Tenant shall promptly comply with the requirements of any board of fire underwriters or other similar body now or hereafter constituted.

Base Rent for the first full month of the Term shall be paid by Tenant upon the Effective Date of this Lease. If the obligation for payment of Base Rent commences on a date other than the first day of a calendar month, then Base Rent shall be prorated and the prorated installment shall be paid to Landlord by Tenant upon the Effective Date.

8. | BASIC OPERATING COST: |
8.1 Basic Operating Cost. In addition to the Base Rent required to be paid hereunder, Tenant shall pay as Additional Rent, Xxxxxx’s Proportionate Share of the Basic Operating Cost in the manner set forth below. Landlord shall account for each item of Basic Operating Cost as a cost attributable to the Building or to the Project, and unless provided to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay the applicable Tenant’s Proportionate Share of each such Basic Operating Cost, as set forth herein. Basic Operating Cost shall mean all expenses and costs of every kind and nature which Landlord shall pay or become obligated to pay, because of or in connection with the management, maintenance, preservation and operation of the Building or Project and its supporting facilities, including, without limitation, the following:
8.1.1 Taxes. “Taxes”, including, without limitation, all real property taxes, possessory interest taxes, business or license taxes or fees, service payments in lieu of such taxes or fees, annual or periodic license or use fees, excises, transit charges, housing fund assessments, open space charges, assessments, levies, fees or charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind (including fees “in-lieu” of any such tax or assessment) which are assessed, levied, charged, confirmed, or imposed by any public authority upon the Building or Project, its operations or the Rent or any portion or component thereof (all of the foregoing being hereinafter collectively referred to as “real property taxes”), or any tax imposed in substitution, partially or totally, of any tax previously included within the definition of real property taxes, or any additional tax the nature of which was previously included within the definition of real property taxes, except: (a) inheritance or estate taxes imposed upon or assessed against the Building or Project, or any part thereof or interest therein, and (b) an increase in taxes as a result of the sale of the Building or Project or any portion thereof by Landlord which results in the uncapping of any limit or restriction on assessment or rate increase, and (c) taxes computed upon the basis of net income of Landlord or the owner of any interest therein, except as otherwise provided in the following sentence. “Taxes” shall also include any taxes, assessments, or any other fees imposed by any public authority upon or measured by the monthly rental or other charges payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any gross income tax or excise tax levied by the local governmental authority in which the Building or Project is located, the federal government, or any other governmental body with respect to receipt of such rental, or upon, with respect to or by reason of the development, possession, leasing, operation, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, or upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises. In the event Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes may be billed directly to Tenant from the appropriate taxing and/or governmental authority, Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes directly to said taxing and/or governmental authority rather than having Landlord pay said Taxes, requiring reimbursement by Xxxxxx. In the event that it shall not be lawful for Tenant to reimburse Landlord for all or any part of such Taxes, the Base Rent payable to Landlord under this Lease shall be revised to net to Landlord the same net rental after imposition of any such Taxes by Landlord as would have been payable to Landlord prior to the payment of any such Taxes. In addition to and wholly apart from Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Basic Operating Cost, Tenant shall be responsible for, and shall pay prior to delinquency, any taxes or governmental service fees, possessory interest taxes, fees or charges in lieu of any such taxes, capital levies, or other charges imposed upon, levied with respect to or assessed against its personal property, on the value of the alterations, additions or improvements within the Premises, and on Tenant’s interest pursuant to this Lease. To the extent that any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced to Tenant by Landlord.
8.1.2 Insurance. All insurance premiums and costs, including but not limited to, any deductible amounts, premiums and cost of insurance incurred by Landlord, as more fully set forth below.
8.1.3 Repairs and Improvements. Repairs, replacements and general maintenance for the Premises, Building and Project, including, without limitation, those repairs, replacements and general maintenance of the public and common areas of the Project as set forth in Section 11 below (except for those repairs expressly made the financial responsibility of Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, repairs to the extent paid for by proceeds of insurance or by Tenant or other third parties, and alterations attributable solely to other tenants of the Building or Project). Such repairs, replacements, and general maintenance shall include the cost of any capital improvements made to or capital assets acquired for the Project, Building or Premises before or after the Commencement Date that reduce any other Basic Operating Cost, are reasonably necessary for the health and safety of the occupants of the Building or Project, or are made to the Project, Building or Premises by Landlord before or after the Effective Date of this Lease and are required under any governmental law, regulation, or requirements for project approval, such costs or allocable portions thereof to be amortized over such reasonable period as Landlord shall determine, together with interest on the unamortized balance at the “prime rate” charged at the time such improvements or capital assets are constructed or acquired by Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (San Francisco), plus two (2) percentage points, but in no event more than the maximum rate permitted by law.
