Tenant was otherwise entitled during the Overlap Period but which was not
used by virtue of application of this Section 14.4.
------------
14.5 Landlord's Election to Terminate.
--------------------------------
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, in
the event that casualty damage to a substantial portion of the Building and the
Premises (whether or not such damage is an insured loss) occurs, Landlord may
terminate this Lease upon written notice to Tenant if: (i) either (x) repairs
to the Premises (including all tenant improvements contained therein) cannot
reasonably be completed within three hundred sixty-five (365) days of the date
of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of
overtime or other premiums); or (y) the damage to the Landlord Restoration Areas
arising as a result of such casualty is not fully covered, except for deductible
amounts, by insurance policies held by Landlord (and is not required to be
insured by Landlord pursuant to Article 13) and the amount of such damage not
----------
covered by (or required to be covered by) insurance, including deductible
amounts, is in excess of ten million dollars ($10,000,000); and (ii) either (x)
in the event the Premises are damaged, Landlord terminates all leases of tenants
of the Building sustaining damage, if any, comparable to that sustained by
Tenant, which Landlord has a right to terminate; or (y) in the event the
Premises are not materially damaged, Landlord terminates all leases of tenants
in the Building and Landlord elects to demolish the Building or not to commence
repair or restoration to the Building within eighteen (18) months from the date
of the damage is discovered.
(b) If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease pursuant to this
Section 14.5, its notice of termination shall be given within sixty (60) days
after discovery of the damage, destruction or events in question and this Lease
shall terminate on the date specified in such notice; provided, however, such
termination date shall be no less than ninety (90) days following Landlord's
notice of termination.
14.6 Tenant's Right to Terminate this Lease.
--------------------------------------
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Landlord does
not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as
provided above, and the repairs of the Landlord Restoration Areas and the Tenant
Responsible Improvements cannot be reasonably completed within three hundred
sixty-five (365) days after being commenced (which three hundred sixty-five
[365] day period shall not be subject to extension as a result of any Force
Majeure Event), Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the
discovery of the damage and not later than sixty (60) days following Tenant's
First Estimate Notice, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord
effective as of any date within sixty (60) days thereafter. Furthermore, if
Landlord fails to complete the repairs of the Landlord Restoration Areas within
three hundred sixty-five (365) days following the damage or destruction, Tenant
shall have the right to terminate this Lease within five (5) business days of
the end of such period and thereafter during the first five (5) business days of
each calendar month following the end of such period until such time as the
repairs are complete, by notice to Landlord (the "Damage Termination Notice"),
effective as of a date set forth in the Damage Termination Notice (the "Damage
Termination Date"), which Damage Termination Date shall not be less than five
(5) business days following the end of such period or each such month, as the
case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant delivers a Damage
Termination Notice to Landlord, then Landlord shall have the right to suspend
the occurrence of the Damage Termination Date for a period ending thirty (30)
days after the Damage Termination Date set forth in the Damage Termination
Notice
31
by delivering to Tenant, within five (5) business days of Landlord's receipt of
the Damage Termination Notice, a certificate of Landlord's contractor
responsible for the repair of the damage certifying that it is such contractor's
good faith judgment that the repairs shall be substantially completed within
thirty (30) days after the Damage Termination Date. If repairs shall be
substantially completed prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period,
then the Damage Termination Notice shall be of no force or effect, but if the
repairs shall not be substantially completed within such thirty (30) day period,
then this Lease shall terminate upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day
period.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord shall be obligated to
repair or restore the Premises under the provisions of this Article 14 and shall
----------
not commence, in a substantial and meaningful way, the repair or restoration of
the Premises within ninety (90) days after such obligation shall accrue, Tenant
may, at any time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration, give
written notice to Landlord and to any lenders of which Tenant has actual notice
of Tenant's election to terminate this Lease on a date not less than sixty (60)
days following the giving of such notice. If Tenant gives such notice to
Landlord and such lenders and such repair or restoration is not commenced within
thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, subject to the remaining rights
of termination set forth in this Article 14, this Lease shall terminate as of
----------
the date specified in said notice. If Landlord or a lender commences the repair
or restoration of the Premises within thirty (30) days after receipt of such
notice, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. "Commence" as used
in this Article 14 shall mean either the unconditional authorization of the full
----------
preparation of the required plans (and engagement of a qualified architect), or
the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever first occurs;
provided that in the case of preparation of plans, such plans are diligently
prepared and work based thereon promptly commenced.
14.7 Damage Near the End of Term. In the event that the Premises or the
---------------------------
Building is destroyed or damaged rendering the Premises untenantable and the
time necessary to repair or restore the Premises would exceed ninety (90) days
(when such repairs are made without payment of overtime or other premiums)
during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term and Tenant did not
previously exercised its option to extend the Lease Term, then notwithstanding
anything contained in this Article 14, Landlord or Tenant shall have the option
----------
to terminate this Lease by giving written notice to the other party of the
exercise of such option within sixty (60) days after such damage or destruction,
in which event this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such
notice, Tenant shall pay the Monthly Rent and additional rent, properly
apportioned up to such date of damage (subject to abatement under Section 14.4),
------------
and both parties hereto shall thereafter be freed and discharged of all further
obligations hereunder, except as provided for in provisions of this Lease which
by their terms survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term.
14.8 Termination: Advance Payments. Upon termination of this Lease
-----------------------------
pursuant to this Article 14, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning
----------
all advance rent and any advance payments, if any, previously made by Tenant to
Landlord. Landlord shall, in addition, return to Tenant so much of Tenant's
security deposit (if any) as has not theretofore been applied by Landlord in
accordance with the terms and provisions of this Lease.
14.9 Application to Separate Buildings. In recognition of the fact that
---------------------------------
the Premises hereunder are located at two separate buildings at the Project and
damage of destruction may occur to one such building and not the other (or to
the portion of the Premises located in one building and not the other) the terms
of this Article 14 shall apply separately to the North Tower Premises (and to
----------
the North Tower as the Building for such Premises) and to the South Tower
Premises (and to the South Tower as the Building for such Premises) as if there
were to separate leases one covering the North Tower Premises and one covering
the South Tower Premises; provided, however, that if under this Article 14
----------
Tenant has the right to exercise a right of termination with respect to the
North Tower Premises (or if Landlord shall elect to terminate this Lease as to
the North Tower Premises), it shall also have the right to terminate this Lease
as to the South Tower Premises.
14.10 Eminent Domain. Landlord may terminate this Lease upon one hundred
--------------
eighty (180) days written notice to Tenant if the whole or any part of the
Premises, or a part of the Building reasonably deemed necessary by Landlord for
the operation of the Building (and Landlord in fact stops operation of the
Building), is condemned, taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public
authority under the power of eminent domain, police power or otherwise
32
(or in the event of a sale in lieu thereof) and as a result thereof Landlord
terminates the leases of all other tenants in the Building similarly affected by
such taking. Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon written
notice to Landlord if twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Premises or if so
much of the Building that Tenant's ability to access the Premises is condemned,
taken or appropriated by any public or quasi-public authority under the power of
eminent domain, police power or otherwise (or in the event of a sale in lieu
thereof). Whether or not this Lease is so terminated, Landlord shall be entitled
to any and all income, rent, award, or interest thereon which may be paid or
made in connection with the taking or appropriation, provided, however, that
Tenant shall be entitled to any award for loss of or damage to Tenant's Property
or for damages for cessation or interruption of Tenant's business, loss of
goodwill, relocation and moving expenses and fifty percent (50%) of the "bonus
value" of Tenant's leasehold interest in this Lease actually awarded by the
condemning authority. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, its notice of
termination shall be given within three hundred sixty-five (365) days after the
taking or appropriation. If such notice is not given or if Landlord notifies
Tenant of Landlord's election not to terminate (and Tenant does not exercise any
of its rights of termination under this Section 14.10), this Lease shall
-------------
continue in full force and effect, except that the Tenant's Monetary Obligations
shall be reduced in the proportion that the rentable floor area of the Premises
which is taken bears to the total Rentable Area of the Premises. Nothing
contained in this Section shall prevent Tenant from bringing a separate action
or proceeding for compensation for any of Tenant's Property taken, Tenant's
moving expenses or any other compensation that Tenant may be able to receive
from the condemning authority as part of a separate action that does not affect
Landlord's compensation.
14.11 Waiver. The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 14,
------ ----------
constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any
and all damage, destruction or condemnation of all or any part of the Premises
and the Building and any statute or regulation of the State of California,
including, without limitation, Sections 1931(2) and 1933(4) of the California
Civil Code, and Section 1265.130 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, with
respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction or
condemnation in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any
other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this
Lease.
15. Assignment And Subletting.
-------------------------
15.1 Landlord's Consent Required. Subject to the provisions of this
---------------------------
Article 15, Tenant shall not voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of any
----------
Laws sell, convey, mortgage, assign, sublet or otherwise transfer or encumber
all or any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease or the Premises (each such
action by Tenant to be known as a "Transfer") without Landlord's prior written
consent in each instance, and any attempt to do so without this consent shall be
null and void.
15.2 Notice. If Tenant desires to make a Transfer, Tenant shall notify
------
Landlord in writing. This notice shall be accompanied by: (a) a statement
setting forth the name and business of the proposed transferee of the Transfer
(the "Transferee"); (b) a copy of the proposed documents, in substantially
complete form (whether or not executed) evidencing the material terms of the
proposed Transfer including the financial terms of the Transfer (including,
without limitation, the term, the rent and any security deposit, "key money");
and (c) financial statements (which shall, if the same shall always exist, be
certified by an independent certified public accountant) and other information
reasonably requested by Landlord relating to the business of the Transferee or
the use of the Premises proposed by the Transferee. In the event that Tenant
shall have submitted unexecuted transfer documents, Tenant shall not, without
resubmitting the same for Landlord's consent, materially change the terms of the
proposed Transfer.
15.3 Consent By Landlord. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or
-------------------
condition its consent to any Transfer proposed by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant
agree that the withholding or conditioning of Landlord's consent shall be deemed
reasonable if one or more of the following conditions are applicable:
(a) The primary use of the Premises by the proposed Transferee is not
a Permitted Use, or would otherwise reasonably offend the majority of landlords
of First Class Buildings.
33
(b) In the case of an assignment of the entire Lease or a sublease of
all or substantially all of the Premises for the remainder of the Lease Term,
the proposed Transferee does not have sufficient financial capabilities to
perform all of its obligations as such obligations become due.
(c) The proposed Transferee is an occupant of any part of the Project
or has negotiated with Landlord within the preceding one hundred fifty (150)
days for space in the Project (as evidenced by the exchange of written proposals
for a proposed transaction to lease space in the Project), and Landlord has
---
direct space in the Project available for Lease substantially consistent with
the requirements of the Transferee with respect to Premises size, floor height,
location and delivery condition (such as shell vs. improved space condition).
(d) The proposed Transferee is (i) an instrumentality which is that of
a foreign country, (ii) which is of a character or reputation, is engaged in a
business, or is of, or is associated with, a political orientation or faction,
which would reasonably offend most landlords of the First Class Buildings, (iii)
a governmental entity or other entity which is capable of exercising the power
of eminent domain or condemnation, or (iv) which would significantly increase
the human traffic in the Premises or Building above that of comparable tenants
of the Building (or Tenant's human traffic, whichever is greater).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord leases space in the Building to a
tenant (an "Accepted Tenant") that has one of the attributes described in (i)
through (iv), above, then so long as such Accepted Tenant leases space in the
Building, Tenant may sublease space to a party that has the same attributes as
the Accepted Tenant that Landlord has leased to the Accepted Tenant (and
provided that such proposed subtenant is otherwise qualified hereunder).
(e) All of the other terms of this Section 15.3 are complied with.
------------
The conditions described above are not exclusive and shall not limit
or prevent Landlord from considering additional factors in determining if it
should reasonably withhold its consent.
15.4 Corporate And Partnership Transactions. If Tenant is a corporation
--------------------------------------
which is not publicly held, a dissolution of the corporation or a transfer of a
majority of the voting stock of Tenant shall be deemed to be an assignment of
this Lease subject to the provisions of this section. However, these provisions
shall not apply to transactions with a corporation into or with which Tenant is
merged, reorganized or consolidated or to which substantially all of Tenant's
assets are transferred or which controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with, Tenant, if the principal purpose of the merger or transfer is not
the assignment of this Lease and Tenant's successor assumes all the obligations
of Tenant under this Lease. If Tenant is a partnership which is not publicly
held, a dissolution of the partnership (including a "technical" dissolution) or
the withdrawal or change, voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, of
fifty percent (50%) or more of the partners, or transfer of fifty percent (50%)
or more of the partnership interests within a twelve (12) month period shall be
deemed an assignment of this Lease subject to the provisions of this Article 15,
----------
regardless of whether the transfer is made by one or more transactions, or
whether one or more persons hold the controlling interest prior to or after the
transfer. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, a fifty
percent (50%) (or any) transfer of shares or interests in either DMJM or AeCom
shall not be deemed a Transfer hereunder provided such transfer is not a
subterfuge to avoid the terms of this Article 15.
----------
15.5 No Release Of Tenant. Subject to the provisions of Section 15.9,
-------------------- ------------
notwithstanding the granting of Landlord's consent, no sale, conveyance,
mortgage, pledge, subletting, assignment or other transfer or encumbrance of
this Lease or the Premises shall release or alter Tenant's liability to pay rent
and perform all of its other obligations hereunder. The acceptance of rent by
Landlord from any person other than Tenant shall not be a waiver by Landlord of
any provision hereof. Consent to one assignment or subletting shall not be
deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting. After any
assignment, sublease or other transfer or encumbrance, Landlord may consent to
subsequent assignments, subleases, transfers or encumbrances, or amendments to
this Lease, without notifying Tenant or any other person, without obtaining
consent thereto, and without relieving Tenant of liability under this Lease.
34
15.6 Additional Charges. If Landlord consents to an assignment or
------------------
sublease, 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 15.6, received by Tenant from such assignee
------------
or subtenant. "Transfer Premium" shall mean all rent, additional rent or other
consideration (collectively, "Consideration") payable by such assignee or
subtenant in excess of the Monthly Rent and Direct Expenses payable by Tenant
under this Lease, on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the
Premises is transferred, after deducting all expenses incurred by Tenant for (a)
any changes, alterations and improvements to the Premises in connection with the
assignment or sublease, (b) any brokerage commissions in connection with the
assignment or sublease,(c) any costs to buy-out or takeover the previous lease
of an assignee or subtenant, (d) all allowances and monetary concessions, (e)
all attorneys' fees, architectural and design fees, marketing fees and
advertising costs and consultants' fees incurred by Tenant in connection with
the Transfer, (f) the amount of any Monthly Rent, Direct Expenses and other
additional rent paid by Tenant to Landlord with respect to the Premises subject
to the Transfer during the period (the "Vacancy/Marketing Period") commencing on
the later of: (i) the date Tenant contracts with a reputable broker to market
the such portion of the Premises and notifies the Landlord in writing of such
contract (or commences active negotiations with a prospective Transferee), and
(ii) the date Tenant vacates the such portion of the Premises, until the
commencement of the payment of periodic rent under the Transfer. The
determination of the amount of Landlord's applicable share of the Transfer
Premium shall be made on a monthly basis as rent or other consideration is
received by Tenant under the Transfer. For purposes of calculating the Transfer
Premium on a monthly basis, Tenant's Transfer Costs shall be deemed to be
expended by Tenant in equal monthly amounts over the entire term of the Transfer
(provided, however, at the election of Tenant given within thirty (30) business
days following the giving of Landlord's consent to such Consent Transfer, Tenant
may amortize all or any portion of such Transfer Costs over a shorter period or
may elect to allocate such Transfer Costs to the earliest portion of the term of
such Transfer until such Transfer Costs are exhausted). "Consideration" shall
also include, but not be limited to, key money and bonus money paid by an
assignee or subtenant to Tenant in connection with such assignment or sublease,
and any payment in excess of fair market value for assets, fixtures, inventory,
equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to an assignee or subtenant.
15.7 Additional Terms. Tenant shall pay the reasonable attorneys' fees and
----------------
other costs and expenses of Landlord in connection with any request for
