1. LEASE
AGREEMENT.
On the terms
stated in this Lease, Landlord leases the Premises to Tenant, and Tenant
leases
the Premises from Landlord, for the Term beginning on the Commencement Date
and
ending on the Termination Date, unless extended or sooner terminated pursuant
to
this Lease.
1.1 Commencement
Date.
(a) The
Commencement
Date of this Lease is the date set forth in the Schedule, and the parties
agree
that if the Premises Delivery Date does not occur on or before July 1, 2005
for
any reason, then this Lease shall not be void or voidable by either party
and
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting
therefrom.
(i) The
parties
acknowledge and agree that if the Premises Delivery Date does not occur on
or
before July 1, 2005, Tenant may be subject to the holdover provisions of
its
current lease, and that Tenant may be required to pay to its current landlord
holdover rent as well as certain penalties and damages. Accordingly,
notwithstanding Section 1.1(a) above, if the Premises Delivery Date does
not occur on or before September 1, 2005 (the "Premises
Delivery
Deadline"),
then, for each
calendar month after the Premises Delivery Deadline in which the Premises
Delivery Date does not occur, Tenant shall be entitled to a credit against
Base
Rent payable hereunder equal to twice the Monthly Base Rent payable hereunder
for the first Lease Year (i.e., Two Hundred Ninety-One Thousand Six Hundred
Thirty Five and 40/100 Dollars ($291,635.40)); provided,
however,
that (A) if
Landlord's delivery of a portion of the Premises would mitigate Tenant's
obligation to pay holdover rent, penalties or damages to its current landlord
and if Tenant determines, in its commercially reasonable discretion, to accept
Landlord's delivery of a portion of the Premises, then, upon Tenant's taking
possession of such portion of the Premises, the amount of the credit under
this
Section 1.1(a)(i) shall be proportionately reduced on the basis of the number
of
rentable square feet of the portion of the Premises delivered to Tenant in
proportion to the total rentable square feet of the Premises; and (B) Tenant
shall not be entitled to a credit under this Section 1.1(a)(i) if Tenant
substantially completes the Tenant Improvement Work on or before January
1,
2006. Tenant shall exercise reasonable efforts to substantially complete
the
Tenant Improvement Work on or before January 1, 2006 using standard working
methods without the payment of overtime; provided, however, that at Landlord's
option, Landlord may require Tenant to pay for overtime, in which event Landlord
shall reimburse Tenant for reasonable overtime expenses within thirty (30)
days
after Landlord's receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor.
(ii) Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, if the Premises Delivery Date does not occur on or before April
1,
2006 (the "Outside
Delivery
Deadline"),
Tenant shall
have the right to cancel this Lease by giving written notice of such
cancellation to Landlord at any time after the Outside Delivery Deadline
and
prior to the date Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant,
in
which case this Lease shall be cancelled effective thirty (30) days after
Landlord's receipt of Tenant's cancellation
notice,
unless Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant within said
thirty
(30) day period.
(iii) The
Premises
Delivery Deadline and the Outside Delivery Deadline shall be extended by
the
number of days that the Premises Delivery Date is delayed due to any act,
neglect, failure or omission of Tenant or any Tenant Parties (as defined
in
Section 8.2(a) below) or due to fire or other damage to or destruction of
the
Premises. Tenant's rent credit and cancellation right as herein described
shall
constitute Tenant's sole and
Page
4
exclusive
remedy for
the failure of the Premises Delivery Date to occur by the Premises Delivery
Deadline or the Outside Delivery Deadline, respectively. Any rent credit
granted
to Tenant pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(i) above shall be applied against the
first
monthly installments of Base Rent payable hereunder until the rent credit
is
exhausted.
(b) Following
the
Commencement Date, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant a Commencement
Date Confirmation substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
D
that sets forth the Commencement Date, the Rent Commencement Date and the
Termination Date for this Lease. Tenant shall execute the Commencement Date
Confirmation and deliver the executed original of the same to Landlord within
five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt thereof. Tenant's failure to
timely execute and return the Commencement Date Confirmation document to
Landlord shall be conclusive evidence of Tenant's agreement with the information
as set forth therein. This Lease shall be a binding contractual obligation
of
Landlord and Tenant effective upon the mutual execution and delivery hereof,
notwithstanding the later commencement of the Lease Term.
1.2 Termination
Date.
The Termination
Date of this Lease is set forth in the Schedule.
1.3 Early
Occupancy.
During
the period
commencing on the Premises Delivery Date and ending on the Commencement Date
(the "Early
Occupancy
Period"),
Tenant shall be
permitted to occupy the Premises for the purpose of installing leasehold
improvements, furniture, trade fixtures, equipment and cabling, subject to
the
terms and conditions set forth in the Tenant Improvement Agreement. Tenant's
occupancy of the Premises during the Early Occupancy Period shall be subject
to
all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease, except that Landlord
agrees that Tenant's obligation to pay Base Rent, Operating Cost Share Rent
and
Tax Share Rent (as such terms are defined in Sections 2.1(a) through 2.1(c)
below) during the Early Occupancy Period shall be waived. Tenant shall, however,
pay the cost of all utilities and other services provided to the Premises
during
the Early Occupancy Period. Prior to Tenant's entry in the Premises, Tenant
shall furnish to Landlord certificates of insurance satisfactory to Landlord
evidencing Tenant's compliance with the requirements of Section 8.3
below.
1.4 Cancellation
Right.
The parties
acknowledge that (a) concurrently herewith, Tenant and Landlord's affiliate,
Square 24 Associates, dba Square 24 Associates, L.P., a District of Columbia
limited partnership ("Square
24"),
are entering
into that certain lease agreement for certain premises in the building commonly
known as 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, in the project commonly
known
as "Sunnyvale Technology Park" (the "Other
Lease"),
(b) the Premises
are subject to an existing
lease (the
"Existing
Lease")
between Landlord
and the existing tenant (the "Existing
Tenant")
of the Premises,
and (c) Tenant's
ability to
receive timely delivery of the Premises is a material consideration of Tenant's
decision to enter into this Lease and the Other Lease. Therefore, Landlord
shall
deliver to Tenant a written statement certified by Landlord that (i) Landlord
and the Existing Tenant have entered into an agreement terminating the Existing
Lease effective on or before June 30, 2005, and (ii) under the terms of such
agreement, the Existing Tenant is required to vacate the Premises on or before
June 30, 2005. If Landlord fails to deliver such statement to Tenant within
ten
(10) business days after the receipt by Landlord and Square 24 of this Lease
and
the Other Lease, respectively, both duly executed by Tenant, then Tenant
shall
have the right to cancel this Lease and the Other Lease upon written notice
to
Landlord and Square 24; provided, however, that Tenant shall provide such
written notice within three (3) days after the expiration of said
ten
Page
5
(10)
business day
period. Tenant's cancellation under this Section 1.4 shall terminate this
Lease
and the Other Lease effective as of the date of Landlord's and Square 24's
receipt of Tenant's written notice, and Landlord and Square 24 shall, on
or
before the effective date of such termination or as soon thereafter as
reasonably practicable, refund to Tenant the Prepaid Base Rent and Prepaid
Operating Cost/Tax Share Rent paid by Tenant pursuant to Section 2.1 of this
Lease and Section 2.1 of the Other Lease, respectively, and the parties shall
be
released from all further obligations under this Lease and the Other
Lease.

forth
in Item 6 of the Schedule, which shall be applied to the first monthly

regarding
the
original or revised estimate of the monthly payments to be made pursuant
to
Sections 2.1(b) and 2.1(c) above for a particular Fiscal Year, Tenant shall
pay
Landlord an amount equal to the product of such estimated monthly payments
(as
set forth in Landlord's notice), multiplied by the number of months that
have
elapsed in the applicable Fiscal Year to the date of such payment including
the
current month, minus any payments on account thereof previously made by Tenant
for the months elapsed. On the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant
shall
pay Landlord the estimated monthly payments as set forth in Landlord's most
recent notice, until a new estimate becomes applicable.
(b) Correction
of
Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent.
Within one hundred
fifty (150) days after the close of each Fiscal Year or as soon after such
150-day period as practicable, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement
of
(i) Operating Costs and Taxes for such Fiscal Year, and (ii) the
payments made by Tenant under Section 2.2(a) above for such Fiscal Year (the
"Annual
Expense
Statement").
If, on the basis
of any Annual Expense Statement, Tenant owes an amount that is less than
the
estimated payments previously made by Tenant for the applicable Fiscal Year,
Landlord, at its election, shall either promptly refund the amount of the
overpayment to Tenant or, if this Lease is still in effect, credit such excess
against Tenant's subsequent obligations to pay Operating Costs and Taxes.
If, on
the basis of any Annual Expense Statement, Tenant owes an amount that is
more
than the estimated payments previously made by Tenant for the applicable
Fiscal
Year, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within twenty (20) days
after
Landlord's delivery of such Annual Expense Statement to Tenant. The obligations
of Landlord and Tenant under this Section to promptly refund any overpayment
or
pay any deficiency, as appropriate, shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease.

