ARTICLE 2. TERM

2.1 Lease Term. The term of this Lease will be for 15 years commencing on December 22, 2005 (the “Commencement Date”) and ending on December 21, 2020 (“Lease Term”). Tenant has two consecutive five-year options to extend the Lease Term, as further described in Article 34.

ARTICLE 3. RENT

3.1 Base Monthly Rental. Tenant shall pay to Landlord at the address set forth in Section 36.10, or such other address as Landlord may advise Tenant in writing, without deduction, offset or prior notice or demand, and Landlord shall accept, as rent for the Premises the sum of $158,333.00 per month ($1,900,000.00 per year), subject to adjustments pursuant to Section 3.3 below, in lawful money of the United States payable in advance on the first day of each month of the term of this Lease. Said monthly installments shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Base Monthly Rental.” Tenant has delivered to Landlord the Base Monthly Rental for the first month of the term hereof upon execution and delivery of this Lease. For purposes of this Lease, “Rent” will mean the Base Monthly Rent plus the Additional Rent plus any other charges due Landlord by Tenant under this Lease.

3.2 Proration of Rent. Prior to the first day of the first full calendar month of occupancy, in lieu of the Base Monthly Rental, Tenant will pay Landlord an amount equal to the Base Monthly Rental multiplied by a factor having as its numerator the number of days remaining in the month from, after and including the Commencement Date and as its denominator the number thirty. On the first day of the last month of this Lease, in lieu of the Base Monthly Rental, Tenant will pay Landlord an amount equal to the Base Monthly Rental multiplied by a factor having as its numerator the number of days remaining in the lease term and as its denominator the number thirty. Except as provided in Section 3.2, Rent shall be payable in accordance with the terms of Section 3.1.

3.3 Annual Adjustments. The Base Monthly Rental will be increased annually commencing on the first day of the calendar month immediately following the third anniversary of the Commencement Date, and on each anniversary thereafter, by an amount equal to 2.75% of the Base Monthly Rental for the preceding year.

3.4 Additional Rent, Expenses and Costs. Commencing upon the Commencement Date, Tenant shall pay to Landlord (unless otherwise expressly required hereunder to pay directly to a third party), as additional rent (“Additional Rent”), all sums of money of any and every sort required to be paid by Tenant under this Lease, whether or not the same are designated as Additional Rent; provided,

however, with respect to capital replacements in the last five years of the Lease Term, Landlord shall initially be responsible for the cost of such capital replacements and Tenant shall only make such capital replacements after obtaining Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The cost of such capital replacements shall be amortized over the useful life of the capital replacement, as such useful life is determined under Internal Revenue Service Treasury regulations, and the pro rata portion of the cost thereof attributable to the period: (a) prior to the expiration of the Lease Term shall be payable by the Tenant, at Tenant’s option, (i) monthly as Additional Rent with interest on the unamortized balance at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum (the “Default Rate”), or (ii) to Landlord in cash within 10 days of receipt of Landlord’s consent, or (b) following the expiration of the Lease Term shall not be included as Additional Rent and shall be the sole responsibility of Landlord; provided, however, if Tenant exercises an option to extend the Lease Term pursuant to Section 34, Landlord may recover and Tenant shall (y), in the event it exercised its option pursuant to subsection (a)(i) above, continue to pay monthly as Additional Rent the portion of such cost previously excluded to the extent it falls within the extension term, or (z) in the event Tenant exercised its option pursuant to subsection (a)(ii) above, pay to Landlord within 10 days following Tenant’s exercise of such option pursuant to Section 34, the portion of such cost previously excluded to the extent it falls within the extension term. If such amounts or charges are not paid at the time provided in this Lease, they shall nevertheless be collectible as Additional Rent with the next installment of the Base Monthly Rental thereafter falling due, but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to suspend or delay the payment of any amount of money or charge at the time the same becomes due and payable hereunder, or limit any other remedy of Landlord. Except as provided in this Section, Tenant acknowledges that this is an absolute net lease to Landlord. As such, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Rent, all costs and expenses relating to the Premises.

3.5 Late Fees. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of the Base Monthly Rental or other charges incurred under this Lease will cause Landlord to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult and impracticable to fix. Such costs include, without limitation, processing, administrative and accounting charges. If any payment of Base Monthly Rental, Additional Rent, or other charges due from Tenant is not received by Landlord within 5 business days of when due, such unpaid amounts shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date due to the date of payment. In addition to interest, Tenant shall pay a sum of the greater of (i) 3% of the overdue rent or (ii) $15.00 as a late charge (“Late Charge”). Late Charges shall constitute Additional Rent. The parties agree that the Late Charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Landlord will incur by reason of late payment by Tenant. Acceptance of any Late Charge shall not constitute a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount, or prevent Landlord from exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord hereunder.

3.6 Security Deposit. Tenant will pay a security deposit of $300,000 (payable in cash or in the form of a letter of credit reasonably acceptable to Landlord) (the “Security Deposit”).