Landlord's consent to any sale, conveyance, mortgage, pledge, assignment,
sublease or other transfer or encumbrance, which cost and expenses shall not
exceed one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500) in the aggregate for each
Transfer. If this Lease is terminated or Landlord re-enters or repossesses the
Premises, Landlord may, at its option, take over all of Tenant's right, title
and interest as sublessor and, at Landlord's option (but subject to any right of
termination the subtenant may have in the sublease), the subtenant shall attorn
to Landlord, but Landlord shall not be: (a) liable for any previous act or
omission of Tenant under the sublease, (b) subject to any existing defense or
offset against Tenant, or (c) bound by any previous modification of the sublease
made without Landlord's prior written consent or by any prepayment of more than
one month's rent. Any purported sublease or assignment to which Landlord's
consent is required hereunder shall be ineffective until Landlord gives its
written consent thereto. This article is binding on and shall apply to any
purchaser, mortgagee, pledgee, assignee, subtenant or other transferee or
encumbrancer, at every level.
15.8 Transfers To Affiliates. The term "Affiliate Transferee" (or
-----------------------
"Affiliate") shall mean any entity which: (i) is controlled by, controls, or is
under common control with, Tenant or which merges with, is acquired by, or
acquires all of Tenant's assets or stock (or other interests) and (ii) to which
Tenant assigns this Lease or makes a sublease of the Premises. "Control", as
used in this Section 15.8, shall mean the possession, direct or indirect, of the
------------
power to control the direction of the management and policies of a person or
entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article
-------
15, an assignment or sublease of the Premises to an Affiliate Transferee shall
--
not require Landlord's prior consent under this Article 15, nor shall it be
----------
subject to Tenant's obligation to pay a Transfer Premium as provided above (or
comply with the notice requirements of Section 15.2), provided that: (a) Tenant
------------
gives Landlord prior written of any such assignment or sublease and promptly
supplies Landlord with any documents or information reasonably required by
Landlord regarding such assignment or sublease or such Affiliate Transferee; (b)
the Affiliate Transferee would not be unacceptable due to the reasons set
35
forth in Section 15.3(d); (c) such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by
---------------
Tenant to avoid Tenant's obligation to obtain consent or pay the Transfer
Premium required hereunder; and (d) the assignor remains fully liable for the
obligations of Tenant hereunder in the case of an assignment and the Affiliate
Transferee assumes full liability for Tenant's then prospective obligations
hereunder (allocable to the portion of the Premises so transferred, for the term
of the Transfer).
15.9 Response to Requests for Consent. Within twenty (20) days following
--------------------------------
delivery to Landlord of a complete notice of Transfer together with all of the
information required under Section 15.2, Landlord shall respond by notifying
------------
Tenant whether Landlord will consent to such Transfer in accordance with the
terms hereof or that it will not grant such consent. If Landlord does not
respond within such period, or notifies Tenant that it will not consent to such
Transfer, Tenant may send a second written notice (the "Second Notice") to
Landlord stating: (i) in the event of Landlord's failure to respond, that
Landlord must respond within five (5) days following delivery of such second
notice and if no response is received, that Landlord will be deemed to have
granted of such consent; or (ii) in the event Landlord has denied consent to
Tenant that Tenant deems such denial a breach of Landlord's obligations under
this Lease. In the event of a notice under (i), above, if Landlord does not
respond in writing within such five (5) day period, such consent shall be deemed
granted. In the event of a notice under (ii), above, if Landlord does not grant
consent within such five (5) days period, Tenant may pursue it rights under law.
Landlord shall not be in breach of this Lease for refusal to grant consent to a
Transfer unless its refusal constitutes a breach and Landlord has not granted
such consent within five (5) days following Landlord's receipt of the Second
Notice.
16. Quiet Enjoyment.
---------------
So long as Tenant pays all rent and performs all of its other obligations
as required hereunder, Tenant shall quietly enjoy the Premises without hindrance
or molestation by Landlord or any person lawfully claiming through or under
Landlord. As used in this Lease, the term "Superior Leases and Mortgages" means
all present and future ground leases, underlying leases, mortgages, deeds of
trust or other encumbrances, and all renewals, modifications, consolidations,
replacements or extensions thereof or advances made thereunder, affecting all or
any portion of the Premises, the Project or the Land.
17. Mortgagee Protection.
--------------------
17.1 Subordination. Subject to the provisions of Section 30.9 and this
------------- ------------
Article 17, this Lease is subordinate to all Superior Leases and Mortgages.
----------
Subject to the provisions of this Section 17.1, Tenant shall execute,
------------
acknowledge and deliver any commercially reasonable subordination,
nondisturbance and attornment agreement ("SNDA") instrument that Landlord or the
lessor, mortgagee or beneficiary under any of the Superior Leases and Mortgages
may request within twenty (20) days after request (each of these lessors,
mortgagees or beneficiaries is called a "Landlord's Mortgagee'"). However, if
Landlord, Landlord's Mortgagee or any other successor to Landlord elects in
writing, this Lease shall be deemed superior to the Superior Leases and
Mortgages specified, regardless of the date of recording, and Tenant shall
execute a commercially reasonable agreement confirming this election on request.
Subject to having received an SNDA consistent with the requirements of this
Section 17.1 from such Landlord's Mortgagee, if Landlord's Mortgagee or its
------------
successor or any successor to Landlord succeeds to Landlord's interests under
this Lease, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, Tenant shall attorn to such
person and recognize such person as Landlord under this Lease. Notwithstanding
any provisions of this Section 17.1 to the contrary, no subordination under this
------------
Section 17.1 shall be effective (and Tenant shall not be required to execute and
------------
deliver any SNDA) unless and until the Landlord's Mortgagee with respect to the
Superior Lease and Mortgage in question delivers an SNDA in commercially
reasonable form and otherwise in compliance with the conditions of this Section
-------
17 (provided that execution by Tenant of the form of non-disturbance agreement
--
attached hereto as Exhibit "H" shall not be deemed an acknowledgment by Tenant
-----------
that such agreement is commercially reasonable). All such non-disturbance
agreements shall provide the same acknowledgment of offset rights granted to
Tenant hereunder as exist in the non-disturbance agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit "H".
-----------
17.2 Mortgagee's Liability. In the event that any Monthly Rent or
---------------------
additional rent shall be paid more than thirty (30) days prior to the due date
thereof such advance payments shall (except to the extent that such payments are
actually received by a Landlord's Mortgagee) be a
36
nullity as against Landlord's Mortgagees or their successors and Tenant shall be
liable for the amount of such payments to Landlord's Mortgagees or their
successors.
17.3 Mortgagee's Right To Cure. Except with respect to any right of
-------------------------
termination under Article 14 or Sections 3.2.1, 30.4, 30.7 and 30.16, no default
---------- -------------- ---- ---- -----
by Landlord which would entitle Tenant under the terms of this Lease or any Laws
to terminate this Lease, shall result in a release or termination of such
obligations or this Lease unless: (a) Tenant first shall have given written
notice of Landlord's default to Landlord and all Landlord's Mortgagees whose
names and addresses shall have been furnished to Tenant; and (b) Landlord's
Mortgagees, after receipt of such notice, fail to correct or cure the default
within a reasonable time thereafter (but in no event more than sixty (60) days).
However, nothing contained in this Section 17.3 shall impose any obligation on
------------
Landlord's Mortgagees to correct or cure any default of Landlord.
18. Estoppel Certificates.
---------------------
Tenant shall from time to time, within fifteen (15) business days after
request by Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord or any other person
designated by Landlord an estoppel certificate, in substantially the form of
Exhibit "D" attached hereto (or such other commercially reasonable form as may
-----------
be required by Landlord or Landlord's Mortgagee). An estoppel certificate
issued by Tenant pursuant to this Section shall be a representation and warranty
by Tenant which may be relied on by Landlord and by others with whom Landlord
may be dealing. Tenant may qualify its statements in the estoppel certificates
to its actual knowledge, provided that it does not disavow a duty to
investigate. In addition to the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to provide to
Tenant an estoppel certificate signed by Landlord, containing the same types of
information, and within the same periods of time, as are set forth above.
19. Default.
-------
The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall be an
"Event of Default" of this Lease by Tenant.
19.1 Monetary Obligations. The failure by Tenant to make any payment of
--------------------
rent or any other payment required to be made by Tenant hereunder which is then
due and payable, which failure continues for a period of five (5) days after
receipt by Tenant of written notice.
19.2 Non-Monetary Obligations. The failure by Tenant to observe or perform
------------------------
any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Tenant, other than those described in subparagraphs 19.1 of this
------------------
Article 19, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days
----------
after written notice of such failure is delivered to Tenant; provided, however,
if the nature of these defaults is such that more than thirty (30) days are
reasonably required to cure, then Tenant shall not be deemed to be in default if
Tenant commences such cure within the thirty (30) day period and thereafter
diligently prosecutes such cure to completion. Any such notice of Landlord
under Section 19.1 or this Section 19.2 (or in Sections 19.3 or 19.4) shall be
------------ ------------ ------------- ----
in addition to any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 1161 or any similar or successor Laws.
19.3 Estoppel Obligations and Non Disturbance Agreements. Tenant's failure
---------------------------------------------------
to deliver the estoppel certificate required under Article 18, or any written
----------
instrument required under Article 17 within ten (10) days following written
----------
notice of such failure.
19.4 Insurance Obligations. Tenant's failure to maintain the insurance
---------------------
policies required hereunder and such failure shall not be cured within ten (10)
days following Landlord's written notice of such failure.
20. Remedies For Default.
--------------------
20.1 General. In the event of any Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord may
-------
at any time thereafter:
(a) Terminate Tenant's right to possession of the Premises by any
lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall
immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event
Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by
Landlord by reason of Tenant's default, including but not limited to: (i) the
worth at the time of the award of the unpaid Monthly Rent and additional rent
which
37
had been earned or was payable at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the
time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Monthly Rent and additional
rent which would have been earned or payable after termination until the time of
the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have
been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount
by which the unpaid Monthly Rent and additional rent which would have been paid
for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other
amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all Liabilities proximately caused
by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the
ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but
not limited to, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord in maintaining or
preserving the Premises after such default, the cost of recovering possession of
the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation or
alteration of the Premises, Landlord's attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
connection therewith, and any real estate commissions paid or payable in
connection with relating the Premises. As used in subsections 20.1(a)(i) and
----------------------
20.1(a)(ii), above, the "worth at the time of the award" is computed by allowing
-----------
interest on unpaid amounts at the rate of 10% per annum, or such lesser amount
as may then be the maximum lawful rate. As used in subsection 20.1(a)(iii),
-----------------------
above, the "worth at the time of the award" is computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the
time of the award, plus one percent (1%).
(b) Pursue the remedy described in California Civil Code Section
1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach 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.
(c) Pursue any other right or remedy now or hereafter available to
Landlord hereunder or at law or in equity.
20.2 Performance By Landlord. If Tenant commits an Event of Default under
-----------------------
this Lease, Landlord, without waiving or curing the default, after Notice to
Tenant, may, but shall not be obligated to, perform Tenant's obligations for the
account and at the expense of Tenant. Notwithstanding Section 19.3, in the case
------------
of an emergency (i.e., Landlord need not give any notice prior to performing
Tenant's obligations.
20.3 Post-Judgment Interest. The amount of any judgment obtained by either
----------------------
party hereto against the other in any legal proceeding arising out of a default
under this Lease shall bear interest until paid at the Interest Rate (defined
below). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Laws, except
as is provided to the contrary in this Lease, with respect to any damages that
are certain or ascertainable by calculation, interest shall accrue from the day
that the right to the damages vests, and in the case of any unliquidated claim,
interest shall accrue from the day the claim arose.
21. Holding Over.
------------
21.1 Tenant Holdover. Tenant shall not hold over in the Premises after the
---------------
expiration or sooner termination of the Lease Term without the express prior
written consent of Landlord. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord for, and hold
Landlord harmless from and against, any and all Liabilities arising out of or in
connection with any delay by Tenant in surrendering and vacating the Premises,
including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant based on
any delay and any Liabilities arising out of or in connection with these claims.
If possession of the Premises is not surrendered to Landlord on the expiration
or sooner termination of the Lease Term, in addition to any other rights and
remedies of Landlord hereunder or at law or in equity, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord for each month or portion thereof during which Tenant holds over in the
Premises a sum equal to, for the first (1st) month of such holdover, one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) of the Monthly Rent then payable and, after the first
(1st) month of such holdover, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of such Monthly
Rent, in addition to all other additional rent payable under this Lease. If any
tenancy is created by Tenant's holding over in the Premises, the tenancy shall
be on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease, except that Monthly Rent
shall be increased as set forth above and the tenancy shall be a month-to-month
tenancy. Except as provided in Section 21.2, below, nothing in this Article 21
------------ ----------
shall be deemed
38
to permit Tenant to retain possession of the Premises after the expiration or
sooner termination of the Lease Term.
21.2 Short Term Lease Extension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
--------------------------
set forth in Section 21.1, above, Tenant shall have the right, upon the
------------
expiration of the initial Lease Term or any Option Term, to extend the Lease
Expiration Date for a period of up to sixty (60) days, by giving written notice
to Landlord of such election not less than nine (9) months prior to the
scheduled Lease Expiration Date. Upon such election, the Lease Term shall be
extended for a period of up to sixty (60) days on all of the terms and
conditions of this Lease (the "Approved Hold-Over Period"), provided that the
Base Rent payable during the Approved Hold-Over Period shall be equal to one
hundred ten percent (110%) of the Base Rent payable immediately prior to the
scheduled Lease Expiration Date.
22. Exculpation.
-----------
22.1 Definitions. As used in this Lease, the following terms have the
-----------
meanings set forth below:
22.1.1 Liabilities. All losses, costs, damages, expenses, claims,
-----------
injuries, liabilities and judgments, including, but not limited to, attorneys'
fees and costs (whether or not suit is commenced or judgment entered).
22.1.2 Landlord's Affiliates and Tenant's Affiliates. All
---------------------------------------------
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, agents, employees,
successors and assigns of Landlord and Tenant, respectively.
22.2 Damage To Persons Or Property. Subject to the provisions of Section
----------------------------- -------
22.4 and this Section 22.2, and except as otherwise provided in this Lease, (i)
---- ------------
Tenant assumes the risk of all Liabilities it may incur, including, but not
limited to, damage or injury to persons, property and the conduct of Tenant's
business (and any loss of revenue therefrom), the loss of use or occupancy of
the Premises, and the items enumerated below in this Section 22, and waives all
----------
claims against Landlord and Landlord's Affiliates in connection therewith and
(ii) Landlord and Landlord's Affiliates shall not be liable for any Liabilities
incurred by Tenant or Tenant's Affiliates (including, but not limited to, the
Liabilities described above in this Section 22) arising from or in connection
----------
with: (a) acts or omissions of any tenant of the Project or any other persons;
(b) explosion, fire, steam, electricity, water, gas or rain, pollution or
contamination; (c) the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of
plumbing, HVAC, electrical, sanitary, safety, elevator or other utilities and
systems of the Project or the failure to furnish any of the foregoing; (d) any
work, maintenance, repair, rebuilding or improvement performed by or at the
request of Landlord or Landlord's Affiliates for the Premises, the Project or
the Land; (e) any entry by Landlord or Landlord's Affiliates on the Premises;
and (f) any other acts, omissions or causes; provided, however that
notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section exempts Landlord with
respect to any Liabilities (and this Section 22 shall not apply to any
----------
liabilities) to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord, Landlord's Affiliates or any of their agents, contractors or
employees. Tenant immediately shall notify Landlord of any defects in the
Premises or any portion thereof and of any damage or injury thereto or to
persons or property in or about the Premises of which it has actual knowledge.
22.3 Satisfaction Of Remedies. Subject to the provisions of this Section
------------------------ -------
22.3, Landlord shall not be personally liable for the performance of Landlord's
----
obligations under this Lease and if Tenant acquires any rights or remedies
against Landlord under this Lease (including, but not limited to, the right to
satisfy a judgment), these rights and remedies shall be satisfied solely from
the lesser of the following interests: (i) the Landlord's estate and interest in
the Land and the Project (including all rental income, net sales, condemnation
awards and any insurance proceeds which Landlord receives which are not used to
repair or rebuild the Project) and (ii) the equity that Landlord's estate and
interest in the Land and the Project (including all rental income, net sales,
condemnation awards and any insurance proceeds which Landlord receives which are
not used to repair or rebuild the Project) would have been if the Land and
Project were encumbered by a mortgage equal to eighty percent (80%) of the value
of the Land and the Project. This article shall be enforceable by Landlord and
Landlord's Affiliates. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Tenant for
Tenant's consequential damages and, except with respect to a holdover, in no
event shall Tenant be liable to Landlord for Landlord's consequential damages.

