default. If any portion of said Deposit is so used or applied, Tenant shall,
within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Landlord
in the amount sufficient to restore the Security Deposit to its original
amount. Tenant's failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease.
Landlord shall not be required to keep this Security Deposit separate from its
general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such Deposit. If
Tenant fully and faithfully performs every provision of this Lease to be
performed by it, the Security Deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned

hereunder) at the expiration of the Lease term and after Tenant has vacated the
Premises. In the event of termination of Landlord's interest in this Lease,
Landlord shall transfer said Deposit to Landlord's successor in interest
whereupon Tenant agrees to release Landlord from liability for the return of
such Deposit or the accounting therefor.
5. ACCEPTANCE AND SURRENDER OF PREMISES Subject to Paragraph 41, by
entry hereunder, Tenant accepts the Premises as being in good and sanitary
order, condition and repair and accepts the building and improvements (as shown
on Exhibit B1), included in the Premises in their present condition and without
representation or warranty by Landlord as to the condition of such building or
as to the use or occupancy which may be made thereof. Any exceptions to the
foregoing must be by written agreement executed by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant

the replacement of any dead or damaged plantings; the sidewalk, driveways and
parking areas in good order, condition and repair; together with all
alterations, additions, and improvements which may have been made in, to, or on

days before the end of the term of this Lease whether Landlord desires to have
the Premises or any part or parts thereof restored to their condition and
configuration as when the Premises were delivered to Tenant and if Landlord
shall so desire, then Tenant shall restore said Premises or such part or
parts thereof before the end of this Lease at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
Tenant, on or before the end of the term or sooner termination of this Lease,
shall remove all of Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures from the

at the end of the term or sooner termination of this Lease, Tenant shall
indemnify Landlord against loss or liability resulting from the delay by Tenant
in so surrendering the Premises including, without limitation, any claims made
by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay. Nothing contained herein shall
be construed as an extension of the term hereof or as a consent of Landlord to
any holding over by Tenant. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease or
the Premises by Tenant or a mutual cancellation of this Lease shall not work as
a merger and, at the option of Landlord, shall either terminate all or any
existing subleases or subtenancies or operate as an assignment to Landlord of
all or any such subleases or subtenancies. At the Commencement of the Lease,
all known roof leaks shall have been repaired at Landlord's expense.
6. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS Tenant shall not make, or suffer to be made,
any alteration or addition to the Premises, or any part thereof, without the
written consent of Landlord first had and obtained by Tenant (such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld), but at the cost of Tenant, and any addition to, or
alteration of, the Premises, except moveable furniture and trade fixtures, shall
at once become a part of the Premises and belong to Landlord. Landlord reserves
the right to approve all contractors and mechanics proposed by Tenant to make
such alterations and additions. Tenant shall retain title to all moveable
furniture and trade fixtures placed in the Premises. All heating, lighting,
electrical, airconditioning, floor to ceiling partitioning, drapery, carpeting,
and floor installations made by Tenant, together with all property that has
become an integral part of the Premises, shall not be deemed trade fixtures.
Tenant agrees that it will not proceed to make such alteration or additions,
without having obtained consent from Landlord to do so, and until five (5) days
from the receipt of such consent, in order that Landlord may post appropriate
notices to avoid any liability to contractors or material suppliers for payment
for Tenant's Improvements. Tenant will at all times permit such notices to be
posted and to remain posted until the completion of work. Tenant shall, if
required by Landlord, secure at Tenant's own cost and expense, a completion and
lien indemnity bond, satisfactory to Landlord, for such work. Tenant further
covenants and agrees that any mechanic's lien filed against the Premises for
work claimed to have been done for, or materials claimed to have been furnished
to Tenant, will be discharged by Tenant, by bond or otherwise, within ten (10)
days after the filing thereof, at the cost and expense of Tenant. Any exceptions
to the foregoing must be made in writing and executed by both Landlord and
Tenant.
7. TENANT MAINTENANCE Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and
maintain the Premises (including appurtenances) and every part thereof in a high
standard of maintenance and repair, and in good and sanitary condition. Tenant's
maintenance and repair responsibilities herein referred to include, but are not
limited to, janitorization, plumbing systems within the non-common areas of the
Premises (such as water and drain lines, sinks), electrical systems within the

including but not limited to: wall coverings, window coverings, acoustical
ceilings, vinyl tile, carpeting, partitioning, doors (both interior and
exterior, including closing mechanisms, latches, locks), and all other interior

8. UTILITIES See paragraph 47
9. TAXES
A. As Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4D of this
Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, or if Landlord so directs, directly to the
Tax Collector, all Real Property Taxes relating to the Premises. In the event
the Premises leased hereunder consists of only a portion of the entire tax
parcel, Tenant shall pay to Landlord Tenant's proportionate share of such real
estate taxes allocated to the leased Premises by square footage or other
reasonable basis as calculated and determined by Landlord. If the tax billing
pertains 100% to the leased premises, and Landlord chooses to have Tenant pay
said real estate taxes directly to the Tax Collector, then in such event it
shall be the responsibility of Tenant to obtain the tax and assessment bills
and pay, prior to delinquency, the applicable real property taxes and
assessments pertaining to the leased Premises, and failure to receive a xxxx
for taxes and/or assessments shall not provide a basis for cancellation of or
nonresponsibility for payment of penalties for nonpayment or late payment by
Tenant. The term "Real Property Taxes", as used herein, shall mean (i) all
taxes, assessments, levies and other charges of any kind or nature whatsoever,
general and special, foreseen and unforeseen (including all installments of
principal and interest required to pay any general or special assessments for
public improvements and any increases resulting from reassessments caused by
any change in ownership of the Premises) now or hereafter imposed by any
governmental or quasi-governmental authority or special district having the
direct or indirect power to tax or levy assessments, which are levied or
assessed against, or with respect to the value, occupancy or use of, all or any
portion of the Premises (as now constructed or as may at any time hereafter be
constructed, altered, or otherwise changed) or Landlord's interest therein; any
improvements located within the Premises (regardless of ownership); the
fixtures, equipment and other property of Landlord, real or personal, that are
an integral part of and located in the Premises; or parking areas, public
utilities, or energy within the Premises; (ii) all charges, levies or fees
imposed by reason of environmental regulation or other governmental control of
the Premises; and (iii) all costs and fees including
Initials: [Initialed]

reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Landlord in reasonably contesting any
Real Property Tax and in negotiating with public authorities as to any Real
Property Tax. If at any time during the term of this Lease the taxation or
assessment of the Premises prevailing as of the commencement date of this Lease
shall be altered so that in lieu of or in addition to any Real Property Tax
described above there shall be levied, assessed or imposed (whether by reason of
a change in the method of taxation or assessment, creation of a new tax or
charge, or any other cause) an alternate or additional tax or charge (i) on the
value, use or occupancy of the Premises or Landlord's interest therein or (ii)
on or measured by the gross receipts, income or rentals from the Premises, on
Landlord's business of leasing the Premises, or computed in any manner with
respect to the operation of the Premises, then any such tax or charge, however
designated, shall be included within the meaning of the term "Real Property
Taxes" for purposes of this Lease. If any Real Property Tax is based upon
property or rents unrelated to the Premises, then only that part of such Real
Property Tax that is fairly allocable to the Premises shall be included within
the meaning of the term "Real Property Taxes". Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the term "Real Property Taxes" shall not include estate, inheritance, gift or
franchise taxes of Landlord or the federal or state net income tax imposed on
Landlord's income from all sources.
B. Taxes on Tenants Property Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay
ten days before delinquency, taxes levied against any personal property or trade
fixtures placed by Tenant in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on
Tenant's personal property or trade fixtures are levied against Landlord or
Landlord's property or if the assessed value of the Premises is increased by the
inclusion therein of a value placed upon such personal property or trade
fixtures of Tenant and if Landlord, after written notice to Tenant, pays the
taxes based on such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the right to
do regardless of the validity thereof, but only under proper protest if
requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand, as the case may be, repay to
Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord, or the proportion of such taxes
resulting from such increase in the assessment; provided that in any such event
Tenant shall have the right, in the name of Landlord and with Landlord's full
cooperation, to bring suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to recover the
amount of such taxes so paid under protest, and any amount so recovered shall
belong to Tenant.
10. LIABILITY INSURANCE Tenant, at Tenant's expense, agrees to keep in
force during the term of this Lease a policy of commercial general insurance
with combined single limit coverage of not less than Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000) for bodily injury and property damage occurring in, on or about the
premises, including parking and landscaped areas. Such insurance shall be
primary and noncontributory as respects any insurance carried by Landlord. The
policy or policies effecting such insurance shall name Landlord as additional
insureds, and shall insure any liability of Landlord, contingent or otherwise,
as respects acts or omissions of Tenant, its agents, employees or invitees or
otherwise by any conduct or transactions of any of said persons in or about or
concerning the Premises, including any failure of Tenant to observe or perform
any of its obligations hereunder; shall be issued by an insurance company
admitted to transact business in the State of California; and shall provide that
the insurance effected thereby shall not be cancelled, except upon thirty (30)
days' prior written notice to Landlord. A certificate of insurance of said
policy shall be delivered to Landlord. If, during the term of this Lease, in the
considered and reasonable opinion of Landlord's Lender, insurance advisor, or
counsel, the amount of insurance described in this Paragraph 10 is not adequate,
Tenant agrees to increase said coverage to such reasonable amount as Landlord's
Lender, Insurance advisor, or counsel shall deem adequate.
11. TENANT'S PERSONAL PROPERTY INSURANCE AND XXXXXXX'X COMPENSATION
INSURANCE Tenant shall maintain a policy or policies of fire and property
damage insurance in "all risk" form with a sprinkler leakage endorsement
insuring the personal property, inventory, trade fixtures, and leasehold
improvements within the leased Premises for the full replacement value thereof.
The proceeds from any of such policies shall be used for the repair or
replacement of such items so insured.
Tenant shall also maintain a policy or policies of xxxxxxx'x
compensation insurance and any other employee benefit insurance sufficient to
comply with all laws.
12. PROPERTY INSURANCE Landlord shall purchase and keep in force, and as
Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4D of this Lease, Tenant shall
pay to Landlord (or Landlord's agent if so directed by Landlord) Tenant's
proportionate share (allocated to the leased Premises by square footage or other
reasonable and equitable basis as calculated and determined by Landlord) of the
deductibles on insurance claims and the cost of, policy or policies of insurance
covering loss or damage to the Premises (excluding routine maintenance and
repairs and incidental damage or destruction caused by accidents or vandalism
for which Tenant is responsible under Paragraph 7) in the amount of the full
replacement value thereof, providing protection against those perils included
within the classification of "all risks" insurance and flood and/or earthquake
insurance, if available, plus a policy of rental income insurance in the amount
of one hundred (100%) percent of twelve (12) months Basic Rent, plus sums paid
as Additional Rent. If such insurance cost is increased due to Tenant's use of
the Premises, Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord the full cost of such increase.
Tenant shall have no interest in nor any right to the proceeds of any insurance
procured by Landlord for the Premises.
Landlord and Tenant do each hereby respectively release the other, to
the extent of insurance coverage of the releasing party, from any liability for
loss or damage caused by fire or any of the extended coverage casualties
included in the releasing party's insurance policies to be maintained pursuant
to this Lease, irrespective of the cause of such fire or casualty; provided,
however, that if the insurance policy of either releasing party prohibits such
waiver, then this waiver shall not take effect until consent to such waiver is
obtained. If such waiver is so prohibited, the insured party affected shall
promptly notify the other party thereof.
13. INDEMNIFICATION Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant and Tenant
hereby waives all claims against Landlord for any injury to or death of any
person or damage to or destruction of property in or about the Premises by or
from any cause whatsoever, including, without limitation, gas, fire, oil,
electricity or leakage of any character from the roof, walls, basement or other
portion of the Premises but excluding, however, the willful misconduct or
negligence of Landlord, its agents, servants, employees, invitees, or
contractors of which negligence Landlord has knowledge and reasonable time to
correct. Except as to injury to persons or damage to property to the extent
arising from the willful misconduct or the negligence of Landlord, Tenant shall
hold Landlord harmless from and defend Landlord against any and all expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, in connection therewith, arising out of
any injury to or death of any person or damage to or destruction of property
occurring in, on or about the Premises, or any part thereof, from any cause
whatsoever.
14. COMPLIANCE With respect to the Premises, Tenant, at its sole cost and
expense, shall promptly comply with all laws, statutes, ordinances and
governmental rules, regulations or requirements now or hereafter in effect; with
the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or
hereafter constituted; and with any direction or occupancy certificate issued
pursuant to law by any public officer; provided,however, that no such failure
shall be deemed a breach of the provisions if Tenant, immediately upon
notification, commences to remedy or rectify said failure. The judgment of any
court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any action against
Tenant, whether Landlord be a party thereto or not, that Tenant has violated any
such law, statute, ordinance or governmental rule, regulation, requirement,
direction or provision, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and
Tenant. Tenant shall, at its sole cost and expense, comply with any and all
requirements pertaining to said Premises, of any insurance organization or
company, necessary for the maintenance of reasonable fire and public liability
insurance covering requirements pertaining to said Premises, of any insurance

