AGREEMENT REGARDING
PURCHASE AND REMARKETING OPTIONS
(LIVERMORE/ PARCEL 7)

This AGREEMENT REGARDING PURCHASE AND REMARKETING OPTIONS (LIVERMORE/ PARCEL 7) (this “Agreement”), dated as of December 18, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), is made by and between BNP PARIBAS LEASING CORPORATION (“BNPPLC”), a Delaware corporation, and XXX RESEARCH CORPORATION (“LRC”), a Delaware corporation.

RECITALS

Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, BNPPLC and LRC are executing a Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement (Livermore/ Parcel 7) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement”), which by this reference is incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement for all purposes. As used in this Agreement, capitalized terms defined in the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are intended to have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement.

Contemporaneously with this Agreement, at the request of LRC BNPPLC is acquiring the Land described in Exhibit A and any existing Improvements on the Land pursuant to the Existing Contract.

Also contemporaneously with this Agreement, BNPPLC and LRC are executing a Construction Agreement (Livermore/ Parcel 7) dated as of the Effective Date (the“Construction Agreement”) and a Lease Agreement (Livermore/ Parcel 7) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Lease”). Pursuant to the Construction Agreement, BNPPLC is agreeing to provide funding for the construction of new Improvements. When the term of the Lease commences, the Lease will cover the Land described in Exhibit A and all Improvements on such Land. (As used herein, “Property” means (i) all of BNPPLC’s interests, including those conveyed to it by the Prior Owner, in the Land and in the Improvements and in all other real and personal property from time to time covered or to be covered by the Lease and included within the “Property” as defined therein, and (ii) BNPPLC’s interest in any Escrowed Proceeds yet to be applied as a Qualified Prepayment or to the cost of repairs to or restoration of the Improvements or other property covered by the Lease; except that, for purposes of this Agreement (but without limiting any provision of the other Operative Documents regarding the application of Escrowed Proceeds), the Property will not include any condemnation or insurance proceeds included in Escrowed Proceeds as a result of any Pre-lease Force Majeure Event, nor will it include any right to receive any such condemnation or insurance proceeds in the future, unless LRC itself or one of its Affiliates purchases the Property from BNPPLC as provided in subparagraphs 2(A)(1) or 3(A)

below.)

LRC and BNPPLC have agreed on the terms and conditions upon which LRC may elect to purchase or arrange for the purchase of the Property or may be obligated to purchase the Property, and by this Agreement they desire to confirm all such terms and conditions.

AGREEMENTS

1 Additional Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following respective meanings:

“97-1/Default (100%)” means a Default that results from (A) a failure of LRC to make any payment required by any Operative Document, including (i) any 97-10/Prepayment payable as provided in Paragraph 9 of the Construction Agreement, (ii) any other amounts payable under the Construction Agreement because of Covered Construction Period Losses, (iii) any payment of Rent required by the Lease or (iv) any Supplemental Payment required by this Agreement on the Designated Sale Date, or (B) any Hazardous Substance Activities occurring on or about the Land after the Completion Date and on or prior to the Cutoff Date, or (C) any failure of LRC after the Completion Date and on or prior to the Cutoff Date to insure, maintain, operate, repair or return the Property in accordance with all terms and conditions of the Lease, or (D) any failure of LRC to apply insurance or condemnation proceeds received by it with respect to the Property as required by the Operative Documents, or (E) any breach by LRC of subparagraphs 1(B), (D), (E) or (G) of the Closing Certificate. Except as provided in subparagraph 3(A), the characterization of any Default as a 97-1/Default (100%) will not affect the rights or remedies available to BNPPLC because of the Default.

“Adjusted Lease Balance” means a dollar amount equal to the following (but not less than zero):

	•		the Lease Balance, less

	•		Pre-lease Force Majeure Losses (if any).

“Applicable Purchaser” means (1) the third party designated by LRC to purchase the Property at any sale arranged by LRC as provided in this Agreement, or (2) the third party designated by BNPPLC as the purchaser at any Qualified Sale not arranged by LRC.

“Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Losses” means, subject to the qualifications set forth below in this definition, an amount equal to the sum of:

(1)

the total Losses (if any) that have been incurred or suffered by BNPPLC or other Interested Parties at any time and from time to time prior to the Completion Date

			(or, if no Completion Date occurs prior to the Designated Sale Date, then prior to the Designated Sale Date) by reason of, in connection with or arising out of (A) their ownership or alleged ownership of any interest in the Property or the payments required by the Operative Documents, (B) the use or operation of the Property, (C) the negotiation, administration or enforcement of the Operative Documents, (D) the making of Funding Advances, (E) the Construction Project, (F) the breach by LRC of this Agreement or any other Operative Document or any other document executed by LRC in connection herewith, (G) any failure of the Property or LRC itself to comply with Applicable Laws, (H) Permitted Encumbrances, (I) Hazardous Substance Activities, including those occurring prior to Effective Date, or (J) any bodily or personal injury or death or property damage occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever; plus

	(2)		interest accruing at the Default Rate, compounded annually, on each payment of any such Losses by BNPPLC or any other Interested Party from the date such payment was made to the Designated Sale Date.