3.6.1 In lieu of depositing cash as the Security Deposit, Tenant shall have the right to deliver to Landlord an unconditional, irrevocable, standby letter of credit in the amount of the cash Security Deposit otherwise required hereunder, which letter of credit shall (i) be in a form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (ii) be issued by a financial institution selected by Tenant and reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iii) be for the benefit of Landlord, but shall be transferable at Tenant’s sole cost and expense by Landlord to any subsequent purchaser or encumbrancer of the Building, (iv) be automatically renewable from year to year throughout the Lease Term, (v) be payable by draft sight in a location reasonably acceptable to Landlord upon presentation of a certification signed by an officer of Landlord which states that Tenant has failed to perform any of its monetary or non-monetary obligations, and all notice and cure provisions of the Lease have been provided for and lapsed, and (vi) be payable in the event such letter of credit is not renewed on or before the date which is thirty (30) days prior to its expiration. Any amounts of cash drawn on a letter of credit Security Deposit will thereafter be treated as a cash Security Deposit hereunder.

3.6.2 Tenant shall have the right at any time during the Lease Term upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Landlord (i) to replace a cash Security Deposit with a letter of credit which complies with all the terms of Section 3.6.1, or (ii) to replace a letter of credit Security Deposit with a corresponding amount of cash.

3.6.3 Springing Security Deposit. Within 40 days after the end of each calendar quarter, Tenant shall provide to Landlord an Officer’s Certificate in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto to the effect that (i) either (a) the value of the Tenant’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities (as set forth in Tenant’s financial statements) at the end of such calendar quarter are equal to or greater than $80,000,000, or (b) the value of the Tenant’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities at the end of such calendar quarter are less than $80,000,000. If the value of the Tenant’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities drops below $80,000,000, Tenant shall, within five business (5) days after delivery of such Officer’s Certificate, deposit with Landlord an additional security deposit in an amount equal to $1,200,000 (payable in cash or in the form of a letter of credit reasonably acceptable to Landlord in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.6.1) (the “Springing Security Deposit” and, together with the Security Deposit, the “Security Deposits”); provided, however, in the event Tenant’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable investment securities once again exceeds $80,000,000 for two consecutive calendar quarters, Landlord shall promptly return the Springing Security Deposit to Tenant; provided, further, in the event Tenant reports financial profitability for four consecutive quarters, the requirements of this Section 3.6.3 shall be permanently eliminated and Landlord shall promptly return the Springing Security Deposit to Tenant. Failure to timely provide such Officer’s Certificate or such Springing Security Deposit, if required, shall be a default under this Lease.

3.6.4 If Tenant fails to pay Rent when required or fails to perform any other covenant contained herein, Landlord may use or retain all or any part of the Security Deposits for the payment of any sum not so paid, or for the payment of any amount which Landlord may spend or become obligated to spend by reason of Tenant’s default, provided that Landlord provides written notice to Tenant and the applicable cure period for such default has expired without Tenant effecting a cure. If any portion of the Security Deposits are so applied or used, then Tenant shall, within 5 business days after written notice thereof, deposit an additional amount with Landlord sufficient to restore each said Security Deposit to the amount set forth above and Tenant’s failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Lease.

3.6.5 If Tenant has performed all of its monetary and other obligations hereunder at the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall return each said Security Deposit to Tenant within 30 days after termination of this Lease, less any amounts required to restore the Premises to good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted, including repairing any damage resulting from the removal by Tenant of its trade fixtures or equipment.

3.6.6 Landlord’s obligation with respect to the Security Deposits are that of a debtor and not as a trustee, consequently, such sums may be commingled with rental receipts or dissipated and no interest shall accrue thereon.

3.6.7 In the event of the sale of the real property of which the Premises constitute a part, Landlord’s successor in interest shall assume Landlord’s obligations with respect to the sums held as security or advance rent and notify Tenant in writing setting forth the particularity of such transfer, including the successor’s name and address. Upon such assumption and written notification, Tenant shall have no further claim against Landlord with respect to any such Security Deposits and hereby waives all rights against Landlord in such regard. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord will remain personally liable to the extent Landlord’s successor in interest fails to assume the Landlord’s obligations with respect to the deposit as specified above.

12.8 Action by Landlord if Tenant Fails to Maintain. If Tenant refuses or neglects to repair or maintain the Premises as required by Sections 12.3, 12.4, 12.5, or 12.6 to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord, Landlord, at any time following 10 days from the date on which Landlord shall make written demand on Tenant to affect such repair or maintenance, may, but shall not have the obligation to, make such repair and/or maintenance (without liability to Tenant for any loss or damage which may occur to Tenant’s merchandise, fixtures or other personal property, or to Tenant’s business by reason thereof, other than due to Landlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) and upon completion thereof, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent Landlord’s costs for making such repairs, plus interest at the Default Rate upon demand herefore.

In the event that the payments made by Tenant for the operation and maintenance of the Premises exceed Tenant’s share of the cost of same, such amount shall be credited by Landlord to the Rent or other charges next due and owing, provided that, if the Lease term has expired, Landlord shall accompany said statement with the amount due Tenant.