event that Tenant shall not, within ten (10) days following the imposition of
such lien, cause the same to be released of record, Landlord shall have, in
addition to all other remedies provided herein and by law, the right, but no
obligation, to cause the same to be released by such means as it shall deem
proper, including payment of the claim giving rise to such lien. All sums paid
by Landlord for such purpose, and all expenses incurred by it in connection
therewith, shall be payable to Landlord by Tenant on demand with interest at the
prime rate of interest as quoted by the Bank of America.
16. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING Tenant shall not assign, transfer, or
hypothecate the leasehold estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, and
shall not sublet the Premises, or any part thereof, or any right or privilege
appurtenant thereto, or suffer any other person or entity to occupy or use the
Premises, or any portion thereof, without, in each case, the prior written
consent of Landlord which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. As a
condition for granting this consent to any assignment, transfer, or subletting,
Landlord may require that Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord, as additional rent,
all rents or additional consideration received by Tenant from its assignees,
transferees, or subtenants in excess of the rent payable by Tenant to Landlord
hereunder. Tenant shall, by thirty (30) days written notice, advise Landlord of
its intent to assign or transfer Tenant's interest in the Lease or sublet the
Premises or any portion thereof for any part of the term hereof. Within thirty
(30) days after receipt of said written notice, Landlord may, in its sole
discretion, elect to terminate this Lease as to the portion of the Premises
described in Tenant's notice on the date specified in Tenant's notice by giving
written notice of such election to terminate. If no such notice to terminate is
given to Tenant within said thirty (30) day period, Tenant may proceed to locate
an acceptable sublessee, assignee, or other transferee for presentment to
Landlord for Landlord's approval, all in accordance with the terms, covenants,
and conditions of this paragraph 16. If Tenant intends to sublet the entire
Premises and Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall be
terminated on the date specified in Tenant's notice. If, however, this Lease
shall terminate pursuant to the foregoing with respect to less than all the
Premises, the rent, as defined and reserved hereinabove shall be adjusted on a
pro rata basis to the number of square feet retained by Tenant, and this Lease
as so amended shall continue in full force and effect. In the event Tenant is
allowed to assign, transfer or sublet the whole or any part of the Premises,
with the prior written
Initials: [Initialed]
page 4 of 8 Initials: [Initialed]
5
consent of Landlord, no assignee, transferee or subtenant shall assign or
transfer this Lease, either in whole or in part, or sublet the whole or any
part of the Premises, without also having obtained the prior written consent of
Landlord which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. A consent of
Landlord to one assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or
use by any other person shall not release Tenant from any of Tenant's
obligations hereunder or be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent similar or
dissimilar assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting, occupation or use by
any other person. Any such assignment, transfer, hypothecation, subletting,
occupation or use without such consent shall be void and shall constitute a
breach of this Lease by Tenant and shall, at the option of Landlord exercised
by written notice to Tenant, terminate this Lease. The leasehold estate under
this Lease shall not, nor shall any interest therein, be assignable for any
purpose by operation of law without the written consent of Landlord. As a
condition to its consent, Landlord may require Tenant to pay all expenses in
connection with the assignment, and Landlord may require Tenant's assignee or
transferee (or other assignees or transferees) to assume in writing all of the
obligations under this Lease and for Tenant to remain liable to landlord under
the Lease.
17. SUBORDINATION AND MORTGAGES In the event Landlord's title or leasehold
interest is now or hereafter encumbered by a deed of trust, upon the interest of
landlord in the land and buildings in which the demised Premises are located,
to secure a loan from a lender (hereinafter referred to as "Lender") to
Landlord, Tenant shall, at the request of Landlord or Lender, execute in writing
an agreement subordinating its rights under this Lease to the lien of such
deed or trust or, if so requested, agreeing that the lien of Lender's deed of
Trust shall be or remain subject and subordinate to the rights of Tenant under
this Lease, and provided Lender executes a reasonable non-disturbance
agreement. Notwithstanding any such subordination, Tenant's possession under
this Lease shall not be disturbed if Tenant is not in default and so long as
Tenant shall pay all rent and observe and perform all of the provisions set
forth in this Lease.
18. ENTRY BY LANDLORD Landlord reserves, and shall at all reasonable times
after at least 24 hours notice (except in emergencies) have, the right to enter
the Premises to inspect them; to perform any services to be provided by
Landlord hereunder; to make repairs or provide any services to a contiguous
tenant(s); to submit the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagers or
tenants; to post notices of nonresponsibility; and to alter, improve or repair
the Premises or other parts of the building, all without abatement of rent, and
may erect scaffolding and other necessary structures in or through the Premises
where reasonably required by the character of the work to be performed;
provided, however, that the business of Tenant shall be interfered with to the
least extent that is reasonably practical. Any entry to the Premises by Landlord
for the purposes provided for herein shall not under any circumstances be
construed or deemed to be a forcible or unlawful entry into or a detainer of
the Premises or an eviction, actual or constructive, of Tenant from the
Premises or any portion thereof.
19. BANKRUPTCY AND DEFAULT The commencement of a bankruptcy action or
liquidation action or reorganization action or insolvency action or an
assignment of or by Tenant for the benefit of creditors, or any similar action
undertaken by Tenant, or the insolvency of Tenant, shall, at Landlord's option,
constitute a breach of this Lease by Tenant. If the trustee or receiver
appointed to serve during a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, insolvency
or similar action elects to reject Tenant's unexpired Lease, the trustee or
receiver shall notify Landlord in writing of its election within thirty (30)
days after an order for relief in a liquidation action or within thirty (30)
days after the commencement of any action.
Within thirty (30) days after court approval of the assumption of this
Lease, the trustee or receiver shall cure (or provide adequate assurance to the
reasonable satisfaction of Landlord that the trustee or receiver shall cure)
and all previous defaults under the unexpired Lease and shall compensate
Landlord for all actual pecuniary loss and shall provide adequate assurance of
future performance under said Lease to the reasonable satisfaction of Landlord.
Adequate assurance of future performance as used herein, includes, but shall not
be limited to: (i) assurance of source and payment of rent, and other
consideration due under this Lease; (ii) assurance that the assumption or
assignment of this Lease will not breach substantially any provision, such as
radius, location, use, or exclusivity provision, in any agreement relating to
the above described Premises.
Nothing contained in this section shall affect the existing right of
Landlord to refuse to accept an assignment upon commencement of or in
connection with a bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or insolvency action
or an assignment of Tenant for the benefit of creditors or other similar act.
Nothing contained in this Lease shall be construed as giving or granting or
creating an equity in the demised Premises to Tenant. In no event shall the
leasehold estate under this Lease, or any interest therein, be assigned by
voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding without the prior written
consent of landlord. In no event shall this Lease or any rights or privileges
hereunder be an asset of Tenant under any bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization proceedings.
The failure to perform or honor any covenant, condition or
