PROPRIETARY INFORMATION]
2. Term:
2.1 The term of this Sublease (the “Term”) shall commence on April 15, 2000 (the “Commencement Date”) and shall continue for six (6) years and three and one half (3.5) months, , ending on July 31, 2006, unless sooner terminated in accordance herewith.
2.2 In the event that XxXxxx shall not have delivered possession of the Premises to Agility on or before April 30, 2000, Agility may terminate this Sublease by notice (“Agility’s Termination Notice”) delivered to XxXxxx not later than May 5, 2000, and Agility’s Termination Notice shall be effective as of the date of delivery; provided, however, that in the event that Agility shall timely deliver Tenant’s Termination Notice to XxXxxx but XxXxxx shall, on or before May 20, 2000, deliver the Premises to Agility, Tenant’s Termination Notice shall be void and of no force or effect whatever and the Term shall continue as provided in Section 2.1.
2.3 The provisions of Section 2.2 shall
not apply to the demise of the machine shop and clean room as provided in
Section 25 hereof, which shall be delivered to Agility when possible and not
necessarily by the Commencement Date.
3. Base Rent:
3.1 Base rent (“Base Rent”) for the first year of the Term shall be due in the amount of Two Hundred Nineteen Thousand Two Hundred Forty ($219,240.00) Dollars, payable in equal monthly installments of Eighteen Thousand Two Hundred Seventy ($18,270.00) Dollars.
3.2 Base Rent for each subsequent year of the Term shall be the Base Rent for the previous year of the Term, adjusted upward, however, by (a) dividing such amount by the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, Western City Average, All Items (1982-84 = 100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor (“CPI”) for January of the prior calendar year, and (b) multiplying the quotient thereof by the CPI for January of the then-current calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any annual adjustment of Base Rent be less than an increase of two (2%) percent or more than an increase of six (6%) percent over the prior year’s Base Rent.
2
3.3. If the CPI ceases to use “1982-1984 as 100” as the basis of calculation, or if a material change is made in the term or number of items contained in the CPI, or if the CPI is altered, modified, converted or revised in any other material way, then the CPI shall be adjusted to the figure that would have been arrived at had the change in the manner of computing the CPI in effect at the date of this Sublease had not been altered. If the CPI shall no longer be published, then any substitute or successor index publish by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor or any other governmental agency of the United States, and similarly adjusted as provided above, shall be used. If the CPI (or a successor or substitute index similarly adjusted) is not available, a reliable governmental or other reputable publication reasonably selected by XxXxxx and evaluating the information theretofore used in determining the CPI shall be used for escalations of Base Rent.
3.4 Agility shall pay Base Rent to XxXxxx without deduction or setoff of any kind on the first day of each and every month of the Term, in advance, at the above address (or such other place as XxXxxx may designate from time to time). Any Base Rent or additional rentals and all other sums payable by Agility to XxXxxx hereunder not received by XxXxxx within five (5) days after the due date set forth herein shall be subject to a late charge of ten (10%) percent of the amount thereof. In addition, any Base Rent or additional rentals and all other sums payable by Agility to XxXxxx hereunder not received by Xxxxxx within ten (10) days after the due date set forth herein shall be subject to an additional late charge of five (5%) percent of the amount thereof. Agility's failure to pay any such late charge shall constitute a default under this Sublease.
3.5 Agility shall, concurrently with its execution of this Sublease and its delivery to XxXxxx, deliver to XxXxxx the sum of Twenty-Seven Thousand Four Hundred Five ($27,405) Dollars to be applied as Base Rent for the period April 15 through May 31, 2000.
4. Security Deposit: Concurrently with the execution of this Sublease and in addition to the first month’s Base Rent to be paid pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof, Agility shall deliver to XxXxxx the sum of Eighteen Thousand Two Hundred Seventy ($18,270.00) Dollars as security for the performance by Agility of every covenant and condition of this Sublease. Such deposit may be co-mingled with other funds of XxXxxx and shall bear no interest. If Agility shall default with
3
respect to any convenant or condition of this Sublease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, inculding but not limited to the payment of rent, additional rent and any late charges, XxXxxx may apply the whole or any part of such security deposit to the payment of any sum in default or any sum which XxXxxx may be required to spend by reason of Agility’s default. In the case of every such use, application or retention, Agility shall, on demand, reimburse to XxXxxx within ten (10) days the sum so used, applied or retained which shall be added to the security deposit so that the same shall be replenished to its former amount. Should Agility comply with all of the covenants and conditions of this Sublease, the security deposit or any balance thereof that has not been applied shall be returned to Agility at the expriation of the Term. In the event that XxXxxx shall sell assign its interest in this Sublease and transfer the securty deposit to the new owner thereof, XxXxxx shall be absolutely released from any liability for the security deposit.
5. Possession On Commencement Date: XxXxxx shall use due diligence and commercially reasonable efforts to give possession as nearly as possible at the beginning of the Term. It is understood that if XxXxxx shall be unable to give Agility occupancy of the Premises at the time above provided, XxXxxx shall not be liable for damages to the Agility therefor, but during the period Agility shall be unable to occupy the Premises, the Base Rent and additional rents therefor shall be abated and at the option of XxXxxx the Term may be extended to the full original Term recited in Section 2 herein, and the Commencement Date of this Sublease, ending date and option dates (if any) shall be modified in accordance therewith, subject, however, to the ending date of the Prime Lease term. Should Agility occupy the Premises prior to the Commencement Date of the Term, all terms of this Sublease shall then and there go into effect and the rental and any other rental or additonal charges shall commence (and shall be pro rated if necessary) as of the date of such prior occupancy.
6. Use of Premises: Agility warrants and represents to XxXxxx that the Premises shall be used and occupied only for the purpose of general office and research and development purposes only and for no other purpose.

