repair and maintenance thereof, shall be equitably allocated by Lessor to all
buildings in the Industrial Center.
(c) The inclusion of the improvements, facilities and services

the same or some of them.
(d) Lessee's Share of Common Area Operating Expenses shall be
payable by Lessee within ten (10) days after a reasonably detailed statement of
actual expenses is presented to Lessee by Lessor. At Lessor's option, however,

Common Area Operating Expenses and the same shall be
7
payable monthly or quarterly, as Lessor shall designate, during each 12-month
period of the Lease term, on the same day as the Base Rent is due hereunder.
Lessor shall deliver to Lessee within sixty (60) days after the expiration of

Expenses next becoming due. If Lessee's payments under this Paragraph 4.2(d)

thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all or any portion of said Security Deposit,

with Lessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount
required by this Lease. Any time the Base Rent increases during the term of this
Lease, Lessee shall, upon written request from Lessor, deposit additional monies

the Security Deposit shall at all times bear the same proportion to the then
current Base Rent as the initial Security Deposit bears to the initial Base Rent

of the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Lessor shall, at the
expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof and after Lessee has

Deposit not used or applied by Lessor. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in
writing by Lessor, no part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be

prepayment for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease.

its consent to any written request by Lessee, Lessee's assignees or subtenants,
and by prospective assignees and subtenants of Lessee, its assignees and
subtenants, for a modification of said Permitted Use, so long as the same will
not impair the structural integrity of the improvements on the Premises or in
the Building or the mechanical or electrical systems therein, does not conflict
with uses by other lessees, is not significantly more burdensome to the Premises
or the Building and the improvements thereon, and is otherwise permissible
pursuant to this Paragraph 6. If Lessor elects to withhold such consent, Lessor
shall within five (5) business days after such request give a written
notification of same, which notice shall include an explanation of Lessor's
reasonable objections to the change in use.

Premises, is either: (i) potentially injurious to the public health, safety or
welfare, the environment, or the Premises; (ii) regulated or monitored by any
governmental authority, or (iii) a basis for potential liability of Lessor to
any governmental agency or third party under any applicable statue or common law
theory. Hazardous Substance shall include, but not be limited to, hydrocarbons,

Paragraph 6.3). "Reportable Use" shall mean (i) the installation or use of any
above or below ground storage tank, (ii) the generation, possession, storage,

in, on or about the Premises of a Hazardous Substance with respect to which any
Applicable Laws require that a notice be given to persons entering or occupying
the Premises or neighboring properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee
may, without Lessor's prior consent, but upon notice to Lessor and in compliance
with all Applicable Requirements, use any ordinary and customary materials
reasonably required to be used by Lessee in the normal course of the Permitted
Use, so long as such use is not a Reportable Use and does not expose the
Premises or neighboring properties to any meaningful risk of contamination or
damage or expose Lessor to any liability therefor. In addition, Lessor may (but
without any obligation to do so) condition its consent to any Reportable Use of
any Hazardous Substance by Lessee upon Lessee's giving Lessor such additional
assurances as Lessor, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to protect
itself, the Public, the Premises, and the environment against damage,
contamination or injury and/or liability therefor, including but not limited to
the installation (and, at Lessor's option, removal on or before Lease expiration
or earlier termination) of reasonably necessary protective modifications to the
Premises (such as concrete encasements) and/or the deposit of an additional
Security Deposit under paragraph 5 hereof.
9
(b) DUTY TO INFORM LESSOR. If Lessee knows, or has reasonable
cause to believe, that a Hazardous Substance has come to be located in, on,
under or about the Premises or the Building, other than as previously consented
to by Lessor, Lessee shall immediately give Lessor written notice thereof,
together with a copy of any statement, report, notice, registration,
application, permit, business plan, license, claim, action, or proceeding given
to, or received from, any governmental authority or private party concerning the
presence, spill, release, discharge of, or exposure to, such Hazardous Substance
including but not limited to such documents as may be involved in any Reportable
Use involving the Premises. Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous
Substance to be spilled or exposed in, on, under or about the Premises
(including, without limitation, through the plumbing or sanitary sewer system).
(c) INDEMNIFICATION. Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and
hold Lessor, its agents, employees, lenders and ground lessor, if any, and the
Premises, harmless from and against any and all damages, liabilities, judgments,
costs, claims, liens, expenses, penalties, loss of permits and attorneys' and
consultants' fees arising out of or involving any Hazardous Substance brought
onto the Premises by or for Lessee or by anyone under Lessee's control. Lessee's
obligations under this Paragraph 6.2(c) shall include, but not be limited to,
the effects of any contamination or injury to person, property or the
environment created or suffered by Lessee, and the cost of investigation
(including consultants' and attorneys' fees and testing), removal, remediation,
restoration and/or abatement thereof, or of any contamination therein involved,
and shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. No
termination, cancellation or release agreement entered into by Lessor and Lessee
shall release Lessee from its obligations under this Lease with respect to
Hazardous Substances, unless specifically so agreed by Lessor in writing at the
time of such agreement.
6.3. LESSEE'S COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS. Lessee shall, at Lessee's
sole cost and expense, fully, diligently and in a timely manner, comply with all
"Applicable Requirements," which term is used in this Lease to mean all laws,
rules, regulations, ordinances, directives, covenants, easements and
restrictions of record, permits, the requirements of any applicable fire
insurance underwriter or rating bureau, and the recommendations of Lessor's
engineers and/or consultants, relating in any manner to the Premises (including
but not limited to matters pertaining to (i) industrial hygiene, (ii)
environmental conditions on, in, under or about the Premises, including soil and
groundwater conditions, and (iii) the use, generation, manufacture, production,
installation, maintenance, removal, transportation, storage, spill, or release
of any Hazardous Substance), now in effect or which may hereafter come into
effect. Lessee shall, within five (5) days after receipt of Lessor's written
request, provide Lessor with copies of all documents and information, including
but not limited to permits, registrations, manifests, applications, reports and
certificates, evidencing Lessee's compliance with any Applicable Requirements
specified by Lessor, and shall immediately upon receipt, notify Lessor in
writing (with copies of any documents involved) of any threatened or actual
claim, notice, citation, warning, complaint or report pertaining to or involving
failure by Lessee or the Premises to comply with any Applicable Requirements.

employees, contractors and designated representatives, and the holders of any
mortgages, deeds of trust or
10
ground leases on the Premises ("Lenders") shall have the right to enter the
Premises at any time in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable
times, for the purpose of inspecting the condition of the Premises and for
verifying compliance by Lessee with this Lease and all Applicable Requirements
(as defined in Paragraph 6.3), and Lessor shall be entitled to employ experts
and/or consultants in connection therewith to advise Lessor with respect to
Lessee's activities, including but not limited to Lessee's installation,
operation, use, monitoring, maintenance, or removal of any Hazardous Substance
on or from the Premises. The costs and expenses of any such inspections shall be
paid by the party requesting same, unless a Default or Breach of this Lease by
Lessee or a violation of Applicable Requirements or a contamination, caused or
materially contributed to by Lessee, is found to exist or to be imminent, or
unless the inspection is requested or ordered by a governmental authority as the
result of any such existing or imminent violation or contamination. In such
case, Lessee shall upon request reimburse Lessor or Lessor's Lender, as the case
may be, for the costs and expenses of such inspections.

