the Subleased Premises were in good order and satisfactory condition when
Subtenant took possession.

(a) Base Rent: Commencing on the Sublease Commencement Date and
---------
continuing on the first (1st) day of each calendar month throughout the Term,
Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord base rent for the Subleased Premises in
monthly installments of Thirty Six Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty One Dollars and
40/100ths Dollars ($36,821.40) ("Base Rent"); provided, however, that Subtenant
shall not be required to pay the installment of Base Rent due for the first full
calendar month of the Term. Base Rent, Additional Rent (as defined in Section
4(b) below) and any other charge or sum payable by Subtenant pursuant to this
Sublease are collectively hereinafter referred to as "Rent". Base Rent shall be
paid in advance on the Sublease Commencement Date and thereafter on or before
the first (1st) day of each month during the Term. Rent for any period during
the Term which is for less than one (1) full calendar month shall be a pro rata
portion of the monthly installment based on a thirty (30) day month. Rent shall
be payable without notice or demand and without any deduction, offset,
counterclaim, or abatement, in lawful money of the United States of America.
Rent shall be paid directly to Sublandlord at Cygnus, Inc., 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx,

---------------
continuing throughout the Term, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord as additional
rent ("Additional Rent"):
(1) The following percentages ("Subtenant's Share") of the
Operating Expenses (as defined below) payable by Sublandlord pursuant to the
Master Lease:
2
Type of Expense Subtenant's Share
--------------- -----------------
Building Operating Expenses for 501 Building 100%
Project Operating Expenses 34.8%
Phase Operating Expenses 34.8%
(2) Thirty four and eight-tenths percent (34.8%) of all Utilities
(as defined below) payable by Sublandlord with respect to the Project and Phase
I, plus one hundred percent (100%) of the Utilities, if any, payable by
Sublandlord with respect to the 501 Building.
(c) Definition of Operating Expenses and Utilities: As used in this
----------------------------------------------
Sublease, Operating Expenses shall mean those "operating expenses" (including,
without limitation, "Building Operating Expenses", "Project Operating Expenses",
and "Phase Operating Expenses") as defined and described in Paragraph 7 of the
Original Lease and Section 6 of the Third Amendment; provided, however, that
Operating Expenses shall not include any Building Operating Expenses (as defined
in Section 6(v) of the Third Amendment) attributable to any specific Building
other than the 501 Building (unless they constitute Phase Operating Expenses).
As used in this Sublease, Utilities shall mean the "utilities" as defined and
described in Paragraph 8 of the Original Lease, Section 6(c) of the Second
Amendment and Section 7 of the Third Amendment; provided, however, that
Utilities shall not include any utilities separately metered to the Subleased
Premises or any utilities attributable to any specific Building other than the
501 Building (unless they constitute Phase Operating Expenses).
(d) Operating Expenses Based on Master Landlord Statements:
------------------------------------------------------
Notwithstanding Sections 4(b) or (c) above, the parties acknowledge that Master
Landlord currently bills Sublandlord for Operating Expenses on a lump sum basis
(i.e., without itemizing the Operating Expenses). Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in Sections 4(b) or (c) above, the parties agree that so long as
the Master Landlord bills Sublandlord on a lump sum basis, Subtenant shall pay
to Sublandlord as Additional Rent thirty four and eight-tenths percent (34.8%)
of the amount for Operating Expenses shown on the billing statement received by
Sublandlord from Master Landlord, subject to annual adjustments necessitated by
the annual reconciliation of operating expenses by Master Landlord pursuant to
the Master Lease. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that should Master Landlord at
any time during Term of this Sublease provide Sublandlord with a breakdown of
the Operating Expenses that specifically allocates such expenses to Building
Operating Expenses, Project Operating Expenses or Phase Operating Expenses or a
breakdown of the Utilities that specifically allocates such Utilities to
Building Utilities, Project Utilities, or Phase Utilities, then Subtenant shall
pay Subtenant's Share of such Operating Expenses or Utilities as provided in
Sections 4(b) and 4(c) above and, to the extent that such breakdown covers
Operating Expenses or Utilities previously paid by Subtenant to Sublandlord, the
parties shall credit or debit Subtenant for any over- or underpayment of
Subtenant's Share. Subtenant shall promptly pay to Sublandlord any sums so
debited to Subtenant.