4
as is lawful, reputable and will not create any nuisance or otherwise interfere with, annoy or disturb XxXxxx or other surrounding tenants.

14.1 This Sublease is subject to PAA’s rights concerning consents to subleases of all or any part of the XxXxxx Premises contained in Section 11 of the Prime Lease, and XxXxxx makes no representation or warranty concerning whether or not PAA will consent to this Sublease.

7
transfer of Agility’s stock on a public exchange shall not, by itself, constitute a change of control of Agility.
14.3 In the event that such consent is not obtained on or before February 15, 2000, then Agility may terminate this Sublease by notice to XxXxxx given not later than February 22, 2000.

The Letter of Credit shall serve as additional security for the full and punctual performance by Agility of all of the terms of this Sublease, and shall permit XxXxxx to draw down the full amount or any portion or portions thereof upon presentation of a sight draft therefor accompanied by a statement signed by an officer of XxXxxx stating that (a) Agility is in default under the Sublease (after notice and applicable cure periods, if any) and (b) that the amount being drawn under the Letter of Credit is the amount due on account of Agility’s default. In the event that Agility shall default (beyond any applicable notice and cure periods) in the performance of any of the terms of this Sublease, including without limitation the payment of rent, XxXxxx may draw all or any part of the amount outstanding under the Letter of Credit to the extent required for the payment of any rent or for any sum which XxXxxx may expend or may be required to expend by reason of Agility’s default under any term or terms of this Sublease, including any damages or deficiency from the reletting the premises, whether before or after reentry by XxXxxx ..

In such event, XxXxxx shall hold and utilize such proceeds as a security deposit to insure the full, complete and timely performance of Agility’s obligations hereunder.
15.4 The Letter of Credit (if the same shall then be outstanding) shall be returned to Agility after to expiration of this Sublease and the surrender of the premises to XxXxxx in accordance with Agility’s surrender obligations contained herein.

At Agility’s written request, XxXxxx shall use good faith efforts to cause PAA to perform PAA’s obligations under the Prime Lease, including by requesting PAA’s performance under the Prime Lease and by permitting Agility to commence a lawsuit (entirely at Agility’s expense, and subject to Agility’s complete and unconditional indemnification of XxXxxx against any liability in connection therewith, and further subject to XxXxxx’x satisfactory review, by XxXxxx’x counsel and at Agility’s expense, of all pleadings therein) against PAA.

A transfer of Agility’s stock on a public exchange shall not, by itself, constitute a change of control of Agility and shall not require XxXxxx’x consent.

Demise of Machine Shop and Clean Room: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Premises shall include the existing machine shop and “clean room” (each as shown on Exhibit “C” annexed hereto), effective as of the date of XxXxxx’x notice to Agility stating that XxXxxx has vacated the machine shop and the “clean room”, and the square footage of the Premises shall be increased, in the aggregate, by 8,194 sq. ft. for the machine shop and