such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning, ventilating, electrical, lighting
facilities, boilers, fired or unfired pressure vessels, fire hose connections if
within the Premises, fixtures, interior walls, interior surfaces of exterior
walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, plate glass, and skylights, but
excluding any items which are the responsibility of Lessor pursuant to Paragraph
7.2 below. Lessee, in keeping the Premises in good order, condition and repair,
shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices. Lessee's obligations
shall include restorations, replacements or renewals when necessary to keep the
Premises and all improvements thereon or a part thereof in good order, condition
and state of repair.
(b) Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, procure and
maintain a contract, with copies to Lessor, in customary form and substance for
and with a contractor specializing and experienced in the inspection,
maintenance and service of the heating, air conditioning and ventilation system
for the Premises. However, Lessor reserves the right, upon notice to Lessee, to
procure and maintain the contract for the heating, air conditioning and
ventilating systems, and if Lessor so elects, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor,
upon demand, for the cost thereof.
(c) If Lessee fails to perform Lessee's obligations under
this Paragraph 7.1, Lessor may enter upon the Premises after ten (10) days'
prior written notice to Lessee (except in
11
the case of an emergency, in which case no notice shall be required), perform
such obligations on Lessee's behalf, and put the Premises in good order,
condition and repair, in accordance with Paragraph 13.2 below.
7.2. LESSOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2.2
(Condition), 2.3 (Compliance with Covenants, Restrictions and Building Code),
4.2 (Common Area Operating Expenses), 6 (Use), 7.1 (Lessee's Obligations), 9
(Damage or Destruction) and 14 (Condemnation), Lessor, subject to reimbursement
pursuant to Paragraph 4.2 shall keep in good order, condition and repair the
foundations, exterior walls, structural condition of interior bearings walls,
exterior roof, fire sprinkler and/or standpipe and hose (if located in the
Common Areas) or other automatic fire extinguishing system including fire alarm
and/or smoke detection systems and equipment, fire hydrants, parking lots,
walkways, parkways, driveways, landscaping, fences, signs and utility systems
serving the Common Areas and all parts thereof, as well as providing the
services for which there is a Common Area Operating Expense pursuant to
Paragraph 4.2. Lessor shall not be obligated to paint the exterior or interior
surfaces of exterior walls nor shall Lessor be obligated to maintain, repair or
replace windows, doors or plate glass of the Premises. Lessee expressly waives
the benefit of any statute now or hereafter in effect which would otherwise
afford Lessee the right to make repairs at Lessor's expense or to terminate this
Lease because of Lessor's failure to keep the Building, Industrial Center or
Common Areas in good order, condition and repair.
7.3. UTILITY INSTALLATIONS, TRADE FIXTURES, ALTERATIONS.
(a) DEFINITIONS; CONSENT REQUIRED. The term "Utility
Installations" is used in this Lease to refer to all air lines, power panels,
electrical distribution, security, fire protection systems, communications
systems, lighting fixtures, hearing, ventilating and air conditioning equipment,
plumbing, and fencing in, on or about the Premises. The term "Trade Fixtures"
shall mean Lessee's machinery and equipment which can be removed without doing
material damage to the Premises. The term "Alterations" shall mean any
modification of the improvements on the Premises which are provided by Lessor
under the terms of this Lease, other than Utility Installations or Trade
Fixtures. "Lessee-Owned Alterations and/or Utility Installations" are defined as
Alterations and/or Utility Installations made by Lessee that are not yet owned
by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 7.4(a). Lessee shall not make nor cause to be
made any Alterations or Utility Installations in, on, under or about the
Premises without Lessor's prior written consent. Lessee may, however, make non-
structural Utility Installations to the Interior of the Premises (excluding the
roof) without Lessor's consent but upon notice to Lessor, so long as they are
not visible from the outside of the Premises, do not involve puncturing,
relocating or removing the roof or any existing walls, or changing or
interfering with the fire sprinkler or fire detection systems and the cumulative
cost thereof during the term of this Lease as extended does not exceed
$2,500.00.
(b) CONSENT. Any Alterations or Utility Installations that
Lessee shall desire to make and which require the consent of the Lessor shall be
presented to Lessor in written form with detailed plans. All consents given by
Lessor, whether by virtue of Paragraph 7.3(a) or by subsequent specific consent,
shall be deemed conditioned upon: (i) Lessee's acquiring all
12
applicable permits required by governmental authorities; (ii) the furnishing of
copies of such permits together with a copy of the plans and specifications for
the Alteration or Utility Installation to Lessor prior to commencement of the
work thereon; and (iii) the compliance by Lessee with all conditions of said
permits in a prompt and expeditious manner. Any Alterations or Utility
Installations by Lessee during the term of this Lease shall be done in a good
and workmanlike manner, with good and sufficient materials, and be in compliance
with all Applicable Requirements. Lessee shall promptly upon completion thereof
furnish Lessor with as-built plans and specifications therefor. Lessor may, (but
without obligation to do so) condition its consent to any requested Alternation
or Utility Installation that costs $2,500.00 or more upon Lessee's providing
Lessor with a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to one and one-half
times the estimated cost of such Alteration or Utility Installation.
(c) LIEN PROTECTION. Lessee shall pay when due all claims
for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for
Lessee at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any
mechanic's or materialmen's lien against the Premises or any interest therein.
Lessee shall give Lessor not less than ten (10) days' notice prior to the
commencement of any work in, on, or about the Premises, and Lessor shall have
the right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Premises as
provided by law. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any
such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense, defend and
protect itself, Lessor and the Premises against the same and shall pay and
satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the
enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises. If Lessor shall require,
Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount
equal to one and one-half times the amount of such contested lien claim or
demand, indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same, as required by law
for the holding of the Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim. In
addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's attorneys' fees and costs in
participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is to its best interest
to do so.
7.4. OWNERSHIP, REMOVAL, SURRENDER, AND RESTORATION.
(a) OWNERSHIP. Subject to Lessor's right to require their
removal and to cause Lessee to become the owner thereof as hereinafter provided
in this Paragraph 7.4, all Alterations and Utility Installations made to the
Premises by Lessee shall be the property of and owned by Lessee, but considered
a part of the Premises. Lessor may, at any time and at its option, elect in
writing to Lessee to be the owner of all or any specified part of the
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Unless otherwise instructed
per Subparagraph 7.4(b) hereof, all Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations shall, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease,
become the property of Lessor and remain upon the Premises and be surrendered
with the Premises by Lessee.
(b) REMOVAL. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Lessor may
require that any or all Lessee-Owned Alterations or Utility Installations be
removed by the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, notwithstanding
that their installation may have been consented to by Lessor. Lessor may require
the removal at any time of all or any part of any Alterations or Utility
Installations made without the required consent of Lessor.
13
(c) SURRENDER/RESTORATION. Lessee shall surrender the Premises
by the end of the last day of the Lease term or any earlier termination date,
clean and free of debris and in good operating order, condition and state of
repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Ordinary wear and tear shall not
include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good
maintenance practice or by Lessee performing all of its obligations under this
Lease. Except as otherwise agreed or specified herein, the Premises, as
surrendered, shall include the Alterations and Utility Installations. The
obligation of Lessee shall include the repair of any damage occasioned by the
installation, maintenance or removal of Lessee's Trade Fixtures, furnishings,
equipment, and Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, as well as
the removal of any storage tank installed by or for Lessee, and the removal,
replacement, or remediation of any soil, material or ground water contaminated
by Lessee, all as may then be required by Applicable Requirements and/or good
practice. Lessee's Trade Fixtures shall remain the property of Lessee and shall
be removed by Lessee subject to its obligation to repair and restore the
Premises per this Lease.
8. INSURANCE; INDEMNITY.
8.1. PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS. The cost of the premiums for the insurance
policies maintained by Lessor under this Paragraph 8 shall be a Common Area
Operating Expense pursuant to Paragraph 4.2 hereof. Premiums for policy periods
commencing prior to, or extending beyond, the term of this Lease shall be
pro-rated to coincide with the corresponding Commencement Date or Expiration
Date.
8.2. LIABILITY INSURANCE.
(a) CARRIED BY LESSEE. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a Commercial General Liability policy of insurance
protecting Lessee, Lessor and any Lender(s) whose names have been provided to
Lessee in writing (as additional insurers) against claims for bodily injury,
personal injury and property damage based upon, involving or arising out of the
ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas
appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence basis providing
single limit coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence with
an "Additional Insured-Managers or Lessors of Premises" endorsement and contain
the "Amendment of the Pollution Exclusion" endorsement for damage caused by
heat, smoke or fumes from a hostile fire. The policy shall not contain any
intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations, but shall
include coverage for liability assumed under this Lease as an "insured contract"
for the performance of Lessee's indemnity obligations under this Lease. The
limits of said insurance required by this Lease or as carried by Lessee shall
not, however, limit the liability of Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligation
hereunder. All insurance to be carried by Lessee shall be primary to and not
contributory with any similar insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall
be considered excess insurance only.
(b) CARRIED BY LESSOR. Lessor shall also maintain liability
insurance described in Paragraph 8.2(a) above. In addition to and not in lieu
of, the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee, Lessee shall not be named
as an additional insured therein.
14
8.3. PROPERTY INSURANCE-BUILDING, IMPROVEMENTS AND RENTAL VALUE.
(a) BUILDING AND IMPROVEMENTS. Lessor shall obtain and keep in
force during the term of this Lease a policy or policies in the name of Lessor,
with loss payable to Lessor and to any Lender(s), insuring against loss or
damage to the Premises. Such insurance shall be for full replacement cost, as
the same shall exist from time to time, or the amount required by any Lender(s),
but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available insurable
value thereof if, by reason of the unique nature or age of the improvements
involved, such latter amount is less than full replacement cost. Lessee-Owned
Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures and Lessee's personal
property shall be insured by Lessee pursuant to Paragraph 8.4. If the coverage
is available and commercially appropriate, Lessor's policy or policies shall
insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage (except the perils of
flood and/or earthquake unless required by a Lender), including coverage for any
additional costs resulting from debris removal and reasonable amounts of
coverage for the enforcement of any ordinance or law regulating the
reconstruction or replacement of any undamaged sections of the Building required
to be demolished or removed by reason of the enforcement of any building,
zoning, safety or land use laws as the result of a covered loss, but not
including plate glass insurance. Said policy or policies shall also contain an
agreed valuation provision in lieu of any co-insurance clause, waiver of
subrogation, and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual
property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted
U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the
city nearest to where the Premises are located.
(b) RENTAL VALUE. Lessor shall also obtain and keep in force
during the term of this Lease a policy or policies in the name of Lessor, with
loss payable to Lessor and Lender(s), insuring the loss of the full rental and
other charges payable by all lessees of the Building to Lessor for one year
(including all Real Property Taxes, insurance costs, all Common Area Operating
Expenses and any scheduled rental increases). Said insurance may provide that in
the event the Lease is terminated by reason of an insured loss, the period of
indemnity for such coverage shall be extended beyond the date of the completion
of repairs or replacement of the Premises, to provide for one full year's loss
of rental revenues from the date of any such loss. Said insurance shall contain
an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any co-insurance clause, and the amount
of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the projected rental income,
Real Property Taxes, insurance premium costs and other expenses, if any,
otherwise payable, for the next 12-month period. Common Area Operating Expenses
shall include any deductible amount in the event of such loss.
(c) ADJACENT PREMISES. Lessee shall pay for an increase in the
premiums for the property insurance of the Building and for the Common Areas or
other buildings in the Industrial Center if said increase is caused by Lessee's
acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.
(d) LESSEE'S IMPROVEMENTS. Since Lessor is the insuring Party,
Lessor shall not be required to insure Lessee-Owned Alternations and Utility
Installations unless the item in question has become the property of Lessor
under the terms of this Lease.
15
8.4. LESSEE'S PROPERTY INSURANCE. Subject to the requirements of
Paragraph 8.5, Lessee at its cost shall either by separate policy or, at
Lessor's option, by endorsement to a policy already carried, maintain insurance
coverage on all of Lessee's personal property, Trade Fixtures and Lessee-Owned
Alterations and Utility Installations in, on, or about the Premises similar in
coverage to that carried by Lessor as the Insuring Party under Paragraph 8.3(a).
Such insurance shall be full replacement cost coverage with a deductible not to
exceed $1,000 per occurrence. The proceeds from any such insurance shall be used
by Lessee for the replacement of personal property and the restoration of Trade
Fixtures and Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Upon request
from Lessor, Lessee shall provide Lessor with written evidence that such
insurance is in force.
8.5. INSURANCE POLICIES. Insurance required hereunder shall be in
companies duly licensed to transact business in the state where the Premises are
located, and maintaining during the policy term a "General Policyholders Rating"
of at least B+, V, or such other rating as may be required by a Lender, as set