ARTICLE 13. SIGNS AND ADVERTISING

13.1 Signs. Landlord shall designate the location on the Premises for one or more exterior Tenant identification sign(s) and Tenant shall not display or erect any other signs, displays, or other advertising materials that are visible from the exterior of the building. The size, design, and other physical aspects of the permitted sign(s) shall be subject to the Landlord’s written approval prior to installation, which approval will not unreasonably be withheld, any covenants, conditions, or restrictions encumbering the Premises, any applicable municipal or other governmental permits and approvals.

ARTICLE 15. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

15.1 Assignment and Subletting. Tenant shall neither voluntarily nor by operation of law, assign, sell, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer all or any part of Tenant’s leasehold estate hereunder, or permit the Premises to be occupied by anyone other than Tenant or Tenant’s employees, or sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, without Landlord’s prior written consent in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any purported assignment or subletting contrary to these provisions shall be void. It shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to base its determination as to whether consent will be granted in any specific instance on, without limitation, the following factors: (a) whether the assignee’s or subtenant’s use of the Premises will be compatible with the provisions of this Lease; (b) the financial capacity of the assignee or subtenant; (c) the business reputation of the assignee or subtenant; (d) the quality and type of the business operations of the assignee or subtenant; (e) the business experience of the proposed assignee or subtenant; and (f) that each and every covenant, condition or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease is assumed by such assignee or subtenant and each and every right, remedy or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease is not thereby impaired or diminished. This list of factors is not intended to be exclusive, and Landlord may rely on such other reasonable basis for judgment as may apply from time to time. Consent by Landlord to one or more assignments of this Lease or to one or more sublettings of the Premises shall not operate to exhaust Landlord’s rights under this Section.

15.2 Notice to Landlord. If Tenant desires at any time to assign this Lease or to sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify Landlord of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to Landlord (the “Transfer Notice”); (i) the size and location of the space Tenant proposes to assign or sublet; (ii) the name of the proposed assignee; (iii) the date on which the Tenant proposes that the transfer be effective, which shall not be earlier than the date which is 30 days after the Transfer Notice (iv) the nature of the proposed assignee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (v) the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; (vi) such reasonable financial information as Landlord may request concerning the proposed assignee, and (vii) such other information as Landlord may reasonably require. Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for Landlord’s actual costs and attorneys’ fees (not to exceed $2,000) incurred in conjunction with the processing and documentation of any such requested assignment, subletting, transfer, change or ownership or hypothecation of this Lease.

15.3 Notwithstanding Section 15.1 and 15.2, Landlord agrees that Tenant may assign its interest in this Lease, without Landlord’s prior written consent or notice, to any (each such assignment, a “Specially Permitted Assignment”) successor by merger or sale of substantially all of Tenant’s assets to which this Lease relates in a manner such that the assignee will become liable and responsible for the performance and observance of all Tenant’s duties and obligations hereunder. In addition, Tenant may assign its interest in this Lease to any corporation or other entity which controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Tenant, a corporation or other entity will be regarded as in control of another corporation or entity if its owns or controls in excess of 50% of the voting stock or other ownership interest of the other corporation or entity), subject to the prerequisite condition that the corporation or other entity to which Tenant’s interest in this Lease would be assigned must demonstrate to the satisfaction of Landlord that: (i) it has financial soundness and capability which is equal to or greater than that of Tenant, (ii) it’s net worth is equal to or greater than that of Tenant’s immediately preceding such

assignment, (iii) the assignee’s use of the Premises will be compatible with the provisions of the Lease, and (iv) each and every covenant, condition or obligation imposed upon Tenant by this Lease is assumed by such assignee and each and every right, remedy or benefit afforded Landlord by this Lease is not thereby impaired or diminished.

15.4 No Release of Liability. No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Landlord, shall relieve Tenant of its obligation to pay the Rent and perform all the other obligations to be performed by Tenant hereunder. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease or to be a consent to any assignment or subletting.

15.5 Transfer Premiums. If Tenant assigns or sublets its rights under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as Additional Rent, after Tenant has recovered any relevant leasing commissions, costs of tenant improvements and other expenses of the assignment or sublease, 50% of such excess consideration due and payable to Tenant from said assignment or sublease to the extent said consideration exceeds the Base Monthly Rental and all other costs which constitute “Additional Rent” (including, without limitation, amounts attributable to insurance, utilities, maintenance and repairs, Ground Lease rental and real estate taxes) or a pro rata portion of the Base Monthly Rental and Additional Rent, in the event only a portion of the Premises is sublet or assigned (“Profits”); provided, however, Landlord will not be entitled to any Profits derived in connection with a Specially Permitted Assignment.

15.6 Landlord’s Option. If Tenant desires at any time to assign or sublet all or substantially all of the Premises, Landlord, within 15 days after Landlord’s receipt of all of the information required in the Transfer Notice, may by written notice to Tenant elect to terminate this Lease as to the entire Premises. In the event the Landlord elects to terminate the Lease, the Lease shall terminate on the proposed date the transfer would be effective as specified in the Transfer Notice and Tenant shall have no further obligations with respect to the Premises other than to surrender and vacate the Premises on or before the effective date of termination. After any such election by Landlord, Landlord shall be entitled to re-lease the Premises in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion.