2. TERM
2.1 Commencement of Term
(a) The term of the Lease shall be as shown in Item 6 of the Basic Lease Provisions, commencing on the Commencement Date, which Lessor and Lessee expect to be the Target Commencement date as shown in Item 7 of the Basic Lease Provisions but which may be such other date as herein provided, and ending on the Termination Date unless sooner terminated pursuant to any provision hereof.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Lease and the payment of rent shall commence upon delivery of possession of the Premises. Delivery of possession of the Premises shall occur upon 5 days advance written tender of same by Lessor.
(c) If delivery of possession occurs prior to the Target Commencement Date, the term of this Lease shall commence on such date of delivery of possession, but the Termination Date shall not be advanced.
2.2 Delay in Commencement. Notwithstanding the Target Commencement Date, if for any reason Lessor cannot deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee on or before said date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease or the obligations of Lessee hereunder or extend the term hereof provided, however, that if Lessor shall not have delivered possession of the Premises within seven (7) months after the Target Commencement Date, Lesseee may, at Lessee’s option by notice in writing to Lessor within ten (10) days thereafter, cancel this Lease, in which event the parties shall be discharged from all obligations hereunder.
2.3 Option and Right of Notification. Lessor hereby grants the Lessee the right to renew this Lease for two successive periods of five (5) years, upon the same terms, covenants and conditions as are provided in this Lease.
Lessee shall give notice to Lessor in writing of Lessee’s election to exercise such option no less than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the term. Lessee shall not be entitled to exercise the option if, at the time of such exercise, Lessee is in default of any provision of this Lease.
The annual rent for the first year of the option period, including the commencement thereof, shall be adjusted as of the commencement of said period, and as of the expiration of each full or partial calendar year of the option term (the “Adjustment Date”) to reflect any change in the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index, Subgroup “All Items”, entitled “Consumer Price Index, Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (Revised Series), L.A.- Anaheim - Riverside Average (1982-84 - 100).” The index for said subgroup applicable for the month of December (or the month preceding the Commencement Date for the first full or partial calendar year of the lease term) preceding each adjustment date shall be considered the “base” and the annual rent following each adjustment date shall be computed by adjusting the annual rent payable for the preceding calendar year thereof by the percentage change in the index as of the adjustment date over the “base”; provided, however, in no event shall the rent payable for any year be less than the rent payable for the preceding period on account of the adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.3, notwithstanding the fact that the index may, as of some adjustment date, be less than the “base”. If as of any adjustment date there shall not exist the Consumer Price Index in the same format as set forth above, the parties shall substitute any official index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
1
or any successor or similar governmental agency as may than be in existence and shall be most nearly equivalent thereto. If the parties shall be unable to agree upon a successor index, the parties shall refer the choice to arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The annual rent adjustment for any year of the option period shall in no event be less than two (2%) percent or greater than six (6%) percent per annum.
3. Rent
3.1 Initial Annual Rent. Lessee shall pay to Lessor as rent for the Premises an Initial Annual Rent in the amount specified in Item 4 of the Basic Lease Provisions in equal monthly installments in the amount specified in Item 5 of the Basic Lease provisions in advance on the first day of each month.
3.1.1 Rental Deposit. Upon lease execution, Lessee shall deposit will Lessor an amount equivalent to first month’s rent, in the sum of $49,212.45.
3.2 Additional Rent. Lessee shall reimburse Lessor, as additional rent, in the manner and at the times provided, for Lessee’s proportionate share of all Building Operating Expenses and Common Area Operating Expenses (as hereinafter defined) incurred by Lessor. Lessee’s proportionate share of such Building Operating Expenses and Common Area Operating Expenses shall be based upon Lessee’s Building Percentage in the case of Building Operating Expenses and upon Lessee’s Common Area Percentage in the case of Common Area Operating Expenses, all as defined herein.
3.3 All Rent due under this Lease shall be payable without deduction, abatement or offset except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this Lease.
3.4 Definitions: For purpose of this Article 3:
(a) Lessee’s Building percentage is a percentage calculated by dividing the Leased Area of the Premises, as shown in Item 2 of the Basic Lease Provisions, by the leasable area of the Building, and is stipulated to be as shown in Item 3 of the Basic Lease Provisions.
(b) Building Operating Expense shall mean the sum of all expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with the operation, repair and maintenance of the Building, including but not limited to heating and air conditioning; all real property taxes (as hereinafter defined) imposed upon or with respect to the Building and related improvements (exclusive of the land underlying all such improvements); all fire and extended coverage, earthquake, loss of rents, vandalism, malicious mischief and other insurance covering the Building (exclusive of public liability insurance) and losses suffered which fall below the insurance deductible; utilities; materials and supplies; salaries, wages and other expenses incurred with respect to the operation, repair and maintenance of the Building; the cost of repainting the Building; security and fire protection, amortization of capital investments for improvements which are designed to reduce operating costs, improve operations or comply with governmental conservation or safety programs over such reasonable period as Lessor shall determine [together with interest at five (5) percentage points above the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco on the unamortized amount] (on any such improvements to update operations or reduce costs, Lessor will, upon request, reasonably justify such improvements to Lessee); and an amount equal to fifteen (15%) of all such expenses to cover Lessor’s administrative and overhead expense. Building Operating Expenses attributable to the utilities and services furnished pursuant to Article 10 shall be apportioned among the tenants of the Building receiving such services (excluding those tenants furnishing or paying for their own utilities and janitorial services) based on the respective leased areas occupied by such tenants.
(c) Lessee’s Common Area Percentage is a percentage figure calculated by the project architect by dividing the Leased Area of the Premises by the average leasable area in all improvements, including the Building and other buildings, shown on Exhibit “B” during such year as is initially stipulated to be as shown in Item 3 of the Basic lease Provisions. Should the Building and/or landscape area become a separate legal lot, or should additional improvements or common area be added or deleted from Exhibit “B,” Lessor may, at its option, calculate Lessee’s Common Area Percentage by comparing the common area attributable to the Premises with the common area on such legal lot or otherwise within Exhibit “B” as so revised.
(d) Common Area Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with the operation and maintenance of driveways, landscaping, walkways, plazas, parking facilities, and perimeter property, including, but not limited to: all real property taxes (as hereinafter defined) imposed upon or with respect to the land included within Exhibit “B”; all public liability insurance covering Exhibit “B”, and losses suffered which fall below the insurance deductible; security and fire protection; salaries, wages and other expenses incurred with respect to maintenance of the common areas, gardening, landscaping, repaving, repainting and trash removal; depreciation of equipment used in such maintenance; amortization of capital investments for improvements which comply with governmental conservation or safety programs over such reasonable period as Lessor shall determine (together with interest at five (5) percentage points above the discount rate of the Federal
2
Reserve Bank of San Francisco on the unamortized amount); and an amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of all such expenses to cover Lessor’s administrative and overhead expense. General overhead and depreciation of improvements shall not be included in the expenses except as specifically set forth in the foregoing. Any governmental surcharge, fee or assessment imposed with respect to the parking facilities within Exhibit “B” shall, to the extent paid by Lessor and not passed on to the users of said parking facilities, be included in Common Area Operating Expenses.