forth in the most current issue of "Best's Insurance Guide." Lessee shall not do
or permit to be done anything which shall invalidate the insurance policies
referred to in this Xxxxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxx shall cause to be delivered to Lessor,
within seven (7) days after the earlier of the Early Possession Date or the
Commencement Date, certified copies of, or certificates evidencing the existence
and amounts of, the insurance required under Paragraph 8.2(a) and 8.4. No such
policy shall be cancelable or subject to modification except after thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall at least thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration of such policy furnish Lessor with evidence of renewals
or "insurance binders" evidencing renewal thereof, or Lessor may order such
insurance and charge the cost thereof to Lessee, which amount shall be payable
by Lessee to Lessor upon demand.
8.6. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Without affecting any other rights or
remedies, Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and waive
their entire right to recover damages (whether in contract or in tort) against
the other, for loss or damage to their property arising out of or incident to
the perils required to be insured against under Paragraph 8. The effect of such
releases and waivers of the right to recover damages shall not be limited by the
amount of insurance carried or required, or by any deductibles applicable
thereto. Lesser and Lessee agree to have their respective insurance companies
issuing property damage insurance waive any right to subrogation that such
companies may have against Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, so long as the
insurance is not invalidated thereby.
8.7. INDEMNITY. Except for Lessor's negligence and/or breach of express
warranties, Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the
Premises, Lessor and its agents, Lessor's master or ground lessor, partners and
Lenders, from and against any and all claims, loss of rents and/or damages,
costs, liens, judgments, penalties, loss of permits, attorneys' and consultants'
fees, expenses and/or liabilities arising out of, involving, or in connection
with, the occupancy of the Premises by Lessee, the conduct of Lessee's business,
any act, omission or neglect of Lessee, its agents, contractors, employees or
invitees, and out of any Default or Breach by Lessee in the performance in a
timely manner of any obligation on Lessee's part to be performed under this
Lease. The foregoing shall include, but not be limited to, the defense or
pursuit of any claim or any action or proceeding involved therein, and whether
or not (in the case
16
of claims made against Lessor) litigated and/or reduced to judgment. In case any
action or proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing
matters, Lessee upon notice from Lessor shall defend the same at Lessee's
expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate
with Lessee in such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in
order to be so indemnified.
8.8. EXEMPTION OF LESSOR FROM LIABILITY. Lessor shall not be liable for
injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other property of
Lessee, Lessee's employees, contractors, invitees, customers, or any other
person in or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by or
results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage,
leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire sprinkles, wires,
appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting fixtures, or from any other
cause, whether said injury or damage results from conditions arising upon the
Premises or upon other portions of the Building of which the Premises are a
part, from other sources or places, and regardless of whether the cause of such
damage or injury or the means of repairing the same is accessible or not. Lessor
shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other
lessee of Lessor nor from the failure by Lessor to enforce the provisions of any
other lease in the Industrial Center. Notwithstanding Lessor's negligence or
breach of this Lease, Lessor shall under no circumstances be liable for injury
to Lessee's business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom.
9. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.
9.1. DEFINITIONS.
(a) "PREMISES PARTIAL DAMAGE" shall mean damage or destruction
to the Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations,
the repair cost of which damage or destruction is less than fifty percent (50%)
of the then Replacement Cost (as defined in Paragraph 9.1(d)) of the Premises
(excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade
Fixtures) immediately prior to such damage of destruction.
(b) "PREMISES TOTAL DESTRUCTION" shall mean damage or
destruction to the Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations, the repair cost of which damage or destruction is fifty percent
(50%) or more of the then Replacement Cost of the Premises (excluding
Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures)
immediately prior to such damage or destruction. In addition, damage or
destruction to the Building, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations and Trade Fixtures of any lessees of the Building, the cost of
which damage or destruction is fifty percent (50%) or more of the then
Replacement Cost (excluding Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations
and Trade Fixtures of any lessees of the Building) of the Building shall, at the
option of Lessor, be deemed to be Premises Total Destruction.
(c) "INSURED LOSS" shall mean damage or destruction to the
Premises, other than Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and
Trade Fixtures, which was caused by an event required to be covered by the
insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a) irrespective of any deductible amounts
or coverage limits involved.
17
(d) "REPLACEMENT COST" shall mean the cost to repair or
rebuild the improvements owned by Lessor at the time of the occurrence to their
condition existing immediately prior thereto, including demolition, debris
removal and upgrading required by the operation of applicable building codes,
ordinances or laws, and without deduction for depreciation.
(e) "HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE CONDITION" shall mean the occurrence
or discovery of a condition involving the presence of, or a contamination by, a
Hazardous Substance as defined in Paragraph 6.2(a), in or, on, or under the
Premises.
9.2. PREMISES PARTIAL DAMAGE - INSURED LOSS. If Premises Partial Damage
that is an insured loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense, repair
such damage (but not Lessee's Trade Fixtures or Lessee-Owned Alterations and
Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possibly and this Lease shall
continue in full force and effect. In the event, however, that there is a
shortage of insurance proceeds and such shortage is due to the fact that, by
reason of the unique nature of the improvements in the Premises, full
replacement cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and
available, Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in insurance
proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises unless Lessee
provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate assurance thereof,
within said ten (10) days following receipt of written notice of such shortage
and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate assurance
thereof within said ten (10) day period, Lessor shall complete them as soon as
reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. If
Lessor does not receive such funds or assurance within said period, Lessor may
nevertheless elect by written notice to Lessee within ten (10) days thereafter
to make such restoration and repair as is commercially reasonable with Lessor
paying any shortage in proceeds, in which case this Lease shall remain in full
force and effect. If Lessor does not receive such funds or assurance within such
ten (10) day period, and if Lessor does not so elect to restore and repair, then
this Lease shall terminate sixty (60) days following the occurrence of the
damage or destruction. Unless otherwise agreed, Lessee shall in no event have
any right to reimbursement from Lessor for any funds contributed by Lessee to
repair any such damage or destruction. Premises Partial Damage due to flood or
earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3 rather than Paragraph 9.2,
notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net proceeds
of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if made by either
Party.
9.3. PARTIAL DAMAGE - UNINSURED LOSS. If Premises Partial Damage that
is not an insured loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of
Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee's expense and
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect), Lessor may at Lessor's
option, either (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's
expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or
(ii) give written notice to Lessee within thirty (30) days after receipt by
Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage of Lessor's desire to
terminate this Lease as of the date sixty (60) days following the date of such
notice. In the event Lessor elects to give such notice of Lessor's intention to
terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within ten (10) days after the
receipt of such notice to give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment
to pay for the repair of such damage totally at Lessee's expense and without
reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall
18
provide Lessor with the required funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within
thirty (30) days following such commitment from Lessee. In such event this Lease
shall continue to full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such
repairs as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available.
If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the funds or assurance thereof
within the times specified above, this Lease shall terminate as of the date
specified in Lessor's notice of termination.
9.4. TOTAL DESTRUCTION. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if
Premises Total Destruction occurs (including any destruction required by any
authorized public authority), this Lease shall terminate sixty (60) days
following the date of such Premises Total Destruction, whether or not the damage
or destruction is an Insured Loss or was caused by a negligent or willful act of
Lessee. In the event, however, that the damage or destruction was caused by
Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor's damages from Lessee
except as released and waived in Paragraph 9.7
9.5. DAMAGE NEAR END OF TERM. If at any time during the last six (6)
months of the term of this Lease is damage for which the cost to repair exceeds
one month's Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may, at Lessor's
option, terminate this Lease effective sixty (60) days following the date of
occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Lessee of Lessor's
election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence of such
damage. Provided, however, if Lessee at that time has an exercisable option to
extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then Lessee may preserve this
Lease by (a) exercising such option, and (b) providing Lessor with any shortage
in insurance proceeds (or adequate assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs
on or before the earlier of (i) the date which is ten (10) days after Lessee's
receipt of Lessor's written notice purporting to purporting to terminate this
Lease, or (ii) the day prior to the date upon which such option expires. If
Lessee duly exercises such option during such period and provides Lessor with
funds (or adequate assurance thereof) to cover any shortage in insurance
proceeds, Lessor shall, at Lessor's expense repair such damage as soon as
reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If
Lessee falls to exercise such option and provide such funds or assurance during
such period, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date set forth in the
first sentence of this Paragraph 9.5.
9.6. ABATEMENT OF RENT; LESSEE'S REMEDIES.
(a) In the event of (i) Premises Partial Damage or (ii)
Hazardous Substance Condition for which Lessee is not legally responsible, the
Base Rent, Common Area Operating Expenses and other charges, if any, payable by
Lessee hereunder for the period during which such damage or condition, its
repair, remediation or restoration continue, shall be abated in proportion to
the degree to which Lessee's use of the Premises is impaired, but not in excess
of proceeds from insurance required to be carried under Paragraph 8.3(b). Except
for abatement of Base Rent, Common Area Operating Expenses and other charges, if
any, as aforesaid, all other obligations of Lessee hereunder shall be performed
by Lessee, and Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for any damage suffered
by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair, remediation or restoration.
19
(b) If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the
Premises under the provisions of this Paragraph 9 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, Lessee may, at any time
prior the commencement of such repair or restoration, give written notice to
Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual notice of Lessee's election
to terminate the Lease on a date not less than sixty (60) days following the
giving of such notice. If Lessee gives such notice to Lessor and such Lenders
and such repair or restoration is not commenced within thirty (30) days after
receipt of such notice, this Lease shall terminate as specified in said notice.
If Lessor or a Lender commences the repair or restoration of the Premises within
thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice, this Lease shall continue in
full force and effect. "Commence" as used in this Paragraph 9.6 shall mean
either the unconditional authorization of the preparation of the required plans,
or the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever occurs first.
9.7. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE CONDITIONS. If a Hazardous Substance occurs,
unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee shall make
the investigation and remediation thereof required by Applicable Requirements
and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect but subject to Lessor's
rights under Paragraph 8.2(c) and Paragraph 13). Lessor may at Lessor's option
either (i) investigate and remediate such Hazardous Substance Condition, if
required, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor's expense, in which event
this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) if the estimated
cost to investigate and remediate such condition exceeds twelve (12) times the
then monthly Base Rent or $100,000 whichever is greater, give written notice to
Lessee within thirty (30) days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the
occurrence of such Hazardous Substance Condition of Lessor's desire to terminate
this Lease as of the date sixty (60) days following the date of such notice. In
the event Lessor elects to give such notice of Lessor's intention to terminate
this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within ten (10) days after the receipt
of such notice to give written notice to Lessor of Lessee's commitment to pay
for the excess costs for the investigation and remediation of such Hazardous
Substance Condition to the extent required by Applicable Requirement, over (b)
an amount equal to twelve (12) times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000,
whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with the funds required of
Lessee or satisfactory assurance thereof within thirty (30) days following said
commitment by Lessee. In such event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such investigation and remediation as
soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee
does not give such notice and provide the required funds or assurance thereof
within the time period specified above, this Lease shall terminate as of the
date specified in Lessor's notice of termination.
9.8. TERMINATION - ADVANCE PAYMENTS. Upon termination of this Lease
pursuant to this Paragraph 9, Lessor shall return to Lessee any advance payment
made by Lessee to Lessor and so much of Lessee's Security Deposit as has not
been, or is not then required to be, used by Lessor under the terms of this
Lease.