(e) Payment of Additional Rent: Subtenant shall pay Sublandlord all
--------------------------
items of Additional Rent not later than the later to occur of (a) five (5) days
before the date the analogous item of Additional Rent is due under the Master
Lease or (b) five (5) days after Sublandlord's delivery of written demand
therefor to Subtenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
3
this Sublease, Subtenant shall not be required to pay (i) any Additional Rent
that is fairly allocable to any period of time prior to the Sublease
Commencement Date or (ii) late charges or penalties payable to Master Landlord
as a result of a default by Sublandlord of any of its obligations under the
Master Lease (except to the extent such default is the result of a default by
Subtenant of any of its obligations under this Sublease).
5. Security Deposit: Upon execution hereof, Subtenant shall deposit with
----------------
Sublandlord the sum of Thirty Six Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty One and
40/100ths Dollars ($36,821.40) (the "Security Deposit"), in cash, as security
for the performance by Subtenant of the terms and conditions of this Sublease.
If Subtenant fails to pay Rent or other charges due under this Sublease or
otherwise defaults beyond applicable notice and cure periods with respect to any
provision of this Sublease, then Sublandlord may draw upon, use, apply or retain
all or any portion of the Security Deposit for the payment of any Rent or other
charge or obligation in default, for the payment of any other sum which
Sublandlord has become obligated to pay by reason of Subtenant's default, or to
compensate Sublandlord for any loss or damage which Sublandlord has suffered by
reason of Subtenant's default (including, without limitation, damage to the
Subleased Premises). If Sublandlord so uses or applies all or any portion of the
Security Deposit, then Subtenant, within ten (10) days after demand by
Sublandlord therefor, shall deposit cash with Sublandlord in the amount required
to restore the Security Deposit to the full amount stated above. Sublandlord may
commingle the Security Deposit with its own funds and Subtenant shall not be
entitled to interest on the Security Deposit. Upon the expiration or earlier
termination of this Sublease and Subtenant's vacation of the Subleased Premises,
Sublandlord shall return to Subtenant so much of the Security Deposit as has not
been applied by Sublandlord pursuant to this paragraph or which is not otherwise
required to cure Subtenant's defaults.
6. Holdover: Subtenant acknowledges that it is critical that Subtenant
--------
surrender the Subleased Premises on or before the Expiration Date in accordance
with the terms of this Sublease. Accordingly, Subtenant shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless Sublandlord from and against any and all losses, costs,
claims, liabilities and damages resulting from Subtenant's failure to surrender
the Subleased Premises on the Expiration Date in the condition required under
the terms of this Sublease (including, without limitation, any and all liability
or damages sustained by Sublandlord as a result of a holdover of the Subleased
Premises by Sublandlord occasioned by the holdover of the Subleased Premises by
Subtenant). The foregoing indemnity shall survive the expiration or sooner
termination of this Sublease. Subtenant has no right to retain possession of the
Subleased Premises or any part thereof beyond the Expiration Date or sooner
termination of this Sublease. If Subtenant remains in possession of the
Subleased Premises or any part thereof after the Expiration Date or sooner
termination of this Sublease, such occupancy shall be a tenancy-at-sufferance at
the Base Rent in effect during the month immediately preceding the expiration or
termination, together with all other sums comprising Rent hereunder, and
otherwise subject to all the provisions of this Sublease. Nothing contained
herein shall be construed as consent by Sublandlord to any holding over by
Subtenant or as a limitation of Subtenant's rights and remedies should Subtenant
hold over.