4
8.1.4 Services. All expenses relating to maintenance, janitorial and service agreements and services, and costs of supplies and equipment used in maintaining the Premises, Building and Project and the equipment therein and the adjacent sidewalks, driveways, parking and service areas, including, without limitation, snow removal, exterior building maintenance, and landscaping.
8.1.5 Utilities. Utilities which benefit all or a portion of the Premises, Building or Project.
8.1.6 Management Fee. A management and accounting cost recovery fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the Basic Operating Cost.

8.1.9 Required Agreements. In the event the Building or Project requires and/or is subject to a joint maintenance agreement, reciprocal easement agreement or any other similar agreement with neighboring property(ies), Tenant agrees to cooperate and bear Tenant’s Proportionate Share of all reasonable costs, obligations, and/or maintenance required thereunder.
In the event that the Building is not fully occupied during any fiscal year of the Term as determined by Landlord, an adjustment shall be made in computing the Basic Operating Cost for such year so that Tenant pays an equitable portion of all variable items of Basic Operating Cost, as reasonably determined by Landlord; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be entitled to collect in excess of one hundred percent (100%) of the total Basic Operating Cost from all of the tenants in the Building including Tenant.
Basic Operating Cost shall not include specific costs incurred for the account of, separately billed to and paid by specific tenants. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in any instance wherein Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, deems Tenant to be responsible for any amounts greater than Tenant’s Proportionate Share, Landlord shall have the right to allocate said costs accordingly, and shall, upon demand, provide evidence thereof to Tenant.
5
8.2 Payment of Estimated Basic Operating Cost. “Estimated Basic Operating Cost” for any particular year shall mean Landlord’s estimate of the Basic Operating Cost for such fiscal year made prior to commencement of such fiscal year as hereinafter provided. Landlord shall have the right from time to time to revise its fiscal year and interim accounting periods so long as the periods as so revised are reconciled with prior periods in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied in a consistent manner. During the last month of each fiscal year during the Term, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of the Estimated Basic Operating Cost for the ensuing fiscal year. Tenant shall pay Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Estimated Basic Operating Cost with installments of Base Rent for the fiscal year to which the Estimated Basic Operating Cost applies in monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month during such year, in advance. If at any time during the course of the fiscal year, Landlord determines that Basic Operating Cost is projected to vary from the then Estimated Basic Operating Cost by more than ten percent (10%), Landlord may, by written notice to Xxxxxx, revise the Estimated Basic Operating Cost for the balance of such fiscal year, and Xxxxxx’s monthly installments for the remainder of such year shall be adjusted so that by the end of such fiscal year Tenant has paid to Landlord Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the revised Estimated Basic Operating Cost for such year.
8.3 Computation of Basic Operating Cost Adjustment. “Basic Operating Cost Adjustment” shall mean the difference between Estimated Basic Operating Cost and actual Basic Operating Cost for any fiscal year determined as hereinafter provided. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, as determined by Landlord, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement of the actual Basic Operating Cost for the fiscal year just ended, accompanied by a computation of Basic Operating Cost Adjustment for said previous fiscal year. If such statement shows that Xxxxxx’s payment based upon Estimated Basic Operating Cost is less than Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the actual Basic Operating Cost, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference within twenty (20) days after receipt of such statement. If such statement shows that Xxxxxx’s payments of Estimated Basic Operating Cost exceed Xxxxxx’s Proportionate Share of the actual Basic Operating Cost, then (provided that Tenant is not in default under this Lease) Landlord shall apply said overpayment by Tenant against Xxxxxx’s Proportionate Share of Basic Operating Cost due or next becoming due. If this Lease has been terminated or the Term hereof has expired prior to the date of such statement, then the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment shall be paid by the appropriate party within twenty (20) days after the date of delivery of the statement.
8.4 Net Lease. This shall be a net Lease and Base Rent shall be paid to Landlord absolutely net of all costs and expenses, except as specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease. The provisions for payment of Basic Operating Cost and the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment are intended to pass on to Tenant and reimburse Landlord for all costs and expenses of the nature described herein incurred in connection with the ownership, maintenance and operation of the Building or Project and such additional facilities now and in subsequent years as may be determined by Landlord to be necessary to the Building or Project.
