THIS LEASE, made and entered into this 30th day of July, 1996, by and between XXXXX LAND LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, a Colorado limited liability company, hereinafter referred to as "Landlord," and DISPLAYTECH, INC., a Colorado corporation, hereinafter referred to as "Tenant."
WITNESSETH:
In consideration of the covenants, terms, conditions, agreements, and payments as hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
1. PREMISES LEASED; DESCRIPTION. Landlord hereby leases unto Tenant the following described premises containing approximately 30,000 square feet of building floor space measured to the outside of the walls, including overhangs, canopies and loading docks, and to approximately 1/2 the thickness of common walls; commonly known as 2602 Clover Basin Suite A, in the City of Longmont, County of Boulder, State of Colorado, a more detailed description of which is Xxx 0, Xx. Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X, Xxxx 0 and 6, Replat A, County of Boulder, State of Colorado, a diagram of which is attached as Exhibit A (hereinafter referred to as the "premises"); the leasing of which is made according to the terms of this Agreement; together with all appurtenances thereto, and all fixtures attached thereto, in present condition, and together with nonexclusive reasonable access across any other land owned by Landlord as may be required for use of the premises by Tenant, with such access to be on such roadways, sidewalks, and other common areas of which the premises are a part, or of any such adjacent lands owned by Landlord, as Landlord may from time to time designate.
2. PRESENT CONDITION OF PROPERTY. Tenant has examined, and accepts the building, improvements, and any fixtures on the premises, in present condition, subject to the construction of Tenant Improvements as detailed on the plans and specifications labeled Exhibit "B," attached hereto and made a part hereof by reference. No representation, statement, or warranty, express or implied, has been made by or on behalf of Landlord as to the condition of the premises, or as to the use that may be made of same. Landlord shall be liable for any defect in the premises for a period of one year from the Commencement Date. Tenant shall assume the risk of future governmental limitations on the use of the premises.
3. TERM.
3.1 Initial Term. The term of this lease shall commence at 12:00 midnight on December 1, 1996 (the "Commencement Date"), and unless terminated as herein provided for, shall end at 12:00 midnight on November 30, 2003. The Commencement Date as set forth in this Paragraph 3.1 shall be subject to those adjustments of the Commencement Date, if any, set forth in Paragraph 3.3 which relate to the performance of construction on the premises.,
3.2 Option to Extend. Upon full and complete performance of all the terms, covenants, and conditions herein contained by Tenant and payment of all rental due under the terms hereof, Tenant shall be given the option to renew this lease for two (2) additional terms of thirty-six (36) months each. Each such option shall be exercisable only by delivery of Tenant's signed written notice of extension to Landlord not less than 150 days prior to the expiration of the then-existing lease term. In the event of such exercise, this lease shall be deemed to be extended for the additional period pursuant to all the terms and conditions set forth herein, including (but not as a limitation) those provisions for increase of the base rental set forth in Paragraph 4.2.1. In the event of exercise of said Option, any funds held by Landlord pursuant hereto shall continue to be so held subject to the terms
3.3 Tenant Improvement Construction. The Commencement Date of this lease shall be delayed until the substantial completion of the tenant improvements described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and delivery of possession to Tenant, if such occurs after the Commencement
1
Date, as follows: If for any reason Landlord does not substantially complete such construction prior to the Commencement Date, such failure will not affect the validity of this lease, but in such case Tenant shall not be obligated to pay rent until such construction is substantially completed and possession of the premises is delivered to Tenant. However, in the event the Class 1000 clean room is sub contracted to a third party, at the Tenant's sole cost and expense, the Landlord shall not be responsible for the completion of the Class 1000 clean room nor shall there be any delay in the Commencement Date, providing all other tenant improvements have been completed by Landlord. In the event the Landlord designs and constructs the Class 1000 clean room, at the Tenant's sole cost and expense, and the Tenant has agreed to the design and specifications on or before August 15, 1996 and the Class 1000 clean room is not complete on the Commencement Date, the Commencement Date shall be adjusted as provided herein. In the event Tenant has not approved the design and specifications on or before August 19, 1996, the Commencement Date shall not be adjusted as provided herein. Landlord shall provide written notice to Tenant if Landlord becomes aware of any condition that Landlord shall provide written notice to Tenant if Landlord becomes aware of any condition that will delay The Commencement date more than one week. Provided however, if Landlord shall not have substantially completed and delivered possession of the premises within sixty (60) days after the Commencement Date, Tenant may, at Tenant's option, upon notice in writing to Landlord delivered within ten (10) days after the end of the 60-day period, cancel this lease. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for failure to substantially complete construction prior to any date or dates. Tenant's only remedy shall be cancellation of the lease.
Should construction of the tenant improvements be completed to such an extent as to permit the issuance of a partial certificate of occupancy by the governing authority, Tenant may occupy the portion of the premises so permitted prior to (or after) the Commencement Date and shall pay rent for the occupied portion, prorated in proportion to the number of square feet of building space occupied, beginning on date of delivery of possession. Rent adjustments shall be similarly prorated. In no event shall Tenant take possession prior to satisfaction of the requirements for Tenant's insurance set forth below.
The Tenant shall pay the operating expenses defined in Paragraphs 4.3, 5 and 18.1, herein for the Premises, from the date of issuance of a partial certificate of occupancy, excluding the construction of the Class 1000 clean room.
3.4 Delivery of Possession. Tenant shall be entitled to possession of the premises at noon on the Commencement Date, as defined in Paragraph 3.1. Tenant may, with approval by Landlord in its sole discretion, have access to the premises during tenant improvement construction for the purpose of moving in Tenant-owned furniture, fixtures, equipment, inventory and the installation or construction of one Class 1000 clean room on Exhibit B. This access and the items so moved in shall not in any way impede the construction of the tenant improvements, nor shall Landlord, its agent, employees, subcontractors, or any other person on the premises whether invited or not invited, be liable for the protection, care or security of Tenant owned items. This paragraph shall not be construed so as to permit Tenant to occupy the premises prior to the satisfaction of all requirements for Tenant's insurance set forth below.