of the buildings in the Project) of all Taxes which relate to the Project
in
general and are not fairly allocable to any one building in the
Project.
(iii) For
any year, the
amount to be included in Taxes (1) from taxes or assessments payable in
installments, shall be the amount of the installments (with any interest)
due
and payable during such year, and (2) from all other Taxes, shall at
Landlord's election be the amount accrued, assessed, or otherwise imposed
for
such year or the amount due and payable in such year. If Taxes for any period
during the Term are increased after payment thereof for any reason, including,
without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or
municipal authorities, and such increase results in Tenant having underpaid
Tax
Share Rent hereunder, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord, within thirty (30)
days
after demand, the amount of such underpayment. Similarly, if Taxes for any
period during the Term are decreased after payment thereof for any reason,
and
such decrease results in Tenant having overpaid Tax Share Rent hereunder,
then
Landlord shall return to Tenant the amount of such overpayment within thirty
(30) days after Landlord's receipt of such overpayment. The obligations of
Landlord and Tenant under this Section to promptly refund any overpayment
or pay
any deficiency, as appropriate, shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease. Taxes shall not include any net income (except
Rent
Tax), capital, stock, succession, transfer, franchise, gift, estate or
inheritance tax, except to the extent that such tax shall be imposed in lieu
of
any portion of Taxes.
(iv) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord upon demand for any and all taxes payable by Landlord (other than
net
income taxes) whether or not now customary or within the contemplation of
the
parties hereto: (1) imposed
upon,
measured by or reasonably attributable to the cost or value of Tenant’s
equipment, furniture, trade fixtures and other personal property located
in the
Premises or by the cost or value of any leasehold improvements made in or
to the
Premises by or for Tenant, other than Building-standard improvements made
by
Landlord, if any, regardless of whether title to such improvements shall
be in
Tenant or Landlord;
(2) imposed
upon or
measured by the Base Rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation,
any
gross income tax or excise tax levied by the city or county in which the
Project
is located, the federal government or any other governmental body with respect
to the receipt of such rental; (3) imposed
upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operation, management,
maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises
or
any portion thereof; or (4) imposed
upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party creating
or
transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises.
(d) Lease
Year.
"Lease
Year"
means each
consecutive twelve month period beginning with the Commencement Date, except
that if the Commencement Date is not the first day of a calendar month, then
the
first Lease Year shall be the period from the
Page
11
Commencement
Date
through the final day of the calendar month during which the first anniversary
of the Commencement Date occurs, and subsequent Lease Years shall be each
succeeding twelve month period during the Term following the first Lease
Year.
(e) Fiscal
Year.
"Fiscal
Year"
means each
calendar year during which any portion of the Term occurs (e.g.,
the first Fiscal
Year shall be the calendar year during which the Commencement Date occurs).
2.4 Computation
of
Base Rent and Rent Adjustments.
(a) Prorations.
If (i) the
Commencement Date is a date other than January 1, (ii) the Termination Date
is a
date other than December 31, (iii) this Lease terminates early, or
(iv) the size of the Premises increases or decreases, then in each such
event, the Base Rent, the Operating Cost Share Rent and Tax Share Rent shall
be
equitably adjusted to reflect such event on a basis determined by Landlord
to be
consistent with the principles underlying the provisions of this Section
2.
(b) Interest
Rate.
Any sum due from
Tenant to Landlord not paid when due shall bear interest from the date due
until
paid at the lesser of twelve percent (12%) per annum or the maximum rate
permitted by law (the "Interest
Rate").
(c) Intentionally
omitted.
(d) Books
and
Records.
Landlord shall
maintain books and records reflecting the Operating Costs and Taxes in
accordance with sound accounting and management practices. Tenant and a
certified public accountant employed by a certified public accounting firm
and
working on a non-contingency fee basis shall have the right to inspect
Landlord's records at Landlord's applicable local office or other location
within the County of Santa Clara, California, designated by Landlord upon
at
least seventy-two (72) hours' prior notice during normal business hours during
the ninety (90) days following Landlord's delivery of the Annual Expense
Statement to Tenant. The results of any such inspection shall be kept strictly
confidential by Tenant and its agents, and Tenant and its certified public
accountant must agree, in their contract for such services, to such
confidentiality restrictions and shall specifically agree that the results
shall
not be made available to any other tenant of the Project (and in connection
with
the foregoing, prior to exercising its rights hereunder, Tenant and its agents
shall sign a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to Landlord).
Unless Tenant sends to Landlord any written exception to an Annual Expense
Statement within said ninety (90) day period, such Annual Expense Statement
shall be deemed final and accepted by Tenant and Tenant waives any other
rights
pursuant to applicable law to inspect Landlord's books and records and/or
to
contest the amount of Operating Costs and/or Taxes due hereunder. Tenant
shall
pay the amount shown on any Annual Expense Statement in the manner prescribed
in
this Lease, whether or not Tenant takes any such written exception, without
any
prejudice to such exception. If Tenant makes a timely exception, Landlord
shall,
within thirty (30) days after Landlord's receipt of Tenant's written exception
or as soon after such thirty (30) day period as is reasonably practicable,
cause
an independent certified public accountant to issue a final and conclusive
resolution of Tenant's exception. If, according to such accountant, Landlord’s
original determination of annual Operating Costs and Taxes overstated the
amounts thereof, in the aggregate, by seven percent (7%) or less or understated
the amounts thereof, then Tenant shall pay the cost of the certification,
and,
in the case of an understatement, shall pay to Landlord the deficiency in
Tenant's payment of Operating Costs and Taxes within thirty (30)
Page
12
days
following
Tenant's receipt of such certification. If, according to such certification,
Landlord's original determination of annual Operating Costs and Taxes overstated
the amounts thereof, in the aggregate, by more than seven percent (7%), then
Landlord shall pay the cost of the certification. In the event of Landlord's
overstatement, Landlord shall, at its election, either refund the amount
of
Tenant's overpayment of Operating Costs and Taxes within thirty (30) days
after
such certification or, if this Lease is still in effect, credit such overpayment
against Tenant's subsequent obligations to pay Operating Costs and
Taxes.
(e) Miscellaneous.
So long as an
Event of Default under Section 12.1(a) below exists under this Lease,
Tenant shall not be entitled to any refund of any amount from Landlord until
Tenant cures such Event of Default. If this Lease is terminated for any reason
prior to the annual determination of Operating Cost Share Rent or Tax Share
Rent, either party shall pay the full amount due to the other within fifteen
(15) days after Landlord's notice to Tenant of the amount when it is determined.
Landlord may commingle any payments made with respect to Operating Cost Share
Rent and Tax Share Rent, without payment of interest.
2.5 Additional
Rent
Upon Default by Tenant.
Landlord and
Tenant acknowledge that to induce Tenant to enter into this Lease, and in
consideration of Tenant's agreement to perform all of the terms, covenants
and
conditions to be performed by Tenant under this Lease, as and when performance
is due during the Term, Landlord has incurred (or will incur) significant
costs,
including, without limitation, the following: (a) payment of the
Construction Allowance (as described in the Tenant Improvement Agreement),
(b) commissions to Tenant's real estate broker, and (c) attorneys'
fees and related costs incurred and/or paid by Landlord in connection with
the
negotiation and preparation of this Lease (collectively, the "Inducements").
Landlord and
Tenant further acknowledge that Landlord would not have granted the Inducements
to Tenant but for Tenant's agreement to perform all of the terms, covenants,
conditions and agreements to be performed by it under this Lease for the
entire
Term, and that Landlord's agreement to incur such expenditures and grant
such
concessions is, and shall remain, conditioned upon Tenant's faithful performance
of all of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed
by
Tenant under this Lease for the entire Term. Accordingly, if an Event of
Default
by Tenant shall occur hereunder, Landlord shall be relieved of any unfulfilled
obligation to grant Inducements hereunder, or to incur further expenses in
connection therewith, and Tenant shall pay, as liquidated damages for Landlord's
granting the Inducements and not as a penalty, within ten (10) days after
the
occurrence of the Event of Default, as Additional Rent, the unamortized amount
of those Inducements incurred or granted prior to the date of the Event of
Default (the "Pre-Default
Inducements").
Landlord may or,
at Tenant's request, shall, after the occurrence of an Event of Default,
forward
a statement to Tenant setting forth the amount of the Pre-Default Inducements,
but the failure to deliver such a statement shall not be or be deemed to
be a
waiver of the right to collect the unamortized amount of the Pre-Default
Inducements or to extend the date upon which such amount shall be due and
payable. For purposes of this Section 2.5, the unamortized amount of the
Pre-Default Inducements shall equal the remaining principal component, measured
on the date of the Event of Default, of a level-payment amortization over
the
initial Term of this Lease of a principal amount equal to the Pre-Default
Inducements, including interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord agrees that it will seek to enforce
its
right to recover Pre-Default Inducements only in connection with a bankruptcy
of
Tenant where
Page
13
this
Lease is
rejected or deemed rejected under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy
Code.
3. PREPARATION
AND
CONDITION OF PREMISES; TENANT'S POSSESSION; REPAIRS AND
MAINTENANCE.
3.1 Condition
of
Premises.
Except as
specified in this Section 3.1 below, Landlord is leasing the Premises to
Tenant
"as is", without any obligation to alter, remodel, improve, repair or decorate
any part of the Premises and without any express or implied representations
or
warranties of any kind, including, without limitation, any
representation
or warranty regarding the condition of the Buildings or the Project or the
suitability of any of the foregoing for the conduct of Tenant's business;
provided, however, that, as
of the Premises
Delivery Date, the Premises shall comply in all material respects with all
applicable Governmental Requirements (as interpreted by applicable governmental
or quasi-governmental authorities as of the Premises Delivery Date), without
regard to any specific manner of use of the Premises by Tenant (e.g.,
as a "place of
public accommodation" under the Americans with Disabilities Act (the
"ADA")).
If Landlord or
Tenant receives written notice from any governmental or quasi-governmental
authority that any portion of the Premises violated Governmental Requirements
as
of the Premises Delivery Date, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for
any
damages, but Landlord, at no cost to Tenant, shall, as Tenant's sole remedy,
perform such work or take such other action as may be necessary to cure such
violation, but only to the extent that such violation materially and adversely
affects Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises.
3.2 Tenant's
Possession.
Tenant shall be
entitled to possession of the Premises upon commencement of the Term, together
with the nonexclusive right to use, in common with Landlord, other tenants,
and
occupants of the Project, the common areas of the Project, as such common
areas
may be changed from time to time, subject to the applicable provisions of
this
Lease (including, without limitation, Section 27 below). Tenant's taking
possession of any portion of the Premises shall be conclusive evidence that
the
Premises were in good order, repair and condition.
3.3 Repairs
and
Maintenance.
(a) Tenant's
Obligations.
(i) Except
to the extent
expressly Landlord's obligation under Section 3.3(b) below, Tenant shall,
throughout the Term at its sole cost and expense, (1) keep and maintain the
Premises in good order and condition, and repair and replace every part thereof
("Tenant's
Repair
Obligations"),
including,
without limitation, the following: (A) glass, windows, window frames,
window casements (including the repairing, resealing, cleaning and replacing
of
both interior and exterior windows) and skylights; (B) interior and
exterior doors, door frames and door closers; (C) interior lighting
(including, without limitation, light bulbs and ballasts); (D) the Building
Systems (as defined in Section 3.3(b) below), or portions of the Building
Systems, that exclusively serve the Premises, including, without limitation,
any
specialty or supplemental Building Systems installed by or for Tenant and
all
heating, ventilating and air conditioning ("HVAC")
systems and
equipment and all electrical facilities and equipment, including lighting
fixtures, lamps, fans and any exhaust equipment and systems, electrical motors
and all other appliances and equipment of every kind and nature located in,
upon
or about the Premises; (E) all communications systems serving the Premises;
(F) all of Tenant's security systems in or about or serving the Premises;
(G) Tenant's signage; and (H) interior
Page
14
demising
walls and
partitions (including painting and wallcoverings), equipment, floors, and
any
roll-up doors, ramps and dock equipment, (2) furnish all expendables,
including light bulbs, paper goods and soaps, used in the Premises, and
(3) to the extent that Landlord notifies Tenant in writing of its intention
to no longer arrange for such monitoring, cause the fire alarm systems serving
the Premises to be monitored by a monitoring or protective services firm
approved by Landlord in writing.
(ii) Tenant
shall also be
responsible for all pest control within the Premises, and for all trash removal
and disposal from the Premises. With respect to any HVAC systems and equipment
exclusively serving the Premises, Tenant shall obtain HVAC systems preventive
maintenance contracts with bimonthly or monthly service in accordance with
manufacturer recommendations, which shall be subject to the reasonable prior
written approval of Landlord and paid for by Tenant, and which shall provide
for
and include replacement of filters, oiling and lubricating of machinery,
parts
replacement, adjustment of drive belts, oil changes and other preventive
maintenance, including annual maintenance of duct work, interior unit drains
and
caulking of sheet metal, and recaulking of jacks and vents on an annual basis.
Tenant shall have the benefit of all warranties available to Landlord regarding
the HVAC systems and equipment.
(iii) Tenant's
repair,
maintenance and replacement obligations shall be performed under the supervision
and subject to the prior approval of Landlord, and within any reasonable
period
of time specified by Landlord; provided, however, that (1) with respect to
the Building Systems that exclusively serve the Premises, Landlord may elect
to
perform all or some of the foregoing maintenance, repairs and replacement
itself, at Tenant's expense, and (2) if Tenant fails to perform Tenant's
Repair Obligations, Landlord may immediately perform any such work at Tenant's
expense. Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs and expenses incurred by
Landlord and required to be paid by Tenant under this Section 3.3(a) within
ten
(10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor.
(b) Landlord's
Obligations.
(i) Subject
to the
provisions of Sections 3.1(a), 9 and 10 hereof, Landlord shall maintain,
repair
and replace the following items ("Landlord's
Repair
Obligations"):
(1) the
non-structural portions of the roof of the Buildings, including the roof
coverings (provided that Tenant installs no additional air conditioning or
other
equipment on the roof that damages the roof coverings, in which event Tenant
shall pay all costs resulting from the presence of such additional equipment);
(2) the HVAC, plumbing, sewer, drainage, electrical, fire protection,
elevator, escalator, life safety and security systems and equipment and other
mechanical, electrical and communications systems and equipment (collectively,
the "Building
Systems")
serving the
Buildings and/or the Project, excluding any specialty or supplemental Building
Systems installed by or for Tenant and also excluding the Building Systems
(or
portions of the Building Systems) that exclusively serve the Premises; and
(3) the parking areas of the Project, pavement, landscaping, sprinkler
systems, sidewalks, driveways, curbs, and lighting systems in the common
areas
of the Project. Landlord's Repair Obligations also includes the routine repair
and maintenance of the load bearing and exterior walls of the Buildings,
including, without limitation, any painting, sealing, patching and waterproofing
of such walls.
(ii) Subject
to the
provisions of Sections 3.1(a), 9 and 10 hereof, Landlord, at its own cost
and
expense, agrees to repair and maintain the structural
Page
15
portions
of the roof
(specifically excluding the roof coverings), the foundation, the footings,
the
floor slab, and the load bearing walls and exterior walls of the Buildings
(excluding any glass and any routine maintenance, including, without limitation,
any painting, sealing, patching and waterproofing of such walls); provided,
however, that subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 below, any damage
arising
from the acts of Tenant or any Tenant Parties (as defined in Section 8.2(a)
below) shall be repaired by Landlord at Tenant's sole expense, and Tenant
shall
pay to Landlord all costs and expenses of any such repair within ten (10)
days
after receipt of an invoice therefor. Landlord may, but shall not be required
to, enter the Premises at all reasonable times to make such repairs,
alterations, improvements or additions to the Buildings or to any equipment
located in the Buildings as Landlord shall desire or deem necessary or as
Landlord may be required to do by governmental or quasi-governmental authority
or court order or decree. The cost of any repairs made by Landlord on account
of
Tenant's default, or on account of the misuse or neglect by Tenant or any
Tenant
Parties anywhere in the Project, shall constitute Additional Rent payable
by
Tenant within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice therefor. As a condition
precedent to all of Landlord's repair and maintenance obligations under this
Lease, Tenant must have notified Landlord of the need of such repairs or
maintenance.
(iii) Tenant
hereby waives
any and all rights under and benefits of subsection 1 of Section 1932 and
Sections 1941 and 1942 of the California Civil Code and any similar or
successor law, statute or ordinance now or hereafter in effect regarding
Tenant's right to make repairs and deduct the cost of such repairs from the
Rent
due under this Lease..
4. SERVICES
AND
UTILITIES.
Beginning on the
Premises Delivery Date, Tenant shall promptly pay, as the same become due,
all
charges for water, gas, electricity, telephone, sewer service, waste pick-up
and
any other utilities, materials and services furnished directly to or used
by
Tenant on or about the Premises during the Term, including, without limitation,
(a) meter, use and/or connection fees, hook-up fees, or standby fees, and
(b)
penalties for discontinued interrupted service. If any utility service is
not
separately metered to the Premises, then Tenant shall pay its pro rata share
of
the cost of such utility service with all others served by the service not
separately metered. However, if Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant
is
using a disproportionate amount of any utility service (whether or not
separately metered), then Landlord, at its election, may (i) periodically
charge Tenant, as Additional Rent, a sum equal to Landlord's reasonable estimate
of the cost of Tenant's excess use of such utility service, and/or
(ii) install, at Tenant's expense, a separate meter to measure the utility
service supplied to the Premises. Any interruption or cessation of utilities
resulting from any causes, including any entry for repairs pursuant to this
Lease, and any renovation, redecoration or rehabilitation of any area of
the
Project, shall not render Landlord liable for damages to either person or
property or for interruption or loss to Tenant's business, nor be construed
as
an eviction of Tenant, nor work an abatement of any portion of Rent, nor
relieve
Tenant from fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof; provided, however,
that if (1) an interruption of the Project services occurs, (2) such
interruption prevents Tenant from occupying, and Tenant does not occupy,
all or
a material portion of the Premises for the Permitted Use for a period of
at
least seven (7) consecutive days, and (3) such interruption was caused solely
by
the negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents or employees,
then
monthly Rent shall thereafter be abated until the earlier of (i) the date
on
which such interruption ceases or (ii) the date on which Tenant resumes
occupying all or a material portion of the Premises. Such abatement shall
be in
proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises
that Tenant is prevented from occupying and does not occupy for the Permitted
Use bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises; provided, however,
that if the portion of the Premises that Tenant is
Page
16
prevented
from
occupying and does not occupy for the Permitted Use is so significant as
to
prevent Tenant from conducting business in the Premises, then the full amount
of
monthly Rent shall be abated during the abatement period described in the
preceding sentence. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the abatement set
forth
in this Section shall be its sole remedy in the event of a cessation or
interruption in the provision of Project services, and Tenant shall not have
any
right to offset or deduct any costs or expenses incurred by Tenant in connection
therewith against Rent.
5. ALTERATIONS
AND
REPAIRS.
5.1 Landlord's
Consent and Conditions.
(a) Tenant
shall not
make any improvements or alterations to the Premises (the "Alterations")
without in each
instance submitting plans and specifications for the Alterations to Landlord
and
obtaining Landlord's prior written consent. Tenant shall pay Landlord's standard
charge (or, if Landlord does not have a standard charge, then Landlord's
actual
costs incurred) for review of all of the plans and all other items submitted
by
Tenant. Landlord will be deemed to be acting reasonably in withholding its
consent for any Alterations which (i) impacts the base structural components
or
the Building Systems, (ii) impacts any other tenant's premises, (iii) is
visible
from outside the Premises, or (iv) would utilize building materials or equipment
which are inconsistent with Landlord's standard building materials and equipment
for the Project.
(b) Tenant
shall pay for
the cost of all Alterations, including the cost of any and all approvals,
permits, fees and other charges which may be required as a condition of
performing such Alterations.
(c) The
following
requirements shall apply to all Alterations:
(i) At
least seven (7)
days before beginning any Alterations, Tenant shall furnish to Landlord (1)
written notice of the expected commencement date of the Alterations to permit
Landlord to post and record a notice of nonresponsibility, (2) building permits,
and (3) certificates of insurance satisfactory to Landlord.
(ii) Tenant
shall not
take any action which would violate Landlord’s labor contracts or which would
cause a work stoppage, picketing, labor disruption or dispute, or interfere
with
Landlord’s or any other tenant’s or occupant’s business or with the rights and
privileges of any person lawfully in the Project (“Labor
Disturbance”).
Tenant shall
take the actions necessary to resolve any Labor Disturbance, and shall have
pickets removed and, at the request of Landlord, immediately terminate any
work
in the Premises that gave rise to the Labor Disturbance, until Landlord gives
its written consent for the work to resume. Tenant shall have no claim for
damages against Landlord or any of the Landlord Parties as a result of the
above
actions.
(iii) The
Alterations
shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, meeting the standard
for
construction and quality of materials in the Project, and shall comply with
all
insurance requirements and all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations
or
requirements of the United States of America, the State of California, or
the
ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county
governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project,
including, without limitation, any such laws,
Page
17
ordinances,
regulations or requirements relating to hazardous materials or substances,
as
those terms are defined by applicable laws now or hereafter in
effect
(collectively, "Governmental
Requirements").
(iv) Tenant
shall perform
all Alterations so as to minimize or prevent disruption to other tenants,
and
Tenant shall comply with all reasonable requests of Landlord in response
to
complaints from other tenants.
(v) Tenant
shall perform
all Alterations in compliance with any reasonable "Policies, Rules and
Procedures for Construction Projects" which may be in effect at the time
the
Alterations is performed.
(vi) All
Alterations
shall be performed only by contractors or mechanics approved by Landlord,
which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided,
however, that (1) Landlord may, in its sole discretion, specify engineers,
general contractors, subcontractors, and architects to perform work affecting
the Building Systems; and (2) if Landlord consents to any Alterations that
requires work to be performed outside the Premises, Landlord may elect to
perform such work at Tenant's expense.
(vii) Tenant
shall permit
Landlord to supervise all Alterations, including, without limitation, the
right
(but not an obligation) to inspect the construction work during the progress
thereof, and to require corrections of faulty construction or any material
deviation from the plans for such Alterations as approved by Landlord; provided,
however, that no such inspection shall be deemed to create any liability
on the
part of Landlord, or constitute a representation by Landlord or any person
hired
to perform such inspection that the work so inspected conforms with such
plans
or complies with any Governmental Requirements, and no such inspection shall
give rise to a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, Landlord's continuing
right at any time or from time to time to require the correction of any faulty
work or any material deviation from such plans.
(viii) Tenant
shall
reimburse Landlord for actual and reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in
connection with its management and supervision of the progress of the
Alterations; provided, however, that Tenant shall have no obligation to pay
Landlord under this Section 5.1(c)(viii) in the case of Alterations costing
less
than Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00).
(ix) Upon
completion,
Tenant shall furnish Landlord with contractor's affidavits and full and final
statutory waivers of liens, as-built plans and specifications, and receipted
bills covering all labor and materials, and all other close-out documentation
related to the Alterations, including any other information required under
any
"Policies, Rules and Procedures for Construction Projects" which may be in
effect at the time.
5.2 No
Liens.
Tenant has no
authority to cause or permit any lien or encumbrance of any kind to affect
Landlord's interest in the Project; any such lien or encumbrance shall attach
to
Tenant's interest only. If any mechanic's lien shall be filed or claim of
lien
made for work or materials furnished to Tenant, then Tenant shall at its
expense
within ten (10) days thereafter either discharge or contest the lien or claim.
If Tenant contests the lien or claim, then Tenant shall (a) within such ten
(10)
day period, provide Landlord adequate security for the lien or claim, (b)
contest the lien or claim in good faith by appropriate proceedings that operate
to stay its enforcement, and (c) pay promptly any final adverse
Page
18
judgment
entered in
any such proceeding. If Tenant does not comply with these requirements, Landlord
may discharge the lien or claim, and the amount paid, as well as attorney's
fees
and other expenses incurred by Landlord, shall constitute Additional Rent
payable by Tenant on demand.
5.3 Ownership
of
Improvements.
All Alterations as
defined in this Section 5, partitions, related hardware, and all other
improvements and all fixtures, except trade fixtures, furniture and other
personal property (which shall remain Tenant's property), constructed in
the
Premises by either Landlord or Tenant, (a) shall, subject to Tenant's right
to
use and depreciate (to the extent paid for by Tenant) the same during the
Term,
become Landlord's property upon installation without compensation to Tenant,
unless Landlord consents otherwise in writing, and (b) shall, at Landlord's
option, either (i) be surrendered to Landlord with the Premises at the
termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, or (ii) be
removed
in accordance with Section 14 below; provided, however, that if Tenant's
request
for Landlord's approval of any proposed Alterations contains a request, in
all
capital letters, that Landlord identify any portion of such Alterations that
Landlord will require Tenant to remove as provided above, then Landlord will,
at
the time it approves such Alterations, identify such portion of the Alterations,
if any, that Landlord will require Tenant to so remove.
6. USE
OF
PREMISES.
6.1 Limitation
on
Use.
Tenant shall use
the Premises only for the Permitted Use stated in the Schedule and
Tenant shall not
use or permit the Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose
or
purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which
may be
withheld in Landlord's sole discretion.
Tenant shall not
allow any use of the Premises which will negatively affect the cost of coverage
of Landlord's insurance on the Project. Tenant shall not allow any inflammable
or explosive liquids or materials to be kept on the Premises. Tenant shall
not
allow any use of the Premises which would cause the value or utility of any
part
of the Premises to diminish or would interfere with any other tenant or with
the
operation of the Project by Landlord. Tenant shall not permit any nuisance
or
waste to occur in, on, or about the Project, or allow any offensive noise
or
odor in or around the Project. At the end of each business day, or more
frequently if necessary, Tenant shall deposit all garbage and other trash
(excluding any inflammable, explosive and/or hazardous materials) in trash
bins
or containers approved by Landlord in locations designated by Landlord from
time
to time. If any governmental authority shall deem the Premises to be a "place
of
public accommodation" under the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA")
or any other
comparable law as a result of Tenant's use, Tenant shall either modify its
use
to cause such authority to rescind its designation or be responsible for
any
alterations, structural or otherwise, required to be made to the Premises
under
such laws.
6.2 Signs.
Tenant shall not
place on any portion of the Premises any sign, placard, lettering, banner,
displays, graphic, decor or other advertising or communicative material which
is
visible from the exterior of the Premises without Landlord's prior written
approval. Any approved signs shall strictly conform to all Governmental
Requirements, any CC&R's recorded against the Project, and Landlord's
signage standards in effect at the time, and shall be installed and removed
at
Tenant's expense. Tenant, at its sole expense, shall maintain such signs
in good
condition and repair during the Term. Prior to the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease, Tenant at its sole cost shall remove all of its
exterior signage and repair any and all damage caused to the Buildings and/or
Project (including and fading or discoloration)
by
such signs and/or the removal of such signs from the Building and/or Project.