For purposes of computing the Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Losses, Losses as described in clause (1) of this definition will include each reduction (if any) (i) in the Carrying Costs added to the Outstanding Construction Allowance as provided in the Construction Agreement, or (ii) in the Base Rent payable to BNPPLC as provided in the Lease, that results from Pre-lease Force Majeure Losses. In other words, the Losses described in clause (1) will include the additional (if any) Carrying Costs and Base Rent that would have accrued if Pre-lease Force Majeure Losses were set at zero dollars ($0.00) in the formulas set forth in the Construction Agreement and in the Lease for calculating Carrying Costs and Base Rent, respectively.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, none of the following will be included in the Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Losses: (i) amounts included in or paid by BNPPLC with the proceeds of the Initial Advance (including Transaction Expenses); (ii) Losses paid or reimbursed from Construction Advances (including Local Impositions, insurance premiums and amounts paid by LRC prior to the Completion Date and reimbursed to it through Construction Advances made pursuant to the Construction Agreement); (iii) any other Losses which LRC has paid prior to the Designated Sale Date or for which LRC remains fully obligated to pay pursuant to the other Operative Documents (including Covered Construction Period Losses paid or payable by LRC pursuant to the Construction Agreement); and (iv) any decline in the value of the Property, including any such decline that is attributable solely to a Pre-lease Force Majeure Event and thus constitutes a Pre-lease Force Majeure Loss.

Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 3

Further, in the event BNPPLC or another Interested Party receives and is permitted to retain insurance proceeds paid under any insurance policy maintained by LRC as reimbursement or compensation for Losses that would otherwise be included in the Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Costs, then the Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Costs and the Losses described in clause (2) of this definition will be reduced pro tanto by the amount of such insurance proceeds, effective as of the date such proceeds are paid to BNPPLC or the other Interested Party.

“BNPPLC’s Actual Out of Pocket Costs” means the out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, incurred by BNPPLC in connection with a sale of the Property under this Agreement or in connection with the collection of payments due to it under this Agreement (including any Breakage Costs; Attorneys’ Fees; appraisal costs; and income, transfer, withholding or other taxes which do not constitute Excluded Taxes; but not including Excluded Taxes or costs of removing any Lien Removable by BNPPLC).

•

BNPPLC’s Actual Out of Pocket Costs, and plus

•

an amount equal to the Balance of Unpaid Construction Period Losses (if any).

“Decision Not to Sell at a Loss” means a decision by BNPPLC not to sell the Property on the Designated Sale Date to an Applicable Purchaser as provided in subparagraph 2(A)(2), despite LRC’s satisfaction of the Conditions to LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights.

2 LRC’s Options and Obligations on the Designated Sale Date.

(A) Purchase Option; Initial Remarketing Rights; Supplemental Payment Obligation. Whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but subject to Paragraph 6 below:

(1) LRC will have the right (the “Purchase Option”) to purchase or cause an Affiliate of LRC, as the Applicable Purchaser, to purchase the Property on the Designated Sale Date. If LRC exercises the Purchase Option, the purchase price for the Property will equal the Lease Balance, and on the Designated Sale Date LRC must pay any Base Rent or other amounts then due under the other Operative Documents.

(2) If LRC does not exercise the Purchase Option, LRC will have the following rights (collectively, “LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights”):

(a) First, LRC will have the right to designate a third party, other than an Affiliate of LRC, as the Applicable Purchaser and to cause such Applicable Purchaser to purchase the Property on the Designated Sale Date for a cash price equal to the Initial Remarketing Price. Such right, however, will be subject to the conditions (the “Conditions to LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights”) that (i) LRC deliver an Initial Remarketing Notice to BNPPLC within the thirty days prior to the Designated Sale Date, (ii) on the Designated Sale Date the Applicable Purchaser tenders to BNPPLC a payment equal to the Initial Remarketing Price, and (iii) LRC itself tenders to BNPPLC the Supplemental Payment, if any, which will be required by subparagraph 2(A)(3) in the event BNPPLC completes the sale to the Applicable Purchaser, together with any Base Rent or other amounts then due under the other Operative Documents. Further, notwithstanding the satisfaction of the Conditions to LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights on the Designated Sale Date, if the Break Even Price exceeds the sum of the following: (1) any cash price actually tendered directly to BNPPLC by the Applicable Purchaser on the Designated Sale Date, and (2) any Supplemental Payment actually paid to BNPPLC by LRC on the Designated Sale Date as described

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 8

below, then BNPPLC may affirmatively elect to decline any tender of the purchase price from the Applicable Purchaser and retain the Property rather than sell it pursuant to this subparagraph 2(A)(2) by making a Decision Not to Sell at a Loss.

(b) Second, if LRC elects to cause and does cause an Applicable Purchaser who is not an Affiliate of LRC to purchase the Property on the Designated Sale Date and the cash payment actually received by BNPPLC from the Applicable Purchaser as the purchase price exceeds the Break Even Price, then BNPPLC will pay the excess to LRC or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

(3) If for any reason whatsoever BNPPLC does not receive a cash price (calculated prior to any netting of expenses of BNPPLC) for the Property on the Designated Sale Date equal to or in excess of the Break Even Price in connection with a sale made pursuant to subparagraph 2(A)(1) or subparagraph 2(A)(2)(a), then LRC will have the obligation (the “Supplemental Payment Obligation”) to pay to BNPPLC on the Designated Sale Date a supplemental payment (the “Supplemental Payment”) equal to the amount by which the Break Even Price exceeds any such cash price actually received by BNPPLC on the Designated Sale Date; provided, however, unless LRC exercises the Purchase Option, if such excess is greater than the Maximum Remarketing Obligation, the Supplemental Payment will be limited to an amount equal to the Maximum Remarketing Obligation.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, LRC must (unless excused by subparagraph 6(A) below) make the Supplemental Payment even if BNPPLC does not sell the Property to LRC or an Applicable Purchaser on the Designated Sale Date because of (A) a Decision Not to Sell at a Loss, or (B) a failure of LRC to exercise, or a decision by LRC not to exercise, the Purchase Option or LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights, or (C) a failure of LRC or any Applicable Purchaser to tender the price required by the forgoing provisions on the Designated Sale Date following any exercise of or attempt by LRC to exercise the Purchase Option or LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights.