26. Parking.
-------
26.1 Basic Tenant Parking. Subject to the provisions of this Article 26,
-------------------- ----------
Tenant shall rent from Landlord the Parking Spaces (as defined herein) in the
Project's parking facilities ("Parking Facilities") located at the Project
("Tenant's Parking'").
26.2 J-2 Spaces and Level A Spaces. The "Parking Spaces" shall mean the
-----------------------------
number of unreserved parking spaces that Tenant elects to rent hereunder which
number shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 26, not exceed one (1)
----------
parking space per one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of the Initial
Premises. Subject to the provisions of this Article 26, the Parking Spaces shall
----------
be located at the "J-2" parking garage located at 000 X. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx
Xxxxxxx (such located spaces being referred to hereinafter as the "J-2 Spaces")
provided that, of the total number of such spaces, Tenant may elect, in its
discretion, to locate up to one (1) Parking Space per eight thousand (8,000)
rentable square feet of space of the Initial Premises at the parking facilities
located beneath the Project ("Level A Spaces"). With respect to any additional
space added to the Premises pursuant to Tenant's expansion rights contained
herein, the foregoing allocation of parking spaces shall also apply to such
additional space unless otherwise specifically provided herein. If Landlord
temporarily closes access to the Parking Spaces due to any reason, Landlord
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Tenant with Substitute
Parking (as defined below). As used herein, "Substitute Parking" shall mean: (a)
parking within no more than two (2) miles of the Project, in the event such
closure is due to a casualty event or governmental action, or (b) parking within
no more than five (5) blocks if such closure is due to any other reason, and in
any event, with commercially reasonable shuttle service (until at least 11:00
p.m. each evening) from the location of the substitute parking to the Building
if such substitute parking is not located within five (5) blocks of the Project.
26.3 Parking Conditions. Tenant may use Tenant's Parking for the parking
------------------
of automobiles used by Tenant, its subtenants and their respective officers and
employees, subject to payment to Landlord or the operator of the Project's
Parking Facilities of the parking fees (which shall not be greater than the
Prevailing Rates) for parking charged to tenants of the Project; provided,
however, that the fees for the first ten (10) years of the Lease Term shall be
as set forth below. Unless Landlord or the operator of the Parking Facilities
elects otherwise, no parking spaces shall be assigned or reserved for Tenant's
Parking. Subject to the allocation described above between J-2 Spaces and Level
A Spaces, Landlord (i) may reasonably designate the location of Tenant's
Parking, including any spaces reserved for Tenant's Parking, and (ii) may from
time to time reasonably relocate the same (within J-2 or the Project's
subterranean facilities, as the case may be). The use of Tenant's Parking shall
be governed by the reasonable and nondiscriminatory parking rules and
regulations adopted from time to time by Landlord or the operator of the Parking
Facilities. Tenant's business visitors may park on the Parking Facilities on a
space-available basis, upon payment of the prevailing fee for parking charged to
visitors to the Project, which fee shall not exceed the parking fees charged for
comparable visitor parking at First Class Buildings. Subject to the provisions
of this Lease, neither Landlord nor Landlord's parking operator shall have any
Liability or responsibility to Tenant or any other party parking in the Parking
Facilities for any loss or damage that may be occasioned by or may arise out of
such parking, including, without limitation, loss of property or damage to
person or property from any cause whatsoever, and Tenant, in consideration of
the parking privileges hereby conferred on Tenant, waives any and all
Liabilities against Landlord, Landlord's Affiliates and Landlord's parking
operator by reason of occurrences in the Parking Facilities and the driveway
exits and entrances thereto.
41
26.4 Parking Fees. The parking fees listed below for both J-2 Spaces and
------------
Level A Spaces shall be applicable throughout the Lease Term and both Option
Periods and in all cases, shall be inclusive of all taxes, assessments or other
impositions imposed by any governmental entity in connection with Tenant's use
of such Parking Spaces.
(a) Parking fees for the J-2 Spaces provided herein shall be as
follows:
Lease Years Monthly Charge Per Space
1 No Charge
2 $ 85.00
3-5 $100.00