9.9. WAIVER OF STATUTES. Lessor and Lessee agree that the terms of this
Lease shall govern the effect of any damage to or destruction of the Premises
and the Building with respect
20
to the termination of this Lease and hereby waive the provisions of any present
or future statute to the extent it is inconsistent herewith.
10. REAL PROPERTY TAXES.
10.1. PAYMENT OF TAXES. Lessor shall pay the Real Property Taxes, as
defined in Paragraph 10.2, applicable to the Industrial Center, and except as
otherwise provided in provided in Paragraph 10.3, any such amounts shall be
included in the calculation of Common Area Operating Expenses in accordance with
the provisions of Paragraph 4.2
10.2. REAL PROPERTY TAX DEFINITION. As used herein, the term "Real
Property Taxes" shall include any form of real estate tax or assessment,
general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, and any license fee, commercial
rental tax, improvement bond or bonds, levy or tax (other than inheritance,
personal income or estate taxes) imposed upon the Industrial Center by any
authority having the direct or indirect power to tax, including any city, state
or federal government, or any school, agricultural, sanitary, fire, street,
drainage, or other improvement district thereof, levied against any legal or
equitable interest of Lessor in the Industrial Center or any portion thereof,
Lessor's right to rent or other income therefrom, and/or Lessor's business of
leasing the Premises. The term "REAL PROPERTY TAXES" shall also include any tax,
fee, levy, assessment or charge, or any increase therein, imposed by reason of
events occurring, or changes in Applicable Law taking effect, during the term of
this Lease, including but not limited to a change in the ownership of the
Industrial Center or in the Improvements thereon, the execution of this Lease,
or any modification, amendment or transfer thereof, and whether or not
contemplated by the Parties. In calculating Real Property Taxes for any calendar
year, the Real Property Taxes for any real estate tax year shall be included in
the calculation of Real Property Taxes for such calendar year based upon the
number of days which such calendar year and tax year have in common.
10.3. ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS. Common Area Operating Expenses shall not
include Real Property Taxes specified in the tax assessor's records and work
sheets as being caused by additional improvements placed upon the Industrial
Center by other lessees or Lessor for the exclusive enjoyment of such other
lessees. Notwithstanding Paragraph 10.1 hereof, Lessee shall, however, pay to
Lessor at the time Common Area Operating Expenses are payable under Paragraph
4.2, the entirety of any increase in Real Property Taxes if assessed solely by
reason of Alterations, Trade Fixtures or Utility Installations placed upon the
Premises by Lessee or at Lessee's request.
10.4. JOINT ASSESSMENT. If the Building is not separately assessed,
Real Property Taxes allocated to the Building shall be an equitable proportion
of the Real Property Taxes for all of the land and improvements included within
the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be determined by Lessor from the
respective valuations assigned in the assessor's work sheets or such other
information as may be reasonably available. Lessor's reasonable determination
thereof, in good faith, shall be conclusive.
10.5. LESSEE'S PROPERTY TAXES. Lessee shall pay prior to delinquency
all taxes assessed against and levied upon Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility
Installations, Trade
21
Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all personal property of Lessee contained
in the Premises or stored within the Industrial Center. When possible, Lessee
shall cause its Lessee-Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade
Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed
and billed separately from the real property of Lessor. If any of Lessee's said
property shall be assessed with Lessor's real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor
the taxes attributable to Lessee's property within ten (10) days after receipt
of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee's property.
11. UTILITIES.
Lessee shall pay directly for all utilities and services
supplied to the Premises, including but not limited to electricity, telephone,
security, gas and cleaning of the Premises, together with any taxes thereon. If
any such utilities or services are not separately metered to the Premises or
separately billed to the Premises, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a reasonable
proportion to be determined by Lessor of all such charges jointly metered or
billed with other premises in the Building, in the manner and within the time
periods set forth in Paragraph 4.2(d).
12. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
12.1. LESSOR'S CONSENT REQUIRED.
(a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law
assign, transfer, mortgage or otherwise transfer or encumber (collectively,
"assign") or sublease any part of Lessee's interests in this Lease or in the
Premises without Lessor's prior written consent given under the subject to the
terms of Paragraph 36.
(b) A change in the control of Lessee shall constitute an
assignment requiring Lessor's consent. The transfer, on a cumulative basis, of
twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the voting control of Lessee shall
constitute a change in control for this purpose.
(c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any
transaction, or series of transactions (by way of merger, sale, acquisition,
financing, refinancing, transfer, leveraged buy-out or otherwise), whether or
not a formal assignment or hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee's assets
occurs, which results or will result in a reduction of the Net Worth of Lessee,
as hereinafter defined, by an amount equal to or greater than twenty-five
percent (25%) of such Net Worth of Lessee as it was represented to Lessor at the
time of full execution and delivery of this Lease or at the time of the most
recent assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists immediately
prior to said transaction or transactions constituting such reduction, at
whichever time said Net Worth of Lessees was or is greater, shall be considered
an assignment of this Lease by Lessee to which Lessor may reasonably withhold
its consent. "Net Worth Of Lessee" for purposes of this Lease shall be the net
worth of Lessee (excluding any Guarantors) established under generally accepted
accounting principles consistently applied.
(d) An assignment or subletting of Lessee's interest in this
Lease without Lessor's specific prior written consent shall, at Lessor's option,
be a Default curable after notice per Paragraph 13.1, or a non-curable Breach
without the necessity of any police and grace period.
22
If Lessor elects to treat such unconsented to assignment or subletting as a non-
curable Breach, Lessor shall have the right to either: (i) terminate this Lease,
or (ii) upon thirty (30) days' written notice ("Lessor's Notice"), increase the
monthly Base Rent for the Premises to the greater of the then fair market rental
value of the Premises, as reasonably determined by Lessor, or one hundred ten
percent (110%) of the Base Rent then in effect. Pending determination of the new
fair market rental value, if disputed by Lessee, Lessee shall pay the amount set
forth in Lessor's Notice, with any overpayment credited against the next
installment(s) of Base Rent coming due, and any underpayment for the period
retroactively to the effective date of the adjustment being due and payable
immediately upon the determination thereof. Further, in the event of such Breach
and rental adjustment, (i) the purchase price of any option to purchase the
Premises hold by Lessee shall be subject to similar adjustment to the then fair
market value as reasonably determined by Lessor (without the Lease being
considered an encumbrance or any deduction for depreciation or obsolescence, and
considering the Premises at its highest and best use and in good condition) or
one hundred ten percent (110%) of the price previously in effect, (ii) any
index-oriented rental or price adjustment formulas contained in this Lease shall
be adjusted to require that the base index be determined with reference to the
index applicable to the time of such adjustment, and (iii) any fixed rental
adjustments scheduled during the remainder of the Lease term shall be increased
in the same ratio as the new rental bears to the Base Rent in effect immediately
prior to the adjustment specified in Lessor's Notice.
(e) Lessee's remedy for any breach of this Paragraph 12.1 by
Lessor shall be limited to compensatory damages and/or injunctive relief.
12.2. TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.
(a) Regardless of Lessor's consent, any assignment or
subletting shall not (i) be effective without the express written assumption by
such assignee or sublessee of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, (ii)
release Lessee of any obligations hereunder, nor (iii) alter the primary
liability of Lessee for the payment of Base Rent and other sums due Lessor
hereunder or for the performance of any other obligations to be performed by
Lessee under this Lease.
(b) Lessor may accept any rent or performance of Lessee's
obligations from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of
an assignment. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such assignment
nor the acceptance of any rent for performance shall constitute a waiver or
estoppel of Lessor's right to exercise its remedies for the Default or Breach by
Lessee of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease.
(c) The consent of Lessor to any assignment or subletting
shall not constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting by
Lessee or to any subsequent or successive assignment or subletting by the
assignee or sublessee. However, Lessor may consent to subsequent sublettings and
assignments of the sublease or any amendments or modifications thereto without
notifying Lessee or anyone else liable under this Lease or the sublease and
without obtaining their consent, and such action shall not relieve such persons
from liability under this Lease or the sublease.
23
(d) In the event of any Default or Breach of Lessee's
obligation under this Lease, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any
Guarantors or anyone else responsible for the performance of the Lessee's
obligations under this Lease, including any sublessee, without first exhausting
Lessor's remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to
Lessor, or any security held by Lessor.
(e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting
shall be in writing, accompanied by information relevant to Lessor's
determination as to the financial and operational responsibility and
appropriateness of the proposed assignee or sublessee, including but not limited
to the intended use and/or required modification of the Premises, if any,
together with a non-refundable deposit of $1,000 or ten percent (10%) of the
monthly Base Rent applicable to the portion of the Premises which is the subject
of the proposed assignment or sublease, whichever is greater, as reasonable
consideration for Lessor's considering and processing the request for consent.
Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or additional information and/or
documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lessor.
(f) Any assignee of, or sublessee under this Lease shall, be
reason of accepting such assignment or entering into such sublease, be deemed,
for the benefit of Lessor, to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with
each and every term, covenant, condition and obligation herein to be observed or
performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment or sublease, other than
such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions of an
assignment or sublease to which Lessor has specifically consented in writing.
(g) The occurrence of a transaction described Paragraph
12.2(c) shall give Lessor the right (but not the obligation) to require that the
Security Deposit be increased by an amount equal to six (6) times the then
monthly Base Rent, and Lessor may make the actual receipt by Lessor of the
Security Deposit increase a condition to Lessor's consent to such transaction.
(h) Lessor, as a condition to giving its consent to assignment
or subletting, may require that the amount and adjustment schedule of the rent
payable under this Lease be adjusted to what is then the market value and/or
adjustment schedule for property similar to the Premises as then constituted, as
obtained by Lessor.
12.3. ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SUBLETTING. The
following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or
any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under
this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:
(a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of
Lessee's interest in all rentals and income arising from any sublease of all or
a portion of the Premises heretofore or hereafter made by Lessee, and Lessor may
collect such rent and income and apply same toward Lessee's obligations under
this Lease; provided, however, that until a Breach (as defined in Paragraph
13.1) shall occur in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease,
Lessee may, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, receive, collect and
enjoy the rents accruing under such sublease. Lessor shall not, by reason of the
foregoing provision or any other
24
assignment of such sublease to Lessor, nor by reason of the collection of the
rents from a sublease, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of
Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee's obligations to such sublessee
under such Sublease. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such
sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor stating that a Breach
exists in the performance of Lessee's obligations under this Lease, to pay to
Lessor the rents and other charges due and to become due under the sublease.
Sublessee shall rely upon any such statement and request from Lessor and shall
pay such rents and other charges to Lessor without any obligation or right to
inquire as to whether such Breach exists and notwithstanding any notice from or
claim from Lessee to the contrary. Lessee shall have no right to claim against
such sublessee, or, until the Breach has been cured, against Lessor, for any
such rents and other charges so paid by said sublessee to Lessor.
(b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee in the performance of
its obligations under this Lease, Lessor, at its option and without any
obligation to do so, may require any sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which
event Lessor shall undertake the obligations of the sublessor under such
sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the expiration of such
sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or
security deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any other prior
defaults or breaches of such sublessor under such sublease.
(c) Any matter or thing requiring the consent of the sublessor
under a sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor herein.
(d) No sublessee under a sublease approved by Lessor shall
further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor's prior
written consent.
(e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any notice of Default or
Breach by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the Default
of Lessee within the grace period, if any, specified in such notice. The
sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against Lessee
for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee.
13. DEFAULT; BREACH; REMEDIES.
13.1. DEFAULT; BREACH. Lessor and Lessee agree that if an attorney is
consulted by Lessor in connection with a Lessee Default or Breach (as
hereinafter defined), $350.00 is a reasonable minimum sum per such occurrence
for legal services and costs in the preparation and service of a notice of
Default, and that Lessor may include the cost of such services and costs in said
notice as rent due and payable to cure said default. A "Default" by Lessee is
defined as a failure by Lessee to observe, comply with or perform any of the
terms, covenants, conditions or rules applicable to Lessee under this Lease. A
"Breach" by Lessee is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following
Defaults, and, where a grace period for cure after notice is specified herein,
the failure by Lessee to cure such Default prior to the expiration of the