ARTICLE 16. DISPOSSESSION

16.1 No Dispossession. If Tenant shall surrender the Premises, or be disposed by process of law, or otherwise, Landlord may terminate this Lease, retake possession of the Premises, pursue its remedies provided herein, and any personal property or trade fixtures belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall, at the option of Landlord, be deemed abandoned. In such case, Landlord may dispose of said personal property in any manner and is hereby relieved of all liability for doing so.

ARTICLE 17. BREACH BY TENANT

17.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a breach and material default of this Lease by Tenant:

17.1.1 The failure of Tenant to pay or cause to be paid when due any Base Monthly Rental, Additional Rent, Rent, Security Deposits (including the Springing Security Deposit), taxes, monies, or charges required by this Lease to be paid by Tenant when such failure continues for a period of 5 business days after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant;

17.1.2 The failure of Tenant to perform any term, covenant or condition, other than payment of Rent, Security Deposits (including the Springing Security Deposit), taxes, monies or charges, required by this Lease and Tenant shall have failed to cure such failure within 30 days after written notice from Landlord; provided, however, that where such failure cannot reasonably be cured within the 30 day period, the Tenant shall not be in default if it has commenced such cure within the same 30 day period and diligently thereafter prosecutes the same to completion;

17.1.3 Subject to the notice and cure provisions of Section 17.1.2 above, Tenant causing, permitting, or suffering, without the prior written consent of Landlord, any act when this Lease requires Landlord’s prior written consent or prohibits such act; or

17.1.4 To the extent permitted by applicable law, any act of bankruptcy cause, suffered or permitted by Tenant. For purposes of this Lease, “act of bankruptcy” shall include any of the following:

17.1.4.1. Any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors;

17.1.4.2. The filing of any petition by or against Tenant to have Tenant adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy, unless such petition is filed against Tenant and same is dismissed within 120 days;

17.1.4.4. The attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease.

17.2 No Waiver. The acceptance by Landlord of Rent due hereunder after breach by Tenant will not constitute a waiver of such breach, unless a written notice to that effect has been delivered to Tenant.

17.3 Replacement of Statutory Notice Requirements. When this Lease requires service of a notice, that notice shall replace rather than supplement any equivalent or similar statutory notice, including any notices required by applicable law. When a statute requires service of a notice in a particular manner, service of that notice (or a similar notice required by this Lease) in the manner required by Section 36.10 shall replace and satisfy the statutory service-of-notice procedures.

ARTICLE 18. REMEDIES UPON BREACH

18.1 Landlord’s Remedies. If Tenant fails to perform any of its affirmative duties or obligations, within 10 days after written notice (or in the case of any facts or circumstances that create an imminent risk of damage to the Property or the Premises or injury to, or death of, persons, without written notice), Landlord may, at its option, perform such duty or obligation on Tenant’s behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonable required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. Tenant shall pay to Landlord an amount equal to the costs and expenses incurred by Landlord in such performance upon receipt of an invoice, with interest thereon, at the Default Rate from the date of expenditure. In the event of any breach or material default by Tenant under Section 17.1, in addition to other rights or remedies of Landlord at law or in equity, Landlord shall have the following remedies:

18.1.1 Landlord shall have the remedy which provides that, when a tenant has the right to sublet or assign (subject only to reasonable limitations), the landlord may continue the lease in effect after the tenant’s breach and abandonment and recover Rent as it becomes due; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be entitled to collect Rent which could have been reasonably mitigated by Landlord. Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all Rent as it becomes due, not including any amount of Rent which Landlord could have reasonably mitigated; and

18.1.2 Landlord, either as an alternative or subsequent to exercising the remedies set forth in Section 18.1.1, may terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises by and upon delivery to Tenant of written notice of termination. Landlord may then immediately reenter the Premises and take possession thereof pursuant to legal proceedings and remove all persons and property from the Premises; such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant. No notice of termination shall be necessary in the event that Tenant has abandoned the Premises. In the event that Landlord elects to terminate Tenant’s right of possession, Landlord may recover the following:

18.1.2.1. The worth at the time of the award of the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of termination. “Worth at the time of award” shall be computed by allowing interest at the Default Rate from the date that each portion of the unpaid Rent became past due and owing, including the applicable Late Charge;

18.1.2.2. 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 Landlord could have reasonably mitigated. “Worth at the time of award” shall be determined by allowing interest at the Default Rate from the date that each portion of the such Rent became due and owing, including the applicable Late Charge;

18.1.2.3. The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided. “Worth at the time of award” shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus 1%; and

18.1.2.4. Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom including, but not limited to, commissions that are applicable to the remaining term of this Lease, and expenses of reletting, attorneys’ fees, costs of repairs, recording fees, filing fees and any other expenses customarily resulting from obtaining possession of leased premises and re-leasing. For purposes of clarity, Tenant acknowledges that leasing commissions may vary during any given calendar year and Tenant is responsible for all such leasing commissions regardless of amount so long as such amounts are applicable to the remaining term of this Lease.