4. RENT. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, at the address of Landlord as herein set forth, the following as rental for the premises:
4.1 Base Rental.
The minimum base rental for the full term hereof shall be One Million Eight Hundred Seventy-Six Thousand Five Hundred Seventy three and 20/100THS U.S. Dollars ($1,876,573.23), payable in advance on the first day of each month during the term hereof in monthly installments of Eighteen Thousand Seven Hundred thirty-eight and 72/100THS U.S.Dollars ($18,738.72) on the
2
Commencement Date December 1, 1997 and Twenty-three Thousand Five Hundred Nineteen and 97/100THS U.S. Dollars ($23,519.97) effective September 1, 1997 through November 30, 2001 and Twenty-one Thousand Seven hundred Eighty-one and 25/100THS U.S. Dollars ($21,781.25) effective, December 1, 2001 through November 30, 2003.
4.2 Escalation of Base Rental.
4.2.1 On the first anniversary of the commencement date of this lease, and annually thereafter, the base rental payable by Tenant may be increased to an amount determined by multiplying the basic monthly rental by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the most recent Consumer Price Index figure, as hereinafter defined, published prior to the Commencement Date, and the numerator of which shall be the most recent Consumer Price Index figure published prior to the particular anniversary date; provided, however, that in no event shall the rent for any month after such anniversary be less than the rent for the month immediately preceding such anniversary. As used herein, the term "Consumer Price Index" shall mean the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, All Items, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx (0000-00 = 100), or the successor of that Index, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. Should Landlord lack sufficient data to make the proper determination on the date of any adjustment, Tenant shall continue to pay the monthly rent payable immediately prior to the adjustment date. As soon as Landlord obtains the necessary data, Landlord shall determine the rent payable from and after such adjustment date and shall notify Tenant of the adjustment in writing. Should the monthly rent for the period following the adjustment date exceed the amount previously paid by Tenant for that period, Tenant shall forthwith pay the difference to Landlord. Should the Consumer Price Index as above described cease to be published, a reasonably comparable successor index shall be selected by Landlord. If Tenant objects to the successor index, the dispute will be resolved and a successor index designated by arbitration pursuant to the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association.
4.2.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the increase in base rental for each year shall be not less than three percent (3%) nor more than six percent (6%) of the base rental for the previous year, each year for such purposes to commence on the anniversary of the Commencement Date.
4.2.3 Landlord may in its sole discretion, waive the escalation provided for in Paragraph 4.2.1 or Paragraph 4.2.2 for any particular year, years, or part of a year. No such waiver shall preclude Landlord from applying the escalation to any subsequent year or part of a year, and from making the subsequent application as if all subsequent escalationis had been duly made to the maximum permissible extent.
4.3 Maintenance Expense for Grounds, Snow Removal, Exterior and HVAC. Tenant shall pay the cost of having Landlord maintain the HVAC systems and the exterior of the premises including parking lots, green areas, sidewalks, entrances, and corridors (but not the exterior surfaces of the building, other than glass). Cost of maintaining such areas shall include, but shall not be limited to, repairs, preventative maintenance, HVAC filters and compressors, sealing, striping, lawn mowing, snow removal (Tenant is responsible for snow removal of less than 2"), gardening, shrub care and replacements, lawn watering, parking area maintenance, electricity for lighting, sign maintenance, depreciation of equipment used for the foregoing purposes and other costs related to the premises or common areas. Landlord shall perform such maintenance and charge the cost thereof to Tenant, which shall be paid as additional rent within 10 days after delivery of Landlord's invoice. Landlord shall keep reasonable records of such cost, which shall be available for Tenant's inspection during normal business hours. Certain items of such maintenance (such as landscape maintenance and snow removal) are performed by Landlord on numerous areas owned and/or maintained by Landlord, in addition to the premises, and the cost thereof cannot be precisely ascribed to the
3
premises. As to such services which are performed on areas in addition to the premises, the cost for all areas so serviced shall be allocated to the premises in proportion to the square feet of building floor space in the premises compared to the square feet of building floor space in the entire area to which such services are provided.
For the first year of the lease, Landlord agrees that the total of the maintenance fees referred to in this paragraph will not exceed $0.90 per square foot annually. Tenant agrees the maintenance of the HVAC systems shall specifically exclude the mechanical systems for the proposed Class 100 and Class 1000 clean room which will be serviced by Landlord at a mutually acceptable rate or by a certified subcontractor of Tenant. The controllable expenses, on a cumulative basis, shall not increase more than five (5) percent per annum.
4.4 Private Security Service. Landlord may, in its sole discretion, engage a private security service to be licensed and bonded, as an independent contractor, to patrol an area which includes the premises. If Landlord does so employ a private security service, the cost thereof shall be treated in the same manner as Maintenance Expense and paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under the same provisions as are applicable to Maintenance Expense.
Landlord shall have absolutely no obligation to engage a private security service and shall not be liable for any damages or loss which might have been averted had a private security service been engaged. If Landlord does engage a private security service, Landlord shall not be liable for any damages or loss which may result from actions, inactionis, non-performance or quality of performance by the security service. If the Tenant desires a higher level of security services than Landlord provides, or wishes to obtain an agreement that there will be liability for actions, inactionis, non-performance or quality of performance by a security service, Tenant may itself engage such security service as Tenant chooses, at Tenant's sole expense.
Nothing herein shall limit any action by Tenant against any person or entity providing private security service, provided that Landlord shall not be party to, or liable for any judgment entered in such an action, as a defendant, cross defendant, third-party defendant, or otherwise. Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against any loss, liability or claim arising out of any action brought by Tenant against any person or entity providing private security service. The obligation to indemnify shall include payment of Landlord's attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the claim covered by the indemnity and in enforcing the obligation to indemnify.
4.5 Late Charges. Tenant will pay a late charge equal to four percent of any monthly rental payment or other payment not paid within five (5) days of when due, which payment shall in addition to any interest elsewhere provided for.
4.6 Security Deposit. Landlord acknowledges receipt of the sum of Thirty Thousand and 00/100THS U.S. Dollars ($30,000.00) paid by Tenant upon the execution hereof. In addition, the Tenant shall pay to Landlord on December 1, 1997 the sum of Twelve Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100ths U.S. Dollars ($12,500.00) for a total security deposit of Forty-two Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100THS U.S. Dollars ($42,500.00), to be retained by Landlord as security for the performance of all of the terms and conditions of this lease Agreement to be performed by Tenant, including payment of all rental due under the terms hereof. Landlord shall not owe Tenant any interest on the deposit. At Landlord's election, deductions may be made by Landlord from the amount so retained for the reasonable cost of repairs to the premises which should have been performed by Tenant, for any rental payment or other sum delinquent under the terms hereof, and for any sum used by Landlord in any manner to cure any default in the performance of Tenant under the terms of this lease. In the event deductions are so made during the rental term, upon notice by Landlord, Tenant shall redeposit such amounts so expended so as to maintain the security deposit in the amount as herein provided for, within 10 days after receipt of such written demand from Landlord. Nothing herein contained shall limit the liability of Tenant as to any
4
repairs or maintenance of the premises; and nothing herein shall limit the obligation of Tenant promptly to pay all sums otherwise due under this lease and to comply with all the terms and conditions hereof. The security deposit, less any sums withheld by Landlord pursuant to the terms hereof, shall be repaid to Tenant within sixty days after the date of termination of the lease.