representation made under this Lease shall constitute a default hereunder by
Tenant upon expiration of the appropriate grace period hereinafter provided.
Tenant shall have a period of five (5) days from the date of written notice from
Landlord within which to cure any default in the payment of rental or adjustment
thereto. Tenant shall have a period of thirty (30) days from the date of written
notice from Landlord within which to cure any other default under this Lease;
provided, however, that if the nature of Tenant's failure is such that more than
thirty (30) days is reasonably required to cure the same, Tenant shall not be in
default so long as Tenant commences performance within such thirty (30) day
period and thereafter prosecutes the same to completion. Upon an uncured default
of this Lease by Tenant, Landlord shall have the following rights and remedies
in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Landlord at law or in
equity:
(a) The rights and remedies provided for by California Civil Code
Section 1951.2, including but not limited to, recovery of the worth at the time
of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of rental loss for the same period
that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided, as computed pursuant to
subsection (b) of said Section 1951.2. Any proof by Tenant under subparagraphs
(2) and (3) of Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code of the amount of
rental loss that could be reasonably avoided shall be made in the following
manner: Landlord and Tenant shall each select a licensed real estate broker in
the business of renting property of the same type and use as the Premises and
in the same geographic vicinity. Such two real estate brokers shall select a
third licensed real estate broker, and the three licensed real estate brokers
so selected shall determine the amount of the rental loss that could be
reasonably avoided form the balance of the term of this Lease after the time of
award. The decision of the majority of said licensed real estate brokers shall
be final and binding upon the parties hereto.
(b) The rights and remedies provided by California Civil Code Section
1951.4 which allows Landlord to continue the Lease in effect and to enforce all
of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover
rent as it becomes due, for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant's
right to possession; acts of maintenance or preservation, efforts to relet the
Premises, or the appointment of a receiver upon Landlord's initiative to
protect its interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of
Tenant's right to possession.
(c) The right to terminate this Lease by giving notice to Tenant in
accordance with applicable law.
(d) The right and power, to the extent permitted by law, to enter the
Premises and remove therefrom all persons and property, to store such property
in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Tenant,
and to sell such property and apply such proceeds therefrom pursuant to
applicable California law. Landlord, may from time to time sublet the Premises
or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may extend beyond the term of
this Lease) and at such rent and such other terms as Landlord in its reasonable
sole discretion may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and
repairs to the Premises. Upon each subletting, (i) Tenant shall be immediately
liable to pay Landlord, in addition to indebtedness other than rent due
hereunder, the reasonable cost of such subletting, including, but not limited to
reasonable attorneys' fees, and any real estate commissions actually paid, and
the cost of such reasonable alterations and repairs incurred by Landlord and the
amount, if any, by which the rent hereunder for the period of such subletting
(to the extent such period does not exceed the term hereof) exceeds the amount
to be paid as rent for the Premises for such period or (ii) at the option of
Landlord, rents received from such subletting shall be applied first to payment
of indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second,
to the payment of any costs of such subletting and of such alterations and
repairs; third to payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and the residue, if
any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same
becomes due hereunder. If Tenant has been credited with any rent to be received
by such subletting under option (i) and such rent shall not be promptly paid to
Landlord by the subtenants), or if such rentals received from such subletting
under option (ii) during any month be less than that to be paid during that
month by Tenant hereunder. Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord.
Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No taking possession of
the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to
terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to
Tenant. Notwithstanding any such subletting without termination, Landlord may at
any time hereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach.
(e) The right to have a receiver appointed for Tenant upon application
by Landlord, to take possession of the Premises and to apply any rental
collected from the Premises and to exercise all other rights and remedies
granted to Landlord pursuant to subparagraph d. above (except that Tenant may
vacate so long as it pays rent, provides an on-site security guard during
normal business hours from Monday through Friday, and otherwise performs its
obligations hereunder.)
20. ABANDONMENT Tenant shall not vacate or abandon the Premises at any time
during the term of this Lease and if Tenant shall abandon, vacate or surrender
said Premises, or be dispossessed by the process of law, or otherwise, any
personal property belonging to Tenant and left on the Premises shall be deemed
to be abandoned, at the option of Landlord, except such property as may be
mortgaged to Landlord.
21. DESTRUCTION In the event the Premises are destroyed in whole or in part
from any cause, except for routine maintenance and repairs and incidental
Initials: [Initialed]
-------------
Initials: [Initialed]
-------------
6
damage and destruction caused from vandalism and accidents for which Tenant is
responsible under Xxxxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxx may, at its option:
(a) Rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to the
damage or destruction, or
(b) Terminate this Lease. (providing that the Premises is damaged to
the extent of 33 1/3% of the replacement cost)
If Landlord does not give Tenant notice in writing within thirty (30)
days from the destruction of the Premises of its election to either rebuild and
restore them, or to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall be deemed to have
elected to rebuild or restore them, in which event Landlord agrees, at its
expense except for any deductible, which is the responsibility of Tenant,
promptly to rebuild or restore the Premises to their condition prior to the
damage or destruction. Tenant shall be entitled to a reduction in rent while
such repair is being made in the proportion that the area of the Premises
rendered untenantable by such damage bears to the total area of the Premises.
Landlord initially estimates that the rebuilding or restoration will exceed 180
days or if Landlord does not complete the rebuilding or restoration within one
hundred eighty (180) days following the date of destruction (such period of
time to be extended for delays caused by the fault or neglect of Tenant or
because of Acts of God, acts of public agencies, labor disputes, strikes,
fires, freight embargos, rainy or stormy weather, inability to obtain
materials, supplies or fuels, acts of contractors or subcontractors, or delay
of the contractors or subcontractors due to such causes or other contingencies
beyond the control of Landlord), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate
this Lease by giving fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Landlord.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Landlord's obligation to
rebuild or restore shall be limited to the building and interior improvements
constructed by Landlord as they existed as of the commencement date of the
Lease and shall not include restoration of Tenant's trade fixtures, equipment,
merchandise, or any improvements, alterations or additions made by Tenant to
the Premises, which Tenant shall forthwith replace or fully repair at Tenant's
sole cost and expense provided this Lease is not cancelled according to the
provisions above.
Unless this Lease is terminated pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. Tenant hereby expressly
waives the provisions of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, in Section 1933,
Subdivision 4 of the California Civil Code.
In the event that the building in which the Premises are situated is
