will not interfere with or delay Landlord’s completion of construction of the Tenant Improvements.
All rights of Tenant under this subsection 1.7 will be subject to the requirements of all

been obtained if the Index had not been so discontinued or revised.

regulated banking institution as Landlord shall determine), or (b) the maximum interest rate

otherwise determined by Landlord, including by way of illustration but not limitation, all of the
following: (a) all amounts charged to the Building pursuant to the REA; (b) Real Property Taxes;

in order to operate the Building at the same quality level as prior to such replacement; (g) costs
and expenses of operation, repair and maintenance of all structural and mechanical portions and
components of the Building including, without limitation, plumbing, communication, heating,

is servicing the Canyons Center; (i) all costs incurred in the management and operation of the
Building including, without limitation, gardening and landscaping, maintenance of all parking

attributable to personal property used in connection with the Building; (k) depreciation on
personal property owned by Landlord which is consumed in the operation or maintenance of the
Building; (l) rental or lease payments paid by Landlord for rented or leased personal property used
in the operation or maintenance of the Building; (m) management fees, wages, salaries and other

and appropriate reserves for repair and replacement; and (q) a reasonable allowance to Landlord for
supervision of all of the foregoing not to exceed five percent (5%) of the total of all other
Operating Expenses. If the Building is not 95% occupied during any portion of the Lease Term,
Landlord shall make an appropriate adjustment to Operating Expenses for such period employing sound
accounting and management principles, to determine the amount of Operating Expenses that would have
been incurred had the Building been 95% occupied during such period (collectively referred to as
“Grossed-Up”). Operating Expenses shall not include depreciation of the Building or equipment
therein, commissions of real estate brokers and leasing agents, nor any amounts expended for tenant

LEASE TERM
LEASE TERM
3.1 Delivery of Possession.
Landlord will be deemed to have delivered possession of the Premises to Tenant on the
Commencement Date, as it may be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.3 and the Work Letter. Landlord
will construct or install in the Premises the Improvements (hereinafter defined) to be constructed
or installed by Landlord according to the Work Letter. Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord
nor its agents or employees have made any representations or warranties as to the suitability or
fitness of the Premises for the conduct of Tenant’s business or for any other purpose, nor has
Landlord or its agents or employees agreed to undertake any alterations or construct any tenant
improvements to the Premises except as expressly provided in this Lease and the Work Letter. If
for any reason Landlord cannot deliver
Page 8
possession of the Premises to Tenant on or before the fixed date component of the Commencement
Date, this Lease will not be void or voidable, and Landlord will not be liable to Tenant for any
resultant loss or damage.
3.2 Substantial Completion of Premises.
If, by the fixed date specified in Section 1.7, the Premises have not been substantially
completed pursuant to the Work Letter due to any cause other than Landlord’s default, Landlord
shall have no liability therefor, and the Lease Term (including without limitation, Tenant’s
obligation to pay Rent) shall nonetheless commence as of said fixed date.
3.3 Landlord Delays.
If the Premises are not substantially completed by the fixed date specified in Section 1.7 due
to default on the part of Landlord (as determined in accordance with Article 26 below), then as
Tenant’s sole remedy for the delay in Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises, the fixed date component
of the definition of the Commencement Date shall be delayed for the period of delay in substantial
completion of the Premises resulting from Landlord’s default. The Premises shall be deemed
“substantially completed” when (i) Landlord has provided reasonable access to the Premises to
Tenant, (ii) Landlord has completed the work covered by the Work Letter other than details of
construction which do not materially interfere with Tenant’s use of the Premises, and (iii)
Landlord has obtained a permanent or temporary certificate of occupancy for the Premises (or its
equivalent).

The Premises shall be used for general office purposes and for no other purposes. Tenant will
use the Premises in a careful, safe, and proper manner. Tenant agrees not to use or permit the use
of the Premises for any purpose which is illegal or prohibited by any applicable Laws, or which, in
Landlord’s opinion, creates a nuisance or would increase the cost of insurance coverage with
respect to the Building. Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises in violation of such rules
and regulations described in Article 15 below nor in violation of the REA or any other recorded
covenants, conditions or restrictions affecting the Building. Tenant shall not place a load upon