4.7 Proration of Rent for Partial Months. If the lease term begins on other than the first day of a month, base rent and additional rent from such date until the first day of the next succeeding calendar month shall be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days in such calendar month and shall be payable in advance. If the lease term terminates on other than the last day of the calendar month, rent from the first day of such calendar month until such termination date shall be prorated on the basis of the actual number of days in such month, and shall be payable in advance.
5. TAXES—REAL PROPERTY—PAID BY TENANT—PROTEST. Tenant shall pay as additional rent, all real estate taxes and assessments, as shall, from and after the date hereof, be assessed upon the premises and any appurtenances or improvements thereto. Tenant shall pay one-twelfth (1/12) of such estimated additional rent, in advance, with each monthly rental payment. Landlord shall reasonably estimate such taxes and advise Tenant in writing of the amount to be paid each month. Such payments shall be separately accounted for by Landlord, (and may be deposited with any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust on the premises) and shall be used to make prompt payment of such taxes as they come due. If the estimated payments made by Tenant are not sufficient to fully pay such taxes as they come due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord any amount necessary to make up the deficiency within ten (10) days of notice from Landlord. If the estimated payments made by the Tenant are in excess of the tax obligation, Landlord shall credit the excess to the Tenant's account within ten (10) business days of learning the Tenant has overpaid the taxes. Landlord shall have no obligation to pay any interest to Tenant on such additional rent, but Landlord shall give Tenant an annual accounting showing credit for such payments made by Tenant, and debits for payments made by Landlord or Landlord's lender. If Tenant fails to make any required payment to Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be required to, pay any such tax and shall become entitled to repayment from Tenant without demand, together with interest thereon as elsewhere provided. The real estate taxes and assessments for the year in which the term of this lease shall begin, as well as for the year in which the lease shall end, shall be apportioned so that Tenant shall pay only the portions that correspond with the portions of such years as are within such lease term. In the event that the premises are assessed for tax purposes as a part of a larger parcel, the tax on the entire parcel shall be prorated in proportion to the number of square feet of building floor space on each portion of the entire parcel.
Upon written request from Tenant, Landlord shall protest the tax assessment on the premises, to the extent that Landlord, in good faith, believes that such protest is justifiable and likely to be successful. In the event of any such protest Tenant shall nevertheless pay to Landlord the taxes as assessed, and Tenant shall be entitled to the appropriate share of any refund. Tenant shall not protest any real property tax assessment on the premises.
6. TAXES—TENANT'S PERSONAL PROPERTY—PAID BY TENANT. Tenant shall be responsible for and timely pay any and all personal property taxes assessed against any furniture, fixtures, equipment and items of a similar nature installed and/or located in or about the premises by Tenant.
7. UTILITIES—TENANT TO OBTAIN AND PAY FOR. Landlord shall not be required to furnish to Tenant any utility services of any kind, such as but not limited to, water, hot water, heat, gas, electricity, light, telephone, cable TV and power. Tenant shall obtain and pay all charges for gas, electricity, light, heat, power, water (and lawn watering), and telephone, cable TV or other communication services other utilities used, rendered, or supplied, upon or in connection with the premises. Tenant irrevocably appoints Landlord as Tenant's attorney-in-fact solely for the purpose of
5
terminating Tenant's account with any provider of such utilities, if the premises are abandoned by Tenant or if the lease is terminated.
8. HOLDING OVER. If, after expiration of the term of this lease, Tenant shall remain in possession of the premises and continue to pay rent without a written agreement as to such possession, then Tenant shall be deemed a month-to-month Tenant and the rental rate during such holdover tenancy shall be equivalent to one and one-quarter times the monthly rental paid for the last month of tenancy under this lease. Such month-to-month tenancy may be terminated by the Landlord at noon on any day which is more than twenty-nine (29) days after date of delivery of Landlord's written notice of termination to Tenant.
9. MODIFICATIONS OR EXTENSIONS. No holding over by Tenant shall operate to renew or extend this lease without the written consent of Landlord. No modification of this lease shall be binding unless endorsed hereon or otherwise written and signed by the respective parties.
10. ALTERATION—CHANGES AND ADDITIONS—RESPONSIBILITY—NO HOLES IN ROOF—NO NEW EQUIPMENT ON ROOF. Subject to Landlord's consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, that any alterations requested by Tenant do not materially negatively affect the integrity of the leased premises, in Landlord's sole discretion, Tenant may, during the term of this lease, at Tenant's expense, erect inside partitions, add to existing electric power service, add telephone outlets or other communication services, add light fixtures, install additional heating and/or air conditioning or make such other changes or alterations as Tenant may desire, provided that prior to commencement of any such work, Tenant shall submit to Landlord a set of fully detailed working drawings and specifications for the proposed alteration, prepared by a licensed architect or engineer unless the work performed by Tenant does not exceed $2,500.00 and does not affect the structural integrity of the building, HVAC system, main electrical supply or the telecommunication cabling. If Tenant so requests, Landlord will have the drawings and specifications prepaid for Tenant, at Tenant's expense, utilizing Landlord's in-house staff. Tenant will pay Landlord's customary hourly charges for such services, as additional rent, to be paid within 10 days after delivery of invoice. In particular, but not as a limitation, the working drawings must fully detail changes to mechanical, wiring and electrical, lighting, plumbing and HVAC systems to Landlord's satisfaction. Landlord may refuse to consent to the alterations because of the inadequacy of the drawings and specifications to meet a standard to which is reasonably required to obtain a building permit or customary in the industry. Tenant may not commence the alterations until Landlord's written consent has been given. Any additions or alterations requested by Tenant of the telecommunication or data transmission equipment, facilities, lines or outlets on the premises shall be performed only with Landlord's consent, and only by Landlord or Landlord's contractor. Such additions and alterations shall be at Tenant's expense. At the termination of this lease, Tenant shall be responsible for all expenses necessary to return the telecommunication and data transmission equipment, facilities, lines and outlets on the premises to their condition before such additions or alterations were made. Landlord may withhold its consent to new openings in the roof or placement of additional equipment on the roof unless Landlord, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, is satisfied that the risk of increased leakage or risk of more frequent repairs or maintenance of the roof is acceptable to Landlord. Any new or altered opening in the roof, or placement of additional equipment thereon, shall be considered an alteration which requires the prior written consent of Landlord. If within ten (10) business days after such plans and specifications are submitted by Tenant to Landlord for such approval, Landlord shall have not given Tenant notice of disapproval, stating the reason for such disapproval, such plans and specifications shall be considered approved by Landlord and it shall be deemed the Tenant shall have ownership of the tenant improvements and shall not be required to remove the subject improvements on termination of the Lease. At the time of approval for such alterations Landlord and Tenant shall then agree in writing upon the ownership of the alterations installed and agree upon whether removal will be required at the end of the lease term. Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to furnish adequate bond or other security acceptable to Landlord for
6
performance of and payment for the work to be performed. All work done by Tenant shall conform to appropriate city, county and state building codes and health standards and OSHA standards and Tenant shall be responsible for obtaining and paying for building permits.