(e) Real Property Taxes shall mean all real and personal property taxes and assessments incurred during any calendar year, including, but not limited to: special and extraordinary assessments, water and sewer rates and charges, occupancy taxes or similar taxes imposed on or with respect to the real or personal property whether or not imposed on or measured by the rent payable by Lessee, and other governmental levies and charges, general and special, ordinary and extraordinary, unforeseen as well as foreseen, of any kind and nature whatsoever relating to the real or personal property, and any gross rental, license or business tax measured by or levied on rent payable or space occupied. If, by law, any property taxes are payable, or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid, in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such property taxes), Lessor may, at Lessor’s option, pay the same and, in such event, any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such property taxes shall be deemed to be Real Property Taxes as defined herein. Real Property Taxes shall also include all expenses reasonably incurred by Lessor in seeking a reduction by the taxing authorities of Real Property Taxes applicable to 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx. Real Property Taxes shall not include any capital levy, franchise, estate, inheritance, succession, gift or transfer tax of Lessor, or any income, profits or excess profits tax, assessment, charge or levy upon the income of Lessor; provided, however, that if at any time during the term of this Lease under the laws of the United States or the State of California or any political subdivision of either, a tax or excise on rents, space or other aspects of real property, is levied or assessed against Lessor, the same shall be deemed to be Real Property Taxes. If any such property taxes upon the income of Lessor shall be imposed on a graduated scale, based upon Lessor’s aggregate rental income, Real Property Taxes shall include only such portion of such property taxes as would be payable if the rent payable with respect to the Building and Common Areas were the only rental income of Lessor subject thereto.
3.5 Rent Adjustment for Consumer Price Index. The annual rent shall be adjusted as of the expiration of each full or partial calendar year of the lease term (the “Adjustment Date”) to reflect any change in the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index, Subgroup “All Items”, entitled “Consumer Price Index, Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (Revised Series), L.A. - Anaheim - Riverside Average (1982-1984 = 100).” The index for said subgroup applicable for the month of December (or the month preceding the Commencement Date for the first full or partial calendar year of the lease term) preceding each adjustment date shall be considered the “base” and the annual rent following each adjustment date shall be computed by adjusting the annual rent payable for the preceding calendar year thereof by the percentage change In the index as of the adjustment date over the “base”; provided, however, in no event shall the rent payable for any year be less than the rent payable for the preceding period on account of the adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.5, notwithstanding the fact that the index may, as of some adjustment date, be less than the “base.” If as of any adjustment date there shall not exist the Consumer Price Index in the same format as set forth above, the parties shall substitute any official index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or any successor or similar Governmental agency as may then be in existence and shall be most nearly equivalent thereto. If the parties shall be unable to agree upon a successor index, the parties shall refer the choice to arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
The Annual Rent Adjustment for any year of the Initial term shall in no event be less than two percent (2%) or greater than six percent (6%) per annum.
3.6 Calculation and Payment
(a) Annual rent shall by payable to Lessor without deduction or offset, in lawful money of the United States at Lessor’s address herein or to such other persons or at such other places as Lessor designates in writing. Rent payable for any period for less than one month shall be prorated based upon a thirty (30) day month.
Prior to the commencement of the lease term and of each December thereafter, Lessor shall give Lessee a written estimate of Lessee’s share of Building and Common Area Operating Expenses for the ensuing year or portion thereof. Lessee shall pay such estimated amount to Lessor In equal monthly installments, In advance. Within ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year, Lessor shall furnish to Lessee a statement showing in reasonable detail the actual Building and Common Area Operating Expenses incurred by Lessor during such period, and the parties shall within thirty (30) days make any payment or allowance necessary to adjust Lessee’s estimated payment to Lessee’s actual proportionate share as shown by such annual statement. Any amount due Lessee shall be credited against installments next coming due under this paragraph. Lessee or its representatives shall be entitled to examine Lessor’s books and records pertaining to such costs upon reasonable advance written notice to Lessor.
3
(b) Within ninety (90) days after each adjustment date, Lessor shall furnish Lessee a written statement showing the percentage change in the index for the period ending on the adjustment date and specifying the increase, if any, in the annual rent subsequent to the adjustment date, taking into account all prior adjustments to annual rent for the period preceding the adjustment date pursuant to this paragraph above and applying any percentage increase in the index to the annual rent as previously adjusted. At the rental payment date next following Lessee’s receipt of such statement, Lessee shall pay Lessor an amount equal to one twelfth (1/12) of the adjustment pursuant to this Paragraph (b) multiplied by the number of rent payment dates (including the current one) since the relevant adjustment date. Subsequent rental payments shall be increased by one twelfth (1/12) of the adjustment pursuant to this Paragraph (b).
3.7 End of Term. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Lessee shall pay Lessor, as additional rent, the aggregate rental increase which would have been payable by Lessee pursuant to this Article 3, except for such expiration or termination, for the portion of the year in which termination or expiration occurs through the termination date. The amount of such payment shall be calculated by Lessor based upon Sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.5 (using the expiration or termination date as the adjustment date for Section 3.5) and the best information then available to lessor, and shall give effect to all prior adjustments and payments on account by Lessee pursuant to this Article 3.
Concurrently with Lessee’s execution of this Lease, Lessee shall deposit with Lessor the sum specified in Item 8 of the Basic Lease Provisions as security for the faithful performance by Lessee of all covenants and conditions of this Lease. If Lessee shall breach’ or default in the performance of any covenants or conditions of this Lease, including the payment of rent, Lessor may use, apply or retain the whole or any part of such security deposit for the payment of any rent in default or for any other sum which Lessor may spend or be required to spend by reason of Lessee’s default. If Lessor so uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit, Lessee shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, deposit cash with Lessor in an amount sufficient to restore said deposit to the full amount hereinabove stated and Lessee’s failure to do so shall be a material breach of this Lease. Should Lessee comply with all covenants and conditions of this Lease, the security deposit or any balance thereof shall be returned to Lessee (or at the option of Lessor, to the last assignee of Lessee’s interest in this Lease) at the expiration of the term. Lessee shall not be entitled to interest on the security deposit and Lessor shall have the right to commingle said security deposit with other funds of Lessor. Should Lessor sell its interest in the Premises, Lessor may transfer to the purchaser thereof the then unexpended or unappropriated deposit and thereupon Lessor shall be discharged from any further liability for such funds.
5. USE
5.1 Use. The Premises shall be used and occupied for lawful general office or industrial purposes permitted under applicable ordinances and other Governmental requirements, the covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, as the same may be amended from time to time, and the Rules and Regulations as Lessor may from time to time reasonably adopt for the safety, care and cleanliness of the Building and 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx or the preservation of good order.