7. "AS-IS"; Repairs: Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that Subtenant is
----------------
subleasing the Subleased Premises on an "AS-IS" basis in its current "AS-IS"
condition (except that the Premises shall be delivered broom clean) inclusive of
all faults and defects. Subtenant further acknowledges and agrees that except as
expressly provided below, Sublandlord has made
4
no representations or warranties, express or implied, whatsoever, with respect
to the Subleased Premises (including, without limitation, any representation or
warranty as to fitness, habitability, or suitability for Subtenant's intended
use or purposes). Sublandlord represents that it (a) has not received written
notice of any building code violations applicable to the Subleased Premises, and
(b) the Subleased Premises and Sublandlord's leased premises at 000 Xxxxxxxxx
are separately metered to Pacific Gas & Electric. Sublandlord shall have no
obligation whatsoever to make or pay the cost of any alterations, improvements
or repairs to the Subleased Premises including, without limitation, any
improvement or repair required to comply with any law, regulation, building code
or ordinance (including the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as
amended). In addition, Sublandlord shall have no obligation to make or perform
any repairs, maintenance, replacements or other obligations required to be
performed by Master Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease or otherwise
under the law. Sublandlord shall, however, after receipt of Subtenant's written
request, promptly notify Master Landlord of any nonperformance of Master
Landlord's obligations under the Master Lease that is claimed in Subtenant's
written notice, and request that Master Landlord perform the same, and shall use
Sublandlord's commercially reasonable efforts (not including the payment of
money, the incurring of any liabilities, or the institution of legal
proceedings) to obtain Master Landlord's performance (collectively,
"Sublandlord's Master Lease Enforcement Obligations"). Subtenant hereby waives
the provisions of Section 1932, subsection 1, and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the
Civil Code of California, including any rights as may exist under Section 1942
to make repairs at the expense of Sublandlord.
If by reason of casualty damage to or destruction or condemnation of the
Subleased Premises during the Term Sublandlord has the right to terminate the
Master Lease pursuant to Paragraphs 24 or 25 of the Master Lease and elects not
to terminate the Master Lease pursuant to said Paragraphs, Subtenant shall have
the right to terminate this Sublease on the same terms and conditions (and
within the same time frame) that Sublandlord has to terminate the Master Lease
pursuant to said Paragraphs 24 or 25 with respect to the Subleased Premises.
Sublandlord shall promptly provide Subtenant with a copy of any notice of
casualty damage submitted by Sublandlord to Master Landlord pursuant to
Paragraph 24 of the Master Lease and with a copy of any notice received from
Master Landlord pursuant to such Paragraph 24 regarding Master Landlord's
architect's determinations with regard to such casualty damage. If the rent
payable by Sublandlord under the Master Lease with respect to the Subleased
Premises is abated by reason of Paragraphs 24 or 25 of the Master Lease, the
Rent payable by Subtenant hereunder for the period of such abatement shall be
abated on a proportionate basis. Subtenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation or damages from Sublandlord or Master Landlord for loss of use of
the whole or any part of the Subleased Premises or any improvements, fixtures or
personal property of Subtenant, or for any inconvenience or annoyance occasioned
by condemnation, fire or other casualty damage to the Subleased Premises or the
501 Building or any repair, reconstruction or restoration performed in
connection therewith. Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that the terms of this
Sublease shall govern the effect of any damage to or destruction or condemnation
of the Subleased Premises or the 501 Building with respect to the termination of
this Sublease and Subtenant hereby waives the provisions of any present or
future statute or rule of law to the extent it is inconsistent herewith.
8. Assignment and Subletting: In addition to the provisions of Paragraph 15
-------------------------
of the Master Lease as incorporated herein (requiring, among other things,
Sublandlord's consent to
5
any proposed assignment or subletting, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, subject to the provisions of said Paragraph 15), Subtenant shall not
assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer any interest in this Sublease,
sublet all or any part of the Subleased Premises, transfer any interest of
Subtenant therein or permit any use of the Subleased Premises by another party
(collectively, "Transfer"), without the prior written consent of Master
Landlord. Subtenant shall not be relieved from any of its obligations under this
Sublease by reason of any Transfer.
9. Use: Subtenant shall use the Subleased Premises as a bio-processing
---
scale-up facility and such other purposes as are permitted under the Master
Lease and for no other purposes whatsoever. Subtenant shall observe and comply
with, and cause all of its agents, employees, contractors, visitors, licensees,
subtenants, invitees, and assignees (collectively "Subtenant Parties") to comply
with, all Rules promulgated by Master Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease.