damaged or destroyed to the extent of not less than 33-1/3% of the replacement
cost thereof, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease, whether the Premises
be injured or not.
22. EMINENT DOMAIN. If all or any part of the Premises shall be taken by any
public or quasi-public authority under the power of eminent domain or
conveyance in lieu thereof, this Lease shall terminate as to any portion of the
Premises so taken or conveyed on the date when title vests in the condemnor,
and Landlord shall be entitled to any and all payment, income, rent, award, or
any interest therein whatsoever which may be paid or made in connection with
such taking or conveyance, and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord or
otherwise for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease. Notwithstanding
the foregoing paragraph, any compensation specifically awarded Tenant for loss
of business, Tenant's personal property, moving cost and/or loss of goodwill,
shall be and remain the property of Tenant.
If any action or proceeding is commenced for such taking of the
Premises or any part thereof, or if Landlord is advised in writing by any
entity or body having the right or power of condemnation of its intention to
condemn the premises or any portion thereof, then Landlord shall have the right
to terminate this Lease by giving Tenant written notice thereof within sixty
(60) days of the date of receipt of said written advice, or commencement of
said action or proceeding, or taking conveyance, which termination shall take
place as of the first to occur of the last day of the calendar month next
following the month in which such notice is given or the date on which title to
the Premises shall vest in the condemnor.
In the event of such a partial taking or conveyance of the Premises, if
the portion of the Premises taken or conveyed is so substantial that the Tenant
can no longer reasonably conduct its business, Tenant shall have the privilege
of terminating this Lease within sixty (60) days from the date of such taking
or conveyance, upon written notice to Landlord of its intention so to do, and
upon giving of such notice this Lease shall terminate on the last day of the
calendar month next following the month in which such notice is given, upon
payment by Tenant of the rent from the date of such taking or conveyance to the
date of termination.
If a portion of the Premises be taken by condemnation or conveyance in
lieu thereof and neither Landlord nor Tenant shall terminate this Lease as
provided herein, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect as to the
part of the Premises not so taken or conveyed, and the rent herein shall be
apportioned as of the date of such taking or conveyance so that thereafter the
rent to be paid by Tenant shall be in the ratio that the area of the portion of
the Premises not so taken or conveyed bears to the total area of the Premises
prior to such taking.
23. SALE OR CONVEYANCE BY LANDLORD In the event of a sale or conveyance of
the Premises or any interest therein, by any owner of the reversion then
constituting Landlord, the transferor shall thereby be released from any
further liability upon any of the terms, covenants or conditions (express or
implied) herein contained in favor of Tenant, and in such event, insofar as
such transfer is concerned, Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility
of the successor in interest of such transferor in and to the Premises and this
Lease for the performance of this Lease following such transfer. This Lease
shall not be affected by any such sale or conveyance, and Tenant agrees to
attorn to the successor in interest of such transferor.
24. ATTORNMENT TO LENDER OR THIRD PARTY In the event the interest of Landlord
in the land and buildings in which the leased Premises are located (whether
such interest of a Landlord is a fee title interest or a leasehold interest) is
encumbered by deed of trust, and such interest is acquired by the lender or any
third party through judicial foreclosure or by exercise of a power of sale at
private trustee's foreclosure sale, Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to the
purchaser at any such foreclosure sale and to recognize such purchaser as the
Landlord under this Lease. In the event the lien of the deed of trust securing
the loan from a Lender to Landlord is prior and paramount to the Lease, this
Lease shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect for the remainder of
the unexpired term hereof, at the same rental herein reserved and upon all the
other terms, conditions and covenants herein contained.
25. HOLDING OVER Any holding over by Tenant after expiration or other
termination of the term of this Lease with the written consent of Landlord
delivered to Tenant shall not constitute a renewal or extension of the Lease or
give Tenant any rights in or to the leased Premises except as expressly
provided in this Lease. Any holding over after the expiration or other
termination of the term of this Lease, with the consent of Landlord, shall be
construed to be a tenancy from month to month, on the same terms and conditions
herein specified insofar as applicable except that the monthly Basic Rent shall
be increased to an amount equal to one hundred fifty (150%) percent of the
monthly Basic Rent required during the last month of the Lease term; provided,
however, during the first 60 days of the Holdover Period, the Basic Rent shall
be increased to 120% of the last month's rate.
26. CERTIFICATE OF ESTOPPEL Tenant shall at any time upon not less than ten
(10) days prior written notice to Landlord execute, acknowledge and deliver to
Landlord a statement in writing (i) certifying that this Lease is unmodified
and in full force and effect (or, if modified, stating the nature of such
modification and certifying that this Lease, as so modified, is in full force
and effect) and the date to which the rent and other charges are paid in
advance, if any, and (ii) acknowledging that there are not, to Tenant's
knowledge, any uncured defaults on the part of Landlord hereunder, or
specifying such defaults, if any, are claimed. Any such statement may be
conclusively relied upon by any prospective purchaser or encumbrancer of the
Premises. Tenant's failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be
conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force and effect, without
modification except as may be represented by Landlord; that there are no
uncured defaults in Landlord's performance, and that not more than one month's
rent has been paid in advance.
27. CONSTRUCTION CHANGES It is understood that the description of the
Premises and the location of ductwork, plumbing and other facilities therein
are subject to such minor changes as Landlord or Landlord's architect
determines to be desirable in the course of construction of the Premises, and
no such changes shall affect this Lease or entitle Tenant to any reduction of
rent hereunder or result in any liability of Landlord to the Tenant. Landlord
does not guarantee the accuracy of any drawings supplied to Tenant and
verification of the accuracy of such drawings rests with Tenant.
28. RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM All terms, covenants and conditions of this
Lease to be performed or observed by Tenant shall be performed or observed by
Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any reduction of rent. If
Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, or other rent, required to be paid
by it hereunder or shall fail to perform any other term or covenant hereunder
on its part to be performed, and such failure shall continue for five (5) days
after written notice thereof by Landlord, Landlord, without waiving or
releasing Tenant from any obligation of Tenant hereunder, may, but shall not be
obliged to, make any such payment or perform any such other term or covenant on
Tenant's part to be performed. All sums so paid by landlord and all necessary
costs of such performance by Landlord together with interest thereon at the
rate of the prime rate of interest per annum as quoted by the Bank of America
from the date of such payment on performance by Landlord, shall be paid (and
Tenant covenants to make such payment) to Landlord on demand by Landlord, and
Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the
same rights and remedies in the event of nonpayment by Tenant as in the case of
failure by Tenant in the payment of rent hereunder.
29. ATTORNEYS' FEES
A. In the event that either Landlord or Tenant should bring suit for the
possession of the Premises, for the recovery of any sum due under this Lease,
or because of the breach of any provision of this Lease, or for any other
relief against the other party hereunder, then all costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys' fees,