Lessee shall at Lessee’s expense, comply promptly with all applicable statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders and requirements in effect regulating the use by Lessee of the Premises. Lessee shall not use or permit the use of the Premises in any manner that will tend to create waste or a nuisance or which disturbs other tenants of the Building.
5.3 Insurance Cancellation. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 5.1 above, Lessee shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises nor bring or keep anything therein - including all uses permitted under Section 5.1 above - which will in any way increase the existing rate of or affect any fire or other insurance upon the Building or any other part thereof or any of its contents, and if Lessee’s use of the Premises causes an increase in said insurance rates, Lessee shall pay as additional rent the amount of such increase. Lessee shall be in default under this Lease should Lessee cause the cancellation of fire or other insurance upon the Building or Property or should Lessee fail to pay any increased insurance rate attributable to Lessee’s use of the Premises. In determining whether increased premiums are a result of Lessee’s use or occupancy of the Premises, Property or Building, a schedule issued by Lessor’s insurer computing the insurance rate on the Premises, Property or Building, or the Leasehold Improvements showing the various components of such rate, shall be conclusive evidence of the several items and charges which make up such rate.

If the Premises, or so much of the Building as to cause the Premises to be uninhabitable, are damaged during the last six (6) months of the term of this Lease or any renewal thereof, Lessor may, at Lessor’s option, terminate this Lease as of the date of occurrence of such damage by giving written notice to Lessee of Lessor’s election to do so within thirty (30) days after the date of occurrence of such damage; provided, however, that if the term of this Lease has been extended for any reason whatsoever, Lessor’s right to terminate this Lease shall only apply during the last six (6) months of the then current term of this Lease.
8.3 Abatement of Rent: Lessee’s Remedies.
(a) If Lessor is obligated or elects to repair the Premises as provided above, the rent payable for the period from commencement until completion of repair shall be abated, in proportion to the degree to which Lessee’s use of the Premises is impaired; provided, however, that the aggregate period of abatement hereunder shall not exceed six (6) months. Except for such abatement, if any, Lessee shall have no claim against Lessor for any damage suffered by reason of any such damage, destruction, repair or restoration.
(b) If Lessor is obligated or elects to repair the Premises as provided above, but does not commence such repair within ninety (90) days after such obligation shall accrue, subject to an extension or up to another ninety (90) days for delays beyond the reasonable control of Lessor, Lessee may, at Lessee’s option, terminate this Lease by giving Lessor written notice of Lessee’s election to do so at any time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration, in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date of such destruction.