applicable grace period, and shall entitle Lessor to pursue the remedies set
forth in Paragraphs 13.2 and/or 13.3:
25
(a) The vacating of the Premises without the intention to
reoccupy same, or the abandonment of the Premises.
(b) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the
failure by Lessee to make any payment of Base Rent, Lessee's Share of Common
Area Operating Expenses, or any other monetary payment required to be made by
Lessee hereunder as and when due, the failure by Lessee to provide Lessor with
reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond required under this Lease, or
the failure of Lessee to fulfill any obligation under this Lease which endangers
or threatens life or property, where such failure continues for a period of
three (3) days following written notice thereof by or on behalf of Lessor to
Lessee.
(c) Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Lease, the
failure by Lessee to provide Lessor with reasonable written evidence (in duly
executed original form, if applicable) of (i) compliance with Applicable
Requirements per Paragraph 6.3, (ii) the inspection, maintenance and service
contracts required under Paragraph 7.1(b), (iii) the rescission of an
unauthorized assignment or subletting per Paragraph 12.1, (iv) a Tenancy
Statement per Paragraphs 16 or 37, (v) the subordination or non-subordination of
this Lease per Paragraph 30, (vi) the guaranty of the performance of Lessee's
obligations under this Lease if required under Paragraphs 1.11 and 37, (vii) the
execution of any document requested under Paragraph 42 (easements), or (viii)
any other documentation or information which Lessor may reasonably require of
Lessee under the terms of this lease, where any such failure continues for a
period of ten (10) days following written notice by or on behalf of Lessor to
Lessor.
(d) A Default by Lessee as to the terms, covenants, conditions
or provisions of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 40 hereof
that are to be observed, complied with or performed by Lessee, other than those
described in Subparagraphs 13.1(a), (b) or (c), above, where such Default
continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof by or on
behalf of Lessor to Lessee; provided; however, that if the nature of Lessee's
Default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its
cure, then it shall not be deemed to be a Breach of this Lease by Lessee if
Lessee commences such cure within said thirty (30) day period and thereafter
diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
(e) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the
making by Lessee of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of
creditors; (ii) Lessee's becoming a "debtor" as defined in 11 U.S. Code Section
101 or any successor statue thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed
against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) the
appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of
Lessee's assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease,
where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days; or (iv) the
attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee's
assets located at the Premises or of Lessee's interest in this Lease, where such
seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days; provided, however, in the
event that any provision of this Subparagraph 13.1(e) is contrary to any
applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect, and shall not
effect the validity of the remaining provisions.
26
(f) The discovery by Lessor that any financial statement of
Lessee or of any Guarantor, given to Lessor by Lessee or any Guarantor, was
materially false.
(g) If the performance of Lessee's obligations under this
Lease is guaranteed; (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the termination of a
Guarantor's liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance with
the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor's becoming insolvent or the
subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor's refusal to honor the
guaranty, or (v) a Guarantor's breach of its guaranty obligation on an
anticipatory breach basis, and Lessee's failure, within sixty (60) days
following written notice by or on behalf of Lessor to Lessee of any such event,
to provide Lessor with written alternative assurances of security, which, when
coupled with the then existing resources of Lessee, equals or exceeds the
combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that existed at the
time of execution of this Lease.
13.2. REMEDIES. If Lessee fails to perform any affirmative duty or
obligation of Lessee under this Lease, within ten (10) days after written notice
to Lessee (or in case of an emergency, without notice), Lessor may at its option
(but without obligation to do so), perform such duty or obligation on Lessee's
behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds,
insurance policies or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. The costs and
expenses of any such performance by Lessor shall be due and payable by Lessee to
Lessor upon invoice therefor. If any check given to Lessor by Lessee shall not
be honored by the bank upon which it is drawn, Lessor, at its own option, may
require all future payments to be made under this Lease by Lessee to be made
only by cashier's check. In the event of a Breach of this Lease by Lessee (as
defined in Paragraph 13.1), with or without further notice or demand, and
without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may
have by reason of such Breach, Lessor may:
(a) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the Premises by
any lawful means, in which case this Lease and the term hereof shall terminate
and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In
such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i) the worth at the
time of the award of the unpaid rent which had been earned at the time of
terminations (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the
unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of
award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have
been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by
which the unpaid rent for the balance of the form after the time of award
exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be
reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for
all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee's failure to perform its
obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be
likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the cost of recovering
possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary
renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys' fees, and that
portion of any leasing commission paid by Lessor in connection with this Lease
applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. The worth at the time of award
of the amount referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding
sentence shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of
the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco or the Federal Reserve Bank District
in which the Premises are located at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
Efforts by Lessor
27
to mitigate damages caused by Lessee's Default or Breach of this Lease shall not
waive Lessor's right to recover damages under this Paragraph 13.2. If
termination of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy of unlawful
detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such proceeding the unpaid
rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor may reserve the right to
recover all or any part thereof in a separate suite for such rent and/or
damages. If a notice and grace period required under Subparagraph 13.1(b), (c)
or (d) was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or
quit, as the case may be, given to Lessee under any statute authorizing the
forfeiture of leases for unlawful detainer shall also constitute the applicable
notice for grace period purposes required by Subparagraph 13.1(b), (c) or (d).
In such case, the applicable grace period under the unlawful detainer statute
shall run concurrently after the one such statutory notice, and the failure of
Lessee to cure the Default within the greater of the two (2) such grace periods
shall constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling
Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute.
(b) Continue the Lease and Lessee's right to possession in
effect (in California under California Civil Code Section 1951.4) after Lessee's
Breach and recover the rent as it becomes due, provided Lessee has the right to
sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Lessor and Lessee
agree that the limitations on assignment and subletting in this Lease are
reasonable. Acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the Premises,
or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor's interest under this
Lease, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee's right to possession.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to
Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises
are located.
(d) The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the
termination of Lessee's right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from
liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring
or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee's occupancy of the
Premises.
13.3. INDUCEMENT RECAPTURE IN EVENT OF BREACH. Any agreement by Lessor
for free or abated rent or other charges applicable to the Premises, or for the
giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus,
inducement or consideration for Lessee's entering into this Lease, all of which
concessions are hereinafter referred to as "Inducement Provisions" shall be
deemed conditioned upon Lessee's full and faithful performance of all of the
terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be performed or observed by
Lessee during the term hereof as the same may be extended. Upon the occurrence
of a Breach (as defined in Paragraph 13.1) of this Lease by Lessee, any such
inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and
of no further force and effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or
consideration theretofore abated, given or paid by Lessor under such an
inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor,
and recoverable by Lessor, as additional rent due under this Lease,
notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by
Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which initiated the operation of this
Paragraph 13.3 shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the
28
provisions of this Paragraph 13.3 unless specifically so stated in writing by
Lessor at the time of such acceptance.
13.4. LATE CHARGES. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by
Lessee to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur
costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be
extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to,
processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon
Lessor by the terms of any ground lease, mortgage or deed of trust covering the
Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or other sum due from Lessor
shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor's designee within ten (10) days after
such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee,
Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to six percent (6%) of such
overdue amount. The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a late
and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of late payment
by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute
a waiver of Lessee's Default or Breach with respect to such overdue amount, nor
prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted
hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder whether or not
collected for three (3) consecutive installments of Base Rent, then
notwithstanding Paragraph 4.1 or any other provision of this Lease to the
contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor's option, become due and payable quarterly
in advance.
13.5. BREACH BY LESSOR. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this
Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation
required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph 13.5, a
reasonable time shall in no event be less than thirty (30) days after receipt by
Lessor, and by any Lender(s) whose name and address shall have been furnished to
Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such
obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the
nature of Lessor's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days after such
notice are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in
breach of this Lease if performance is commenced within such thirty (30) day
period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
14. CONDEMNATION.
If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power
of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (all of
which are herein called "condemnation"), this Lease shall terminate as to the
part so taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession,
whichever first occurs. If more than ten percent (10%) of the floor area of the
Premises, or more than twenty five percent (25%) of the portion of the Common
Areas designated for Lessee's parking, is taken by condemnation, Lessee may, at
Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing within ten (10) days after Lessor
shall have given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such
notice, within ten (10) days after the condemning authority shall have taken
possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes
such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the
foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and affect as to the portion of
the Premises remaining, except that the Base Rent shall be reduced in the same
proportion as the rentable floor area of the Premises taken bears to the total
rentable floor area of the Premises. No
29
reduction of Base Rent shall occur if the condemnation does not apply to any
portion of the Premises. Any award for the taking of all or any part of the
Premises under the power of eminent domain or any payment made under threat of
the exercise of such power shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award
shall be made as compensation for diminution of value of the leasehold or for
the taking of the fee, or as severance damages; provided, however, that Lessor
shall be entitled to any compensation, separately awarded to Lessee for Lessee's
relocation expenses and/or loss of Lessee's Trade Fixtures. In the event that
this Lease is not terminated by reason of such condemnation, Lessor shall to the
extent of its net severance damages received, over and above Lessee's Share of
the legal and other expenses incurred by Lessor in the condemnation matter,
repair any damage to the Premises caused by such condemnation authority. Lessor
shall be responsible for the payment of any amount in excess of such net
severance damages required to complete such repair.
15. BROKER'S FEES.
15.1. PROCURING CAUSE. The Broker(s) named in Paragraph 1.10
is/are the procuring cause of this Lease.
15.2. ASSUMPTION OF OBLIGATIONS. Any buyer or transferee of
Lessor's interest in this Lease, whether such transfer is by agreement or by
operation of law shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor's obligation under this
Paragraph 15. Each Broker shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the
provisions of Paragraph 1.10 and of this Paragraph 15 to the extent of its
interest in any commission arising from this Lease and may enforce that right
directly against Lessor and its successors.
15.3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTEE. Lessee and Lessor each
represent and warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person,
firm, broker or finder other than as named in Paragraph 1.10(a) in connection
with the negotiation of this Lease and/or the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby, and that no broker or other person, firm or entity other
than said named Broker(s) is entitled to any commission or finder's fee in
connection with said transaction. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree to
indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against
liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed
broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or actions of
the indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, and/or attorneys' fees
reasonably incurred with respect therein.

confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.

assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid, the prior Lessor
shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the obligations and/or
covenants under the Lease thereafter to be performed by the Lessor. Subject to
the foregoing, the obligations and/or covenants in this Lease to be performed by
the Lessor shall be binding only upon the Lessor as hereinabove defined.
18. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any
other provision hereof.
19. INTEREST ON PAST DUE OBLIGATIONS. Any monetary payment due Lessor
hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor within ten (10) days
following the date on which it was due, shall bear interest from the date due at
the prime rate charged by the largest state chartered bank in the state in which
the Premises are located plus four percent (4%) per annum, but not exceeding the
maximum rate allowed by law, in addition to the potential late charge provided
for in Paragraph 13.4.
20. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of
all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this Lease.
21. RENT DEFINED All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the terms
of this Lease are deemed to be rent.
22. NO PRIOR OR OTHER AGREEMENTS; BROKER DISCLAIMER. This Lease contains all
agreements between the Parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein, and
no other prior or contemporaneous agreement understanding shall be effective.
Lesser and Lessor each represents and warrants to the Broker that it has made,
and is relying safely upon, its own investigation as to the nature, quality,
character and financial responsibility with respect thereto or with respect to
any default or breach hereof by either Party. Each Broker shall be an intended
third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Paragraph 22.
23. NOTICES.
23.1. NOTICE REQUIREMENTS. All notices required or permitted by this
Lease shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand or by
messenger or courier service) or may be
31
sent by regular, certified or registered mail or U.S. Postal Service Express
Mail, with postage prepaid, or by facsimile transmission during normal business
hours, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if served in a manner specified in
this Paragraph 23. The addresses noted adjacent to a Party's signature on this
Lease shall be the Party's address for delivery or mailing of notice purposes.
Either Party may by written notice to the other specify a different address for
notice purposes, except that upon Lessee's taking of the Premises, the Premises
shall constitute Lessee's address for the purpose of mailing or delivering
notices to Lessee. A copy of the notices required or permitted to be given to
Lessor hereunder shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at
such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designated by written
notice to Lessee.