LRC acknowledges that it is undertaking the Supplemental Payment Obligation in consideration of the rights afforded to it by this Agreement, but that such obligation is not contingent upon any exercise by LRC of such rights or upon any purchase of the Property by LRC or an Applicable Purchaser. If any Supplemental Payment due according to this subparagraph 2(A)(3) is not actually paid to BNPPLC on the Designated Sale Date, then LRC must pay interest on the past due amount computed at the Default Rate.

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 9

LRC also acknowledges that payment of a Supplemental Payment will not excuse it from its obligation to pay any Base Rent or other amounts due under any of the other Operative Documents.

(B) Designation of the Purchaser. To give BNPPLC the opportunity before the Designated Sale Date to prepare the Sale Closing Documents, LRC must, by a notice to BNPPLC given at least ten days prior to the Designated Sale Date, specify irrevocably, unequivocally and with particularity any party who will purchase the Property because of LRC’s exercise of its Purchase Option or of LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights. If LRC fails to do so, BNPPLC may postpone the delivery of the Sale Closing Documents until a date after the Designated Sale Date and not more than ten days after LRC finally does so specify a party, but such postponement will not relieve or postpone the obligation of LRC to make a Supplemental Payment on the Designated Sale Date as provided in subparagraph 2(A)(3).

(C) Delivery of Property Related Documents If BNPPLC Retains the Property. Unless LRC or its Affiliate or another Applicable Purchaser purchases the Property pursuant to subparagraph 2(A), promptly after the Designated Sale Date LRC must deliver and assign to BNPPLC all plans and specifications for the Property previously prepared for LRC or otherwise available to LRC (including those prepared in connection with the construction contemplated by the Construction Agreement), together with all other files, documents and permits of LRC (including any Existing Space Leases and subleases then in force) which may be necessary or useful to any future owner’s or occupant’s use of the Property. Without limiting the foregoing, LRC will transfer or arrange the transfer to BNPPLC of all utility, building, health and other operating permits required by any municipality or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Property for uses of the Property permitted by the Lease or for any remaining construction required to complete the Improvements contemplated by the Construction Agreement if neither LRC nor any Affiliate or other Applicable Purchaser purchases the Property pursuant to subparagraph 2(A).

(D) Security for LRC’s Purchase Option. If (contrary to the intent of the parties as expressed in subparagraph 4(C) of the Lease) it is determined that LRC is not, under applicable state law as applied to the Operative Documents, the equitable owner of the Property and the borrower from BNPPLC in a financing arrangement, but rather is a tenant under the Lease with an option to purchase from BNPPLC as provided in subparagraph 2(A)(1), then the parties intend that the Purchase Option be secured by a lien against and security interest in the Property. Accordingly, BNPPLC does hereby grant to LRC a lien against and security interest in the Property, including all rights, title and interests of BNPPLC from time to time in and to the Land and Improvements, in order to secure (1) BNPPLC’s obligation to convey the Property to LRC or an Affiliate designated by it if LRC exercises the Purchase Option and tenders payment of the Lease Balance and any required Supplemental Payment to

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 10

BNPPLC on the Designated Sale Date as provided herein, and (2) LRC’s right to recover any damages from BNPPLC caused by a breach of such obligation, including any such breach caused by a rejection or termination of this Agreement in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding instituted by or against BNPPLC, as debtor. LRC may enforce such lien and security interest judicially after any such breach by BNPPLC, but not otherwise.

3 LRC’s Rights, Options and Obligations After the Designated Sale Date.

(A) LRC’s Obligation to Buy if Certain Conditions are Satisfied. Regardless of any prior Decision Not to Sell at a Loss or any prior receipt by BNPPLC of any Notice of Sale from LRC, BNPPLC will have the option (the “Put Option”) to require LRC to purchase the Property upon demand at any time after the Designated Sale Date for a cash price equal to the Make Whole Amount if:

(1) BNPPLC has not already conveyed the Property to consummate a sale of the Property to LRC or an Applicable Purchaser pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement; and

(2) a 97-1/Default (100%) occurs or is continuing on or after the Designated Sale Date; and

(3) BNPPLC notifies LRC of BNPPLC’s exercise of the Put Option within two years following the Designated Sale Date.

(B) LRC’s Extended Right to Remarket. If the Property is not sold to LRC or an Applicable Purchaser on the Designated Sale Date pursuant to this Agreement, LRC will have the right (“LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right”) during the Extended Remarketing Period to arrange a sale of the Property to an Applicable Purchaser, other than an Affiliate of LRC, for a price equal to or in excess of the Must Sell Price (a “Proposed Sale”). LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right will, however, be subject to all of the following conditions:

(1) BNPPLC has not exercised the Put Option as provided in subparagraph 3(A) or already contracted with another Applicable Purchaser to convey the Property in connection with a Qualified Sale.

(2) LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right is not terminated pursuant to subparagraph 6(C) because of LRC’s failure to pay any required Supplemental Payment.

(3) LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right is not terminated pursuant to subparagraph 6(C) because of LRC’s failure to pay any required 97-10/Prepayment.