If any such work done by Tenant causes damage to the structural portion, exterior finish or roof of the premises, then the costs of repair of such damage, and of all further maintenance and repairs to such structural portion, exterior finish or roof during the term of the lease shall thereafter be the responsibility of Tenant. Notwithstanding the above, if the work requested by Tenant has been approved by Landlord and has been performed by Landlord or Landlord's subcontractor, the Tenant shall not be responsible for the costs of repair or damage, and of all further maintenance and repairs to such structural portion, exterior finish or roof.
Neither Landlord's right of entry, nor any actual inspection by Landlord, nor Landlord's actual knowledge of any alteration accomplished or in progress shall constitute a waiver of Landlord's rights concerning alterations by Tenant.
11. MECHANIC'S LIENS. Tenant shall pay all costs for construction done by it or caused to be done by it on the premises as permitted by this lease. Tenant shall keep the building, other improvements and land of which the premises are a part free and clear of all mechanic's liens resulting from construction by or for Tenant. Tenant shall have the right to contest the correctness or validity of any such lien if, immediately on demand by Landlord, Tenant deposits with Landlord and/or any appropriate court or title insurance company a bond or sum of money sufficient to allow issuance of title insurance against the lien and/or to comply with the statutory requirements for discharge of the lien found in § 00-00-000 and § 131, Colorado Revised Statutes, or any successor statutory provision. Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant's contractor(s), subcontractors and materialmen to furnish to both Tenant and Landlord adequate lien waivers on work or materials paid for, in connection with all periodic or final payments, by endorsement on checks, making of joint checks, or otherwise, and Landlord shall have the right to review invoices prior to payment. Landlord reserves the right to post notices on the premises that Landlord is not responsible for payment of work performed and that Landlord's interest is not subject to any lien.
12. UNIFORM SIGNS; NO "FOR RENT" SIGNS. It is Landlord's intent to maintain uniformity of signs throughout the area where signs may be controlled by Landlord. Tenant shall place no signs on the premises (except inside Tenant's portion of the building on the premises) without prior written consent Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Tenant may not put any signs on the premises indicating that the same are for rent, or available for assignment or sublease, and may put no signs of real estate brokers on the premises.

The deductible amount shall not exceed $10,000. Landlord shall pay any premium on such policy and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for one hundred percent (100%) of the insurance premium paid by Landlord. Such insurance premiums owed by Tenant shall be considered additional rent and shall be due within ten (10) days after Landlord has delivered an invoice for the same. Landlord may purchase a single policy covering buildings and grounds in addition to the premises. In that event, the premium shall be allocated among the various covered buildings and the premises in proportion to the number of square feet of building floor space in each area.
18.2 General Liability Insurance. Tenant agrees to carry comprehensive general liability insurance in the minimum total amount of ONE MILLION Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each occurrence of bodily injury and ONE MILLION Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each occurrence of property damage. Tenant shall supply to Landlord certificates of insurance as provided in Paragraph 18.6. In the event Tenant fails to secure such insurance or to give evidence to Landlord of such insurance by depositing with Landlord certificates as provided below, Landlord may purchase such insurance in Tenant's name and charge Tenant the premiums therefor. Bills for the premiums therefor shall be deemed and paid as additional rent due within 10 days after delivery of invoice. The Landlord shall be an additional named insured on the policy.
18.3 Tenant Improvements. Tenant agrees to carry insurance covering all of Tenant's leasehold improvements, alterations, additions or improvements, trade fixtures, merchandise and personal property from time to time in, on or upon the premises, in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of such items from time to time during the term of this lease, providing protection against any peril included within an "All-Risk" policy, with a deductible amount not to exceed $10,000. Any policy proceeds shall be used for the repair or replacement of the property damaged or destroyed unless this lease shall cease and terminate due to destruction of the premises as provided below.
18.4. Other Insurance. Tenant agrees to carry reasonable insurance against such other hazards and in such amounts as the holder of any mortgage or deed of trust to which the lease is subordinate may reasonably require from time to time.
18.5 Waiver of Subrogation. Landlord and Tenant grant to each other on behalf of any insurer providing fire and extended insurance coverage to either of them covering the premises, improvements thereon, and contents thereof, a waiver of any right of subrogation or recovery of any payments of loss under such insurance, such waiver to be effective so long as each is empowered to grant such waiver under the terms of its insurance policy, and to give all necessary notice of such waiver to its insurance carriers.
18.6 Other Provisions Regarding Tenant's Insurance. All insurance required of Tenant in this lease shall be effected under enforceable policies issued by insurers of recognized good financial condition licensed to do business in this State.

Within fifteen (15) days after the premium on any policy shall become due and payable, Landlord shall be furnished with satisfactory evidence of its payment. To the extent obtainable, all policies shall contain an agreement that notwithstanding any act or negligence of Tenant which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance, such policies shall not be
9
canceled except upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Landlord, and that the coverage afforded thereby shall not be affected by the performance of any work in or about the premises.
If Tenant provides any insurance required of Tenant by this lease in the form of a blanket policy, Tenant shall furnish satisfactory proof that such blanket policy complies in all respects with the provisions of this lease, and that the coverage thereunder is at least equal to the coverage which would be provided under a separate policy covering only the premises.