18.2 Tenant Remedies. If Landlord defaults in the performance of any obligation imposed on it by this Lease or breaches any warranty set forth herein and does not cure such default or breach within ten (10) days from the date on which Tenant shall make written demand on Landlord specifying the default or breach. Tenant’s sole remedy shall be to obtain a judgment for money damages that can be satisfied from Landlord’s interest in the Premises; provided, however, in the event of an emergency, so as to prevent injury to persons or damage to Premises, Tenant may cure such default or breach prior to the expiration of the cure period above with such written or oral notice to Landlord as is appropriate under the circumstances. Tenant shall have no right to terminate this Lease for any default by Landlord.

ARTICLE 19. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION

19.1 Landlord’s Obligation to Rebuild. If the Premises are damaged or destroyed, Landlord shall provide Tenant a good faith estimate of the time it will take to repair the Premises and Landlord shall promptly and diligently repair the Premises unless it has the right to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 19.2 below and it elects to so terminate.

19.2 Landlord’s Right to Terminate. Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease following damage to or destruction of the Premises if any of the following occurs: (i) insurance proceeds together with additional amounts Tenant agrees to contribute, if any, are not confirmed to be available to Landlord, within 90 days following the date of damage, to pay 100% of the cost to fully repair the damaged Premises; (ii) the Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully repaired by Landlord within 18 months after the date of the damage or destruction; (iii) the Premises cannot be safely repaired because of the presence of hazardous factors, including, but not limited to, earthquake faults, radiation, chemical waste and other similar dangers; (iv) the Premises are destroyed or damaged during the last 12 months of the Term; or (v) Tenant is in uncured material default under the terms of this Lease at the time of such damage or destruction.

19.3 Tenant’s Right to Terminate. Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease following damage to or destruction of the Premises if any of the following occurs: (i) the Premises cannot, with reasonable diligence, be fully repaired by Landlord within 18 months after the date of the damage or destruction; or (ii) the Premises are destroyed or damaged during the last 12 months of the Term.

If a party elects to terminate this Lease and has the right to so terminate, such party will give the other party written notice of its election to terminate within 90 days after it has knowledge of such damage or destruction, and this Lease will terminate 15 days after receipt of such notice. If this Lease is terminated pursuant to Section 19.2, Landlord shall, subject to the rights of its lender(s), be entitled to receive and retain all the insurance proceeds resulting from such damage, except for those proceeds payable under policies obtained by Tenant which specifically insure Tenant’s personal property, trade fixtures and machinery. If neither party elects to terminate the Lease, Landlord shall, promptly following the date of such damage or destruction and receipt of amounts required by Tenant, if any, pursuant to Section 19.2(i) above, commence the process of obtaining necessary permits and approvals, and shall diligently commence repair of the Premises as soon as practicable and thereafter prosecute the same diligently to completion, in which event this Lease will continue in full force and effect.

19.4 Limited Obligation to Repair. Landlord’s obligation, should it elect or be obligated to repair or rebuild, shall be limited to the Premises, Building and common areas, and Tenant shall, at its expense, replace or fully repair all Tenant’s personal property and any alterations installed by Tenant existing at the time of such damage or destruction. If the Premises are to be repaired in accordance with the foregoing, Landlord shall make available to Tenant any portion of insurance proceeds it receives which are allocable to the alterations constructed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease provided Tenant is not then in material default.

19.5 Abatement of Rent. Rent shall be temporarily abated in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Premises is impaired during any period when, by reason of such damage or destruction, Landlord and Tenant reasonably determine that there is substantial interference with Tenant’s use of the Building. Such abatement shall commence upon such damage or destruction and end upon completion by Landlord of the repair or reconstruction which Landlord is obligated or undertakes to do. Tenant shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises, damage to Tenant’s personal property or any inconvenience occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration, except to the extent that such damage or loss is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or Landlord’s Agents.

19.6 Replacement Cost. Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to determine the estimated cost of repair of any damage, of the replacement cost, or of the time period required for repairs or replacements under this Article 19.

ARTICLE 20. CONDEMNATION

20.1 Total Taking – Termination. If title to all of the Premises or so much thereof is taken for any public or quasi-public use under any statute or by right of eminent domain so that reconstruction of the Premises will not result in the Premises being reasonably suitable (as reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant) for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the uses and purposes permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall terminate as of the date possession of the Premises or part thereof be taken.

20.2 Partial Taking. If any part of the Premises is taken and the remaining part after Landlord makes repairs and alterations is reasonably suitable, as reasonably determined by Landlord and Tenant, for Tenant’s continued occupancy for the purposes and uses permitted by this Lease, this Lease shall, as to the part so taken terminate as of the date that possession of such part of the Premises is taken and the Base Monthly Rental shall be reduced in the same proportion that the floor area of the portion of the Building so taken (less any addition thereto by reason of any reconstruction) bears to the original floor area of the Building. Landlord shall, at its sole cost and expense, make all necessary repairs or alterations to the Building so as to make the portion of the Building not taken a complete architectural unit. Such work shall not, however, exceed the scope of the work done by Tenant in originally constructing the Building. Base Monthly Rental due and payable hereunder shall be temporarily abated during such restoration period in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of Premises is impaired. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the square footage of the Building is taken or sold under such threat, Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date that the condemning authority takes possession by delivery of written notice of such election within twenty (20) days after Landlord has been notified of the taking or, in the absence thereof, within twenty (20) days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession.