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 11

(4) LRC must have provided a notice to BNPPLC (a “Notice of Sale”) setting forth (i) the date proposed by LRC as the Final Sale Date (the “Proposed Sale Date”), which must be no sooner than thirty days after BNPPLC’s receipt of the Notice of Sale and no later than the last Business Day of the Extended Remarketing Period, (ii) the full legal name of the Applicable Purchaser and such other information as is needed to prepare the Sale Closing Documents, and (iii) the cash price that will be tendered to BNPPLC for the Property (the “Committed Price”).

(5) The Committed Price must be no less than the Must Sell Price, computed as of the Proposed Sale Date.

(C) Deemed Sale On the Second Anniversary of the Designated Sale Date. If no date prior to the second anniversary of the Designated Sale Date qualifies as the Final Sale Date, then on the second anniversary of the Designated Sale Date BNPPLC will, for purposes of the next subparagraph, be deemed to have sold the Property (a “Deemed Sale”) to an Applicable Purchaser at a Qualified Sale for a net cash price equal to its Fair Market Value as determined as of the Designated Sale Date.

(D) LRC’s Right to Share in Sales Proceeds Received By BNPPLC From any Qualified Sale. BNPPLC must apply the cash proceeds received by BNPPLC from any Qualified Sale (regardless of whether the sale is arranged by LRC as provided in subparagraph 3(B) or by BNPPLC itself), or deemed to be received in connection with any Deemed Sale, in the following order of priority:

(1) first, to pay or reimburse to BNPPLC BNPPLC’s Actual Out of Pocket Costs, if any, incurred in connection with the Qualified Sale;

(2) second, to pay or reimburse to BNPPLC any local taxes and impositions and costs of utilities, maintenance, operations, insurance premiums, uninsured losses and business park fees suffered or incurred by BNPPLC with respect to the ownership, operation or maintenance of the Property after the Designated Sale Date, together with interest on such amounts computed at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred to the date reimbursed from sales proceeds;

(3) third, to pay to BNPPLC an amount equal to the difference, if any, computed by subtracting (i) the aggregate payments, if any, previously paid by LRC to BNPPLC as a 97-10/Prepayment or as a Supplemental Payment, from (ii) the Adjusted Lease Balance;

(4) fourth, to reimburse LRC for any 97-10/Prepayment or Supplemental

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 12

Payment previously made by LRC to BNPPLC and to pay interest accruing thereon to LRC during the period from the date LRC previously paid such 97-10/Prepayment or Supplemental Payment, as the case may be, to the date of reimbursement, computed at a floating per annum rate equal to LIBID; and

(5) last, if any such cash proceeds exceed all the payments and reimbursements that are required or may be required as described in the preceding clauses of this subparagraph, BNPPLC may retain the excess.

If, however, BNPPLC completes any sale and conveyance of the Property after the Extended Remarketing Period expires or is terminated, BNPPLC will not be required by this subparagraph to share any proceeds of the sale or conveyance with LRC or any other party claiming through or under LRC. Furthermore, unless and except to the extent required pursuant to clause (4) of this subparagraph from cash proceeds received by BNPPLC from any Qualified Sale or deemed to be received in connection with a Deemed Sale, no interest on any 97-10/Prepayment or Supplemental Payment will be paid to LRC.

4 Transfers By BNPPLC After the Designated Sale Date.

(A) BNPPLC’s Right to Sell. At any time after the Designated Sale Date, if the Property has not already been sold and conveyed by BNPPLC pursuant to Paragraph 2 or Paragraph 3, BNPPLC will have the right to sell the Property or offer the Property for sale to any unrelated third party on any terms believed to be appropriate by BNPPLC in its sole good faith business judgment.

(B) Survival of LRC’s Rights and the Supplemental Payment Obligation. If the Property is not sold on the Designated Sale Date, and if BNPPLC completes a sale or other transfer of the Property after the Designated Sale Date, other than a Qualified Sale, the Supplemental Payment Obligation will survive in favor of BNPPLC’s successors and assigns with respect to the Property (unless it has been terminated as provided in subparagraph 6(A) below); and BNPPLC’s successors and assigns will take the Property subject to LRC’s rights under Paragraph 3, all on the same terms and conditions as would have applied to BNPPLC itself if BNPPLC had not transferred or sold the Property. Without limiting the foregoing, any purchaser that acquires the Property from BNPPLC during the Extended Remarketing Period, other than at a Qualified Sale, will be obligated to distribute proceeds of a subsequent Qualified Sale of the Property as described in the subparagraph 3(D) in the same manner and to the same extent that BNPPLC itself would have been obligated if not for the sale by BNPPLC to the purchaser.

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 13

any Qualified Sale, LRC will execute in favor of the purchaser at the Qualified Sale (or, if the Qualified Sale is a Deemed Sale, in favor of BNPPLC) a quitclaim and release in recordable form of all of LRC’s rights, titles and interests in the Property. If, however, LRC has not already received the share (if any) of the proceeds of the Qualified Sale to which it is entitled by reason of clause (3) of subparagraph 3(D), LRC may condition the delivery of such quitclaim and release upon receipt of its share of such proceeds.

(D) Easements and Other Transfers in the Ordinary Course of Business. No “Permitted Transfer” described in clause (5) (the last clause) of the definition thereof in the Common Definitions and Provisions Agreement will constitute a Qualified Sale if it covers less than all or substantially all of BNPPLC’s then existing interests in the Property. Any such Permitted Transfer of less than all or substantially all of BNPPLC’s then existing interests in the Property will not be prohibited by this Agreement during the Extended Remarketing Period or otherwise; provided, however, any such Permitted Transfer not made in the ordinary course of business, will be made subject to LRC’s rights under Paragraph 3. Thus, for example, if the Property is not sold by BNPPLC to an Applicable Purchaser on the Designated Sale Date, then at any time after the Designated Sale Date BNPPLC may in the ordinary course of business convey a utility easement or a lease of space in the Improvements free from LRC’s rights under Paragraph 3, although following the conveyance of the lesser estate, LRC’s rights under Paragraph 3 will continue during the Extended Remarketing Period as to BNPPLC’s remaining interest in the Land and the Improvements.