incurred by the prevailing party therein shall be paid by the other party, which
obligation on the part of the other party shall be deemed to have accrued on the
date of the commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not
the action is prosecuted to judgment.
B. Should Landlord be named as a defendant in any suit brought against
Tenant in connection with or arising out of Tenant's occupancy hereunder, Tenant
shall pay to Landlord its costs and expenses incurred in such suit, including a
reasonable attorney's fee.
30. WAIVER The waiver by either party of the other party's failure to perform
or observe any term, covenant or condition herein contained to be performed or
observed by such waiving party shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term,
covenant or condition or of any subsequent failure of the party failing to
perform or observe the same or any other such term, covenant or condition
therein contained, and no custom or practice which may develop between the
parties hereto during the term hereof shall be deemed a waiver of, or in any way
affect, the right of either party to insist upon performance and observance by
the other party in strict accordance with the terms hereof.
31. NOTICES All notices, demands, requests, advices or designations which may
be or are required to be given by either party to the other hereunder shall be
in writing. All notices, demands, requests, advices or designations by Landlord
to Tenant shall be sufficiently given, made or delivered if personally served on
Tenant by leaving the same at the Premises of if sent by United States certified
or registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Tenant at the Premises. All
notices, demands, requests, advices or designations by Tenant to Landlord shall
be sent by United States certified or registered mail, postage prepaid,
addressed to Landlord at the offices of Xxxxx/Xxxxxxxxx, 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
Xxxx., Xxxxx 000, Xxxxx Xxxxx, XX 00000. Each notice, request, demand, advice or
designation referred to in this paragraph shall be deemed received on the date
of the personal service or mailing thereof in the manner herein provided, as the
case may be.
32. EXAMINATION OF LEASE Submission of this instrument for examination or
signature by Tenant does not constitute a reservation of or option for lease,
and this instrument is not effective as a lease or otherwise until its execution
and delivery by both Landlord and Tenant.
33. DEFAULT BY LANDLORD Landlord shall not be in default unless Landlord fails
to perform obligations required of Landlord within a reasonable time, but in no
event earlier than (30) days after written notice by Tenant to Landlord and to
the holder of any first mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises whose
name and address shall have heretofore been furnished to Tenant in writing,
specifying wherein Landlord has failed to perform such obligations; provided,
however, that if the nature of Landlord's obligations is such that more than
thirty (30) days are required for performance, then Landlord shall not be in
default if Landlord commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and
thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion.
34 CORPORATE AUTHORITY If Tenant is a corporation (or a partnership), each
individual executing this Lease on behalf of said corporation (or partnership)
represents and warrants that he is duly authorized to execute and deliver this
Lease on behalf of said corporation (or partnership) in accordance with the
by-laws of said corporation (or partnership in accordance with the partnership
agreement) and that this Lease is binding upon said corporation (or partnership)
in accordance with its terms. If Tenant is a corporation, Tenant shall, within