6.3 Parking.
Tenant shall have
the non-exclusive right to park in the Project's parking facilities in common
with other tenants of the Project upon terms and conditions, as may from
time to
time be established by Landlord. Tenant agrees not to overburden the parking
facilities (i.e.,
use more than the
number of unassigned parking stalls indicated on the Schedule) and agrees
to
cooperate with Landlord and other tenants in the Project in the use of the
parking facilities. Landlord reserves the right in its reasonable discretion
to
determine whether the parking facilities are becoming crowded and to allocate
and assign parking passes among Tenant and the other tenants in the Project.
Tenant's use of the parking facilities shall be at no charge, provided that
Landlord shall have the right to charge Tenant the portion that Landlord
deems
allocable to Tenant of any charges (e.g.,
fees or taxes)
imposed by the Regional Air Quality Control Board or other governmental or
quasi-governmental agency in connection with the parking facilities
(e.g.,
in connection with
operation or use of the parking facilities). Landlord shall not be liable
to
Tenant, nor shall this Lease be affected, if any parking is impaired by (or
if
any parking charges are imposed as a result of) any moratorium, initiative,
referendum, law, ordinance, regulation or order passed, issued or made by
any
governmental or quasi-governmental body. Tenant's continued right to use
the
parking spaces is conditioned upon Tenant abiding by all rules and regulations
which are prescribed from time to time for the orderly operation and use
of the
parking facility where the parking passes are located, including any sticker
or
other identification system established by Landlord, Tenant's cooperation
in
seeing that Tenant's employees and visitors also comply with such rules and
regulations and Tenant not being in default under this Lease. Landlord
specifically reserves the right to change the size, configuration, design,
layout and all other aspects of the Project parking facility at any time
and
Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord may, without incurring any
liability to Tenant and without any abatement of Rent under this Lease, from
time to time, close-off or restrict access to the Project parking facility
for
purposes of permitting or facilitating any such construction, alteration
or
improvements. Landlord may delegate its responsibilities hereunder to a parking
operator in which case such parking operator shall have all the rights of
control attributed hereby to the Landlord. The parking passes rented by Tenant
pursuant to this Section 6.3 are provided to Tenant solely for use by
Tenant's own personnel and such passes may not be transferred, assigned,
subleased or otherwise alienated by Tenant without Landlord's prior
approval.
6.4 Prohibition
Against Use of Roof and Structure of Buildings.
(a) Except
as otherwise
provided in this Lease, Tenant shall be prohibited from using all or any
portion
of the roof of the Buildings or any portion of the structure of the Buildings
during the Term of this Lease (or any extensions thereof) for any purposes
(including without limitation for the installation, maintenance and repair
of a
satellite dish and/or other telecommunications equipment), without Landlord's
prior written consent, which Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute
discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) Landlord shall grant Tenant
with reasonable access to the roof of the Buildings as may be reasonably
necessary to allow Tenant to perform its HVAC and other maintenance obligations
hereunder, provided that such access shall be subject to any reasonable rules
and restrictions that Landlord may impose from time to time; and (b) Tenant
may, subject to Landlord's reasonable installation, use and removal
requirements, use the roof for the installation and maintenance of surveying
and
GPS equipment and monitors (including, without limitation, cable and antenna
connections) to service Tenant's business in the Premises. Landlord has made
no
representations
or
promise as to the suitability or effectiveness of any part of the roof for
Tenant's proposed use, or as to any Governmental Requirements applicable
to
Tenant's proposed use.
Page
20
(b) Tenant
shall submit
to Landlord Tenant's plans and specifications for the rooftop equipment,
which
must include, without limitation, the design, size and features of the rooftop
equipment and mounting structure, floor and power load requirements, cabling
installations, the means of affixing or mounting the rooftop equipment, and
the
means of connecting the rooftop equipment to the Building's electrical system
and to the Premises. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Tenant's use of
any
portion of the roof of the Building shall be subject to Landlord’s reasonable
approval of location, plans and installation pursuant to Section 5 of this
Lease
and such rules and regulations as Landlord may prescribe, including, without
limitation, with regard to (a) the location, size, type and methods of
installation of the proposed rooftop equipment, (b) requirements to prevent
electrical, electromagnetic, radio frequency or other interference with other
telecommunication equipment on or about the Project, (c) restrictions on
penetration of the roof surface, (d) rooftop access rights, and (e) removal
requirements upon the expiration or earlier termination of this
Lease.
(c) Nothing
herein shall
limit or restrict Landlord's rights under Section 11.13, or require Landlord
to
obtain Tenant's consent prior to exercising such rights.
(d) For
the avoidance of
doubt, Landlord acknowledges that, subject to the foregoing and other applicable
provisions of this Lease, Tenant may install and maintain a GPS system and
related equipment upon the roof of each Building to the extent necessary
to the
operation of Tenant’s business in the Premises.
7. GOVERNMENTAL
REQUIREMENTS AND BUILDING RULES.
7.1 Compliance
in
Premises.
Tenant shall, at
its sole cost and expense, (1) comply with all Governmental Requirements;
with any occupancy certificate issued for the Premises; and with the provisions
of all recorded documents affecting the Premises, insofar as any thereof
relates
to or affects the condition, use or occupancy of the Premises; and (2) take
all proper and necessary action to cause the Premises, including any repairs,
replacements, alterations and improvements thereto, to be maintained,
constructed, used and occupied in compliance with applicable Governmental
Requirements, including any applicable code and ADA requirements, whether
or not
such requirements are based on Tenant's use of the Premises, and further
to
assume all responsibility to ensure that the Premises continues to comply
with
all Governmental Requirements, including applicable code and ADA requirements,
throughout the Term. Tenant
shall be
responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to make all alterations to the
Premises as are required to comply with the governmental rules, regulations,
requirements or standards described in this Section 7.1. The judgment of
any
court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial
action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has
violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact
as
between Landlord and Tenant.
7.2 Compliance
in
Common Areas.
Subject to
reimbursement as an Operating Cost as provided in Section 2 above, Landlord
shall perform any work required under any applicable Governmental Requirements,
including the ADA, to be performed in the common areas of the Project,
except
that Tenant shall be solely responsible for all such compliance work which
is
required as a result of Tenant's use or activities or which relate to the
initial Tenant
Page
21
Improvements
or
Tenant's proposed alterations or repairs. With
respect to any
code compliance work required outside the Premises for which Tenant is
responsible hereunder, Landlord shall have the right to perform such work,
or
require that Tenant perform such work with contractors, subcontractors,
engineers and architects approved by Landlord; and if Landlord elects to
perform
such work outside the Premises, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost
of
such work within ten (10) days following receipt of invoices therefor.
Except
as expressly provided in this Lease, Landlord
makes no
representations or warranties regarding whether the Project or the Premises
complies with applicable Governmental Requirements as of the date of this
Lease.
7.3 Rules
and
Regulations.
Tenant shall also
comply with all reasonable rules for the Project which may be established
and
amended from time to time by Landlord. The present rules and regulations
are
contained in Exhibit
B.
Failure by another tenant to comply with the rules or failure by Landlord
to
enforce them shall not relieve Tenant of its obligation to comply with the
rules
or make Landlord responsible to Tenant in any way. Landlord shall use reasonable
efforts to apply the rules and regulations uniformly with respect to Tenant
and
any other tenants in the Project under leases containing rules and regulations
similar to this Lease. If Tenant performs alterations or repairs, Tenant
shall
comply with the provisions of Section 5 of this Lease.
8. WAIVER
OF CLAIMS;
INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE.
8.1 Waiver
of
Claims.
Neither Landlord
nor the other Landlord Parties (as defined below) shall be liable to Tenant
or
to any Tenant Parties (as defined below), and Tenant waives all claims against
Landlord and such other Landlord Parties, for any injury to or death of any
person or for loss of use of or damage to or destruction of property in or
about
the Premises or Project by or from any cause whatsoever, including without
limitation, earthquake or earth movement, gas, fire, oil, electricity or
leakage
from the roof, walls, basement or other portion of the Premises or Project,
except only, with respect to any Landlord Party, to the extent such injury,
death or damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such
Landlord Party and not covered by the insurance required to be carried by
Tenant
hereunder or except to the extent such limitation on liability is prohibited
by
law. The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease until all claims within the scope of this Section
8.1
are fully, finally, and absolutely barred by the applicable statutes of
limitations.
8.2 Indemnification.
(a) Tenant
shall
indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Landlord)
and
hold harmless Landlord and its officers, directors, employees and agents
(each,
a "Landlord
Party"
and collectively,
the "Landlord
Parties"),
and each of
them, against any and all obligations, losses, claims, actions (including
remedial or enforcement actions of any kind and administrative or judicial
proceedings, suits, orders or judgments), causes of action, liabilities,
penalties, damages (including consequential and punitive damages), costs
and
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' and consultants' fees and expenses)
(collectively, "Claims")
arising from any
of the following, including, but not limited to, Claims brought by or on
behalf
of employees of Tenant, with respect to which Tenant waives, for the benefit
of
the Landlord Parties, any immunity to which Tenant may be entitled under
any
worker's compensation laws: (i) any cause in, on or about the Premises, (ii)
any
act or omission or negligence of Tenant or any person or entity claiming
by or
through Tenant (including any assignee or subtenant), or any of their respective
members, partners, employees, contractors,
Page
22
agents,
customers,
visitors, licensees or other persons in or about the Project by reason of
Tenant's occupancy of the Premises (each a "Tenant
Party"
and, collectively,
"Tenant
Parties"),
or (iii)
Tenant's breach of its obligations under this Lease, either prior to, during,
or
after the expiration of the Lease Term (including, without limitation, Tenant's
failure to surrender the Premises in accordance with Section 14 below);
provided, however, that, with respect to any Landlord Party, Tenant's
obligations under this Section shall be inapplicable to the extent such Claims
arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Landlord Party
and
are not covered by the insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder,
or
to the extent such obligations are prohibited by applicable law.
(b) Tenant's
duty to
defend Landlord and the other Landlord Parties under this Section 8.2 is
separate and independent of Tenant's duty to indemnify the Landlord Parties.
The
duty to defend includes claims for which the Landlord Parties may be liable
without fault or strictly liable. The duty to defend applies regardless of
whether the issues of negligence, liability, fault, default, or other obligation
on the part of Tenant Parties have been determined. The duty to defend applies
immediately, regardless of whether any Landlord Parties have paid any sums
or
incurred any detriment arising out of or relating (directly or indirectly)
to
any Claims. The parties expressly intend that Landlord Parties shall be entitled
to obtain summary adjudication or summary judgment regarding Tenant's duty
to
defend the Landlord Parties at any stage of any claim or suit within the
scope
of this Section.
(c) Tenant's
obligations
under this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of
this
Lease until all Claims within the scope of this Section 8.2 are fully, finally,
and absolutely barred by the applicable statutes of limitations.
8.3 Tenant's
Insurance.
Tenant shall
maintain insurance as follows, with such other terms, coverages and insurers,

property in or on the Premises, with a deductible not greater than Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00).
(c) Business

8.3(a). The company or companies writing any insurance which Tenant is required
to maintain under this Lease, as well as the form of such insurance, shall
at
all times be subject to Landlord's approval, and any such company shall be
licensed to do business in the State of California. Such insurance companies
shall have a A.M. Best rating of A VI or better.
(e) Tenant
shall cause

as follows, with such other terms, coverages and insurers, as Landlord shall
reasonably require from time to time:

liability coverage, completed operations coverage, broad form property damage

compensation or similar insurance in form and amounts required by law, and

Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord certificates evidencing all required insurance no later

Insurance.
Subject to
reimbursement as an Operating Cost in accordance with the provisions of Section
2 hereof, Landlord shall procure and maintain in effect throughout the Term
of
this Lease commercial general liability insurance, property insurance and/or
such other types of insurance as Landlord reasonably deems necessary
or
Page
24
advisable
to carry.
Such coverages shall be in such amounts, from such companies and on such
other
terms and conditions as Landlord may from time to time reasonably determine,
and
Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to change, cancel,
decrease or increase any insurance coverages in respect of the Buildings,
add
additional forms of insurance as Landlord shall deem reasonably necessary,
and/or obtain umbrella or other policies covering both the Buildings and
other
assets owned by or associated with Landlord or its affiliates, in which event
the cost thereof shall be equitably allocated.
8.6 Waiver
of
Subrogation.
Landlord and
Tenant hereby waive and release any and all rights of recovery against the
other
party, including officers, employees, agents and authorized representatives
(whether in contract or tort) of such other party, that arise or result from
any
and all loss of or damage to any property of the waiving party located within
or
constituting part of the Buildings, to the extent of amounts payable under
a
standard ISO Commercial Property insurance policy, or such additional property
coverage as the waiving party may carry (with a commercially reasonable
deductible), whether or not the party suffering the loss or damage actually
carries any insurance, recovers under any insurance or self-insures the loss
or
damage. Each party shall have their property insurance policies issued in
such
form as to waive any right of subrogation as might otherwise exist. This
mutual
waiver is in addition to any other waiver or release contained in this
Lease.
9. FIRE
AND OTHER
CASUALTY.
9.1 Termination.
If a fire or other
casualty causes damage to the Premises, and sufficient insurance proceeds
will
be available to Landlord to cover the cost of restoration, Landlord shall
engage
a registered architect to estimate, within one (1) month of the casualty,
to
both Landlord and Tenant the amount of time needed to restore the Premises
to
tenantability, using standard working methods without the payment of overtime
and other premiums. If the time needed exceeds nine (9) months from the date
of
the casualty, or two (2) months therefrom if the casualty occurred during
the
last twelve (12) months of the Lease, then either Landlord or Tenant may
terminate this Lease, by notice to the other party within ten (10) days after
the notifying party's receipt of the architect's estimate. If sufficient
insurance proceeds will not be available to Landlord to cover the cost of
restoration to the Premises, Landlord may terminate this Lease by written
notice
to Tenant. Any termination pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall be effective
thirty (30) days from the date of such termination notice and Rent shall
be paid
by Tenant to that date, with an abatement for any portion of the Premises
which
has been rendered untenantable as a result of the casualty (except to the
extent
that (a) the casualty was caused by the gross negligence or intentional
misconduct of Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, subtenants or
assignees, or (b) provided the same does not result from Landlord's breach
of
its obligations under Section 8.5 above, Landlord does not receive insurance
proceeds sufficient to cover the rent interruption during such
period).
9.2 Restoration.
If a casualty
causes damage to the Premises but this Lease is not terminated for any reason,
then subject to the rights of any mortgagees or ground lessors, Landlord
shall
obtain the applicable insurance proceeds and diligently restore the Premises
to
substantially their prior condition, except for modifications required by
then
applicable Governmental Requirements; provided, however, that, within ten
(10)
days following notice to Tenant from Landlord (whether or not this Lease
is
terminated pursuant to Section 9.1 above), Tenant shall irrevocably and
unconditionally assign to Landlord (or to any party designated by Landlord)
all
insurance proceeds payable to Tenant under Tenant's insurance required under
Section 8.3(b) above which pertain to the repair and restoration of the
leasehold improvements
Page
25
in
the Premises,
including any leasehold improvements performed by or on behalf of Tenant
pursuant to Section 5 above; and provided further, that if the cost of repair
and restoration by Landlord of the leasehold improvements in the Premises
exceeds the amount of insurance proceeds received by Landlord from Tenant's
insurance carrier, the cost of such repair and restoration shall be promptly
paid by Tenant to Landlord, but in any event prior to Landlord's commencement
of
repair of the damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall have
no
obligation with respect to, and if Landlord elects or is required to perform
any
restoration hereunder, Tenant shall be responsible for and shall, repair
and
replace at its sole cost all of Tenant's equipment, furniture, trade fixtures
and other personal property in the Premises, including, without limitation,
any
telecommunications wires, cables and related devices located in or serving
the
Premises. Rent shall be abated on a per diem basis during the restoration
for
any portion of the Premises which is untenantable, except to the extent that
(a)
the casualty was caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct
of
Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors, subtenants or assignees,
(b) Landlord is delayed in completing the repair or restoration as a result
of any act, omission, neglect or failure of Tenant or any of Tenant's agents,
employees, contractors or subcontractors or (c) provided the same does not
result from Landlord's breach of its obligations under Section 8.5 above,
Landlord does not receive insurance proceeds sufficient to cover the rent
interruption during such period. Tenant shall not be entitled to any
compensation or damages from Landlord for loss of the use of the Premises,
damage to Tenant's personal property and trade fixtures or any inconvenience
occasioned by such damage, repair or restoration. Tenant hereby waives the
provisions of Section 1932, Subdivision 2, and Section 1933, Subdivision
4, of
the California Civil Code, and the provisions of any similar law hereinafter
enacted.
10. EMINENT
DOMAIN.
If a part of the
Project is taken by eminent domain or deed in lieu thereof that is so
substantial that the Premises cannot reasonably be used by Tenant for the
operation of its business, then Tenant may terminate this Lease effective
as of
the date of the taking. If any substantial portion of the Project is taken
without affecting the Premises, then Landlord may terminate this Lease as
of the
date of such taking. Rent shall xxxxx from the date of the taking in proportion
to any part of the Premises taken. The entire award for a taking of any kind
shall be paid to Landlord, and Tenant shall have no right to share in the
award;
provided, however, that (a) the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit
Tenant
from filing a separate claim at its sole cost and expense for an award or
portion thereof separately designated for (i) relocation costs, and (ii)
moving
expenses, and (b) Tenant shall be entitled to the unamortized portion of
the
value of all Alterations performed in the Premises by Tenant during the Term
(such amortization to be calculated on a straight-line basis over the Term
of
this Lease, without regard to any future extension terms as of the date of
the
Taking). All obligations accrued to the date of the taking shall be performed
by
the party liable to perform said obligations, as set forth herein. Tenant
hereby waives
any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section 1265.130 of
the
California Code of Civil Procedure.
11. RIGHTS
RESERVED
TO LANDLORD.
Landlord
may
exercise at any time any of the following rights respecting the operation
of the
Project without liability to Tenant of any kind:
11.1 Name.
To change the name
of the Project.
11.2 Signs.
To install, modify
and/or maintain any signs on the exterior and in the interior of the Buildings
or on the Project, and to approve at its sole discretion, prior to
Page
26
installation,
any of
Tenant's signs in the Premises visible from the common areas or the exterior
of
the Premises.
11.3 Window
Treatments.
To approve, at its
discretion, prior to installation, any shades, blinds, ventilators or window
treatments of any kind, as well as any lighting within the Premises that
may be
visible from the exterior of the Premises or any interior common area.
11.4 Keys.
To retain and use
at any time passkeys to enter the Premises or any door within the Premises,
subject to Section 11.5 below. Tenant shall not alter or add any lock or
bolt
without Landlord's prior written consent.
11.5 Access.
To have access to
the Premises with twenty-four hours' prior notice (except in the case of
an
emergency, in which case Landlord shall have the right to immediate access)
to
inspect the Premises, to post notices of non-responsibility in connection
with
any Alterations, to make repairs, alterations, additions or improvements
to the
Premises, and to perform any other obligations of Landlord hereunder, all
without abatement of Rent. Landlord shall, subject to Tenant's compliance
with
its obligations pursuant to this Section 11.5, follow Tenant's commercially
reasonable security requirements in connection with any entry by Landlord
into
the Premises. If Tenant requires that all persons entering the Premises shall
be
attended by a representative of Tenant, Tenant shall make a representative
available upon 24 hours' prior telephone notice by Landlord. In the event
of an
emergency, however, Landlord shall use good-faith efforts to follow Tenant's
security requirements, but Landlord will be required to give only such notice
that it in good faith believes is feasible under the circumstances and need
not
wait to be accompanied by Tenant or its employees or representatives (although
these parties may still accompany Landlord if they are available and wish
to do
so).
11.6 Preparation
for
Reoccupancy.
To decorate,
remodel, repair, alter or otherwise prepare the Premises for reoccupancy
at any
time after Tenant abandons the Premises, without relieving Tenant of any
obligation to pay Rent.
11.7 Heavy
Articles.
To approve the
weight, size, placement and time and manner of movement within the Premises
of
any safe, central filing system or other heavy article of Tenant's property.
Tenant shall move its property entirely at its own risk. Landlord's approval
under this Section 11.7 shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed. In determining whether to grant such approval, Landlord may (i)
elect
to retain a structural consultant to review the impact, if any, of any such
heavy articles on the Project, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all
costs
associated with such structural review, or (ii) require Tenant to provide
Landlord with documentation reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and prepared
by
a structural consultant that the heavy article will not result in any damage
to
the Project. Without limiting the grounds upon which Landlord may reasonably
withhold its approval under this Section, it shall be reasonable for Landlord
to
withhold its approval if, in Landlord's reasonable opinion, the heavy article
will damage any portion of the Project.
11.8 Show
Premises.
To show the
Premises to prospective purchasers, tenants, brokers, lenders, mortgagees,
investors, rating agencies or others at any reasonable time, provided that
Landlord gives no less than twenty-four (24) hours' prior notice to Tenant
and
such showing does not materially interfere with Tenant's use of the
Premises.
11.9 Intentionally
Omitted
Page
27
11.10 Use
of
Lockbox.
To designate a
lockbox collection agent for collections of amounts due Landlord. In that
case,
the date of payment of Rent or other sums shall be the date of the agent's
receipt of such payment or the date of actual collection if payment is made
in
the form of a negotiable instrument thereafter dishonored upon presentment.
However, Landlord may reject any payment for all purposes as of the date
of
receipt or actual collection by mailing to Tenant within a reasonable time
after
such receipt or collection a check equal to the amount sent by
Tenant.
11.11 Repairs
and
Alterations.