8.5 Tenant Audit. In the event that Xxxxxx shall dispute the amount set forth in any statement provided by Landlord herein, Tenant shall have the right, not later than twenty (20) days following the receipt of such statement and upon the condition that Tenant shall first deposit with Landlord the full amount in dispute, to cause Xxxxxxxx’s books and records with respect to Basic Operating Cost for such fiscal year to be audited by certified public accountants selected by Xxxxxx and subject to Landlord’s reasonable right of approval. The Basic Operating Cost Adjustment shall be appropriately adjusted on the basis of such audit. If such audit discloses a liability for a refund in excess of ten percent (10%) of Tenant’s Proportionate Share of the Basic Operating Cost Adjustment previously reported, the cost of such audit shall be borne by Landlord; otherwise the cost of such audit shall be paid by Xxxxxx. If Tenant shall not request an audit in accordance with the provisions of this Section, within twenty (20) days after receipt of Landlord’s statement provided pursuant to the provisions herein, such statement shall be final and binding for all purposes hereof.

9. | INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION: |
9.1 Landlord’s Insurance. Landlord agrees to maintain insurance insuring the Premises or, in the event the Premises is not a stand-alone building, the building in which the Premises is located, against fire, lightning, vandalism and malicious mischief (including, at Landlord’s sole election, “All Risk” coverage, earthquake, and/or flood insurance), in an amount not less than eighty percent (80%) of the replacement cost thereof, with deductibles and the form and endorsements of such coverage as selected by Landlord. Such insurance may also include, at Landlord’s option, insurance against loss of Base Rent and Additional Rent, in an amount equal to the amount of Base Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant for a period of at least twelve (12) months commencing on the date of loss. Such insurance shall be for the sole benefit of Landlord and under Xxxxxxxx’s sole control. Landlord shall not be obligated to insure any personal property, including, without limitation, furniture, equipment, machinery, goods or supplies, which Tenant may keep or maintain in the Premises, or any leasehold improvements, additions or alterations within the Premises. Landlord may also carry such other insurance as Landlord may deem prudent or advisable, including, without limitation, liability insurance in such amounts and on such terms as Landlord shall determine. Tenant shall be responsible for payment of any deductible under Landlord’s policy.
9.2 Tenant’s Insurance.
9.2.1 Personal Property Insurance. Tenant shall procure at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and keep in effect from the date of this Lease and at all times until the end of the Term, insurance on all personal property and fixtures of Tenant and all improvements made by or for Tenant to the Premises, insuring such property for its full replacement value.
9.2.2 Liability Insurance. Tenant shall procure at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and keep in effect from the date of this Lease and at all times until the end of the Term either Comprehensive General Liability insurance or Commercial General Liability insurance applying to the use and occupancy of the Premises and, if the Premises is not a stand-alone building, the building in which the Premises is located, and any part of either, and any areas adjacent thereto, and the business operated by Tenant, or by any other occupant on the Premises. Such insurance shall include Broad Form Contractual Liability insurance coverage insuring all of Tenant’s indemnity obligations under this Lease. Such coverage shall have a minimum combined single limit of liability of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), and a general aggregate limit of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00). Such policies shall be written to apply to all bodily injury, property damage or loss, fire legal liability coverage, personal injury and other covered loss, however occasioned, occurring during the policy term, shall be endorsed to add Landlord and any party holding an interest to which this Lease may be subordinated as an additional insured, and shall provide that such coverage shall be primary and that any insurance maintained by Landlord shall be excess insurance only. Such coverage shall also contain endorsements: (i) deleting any employee exclusion on personal injury coverage; (ii) including employees as additional insureds; (iii) deleting any liquor liability exclusion; and (iv) providing for coverage of employer’s automobile non-ownership liability. Such insurance shall provide for severability of interests; shall provide that an act or omission of one of the named insureds shall not reduce or avoid coverage to the other named insureds; and shall afford coverage for all claims based on acts, omissions, injury and damage, which claims occurred or arose (or the onset of which occurred or arose) in whole or in part during the policy period. Said coverage shall be written on an “occurrence” basis, if available. If an “occurrence” basis form is not available, Tenant must purchase “tail” coverage for the most number of years available, and tenant must also purchase “tail” coverage or if the retroactive date of an “occurrence” basis form is changed so as to leave a gap in coverage for occurrences that might have occurred in prior years. If a “claims made” policy is ever used, the policy must be endorsed so that Landlord is given the right to purchase “tail” coverage should Tenant for any reason not do so or if the policy is to be cancelled for nonpayment of premium.