18.7 Changes in Standard Policies. If the definition of insurance industry policy language relating to "All-Risk" insurance or other term changes, the insurance requirements hereunder shall be modified to conform to the existing insurance industry language; however, the dollar amount of the coverages required under this lease shall not be less than those existing at the time of the effective beginning date of this lease.
19. FIRE REGULATIONS—TENANT RESPONSIBILITY. It shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive responsibility to meet all fire regulations of any governmental unit having jurisdiction over the premises to the extent such regulations affect Tenant's operations, at Tenant's sole expense. Landlord warrants that the Premises meets current fire codes and regulations as of the Commencement Date.
20. REPLACEMENT OF BUILDING—CASUALTY DAMAGE. If the premises are damaged or destroyed by fire or other cause at any time after the date of commencement of this lease, Landlord shall proceed with due diligence to repair or restore the same to the same condition as existed before such damage or destruction, and as soon as possible thereafter will give possession to the Tenant of the premises without diminution or change of location. Provided, however, that in case of total destruction of the premises by fire, or in case the premises are so badly damaged that, in the opinion of the Landlord, it is not feasible to repair or rebuild the same, then, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this lease instead of rebuilding the improvements; provided, however, that Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of Landlord's intention to terminate, said notice to be served not later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence of the damage to the property.

In the event of any default other than failure to pay a sum of money, for which notice has been given as provided herein, which because of its nature can be cured but not within the period of grace heretofore allowed, then such default shall be deemed remedied, if the correction thereof shall have been commenced within said grace period or periods and shall, when commenced, be diligently prosecuted to completion.
23.10 Landlord Default. If Landlord is in default under any of its obligations and the default continues for thirty (30) days after written notice from Tenant (subject to extension pursuant to 23.9), Tenant may pursue all remedies at law or in equity. Tenant may, but shall not be required to, correct such default for the Landlord's account, and the expense shall be promptly paid within ten (10) days by Landlord; however, in no event shall Tenant have the right to rental abatement, offset of expenses against rental, or the right to terminate this lease, subject to Tenant's legal or equitable remedies.
Tenant may not offset any sum due or assertedly due from Landlord to Tenant against any sum due from Tenant to Landlord.
Tenant agrees that if Tenant obtains a judgment against Landlord arising out of Landlord's obligations under this lease excluding gross negligence or intentional acts of Landlord, such judgment may be satisfied by the execution and sale of Landlord's interest in the building the leased premises are leased hereby or the Landlord's other assets, not to exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), in aggregate. Landlord agrees in the event a judgment against Landlord, is obtained the Tenant shall be entitled to the equity and the income from the building the leased premises are leased hereby. Tenant may not seek execution against other property of Landlord, nor pursue any judgment, execution or other remedy against the partners or other owners of Landlord or any of their property. Immediately upon receipt of Landlord's written request, Tenant will release any property (other than the premises leased hereby) from the lien of any judgment obtained by Tenant against Landlord arising out of Landlord's obligations under this lease.
24. LANDLORD'S SECURITY INTEREST IN TENANT'S PERSONAL PROPERY; LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO REMOVE SAME. As security for its obligations under this lease, Tenant grants to Landlord a security interest in all the personal property and fixtures of Tenant now or subsequently
17
located upon the premises (the collateral), which interest shall attach to the collateral at such time (but not before) when Tenant fails to pay to Landlord any fixed sum of money due to Landlord pursuant to this lease and only after Landlord has given Tenant notice of the default and the default has remained uncured after the period allowed for cure. Concurrently with signature hereof (or at such later time when Landlord may demand same), Tenant will sign and deliver to landlord financing statements properly evidencing the security interest, in customary short form suitable for filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Colorado and with the Boulder County Clerk and Recorder. The financing statements shall not be filed prior to the date when the security interest attaches to the collateral. In the event of default by Tenant, and after attachment of the security interest to the collateral, Landlord may exercise all rights and remedies available to the holders of security interests under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Colorado.
Landlord shall not be obligated to exercise any such remedy, however, and at Landlord's sole election, Landlord may forego exercise of its rights under the security agreement and proceed to remove, or have the appropriate governmental agencies remove, all of Tenant's property from the premises and leave same on any public street or landfill at Tenant's sole risk. The cost of any such removal shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.
25. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AGAINST TENANT BY THIRD PARTIES; TENANT TO PAY LANDLORD'S FEES. In the event of any proceeding at law or in equity wherein Landlord, without being in default as to its covenants under the terms hereof, shall be made a party to any litigation by reason of Tenant's acts or business operations in the premises, or, in the event Landlord shall be required to commence any legal proceedings relating to the premises and Tenant's occupancy thereof and Tenant's relation thereto, Landlord shall be allowed and Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by Landlord, including reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and consultant's fees.
26. INDEMNIFICATION BY TENANT AND BY LANDLORD. The Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord of and from liability for damages or claims against Landlord, including costs, attorneys' fees and expenses of Landlord in defending against the same, on account of injuries to any person or property, if the injuries are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant, its agents, servants or employees, or any other person entering upon the premises under express or implied invitation of Tenant, excepting Landllord's agent's contractors, subcontractors or invitees or if such injuries are the result of the violation by Tenant, its agents, servants, or employees, of laws, ordinances, other governmental regulations, or of the terms of this lease.
The Landlord shall indemnify and save harmless Tenant of and from liability for damages or claims against Tenant, including costs, attorneys' fees and expenses of Tenant in defending against the same, on account of injuries to any person or property, if the injuries are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees, or of any other person entering upon the premises under express or implied invitation of Landlord or where such injuries are the result of the violation by Landlord, its agents, servants or employees, of laws, ordinances, other governmental regulations, or of the terms of this lease.
Landlord provides recreation facilities for the use of employees of Tenant and other occupants within the property developed by Landlord, which property presently includes LONG'S PEAK INDUSTRIAL PARK, FIRST, SECOND and THIRD FILINGS, and portions of ST. VRAIN CENTRE, both in the City of Longmont and County of Boulder, Colorado, and will include such additional property in the immediate vicinity thereof as may be developed by Landlord. The term "recreation facilities" includes, at present, a fitness trail with 34 exercise stations, volleyball courts, basketball courts, and a park, and will include such additional facilities as Landlord may provide.