alterations to the Project, to close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators
and
other facilities in the Project or to temporarily suspend services or use
of
common areas in the Project. Landlord may perform any such repairs or
alterations during ordinary business hours. Landlord may do or permit any
work
on any nearby building, land, street, alley or way. Notwithstanding any
provision in the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord shall make commercially
reasonable efforts to give Tenant at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior
notice
(which may be written or verbal) of any scheduled repair or alteration to
be
made by Landlord to the Project that may materially interfere with Tenant's
access to, or operation of business in, the Premises; provided, however,
that in
the event of an emergency, Landlord shall provide such notice as is reasonable
under the circumstances.
11.12 Intentionally
Omitted
11.13 Use
of
Roof.
To install,
operate, maintain and repair any satellite dish, antennae, equipment, or
other
facility on the roof of each Building or to use the roof of the Buildings
in any
other manner, or to allow any entity selected by Landlord to undertake the
foregoing, provided that such installation, operation, maintenance, repair
or
use does not unreasonably interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises or
Tenant's installation and maintenance of a GPS system and related equipment
pursuant to Section 6.4 above.
11.14 Other
Actions.
To take any other
action which Landlord deems reasonable in connection with the operation,
maintenance or preservation of the Buildings and the Project.
12. EVENTS
OF
DEFAULT.
12.1 Tenant's
Default.
The occurrence of
any one or more of the following events (each, an “Event
of
Default”)
shall constitute
a breach of this Lease by Tenant:

fails to pay
any Rent when due and such failure continues for five (5) days or more following
Landlord's notice of such failure.
(b) Tenant

commercially reasonable level of security, or without providing
reasonable

fails to
perform any obligation to Landlord under this Lease other than those described
in Sections 12.1(a), 12.1(b) or 12.1(c) above, and such failure continues
for
ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord or Landlord's agent, except
that if Tenant begins to cure its failure within the ten (10) day period
but
cannot reasonably complete its cure within such period, then, so long as
Tenant
continues to diligently attempt to cure its failure, the ten (10) day period
shall be extended to sixty (60) days, or such lesser period as is reasonably
necessary to complete the cure.
(e) One
of the following
credit defaults occurs:
(i) Tenant
(or any
guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder) commences any proceeding under
any
law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debts,
or
seeks appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official
for the Tenant (or the guarantor) or for any substantial part of its property,
or any such proceeding is commenced against Tenant (or the guarantor) and
either
remains undismissed for a period of thirty (30) days or results in the entry
of
an order for relief against Tenant (or the guarantor) which is not fully
stayed
within seven (7) days after entry;
(ii) Tenant
(or any
guarantor of Tenant's obligations hereunder) becomes insolvent or bankrupt,
does
not generally pay its debts as they become due, or admits in writing its
inability to pay its debts, or makes a general assignment for the benefit
of
creditors;
(iii) Any
third party
obtains a levy or attachment under process of law against Tenant's leasehold
interest.
(f) Tenant
fails to cure
any default under the Other Lease (as defined in Section 1.4 above), within
any
applicable times permitted under the Other Lease (and any Event of Default
under
this Lease shall, at Landlord's election, constitute a default under the
Other
Lease).
Tenant
acknowledges
and agrees that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
12,
Tenant shall be in default for purposes of Section 1161 of the California
Code
of Civil Procedure immediately following Tenant's failure to perform or comply
with any covenants, agreements, terms or conditions of this Lease to be
performed or observed by Tenant, including, without limitation, Tenant's
failure
to pay Rent when due, and that any notices required to be given by Landlord
under this Section 12 shall, in each case, be in lieu of, and not in addition
to, any notice required under Section 1161 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure, and shall be deemed to satisfy the requirement, if any, that notice
be given pursuant to such section.
12.2 Landlord
Defaults.
Landlord shall be
in default hereunder if Landlord has not begun and pursued with reasonable
diligence the cure of any failure of Landlord to meet its obligations hereunder
within thirty (30) days after the receipt by Landlord of written notice from
Tenant of the alleged failure to perform. Except as expressly provided in
this
Lease or except in the case of constructive eviction (as evidenced by a final,
unappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), in no event
shall
Tenant have the right to terminate or rescind this Lease as a result of
Landlord's default as to any covenant or agreement contained in
this
Page
29
Lease.
Tenant hereby
waives such remedies of termination and rescission and hereby agrees that
Tenant's remedies for default hereunder and for breach of any promise or
inducement shall be limited to a suit for damages and/or injunction. In
addition, Tenant hereby covenants that, prior to the exercise of any such
remedies, Tenant will give notice and a reasonable time to cure any default
by
Landlord to any holder of a mortgage or deed of trust encumbering Landlord's
interest in the Project of which Tenant has been given notice. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, Landlord
shall not
be in default under this Lease to the extent Landlord is unable to perform
any
of its obligations on account of any prevention, delay, stoppage due to strikes,
lockouts, inclement weather, labor disputes, inability to obtain labor,
materials, fuels, energy or reasonable substitutes therefor, governmental
restrictions, regulations, controls, actions or inaction, civil commotion,
fire
or other acts of god, national emergency, acts
of war or
terrorism or
any other cause
of any kind beyond the reasonable control of Landlord (except financial
inability).
13. LANDLORD
REMEDIES.
UPON
ANY EVENT OF
DEFAULT BY TENANT (WITHIN THE MEANING XX XXXXXXX 00.0 XXXXX), XXXXXXXX SHALL
HAVE THE FOLLOWING REMEDIES, IN ADDITION TO ALL OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
PROVIDED BY LAW OR OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS LEASE, TO WHICH LANDLORD MAY
RESORT CUMULATIVELY OR IN THE ALTERNATIVE:
13.1 Termination
of
Lease.
Landlord may elect
by notice to Tenant to terminate this Lease, in which event, Tenant shall
immediately vacate the Premises and deliver possession to Landlord.
13.2 Civil
Code
Section 1951.4 Remedy.
Even though Tenant
has breached this Lease, this Lease shall continue in effect for so long
as
Landlord does not terminate Tenant's right to possession, and Landlord shall
have all of its rights and remedies, including the right, pursuant to California
Civil Code Section 1951.4, to recover all rent as it becomes due under this
Lease, if Tenant has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable
limitations. Acts of maintenance or preservation or efforts to relet the
Premises or the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of Landlord to
protect
Landlord's interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of
Tenant's right to possession unless written notice of termination is given
by
Landlord to Tenant.
13.3 Lease
Termination
Damages.
If Landlord elects
to terminate this Lease, then this Lease shall terminate on the date for
termination set forth in such notice. Tenant shall immediately vacate the
Premises and deliver possession to Landlord, and Landlord may repossess the
Premises and may, at Tenant's sole cost, remove any of Tenant's signs and
any of
its other property, without relinquishing its right to receive Rent or any
other
right against Tenant. On termination, Landlord has the right to recover from
Tenant as damages:
(a) The
worth at the
time of award of unpaid Rent and other sums due and payable which had been
earned at the time of termination; plus
(b) The
worth at the
time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and
payable 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;
plus
Page
30
(c) The
worth at the
time of award of the amount by which the unpaid Rent and other sums due and
payable for the balance of the Term after the time of award exceeds the amount
of such Rent loss that Tenant proves could be reasonably avoided;
plus
(d) Any
other amount
necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused
by
Tenant's failure to perform Tenant's obligations under this Lease, or which,
in
the ordinary course of things, would be likely to result therefrom, including,
without limitation, any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord: (i) in retaking
possession of the Premises; (ii) in maintaining, repairing, preserving,
restoring, replacing, cleaning, altering or rehabilitating the Premises or
any
portion thereof, including such acts for reletting to a new tenant or tenants;
(iii) for leasing commissions; or (iv) for any other costs necessary or
appropriate to relet the Premises; plus
(e) At
Landlord's
election, such other amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as
may
be permitted from time to time by the laws of the State of
California.
The
"worth at the
time of award" of the amounts referred to in Sections 13.3(a) and 13.3(b)
is
computed by allowing interest at the Interest Rate on the unpaid rent and
other
sums due and payable from the termination date through the date of award.
The
"worth at the time of award" of the amount referred to in Section 13.3(c)
is
computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve
Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%). Tenant
waives
redemption or relief from forfeiture under California Code of Civil Procedure
Sections 1174 and 1179, or under any other present or future law, if Tenant
is
evicted or Landlord takes possession of the Premises by reason of any Event
of
Default by Tenant hereunder.
13.4 Landlord's
Remedies Cumulative.
All of Landlord's
remedies under this Lease shall be in addition to all other remedies Landlord
may have at law or in equity,
including, without
limitation, the remedy described in California Civil Code Section 1951.4
(pursuant to which Landlord may continue this Lease in effect after Tenant's
breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due if Tenant has the
right to sublet or assign the Lease, subject to reasonable
limitations).
Waiver by Landlord
of any breach of any obligation by Tenant shall be effective only if it is
in
writing, and shall not be deemed a waiver of any other breach, or any subsequent
breach of the same obligation. The possession of Tenant's funds, negotiation
of
Tenant's negotiable instruments, or acceptance of Tenant's payment by Landlord
or its agents shall not constitute a waiver of any breach by Tenant, and
if such
possession, negotiation or acceptance occurs after Landlord's notice to Tenant,
or termination of this Lease or of Tenant's right to possession, such
possession, negotiation or acceptance shall not affect such notice or
termination. Acceptance of payment by Landlord after commencement of a legal
proceeding or final judgment shall not affect such proceeding or judgment.
Landlord may advance such monies and take such other actions for Tenant's
account as reasonably may be required to cure or mitigate any default by
Tenant.
Tenant shall immediately reimburse Landlord for any such advance, and such
sums
shall bear interest at the Interest Rate until paid.
13.5 WAIVER
OF
TRIAL BY JURY.
TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IF ANY
LEGAL
PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT BY THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE. EACH PARTY
SHALL BRING ANY ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE IN
A
Page
31
FEDERAL
OR
STATE COURT LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS,
AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE ANY PROCEEDING TRANSFERRED FROM SUCH COURTS
ON THE
GROUND OF IMPROPER VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION
13.5 SHALL SURVIVE THE EXPIRATION OR EARLIER TERMINATION OF THIS
LEASE.
14. SURRENDER.
Upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease for any reason, Tenant shall
surrender the Premises to Landlord in its condition existing as of the date
Landlord delivers possession of the Premises to Tenant, normal wear and tear
and
damage by fire or other casualty excepted, with all interior walls repaired
and
repainted if marked or damaged, all carpets shampooed and cleaned, all broken,
marred or nonconforming acoustical ceiling tiles replaced, all windows washed,
the plumbing and electrical systems and lighting in good order and repair,
including replacement of any burned out or broken light bulbs or ballasts,
the
HVAC equipment serviced and repaired by a reputable and licensed service
firm
acceptable to Landlord, and all floors cleaned and waxed, all to the reasonable
satisfaction of Landlord. Tenant shall remove from the Premises and the Project
all of Tenant's trade fixtures, furniture, moveable equipment and other personal
property, and any Alterations which Landlord elects to be removed pursuant
to
Section 5.3, and shall restore the Premises to its condition prior to their
installation, including, without limitation, repairing all damage caused
by the
installation or removal of any of the foregoing items. If Tenant does not
timely
remove such property, then Tenant shall be conclusively presumed to have,
at
Landlord's election: (a) conveyed such property to Landlord without compensation
or (b) abandoned such property, and Landlord may dispose of or store any
part
thereof in any manner at Tenant's sole cost, without waiving Landlord's right
to
claim from Tenant all expenses arising out of Tenant's failure to remove
the
property, and without liability to Tenant or any other person. Landlord shall
have no duty to be a bailee of any such personal property. If Landlord elects
to
consider such property abandoned,
Tenant shall be
liable to Landlord for the costs of: (i) removal of any such Alterations
or
personal property, (ii) storage, transportation, and disposition of the same,
and (iii) repair and restoration of the Premises, together with interest
thereon
at the Interest Rate from the date of expenditure by Landlord.
15. HOLDOVER.
Tenant shall have
no right to holdover possession of the Premises after the expiration or
termination of this Lease without Landlord's prior written consent which
Landlord may withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. If, however, Tenant
retains possession of any part of the Premises after the Term, Tenant shall
become a tenant at sufferance only, for the entire Premises upon all of the
terms of this Lease as might be applicable to such tenancy, except that,
if
Landlord, at Landlord's sole option, permits Tenant to remain in the Premises
as
a month-to-month tenant, such tenancy shall be upon all of the terms of this
Lease, including without limitation, with respect to the payment of Additional
Rent, except that Tenant shall pay (a) for the first ninety (90) days of
such holding over, Base Rent equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%)
of
the Market Rate (as defined in Section 31.3 below) for the Premises (as
reasonably determined by Landlord); and (b) thereafter, Base Rent equal to
one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the of the Market Rate (as defined in
Section 31.3 below), computed on a monthly basis for each full or partial
month
Tenant remains in possession. Tenant shall also protect,
defend,
indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all Claims resulting
from
such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
any
claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender
and
any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom. No acceptance of Rent or
other
payments by Landlord under these holdover provisions shall operate as a waiver
of Landlord's right to regain
possession or
any other of Landlord's remedies.