7
9.2.3 General Insurance Requirements. All coverages described in this Section shall list Landlord as an additional insured and be endorsed to provide Landlord with thirty (30) days’ notice of cancellation or change in terms. If at any time during the Term the amount or coverage of insurance which Tenant is required to carry under this Section is, in Landlord’s reasonable judgment, materially less than the amount or type of insurance coverage typically carried by owners or tenants of properties located in the general area in which the Premises are located which are similar to and operated for similar purposes as the Premises, Landlord shall have the right to require Tenant to increase the amount or change the types of insurance coverage required under this Section. All insurance policies required to be carried under this Lease shall be written by companies rated A-XII or better in “Best’s Insurance Guide” and authorized to do business in Nevada. Any deductible amounts under any insurance policies required hereunder shall be subject to Landlord’s prior written approval. In any event deductible amounts shall not exceed One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00). Tenant shall deliver to Landlord on or before the Commencement Date, and thereafter at least thirty (30) days before the expiration dates of the expiring policies, certified copies of Tenant’s insurance policies, or a certificate evidencing the same issued by the insurer thereunder, showing that all premiums have been paid for the full policy period; and, in the event Tenant shall fail to procure such insurance, or to deliver such policies or certificates, Landlord may, at Landlord’s option and in addition to Landlord’s other remedies in the event of a default by Tenant hereunder, procure the same for the account of Tenant, and the cost thereof shall be paid to Landlord as Additional Rent.
9.3 Indemnification. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage to person or property caused by theft, fire, acts of God, acts of a public enemy, riot, strike, insurrection, war, court order, requisition or order of governmental body or authority or for any damage or inconvenience which may arise through repair or alteration of any part of the Building or Project or failure to make any such repair, except as expressly otherwise provided in Landlord’s Repairs, below. Tenant shall indemnify, defend by counsel acceptable to Landlord, protect and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages, injuries or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, arising out of or related to: (1) claims of injury to or death of persons or damage to property occurring or resulting directly or indirectly from the use or occupancy of the Premises, or from activities of Tenant, Tenant’s Parties or anyone in or about the Premises, Building or Project, or from any cause whatsoever; (2) claims for work or labor performed, or for materials or supplies furnished to or at the request of Tenant in connection with performance of any work done for the account of Tenant within the Premises, Building or Project; and (3) claims arising from any breach or default on the part of Tenant in the performance of any covenant contained in this Lease. The foregoing indemnity shall not be applicable to claims arising from the active negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease with respect to any claims or liability occurring prior to such expiration or termination.
8
10. | WAIVER OF SUBROGATION: |
To the extent permitted by law and without affecting the coverage provided by insurance to be maintained hereunder, Tenant waives any right to recover against Landlord for: (a) damages for injury to or death of persons; (b) damages to property; (c) damages to the Premises or any part thereof; and (d) claims arising by reason of the foregoing due to hazards covered by insurance to the extent of proceeds recovered therefrom. This provision is intended to waive fully any rights and/or claims which might give rise to a right of subrogation in favor of any insurance carrier. The coverage obtained by Tenant pursuant to this Lease shall include, without limitation, a waiver of subrogation by the carrier which conforms to the provisions of this Section.
11. | LANDLORD’S REPAIRS AND SERVICES: |

16. | UTILITIES: |
Tenant shall pay directly for all water, gas, heat, air conditioning, light, power, telephone, sewer, trash, and fire sprinkler charges and other utilities and services used on or from the Premises, together with any taxes, penalties, surcharges or the like pertaining thereto, and maintenance charges for utilities and shall furnish all electric light bulbs, ballasts and tubes. If any such services are not separately metered to Tenant, Tenant shall pay a reasonable proportion, as determined by Landlord, of all charges jointly serving the Premises and remainder of the Building or Project. Landlord shall not be liable for any damages directly or indirectly resulting from nor shall the Rent or any monies owed Landlord under this Lease herein reserved be abated by reason of: (a) the installation, use or interruption of use of any equipment used in connection with the furnishing of any such utilities or services; (b) the failure to furnish or delay in furnishing any such utilities or services when such failure or delay is caused by acts of God or the elements, labor disturbances of any character, or any other accidents or other conditions beyond the reasonable control of Landlord; or (c) the limitation, curtailment, rationing or restriction on use of water, electricity, gas or any other form of energy or any other service or utility whatsoever serving the Premises, Building or Project.

Without the necessity of any additional document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination, the Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to: (a) all ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed affecting the Premises and/or the land upon which the Premises, Building and/or Project are situated, or both; and (b) any mortgage or deed of trust which may now exist or be placed upon said Project, land, ground leases or underlying leases, or Landlord’s interest or estate in any of said items which is specified as security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have the right to subordinate or cause to be subordinated any such ground leases or underlying leases or any such liens to this Lease. In the event that any ground lease or underlying lease terminates for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, Tenant shall, notwithstanding any subordination, attorn to and become the Tenant of the successor in interest to Landlord at the option of such successor in interest. Within ten (10) days after request by Landlord, Xxxxxx shall execute and deliver any additional documents evidencing Tenant’s attornment or the subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground leases or underlying leases or any such mortgage or deed of trust, in the form requested by Landlord or by any ground landlord, mortgagee, or beneficiary under a deed of trust, subject to Xxxxxx’s receipt of a non-disturbance agreement provided Tenant is not in default of any provisions of the Lease.