the Premises or any exterior windows of the Premises without the written consent

remove such sign and repair all damage in such a manner as to restore all

40. "AS-IS" BASIS: Subject only to Paragraphs 41 ("Punch List") and 42
("Maintenance of the Premises") and to Landlord making the improvements shown on
Exhibit B attached hereto, it is hereby agreed that the Premises leased
hereunder is leased strictly on an "as-is" basis and in its present condition
and in the configuration as shown on Exhibit B attached hereto, and by reference
made a part hereof. Except as noted herein, it is specifically agreed between
the parties that after Landlord makes the interior improvements as shown on
Exhibit B, Landlord shall not be required to make, nor be responsible for any
cost, in connection with any repair, restoration, and/or improvement to the
Premises in order for this Lease to commence, or thereafter, throughout the Term
of this Lease. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary within this Lease,
Landlord makes no warranty or representation of any kind or nature whatsoever as

41. PUNCH LIST: In addition to and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in Paragraphs 5 and 40 of this Lease, Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after

soon as reasonably possible thereafter, Landlord, or one of Landlord's
representatives (if so approved by Landlord), and Tenant shall conduct a joint
walk-through of the Premises (if Landlord so requires), and inspect such Tenant
Improvements, using their best efforts to agree on the incomplete or defective

shall sign, a list of all "punch list" items which the parties reasonably agree
are to be corrected by Landlord (but which shall exclude any damage or defects
caused by Tenant, its employees, agents or parties Tenant has contracted with to
work on the Premises). Landlord shall have thirty (30) days thereafter (or
longer if necessary, provided Landlord is diligently pursuing the completion of
same) to complete, at Landlord's expense, the "punch list" items without the
Commencement Date of the Lease and Tenant's obligation to pay Rental thereunder

exterior walls that does not endanger the structural integrity of the building,
or which is not life threatening, shall not be considered material, nor shall
Landlord be responsible for repair of same. This Paragraph shall be of no force
and effect if Tenant shall fail to give any such notice to Landlord within
thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date of this Lease.
42. MAINTENANCE OF THE PREMISES: In addition to, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in Xxxxxxxxx 0, Xxxxxxxx shall repair damage to the

cost and expense provided Tenant has not caused such damage, in which event
Tenant shall be responsible for 100 percent of any such costs for repair or
damage so caused by the Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a crack in the
foundation, or exterior walls that does not endanger the structural integrity of
the building, or which is not life-threatening, shall not be considered
material, nor shall Landlord be responsible for repair of same.
43. CONSENT: Whenever the consent of one party to the other is required
hereunder, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
44. AUTHORITY TO EXECUTE: The parties executing this Lease Agreement hereby
warrant and represent that they are properly authorized to execute this Lease

operating expense in accordance with standard accounting practices, provided,
that such amortization is not at a rate greater than the anticipated savings in

of, subsection 1 of Section 1932 and Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California
Civil Code and under any similar law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in

47. UTILITIES OF THE BUILDING IN WHICH THE PREMISES ARE LOCATED: As
Additional Rent and in accordance with Paragraph 4D of this Lease Tenant shall
pay its proportionate share (calculated on a square footage or other equitable

utility services to the Premises when such interruption or failure is caused by
accident, breakage, repair, strikes, lockouts, or other labor disturbances or

beyond the reasonable control of Landlord.
Provided that Tenant is not in default in the performance or observance of any
of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease to be performed or observed
by it, Landlord shall furnish to the Premises between the hours of 8:00 am and
6:00 pm, Mondays through Fridays (holidays excepted) and subject to the rules
and regulations of the Common Area hereinbefore referred to, reasonable
quantities of water, gas and electricity suitable for the intended use of the
Premises and heat and air-conditioning required in Landlord's judgment for the
comfortable use and occupation of the Premises for such purposes. Tenant agrees
that at all times it will cooperate fully with Landlord and abide by all
regulations and requirements that Landlord may prescribe for the proper
functioning and protection of the building heating, ventilating and
air-conditioning systems. Whenever heat generating machines, equipment, or any
other devices (including exhaust fans) are used in the Premises by Tenant which
affect the temperature or otherwise maintained by the air-conditioning system,
Landlord shall have the right to install supplementary air-conditioning units in
the Premises and the cost thereof, including the cost of installation and the