Except for the negligent or willful or intentional acts of Landlord or its agent's, contractors, subcontractors or invitees, Tenant shall indemnify and save harmless Landlord of and from Liability for
18
damages or claims against Landlord, including costs, attorneys' fees and expenses of Landlord in defending against the same, on account of any injury to (or death of) an employee of Tenant arising out of use of the recreation facilities.
27. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBLETTING. Tenant shall not assign, mortgage, or encumber this lease, nor sublet or permit the premises or any part thereof to be used by others, without the prior written consent of Landlord in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
In connection with an assignment, sublease or encumbrance Landlord may require the submittal of detailed financial information about the prospective subtenant or assignee, to be reviewed by Landlord and there may be alterations to this lease and alterations to the building which are necessary to consummate the transaction. The Landlord may require Tenant or the prospective assignee or sub-tenant to pay for the alterations to the building, and may require that Landlord perform same. In addition, Landlord may charge a fee of two percent of base rent for the first five years of the lease, due in full upon Landlord's consent, as payment to Landlord for such investigations, lease alterations and similar matters. No two percent fee will be charged in connection with an assignment or sublease to an assignee or subtenant who is "affiliated" with Tenant. "Affiliated" means under common voting control, directly or indirectly or for sub-leasing services provided by Landlord.
If this lease is assigned, or if the premises or any part thereof is sublet, or occupied by anyone other than Tenant, Landlord may, after default by Tenant, collect rent from the assignee, sub-tenant, or occupant and apply the net amount collected against all rent herein reserved. No such assignment, subletting, occupancy, or collection shall be deemed a waiver of this covenant, or the acceptance of the assignee, sub-tenant, or occupant as tenant, or a release of Tenant from further performance by Tenant of the covenants in this lease. The consent by Landlord to an assignment or subletting shall not be construed to relieve Tenant (or any subsequent tenant) from obtaining the consent in writing of Landlord to any further assignment or subletting.
28. LANDLORD'S WARRANTY OF TITLE; QUIET ENJOYMENT. Landlord covenants it has good right to lease the premises in the manner described herein and that Tenant shall peaceably and quietly have, hold, occupy, and enjoy the premises during the term of the lease; except as provided in Paragraph 32 concerning subordination to mortgage lenders.
29. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTY—RIGHTS OF LANDLORD. Landlord does reserve, during the term of this lease, the right to go upon and deal with the premises or part thereof for the purpose of implementing a common development plan for the project of which the premises are a part, and to install non-exclusive sidewalks, paths, roadways and other street improvements for use by vehicles, pedestrians, and for parking; to undertake such drainage programs to handle underground and surface drainage water and to make any other changes and/or improvements as Landlord shall deem advisable in the exercise of its sole discretion; provided, however, any such action by Landlord shall not unreasonably interfere with the rights of Tenant hereunder.
30. GOVERNMENTAL ACQUISITION OF THE PREMISES. The parties agree that Landlord shall have sole and exclusive authority to negotiate and settle all matters pertaining to the acquisition of all or part of the premises by a governmental agency by eminent domain or threat thereof (condemnation), and to convey all or any part of the premises under threat of condemnation, and the lease shall terminate as to any area so conveyed. It is agreed that any compensation for land and/or buildings to be taken whether resulting from negotiation and agreement or condemnation proceedings, shall be the exclusive property of Landlord, and that there shall be no sharing whatsoever between Landlord and Tenant of any such sum. Such taking of property shall not be considered as a breach of this lease by Landlord, nor give rise to any claims in Tenant for damages or compensation from Landlord. Tenant may separately claim and recover from the condemning authority the value of any personal property owned by Tenant which is taken, and loss of the bargain or lease value owed to Tenant and any relocation expenses owed to Tenant by the condemning authority. If the taken portion
19
of the premises consists only of areas where no building is constructed, and the land area of the premises is reduced by less than ten percent, and the parking area available for use by Tenant is reduced by less than five percent, and there is no material change in Tenant's access to the premises, then there shall be no change in the terms of the lease. If no building area is taken but the foregoing limits on parking area reductions are exceeded, then Tenant may terminate the lease unless Landlord provides sufficient reasonably adjacent parking area so that the total available parking area is reduced by less than five percent. If any portion of the building on the premises is taken, then Landlord, at its election, may replace the square footage taken with space in the same building, or may provide land and building area essentially the same as the premises in a reasonably adjacent location, within 10 days after the conveyance or taking, under the same terms and conditions as contained in this lease, and this lease shall be in full force and effect as to the new premises. If Landlord does not so provide reasonable space and the relocation expense associated therewith, then Tenant shall have two options. First, Tenant may terminate the lease by written notice delivered to Landlord within 60 days after the conveyance or taking. Second, Tenant may retain the remaining portion of the premises, under all the terms and conditions hereof, but the base rental shall be reduced in proportion to the number of square feet of building floor space taken compared to the number of square feet of building floor space on the premises prior to the taking.
31. SUBORDINATION OF THE LEASEHOLD TO MORTGAGES. This lease shall be subject and subordinate in priority at all times to the lien of any existing and/or hereafter executed mortgages and trust deeds encumbering the premises. Although no instrument or act on the part of Tenant shall be necessary to effectuate such subordination, Tenant will execute and deliver such further instruments subordinating this lease to the lien of any such mortgages or trust deeds as may be desired by the mortgagee or holder of such trust deeds providing said instruments contain a non disturbance clause and does not alter the terms and conditions of the Lease. In the event Tenant does not execute the Estoppel Certificate within ten (10) days of receipt, Tenant hereby appoints Landlord as his attorney in fact, irrevocably, to execute and deliver any such instrument for Tenant. Tenant further agrees at any time and from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days prior written request by Landlord, to execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Landlord an estoppel affidavit in form acceptable to Landlord and the holder of any existing or contemplated mortgage or deed of trust encumbering the premises. Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon Tenant (1) that this lease is in full force and effect, without modification except as may be represented by Landlord; (2) that there are no uncured defaults in Landlord's performance; and (3) that not more than one (1) month's rent has been paid advance. Further, upon request, Tenant shall supply to Landlord a corporate resolution certifying that the party signing this statement on behalf of Tenant is properly authorized to do so, if Tenant is a corporation. Tenant agrees to provide Landlord within ten business days of Landlord's request, Tenant's most recently completed financial statements and such other financial information as reasonably requested by Landlord in order to verify Tenant's financial condition to satisfy requirements of Landlord's existing or contemplated lender or mortgagee.