return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on
the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If sent
by regular mail, the notice shall be deemed given forty eight (48) hours after
the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage prepaid.
Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight courier that
guarantees next day delivery shall be deemed given twenty four (24) hours after
delivery of the same to the United States Postal Service or courier. If any
notice is transmitted by facsimile transmission or similar means, the same shall
be deemed served or delivered up telephone or facsimile confirmation or receipt
of the transmission thereof, provided a copy is also delivered via delivery or
mail. If notice is received on a Saturday or a Sunday or a legal holiday, it
shall be deemed received on the next business day.
24. WAIVERS. No waiver by Lessor of the Default or Breach of any term, covenant
or condition hereof by Lessee, shall be deemed in waiver of any other term,
covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default or Breach by Lessee
of the same or any other term, covenant or condition hereof. Lessor's consent
to, or approval of, any such act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the
obtaining of Lessor's consent to, or approval of, any subsequent or similar act
by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an estoppel to enforce the provisions
of this Lease requiring such consent. Regardless of Lessor's knowledge of a
Default or Breach at the time of accepting rent, the acceptance of rent by
Lessor shall not be a waiver of any Default or Breach by Lessee of any provision
hereof. Any payment given Lessor by Lessee may be accepted by Lessor on account
of moneys or damages due Lessor, notwithstanding any qualifying statements or
conditions made by Lessee in connection therewith, which such statements and/or
conditions shall be no force or effect whatsoever unless specifically agreed to
in writing by Lessor at or before the time of deposit of such payment.

execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other a short form memorandum of this
Lease for recording purposes. The party requesting recordation shall be
responsible for payment of any fees or taxes applicable thereto.
26. NO RIGHT TO HOLDOVER. Lessee has no right to retain possession of the
Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or earlier termination of
this Lease. In the event that Lessee holds over in violation of this Paragraph
26 then the Base Rent payable from and after the time of
32
the expiration or earlier termination this Lease shall be increased to two
hundred percent (200%) of the Base Rent applicable during the month immediately
proceeding such expiration or earlier termination. Nothing contained herein
shall be counted as a consent by Lessor to any holding over by Lessee.
27. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed
exclusive but shall, whereover possible, be cumulative with all other remedies
at law or in equity.
28. COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or
performed by Lessee are both covenants and conditions.
29. BINDING EFFECT; CHOICE OF LAW. This Lease shall be binding upon the
Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be governed
by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located. Any litigation
between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be initiated in the
county in which the Premises are located.
30. SUBORDINATION; ATTORNMENT; NON-DISTURBANCE.
30.1. Subordination. This Lease and any Option granted hereby shall
be subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or
other hypothecation or security device (collectively, "Security Device"), now or
hereafter placed by Lessor upon the real property of which the Premises are a
part, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals,
modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. Lessee
agrees that the Lenders holding any such Security Device shall have no duty,
liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Lessor under this
Lease, but that in the event of Lessor's default with respect to any such
obligation, Lessee will give any Lender whose name and address have been
furnished Lessee in writing for such purpose notice of Lessor's default pursuant
to Paragraph 13.5. If any Lender shall elect to have this Lease and/or any
Option granted hereby superior to the lien of its Security Device and shall
given written notice thereof to Lessee, this Lease and such Options shall be
deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative dates of the
documentation or recordation thereof.
30.2. Attornment. Subject to the non-disturbance provisions of
Paragraph 30.3, Lessee agrees to attorn to a Lender or any other party who
acquires ownership of the Premises by reason of the foreclosure of a Security
Device, that in the event of such foreclosure, such new owner shall not: (i) be
liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to events
occurring prior to acquisitions of ownership, (ii) be subject to any offsets or
defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, or (iii) be bound by
prepayment of more than one month's rent.
30.3 Non-Disturbance. With respect to Security Devices entered into
by Lessor after the execution of this lease, Lessee's subordination of this
Lease shall be subject to receiving assurance (a "non disturbance agreement")
from the Lender that Lessor's possession and this Lease, including any options
to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so long as Lessee is not in
Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of the Premises.
33
30.4 Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 30
shall be effective without the execution of any further documents; provided,
however, that upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with a
sale, financing or refinancing of Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute such
further writings as may be reasonably required in separately document any such
subordination or non subordination, attornment and/or non-disturbance agreement
as is provided for herein.
31. ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding to
enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing Party (as
hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon, shall be
entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such fees may be awarded in the same
suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or proceeding,
action, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees. Such
fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or
not such action or proceeding is pursued in decision or judgment. The term
"PREVAILING PARTY" shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who
substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether
by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or
Broker of its claim or defense. The attorneys' fee award shall not be computed
in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully
reimburse all attorneys' fees reasonably incurred. Lessor shall be entitled to
attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in preparation and service of
notices of Default and consultation in connection therewith, whether or not a
legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default or
resulting Breach. Broker(s) shall be intended third party beneficiaries of the
Paragraph 31.
32. LESSOR'S ACCESS; SHOWING PREMISES; REPAIRS. Lessor and Lessor's agents
shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an
emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times for the purpose of showing the same
to prospective purchasers, lenders, or lessees, and making such alterations,
repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises or to the Building, as Lessor
may reasonably deem necessary. Lessor may at any time place on or about the
Premises or Building any ordinary "For Sale" signs and Lessor may at any time
during the last one hundred eighty (180) days of the term hereof place on or
about the Premises any ordinary "For Lease" signs. All such activities of Lessor
shall be without abatement of rent or liability to Lessee.
33. AUCTIONS. Lessor shall not conduct, or permit to be conducted, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, any auction upon the Premises without first having
obtained Lessor's prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Lease, Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any standard
of reasonableness in determining whether to grant such consent.
34. SIGNS. Lessee shall not place any sign upon the exterior of the Premises
or the Building, except that Lessee may, with Lessor's prior written consent,
install (but not on the roof) such signs as are reasonably required to advertise
Lessee's own business so long as such signs are in a location designated by
Lessor and comply with Applicable Requirements and the signage criteria
established for the Industrial Center by Lessor. The installation of any sign on
the Premises by or for Lessee shall be subject to the provisions of Paragraph 7
(Maintenance, Repairs, Utility Installation, Trade Fixtures and Alterations).
Unless otherwise expressly agreed herein, Lessor
34
reserves all rights to the use of the roof of the Building, and to the right to
install advertising signs on the Building, including the roof, which do not
unreasonably interfere with the conduct of Lessee's business; Lessor shall be
entitled to all revenues from such advertising signs.
35. TERMINATION; MERGER. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by
Lessor, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, the mutual
termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Lessor for Xxxxxx
by Lessee, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate in the
Premises; provided, however, Lesser shall, in the event of any such surrender,
termination or cancellation, have the option to continue any one or all of the
existing subtenancies. Lessor's failure within ten (10) days following any such
event to make a written election to the contrary by written notice to the holder
or any such lessor interest, shall constitute Lessor's election to have such
event constitute the termination of such interest.
36. CONSENTS.
(a) Except for Paragraph 33 hereof (Auctions) or as otherwise
provided herein, wherever in this Lease the consent of a Party is required to an
act by or for the other Party, such consent shall not be unreasonably withhold
or delayed. Lessor's actual reasonable costs and expenses (including but not
limited to architects', attorneys', engineers' and other consultants' fees)
incurred in the consideration, of, or response to, a request by Lessee for any
Lessor consent pertaining to this Lease or the Premises, including but not
limited to consents to an assignment a subletting or the presence or use of a
Hazardous Substance, shall be paid by Lessee to Lessor upon receipt of an
invoice and supporting documentation therefor. In addition to the deposit
described in Paragraph 12.2(e), Lessor may, as a condition to conserving any
such request by Lessee, require that Lessee deposit with Lessor an amount of
money (in addition to the Security Deposit held under Paragraph 5) reasonably
calculated by Lessor to represent the cost Lessor will incur in considering and
responding to Lessee's request. Any unused portion of said deposit shall be
refunded to Lessee without interest. Lessor's consent to any act, assignment of
this Lease or subletting of the Premises by Lessee shall not constitute an
acknowledgment that no Default or Breach by Lessee of this Lease exists, nor
shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing Default or Breach,
except as may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Lessor at the time
of such consent.
(b) All conditions to Lessor's consent authorized by this Lease
are acknowledge by Lessee as being reasonable. The failure to specify herein any
particular condition to Lessor's consent shall not preclude the impositions by
Lessor at the time of consent of such further or other conditions as are then
reasonable with reference to the particular matter for which consent is being
given.
37. GUARANTOR.
37.1. Form of Guaranty. If there are to be any Guarantors of this Lease
per Paragraph 1.11, the form of the guaranty to be executed by each such
Guarantor shall be in the form most recently published by the American
Industrial Real Estate Association, and each such Guarantor shall have the same
obligations as Lessee under this lease, including but not limited to the
obligation to provide the Tenancy Statement and information required in

guaranty called for by this Lease, including the authority of the Guarantor (and
of the party signing on Guarantor's behalf) to obligate such Guarantor on said
guaranty, and resolution of its board of directors authorizing the making of
such guaranty, together with a certificate of incumbency showing the signatures
of the persons authorized to sign on its behalf, (b) current financial

assignable, either as a part of an assignment of this Lease or separately or
apart therefrom, and no Option may be separated from this Lease in any manner,
by reservation or otherwise.
39.3. Multiple Options. In the event that Lessee has any multiple

terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee's due and
timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and during the term of

for a period of thirty (30) days after such obligation becomes due (without any
necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof to Lessee), or (ii) Lessor gives to
Lessee three (3) or more notices of separate Defaults under Paragraph 13.1