follows:
Lease Years Monthly Charge Per Space
1 No Charge
2 $135.00
3-5 $200.00
6-10 $250.00
11-15 (and all Prevailing Rates
Option
Periods)
26.5 Extra Parking Spaces. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that from time
--------------------
to time "extra parking spaces" (i.e., month-to-month parking spaces which become
available because tenants of ARCO Plaza have elected not to use all of the
parking spaces made available to them pursuant to their respective leases or
because ARCO Plaza is not fully occupied and/or leased at any given time) become
available in the J-2 Garage (collectively, the "Extra Parking Spaces"). The
Extra Parking Spaces are generally made available on a month-to-month basis at
the then prevailing rate therefor, and are subject to cancellation at any given
time upon thirty (30) days prior notice.
To the extent available, Landlord shall make available to Tenant
during the term of the Lease up to one (1) space for every four thousand (4,000)
rentable square feet of the Premises Extra Parking Spaces for Lease by Tenant at
Prevailing Rates in effect from time to time, which Extra Parking Spaces shall
be terminable (as to some or all of the same) by Tenant on thirty (30) days
advance notice, or subject to the provisions of this Section 26.5, by Landlord
------------
on thirty (30) advance days notice as provided below. Once made available and
rented by Tenant, Landlord shall not terminate Tenant's Extra Parking Spaces
unless Landlord is unable to provide any tenant of the Project with the amount
of parking to which such tenant would be able to rent on the basis of one (1)
parking space for every one thousand (1,000) rentable square feet of space
leased by such tenant, or such higher parking ratio that was granted to such
tenant under its lease with Landlord, in which case Landlord may terminate
Tenant's Extra Parking Spaces and make such spaces available to such other
tenant of the Project. The foregoing restriction shall in no event prevent
Landlord from allocating to other tenants of the Project parking spaces in the
J-2 Garage (or elsewhere in the Project) for use by their employees or
contractors who work at the Project on a basis more favorable than the
allocation granted to Tenant under this Lease. Landlord shall terminate,
however, all parking rights of all parties who are not bona fide tenants of the
Project to the extent necessary to make parking privileges available to Tenant
under this Section 26.5.
------------
26.6 Right to Vary. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the
-------------
contrary, Tenant shall have the right throughout the Lease Term (including both
Option Periods), upon thirty (30) days' advance notice to Landlord, to increase
and/or decrease the number of Parking Spaces then rented by Tenant (including
the Extra Parking Spaces).
26.7 Prevailing Rates. For purposes of this Article 26, as used herein,
---------------- ----------
"Prevailing Rates" shall not exceed the parking rates charged for comparable
rights to parking under
42
comparable circumstances provided in the parking garage facilities of other
First Class Buildings located in the area shown on Exhibit "K" attached hereto.
----------
27. Authority To Enter Into Lease.
-----------------------------
If Tenant is a corporation, each individual executing this Lease on behalf
of the corporation represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to
execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the corporation, in accordance with
a duly adopted resolution of the board of directors of said corporation or in
accordance with the by-laws of said corporation, and that this Lease is binding
on the corporation in accordance with its terms. If Tenant is a partnership,
each individual executing this Lease on behalf of the partnership represents and
warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this lease on
behalf of the partnership, in accordance with the partnership agreement and any
statements of partnership or certificates of limited partnership of the
partnership, and that this Lease is binding on the partnership in accordance
with its terms. Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days of the execution of this
Lease, deliver to Landlord: (a) if Tenant is a corporation, a certified copy of
a resolution of the board of directors of the corporation; or (b) if Tenant is a
partnership, a copy of the Statement of Partnership or Certificate of Limited
Partnership of Tenant; and (c) other evidence reasonably satisfactory to
Landlord authorizing or ratifying the execution of this Lease.
This Lease shall be executed by the President and Secretary of Landlord who
is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of Tenant.
28. Relocation.
----------
(a) With respect to partial floor portions of the Premises (other than
Suite 3700) which total less than one half (1/2) of a floor and which are not
contiguous to a full floor portion of the Premises (any such qualifying space
being referred to herein as "Relocation Premises Portion"), subject to the
provisions of this Section 28 and Section 30.7.6.1, Landlord shall have the
---------- ----------------
right, exercisable at any time during the Term by delivery of not less than
ninety (90) days' prior written notice to relocate any such Relocation Premises
Portion to new space in the North Tower at Landlord's sole cost and expense.
(b) The new space to which a Relocation Premises Portion shall be relocated
shall be at least equal to the Relocation Premises Portion in terms of (i) size
and configuration and floor height and (ii) quality, design, layout, condition,
capacity and function of the tenant improvements provided therein.
(c) As a condition to application of this Section 28, Landlord shall
reimburse Tenant within ten (10) days of Tenant's request to do so for all of
Tenant's out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind incurred or expended on
account of or in connection with the relocation, including without limitation,
moving costs, rewiring expenses, equipment and furniture adjustments, rewiring
and replacements, if necessary; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be
required to so reimburse Tenant for the lost time of Tenant's employees located
in the Relocation Premises Portion or for any lost revenues or profits
purportedly lost due to the inconvenience of the relocation.
29. Landlord Renovations.
--------------------
Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1.3 and this Article 29, it is
------------- ----------
specifically understood and agreed that Landlord has made no representation or
warranty to Tenant and has no obligation to alter, remodel, improve, renovate,
repair or decorate the Premises, Project, or any part thereof and that no
representations respecting the condition of the Premises, the Building or the
Project have been made by Landlord to Tenant except as specifically set forth in
this Lease or in the Tenant Work Letter. However, Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord may during the Lease Term renovate, improve, alter, or modify
(collectively, the "Renovations") the Project, Building, Premises, and/or Land,
including without limitation the parking structure, common areas, systems and
equipment, roof, and structural portions of the same, which Renovations may
include, without limitation: (a) installing sprinklers in the Building common
areas and tenant spaces, (b) modifying the common areas and tenant spaces to
comply with applicable laws and regulations, including regulations relating to
the physically disabled, seismic conditions, and building safety and security,
(c) installing new floor covering, lighting, and wall coverings in the Building
common areas, and in connection with any Renovations, Landlord may, among other
43
things, erect scaffolding or other necessary structures in the Building, limit
or eliminate access to portions of the Land, including portions of the common
areas, or perform work in the Building, which work may create noise, dust or
leave debris in the Building, (d) renovation of the main entry to the Building
and the main Building lobby area and (e) renovation of the elevator, lobbies,
elevator doors and frames. Subject to the provisions of this Lease, Tenant
hereby agrees that (i) such Renovations and Landlord's actions in connection
with such Renovations shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction of
Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent, and (ii) Landlord shall have
no responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or
indirect injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from the
Renovations, nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from
Landlord for loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of
Tenant's personal property or improvements resulting from the Renovations or
Landlord's actions in connection with such Renovations, or for any inconvenience
or annoyance occasioned by such Renovations or Landlord's actions in connection
with such Renovations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the
contrary, and except to the extent required by applicable laws, rules,
regulations or orders of any governmental agency having jurisdiction, Landlord
shall not exercise its right under this Section 29 in a manner which would
----------
result in the Project not being maintained or operated in a manner consistent
with the standards or First Class Office Buildings, nor shall the exercise of
Landlord's rights under this Section 29 result in increasing Tenant's Monthly
----------
Rent hereunder or increasing Tenant's payments of its share of Direct Expenses,
except to the extent that Direct Expenses may include the costs of maintaining
and operating portions of the Project affected by such renovations, nor shall
the exercise of Landlord's rights under this Section 29 result in materially and
----------
adversely affecting Tenant's rights, obligations or leasehold interest under
this Lease.
30. Additional Provisions.
---------------------
30.1 Options to Extend Lease Term.
----------------------------
30.1.1 Grant. Tenant is hereby granted two (2) separate options to
-----
extend the Term of this Lease (each such option shall be hereinafter referred to
as an "Extension Option") as to all of the Premises or part of the Premises as
provided in Section 30.1.3, below, each for an additional period of five (5)
--------------
years (each such option period shall be hereinafter referred to as an "Option
Period") commencing on the Expiration Date of the initial Lease Term or the
expiration of the preceding Option Period, as applicable.
As used in this Lease, "Material Event of Default" shall mean a
default, following notice and opportunity to cure as provided herein, which is
material provided any monetary default shall be deemed material.
30.1.2 Exercise. Provided that there is no outstanding uncured
--------
Material Event of Default (as defined below) by Tenant on the date Tenant
exercises an Extension Option, each Extension Option shall be exercised by
Tenant delivering an exercise notice ("Exercise Notice") to Landlord, in
writing, not earlier than eighteen (18) months nor later than twelve (12) months
prior to the Expiration Date of the initial Lease Term, in the case of the first
Extension Option, or the expiration of the preceding Option Period, in the case
of the Second Extension Option.
The Monthly Rent for the Premises for each Option Period shall
be Fair Market Rental Rate (as defined and determined below) for lease of the
same term as the Option Period commencing as of the Expiration Date. The Base
Year during the applicable Option Period shall be the calendar year in which
such Option Period commences.
Subject to the provisions of Section 30.1, if an Extension
------------
Option is duly exercised, then the Lease Term shall automatically be extended
for the applicable Option Period and all of the terms, conditions and provisions
of this Lease, as then amended, shall continue in full force and effect
throughout the applicable Option Period, subject to the provisions of this
Sections 30.1 through 30.8. Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any
------------- ----
and all commercially reasonable documents reasonably requested by Landlord to
memorialize any such extension of the Lease Term. After the timely and proper
exercise of an Extension Option, all references in the Lease to the "Lease shall
be deemed to mean the Lease Term as extended and all references to Term" the
-- --------
"Expiration Date" or the "end of the Lease Term" shall be deemed to mean the
expiration of the Lease Term as extended.
-----------
44
30.1.3 Extension With Respect to Less than All of the Premises. The
-------------------------------------------------------
minimum portion of the Premises with respect to which Tenant may exercise an
Extension Option (the "Extension Premises") shall be one (1) full floor,
provided that Tenant may exercise either Extension Option as to all of the space
Tenant leases hereunder located on the 37th Floor of the South Tower, without
retaining any other portion of the Premises within the Extension Premises. If
Tenant exercises either Extension Option with respect to more than one full
floor, such Extension Premises shall consist of contiguous full floors, except
that: (i) if the Premises includes one or more full floors not contiguous with
Floors 3 and 4 of the North Tower, Tenant may exercise an Extension Option with
respect to one or more of such separated floors (provided Tenant extends with
respect to all or neither of Floors 3 and 4 of the North Tower) and (ii) with
respect to any partial floor space then leased by Tenant, Tenant may, in
addition to the full floor(s) being included within the Extension Premises,
exercise such Extension Option with respect to all(but not less than all) of
such partial floor space (or one or more of such partial floor spaces, if Tenant
then leases hereunder more than one partial floor). In addition, in the event
that Tenant does not exercise an Extension Option as to space on any floor then
included within the Premises hereunder which is connected by an internal
stairwell with another floor then leased by Tenant, Tenant shall, at its sole
cost and expense, shall remove and enclose all portions of such internal
stairwell prior to the Expiration Date with respect to each such floor not
included in the Extension Premises.
30.1.4 Monthly Rent during Each Extension Term.
---------------------------------------
30.1.4.1 Fair Market Rental Rate. The Monthly Rent for each
-----------------------
month during each Option Period shall equal (a) the Fair Market Rental Rate
(defined in Section 30.1.4.3) (expressed as a base rent per rentable square
----------------
foot per month) for a five (5) year lease of space of a size comparable to the
Extension Premises in question in a nonequity, nonrenewal, nonexpansion and
nonsublease transaction in the Market (defined below) as of the commencement
date of such Option Period, multiplied by (b) the number of rentable square feet
to be contained in the Extension Premises in question.
30.1.4.2 Interest Notice Procedure. If Tenant exercises the
-------------------------
Extension Option, Landlord and Tenant shall promptly commence negotiations to
determine the Fair Market Rental Rate (of a five (5) year lease of the Premises
as of the commencement of the Option Period in question). In the event that
Landlord and Tenant shall not have agreed on the Fair Market Rental Rate and
Rent Concessions within twenty (20) days thereafter (the "Submittal Period"),
each party shall submit to the other their good faith estimates of the Fair
Market Rental Rate and Rent Concessions (collectively, the "Estimated Fair
Market Rental Rates"). Within five (5) days following receipt of Landlord's
Estimated Fair Market Rental Rate, Tenant may elect to rescind the exercise of
its option to renew by delivering written notice (the "Recission Notice") of
such election to Landlord and if such notice is delivered, Tenant's right to
extend this Lease shall terminate. If Tenant fails to deliver such Recission
Notice within such five (5) day period, Tenant's right to rescind the exercise
of its option will terminate. Within ten (10) days after the expiration of the
Submittal Period, following the Exercise Deadline, the parties shall select a
mutually acceptable real estate attorney with at least eight (8) years of
experience in negotiating leases for space in high-rise office buildings in the
downtown financial district of Los Angeles. If the parties cannot agree on such
an attorney, then within fifteen (15) days thereafter, each shall select an
independent attorney meeting the above criteria and within fifteen (15) days
thereafter the two appointed attorneys shall select a third attorney meeting the
above criteria and the third attorney shall determine the Fair Market Rental
Rate. If one party shall fail to make such appointment within said fifteen (15)
day period, and such failure continues for five (5) business days after written
notice thereof from the other party, then the attorney chosen by the other party
shall determine the Fair Market Rental Rate. If the two attorneys selected by
Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on a third attorney, the third attorney shall
be selected by the then-sitting Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of
California in and for Los Angeles County. Once the attorney has been selected
as provided above, then, as soon thereafter as practicable, the attorney shall
select one of the two Estimated Fair Market Rental Rates submitted by Landlord
and Tenant pursuant to this Section 30.1.4, which Estimated Fair Market Rental
--------------
Rates shall be the one that is closer to the Fair Market Rental Rate as
determined by the attorney. The rental so selected shall be the Fair Market
Rental Rate. The attorney shall render a decision pursuant hereto within
fifteen (15) days. Landlord and Tenant shall equally share the cost of such
appraisal. The decision in the appraisal on the issue of Fair Market Rental
Rate by the attorney shall be binding on Landlord and Tenant. The "Exercise
45
Deadline" shall be the date twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the
Lease Term (or the first Option Term, as the case may be).
30.1.4.3 Definition of Fair Market Rental Rate. For purposes of
-------------------------------------
this Lease, the Fair Market Rental Rate for (i) the Extension Premises for each
Option Period, or (ii) for any other amount of space in the Project to be leased
by Tenant pursuant to Sections 30.5, 30.6, 30.7, 30.8, 30.10 or 30.19 shall be
------------- ---- ---- ---- ----- -----
equal to the monthly base rental rate at which willing tenants, as of the
commencement of the Option Period (or other lease term in question) in arms-
length transaction, are leasing non-sublease, non-encumbered, non-equity, non-
expansion, non-renewal space comparable in size, location, floor height and
quality to the Extension Premises (or other premises) in question ("Comparable
Transactions") in the Project or in other first-class high-rise office buildings
in the Downtown Los Angeles Central Business District market outlined on Exhibit
-------
"N" attached hereto (the "Market") with appropriate adjustments to account for
---
differences in the Adjustment Factors (as defined below) between the
predetermined terms of the renewal or expansion as set forth herein, and the
terms of the transactions used for comparison. The intent of this provision is
that the determination of Fair Market Rental Rate shall provide for Tenant the
same rent and other economic benefits, and for Landlord the same economic
benefits and burdens, that an independent landlord would give to an independent
comparable tenant in an independent but Comparable Transaction, and to the
extent that the economic concessions which would be granted to a Comparable
Tenant in a comparable transaction differ from those to be provided to Tenant
hereunder, appropriate adjustment (duplicating the adjustment that the open
market would make) in the Fair Market Rental Rate shall be made to account for
such differences. In any determination of Fair Market Rental Rate,
consideration shall be given to any reasonably relevant factors that may be part
of the subject transaction hereunder or the Comparable Transactions used for
purposes of comparison, including without limitation, the following factors (the
"Adjustment Factors"): (a) monthly base rental rates per rentable square foot;
(b) abatement provisions reflecting free rent during the lease term or the grant
of a construction period during which rent is to be paid; (c) any period for
which operating expenses are waived; (d) the size, location and floor height of
the premises being leased, and the size, location, age, quality, prestige,
services and amenities of the Project and the other Buildings, to the extent
such factors are relevant in the marketplace; (e) the condition and market value
of the existing tenant improvements and the existence and amount of any tenant
improvement or comparable allowance; (f) the existence and amount of any other
cash payment or other equivalent concession including, without limitation,
moving allowances, lease takeover allowances (or where a lease assumption is
applicable, the value thereof) and any comparable tenant inducement; (g) the
existence of favorable expansion and/or extension options, and the value
thereof; (h) parking rights or concessions; and (i) whether the lease
transaction in question grants to the tenant any protection from increases in
any component or all of real property taxes, and operating expenses (or
alternatively the exposure to increases in the same), and if so, the amount,
value or cost associated therewith. If in the Comparable Transactions used to
determine Fair Market Rental Rate, it is determined that free rent or cash
allowances should be granted (collectively, "Rent Concessions"), Landlord may
elect either: (a) to grant some or all of the concessions granted hereunder in
cash or (b) to adjust the installments of Monthly Base Rent during such Option
Period to be an effective rental rate which takes into consideration and reduces
monthly rent by the amortized amount of the total dollar value of such Rent
Concessions, amortized on a straightline basis (with an interest rate equivalent
to that used in the Market for such calculations) over the Option Period (in
which case the Rent Concessions so amortized shall not be granted to Tenant);
provided, however that in the event Landlord shall elect to grant such Rent
Concessions in a cash form pursuant to clause (a), Tenant shall have the option
to require Landlord to take such Rent Concessions into account through reduction
of Monthly Base Rent under clause (b), above, (in lieu of granting cash
concessions).
30.2 Refurbishment Allowance at Year 5. Provided Tenant is not in Material
---------------------------------
Default hereunder at such time, on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Rent
Commencement Date, Landlord shall make available to Tenant an allowance ("First
Refurbishment Allowance") payable under the same terms and conditions as the
Tenant Improvement Allowance under the Work Letter, equal to five and no/100
dollars ($5.00) per rentable square foot of Initial 515 Premises for the purpose
of making improvements to all or any portion of the Premises (or all or any
portion of any premises (including any premises on a subterranean level) in the
Project directly leased to Tenant by Landlord pursuant to a separate Lease).
The improvements performed by Tenant shall be performed under the same general
terms and conditions set forth in
46
the Work Letter. Tenant may elect to have all or any portion of the First
Refurbishment Allowance used to offset Monthly Rent next coming due after the
fifth (5th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date.
30.3 Refurbishment Allowance at Year 10. Provided Tenant is not in
----------------------------------
Material Default hereunder at such time and has not terminated this Lease as to
the entire Premises under Section 30.4, on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the
------------
Rent Commencement Date, Landlord shall make available to Tenant an allowance
("Second Refurbishment Allowance") payable under the same terms and conditions
as the Tenant Improvement Allowance under the Work Letter, equal to five and
no/100 dollars ($5.00) per rentable square foot of space then contained in the
515 Premises and in Suite 3700 for the purpose of making improvements to all or
any portion of the Premises (or all or any portion of any premises (including
any premises on a subterranean level) in the Project directly leased to Tenant
by Landlord pursuant to a separate lease). The improvements performed by Tenant
shall be performed under the general same terms and conditions set forth in the
Work Letter; provided, however, that Tenant may elect to apply all or any unused
portion of the Second Refurbishment Allowance to offset Monthly Rent next
becoming due after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date by
delivery of written notice to Landlord at any time after such date.
30.4 Tenant's Option To Terminate. Tenant shall have the option to
----------------------------
terminate (the "Termination Right") this Lease with respect to the entire
Premises or less than all of the Premises as provided in Section 30.4 (d),
----------------
below, (with that portion of the Premises being terminated pursuant to this
Section 30.4 being referred to herein as "Termination Space") as of the tenth
------------
(10th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (the "Termination Date") on the
basis of the following terms and conditions:
(a) The Termination Right shall be exercisable by delivery by Tenant
to Landlord of written notice (the "Termination Notice") on or before the date
that is the ninth (9th) anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date, which notice
shall state that Tenant is terminating this Lease as to the Termination Space as
of the Termination Date. If the Termination Space is to be less than all of the
Premises, in the Termination Notice, Tenant shall designate the Termination
Space.
(b) Tenant shall pay to Landlord, concurrently with delivery of the
Termination Notice, an amount (the "Termination Fee") equal to the Attributed
Unamortized Costs (as defined below), plus one month's Rent (based on the last
month's Rent) for the applicable space terminated. The Attributed Unamortized
Costs shall be determined separately for the portion of the Termination Space
that was leased as part of the Initial Premises hereunder and separately for the
portion of any Additional Space or other space leased subsequent to the Initial
Premises. The Attributable Unamortized Costs for the Initial Premises shall be
determined based on the unamortized portion of the brokerage commissions paid by
Landlord (including both the commissions paid to the Tenant's broker and to the
Landlord's broker). The Attributable Unamortized Costs for any space other than
the Initial Premises shall be determined based on the (i) the unamortized
portion of the brokerage commissions paid by Landlord (including both the
commissions paid to the Tenant's broker and to the Landlord's broker); and (ii)
any tenant improvement costs, tenant improvement allowance, free rent and other
cash tenant inducements granted by Landlord in connection with making the lease
of such additional space. In any case, the total of such costs under (i) and,
if applicable (ii), above, shall be shall be amortized under the "straight line"
amortization method over a period commencing with the applicable commencement
date of the applicable (i.e. terminated) portion of the Premises and ending on
the date which the Lease for such space would have expired if this termination
right had not been exercised. In the case where the applicable Termination Fee
shall include amounts based on terminated space which was not part of the
Initial Premises, (i) at the request of Tenant, Landlord shall consult with
Tenant to clarify the amount of the Termination Fee, and (ii) any payment by
Tenant of a Termination Fee which involves calculations with respect to
terminated space which was not part of the Initial Premises which is not
insubstantially at variance with the actual Termination Fee payable shall not
render any attempted exercise of the Termination Right invalid so long as when
the actual Termination Fee amount is finally calculated, Tenant promptly pays
any deficiency in its Termination Fee payment.
(c) As a condition of exercise of the Termination Right there shall be
no outstanding uncured Material Event of Default on the date of the Termination
Notice delivered by Tenant.
47
(d) The Termination Space may, at Tenant's option, be designated as
(i) the entire Premises, (ii) Suite 3700 only, (iii) any full floor, or full
floors, of the Premises; provided with respect to any block of contiguous full
floors constituting the Premises, Tenant may terminate only the highest or the
lowest floor or floors so that any remaining full floors are contiguous or (iv)
with respect to any partial floor, all the Premises on such floor.
30.5 Storage Space. Tenant shall have the option to rent up to two
-------------
thousand (2,000) usable square feet of storage space ("Storage Space") on the
"D" level of the Project on a month-to-month basis. Once Tenant elects to make
such lease, Tenant may thereafter elect to terminate the lease of such space on
thirty (30) days advance written notice to Landlord; provided, however, that
subject to availability, Tenant shall thereafter have the right upon thirty (30)
days' advance notice to Landlord, to again lease the Storage Space upon the same
terms and conditions as provided herein (including the rental rate). The gross
rental rate for the Storage Space shall be one dollar ($1.00) per usable square
foot of space during the first five (5) Lease Years and the prevailing rate for
storage space in the Project thereafter.