Neither Master Landlord nor Sublandlord shall be liable for failure of any
person to obey such Rules. Nor shall Master Landlord be obligated to enforce
such Rules against any person. Attachment 1 to Rider No. 1 to the Original Lease
is hereby replaced and superceded in its entirety by Exhibit "C" to this
----------
Sublease. Subtenant covenants and warrants that it shall not use or permit any
Subtenant Party to use any Hazardous Materials (as defined in Paragraph 9 of the
Original Lease and Rider No. 1 thereto) on the Subleased Premises, the 501
Building or the Project, except for the use of Permitted Hazardous Materials (as
defined in Rider No. 1 to the Original Lease as modified by this Sublease) in
accordance with the terms of this Sublease (including, without limitation, Rider
No. 1 to the Original Lease as modified by this Sublease).
10. Effect of Conveyance: As used in this Sublease, the term "Sublandlord"
--------------------
means the holder of the Lessee's interest under the Master Lease. Sublandlord
may transfer and deliver (by cash or credit) any security of Subtenant to the
transferee of the Lessee's interest under the Master Lease, and thereupon
Sublandlord shall be discharged from any further liability with respect thereto.
11. Alterations: In addition to the requirements of Paragraph 11 of the
-----------
Master Lease as incorporated herein (requiring, among other things,
Sublandlord's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, subject to the
provisions of said Paragraph 11), Subtenant shall not make any additions,
alterations, improvements or other modifications to the Subleased Premises or
any part thereof except in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease and
with the prior written consent of Master Landlord. Without limiting the
foregoing, Subtenant shall be responsible, at its sole expense, for the
installation, maintenance and repair of Subtenant's network connection to the
existing network room at the Subleased Premises. Subtenant shall, at its sole
cost, make all modifications, alterations and improvements to the Subleased
Premises and the 501 Building that are required by any applicable local, state
or federal rule, law, regulation or order because of: (i) Subtenant's particular
use of the Subleased Premises or 501 Building; (ii) Subtenant's application for
any building permit or other governmental approval; or (iii) Subtenant's making
of any alteration or improvement to or within the Subleased Premises.
12. Insurance; Exemption of Sublandlord from Liability.
--------------------------------------------------
(a) Subtenant's Liability Insurance. Subtenant, at its sole expense,
-------------------------------
shall obtain and keep in full force and effect during the Term such insurance,
in such amounts, as are required to be obtained and kept by Lessee under
Paragraph 20 of the Master Lease. Without
6
limiting the foregoing, Subtenant shall, at its sole expense, cause Sublandlord
and Master Landlord to be named as additional insureds under the liability
policy(ies) required to be maintained by Subtenant. Subtenant and Sublandlord
shall each obtain from their respective property insurers a waiver of all rights
of subrogation as set forth in Paragraph 19 of the Master Lease. The other
waivers contained in Paragraph 19 of the Master Lease shall apply as between
Subtenant and Sublandlord.
(b) Exemption of Sublandlord from Liability. Sublandlord shall not be
---------------------------------------
liable to Subtenant or anyone else for any harm, injury (including illness and
emotional distress), death or damage to (i) the person or goods, wares,
merchandise or other property of Subtenant, any Subtenant Party, or any other
person on or traveling to or from the Subleased Premises, or (ii) Subtenant or
its business, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from fire,
steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage,
obstruction or other defects or pipes, fire sprinklers, wires, appliances,
plumbing, HVAC or lighting fixtures, or from any variation or interruption of
utility (including telecommunications) services, or from any other cause,
including where the said injury or damage results from Sublandlord's or its
employees', agents', or contractors' acts or omissions or from any other sources
or places, but not to the extent the said injury or damage results from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord or its employees, agents
or contractors. Sublandlord shall not be liable for any damages arising from any
act or neglect of any other tenant or subtenant of the Project. Notwithstanding
Sublandlord's negligence or breach of this Sublease, Sublandlord shall under no
circumstances be liable for injury to Subtenant's business or for any loss of
income or profit therefrom or for any other consequential damages suffered by
Subtenant.