16. SUBORDINATION
TO
GROUND LEASES AND MORTGAGES.
16.1 Subordination.
Subject to the
provisions of Section 16.5 below, this Lease shall be subordinate to any
present
or future ground lease or mortgage (each a "Superior
Interest")
respecting the
Project, and any amendments to such ground lease or mortgage, at the election
of
the ground lessor or mortgagee (a "Security
Holder"),
as the case may
be, effected by notice to Tenant in the manner provided in this Lease. The
subordination shall be effective upon such notice, but at the request of
Landlord or such Security Holder, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after
the
request, execute and deliver to the requesting party any reasonable documents
provided to evidence the subordination. Any mortgagee has the right, at its
sole
option, to subordinate its mortgage to the terms of this Lease, without notice
to, nor the consent of, Tenant.
16.2 Termination
of
Ground Lease or Foreclosure of Mortgage.
If any ground
lease is terminated or mortgage foreclosed or deed in lieu of foreclosure
given
and the Security Holder or purchaser at a foreclosure sale shall thereby
become
the owner of the Project, Tenant shall attorn to such Security Holder or
purchaser without any deduction or setoff by Tenant, and this Lease shall
continue in effect as a direct lease between Tenant and such Security Holder
or
purchaser. The Security Holder or purchaser shall be liable as Landlord only
during the time such Security Holder or purchaser is the owner of the Project.
At the request of Landlord or any Security Holder, Tenant shall execute and
deliver within ten (10) days after the request any document furnished by
the
requesting party to evidence Tenant's agreement to attorn.
16.3 Security
Deposit.
Any Security
Holder shall be responsible for the return of any security deposit by Tenant
only to the extent the security deposit, if any, is received by such Security
Holder.
16.4 Notice
and Right
to Cure.
Tenant agrees to
send by registered or certified mail to any Security Holder identified in
a
notice from Landlord to Tenant, a copy of any notice of default sent by Tenant
to Landlord. If Landlord fails to cure such default within the required time
period under this Lease, but any Security Holder begins to cure within ten
(10)
days after such period and proceeds diligently to complete such cure, then
such
Security Holder shall have such additional time as is necessary to complete
such
cure, including any time necessary to obtain possession if possession is
necessary to cure, and Tenant shall not begin to enforce its remedies so
long as
the cure is being diligently pursued.
16.5 Non-Disturbance
Agreement.
With respect to
any Superior Interest to which this Lease is now or shall hereafter become
subordinate, Landlord shall obtain from the Security Holder, for the benefit
of
Tenant, a non-disturbance agreement, in the customary form of such Security
Holder, providing generally that as long as Tenant is not in default under
this
Lease, this Lease will not be terminated if such Security Holder acquires
title
to the Buildings or Project by reason of foreclosure proceedings, acceptance
of
a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or termination of the leasehold interest of
Landlord, provided that Tenant attorns to such Security Holder in accordance
with its requirements.
16.6 Definitions.
As used in this
Section 16, "mortgage" shall include "trust deed" and "deed of trust";
"mortgagee" shall include "trustee", "beneficiary" and the mortgagee of any
ground lessee; and "ground lessor", "mortgagee", and "purchaser at a foreclosure
sale" shall
include, in each case, all of its successors and assigns, however
remote.

17. ASSIGNMENT
AND
SUBLEASE.
17.1 In
General.
Subject to the
provisions of Section 17.5 below, Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed), in each case: (a) make or allow any assignment or transfer,
by
operation of law or otherwise, of any part of Tenant's interest in this Lease,
(b) sublet any part of the Premises, or (c) permit anyone other than Tenant
and
its employees to occupy any part of the Premises (all of the foregoing are
hereinafter sometimes referred to individually as a "Transfer",
and collectively
as "Transfers",
any person to
whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred
to as a "Transferee",
and any person by
whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred
to as a "Transferor").
Tenant shall
remain primarily liable for all of its obligations under this Lease,
notwithstanding any Transfer. No consent granted by Landlord shall be deemed
to
be a consent to any subsequent Transfer. Tenant shall pay all of Landlord's
actual attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any
consent requested by Tenant or in considering any proposed Transfer, up to
a
maximum amount of Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) per proposed
Transfer (unless there is a dispute in connection with the proposed Transfer,
in
which event the provisions of Section 25.26 below shall apply). Subject to
the
provisions of Section 17.5 below, any Transfer without Landlord's prior written
consent shall be void. If Tenant shall assign this Lease or sublet or otherwise
Transfer the entire Premises to any party other than a Permitted Transferee
(as
defined below), any rights of Tenant to renew this Lease, to extend the Term
or
to lease additional space in the Project shall be extinguished thereby and
will
not be transferred to the Transferee, all such rights being personal to the
Tenant named herein. In addition, Tenant shall not, without Landlord's prior
written consent, which Landlord may withhold in its sole discretion, mortgage,
pledge or encumber this Lease, the term or estate hereby granted or any interest
hereunder.
17.2 Landlord's
Consent.
Landlord will not
unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed Transfer. It shall be
reasonable for Landlord to withhold its consent to any Transfer if (a) an
Event
of Default exists under this Lease, (b) the proposed Transferee is a tenant
in the Project, an affiliate of such a tenant, or is negotiating with Landlord
or has negotiated with Landlord during the six (6) month period immediately
preceding Tenant’s request for consent to lease space in the Project or in
another project owned by Landlord in the vicinity of the Project, (c) the
financial responsibility, nature of business, and character of the proposed
Transferee are not all reasonably satisfactory to Landlord, (d) in the
reasonable judgment of Landlord the purpose for which the Transferee intends
to
use the Premises (or a portion thereof) is not in keeping with Landlord's
standards for the Project or are in violation of the terms of this Lease
or any
other leases in the Project, (e) the proposed Transferee is a government
entity,
or (f) the proposed effective rent under the sublease or other Transfer is
less than eighty percent (80%) of the effective rent then being quoted by
Landlord for comparable space in the Project for a comparable term, calculated
using a present value analysis; provided, however, that if no comparable
space
in the Project is available for lease for a comparable term at the time of
the
proposed Transfer, then the foregoing restriction on the proposed effective
rent
under the sublease or other Transfer shall be inapplicable. The foregoing
shall
not exclude any other
reasonable
basis for Landlord to withhold its consent.
Page
34
17.3 Procedure.
(a) Tenant
shall notify
Landlord of any proposed Transfer at least thirty (30) days prior to its
proposed effective date. The notice (the “Transfer
Notice”)
shall include the
name and address of the proposed Transferee, its corporate affiliates in
the
case of a corporation and its partners in the case of a partnership, a
description of the portion of the Premises that is subject to the Transfer
(the
"Transfer
Premises"),
a calculation of
the Transfer Premium (as defined in Section 17.5 below) payable in connection
with the Transfer, an executed copy of the proposed Transfer agreement, and
sufficient information to permit Landlord to determine the financial
responsibility and character of the proposed Transferee (including, without
limitation, the most recent financial statements for the proposed Transferee).
Landlord shall approve or disapprove of the proposed Transfer within fifteen
(15) days (the “Review
Period”)
after Landlord’s
receipt of the applicable Transfer Notice. If Landlord fails to notify Tenant
in
writing of such approval or disapproval within such Review Period, Landlord
shall be deemed to have disapproved such Transfer; provided, however, that
if,
within five (5) business days after the Review Period, Tenant furnishes Landlord
with a second Transfer Notice (the "Second
Transfer
Notice"),
which specifies
that "Landlord's failure to respond to this Transfer Notice shall constitute
Landlord's approval of the proposed Transfer", then Landlord's failure to
approve or disapprove the proposed Transfer within ten (10) days after receipt
of the Second Transfer Notice shall constitute Landlord's approval of the
Transfer.
(b) As
a condition to
the effectiveness of any assignment of this Lease, the assignee shall execute
and deliver to Landlord, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the effective
date
of the assignment, Landlord's standard form of Consent to Assignment, providing
for, among other things, an assumption of all of the obligations of Tenant
under
this Lease. As a condition to the effectiveness of any other Transfer,
Transferee shall execute and deliver to Landlord, at least fifteen (15) days
prior to the effective date of such Transfer, Landlord's standard consent
form,
providing, among other things, (i) the Transferee's obligation to indemnify
Landlord and the other Landlord Parties consistent with Tenant's indemnification
obligations in Section 8.2 above, and (ii) the Transferee's agreement that
any
such Transfer shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this
Lease,
and if this Lease shall be terminated during the term of any such Transfer,
Landlord shall have the right to: (1) treat such Transfer as cancelled and
repossess the Transfer Premises by any lawful means, or (2) require that
the Transferee attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under any
such
Transfer. If Tenant shall default and fail to cure within the time permitted
for
cure under Section 12 above, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as
Tenant's agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all
payments under or in connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which
Landlord shall apply towards Tenant's obligations under this Lease) until
such
default is cured.
17.4 Change
of
Management or Ownership.
Any transfer of
the direct or indirect power to affect the management or policies of Tenant
or
direct or indirect change in 50% or more of the ownership interest in Tenant
shall constitute an assignment of this Lease.
17.5 Permitted
Transfers.
Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 17.1 above, if Tenant is not then in default of
this
Lease, Tenant may assign this Lease or sublet any portion of the Premises
(hereinafter collectively referred to as a "Permitted
Transfer")
to (a) a parent
or subsidiary of Tenant, or an entity under common control with Tenant, (b)
any
Page
35
successor
entity to
Tenant by way of merger, consolidation or other non-bankruptcy corporate
reorganization, or (c) an entity which acquires all or substantially all
of
Tenant's assets (collectively, "Permitted
Transferees",
and,
individually, a "Permitted
Transferee");
provided that
(i) at least ten (10) business days prior to the Transfer, Tenant notifies
Landlord of such Transfer, and supplies Landlord with any documents or
information reasonably requested by Landlord regarding such Transfer or
Permitted Transferee, including, but not limited to, copies of the sublease
or
instrument of assignment and copies of documents establishing to the reasonable
satisfaction of Landlord that the transaction in question is one permitted
under
this Section 17.5, (ii) at least ten (10) business days prior to the Transfer,
Tenant furnishes Landlord with a written document executed by the proposed
Permitted Transferee in which, in the case of an assignment, such entity
assumes
all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease with respect to the Transfer
Premises, and, in the case of a sublease, such entity agrees to sublease
the
Transfer Premises subject to this Lease, (iii) in the case of a Transfer
pursuant to clause (b) above, the successor entity must have a net worth
(computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, except
that intangible assets such as goodwill, patents, copyrights, and trademarks
shall be excluded in the calculation ("Net
Worth"))
at the time of
the Transfer that is at least equal to the Net Worth of Tenant immediately
prior
to such Transfer, and (iv) any such proposed Transfer is made for a good
faith
operating business purpose and not, whether in a single transaction or in
a
series of transactions, be entered into as a subterfuge to evade the obligations
and restrictions relating to Transfers set forth in this
Section 17.
17.6 Transfer
Premium.
(a) If
Landlord consents
to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is
reasonable, Landlord shall be entitled to receive, as Additional Rent hereunder,
seventy-five percent (75%) of any Transfer Premium derived from such Transfer.
As
used
herein, the term "Transfer
Premium"
means (i)(A) in
the case of an
assignment, any consideration (including, without limitation, payment for
leasehold improvements) paid by the assignee on account of such assignment,
and
(B) in the case of any other Transfer, all rent, additional rent or other
consideration paid by the Transferee to the Transferor pursuant to such Transfer
in excess of the base rent and additional rent payable by such Transferor
during
the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis, minus (ii)
(AA)
any brokerage commissions (not to exceed commissions typically paid in the
market at the time of such subletting or assignment) and reasonable attorneys'
fees paid by Transferor in connection with the Transfer and (BB) the reasonable
cost of Alterations
made
to
the Transfer Premises at Tenant's cost to effect the Transfer (not to exceed
Five Dollars ($5.00) per rentable square foot of the Transfer Premises)
(collectively, "Recoverable
Expenses"),
unless the
deduction of such Recoverable Expenses is waived by Transferor pursuant to
Section 17.5(b) below. For purposes of calculating the Transfer Premium in
connection with a sublease, the Recoverable Expenses shall be deducted, on
an
amortized basis, without interest, over the term of the sublease. Payment
of
the
portion
of the Transfer
Premium due
Landlord hereunder shall be a joint and several obligation of Tenant and
the
Transferee, and shall be made to Landlord as follows: (1) in
the case
of an assignment, the Transferor shall pay the
portion
of the
Transfer
Premium
due to
Landlord
within ten
(10) days after the
Transferor
receives the consideration described in clause (i)(A)
above;
and
(2) in
the case of any
other Transfer, on
the first day of
each month during the term of the Transfer, the Transferee shall pay directly
to
Landlord seventy-five percent (75%) of the
amount by which
the rent, additional rent or other consideration due from the Transferee
for
such month exceeds (x) the base rent and additional
Page
36
rent
payable by the
applicable Transferor for said month which is allocable to the Transfer
Premises, plus (y) the amortized amount of Recoverable Expenses allocated
to such month, unless such Recoverable Expenses are waived by Transferor
pursuant to Section 17.5(b).
(b) Within
sixty (60)
days after the effective date of any Transfer, Transferor shall provide Landlord
a written statement, together with reasonably detailed invoices therefor,
certifying the total amount of Recoverable Expenses in connection with any
Transfer and Tenant's calculation of the Transfer Premium. If Transferor
fails
to provide such statement and invoices to Landlord within the sixty (60)
day
period, Transferor shall be deemed to have waived the deduction of Recoverable
Expenses in determining the Transfer Premium. Landlord or its authorized
representatives shall have the right, upon at least seventy-two (72) hours'
prior notice, during normal business hours, to audit the books, records and
papers of Tenant, and any other Transferor, relating to a Transfer, and shall
have the right to make copies thereof. If the Transfer Premium respecting
any
Transfer shall be found to be understated, Tenant shall, within ten (10)
days
after demand, pay the deficiency; and, if understated by more than seven
percent
(7%), Tenant shall pay Landlord's costs of such audit.
17.7 Recapture.
In the case of a
proposed assignment of this Lease or the sublease or other Transfer of one
hundred percent (100%) of either Building A or Building B to any party other
than a Permitted Transferee, Landlord may terminate this Lease as to the
Transfer Premises by giving Tenant written notice (the "Recapture
Notice")
within thirty
(30) days after Landlord's receipt of the proposed fully executed Transfer
agreement submitted by Tenant for Landlord's consent. Such termination shall
be
effective as of the termination date set forth in Landlord's Recapture Notice,
and all obligations of Landlord and Tenant under this Lease as to such
terminated space shall expire as of such termination date, except those that
expressly survive any termination of this Lease. In the event of a recapture
by
Landlord, if this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire
Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the
number
of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of
rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended
shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either
party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same.
17.8 Tenant
Remedies.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant claims that Landlord has
unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under this Section 17 or otherwise
has breached or acted unreasonably under this Section 17, Tenant's sole remedies
shall be declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought or
monetary damages, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including,
without limitation, any right provided under California Civil Code Section
1995.310 or other applicable laws to terminate this Lease;
provided, however,
nothing contained in this Section 17.8 is intended to limit Tenant's rights
and
remedies in the event Landlord is adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction
to have acted in bad faith in withholding or delaying its consent to a proposed
Transfer.
18. CONVEYANCE
BY
LANDLORD.
If Landlord shall
at any time transfer its interest in the Project or this Lease, Landlord
shall
be released from any obligations occurring after such transfer, except the
obligation to return to Tenant any security deposit not delivered to its
transferee, and Tenant shall look solely to Landlord's successors for
performance of such obligations. This Lease shall not be affected by any
such
transfer.

19. ESTOPPEL
CERTIFICATE.
Each party shall,
within ten (10) days after receiving a request from the other party, execute,
acknowledge in recordable form, and deliver to the other party or its designee
a
certificate stating, subject to a specific statement of any applicable
exceptions, that this Lease as amended to date is in full force and effect,
that
Tenant is paying Rent and other charges on a current basis, and that to the
best
of the knowledge of the certifying party, the other party has committed no
uncured defaults and has no offsets or claims. The certifying party may also
be
required to state the date of commencement of payment of Rent, the Commencement
Date, the Termination Date, the Base Rent, the current Operating Cost Share
Rent
and Tax Share Rent estimates, the status of any improvements required to
be
completed by Landlord, the amount of any security deposit, and such other
matters as may be reasonably requested. A party's failure to deliver a
certificate within the ten (10) day period set forth above shall not constitute
a breach under this Lease unless such party fails to deliver such certificate
within an additional ten (10) days after the delivery of a notice to such
party
by the other party. Tenant's failure to execute or deliver an estoppel
certificate within the second ten (10) day period shall constitute an
acknowledgment by Tenant that the statements included in the estoppel
certificate are true and correct, without exception. Either party's failure
to
execute or deliver an estoppel certificate or other document or instrument
required under this Section 19 within the second ten (10) day period shall
be a
material breach of this Lease.