30.7.5 Acceleration And Other Timing Issues.
------------------------------------
The Additional Space Options set forth in Sections 30.7.2,
---------------
30.7.3 and 30.7.4 are exercisable, subject to the provisions of Section 30.7.6,
------ ------ --------------
below, as of the 5th, 7th and 10th anniversaries of the Rent Commencement Date,
respectively (the "Option Space Delivery Dates"). Notwithstanding such fact
(and the provisions of Sections 30.7.2, 30.7.3 and 30.7.4, in the event that at

and is otherwise not subject to any
48
lease, renewal or expansion rights in favor of an independent third party
superior to the rights of Tenant under this Section 30.7.5 which would preclude
--------------
such acceleration ("Potential Acceleration Space"), Tenant may, by delivery of
written notice to such effect, elect to exercise, by delivery of written notice
to Landlord (an "Acceleration Exercise Notice") one or more of the Additional
Space Installment to add to the Premises as of a date (the "Expansion Space

Tenant, the Additional Space Installment(s) desired by Tenant to be so added to
the Premises and the Expansion Space Commencement Date desired with respect
thereto. At the written request of Tenant, Landlord shall provide to Tenant
reasonably complete information from time to time concerning the possible
availability of Potential Acceleration Space and the timing of availability with
respect thereto.
The parties acknowledge that Landlord desires to lease the
Potential Expansion Space for the maximum term possible consistent with
Landlord's obligations to deliver Additional Space Installments of a size,
configuration and location consistent with its obligations under this Section
--------
30.7 and on timing intervals consistent with the Landlord's obligation to
----
deliver Additional Space Installments consistent with its obligations under this
Section 30.7. In order to allow Landlord greater flexibility, subject to the

conditions set forth in this Section 30.7.5, Landlord shall have the right to
--------------
vary the Option Space Delivery Date for each of the second, third and fourth
Additional Space Options as follows:
As to the second Additional Space Option, Landlord may vary the
Option Space Delivery Date for such Additional Space Option from the fifth (5th)
anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date to any date selected by Landlord

anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date (i.e., any date between fifty-four
(54) months and seventy-two (72) months after the Rent Commencement Date) by
delivery of written notice to Tenant specifying the new Option Space Delivery
Date not later than one hundred twenty (120) days before the Exercise Deadline
for the Second Additional Space Option.
As to the third Additional Space Option, Landlord may vary the
Option Space Delivery Date for such Additional Space Option from the 7th
anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date to any date selected by Landlord

30.7.6 Terms Applicable to the Additional Space.
----------------------------------------
30.7.6.1 Additional Space Installments. The specific location,
-----------------------------
configuration and size (within the range of rentable square feet described
below) of Additional Space shall each be determined by Landlord, provided the
configuration shall in each case be a commercially reasonable configuration.
Each Additional Space Installment shall be located on the 5th Floor or the 6th
Floor of the North Tower. An "Additional Space Installment" shall be any space
between five thousand (5,000) and eight thousand (8,000) rentable square feet of

30.7.1, above, may, at Landlord's election be as small as three thousand five
------
hundred (3,500) rentable square feet of space or up to nine thousand five
hundred (9,500) rentable square feet of space if Landlord is satisfying its
obligation hereunder by providing to Tenant the last rentable portion of a

which is the rentable area (in square feet) of the Additional Space Installment
in question, and the denominator of which is the number 2,443,000; and (b) as to
Operating Expenses, a fraction the numerator of which is the rentable area (in
square feet) of the Additional Space Installment in question, and the
denominator of which is the number 2,218,000. The Base Year shall be the year in
which commencement date for such space occurs, provided the obligation of Tenant
to pay Tenant's Share of Excess Direct Expenses with respect to each Additional
Space Installment shall commence on the same date as such obligation shall
commence as to the remainder of the Initial Premises (i.e., on the first
anniversary of the Rent Commencement Date with respect to each Additional Space
Installment).
(ii) Condition of Additional Space. Tenant shall
-----------------------------
lease each Additional Space Installment in its then current condition, "broom
clean" and with the Landlord's Work performed;
(iii) Landlord's Work With Respect to Expansion Space.
Prior to delivery of each Expansion Space to Tenant for commencement of tenant
improvements, Landlord shall, at Landlord's cost and expense (i) provide any
alterations or improvements to the Building Shell and Core required by
Applicable Laws and (ii) in the event that such Expansion Space is not then
separately demised, construct (with Landlord's Building Standard finishes) all
demising walls and public corridors required to separately demise such Expansion
Space, including without limitation, making appropriate adjustments to
distribution of Building Systems and Equipment to account therefor (to the
extent customary to do so in First Class Buildings in demising new space on
multi-tenant floors);
(iv) Additional Corridor Work. Landlord shall
------------------------
reasonably consider a Tenant request that additional corridor work ("Additional
Corridor Work") to be performed as provided in this Section be upgraded to a
quality higher than Building standard, provided such Additional Corridor Work
shall be performed at Tenant's sole cost and expense either by Tenant or, at
Landlord's option, by Landlord (in which case Landlord may require that Tenant
deposit sufficient funds with Landlord for such work) and, provided further,
that Landlord may refuse consent to such plans and specifications if it
determines that the style, finishes or other quality of the Additional Corridor
Work would be inconsistent with the image and quality of corridors Landlord then
desires.
(v) Parking. Tenant shall be entitled to the same
-------
number of J-2 Spaces and Level A Spaces for each such Additional Space
Installment (in terms of parking privileges per one thousand [1,000] rentable
square feet of area) as is applicable to the remainder of the Initial Premises
and the parking fees with respect to each Additional Space Installment Parking
Spaces shall be at Prevailing Rates; and
(vi) The Rent Commencement Date. The Rent
--------------------------
Commencement Date for each Additional Space Installment will be the earlier of
(i) the date Tenant commences business operations in the Additional Space
Installment; and (ii) one hundred five (105) days (or ninety [90] days if the
Additional Space Installment is delivered in shell conditions) following
Landlord's delivery of such space for the purpose of performing Tenant's
construction of tenant improvements to the Additional Space, which construction
period shall be extended one (1) day for each day of Construction Period Delay.
30.7.6.3 Failure to Deliver. In the event that Landlord shall
------------------
fail to deliver any Additional Space Installment by the Option Space Delivery
Date and/or the Expansion Space Commencement Date, as the case may be, Tenant
shall have all of the same
50
rights with respect thereto as are provided to Tenant under
Section 3.2.1 (for the failure to deliver) with respect to the failure to
-------------
deliver any such Additional Space Installment.
30.8 Right of First Offer.
--------------------
30.8.1 Request For Availability.
------------------------
At any time during the Lease Term, but not more frequently
than twice in any calendar year, Tenant may deliver to Landlord a written
request ("Request for Notice of Availability") which request shall: (i)
expressly reference this Section 30.8 of the Lease and Landlord's obligation
------------
to respond in writing to such request within ten (10) days of receipt as
provided below; and (ii) request that Landlord identify a space available (the
"Availability Space") located in the elevator bank (i.e, the 3rd through 12th
floors) for the Premises. Landlord shall respond to Tenant's request with a
written notice of the availability ("Notice of Availability") of the
Availability Space within fifteen (15) days following receipt of the Request for
Notice of Availability, which Notice shall state any Availability Space which
Landlord is then offering to lease. If Landlord's Notice of Availability states
that any of Availability Space is available for lease, such notice shall also
state the Monthly Rent, lease term and a general description of the other
material terms that Landlord is willing to Lease such space to Tenant. If Tenant
does not accept the terms offered by Landlord within ten (10) days of receipt of
Landlord's Notice of Availability by written notice to Landlord, such Notice of
Availability shall terminate and be of no further force or effect as to such
Availability Space; provided, however, that if Landlord thereafter desires to
lease such space identified in the Availability Notice on terms and/or
conditions materially more economically favorable to a tenant than those
contained in the Notice of Availability, Landlord shall first offer such space
to Tenant on such different terms and/or conditions and Tenant shall then have
ten (10) business days within which to elect in writing to lease such space.
Leasing terms shall not be considered "materially more economically favorable"
unless such terms constitute at least a five percent (5%) discount to the tenant
from the terms contained in the Notice of Availability.
30.8.2 Delivery Date. Any Tenant lease of the Availability Space
-------------
shall be for a term commencing with the date identified in Landlord's Notice of
Availability (as such date may be adjusted in accordance with the terms below
the "Availability Space Delivery Date") and ending on the Expiration Date of
this Lease; provided, that if Landlord's Notice of Availability states that such
space is available for a term shorter or longer than the term of the Lease, and
Landlord has commercially reasonable reasons for establishing the availability
at such shorter or longer term, Tenant must either accept or not accept the
Availability Space for such stated term. Landlord shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Availability Space to Tenant in
its then "as is" condition on or reasonably prior to the Availability Space
Delivery Date.
30.8.3 Third Party Rights. The rights of Tenant under this Section
------------------ -------
30.8 are subject to any extension, expansion or other third party rights
----
existing prior to the date of this Lease affecting the Availability Space.
Except as expressly provided in this Section 30.8, Landlord shall not be
------------
restricted from leasing the Availability Space to any third party and in no
event shall Landlord be restricted from extending the lease term of any tenant
leasing the Availability Space.
30.9 Non-Disturbance Agreement. Tenant and the first deed-of-trust holder
-------------------------
on the Project (the "Bank") (on behalf of all existing Superior Mortgagees) have
executed and delivered concurrently with its execution and delivery of this
Lease a non-disturbance, subordination and attornment agreement ("Non-
Disturbance Agreement"), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
-------
"H".
---
30.10 Available Month-to-Month Leasing. Provided Tenant is not in default
--------------------------------
hereunder, at any time during the Term hereof, Tenant may request that Landlord
lease to Tenant on a month-to-month basis space in the Project ("Month-to-Month
Space") of a minimum of three thousand (3,000) rentable square feet and a
maximum of ten thousand (10,000) rentable square feet. If appropriate space is
available in the Project, Landlord shall identify and lease such space to Tenant
on a month-to month basis at Landlord's prevailing rates and other terms and
conditions for month-to-month tenancies at the Premises. In no event shall
Landlord be obligated to provide more than ten thousand (10,000) rentable square
feet of Month-to-Month Space whether or not such space is available in the
Project. All Month-to-Month Space leased to
51
Tenant hereunder shall be subject to termination by Landlord or Tenant on thirty
(30) days advance written notice to the other.
30.11 Satellite Antenna.
-----------------
30.11.1 Subject to Tenant obtaining the prior approval of all Federal
and all other regulatory agencies (if required) and the obtaining of all
necessary permits with respect to the Antenna (defined below), Landlord hereby