gas, water or air-conditioning usually furnished or supplied to premises being
used as general office space, or connect with electric current (except through
existing electrical outlets in the Premises), or with gas or water pipes any
apparatus or device for the purposes of using electric current, gas, or water.
If Tenant shall require water, gas, or electric current in excess of that
usually furnished or supplied to premises being used as general office space,
Tenant shall first obtain the written consent of Landlord, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld and Landlord may cause an electric current, gas or
water meter to be installed in the Premises in order to measure the amount of
electric current, gas or water consumed for any such excess use. The cost of any
such meter and of the installation, maintenance and repair thereof, all charges
for such excess water, gas and electric current consumed (as shown by such
meters and at the rates then charged by the furnishing public utility); and any
additional expense incurred by Landlord in keeping account of electric current,
gas, or water so consumed shall be paid by Tenant, and Tenant agrees to pay
Landlord therefor promptly upon demand by Landlord.
48. PARKING: Tenant shall have the right to the nonexclusive use of forty
nine (49) parking spaces in the common parking area of the building. Tenant
agrees that Tenant, Tenant's employees, agents, representatives, and/or invitees
shall not use parking spaces in excess of said 49 parking spaces allocated to
Tenant hereunder. Landlord shall have the right, at Landlord's sole discretion,
to specifically designate the location of Tenant's parking spaces within the
common parking area of the building in the event of a dispute among the tenants
occupying the building referred to herein, in which event Tenant agrees that
Tenant, Tenant's employees, agents, representatives and/or invitees shall not
use any parking spaces other than those parking spaces specifically designated
by Landlord for Tenant's use. Said parking spaces, if specifically designated by
Landlord to Tenant, may be relocated by Landlord at any time, and from time to
time.
Page 11 Initial: [Initialed]
--------------
12
Landlord reserves the right, at Landlord's sole discretion, to rescind any
specific designation of parking spaces, thereby returning Tenant's parking
spaces to the common parking area. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of
any change in Tenant's parking spaces. Tenant shall not, at any time, park, or
permit to be parked, any trucks or vehicles adjacent to the loading area so as
to interfere in any way with the use of such areas, nor shall Tenant, at any
time, park or permit the parking of Tenant's trucks and other vehicles or the
trucks and vehicles of Tenant's suppliers or others, in any portion of the
common areas not designated by Landlord for such use by Tenant. Tenant shall not
park nor permit to be parked, any inoperative vehicles or equipment on any
portion of the common parking area or other common areas of the building. Tenant
agrees to assume responsibility for compliance by its employees with the parking
provision contained herein. If Tenant or its employees park in other than
designated parking areas, then Landlord may charge Tenant, as an additional
charge, and Tenant agrees to pay Ten Dollars ($10.00) per day for each day or
partial day each such vehicle is parking in any area other than that designated.
Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord, at Tenant's sole expense, to tow away from
the building any vehicle belonging to Tenant or Tenant's employees parked in
violation of these provisions, or to attach violation stickers or notices to
such vehicles. Tenant shall use the parking area for vehicle parking only and
shall not use the parking areas for storage.
49. ASSESSMENT CREDITS: The demised property herein may be subject to a
special assessment levied by the City of Santa Xxxxx as part of an Improvement
District. As a part of said special assessment proceedings (if any), additional
bonds were or may be sold and assessments were or may be levied to provide for
construction contingencies and reserve funds. Interest shall be earned on such
funds created for contingencies and on reserve funds which will be credited for
the benefit of said assessment district. To the extent surpluses are created in
said district through unused contingency funds, interest earnings or reserve
funds, such surpluses shall be deemed the property of Landlord. Notwithstanding
that such surpluses may be credited on assessments otherwise due against the
Leased Premises, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent if, and at the
time of any such credit of surpluses, an amount equal to all such surpluses so
credited. For example: if (i) the property is subject to an annual assessment of
$1,000.00, and (ii) a surplus of $200.00 is credited towards the current year's
assessment which reduces the assessment amount shown on the property tax xxxx
from $1,000.00 to $800.00, Tenant shall, upon receipt of notice from Landlord,
pay to Landlord said $200.00 credit as Additional Rent.
50. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING (CONTINUED):
A. In addition to and notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Paragraph 16 of this Lease, Landlord hereby agrees to
consent to Tenant's assigning or subletting said Lease to: (i) any
parent or subsidiary corporation, or corporation with which Tenant
merges or consolidates provided that the net worth of said parent or
subsidiary corporation, or said corporation has a net worth equal to or
greater than the net worth of Tenant at the time of such assignment,
merger, or consolidation; or (ii) any third party or entity to whom
Tenant sells all or substantially all of its assets; provided, that the
net worth of the resulting or acquiring corporation has a net worth
after the merger, consolidation or acquisition equal to or greater than
the net worth of Tenant at the time of such merger, consolidation or
acquisition. No such assignment or subletting will release the Tenant
from its liability and responsibility under this Lease to the extent
Tenant continues in existence following such transaction.
Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be required to (a) give Landlord
written notice prior to such assignment or subletting to any party as
described in (i) and (ii) above, and (b) execute Landlord's consent
document prepared by Landlord reflecting the assignment or subletting.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Lease, it is hereby agreed that such assignee shall not have the
right or be allowed to install any tank farm for the storage or use of
Hazardous Materials (as hereinafter defined).
B. Any and all sublease agreement(s) between Tenant and any
and all subtenant(s) (which agreements must be consented to by Landlord,
pursuant to the requirements of this Lease) shall contain the following
language:
"If Landlord and Tenant jointly and voluntarily elect,
for any reason whatsoever, to terminate the Master Lease prior to the
scheduled Master Lease termination date, then this Sublease (if then
still in effect) shall terminate concurrently with the termination of
the Master Lease. Subtenant expressly acknowledges and agrees that (1)
the voluntary termination of the Master Lease by Landlord and Tenant and
the resulting termination of this Sublease shall not give Subtenant any
right or power to make any legal or equitable claim against Landlord,
including without limitation any claim for interference with contract or
interference with prospective economic advantage, and (2) Subtenant
hereby waives any and all rights it may have under law or at equity
against Landlord to challenge such an early termination of the Sublease,
and unconditionally releases and relieves Landlord, and its
Page 12 Initial: [Initialed]
--------------
13
officers, directors, employees and agents, from any and all claims,
demands, and/or causes of action whatsoever (collectively, "Claims"),
whether such matters are known or unknown, latent or apparent, suspected
or unsuspected, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which Subtenant may have
arising out of or in connection with any such early termination of this
Sublease. Subtenant knowingly and intentionally waives any and all
protection which is or may be given by Section 1542 of the California
Civil Code which provides as follows: "A general release does not extend
to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his
favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must
have materially affected his settlement with debtor.
The term of this Sublease is therefore subject to early
termination. Subtenant's initials here below evidence (a) Subtenant's
consideration of and agreement to this early termination provision, (b)
Subtenant's acknowledgment that, in determining the net benefits to be
derived by Subtenant under the terms of this Sublease, Subtenant has
anticipated the potential for early termination, and (c) Subtenant's
agreement to the general waiver and release of Claims above.

B. Tenant shall obtain Landlord's written consent, which may be

Materials Activities, Landlord in addition to any other rights it may have under
this Lease or under Environmental Laws or other laws, may enter upon the
Property and conduct inspection, sampling and analysis, including but not
limited to obtaining and analyzing samples of soil and groundwater, for the
purpose of determining the nature and extent of such contamination. Tenant shall
promptly reimburse Landlord for the costs of such an investigation, including
but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees Landlord incurs with respect to
such investigation, that discloses Hazardous Materials contamination for which
Tenant is liable under this Lease. Except as may be required of Tenant by
applicable Environmental Laws, Tenant shall not perform any sampling, testing,
or drilling to identify the presence of any Hazardous Materials at the property,
without Landlord's prior written consent which may be withheld in Landlord's
discretion. Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with copies of any claims,
notices, work plans, data and reports prepared, received or submitted in
connection with any sampling, testing or drilling performed pursuant to the
preceding sentence.
E. Tenant shall indemnify, defend (with legal counsel acceptable to

Materials Activities; (ii) releases or discharges of Hazardous Materials at the
Property, which occur during the Term of this Lease, (iii) any Hazardous
Materials contamination caused by Tenant prior to the Commencement Date of the
Lease; or (iv) the breach of any obligation of Tenant under this Paragraph 45

and fully reimburse Landlord for losses in or reductions to rental income, and
diminution in fair market value of the Property. Tenant's Environmental
Indemnification shall further include but is not limited to the obligation to

all environmental investigation, removal, remediation, monitoring, reporting,
closure activities, or other environmental response action (collectively,
"Response Actions"). Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with copies of any
claims, notices, work plans, data and reports prepared, received or submitted in
connection with any Response Actions.
It is agreed that the Tenant's responsibilities related to Hazardous Materials
will survive the expiration or termination of this Lease and that Landlord may
obtain specific performance of Tenant's responsibilities under this Paragraph
51.
52. CROSS DEFAULT: It is understood that Landlord and Tenant have previously
entered into another lease dated May 10, 1993 for premises contiguous to the

As a material part of the consideration for the execution if this Lease by
Landlord, it is agreed between Landlord and Tenant that a default under this

made by or for tenant; or (ii) any permit request made to a governing agency by