equal to the greater of five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment or
$250.
In addition, interest shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on any late payments
of Rent from the date due until paid at the rate provided in Section 2.4(b).
Such late charge and interest shall constitute Additional Rent due and payable
by Tenant to Landlord upon the date of payment of the delinquent payment
referenced above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 25.24 to
the
contrary, no late charge shall be assessed the first time during any Lease
Year

accountant, including a balance sheet and profit and loss statement for the
most
recent prior year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, as long as Tenant's financial statements are readily available
over
the Internet or otherwise publicly available, Tenant shall not be obligated
to
deliver them to Landlord hereunder.
25.26 Attorneys'
Fees.
In any
arbitration, quasi-judicial or administrative proceedings or any action in
any
court of competent jurisdiction, brought by either party to enforce any covenant
or any of such party's rights or remedies under this Lease, including any
action
for declaratory relief, or any action to collect any payments required under
this Lease or
Page
42
to
quiet title
against the other party, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable
attorneys' fees and all costs, expenses and disbursements in connection with
such action, including the costs of reasonable investigation, preparation
and
professional or expert consultation, which sums may be included in any judgment
or decree entered in such action in favor of the prevailing party. In addition,
Tenant shall pay the attorneys' fees and other costs Landlord incurs in
enforcing this Lease where an action or proceeding is not brought.
25.27 Other
Improvements.
If portions of the
Project or property adjacent to the Project (collectively, the "Other
Improvements")
are owned by an
entity other than Landlord, then, so long as Tenant's rights under this Lease
(including, without limitation, Tenant's use and occupancy of, and access
to,
the Premises, parking areas, and/or Project) are not materially impaired,
impeded, or otherwise materially and adversely affected, or Tenant's costs
or
expenses payable under this Lease materially increased, Landlord may, at
its
option, enter into an agreement with the owner or owners of any of the Other
Improvements to provide (a) for reciprocal rights of access, use and/or
enjoyment of the Project and the Other Improvements, (b) for the common
management, operation, maintenance, improvement and/or repair of all or any
portion of the Project and all or any portion of the Other Improvements,
(c) for
the allocation of a portion of Operating Costs and Taxes to the Other
Improvements and the allocation of a portion of the operating expenses and
taxes
for the Other Improvements to the Project, (d) for the use or improvement
of the
Other Improvements and/or the Project in connection with the improvement,
construction, and/or excavation of the Other Improvements and/or the Project,
and (e) for any other matter which Landlord deems appropriate or necessary.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to limit or otherwise
affect Landlord's right to sell all or any portion of the Project or any
other
of Landlord's rights described in this Lease.
25.28 Security.
Landlord shall be
the sole determinant of the type and amount of security services to be provided
to the Project, if any. In all events, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant,
and Tenant hereby waives any claim against Landlord, for (a) any unauthorized
or
criminal entry of third parties into the Premises or the Project, (b) any
damage
to persons, or (c) any loss of property in and about the Premises or the
Project, by or from any unauthorized or criminal acts of third parties,
regardless of any action, inaction, failure, breakdown, malfunction and/or
insufficiency of the security services provided by Landlord.
26. UNRELATED
BUSINESS INCOME.
If Landlord is
advised by its counsel at any time that any part of the payments by Tenant
to
Landlord under this Lease may be characterized as unrelated business income
under the United States Internal Revenue Code and its regulations, then Tenant
shall enter into any amendment proposed by Landlord to avoid such income,
so
long as the amendment does not require Tenant to make more payments or accept
fewer services from Landlord, than this Lease provides.
27. PROJECT
RENOVATIONS.
It is specifically
understood and agreed that Landlord has made no representation or warranty
to
Tenant and has no obligation and has made no promises to alter, remodel,
improve, renovate, repair or decorate the Premises or any part thereof and
that
no representations respecting the condition of the Premises have been made
by
Landlord to Tenant except as specifically set forth herein. However, Tenant
hereby acknowledges that Landlord may during the Lease Term renovate, improve,
alter, or modify (collectively, the "Renovations")
the Project,
including without limitation the parking and common areas, and related systems
and equipment, which Renovations may include, without limitation, modifying
the
common areas to comply with Governmental Requirements, including regulations
relating to the physically disabled, seismic conditions, and building safety
and
security; and in
Page
43
connection
with any
Renovations, Landlord may, among other things, erect scaffolding or other
necessary structures in the Project, limit or eliminate access to portions
of
the Project, including portions of the common areas, or perform work in the
Project, which work may create noise, dust or leave debris in the Project.
Tenant hereby agrees that such Renovations and Landlord's actions in connection
with such Renovations shall in no way constitute a constructive eviction
of
Tenant nor entitle Tenant to any abatement of Rent. Landlord shall have no
responsibility or for any reason be liable to Tenant for any direct or indirect
injury to or interference with Tenant's business arising from the Renovations,
nor shall Tenant be entitled to any compensation or damages from Landlord
for
loss of the use of the whole or any part of the Premises or of Tenant's personal
property or improvements resulting from the Renovations or Landlord's actions
in
connection with such Renovations, or for any inconvenience or annoyance
occasioned by such Renovations or Landlord's actions. Notwithstanding any
provisions to the contrary contained herein, Landlord shall use commercially
reasonable efforts in the performance of any Renovations to minimize
interference with the conduct of Tenant's business in the Premises and Tenant's
parking rights hereunder; and, with respect to any Renovations which could
interfere with the conduct of Tenant's business in the Premises or Tenant's
parking rights hereunder, Landlord shall, except in the event of an emergency,
provide Tenant with at least twenty-four (24) hours' prior notice (which
may be
verbal and/or be sent by e-mail to Tenant's facilities manager).
28. HAZARDOUS
SUBSTANCES.
28.1 Prohibition
Against Hazardous Substances.
(a) Except
for de
minimis quantities of general office supplies customarily used by office
tenants
in the ordinary course of their business, such as copier toner, liquid paper,
glue, ink and cleaning solvents (which supplies Tenant agrees to use in
compliance with all applicable Governmental Requirements), Tenant shall not
cause or permit any Hazardous Substances to be brought upon, produced, stored,
used, discharged or disposed of in or near the Project without Landlord's
prior
written consent, which Landlord may give or withhold in its sole discretion.
Any
handling, transportation, storage, treatment, disposal or use of any Hazardous
Substances in or about the Project by Tenant, its agents, employees, contractors
or invitees shall strictly comply with all applicable Governmental Requirements.
Tenant shall be solely responsible for obtaining and complying with all permits
necessary for the maintenance and operation of its business, including, without
limitation, all permits governing the use, handling, storage, treatment,
transport, discharge and disposal of Hazardous Substances. Tenant shall
indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from and against any Claims
(including, without limitation, diminution in value of the Premises or the
Project, damages for the loss or restriction on use of leasable space or
of any
amenity of the Premises or the Project, damages arising from any adverse
impact
on marketing of space in the Project, Remedial Work, and sums paid in settlement
of claims) which result from or arise out of the use, storage, treatment,
transportation, release, or disposal of any Hazardous Substances on or about
the
Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties.
(b) Landlord
shall have
the right, at any time, but not more than once per calendar year (unless
Landlord has reasonable cause to believe that Tenant has failed to fully
comply
with the provisions of this Section 28, or unless required by any lender
or
governmental agency), to inspect the Premises and conduct tests and
investigations to determine whether Tenant is in compliance with the provisions
of this Section 28. The reasonable costs of all such inspections, tests and
investigations shall be borne solely by
Page
44
Tenant.
The
foregoing rights granted to Landlord shall not, however, create (i) a duty
on
Landlord's part to inspect, test, investigate, monitor or otherwise observe
the
Premises or the activities of Tenant or any Tenant Party with respect to
Hazardous Substances, including, but not limited to, Tenant's operation,
use or
remediation thereof, or (ii) liability on the part of Landlord or any Landlord
Party for Tenant's use, storage, treatment, transportation, release, or disposal
of any Hazardous Substances, it being understood that Tenant shall be solely
responsible for all liability in connection therewith.
28.2 Landlord
Notification.
Tenant shall
promptly provide Landlord with complete copies of all documents, correspondence
and other written materials directed to or from, or relating to, Tenant
concerning environmental issues at the Premises or the Project, including,
without limitation, documents relating to the release, potential release,
investigation, compliance, cleanup and abatement of Hazardous Substances,
and
any claims, causes of action or other legal documents related to same. Within
twenty-four (24) hours of any unauthorized release, spill or discharge of
Hazardous Substances, in, on, or about the Premises or Project, Tenant shall
provide written notice to Landlord fully describing the event. Tenant shall
also
provide Landlord with a copy of any document or correspondence submitted
by or
on behalf of Tenant to any regulatory agency as a result of or in connection
with the unauthorized release, spill or discharge. Within twenty-four (24)
hours
of receipt by Tenant of any warning, notice of violation, permit suspension
or
similar disciplinary measure relating to Tenant's actual or alleged failure
to
comply with any environmental law, rule, regulation, ordinance or permit,
Tenant
shall provide written notice to Landlord.
28.3 Remedial
Work.
If any Remedial
Work is required under any Governmental Requirements as a result of the use,
storage, treatment, transportation, release, or disposal of any Hazardous
Substances on or about the Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, then
Tenant
shall perform or cause to be performed the Remedial Work in compliance with
Governmental Requirements or, at Landlord's option, Landlord may cause such
Remedial Work to be performed and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the
reasonable costs thereof within thirty (30) days after demand therefor. All
Remedial Work performed by Tenant shall be performed by one or more contractors,
selected by Tenant and reasonably approved in advance in writing by Landlord,
and under the supervision of a consulting engineer selected by Tenant and
reasonably approved in advance in writing by Landlord. All costs and expenses
of
such Remedial Work shall be paid by Tenant, including, without limitation,
the
charges of such contractor(s), the consulting engineer and Landlord's reasonable
attorneys' and experts' fees and costs incurred in connection with monitoring
or
review of such Remedial Work.
28.4 Environmental
Questionnaire.
Prior to execution
of this Lease, Tenant shall complete, execute and deliver to Landlord an
Environmental Questionnaire and Disclosure Statement. The completed
Environmental Questionnaire shall be deemed incorporated into this Lease
for all
purposes, and Landlord shall be entitled to rely fully on the information
contained therein. Tenant shall immediately update and resubmit to Landlord
the
Environmental Questionnaire if changes occur in the nature, content, handling,
storage, use, treatment, transport, discharge, or disposal of the Hazardous
Substances described therein. Attached hereto as Exhibit E
is a form of
Environmental Questionnaire to be executed in accordance with the foregoing
provision.
28.5 Survival.
Tenant's
obligations under this Section 28 shall survive the expiration or earlier
termination of this Lease until all Claims within the scope of this Section
28
are fully, finally, and absolutely barred by the applicable statutes of
limitations. If it is
Page
45
determined
by
Landlord that the condition of all or any portion of the Premises or the
Project
is not in compliance with the provisions of this Section 28, including, but
not
limited to all applicable Governmental Requirements relating to Hazardous
Substances, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, then
Landlord, in its sole discretion, may require Tenant to hold over possession
of
the Premises until Tenant can surrender the Premises to Landlord in the
condition required under Section 14 above and in full compliance with the
provisions of this Section 28. The burden of proof under this Section 28.5
shall be upon Tenant. For purposes of Section 14, the term "normal wear and
tear" shall not include any deterioration in the condition or diminution
of the
value of any portion of the Premises or the Project in any manner whatsoever
related directly or indirectly to Hazardous Substances. Any such holdover
by
Tenant shall be with Landlord's consent, will not be terminable by Tenant
in any
event or circumstance and will otherwise be subject to Section 15
above.
28.6 Prior
Contamination.
Tenant hereby
acknowledges that Landlord has informed Tenant that certain chlorinated volatile
organic compounds may be present in the groundwater under the Project as
of the
date of this Lease (the “Prior
Contamination”).
Tenant hereby
covenants for the benefit of Landlord that it will not use or store any
chlorinated volatile organic compounds on the Premises or within the Project.
Tenant agrees and acknowledges that: (a) except as expressly provided in
this
Lease, neither Landlord nor any of Landlord’s representatives have made any
representations or warranties about the environmental condition of the Project
or the accuracy or completeness of any environmental reports made available
to
Tenant regarding the Land; (ii) Tenant is sophisticated, knowledgeable and
experienced in the analysis of environmental matters and that Tenant has
entered
into this Lease with the intention of making and relying upon its own (or
its
experts') investigation of the environmental condition of the Project; and
(iii)
Tenant is not relying upon any representations or warranties purportedly
made by
Landlord or anyone acting or claiming to act on Landlord’s behalf concerning the
Project.
28.7 Landlord’s
Remedial Work.
(a) In
the event that
any Remedial Work is required by Governmental Requirements to be performed
in
the Project as a result of Hazardous Substances that are regulated by any
local
government authority, the State of California or the United States government
as
of the Commencement Date and that are located in the Project as of the
Commencement Date ("Pre-Existing
Hazardous Substances"),
then, except to
the extent such Remedial Work is required solely by reason of any negligent
or
intentional misconduct by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, Landlord shall perform
or cause to be performed, at no cost to Tenant, the Remedial Work in compliance
with all Governmental Requirements. Landlord's performance of any Remedial
Work
shall not render Landlord liable for damages to either person or property
or for
interruption or loss to Tenant's business, nor be construed as an eviction
of
Tenant, nor work an abatement of any portion of Rent, nor relieve Tenant
from
fulfillment of any covenant or agreement hereof; provided, however, that
if (i)
Tenant is prevented from using all or part of the Premises as a result of
Landlord's Remedial Work (an "Environmental
Interruption"),
(ii) such
Environmental Interruption continues for five (5) consecutive business days
after Landlord's receipt of notice thereof from Tenant, and (iii) the
Remedial Work is not required by reason of the use, storage, treatment,
transportation, release, or disposal of any Hazardous Substances on or about
the
Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties, then Rent payable under this Lease
shall be equitably abated or reduced for such time that Tenant continues
to be
prevented from using all or part of the Premises in the proportion that the
rentable square feet affected by the Environmental Interruption bears to
the
total
Page
46
rentable
square feet
of the Premises. For the avoidance of doubt, Tenant shall not be liable or
responsible for Remedial Work with respect to Pre-Existing Hazardous Substances,
unless and except to the extent exacerbated by the use, storage, treatment,
transportation, release or disposal of any Hazardous Substances on or about
the
Project by Tenant or any Tenant Parties.
(b) Landlord
shall
indemnify and hold Tenant harmless from any Claims to the extent any such
Claim
results from or arises out of the negligent use, storage, treatment,
transportation, release, or disposal of any Hazardous Substances on or about
the
Project by Landlord, its agents, employees, or contractors. Landlord's liability
under the foregoing indemnity (i) is personal to Tenant and may not be assigned
to or relied upon by any third party other than a Permitted Transferee without
Landlord’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and
absolute discretion, (ii) is limited to Tenant’s actual, out of pocket costs
incurred in connection with complying with any order of any applicable state
or
federal agencies relating to the remediation, removal, disposal or monitoring
("Compliance
Order")
of Hazardous
Substances on or about the Project as a result of the negligent use, storage,
treatment, transportation, release, or disposal by Landlord, its agents,
employees or contractors, and to reasonable consultants fees and costs and
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in defending against a proposed
Compliance Order, so long as Landlord may select the attorney to defend Tenant
and have sole authority to make all settlement and other decisions in regard
to
the proceedings, including the decision whether to challenge the Compliance
Order (and any related order or action) by appeal or court challenge, and
(iii)
specifically excludes any claims, costs, damages or losses for personal injury,
property damage, punitive damages, damage to business, lost profits, or
consequential damages incurred by Tenant or any third party.
28.8 Definition
of
"Hazardous Substances".
"Hazardous
Substances"
means any
hazardous or toxic substances, materials or waste which are or become regulated
by any local government authority, the state in which the Project is located
or
the United States government, including those substances described in the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980,
as
amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq.,
the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901 et seq.,
any other
applicable federal, state or local law, and the regulations adopted under
these
laws.
29. EXCULPATION.
Landlord shall
have no personal liability under this Lease; its liability shall be limited
solely
and exclusively to an amount which is equal to the lesser of (a) the
interest of Landlord in the Project or (b) the equity interest Landlord would
have in the Project if the Project were encumbered by third-party debt in
an
amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the value of the Project (as such
value
is determined by an arms' length licensed appraiser reasonably acceptable
to
Landlord and Tenant). In no event shall Landlord's liability extend to any
other
property or assets of Landlord, nor shall
any officer,
director, employee, agent, shareholder, partner, member or beneficiary of
Landlord be personally liable for any of Landlord's obligations hereunder.
Further, in no event shall Landlord be liable under any circumstances for
any
consequential damages or for injury or damage to, or interference with, Tenant's
business, including but not limited to, loss of profits, loss of rents or
other
revenues, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill, or loss of use,
however occurring.
30. COMMUNICATIONS
AND COMPUTER LINES.
Tenant may
install, maintain, replace, remove or use any communications or computer
wires
and cables (collectively, the "Lines")
at the Project in
or serving the Premises, provided that (a) Tenant shall obtain
Page
47
Landlord's
prior
written consent, use an experienced and qualified contractor approved in
writing
by Landlord, and comply with all of the other provisions of this Lease, (b)
an
acceptable number of spare Lines and space for additional Lines shall be
maintained for existing and future occupants of the Project, as determined
in
Landlord's reasonable opinion, (c) the Lines therefor (including riser cables)
shall be appropriately insulated to prevent excessive electromagnetic fields
or
radiation, and shall be surrounded by a protective conduit reasonably acceptable
to Landlord, (d) any new or existing Lines servicing the Premises shall comply
with all Governmental Requirements, and (e) Tenant shall pay all costs in
connection with the foregoing. Landlord reserves the right to require that
Tenant remove any Lines located in or serving the Premises which are installed
in violation of these provisions, or which are at any time in violation of
any
Governmental Requirements or represent a dangerous or potentially dangerous
condition. Tenant shall remove any or all Lines installed by or for Tenant
within or serving the Premises upon expiration or sooner termination of this
Lease. If Tenant fails to remove such Lines as required by Landlord, or violates
any other provision of this Section, Landlord may, after ten (10) days' written
notice to Tenant, remove such Lines or remedy such other violation, at Tenant’s
expense (without limiting Landlord’s other remedies available under this Lease
or Governmental Requirements).
31. OPTION
TO
EXTEND.
31.1 Renewal
Option.
Subject to the
terms and conditions set forth below, Landlord hereby grants to Tenant two
(2)
successive options to extend the Term of this Lease (each, a "Renewal
Option")
for additional
periods of five (5) years each (each, a "Renewal
Term").
The second
Renewal Option may be exercised only if the first Renewal Option has been
duly
exercised. Each Renewal Term shall be upon the same terms, covenants and
conditions of this Lease, including provisions regarding payment of Additional
Rent, which shall remain payable on the terms herein set forth, except that
(a) the Base Rent payable by Tenant during the Renewal Terms shall be as
determined in accordance with Sections 31.3 and 31.4 below, (b) Tenant
shall continue to possess and occupy the Premises in their existing condition,
"as is" as of the commencement of each Renewal Term, and Landlord shall have
no
obligation to repair, remodel, improve or alter the Premises, to perform
any
other construction or other work of improvement upon the Premises, or to
provide
Tenant with any construction or refurbishing allowance whatsoever, and
(c) Tenant shall have no further rights to extend the Term of this Lease
after the expiration of the second Renewal Term.
31.2 Conditions
of
Exercise.
To exercise each
Renewal Option, Tenant must deliver an unconditional binding notice to Landlord
via certified mail or hand delivery not sooner than three hundred sixty-five
(365) days nor later than two hundred forty (240) days prior to the then
current
Termination Date. If Tenant fails to timely give its notice of exercise,
Tenant
will be deemed to have waived the applicable (and any subsequent) Renewal
Option.
31.3 Market
Rate
Calculation.
The Base Rent
payable by Tenant for the Premises during each Renewal Term shall be the
Market
Rate (as defined below) for the Premises, valued as of the commencement of
such
Renewal Term, determined in the manner hereinafter provided. As used herein,
the
term "Market
Rate"
shall
mean the
annual amount of Base Rent that a willing tenant would pay, and that a willing
landlord would accept, at arm's length, for space comparable to the Premises
within the
Project or other
comparable first class office/R&D projects in the vicinity of the
Project
(the "Comparison
Projects"),
based upon
binding lease transactions for tenants in the Comparison Projects that, where
possible, commence or are to commence within six (6) months prior to or within
six (6) months after the
Page
48
commencement
of the
Renewal Term ("Comparison
Leases").
Comparison
Leases shall include renewal and new non-renewal tenancies, but shall exclude
subleases and leases of space subject to another tenant's expansion rights.
Rental rates payable under Comparison Leases shall be adjusted to account
for
variations between this Lease and the Comparison Leases with respect to:
(a)
the
length of the Renewal Term compared to the lease term of the Comparison Leases;
(b) rental
structure,
including, without limitation, rental rates per rentable square foot (including
type, gross or net, and if gross, adjusting for base year or expense stop),
additional rental, escalation provisions, all other payments and escalations;
(c) the
size of the
Premises compared to the size of the premises of the Comparison Leases;
(d) location,
floor
levels and efficiencies of the floor(s) for which the determination is being
made; (e) free
rent, moving
expenses and other cash payments, allowances or other monetary concessions
affecting the rental rate; (f)
the
age and quality
of construction of the Buildings (including compliance with applicable codes
on
the applicable floors); and (g) leasehold
improvements and/or allowances, including the amounts thereof in renewal
leases,
and taking into account, in the
case of renewal
leases (including this Lease), the value of existing leasehold improvements
to
the renewal tenant.
31.4 Base
Rent
Determination.
The Base Rent
payable by Tenant for the Premises during each Renewal Term shall be determined
as follows:
(a) Not
sooner than
three hundred sixty-five (365) days nor later than two hundred seventy (270)
days prior to the then current Termination Date, Tenant may notify Landlord
of
Tenant's interest in exercising a Renewal Option. If Tenant gives Landlord
such
notice, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate in good faith to determine the
Market Rate for the Premises for the applicable Renewal Term. If Landlord
and
Tenant are able to agree on such Market Rate prior to the date that that
is two
hundred forty (240) days prior to the then current Termination Date (the
"Exercise
Deadline"),
then such
agreement shall constitute a determination of the Market Rate for purposes
of
this Section, and the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this
Lease stating the Base Rent for the applicable Renewal Term. If Landlord
and
Tenant are unable to agree on the Market Rate for the applicable Renewal
Term
prior to the Exercise Deadline, Tenant may (i) exercise the applicable Renewal
Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 31.2 above, in which
case
the determination of Market Rate shall be made in accordance with Subsections
31.4(c), (d), and (e) below, or (ii) elect not to exercise the Renewal Option.
(b) If
Tenant does not
notify Landlord of its interest in exercising the applicable Renewal Option
pursuant to Section 31.4(a) above, but provides Landlord with its unconditional
binding notice of exercise pursuant to Section 31.2 above, then, prior to
the
commencement of the applicable Renewal Term, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
a
good faith written proposal of the Market Rate. Within twenty-one (21) days
after receipt of Landlord's proposal, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing
(1) that Tenant accepts Landlord's proposal or (2) that Tenant elects to
submit the determination of Market Rate to arbitration in accordance with
Subsections 31.4(c) through 31.4(d) below. If Tenant does not give Landlord
a
timely notice in response to Landlord's proposal, Landlord's proposal of
Market
Rate shall be binding upon Tenant. If Tenant timely elects to submit the
determination of Market Rate to arbitration, Landlord and Tenant shall first
negotiate in good faith in an attempt to determine the Market Rate. If Landlord
and Tenant are able to agree within thirty (30) days following the delivery
of
Tenant's notice to Landlord electing arbitration (the "Negotiation
Period")
(or if Tenant
accepts Landlord's initial proposal), then such agreement shall constitute
a
determination of Market Rate for purposes
of this
Section, and the parties shall immediately execute an amendment to this Lease
stating the Base Rent for the applicable Renewal Term.
Page
49
(c) If
Tenant exercises
the Renewal Option as described in Section 31.4(a) above, or if Landlord
and
Tenant are unable to agree on the Market Rate within the Negotiating Period
as
described in Section 31.4(b) above, then within fifteen (15) days after Tenant's
exercise or the expiration of the Negotiating Period, as the case may be,
the
parties shall meet and concurrently deliver to each other in envelopes their
respective good faith estimates of the Market Rate (set forth on a net effective
rentable square foot per annum basis). Each party's estimate may be more
or less
than such party's proposals of Market Rate, if any, made under Section 31.4(a)
above. If the higher of the parties' estimates is not more than one hundred
five
percent (105%) of the lower, then the Market Rate shall be the average of
the
two. Otherwise, the dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance
with
Subsections 31.4(d) and 31.4(e) below.
(d) Within
seven (7)
days after the exchange of estimates, the parties shall select as an arbitrator
an independent real estate broker with at least five (5) years of experience
in
leasing commercial office space in the metropolitan area in which the Project
is
located (a "Qualified
Appraiser").
If the parties
cannot agree on a Qualified Appraiser, then within a second period of seven
(7)
days, each shall select a Qualified Appraiser and within ten (10) days
thereafter the two appointed Qualified Appraisers shall select an independent
Qualified Appraiser and the independent Qualified Appraiser shall be the
sole
arbitrator. If one party shall fail to select a Qualified Appraiser within
the
second seven (7) day period, then the Qualified Appraiser chosen by the other
party shall be the sole arbitrator.
(e) Within
twenty-one
(21) days after submission of the matter to the arbitrator, the arbitrator
shall
determine the Market Rate by choosing whichever of the estimates submitted
by
Landlord and Tenant the arbitrator judges to be more accurate. The arbitrator
shall notify Landlord and Tenant of its decision, which shall be final and
binding. If the arbitrator believes that expert advice would materially assist
him, the arbitrator may retain one or more qualified persons to provide expert
advice. The fees of the arbitrator and the expenses of the arbitration
proceeding, including the fees of any expert witnesses retained by the
arbitrator, shall be paid by the party whose estimate is not selected. Each
party shall pay the fees of its respective counsel and the fees of any witness
called by that party.
(f) Until
the matter is
resolved by agreement between the parties or a decision is rendered in any
arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 31, Tenant's monthly payments
of
Base Rent shall be in an amount equal to Landlord's determination of the
Market
Rate. Within ten (10) business days following the resolution of such dispute
by
the parties or the decision of the arbitrator, as applicable, Tenant shall
pay
to Landlord, or Landlord shall pay to Tenant, the amount of any deficiency
or
excess, as the case may be, in the Base Rent theretofore paid.
31.5 General
Requirements.
Tenant's right to
exercise the Renewal Options is personal to, and may be exercised only by,
the
original named Tenant under this Lease and any Permitted Transferee, and
only if
the original named Tenant or any Permitted Transferee continues to occupy
the
entire Premises at the time of such exercise. If Tenant shall assign this
Lease
or sublet one hundred percent (100%) of either Building A or Building B under
a
sublease which is effective at any time during the final twelve (12) months
of
the initial Term, then, unless such assignment or sublease was to a Permitted
Transferee, Tenant's right to exercise the
Page
50
Renewal
Options
shall, immediately upon such assignment or subletting, simultaneously terminate
and be of no further force or effect. No assignee or subtenant other than
a
Permitted Transferee shall have any right to exercise the Renewal Options
granted herein. In addition, if an Event of Default is continuing uncured
under
this Lease at the time it exercises any Renewal Option or at any time thereafter
until the commencement of the applicable Renewal Term or if an Event of Default
has occurred at any time prior to its exercise of a Renewal Option, Landlord
shall have, in addition to all of its other rights and remedies under this
Lease, the right (but not the obligation) to terminate the remaining Renewal
Options and to unilaterally revoke Tenant's exercise of any Renewal Option,
in
which case this Lease shall expire on the then current Termination Date,
unless
earlier terminated pursuant to the terms hereof, and Tenant shall have no
further rights under this Lease to renew or extend the Term.
32. RIGHT
OF FIRST
OFFER.
32.1 First
Offer
Space; Exercise.
Subject to the
conditions set forth in this Section 34, Tenant shall have a right of first
offer to lease the building in the Project located at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx (the
"First
Offer
Space"),
in the event
that the First Offer Space becomes available for lease to third parties during
the Term. Prior to leasing any of the First Offer Space to a third party,
Landlord will give notice to Tenant (an "Offering
Notice")
specifying
Landlord's good faith estimate of (1) the Base Rent which Landlord proposes
to charge for such First Offer Space, (2) the approximate date upon which
such First Offer Space is anticipated to be available for delivery, and
(3) any other material conditions or provisions relating to the leasing of
such First Offer Space which vary from the provisions of this Lease. If Tenant
wishes to lease the First Offer Space on the terms specified by Landlord
in the
Offering Notice, Tenant shall so notify Landlord within ten (10) days after
receipt thereof, which notice shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Tenant
may
exercise its right of first offer only with respect to all of the First Offer
Space identified in the Offering Notice, and only if Tenant intends to occupy
such First Offer Space in connection with its own reasonably foreseeable
needs.
32.2 Terms
and
Conditions.
If Tenant timely
exercises its right to lease the First Offer Space, then except as specified
in
this Section 34 or in the Offering Notice (which shall govern to the extent
of
any conflict with this Lease), the First Offer Space leased by Tenant shall
become part of the Premises on all of the terms and conditions of this Lease
for
the remainder of the Term, provided that (i) the Base Rent for such First
Offer Space shall be determined as specified above, (ii) Tenant's
Proportionate Share shall be adjusted to reflect the addition of such First
Offer Space, and (iii) the First Offer Space shall be delivered in its then
existing "as is" condition, without obligation on the part of Landlord to
make
any repairs or construct any improvements thereto in connection with Tenant's
contemplated use, or to demolish existing improvements therein, except as
set
forth in the Offering Notice, and Tenant shall be responsible for the
construction and installation in accordance with the provisions of Section
5
above of any tenant improvements it desires to install within such First
Offer
Space, at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Except as may be provided to the
contrary in the Offering Notice, Tenant shall commence paying Base Rent and
all
Additional Rent with respect to the First Offer Space leased by Tenant hereunder
on the date of delivery of such First Offer Space to Tenant in the condition
required hereunder. Promptly following Tenant's timely exercise of its right
to
lease any of the First Offer Space, Landlord shall prepare, and Landlord
and
Tenant shall execute, an amendment to this Lease reflecting the addition
of such
First Offer Space. Tenant's right of first offer under this Section 32 shall
be
a one-time right as to any particular First Offer Space. If Tenant fails
to
timely notify Landlord that it wishes to lease any portion of the First Offer
Space identified in an Offering Notice, or if Tenant fails to execute and
deliver
Page
51
said
lease amendment
to Landlord within ten (10) business days following receipt thereof by Tenant,
Landlord may thereafter lease such portion of the First Offer Space to any
person on terms and conditions it may deem appropriate in Landlord's sole
discretion and Tenant shall have no further rights with respect to such portion
of the First Offer Space; provided, however, if Landlord does not lease such
First Offer Space within one hundred eighty (180) days after the expiration
of said five (5) business day period, any further transaction shall be deemed
a
new determination by Landlord to lease such First Offer Space and the provisions
of this paragraph shall again be applicable.
32.3 Conditions
to
Exercise.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, if Tenant is in material default
under this Lease (after any applicable notice and cure period) at the time
an
Offering Notice would otherwise be required to be sent under this Section
32, or
any other time following Tenant's exercise of its right to lease the First
Offer
Space and prior to the date upon which possession of the First Offer Space
is to
be delivered to Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to all of its other
rights and remedies under this Lease, the right (but not the obligation)
to
terminate Tenant's rights under this Section 32, and in such event Landlord
shall not be required to deliver the Offering Notice or to deliver possession
of
the First Offer Space to Tenant. Nothing contained in this Section 32 shall
be
deemed to impose any obligation on Landlord to refrain from negotiating with
the
existing occupant of the First Offer Space, to withhold the First Offer Space
from the market, or to take any other action or omit to take any other action
in
order to make the First Offer Space available to Tenant. The rights of Tenant
pursuant to this Section 32 shall automatically terminate upon the Termination
Date, as extended.
32.4 Rights
Personal
to Tenant.
Tenant's right to
lease the First Offer Space is personal to, and may be exercised only by,
the
original named Tenant under this Lease or a Permitted Transferee. If Tenant
shall assign this Lease or sublet one hundred percent (100%) of either Building
A or Building B under a sublease which is effective at any time during the
final
twelve (12) months of the initial Term, then immediately upon such assignment
or
subletting, Tenant's right to lease the First Offer Space shall simultaneously
terminate and be of no further force or effect. No assignee or subtenant
other
than the Permitted Transferees shall have any right to lease the First Offer
Space hereunder.
33. USE
OF
TRACTORS.
Tenant shall have
the right to use, operate and maintain tractors in the Project to the extent
necessary for the operation of Tenant's business in the Premises, subject
to the
provisions of this Section 33.
33.1 Landlord
has made no
representations or promise as to the suitability or effectiveness of any
part of
the Project for, or as to any Governmental Requirements applicable to, Tenant's
proposed use, operation and maintenance of such tractors.
33.2 Tenant
shall
designate parking spaces for such tractors in the parking area, provided
that
such parking spaces shall be subject to the reasonable approval of Landlord.
Landlord's approval of such parking spaces shall in no event increase the
number
of parking spaces to which Tenant is entitled as set forth in the Schedule.
Landlord reserves the right to require that parking spaces for the tractors
be
relocated to another location as Landlord shall reasonably
designate.
33.3 Tenant,
at its
expense, shall at all times keep the tractors in good order, condition and
repair. With respect to all operations relating to the tractors, Tenant shall
conduct
Page
52
its
business and
control its agents, employees and invitees in such manner as not to create
any
nuisance, or interfere with, annoy or disturb any other licensee or tenant
of
the Project or Landlord in its operation of the Project.
33.4 Any
damage to the
parking areas or any other portion of the Project from Tenant's operation,
use,
or maintenance of tractors, shall be repaired at Tenant's sole cost and expense.
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for any costs and expenses so incurred by
Landlord within thirty (30) days after Landlord's written request therefor.
33.5 Tenant,
at its
expense, shall comply with all Governmental Requirements applicable to the
maintenance, operation, and use of the tractors.
33.6 Tenant,
at its
expense, shall remove or relocate the tractors on a temporary basis upon
notice
from Landlord at any time Landlord determines such removal or relocation
is
reasonably necessary or appropriate for the expeditious repair, replacement,
alteration, improvement or additions to or of the Project, or to access any
area
for Project needs.
33.7 Tenant
assumes full
responsibility for protecting from theft or damage the tractors and any other
tools or equipment that Tenant may use in connection with the operation,
use, or
maintenance thereof, assumes all risk of theft, loss or damage, and waives
any
Claim with respect thereto against Landlord and the other Landlord Parties.
Tenant shall cause the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant
to
Section 8 to cover the tractors and any Claims arising in connection with
the
presence, use, operation, repair, maintenance, or removal thereof. Tenant
hereby
agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord and the other Landlord
Parties, and each of them, harmless from and against any and all Claims arising
from or connected in any way with the tractors or the operations of Tenant
or
any Tenant Parties in connection therewith (except, with respect to any Landlord
Party, to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of
such Landlord Party or otherwise prohibited by Governmental Requirements),
including, without limitation, (i) all foreseeable and unforeseeable
consequential damages, (ii) any violation of Governmental Requirements, and
(iii) any personal injuries or property damage. The foregoing indemnity shall
survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