Landlord's option, a mechanical floor ("Antenna Location")of the Project, at
Tenant's sole cost and expense, in an area not to exceed four (4) feet in
diameter contiguous area of at least six feet (6') by six (6'), a satellite
antenna dish (collectively, the "Antenna") and cables connecting the same to
the Premises. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with Tenant in designating a
location for the Antenna providing favorable transmission. Upon the

time.
30.11.2 Landlord shall permit Tenant, without charge, reasonable
access to the Antenna Location for the purposes permitted hereunder during
Normal Business Hours at the Building and subject to for Landlord's reasonable
charge, on a 24-hour, seven days a week basis upon reasonable advance notice and

alterations to the Project or to exhibit the Antenna Location to prospective
tenants and purchasers.
30.11.3 Tenant shall not install the Antenna, or thereafter make any
alterations, additions or improvements to the Building or any part thereof or to
the Antenna without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Landlord shall approve or reject
the proposed installation of the Antenna within two (2) weeks after Tenant
submits (i) complete plans and specifications for the installation of the
Antenna, (ii) copies of all required governmental and quasi-governmental
permits, licenses and authorizations which Tenant shall obtain at its own
expense and (iii) a certificate of insurance evidencing the coverage required
herein. Landlord may withhold approval if the installation or operation of the
Antenna may damage the structural integrity of the Building, interfere with any
service provided by Landlord or any occupant or interfere with any Building
System, reduce the amount of leasable space in the Building, detract from the
appearance of the Building, or for any other reasonable ground. Landlord may
require that any installation or other work be done under the supervision of
Landlord's employees or agents, and in a manner so as to avoid damage to the
Building. All installation work shall be performed in a good and xxxxxxx-like
manner, in accordance with all governmental requirements.
30.11.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Lease, such Antenna shall remain the property of Tenant and upon termination of
this Lease or Tenant's right granted hereunder, by expiration or otherwise,
Tenant shall disconnect and remove the Antenna and fully repair and restore the

the term of this Lease and upon termination of this Lease or the right granted
hereunder, any damage or injury to the Antenna Location, or the Building (or
contents thereof) caused by Tenant's use of the Antenna Location or its
installation, maintenance or removal of the Antenna.
30.11.5 Landlord does not represent or warrant that the use of the
Antenna Location hereunder shall comply with any applicable federal, state,
county or local laws or ordinances or the regulations of any other agencies, or
that the Antenna Location shall be suitable for Tenant's purposes. Tenant agrees
that Tenant has inspected the Antenna Location and agrees to accept the same
hereunder in its "as is" and "all faults" condition. Tenant shall at all times
comply with any applicable federal, state, county or local laws or ordinances,
pertaining to Tenant's use of the Antenna Location or the Antenna. Tenant shall
not use the Antenna Location or the Antenna so as to interfere in any way with
the ability of Landlord or its tenants and occupants of the Building and
neighboring properties to receive radio, television, telephone, microwave,
short-wave, long-wave or other signals of any sort that are transmitted through
the air or atmosphere, nor so as to interfere with the use of electric,
electronic or other facilities,
52
appliances, personal property and fixtures, nor so as to interfere with the use
of any antennas, satellite dishes or other electronic or electric equipment or
facilities currently or hereafter located on the Antenna Location or any floor
or area of the Building; provided, however that Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to avoid the use of any antennas, satellite dishes or other
electronic or electric equipment or facilities that interfere with the ability
of Tenant to receive the same.
30.11.6 If the Antenna Location, Building or Antenna are materially
damaged by fire or other casualty, this license shall terminate as of the date
of such damage, subject to any the provisions of Article 14, which by the terms
----------
or reasonable implication shall survive such termination. Landlord shall have
no obligation to provide substitute space on the Antenna Location or to repair
or restore the Antenna Location or the Building or the Satellite Antenna. In
the event of such damage, Tenant shall look solely to its insurers for any
claims that Tenant may have in connection with such damage or destruction.
30.11.7 Landlord's and Tenant's respective indemnity obligations
provided in Article 22 shall apply with respect to the rights granted to Tenant
----------
under this Section 30.11, such amounts, and subject to the terms and conditions,
-------------
provided in Article 13.
----------