Failure by Tenant to execute and deliver such certificate shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and acknowledgment by Tenant that the statements included are true and correct without exception. Landlord and Tenant intend that any statement delivered pursuant to this Section may be relied upon by any mortgagee, beneficiary, purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Project or any interest therein. The parties agree that Xxxxxx’s obligation to furnish such estoppel certificates in a timely fashion is a material inducement for Landlord’s execution of the Lease, and shall be an event of default if Tenant fails to fully comply.
20. | SECURITY DEPOSIT: |
Xxxxxx agrees to deposit with Landlord upon execution of this Lease, a Security Deposit as stated in the Basic Lease Information, which sum shall be held by Landlord, without obligation for interest, as security for the performance of Tenant’s covenants and obligations under this Lease. The Security Deposit is not an advance rental deposit or a measure of damages incurred by Landlord in case of Xxxxxx’s default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without prejudice to any other remedy provided herein or provided by law, use such fund to the extent necessary to make good any arrears of Rent or other payments due to Landlord hereunder, and any other damage, injury, expense or liability caused by such event of default, and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, the amount so applied in order to restore the Security Deposit to its original amount. Although the Security Deposit shall be deemed the property of Landlord, any remaining balance of such deposit, without interest, shall be returned by Landlord to Tenant at such time after termination of this Lease that all of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease have been fulfilled.
21. | TENANT’S REMEDIES: |
The liability of Landlord to Tenant for any default by Landlord under the terms of this Lease are not personal obligations of the individual or other partners, directors, officers and shareholders of Landlord, and Xxxxxx agrees to look solely to Xxxxxxxx’s interest in the Project for the recovery of any amount from Landlord, and shall not look to other assets of Landlord nor seek recourse against the assets of the individual or other partners, directors, officers and shareholders of Landlord. Any lien obtained to enforce any such judgment and any levy of execution thereon shall be subject and subordinate to any lien, mortgage or deed of trust on the Project.
13
22. | ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING: |
22.1 General. Tenant shall not assign or sublet the Premises or any part thereof without Landlord’s prior written approval except as provided herein. If Tenant desires to assign this Lease or sublet any or all of the Premises, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice ninety (90) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the assignment or sublease. Landlord shall then have a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice to notify Tenant in writing that Landlord elects either: (1) to terminate this Lease as to the space so affected as of the date so requested by Xxxxxx; or (2) to permit Tenant to assign this Lease or sublet such space, subject, however, to Landlord’s prior written approval of the proposed assignee or subtenant and of any related documents or agreements associated with the assignment or sublease. If Landlord should fail to notify Tenant in writing of such election within said period, Landlord shall be deemed to have waived option (1) above, but written approval by Landlord of the proposed assignee or subtenant shall be required. If Landlord does not exercise the option provided in subitem (1) above, Xxxxxxxx’s consent to a proposed assignment or sublet shall not be unreasonably withheld. Without limiting the other instances in which it may be reasonable for Landlord to withhold Landlord’s consent to an assignment or subletting, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge that it shall be reasonable for Landlord to withhold Xxxxxxxx’s consent in the following instances: (i) the use of the Premises by such proposed assignee or subtenant would not comply with the Permitted Use or would increase the Parking Density of the Project; (ii) the proposed assignee or subtenant is not of sound financial condition; (iii) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a governmental agency; (iv) the proposed assignee or subtenant does not have a good reputation as a tenant of property; (v) the proposed assignee or subtenant is a person with whom Landlord is negotiating to lease space in the Building or Project; (vi) the assignment or subletting would entail any alterations which would lessen the value of the leasehold improvements in the Premises; (vii) the proposed assignee or subtenant would engage in a use that would violate another lease within the Building or Project; (viii) the proposed assignee or subtenant would engage in a use not within Landlord’s desired use and mix of the Building or Project; or (ix) if Tenant is in default of any obligation of Tenant under this Lease, or Tenant has defaulted under this Lease on three (3) or more occasions during any twelve (12) months preceding the date that Tenant requests such consent. Failure by Landlord to approve a proposed assignee or subtenant shall not cause a termination of this Lease. Upon a termination under this Section, Landlord may lease the Premises to any party, including parties with whom Xxxxxx has negotiated an assignment or sublease, without incurring any liability to Tenant.