13. No Liability for Master Landlord Defaults. Sublandlord shall not be
-----------------------------------------
liable to Subtenant for any defaults by Master Landlord under the Master Lease,
nor shall Subtenant be entitled to terminate this Sublease or to xxxxx Rent
(except as provided in Section 7 above) for any reason including, without
limitation, (a) the failure, curtailment, stoppage, suspension or interruption
of any utility or service furnished to the Subleased Premises or the 501
Building, whether by Master Landlord or anyone else, or (b) the failure of
Master Landlord to keep, maintain, repair or replace the Subleased Premises as
may be required under the Master Lease; provided, however, if an express
provision of the Master Lease gives Sublandlord the right to terminate the
Master Lease upon the occurrence of any event described in (a) or (b) and
Sublandlord elects not to terminate the Master Lease pursuant to such provision,
Subtenant shall have the right to terminate this Sublease on the same terms and
conditions (and within the same time frame) that Sublandlord has to terminate
the Master Lease pursuant to such provision).
14. Self-Help: If Subtenant fails to perform any affirmative duty or
---------
obligation of Subtenant under this Sublease, within ten (10) days after written
notice to Subtenant, Sublandlord may, at its option (but without obligation to
do so), perform such duty or obligation on Subtenant's behalf. The actual and
reasonably expended costs and expenses of any such performance by Sublandlord
shall be due and payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord within five (5) business
days after Subtenant's receipt of Sublandlord's invoice therefor.
15. Surrender: On or before the Expiration Date or the earlier termination
---------
of this Sublease, Subtenant shall remove all of its trade fixtures, furnishings,
equipment and other personal property and all alterations constructed or
installed by Subtenant in the Subleased
7
Premises which Sublandlord designated for removal at the time Sublandlord
approved the construction or installation of such alterations in the Subleased
Premises, and shall surrender the Subleased Premises to Sublandlord in (a) good
condition, order and repair, reasonable wear and tear and casualty damage or
destruction covered by Paragraph 24 of the Master Lease excepted, and (b) free
of any Hazardous Materials used, stored, handled, manufactured, transported,
released, discharged, introduced, emitted or disposed of by Subtenant or any
Subtenant Party. Subtenant shall repair any damage to the Subleased Premises,
the 501 Building or any other part of the Project resulting from the removal of
Subtenant's trade fixtures, furnishings, equipment, personal property and
alterations, and, at Sublandlord's sole election, Subtenant shall restore the
Premises to a condition equivalent in all material respects to the condition
that existed as of the Sublease Commencement Date (which may require Subtenant
to reconstruct improvements that were in existence on the Sublease Commencement
Date but that were subsequently removed by Subtenant); provided, however, that
Subtenant shall not be required to reconstruct or remove any improvements
unless, at the time Sublandlord approved the alteration of the Subleased
Premises, Sublandlord conditioned its approval on such subsequent reconstruction
or removal. Sublandlord may require the removal at any time of any or all
alterations to the Subleased Premises made by or on behalf of Subtenant without
the prior written consent of Sublandlord and Master Landlord. If the Subleased
Premises are not surrendered as required by this Section 15, then, in addition
to all other rights and remedies of Sublandlord, Subtenant shall be liable to
Sublandlord for the actual and reasonably expended costs incurred by Sublandlord
in returning the Subleased Premises to the required condition, plus interest
thereon until paid at the prime interest rate plus four percent (4%) or, if
lower, at the highest, non-usurious rate permitted by law. The provisions of
this Section 15 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this
Sublease.
16. Brokers. The parties acknowledge that Tory Corporate Real Estate
-------
Advisors, Inc. (doing business as The Staubach Company) ("Sublandlord's Agent")

Sublease. Sublandlord shall pay Sublandlord's Agent a real estate commission
pursuant to a separate contractual agreement and not pursuant to the terms of
this Sublease. Sublandlord shall have no obligation to pay Subtenant's Agent any
commission or other compensation. Subtenant and Sublandlord each agree to
indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims for
brokerage commissions, finder's fees or other compensation made against the
indemnified party by any agent, broker, salesman or finder as a consequence of
the indemnifying party's actions or dealings with such agent, broker, salesman,
or finder. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Sublease.