-------------
the terms of this Lease) coupled with an interest, which license shall
terminate concurrently with any termination of this Lease. Tenant's rights
under this Section shall not be assignable, nor may Tenant sub-license its
rights under this Section 30.11, other than to an Affiliate Transferee.
-------------
Tenant may not let any other party tie into or use the Antenna
or the Antenna Location, and Tenant may not transmit or distribute signals
through the Antenna to any parties not affiliated with Tenant. The rights
granted herein are personal to Tenant and its Affiliate Transferees. Any default
by Tenant under this Section 30.11 shall also be a default under this Lease.
-------------
30.12 Monument Signage. Landlord agrees to request ARCO and BankAmerica
----------------
(each party having rights to restrict exterior signage of the Project) in
connection with the obtaining rights to place a sign upon the existing monument
sign (the "Remodeled Monument Sign") outside of the North Tower on the Flower
Street side of the Project and only if such rights are obtained shall Tenant
have its rights under this Section 30.12. Tenant may deliver written notice
-------------
(the "Monument Notice") notifying Landlord that Tenant elects to have its name
placed on the Remodeled Monument Sign subject to the terms of this Section. The
Monument Notice may be delivered anytime prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of
the Commencement Date, provided that if Landlord delivers to Tenant a notice
that Landlord intends to proceed with the construction of the Remodeled Monument
Sign, at its expense, subject to the expense of Tenant to pay its share as
provided herein if Tenant elects to have its name on such Remodeled Monument
sign, Tenant shall be required to send the Monument Notice, if at all, within
thirty (30) days following the receipt of such notice by Landlord. Tenant's
failure to timely deliver the Monument Notice will cause all rights of Tenant
under this Section 30.12 to terminate. If Tenant properly delivers the Monument
-------------
Notice (and provided Landlord has received the consent as required in the first
sentence of this Section), Landlord shall promptly proceed to construct the
Remodeled Monument Sign and Tenant shall have the right to have its "Approved
Name" (as that term is defined below) placed on such Remodeled Monument Sign.
In no event shall this Section 30.13 require Landlord to agree to any
-------------
concessions in favor of ARCO or BankAmerica in order to obtain the right to
place a monument sign at the Project. The Approved Name shall be initially
"DMJM" or "AeCom". Tenant may request that the initial name be changed (which
change, if made, shall be at Tenant's sole cost and expense) to another name,
and Landlord may reject such request if (i) the name is not the, logo, trade
name, or another name associated with DMJM, AeCom, any corporate successor to
either of the same, or an affiliate of the foregoing, (ii) is a name that is
inconsistent with the standards for monument signs in First Class Buildings,
(iii) contains more than twenty (20) characters (including empty spaces), or
(iv) violates any restrictions Landlord may have agreed with any third party as
to acceptable names for signage of the Project, provided no such restrictions
shall prohibit the names of architectural, engineering or project management
firms for real estate construction projects. Matters of appearance of the
letters of the Approved Name shall be subject to Landlord's reasonable approval,
consistent with the standards of the First Class Building. Tenant's rights
under this Section 30.13 shall be conditional upon satisfaction of each of the
-------------
following conditions:
53
(a) If and to the extent such approval and consent is a then
contractual obligation of Landlord's, the delivery to Landlord of the approval
and consent by both BankAmerica and ARCO (or its corporate successor) with
respect to the construction and modification of the Remodeled Monument Sign.
Landlord shall pursue such approval and consent in good faith; and
(b) The issuance to Landlord of all permits, consents, entitlements
and approvals (in form reasonably satisfactory to Landlord) required under Law
for the modification, operation and continued existence of the Remodeled
Monument Sign. Landlord shall pursue the same in good faith.
(c) The reimbursement by Tenant to Landlord within thirty (30) days
following Landlord's delivery of a statement of such costs, and subject to the
terms set forth below, or all the Initial Monument Costs (as defined below).
The "Initial Monument Costs" shall mean the out-of-pocket costs incurred by
Landlord in designing, obtaining the permits for (including attorney's fees and
consultant's fees) and constructing the Remodeled Monument Sign.
Tenant's name shall appear on the side of the Remodeled Monument Sign
facing Flower Street and Landlord may add up to three tenant, tenant-related or
Landlord names on such side in addition to that of Tenant. The area of the
field designated at Tenant's Approved Name shall be no less than twenty five
percent (25%) of the total area designated for the appearance of names on the
side of the Remodeled Monument Sign facing south. Following the placement of
each new name on the side of the Remodeled Monument Sign facing south, Landlord
shall promptly reimburse twenty five percent (25%) (or thirty three and one
third [33 1/3] if Landlord elects to have only three [3] total names) of the
amount of the Initial Monument Cost paid by Tenant. If Landlord places names on
the side of the Remodeled Monument Sign facing north, then Tenant's signage
rights on such side shall be substantially the same as those provided herein
with respect to the south-facing side.
30.13 Interior Signage. With respect to those portions of the Premises
----------------
which comprise an entire floor of the Building, Tenant may install, at its sole
cost and expense, signs identifying Tenant to the public including, its logo,
etc., on elevator lobby walls on all floors on which identification signage for
itself, its assignees, sublessees, Affiliates and other occupants
("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. If other tenants occupy space on the floor on which
the Premises is located, Tenant's identifying signage shall comply with
Landlord's Building standard signage program.
30.14 Competitors. Landlord agrees that Landlord shall not, during the term
-----------
of this Lease, so long as Original Tenant (or either of them) and its Affiliates
occupy at least ninety-eight thousand five hundred (98,500) rentable square feet
or more in the Project (other than by reason of any temporary failure to occupy
by reason of alterations, condemnation, damage or destruction or prevention of
use under Section 14.1 (the "Signage Occupancy Threshold"), use any of the
------------
names listed in Exhibit "I" attached hereto (the "Competitors") to name or
-----------
otherwise identify the North Tower (including, without limitation, on any
exclusive or multi-tenant monument, parapet, eyebrow, building top or other
exterior identification signage or ground floor lobby signage located in, on or
identifying the North Tower, whether existing or to be constructed following
the date hereof, provided however that if Landlord leases space constituting
more than one hundred forty percent (140%) of the size of the Premises to a
Competitor ("Larger Competitor Tenant") the foregoing restrictions shall not
apply to such Larger Competitor Tenant and Landlord may grant such signage
rights as it desires to such Larger Competitor Tenant. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the rights granted to Tenant shall no longer apply
due to Tenant's failure to meet the Signage Occupancy Threshold, and subject to
all signage rights that Landlord may have provided (whether to a Competitor or
other party) or be currently in negotiations to provide, in the event that
Tenant shall thereafter satisfy such Signage Occupancy Threshold, and deliver
written notice to Landlord that Tenant again has satisfied such requirement,
then the rights granted to Tenant under this Section 30.14 shall thereafter
-------------
apply.
30.15 Use of Stairwells. Subject to all Applicable Laws and insurance
-----------------
requirements, (i) Tenant will have use of the existing stairwells between the
contiguous full floors in the Building leased by Tenant hereunder for purposes
of the ingress and egress of its
54
employees and their guests and (ii) Tenant may extend its security system to
encompass such stairwells.
30.16 Abatement of Rent. In the event that Tenant is prevented from using,
-----------------
and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof as a result of: (i) any
repair, renovation, remodeling, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord,
or any repair, renovation, remodeling, maintenance or alteration which is
required by this Lease and which Landlord has failed to perform, which
substantially interferes with Tenant's use of, or access to, the Premises, (ii)
any failure to provide services or access to the Premises, (iii) damage and
destruction of the Premises or Building, or (iv) the presence of "Hazardous
Materials" (each such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i) and (iv),
above, to be known as an "Abatement Event"), then Tenant shall give Landlord
notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for(a)
twenty-four (24) hours with respect to telecommunications services or (b) three
(3) consecutive business days after Landlord's receipt of any such notice or
seven (7) days after Landlord's receipt of any such notice in any twelve (12)
month period (the "Eligibility Period"), then Tenant's Monetary Obligations,
shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the
Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from
using, and does not use, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion
that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented
from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises;
provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does
not use, a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the
Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is not sufficient
to allow Tenant to conduct its business therein, and if Tenant does not conduct
its business from such remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of
the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from conducting its
business therein, Tenant's Monetary Obligations for the entire Premises shall be
abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does
not use, the Premises.
If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such
period, the Monthly Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the
proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises
bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant
from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises. Such right to
xxxxx Tenant's Monetary Obligations and Tenant's obligation to pay for parking
shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy at law or in equity with regard to
an abatement of Rent in connection with an Abatement Event; provided, however,
that if Landlord has not cured such Abatement Event within one hundred eighty
(180) days after receipt of notice from Tenant (or, in the event that the
Premises or the Building are rendered inaccessible to Tenant by a casualty or
act of Landlord, one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of Landlord's
actual knowledge of the occurrence of the Abatement Event), Tenant shall have
the right to terminate this Lease during the first ten (10) business days of
each calendar month following the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day
period until such time as Landlord has cured the Abatement Event, which right
may be exercised only by delivery of thirty (30) days' notice to Landlord (the
"Abatement Event Termination Notice") during such ten (10) business-day period,
and shall be effective as of a date set forth in the Abatement Event Termination
Notice (the "Abatement Event Termination Date"), which Abatement Event
Termination Date shall not be less than thirty (30) days, and not more than six
(6) months, following the delivery of the Abatement Event Termination Notice.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 30.16 to the contrary,
-------------
Tenant's Abatement Rent Termination Notice shall be null and void if Landlord
cures such Abatement Event within such thirty (30) day period following receipt
of the Abatement Event Termination Notice. If Tenant's right to abatement
occurs because of an eminent domain taking and/or because of damage or
destruction to the Premises, Tenant's abatement period shall continue until
Tenant has been given sufficient time and sufficient access to the Premises to
rebuild that portion of the Premises, if any, which it is required to rebuild
pursuant to this Lease and to install its property, furniture, fixtures, and
equipment and to move in over a weekend. To the extent Tenant is entitled to
abatement without regard to the Eligibility Period, because of an event
described in Article 14, above, then the Eligibility Period shall not be
----------
applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall not have the right to
terminate this Lease pursuant to the terms of this Section 30.16, if, as of the
-------------
date of delivery by Tenant of the Abatement Event Termination Notice, (a) the
first trust deed holder of the Building (the "Bank") has recorded a notice of
default on the Building or filed a notice evidencing a legal action by the Bank
against Landlord on the Building, and (b) the Bank diligently proceeds to gain
possession of the Premises and, to the extent Bank does gain possession of the
Premises, Bank shall diligently
55
proceeds to cure such Abatement Event. Except as provided in this Section 30.16,
-------------
nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused
from paying Rent due hereunder.
30.17 Measurement of Rentable Square Feet. Whenever it is required that the
-----------------------------------
rentable square footage of space be determined hereunder, such determination
shall be made in accordance with the BOMA Standard Method for Measuring Floor
Area in Office Buildings, ANSI Z65.1-1996. Notwithstanding any provision of
this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant shall each have the right,
within ninety (90) days following the Commencement Date, to verify the number of
rentable square feet provided in Section 1(h) above with respect to Suite 3700.
------------
30.18 Arbitration
-----------
30.18.1 General Submittals to Arbitration. The submittal of all
---------------------------------
matters to arbitration in accordance with the terms, covenants and conditions of
this Section 30.18 is the sole and exclusive method, means and procedure to
-------------
resolve any and all claims, disputes or disagreements arising under this Lease,
including, but not limited to any matter relating to Landlord's failure to
approve an assignment, sublease or other transfer of Tenant's interest in the
Lease under Article 15 of this Lease, any other defaults by Landlord, or any
----------
Tenant Default, except for (i) all claims by either party which (a) seek
anything other than enforcement of rights under this Lease, or (b) are primarily
founded upon matters of fraud, willful misconduct, bad faith or any other
allegations of tortious action, and seek the award of punitive or exemplary
damages, (ii) claims relating to Landlord's exercise of any unlawful detainer
rights pursuant to California law or rights or remedies used by Landlord to gain
possession of the Premises or terminate Tenant's right of possession to the
Premises, which disputes shall be resolved by suit filed in the Superior Court
of Los Angeles County, California, the decision of which court shall be subject
to appeal pursuant to Applicable Law, and (iii) claims relating to the
determination of Fair Market Rental. The parties hereby irrevocably waive any
and all rights to the contrary and shall at all times conduct themselves in
strict, full, complete and timely accordance with the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Section 30.18 and all attempts to circumvent the terms,
-------------
covenants and conditions of this Section 30.18 shall be absolutely null and void
-------------
and of no force or effect whatsoever. As to any matter submitted to arbitration
(except with respect to the payment of money) to determine whether a matter
would, with the passage of time, constitute a default, such passage of time
shall not commence to run until any such affirmative arbitrated determination,
as long as it is simultaneously determined in such arbitration that the
challenge of such matter as a potential Tenant Default or Landlord default was
made in good faith. As to any matter submitted to arbitration with respect to
the payment of money, to determine whether a matter would, with the passage of
time, constitute a default, such passage of time shall not commence to run in
the event that the party which is obligated to make the payment does in fact
make the payment to the other party. Such payment can be made "under protest,"
which shall occur when such payment is accompanied by a good faith notice
stating the reasons that the party has elected to make a payment under protest.
Such protest will be deemed waived unless the subject matter identified in the
protest is submitted to arbitration as set forth in this Section 30.18.
-------------
30.18.2 JAMS. Any dispute to be arbitrated pursuant to the provisions
----
of this Section 30.18.2 shall be determined by binding arbitration before a
---------------
retired judge of the Superior Court of the State of California (the
"Arbitrator") under the auspices of Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services,
Inc. ("JAMS"), provided such person has had extensive experience in regularly
representing landlords and tenants in commercial real estate office leases
("Required Experience"). Such arbitration shall be initiated by the parties, or
either of them, within ten (10) days after either party sends Notice (the
"Arbitration Notice") of a demand to arbitrate to the other party and to JAMS.
The Arbitration Notice shall contain a description of the subject matter of the
arbitration, the dispute with respect thereto, the amount involved, if any, and
the remedy or determination sought. The parties may agree on a retired judge
from the JAMS panel who has the Required Experience. If they are unable to
promptly agree, JAMS will provide a list of three (3) available judges who have
the Required Experience and each party may strike one (1). The remaining judge
(or if there are two, the one selected by JAMS) will serve as the Arbitrator. In
the event that JAMS shall no longer exist or if JAMS fails or refuses to accept
submission of such dispute or does not have available retired judges with the
Required Experience, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration
before the American
56
Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the AAA's commercial arbitration rules
then in effect, except that the arbitrator selected must have the Required
Experience.
30.18.3 Arbitration Procedure.
---------------------
30.18.3.1 Pre-Decision Actions. The Arbitrator shall
--------------------
schedule a pre-hearing conference to resolve procedural matters, arrange for the
exchange of information, obtain stipulations and narrow the issues. The parties
will submit proposed discovery schedules to the Arbitrator at the pre-hearing
conference. The scope and duration of discovery will be within the sole
discretion of the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator shall have the discretion to order
a pre-hearing exchange of information by the parties, including, without
limitation, production of requested documents, exchange of summaries of
testimony of proposed witnesses, and examination by deposition of parties and
third-party witnesses. This discretion shall be exercised in favor of discovery
reasonable under the circumstances.
30.18.3.2 The Decision. The arbitration shall be conducted
------------
in Los Angeles, California. Any party may be represented by counsel or other
authorized representative. In rendering a decision(s), the Arbitrator shall
determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive
and procedural laws of the State of California and the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Lease. The Arbitrator's decision shall be based on the
evidence introduced at the hearing, including all logical and reasonable
inferences therefrom. The Arbitrator may make any determination, and/or grant
any remedy or relief (an "Arbitration Award") that is just and equitable. The
decision must be based on, and accompanied by, a written statement of decision
explaining the factual and legal basis for the decision as to each of the
principal controverted issues. The decision shall be conclusive and binding, and
it may thereafter be confirmed as a judgment by the Superior Court of the State
of California, subject only to challenge on the grounds set forth in the
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1286.2. The validity and
enforceability of the Arbitrator's decision is to be determined exclusively by
the California courts pursuant to the terms, covenants and conditions of this
Lease. The Arbitrator shall award costs, including without limitation attorneys'
fees, and expert and witness costs, to the prevailing party as defined in
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1032 ("Prevailing Party"), if any, as
determined by the Arbitrator in his discretion. The Arbitrator's fees and costs
shall be paid by the non-prevailing party as determined by the Arbitrator in his
discretion. A party shall be determined by the Arbitrator to be the prevailing
party if its proposal for the resolution of dispute is the closer to that
adopted by the Arbitrator.
30.19 37th Floor Right of First Refusal.
---------------------------------
30.19.1 Restriction. During the Term of this Lease, Landlord shall
-----------
not enter into any direct lease covering any portion of the 37th Floor of the
South Tower without first complying with each and all of the provisions of this
Section 30.19.
-------------
30.19.2 First Refusal Notice. In the event that Landlord shall
--------------------
determine that it desires to lease all or any portion of the remainder of the
37th Floor of the South Tower ("Remainder Space") and has reached agreement with
the proposed tenant on the primary economic terms of a proposed lease with
respect thereto, it shall deliver a written notice of such fact to Tenant (a
"Refusal Notice"), which Refusal Notice shall (i) describe the location, size
and configuration of the portion of the Remainder Space proposed to be so leased
("Proposed Space"), all material terms of the proposed transaction, the identity
of the proposed tenant and the nature of the proposed tenant's use and business
to be conducted in the Proposed Space, (ii) shall enclose a copy of the executed
letter of intent for the proposed transaction (which shall conform to the
requirements of this Section 30.19) and a copy of any mutually executed lease,
-------------
side letters or other executed agreements concerning the proposed transaction.
In the event that the proposed transaction is proposed to affect more space in
the Project than the Remainder Space, the Refusal Notice shall cover the entire
proposed transaction but shall propose a fair and equitable allocation (and
application) of terms of such transaction to the Remainder Space. The Refusal
Notice shall constitute an offer ("Lease Offer") by Landlord to lease to Tenant
the Remainder Space (or so much thereof that is proposed to be leased in
connection with the proposed transaction) on the same primary economic terms as
are being proposed for the Remainder Space in the proposed transaction described
in the Refusal Notice. For purposes of this Section 30.19, "primary economic
-------------
terms" means term, commencement date, base rent, base year, method for
allocating operating expenses, tenant improvement allowance, landlord's work,
free rent, other allowances or economic inducements, parking privileges and
parking rent, tenant
57
improvement construction period, "Proposition 13" treatment (or similar
treatment) if any, special handling of direct charges, options or other rights
to expand or extend and other term which an experienced, sophisticated tenant or
tenant broker would consider a primary economic term (and which is generally
performable (in the case of tenant obligations) by most financially qualified
tenants).
30.19.3 Acceptance By Tenant. Following receipt of a proper Refusal
--------------------
Notice (and all materials required to be given in connection therewith in
connection with Section 30.19.2 (collectively, "Refusal Notice Materials"),
---------------
Tenant shall be granted fifteen (15) business days to consider the Lease Offer
contained therein. In the event that Tenant shall, pursuant to a written notice
of acceptance delivered to Landlord during such fifteen (15) business day
period, accept the Lease Offer, the Remainder Space that is offered to be leased
in the Lease Offer shall be added to the Premises on all of the primary economic
terms stated in the Lease Offer and otherwise on all of the terms and conditions
set forth in this Lease, as then amended; provided, however, in the event that
the space proposed to be leased to the proposed tenant in the proposed
transaction covers more than the Remainder Space, the Lease Offer shall be
deemed to cover only the Remainder Space and the primary economic terms relating
thereto shall be a reasonable and equitable allocation and application of the
terms of the proposed transaction to the Remainder Space. In the event that the
Lease Offer is not so accepted by Tenant within such fifteen (15) business day
period, Landlord shall be authorized to complete the proposed transaction
described in the Refusal Notice with the proposed tenant described therein
within one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter; provided, however, in the event
that Landlord desires to lease the Remainder Space in question to a different
tenant or to change the terms of the lease where the overall economic terms
described in the Lease Offer are more favorable to Tenant by five percent (5%)
or more, or otherwise does not duly execute and consummate the proposed lease
within such one hundred twenty (120) day period, the provisions of this Section
30.19 shall once again apply (as if no Refusal Notice had been previously given)
and Landlord shall be required to deliver a new Refusal Notice to Tenant
hereunder.
30.19.4 During the entire Term, Tenant's rights under this Section
-------
30.19 shall be superior to the rights of all other tenants in the Project.
-----
Landlord shall provide written notice of Tenant's rights to all prospective
tenants of the Remainder Space.
31. General Provisions.
------------------
31.1 Joint Obligation. Subject to the provisions of Section 15.8, if there
---------------- ------------
is more than one person, firm, corporation, partnership or other entity
comprising Tenant, then (i) the term "Tenant" as used herein shall include all
of the undersigned; (ii) each and every provision in this Lease shall be binding
on each and every of the undersigned; (iii) Landlord shall have the right to
join one or all of the undersigned in any proceeding or to proceed against them
in any order; and (iv) Landlord shall have the right to release any one or more
of the undersigned without in any way prejudicing its right to proceed against
the others.
31.2 Marginal Headings. The titles to the articles and Sections of this
-----------------
Lease are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect on the construction
or interpretation.
31.3 Time. Time is of the essence for the performance of each and every
----
provision of this Lease to be performed by Tenant.
31.4 Successors And Assigns. Subject to the restrictions contained in