20.3 No Apportionment of Award. No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, it being agreed and understood that Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award for any partial or entire taking. Tenant assigns to Landlord its interest in any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Tenant arising in or to the same or any part thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Landlord any interest in or require Tenant to assign to Landlord any separate award made to Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s personal property, trade fixtures or machinery for the interruption of Tenant’s business, or its moving costs, or for the loss of its goodwill. In addition, Tenant will have the right to make a separate claim in the condemnation proceeding for (a) the taking of the unamortized or undepreciated value of any leasehold improvements that Tenant has the right to remove at the end of the Lease Term and that Tenant elects not to remove, (b) loss of goodwill, and (c) any other amount in addition to the foregoing, so long as any such claim does not reduce the amount of the award payable to Landlord.

20.4 Temporary Taking. No temporary taking of the Premises shall terminate this Lease, but Tenant shall have the right to xxxxx Rent in proportion to the degree to which Tenant’s use of the Premises is impaired during any such period. Any award made to Tenant by reason of such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Tenant and Landlord shall not be entitled to share therein. Each party agrees to execute and deliver to the other all instruments that may be required to effectuate the provisions of this Section.

20.5 Sale Under Threat of Condemnation. A sale made in good faith by Landlord to any authority having the power of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed a taking under the power of eminent domain for all purposes of this Section.

ARTICLE 21. SURRENDER OF LEASE

21.1 Surrender of Lease. The voluntary or other surrender of its interest in this Lease by Tenant or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work a merger, and shall, at the election of Landlord, either terminate all or any existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as an assignment to Landlord of any or all of such subleases or subtenancies. Landlord shall exercise its election within 30 days of any such surrender or cancellation.

ARTICLE 22. ATTORNEYS’ FEES

22.1 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party institutes or is made a party to any action or proceeding to enforce or interpret this Lease, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover all costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such action or proceeding, or any appeal or enforcement of such action or proceeding.

ARTICLE 23. SALE OF THE PREMISES BY LANDLORD.

23.1 Sale of Premises. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord may assign, in whole or in part, Landlord’s interest in this Lease and may sell all or part of the real estate of which the Premises are a part (the “Real Property”). Should Landlord elect to sell the Real Property, Landlord agrees to notify Tenant of its intent to do so. Landlord’s willingness to notify Tenant is to be considered a courtesy notice only and not an offer to sell, or an obligation of any form on the part of Landlord to sell the Real Property to Tenant. This courtesy notice is not to be construed as an option, an offer to negotiate, a right of first refusal, or any other form of agreement that would obligate Landlord to pursue a sale of the Real Property to Tenant or in any manner prohibit Landlord from its rights to sell all or part of the Real Property as it chooses.

ARTICLE 24. QUIET ENJOYMENT

24.1. Quiet Enjoyment. If Tenant is not in breach (after notice and the expiration of the applicable cure period) under the material covenants made in this Lease, Landlord covenants that Tenant shall have peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Premises without hindrance on the part of Landlord. Landlord will defend Tenant in the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Premises against claims of all persons.

ARTICLE 25. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE

25.1 Tenant Estoppel Certificate. Tenant shall at any time during the term of this Lease, within 10 business days of written notice from Landlord, execute and deliver to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect or, if modified, stating the nature of such modification. Tenant’s statement shall include other details requested by Landlord, such as the date to which Rent and other charges are paid, Tenant’s knowledge concerning any uncured defaults with respect to Landlord’s obligations under this Lease and the nature of such defaults if they are claimed, and such other matters as Landlord may reasonably request. Any such statement may be relied upon conclusively by any purchaser or lender having an interest in the Premises. Tenant’s failure to deliver such statements within such time shall be conclusive upon the Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, except as and to the extent any modification has been represented by Landlord, and that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord’s performance, and that not more than 1 month’s Rent has been paid in advance.

25.2 Tenant Financial Statements. In the event Tenant ceases to be required to file annual financial statements with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, Tenant shall provide

Landlord a copy of the audited financial statements that have been provided to the SEC or, in the event Tenant is no longer required to deliver such financial statements to the SEC, year-end financial statements, including balance sheets and income statements, reflecting Tenant’s current financial condition for such fiscal year that have been audited by a nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants. Tenant represents and warrants that all financial statements, records and information furnished by Tenant to Landlord in connection with this Lease are true, correct and complete in all material respects.

ARTICLE 26. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT

26.1 Subordination of Lease. This Lease and Tenant’s rights under this Lease are subject and subordinate to any Mortgage, ground lease, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements, or extensions thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Premises. The provisions of this Section shall be self-operative, and no further instrument of subordination shall be required. In confirmation of such subordination, however, Tenant shall within 10 business days execute and deliver any instruments that Landlord, the holder of any Mortgage, or the Landlord of any ground lease may request to evidence such subordination. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver any such instruments, Tenant irrevocably constitutes and appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver such instruments.