7
10. UTILITIES
Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, janitorial services and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon. If any such services are separately metered or charged to Lessee, Lessee shall pay a pro rata proportion, as part of operating expenses, based on leasable area, of all charges jointly metered or charged with other premises. Lessor shall not be liable in damages or otherwise unless due to Lessor’s gross negligence for any failure or interruption of any utility services being furnished to the building and no such failure or interruption shall entitle Lessee to terminate this lease. In no event shall Lessor be liable for any such failure or interruption caused by the exercise of governmental authority, strikes, riots, acts of God, war, adverse weather conditions, fire, flood, or casualties or acts of third parties beyond Lessor’s control. The operation and control of utilities, air conditioning and any other energy system is subject to compliance with any government authority governing the regulation and use of energy systems within the commercial office or industrial building structure. Lessee shall not subject any of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, sewer or other utility or service systems or equipment to exercise or use which causes damage to said systems or equipment. Any such damages to equipment caused by Lessee overloading such equipment shall be rectified by Lessee, or may, at Lessor’s option, be rectified by Lessor, at Lessee’s sole cost and expense.
11. ASSIGNEMENT AND SUBLETTING
11.1 Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law sublet, assign, transfer, mortgage or otherwise encumber, or grant concessions, licenses or franchises with respect to all or any part of Lessee’s interest in this Lease or the Premises without the prior written consent of Lessor. If Lessee desires at any time to assign this Lease or to sublet the Premises or any portion thereof, it shall first notify Lessor of its desire to do so and shall submit in writing to Lessor (i) the name of the proposed sublessee or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed sublessee or assignee; (ii) the nature of the proposed sublessee’s or assignee’s business to be carried on in the Premises; (iii) the terms and provisions of the proposed sublease or assignment; (iv) such reasonable financial information as Lessor may request concerning the proposed sublessee or assignee, including, but not limited to a balance sheet as of a date within ninety (90) days of the request for Lessor’s consent, statements of income or profit and loss for the two year period preceding the request for Lessor’s consent and a written statement in reasonable details as to the business experience of the proposed sublessee or assignee during the five (5) years preceding the request for Lessor’s consent; and (v) the name and address of sublessee’s or assignee’s present or previous landlord. Lessor may, as a condition to granting such consent, require that the obligations of any assignee which is a subsidiary or affiliate of another corporation be guaranteed by the parent or controlling corporation. Any sublease, license, concession, franchise or other permission to use the Promises shall be expressly subject and subordinate to all applicable terms and conditions of this Lease. Any purported or attempted assignment, transfer, mortgage, encumbrance, subletting, license, concession, franchise or other permission to use the Premises contrary to the provisions of this paragraph shall be void and, at the option of Lessor, shall terminate this Lease.
11.2 If Lessee is a corporation, any transfer of its stock, or any dissolution, merger or consolidation, which results in a change in the control of Lessee from the person or persons owning a majority of its voting stock immediately prior thereto, or the sale of other transfer of all of substantially all of the assets of Lessee, shall constitute an assignment of Lessee’s interest in this Lease within the meaning of the Article 11 and the provisions requiring consent contained herein. Lessor may require as a condition to giving such consent that the new controlling person(s) execute a guaranty of this Lease. If Lessee is a corporation which, under the current guidelines published by the California Commissioner of Corporations, is not deemed to be a public corporation, the transfer, assignment or hypothecation of any interest in such corporation in the aggregate in excess of 25% (other than a transfer occurring by operation of law upon the death of the holder of such interest) shall be deemed an assignment within the provisions of this Article.
11.3 No subletting, assignment, license, concession, franchise or other permission to use the Premises shall relieve Lessee of its obligations to pay the rent or to perform all of the other obligations to be performed by Lessee hereunder. The acceptance of rent by Lessor from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Lessor of any provisions of this Lease.
11.4 At any time within ten (10) days after Lessor’s receipt of the information specified in Section 1 1.1 above, Lessor may by written notice to Lessee elect (a) to sublease the Premises or the portion thereof so proposed to be subleased by Lessee, or to take an assignment of Lessee’s leasehold estate hereunder, upon the same terms as those offered to the proposed sublessee or assignee, as the case may be; or (b) disapprove such assignment or subletting. If Lessor does not act within the twenty (20) days, such failure to act is deemed a disapproval of such request for assignment or subletting.
11.5 Each assignee or transferee, other than Lessor, shall assume, all obligations of Lessee under this Lease and shall be and remain liable jointly and severally with Lessee for the payment
8
of the rent, and for the due performance of all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements to be performed by Lessee hereunder; provided, however, that a transferee other than an assignee shall be liable to Lessor for rent only in the amount set forth in the assignment or transfer. No assignment shall be binding on Lessor unless such assignee or Lessee shall deliver to Lessor a counterpart of such assignment and an instrument in recordable form which contains a covenant of assumption by such assignee satisfactory in substance and form to Lessor, consistent with the requirements of this Section 11.5, but the failure or refusal of such assignee to execute such instrument of assumption shall not release or discharge such assignee from its liabiility as set forth above.
11.6 Consent by Lessor to any subleting or assignment shall be conditioned upon payment by Lessee to Lessor of all “Transfer Consideration” (as hereafter defined) received or to be received, directly or indirectly, by Lessee on account of such assignment of subletting. Transfer Consideration shall be paid to Lessor at the same time or times as the same is due to Lessee. Failure to pay Lessor the Transfer Consideration, or any portion or installment thereof, shall be deemed a default under this Lease, entitling Lessor to exercise all remedies available to it under law including, but not limited to, those specified in Article 12 of this Lease. “Transfer Consideration” shall mean (a) in the case of a subletting, any consideration paid or given, directly or indirectly, by the sublessee to Lessee pursuant to the sublease for the use of the Premises, or any portion thereof, over and above the rent and any additonal rent, however denominated, in this Lease, payable by Lessee to Lessor for the use of the Premises (or portion thereof), prorating as appropriate the amount payable by Lessee to Lessor under this Lease if less than all of the Premises is sublet, and (b) in the case of an assignment or a sublease, any consideration paid or given, directly or indirectly, by the sublessee or assignee to Lessee in exchange for entering into the sublease or assignment, but shall not include reimbursement for any security deposit, reimbursement of any improvements, fixtures or furnishings installed in the Premises by Lessee or any payment for personal property of Lessee not in excess of Lessee’s book value thereof. As used herein, consideration shall include consideration in any form, including but not limited to, money, property, assumption of liabilities other than those arising under this Lease, discounts, services, credits or any other item or thing of value, irrespective of the form of such consideration, Lessor shall be entitled to be paid in cash in an amount equivalent to the aggregate of the case portion of the Transfer Consideration and the value of any non-cash portion of the Transfer Consideration. If any Transfer Consideration is to be paid or given in installments, Lessee shall pay each such installment at the time the same is to be paid or given.
12.1 Default by Lessee. The occurence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a default of this Lease by Lessee:
(a) The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee combined with the failure to pay rent;
(b) The failure of Lessee to make any payment of rent or any other payment required to be made by Lessee hereunder, as and when due, where such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after wirtten notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161;