5 Terms of Conveyance Upon Purchase.

(A) Tender of Sale Closing Documents. As necessary to consummate any sale of the Property to LRC or an Applicable Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, BNPPLC must, subject to any postponement permitted by subparagraph 2(B), promptly after the tender of the purchase price and any other payments to BNPPLC required pursuant to Paragraph 2 or Paragraph 3, as applicable, convey the Property to LRC or the Applicable Purchaser, as the case may be, by BNPPLC’s execution, acknowledgment (where appropriate) and delivery of the Sale Closing Documents. Such conveyance by BNPPLC will be subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and any other encumbrances that do not constitute Liens Removable by BNPPLC, and such conveyance will not include the rights of BNPPLC or other Interested Parties under the indemnities provided in the Operative Documents. The costs, both foreseen and unforeseen, of any purchase by LRC or an Applicable Purchaser will be the responsibility of the purchaser to the extent (if any) not included in any Break Even Price or Make Whole Amount actually paid to BNPPLC. If for any reason BNPPLC fails to tender the Sale Closing Documents as required by this subparagraph 5(A), BNPPLC will have the right and obligation to cure such failure at any time before thirty days after receipt of a demand for such cure from LRC.

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 14

(B) Delivery of Escrowed Proceeds. BNPPLC may deliver any Escrowed Proceeds constituting Property directly to LRC or to any Applicable Purchaser purchasing the Property pursuant to this Agreement notwithstanding any prior actual or attempted conveyance or assignment by LRC, voluntary or otherwise, of any right to receive the same; BNPPLC will not be responsible for the proper distribution or application by LRC or any Applicable Purchaser of any such Escrowed Proceeds; and any such payment of Escrowed Proceeds to LRC or an Applicable Purchaser will discharge any obligation of BNPPLC to deliver the same to all Persons claiming an interest therein.

6 Survival and Termination of the Rights and Obligations of LRC and BNPPLC.

(A) Election by LRC to Terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation Prior to the Completion Date. By delivery of a notice to BNPPLC in the form attached as Exhibit H, LRC may terminate its Supplemental Payment Obligation, but only prior to the Completion Date and only if at the time of such exercise (1) LRC has given (and not rescinded) a Notice of LRC’s Intent to Terminate as provided in the Construction Agreement, or (2) BNPPLC has given any FOCB Notice as provided in the Construction Agreement. (If for any reason LRC does not provide to BNPPLC a notice terminating the Supplemental Payment Obligation as described in the preceding sentence prior to the Completion Date, then without any notice or other action by the parties to this Agreement, LRC will cease to have any right to terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation.) If LRC does send a notice to BNPPLC in the form attached as Exhibit H, such notice will (as provided therein) constitute an irrevocable and absolute waiver by LRC of LRC’s rights to purchase the Property or to cause any of its Affiliates to purchase the Property pursuant to this Agreement. However, no such notice will terminate BNPPLC’s right to exercise the Put Option, which BNPPLC may exercise if LRC fails to make a 97-10/Prepayment required by the Construction Agreement.

(B) Status of this Agreement Generally. Except as expressly provided in the preceding subparagraph or other provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement will not terminate; nor will LRC have any right to terminate this Agreement; nor will LRC be entitled to any reduction of the Break Even Price, the Make Whole Amount or any payment required under this Agreement; nor will any of the obligations of LRC to BNPPLC under Paragraph 2 or Paragraph 3 be excused by reason of (i) any damage to or the destruction of all or any part of the Property from whatever cause, (ii) the taking of the Property or any portion thereof by eminent domain or otherwise for any reason, (iii) the prohibition, limitation or restriction of LRC’s use or development of all or any portion of the Property or any interference with such use by governmental action or otherwise, (iv) any eviction of LRC or of anyone claiming through or under LRC, (v) any default or breach on the part of BNPPLC under this Agreement or any other Operative Document or any other agreement to which BNPPLC and LRC are parties, (vi) the

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 15

inadequacy in any way whatsoever of the design, construction, assembly or installation of any improvements, fixtures or tangible personal property included in the Property (it being understood that BNPPLC has not made, does not make and will not make any representation express or implied as to the adequacy thereof), (vii) any latent or other defect in the Property or any change in the condition thereof or the existence with respect to the Property of any violations of Applicable Laws, or (viii) LRC’s prior acquisition or ownership of any interest in the Property, or (ix) any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, any existing or future law to the contrary notwithstanding. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the obligations of LRC under this Agreement (including the obligation to make any Supplemental Payment as provided in Paragraph 2) be separate from and independent of BNPPLC’s obligations under this Agreement or any other agreement between BNPPLC and LRC.

(C) Automatic Termination of LRC’s Rights. If LRC fails to pay the full amount of any 97-10/Prepayment required by the Construction Agreement or any Supplemental Payment required by subparagraph 2(A)(3) on the date it is due, then the Purchase Option, LRC’s Initial Remarketing Rights, LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right and all other rights of LRC under this Agreement, will terminate automatically. If, however, prior to the Designated Sale Date LRC effectively terminates the Supplemental Payment Obligation pursuant to subparagraph 6(A) by the delivery of a notice to BNPPLC in the form attached as Exhibit H, so that LRC is excused from the obligation to make any Supplemental Payment pursuant to subparagraph 2(A)(3), then LRC’s Extended Remarketing Right will not terminate pursuant to this subparagraph 6(C) because of LRC’s failure to pay a Supplemental Payment, but rather will survive the delivery of such notice. In any event, no termination of LRC’s rights as described in this subparagraph will limit BNPPLC’s rights or remedies, including its right to xxx LRC for any 97-10/Prepayment or other amounts due from LRC pursuant to any of the other Operative Documents, or BNPPLC’s right to exercise the Put Option.