EXHIBIT
C
TENANT
IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT
This
Tenant
Improvement Agreement is attached to and forms a part of the Lease dated
as of
May 11, 2005 (the "Lease"), by and between CarrAmerica
Realty
Operating Partnership, L.P.,
a Delaware limited
partnership ("Landlord")
and Xxxxxxx
Navigation
Limited,
a California
corporation ("Tenant"),
pertaining to
certain premises located at 000 XxXxxxxx Xxxxx and 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxxxx (collectively, the "Premises").
Except where
clearly inconsistent or inapplicable, the provisions of the Lease are
incorporated into this Tenant Improvement Agreement, and capitalized terms
used
without being defined in this Tenant Improvement Agreement shall have the
meanings given them in the Lease.
The
purpose of this
Tenant Improvement Agreement is to set forth the respective responsibilities
of
Landlord and Tenant with respect to the design and construction of all
alterations, additions and improvements which Tenant may deem necessary or
appropriate to prepare the Premises for occupancy by Tenant under the Lease.
Such alterations, additions and improvements to the Premises are referred
to in
this Tenant Improvement Agreement as the "Tenant
Improvements,"
and the work of
constructing the Tenant Improvements is referred to as the "Tenant
Improvement Work".
Landlord
and Tenant
agree as follows:
1. General.
1.1 Tenant
is solely
responsible for designing the Tenant Improvements and performing the Tenant
Improvement Work (subject to Landlord's rights of review and approval set
forth
in this Tenant Improvement Agreement).
1.2 Landlord's
sole
interest in reviewing and approving the Construction Drawings (as hereinafter
defined) is to protect the Premises and Landlord's interests, and no such
review
or approval by Landlord shall be deemed to create any liability of any kind
on
the part of Landlord, or constitute a representation on the part of Landlord
or
any person consulted by Landlord in connection with such review and approval
that the Space Plans or Final Working Drawings are correct or accurate, or
are
in compliance with any Governmental Requirements.
1.3 Landlord
shall
contribute (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Tenant
Improvement Agreement) the amount specified in Section 4.1 below as the
"Construction Allowance," towards the costs of designing the Tenant Improvements
and performing the Tenant Improvement Work.
1.4 Tenant
shall be
responsible for all costs of designing the Tenant Improvements and performing
the Tenant Improvement Work to the extent such costs exceed the Construction
Allowance.
Page
59
1.5 On
reasonable prior
notice, Landlord will permit Tenant and Tenant's Agents (as defined below)
to
enter the Premises from time to time prior to the Commencement Date as may
be
reasonably necessary or appropriate. Tenant shall indemnify, protect, defend
and
hold Landlord and the other Landlord Parties harmless from and against any
and
all Claims suffered or incurred by Landlord or the other Landlord Parties
arising from such entry.
2. Design
and
Approval of the Tenant Improvements.
2.1 Selection
of
Tenant's Architect; Construction Drawings.
(a) Tenant
shall retain
an architect/space planner ("Tenant's
Architect")
to prepare the
Construction Drawings, and shall retain engineering consultants (the
"Engineers")
to prepare all
plans and engineering working drawings relating to the structural, mechanical,
electrical, plumbing, HVAC, life-safety and sprinkler work, if any, in the
Premises in connection with the Tenant Improvements. Tenant's Architect and
Engineers shall be subject to the written approval of Landlord, which approval
will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that Landlord
hereby approves AP+I Design, Inc. and its subcontractors as Tenant's Architect
and Engineers. The plans and drawings to be prepared by Tenant's Architect
and
the Engineers hereunder shall be known, collectively, as the "Construction
Drawings".
(b) All
Construction
Drawings shall be subject to Landlord's approval, which approval shall not
be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Landlord shall, if available, supply Tenant
with a set of drawings of the Buildings which Tenant may use in connection
with
the preparation of the Construction Drawings, but Tenant agrees that Landlord
shall have no liability for the completeness or accuracy thereof, and Tenant's
Architect shall be responsible for performing all necessary field measurements
and confirming the completeness and accuracy of such drawings.
2.2 Space
Plans.
Prior to drafting
any Construction Drawings, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with Tenant's final
space plans for the Premises ("Space
Plans").
The Space Plans
shall show locations of all proposed improvements, including partitions,
cabinetry, equipment and fixtures, shall identify materials and finishes
by
location, and shall specify the location of any proposed structural floor
penetrations, the location and extent of floor loading in excess of Building
capacity, if any, any special HVAC requirements, the location and description
of
any special plumbing requirements, and any special electrical requirements.
In
addition, the Space Plans shall show telephone and telecommunications
facilities, and computer and electronic data facilities. Landlord shall approve
or disapprove the Space Plans by written notice given to Tenant within ten
(10)
business days after receipt of the Space Plans. Landlord shall not unreasonably
withhold its approval of the Space Plans, provided that, without limiting
the
generality of the foregoing, Landlord shall be entitled to withhold its consent
to the Space Plans if, in Landlord's good faith judgment, any one or more
of the
following situations exist: (a) the proposed Tenant Improvements will adversely
affect the exterior appearance of the Buildings; or (b) the proposed Tenant
Improvements may impair the structural strength of the Buildings, adversely
affect any Building Systems or materially adversely affect the value of the
Buildings; or (c) the specifications for the proposed Tenant Improvements
are not consistent with, or would detract from, the character or image of
the
Project. If Landlord disapproves the Space Plans, Landlord shall return the
Space Plans to Tenant with a statement of Landlord's reasons for disapproval,
or
specifying any required corrections and/or revisions. Landlord shall approve
or
Page
60
disapprove
of any
revisions to the Space Plans by written notice given to Tenant within five
(5)
business days after receipt of such revisions. This procedure shall be repeated
until Landlord approves the Space Plans.
2.3 Final
Working
Drawings.
Following
Landlord's approval of the Space Plans, Tenant shall cause Tenant's Architect
and the Engineers to prepare and submit for Landlord's approval complete
and
detailed construction plans and specifications, including a fully coordinated
set of architectural, structural, mechanical, fire protection, electrical
and
plumbing working drawings for the Tenant Improvement Work, in a form which
is
sufficiently complete to permit subcontractors to bid on the work, obtain
all
required Permits (as hereinafter defined) and commence construction (the
"Final
Working
Drawings").
Tenant shall
furnish Landlord with four (4) copies signed by Tenant of such Final Working
Drawings. Landlord shall approve or disapprove of the Final Working Drawings
by
giving written notice to Tenant within ten (10) business days after receipt
thereof. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of
the
Final Working Drawings, provided that, without limiting the generality of
the
foregoing, Landlord shall be entitled to withhold its consent to the Final
Working Drawings for any of the reasons specified in Section 2.2 above, or
if in
Landlord's good faith judgment, the Final Working Drawings are inconsistent
with, or do not conform to, the Space Plans. If Landlord disapproves the
Final
Working Drawings, Landlord shall return the Final Working Drawings to Tenant
with a statement of Landlord's reasons for disapproval and/or specifying
any
required corrections or revisions. Landlord shall approve or disapprove of
any
such revisions to the Final Working Drawings within five (5) business days
after
receipt of such revisions. This procedure shall be repeated until Landlord
approves the Final Working Drawings (as so approved, the "Approved
Working
Drawings").
3. Construction
of
Tenant Improvements.
3.1 Contracts
with
Tenant's Contractor and Subcontractors.
(a) Tenant
shall retain
a licensed general contractor as the contractor for the construction of the
Tenant Improvements ("Tenant's
Contractor").
Tenant's
Contractor must be experienced in the performance of work comparable to the
work
of the Tenant Improvements in buildings comparable to the Buildings, and
shall
be subject to Landlord's prior approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that Landlord hereby
approves XxXxxxxx Construction as Tenant's Contractor. All subcontractors,
laborers, materialmen and suppliers used by Tenant (such subcontractors,
laborers, materialmen and suppliers, together with Tenant's Contractor, are
collectively referred to herein as "Tenant's
Agents")
must be approved
in writing by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld;
provided, however, that Landlord reserves the right to require that any work
to
be performed on the life-safety, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation,
air-conditioning, fire-protection, telecommunications or other Building Systems
serving the Premises (whether such systems are located within or outside
the
Premises) be performed by subcontractors specified by Landlord.
(b) Tenant
shall furnish
Landlord with true and correct copies of all construction contracts between
or
among Tenant, Tenant's Contractor and all subcontractors relating to the
Tenant
Improvement Work, provided that Landlord's review of such contracts shall
not
relieve Tenant from its obligations under this Tenant Improvement Agreement
nor
shall such review be deemed to constitute Landlord's representation that
such
contracts comply with the requirements of this Tenant Improvement Agreement.
All
such contracts shall expressly
Page
61
provide
that (i) the
work to be performed thereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions
of
this Tenant Improvement Agreement, including, without limitation, that such
work
shall comply with the Tenant Construction Rules and Regulations attached
hereto
as Schedule 1, and (ii) the Tenant Improvement Work (or in the case of a
subcontractor, the portion thereof performed by such subcontractor) shall
be
warranted in writing to Tenant and Landlord to be free from any defects in
workmanship and materials for a period of not less than one (1) year from
the
date of completion of the Tenant Improvement Work. Tenant agrees to give
to
Landlord any assignment or other assurances which may be necessary to permit
Landlord to directly enforce such warranties (such warranties shall include,
without additional charge, the repair of any portion of the Buildings or
common
areas of the Project which may be damaged as a result of the removal or
replacement of the defective Tenant Improvements). Tenant shall cause Tenant's
Agents to engage only labor that is harmonious and compatible with other
labor
working in the Project. In the event of any labor disturbance caused by persons
employed by Tenant or Tenant's Contractor, Tenant shall immediately take
all
actions necessary to eliminate such disturbance. If at any time any of Tenant's
Agents interferes with any other occupant of the Project, or hinders or delays
any other work of improvement in the Project, or performs any work which
may or
does impair the quality, integrity or performance of any portion of the Project,
including any Building Systems, Tenant shall cause such subcontractor, laborer,
materialman or supplier to leave the Premises and remove all tools, equipment
and materials immediately upon written notice delivered to Tenant, and, without
limiting Tenant's indemnity obligations set forth in Section 8 of the Lease,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs, expenses, losses or damages
incurred or suffered by Landlord resulting from the acts or omissions of
Tenant's Agents in or about the Buildings.
3.2 Permits.
Following approval
of the Final Working Drawings, Tenant shall obtain all building permits and
other permits, authorizations and approvals which may be required in connection
with, or to satisfy all Governmental Requirements applicable to, the
construction of the Tenant Improvements in accordance with the Approved Working
Drawings (the "Permits").
Tenant shall
provide Landlord with copies of any documents or applications filed by Tenant
to
obtain Permits concurrently with any such filing, but in no event shall Tenant
file any such documents or applications until the Final Working Drawings
have
been approved. Tenant agrees that neither Landlord nor Landlord's consultants
shall be responsible for obtaining any Permits or the certificate of occupancy
for the Premises, and that obtaining the same shall be Tenant's responsibility;
provided, however, that Landlord will cooperate with Tenant in executing
permit
applications and performing other ministerial acts reasonably necessary to
enable Tenant to obtain any such Permits or certificate of occupancy. Any
amendments or revisions to the Approved Working Drawings that may be necessary
to obtain any such Permits, or which may be required by city officials or
inspectors to comply with code rulings or interpretations, shall be prepared
by
Tenant's Architect, at Tenant's expense (provided that to the extent funds
are
available, such expense may be reimbursed from the Construction Allowance),
and
submitted to Landlord for Landlord's review and approval as a Change Order
under
Section 5 below. If Landlord disapproves of such amendments or revisions,
Landlord shall return the same to Tenant with a statement of Landlord's reasons
for disapproval, or specifying any required corrections. This procedure shall
be
repeated until Landlord approves the amendments or revisions and all Permits
have been obtained for the Approved Working Drawings, as so
amended.
3.3 Commencement
of
Work.
At least ten (10)
days prior to the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements,
or
the delivery of any construction materials for the Tenant Improvement Work
to
the Premises, whichever is earlier, Tenant shall
Page
62
submit
to Landlord a
notice specifying the date Tenant will commence construction of the Tenant
Improvements, the estimated date of completion of the Tenant Improvements
and
the construction schedule provided by Tenant's Contractor. In addition, prior
to
the commencement of construction of the Tenant Improvements, or the delivery
of
any construction materials for the Tenant Improvement Work to the Premises,
whichever is earlier, Tenant shall submit to Landlord the following: (a)
all
Permits required to commence construction of the Tenant Improvements; (b)
a copy
of the executed construction contract with Tenant's Contractor, in the form
previously approved by Landlord, together with a detailed breakdown, by trade,
of the final costs to be incurred, or which have theretofore been incurred,
in
connection with the design and construction of the Tenant Improvements, which
costs of construction form a basis for the amount of the construction contract;
and (c) true and correct copies of all policies of insurance, or original
certificates thereof executed by an authorized agent of the insurer or insurers,
together with any endorsements referred to in Section 3.5 below, confirming
to
Landlord's reasonable satisfaction compliance with the insurance requirements
of
this Tenant Improvement Agreement.
3.4 Performance
of
Work.
All work performed
by Tenant's Contractor shall strictly conform to the Approved Working Drawings,
shall comply with all Governmental Requirements (including building codes)
and
all applicable standards of the American Insurance Association and the National
Electrical Code and all building material manufacturer's specifications,
shall
comply with all rules and regulations from time to time adopted by Landlord
to
govern construction in or about the Project, including the Tenant Construction
Rules and Regulations attached hereto as Schedule 1, and shall be performed
in a
good and professional manner and so as not to interfere with the occupancy
of
any other tenant of the Project, the performance of any other work within
the
Project, or with Landlord's maintenance or operation of the Project. At all
times during construction of the Tenant Improvements, Landlord and Landlord's
employees and agents shall have the right to enter the Premises to inspect
the
Tenant Improvement Work, and to require the correction of any faulty work
or any
material deviation from the Approved Working Drawings. Tenant shall not close-up
any Tenant Improvement Work affecting the life safety, telecommunications,
heating, ventilation and air conditioning, plumbing, electrical or other
Building Systems in the Premises until the same have been inspected and approved
by Landlord's agents. No inspection or approval by Landlord of any such work
shall constitute an endorsement thereof or any representation as to the adequacy
thereof for any purpose or the conformance thereof with any Governmental
Requirements, and Tenant shall be fully responsible and liable therefor.
In
addition to the Construction Administration Costs under Section 4.3 below,
Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for the cost of any repairs, corrections
or
restoration which must be made, in Landlord's good faith judgment, to the
Premises if caused by Tenant's Contractor or any other of Tenant's
Agents.
3.5 Insurance.
At all times
during the construction of the Tenant Improvements (and in the case of Products
and Completed Operations Coverage, for 5 years following completion of the
Tenant Improvement Work), in addition to the insurance required to be maintained
by Tenant under the Lease, Tenant shall require all of Tenant's Agents to
maintain (a) Commercial General Liability Insurance with limits of not less
than
$2,000,000 combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage,
including personal injury and death, and Contractor's Protective Liability,
and
Products and Completed Operations Coverage in an amount not less than $500,000
per incident, $1,000,000 in the aggregate; (b) Comprehensive automobile
liability insurance with a policy limit of not less than $1,000,000 each
accident for bodily injury and property damage, providing coverage at least
as
broad as the Insurance Services Office (ISO) Business Auto Coverage form
covering Automobile Liability, code 1 "any
Page
63
auto",
and insuring
against all loss in connection with the ownership, maintenance and operation
of
automotive equipment that is owned, hired or non-owned; (c) Worker's
Compensation with statutory limits and Employer's Liability Insurance with
limits of not less than $100,000 per accident, $500,000 aggregate disease
coverage and $100,000 disease coverage per employee. In addition, Tenant
shall
carry "Builder's All Risk" insurance in an amount approved by Landlord covering
the construction of the Tenant Improvements, including such extended coverage
endorsements as may be reasonably required by Landlord, it being understood
and
agreed that the Tenant Improvements shall be insured by Tenant pursuant to
Section 8 of the Lease immediately upon completion thereof. Tenant's liability
insurance shall be written on an "occurrence" basis and shall name Landlord,
the
holder of any Superior Interests and Landlord's designated agents as additional
insureds (by endorsement reasonably acceptable to Landlord). The "Builder's
All
Risk" insurance shall name Landlord and such other parties as Landlord may
specify as the loss payee(s) with respect to all proceeds received therefrom.
All of the insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall provide
that it is primary insurance, and not excess over or contributory with any
other
valid, existing, and applicable insurance in force for or on behalf of Landlord,
shall provide that Landlord shall receive thirty (30) days' written notice
from
the insurer prior to any cancellation or change of coverage, and shall be
placed
with companies which are rated A:VI or better by Best's Insurance Guide and
licensed to business in the State of California. All deductibles and
self-insured retentions under Tenant's policies are subject to Landlord's
reasonable approval, and all insurance, except Workers' Compensation, maintained
by Tenant's Agents shall preclude subrogation claims by the insurer against
anyone insured thereunder. Tenant's compliance with the provisions of this
Section shall in no way limit Tenant's liability under any of the other
provisions of the Lease.
3.6 Liens.
Tenant shall keep
the Premises free from any liens arising out of work performed, materials
furnished or obligations incurred by Tenant. Should Tenant fail to remove
any
such lien within five (5) days after notice to do so from Landlord, Landlord
may, in addition to any other remedies, record a bond pursuant to California
Civil Code Section 3143 and all costs and obligations incurred by Landlord
in so
doing shall immediately become due and payable by Tenant to Landlord as
Additional Rent under the Lease. Landlord shall have the right to post and
keep
posted on the Premises any notices that may be required or permitted by
Governmental Requirements, or which Landlord may deem to be proper, for the
protection of Landlord and the Building from such liens. Promptly following
completion of construction, Tenant shall provide Landlord a copy of a final
unconditional lien release from Tenant's Contractor and each of Tenant's
Agents
who performed work or supplied materials for the Tenant Improvements. Upon
completion of construction, Tenant shall promptly record a Notice of Completion
in accordance with California Civil Code Section 3093 and provide a copy
thereof
to Landlord.