(iii) To close temporarily any of the Common Areas for maintenance purposes so long as
reasonable access to the Premises remains available;
(iv) To use the Common Areas while engaged in making additional improvements, repairs
or alterations to the Building, or any portion thereof; and
(v) To do and perform such other acts and make such other changes in, to or with
respect to the Common Areas and Building as Landlord may, in the exercise of sound business
judgment, deem to be appropriate.
ARTICLE 5
BASE RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT
BASE RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT
5.1 Base Rent.
Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord during the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction
whatsoever the Base Rent, and all such other sums of money as shall become due hereunder as
Additional Rent. Should Tenant fail to pay any Additional Rent in a timely manner, Landlord shall
be entitled to exercise all such rights and remedies as are herein provided in the case of the
nonpayment of Base Rent. The annual Base Rent for each calendar year or portion thereof during the
Lease Term, together with estimated Additional Rent pursuant to Article 6 hereof then in effect,
shall be due and payable in advance, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be
legal tender at the time of payment, in twelve (12) equal installments on the first day of each
calendar month during the initial term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals thereof, and
Tenant hereby agrees to pay such Base Rent and Additional Rent to Landlord at Landlord’s address
provided herein (or such other address as may be designated by Landlord in writing from time to
time) monthly, in advance, and without demand. If the Lease Term commences on a day other than the
first day of a month or terminates on a day other than the last day of a month, then the
installments of Base Rent and Additional Rent for such month or months shall be prorated, based on
the number of days in such month.
5.2 Intentionally Omitted.
5.3 Additional Rent.
All charges payable by Tenant hereunder other than Base Rent (including, without limitation,
Operating Expenses payable pursuant to Article 6 below) are called “Additional Rent.” Unless this
Lease provides otherwise, all Additional Rent shall be paid with the next monthly installment of
Base Rent. Base Rent and Additional Rent are sometimes referred to collectively as “Rent.”
5.4 Interest on Late Payments.
All installments of Rent not paid when due and payable shall bear interest at the Lease
Interest Rate from the date due until paid. In addition, if any installment of Rent is not
received by Landlord within five (5) days after notice that said amount is past due from Landlord
to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as Additional Rent, five percent (5%) of the overdue
amount as a late charge. Landlord’s acceptance of any late charge or interest shall not constitute
a waiver of Tenant’s default with respect to the overdue amount nor prevent Landlord from
exercising any of the other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease or any law
now or hereafter in effect.
ARTICLE 6
BASE RENT ADJUSTMENT
BASE RENT ADJUSTMENT
The Base Rent payable hereunder shall be adjusted upward from time to time in accordance with
the following provisions:
(a) Tenant shall pay to Landlord as an adjustment to Rent, an amount equal to
the excess (the “Excess”) from time to time of total annual Operating Expenses per
square foot of Rentable Area of the Premises, as Grossed-Up, over and above the
Expense Stop. The Excess shall be obtained by multiplying (i) the difference
between the annual Operating Expense per square foot of Rentable Area in the
Premises and the Expense Stop, by (ii) the total Rentable Area of the Premises as
set forth in Section 1.15. Such amount shall be paid in advance in monthly
installments on the same dates as Base Rent is due and payable hereunder based on
Landlord’s notice delivered to Tenant from time to time setting forth Landlord’s
good faith estimate of the Operating Expenses for
Page 10
the current calendar year. Landlord shall have the right to adjust such amount no
more than once a year to reflect any changes in Landlord’s estimate of Operating
Expenses.
(b) By April 1 of each calendar year during the Lease Term, or as soon
thereafter as practicable, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement (“Actual
Statement”) of Landlord’s annual Operating Expenses, as Grossed-Up, for the previous
calendar year. If for any calendar year the amounts collected from Tenant for the
prior year, as a result of Landlord’s estimate of Operating Expenses, exceeds the
amount of the Excess actually due during such prior year, then Landlord shall refund
to Tenant any overpayment (or at Landlord’s option, apply such amount against Rent
due or to become due hereunder). Likewise, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand,
any underpayment with respect to the prior year.
(c) In the event of any good faith dispute as to the amount of the Excess as
set forth in the statement of actual Operating Expenses, Tenant shall have the
right, no more frequently than once per calendar year, after reasonable notice to
Landlord and at reasonable times, to inspect and photocopy Landlord’s Operating
Expenses records at Landlord’s offices. If, after such inspection and photocopy,
Tenant continues, in good faith, to dispute the amount of the Excess as set forth in
said statement, Tenant shall be entitled not later than one (1) year following
Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement to retain a national, independent, certified
public accountant who is not contracted on a contingency fee basis and is mutually
acceptable to Landlord and Tenant to audit Landlord’s Operating Expenses records
with respect to the calendar year covered by Actual Statement to determine the
proper amount of the Excess. Landlord shall be entitled to review the results of
such audit promptly after completion of same. If such audit proves that Landlord
has overcharged Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit
are made available to Landlord, Landlord shall credit Tenant the amount of such
overcharge toward the payments of Base Rent and Additional Rent next coming due
under this Lease. If the results of such audit prove that Landlord has undercharged
Tenant, then within fifteen (15) days after the results of the audit are made
available to Tenant, Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of any such
undercharge. Tenant agrees to pay the cost of such audit, provided that Landlord
shall reimburse Tenant the amount of such cost if the results of such audit prove
that Landlord’s determination of the Excess (as set forth in the Actual Statement)
was in error by more than six percent (6%). If Tenant does not request an audit in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c) within one (1) year after
Tenant’s receipt of an Actual Statement, such Actual Statement shall be conclusively
binding upon Tenant. Landlord shall be required to maintain records of all
Operating Expenses for three (3) years following the issuance of the Operating
Expense statement for such Operating Expenses. The payment by Tenant of any amounts
pursuant to this Article shall not preclude Tenant from questioning the correctness
of any such statement.
ARTICLE 7

actions of unauthorized persons on the Premises or in the Building and Landlord
shall not be required to insure against any such losses. Tenant shall cooperate
fully in Landlord’s efforts to maintain security in the Building and shall follow
all regulations promulgated by Landlord which respect thereto.
The failure by Landlord to any extent to furnish, or the interruption or termination of these
defined services in whole or part, resulting from causes beyond the reasonable control of Landlord
shall not render Landlord liable in any respect nor be construed as an eviction of Tenant, nor work
an abatement of Rent, nor relieve Tenant from the obligation to fulfill any covenant or agreement
hereof. Should any of the equipment or machinery used in the provision of such services for any
cause cease to function properly, Tenant shall have no claim for offset or abatement or rent or
damages on account of an interruption in service resulting therefrom.

REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS BY TENANT
Tenant covenants and agrees that Tenant shall be responsible, at Tenant’s own cost and
expense, for costs incurred by Landlord to repair or replace any damage done to the Building, or
any part thereof, caused by Tenant or Tenant’s agents, employees, invitees, or visitors, to as good
a condition as it was in prior to such damage. Tenant shall, when and if needed or whenever
requested by Landlord to do so, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, maintain and make all repairs to
the Premises and the improvements therein, to keep, maintain and preserve the Premises in
first-class condition, excepting ordinary wear and tear. Any such maintenance and repairs shall be
performed by a contractor approved by Landlord. If Tenant fails to make such repairs or
replacements promptly, Landlord may, at its option, make repairs or replacements, and Tenant shall
pay the cost thereof to Landlord on demand as Additional Rent. Tenant
Page 12
agrees with Landlord not to make or allow to be made any alterations to the Premises, install any
vending machines on the Premises, or place signs on the Premises which are visible from outside the
Premises, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord in each such instance, which
consent may be given on such conditions as Landlord may elect. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord,
for Landlord’s approval prior to the construction of any alterations, a complete set of plans and
specifications for the proposed alterations, additions or improvements, copies of contracts with
general contractors, evidence of contractor’s insurance and bonds, and all necessary permits for
such construction. Landlord may require Tenant to provide demolition and/or lien and completion
bonds in form and amount satisfactory to Landlord. All alterations, additions, and improvements
will be accomplished in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformity with all applicable laws, and
by a contractor approved by Landlord. Landlord’s approval of the plans, specifications and working
drawings for Tenant’s alterations shall create no responsibility or liability on the part of
Landlord for their completeness, design, sufficiency, or compliance with all laws, rules and
regulations of governmental agencies or authorities. Upon completion of any such work, Tenant
shall provide Landlord with “as built” plans, copies of all construction contracts, and proof of
payment for all labor and materials. Any and all alterations to the Premises shall become the
property of Landlord upon termination of this Lease (except for movable equipment or furniture
owned by Tenant). Landlord may, nonetheless, require Tenant to remove any and all fixtures,
equipment and other improvements installed on the Premises. In the event that Landlord so elects,
and Tenant fails to remove such improvements, Landlord may remove such improvements at Tenant’s
cost, and Tenant shall pay Landlord on demand the cost of restoring the Premises to the condition
that existed immediately prior to the construction of such improvements.

and occupation of the Premises.
(b) In the event that Tenant requires or uses more electric power than

to pay the cost as reasonably determined by Landlord of such extraordinary usage as
Additional Rent. In addition, Landlord may install checkmeters in or for the
Premises, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, and Tenant shall thereafter pay all
charges of the utility company providing electric service and Landlord shall make an
appropriate adjustment to Tenant’s obligation to pay a proportionate share of the
Operating Expenses to account for the fact that Tenant is directly paying such
metered charges.

under this Article 14 will survive the expiration or other termination of this
Lease.

which would (i) jeopardize or be in conflict with fire insurance policies covering the Building or
covering any fixtures and property in the Building; (ii) increase the rate of fire insurance
applicable to the Building to an amount higher than it otherwise would be for general office use of
the Building; or (iii) subject Landlord to any liability or responsibility for injury to any person
or persons or to property by reason of any business or operation being carried on upon the
Premises.