(D) Payment Only to BNPPLC. Except as provided in this subparagraph, all amounts payable under this Agreement by LRC and, if applicable, by an Applicable Purchaser must be paid directly to BNPPLC. If paid to other parties, such payments will not be effective for purposes of this Agreement.

(E) Preferences and Voidable Transfers. If any payment to BNPPLC by an Applicable Purchaser is held to constitute a preference or a voidable transfer under Applicable Laws, or must for any other reason be refunded by BNPPLC to the Applicable Purchaser or to another Person, and if such payment to BNPPLC reduced or had the effect of reducing a payment required of LRC by this Agreement (e.g., the Supplemental Payment) or increased or had the effect of increasing any sale proceeds paid over to LRC pursuant to subparagraph 2(A)(2)(b) or pursuant to subparagraph 3(D), then LRC must pay to BNPPLC upon demand an amount equal to the reduction of the payment required of LRC or to the

Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 16

increase of the excess sale proceeds paid to LRC, as applicable, and this Agreement will continue to be effective or will be reinstated as necessary to permit BNPPLC to enforce its right to collect such amount from LRC.

(F) Remedies Under the Other Operative Documents. No repossession of or re-entering upon the Property or exercise of any other remedies available to BNPPLC under the other Operative Documents will terminate LRC’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, all of which will survive BNPPLC’s exercise of remedies under the other Operative Documents. LRC acknowledges that the consideration for this Agreement is separate from and independent of the consideration for the Construction Agreement, the Lease, the Closing Certificate and other agreements executed by the parties, and LRC’s obligations under this Agreement will not be affected or impaired by any event or circumstance that would excuse LRC from performance of its obligations under such other Operative Documents.

7 Certain Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to BNPPLC is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy BNPPLC has with respect to the Property, and each and every right and remedy of BNPPLC will be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy given to it under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing in its favor at law or in equity. In addition to other remedies available under this Agreement, either party may obtain a decree compelling specific performance of any of the other party’s agreements hereunder.

8 Attorneys’ Fees and Legal Expenses. If either party commences any legal action or other proceeding because of any breach of this Agreement by the other party, then the party prevailing in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover all Attorneys’ Fees incurred by it in connection therewith from the other party, whether or not such controversy, claim or dispute is prosecuted to a final judgment. Any Attorneys’ Fees incurred by the party prevailing in enforcing a judgment in its favor under this Agreement shall be recoverable separately from such judgment, and the obligation for such Attorneys’ Fees is intended to be severable from other provisions of this Agreement and not to be merged into any such judgment.

9 Recording Memorandum. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the parties will execute and record a memorandum of this Agreement for purposes of effecting constructive notice to all Persons of LRC’s rights hereunder, including the lien granted to it in subparagraph ? above.

10 Successors and Assigns. The terms, provisions, covenants and conditions hereof will be binding upon LRC and BNPPLC and their respective permitted successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of LRC and BNPPLC and all permitted transferees, mortgagees, successors and assignees of LRC and BNPPLC with respect to the Property; except that (A) the rights of BNPPLC hereunder will not pass to LRC or any Applicable Purchaser or any subsequent owner claiming through LRC or an Applicable Purchaser, (B) BNPPLC will not assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder except pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, and (C) LRC will not assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder without the prior written consent of BNPPLC.

Exhibit A to Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing

Exhibit B

Valuation Procedures

This Exhibit explains the procedures to be used to determine Fair Market Value of the Property if such a determination is required by this Agreement. In such event, either party may invoke the procedures set out herein prior to the date the determination will be needed so as to minimize any postponement of any payment, the amount of which depends upon Fair Market Value. In the event such a payment becomes due before the required determination of Fair Market Value is complete, such payment will be postponed until the determination is complete. But in that event, when the required determination is complete, the payment will be made together with interest thereon, computed at a rate equal to the Prime Rate, accruing over the period the payment was postponed.

If any determination of Fair Market Value is required, LRC and BNPPLC will attempt in good faith to reach a written agreement upon the Fair Market Value without unnecessary delay, and either party may propose such an agreement to the other. If, however, for any reason whatsoever, they do not execute such an agreement within seven days after the first such proposed agreement is offered by one party to the other, then the determination will be made by independent appraisers in accordance with the following procedures:

1. Definitions and Assumptions. For purposes of the determination, Fair Market Value will be defined as follows, and all appraisers or others involved in the determination will be instructed to use the following definition:

“Fair Market Value” means the most probable net cash price, as of a specified date, for which the Property should sell after reasonable exposure in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self-interest, and assuming that neither is under undue duress.