Tenant agrees with lender and Landlord that if there is a foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed of trust and pursuant to such foreclosure, the Public Trustee or other appropriate officer executes and delivers a deed conveying the premises to the lender or its designee, or in the event Landlord conveys the premises to the lender or its designee in lieu of foreclosure, Tenant will attorn to such grantee of the premises, rather than to Landlord, to perform all of Tenant's obligations under the lease, and Tenant shall have no right to terminate the lease by reason of the foreclosure or deed given in lieu thereof.
Landlord will include in the terms of any mortgage or deed of trust on the premises a provision that if Tenant is not in default under the terms of this lease and Tenant is then in possession of the premises, Tenant's rights of quiet enjoyment arising out of the lease shall not be affected or disturbed by lender in the event of a default by Landlord and any sale of the premises through foreclosure of any
20
deed of trust or otherwise. This Lease shall be conditional on the Landlord obtaining the current lender's fully executed Subordination, Nondisturbance and Attornment Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit C, within fifteen (15) days from the date of execution hereof.
32. MEMORANDUM OF LEASE—RECORDING. This lease shall not be recorded in the office of the County Clerk and Recorder of Boulder County, except by Landlord as a financing statement. In order to effect public recordation, the parties hereto may, at the time this lease is executed, agree to execute a Memorandum of lease incorporating therein by reference the terms of this lease, but deleting therefrom any expressed statement or mention of the amount of rent herein reserved, which instrument may be recorded by either party in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of Boulder County.
33. NO WAIVER OF BREACH; ACCEPTANCE OF PARTIAL PAYMENTS OF RENT. No assent, or waiver expressed or implied, or failure to enforce, as to any breach of any one or more of the covenants or agreements herein shall be deemed or taken to be a waiver of any succeeding or additional breach.
Payment by Tenant or receipt by Landlord of an amount less than the rent or other payment provided for herein shall not be deemed to be other than a payment on account of the earliest rent then due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment of rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or other payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the balance of all rent then due, and/or to pursue any or all other remedies provided for in this lease, in law, and/or in equity including, but not limited to, eviction of Tenant. Specifically, but not as a limitation, acceptance of a partial payment of rent shall not be a wavier of any default by Tenant.
34. CONTROLLING LAW. The lease, and all terms hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, exclusive of its conflicts of laws rules.
35. INUREMENTS. The covenants and agreements herein contained shall bind and inure to the benefit of Landlord and Tenant and their respective successors. This lease shall be signed by the parties in duplicate, each of which shall be a complete and effective original lease.
36. TIME. Time is of the essence in this lease in each and all of its provisions in which performance is a factor.
37. ADDRESSES: EMPLOYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS; METHOD OF GIVlNG NOTICE. The street address of Landlord is 0000 Xxx Xxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000. The mailing address of Landlord is P. O.

Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X, Xxxx 0 and 6, Replat A, County ef Boulder, State of Colorado,
NOTICE: THE SUBORDINATION PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT RESULTS IN YOUR LEASEHOLD ESTATE IN THE PROPERTY BECOMING SUBJECT TO AND OF LOWER PRIORITY THAN THE SECURITY INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY CREATED BY SOME OTHER OR LATER INSTRUMENT.
SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE
AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT
THIS SUBORDINATION, NONDISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") made to be effective the day of , 1996, between GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION (hereinafter called "Lender"), Xxxxx Land Limited Liability Company, a A Colorado LLC (sometimes hereinafter called "Borrower") and Displaytech. Inc., a A Colorado Corporation (hereinafter called "Tenant");
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, Lender is now the owner and holder of a First Deed of Trust and security Agreement (the "Deed of Trust"), covering the real property described in EXHIBIT A, attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes, and the buildings and improvements thereon (hereinafter collectively called the "Property"), securing the payment of a loan (the "Loan") made by Lender to Borrower; and
WHEREAS, Tenant is the holder of a leasehold estate pursuant to a lease (hereinafter called the "Lease") dated 07/30/96, 1996, with (such party and its successors and assigns occupying the position of landlord under the Lease shall collectively hereinafter be referred to as "Landlord") covering approximately 30,000 square feet of rentable area (the "Premises") of the Property and known as 2602 Clover Basin; and
WHEREAS, Tenant and Lender desire to confirm their understanding with respect to the Lease and the Deed of Trust;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, Lender and Tenant hereby agree and covenant as follows:
1. SUBORDINATION. The Lease, including, without limitation, all rights of first refusal granted to Tenant thereunder, any options to purchase, or any other rights granted to Tenant to acquire any interest in any of the Property other than the leasehold estate granted pursuant to the Lease, now is, and shall at all times continue to be, subject and subordinate in each and every respect, to the Deed of Trust and to any and all liens, interests and rights created thereby and to any and all increases, renewals, modifications, extensions, substitutions, replacements and/or consolidations of the Deed of Trust.
2. NONDISTURBANCE. So long as Tenant is not in default (beyond any period given Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or in the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be performed, (a) Tenant's possession of the Premises and Tenant's rights and privileges under the Lease, or any extensions or renewals thereof, shall not be diminished or interfered with by Lender in the exercise of any of its rights under the Deed of Trust or by any party who acquires the Property from Lender as a result of the exercise by Lender of any such rights, (b) Tenant's occupancy of the Premises shall not be disturbed by Lender in the exercise of any of its rights under the Deed of Trust during the term of the Lease or any such extensions or renewals thereof or by any party who acquires the Property from Lender as a result of the exercise by Lender of any such rights, and (c) Lender will not join Tenant as a party defendant in any action or proceeding for the purpose of terminating Tenant's interest and estate under the Lease
1
because of any default under the Deed of Trust or any other instrument evidencing or securing the Loan.