lien
rights) to Landlord's satisfaction that the prior progress payment(s) has
been
paid to the respective contractors, suppliers, laborers and others covered
by
Tenant's request for such prior progress payment(s); and (E) all other
information reasonably requested by Landlord.
(c) The
amount retained

other
governmental authorizations and approvals necessary in connection with, and
indicating final approval of, the Tenant Improvement Work, and which may

to
Landlord within thirty (30) days following the date Tenant commences business
operations in the Premises.
4.3 Construction
Administration Costs.
Tenant shall pay

on behalf of Landlord for the review and approval of the Space Plans and
Construction Drawings (collectively, the "Construction
Administration Costs").
Landlord shall

any terms and conditions to the contrary contained in this Lease, if a material
Event of Default has occurred at any time on or before the Commencement Date,
then (a) in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to Landlord
pursuant to the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to withhold disbursement
of
all or any portion of the Construction Allowance and/or Landlord may cause
Tenant's Contractor to cease the construction of the Tenant Improvements,
and
(b) all other obligations of Landlord under the terms and conditions of this
Tenant Improvement Agreement shall be suspended until such time as such Event
of
Default is cured pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Lease.
5. Change

unreasonably withhold its approval of (a) any request by Tenant, or by Tenant's
Contractor with Tenant's approval, to amend or change the Approved Working
Drawings, or (b) any change or amendment to the Approved Working Drawings
that
may be necessary to obtain any Permits, or which may be required by city
officials or inspectors to comply with code rulings or interpretations (any
of
the foregoing, a "Change
Order"),
provided such
Change Order does not diminish the quality of construction of the Tenant
Improvements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, however,
Tenant
acknowledges that it shall not be unreasonable for Landlord to withhold consent
to any Change Order if any of the circumstances listed in clauses 2.2(a)
through
2.2(c) of this Tenant Improvement Agreement apply. No material changes or
modifications to the Approved Working Drawings shall be made unless by written
Change Order signed by Landlord and Tenant. Tenant shall pay all costs

6. Ownership
of
Tenant Improvements.
The Tenant
Improvements shall be deemed, effective upon installation, to be a part of
the
Premises and shall be deemed to be the property of Landlord (subject to Tenant's
right to use and depreciate (to the extent paid for by Tenant) the same during
the Term of the Lease), and shall be surrendered at the expiration or earlier
termination of the Term, unless Landlord shall have conditioned its approval
of
the Final Working Drawings or any Change Order on Tenant's agreement to remove
any items thereof, in which event, prior to the expiration or termination
of the
Term, the specified items shall be removed at Tenant's expense, any damage
caused by such removal shall be repaired, and the Premises shall be restored
to
their condition existing prior to the installation of the items in question,
normal wear and tear excepted. The removal, repair and restoration described
above shall, at Landlord's sole election, be performed either by Tenant or
by
Landlord; and if such work shall be performed by Landlord, Tenant shall pay
to
Landlord, within twenty (20) days following Landlord's demand, the reasonable
cost and expense of such work.