22.2 Bonus Rent. Any Rent or other consideration realized by Tenant under any such sublease or assignment in excess of the Rent payable hereunder, after amortization of a reasonable brokerage commission, shall be divided and paid, forty percent (40%) to Tenant, sixty percent (60%) to Landlord. In any subletting or assignment undertaken by Tenant, Tenant shall diligently seek to obtain the maximum rental amount available in the marketplace for such subletting or assignment.
22.3 Corporation. If Tenant is a corporation, a transfer of corporate shares by sale, assignment, bequest, inheritance, operation of law or other disposition (including such a transfer to or by a receiver or trustee in federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceedings), so as to result in a change in the present control of such corporation or any of its parent corporations by the person or persons owning a majority of said corporate shares, shall constitute an assignment for purposes of this Lease requiring prior written approval of Landlord pursuant to Section 22.1.
22.4 Partnership. If Tenant is a partnership, joint venture or other incorporated business form, a transfer of the interest of persons, firms or entities responsible for managerial control of Tenant by sale, assignment, bequest, inheritance, operation of law or other disposition, so as to result in a change in the present control of said entity and/or a change in the identity of the persons responsible for the general credit obligations of said entity shall constitute an assignment for purposes of this Lease requiring prior written approval of Landlord pursuant to Section 22.1.
14
22.5 Liability. No assignment or subletting by Tenant shall relieve Tenant of any obligation under this Lease. Any assignment or subletting which conflicts with the provisions hereof or any other lease in the Building or Project shall be void. Tenant will indemnify Landlord for any assignee action.
22.6 No Waiver. Any grant by Landlord of permissive assignment or sublease shall not act as a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights under the provisions of this Lease, including, without limitation, Xxxxxxxx’s rights in regard to subsequent assignment or sublease by Xxxxxx.
23. | AUTHORITY OF PARTIES: |
Landlord represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and to perform all of Landlord’s obligations hereunder. Tenant represents and warrants that it has full right and authority to enter into this Lease and to perform all of Tenant’s obligations hereunder.
24. | CONDEMNATION: |
24.1 Condemnation Resulting in Termination. If the whole or any substantial part of the Project of which the Premises are a part should be taken or condemned for any public use under governmental law, ordinance or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and the taking would prevent or materially interfere with the Permitted Use of the Premises this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective when the physical taking of said Premises shall have occurred.

If a portion of the Project of which the Premises are a part should be taken or condemned for any public use under any governmental law, ordinance, or regulation, or by right of eminent domain, or by private purchase in lieu thereof, and this Lease is not terminated as provided in this Section, this Lease shall not terminate, but the Rent payable hereunder during the unexpired portion of the Lease shall be reduced, beginning on the date when the physical taking shall have occurred, to such amount as may be fair and reasonable under all of the circumstances.
24.3 Award. 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 portion of this Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any compensation specifically awarded Tenant for loss of business, Xxxxxx’s personal property, moving costs or loss of goodwill, shall be and remain the property of Tenant.
25. | CASUALTY DAMAGE: |
25.1 General. If the Premises or Building should be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, Tenant shall give immediate written notice thereof to Landlord. Within thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of such notice, Landlord shall notify Tenant whether in Landlord’s opinion such repairs can reasonably be made either: (1) within ninety (90) days; (2) in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty (180) days; or (3) in more than one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such notice. Landlord’s determination shall be binding on Tenant.
15
25.2 Less Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged by fire or other casualty but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord’s estimation be reasonably completed within ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, this Lease shall not terminate and provided that insurance proceeds are available to fully repair the damage, Landlord shall proceed to rebuild and repair the Premises in the manner determined by Landlord, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other leasehold improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the Rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be abated proportionately, but only to the extent of rental abatement insurance proceeds received by Landlord during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy.
25.3 Greater Than 90 Days. If the Premises or Building should be damaged by fire or other casualty but only to such extent that rebuilding or repairs can in Landlord’s estimation be reasonably completed in more than ninety (90) days but in less than one hundred eighty 180 days, then Landlord shall have the option of either: (1) terminating the Lease effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage, in which event the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of the Lease; or (2) electing to rebuild or repair the Premises to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage, provided that insurance proceeds are available, to fully repair the damage, except that Landlord shall not be required to rebuild, repair or replace any part of the partitions, fixtures, additions and other improvements which may have been placed in, on or about the Premises. If the Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, the Rent payable hereunder during the period in which they are untenantable shall be abated proportionately, but only to the extent of rental abatement insurance proceeds received by Landlord during the time and to the extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy. In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such repairs and rebuilding within one hundred eighty days (180) days after the date upon which Landlord is notified by Tenant of such damage, 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 embargoes, rainy or stormy weather, inability to obtain materials, supplies or fuels, or delays of the contractors or subcontractors or any other causes or contingencies beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, Tenant may at Tenant’s option within ten (10) days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period (as such may be extended), terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Landlord as Tenant’s exclusive remedy, whereupon all rights hereunder shall cease and terminate thirty (30) days after Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of such termination notice.