In addition, the appraisers or others making the determination will be instructed to assume that ordinary and customary brokerage fees, title insurance costs and other sales expenses will be incurred and deducted in the calculation of such net cash price. Such appraisers or others making the determination will also be instructed to assume that the value of the Property (or applicable portion thereof) is neither enhanced nor reduced by any lease to another tenant that BNPPLC may have executed subsequent to the termination or expiration of the Lease (a “Replacement Lease”). In other words, rather than determine value in light of actual rents generated or to be generated by any such Replacement Lease, the Property (or applicable portion thereof) will be valued in light of the most probable rent that it should bring in a competitive and open market (in this section, a “Fair Market Rental”), taking into account:

(i) the actual physical condition of the Property ¹ ; and


¹		If, however, the use of the Property by BNPPLC or any tenant under any Replacement Lease after LRC vacated the Property has resulted in excess wear and tear, such excess wear and tear will be assumed not to have occurred for purposes of determining Fair Market Value.

(ii) that a reasonable period of time may be required to market the Property (or applicable portion thereof) for lease and make it ready for use or occupancy before it is leased at a Fair Market Rental.

2. Initial Selection of Appraisers; Appraiser’s Agreement as to Value. After having failed to reach a written agreement upon Fair Market Value as described in the second paragraph of this Exhibit, either party may deliver a notice to the other demanding the appointment of appraisers (the “Initial Appraisal Notice”) pursuant to this Exhibit. In such event:

(a) Within fifteen days after the Initial Appraisal Notice is delivered, LRC and BNPPLC must each appoint an independent property appraiser who has experience appraising commercial properties in California and notify the other party of such appointment, including the name of the appointed appraiser (a “Notice of Appointment”).

(b) If the appraiser appointed by LRC and the appraiser appointed by BNPPLC agree in writing upon the Fair Market Value (an “Appraiser’s Agreement As To Value”), such agreement will be binding upon LRC and BNPPLC. Both LRC and BNPPLC will instruct their respective appraisers to attempt in good faith to quickly reach an Appraiser’s Agreement As To Value. Neither appraiser will be required to produce a formal appraisal prior to reaching an Appraiser’s Agreement As To Value.

3. Selection of a Third Appraiser. If the two appraisers fail to deliver an Appraiser’s Agreement As to Value within thirty days following the later of the dates upon which LRC or BNPPLC delivers its Notice of Appointment, then either party (LRC or BNPPLC) may deliver another notice to the other (a “Second Appraisal Notice”), demanding that the two appraisers appoint a third independent property appraiser to help with the determination of Fair Market Value. Immediately after the Second Appraisal Notice is delivered, each of the first two appraisers must act promptly, reasonably and in good faith to try to reach agreement upon the third appraiser. If, however, the two appraisers fail to reach agreement upon a third appraiser within ten days after the Second Appraisal Notice is delivered:

(a) LRC and BNPPLC will each cause its respective appraiser to deliver, no later than fifteen days after the delivery of the Second Appraisal Notice, an unqualified written promise addressed to both of LRC and BNPPLC: (i) to act promptly, reasonably and in good faith in trying to reach agree upon the third appraiser, and (ii) to propose and consider proposals of persons as the third appraiser on the basis of objectivity and competence, not on the basis of such persons’ relationships with the other appraisers or with LRC or BNPPLC, and not on the basis of preferences expressed by LRC or BNPPLC.

(b) If, despite the delivery of the promises described in the preceding subsection, the two

Exhibit B to Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 2

appraisers fail to reach agreement upon a third appraiser within thirty days after the Second Appraisal Notice is delivered, then each of the first two appraisers must immediately submit its top choice for the third appraiser to the then highest ranking officer of the California Bar Association who will agree to help and who has no attorney/client or other significant relationship to either LRC or BNPPLC. Such officer will have complete discretion to select the most objective and competent third appraiser from between the choice of each of the first two appraisers, and will do so within ten days after such choices are submitted to him.

4. Resolution of Issues by the Third Appraiser. If a third appraiser is selected under the procedure set out above:

(a) No later than thirty days after a third appraiser is selected, each of the first two appraisers must submit (and LRC and BNPPLC will each cause its appointed appraiser to submit) his best estimate of Fair Market Value, together with a written report supporting such estimate. (Such report need not be in the form of a formal appraisal, and may contain any qualifications the submitting appraiser deems necessary under the circumstances. Any such qualifications, however, may be considered by the third appraiser for purposes of the selection required by the next subsection.)

(b) After receipt of the two estimates required by the preceding subsection, and no later than forty-five days after the third appraiser is selected, he must (i) choose one or the other of the two estimates of Fair Market Value submitted by the first two appraisers as being the more accurate in his opinion, and (ii) notify LRC and BNPPLC of which estimate he chose. The third appraiser will not be asked or allowed to specify an amount as Fair Market Value that is different than an estimate provided by one of the other two appraisers (either by averaging the two estimates or otherwise). The estimate of Fair Market Value thus chosen by the third appraiser as being the more accurate will be binding upon LRC and BNPPLC.

5. Criteria For Selecting Appraisers; Cost of Appraisals. All appraisers selected for the appraisal process set out in this Exhibit will be disinterested, reputable, qualified appraisers with the designation of MAI or equivalent and with at least five years experience in appraising commercial properties comparable to the Property. LRC and BNPPLC will each bear the expense of the appraiser appointed by it, and the expense of the third appraiser and of any officer of the California Bar Association who participates in the appraisal process described above will be shared equally by LRC and BNPPLC.

6. Time is of the Essence; Defaults.

(a) All time periods and deadlines specified in this Exhibit are of the essence.

(b) Each party must cause the appraiser appointed by it (as set forth in Section 2(a))

Exhibit B to Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing
Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) — Page 3

to comply in a timely manner with the requirements of this Exhibit applicable to such appraiser. Accordingly, if an appraiser appointed by one of the parties as provided in Section 2(a) fails to comply in a timely manner with any provision of this Exhibit, such failure will be considered a default by the party who appointed such appraiser.