Section 15, above, this Lease binds the heirs, executors, administrators,
----------
successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
31.5 Recordation. Tenant shall not record this Lease or a short form
-----------
memorandum hereof without the prior written consent of Landlord, other than that
certain Memorandum of Lease in the form of Exhibit "M" attached hereto.
-----------
31.6 Late Charges. Tenant acknowledges that late payment of rent shall
------------
cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount
of which shall be extremely difficult to ascertain. These costs include, but
are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which
may be imposed on Landlord by the terms of any Superior Leases and Mortgages.
Accordingly, subject to the provisions of this Section 31.6, if any installment
------------
of Monthly Rent or scheduled periodic monthly payment of additional rent (the
58
timing and amount of each has been provided to Tenant in writing reasonably in
advance of the due date therefor) due from Tenant is not received by Landlord or
Landlord's designee within five (5) days after the amount is due, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord a late charge equal to two percent (2%) of the overdue amount.
Acceptance of late charges by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant's
default with respect to the overdue amount, nor prevent Landlord from exercising
any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder or at law or in equity.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall not
charge Tenant any such late charge for the first two (2) occurrences ("Grace
Occurrences") during any calendar year with respect to which a late charge would
otherwise be payable hereunder so long as any such payment to which such Grace
Occurrences would otherwise apply is paid in full within five (5) days of
delivery of written notice of the delinquency of such payment by Landlord to
Tenant.
31.7 Prior Agreements; Amendment, Waiver. This Lease contains all of the
-----------------------------------
agreements of the parties hereto with respect to any matter covered or mentioned
in this Lease, and no prior agreements or understanding pertaining to any such
matters shall be effective for any purpose. No provision of this Lease may be
amended or added to except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties
hereto or their respective successors in interest. All waivers hereunder must
be in writing and specify the breach, act, omission, term, covenant or condition
waived, and acceptance of payment or other acts or omissions by either party
shall not be deemed to be a waiver. The waiver by any party hereto of any
breach, act, omission, term, covenant or condition of this Lease shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, act, omission, term,
covenant or condition.
31.8 Inability To Perform. Any material prevention, delay or stoppage due
--------------------
to strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, acts of God, material inability to obtain
services, labor, or materials or reasonable substitutes therefor (other than by
reason of a party's failure or inability to pay for the same), governmental
actions, civil commotions, fire or other casualty, and other causes beyond the
reasonable control of the party obligated to perform (collectively, the "Force
Majeure" or a "Force Majeure Event"), except with respect to the obligations
imposed with regard to Rent and other charges to be paid by Tenant pursuant to
this Lease, shall excuse the performance of such party for a period equal to any
such prevention, delay or stoppage and, therefore, if this Lease specifies a
time period for performance of an obligation of either party, that time period
shall be extended by the period of any such delay in such party's performance
caused by a Force Majeure. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the
contrary, the provisions of this Section 31.8 shall not apply to the following
------------
(a) the provisions of the Work Letter, (b) Landlord's obligations under Section
-------
3.2.1 and (c) the rights of termination of either party under Article 14 and
----- ----------
Sections 3.2.1, 30.4, 30.7 and 30.16 of the Lease.

-----------------
in any way to this Lease, the court or other person or entity having
jurisdiction in such action or proceeding shall award to the party in whose
favor judgment is entered the actual attorneys' fees and costs incurred. The
party in whose favor judgment is entered may, at its election submit proof of
fees and costs as an element of damages before entry of judgment or after entry
of judgment in a post-judgment cost xxxx.

----------------------
used herein the term "Landlord" means only the current owner or owners of the
fee title to the Building or the lessee under a ground lease of the Land (and
the owner of the Building). Upon each bona fide conveyance of the Landlord's
entire interest in the Project to a bona fide purchaser for value who
unconditionally assumes in writing for the benefit of Tenant each and all of
such liabilities, covenants and obligations, the conveying party shall be
relieved of all liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations
contained in this Lease first arising out of any act, occurrence or omission
occurring under this Lease after the date of such conveyance. Landlord may
sell, assign, convey, encumber or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its
interests in this Lease, the Premises, the Building, the Project or the Land.
31.11 Name. Tenant shall not use the name of the Building or of the
----
development in which the Building is situated, if any, for any purpose other

unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

to effect such other tenancies in the Project and Building as Landlord may, in
the exercise of its sole business judgment, determine to best promote the

by this reference.
31.20 Submission Of Lease. The submission of this Lease to Tenant or its

broker, agent or attorney for review or signature does not constitute an offer
to Tenant to lease the Premises or grant an option to lease the Premises. This

Rules And Regulations
1. The Common Area (which term shall include, for purposes of this Exhibit, all
freight elevators, common elevators and freight vestibules) sidewalks,
halls, passages, exits, entrances, shopping malls, elevators, escalators and
stairways of the Building shall not be obstructed by any of the tenants or
used by them for any purpose other than for ingress to and egress from their
respective premises. The Common Area halls, passages, exits, entrances,
shopping malls, elevators, escalators and stairways are not for the general
public and Landlord shall in all cases retain the right to control and
prevent access thereto of all persons whose presence in the reasonable
judgment of Landlord would be prejudicial to the safety, character,
reputation and interests of the Building and its tenants, provided that
nothing herein contained shall be construed to prevent such access to
persons with whom any tenant normally deals in the ordinary course of its
business, unless such persons are engaged in illegal activities. Subject to
Section 30.11 of the Lease, no tenant and no agent, employee, contractor,
invitee or licensee of any tenant shall go upon the roof of the Building.
Landlord shall have the right at any time, without the same constituting an
actual or constructive eviction and without incurring any liability to any
tenant therefor, to change the arrangement or location of entrances or
passageways, doors or doorways, corridors, elevators, stairs, toilets and
other common areas of the Building other than on the full floors of the
Building leased to the Tenant.
2. No sign, placard, picture, name, advertisement or notice visible from the
exterior of any tenant's premises shall be inscribed, painted, affixed or
otherwise displayed by any tenant on any part of the Building without the
prior written consent of Landlord. Landlord shall adopt and furnish to
tenants general guidelines relating to signs inside the Building and visible
from the exterior of the Premises. Tenants shall conform to such guidelines.

Premises shall be printed, painted, affixed or inscribed at the expense of
any such tenant by a person approved by Landlord. Material visible from
outside the Building shall not be permitted.

to the general public or for lodging. Except as permitted in the Lease, no

by employees of any such tenant in a manner customary for an employee lounge
or lunchroom, and for catering to serve food in connection with meetings or
receptions shall be permitted, provided that such use is in accordance with
all applicable federal, state and municipal laws, codes, ordinances, rules
and regulations, except with the prior written consent of Landlord.
4. No tenant shall employ any person or persons other than the janitor of
Landlord for the purpose of cleaning its premises unless otherwise agreed to
by Landlord in writing. Except
E-1
with the written consent of Landlord, no person or persons other than those
approved by Landlord shall be permitted to enter the Building for the
purpose of cleaning the same. No tenant shall cause any unnecessary labor by
reason of such tenant's carelessness or indifference in the preservation of
good order and cleanliness. Landlord shall not be responsible to any tenant
for any loss of property on the premises, however occurring, or for any
damage done to the effects of any tenant by the janitor or any other
employee or any other person. Provided that such standard is applied on a
nondiscriminatory basis with respect to all other tenants in the Project,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord the cost of removal of any of tenant's refuse
and rubbish, to the extent that the same substantially exceeds the refuse
and rubbish usually attendant upon the use of tenant's premises as offices.
5. Landlord shall furnish each tenant without charge with two (2) keys to each
door lock provided in the premises by Landlord. Landlord may make a
reasonable charge for any additional keys. No tenant shall alter any lock or

without Landlord's consent. Each tenant, upon the termination of its lease,
shall deliver to Landlord all keys to doors in the Building.
6. Landlord shall reasonably designate appropriate entrances and a freight
elevator for deliveries or other movement to or from any tenants' premises
of equipment, materials, supplies, furniture or other property, and tenants

freight elevator shall be available for use by all tenants in the Building
subject to such reasonable scheduling as Landlord in its reasonable
discretion shall deem appropriate. All persons employed and means or methods
used to move equipment, materials, supplies, furniture or other property in
or out of the Building must be approved by Landlord prior to any such
movement. Landlord shall have the right to reasonably prescribe the maximum
weight, size and position of all equipment, materials, furniture or other
property brought into the Building. Heavy objects shall, if considered
necessary by Landlord, stand on a platform of such thickness as is necessary
properly to distribute the weight. Except as provided in the Lease, Landlord
shall not be responsible for loss of or damage to any such property from any
cause, and all damage done to the Building by moving or maintaining such
property shall be repaired at the expense of tenants.

permitted under the Lease, no tenant shall use any method of heating or air
conditioning other than that supplied by Landlord. No tenant shall use or
keep or permit to be used or kept any foul or noxious gas or substance in
the premises, or permit or suffer their premises to be occupied or used in a
manner offensive or objectionable to Landlord or other occupants of the
Building by reason of noise, odors or vibrations, or interfere in any way
with other tenants or those having business in the Building, nor shall any
animals or birds be brought or kept in any tenants' premises or the
Building.

coverings consistent with the then prevailing practices of First Class
Buildings). Tenant agrees not to connect any apparatus device, conduit or
pipe to the Building chilled and hot water conditioning supply lines. Tenant

otherwise in any manner affect said installations or facilities.

Section 11.1.3 of the Lease, Landlord may install a water meter and thereby
measure Tenant's water consumption for all purposes. Tenant shall pay
Landlord for the cost set forth in Section 11.1.3 of the Lease and
throughout the duration of Tenant's occupancy, Tenant shall keep said meter
installation equipment in good working order and repair at Tenant's own cost
and expense, in default of which Landlord may cause such meter and equipment
to be replaced or repaired and collect the cost thereof from Tenant. Tenant
agrees to pay for water consumed, as shown on said meter, as and when bills
are rendered, and on default in making such payment, Landlord may pay such
charges and collect the same from Tenant. Any such costs or expenses
incurred, or payments made by Landlord for any of the reasons or purposes
hereinabove stated shall be deemed to be additional rent, payable by Tenant,
and collectible by Landlord as such.
11. Subject to Tenant's rights under the Lease, Landlord reserves the right to
stop service of the elevator, plumbing, ventilating, air conditioning and
electric systems, when necessary, by reason of accident or emergency or for
repairs, alterations or improvements, in the judgment of Landlord necessary
to be made, until said repairs, alterations or improvements shall have been
completed, and shall further have no responsibility or liability for failure
to support elevator facilities, plumbing, ventilating, air conditioning or
electric service, when prevented from doing so by strike or accident or by
any cause beyond Landlord's reasonable control or by laws, rules, orders,
ordinances, directions, regulations or requirements of any federal, state,
county or municipal authority or failure of gas, oil or other suitable fuel
supplied or inability by exercise of reasonable diligence to obtain gas, oil
or other suitable fuel. Except as provided in the Lease, it is expressly
understood and agreed that any covenants on Landlord's part to furnish any
service pursuant to any of the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions or
agreements of Tenant's lease or to perform any act or thing for the benefit
of Tenant, subject to Tenant's rights under the Lease, shall not be deemed
breached if Landlord

is unable to furnish or perform the same by virtue of a strike or labor
trouble or any other cause whatsoever beyond Landlord's control.
12. Landlord reserves the right to on a consistent and nondiscriminating basis
exclude from the Building between the hours of [6:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.]

holidays all persons who do not present identification acceptable to
Landlord. Each tenant shall provide Landlord with a list of all persons
authorized by such tenant to enter its premises and shall be liable to
Landlord for all acts of such persons. Landlord shall in no case be liable
for damages for any error with regard to the admission to or exclusion from
the Building of any person. In the case of invasion, mob, riot, public

and under such reasonable regulations as may be established by Landlord.
16. Each tenant shall ensure that the doors of its premises are closed and
locked and that all water faucets, water apparatus and utilities are shut
off before such tenant or such tenant's employees leave the premises so as
to prevent waste or damage and for any default or carelessness in this
regard, such tenant shall compensate for all injuries sustained by other
tenants or occupants of the Building or Landlord. On multiple-tenancy
floors, all tenants shall keep the doors to the Building corridors closed at
all times except for ingress and egress.

more of these Rules and Regulations for the benefit of any particular tenant
or tenants, but no such waiver by Landlord shall be construed as a waiver of
such Rules and Regulations in favor of any
E-5
other tenant or tenants, nor prevent Landlord from thereafter enforcing any
such Rules and Regulations against any or all of the tenants of the
Building.
25. These Rules and Regulations are in addition to, and shall not be construed