25.4 Greater Than 180 Days. If the Premises or Building should be so damaged by fire or other casualty that rebuilding or repairs cannot in Landlord’s estimation be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after such damage, this Lease shall terminate and the Rent shall be abated during the unexpired portion of this Lease, effective upon the date of the occurrence of such damage.

16
25.6 Uninsured Casualty. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Premises or Building are damaged or destroyed and are not fully covered by the insurance proceeds received by Landlord or in the event that the holder of any indebtedness secured by a mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises requires that the insurance proceeds be applied to such indebtedness, then in either case Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease by delivering written notice of termination to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the date of notice to Landlord that said damage or destruction is not fully covered by insurance or such requirement is made by any such holder, as the case may be, whereupon all rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and terminate.
26. | HOLDING OVER: |
If Tenant shall retain possession of the Premises or any portion thereof without Landlord’s consent following the expiration of this Lease or sooner termination for any reason, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord for each day of such retention 150% of the amount of the daily rental as of the last month prior to the date of expiration or termination. Tenant shall also indemnify, defend, protect and hold Landlord harmless from any loss, liability or cost, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from delay by Xxxxxx in surrendering the Premises, including, without limitation, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded on such delay. Acceptance of Rent by Landlord following expiration or termination shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease, and nothing contained in this Section shall waive Landlord’s right of reentry or any other right. Unless Landlord consents in writing to Xxxxxx’s holding over, Tenant shall be only a Tenant at sufferance, whether or not Landlord accepts any Rent from Tenant while Tenant is holding over without Xxxxxxxx’s written consent. Additionally, in the event that upon termination of the Lease, Tenant has not fulfilled its obligation with respect to repairs and cleanup of the Premises or any other Tenant obligations as set forth in this Lease, then Landlord shall have the right to perform any such obligations as ii deems necessary at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and any time required by Landlord to complete such obligations shall be considered a period of holding over and the terms of this Section shall apply.
27. | DEFAULT: |
27.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an event of default on the part of Tenant:
27.1.1 Abandonment. Abandonment of the Premises for a continuous period in excess of fifteen (15) days.
27.1.2 Nonpayment of Rent. Failure to pay any installment of Rent or any other amount due and payable hereunder upon the date when said payment is due, if the failure continues for five (5) days after written notice to Tenant.

27.1.4 General Assignment. A general assignment by Xxxxxx for the benefit of creditors.
17
27.1.5 Bankruptcy. The filing of any voluntary petition in bankruptcy by Xxxxxx, or the filing of an involuntary petition by Xxxxxx’s creditors, which involuntary petition remains undischarged for a period of thirty (30) days. In the event that under applicable law the trustee in bankruptcy or Tenant has the right to affirm this Lease and continue to perform the obligations of Tenant hereunder, such trustee or Tenant shall, in such time period as may be permitted by the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction, cure all defaults of Tenant hereunder outstanding as of the date of the affirmance of this Lease and provide to Landlord such adequate assurances as may be necessary to ensure Landlord of the continued performance of Tenant’s obligations under this Lease.
27.1.6 Receivership. The employment of a receiver to take possession of substantially all of Tenant’s assets or the Premises, if such appointment remains undismissed or undischarged for a period of ten (10) days after the order therefor.

27.2 Remedies Upon Default.
27.2.1 Termination. In the event of the occurrence of any event of default, Landlord shall have the right to give a written termination notice to Tenant, and on the date specified in such notice, Tenant’s right to possession shall terminate, and this Lease shall terminate unless on or before such date all arrears of rental and all other sums payable by Tenant under this Lease and all costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Landlord hereunder shall have been paid by Tenant and all other events of default of this Lease by Tenant at the time existing shall have been fully remedied to the satisfaction of Landlord. At any time after such termination, Landlord may recover possession of the Premises or any part thereof and expel and remove therefrom Tenant and any other person occupying the same, by any lawful means, and again repossess and enjoy the Premises without prejudice to any of the remedies that Landlord may have under this Lease, or at law or equity by reason of Tenant’s default or of such termination.
27.2.2 Continuation After Default. Even though an event of default may have occurred, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long as Landlord does not terminate Tenant’s right to possession herein, and Landlord may enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies under this Lease, including without limitation, the right to recover Rent as it becomes due, and Landlord, without terminating this Lease, may exercise all of the rights and remedies of a landlord. Acts of maintenance, preservation or efforts to lease the Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon application of Landlord to protect Xxxxxxxx’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute an election to terminate Tenant’s right to possession.