(c) Any breach of or default under this Exhibit by either party will be construed as a breach of the Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing Options to which this Exhibit is attached.

	(a)		the Lease;

	(b)		any pending or future award made because of any condemnation affecting the Property or because of any conveyance to be made in lieu thereof, and any unpaid award for damage to the Property and any unpaid proceeds of insurance or claim or cause of action for damage, loss or injury to the Property; and

	(c)		all other personal or intangible property included within the definition of “Property” as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to any of the following transferred to Assignor by the tenant pursuant to Paragraph 6 of the Lease or otherwise acquired by Assignor, at the time of the execution and delivery of the Lease and Purchase Agreement or thereafter, by reason of Assignor’s status as the owner of any interest in the Property: (1) any goods, equipment, furnishings, furniture, chattels and tangible personal property of whatever nature that are located on the Property and all renewals or replacements of or substitutions for any of the foregoing; (ii) the rights of Assignor, existing at the time of the execution of the Lease and Purchase Agreement or thereafter arising, under Permitted Encumbrances; and (iii) any general intangibles, other permits, licenses, franchises, certificates, and other rights and privileges related to the Property that Assignee would have acquired if Assignee had itself acquired the interest of Assignor in and to the Property instead of Assignor.

Provided, however, excluded from this conveyance and reserved to Assignor are any rights or privileges of Assignor under the following: (1) the indemnities set forth in the Construction Agreement and the Lease, whether such rights are presently known or unknown, including rights

of the Assignor to be indemnified against environmental claims of third parties as provided in the Construction Agreement and the Lease which may not presently be known, all of which indemnities will survive the deliver of this Xxxx of Sale and Assignment and other documents required by the Purchase Agreement, (2) provisions in the Lease that establish the right of Assignor to recover any accrued unpaid rent under the Lease which may be outstanding as of the date hereof, (3) agreements between Assignor and any Participant or any of Assignor’s Affiliates, or (4) any other instrument being delivered to Assignor contemporaneously herewith pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.[Drafting Note: The following sentence will be included unless the Property is being sold to LRC or an Affiliate pursuant to subparagraph 2(A)(1) or 3(A) of the Purchase Agreement: Also excluded from this conveyance and reserved to Assignor are (i) the right to retain Escrowed Proceeds, if any, that consist of condemnation or insurance proceeds resulting from a Pre-lease Force Majeure Event, and (ii) any right to receive future payments of any such condemnation or insurance proceeds.].

Assignor does for itself and its successors covenant and agree to warrant and defend the title to the property assigned herein against the just and lawful claims and demands of any person claiming under or through a Lien Removable by Assignor, but not otherwise.

Assignee hereby assumes and agrees to keep, perform and fulfill Assignor’s obligations, if any, relating to any permits or contracts (including the Lease), under which Assignor has rights being assigned herein.

Sections 18805, 18815 and 26131 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, as amended, provide that a transferee of a California real property interest must withhold income tax if the transferor is a nonresident seller.

To inform [LRC or the Applicable Purchaser] (“Transferee”) that withholding of tax is not required upon the disposition of a California real property interest by BNP PARIBAS LEASING CORPORATION (“Transferor”), a Delaware corporation, the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of Transferor:

1. Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

Notice of Election to Terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation
and Irrevocable Release and Waiver of the Right to Purchase

[Date]

BNP Paribas Leasing Corporation

Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000
Attention: Xxxxx X. Xxx, Managing Director

Re: Agreement Regarding Purchase and Remarketing Options (Livermore/ Parcel 7) dated as of December 18, 2007 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between Xxx Research Corporation (“LRC”), a Delaware corporation, and BNP Paribas Leasing Corporation (“BNPPLC”), a Delaware corporation

Gentlemen:

Capitalized terms used in this letter are intended to have the meanings assigned to them in the Purchase Agreement referenced above. This letter will constitute a notice given pursuant to subparagraph 6(A) of the Purchase Agreement. As provided in that subparagraph, LRC irrevocably elects to terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation effective immediately, subject only to the conditions described below. In addition, LRC irrevocably waives and releases its rights to purchase or cause an Affiliate of LRC to purchase the Property granted to it by the Purchase Agreement. Because of such waiver and release, the Purchase Option is terminated and so are all rights of LRC under subparagraphs 2(A) of the Purchase Agreement.

LRC acknowledges that this notice will not be effective to terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation if it is not received by BNPPLC prior to the Completion Date.

LRC also acknowledges that even if no prior 97-10/Meltdown Event has occurred, the delivery of this notice is in and of itself a 97-10/Meltdown Event under and as defined in the Construction Agreement. Therefore, after receipt of this notice BNPPLC will be entitled to demand and receive a 97-10/Prepayment on and subject to the terms and conditions of Paragraph 9 of the Construction Agreement. Further, if LRC fails to make a 97-10/Prepayment required by the Construction Agreement, BNPPLC may and exercise the Put Option as provided in subparagraph 3(A) of the Purchase Agreement.

LRC also acknowledges that its right to terminate the Supplemental Payment Obligation is subject to the condition precedent that: (1) LRC must have given (and not rescinded) a Notice of LRC’s Intent to Terminate as provided in the Construction Agreement, or (2) BNPPLC must have given any FOCB Notice as provided in the Construction Agreement. Accordingly, if neither

of the notices described in the preceding sentence have been given, the Supplemental Payment Obligation will not terminate by reason of this notice.

Finally, LRC acknowledges that because the delivery of this notice constitutes a 97-10/Meltdown Event, BNPPLC will have the right at any time for any reason or no reason to terminate the Lease by notice to LRC.