3. ATTORNMENT. If any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of the Deed of Trust, or if the Property is sold pursuant to a trustee's sale under the Deed of Trust, or if Lender becomes owner of the Property by acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, Tenant shall attorn to the Lender or purchaser, as the case may be, upon any such foreclosure sale or trustee's sale, or acceptance by Lender of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, and Tenant shall recognize Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, as the Landlord under the Lease. Such attornment shall be effective and self-operative without the execution of any further instrument on the part of any of the parties hereto. Tenant agrees, however, to execute and deliver at any time, and from time to time, within five (5) business days after the request of Landlord, any holder(s) of any of the indebtedness or other obligations secured by the Deed of Trust, or any such purchaser, all instruments or certificates which, in the reasonable judgment of Landlord, such holder(s) or such purchaser, may be necessary or appropriate in any such foreclosure proceeding or otherwise to evidence such attornment. Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Lender and any other or future holder(s) of the indebtedness or other obligations secured by the Deed of Trust or any such purchaser, jointly and severally, the agent and attorney-in-fact of Tenant to execute and deliver for and on behalf of Tenant any such instrument or certificate if Tenant fails to do so within the allotted time. Such power of attorney shall not terminate on disability of the principal. In the event of any such attornment, Tenant further waives the provisions of any statute or rule of law, now or hereafter in effect, which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect the Lease and the obligation of Tenant thereunder as a result of any such foreclosure proceeding or trustee's sale.
4. LENDER'S RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND LIABILITY AS A LANDLORD OR LENDER IN POSSESSION. If Lender shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under the Lease in any manner, or if any purchaser acquires the Premises upon any foreclosure of the Deed of Trust or any trustee's sale under the Deed of Trust, Lender or such purchaser, as the case may be, in the event of attornment, shall have the same remedies by entry, action or otherwise in the event of any default by Tenant (beyond any period given Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or in the performance of any of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be performed that Landlord had or would have had if Lender or such purchaser had not succeeded to the interest of Landlord. From and after any such attornment, Lender or such purchaser shall be bound to Tenant under all the terms, covenants, and conditions of the Lease, and Tenant shall, from and after the succession to the interest of Landlord under the Lease by Lender or such purchaser, have the same remedies against Lender or such purchaser for the breach of an agreement contained in the Lease that Tenant might have had under the Lease against Landlord if Lender or such purchaser had not succeeded to the interest of Landlord; provided, however, that the provisions of the Deed of Trust shall govern with respect to the disposition of any casualty insurance proceeds or condemnation awards and provided further that Lender or such purchaser shall not be:
(a) liable for any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord);
(b) subject to offsets or defenses which Tenant might have against any prior landlord (including Landlord);
(c) bound by any rent or additional rent which Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to any prior landlord (including Landlord), unless the same was paid to and received by Lender; or
(d) bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease made without its consent,
Neither General Electric Capital Corporation, nor any other party who from time to time shall be included in the definition of Lender hereunder, shall have any liability or responsibility under or
2
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement after it ceases to own an interest in or to the Property. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require Lender to see to the application of the proceeds of the Loan, and Tenant's agreements set forth herein shall not be impaired on account of any modification of the documents evidencing and securing the Loan. Tenant acknowledges that Lender is obligated only to Borrower to make the Loan only upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement between Lender and Borrower pertaining to the Loan. Tenant further acknowledges and agrees that neither Lender nor any purchaser of the Property at foreclosure sale or any grantee of the Property named in a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, nor any heir, legal representative, successor, or assignee of Lender or any such purchaser or grantee, has or shall have any personal liability for the obligations of Landlord under the Lease, except to the extent of the rents, security deposits, and insurance and condemnation proceeds actually received and the equity in the Property then owned by such party; provided, however, that the Tenant may exercise any other right or remedy provided thereby or by law in the event of any failure by Landlord to perform any such material obligation.
5. NO WAIVER. Nothing herein contained is intended, nor shall it be construed, to abridge or adversely affect any right or remedy of Landlord under the Lease in the event of any default by Tenant (beyond any period given Tenant to cure such default) in the payment of rent or additional rent or in the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Lease on Tenant's part to be performed.
6. PAYMENTS. Tenant agrees that except for rental payments to be made to Landlord as provided in the Lease and payments made for adjustments in operating expenses passed through to Tenant, any other payments made to Landlord in connection with the Premises, including, without limitation, any amounts payable or reimbursable to Landlord or Borrower for "tenant-finish" work or any other services not described in the Lease, shall be made in the form of joint payee checks naming both Tenant and Lender as payees.
7. NOTICES. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) From and after the date hereof, in the event of any act or omission of Landlord which would give Tenant the right, either immediately or after the lapse of time, to terminate the Lease or to claim a partial or total eviction, Tenant will not exercise any such right (i) until it has given written notice of such act or omission to Lender and (ii) until the expiration of thirty (30) days following such giving of notice to Lender in which time period Lender shall be entitled to cure any such act or omissions of Landlord.
(b) Tenant shall send a copy of any such default, notice or statement under the Lease to the Lender at the same time such notion or statement is sent to Landlord.
(c) If Lender notifies Tenant of a default under the Deed of Trust and demands that Tenant pay its rent and all other sums due under the Lease to Lender, Tenant shall honor such demand and pay its rent and all of the sums due under the Lease directly to Lender or as otherwise required pursuant to such notice. In connection therewith, Landlord, by its execution of this Agreement, hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a default under the Deed of Trust, Tenant may pay all rents and all of the sums due under the Lease directly to Lender as provided hereinabove upon notice from Lender that Landlord is in default. If Tenant shall make rental payments to the Lender following receipt of notice that Landlord is in default, Landlord hereby waives any claims against Tenant for the amount of such payments made by Tenant to Lender.
8. COVENANTS. Tenant shall not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, (a) prepay any of the rents, additional rents or other sums due under the Lease for more than one (1) month in advance of the due dates thereof, (b) voluntarily surrender the Premises or terminate the
3
Lease without cause or (c) assign the Lease or sublet the Premises other than pursuant to the provisions of the Lease.

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their successors and permitted assigns, and any purchaser or purchasers at foreclosure of the Property, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
10. NOTICE OF MORTGAGE. To the extent that the Lease shall entitle the Tenant to notice of any mortgage, or deed of trust, this Agreement shall constitute such notice to the Tenant with respect to the Deed of Trust and to any and all other mortgages or deeds of trust which may hereafter be subject to the terms of this Agreement as provided above.
11. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. Other than items and products sold or used by Tenant in its ordinary course of business (which products and items are permitted to be sold under applicable laws, or do not exceed limits under applicable laws, or for which permits or licenses have been obtained under applicable laws), Tenant shall neither suffer nor itself manufacture, store, handle, transport, dispose of, spill, leak or dump any toxic or hazardous waste, waste product or substance (as they may be defined in any federal or state statute, rule (or regulation pertaining to or governing such waste, waste products or substances) on the Premises or any property in the vicinity of the Premises at any time during the term, or extended term, of the Lease.