or reduction of rent by reason thereof.
ARTICLE 17
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
17.1 Tenant shall not assign, sublease, transfer or encumber this Lease or any interest
therein. Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant in violation of the terms and covenants of
this Article 17 shall be void.
17.2 If Tenant requests Landlord’s consent to an assignment of this Lease or subletting of all
or part of the Premises, Landlord shall have the option (without limiting Landlord’s other rights
hereunder) of terminating this Lease upon thirty (30) days notice. Landlord may then, at
Landlord’s option, lease space to the prospective assignee or subtenant. If Landlord should fail
to notify Tenant in writing of its decision within a thirty (30) day period after Landlord is
notified in writing of the proposed assignment or sublease, Landlord shall be deemed to have
refused to consent to such proposed assignment or sublease, and to have elected to keep this Lease
in full force and effect.
Page 14
17.3 All cash or other proceeds of any assignment, sale or sublease of Tenant’s interest in
this Lease, whether consented to by Landlord or not, shall be paid to Landlord notwithstanding the
fact that such proceeds exceed the Rent called for hereunder, unless Landlord agrees to the
contrary in writing, and Tenant hereby assigns all rights it might have or ever acquire in any such
proceeds to Landlord. This covenant and assignment shall run with the land and shall bind Tenant
and Tenant’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns.
Any assignee, sublessee or purchaser of Tenant’s interest in this Lease (all such assignees,
sublessees and purchasers being hereinafter referred to as “Successors”), by assuming Tenant’s
obligations hereunder, shall assume liability to Landlord for all amounts paid to persons other
than Landlord by such Successor in consideration of any such sale, assignment or subletting, in
violation of the provisions hereof.
17.4 No assignment, sublease or other transfer consented to by Landlord, shall release Tenant
or change Tenant’s primary liability to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations of Tenant
under this Lease. Upon the occurrence of any default under this Lease, Landlord may proceed
directly against Tenant without the necessity of exhausting any remedies against any subtenant or
assignee. Upon termination of this Lease, any permitted subtenant shall, at Landlord’s option,
attorn to Landlord and shall pay all Rent directly to Landlord. Landlord’s acceptance of Rent from
any other person shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of this Article 17. Consent to one
transfer shall not constitute a consent to any subsequent transfer. Landlord may consent to
subsequent assignments or modifications of this Lease by Tenant’s transferee, without notifying
Tenant or obtaining its consent. Such action shall not relieve Tenant of its liability under this
Lease.
17.5 No merger shall result from Tenant’s sublease of the Premises under this Article 17,
Tenant’s surrender of this Lease or the termination of this Lease in any other manner. In any such
event, Landlord may terminate any or all subtenancies or succeed to the interest of Tenant as
sublandlord thereunder.
ARTICLE 18
LIENS
LIENS
Tenant will not permit any mechanic’s lien(s) or other liens to be placed upon the Premises or
the Building and nothing in this Lease shall be deemed or construed in any way as constituting the
consent or request of Landlord, express or implied, by inference or otherwise, to any person for
the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials to the Premises, or any part
thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right, power, or authority to contract for or permit the
rendering of any services or the furnishing of any materials that would give rise to any mechanics’
or other liens against the Premises. In the event any such lien is attached to the Premises, then,
in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to,
discharge the same. Any amount paid by Landlord for any of the aforesaid purposes shall be paid by
Tenant to Landlord on demand as Additional Rent.
ARTICLE 19
INSURANCE
INSURANCE
19.1 Property Insurance.
Landlord shall maintain property coverage insurance on the Building Shell and appurtenant
structures in the Common Areas in such amounts as Landlord and any Mortgagees may deem necessary or
appropriate. Such insurance shall be maintained at the expense of Landlord (as a part of Operating
Expenses), and payments for losses thereunder shall be made solely to Landlord or the Mortgagees as
their respective interests shall appear. Tenant shall obtain and keep in force at all times during
the Lease Term, a policy or policies of insurance covering loss or damage to all of the
improvements, betterments, income and business contents located within the Premises other than the
Building Shell (including all improvements constructed pursuant to Exhibit “D”) in the amount of
the full replacement value thereof as ascertained by the Tenant’s insurance carrier, as the same
may exist from time to time, against all perils normally covered in an “all risk” policy (including
the perils of flood and surface waters), as such term is used in the insurance industry; provided,
however, that Tenant shall have no obligation to insure against earthquake.
19.2 Liability Insurance.
Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, maintain a policy of Commercial General Liability insurance
insuring Landlord and Tenant against liability arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or
maintenance of the Premises. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence basis providing single-limit
coverage in an amount not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence. The initial
amount of such insurance shall be subject to periodic increase upon reasonable demand by Landlord
based upon inflation, increased liability awards, recommendation of professional insurance
advisers, and other relevant factors. However, the limits of such insurance shall not limit
Tenant’s liability nor relieve
Page 15
Tenant of any obligation hereunder. Landlord shall be named as an additional insured on said
policies and the policies shall contain the following provision: “Such insurance as afforded by
this policy for the benefit of Landlord shall be primary as respects any claims, losses or
liabilities arising out of the use of Premises by the Tenant or by Tenant’s operation and any
insurance carried by Landlord shall be excess and non-contributing.” The policy shall insure
Tenant’s performance of the indemnity provisions of Articles 14 and 20.
19.3 Requirements for Insurance Policies.
Insurance required to be maintained by Tenant hereunder shall be in companies holding a
“General Policyholders’ Rating” of A or better and a “financial rating” of 10 or better, as set
forth in the most current issue of “Best’s Insurance Guide.” Tenant shall promptly deliver to
Landlord, within thirty (30) days of the Commencement Date, original certificates evidencing the
existence and amounts of such insurance. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to
reduction of coverage except after sixty (60) days prior written notice to Landlord. Tenant shall,
within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration, cancellation or reduction of such policies,
furnish Landlord with renewals or “binders” thereof. Tenant shall not do or permit to be done
anything which shall invalidate the insurance policies required under this Lease.
19.4 Waiver of Subrogation Rights.
Tenant and Landlord shall obtain from the issuer of the insurance policies referred to in
Section 19.1 a waiver of subrogation provision in said policies and Tenant and Landlord hereby
release, relieve and waive any and all rights of recovery against Landlord or Tenant, or against
the employees, officers, agents and representatives of Landlord or Tenant, for loss or damage
arising out of or incident to the perils insured against under Section 19.1 which perils occur in,
on or about the Premises or the Building, whether due to the negligence of Landlord or Tenant or
their agents, employees, contractors or invitees. The extent of the waiver described in the
immediately preceding sentence is limited to the extent of insurance carried by Landlord and Tenant
pursuant to Section 19.1 of this Lease.
ARTICLE 20
INDEMNITY
INDEMNITY
Tenant shall indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and all agents, servants and employees of
Landlord from and against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees), penalties and charges arising from or in connection with (i) Tenant’s use of the
Premises during the Lease Term, or (ii) the conduct of Tenant’s business, or (iii) any activity,
work or things done, permitted or suffered by Tenant in or about the Premises during the Lease
Term. Tenant shall further indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and against any and all
claims, loss, damage, liability, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), penalty or charge
arising from any default in the performance of any obligation on Tenant’s part to be performed
under the terms of this Lease, or arising from any negligence of Tenant, or any of Tenant’s agents,
contractors, or employees, and from and against all costs, attorneys’ fees, expenses and
liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action or proceeding brought thereon.
If any action or proceeding be brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, Tenant, upon
notice from Landlord, shall defend the same at Tenant’s expense by legal counsel reasonably
satisfactory to Landlord. Tenant, as a material part of its consideration to Landlord, hereby
assumes all risk of damage to property or injury to persons in or upon the Premises arising from
any cause and Tenant hereby waives all claims in respect thereof against Landlord. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Tenant shall not be required to defend, save harmless or indemnify Landlord from any
liability for injury, loss, accident or damage to any person or property resulting from Landlord’s
negligence or willful acts or omissions, or those of Landlord’s officers, agents, contractors or
employees. Tenant’s indemnity is not intended to nor shall it relieve any insurance carrier of its
obligations under policies required to be carried by Tenant pursuant to the provisions of this