(c) The failure by Lessee to observe or perform any of the covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease (or the covenants, conditions and restrictions giverning 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx) to be observed or performed by Lessee, other than described in Paragraph 12.1 (b) hereof, where such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided, however, that any such notice shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any notice required under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161; provided further, that if the nature of Lessee’s default is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default if Lessee commences such cure within said thirty (30) days period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; or
(d) The making by Lessee of any general assignment or general arrangement for the benefit of creditors; the filing by or against Lessee of a petition to have Lessee adjudged a bankrupt or a petition for reorganization or arrangement under any law relating to bankruptcy (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within sixty (60) days); the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of the Lessee’s assets located at the Premises, or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within thirty (30) days; or the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within thirty (30) days.
9
12.2 Remedies for Default of Lessee. In the vent of any such default, Lessor may at any time thereafter, upon notice and demand and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any other right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such default or breach:
(a) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover form Lessee:
(1) The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of termination;
(2) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Lessee proves could have been reasonable avoided;
(3) The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and
(4) Any other amount necessary to compnesate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by Lessee’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to; the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of releasing including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any other reasonable cost. The ”worth of the time of award” of the amounts referred to in subparagraphs (1) and (2) above shall be computed by allowing interest at five (5) percentage points above the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of the award. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in subparagraph (3) above shall be computed by discounting such amount at one (1) percentage point above such discount rate.
(b) Require Lessee to make payment of all rental obligations in cash or by certified cashiers check.
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Lessor under the laws or judicial decisions of the State of California, including but not limited to, the remedy provided in California Civil Code Section 1951.4 to continue this Lease in effect.
12.3 Default by Lessor. Lessor shall not be in default of any of the obligations of Lessor under this Lease unless Lessor fails to perform such obligations within a reasonable time, but in no event less than thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to Lessor specifying wherein Lessor has failed to perform such obligations; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s default in such that more than (30) days are required for its cure, Lessor shall not be in default if Lessor commences such cure within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. In the event of any such default by Lessor, Lessee may pursue any remedy now or hereafter available to Lessee under the laws of judicial decisions of the State of California, except that Lessee shall not have the right to terminate this Lease except as expressly provided herein. Lessee waives any right to deduct the expenses of such reparis from the rent and waives, except as herein provided, any Lessor obligations for tenant abaility of the Building or Premises.
12.4 Late Charges. Lessee acknowledges that the late payment by Lessee to Lessor of rent and other sums due hereunder will cause Lessor to incur costs not contempated by this Lessee, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges which may be imposed on Lessor by the terms of any mortgage or trust deed covering the Premises. Accordingly, if any installment of rent or any other sum due from Lessee shall not be received by Lessor or Lessor‘s designee within ten (10) days after the same is due, Lessee shall pay to Lessor a late charge equal to fifteen percent (15%) of such overdue amount monthly until such overdue amount is paid. Lessee acknowledges that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the cost Lessor will incur by reason of a late payment by Lessee. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s default with respect to such overdue amounts, nor prevent Lessor from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder.
13. CONDEMNATION OR RESTRICTION ON USE
13.1 Eminent Domain. If the whole of the Premises or so much thereof as to render the balance unusable by Lessee shall be taken under power of eminent domain, this Lease shalll automatically terminate as of the date of such condemnation, or as of the date possession is taken by the condemning authority, whichever is earlier. No award for any partial or entire taking shall be apportioned, and Lessee hereby assigns to Lessor any award which may be made in such taking or condemnation, together with any and all rights of Lessee now or hereafter arising in or ot the same
10
or any part thereof; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give Lessor any interest in or to require Lessee to assign to Lessor any award made to Lessee for its relocation expenses, the taking of personal property and fixtures belonging to Lessee, the interruption of or damage to Lessee’s business and/or for Lessee’s unamortized cost of leasehold improvements. The unamortized portion of the Lessee’s expenditures for improving the Premises shall be determined by multiplying such expenditures by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of years of the term of this Lease which shall not have expired at the time of such appropriation or taking, and the denominator of which shall be the number of years of the term of this Lease which shall not have expired at the time of improving the Premises. In no event shall options to renew or extend be taken into consideration in determining the payment to be made to the Lessee. Lessee’s right to receive compensation or damages for its fixtures and personal property shall not be affected in any manner thereby.
13.2 Abatement of Rent. In the event of a partial or temporary taking which does not result in a termination of this Lease, rent shall be abated in proportion to the part of the Premises so made unusable by Lessee.
13.3 Temporary Taking. No temporary taking of the Premises and/or of Lessee’s rights therein or under this Lease shall terminate this Lease; and any award made by reason of any such temporary taking shall belong entirely to Lessor.
13.4 Voluntary Sale as Taking. A voluntary sale by Lessor to any public body or agency having the pwoer of eminent domain, either under threat of condemnation or while condemnation proceedings are pending, shall be deemed to be a taking under the power of eminent domain for the purpose of this Article 13.
14. BROKERS
Lessor acknnowledges its obligation to pay a single commission to the broker(s) specified in Item 9 of the Basic Lease Provisions, if any. Lessee represents and warrants that it has neither incurred nor is aware of any other broker’s finder’s or similar fee in connection with the origin, negotiation, execution or performance of this Lease and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lessor from any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense incurred by reason of a breach of this representation.
15.1 The term “Lessor” as used herein shall mean only the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title or a Lessee’s interest in a ground lease of the Building. In the event of any transfer of such title or interest, Lessor herein named (and in case of any subsequent transfers, the then grantor) shall be relieved from, and after the date of such transfers of all liability for Lessor’s obligations thereafter to be performed; provided, however that any funds in the hands of Lessor or the then grantor at the time of such transfer in which Lessee has an interest shall be delivered to the grantee. The obligations contained in this Lease to be performed by Lessor shall, subject as aforesaid, be binding on Lessor’s successors and assigns only during their respective periods of ownership, and no such successor or assignee shall be liable for the obligations of its predecessor Lessor hereunder.
15.2 The inital Lessor hereunder is a joint venture operating as a California limited partnership. In consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder, Lessee, its successors and assigns, agree that, in the event of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default hereunder by the initial Lessor;