27.2.3 Damages After Default. Should Landlord terminate this Lease pursuant to the provisions herein, Landlord shall have the rights and remedies of a Landlord. Upon such termination, in addition to any other rights and remedies to which Landlord may be entitled under applicable law, Landlord shall be entitled to recover from Tenant: (1) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid Rent and other amounts which had been earned at the time of termination, (2) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (3) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such Rent loss that the Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided; and (4) any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Xxxxxx’s failure to perform Tenant’s obligations under this Lease or which, in the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom. The “worth at the time of award” of the amounts referred to in (1) and (2), above shall be computed at the lesser of the “prime rate,” as announced from time to time by Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. (San Francisco), plus five (5) percentage points, or the maximum interest rate allowed by law (“Applicable Interest Rate”). The “worth at the time of award” of the amount referred to in (3) above shall be computed by discounting such amount at the Federal Discount Rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award. If this Lease provides for any periods during the Term during which Tenant is not required to pay Base Rent or if Tenant otherwise receives a Rent concession, then upon the occurrence of an event of default, Tenant shall owe to Landlord the full amount of such Base Rent or value of such Rent concession, plus interest at the Applicable Interest Rate, calculated from the date that such Base Rent or Rent concession would have been payable.
18
27.2.4 Late Charge. If any installment of Rent is not paid within ten (10) days of the date it is due, such amount shall bear interest at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date on which said payment shall be due until the date on which Landlord shall receive said payment. In addition, Tenant shall pay Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquency, to compensate Landlord for the loss of the use of the amount not paid and the administrative costs caused by the delinquency, the parties agreeing that Landlord’s damage by virtue of such delinquencies would be difficult to compute and the amount stated herein represents a reasonable estimate thereof. This provision shall not relieve Tenant of Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent at the time and in the manner herein specified.
27.2.5 Remedies Cumulative. All rights, privileges and elections or remedies of the parties are cumulative and not alternative, to the extent permitted by law and except as otherwise provided herein.
28. | LIENS: |
Tenant shall keep the Premises free from all liens, including, without limitation, those arising out of or related to work performed, materials or supplies furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant or in connection with work made, suffered or done by or on behalf of Tenant in or on the Premises, Building or Project.

29. | TRANSFERS BY LANDLORD: |
In the event of a sale or conveyance by Landlord of the Project or any portion thereof, or a foreclosure by any creditor of Landlord, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any liability upon any of the covenants or conditions, express or implied, herein contained in favor of Tenant, to the extent required to be performed after the passing of title to Landlord’s successor-in-interest. In such event, Xxxxxx agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor-in-interest of Landlord under this Lease with respect to the performance of the covenants and duties of “Landlord” to be performed after the passing of title to Xxxxxxxx’s successor-in-interest. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale and Xxxxxx agrees to attorn to the purchaser or assignee, subject to Xxxxxx’s receipt of a non-disturbance agreement provided Tenant is not in default of any provisions of the Lease. Xxxxxxxx’s successor(s)-in- interest shall not have liability to Tenant with respect to the failure to perform all of the obligations of “Landlord”, to the extent required to be performed prior to the date such successor(s)-in-interest became the owner of the Building.
30. | RIGHT OF LANDLORD TO PERFORM TENANT’S COVENANTS: |
All covenants and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms of this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense and without any abatement of Rent. If Tenant shall fail to pay any sum of money, other than Base Rent and Basic Operating Cost, required to be paid by Tenant hereunder or shall fail to perform any other act on Tenant’s part to be performed hereunder, and such failure shall continue for five (5) days after notice thereof by Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to do so, and without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant’s part to be made or performed. All sums, so paid by Xxxxxxxx and all necessary incidental costs together with interest thereon at the Applicable Interest Rate from the date of such payment by Landlord shall be payable to Landlord on demand, and Tenant covenants to pay such sums, and Landlord shall have, in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, the same right and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Base Rent and Basic Operating Cost.
31. | WAIVER: |
If either Landlord or Tenant waives the performance of any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease, such waiver shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition contained herein. The acceptance of Rent by Landlord shall not constitute a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, regardless of Landlord’s knowledge of such preceding breach at the time Landlord accepted such Rent. Failure by Landlord to enforce any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Lease for any length of time shall not be deemed to waive or to decrease the right of Landlord to insist thereafter upon strict performance by Xxxxxx. Waiver by Landlord of any term, covenant or condition contained in this Lease may only be made by a written document signed by Landlord.