Lease to the extent that such policies cover the results of negligent acts or omissions of
Landlord, its officers, agents, contractors or employees, or the failure of Landlord to perform any
of its obligations under this Lease.
ARTICLE 21
PROPERTY DAMAGE
PROPERTY DAMAGE
If the Premises or any part thereof shall be damaged by fire or other peril, Tenant shall give
prompt written notice thereof to Landlord. In case the Building shall be so damaged that
substantial alteration or reconstruction of the Building shall, in Landlord’s sole opinion, be
required (whether or not the Premises shall have been damaged by such peril) or in the event any
Mortgagee shall require that the insurance proceeds payable as a result of a peril be applied to
the payment of the mortgage debt or in the event of any material uninsured loss to the Building,
Landlord may, at its option, terminate this Lease by notifying Tenant in writing of such
termination within ninety (90) days after the date of such casualty. If Landlord does not thus
elect to terminate this Lease, Landlord shall, as Landlord’s sole obligation, commence and proceed
with reasonable diligence to restore the Building Shell to substantially the same
Page 16
condition in which it was immediately prior to the occurrence of the peril. When the Building
Shell has been restored by Landlord, Tenant shall complete the restoration of the Premises,
including the reconstruction of all improvements in order to complete the Premises and restore the
Premises to the same condition and build-out as prior to the casualty, including all improvements
constructed pursuant to Exhibit “D.” Any plans and specifications for such restoration and
reconstruction and the contractor retained by Tenant for such restoration and reconstruction shall
be subject to the approval of Landlord. All insurance proceeds payable pursuant to policies
maintained by Tenant pursuant to Section 19.1 shall be applied by Tenant to such reconstruction.
Landlord shall not be liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business
of Tenant resulting in any way from such damage or the repair thereof, except that, subject to the
provisions of the next sentence, Landlord shall allow Tenant a fair diminution of rent to the
extent the Premises are unfit for occupancy during the period commencing as of the date of the
casualty and continuing for the period of time, as determined by Landlord, required for Tenant and
Landlord to complete the repairs described in this Article 21. If the Premises or any other
portion of the Building is damaged by fire or other peril resulting from the fault or negligence of
Tenant or any of Tenant’s agents, employees, or invitees, the rent hereunder shall not be
diminished during the repair of such damage and Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for the cost of
the repair and restoration of the Building caused thereby to the extent such cost and expense are
not covered by insurance proceeds.
ARTICLE 22
CONDEMNATION
CONDEMNATION
If the whole or substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises shall be taken for any
public or quasi-public use, by right of eminent domain or otherwise or shall be sold in lieu of
condemnation, then this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of the
Building or the Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If less than the whole or
substantially the whole of the Building or the Premises is thus taken or sold, Landlord (whether or
not the Premises are affected thereby) may terminate this Lease by giving written notice thereof to
Tenant, in which event this Lease shall terminate as of the date when physical possession of such
portion of the Building or Premises is taken by the condemning authority. If the Lease is not so
terminated upon any such taking or sale, the Base Rent payable hereunder shall be diminished by an
equitable amount, and Landlord shall, to the extent Landlord deems feasible, restore the Building
and the Premises to substantially their former condition, but such work shall not exceed the scope
of the work done by Landlord in originally constructing the Building and installing Building
Standard Improvements in the Premises, nor shall Landlord in any event be required to spend for
such work an amount in excess of the amount received by Landlord as compensation for such taking.
All amounts awarded upon a taking of any part or all of the Building or the Premises shall belong
to Landlord, and Tenant shall not be entitled to and expressly waives all claims to any such
compensation.
ARTICLE 23
DAMAGES FROM CERTAIN CAUSES
DAMAGES FROM CERTAIN CAUSES
Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage to any property or person
occasioned by theft, fire, act of God, public enemy, injunction, riot, strike, insurrection, war,
court order, requisition, or order of governmental body or authority or by any other cause beyond
the control of Landlord. In addition, Landlord shall not be liable for any damage or inconvenience
which may arise through repair or alteration of any part of the Building or Premises.
ARTICLE 24
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
EVENTS OF DEFAULT
The following events shall be deemed to be events of default (“Events of Default”) by Tenant
under this Lease:
(a) If Tenant abandons the Premises or if Tenant vacates the Premises for
thirty (30) consecutive days;
(b) If Tenant fails to pay Rent or any other charge required to be paid by
Tenant, as and when due;
(c) If Tenant fails to perform any of Tenant’s non-monetary obligations under
this Lease for a period of ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord;
provided that if more than ten (10) days are required to complete such performance,
Tenant shall not be in default if Tenant commences such performance within such ten
(10) day period and thereafter diligently pursues its completion;
(d) If (i) Tenant makes a general assignment or general arrangement for the
benefit of creditors; (ii) a petition for adjudication of bankruptcy or for
reorganization or rearrangement is filed by or against Tenant and is not dismissed
within thirty (30) days;
Page 17
(iii) a trustee or receiver is appointed to take possession of substantially all of
Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease and
possession is not restored to Tenant within thirty (30) days; or (iv) substantially
all of Tenant’s assets located at the Premises or of Tenant’s interest in this Lease
is subjected to attachment, execution or other judicial seizure which is not
discharged within thirty (30) days. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any of the acts described in this subsection (d) is not a default under this
Lease, and a trustee is appointed to take possession (or if Tenant remains a debtor
in possession) and such trustee or Tenant transfers Tenant’s interest hereunder,
then Landlord shall receive, as Additional Rent, the difference between the rent (or
any other consideration) paid in connection with such assignment or sublease and the
rent payable by Tenant hereunder; or
(e) If any representation or warranty made by Tenant or by a subtenant or
assignee in connection with this Lease shall have been false or misleading as of the
date such representation or warranty was made.
ARTICLE 25
LANDLORD’S REMEDIES
LANDLORD’S REMEDIES
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by Tenant, Landlord may, at any time thereafter,
with or without notice or demand and without limiting Landlord in the exercise of any right or
remedy which Landlord may have:
(a) Terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means,
in which case this Lease shall terminate and Tenant shall immediately surrender
possession of the Premises to Landlord. In such event, Landlord shall be entitled
to recover from Tenant all damages incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant’s
default, including without limitation (i) the worth at the time of the award of the
unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which had been earned at the
time of the termination; (ii) the worth at the time of the award of the amount by
which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges which would have been
earned after termination until the time of the award exceeds the amount of such
rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth
at the time of the award of the amount by which the unpaid Base Rent, Additional
Rent and other charges which would have been paid for the balance of the Lease term
after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves
could have been reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to
compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s failure to
perform its obligations under the Lease or which in the ordinary course of things
would be likely to result therefrom, including, but not limited to, any costs or
expenses incurred by Landlord in maintaining or preserving the Premises after such
default, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting,
including necessary renovation or alteration of the Premises, Landlord’s reasonable
attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith, and any real estate commission
paid or payable. As used in subparts (i) and (ii) above, the “worth at the time of
the award” is computed by allowing interest on unpaid amounts at the rate of
eighteen percent (18%) per annum, or such lesser amount as may then be the maximum
lawful rate, accruing the date such payments are due until paid. As used in subpart
(iii) above, the “worth at the time of the award” is computed by discounting such
amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time
of the award, plus one percent (1%);
(b) Maintain Tenant’s right to possession, in which case this Lease shall
continue in effect whether or not Tenant shall have abandoned the Premises. In such
event, Landlord shall be entitled to enforce all of Landlord’s rights and remedies
under this Lease, including the right to recover Rent as it becomes due hereunder.
Landlord’s election to maintain Tenant’s right to possession shall not prejudice
Landlord’s right, at any time thereafter to terminate Tenant’s right to possession
and proceed in accordance with Section 25(a) above; or
(c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to Landlord under Laws
or judicial decisions of the State of Nevada.
Landlord’s exercise of any right or remedy shall not prevent it from exercising any other
right or remedy.