26.2 Attornment to Lender. If the holder of any Mortgage, or the Landlord of any ground lease affecting the Premises, shall hereafter succeed, by foreclosure or otherwise, to the rights of Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall attorn to and recognize such successor as Tenant’s Landlord under this Lease, and shall promptly execute and deliver any instruments that may be necessary to evidence such attornment, and Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney in fact to execute and deliver such instruments on behalf of Tenant should Tenant refuse or fail to do so. Upon such attornment, this Lease shall continue in effect as a direct lease between such successor Landlord and Tenant upon and subject to all of the provisions of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant’s agreement both to subordinate and to attorn, as set forth in this Article, is contingent upon Tenant’s receipt of a nondisturbance agreement from the holder of any encumbrance placed against the Premises, in a recordable, commercially reasonable form or in the holder’s standard form, providing that in the event of any foreclosure, sale under a power of sale, ground or master lease termination, or transfer in lieu of any of the foregoing, or the exercise of any other remedy under any such encumbrance, but subject to such holder’s form exceptions, or other reasonable exceptions: (i) Tenant’s use, possession, and enjoyment of the Premises will not be disturbed and this Lease will continue in full force and effect so long as Tenant is not in default; and (ii) this Lease will automatically become a lease directly between any successor to Landlord’s interest, as landlord, and Tenant, as if that successor were the landlord originally named in the lease.

ARTICLE 27. HOLDING OVER

27.1 Holding Over. If Tenant should remain in possession of the Premises after the expiration of the term of this Lease without executing a new lease, then such holding over shall be construed as a tenancy from month to month, subject to all the conditions, provisions and obligations of this Lease insofar as they are applicable to a month to month tenancy, including the provisions of Article 3, except that the Base Monthly Rental shall be one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Base Monthly Rental last due, payable monthly in advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Tenant fails to vacate the Premises or Tenant fulfills less than all of its material obligations hereunder at the end of the Lease Term, Tenant also shall be liable for all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of the latter’s inability to deliver possession of the Premises or any portion thereof to any other person.

ARTICLE 28. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION

28.1 Mortgagee Protection. In the event of any default on the part of Landlord, Tenant agrees to give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of trust or mortgage covering the Premises whose address shall have been furnished to the Tenant and shall offer such beneficiary or mortgagee a reasonable opportunity to cure such default (such cure period not to exceed 90 days after receipt of such notice) before Tenant shall attempt to exercise any other remedy.

ARTICLE 29. LIABILITY OF SUCCESSORS

29.1 Successor’s Liability. The covenants and conditions herein contained shall, subject to the provisions as to assignment, apply to and bind the heir, successors, executors, administrators, and permitted assigns of all the parties hereto and all of the parties hereto shall be jointly and severally liable for the covenants contained herein.

ARTICLE 30. EASEMENTS

30.1. Easements. Landlord reserves the right, from time to time, to grant such easements, rights and dedications that Landlord deems necessary or desirable, and to cause the recordation of parcel maps and restrictions, so long as such easements, rights, dedications, maps and restrictions do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Tenant or any of the provisions of this Lease. Tenant shall sign any documents or instruments to accomplish the foregoing upon request of Landlord, and failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of this Lease. Tenant irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant’s special attorney in fact to execute and deliver such documents or instructions on behalf of Tenant should Tenant refuse or fail to do so.

ARTICLE 31. GROUND LEASE

31.1 Ground Lease. The land underlying the Building is not owned by Landlord and is subject to that certain Ground Lease (the “Ground Lease”) dated as of December 10, 2003, by and between Landlord, as lessee, and the University of Utah, as ground lessor (“Ground Lessor”). Tenant hereby agrees that this Lease is subject to, and subordinate to, the Ground Lease. All rent, fees, dues and other expenses (“Ground Lease Fees”) imposed by the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease shall be the sole responsibility of Tenant. Tenant shall pay at least 20 days before due any and all Ground Lease Fees to Landlord as Additional Rent. Each payment shall be made promptly on demand throughout the term of this Lease and shall be paid without deduction or offset. Tenant shall faithfully observe and comply with the provisions of the Ground Lease. Tenant shall not have any rights or interests in the Premises or under this Lease greater than those held by the Landlord as the tenant under the Ground Lease, or impose any duty or obligation on the Landlord greater than those imposed on it under the Ground Lease. Any violation by Tenant of any of the provisions of the Ground Lease shall be a default under this Lease. Tenant has received a copy of the Ground Lease prior to the execution of this Lease, and such receipt is acknowledged hereby. Tenant acknowledges that nothing in this Lease obligates Landlord to extend the term of this Lease under the Ground Lease, and upon the termination of the Ground Lease, the term of this Lease shall automatically terminate.

ARTICLE 32. QUITCLAIM DEED

Landlord agrees that Remedial Work which complies with applicable Hazardous Materials Laws shall be deemed adequately performed and further agrees not to unreasonably delay Tenant from resuming operations in such affected areas.

34.1.1 Tenant shall have no right to exercise an option: (i) during the period commencing with the giving of any notice of default and continuing until said default is cured, (ii) during the period of time any Rent is due and unpaid, or (iii) in the event that Landlord has given three or more notices of separate monetary or material non-monetary defaults, whether or not the defaults are cured, during the 12 months immediately preceding the exercise of the option.