Lessee’s use of such parking facilities or that of its invitees shall be limited to a maximum of the number of parking spaces shown in Item 10 of the Basic Lease Provisions (but such space will not be separately identified and Lessor shall have no obligation to monitor the use of such parking facility), and shall be subject to such rules and regulations as may be established from time to time by Lessor for the effectiive use of such parking facilities. Such rules and regulations may include, but shall not be limited to; designation of specific areas for use;by invitees of Lessee and Lestor; hours during which parking shall be available for use; parking attendants; a parking validation or other control system to prevent parking abuse; and such other matters affecting the parking operation to the end that said facilities shall be utilized to maximum efficiency and in the best interest of Lessor, Lessee and their respective invitees.

17.7 Holding Over. If Lessee holds over after the expiration or earlier termination of the term hereof without the express written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall become a tenant at sufferance only at the then prevailing market rate as determined by Lessor in its sole and absolute discretion for the space in effect upon the date of such expiration or earlier termination (subject to adjustment as provided in Article 3 hereof and prorated on a daily basis), and otherwise upon the terms, covenants and conditions herein specified, so far as applicable.

If Lessee defaults under the Lease, Lessor can proceed immediately against Guarantor or Lessee, or both, or Lessor can enforce against Guarantor or Lessee, or both, any rights that it has under the Lease, or pursuant to applicable laws. If the Lease terminates and Lessor has any rights it can enforce against Lessee after termination, Lessor can enforce those rights against Guarantor without giving previous notice to Lessee or Guarantor, or without making any demand on either of them.

Guarantor waives any defense by reason of any disability of Lessee, and waives any other defense based on the termination of Lessee’s liability from any cause.

If Lessor is required to enforce Guarantor’s obligations by legal proceedings, Guarantor shall pay to Lessor all costs incurred, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.
The obligations of Lessee under the Lease to execute and deliver estoppel statements, as therein provided, shall be deemed to also require the Guarantor hereunder to do and provide the same relative to Guarantor.

(d) A transfer of Agility’s stock on a public exchange shall not, by itself, constitute a change of control of Agility.
(e) Consent of PAA to the Sublease is conditioned upon receipt of consent of the guarantor under the Lease, Inamed Corporation, a Delaware corporation, substantially in the form of Exhibit “B” annexed hereto.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this consent, PAA’s consent to the Sublease does not in any way release or modify any of XxXxxx’x obligations under the Lease. XxXxxx remains directly and primarily liable to PAA as Lessee under the Lease.