ARTICLE 26
LANDLORD’S DEFAULT
LANDLORD’S DEFAULT
Landlord shall be in default hereunder in the event 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 of receipt by Landlord of written notice from Tenant of the alleged failure to
perform. 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 Lease or as a result of the
breach of any promise or inducement hereof, whether in the Lease or elsewhere. Tenant hereby
waives such remedies of termination and recession 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, it will give any Mortgagee notice and a reasonable time to cure any default by
Landlord.
ARTICLE 27
PEACEFUL ENJOYMENT
PEACEFUL ENJOYMENT
Tenant shall, and may peacefully have, hold, and enjoy the Premises, subject to the other
terms hereof, provided that Tenant pays the Rent and other sums herein recited to be paid by Tenant
and performs all of Tenant’s covenants and agreements herein contained. This covenant and any and
all other covenants of Landlord shall be binding upon Landlord and its successors only with respect
to breaches occurring during its or their respective periods of ownership of Landlord’s interest
hereunder. Landlord shall be entitled to cause Tenant to relocate from the Premises to other space
(a “Relocation Space”) within the Building at any time after reasonable written notice of
Landlord’s election (not in excess of ninety (90) days) is given to Tenant. Any such relocation
shall be entirely at the expense of Landlord or the third party tenant replacing Tenant in the
Premises. Such a relocation shall not terminate or otherwise affect or modify this Lease except
that from and after the date of such relocation, “Premises” shall refer to the Relocation Space
into which Tenant has been moved, rather than the original Premises as herein defined.
ARTICLE 28
HOLDING OVER
HOLDING OVER
In the event of holding over by Tenant after the expiration or other termination of this Lease
or in the event Tenant continues to occupy the Premises after the termination of Tenant’s right of
possession pursuant to Article 25 above, Tenant shall, throughout the entire holdover period, pay
rent equal to twice the Base Rent and Additional Rent which would have been applicable had the term
of this Lease continued through the period of such holding over by Tenant. If Tenant remains in
possession of all or any part of the Premises after the expiration of the Lease Term, with the
express written consent of Landlord: (a) such tenancy will be deemed to be a periodic tenancy from
month-to-month only; (b) such tenancy will not constitute a renewal or extension of this Lease for
any further term; and (c) such tenancy may be terminated by Landlord upon the earlier of thirty
(30) days prior written notice or the earliest date permitted by law. Such month-to-month tenancy
will be subject to every other term, condition, and covenant contained in this Lease including the
Base Rent and Additional Rent provisions. Nothing contained in this Article 28 shall be construed
as consent by Landlord to any holding over of the Premises by Tenant, and Landlord expressly
reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord upon the
expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon
the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease despite demand to do so by Landlord, Tenant
shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss or liability, including, without
limitation, any claim made by any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from such failure to
surrender.
ARTICLE 29
SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGE
SUBORDINATION TO MORTGAGE
Tenant accepts this Lease subject and subordinate to any mortgage, deed of trust or other lien
presently existing or hereafter arising upon the Premises, upon the Building as a whole, and to any
renewals, refinancing and extensions thereof, but Tenant agrees that any such Mortgagee shall have
the right at any time to subordinate such mortgage, deed of trust or other lien to this Lease on
such terms and subject to such conditions as such Mortgagee may deem appropriate in its discretion.
Landlord is hereby irrevocably vested with full power and authority to subordinate this Lease to
any mortgage, deed of trust or other lien now existing or hereafter placed upon the Premises, or
the Building as a whole, and Tenant agrees upon demand to execute such further instruments
subordinating this Lease or attorning to the holder of any such liens as Landlord may request. In
the event that any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure is
made for any reason, Tenant shall, if requested by the Mortgagee, attorn to and become the Tenant
of the successor-in-interest to Landlord and in such event Tenant hereby waives its right under any
current or future law which gives or purports to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise
adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of Tenant hereunder. If in connection with
obtaining construction, interim or permanent financing for the Building, the lender shall request
modifications to this Lease as a condition to such financing, Tenant will not withhold or delay its
consent thereto, provided that such modifications do not increase the obligations of Tenant
hereunder and
Page 19
do not otherwise materially adversely affect Tenant’s rights hereunder. In the event that Tenant
should fail to execute any instrument described in this Article 29 promptly as requested, Tenant
hereby irrevocably constitutes Landlord as its attorney-in-fact to execute such instrument in
Tenant’s name, place and stead, it being agreed that such power is one coupled with an interest.
Tenant agrees that it will from time to time within ten (10) business days following a request by
Landlord execute and deliver to such persons as Landlord shall request a statement in recordable
form certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there have been
modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as so modified), stating the dates to
which rent and other charges payable under the Lease have been paid, stating that Landlord is not
in default hereunder (or if Tenant alleges a default stating the nature of such alleged default)
and further stating such other matters as Landlord shall reasonably require. Tenant acknowledges
that any such statement may be relied upon by any Mortgagee, prospective Mortgagee, purchaser or
prospective purchaser of the Building or any interest therein.
ARTICLE 30
LANDLORD’S LIEN
LANDLORD’S LIEN
Tenant hereby grants to Landlord a lien and security interest on all property of Tenant now or
hereafter placed in or upon the Premises, and such property shall be and remain subject to such
lien and security interest of Landlord for payment of all rent and other sums agreed to be paid by
Tenant herein. The provisions of this paragraph relating to such lien and security interest shall
constitute a security agreement under and subject to the Nevada Uniform Commercial Code so that
Landlord shall have and may enforce a security interest on all property of Tenant now or hereafter
placed in or on the Premises, in addition to and cumulative of the Landlord’s liens and rights
provided by law or by the other terms and provisions of this Lease. Tenant agrees to execute as
debtor such financing statement or statements as Landlord now or hereafter may request. Landlord
may at its election at any time file a copy of this Lease as a financing statement.
Notwithstanding the above, Landlord shall neither sell nor withhold from Tenant, Tenant’s business
records.
ARTICLE 31
ATTORNEYS’ FEES
ATTORNEYS’ FEES
If either party commences litigation or arbitration against the other for the specific
performance of any provision of this Lease, for damages for the breach hereof or otherwise for
enforcement of any remedy hereunder, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the
other party such costs and reasonable attorney fees as may have been incurred.
ARTICLE 32
NO IMPLIED WAIVER
NO IMPLIED WAIVER
The failure of Landlord to insist at any time upon the strict performance of any covenant or
agreement herein, or to exercise any option, right, power or remedy contained in this Lease, shall
not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment thereof for the future. No payment by Tenant or
receipt by Landlord of a lesser amount than the monthly installment of Rent due under this Lease
shall be deemed to be other than on account of the earliest Rent due hereunder, nor shall any
endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment as Rent be
deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice
to Landlord’s right to recover the balance of such rent or pursue any other remedy in this Lease
provided.
ARTICLE 33
PERSONAL LIABILITY
PERSONAL LIABILITY
The liability of Landlord to Tenant for any default by Landlord under the terms of
this Lease shall be limited to the lesser of (i) the interest of Landlord in the Building, or (ii)
the interest Landlord would have in said Building if the same were encumbered by third party debt
in an amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the value of said Building (as such value is
determined by Landlord) and Tenant agrees to look solely to such amount for recovery of any
judgment from Landlord, it being intended that Landlord shall not be personally liable for any
judgment or deficiency.
ARTICLE 34
SECURITY DEPOSIT/LETTER OF CREDIT
SECURITY DEPOSIT/LETTER OF CREDIT
As a condition of this Lease, in lieu of a third-party guaranty, Tenant shall, with delivery
of the Lease executed by Tenant, deliver to Landlord an unconditional and irrevocable letter of
credit, in a form approved by Landlord, from a commercial banking institution which is a member of
FDIC with assets of more than $250,000,000.00, approved by Landlord, in the amount of $100,000.00
(“Letter of Credit”) to be held by Landlord as security for the performance by Tenant of all the
covenants and obligations of Tenant set forth in this Lease. Tenant shall submit its proposed form
of Letter of Credit
Page 20
prior to execution of the Lease for Landlord’s review and approval. Tenant acknowledges and
agrees that it shall keep the Letter of Credit in full force and effect throughout the Term of this
Lease (and any extension or renewal thereof) and for thirty (30) days following the end thereof.
In the event the term of the Letter of Credit must be renewed annually, then not less than thirty
(30) days prior to any expiration date of the Letter of Credit (“Renewal Deadline”), Tenant shall
provide Landlord with a replacement Letter of Credit or extension amendment.
Said Letter of Credit shall contain terms whereby it can be drawn on by Landlord at sight on
any date during its term on which issuer shall receive from Landlord a certification signed by
Landlord stating that an Event of Default has occurred by Tenant under this Lease or that Tenant
has failed to provide a replacement Letter of Credit, as required under the Lease. Tenant
acknowledges that the Landlord is the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit and the proceeds thereof
are not the property of the Tenant. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
apply the proceeds against any or all amounts then due and owing by Tenant hereunder and/or against
sums expended by Landlord, including attorneys fees. Such actions by Landlord do not negate
Tenant’s obligations to pay Rental thereafter. Any balance left of the sum received from drawing
on the Letter of Credit, after the curing of defaults and/or the payment of amounts due by Tenant,
shall be held by Landlord, as beneficiary, until the earlier of the replacement of the Letter of
Credit, as required below, or thirty (30) days following the end of the Term of this Lease (and any
extension or renewal thereof).
The original Letter of Credit or any portion of the proceeds which are not utilized by
Landlord for any purpose permitted under this Lease shall be returned to the issuing banking
institution within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term provided Tenant has performed all of
the remaining obligations imposed upon Tenant pursuant to this Lease.
In the event Landlord shall draw on any Letter of Credit provided by Tenant, Tenant shall
replace same no later than thirty (30) days after the date of such drawing and, if same is not
replaced, such failure shall constitute an additional Event of Default under the terms of this
Lease and Landlord shall have the benefit of all remedies permitted pursuant to the terms of this
Lease and the laws of the State where the Premises are located.