34.1.2 The period of time within which an option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise an option because of paragraph 34.1.1.

34.1.3 An option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Tenant’s due and timely exercise of the option, if, after such exercise and prior to the commencement of the extended term, (i) Tenant fails to pay Rent for a period of 30 days after such Rent becomes due, or (ii) if Tenant commits a default under this Lease and such default is continuing after the expiration of the applicable cure periods set forth in Section 17.1.

36.2.1 Rent—First Option. The Base Monthly Rental payable by Tenant during the first option period shall be 100% of the fair market rent for the Premises at the commencement date of such option period. The Base Monthly Rental payable by Tenant would continue to be increased as of the expiration of every year of the option period commencing on the anniversary of the commencement of such option period by an amount equal to 2.75% of the Base Monthly Rental for the preceding year.

36.2.2 Rent—Second Option. The Base Monthly Rental payable by Tenant during the first year of the second option period shall be 100% of the fair market rent for the Premises at the commencement date of such option period.

34.2.3 Fair Market Rent. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the fair market rent of the Premises for the extension period within 30 days after the Tenant has notified Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of the option, Landlord and Tenant shall each select, within 15 days of such notification, an appraiser who must be a qualified MAI appraiser with at least 5 years experience appraising commercial properties to determine said fair market rental value. If one party fails to so designate an appraiser within the time required, the determination of fair market rental value of the one appraiser who has been designated by the other party within the time required shall be binding on both parties. The appraisers shall submit their determinations of fair market rental value to both parties within 30 days after their selection. If the difference between the two determinations is 10% or less of the higher appraisal, then the average between the determinations shall be the fair market rental value of the Premises. If said difference

is greater than 10%, then the two appraisers shall within 15 days of the date the second determination is submitted to the parties designate a third appraiser who must also be a qualified MAI appraiser.

Such determination shall bind both of the parties and shall establish the fair market rental value of the Premises. Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its appraiser and shall pay equal shares of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser. Fair market rent for the purposes of this Lease shall mean the then prevailing rent for premises comparable in size, quality and location to the demised Premises, leased on terms comparable to the terms contained in this Lease.

ARTICLE 35. Right to Purchase

35.1 Purchase Option. Landlord hereby grants to Tenant the exclusive option to purchase the Premises for 115% of the fair market value of the Premises (the “Purchase Option”), subject to the following provisions:

35.1.1 Tenant shall have no right to exercise the Purchase Option: (i) during the period commencing with the giving of any notice of default and continuing until said default is cured, and (ii) during the period of time any Rent is due and unpaid.

35.1.2 Such Purchase Option must be exercised, if at all, by Tenant delivering to Landlord notice thereof (the “Exercise Notice”) at least 12 months prior to the expiration or termination of the initial Lease Term. If Tenant does not timely deliver the Exercise Notice, the option herein granted shall terminate; time being of the essence with respect to the delivering thereof. If Tenant timely delivers an Exercise Notice, then Landlord shall sell to Tenant, and Tenant shall purchase from Landlord, the Premises for 115% of the fair market value of the Premises. The Premises shall be sold in its then-current, as-is, with all faults conditions and without any representation and warranty, expressed or implied, whatsoever. The closing of the sale transaction shall occur upon the expiration of the initial Lease Term. Upon the termination of the Purchase Option herein granted, (a) Tenant shall execute and deliver such documents as Landlord may request to evidence the termination thereof, and (b) Landlord may execute, file and record an instrument evidencing the termination of the Purchase Option herein granted. If Tenant fails to execute and deliver such documents, then Landlord may do so. Tenant hereby appoints Landlord its attorney in fact for such purpose, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

35.1.3 Fair Market Value. If Landlord and Tenant cannot agree on the fair market value of the Premises within 30 days after the Tenant has notified Landlord of Tenant’s exercise of the Purchase Option, Landlord and Tenant shall each select, within 15 days of such notification, an appraiser who must be a qualified MAI appraiser with at least 5 years experience appraising commercial properties to determine said fair market value. If one party fails to so designate an appraiser within the time required, the determination of fair market value of the one appraiser who has been designated by the other party within the time required shall be binding on both parties. The appraisers shall submit their determinations of fair market value to both parties within 30 days after their selection. If the difference between the two determinations is 10% or less of the higher appraisal, then the average between the determinations shall be the fair market value of the Premises. If said difference is greater than 10%, then the two appraisers shall within 15 days of the date the second determination is submitted to the parties designate a third appraiser who must also be a qualified MAI appraiser. The sole responsibility of the third appraiser will be to determine which of the determinations made by the first two appraisers is most accurate. The third appraiser shall have no right to propose a middle ground or any modification of either of the determinations made by the first two appraisers. The third appraiser’s choice shall be submitted to the

parties within 20 days after his or her selection. Such determination shall bind both of the parties and shall establish the fair market value of the Premises. Each party shall pay equal shares of the fees and expenses of the third appraiser. Fair market value for the purposes of this Lease shall mean the then prevailing fair market value for premises comparable in size, quality and location to the demised Premises, and shall be based on the assumption that Tenant has exercised both of its options to renew the Lease Term in accordance with Section 34 at the then fair market rental rate.