CANYONS CENTER
PARKING AGREEMENT
This Parking Agreement is incorporated by reference into that certain Lease Agreement dated as
of ___, 2006 between VENDING DATA CORPORATION as Tenant and XXXXXX XXXXXX
PROPERTIES, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP as Landlord (the “Lease”).
1. Parking Facilities. The parking facilities appurtenant to the Building include
asphalt surface parking with some covered spaces (“Parking Area”). Tenant shall be entitled to use
six (6) vehicle parking spaces within the covered portions of the Parking Area and fifteen (15)
vehicle parking spaces within the uncovered portions of the Parking Area for the monthly parking of
Tenant’s employees. Tenant’s use of the Parking Area shall be based upon a non-exclusive use in
common with Landlord, other tenants of the Building, and their guests and invitees. Tenant shall
not use more parking spaces than said number, or any spaces (a) which have been specifically
assigned by Landlord to other tenants or for such other uses as visitor parking or (b) which have
been designated by governmental entities of competent jurisdiction as being restricted to certain
uses. Landlord reserves the right to erect such security and access and egress control devices as
it may reasonably deem to be appropriate (including, without limitation card controlled gates) and
Tenant agrees to cooperate fully with Landlord in such matters. Tenant shall not permit or allow
any vehicles that belong to or are controlled by Tenant or Tenant’s employees, suppliers, shippers,
customers, or invitees to be loaded, unloaded, or parked in areas other than those designated by
Landlord for such activities. If Tenant permits or allows any of such prohibited activities, then
Landlord shall have the right, without notice, in addition to such other rights and remedies that
it may have, to remove or tow away the vehicle involved and charge the cost to Tenant, which cost
shall be immediately payable upon demand by Landlord.
2. Parking Fee. Tenant shall pay, throughout the entire Term, an amount equal to the
number of parking spaces Tenant is entitled to use times the applicable fees (the “Parking Fees”)
which Landlord is charging for use of the parking facilities. Currently, Landlord is charging
Forty and 00/100 Dollars ($40.00) per space per month for covered parking and Zero Dollars ($0.00)
per space per month for uncovered parking. Landlord shall have the right from time to time to
increase the Parking Fees being charged Tenant upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, which
Parking Fees shall in no event exceed the rates then being charged for parking in comparable
parking areas having a comparable method of operation. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that Tenant
shall be obligated to pay such rates regardless of whether or not Tenant actually uses or needs the
parking spaces which Tenant is entitled to use. Such Parking Fees shall be payable monthly
commencing with the first installment of Base Rent due under the Lease. If the Commencement Date
is other than the first day of a calendar month, the first installment of the Parking Fees shall be
prorated on the basis of a thirty (30) day calendar month.
3. Definitions. All capitalized terms contained in this Parking Agreement that are
not defined herein shall have the same definition as set forth in the Lease.

design, construction or installation of, various nonstructural items which Tenant may find
desirable for the Premises including, without limitation, furniture, trade fixtures, office
equipment, telephone, telecommunications and data equipment and systems, plantscaping, artwork or
cabling required in connection with any of these items. Notwithstanding the fact that Landlord’s
architects and engineers shall have the right to review Tenant’s Preliminary Space Plans and
Tenant’s Final Plans, Tenant shall be solely responsible for the design and function of such plans,

All Tenant Improvements, whether or not the cost thereof is covered by the Allowance, shall become
the property of Landlord upon expiration or earlier termination of the Lease and shall remain on
the Premises at all times during the Lease Term. Tenant shall be entitled to no other payment or
rent reduction for any part of the Allowance not utilized by Tenant. The Allowance must be

thereof is not utilized within such time period Tenant shall forfeit its right to receive the
unpaid portion of the Allowance whether or not the Tenant Improvements have been completed, and
Landlord shall have no obligation to make payment thereof.
In

assigned, conveyed or transferred to another entity or to the surviving corporation in connection
with a merger, consolidation or acquisition of Tenant (other than Tenant’s parent, subsidiary or
affiliate), Tenant shall be required to repay Landlord, upon demand, a portion of the Allowance

Landlord of construction of the Tenant Improvements.
3.3 As promptly as practicable following Landlord’s approval of the Final Plans, Landlord
shall submit to Tenant a written estimate of Work Costs of all Tenant Improvements. Thereupon,
Tenant shall either approve the estimate or disapprove specific items and submit to Landlord
revisions of Final Plans to reflect the deletion of and/or substitution for such disapproved items.
Any such deletions and/or substitutions to the Final Plans will be processed in accordance with
Section 3.8 below. Upon Tenant’s final written approval of said estimate, such approved estimate
to be referred to herein as the “Work Costs Estimate”, Landlord shall have the right to purchase
materials as set forth on the Final Plans and to commence the construction of the items included in
said Work Costs Estimate pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
3.4 The parties acknowledge that Landlord has “pre-stocked” certain Building Standards
improvement items for use in the Building, which items must be used by Tenant for construction of
the Tenant Improvements.
3.5 If the Final Plans or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto shall require changes in
the Base Building Improvements, the increased cost of the Base Building Improvements caused by such
changes shall be charged as Work Costs. The cost thereof shall include all direct architectural
and/or engineering fees and expenses in connection therewith.
3.6 Landlord’s written estimate of Work Costs shall include a reasonable contingency to allow
for changes in the Tenant Improvements and/or other unforeseen costs and expenses arising after
Tenant’s approval thereof.
3.7 In the event that the Work Costs Estimate exceeds the Allowance, Tenant shall pay one
hundred percent (100%) of such excess (“Over Allowance”) to Landlord within ten (10) days after
Tenant’s approval of the Work Costs Estimate; provided, however, Landlord shall not be required to
commence construction of the Tenant Improvements until Landlord receives the Over-Allowance.
3.8 Any changes to the approved Final Plans (“Changes”) which are requested by Tenant or
required by any governmental agency shall be forwarded to Landlord for approval and costing. If
Landlord approves of the Changes, Tenant shall be given a written cost estimate for the completion
of said Changes which must be approved by Tenant prior to construction of the Changes. Landlord
shall pay the cost of the Changes to the extent of any remaining Allowance and to the extent the
revised contract amount exceeds the Allowance, Tenant shall pay the cost of the Changes as an
